WILKES-BARRE The city claims the
state Department of Community and Eco-
nomic Development approved the transfer
of $3 million earmarked for the Sterling Ho-
tel project to the Intermodal Transportation
Center in 2009 because CityVest failed to
meet conditions of the grant agreement.
CityVest on Wednesday issued a state-
ment in response that said a developer
pulled out of the Sterling Hotel project in
early2010whenit was learnedthe $3million
was redirected. CityVest disputes the citys
claim that certain conditions were not met.
According to Drew McLaughlin, adminis-
trativecoordinator for Mayor TomLeighton,
the city made the request to DCED in No-
vember 2009 to redirect the $3 million, and
the state agency approved it. The $3 million
was allocated through the states Redevelop-
ment Assistance Capital Program, which is
administered by the state Office of the Bud-
get.
CityVest did not meet the special condi-
tions of the grant agreement, and the state
was not going to give CityVest the $3 mil-
lion, McLaughlin said. The city was going
to lose the money entirely.
To avoid losing the funding, McLaughlin
said, the city requested it be redirected to
the Intermodal project, which through the
years hadgrownfroma project of $12million
to one totaling $27 million.
McLaughlin said the state agreed to the
transfer of the funding to help pay for un-
foreseen site conditions, scope changes, and
anticipated construction cost increases due
to initial delays which were out of the citys
control. He saidexamples of the unforeseen

President Barack Obama
announced plans Wednes-
day to pull 33,000 U.S.
troops out of Afghanistan
well before next years
election, signaling a rapid
drawdown sure to please
Americans weary of the
nearly decade-long war
and its costs.
The quick drawdown
will be faster than mili-
tary commanders had rec-
ommended. Instead, it re-
flects growing public
pressure to get out of Af-
ghanistan and to stop
33,000 to exit Afghanistan by 2012

Luzerne County commission-
ers voted Wednesday to appeal a
state order forcing the county to
reinstate36unionemployeeswho
were cut from the county payroll
when their department was out-
sourced nearly a year ago.
A state hearing examiner re-
cently ordered the county to re-
hire the workers and pay all their
lost wages and benefits.
The county appeal would be
heard by the Pennsylvania Labor
Relations Board, commissioners
said.
Ayears worthof pay for the im-
pacted former employees would
total morethan$1million, accord-
ing to payroll records from 2010.
The estimated cost of health in-
surance and other benefits for the
employees was not available.
Commissioner Thomas Coo-
ney said after Wednesdays on-
the-road meeting in Butler Town-
ship that complicated analysis
would be required to determine
the orders financial impact be-
cause it says the county must
make the employees whole.
Unemployment that has been
paid to the furloughed workers
would have to be deducted from
the payroll amounts owed, he
said. Theorder wouldalsorequire
the county to reimburse pay-
ments some of the workers made
to keep health insurance under
the Consolidated Omnibus Bud-
get Reconciliation Act, or CO-
BRA, he said.
Commissioners do not know if
the expense would have to come
out of thecountysstrappedgener-
al fund operating budget or state
andfederal fundingearmarkedfor
the employment programs that
had been provided by the impact-
ed workers, he said.
The ruling stemmed from an
unfair labor practices claim filed
against the county last May by
unionized employees of the coun-
tys Workforce Investment Devel-
opment Agency, which no longer
exists.
The union the American Fed-
erationof State, County &Munic-
ipal Employees, or AFSCME ar-
gued that the county played a role
intheoutsourcingof employment
programs for adults and under-
privileged youths and failed to ne-
gotiate the contracting out of jobs
withunionworkers as requiredby
their collective bargaining agree-
ment.
Commissioners maintain the
outsourcing was beyond their
control because it was initiated
and executed by the autonomous
Luzerne-Schuylkill Workforce In-
vestment Board.
Theorder, issuedbyhearingex-
aminer Thomas Leonard, also in-
structs the county toimmediately
rescind contracts with three pri-
vate companies that had been
hired to handle the outsourced
employment programs.
Commissioners also unani-
mouslyvotedWednesdaytogrant
the Greater Wilkes-Barre Cham-
ber of Business and Industrys re-
quest to postpone $4.7 million in
loan repayments until the econo-
my improves.
Chamber officials asked for the
deferral months ago, arguing the
organization is broke and must
sell landtocomeupwiththemon-
ey to repay the loans. Commis-
sioners said they did not want to
force the chamber to unload land
in a fire sale to pay the loans be-
cause the county may not receive
all the money owed.
The money came out of a com-
munity development business
loan fund.
County officials also voted to
createanewassistant solicitor po-
sitionat a salary of $39,884 to rep-
resent thecountyinmental health
commitment hearings. The new
position, which includes benefits,
will be funded by the state and
save roughly $40,000 because the
county wont renew contracts
with two attorneys who previous-
ly handled these hearings -- Ed-
wardCiarimboli andMichael But-
era, said county Solicitor Vito De-
Luca.
Contracts with both attorneys
expire at the end of the month, he
said. Those one-year contracts to-
taled $46,500 for Ciarimboli and
$48,500 for Butera, he said.
DeLuca said there were about
420 mental health hearings in the
past year, andabout 270werehan-
dled by the two attorneys.

Union employees were cut
from payroll when their
department was outsourced.

WYOMING The Northeast
Pennsylvania School District
Health Trust has spent nearly $2
million more than it took in dur-
ing the past 10 months, but that
was by design, Trust Board Co-
Chairman Ralph Scoda said.
It is part of an effort at surplus
management, Scoda said, after
the board met Wednesday. The
trust is a consortium of local
school districts formed in1999 to
pool resources and lower health
insurance costs.
Scoda noted the board had de-
cided to reduce the surplus by
$2.4 million this fiscal year, which
runs from July 1 to June 30. The
surplus, which once hovered
around $20 million, is about $14.8
million now, Scoda added.
The surplus became a bone of
contention with several districts
when it was near its peak, with
two districts Dallas andPittston
Areawithdrawingfromthetrust
because they felt the trust should
have lowered premiums rather
thanamass somuchmoney. Trust
officials have countered that a
healthy surplus is necessary be-
cause a few large claims can rap-
idly drain such reserves.
Dallas and Pittston Area sued
the trust in an effort to get what
theyclaimis their shareof thesur-
plus. Court-mandated accounting
shows the two districts paid $4.3
million more into the trust than
they received in benefit payments
or owed for administrative over-
head.
Both districts have said they
want the money to be put into a
separate reserve that would be
tapped solely for health insurance
coverage.
The trust argues that all mem-
bers agreed any money paid into
the trust stays with it unless the
trust itself dissolves. A non-jury
trial was heard the first week of
this month and both sides await a
ruling by Luzerne County Judge
Lewis Wetzel.
Scoda, the former business ad-
ministrator for Wilkes-Barre Area
School District, said the lawsuit
promptedthetrusts boardtovote
previously on a floor below
whichthesurplus will not go: $6.7
million.

ing was continued to allow his
court-appointed attorney, Ally-
son Kacmarski, more time to

City police charged Geasey
on multiple felony and misde-
meanor counts of aggravated
assault and simple assault for
the alleged slashing of six peo-
ple during a fight on May 6.
An arrest warrant was issued
for Geasey on May 11. He was
captured when city police
found him inside a Hazle Ave-

HAZLETON -- The Rental
Registration Ordinance and
maintenance of properties were
topics of heated discussion at
Wednesday nights City Council
meeting.
Residents citedproblems with
bug infestation, fire hazards and
increased criminal activity as
reasons to pass ordinance 2011-
13, which mandates increased
inspections and registration fees
charged to landlords.
People are afraid to go to
sleepat night, saidresident Jea-
nie Mope, who is running for
City Council. Recently, one of
our neighbors had a bullet come
into his living room.
AntonioRodriguez, a member
of the City Planning Committee,
pointed to other cities that have
made efforts to maintain the ap-
pearance of the community.
Such cities as Bloomsburg
and Carlisle, Pa., are a pleasure
to look at, Rodriguez said, indi-
cating that he hopes Hazleton
could also improve the mainte-
nance of its properties and its
general appearance.
I dont want the city of Hazle-
tonto look like a dump or a ghet-
to, hesaid. WeneedtosaveHa-
zleton.
But, Justine Crego, represent-
ing HALO, an alliance of city
landlords, cautioned that the or-
dinance, if enacted, might penal-
ize compliant landlords by as-
sessing them additional fees,
while out-of-state landlords have
failed to comply with existing
regulations.
She said city landlords would
closely review the ordinance be-
fore the final vote on it in late Ju-
ly.
Council member Jack Mun-
dee said landlords who resided
locally tended to take good care
of their properties, but out-of-
state landlords oftenhadlimited
contact with their tenants and
did not maintain their proper-
ties. He said the ordinance was
drafted to address the issue of
absentee landlords.
Council member Karin Cabell
saidthe ordinance wouldnot on-
ly provide regulations in regard
to rental properties, but also the
fees dictated by the ordinance
would make enforcement possi-
ble.
At this time, we just dont
have the manpower, said Ca-
bell, but if the ordinance is
passed, the city will have an ad-
ditional tool available to it to im-
prove the maintenance and ap-
pearance of city properties.
The ordinance will have its
second reading at councils next
meeting on July 20, and a final
vote will occur at the time.

WILKES-BARRE With the
minimum of members present,
the Luzerne County Home Rule
Transition Committee on
Wednesday approved an adver-
tisement for thenewcountyman-
ager, but held off advertising the
position.
Only six of the committee
members participatedinthe vote
that sparked debate about reveal-
ing the identities of the appli-
cants for the job of running the
county when the Home Rule
Charter takes effect next year.
Members raised concerns that
the release of the names fromthe
start would deter the most qual-
ified from applying, fearing that
their employers would find out
they were looking for another
job.
By a vote of 4-2 the committee
approved the inclusion of a sen-
tence proposed by committee
treasurer Susan Shoval that said,
Position finalists must be will-
ing to allow public disclosure of
their resumes in order to move
forward in the process.
Shoval, committee vice chair-
man Rob Bakewell, Veronica Cia-
ruffoli and Rick Heffron support-
ed the language.
Attorney JimBobeck, commit-
tee chairman, and Rick Morelli
opposed it. Bakewell participa-
ted by telephone.
Morelli, whose subcommittee
worked on the advertisement,
presentedafewoptions onthere-
leaseof thenames. Hesaidthead
could say nothing about releas-
ing the names; it could say the
nameswill bereleased; orit could
say the names may be released.
I think we need to play it safe
because we dont know what the
(county)council will do,hesaid.
The11-member council will be
elected in November and can de-
cide to disregard anything the
transition committee has done,
committee members said.
Shoval acknowledged that
suchanimportant votewas taken
with the quorumof six members
needed for the committee to con-
duct business.
Ima little uncomfortable that
only four of us voted on it, she
said.
Bobeck noted that he too
would consider discussing the is-
sue with more members.
The committee next meets on
July13. Bobeckaddedthat anoth-
er look at the issue would not af-
fect the proposed deadline of
Sept. 15 for applications. If the ad
was released by July 15, there
would be two full months of re-
sponse time.
Before the advertisement vote,
the committee also voted 5-1 to
approve the job description for
the manager. Heffron cast the
sole vote in opposition, saying
the charter contains the job de-
scription.
Commissioner Steve Urban ar-
rived after the votes. The com-
missioners helda meetinginBut-

UNION TWP. The North-
west Area School Board voted
5-4 Wednesday night to enact a
2011-2012 budget of about $17.4
million without any real estate
tax increases after voting down a
planthat wouldhave raisedprop-
erty taxes by 2 percent.
The millage rate would have
gone from 9.1986 to 9.2835. A
mill is $1intaxfor every$1,000in
assessed property valuation.
Before the vote, director Ran-
dy Tomassacci said he felt the
residents of the district, under
current economic conditions,
cant afford even a $20 increase
in their taxes and accordingly I
have to vote no.
Tomassaccis comments came
after Albert Melone Jr. of Albert
B. Melone Co., financial adviser
to the district, had outlined a
spending plan that would have
raised taxes by what he said is an
average of $17.42 per household.
Melone had described a series
of cuts in transportation, person-
nel and supplies that resulted in
the $17,378,000 plan he submit-
ted.
Directors Peter Lanza, Mi-
chael Pegarella, Daryl Morgan,
Albert Gordon voted with To-
massacci in rejecting increased
tax. GinaSchwartz, AltonFarver,
Gerald Conyer and board presi-
dent CharlesBracevotedfor Mel-
ones plan that would have raised
millage rates.
A second vote on a plan with-
out a tax increase passed 5-4.
Melone also noted that junior
high school sports for the 2011-
2012 year had been reinstated.
It was stated the revenue
shortfall that will occur because
of sustaining tax rates will be ab-
sorbed in a current fund balance
of $1,032.94.
Also, the board voted 7-2 to re-
tain Gary Powlus, recently re-
tired superintendent of the Ben-
ton Area School District, as act-
ing superintendent, on parttime,
per diem basis effective with
Tkatchs June 30 resignation.
Tkatch has accepted the ad-
ministrative director post at the
West Side Career and Technical
School. Brace said interviews
had been conducted last week to
find a fulltime replacement for
Tkatch.

