County council to cast net in GOP pool for interim controller

Walter Griffith will officially resign his position today
JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES
jandes@timesleader.com
Walter Grifth will stop being Luzerne Countys controller at 10:59 a.m. today, and county ofcials plan to publicly seek someone to serve until his term expires the end of this year.
Controllers ofce senior auditor Patricia Llewellyn will serve as acting controller until council selects Grifths replacement, council Chairman Tim McGinley said Tuesday. Grifths abrupt resignation and withdrawal Tuesday from the November ballot in the
controllers race are believed by many to be part of a plea agreement for felony wiretapping charges led against him, but Grifth said his lawyer has advised him against discussing the charges. His resignation and election withdrawal paperwork were
terse and did not specify any reasons for his decision. Grifth expected county ofcials to keep Llewellyn in his post the rest of the year because the home rule charter Griffith requires the controller to designate an employee to exercise the controllers powers and duties when the
ofceholder is unable to serve, and she was his choice. But county Chief Solicitor C. David Pedri said this charter section clearly states controller designees serve in a temporary absence or incapacity. Pedri directed council to other charter provisions outlin-
ing the procedure that must be followed if the controller resigns after completing 18 months of a term. Council must rst declare the seat vacant, which will happen at Tuesdays council meeting, McGinley said. If council does not select a replacement within 60 days See CONTROLLER | 12A

Leightons salary a savings to school district

As new hire, Brian Leighton to receive salary of $41,365, about half of outgoing employee
MARK GUYDISH

DETAILS
LOTTERY
DAILY NUMBER - 9-2-2 BIG 4 - 6-0-7-7 QUINTO - 5-9-3-3-4 TREASURE HUNT
WILKES-BARRE When the Wilkes-Barre Area School Board hired Brian Leighton as a home and school visitor last week, controversy arose when the minority complained he was not recommended by the interview committee, which includes no board members and on
the fact that he was the brother of Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton. Speculation soon developed regarding Brian Leightons unannounced salary as well. While the question of following policy remains unresolved, the salary debate is, at least for now, a done deal. Brian Leighton was hired under the teachers contract at a base salary for a rst-year person with a
bachelors degree: $41,365. Its one of the highest starting salaries for teachers in Luzerne County, but its still a big savings over the pay for the retiree being replaced, Stanley Pohutsky, with an annual salary of $80,001. Thats the second highest salary a teacher in the district can make, after at least 15 years experience and earning 54 college credits beyond a masters degree. Brian Leighton gets the base salary despite more than 20 years as an adult probation ofcer with Luzerne County
because only years with the district typically count in placing an employee on the districts step/column salary matrix. Step refers to pay for years of service, and Wilkes-Barre Areas rst step is higher than most because the step doesnt increase every year. Under the current contract, Brian Leighton will get a raise next year to $45,798, and will stay there for three years before the next step raise $50,741. He could, however, get different column increases, which are based on increased college education.
Pohutskys nal-year compensation cost the district $107,736, including $3,060 for Social Security, $6,712 for pension, $486 for workers compensation insurance, $17,297 for medical insurance and $120 for life insurance. Brian Leightons total compensation for the rst year is estimated at $54,063, with respective costs of $1,265, $2,801, $251, $8,261 and $120. The teachers contract is expired and a new one is being negotiated, so amounts of raises could change.

Website shows alleged Sandusky prison letters

Centre Daily Times
MATT CARROLL
The celebrity gossip website TMZ has released two letters it claims were written from behind bars by convicted pedophile and former assistant Penn State football coach Jerry Sandusky. The letters, dated May and June, may offer a glimpse into Sanduskys daily routine and thought process as he sits in solitary connement in a western Pennsylvania prison, serving what is essentially a life sentence. Its not clear to whom the letters were addressed, as TMZ blacked out the names of the recipients. When reached for comment, Joe Amendola, Sanduskys trial attorney, said he could not verify whether Sandusky wrote the responses. Im doing alright up and down; battling hard, Sandusky allegedly
wrote in the letters obtained by TMZ. Sandusky wrote in the May letter that his days consist of exercise, meditation, reading and writing. He said he has been quite conned. Later adding, it is very challenging. He doesnt go into detail about his conviction for sexually Sandusky abusing 10 young boys, sometimes on the Penn State campus. Sandusky, who is serving 30 to 60 years in state prison, has maintained his innocence. In the letters, he wrote he is trying to get better. The battles will continue until the last whistle, Sandusky wrote. Im grateful for the help and support. I must also ght my personal battles
to learn from, grow from, and endure the circumstances. Sandusky at one point appears to express apprehension over the prospects of having his conviction overturned. An appeal is in process, but I dont know what to think, he wrote in the June letter. I would feel better if we could reveal all the information and unfairness. Sandusky said he has been receiving many letters of support and motivation, and in his June letter made a vague mention of a lady from Oregon who has taken interest in his case and has been writing about it. Our challenge is to get some impact out of (her writing), Sandusky wrote. She is also working to get the support of some knowledgeable people who understand what she has done.
WASHINGTON The Justice Department has led the rst criminal charges in the deadly attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya, news reports said Tuesday. CNN, NBC News and The Wall Street Journal reported unspecied counts had been led and sealed in the September 2012 attack that killed Ambassador Chris Stevens and three other Americans. CNN said the charges named Ahmed Abu Khattalah, a Libyan militia leader. The Journal said charges were led against more than one person. The departments investigation is ongoing. It has been, and remains, a top priority, said Justice Department spokesman Andrew C. Ames, who declined to comment further. A key Republican urged the administration to do more than le charges. Osama bin Laden had been criminally charged long before the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks but was not apprehended, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., the chairman of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee, said in a statement. U.S. Navy SEALS killed bin Laden in Pakistan on May 2, 2011. Delays in apprehending the suspected Benghazi killers, Issa added, will only put American lives at further and needless risk. The Associated Press reported in May that American ofcials had identied ve men who might be responsible for the Sept. 11, 2012, attack in Benghazi that
occurred just weeks before President Barack Obamas re-election. The FBI released photos of three of the ve suspects, asking the public to provide more information on the men pictured. The images were captured by security cameras at the U.S. diplomatic post during the attack, but it took weeks for the FBI to see and study them. The FBI and other U.S. intelligence agencies identied the men through contacts in Libya and by monitoring their communications. They are thought to be members of Ansar al-Shariah, the Libyan militia group whose ghters were seen near the U.S. diplomatic facility prior to the violence. Waiting to prosecute the suspects instead of grabbing them now could add to the political burden the Benghazi case already has placed on Obama and Democrats who want to succeed him in 2016. Since Obamas reelection, Republicans in Congress have condemned the administrations handling of the matter, criticizing the level of embassy security and questioning the talking points provided to U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice for her public explanation of the attack. Conservatives have suggested that the White House tried to play down the incident to minimize its effect on the presidents campaign. Republicans also have taken political aim at Hillary Rodham Clinton, who was secretary of state at the time of the attack and is a possible Democratic presidential contender in 2016.

COURT BRIEFS
WILKES-BARRE A Hazleton woman serving a sentence for allegedly causing a car accident in April 2012 that injured three people was sentenced to a prison term Monday on charges she violated her probation by assaulting workers at the Hazleton General Hospital. Terri Krouse, 28, of Alter Street, appeared for a probation violation hearing in county court, where Judge Lesa Gelb re-sentenced Krouse to time served to one year in the county prison and one year probation. Krouse was originally charged with three counts of reckless endangerment and one count of having an improper child restraint after a vehicle accident in April 2012. Krouse pleaded guilty to the charges in April and was sentenced one month later to two years probation. Prosecutors say Krouse violated that probationary sentence when she was arrested on July 4 for assaulting two workers at the Hazleton General Hospital and was in a highly intoxicated state. Gelb said Krouse would be immediately released from the prison pending any other detainers and must participate in the countys Day Reporting Center. WILKES-BARRE A Blakeslee man charged with dragging a Freeland borough police officer 100 feet, which resulted in the officer receiving a head injury, will undergo a competency evaluation before it is determined if he will stand trial on related charges. Michael Mokshefski, 29, was scheduled to stand trial this week on eight charges relating to the February 2012 incident. Attorneys in the case said Mokshefskis competency will be evaluated and his trial remains pending the outcome of that evaluation. State police charged Mokshefski with aggravated assault and other charge after he allegedly dragged a police officer with his pickup truck on Ridge Street. Officer Matthew Williams was flown by helicopter to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center, Plains Township, where he was treated for head injuries and released. Williams was interviewing Mokshefski in his Jeep Comanche while investigating a disturbance on Ridge Street and asked the driver to turn off the ignition, state police said. When Williams reached in and tried to turn off the ignition, Mokshefski drove away, state police said. Mokshefski was apprehended near Effort, where he got out of his Jeep and fled into a wooded area along state Route 940, police said. WILKES-BARRE A man who pleaded guilty in March 2007 to a corruption of minors charge stated that should not have to register his address under Megans Law because a plea agreement does not specifically say he is required to register. Traian Jovanov, 28, with a last known address of Pine Street, Hazleton, said in court papers filed Tuesday making the request through his attorney, Tom Marsilio. In March 2007, Jovanov was sentenced to 40 to 80 months in prison on an unrelated escape charge and two years house arrest on the corruption of minors charge. Police said Jovanov had inappropriate contact with a juvenile female in April 2006. Marsilio wrote that nothing at the time required his client to register under Megans Law, but that now the county probation office is requiring Jovanov to do so. Senior Judge Chester Muroski scheduled a hearing for Sept. 17. SCRANTON A WilkesBarre man has agreed to plead guilty for his alleged role in altering currency with bleach to change their value amount. Fabian Forbes and his girlfriend, Brittany Ann Danko, of Wilkes-Barre, were initially charged by the U.S. Secret Service in June with conspiracy and distribution of counterfeit obligations. Under a negotiated plea deal, the U.S. Attorneys Office on Tuesday filed an information against Forbes charging him with conspiracy to which he has agreed to plead guilty. According to the information, Forbes and conspirators bleached $1 bills from December 2012 through June and scanned older $100 bills. The scanned $100 bills were then scanned onto bleached $1 bills to make counterfeit hundreds. The information alleges Forbes and conspirators distributed the counterfeits at various retailers. In April, Forbes and conspirators purchased a genuine $100 bill from another person in exchange for 10 counterfeit $100 bills, according to the information. A U.S. District Court judge must accept the plea deal between Forbes and federal prosecutors. He could face up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. Danko is facing charges of conspiracy and distribution of counterfeit money in federal court.
WILKES-BARRE A tentative June 2014 trial date has been set for a federal lawsuit filed by Luzerne Countys former election bureau director against the county and its manager, alleging he was terminated because he wasnt politically affiliated. In court papers filed last month, U.S. District Judge Richard Conaboy said Leonard Piazzas lawsuit is tentatively scheduled for the June 2, 2014, trial list. Conaboy said that within the next four months hell schedule a conference for attorneys. The suit requests more than $75,000 and that Piazza be reinstated as the countys election bureau director. Piazza had been placed on administrative leave beginning April 5, 2012, apparently due to his decision to audit the campaign finance reports of county Controller Walter Griffith. Piazza was terminated six days later. Piazza alleges in his suit he was terminated because he was not politically affiliated with Griffith.

PUC hearing held on Pennsylvania American Water Co. request for 10.1 percent increase
ROGER DUPUIS
rdupuis@civitasmedia.com
Wednesday, August 7, 2013 PAGE 3A
IN BRIEF
Water rate hike request criticized

SCRANTON Not out of ratepayers pockets. That was the message from nine customers and two state legislators Tuesday at a state Public Utility Commission hearing into a proposed rate increase by Pennsylvania American Water Co. Kingston resident Brian Shiner was the only Luzerne County resident who spoke out against the water companys request, which would result in an average 11.7 percent bill increase for Northeast Pennsylvania customers as a means of raising money to fund improvements to the system statewide. Shiner took aim at what he sees as excessive executive compensation at the utility companys Shiner parent, New Jerseybased American Water, saying documents show that President and CEO Jeff Sterba is paid nearly $3.8 million, while several other officials are paid more than $1 million. I think they should divert some of that to the pipes, Shiner said. The company has 140,000 customers in Lackawanna and Luzerne counties, officials have said. The commission scheduled the hearings a month after it voted 5-0 June 13 to investigate the companys request, which proposes an annual increase in revenues of $58.8 million, or 10.1 percent. Each of the companys water divisions has a different rate increase. Effect in Luzerne County For Luzerne County customers, who are part of the companys Main Division, the typical residential customer using 47,520 gallons annually would see the bill would increase from $630.12 to $703.56 annually a $73.44 increase if the commission approves the request as presented. In 2011, the state approved a rate increase for the water company of 6.3 percent, which resulted in $36 million in additional annual revenue. In its rate increase filing, Pennsylvania American Water said it has invested about $731 million in capital improvements since the 2011 rate increase, including upgrades to treatment plants and pumping stations, as well as the replacement of about 300 miles of aging pipe. Shiner took exception to the need for another rate increase just two years later, on top of voters approval in 2008 of a $400 million bond issue for water and sewer upgrades. Seth Mendelsohn, corporate counsel for the water company, said he understood the bond money could not be used by investor-owned utilities, such as Pennsylvania American Water, but only by municipal utilities. Shiner and Mendelsohn then disagreed over whether
The recently reopened Kmart store at the Mark Plaza in Edwardsville.
A lawsuit led last month in Luzerne County Court by the Kmart Corp. alleging it is owed millions of dollars in damages its Edwardsville store suffered has been transferred to federal court. Attorneys for Mark Plaza Fifty and Acadia Realty Trust led court papers Monday notifying county court that the case has beenled in the U.S. DistrictCourt for the Middle District of Pennsylvania. In the suit, Kmart alleges it is owed more than $9 million after the Mark Plaza Fifty, a subsidiary of Acadia Realty Trust, failed to take preventative measures to ensure the building would not be ooded. According the the complaint, the store was damaged in oods from 1972 to 2011. Mark Fifty Plaza and the realty company failed to ensure the store would be protected from future oods, the suit says, failed to notify Kmart of potential ooding and failed to pay for repairs and damaged merchandise.