ALBANY, N.Y. New Yorks
three top political leaders said
Wednesday they supported
several additional religious ex-
ceptions to a gay marriage bill
and were in critical negotia-
tions over wording.
Even if the exceptions are ap-
proved, however, the bill must
be sent to the Senate floor for a
vote by the Republican confer-
ence, most of whose members
oppose gay marriage.
Democratic Gov. Andrew
Cuomo, Senate Republican
leader Dean Skelos and Demo-
cratic Assembly Speaker Shel-
don Silver said that while there
was no deal on the religious ex-
ceptions, talks were encourag-
ing.
Were going back and forth
on language, Cuomo said
Wednesday. But we have not
hit any obstacles.

WILKES-BARRE
Strong hearing continued
A
sentencing hearing scheduled
Wednesday for convicted mur-
derer James Strong was continued at
the request of attorneys.
Strong, 59, was found guilty earlier
this month by a Luzerne County jury
of first-degree murder in the 1983
shooting death of John Strock in
Dorrance Township.
That jury was tasked with sentenc-
ing Strong to either life in prison or
the death penalty. After being unable
to reach a decision, Judge Thomas
Burke is now required to sentence
Strong to life in prison.
Strongs sentencing was delayed
Wednesday until June 29 due to con-

Corbett seeks feds help
Gov. Tom Corbett has asked the
Obama administration to provide
federal disaster aid that will help
governments and certain nonprofit
organizations in Bradford, Lycoming,
Sullivan, Tioga and
Wyoming counties
recover from a
devastating storm
that moved through
the region in April.
Corbett said
federal assistance is
necessary because
the magnitude of
the damage is beyond the response
capabilities of the state and local
governments.
If approved, state government and
local governments, as well as certain
nonprofit organizations in these
counties, could apply for federal aid
to pay 75 percent of the approved
cost of debris removal, emergency
services related to the disaster and
repairing or replacing damaged pub-
lic facilities.

State high court gets case
The state Supreme Court has
agreed to hear an appeal of a Superi-
or Court ruling that significantly
reduced the sentence of a man con-
victed of homicide by motor vehicle
while driving drunk for killing a
motorcyclist.
The Luzerne County District At-
torneys Office filed an appeal in
March in the case of Jeffrey Borrin of
Hazleton, who pleaded guilty in 2006
to causing the crash that killed Wil-
liam Butch Delaney of Plymouth
and seriously injured his wife, Linda.
Borrin was sentenced on May 18,
2006, to 107 to 214 months in prison,
but the sentence was overturned in
January based on a legal technicality
involving the wording of a verbal
order Judge Chester Muroski made
in imposing the sentence.
Muroski imposed a term of 36 to 72
months on the homicide charge. He
then imposed several terms of impris-
onment on six other charges and
directed they be served consecutive
to count one, the homicide charge.
By law, Muroski should have or-
dered each sentence on each charge
to be served consecutive to the prior
count, not to count one, as he stated.
By failing to do so, the other sentenc-
es were considered to run concur-
rent, or simultaneously, and not
consecutive to each other.

WILKES-BARRE Elvis Riccardi and
Michael Simonson went to Karen Kellys
house early in the morning on April 28,
2009, and asked for a ride to Shickshinny,
Kelly testified Wednesday.
Riccardi paced, Kelly testified, while Si-
monsonsat onacouchwithhis headinhis
hands.
(Riccardi kept saying) he didnt want
to go to the penitentiary that he did
somethingbad, Kellysaidinthethirdday
of testimony at Riccardis capital murder
trial.
Riccardi, 33, is charged in the death of
34-year-old Donald
Skiff. Police say Skiff
went missing on April
27, 2009, and his body
was found on June 4,
2009, in a wooded area
of Suscon Road in Jen-
kins Township.
Simonson has plead-
ed guilty to second-degree murder and
was sentenced to life in prison in August.
Testimony will continue this morning
before a jury of 10 women and five men.
Kelly, of Wilkes-Barre, testified the two
men gave her $20 for the ride to Riccardis
mothers home on Main Street in Shick-
shinny andthat there was noconversation
during the 30-minute ride.
Kelly said that Riccardi and Simonson
wouldslidedownintheseat whenapolice
car would drive by.
The men thanked her, she testified, and
Riccardi asked for a ride back to Wilkes-
Barre.
Riccardi seemed edgy, Kelly said, and
came by her home several times that
week, including on May 1 when, Kelly
said, shewas readingthenewspaper about
the missing Donald Skiff, whose Ford
Ranger truckwas foundburnedinthe Ply-
mouth Flats area just days before.
I said, This is what you did, Elvis?
and he said, Pretty face aint pretty no
more, Kelly testified.
Riccardi then went upstairs with Kellys
then-boyfriend. Kelly went to see why the
two men were locked in her bedroom for
so long when she heard Riccardi detailing
how Skiff was killed.
He said he (Skiff) was on his knees
with his head in the dirt and he (Riccardi)
was clubbing him with a branch, Kelly
said.
Kelly left the room and made a grocery
list becauseshewantedRiccardi out of the
house, she said.
I was scared. I believed it, Kelly said.
Under questioning by Riccardis attor-
ney, Mark Bufalino, Kelly testified she
didnt initially tell investigators about giv-
ingRiccardi a ride because she didnt have
a drivers license andwas afraidto get into
trouble.
She said she believed the story Riccardi
told her because hes strange and does
weird things.

JENKINS TWP. Every time re-
lentless rain inundates the Wyoming
ValleyandtheSusquehanna River ris-
es as it did this spring, a bowl of land
off River Street near theEighthStreet
bridge fills with water, soaking the
yards and basements of area resi-
dents.
On Wednesday, Luzerne County
Flood Protection Authority Director
Jim Brozena met with Jenkins Town-
ship officials andresidents of the Port
Blanchard section of the township
and toured Miller Street, where the
flooding is centered, to identify the
problem and discuss possible solu-
tions.
Residents said water begins seep-
ing from the ground on a piece of va-
cant land behind Miller Street after
periods of heavy rain. Fire Chief Dan
Kosisky said the fire department
pumped water out of the area for
about two months this spring, when
the region saw near-record rainfall.
John Romanuski, of Miller Street,
said his basement filled with water
this spring, and before that three
years ago, when the spring rains also
were heavy.
If it rains good every other month,
itll be here every other month, he
said.
Brozena said homes in the area ap-
pear to sit ina bowl borderedby high-
er ground and elevated railroad
tracks. As the river rises, groundwa-
ter cannot drain into the river.
Apumpingstationanddrainage ca-
nal could provide a possible solution
to mitigate the problem most of the
time, he said.
The question becomes, is this a
viable solutionor is it a stop-gap mea-
sure, Brozena said. What were try-
ing to do with mitigation is to solve
the problemcompletely. I think ev-
eryone needs to be cognizant of the
fact that it will work up to a certain
point.
To build the pumping station, the
project needs to be added to the
Wyoming Valley Levee System Miti-
gation Boards project list, and to do
that, further study identifying the
source of the water and the extent of
the area affected is needed, he said.

WILKES-BARRE TWP. The Jeho-
vahs Witnesses are coming.
Starting Friday, the religious sect will
host a series of three-day conventions at
the Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plaza
during the next three weekends, attract-
ing an estimated 12,000 to 14,000 total
attendees.
The Witnesses will host two Let
Gods Kingdom Come! conventions for
English speakers Friday through Sunday
and July 1-3, and a third for Spanish
speakers July 8-10. Larry Andrews, news
coordinator for the first convention, said
organizers expect about 4,000 to attend
each of the three, free weekend events.
There are about 800 to 900 Jehovahs
Witnesses in the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
area, and more in outlying regions, An-
drews said, but congregation members
from as far afield as State College, Wil-
liamsport and Wellsboro, and Elmira
and Binghamton, N.Y., will attend.
The conference should provide a wel-
come economic boost for area hotels,
restaurants and retailers.
The Luzerne County Convention and
Visitors Bureau estimates visitors stay-
ing overnight in the county spend about
$150 per day, so if all projected to attend
showup, thats a potential $2milliondai-
lyeconomic boost for area hotels, restau-
rants, gas stations, tourist venues and
other businesses.
I think that what we see is there is ab-
solute economic impact from conven-
tions and conferences and its good to
see that the communitys investment in
the infrastructure improvements to al-
low those kinds of events has paid off,
saidLarry Newman, vice president of ec-
onomic and community development
for the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of
Commerce.

Up to 14,000 Jehovahs Witnesses

$754,000.
LIUDirector Hal Bloss saidthe
Pennsylvania Department of
Education-approved cuts include
administration and personnel
contract salary freezes, program
cuts and furloughs.
Bloss said the 15 furloughed
positions included nine non-pro-
fessional clerical employees and
five teachers under contract with
LIU. He also said one retirement-
related opening would not be fil-
led and one professional em-
ployee was terminated for just
cause.
I understand that a lot of dis-
tricts are having a difficult time
with budgetary issues in the cur-
rent environment, said Bloss.
But honestly, our proposed bud-
get shows a 7.9 percent decrease
from 2010.

Al-Qaida militants escape
N
early 60 suspected al-Qaida mil-
itants tunneled their way out of a
Yemeni prison in the lawless south on
Wednesday, deepening the chaos of a
nation where protesters are trying to
topple the autocratic regime.
The escape from the Mukalla prison
in Hadramout province is the latest
sign that Islamic militants are seizing
on the mayhem to operate more freely,
something the U.S. fears will become
an increasing international threat if the
impoverished nation grows even more
unstable. Hundreds of Islamic militants
have also taken control of two southern
towns in recent weeks.
Much of Yemen has been paralyzed
by months of massive protests demand-
ing the ouster of longtime leader Ali
Abdullah Saleh. The crisis shifted to
armed street conflict between troops
loyal to Saleh and rival tribal fighters.

Anthony trial eyes trunk
A chemist who collected and tested
air samples from the trunk of Casey
Anthonys car testified Wednesday that
he couldnt say for sure there was ever
a body inside of it, statements that
conflict with prosecutors experts.
Defense witness Michael Sigman
pulled the samples from Anthonys
trunk six days after the skeletal re-
mains of Anthonys 2-year-old daughter
Caylee were discovered in a wooded
area in December 2008. He was one of
five witnesses to take the stand as the
defense continued to attack the prose-
cutions contentions that the toddler
was suffocated by duct tape and then
spent at least some time in the trunk.
Anthony is charged with first-degree
murder in her childs death. She has
pleaded not guilty and faces a possible
death sentence if convicted. The de-
fense says the toddler drowned in her
grandparents swimming pool.

that included lewd images to
a 12-year-old girl he randomly
dialed was arrested when he

meeting for sex, police said.
Willard Yoder, 26, faces
four counts of child solicita-
tion after being arrested June
15 in his hometown of Milroy,
about 45 miles southeast of
Indianapolis. A not-guilty
plea was entered on his behalf
during his initial hearing Fri-
day.
Connersville police Detec-
tive Craig Pennington said
authorities set up the meet-
ing after the girls mother
alerted them her daughter
was getting text messages
from someone she didnt
know. Pennington said the
girl turned her cellphone over
to her mother and the mother
acted as if she were the girl.
The mother made sure
this person understood that
this girl was 12 years old,
Pennington said.
Pennington said the mess-
ages started out innocent, but
eventually the man texting
wrote that he was a 21-year-
old Amish man named Wil-
lard and asked the girl if she
were horny, to send naked
pictures of herself and asked
if she wanted to make out.
Pennington said the man
continued to send texts and
the mother turned the cell-
phone over to police. He said
the cellphone was turned
over to Indiana State Police
who found at least 600 text
messages were sent, includ-
ing requests for nude photos
and asking if she wanted to
meet to have sex.
Pennington said Yoder also
sent five pictures and two vid-
eos to the girls cellphone,
some of which included
naked photos of him.