WILKES-BARRE
the water company had, in fact, received bond proceeds in other parts of the state. Either way, the consensus among speakers was that elderly and other cash-strapped customers shouldnt have to bear the cost of improvements rather, that the firm should reinvest its own profits in upgrade work. Two legislators spoke, state Rep. Kevin Haggerty, D-Dunmore, and Marty Flynn, D-Scranton. Flynn said he did not question the need for improvements to an aging system, but objected to the money being raised off the broken backs of customers. This corporation has substantial room to invest its own capital, Flynn said. The PUC must stand up for taxpayers.
Police said Tuesday a woman and two men in a white Dodge Durango tried to abduct a 7-year-old boy on Saturday. The incident occurred in the 300 block of Beade Street when a white woman driving the Dodge approached the boy at about 8:37 p.m. Two black men were in the rear seat, police said. The occupants asked the boy to get into their vehicle and go for a ride. The boy ran to his mother and the woman drove away at a high rate of speed. The mother was a few feet away from her son when the occupants of the Dodge asked the boy to get in. Anyone with information about the attempted abduction or the vehicle is asked to call Plymouth police at 779-2147 or 911.

Community celebrates a Night Out

JON OCONNELL PLAINS TWP. Magician Pat Ward brought plenty of gasps by seemingly taking off a rosycheeked 10-year-old girls head with a phony guillotine, but the Wilkes-Barre Police Departments police dog wrangling a real human in a demonstration drew the biggest crowd Tuesday at the Plains Township Police Departments National Night Out event. The Night Out strengthens the community effort to prevent crime, said Plains Crime Watch veteran Len Kalinoski. The biggest thing is just getting everyone together, Kalinoski said. Its the eyes and the ears. He waved to hundreds around the school grounds eating free food, getting their faces painted and watching magic tricks. National Night Out is a 30-year-0ld event held around the country on the second Tuesday in August. Area police work with other law enforcement personnel to get to know their communities. Plains Township officer Tim Minnick has coordinated the event for the past five years. Unofficially, people say the townships event is known as the biggest Night Out in Luzerne County, Minnick said. The event helps the communitys residents get in touch with their police and emergency workers; it helps them learn what to expect in an emergency, he said. A Life Flight helicopter circled overhead. It had stopped at the Night Out so its crew could show those interested how someone is airlifted if ground transportation is not sufficient. As the years go on, I come here and, more and more, people know who I am and who the officers are, Minnick said, which is really the crux of the event. But its wrapped up like a festival to create a draw for the neighborhood.

Boy Scout Troop 100 from Plains Township set up its pinewood derby track for children to test their skill building race cars from Lego building blocks. Scout Tim Mykulyn, 13, manned the start lever for the track and said he thinks Legos are a great way to show how a derby works without using power tools. Mykulyn proudly said he and his fellow Scouts teach younger Cub Scouts how to call 911 should they witness a break-in. We tell them to lock the doors, too, he said. Near the lined ambulances and firetrucks, Plains Township police displayed special operations firearms and protective gear they use for high-risk calls. Attendees were able to get a close-up look at tactical vests and riot shields, field tools such as bolt cutters and battering rams, and non-standard assault-style guns used in real emergencies.

Judgment filed against Waterfront Professional Park

BILL OBOYLE
boboyle@timesleader.com
PLAINS TWP. Ross Spengler, managing partner at Waterfront Professional Park, said his corporations mortgage didnt go into default rather it matured, forcing a market search for a new bank to borrow $6.5 million. Thats not an easy task, Spengler said Tuesday, the day after documents were filed at the Luzerne County Courthouse claiming the Waterfront Professional Park on River Street in Plains Township has defaulted on its $7.1 million mortgage. According to the filing, a loan default judgment was filed against
the complex by C&I Solutions II, a limited liability company headquartered in Delaware that assumed control of the mortgage from First National Community Bank in December. When our mortgage came due, the bank didnt want to renew it; they wouldnt re-write the paper, Spengler explained. He said the note was sold to C&I Solutions at a discounted rate, but the corporations monthly mortgage payment went from $45,000 to $72,000. Thats why were trying to refinance with a new bank, Spengler said. But it could take 30 to 45 days to get it done. Spengler said he and partner
Robert Care have directed their attorneys to contact C&I to work out an understanding. He said that dialogue has already begun. Spengler said hes not worried about losing the property and the attorneys will re-open the judgment if need be. According to the court documents, C&I is also seeking $641,611.33 in attorneys fees, bringing the total judgment sought to more than $7.6 million. The complaint filed on behalf of C&I contends Waterfront breached and violated the terms of the note by failing to timely pay required payments. Spengler said Waterfront Professional Park LLC secured the
FNCB loan in 2002 for three parcels of property that comprise the complex that leases space to several businesses, including the River Grille and Commonwealth Health. Spengler said he closed his banquet facility in October to redesign the space to accommodate Commonwealth Health. According to Luzerne County Tax Claim Bureau records, Waterfront Professional Park LLC, owes back taxes on two properties on the complex one for $76,610.58 and the other for $920.92. We have an agreement with the Tax Claim Bureau, and we pay $5,000 per month to pay back those taxes, Spengler said.

Proposal calls for replacing Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac with system reliant on private sector

Obama pitches overhaul of mortgage financing

cent from the low point in 2011. Despite the nationwide gains, the president said sweeping housing reforms are still needed to ensure that a rejuvenated market doesnt simply re-inate the housing bubble. The cornerstone of that effort is winding down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, a proposal with bipartisan support in the Senate. For too long, these companies were allowed to make big prots buying mortgages, knowing that if their bets went bad, taxpayers would be left holding the bag, Obama told a crowd of more than 2,000 at an area high school. He spoke after a tour of a construction company that has been able to hire hundreds of new workers as a result of the regions housing comeback. Although the president has previously endorsed overhauling Fannie and Freddie, his remarks Tuesday marked the rst time he outlined his specic priorities for doing so. The president wants to replace Fannie and Freddie with a system that would put the private sector, not the government, primarily at risk for loans. The government would still be involved, both in oversight and as a last-resort loan guarantor. Obama is also seeking guarantees that a private sectorled mortgage nance system would still ensure wide homeowner access to popular 30-year mortgages at xed rates. Making light of criticism from Republicans who have cast him as a big-spending liberal, Obama joked that his calls for deeper private sector involvement must sound confusing to the folks who call me a socialist.

Second Pres. Bush has heart procedure

Former President George W. Bush has successfully undergone a heart procedure after doctors discovered a blockage in an artery. Bush spokesman Freddy Ford says a stent was inserted during a procedure Tuesday at Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital in Dallas. The blockage was discovered Monday during Bushs annual physical at the Cooper Clinic in Dallas, where the nations 43rd president lives. Ford says the blockage was opened with no complications. He says the 67-year-old Bush is expected to be discharged today. Ford described Bush as being in high spirits and eager to return home. Bush plans to resume his normal schedule Thursday.

PHOENIX Buoyed by an improving housing market, President Barack Obama on Tuesday proposed a broad overhaul of the nations mortgage nance system, including winding down government-backed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. He declared that taxpayers should never again be left holding the bag for the mortgage giants bad bets. Obama outlined his proposals in Phoenix, the once foreclosure-riddled city at the epicenter of the nations housing crisis. The housing market in Phoenix, as well as in many other parts of the country, has rebounded robustly, with prices in the southwestern city up 66 per-

priorities are largely in line with a Senate measure shepherded by Republican Sen. Bob Corker of Tennessee and Democratic Sen. Mark Warner of Virginia. That legislation would wind down Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac within ve years. Once ourishing, Fannie and Freddie were bailed out
in 2008 by a $187 billion taxpayer-backed bailout. The two enterprises dont make loans directly, but buy mortgages from lenders, package them as bonds, guarantee them against default and sell them to investors. The enterprises currently own or guarantee half of all U.S. mortgages and back nearly 90 percent of new ones.

A military judge has reduced Army Pfc. Bradley Mannings maximum possible sentence in the WikiLeaks case to 90 years in prison. Manning had faced up to 136 years in prison after he was convicted of charges related to his disclosure of classied information to the anti-secrecy website. But the judge, Army Col. Denise Lind, found during his sentencing hearing Tuesday that a number of the charges refer to the same actions and therefore were duplicative for sentencing purposes. Manning was convicted at his courtmartial of 20 counts. His defense attorneys had argued that some of the counts amounted to multiple convictions for a single act.

Report: Childhood obesity rates fall in 18 states

Pa., however, among 3 states with gains
MIKE STOBBE AP Medical Writer ATLANTA A new government report is the rst evidence of a national decline in childhood obesity, health ofcials said Tuesday. In 18 states, there were at least slight declines in obesity for low-income preschoolers. Previous national statistics show obesity rates have been rising for decades and recently were essentially at, although some places have reported improvements, such as Philadelphia and New York City and the state of Mississippi. But the report from the Centers for Disease and Control Prevention shows signs of a widerranging improvement. Now, for the rst time, were seeing a signicant decrease in childhood obesity nationally, said Dr. Thomas Frieden, CDC director. Still, 1 in 8 preschoolers are obese in the United States, and its even more common in black and Hispanic kids. Preschoolers who are overweight or obese are ve times more likely than other children to be heavy as adults, which means greater risks of high cholesterol, high blood sugar, asthma and even mental health problems. The new studys data comes from measurements of the height and weight of nearly 12 million low-income children in 40 states. The children were ages 2, 3 and 4. Its harder to get national data on preschoolers of more afuent families, so its not clear if the trend applies to all young children. But experts note that low-income kids tend to be heavier. The biggest declines were in Florida, Georgia, Missouri, New Jersey and South Dakota. Each saw their obesity numbers fall at least 1 percentage point. Despite the improvements, the numbers are still disappointing. Hawaii was the best, with about 9 percent of lowincome preschoolers estimated to be obese in 2011. California was worst, at nearly 17 percent. Ten states were not included; some had changed how they track height and weight. One of the missing states is Texas, which has one of the largest populations of low-income children and is known to have a signicant problem with childhood obesity. Of the remaining 40 states, 18 showed at least slight improvement and 19 had no signicant change. Three Colorado, Pennsylvania and Tennessee increased.
A young child drowned and dozens of people were out of their homes after ash ooding hit south-central Missouri. Pulaski County Sheriff Ron Long says the childs body was found early Tuesday near Mitchell Creek on the west side of Waynesville. The child was between 4 and 6 years old. Long says he isnt sure of the victims gender. Rescuers also are looking for missing people, but Long did not say how many are missing. Local ofcials estimate 50 or more homes were ooded in Waynesville after the Mitchell and Robidoux creeks rose rapidly. Several inches of rain fell in the area since midnight.

SANAA, Yemen A suspected U.S. drone killed four alleged al-Qaida members Tuesday in Yemen, as the U.S. and British embassies evacuated staff amid reports of a threatened attack by the terrorist group. As Yemen bolstered security by sending tanks and troops into the streets of Sanaa, the capital of the impoverished country, militants shot down an army helicopter, killing all eight people aboard, the government said. Yemeni authorities have suggested there were al-Qaida threats in recent days to multiple potential targets in the country, which has been

Among those sites were foreign installations and government ofces in the capital of Sanaa as well as to the strategic Bab al-Mandeb straits at the entrance to the Red Sea in the southern Arabian Peninsula.

CAMPBELLTON, New Brunswick A 100-pound python blamed in the strangling deaths of two Canadian boys apparently escaped from its pet store enclosure, slithered through a ventilation system and fell through the ceiling into the room where the young brothers were sleeping, the shop owner said Tuesday. A snake expert said it was possible that the python was spooked and simply clung to whatever it landed on. Police are treating the deaths as a criminal investigation. Autopsies on Noah Barthe, 5, and his brother Connor Barthe, 7, were being performed Tuesday. They had been visiting the apartment of a friend above an exotic pet store in Campbellton, New Brunswick, said Royal Canadian Mounted Police Const. Julie Rogers-Marsh. Rogers-Marsh said the snake apparently escaped during the night and made its way into the apartment through the ventilation system. A friend of the boys was sleeping in another room and was unharmed, she said. The pet store owner, JeanClaude Savoie, told the Global News television station that he didnt hear a sound and discovered the horric scene when he went into his living room, where the two boys had been sleeping, on Monday morning. I cant believe this is real, Savoie said. The boys were the children of his best friend and were often at his apartment to visit his son, Savoie said. The python, which he has had for at least 10 years, had been kept alone in its enclosure and was not handled by anyone else, he added. Police said the snake has been killed by a veterinarian. The snake was about 4.7 yards long, RCMP Sgt. Alain Tremblay said. He said police were looking at whether the store followed the provinces regulations on exotic animals. Its a criminal investigation, Tremblay said. Were going to look at all avenues. The RCMPs Major Crime Unit is continuing the investigation, with the assistance of a reptile expert from the Magnetic Hill Zoo in Moncton, New Brunswick. The towns deputy mayor, Ian Comeau, said the Reptile Ocean shop was licensed to operate and everything was according to our bylaws, to the provincial guidelines. He said he saw alligators, crocodiles and snakes when he toured the shop with the re department about two years ago.

Suspect
From page 1A two men and shot in the leg during the scufe, ofcials said. I wish I killed more of them! Newell shouted when state Trooper Nicolas De La Iglesia arrived on the scene before 8 p.m., according to the troopers afdavit. Two men died at the scene and the third, Ross Township zoning ofcer David Fleetwood, died after being own to Lehigh Valley Medical Center. Fleetwood, 62, also served as a supervisor in nearby Chestnuthill Township, the coroner said. Ofcials identied the slain residents as Gerard J. Kozic, 53, and James V. LaGuardia, 64, both of Saylorsburg. At the hospital an hour later, Newell told police he had gone to the meeting in hopes of nding the township ofcials in one place. He intended to shoot the solicitor and supervisors and thought that he would then be killed, police said in some neighbors. When I found out about the shooting, we all looked at each other and said his name, said Doll, 58, who has lived in her house for more than 30 years. We certainly always hoped that he would have never done something like this. About 15 to 18 people had been at the meeting, including a Pocono Record reporter covering his rst Ross Township meeting. The thing that got my attention: plaster ying out, blowing out through the walls. Witnesses would later tell me they saw pictures exploding away from the walls, reported Chris Reber said in an account to his editors. In June, the newspaper published an article describing an 18-year ght between the township and Newell over his property, which includes an old camper lled with wooden pallets, a leaning garage close to collapse and a propane tank inside an old dog house. Township supervisors voted in February 2012 to take legal action against Newell for alleged zoning and sewer regulations. In October, he set up a fundraising page online to try to raise $10,000 for legal fees. Ross township took me to court & the court ruled I have to vacate my home of 20 years, Newell wrote on the page. He said he lived on $600 a month in Social Security benets and had no money to clean his property. Newell told the newspaper he was unemployed for years after an injury from a crash and had nowhere else to go. The state Department of Environmental Protection had ordered Newell in March to stop dredging on the property and restore the creek. He wasnt happy about the situation, but he was cooperative, department spokeswoman Colleen Connolly recalled. Newell didnt enter a plea at his arraignment on three homicide counts and two counts each of attempted homicide and aggravated assault. He was given a form for a public defender, but he did not request a lawyer. A preliminary hearing was scheduled for Aug. 19. Newells father told WFMZ-TV that his son had been talking about shooting township ofcials for a while and as recently as Monday. Pete Newell said on the day of the shooting, his son told him he had no reason to live. Its no excuse for murder but they pushed him to his point, he said of the long battle to evict his son from the property. Russell Kresge, a township supervisor who lives down the road from Newell and attended Monday nights meeting, found it difcult to discuss what happened. This is a little township that always ran super, he said from his front porch, a friendly Rottweiler by his side. Kresges wife said the dog could sense something was wrong with her master and was shedding abnormally.

in the afdavit. Newell was about to re his .44 Magnum revolver when the townships parks and recreation director, Bernie Kozen, and resident Mark Kresh wrestled him to the ground, Monroe County Coroner Bob Allen
said at a news conference. Two very courageous individuals positioned themselves in a way that they were able to jump on this subject as he came through the door, State Police Lt. Col. George Bivens said. This could
have been much worse. The two survivors were released from the hospital, along with Newell. Terry Doll, who lives near Newell, said he was well-known as a kook, an intelligent man whose unpredictability stoked fear
Safety
From page 1A Conrad, who said that without a local police force or security at the township meetings, ofcials and residents in attendance are sitting ducks for any person with wants to harm them. Its troublesome, Conrad said, adding this sort of incident has been in the back of her mind for years. She said she will talk to fellow supervisors about the possibility of hiring an armed constable to attend meetings. Some meetings protected Ron Filippini, a Plains Township commissioner, said the Monroe County incident spurred the board to have an armed township police ofcer attend Thursday nights meeting and it might become a permanent request. Thats the norm in other municipalities including Wilkes-Barre, Nuangola, Swoyersville, Shickshinny, Wyoming and elsewhere. Maryanne Petrilla, a former Luzerne County commissioner who now serves as manager in Butler Township, said a township police ofcer is at each monthly meeting. She said theres always a concern because the day-to-day realities of keeping laws and ordinances enforced anger some constituents. Petrilla said sometimes decisions or actions lead to making irate people verbally attack ofcials. What happened in Monroe County, she said, was taking it to the extreme. Property disputes are common in townships, she said, and when the municipality has to step in, those involved are pegged as bad guys. Hopefully, this will make a person calm down and realize that no property or neighborhood dispute is worth going to this extreme, Petrilla said. Al Lackulonis, president of Duryea Borough Council, said the chief of police is at all meetings. Am I going to be more afraid? No. Am I going to be more aware? No. I think Im already pretty aware, Lackulonis said, noting he tries to scan the room during council meetings to gauge whos there, the facial expressions and any suspicious movements. Conrad: Fear factor Conrad said the fear that will seep into the minds of ofcials and residents attending municipal or school board meetings could steer good people from running for these positions, and thats disappointing. For a paycheck of $75 per month the going rate in many townships for supervisors Conrad said the reward is not worth the risk. To serve on council is his civic duty Lackulonis said, and these sorts of incidents shouldnt discourage people from performing those duties. In Wilkes-Barre, the countys largest municipality, city council meetings are sometimes unruly but always attended by armed police ofcers. Sometimes they are asked to step in to remove attendees from chambers. Drew McLaughlin, Wilkes-Barres municipal affairs manager, said police attending meetings on a regular basis began shortly after the January 2011 shooting in Arizona of U.S. Rep. Gabrielle Giffords, her staff and constituents, though ofcers were asked to attend meetings previously when contentious matters arose. In recent years, we have taken proactive steps to ensure the safety of everyone attending a city council meeting. We will continue to have police ofcers present for public meetings to mitigate any safety risks. We take our responsibility to protect those people exercising their constitutional rights very seriously, said Mayor Tom Leighton. Public service by its very nature invites criticism and dissent. There are very important scal and policy decisions that are made here, which have a realworld impact upon peoples lives and property. You will always have people who disagree with those decisions, but it is essential for a healthy democracy, and society, for those disagreements to be aired through civil discourse and not violent acts, Leighton said in an emailed statement. Filippini said he will continue to act in the interest of the township and put any worries about his own safety to the side. You cant let it affect you, he said.

and discover Israel in the U.S., Kune said. The 10 Scouts performed as a part of the William and Ethel Winkler Concert at the Wilkes-Barre Jewish Community Center; the event was hosted by the Jewish Community Alliance of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The JCA has hosted the Israeli Scouts for more than 20 years. In bringing the community together for programming, it is important that we teach about Israel using this unique song, dance and story, said Barbara Sugarman, adult and cultural director at the JCC. As ambassadors of goodwill, the teen Scouts have a desire to share their love for Israel with others. They did just TESS KORNFELD
Times Leader Intern
WILKES-BARRE The Tzofim Israeli Scout Friendship Caravan stopped in Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday night to promote Israeli culture through song and dance. The caravan is comprised of five Girl Scouts, five Boy Scouts and two group leaders from Israel who spend the summer traveling around the U.S. and Canada to teach about life in Israel and their quest for peace through entertainment. In order to be selected, the 10 Israeli Scouts went through a selective process and were chosen based on their maturity, fluency in English and performance skills. When Avia Kune, 15,

that during their 45-minute show Tuesday night in front of around 90 people. The educational show was full of songs and prayers in Hebrew, Yiddish and English and dancing. Temor Shmuel, 17, said that although sometimes the audience does not understand the language in which the performers are singing, they always understand the emotion. Music is a different language that everyone speaks, Shmuel said.

Kune said that when she sees audience members smile or cry, she knows what she is doing is worth it. They love us, and you can feel it, she said. The group of teens that make up the Southeast Friendship Caravan has performed more than 80 shows on this tour in states including North Carolina, Maryland, Florida, Georgia and Texas. Each state is amazing in their own way, Shmuel said. The Friendship Caravan has only eight more days in the United States, and Shmuel said
that during the past three months the members have become more than a caravan. None of us knew each other, and now we are family, he said. Kune said in addition to becoming friends with each other, their goal is to create friendships between the caravan and the people in the states. We make friends, we meet people. We show Israel in a different light, she said. After staying with host families Tuesday night, the Israeli Scouts will perform today at the JCA Day camp before traveling to Philadelphia.

OTHER OPINION: CAR BLACK BOXES
Cautious support for auto black box

data from a few seconds before to a few seconds after. But with new advances, the boxes might retain data for longer stretches of time. They might also include new information, such as the cars location or cellphone calls that were made using the cars equipment and how long they lasted. Another problem is that black box data are not considered 100 percent reliable at this point. That shouldnt rule out their use in investigations. But the NHTSA, in its enthusiasm, has neglected to include adequate protection for consumers in its proposal. To start, the buyers of new cars should be informed, clearly and verbally, that the boxes exist and what they record. Right now that information is tucked away in the owners manual, which isnt exactly bestselling reading material. Information gathered by the devices should be limited to safety data, and the only information that should be available to investigators and insurance companies should be whats directly related to a crash meaning the seconds immediately before and after. The boxes should not collect audio or video data; the conversation in the car before an accident should not be recorded. And the information should be available only by warrant or subpoena, unless the owner voluntarily surrenders it. Beyond that, the data gathered about a driver in the car he owns belong to him alone. Los Angeles Times
If you bought your car in the last few years, chances are its equipped with a device that records such data as how fast you are driving and whether youre wearing your seat belt. Chances are you dont know its there. Black boxes arent just for airplanes anymore. They were rst installed by automakers as a way to analyze the performance of their cars if that became necessary, but it didnt take long for crash investigators to see them as a source of information about what led to an accident. Was the motorist really traveling within the speed limit, as he claims? When did she begin to apply the brakes? Because of the boxes value in accident investigations, and in determining recall-worthy safety issues, the National Highway Trafc Safety Administration this year proposed that they be required in all new cars and light trucks beginning in 2014. Car companies are willing, and insurance companies support the idea because the information could be used to determine who is at fault in accidents. But various consumer groups, including the Electronic Frontier Foundation, which advocates for individual privacy rights in the digital world, have their doubts. Right now, the information recorded by the black boxes is very limited. Though they continuously gather information, they also continuously erase it. If a crash occurs or an air bag deploys, the boxes retain only the
COMMENTARY: MARK GUYDISH
Lights, camera anyone bring a camera?

If you want a crash course in 1950s60s American pop culture, consider a ticket to the 1960 Broadway play Bye Bye Birdie. Go ahead, tell your kids or grandkids that Conrad Birdie is based on Elvis Presley, then explain Elvis Presley. Describe the Ed Sullivan show, and how most of America tuned in at the same time on the same day to watch it, with no ability to record it for later viewing, much less view it on demand. Explain to a generation that can instantly download suggestive music videos how Presleys gyrations were so controversial Sullivan dubbed it vulgar and initially Mark refused to book him. Guydish Speaking of phones, after you discuss what Contributing a land line is, talk about Columnist the days when there was only one phone line in the house, which is why Mrs. MacAfee can pick up one phone and hear her daughter talking on the other. And if you can, explain Mr. MacAfees quip: Call the FBI! Call the Shadow! Youll nd him under Lamont Cranston. The Pennsylvania Theatre of the Performing Arts is staging the play in the J.J. Ferrara Center on Broad Street in Hazleton (ferraracenter.org), and my wife and I decided to attend Sundays matinee. Not because its a great play (This isnt Shakespeare, or even Oklahoma, the PTPAs next production), or because it hearkens back to a time I remember (I was in high school in the age of big belts and bell bottoms, not thin ties and bobby-soxers). No, we went to see it because nearly four decades ago I played Albert Peterson as a senior in the now-defunct West Hazleton High School. And I guess a part of me always wants to compare my performance with the latecomers starring in local revivals. I mean, can someone who never watched Ed Sullivan on a fuzzy black and white TV really appreciate the MacAfee familys reverie upon learning Were going to be on Ed Sullivan! Except that I have nothing to compare it to beyond memory, a preserved printed program and a few yearbook photos. (Thats me on the right). Which is another thing you might have to explain to the generation recording anything they want and posting it on Youtube instantly for the world to see: There was a time when they didnt hand out DVDs of the play you just staged, when your parents couldnt set up a camera and shoot two hours of footage without changing lm and nding a wall socket. When I was Albert, video cassette recorders were rare and expensive, not obsolete. Im pretty sure West Hazletons audio/visual club worked with one, but I have no idea if they recorded the play, or if any parents caught it with an old lm camera. This isnt meant to sound like a broken record (another analogy you can explain to the MP3 generation), I promise not to regale with stories of how, when I went to school, we had to walk barefoot in three feet of snow uphill, against the wind, both ways. But I often think there is a protable business that, as near as I can tell, has yet to be done. I imagine a website clearinghouse where those seeking old movies of public events like high school
OTHER OPINION: TIME FOR A PAY HIKE
Higher fast-food wages serve everyone better

Hundreds of low-paid fast-food workers and their supporters boisterously demanded improved wages last week with rallies and marches in numerous cities. Cheers to them. Lets hope their employers, state legislators and congressional representatives take notice. Americas expanding low-wage economy is shameful and foolish. It is wishful thinking to expect a robust economic rebound when one in seven Americans lives in poverty and about 15 million Americans work at or near the minimum wage, which is $7.25 an hour at the federal level. Wages at that level shrink buying power and require more government spending. Republicans in Congress who gripe about too many Americans receiving food stamps and other forms of aid should look at increasing peoples earning power. The median income for households of working age fell more than 10 percent from 2000 to 2010. One in four private-sector workers makes less than $10 an hour. The labor protests last week spotlighted fast-food workers who do the heavy lifting for an industry notorious for low pay. Front-line workers earn a median wage of $8.94 an hour, according to a new report by the National Employment Law Project. Contrary to what many people think, and what defenders of the status quo erroneously claim, fast-food restaurants arent a clubby hangout for teenagers who live at home and need gas money. The median age of the person who takes the order or cooks the fries is over 29. Many of them have families to support. Besides low wages, employers make life difcult for fast-food workers by skimping on their hours. At the moment they nd it convenient to blame Obamacare, which in time will require larger employers to purchase health insurance for workers who clock 30 or more hours a week, or else pay a ne. But that requirement wont take effect for more than a year. Health care reform appears to be the latest excuse for an industry that has never encouraged a stable workforce with livable wages and benets. Participants in the union-coordinated national protests are calling for pay at the fast-food restaurants to be raised to $15 an hour. Thats aiming high, considering the resistance among business groups and their political allies. President Barack Obamas call for a $9-an-hour minimum wage would be a good start, although it wouldnt entirely make up for lost ground. If todays low-wage workers had the same purchasing power as the minimum-wage workforce did in 1968, they would be earning close to $10.65 an hour. A group of more than 100 economists, who signed a petition this summer in support of an effort in Congress to lift the minimum wage to $10.50 an hour, estimated that the raise would increase business costs in the fast-food industry by about 2.7 percent. Half of the increase could be paid for by raising the price of a Big Mac by a nickel, the economists calculated. That is not a lot to ask. Low-wage workers generally dont have much of a voice. It is heartening to see them speak out. The trick is to get the right people to listen and act. The Kansas City Star
plays, and those who possess recordings of such events, could post the specics: Year, location, event, etc., allowing seeker and possessor to connect. If theres something like that out there let me know. If youre savvy enough to launch such an endeavor, please do (and consider giving me a cut of any prots for the idea). And if you happen to have some dusty old recording of West Hazleton High Schools 1975 production of Bye Bye Birdie, or any of the other plays I was in in high school or at Penn State Hazleton, let me know. Old footage of my Transguration grade school performance as the bad boy grabbed by the ear by an angry teacher may be good as gold. I was led to believe my acting while being dumped in a waste bucket was a showstopper.