HARVEYS LAKE -- Random
safety checks may help limit
the number of excessively loud
motorcycles, said borough at-
torney Charles McCormick.
The proposal came in re-
sponse to complaints voiced
by residents at last months
council meeting.
At Tuesday nights meeting,
Rob Weaver said he and several
neighbors are getting tried of
the loud rumble from bikes
with altered exhaust systems.
Weaver supplied the council
with a copy of a noise ordi-
nance fromthe Lancaster area.
It has stood the test of
time, he said. Five other mu-
nicipalities in the Lancaster ar-
ea have passed the ordinance.
McCormick said he re-
viewed the ordinance and
found its coverage to be very
broad.
It would cover items like
noise from construction and
motorboats, McCormick said.
A better solution, McCor-
mick said, would be for police
to look for motorcycles with
exhaust systems that may have
not passed state vehicle in-
spections and those not dis-
playing current registration
stickers.
Police Chief Charles Musial
agreed.
Last month, Weaver told
council he had done some re-
search and found Harley-Da-
vidson, a popular motorcycle
manufacturer, has a warning
not to alter its bikes exhaust
systems due to potential in-
spection violations.
This does not stop people
fromspending $1,000 to $1,600
for kits with the straight line
exhaust systems, he said.
In other business, an amend-
ment to the zoning ordinance
was made to allow for the resi-
dential use of townhouses in a
commercial district. When the
zoning ordinance was updated
about two years ago, this use
was omitted.
Harveys Lake resident
suggests loud bike fix
Lancaster area ordinance to
deal with nuisance is
proposed as solution.

The director of the Keystone
Research Center said on Wednes-
day that while the director of the
Marcellus Shale Coalition called
his policy brief on job creation by
the natural gas industry in Penn-
sylvania a political attack, she
did not dispute his assertions.
The brief cites a state Depart-
ment of Labor and Industry re-
port showing that Marcellus-re-
lated industries have created less
than 10,000 jobs in recent years,
not the 48,000 jobs claimed in re-
cent press reports, noted re-
search center Executive Director
Stephen Herzenberg.
The exaggerated claims of
Marcellus-related job creation
stem from a confusion between
new hires and job growth. Job
growth, by definition, equals new
hires minus quits, firings and
retirements, he said.
Herzenberg said that rather
thancontest themainpoint of the
brief, coalition President and Ex-
ecutive Director Kathryn Klaber
inresponse to the brief combined
information on employment
changes in Marcellus-related in-
dustries that were addressed in
the brief with other information
on Marcellus industries that do
not relate to the industrys im-
pact on employment in the state.
Klaber also referred to ancil-
laryemployment impacts cascad-
ing through businesses across
the commonwealth.
No source or data are present-
ed to support the claimof these
ancillary employment impacts,
Herzenberg said.
Herzenberg said that state Re-
publican Party Executive Direc-
tor Mike Barley put out a state-
ment Wednesday that repeated
the erroneous claimthat the Mar-
cellus industry has created
48,000 jobs.
We think it is unfortunate that
the shale coalitionandMr. Barley
cant acknowledge that jobs and
new hires are not the same, he
said.

WASHINGTON Following
the letter of the lawand adhering
to higher court precedents would
guide his actions on the U.S. Dis-
trict Court for the Middle District
of Pennsylvania, not his years as a
labor lawyer, Scranton attorney
Robert Mariani toldaSenatecom-
mittee Wednesday.
Mariani was one of three Penn-
sylvania U.S. District Court nomi-
nees to receive a Senate Judiciary
Committee hearing Wednesday.
The committees top Republican
saidinaninterviewafter the hear-
ing that he doesnt think any of
them will have a problem being
confirmed for the lifetime judicial
appointment.
Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa,
the ranking Republican and the
only member of his party present
at the hearing for Mariani, West-
ern District nominees Cathy Bis-
soon and Mark Hornak and a
nominee for the district court
benchinFlorida, spent some time
probing Marianis views on labor
law issues such as collective bar-
gaining rights and at-will employ-
ment. The hearingwas chairedby
Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Con-
necticut, the only Democrat pre-
sent.
The committees judicial nomi-
nee questionnaire Mariani filled
out says he is a labor and employ-
ment law attorney who primarily
hasrepresentedunions, employee
benefit and public sector trust
funds and individual employees,
as well as someemployers, includ-
ing the University of Scranton.
Asked by Grassley about his
past criticism of at-will employ-
ment laws, Mariani responded
that, I do not view employment
as a right or an entitlement.
And whatever his views of at-
will employment law, it is a bed-
rock of Pennsylvania labor law
and those precedents would gov-
ernhis actions onthe bench, Mar-
iani said.
His guide-
lines as afederal
judge would be
precedents
handed down
by the U.S. Su-
preme Court
and the 3rd Cir-
cuit Court of
Appeals, which
includes Penn-
sylvania, Maria-
ni said.
I do not
come to the bench with any pre-
disposition whatsoever when it
comes to labor/management is-
sues, Mariani said.
In the interview after the hear-
ing, Grassley said that unless
something unexpected comes up,
approval by the committee and
confirmation by the full Senate
should occur.
At this point, I dont think any
of them (Mariani and the other
nominees at Wednesdays hear-
ing) will have trouble based on
what I heardtoday,Grassleysaid.
Inanother signthat his nomina-
tionis not controversial, Marianis
nomination has bipartisan sup-
port from Democratic Sen. Bob
Caseyof ScrantonandRepublican
Sen. Pat Toomey of Zionsville.
Toomey appeared along with
Casey at Wednesdays hearing to
introduce Mariani and the other
Pennsylvania nominees and laud
their nominations.
Toomey said Mariani and the
other twoPennsylvania nominees
all have the necessary experience
and skill to be fair and impartial
judges.
These attributes will serve
them very well if they are con-
firmed for the bench, and I hope
that the committee favorably re-
ports all threenominees tothefull
Senate, which I hope will then
promptly confirmthem, Toomey
said.
Casey said he has known Mar-
iani for years, practicinglawinthe
same city, and noted Mariani is a
sole proprietor lawyer, which also
means running his own business.
I cant say enough about his abil-
ity, his integrity, and his commit-
ment to do justice, Casey said.
Toomey called Mariani a litigator
with more than three decades of
experience, expert in his field
and one of the top lawyers in the
Scranton area.
Mariani could receive a Judici-
ary Committee vote sometime
thissummer. Becauseof abacklog
of judicial nominees awaiting full
Senate confirmation, that vote
maynot occur until later this year.

KINGSTON Once the high-
est point in the town, the steeple
at St. Ignatius Churchis beingre-
paired.
Built in 1885, the Roman Ca-
tholic Church at the corner of
NorthMaple Avenue andPringle
Street is the house of worship to
about 2,400 households. The
Rev. JohnLapera, pastor, saidthe
steeple was
in need of
repairs.
Were
preserving
it for the in-
tegrity of
the church
structure
andfor a vis-
ible sign of
the church
in the com-
munity, he
said. It has
been a part
of Kingstons skyline for a long
time.
When the church was built
about 126 years ago, the steeple
toweredover theWest Sidetown.
The top of the steeple the spire
is adorned with a cross that
stands 165 feet above ground.
The steeple evolved through
history, said Lapera, 55. Earlier
in history they were built to
house bell towers, and the bells
were rung to call people to wor-
ship for prayer services and
Masses. The spires were built
with a cross on top to give the
presence of Godinthe communi-
ty.
Lapera said the spire was re-
paired about 12 or 15 years ago.
He said the area below the spire
was not repaired and that is the
focus of the current project.
Walsh Sheet Metal Co., Scran-
ton, is the contractor hired to re-
pair the steeple at a cost of be-
tween $280,000 and $300,000,
Lapera said. He said a large part
of the cost was for the massive
scaffolding system needed to do
the job. Lapera said the project
should take three or four months
to complete and it should be fin-
ished by September or October.
He said 75 percent of the mon-
eyusedtofixthesteeplehasbeen
raised at the annual St. Ignatius
bazaar over the years. This years
bazaar begins tonight and runs
through Saturday from 6 to 11
p.m. at St. Anns Chapel grounds,
Loveland Avenue and Hoyt
Street.
Lapera, who grew up in Car-
bondale, will soon leave St. Igna-
tius to become pastor at St. Gre-
gorys in Clarks Green.
St. Ignatius is a blended par-
ish, Laperasaid, includingmem-
bers of the former St. Hedwigs
andSt. Marys parishes that were
on Zerby Avenue, Edwardsville.
Lapera said the Rev. John Po-
lednak will be the new pastor at
St. Ignatius. Polednak has been
serving as an episcopal vicar for
the bishopinthe southernregion
of the diocese.

questions unanswered, Casey
said in a statement. I have partic-
ularconcernsabout thespecificsof
the presidents plan including
whether this is the right balance to
responsiblybringour troops home
as fast as militarily feasible.
Caseysaidheplanstoraisethese
questions with Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton this morning dur-
ing a Senate Foreign Relations
Committee hearing, and with mil-
itary commanders and civilian
leaders when he visits the Afghan
regionlater inthe year.
But Marino said in a statement
after thespeechthat hehas serious
concerns about Obamas plan, and
worried that the decision was
based on discontent with a near-
decade-old war rather than clear
military strategy. He noted he was
in Afghanistan in March visiting
withtroops andmilitary leaders as
amemberof theHouseForeignRe-
lations Committee.
If the military leaders on the
ground say that this is the right
thingtodo, thenI will accept that,
hesaid. But I dont thinkthats the
case, especially after having spent
time with the troops and military
leadersjustafewmonthsago. Isaw
the success our surge forces have
made and the progress our troops
have made in training the Afghan
forces. But it will all befornaught if
we pull out our troops premature-
ly.
Barlettasaidthat, Obviously, Id
like to see American troops come
home. But the generals on the
groundknowmoreabout thesitua-
tion in Afghanistan than anyone in
Washington.
In a statement after the speech,
Barletta said that, The president
needs to listen to what they say
theyneedintermsof trooplevelsin
order to do the job. I have faith in
our commanders in Afghanistan,
soif Gen. (David) Petreaus andthe
others agree with this decision,
then I believe its the right deci-
sion."

day about the remains of Skiff
found on June 4, 2009.
Trooper Michael Boonetestified
to pictures he took of the body in a
wooded area in Jenkins Township.
Several pictures of Skiffs remains,
which were mostly skeletal, were
showed to jurors.
Luzerne County Coroner John
Corcoran said Skiffs death was a
homicide, but how his death oc-
curred is undetermined.
Undetermined, forensic pathol-
ogist Gary Ross said, because the
body was severely decomposed.
Jurors were shown several pho-
tos of the autopsy Ross performed,
including one of Skiffs skull witha
3/8-inch hole in the bottom of it
that Rosssaidhecouldnot explain.

Sheena Delazio, a Times Leader staff
writer, may be reached at 829-7235.
Newman said that without
the countys investment in fa-
cilities such as the arena, host-
ing a convention as large as
the Jehovahs Witnesses event
would have been impossible.
What facilities like the are-
na allowus to do is to compete
for and win conferences that
are statewide and regional
Mid-Atlantic; conferences that
we could never attract before,
and that translates into econom-
ic impact, he said.
Andrews said the areas amen-
ities were what attracted the Je-
hovahs Witnesses to the arena
for their first local conference
three years ago.
Wilkes-Barre works out to be
an excellent place for us to have
our conventions, with all the res-
taurants and places to stay, he
said.
Merle D. Mackin, executive di-
rector of the visitors bureau, said
large conferences also provide a
secondary economic boost long
after theyve ended.
Anytime we have visitors
coming in from outside the area,
it gives us an opportunity to
showcase the area, Mackin
said. Theyll have time to enjoy
some of the other attractions
and were hoping that they come
back and spend time visiting the
area.
Mackin and Visitors Bureau
Sales and Marketing Director Ja-
net Hall said the number of con-
ferences in the area and the ar-
eas tourism industry generally
are onthe rise, despite a sluggish
economy. County hotel tax reve-
nues rose 9 percent between
2009 and 2010, and the bureau
anticipates a gain of at least 5
percent this year as well.
Last year, the arena hosted a
statewide junior wrestling tour-
nament that gave the area a posi-
tive economic jolt, and a major
bowling convention and a gath-
ering of the Knights of Colum-
bus are on the horizon.
ECONOMY
spending hundreds of billions of
dollars on faraway conflict at a
time the U.S. government is
grappling with record deficits.
America, it is time to focus on
nation building here at home,
he said in a nationally televised
address from the White House.
The tide of war is receding.
Fewer of our sons and daughters
are serving in harms way. Weve
ended our combat mission in
Iraq, with 100,000 American
troops already out of that coun-
try. And even as there will be
dark days ahead in Afghanistan,
the light of a secure peace can be
seen in the distance. These long
wars will come to a responsible
end.
Obama said he will withdraw
10,000 troops by the end of this
year, with another 23,000 out by
September of next year at the
latest. Most will return to their
home bases the vast majority
of those in the U.S.
That would end the surge of
33,000 troops he announced in
December 2009, and leave about
68,000 U.S. troops there.
Obama will meet with NATO
allies next May in Chicago to
plot the final drawdown of those
and other allied troops by 2014,
when they hope Afghan forces
will be able to guard against any
comeback by al-Qaida terrorists
or the Taliban regime that had
protected them.
Its possible to draw down the
troops now, he said, because the
long war and surge of extra
forces has achieved its goal: de-
nying a haven to the al-Qaida ter-
ror network, which used Afghan-
istan as its base while planning
its 2001 attacks on the U.S.
We are starting this draw-
down from a position of
strength, Obama said. Al-Qai-
da is under more pressure thanat
any time since 9/11. Together
with the Pakistanis, we have tak-
en out more than half of al-Qai-
das leadership. And thanks to
our intelligence professionals
and Special Forces, we killed
Osama bin Laden, the only lead-
er that al-Qaida had ever
known.
After weeks of internal de-
bates, Obama settled on a mid-
dle-of-the-road approach be-
tween the militarys recommen-
dations of a slower drawdown
and the push for a faster with-
drawal coming from members of
both major political parties, in-
cluding Vice President Joe Biden
and Sen. Richard Lugar, R-Ind., a
top member of the Senate For-
eign Relations Committee.
Administration officials
stressed that the 33,000 troops
could be withdrawn even faster,
but left no room for a slower
withdrawal.

HARRISBURG Gov. Tom
Corbett and top Republican state
lawmakers closeted themselves
inprivate meetings Wednesdayin
an attempt to sort out their re-
maining differences on a state
budget ahead of the June 30 end
of the states fiscal year.
They gave little detail about
what, if any, progress they made.
Morningandeveningmeetings
in the Republican governors of-
fices broke up without negotia-
tors announcing any agreement
or revealingwheretheir differenc-
es remain in a spending plan that
is expected to tally about 3 per-
cent less than this years budget
and deliver deep cuts to spending
on education.
I feel confident that well have
a budget done on time, Corbett
saidafter emergingfromWednes-
day evenings hour-plus meeting.
The meetings were held on the
eveof what SenateMajorityLead-
er Dominic Pileggi, R-Delaware,
said is the deadline to get a hand-
shake agreement in time to write
bills and hold votes to enact a
budget before the new budget
year starts July 1.
After a Wednesday morning
meeting, hewarnedthat timewas
ticking down.
We reminded everyone that
certainly, looking at the calendar,
that the time for legislation is
tightening, so it introduces a cer-
tain increased level of urgency,
Pileggi said.
Bills need to be drafted. They
needtobe moved. There needs to
be floor action. There needs to be
committee action. ... (A hand-
shake agreement) really needs to
happen by tomorrow.
Corbett and his fellowRepubli-
cans who control the Legislature
have repeatedly said they are fo-
cused on producing a budget that
spends less than this years, does
not raise taxes and is signed be-
fore July 1.
More talks were expected to-
day. House Majority Leader Mike
Turzai, R-Allegheny, indicated
differences remain in the amount
of spending the parties Senate
leaders, House leaders and the
governor are discussing.
In general, negotiations are
said to revolve around the level of
aid for public schools, universi-
ties, hospital carefor thepoor and
social services.
The spending package is ex-
pected to be $27.3 billion or less
this years budget is $28 billion
as Corbett insists on cuts in
state government and no tax in-
creases to balance a projected
multibillion-dollar deficit driven
by lackluster tax collections.
Also, Corbett is pressing thus-
far reluctant lawmakers to pass a
school-vouchers bill by June 30,
andSenateRepublicans arepress-
ing for passage of a levy on Mar-
cellus Shale natural gas drilling,
despite Corbetts preference to
wait until after his task force
makes a recommendation, ex-
pected next month.
In the eight years under Cor-
betts predecessor, Democratic
Gov. Ed Rendell, no budget was
signed and completed before July
1.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. The
famed Churchill Downs horse
race track, longtime home to the
Kentucky Derby, was hit by a pos-
sible tornado Wednesday, knock-
ing down parts of barns and chas-
ing out horses that ran loose be-
fore being corralled, officials
said.
Hours after the storm hit, offi-
cials had no reports of injuries to
humans or horses at the track on
the southwestern side of Louis-
ville. Elsewhere in the city, high
water from torrential rains
trapped a couple of people in
their cars, a mayors spokesman
said, and a hospital reported that
it treated two patients hit by fall-
ing trees.
The National Weather Service
said radar was tracking a con-
firmed tornado near the track
and the University of Louisville
campus about 8:10 p.m. Though
no races are run on Wednesdays,
a simulcast of races elsewhere
was being shown in the theater,
and a Texas Hold empoker tour-
nament was being held, officials
said.
At least nine barns were dam-
aged, as was the chapel. The barn
damage was on the backside of
the track where workers live in
the dorms, said track President
Kevin Flanery.
Its a hell of a mess back here,
track spokesmanJohnAsher said
of the barn area where the dam-
age was concentrated.
The iconic twin spires above
the clubhouse overlooking the
finish line were not apparently
damaged, Flanery said.
Clearly weve got several
barns with significant damage
andwere just tryingtomake sure
people and the animals are safe
first, Flanery said.
Some horses had gotten loose
for a time, but were later caught,
Asher said. At least 1,300 horses
were stabled at Churchill, said
vice president of racing Donnie
Richardson.

Hotel Sterling supporters
have questions and ideas
T
he Sterling Hotel, Wilkes-Barres 113-
year-old landmark, deserves to be re-
stored. We are members of the Save
Our Sterling group, and we have held
rallies at the site every Friday and Sat-
urday since March 25. We are the ones
who hear the comments of the people as
they walk and drive by the building.
An overwhelming majority wants to
preserve the hotel. Their feedback is en-
thusiastic and encouraging; many people
have offered ideas about how to save the
Sterling. We have heard from several local
construction companies who want to be
involved, and some have offered to donate
materials.
The question most people ask is why
wasnt the structure sealed and secured
years ago? We cant undo whats been
done. The Stegmaier building was in hor-
rendous shape at one time and was
brought back to reflect the gem that it is.
This can happen to the Hotel Sterling.
And, by the way, what a novel idea: a hotel
on the river! No wonder it was built there
in the first place!
We appeal to the county commissioners:
instead of allocating $1 million to obliter-
ate a cornerstone of our city, why not allo-
cate the money to seal the building?
A public meeting should be organized by
county officials so that the communitys
voice can be heard. The voice of the people
should be instrumental in deciding the fate
of the Sterling. The hotel has looked out
over the Susquehanna for many years and
has served the people well. So, let us not
rush to judgment. Lets come together as a
community and offer new dialogue and
new viewpoints. Lets not ruin another
chance to restore a building that has been
a part of peoples lives for more than a
century.

A FEW QUOTES about the
safety of Marcellus shale
frack drilling:
Im not aware of any
proven case where the
fracking process itself has
affected water. Lisa Jack-
son, President Obamas Environmental
Protection Agency Administrator
(New York State Geologist Taury Smith)
said he has been examining the science of
hydrofracturing the shale for three years and
has found no cases in which the process has
led to groundwater contamination. Times
Union, Albany.
If wells are constructed right and oper-
ated right, hydraulic fracturing will not
cause a problem Our natural gas supplies
would plummet precipitously without hy-
draulic fracturing. Scott Anderson, Envi-
ronmental Defense Funds Senior Policy
Adviser.
And just for comparison, a few quotes
about safety of uranium during the mining
and bomb testing boom from the 1950s into
the 1980s:
There is no danger. This is simply rou-
tine Atomic Energy Commission safety
procedures. a voice-over commentator on
an AEC video assuring residents near a
bomb test blast that staying indoors for
about an hour after the blast was just a
precaution.
Fallout does not constitute a serious
hazard to any living thing outside the test
site. from a 1955 publicity booklet preced-
ing nuclear bomb tests.
The safety rules provide maximum
amount of (radon) gas allowable, and if this
maximum is reached, the mines are closed
A lawyers paraphrase of a uranium mine
supervisors assurances following the death
of a miner from lung cancer believed to be
caused by radiation exposure.
The former quotes come straight from the
Marcellus Shale Coalition via email. The
latter from the book Uranium Frenzy: Saga
of the Nuclear West by Raye C. Ringholz. I
get the coalition emails at work; I picked up
the book during our vacation hiking and
touring the four-corner area of Colorado-
Utah-Arizona-New Mexico, the heart of a
uranium mine boom that made millionaires
out of pauper prospectors and savvy spec-
ulators.
I would not compare frack drilling for
natural gas to underground mining for ura-
nium. What Im comparing are the assur-
ances of safety. Ringholz quotes many sourc-
es early in the days of uranium mining and
nuclear bomb tests assuring no evidence of
health risks had been found, and that safety
protocols were protecting people. Sound
familiar?
There is also a parallel in the arguments
made then and now against too much regu-
lation. Uranium mining companies repeated-
ly insisted mandatory shaft ventilation stan-
dards would drive many small mines out of
business at a time when the country desper-
ately needed uranium for national security
and energy requirements. Sound familiar?
Real regulation didnt come until enough
people fell ill or died of radiation exposure
to prove the long term effects.
Yes, Marcellus natural gas presents a vast
domestic energy resource at a time when we
are far too dependent on oil from unstable
and even hostile countries. Yes, the drilling
industry offers an economic boon to cash-
strapped municipalities and the state. And
yes, there is still no unequivocal link be-
tween fracking and health problems or con-
tamination of drinking water.
But the threat is real and long-term, and it
behooves both industry and government to
rigorously err on the side of caution.
Our history is riddled with environmental
disasters we were assured by both regu-
lators and those being regulated would not
happen.
There is no need to repeat the lesson
here.

HE PRESSURE is on
to enact a new state
budget by July 1.
But we think Gov.
Tom Corbett should chill.
On Monday he showed in-
flexibility toward differences
with lawmakers and a deafness
toconcerns expressedby many
Pennsylvanians.
One involves the size of the
budget, which Corbett insisted
must be nomore than$27.3bil-
lion, the figure he proposed in
March . Three months ago the
state did not appear headed for
a half-billion-dollar surplus,
which it has accumulated.
That surplus argues for eas-
ing up on deep spending cuts,
which will hit education and
medical programs particularly
hard. But a week before the
budget deadline, the governor
is not governing based on cur-
rent fiscal reality, but on inac-
curate financial projections
that are months old.
The other quasi-ultimatum
issued by Corbett was for the
Legislature to put off action on
a new gas drilling fee until his
Marcellus Shale Advisory
Commission reports in July.
Last time we checked, the com-
mission didnt have a vote on
the state budget, so if the gov-
ernor wants a 2011-12 spending
plan on time, he should let the
Legislature settle the question.
While spending cuts were in-
evitable, Mr. Corbetts insist-
ence on sticking to his magic
budget number, despite a $506
million windfall, and shielding
the drilling industry from an
impact fee does not bode well
for the state. For such obstina-
cy in high office, Pennsylva-
nians will surely suffer.