YOUR OPINION: LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
No mistranslation in Bible prophecy

After reading her letter I realized that Ms. Krzywicki does not use the Protestant or the Catholic Bible which she claims are mistranslated. It is strange because the Bible was put together in the late 4th century, yet there were no accusations until Martin Luther in the 16th century. If Kryzywicki would look back to the early times, she would be able to see the approximately 50 prophecies that Jesus fullled. Some examples: Betrayed by a friend, Psalms. 41:9, 55:12; Messiah was to die, Isaiah

Vigil
From page 1A walk from the familys Park Avenue home to the shooting site and back. A search warrant filed with District Judge Martin Kane on Monday indicates that a black man wearing a long-sleeve, light-colored shirt was seen in the area at the time the teen was shot. City police said there was no new information to release Tuesday night. Just like a cowardly dog, he ran off after he shot my son and left him to die, Javette Uggiano said. Uggianos family took solace in two things Tuesday: He is alive and responsive although not quite talking yet and his ordeal drew a diverse throng of wellwishers: young and old, male and female, black, white and Hispanic. We have a real rainbow tribe here, William Uggiano said both of the community, and his family. The U.S. Navy veteran, a white New York native, and his wife, who is African-American and from Virginia, moved to Northeastern Pennsylvania in the mid-1990s, when William Uggiano was stationed at Avoca. Between them, the couple have six children yours, mine and ours, William Uggiano joked of whom green-eyed Chilly is the youngest. Add 12 grandchildren and dozens of relatives and friends, and the number of lives touched by the teens
The 12 Forever Stamps that honor the workers who helped build America.
Javette Uggiano speaks about her son William Uggiano at a large neighborhood vigil held Tuesday evening in Wilkes-Barre.
shooting was painfully clear. I know every one of the people who are here, said Javette Uggiano, who was constantly pausing to receive hugs, kisses and prayers as she made the walk between Park Avenue and Wayne Street. At the outset, she had 144 candles to distribute to marchers. She gave them all away, and estimated that there were at
least 100 more participants. Touched by the outpouring of support, Javette Uggiano also felt it was vital to share an urgent message with the hushed crowd while they stood around the shooting site. This has got to stop, she said. Young men 18, 19, 20 years old are dying for no reason, no reason at all.
And all too often, she said, those victims are young men of color. That message resonated with many young people at Tuesday nights vigil. Yeah, its scary. People have to play with guns. I just dont know , said DAndra Howard, 13, a friend of Uggiano who said she had known him since she was small.
I was surprised. Hes a good kid, Howard said. Its sad, because were all one community, and this is just really sad. When this is where you grew up, you shouldnt have to be scared, she added. According to the search warrant affidavit, an officer on East Northampton Street heard gunfire at 10:50 p.m.
Saturday and found Uggiano laying on Wayne Street near South Grant Street. Several spent .45 caliber shell casings were recovered at the intersection. The teen was able to tell police he did not know the name of the person who shot him but had seen the shooter around town before. Uggiano said he was just walking and the guy shot him, the afdavit states. Is he an angel? Hes a teenager, William Uggiano said. But what could a teenager do that you would gun him down with ve bullets and leave him on the street? The parents said they are still waiting for answers and had heard nothing new from police as of Tuesday evening. Their son suffered multiple gunshot wounds to his torso and head, and his father said the young man had undergone hip surgery on Tuesday. Its going to be a long road, probably, William Uggiano said. While grateful for the interest shown by supporters and the news media, Javette Uggiano said her sons homecoming, when it nally arrives, will be a private, lowkey affair. Im not telling anybody, she said, as her yard, porch and the surrounding sidewalk teemed with people nearly an hour after the vigil ended. She does have a message for the person who put her son in the hospital. The police are looking for you.
Controller
From page 1A majority vote, the nomination will be lled by county judges, the charter says. Councils replacement must be a registered Republican dating back to November 2009, when Grifth, a Republican, was elected to the post, the charter says. That would exclude Llewellyn from consideration because she changed from a Democrat to Republican registration in February 2010, county records show. Heres a synopsis of the tentative plan to ll the post, according to McGinley: A public advertisement describing the post and qualications will be issued shortly. The position will pay a gross $703 per week based on the controllers annual $36,562 salary. Interested county Republicans will have until Aug. 19 to apply. An Aug. 20 council budget session will be changed to a regular meeting to discuss the selection process. Council will interview applicants Aug. 21 and/or Aug. 22. The interviews will be conducted in public to comply with state Sunshine Act requirements for the lling of elected posts. GOP to meet County Republican Party Chairman Bill Urbanski said the partys executive committee will meet soon to discuss a plan to choose someone else to run in Grifths ballot slot in the November general. Wilkes-Barre tax accountant Karen CeppaHirko, whom Grifth defeated in the May primary, said Tuesday she is considering offering to run. She declined to discuss Grifths decision to resign. Thats up to investigators. My main goal in seeking the post was to hold people accountable, Ceppa-Hirko said. Conyngham Township resident Michelle Bednar, the Democratic controller contender, issued a statement reiterating her commitment to ght for accountability and transparency. Bednar has cited her experience working as an ofce manager, nancial/payroll supervisor, corporate trust supervisor and municipal tax collector. The resignation and departure of Controller Walter Grifth, while a disappointment to every Luzerne County resident who has grown weary of public scandals, presents us with an opportunity to clean the slate and start a new chapter in Luzerne County government, Bednar said. County Councilman Stephen A. Urban, who lost to Bednar in the primary, encouraged Republicans to apply for the upcoming council nomination and Grifths vacant ballot slot. Urban had publicly called for Grifth to resign before the primary due to the wiretap charges, but Grifth said he would ght to clear his name and keep the post. Its good the Republican Party is going to get to appoint his replacement because we have a totally unqualied Democrat running with no relevant experience, Urban said. Councilman Rick Morelli had also called for Grifth to resign and supports his decision. Black cloud lifted I think Walter did the right thing. We have this black cloud hanging over the county with the charges against him, and its certainly a distraction. His resignation is the best thing for the county and controllers ofce, Morelli said. Morelli said Grifth often did his job very well, but he also believes Grifth occasionally pulled the re alarm without sufcient research and discussion with parties involved in the subjects he was addressing. That was his downfall. He stepped outside the boundaries of his job, Morelli said. Grifth said Tuesday hes proud of his record addressing an inherited audit backlog, successfully pushing for a policy to track county-supplied vehicle fuel and switching to an online vendor payment system that eliminated the mailing of checks and generated revenue for the county. He said he also lobbied for a system to better track tax collector revenue, stopped numerous questionable payments and made ofce records more accessible to the public and media. I was in the ofce more than my staff. Everyone and everything was under the microscope because I didnt rubber-stamp anything, Grifth said. I did what I promised to do. Grifth, who plans to revive his Nanticoke auto repair business, said he received many supportive messages and calls Tuesday as the news of his resignation spread. Im getting a lot of thanks for the job I did. Thats very encouraging to me, he said.

Stewart has surgery after crash

Wednesday, August 7, 2013
KANNAPOLIS, N.C. Tony Stewart told anyone who would listen why he continued racing anywhere, anytime, regardless of purse or crowd or car. Even after he ipped ve times last week, Stewart was quick to offer a stout defense for his shorttrack weeknight racing while some questioned if his extracurricular racing was putting his championship chances in NASCAR at risk. Well, his championship chances are ofcially over for this season.
The three-time NASCAR champion broke his right leg Monday night at Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa, where he ipped his 360 winged sprint car while leading with ve laps remaining in the 30-lap feature. He had surgery Tuesday on the upper and lower parts of his leg, and Stewart-Haas Racing said hell need a second surgery. He remained hospitalized and there was no timetable for his return to racing. Max Papis was tabbed to replace Stewart this weekend in the No. 14 Chevrolet at Watkins Glen, where Stewart is
a ve-time winner and his streak of 521 consecutive starts will end. I told someone to go get my phone or else I was going to get up and get it myself, Stewart said Tuesday in a Facebook post. Finally got reconnected to the world and just want to say thank you for all the prayers and well wishes. My team will remain strong and I will be back. The 42-year-old Stewart has wrecked three times in the last month in extracurricular racing, and the latest came a day after

Six years ago when Tom Grace left his job as the broadcaster for the Wilkes-B arre/S cranton Penguins, he did it for what he says was the wrong reason money. This month, when Grace leaves the team again to take a job elsewhere, the reasons are a bit different. Namely living in South Beach and working for an NHL team. The Voice of the Penguins has accepted a job as the manager of team services for the Florida Panthers and will be joining the team within the next two weeks. The job will take Grace away from the broadcast booth and put him in charge of the teams transportation and scheduling, including chartering ights, booking hotel rooms, handling immigration issues for foreignborn players and their families as well as making arrangements for players from Floridas AHL afliate in San Antonio when they are called up.

SOUTHWARD BOUND
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins CEO Jeff Barrett said there is no timeline for naming a replacement for Tom Grace, but he does have a pretty good idea of the type of person needed to become the teams next broadcaster. Toms a great broadcaster and youre not going to replace Tom Grace.The new person will be brought here to be their own person who makes it a fun game to listen to for our fans, Barrett said. Its a unique dynamic because you have to entertain our fans and understand the business side of things. Barrett did confirm that communications director Mike OBrien is a candidate for the post but no decisions have been made. I want a guy who I think can get to the NHL.Thats our goal, he said. Grace becomes the fourth member of the Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton staff to land an NHL job this year. In January head athletic trainer Patrick Steidle left to take an assistant trainer job with Pittsburgh.This summer equipment manager Teddy Richards was hired to be an assistant equipment manager in Pittsburgh, while his brother, Josh, left to take the same position with the Dallas Stars.
NEW YORK Facebook friends. Transcripts of BlackBerry instant messages. Records of texts. Major League Baseballs investigators used an arsenal of high-tech tools to collect the evidence that persuaded a dozen players to accept 50-game suspensions this week for their ties to the Biogenesis clinic. And when it came time to meet with the players association, they ashed some of their documentary proof. While there was not enough time for the union to thoroughly examine what baseball had collected, there was little doubt there was an electronic trail, one of the people familiar with the meetings said. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because no public statements were authorized. It both complicates things and adds a layer of proof that certainly wasnt available many years ago, union general counsel David Prouty said Tuesday. Alex Rodriguez, the lone holdout against a suspension, faces an arbitration hearing in coming months that likely will include such evidence. The New York Yankees third baseman was suspended for 211 games from Thursday through the 2014 season, though he is allowed to play until a decision is issued by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz, which is not expected until at least November. Until now, nearly all suspensions under MLBs drug program resulted from positive drug tests. The Biogenesis probe revealed players were using PEDs without detection.
Philadelphia Phillies relief pitcher Antonio Bastardo, seen pitching against the Tigers on July 28, was one of the 13 players suspended on Monday.

Entering last major of the year,Lefty feels different

PAUL NEWBERRY
AP National Writer
PITTSFORD, N.Y. Tiger Woods is leaving nothing to chance in his last chance this year to win a major. Fresh off a seven-shot victory at a World Golf Championship his fth win of the season Woods showed up at Oak Hill late Monday afternoon and spent most of his time chipping and putting, trying to learn the nuanc-
es of the greens. Remember, his failure to adjust to the greens is what derailed him at the British Open two weeks ago. He also spent time with Steve Stricker talking about putting, which must have been a daunting sight for the other players. The last time Stricker gave him some putting tips was in early March, and Woods went on to win three of his next four tournaments. See TIGER | 3B

PITTSFORD, N.Y. Phil Mickelson looks at himself differently these days. Sure, theres a bit of uncertainty in the grogginess of morning, when he wakes up wondering if that claret jug really belongs to him for a whole year. Then yep there it is, his name engraved on the sil-
ver chalice. For Lefty, its all gravy from this point on. He feels complete. The British Open really changed some of my perception of myself as a player, Mickelson said Tuesday after a practice round at Oak Hill for the nal major of the year, the PGA Championship.

Stewart
From page 1B nished ninth at Pocono in a NASCAR event to position himself 11th in the Sprint Cup standings with ve races remaining to set the Chase for the championship eld. But Stewart had long refused to slow down his sprint car racing schedule, and passionately defended it following the June death of friend Jason Lefer in an accident at Bridgeport Speedway in Swedesboro, N.J. He was just as impassioned last Friday at Pocono when asked about his accident last week in Canada in which Stewart ipped a sprint car ve times. His childhood hero, fourtime Indianapolis 500 winner A.J. Foyt, defended Stewart on Tuesday for sticking to his passion and being a true racer. He aint no prima donna and life is short, and we dont know how we are going to die or whats going to happen, Foyt said in a telephone interview with The Associated Press. I just hate to see anybody badmouth Tony for anything hes doing, and if they are, they are just jealous. People saying hes putting his businesses at risk? I had three dealerships, people respected me. If they are worrying about their jobs and him getting hurt, whats to say he wont have a heart attack tomorrow and die? Foyt said. He might die and it might not be from racing. I had business and I still raced. I always said I am going to continue racing until I dont want to race anymore