ODAY THE plowers
and planters come to
Wilkes-Barre for the
start of the weekly
Farmers Market on Public
Square. They offer food as
fresh as you can find, and pro-
vide a link to the most impor-
tant activity mankind ever
mastered.
Farming, lest we
forget, made every-
thingelsehumans ac-
complish possible.
Before we could sow
and reap, we lived at
the whim of hunting
and gathering.
But enough wax-
ing cosmic, lets look
at hard numbers. Ac-
cording to the state
Department of Agriculture,
Pennsylvania boasts 7.8 mil-
lion farm acres, worked by
some 63,000 families.
Agriculture is still the states
leading enterprise, adding $6.1
billion to the economy each
year. One in seven jobs is relat-
edto agriculture, making up14
percent of Pennsylvanias em-
ployment opportunities.
Yet farmland has been
threatened for decades. Ac-
cording to the American Farm-
land Trust, 23.1 million acres
were lost nationwide from
1982 to 2007 a space the size
of Indiana. U.S. Department of
Agriculture figures show the
country went from 945 million
acres in farms to 920 million
from 2000 to 2009. The good
news: Pennsylvania farmland
remained relatively steady in
that span.
Family farms keep our food
supply diverse and fresh. The
Farmers Market gives local
growers an outlet for their
goods, and gives buyers a
chance to support this essen-
tial component of our econo-
my and our exist-
ence.
The farmers at
this market usual-
ly work the soil
themselves. They
can tell you when
a crop is good.
They know when
peaches are juic-
iest and broccoli
crispest. They of-
fer herbs both for immediate
use and for your own planting.
Find a small plot in your yard
or a fewlarge pots on the patio
and take home some basil
youcanpress pestoall summer
from a good yield. The aroma
of fresh herbs is a chefs nirva-
na.
If you work in the city, shop
the market each Thursday this
summer. If not, consider re-
serving time for a visit. You
may be able to get produce
year round thanks to a global
economy, but getting the
goods in season and fresh can
pay big dividends in taste.
Shopping the Farmers Mar-
ket is good for your health, the
economy, the farmers and
your taste buds.

site conditions included excava-

or relocationthat werenecessary.
Scope changes would include
additional concrete that was in-
stalled in the bus terminal area
and a temporary road that was
added to the project for Provin-
cial Tower residents to have a
route to their garage outside of
the construction zone,
McLaughlin said.
The CityVest statement read:
CityVest respectfully has a
fundamental disagreement with
the citys recollection of the facts
relating to the state funding in
the fall of 2009.
At that time, CityVest made a
written submission to the state
regarding the $3 million grant
and consulted with state officials
about progress with the project
and imminent prospects of find-
ing a developer.
Shortly after submitting that
informationto the state, CityVest
signed a letter of intent with a de-
veloper who specifically identi-
fied the state funding as an im-
portant component to the pro-
ject.
In early 2010, that developer
informed CityVest of its intent
not to pursue the Sterling and in-
dicated the change in status of
the (RACP) funding was a signif-
icant deterrent to pursue the pro-
ject.
This is a site that needs coop-
erationandteamworkat all levels
of government and the county
has beena tremendous supporter
of the project and we hope the
city will become one as well.
Requests of CityVest officials
to expand on the statement were
declined.
Susan Hooper, press secretary
at thestateOfficeof theBudget in
Harrisburg, explained the se-
quence of events:
The$3millioninRACPfund-
ing was released on Aug. 31,
2004, by then-Gov. Ed Rendell.
The RACP application was re-
ceived in April 2005, and a grant
agreement was executed in No-
vember 2005. The project did not
materialize, and in November
2009, Leighton asked the gover-
nor toapprove a transfer of the $3
million from the Hotel Sterling
project to the South Washington
Street Intermodal Transporta-
tion Center. Gov. Rendell ap-
proved the reallocation, and the
funding was incorporated into
the Intermodal Transportation
Center project via anamendment
to its grant agreement in January
2010.
Hooper explained that the
term released means Rendell
approved the use of RACP funds
for the Sterling project.
It does not mean that the
funds themselves were given to
theapplicant, Hooper said. The
RACP program is a reimburse-
ment program; grantees receive
the funds incrementally as reim-
bursement as they incur and pay
construction costs on their pro-
ject. In other words, no RACP
funds go to the grantee ahead of
time.
Later Wednesday, McLaughlin
sent an updated statement from
the city regarding the RACP
funding.
There were outstanding con-
ditions that hadnot beenmet and
the state intended to relocate the
$3 million RACP funds to anoth-
er community, McLaughlin
said. The citys decision, with
state approval, to re-program the
money was driven by the current
status, at that time, of the Hotel
Sterling development, not the
construction of the Intermodal,
andprimarily, thestates intent to
redirect millions of dollars of de-
velopment funds out of the city.
Luzerne County has a claimon
the property because it loaned
CityVest $6 million in communi-
ty development funding to ac-
quire and preserve the building.
That money is gone and was
largely spent to make the parcel
larger and demolish a 14-story
high-rise and connector building
at the rear of the 113-year-old ho-
tel.
CityVest officials have asked
the county to take over the pro-
ject and determine whether the
structure will be fully or partially
saved or demolished. All three
commissioners have said CityV-
est should make the call to tear
down the structure and find the
money to pay for demolition,
though they may assist in obtain-
ing a $1 million U.S. Department
of Housing and Urban Develop-
ment demolition grant.
DISPUTE
Bill OBoyle, a Times Leader staff
SCRANTON The guilty ver-
dict on public corruption charges
against resigned Lackawanna
County Commissioner A.J. Mun-
chak and former Commissioner
Robert Cordaro shows that pub-
lic officials will be held account-
able for their actions in office.
That can mean good things for
residents of Lackawanna County,
along with some potential chang-
es to the political scene, accord-
ingtoKeystone College associate
professor of political science Jeff
Brauer, of Dalton.
In order for democracy to
work, you need to have a system
in place to make sure that these
elected officials are held account-
able, andwe dohave a lot of those
checks inplaces. This is onegreat
example of it, Brauer said
Wednesday, one day after Corda-
ro was convicted of 18 counts in-
cluding extortion and racketeer-
ing and Munchak was found
guilty of eight counts including
tax fraud and bribery.
It definitely makes public offi-
cials who are in office much more
careful about what they do, he
added.
Changes predicted
After Tuesdays verdict, Brauer
believes more women will seek
elected office and find success in
the political arena. He cited the
near political upset of Lackawan-
na County Commissioner Corey
OBrien by candidate Elizabeth
Randol in the May 2011 primary
election as a key example.
Women are seen as not being
part of the old boys network.
Theyre going to become strong
candidates in Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
It may also have implications
on the form of county govern-
ment Lackawanna County uses.
While the commissioner style
of government is typical in about
half of the counties across the na-
tion, according to Brauer, it is al-
soprobably the most prone tobe
corrupt than any other type of
government in the United
States. Thats because of the
lack of separation between the
executive and legislative branch-
es of government.
A lot of this stuff would have
never happened if you had a sep-
arate legislative branch versus an
executive branch, he said.
In Luzerne County, a home
rule transition committee is
working to complete its recom-
mendations ona newformof gov-
ernment that will see 11 county
council members elected in No-
vember. Voters opted for the
change after a number of public
corruption cases in the ongoing
federal investigation.
Being our neighboring coun-
ty, were definitely goingtowatch
and see what happens and see if
they can clean up some of the
mess down there, Brauer said.
Knowing the players
Brauer said his classes on state
and local government have
played host to a variety of elected
officials over the years.
Cordaro has come to my class
a million times, he said. Ive
known these guys for years.
Having worked with Cordaro
to illustrate government at work,
Brauer was surprised when
charges were first levied against
the former Republican majority
leader in March 2010.
But Brauer also knows a key
member of the prosecution team
that worked to prove Cordaro
and Munchaks guilt in accepting
bribes and kickbacks in a pay-to-
play scheme involving county
contracts.
He was an intern with Assist-
ant U.S. Attorney Lorna Graham
while he studied pre-law at The
University of Scranton before
turning to political science.
She was very professional and
a very strong woman. She was ve-
ry much all business, Brauer
said.
He said U.S. attorneys have nu-
merous resources and a light
caseload that allows them to
prosecute each trial effectively.
Brauer said he was surprised
that jurors didnt put more
weight intocases built bydefense
attorneys William Costopoulos,
representing Cordaro, and Chris
Powell, defending Munchak.
I think the defense did a good
job in this case. Imnot surprised
with the verdict and how split it
was. Imsurprised that they were
convictedof as manycharges that
they were, Brauer said.
A strong case on behalf of the
convicted commissioners may
have been overshadowed by a
need for accountability, though.
Juries at this point and time,
especially in this atmosphere at
this time in Northeastern Penn-
sylvania, might be out to get any
public official that is seen as cor-
rupt. I think the charges were
trumped up, and I think the con-
victions were trumped up based
on that, Brauer said.
Looking ahead
While the guilty verdict brings
a close to one chapter of Lacka-
wanna Countys past, despite ap-
peals promised by the defense,
Brauer said it will continue to im-
pact politics in ways many may
not see.
All elected officials are going
to be extremely paranoid about
what they do and what theyve
done and what theyre going to
do in the future, Brauer said.
Even OBrien, Brauer said, has
stepped cautiously when making
decisions from his seat on the
sixth floor of the county adminis-
tration building while touting an
agenda of reform, honorable gov-
ernment and wise spending.
Ive worked with Corey
OBrien quite a bit, and I know
over the last couple of years hes
been paranoid about anything he
does to make sure that he can
never be brought up on any simi-
lar type of charges, he said.