The Internet has become a destination for people to nd almost anything. You can get up-to-the-minute scores from seemingly every game, even youth sports, keep in touch with long-lost friends, research almost any fact and nd scandalous pictures of Anthony Weiner. One industry which has come into its glory in the past decade-plus of the web is the world of sports collectables. Up though the 1980s, collecting for the average person was picking up packs of baseball cards at the corner store (wow, remember those?). Then there were the card shows, held in hotel ballrooms and such, where stars present and past would sign autographs while all kinds of sports cards were bought, sold and traded. Sports cards were a great hobby I put a downpayment on my rst house with proceeds from selling some of my collection. But the market for cards hit a downturn in the 1990s and as memorabilia collecting rebounded, it found a new medium and a new level of attachment with the on-eld stars. Now, almost anything sports-related is available online. Theres game-used jerseys, shoes, pants and equipment, autographed sports items, and the unusual old contracts, canceled checks and other novelties. The goal of this column is to bring a little of all thats out there to you, as with the evolution of the Internet, collecting such items no longer means traveling to a New York City auction house. You are just a few clicks of a mouse away from something out of your favorite athletes career. Going Hunt-ing This column wasnt going
to begin until next week, but there a nice bunch of local items available on the web that might spark some interest. Hunt Auctions has an auction that ends Wednesday at 10 p.m. with nearly 1,300 lots. Back near the end of the list are more than 70 Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre Red Barons items, making this one of the bigger offerings of memorabilia from the former Moosic mashers. The main grouping starts with No. 1151, a 1991 teamsigned baseball. Theres a dozen more similar items from other seasons, all between $10-$21. Sixteen team-signed bats from throughout the years follow, with bids ranging from $10-$36. Theres signed jerseys from a handful of favorites, including some two-jersey packages, that are at $39 or less. Most are cheaper than buying a new jersey, show usage and have the signature of the player. Hats are grouped 6-9 per lot, with 20 bid numbers out there. Bids were a reasonable $10$28. There are other Red Barons items around lot No. 1066. Not into the Red Barons? The auction has plenty of Phillies items, football gear, a Raghib Ismail signed and inscribed (88 National Champs) Notre Dame football helmet (lot No. 1102, $248), and features the Warren Spahn collection. All prices are as of Tuesday afternoon, and its an auction they arent going down. And always be sure to check the terms and conditions. Theres often a premium added to winning bids, and shipping and handling charges should be expected. Visit www.huntauctions. com to see everything offered. Looking for something from a particular athlete or team? Email jmedeiros@timesleader.com and well see what we can nd.
and hes the same way. Stewart took responsibility for triggering a roughly 10-car accident at Canandaigua (N.Y.) Motorsports Park on July 16 in which 19-year-old Alysha Ruggles injured her back. Last week, in a sprint car race at Ohsweken Speedway in Ontario, Stewart rolled his car ve times but walked away. He stayed at the track to compete in the World of Outlaws race the next night and bristled at the NASCAR event at Pocono Raceway when asked about his harrowing incident in Canada. You mortals have got to learn, you guys need to watch more sprint car videos and stuff, he said Friday. It was not a big deal. Its starting to get annoying this week about that. That was just an average sprint car wreck. When they wreck, they get upside down like that. Following Lefers death, Stewart defended track and sprint car safety. Id be grateful if you guys would understand that what happened this week wasnt because somebody didnt do something right with the race track. It was an accident. Just like if you go out and theres a car crash. Its an accident, Stewart said days after Lefers death. Nobody as a track owner wants to go through what happened, but its not due to a lack of effort on their part to try to make their facilities as safe as possible under the conditions they have. On Sunday, veteran sprint car driver Kramer Williamson died from injuries suffered during a qualifying race at Lincoln Speedway in central The latest move might mark the end of Graces tenure as a hockey broadcaster. Im not going (to Florida) to eventually become a broadcaster again, he said. My enthusiasm for this game is contagious, but Im not in the public spotlight with this job. My goal is to learn and adapt to the culture of the Florida Panthers. My goal is to succeed in the NHL. Grace credits his time in Wilkes-Barre and the overall success of the Penguins organization as the main reasons for his step up to the NHL. During his time with the Penguins, Grace won three James H. Ellery Memorial Awards for outstanding media coverage. The biggest thing with this is an NHL team outside shots that go against everything hes supposed to be about then pulling them off. In my mind, it is an accomplishment in my career that makes me more of a complete player, he said. To nally have won that and break through and play some of my best golf ever in my nal round, that kind of changes the way I view myself and my game, more so than just a major championship that I had already won. Mickelson has already won the PGA Championship, back in 2005 at Baltusrol. Thats not to say he doesnt want to add a few more majors to a resume that already ensures hell be remembered as one of the games greatest players. Hes never been this condent about his chances.

Pennsylvania. Williamson, 63, was pronounced dead at York Hospital from serious injuries suffered in a crash that occurred Saturday night during the United Racing Company 358/360 Sprint Car Challenge. Although it sounds cliche, Foyt believes racers want to go out doing what they love. Tony is a true racer, of my organization said we want Tom Grace to work for us. An outside organization recognizes your abilities, thats what is most satisfying, Grace said. Penguins CEO Jeff Barrett said Grace was one of the most recognizable and popular members of the organization since its inception in 1999. Barrett said he and San Antonio GM Mike Santos have discussed Graces move to the Florida organization for quite some time, and its a move that Barrett said is long overdue. Unfortunately the Pittsburgh organization is losing a good person, but Im very happy for Tom, Barrett said. Our job here is to get people to the NHL. Of the things he will miss most about Wilkes-Barre, Im more motivated than ever to work hard to succeed, because I can taste some of my best golf coming out, Mickelson said, his voice and demeanor just oozing condence. I can feel it. At 43, hes already a man in full, complete with ve major championships. Only 11 golfers have won more. But dont get him wrong hes driven to complete a career Grand Slam, merely lacking a victory in the U.S. Open, where hes been the runner-up a record six times. I feel as though I started to play my best golf in the last four, ve, six months, he said. I feel like Ive keyed in on two areas that Ive struggled with for years, which is putting and off the tee. I feel very condent in my ability to
Foyt said. Thats one thing I respect about him. A lot of them people go to NASCAR and become a kingpin in one type of car. Jeff Gordon and Kasey Kahne, they all were sprint car and midget cars drivers rst, like Tony, and Tony still is a sprint car driver and its a shame he got hurt. But I dont see where someone can condemn him for it. Grace said the fans top the list. When he returned to the team in 2010 Grace said the move re-invigorated the fan base, and he feels good about the mark he has left with the community. I hope the fans understand this is a great day for me personally. I feel great about what Im leaving behind and the Penguins are committed to having the best product possible, Grace said. Its bittersweet because its tough to leave a place where Ive been so well-accepted and its not easy to walk away from an area where people have taken you into their hearts. I am now a Florida Panther, but the Penguins allowed me to be a part of their team that was constructive to our success. get the ball in play off the tee, and I feel very condent in my ability on the greens now. Ive turned weaknesses into strengths, he went on, and this serves me well in major championships. I feel like now the major championships are possibly the easiest ones for me to be in contention and maybe even win. At home in California, Mickelson had a practice facility built right in his yard, allowing him to work on shots when theres nothing on the line, no fans shouting his name. I enjoy walking out after dinner and hitting some putts and hitting some chips and hitting some balls, he said. I find it very calming and very serene being out there doing what Ive always loved to do.
Grace
From page 1B will also travel with the team on all road games. They are duties that Grace is somewhat familiar with from his time with Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton, to a degree. Traveling on a bus and checking into the Hilton at Hartford is a lot different than landing in Edmonton at 2 a.m. on a chartered ight with 35 guys, he said. Grace has worked more than 1,000 pro games behind the microphone and has been the Penguins play-by-play voice for 11 seasons. He left the team in 2007 to take a job with a marketing company but returned to the Penguins three years later.
Lefty
From page 1B that would not have done the same thing as what winning the claret jug has done. Mickelson is a little over two weeks removed from one of the greatest closing rounds in major championship history, a 5-under 66 at rock-hard Muireld to claim golfs oldest crown. It was the leg of the career Grand Slam that always gured to elude him. His game was built for the target golf played in America, complete with an array of soaring drives and wondrous wedges. But, over four days along the Scottish coast, Mickelson showed he could grind it out better than anyone on a tabletop of a course, imagining
Tiger
From page 1B The stakes are higher than usual for him at the PGA Championship. This isnt the rst time Woods has gone into nal major trying to make sure his season doesnt end without one. One difference from previous years is that Woods now is piling up wins just about everywhere except the majors. The Bridgestone Invitational was his fth win of the year. Only twice in the last 30 years has a player had at least that many PGA Tour wins in a season without a major Woods in 2009 and Woods in 2003. For someone who has been stuck on 14 majors the last ve years, Woods didnt sound like he was in panic mode. I think winning one major championship automatically means you had a great year, he said Tuesday after playing nine holes and spending even more time in the practice area, ne-tuning a game that already is in great shape. Even if you miss the cut in every tournament you play, you win one (major), youre part of history. This year, I think its been a great year so far for me, winning ve times, he said. And you
look at the quality of tournaments Ive won The Players and two World Golf Championships in there thats pretty good. It used to be major or bust for Woods, but when asked if he had adjusted his standards during this ve-year drought, Woods offered a simple, No. Still a great year without a major? Yeah, Woods said, offering nothing more than a smile. Even so, he conceded that the 15th major has been tougher to get than he would have imagined. So much has transpired since that U.S. Open playoff victory at Torrey Pines in 2008 reconstructive surgery on his left knee that wiped out the rest of the 2008 season; revelations of multiple extramarital affairs at the end of 2009 that led to divorce and cost him millions in corporate endorsements; more injuries that forced him to skip two majors in 2011. The very thing that irritates him about his recent record in the majors is what gives him hope he keeps giving himself opportunities. Ive had my opportunities there on the back nine on probably half of those Sundays for the last ve years, where Ive had a chance and just havent won it, Woods said. But the key is to keep giving myself chances, and eventually Ill start getting them.
The traditional, tree-lined East Course at Oak Hill can present the appearance of Firestone, where Woods won forthe eighth time la st week. The difference is the greens on the Donald Ross design, which tend to slope severely to the front. The rough is thicker than usual, not nearly as severe as Merion, but enough to get players attention to hit whatever club his necessary off the tee to keep it in the short grass. Woods tied for 39th and never broke par when the PGA Championship was last held at Oak Hill in 2003, though thats a pretty small sample to argue if this course suits him. Remember, he was nishing his rst full year without a swing coach. And while he won ve times that year, Woods won only one tournament over the last six months. He is back to No. 1 in the world by a mile. He is the favorite at every major, even though hes gone 17 majors without winning. He is the center of attention, and that only ramps up when he arrives fresh off a seven-shot win. I think Tiger is a factor no matter what even coming in not with that kind of form, Masters champion Adam Scott said. Hes been up there in majors recently and just has not nished it off. But, obviously, he put it all together last week at a venue hes extremely comfortable with, so I dont know that Tigers condence is ever really down.

With their big boomstick out of the lineup, the Texas Rangers are going to have to adapt to get in the playoffs again. This is a club that has never shied away from a challenge before, general manager Jon Daniels said. Its got a track record of success and we believe in this team, believe in the guys on the club and our pitching staff, our athleticism and the leadership there. We have every expectation that we are going to continue to win and make it to the playoffs, in spite of the situation. Without Nelson Cruz, the suspended All-Star right elder and 2011 AL championship series MVP who leads the Rangers with 27 home runs and 76 RBIs. The game doesnt stop because one guy is not there, manager Ron Washington said. Texas will be without Cruz the rest of the regular season after he was suspended 50 games Monday by Major League Baseball following its investigation into the Biogenesis clinic accused of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs. While the absence of Cruz will be noticeable, Ian Kinsler and the rest of the Rangers insist that shouldnt affect their playoff chances. None. Were missing a guy. Someone is going to have to step up and play right eld, Kinsler said. Thats the way this team
Rangers adjusting without suspended slugger

works. Were not really worried about whos not on the eld. Were worried about whos on the eld, and winning. Instead of having another slugger to take over in right eld, and more pressing in the middle of the batting order, the Rangers for now have ve outelders that will be in some sort of platoon system. David Murphy, primarily a left elder, was in right eld for the rst game without Cruz while Engel Beltre, recalled from Triple-A, was in left. Leonys Martin started in center, and later moved to right when Craig Gentry came into the game. Joey Butler, called up without ever playing in a major league game, is a right elder to be used against lefthanders. Certainly it makes it more challenging on us offensively, said Murphy, whose 12 homers and 34 RBIs top the group that has a combined 19 homers and 70 RBIs. Even with Cruz, who is eligible for free agency after the season, the Rangers were averaging about 4.3 runs per game and on pace for their fewest runs in a full 162game season since 1992. The Rangers went into their game late Tuesday night at the Angels two games behind AL Westleading Oakland. Texas was six games back before winning seven of eight games,
WASHINGTON Washington Nationals pitcher Gio Gonzalez called it a lie right from the very start, from the moment a newspaper report linked him to a clinic accused of distributing performance-enhancing drugs. A little more than six months later, Gonzalez was formally cleared by Major League Baseball. Gonzalez, a left-hander who nished third in NL Cy Young Award voting last year, said Monday he has no lingering sense of animosity over being connected to MLBs drug investigation. New York Yankees third baseman Alex Rodriguez was banned through 2014, while 12 players were suspended 50 games apiece Monday because of their relationship to Biogenesis of America. MLB also announced that its inquiry found no violations by two players linked to Biogenesis in media reports: Gonzalez and Danny Valencia, a Baltimore Orioles third baseman recalled from the minors on Sunday. Ive never been really concerned about it, Nationals manager Davey Johnson said about Gonzalezs
involvement. I had a conversation with him in spring when it all came up. We had a nice talk about it. He wasnt concerned about it. I was, like anybody else, upset he was even linked to it. It is a relief that everybody knows it wasnt a problem. Its just another distraction you dont have to deal with. Gonzalez never sounded bothered by the whole thing, and he has pitched rather well this season for a Nationals club that entered Monday three games below .500 after leading the majors in wins last year. I think it was on his mind so I think it had some effect on him, general manager Mike Rizzo said before the Nationals hosted the Atlanta Braves on Monday night. I think he handled it well. Its a testament to his mental makeup and the way he prepares for games. I thought hes thrown extremely well, considering. Gonzalez is 7-4 with a 3.57 ERA and a team-leading 139 strikeouts in 133 2-3 innings. In 2012, his rst season with Washington, Gonzalez went 21-8. Overall, in six years in the majors with the Oakland Athletics and Nationals, the 27-year-old Gonzalez is 66-44 with a 3.64 ERA. Baseballs investigation began last

year and escalated in January, when the Miami New Times published documents connecting several players to Biogenesis, whose founder, Anthony Bosch, eventually cooperated with MLB.
When that newspapers report came out in January, Gonzalez posted on his Twitter feed: Ive never used performance enhancing drugs of any kind and I never will, Ive never met or spoken with tony Bosch or used any substance provided by him. anything said to the contrary is a lie. He later said that his father, Max, was a patient of the clinic and went there to get help losing weight. In February, Gonzalez said he had taken blood and urine tests two days after the initial newspaper report and that they came back negative. I am very pleased that Major League Baseball has cleared my name. With this process now complete, I have no lingering sense of animosity, as I quickly realized that the objective of this investigation was to clean up our game, Gonzalez said in a statement issued Monday by the Nationals. This is an ideal that I share with both Major League Baseball and the (players union). I would also like to acknowledgetheunwaveringsupport of my teammates, the Lerner Family (that owns the Nationals), Mike Rizzo, Davey Johnson, our coaching staff and Nationals fans everywhere.
Florida HS association taking hard look at PEDs

TIM REYNOLDS
AP Sports Writer
MIAMI The Florida High School Athletic Association will review its policies on performanceenhancing drugs following an allegation that its athletes were among the customers of the shuttered clinic at the center of the baseball scandal. The FHSAA said it has no proof to substantiate the claims of former Biogenesis employee Porter Fischer, who has told The Associated Press and other media outlets in recent days that he saw the clinics operator give PEDs to high school players. But, as the state association sees it, even the mere suggestion that youngsters are involved with PEDs is reason enough to act. Its an issue that we have to address head-on, said Florida Sen. Bill Monford, a former school principal and superintendent. And quite frankly, in my opin-
ion, this is not a ngerpointing exercise. Its truly an acknowledgment that weve got a problem and we also have a responsibility to address this issue. And we have to address it with vigor because if we dont, the lives of many of our student-athletes can be so negatively impacted. The announcement came one day after Major League Baseball disciplined 13 players, including Alex Rodriguez of the New York Yankees, for having ties to Biogenesis, a clinic accused of distributing banned performance enhancers. Fischer has said that the clinics operator, Anthony Bosch, sold PEDs to a number of high school athletes, and that he came forward with those allegations with hopes that law enforcement would take a deeper look into what the clinic did before its doors closed. The FHSAA said it read those claims, and the associations director called them a wake-up call.