Robert Cordaro, left, was found guilty on corruption charges Tues-
day. Defense attorney William Costopoulos discusses the case.
on Tuesday.
The letter, dated June 22,
said his resignation would be
effective at midnight Wednes-
day.
The Lackawanna County
Home Rule Charter states that
any elected officer shall forfeit
their office upon conviction
in a court of record of compe-
tent jurisdiction of any crimi-
nal offense where the maxi-
mum sentence shall be 5 years
imprisonment or more.
At a maximum, Munchak
faces up to 93 years in prison
and $2 million in fines for his
crimes.
Although his legal team is
considering an appeal, it is in
the best interests of the tax-
payers that I take this action
immediately, Munchak wrote.
The jurys verdicts begin to
bring closure to a difficult peri-
od in the history of Lackawan-
na County government,
OBrien said. The actions de-
scribed in this trial were our
countys past. They are not our
countys present, and they will
not define our countys future.
The good old days are over,
and anyone wishing to bring
those days back will be thwart-
ed at every turn.
Washo said Tuesday was a
miserable evening and that
citizens are tired of good inten-
tions without actions to sup-
port them.
Cleaning up pigeon dung is
not a professional service. I
said that from that seat over
there at least 30 times over a
two-year period, Washo said,
referring to the lucrative con-
tract Munchak and former
Commissioner Robert Cordaro
gave to Alicon Environmental
for the cleanup of such waste
from the rafters of the Lacka-
wanna County Courthouse.
Cordaro was convicted of brib-
ery, extortion, racketeering
and more among a total of 18
counts on Tuesday.
Im not here to say I told
you so, but Im here to say that
we knew some of these things
well in advance of the horrific,
horrific borrowings in order to
fund those matters.
According to the home rule
charter, the executive com-
mittee of the political party of
the person elected to the office
in question shall submit a list of
three persons to the judges of
the court en banc within five
days of the vacancy. The court
shall appoint one of the three
persons recommended to tem-
porarily fill the vacancy.
Lackawanna County Repub-
lican Party Chairman Lance
Stange Jr. said that five min-
utes after the verdict was hand-
ed down his phone rang consis-
tently for about three or four
hours.
Stange said the GOP is ac-
cepting letters of intent and
phone calls from interested
party members who wish to be
interviewed for a nomination
to the seat. Party members can
email their letter to lackawan-
nagop@gmail.com or call
(570) 346-7729.
The party will then conduct
interviews with candidates
from10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Ra-
mada Clarks Summit Hotel,
820 Northern Blvd., South
Abington Township, on Satur-
day in order to select the top
three individuals.
Stange said he does not be-
lieve the conviction of the first
Republican majority commis-
sioners in nearly 20 years will
affect the outcome of the No-
vember general election.
The Republican Party is
against corruption, Stange
said. I think its unfair to paint
everyone with a broad brush
based on the actions of two in-
dividuals out of the 213,000
people in Lackawanna County.
I dont believe its a problem
with a particular political par-
ty. Its a problem of power. For
too long, too much power has
been placed in the hands of too
few people.
MUNCHAK
bribery, extortion, conspiracy to
commit extortion and tax eva-
sion, but he was found not guilty
of racketeering and racketeer-
ing conspiracy. He did not face
money laundering charges.
Part of the governments rack-
eteering case against the men
centered on them using the
commissioners office as an en-
terprise for personal gain
through racketeering activities,
which included extortion and
bribery.
So how could Cordaro be con-
victed on racketeering conspir-
acy if Munchak didnt conspire
with him?
One of the principal attorneys
in the case and the U.S. Attor-
neys Office as well as some for-
mer U.S. attorneys weighed in
with their opinions.
Peter Vaira, a Philadelphia at-
torney who formerly served as
U.S. attorney for the Eastern
District of Pennsylvania, noted
that while the verdicts appear
incongruous, courts of appeal
have overlooked inconsistent
verdicts if judges decide that a
jury employed lenity or leni-
ency toward a defendant in their
decision.
But if its so complex and
goes to the integrity of the ver-
dict, that could cause the ver-
dict to be tossed, Vaira said.
David Debold, a Washington,
D.C., attorney who specializes
in federal criminal law defense
and a former federal prosecutor,
said its possible that the jury
decided Cordaro and Munchak
did not conspire with each other
on racketeering charges, but
rather that Cordaro conspired
with an unindicted co-conspir-
ator.
Heidi Havens, spokeswoman
for the U.S. Attorneys Office,
pointed out in an emailed re-
sponse that the indictment
charged that the men conspir-
ed with each other AND others
both known and unknown to the
grand jury.
One of the other conspir-
ators could have been Scranton
funeral director Al Hughes,
whom the jury believed passed
along bribes from former Acker
Associates official P.J. McLaine
to Cordaro.
However, the prosecution pre-
sented no evidence that anyone
acted as an intermediary for
bribes that Munchak received.
Chris Powell, Munchaks at-
torney, agreed the jury could
have perceived Hughes as a co-
conspirator, and he also present-
ed a different perspective on the
racketeering charges against
Munchak.
According to the law, the jury
would have to find that Mun-
chak committed two independ-
ent predicated acts to be con-
victed of racketeering.
However, the jury found Mun-
chak guilty only of accepting
bribes from Don Kalina, of
Highland Associates. They
found him not guilty of extort-
ing money from Lou Costanzo,
principal of L.R. Costanzo, Po-
well said.
Powell noted the prosecution
didnt list a charge that Mun-
chak accepted $500 for a seat on
the Lackawanna County Multi-
Purpose Stadium Authority
fromJohn Grow, known in radio
advertisements as the guy from
Gibbons (Ford), on the verdict
sheets. Id like to think they re-
moved him after we proved it
was ridiculous, he said.
Powell said one of Munchaks
bases for appeal is that Judge A.
Richard Caputo erred in deny-
ing his motion for a separate
trial for his client.
There were a lot of accusa-
tions against Cordaro that
didnt have any implications on
Munchak. Even though it would
have cost more money, I think it
would have been more just to
have separate trials, Powell
said.
He said he will file standard
post-trial motions that will in-
clude a request for a new trial as
well as a judgment not with-
standing the jury verdict.
The 30-day clock to file an ap-
peal to a higher court starts tick-
ing after the defendants sen-
tencing, which is scheduled for
Sept. 28.
Cordaros attorney, William
Costopolous, said on Tuesday
that Cordaro also planned to ap-
peal. He did not return a call for
this story.

WIMBLEDON, England Time
and again after losing a point, Venus
Williams rolled her eyes, slumped her
shoulders and let out a shriek of dis-
may that echoed through Centre
Court, reverberating off its roof.
Facing the most, uh, experienced
woman in the Wimbledon field 40-
year-old Kimiko Date-Krummof Japan
Williams was mired in a three-set
struggle that lasted nearly three hours
Wednesday, a tight, high-quality con-
test brimming with the sort of at-the-
net, classic grass-court play seen so
rarely nowadays.
She doesnt play anywhere near her
age, Williams said.
In the end, Williams, a five-time
champion at the All England Club,
mustered every bit of her competitive
drive and considerable talent to pull
out a 6-7 (6), 6-3, 8-6 comeback victory
over Date-Krumm and reach the third
round.
She played unbelievable today. I
thought she had some luck on her side,
too, with net cords, balls hitting lines. I
just thought today was a perfect storm
for her to try to get a win, said Wil-
liams, who again wore her decidedly
original lace romper, featuring draped
sleeves, deep V neckline, gold belt
and gold zipper.
Thankfully, Williams added, I had
some answers.
None more effective than her serve,
in the late-going, anyway. That stroke
delivered 12 aces, helped Williams es-
cape several jams and was clocked at
120 mpheveninher final service game.
Contrast that with Date-Krumms
serves, mostly about 80 mph. One was
65 mph.

Five-time champion survives big scare
By HOWARD FENDRICH
AP Tennis Writer
NEWYORKJust in case the Cleve-
land Cavaliers need it, heres some ad-
vice for what to do with those two high
picks.
Take Kyrie Irving first, grab Turkish
big man Enes Kanter fourth, and start
enjoying the post-
season success you
used to have when
LeBron James was
around.
If I play with Ky-
rie, I believe we can
make playoffs, Kan-
ter said Wednesday. I know we can
make playoffs.
Or instead, pass on Irving and go with
Arizonas Derrick Williams, who can
play inside or out, either forward spot,
and would bring the mixture of power
and athleticism back to your frontcourt
that was lost when James left.
I feel like I amthe most overall ready
in this spot by my size and ready to

Cleveland expected to make Kyrie
Irving the top pick in NBA draft and
possibly grab Kanter fourth.

MOOSIC The offensive woes for
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre continue at
PNC Field.
On the current eight-game home-
stand, the Yankees only boast a .206 bat-
tingaverage (44-for-214) duringthe first
seven games.
That stat includes nine hits for the
Yankees on Wednesday night, but they
still fell to Norfolk 5-3.
The offense hasnt scored more than
five runs and the Yanks havent won at
home since a 10-run outburst on June 9
against Charlotte. SWBis 2-5onthe cur-
rent homestand.
Alot of the offensive troubles are due
to the fact that many of the teams top
hitters are injured or in the majors.
The disabled list includes Jorge Vaz-
quez, who leads the International
League in home runs, and Justin Max-
well, who is second in the league in
homers. Chris Dickerson, who started
the season in the SWBoutfield, is nowa
backup outfielder for New York.

t has not only survived but thrived
for 30 years running now.
The Wilkes-Barre Triathlon al-
ways runs smoothly because of good-
hearted volunteers who typically re-
flect the spirit of race director Joanne
Gensel.
But those people who made the
annual event special for 30 years arent
going to be doing it forever.
And if the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon is
going to keep running for the next 30
years, its going to was built on consis-
tency and longevity. And the people
who made it the special event it has
grown into arent going to be at the job
forever.
Its going to take new blood to keep
the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon flowing.
Thats what John and Tracey
McGurk figured when they signed on
to help run the show.
The husband and wife duo who
reside in Dallas had done this triathlon
deal from the field.
John joined the Wilkes-Barre fray of
triathletes in 1988 and captured the
mens amateur field in 1996.
Tracey not only won, she kept win-
ning. Back when she was still known
by her maiden name of Tracey Polliard,
she captured the amateur womens
portion of the race three straight times
in the mid-90s, when pros were still
storming the Back Mountain and using
Wilkes-Barre as a USTA qualifying and
championship race.
Now, both of them are more interest-
ed in helping to run it rather than ac-
tually running in it.
I wanted to be involved. It was a
logical progression, John McGurk
said.
It was more of an evolution that sent
his wife to the other side of hillsides.
When I was pregnant with my first
child, I volunteered that year, Tracey
said. I started getting involved with
the kids race.
Theyre still caught up in the excite-
ment of the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon,
just from a different perspective now.
John McGurk serves as a swim
course coordinator and Tracey is the
triathlons future triathletes run coor-
dinator.
But its going to take more like them
to keep the Wilkes-Barre Triathlon
running through three more decades.
It wouldnt be the 30th without the
community, Gensel said.
The work is never easy, and the job
sometimes seems thankless.
As much as I have my trying times,
said Gensel, whose been directing the
race for more than 20 years and threat-
ened to retire from the post after nearly
as many of those summers, theres
always a solution to the problem. Its
just a matter of finding it.
The McGurks found the whole proc-
ess of performing as a triathlon volun-
teer simply amazing.
You see a side of it you probably
dont appreciate as an athlete, John
McGurk said.
Are we seeing the Wilkes-Barre
Triathlons future?
The McGurks hope theyll inspire
more triathletes who may not have the
time to train as participants but dont
feel its time to leave the sport behind.
But it takes a big commitment to
help run a big event such as the Wilkes-
Barre Triathlon.
Local athletes want to be involved,
Gensel said. The problem is they want
to race.
There will come a time when they
wont.
And thats when itd be neat to see
former competitors follow the example
set by the McGurks and remain in-
volved as volunteers.
Once they are finished running the
race, its time for todays triathletes to
help keep it running.

Former Wilkes University
standout Chris Parker has been
named the new Holy Redeemer
girls basketball coach. He replac-
es former coach Rich Nemetz,
who stepped down in April to
pursue other interests.
Parker played at Wilkes from
1993-1996, A shooting guard,
Parker led the Colonels to a 28-2
record during his senior year.
For the past two years, Parker
served as the girls basketball
coach at GAR. The Grenadiers
finished with a 4-10 record last
season.
Imjust excitedtohave the op-
portunity to coach one of the pre-
mier girls basketball programs in
the area, said Parker, 38. Ive
been waiting for this opportunity
for sometime. Imextremelyhap-
py.
Holy Redeemer captured the
Wyoming Valley Conference Di-
vision II championship last sea-
son and advanced to the PIAA
Class 3A state tournament. The
Royals lost to eventual state
champion Archbishop Wood in
second-round play.
Parker said hes well aware of
his responsibility to keep Holy
Redeemers winning tradition in-
tact.
Redeemer has won two cham-
pionships back-to-back, so Im
looking forward to the challenge.
The players will have an opportu-
nity to keep it going.
The Royals lost four starters
from last seasons team, includ-
ing leading scorer Olivia Francis-
co. However, senior guard Julia
Wignot returns as will 5-foot-11
junior center Sydney Myers, who
is expected to be one of the pre-
mier players in the Wyoming Val-
ley Conference.
Parker expects big things from
Myers.
Shes extremely physical and
aggressive. Anytime you have a
player who gets most of her shots
from two or three feet from the
basket, you have something spe-
cial.
Parker had his first team meet-
ing Wednesday and it afforded
hima chance to get acclimated to
the players.
Its going to be a challenge,
but Im up to it.