including 5-2 in the series opener Monday night at Los Angeles only hours after the discipline against Cruz and 12 other MLB players was announced. Does it hurt us more than losing Matt Harrison for all year, Colby Lewis for almost all season? Weve lost guys, weve gained guys, catcher A.J. Pierzynski said. Obviously Nellies numbers are what they are, and his presence is what it is. Harrison, the teams opening day starter before two operations on a herniated disk in his lower back, is pitching in rehab games and could be back by the end of the month. The Rangers also had anticipated having Lewis back, but said Tuesday that their most successful postseason pitcher will have surgery to remove
bone spurs from his right hip. He had been coming back from elbow surgery last year. Texas was unable to add a right-handed hitter before last weeks non-waiver trade deadline. But right-hander Matt Garza was acquired to join Yu Darvish and Derek Holland in a rotation that is backed by a solid bullpen led by Joe Nathan. When you look at our pitching staff and some of the people that we have that are rehabbing, you feel like one of your strengths is certainly your pitching, Rangers CEO and Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan Ryan said. We have to feel good of where we are and what we have as a club. If the Rangers make the playoffs for the fourth consecutive year, Cruz would
eligible to play in the postseason. Daniels said the team is open-minded to Cruz returning for the playoffs, with one of the primary considerations how the slugger would be accepted in the clubhouse. It was just a big mistake. He knows. He came out and told the team, Holland said. We wont put a cloud of him or anything like that. Weve got all the love for him. Well be waiting for him, and we know hes going to be a key member of this team when it comes to the playoffs. Cruz apologized to his teammates in the clubhouse Monday. The slugger didnt speak publicly, but said in a statement that a gastrointestinal infection he had from November 2011 through January 2012 wasnt properly diagnosed. He said he lost 40 pounds before getting proper treatment and just weeks before spring training made an error in judgment that I deeply regret. He provided no other specifics, including what he might have taken. Hes one of my favorite teammates. Everyone knows its going to hurt, but theres no way to replace him, Kinsler said. Its the next guy in line. Weve been doing this many times in many different circumstances. Its not like were going to give up because hes missing.
MLB
From page 1B speak for attribution about its investigation. The league used about 30 people full time in its factgathering, another person familiar with the process said Tuesday, also on condition of anonymity because no statements were authorized. The probe was sparked in January when the Miami New Times published documents linking players to the clinic and accused it of distributing banned performance-enhancing drugs. Technology has evolved since 2003, when federal agents raided the Bay Area Laboratory Co-Operative in Burlingame, Calif., sparking an investigation that eventually led to criminal convictions of Barry Bonds, track star Marion Jones, cyclist Tammy Thomas and NFL lineman Dana Stubbleeld. And when former Sen. George Mitchell issued his report on drugs in baseball four years later, he recommended baseball start an investigations department. Dan Mullin, a former New York City Police Ofcer, was hired as the units head in 2008. Former U.S. Secret Service director Mark Sullivan was brought in to assist in the Biogenesis probe. After the Miami New Times report, baseball investigators examined the Facebook pages of Bosch and Porter Fisher, the former Biogenesis associate who gave documents to the newspaper. They began to sketch out which people they were friends with, and which of those friends posted photos of athletes or mentioned athletes. Each link led to new loops that provided leads. MLB led a lawsuit in March against Biogenesis of America, company founder Anthony Bosch and others, complaining they interfered with the contracts between MLB and the union. The suit was unusual and may never reach trial, but it did give MLB the ability to le civil subpoenas. Records from Floridas Circuit Court for MiamiDade County that were examined by the AP showed subpoenas were issued to Federal Express, AT&T Mobility, T-Mobile USA, UPS and Metro PCS. At least some of those companies complied and turned over data to the probe, one of the people said. By June, Bosch agreed to cooperate with the investigation. The person said MLB hired a data recovery company to obtain records from his mobile telephone.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre managed just ve hits as the Chiefs defeated the RailRiders 3-2 Tuesday at NBT Bank Stadium. After Syracuse plated a run in the rst inning, Melky Mesa answered in the top of the third with a tworun homer, his tenth of the season, to give Scranton/Wilkes-Barre a 2-1 advantage. The RailRiders lead withered away when Jhonatan Solano and Josh Johnson had RBI hits in the bottom of the fourth. After Mesas blast in the top of the third, the RailRiders mustered just two singles for the rest of the game. Yunesky Maya earned the victory, allowing ve hits and two runs while striking out ve in eight innings of work. Erik Davis logged his 12th save of the season as he slammed the door on Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre in the ninth. David Huff pitched ve innings, allowed three run and struck out six in the loss. With the loss and Rochesters win, the RailRiders elimination number drops to 19 in the North Division and 22 in the Wild Card with 31 games remaining. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre will try to snap its four-game skid at Syracuse at 7 p.m. today. Earlier in the evening, the RailRiders nished off the Chiefs in the continuation of a suspended game from July 12, in which the
two teams were knotted in a 6-6 tie in the top of the 12th. In the bottom of the 13th, Alberto Gonzalez laced a walk-off single to left eld, which brought home Melky Mesa and the 7-6 victory for the RailRiders. A few oddities in the rst game is that ve RailRider players Brent Lillibridge, Fernando Martinez, Thomas Neal, WAlter Ibarra and David Adams appeared but are no longer on the roster. Huff was also the starter in the suspended game. The completion of the suspended game also marked the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre franchises 11 millionth fan, which includes the games played away from PNC Field last season. In honor of the milestone, the organization will give the 1,111th fan that enters PNC Field Saturday, the opening game in a four-game series with the Buffalo Bisons, a jersey with the number 11 million on the back, 11 tickets to all remaining RailRiders games, 11 hot dogs, 11 Pepsis, $111 in store credit at the Scranton/WilkesBarre Station Team Store, 11 autographed baseballs and a crown. The fan will also get to throw out the rst pitch. Furthermore, the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre front ofce staff will complete 11 hours of community service. The 2013 attendance so far this season has already the attendance from the entire 2011 season.

CHICAGO As Alex Rodriguezs suspension saga unfolds, the New York Yankees insist its business as usual for them. They hope their embattled slugger can give their fading playoff hopes a boost. They insist hes welcome in their clubhouse. And closer Mariano Rivera expressed some sympathy for A-Rod. Alex is my friend and its denitely hard when you see all this stuff and when you see fans booing a player because Im a player, he said. Its just hard. It is what it is, but at the same time hes a human being. To see the way they boo him its hard to take and to see. On Tuesday, Rodriguez was the designated hitter in his second game back for the New York Yankees. He walked in his rst plate appearance, was hit by a pitch his second time up before singling later in the game. Manager Joe Girardi said Rodriguez was feeling ne, but he decided not to play him at third base against the Chicago White Sox on Tuesday night. I thought with kind of a long game (Monday), I
chose to DH him today, Girardi said. Probably put him back at third base (Wednesday). I didnt even ask him and he said he felt good today. I didnt even ask him, I just thought it was a good idea today. The three-time AL MVP was given a 211-game suspension from Thursday through the 2014 season by Major League Baseball for violations of its drug agreement and labor contract. Hours after Mondays announcement, A-Rod started at third base and went 1 for 4 in his rst appearance of the season after hip surgery in January. He was showered with boos and Steroids! Steroids! chants in that game. Rodriguez said he will appeal the suspension, which will be stayed until a decision by arbitrator Fredric Horowitz, likely in the offseason. Union head Michael Weiner maintains 211 games was excessive discipline and said Tuesday on SiriusXM Radio that he advised Rodriguez to settle if Major League Baseball offered a shorter penalty. I dont want to give a number, but there was a number that I gave A-Rod and we advised him to
take it. He was never given that number, Weiner said. Based on the evidence that we saw we made a recommendation. The commissioners ofce didnt meet it. They were much higher. And therefore, were at a hearing. Weiner said the union, at the behest of Rodriguezs lawyers, had requested a meeting with MLB on Saturday but after talking to management the sides decided not to get together. On the eld, the Yankees are hoping Rodriguez can give them the production theyve been lacking at third and boost their postseason chances. They entered Tuesdays game 9 games back in the AL East. Its been a difcult year, general manager Brian Cashman said. Ive been around a long time, Ive been doing this a long time but certainly have been a lot of extra stuff that youre not used to dealing with, not just the Alex stuff. Im talking about the amount of injuries weve had. Cashman said hes operating under the assumption that the Yankees will have Rodriguez the rest of the season, although no ones told me either way.

Harrison homers to power Pirates

PITTSBURGH Josh Harrison homered leading off the bottom of the ninth, lifting the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 4-3 win over the Miami Marlins on Tuesday night. Harrison sent a fastball from Miamis Mike Dunn (2-3) into the first row of seats in left-center field for his first career walk-off homer. Dunn had worked out of a bases loaded, no-out jam in the eighth. Bryan Morris (5-4) pitched a perfect top of the ninth for the victory. The Pirates have won three straight and are a season-high 24 games over .500 (6844). Neil Walker had three hits for the Pirates. Andrew McCutchen had two hits, including a two-run double, for Pittsburgh. Donovan Solano went 3 for 5 for the Marlins but Miami left 11 runners on base.
Phillies 9, Cubs 8
Except, in this particular case, Evan Gattis two-run single in the fifth inning and the six innings thrown by Teheran (9-5) while allowing one run combined to produce Atlantas seasonhigh 12th consecutive win, padding their NL East lead to 14 games over Washington. Gattis big hit came off Gio Gonzalez (7-5), who pitched one night after Major League Baseball announced its Biogenesis investigation cleared the left-hander.

Utley, who had three hits, drove in the tying run on a triple to deep center field. He soon scored on a Domonic Brown ground out to give the Phillies the lead. Ruf added one more on a solo home run, his fourth of the season. Philadelphia tagged Edwin Jackson (7-12) for seven runs and 10 hits in six innings. Trailing 9-5 in the ninth, the Cubs scored three runs off Phillies closer Jonathan Papelbon before pinch-hitter Thomas Neal flew out with men on the corners to end it. Kyle Kendrick (10-8) allowed five runs and six hits in six innings. He also had an RBI single.
Mets 3, Rockies 2
CLEVELAND Justin Verlander dominated for eight innings and Don Kelly hit a three-run homer off Justin Masterson, leading the Detroit Tigers to their 10th straight win. Verlander (12-8) allowed one run and four hits as the Tigers beat the Indians for 10th time in 11 games and opened a five-game lead over Cleveland in the AL Central. Kelly connected in the fifth inning off Masterson (13-8) and Miguel Cabrera picked up his 100th RBI as the Tigers improved to 11-3 against their nearest division rival. The Indians, who are 24-10 against the Centrals three other teams, have to hope they can win the next two over Detroit to split the series. To do that, theyll have to beat Doug Fister and Max Scherzer.
Twins 7, Royals 0
NEW YORK Eric Young made a diving catch to take a go-ahead hit away from Todd Helton in the sixth inning, then raced home with the tiebreaking run in the eighth, and the New York Mets beat the Colorado Rockies. The Rockies have lost 12 of 18 since the All-Star break and have scored five runs in their last three games. LaTroy Hawkins gave up a pair of two-out singles in the ninth before Ike Davis made a diving catch on Yorvit Torrealbas sinking liner foul down the first base line. It was Hawkins first save since May 6, 2012, for the Angels. Scott Atchison (2-0) pitched a scoreless eighth inning. Eric Young led off the eighth with a single against Wilton Lopez (1-4). He was able to take second on Marlon Byrds deep fly, putting him in position to make it home on Juan Lagares infield single, a slow chopper to second base, that he just barely beat out.
Braves 2, Nationals 1
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Andrew Albers allowed four hits while pitching into the ninth inning in his major league debut, easily outdueling Royals ace James Shields and leading the Minnesota Twins to a victory over Kansas City. The first big leaguer from Saskatchewan in more than 20 years, Albers at one point retired 15 straight. He was two outs shy of his third straight complete game dating back to Triple-A Rochester, and the first shutout in a big league debut since Detroits Andy Van Hekken did it in 2002. The Twins took most of the pressure off with a big night at the plate. Brian Dozier homered and drove in three runs, and Justin Morneau and Chris Colabello also went deep for the Twins. INTERLEAGUE

WASHINGTON Hit by a pitch two innings after homering, Bryce Harper jawed and pointed at Atlantas Julio Teheran, and the dugouts and bullpens emptied, but the only haymakers thrown during the NL East-leading Braves victory over the Nationals came from the teams Twitter feeds. All in all, it was the sort of stuff rivalries and high-drama playoff chases are made of.
CINCINNATI Jay Bruce homered and made a run-saving catch on the warning track, and Mat Latos pitched into the eighth inning against Oaklands slumping lineup on Tuesday night, leading the Cincinnati Reds to a victory over the Athletics. The Reds had dropped seven of nine and were coming off what players called an embarrassing weekend against St. Louis losses of 13-3 and 15-2. They found an American League team struggling even more. The Westleading Athletics have lost five of six. Latos (11-3) allowed four hits through 7 1-3 shutout innings, leaving him 3-0 in his last four starts. Aroldis Chapman gave up Derek Norris two-out homer in the ninth while getting his 26th save in 30 chances.
Hes Happ-y to be back on mound for Toronto

SEATTLE After three months out of the Toronto Blue Jays rotation, J.A. Happ is ready to make his return. Happ spoke Tuesday before Torontos game against Seattle. Hell make his rst start for the Blue Jays since May 7 on Wednesday when Toronto closes out a three-game series against Seattle. Im still frustrated and I still wanted to obviously be back sooner. I am happy about the way I feel now and I am happy to nally be here after all that because it wasnt necessarily, rehabs never fun, this kind of stuff wasnt fun, Happ said. Like I said before, makes it worth all that, worth it now being back here and to get out there tomorrow.
Happ suffered a skull fracture and a sprained right knee when he fell to the ground in pain after being struck behind the left ear by a liner off the bat of Tampa Bays Desmond Jennings on May 7. Happ left the eld on the stretcher and spent the night in hospital. That was the start of a lengthy rehab process, although recovery from his head injury took only a few weeks. Happy said the head injury he could have pitched through. What delayed his return to the rotation was the knee injury where he strained a pair of ligaments. Happ was activated from the 60-day disabled list on Monday and came to the ballpark for the rst time Tuesday. I dont know ofcially what
their time frame was. In my mind, I thought it was going to be two weeks, and then three weeks, and then four to six and then six to eight. It just kept jumping, Happ said. That was the most frustrating thing: I wasnt able to turn a corner when I was hoping I would. Finally, I have lately and its been getting better. Happ had three rehab starts with Triple-A Buffalo, and went 0-2 with a 6.75 ERA in 13 1-3 innings. The lefty had gone 2-2 with a 4.91 ERA in seven starts with Toronto before being injured. He said hes not nervous about returning. Not about being hit again or anything like that. Obviously testing the knee a little bit, but it kept responding and its been getting better and better, Happ said.

NEW YORK The Miami Heat will open their title defense against the Chicago Bulls on Oct. 29 in the expected return of Derrick Rose, with an all-Los Angeles matchup later that night in the Lakers rst game without Dwight Howard and the Clippers rst with Doc Rivers. The NBAs 201314 schedule, released Tuesday, also features a potential LeBron JamesKobe Bryant duel on Christmas in Los Angeles,
right after scoring stars Carmelo Anthony and Kevin Durant match up across the country in New York. Howards rst visit to the Lakers since leaving for Houston as a free agent doesnt come until Feb. 19, giving Bryant plenty of time to get back to full strength from his torn Achilles tendon near the end of last season. The Indiana Pacers host the Orlando Magic in the opening game of the season, about the time the Heat are holding another championship ring ceremony. Then Miami will

try to give Rose a rough welcome back in whats likely to be his rst NBA game since tearing his knee in the opening game of the 2012 playoffs. Most teams open on Oct. 30. Two nights later, the Heat will serve as the opponent for the new-look Brooklyn Nets first home game since acquiring Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce from Boston. That duo, which helped lead the Celtics to the 2008 NBA championship, will make its emotional return to Boston on Jan. 26. Rivers will coach his rst game back there on Dec. 11 one night after the Celtics see Garnett and Pierce for the rst time in Brooklyn. Rivers will then renew acquaintances with his two star players on Dec. 12 at Barclays Center.

GLENDALE, Ariz. The Phoenix Coyotes spent four years looking over their shoulders as numerous potential owners came forward then fell away. Rumors of relocation cropped up, the team supposedly headed back to Winnipeg, where it originated, or to someplace new like Seattle. Finally, after all the ts and starts, distractions and innuendo, the Coyotes nally have an owner and a home. IceArizona completed its purchase of the franchise from the NHL on Monday and received approval from the leagues Board of Governors, keeping the Coyotes in the desert for the foreseeable future. Completion of the sale triggers a $225 million lease agreement for Jobing.com Arena reached last month
by the city of Glendale and Renaissance Sports and Entertainment, managing partner of IceArizona. Im ecstatic, new Coyotes chairman and governor George Gosbee said on a conference call. It was a complicated transaction, probably one of the most complicated transactions Ive worked on in 21 years in the nancial business, but a lot of hard of work and support kept us going through the process. Now we can start focusing on what matters and thats building a winning organization here in the Valley. The Coyotes have been operated by the league since former owner Jerry Moyes took the franchise into bankruptcy in 2009. RSE, headed by Gosbee and Anthony LeBlanc, will nally give the franchise some much-needed stability and allow it to compete on even nancial ground with the rest of the league.

Peyton Manning says age is just a number

By ARNIE STAPLETON
AP Pro Football Writer
ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Peyton Manning knows that at age 37, hes long in tooth and short on time, at least by NFL standards. Yet, the annual inux of 22-year-olds who are everstronger, ever-tter and ever-faster have him feeling like a youngster himself. They keep him on his toes, spry in body, mind and spirit. So do the athletic trainers and the strength staff who monitor his neverending rehab, the new offensive coordinator whos barking into his ear on game day, the new position coach and his new slot receiver extraordinaire, Wes Welker. Yeah, certainly Im still learning, Manning told The Associated Press in an interview after practice Tuesday. You still learn when you have a new offensive coordinator in Adam Gase, a new quarterbacks coach in Greg Knapp, whos been around football for a while and Im learning some of his coaching philosophies. Any time youre constantly learning, I think that does make you feel young. That makes you feel like all the other players. Sometimes when you have a little variety, that does keep things kind of fresh and keeps you stimulated. But football, it doesnt really matter how old you are or how young you are, youre all ghting for the same goal. And so, I love practicing every day. I love being out there with the guys, I love hanging out in the locker room when you have a free minute and having some laughs but working in the weight room. So, I feel very much like one of the guys. And he plays very much like he always has. Manning had a terric comeback last season and he looks even better this summer. No less an expert than Hall of Famer John Elway, who just happens to be his boss, said the ball is coming off Mannings hand much better than it ever did last season, when the fourtime MVP won Comeback Player of the Year after rebounding from a series of neck injuries and surgeries that affected a nerve that runs into his right triceps. Manning set Broncos single-season records in
nearly every major passing category in 2012, including completions (400), completion percentage (68.6), yards passing (4,659), TD passes (37), QB rating (105.8) and 300yard games (nine) after missing his nal season in Indianapolis in 2011. Yet after leading Denver to an AFC-best 13-3 record, the Broncos 11-game winning streak came crashing to a halt with a 38-35 loss to eventual Super Bowl champion Baltimore on a frigid January afternoon in the Rocky Mountains. The Ravens and Broncos kick off the 2013 season in Denver on Sept. 5, and in a twist, its the Broncos who have been getting all the love as the trendy Super Bowl pick this season, not the defending champions who actually got to hoist the Lombardi Trophy back in February.
On the rst day of training camp, Manning said, We still kind of have a scar from losing that playoff game and I think players need to kind of be reminded of that daily, use that to drive them, to fuel them to make us a better team. Manning said Tuesday that he doesnt think any of his teammates have put that loss in their rearview but instead have kept it on their dashboard, where they can see it every day and never forget the pain of coming up short. Youd better have a drive. Youd better have a goal for every season, a hunger, whatever you want to call it, a thirst, a little re in your belly, so I think certainly our teams had that and its about trying to go a little farther, trying to nish, Manning said. I think guys have worked hard all offseason.
PHILADELPHIA Wide receiver Riley Cooper returned to the Philadelphia Eagles Tuesday after a four-day excused absence to undergo sensitivity training after he was caught on lm yelling a racial slur before a Kenny Chesney concert. Cooper, in his fourth year out of the University of Florida, seemed remorseful during an eight-minute press conference with the media after the Eagles and New England Patriots began what will be a threeday practice routine before Friday nights preseason opener. Its great to be back doing what I love to do, play football, Cooper said. I realize being in the NFL you have responsibility to behave on and off the eld. I realize that. I realize how many people I hurt, how many families I hurt, how many kids I hurt. Its going to be tough. Im going to live with this every day the rest
of my life. Its one of those things you cant let affect your play on the eld. Video of Coopers racial slur surfaced Wednesday. He was immediately ned an undisclosed amount by the team, but was not suspended. Ironically, two days earlier he was promoted to the starting lineup after Jeremy Maclin suffered a season-ending injury. Last Friday, Eagles coach Chip Kelly announced that Cooper was given time off to seek counseling. Kelly did not put a timetable on his return. Four days later, he was back at practice and caught two touchdown passes against the Patriots defense. My concern wasnt how he practiced, Kelly said after practice. Its just him with the team itself and to get the chance to make sure he got to talk to every single guy so that they understood how we felt, what he did, and understand that hes truly sorry for what he did.
Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Riley Cooper, left, and Damaris Johnson talk during a joint football workout with the New England Patriots, Tuesday afternoon in Philadelphia.

Cooper said he talked to every one of his teammates, face to face, and apologized. I told them I dont want you to forgive me. That puts the burden on you. I want it all on me. I apologized, he said. They could tell it was from the heart. They know Im not
that kind of person. It feels good to have the support of the guys. After one of his touchdown passes, he got a chest bump from teammate and fellow wide receiver Jason Avant, who is an AfricanAmerican, and high ves from several other teammates.
Connor up for probation in airport case

PHILADELPHIA New York Giants linebacker Dan Connor is on track to resolve a criminal case for having a switchblade in his luggage at the Philadelphia airport. Connor is scheduled to enter a pretrial diversion program in which his
record would be expunged if he stays out of trouble. Michael Diamondstein, a lawyer for the 27-year-old, says the four-inch switchblade was a gag gift. He says Connor had no idea the knife was in his carry-on when he went to the airport on July 6 on his way to a wedding in Pittsburgh.
Connor was not in court Tuesday. His next hearing is Aug. 16. The former Penn State AllAmerican has also played for the Carolina Panthers and Dallas Cowboys. He grew up in Wallingford, near Philadelphia. Court records list his current residence as Nutley, N.J.

Trade deficit hovers at 3 -year low

The U.S. trade decit narrowed sharply in June to its lowest level in more than 3 years. Exports rose to all-time high and imports declined, signs that economic growth could be stronger than previously thought. The Commerce Department said Tuesday the June decit fell 22.4 percent to $34.2 billion. Thats the lowest since October 2009 and down from Mays imbalance of $44.1 billion, which was revised lower. Exports rose 2.2 percent to $191.2 billion in June. U.S. companies shipped more aircraft engines, telecommunications equipment, heavy machinery and farm goods. Imports dropped 2.5 percent to $225.4 billion. Oil imports declined to the lowest level in more than two years. A smaller trade decit lifts growth because it means consumers and businesses are spending less on foreign goods than companies are taking in from overseas sales. The steep decline in the June decit could lead the government to revise its growth estimate for the April-June quarter a little higher.
IN BRIEF
Quality helps Americans keep old cars longer

TRAVERSE CITY, Mich. Americans are keeping their cars and trucks longer than ever, and even with new car sales increasing, the average age will continue to rise, an industry research firm says. The average age of the 247 million cars and trucks on U.S. roads hit a record of 11.4 years in January, the latest figures available from state registration data gathered by the Polk research firm. Thats up from 11.2 years in 2012, and nearly two full years older than in 2007, before the start of the Great Recession, Polk said Tuesday. People are keeping their cars because the quality is so much better and they are trying to avoid the monthly payments, said Mark Seng, a Polk vice president. The annual percentage of cars and trucks sent to the scrap yard has dropped 50 percent since the recession, he said. Cars are just lasting longer, he said. The company doesnt see the age dropping for at least five years, even though U.S. vehicle sales are running at an annual rate of around 15.5 million, which is near pre-recession levels. And it predicts that the percentage of cars age 12 or older will actually rise in the next five years. The change creates a big opportunity for repair shops and auto-parts stores, Seng said. Customers from independent and chain repair shops should be paying close attention to their business plans and making concerted efforts to retain business among the do-it-for-me audience, while retailers have a unique and growing opportunity with potential consumers wrenching on their own vehicles, he said. U.S. sales have risen gradually from a 30-year low of 10.4 million in 2009 because of low interest rates, appealing new models and pent-up demand as people replace aging vehicles they kept through the recession. The sales rebound prompted Polk to raise its estimate of the total number of vehicles on U.S. roads by 5 percent to more than 260 million in five years. But Seng said many people intend to keep running their older cars into the future, adding he cant remember another time that the average age has grown as quickly. The growth rate in the average age will slow in the coming years, but wont start falling until new-car sales rise and stay high for several years. Older vehicles would have to be scrapped at a higher rate, as well, he said. With the quality of the vehicles, thats not going to happen, Seng said. More people also are financing cars for 72 months, meaning theyll keep their cars for at least six years and probably longer, Seng said.
US home prices continue to climb

U.S. home prices surged 11.9 percent in June from a year earlier, reecting stronger demand amid a tight supply of homes for sale. CoreLogic, a real estate data provider, said Tuesday that home prices climbed on an annual basis in 48 states. They fell only in Mississippi and Delaware. And all but one of the 100 largest cities reported price gains. Nevada led all states with an annual gain of 26.5 percent. That was followed by California (21.4 percent), Wyoming (16.7 percent), Arizona (16.2 percent) and Georgia (14.3 percent).
Decade-long Australia mining boom turns to bust

Chinese economic slowdown is hurting industry

Taco Bell is banking on breakfast traffic

Breakfast menu, featuring a waffle taco, will go national next year

restaurant chains are already paying for xed costs such as rent and electricity, the thinking is that they want to ring up as many sales as possible throughout the day, not just during the busy lunch and dinner hours. In industry jargon, executives often refer to this concept as expanding dayparts. McDonalds, for example, has been testing an After Midnight menu that mixes breakfast and lunch items. Taco Bell has also been promoting a Happier Hour, which features snacks and drinks intended to attract customers in the late afternoon, when business tends to be slower. Yum Brands Inc., the parent company of Taco Bell, clearly sees breakfast as its next big opportunity. In a conference call with analysts last month, Yum President Richard Carucci said that breakfast has accounted for about 4 percent of sales in restaurants where its been available. But this is before weve now dialed it up, he noted. Since they were introduced in March, the wafe tacos have undergone some tweaks, including the frying time and temperature, Niccol said. The shape of the taco, which has 460 calories and 30 grams of fat, was changed to make it easier to hold the stufng. If it does as well in the expanded test as it did at the ve locations, Niccol said he doesnt see why it wouldnt be on the national menu.
Oil and gas deal sealed in Somalia

Somalias government has signed an oil and gas exploration deal with a newly formed British company, the rst such agreement by a central government in Somalia after decades of conict. The deal with Soma Oil and Gas allows the company to conduct seismic surveys in Somalias territorial waters and in limited onshore regions. The companys chief executive, Robert Sheppard, said Tuesday that Somalia remains signicantly underexplored in the oil and gas sector despite recent discoveries across East Africa. Uganda, Kenya and Tanzania are among nations with recent discoveries. Somalias Mogadishu-based government said it expects the deal will attract new development in an area of immense economic potential for the nation.