ST. LOUIS Cliff Lee
threw a six-hitter for his sec-
ond straight shutout and the
Philadelphia Phillies got home-
rs from Jimmy Rollins and
Ryan Howard in the fourth
inning of a 4-0 victory over the
St. Louis Cardinals on Wednes-
day night.
The Cardinals have totaled
two runs on 11 hits in their first
two games without injured
Albert Pujols, expected to miss
six weeks with a fractured left
wrist. It didnt help that
theyve faced two of the games
best, with Roy Halladay giving
up four hits in six innings on
Tuesday.
Yankees 4, Reds 2
Reds 10, Yankees 2
CINCINNATI Leadoff
hitter Chris Heisey homered
three times, getting Cincinna-
tis slumping lineup going, and
Johnny Cueto allowed only
two hits in seven innings, lead-
ing the Reds to a win and a
doubleheader split with the
New York Yankees.
In the opener, Jorge Posada
ended the second-longest
homer drought of his career
with a two-run shot, sending
the Yankees to a 4-2 win.
Heisey started the second
game with his first career lead-
off homer. He also had two-run
shots off Brian Gordon (0-1)
and Hector Noesi in his first
multihomer game.
Padres 5, Red Sox 1
BOSTON Will Venable hit
a leadoff home run and Clayton
Richard some support for a
change, lifting the San Diego
Padres over the Boston Red
Sox in a game delayed by rain
four times before it was called
after 7
1
2 innings.
It was the second straight
win for San Diego after a sea-
son-worst six-game losing
streak. The Padres finished
their road trip at 3-6.
Rays 6, Brewers 3
MILWAUKEE Kelly Shop-
pach hit a two-run home run in
the second and Elliot Johnson
added a three-run shot in the
seventh.
Rays starter David Price
(8-6) struck out 10 in eight
innings, giving up two runs,
five hits and a walk. Price
threw120 pitches and still was
hitting 96 mph on Miller Parks
radar gun in the eighth.
B.J. Uptons RBI single gave
Tampa Bay the lead in the
sixth inning.
Braves 5, Blue Jays 1
ATLANTA Brandon Bea-
chy had a career-high 11 strike-
outs in his return from the
disabled list, Dan Uggla and
Brian McCann hit two-run
homers, and Atlanta completed
a sweep of Toronto.
Beachy had been on the
disabled list since May 14 with
a strained left oblique. After
one rehab appearance in the
minors, the rookie right-hander
returned to the Braves with a
flourish, eclipsing his previous
best of nine strikeouts in two
other starts.
He had the Blue Jays com-
pletely baffled over his six-
inning stint, getting all but one
of his Ks on swinging strikes.
Toronto managed just four hits
off Beachy (2-1), including a
third-inning homer by Jose
Bautista.
Tigers 7, Dodgers 5
LOS ANGELES Casper
Wells opened the game with
one of four home runs by De-
troit and defensive replace-
ment Austin Jackson made an
over-the-shoulder catch on
Dioner Navarros bases-loaded
drive for the final out.
Miguel Cabrera and Magglio
Ordonez also homered. So did
Don Kelly, who connected as a
pinch-hitter for Ordonez in the
eighth inning.
Jose Valverde struck out
pinch-hitter Casey Blake and
retired Navarro on the fly ball
for his 17th straight save.
Pirates 5, Orioles 4
PITTSBURGH The
Orioles Blake Davis made an
error in his major league de-
but, allowing Pittsburgh to
score the tying and go-ahead
runs.
Josh Harrisons ground ball
to second with two outs and
runners on second and third in
the fifth went through Davis
legs, and Brandon Wood and
Michael McKenry scored on
the error.
Indians 4, Rockies 3
CLEVELAND Josh Tom-
lin came through with another
quality outing and designated
hitter Travis Hafner hit a two-
run homer in his last start for a
while, leading Cleveland to a
win over the Colorado Rockies
before the Indians leave for
three NL cities.
Tomlin (9-4) allowed three
runs and five hits in 6 1-3 in-
nings. He has gone at least six
innings in 14 of 15 starts, and a
minimum of five in all 27 as a
major leaguer.
Nationals 2, Mariners 1
WASHINGTON The
Washington Nationals found
yet another novel way to keep
their winning ways going,
beating the Seattle Mariners
with a pair of unearned runs
off Erik Bedard.
The Nationals scored in the
first and fourth with the help of
errors against the games top
interleague pitcher to win for
the 10th time in 11 games. Just
24 hours earlier, they opened
the series by overcoming a 5-1
ninth-inning deficit capped by
Wilson Ramos improbable
walk-off homer.
Angels 6, Marlins 5
MIAMI Mark Trumbo hit
a two-out RBI single in the
10th inning, and an uncharac-
teristic succession of clutch
hits helped the Los Angeles
Angels beat the Florida Mar-
lins.
The Angels went 5 for 14
with runners in scoring posi-
tion after going 2 for 26 in
those situations in the first two
games of the series.
Diamondbacks 3, Royals 2
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Ian
Kennedy pitched six strong
innings and Xavier Nady hit an
RBI double, helping the Arizo-
na Diamondbacks beat the
Kansas City Royals.
Astros 5, Rangers 3
ARLINGTON, Texas Matt
Downs had a pinch-hit, two-
run homer in the ninth when
the Houston Astros scored four
times off Texas Rangers closer
Neftali Feliz for a victory.
White Sox 4, Cubs 3
CHICAGO Jake Peavy
returned from the disabled list
to get the victory, A.J. Pier-
zynski had a two-run triple and
the Chicago White Sox beat
the Cubs 4-3 on Wednesday
night to win two of three in
their first series this season.
M A J O R L E A G U E R O U N D U P
Lee hurls gem
as Phillies win
STANDINGS/STATS
raz hitting third, Greg Golson
sixth and Kevin Russo seventh.
Hits havent come in an over-
abundance for us so we tried to
mix it up and get some runs
across the board, Miley said.
A bright spot for the Yankees
was that the bullpen continued
to post solid numbers.
Eric Wordekemper and Josh
Schmidt combined to throw
three scoreless innings. In its
last nine games, the pen has on-
ly given up two runs in 28
2
3 in-
nings.
A problem was that starter
D.J. Mitchell (4-7) allowed five
runs on nine hits in six innings.
Mitchell wasnt hit hard, but
got in the most trouble in the
sixth when he gave up three
runs after a bunt was popped up
and he appeared to catch it. But
he slipped and the ball fell. The
Tides went on to push their lead
to 5-1 later in the frame.
You cant do anything about
that, Miley added. They were
trying to give us an out and he
slipped and couldnt make the
play.
Norfolk went up 1-0 in the top
of the first and the Yankees an-
swered in the bottom of the sec-
ond when Brandon Laird hit his
fifth home run of the year, a
blast over one of the billboards
in left field to tie the game at 1-1.
Laird (3-for-4, 3 RBI) came
through again in the sixth.
This time with the bases load-
ed, he connected for a single to
drive in Doug Bernier and Jor-
dan Parraz to cut the Norfolk
lead to 5-3.
The Yankees also had an op-
portunity in the eighth after Je-
sus Montero and Laird punched
back-to-back, two-out singles to
center field. Golson then
knocked a hit to right.
But Montero tried to score
and was nailed at the plate by
right fielder Tyler Henson to
end the inning.
Notes: The roster moves con-
tinue to pile up for SWB. On
Wednesday, starter David
Phelps landed on the disabled
list with shoulder soreness after
his start on Tuesday. Buddy Car-
lyle, who also pitched on Tues-
day, was recalled by New York
for its doubleheader on Wednes-
day. The time of Wednesdays
game was 2 hours, 48 minutes
with an announced attendance
of 2,911.

1917 In baseballs greatest relief effort, Ernie
Shore of the Boston Red Sox relieved pitcher Babe
Ruth with nobody out and a man on first. The base
runner was cut down stealing and Shore retired all
26 batters he faced to gain a 4-0 victory over Wash-
ington. Ruth walked Eddie Foster to open the game
and was ejected after arguing with umpire Brick

sent at the time the photograph was taken.
John Berti and Kimberly Seward attend the kickoff for the 30th
annual triathlon at the Hillside Cottage in Shavertown.
SHAVERTOWN For the past
30 years the Wilkes-Barre Triath-
lon has seen athletes swim
through Harveys Lake, navigate
the thin wheels of racing bikes in
and out of sections of almost the
entire back mountain region and
finally race six miles on foot to
the finish line, found for the past
10 years in the Penn State
Wilkes-Barre campus.
The Triathlon has welcomed
competitors from both its back-
yardandas far away as Australia,
along the way testing the likes of
Paula Newby-Fraser, an eight-
time Hawaii Ironman Cham-
pion, Hunter Kemper, the top
U.S. Mens qualifier in the 2000
Olympics, and, in 1988, an as-
yet-unproven young man by the
name of Lance Armstrong.
But though the Wilkes-Barre
Triathlon certainly is a draw for
triathletes local and otherwise,
and while the course can be just
as challenging as any other, its
not just the competitive side of
the contest that keeps both en-
trants and organizers coming
back year after year, always look-
ing forward to the next one.
No matter what, I can find
volunteers who will pitch in or
local business who will lend sup-
port and its great to see that,
said race director Joanne Gen-
sel, echoing a statement ex-
pressed by others at a gathering
of supporters held Wednesday
night by the race committee.
That means the people around
here are supporting the event,
which is fantastic because were
basically a committee of volun-
teers and every year theres no
shortage of people who want to
come out and help all weekend
long.
This years race will offer no
shortage of time or location for
all those interested to come out
and either volunteer or see for
their selves what a triathlon is
all about.
Registration entries are still
currently being accepted and
will be until August 10. Then,
starting on Saturday, August 13,
there will be a future triathletes
run for athletes up to the age of
13. All those participating will
come together for a meeting in
the Athletics and Recreation
building on Penn State Wilkes-
Barres campus and the course
will be finalized for the follow-
ing days main event, set to be-
gin at 5:30 a.m. with athlete
check ins and to run until any-
time around one in the after-
noon, give or take the number of
competitors.
And while the race itself typ-
ically runs from 7:30 a.m. until
roughly 1 p.m., give or take the
number of entrants, last years
event needed a 40-member com-
mittee plus members of the sur-
rounding communitys Fire, Po-
lice and Ambulance squads to
set up the course, maintain it
during the day and take it down
once the days event is complete.
Whatever the race commit-
tee needs from someone, we all
just jump into it, said Tom Wil-
kie, a former race director and
now self-proclaimed jack of all
trades. Its a good, tight-knit
group that just backs each other
up the whole time. Its one of if
not the biggest reason why I
come back every year.

EXETER While the country
was recoveringfromthe worst ec-
onomic period in its history, Fox
Hill CountryClubPresident John
Allanshoulderedthe major finan-
cial burden of supporting his
country club in the aftermath of
the Great Depression.
Nearly 75 years after he held
his position from 1935-37, Fox
Hill continues to honor Allan
with its most coveted event.
More than100 teams will com-
pete in the 65th annual John A.
Allan Tournament, which begins
with a better-ball stroke play for-
mat at 7 a.m. Friday. The two-
member teams will be vying for
one of the spots in the 16-team
championship flight held Satur-
day and Sunday.
This is (our) biggest tourna-
ment of the year, every year, said
Fox Hills head golf pro Frances
Hayes.
Hayes and his staff has had
their hands full this week inkeep-
ing the par-71, 6,558-yard course
well maintained for the 208 gol-
fers.
About 80 hours of work this
week, he said. A lot of work
goes into it for me and my staff.
Last years championship duo
of Brian Corbett and Bob Gill,
who have won the tournament
three times, bested the team of
Don Crossin and Bill Briggs
four-time winners since 2002.
The final round turned into a
21-hole match, thanks to three
sudden holes to determine the
winner, which lasted approxi-
mately six hours.
This years tournament will al-
ternate its style of play from last
year, with the championship
flight switching to better-ball
stroke play for Saturday and Sun-
day.
The 16 teams in the champion-
ship flight will play 18 holes Sat-
urday and 27 holes Sunday.
The scores of all three rounds
will be counted toward each
teams total score. The team in
the championship flight who fin-
ishes with the lowest total score
wins.
The 88 teams who do not qual-
ify after Fridays play for the
championship flight will play the
remaining 45 holes in better-ball
match play.