MACKAY, Australia The Australian mining boom built over a decade on Chinese hunger for energy and raw materials is turning into bust for many business owners as Chinas cooling growth reverberates through a country accustomed to winning from the rise of an Asian economic giant. Endowed with vast mineral resources, Australia has been the envy of the Western world for avoiding recession during the global nancial crisis while other wealthy countries drowned in debt. But the country now faces a potentially painful transition as it weans itself off a heavy reliance on its two biggest exports, coal and iron ore. Australias dilemma underscores that Chinas long run of supercharged growth has given it enough weight in the world economy to create not only winners, but losers too when its own fortunes change. Trade between Australia and China equaled 7.6 percent of Australias $1.5 trillion economy last year, a dramatic threefold increase from a decade earlier, according to an Associated Press analysis of trade data. During that time, mining companies gushed multibillion-dollar prots while jobs as mundane as maintenance commanded salaries above $120,000. Now the downside of that tight embrace is being felt across Australias mining heartlands

and in its bustling cities. The number of jobless is expected to increase more than 70,000 in coming months and the governments nances are turning a deeper shade of red, forcing cuts to public services. Andrew Howard has done well from buying and selling jumbosized earth moving equipment from his base at an industrial estate in the tropical northeast coast city of Mackay, the largest mining service center in Australias richest coal country, the Bowen Basin. At the height of the global nancial crisis, he traveled to the United States to buy up machinery cheap in a depressed economy and later sold it to a resurgent Australian mining industry. But now Howard plans to shut the doors of his business AFG Equipment in late August after operating for a decade

that tracked the rise and fall of Australias mineral boom. Theres just absolutely nothing happening. Were just treading water, he said. It may bounce back in 12 months, it may bounce back in ve years, its hard to say. Tim Miles, chairman of the Mackay Chamber of Commerce, said the mining downturn struck suddenly in the space of a few months late last year with widespread economic ramications. It stopped very quickly so a lot of people have had to downsize their businesses to suit the new market, Miles said. Twelve months ago we were in a boom that you didnt have to do a lot to make money. The work just owed through the door, Miles said. But now people actually have to get off their backside and work hard to make a living.

NEW YORK Taco Bell says its expanding its small test of wafe tacos, as it prepares to take its breakfast menu national sometime next year. The fast-food chain says the wafe taco, which includes scrambled eggs, sausage and a side of syrup, was the top seller during breakfast hours at the ve Southern California restaurants where they were tested earlier this year. Now the company wants to see how it would fare on a bigger scale; the wafe tacos and a full breakfast menu will be expanded to about 100 restaurants in Fresno, Calif.; Omaha, Neb.; and Chattanooga, Tenn., starting Thursday. Brian Niccol, president of Taco Bell, said the idea is partly to get a better sense of how well restaurants will be able to handle the added operational pressure from the wafe tacos. You only get one shot when you go with big items, he said. Taco Bell already offers breakfast at about 850 locations in 10 Western states and has been tinkering with new items such as the wafe taco before rolling it out to its 6,000 U.S. locations. Also being tested in the additional locations starting Thursday are a yogurt parfait and oatmeal. Taco Bell isnt alone in trying to serve food in different parts of the day. Since

Psst Want the secret to great barbecued babybacks?

ELIZABETH KARMEL Wham-inspired rib rub. You can make these on a gas or charcoal grill or a smoker. If you have never made ribs before, you need to know a few things. Buy a meaty rack with no bone-shine. This means that you should inspect your ribs to see how close the butcher got to the bone when they were cutting the ribs. If you can see a bit of the top of the bone on the rack when it is raw, there isnt enough meat on the ribs. When the ribs are cooked and the meat recedes from the bone, you will have a very bony rack. Make sure you buy racks of ribs that weigh 2 to 3 pounds each. Most recipes will tell you to remove the membrane from the ribs (and I used to do it, too). But the more I cooked ribs, the more I liked leaving the membrane on the back. One reason is that it holds the ribs together especially important if there is any bone-shine and it also is a good indicator of when the ribs are done. When the membrane pulls away from the back of the rack and looks like translucent parchment paper,
It has been years since I learned to make competitionworthy barbecued baby back ribs. And I still consider myself lucky to have learned from some of the best in the business. My rst year at the barbecue competition Memphis in May, the head cook from a team called Bubbas Bunch befriended me and taught me to make ribs the same way barbecue great John Willingham did. Willingham was the creator of the amazing all-purpose barbecue rub known as Wham Seasoning. And it is amazing stuff. After my rib tutorial, I made those ribs more times than I can count, and have taught them many times in my barbecue classes. I named the recipe after the team that taught me, and they are perfect for a rst-timer. Or if you are like me, it may become your go-to recipe for ribs. All you need are a love of great barbecue and three ingredients meaty baby back ribs, lemons and my
Most recipes will tell you to remove the membrane from the ribs (and I used to do it, too). But the more I cooked ribs, the more I liked leaving the membrane on the back.

you know the ribs are done. If you want, you can remove the membrane before you cut and serve the ribs. When you prep your ribs for the grill, squeeze a lemon over both sides of the ribs to refresh them. That little bit of acid creates a brightness, a clean canvas for your seasoning and helps the rub adhere to the meat. Next, season liberally by holding your hand about a foot above the racks and sprinkling the dry rub over the ribs evenly, like you are raining rib rub over the racks. Do it no more than 15 minutes before cooking. I like to use a rib grilling rack because it positions the ribs so that the hot air and smoke from the closed grill rotate equally around all of the racks of ribs and you can cook twice as many than if they lay at on the grates. As for the actual cooking, true barbecue demands indirect heat. This is what allows the meat to cook slowly, melting the fat and connective tissue. Barbecue also calls for smoke, so be sure to soak wood chips in advance. You can look for two visual clues when making ribs at home: the meat should pull away from the ends of the bones, which should be dry and dark; and the ribs should bend easily without breaking if you gently fold them over. That covers what you should do. Heres what not to do. First, dont parboil your
ribs. It isnt necessary, and it will rob your ribs of avor. Ribs should only take 2 to 3 hours to cook and they should be cooked from start to nish on your outdoor grill. Second, if you are a barbecue sauce lover, only put the sauce on the ribs during the nal 10 to 15 minutes of cooking. Otherwise the sugar in the sauce will burn while the ribs are still undercooked. If you follow these tips and the recipe below, you will be amazed at how easy it is to make ribs in your own backyard. All it takes is a little patience and a little love of the game. BUBBAS BUNCH BARBECUED BABY BACK RIBS Start to nish: 3 1/2 hours (30 minutes active) Servings: 8 Wood chips, for smoking For the rub: 2 tablespoons smoked paprika 2 tablespoons kosher salt 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar See BABYBACKS| 2C
One year ago, the beginning of a lifelong dream started. I knew for years that I wanted to own my own business. After months of research, I decided to host my first Pop Up Restaurant. A Pop Up Restaurant, for those of you who are not aware, is a temporary restaurant that opens for one night only and may open again in another location at a later date. Our rst event was in August 2012 at Jefferson Park in Pittston. We took a slightly run-down building, and with the help of some candles, great food and a lot of heart, we made the very first Pop Up Philbin Restaurant in NEPA. One year later, the Peculiar Culinary Co. has 15 pop-up events as well as catering events under our belt. Were grateful to our customers and friends and will continue to strive to make the most peculiar food possible. Here is a little taste of something to expect at the Pop Up on the Anniversary Tasting Dinner at Arturos in Dupont on Aug. 12. SPICY SALMON TARTARE Ingredients: 8 ounces fresh wild-caught salmon 2 tablespoons high-quality mayo 1 tablespoon Rooster Sriracha Sauce 1 teaspoon fresh cilantro 1 teaspoon fresh ginger 2 teaspoons toasted sesame seeds Salt and pepper Directions: Dice the fresh salmon as small as you can. In a separate bowl, mix together all the other ingredients. Mix salmon and mayo mixture and serve immediately. Serve over some sliced cucumbers or put over a salad.

Set aside. Any extra rub can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 6 months. Prepare the grill for indirect heat at medium-low. You are aiming to maintain a temperature of 300 F to 325 F. If using a charcoal grill, place the soaked wood chips directly on the hot charcoals. If using a gas grill, place the wood chips in a smoking box and set into the grill according to product directions. Squeeze and rub 1 lemon half over each rack of ribs. Sprinkle the ribs liberally with the spice rub, then let them sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. Place the ribs, bone-side down, in the center of the cooking grate, or in a rib holder or rack. Grill, covered, for 2 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and has pulled back from the ends of the rib bones. Begin checking the ribs after 1 1/2 hours in case your grill is running hot. Leave the ribs unattended and without opening the grill cover for the rst 30 minutes. If the ribs start to burn at the edges, stack them on top of one another in the very center of the grill and lower the heat slightly.

Whats so great about a TV shows final season coming out on DVD?

Whats so great about a TV series final season coming out on DVD? Then fans dont have to worry about collectus interruptus: when you start buying a shows season sets, only to see the studio suspend releases before all seasons come out. Its a common complaint, says Gord Lacey, who runs TVShowsonDVD.com, the Webs go-to site for news and data on series releases. They start to buy a five-season series, and it gets to Season 3, and then nothing else gets released. Just ask fans of Malcolm in the Middle first-season DVD in 2002; none since, with six to go. Or fans of coroner drama Crossing Jordan Season 1 out in 2008; five seasons still no-go. Even tube landmarks get discontinued, like NYPD Blue (four seasons out 2003-2006, eight unreleased) and Hill Street Blues (two out in 2006, five unreleased). But the real heartbreaker may be Foxs animated fave King of the Hill. Its DVD run reached halfway six seasons out 2003-2006 then nothing, leaving collectors seven seasons short. Some shows do eventually start up again. This month, Season 3 of sitcom George Lopez lands on DVD shelves after a sixyear wait. (Still to go: Seasons 4-6.) Four years after its previous set, the Michael J. Fox comedy Family Ties resumed on DVD in April; Season 7 completes the run Aug. 13. TV DVD guru Lacey says studios continually reassess series sales prospects. Sometimes the markets change a little bit George Lopez is doing well on Nick at Nite and maybe theyve lowered their sales expectations, if only to keep the TV DVD pipeline flowing. Third parties can rescue stalled shows, too. The pop culture mavens at DVD distributor Shout! Factory stepped up to create complete-series boxes after studios stopped midway on Barney Miller (after three seasons, of eight), Route 66 (three, of four), Leave It to Beaver (two, of six), and The Larry Sanders Show (one and a best-of, out of six seasons). Other series find renewed life online, as manufactured-ondemand DVDs not available in stores. WarnerArchive.com has become a busy seller of previously stalled series from several studios. After 80s sitcom Night Court offered its first three seasons at retail, the other six have been made available by mail. Thats how Showtimes The Big C is finishing its DVD run. Currently continuing on disc at Warner Archive are Knots Landing, Falcon Crest, Cheyenne, Party of Five, Rules of

Harried phone survey taker pleads for a little respect and courtesy
Dear Abby: Im hoping you will pass this on to your readers. Many of us these days have to work two jobs to make ends meet. In addition to a full-time job, I work a second one in a call center. Yes, Im one of those dreaded people who call and ask you to do a phone survey. What I would like to remind everyone is that we are just people on the other end of the line. I have been cursed at and called names you cant print in your column. I have had the phone slammed in my ear. A little courtesy would go a long way.
DEAR ABBY
ADVICE
If you dont want to participate in the survey, thats fine. We understand that. But have the guts to say, Not interested or No, thank you, and show a little respect. Were simply trying to do a job, earn a living and pay our bills like everybody else. Happy to Be Employed Dear Happy To Be Employed: I am not excusing poor manners, and I do sympathize with your position. But when companies make these incessant calls, they are entering peoples homes without being
invited, and it can make some of them very angry, particularly if they have been interrupted while they were eating, working, napping or caregiving. The people you call might be less hostile if they hadnt been called repeatedly and asked to participate in these surveys after they had refused four, five or six times and had asked not to be called again. They might be more polite if they hadnt registered on a Do Not Call list that was ignored. Dear Abby: My best friends mother has dementia. It is usually worse in the evenings, but she can function during the day somewhat. My friend and her husband both work,
leaving the mother alone at home during the day with the door locked from the outside so she cant wander off. I have told my friend many times how dangerous this is, but she continues to do it. It makes me sick worrying about her mother, but I dont know what to do about it. Friend in Florida Dear Friend: Your friend and her husband may have the best of intentions, but locking a demented person inside the house is not the answer to their problem. If a fire were to start, she might not be with it enough to know how to put it out or summon help. She could also fall and injure herself. A better solution would be to find a
day care program where the mother would have company, be entertained and safely looked after. Please suggest it to them. However, if they are not receptive, Adult Protective Services should be notified because the womans life could depend on it. To My Muslim Readers: Its time for the breaking of the Ramadan fast. Happy Eid al-Fitr, everyone. May God make yours a blessed feast.

HOROSCOPE
BY HOLIDAY MATHIS
ARIES (March 21-April 19). This is not a time for submission. Stand up, or people will think you dont care about your own needs and liberties. Of course you know you can make a difference. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). People imposing their values on other people makes you cringe, perhaps because youve seen enough of this in your lifetime. Luckily, strong feelings dont always have concrete effects. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Its been said that good friends are the best collectibles, though the person who said it didnt realize how little care and feeding vintage Marvel comics actually need. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Henry David Thoreau said, There is no remedy for love but to love more. This is hard to apply when youre trying to get over someone. But maybe the one you should love more is you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If you have to scream and shout to be heard, youre saying something no one wants to hear in the first place but that doesnt make it wrong. Sometimes what people need is an alarm clock. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Conflict is not always negative, and sometimes its totally necessary. A hierarchy or style of working will be established, so dont agree to anything you wouldnt want to be repeated tomorrow. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Strength can look like muscles. But not everyone with muscles is strong in the ways that count most. Strength can look like sweat and tears, too. And sometimes it looks like a hug. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Stick with those who have consistently pulled off the same thing youre trying to pull off. Youll learn something. You appreciate how beautiful it is when a plan comes together. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Self-sufficient people are a joy. You dont have to tell them what to do to help. They take charge of themselves, and whatever else needs doing, they do. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Mysteries abound. You dont always get the evidence you need, and thats fine. How boring life would be without days like today, when all you have to go on is your best guess. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). A person who is going through the stage you crossed several years ago will bring you back. Theres a chord that rings out from this persons heart, and the same chord resonates in you. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Again, the herculean task goes to you but you wont be handling it alone. When youre really trying to help people, assistance (celestial and otherwise) will be forthcoming whether or not you remember to ask for it. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Aug. 7). Its your year of total focus. Youll have to say no in order to make time for the yes youre totally committed to achieving. A certain someone is happy to have made the cut on your list of important people and will lavish you with love. Cancer and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 20, 1, 22, 24 and 39.