Fox Hill ready for 65th annual Allan tourney
By RYAN KONOPKI
For The Times Leader
Wimbledon semifinals in 1996,
quit tennis later that year, then
came out of retirement in 2008,
marveledat Williams serve after-
ward, saying: Not only speed
its on the corner. So it was very,
very difficult to break her.
Not at the outset, actually.
Date-Krumm won 13 of the first
16 points Williams served, break-
ing three times en route to a 5-1
lead. The 23rd-seeded Williams
turned things around, taking five
consecutive games to go ahead
6-5. Williams then wasted a set
point, and Date-Krumm eventu-
ally won the tiebreaker. In the
second and third sets, though,
Williams played much more
cleanly, and she wound up win-
ning by breaking in the final
game.
It was hardly easy.
Venus came out slow, andthat
girl took off like a brand new mo-
tor, said Williams father and
coach, Richard. His daughter
missed time with a bum hip and
is playing only her fourth tourna-
ment since Wimbledon in 2010.
On Tuesday, his other daugh-
ter, Serena, needed three sets to
win, too. After ambling out of
Centre Court this time, Dad
tapped his umbrellas wooden
handle on his chest and said, re-
ferring to those matches:
Theyre tough on the heart. The
hearts not as young as it once
was.
He wasnt the only one toting
an umbrella around the grounds
Wednesday, when rain prevented
any action until after 3 p.m., oth-
er than under the retractable roof
at the main stadium. After Wil-
liams managed to sneak through,
fans with Centre Court tickets
had a chance to see easy wins for
two-time champion Rafael Na-
dal, then three-time runner-up
Andy Roddick.
The top-ranked Nadal beat
Ryan Sweeting of the United
States 6-3, 6-2, 6-4, compiling 38
winners and only seven unforced
errors. In the third round, Nadal
will face Gilles Muller of Luxem-
bourg the only manother than
Roger Federer to beat him at
Wimbledon in the past six years.
Since losing to Muller in the sec-
ond round in 2005, Nadal is 28-2
at the All England Club; that in-
cludes defeats against Federer in
the 2006 and 2007 finals, titles in
2008 and 2010, and missing the
2009 tournament with bad
knees.
Will be a big, big test for me,
Nadal said.
Roddicks strong serve was
clickingagainina 6-4, 6-3, 6-4vic-
tory over Victor Hanescu of Ro-
mania. The No. 8-seeded Ameri-
can hit 15 aces, saved the only
break point he faced and limited
his unforced errors to six all
with a special pair of fans sitting
at Centre Court: his parents.
This is the first time theyve
seen me play here. ... I think to-
day was the first time they ever
sat in a box in my entire career,
said Roddick, who won the 2003
U.S. Open. They picked a good
court to debut that on. I think
theyre having fun.
Other winners included No. 4
Andy Murray, No. 9 Gael Monfils
and 72nd-ranked Alex Bogomo-
lov Jr. of the United States, who
reached the third round in his
first trip to Wimbledon by knock-
ing off No. 25 Juan Ignacio Chela
of Argentina 6-0, 6-3, 6-4.
The only seeded woman to
lose was No. 30 Bethanie Mattek-
Sands of the United States, who
caused a stir with her Lady Gaga-
inspired jacket that had white
tennis balls attached to it, then
was beaten 6-4, 5-7, 7-5 by 133rd-
ranked Misaki Doi of Japan.
When Mattek-Sands arrived at
the court, she noticed a tour offi-
cial scrutinizing her getup. So
Mattek-Sands made clear her un-
usual accessory would be re-
moved before warmup time.
Imnot hitting any balls in it,
Mattek-Sands said. Dont wor-
ry.

WIMBLEDON, England
Andy Roddick is holding his
racket a newway on his serve
and he had some new guests in
his Centre Court box Wednes-
day.
Just a slight little grip
change, the eighth-seeded Rod-
dick explained after beating Vic-
tor Hanescu of Romania 6-4, 6-3,
6-4 to reach the third round at
Wimbledon. I was having to
kind of force my serve a little bit.
Went home with a shoulder inju-
ry, came back, and kind of fid-
dled a little bit.
Its certainly working. The
2003 U.S. Openchampionhas 45
aces through two matches this
year at the All England Club,
where hes been the runner-up
three times. Roddick saved the
only breakpoint he facedandfin-
ished with six unforced errors.
All with his parents watching
from up-close.
This is the first time theyve
seen me play here, the 28-year-
oldAmericansaid. I thinktoday
was the first time they ever sat in
a box in my entire career. They
pickeda goodcourt todebut that
on. I think theyre having fun.
His serve, he said, is back to
where it was as, opposed to me
changing anything Ive done for
a decade. That would probably
explain why my shoulder was
beat up, too.
Roddick skipped the French
Open because his right shoulder
was bothering him.
If you change something, are
hitting something different than
awayyouhavebefore, evenwith-
out knowing, sometimes you
have to go back to basics. I never
had to do that on my serve be-
fore, said Roddick, who plays
44th-ranked Feliciano Lopez of
Spainnext. But is that all it was?
I dont know. But I feel goodwith
where its at right now.
BOGOMOLOV KEEPS GO-
ING: Never before in Wimble-
dons main draw, Alex Bogomo-
lov Jr. is now in the third round.
I think maturity-wise, some
people just peak at later times in
their careers, the 28-year-old
American said Wednesday after
beating 25th-seeded Juan Igna-
cio Chela of Argentina 6-0, 6-3,
6-4. I always had the faith that I
would accomplish some things
that I always dreamed about. Im
just so blessed its here, and Im
takingeveryopportunityI have.
Bogomolov, 1-10 at the other
Grand Slam tournaments, ad-
mittedsomekeyevents probably
werefactors inhis lackof success
oncourt inthe past: his marriage
to, and divorce from, tennis play-
er Ashley Harkleroad; his
month-and-a-half suspension in
2005 for failing to file paperwork
for his asthma inhalator, which
no longer is a banned substance;
and left wrist surgery in 2008.
He and his longtime girl-
friend, Luana, have an18-month-
old son. Theyre in the process of
moving fromNewJersey to Flor-
ida, where he grewup after mov-
ing from Russia at age 11.
I feel like tennis-wise every-
thing is coming together at the
right time, Bogomolov said.
Personal-wise, Im happy. It
took me a while to get over
things that happened. But now I
have a clear mind and its all
about my tennis.
Bogomolov feels the turning
point came this year when he
beat Andy Murray in the second
round at Key Biscayne, Fla.
Heading into Wimbledon, he re-
ached the quarterfinals at the
grass-court tuneup tournament
at Den Bosch, Netherlands.
His next challenge at Wimble-
donwill be far tougher: 2010run-
ner-up Tomas Berdych of the
Czech Republic.

Roddick gets boost
from special fans
dential.
Both sides seemed optimistic
about reachinganagreement after
owners were briefed on a new
CBA that would net the players
just under 50percent of total reve-
nues.
An NFL-imposed lockout has
been in place since March 12.
Training camps are scheduled to
open in late July.
The owners spent five hours
Tuesday listening to updates on
various CBA issues. Afterward,
the leagues chief negotiator Jeff
Pash said were eager to acceler-
ate the pace of the negotiations.
Wehavealot of worktodoand
weve got to do it right, Goodell
added. The agreement has to fo-
cus on several issues and the is-
sues are complex. It must be done
in a way that is fair to the players
anda way that is fair tothe clubs.
One persontoldthe APthat the
players share wouldapproachthe
50 percent the NFLPA has said it
has received throughout the last
decade. But the expense credits
about $1billionlast yearthat
the league takes off the top would
disappear.
Also, there would no longer be
designated revenues from
whichtheplayerswouldshare, the
person said. Instead, the players
would share from the entire pie,
which they project will grow sig-
nificantly over the course of the
new CBA, which is expected to
runanywherefromsixto10years.
So if they are taking 48 percent or
more of a much higher revenue
streamwithout the initial NFL
deduction for operating expenses
the players still would receive
far more money than they got un-
der the previous agreement.
A salary floor keeping teams
within 90 percent of the cap also
would be included. The players
have been concerned that some
teams whose revenue streams
dont match up with the richer
clubs wouldtrytoholddownsala-
ry spending.

CROMWELL, Conn. Bub-
ba Watson won his first PGA
Tour event at last years Trav-
elers Championship, becoming
the third golfer in five seasons
to break through at the Connec-
ticut event.
J.J. Henry, a Connecticut na-
tive, won in 2006 and Hunter
Mahan took the first of his three
career PGA Tour wins on the
course in 2007.
Mahan said he doesnt think
thats just coincidence. The
tournament starting today, a
week after the U.S. Open, sets
up well for more inexperienced
golfers.
This is an opportunity for a
lot of young guys to play well,
like me and J.J. and Bubba, he
said. Youre going to make a lot
of birdies out here. Its not like
an Augusta-type golf course
where you have to learn it over
time. You can come out here
right off the get-go and play
well.
It also doesnt hurt that the
Travelers comes when many of
the top players are home rest-
ing, and others arent mentally
at the top of their game.
There is such a buildup to
(the Open) like no other tourna-
ment has, so the week after that
you kind of get a bit flat in the
middle of the week, said Geoff
Ogilvy, who will be playing the
TPC River Highlands for the
first time in 10 years. You really
want to be intense, but its
hard.
Watson acknowledged that
gave him an advantage last year,
when he came into Connecticut
after missing the Open.
I got here mad that I wasnt
in the Open and then I some-
how won, he said. So yeah,
that might have some effect on
it that youre energized and
youre ready to go and youre
mad that you werent in a major,
so now youre ready to go at the
Travelers.
Watson overcame a six-stroke
deficit during the final round to
force a playoff with Corey Pavin
and Scott Verplank and won on
the second playoff hole. Watson
is hoping to become the first
back-to-back champion in Con-
necticut since Phil Mickelson
won in 2001 and 2002.
Since that victory, Watson has
won twice more: at Torrey Pines
in January, and at the Zurich
Classic in April. He is second in
the FedEx cup standings, and
credits his recent success to the
confidence that came with win-
ning in Connecticut.
It showed me that I can play
the game of golf, he said. It
showed me that by winning
here I can play with the guys. I
belonged out here, I guess. It
just gave me confidence, going
forward the rest of my career, no
matter how long or how short.
Mickelson isnt here this year,
nor is U.S. Open champion Rory
McIlroy or the injured Tiger
Woods, who has never played in
the tournament.
But tournament director
Nathan Grube said the field in-
cludes Padraig Harrington, Zach
Johnson, Anthony Kim and
Rickie Fowler.
Theres nothing like accom-
plishing a big goal, and thats
the goal of every PGA Tour play-
er is to win, especially when
youre just coming out of college
or the Nationwide Tour, Mahan
said. There is no better feel-
ing.
P R O F E S S I O N A L G O L F
Travelers Championship kind to young golfers
Woods to miss next weeks AT&T National
ORLANDO, Fla. Tiger Woods will miss
another golf tournament as his left leg recovers
from injuries.
Woods said on his Twitter feed that he will not
be playing in next weeks AT&T National outside
Philadelphia. The tournament supports Woods
foundation.
Woods tweeted: doctors orders. He says he
will be at the tournament to support the event,
and that hes feeling stronger but not ready to
get back to golf.
Woods now has missed three straight
tournaments he usually plays since withdrawing after nine holes at
last months Players Championship.
The British Open starts July 14, and there was no mention by
Woods on his status for the next major.
Three of last five tournament
titles went to initial winners,
including Watson and Mahan.

Kerrs dream turned into reality
last year, winning the LPGA
Championship in near-record
fashion. Shes ready to see if her
sweet swing cando it again.
Insomany ways, it was a per-
fect tournament, Kerr said of
her magnificent performance
last June at Locust Hill Country
Club. I dont knowif Ill ever be
able to top that, but Ill try.
Youve got to try.
On a course that had been
lengthened and narrowed to
make it worthy of a major cham-
pionship, Kerr was the leader af-
ter every round and shot 19-un-
der 269 to match the lowest
score inrelationtopar ina wom-
ens major.
Kerr, the 2007 U.S. Womens
Openchampion, closedwitha6-
under 66, giving her a 12-shot
marginof victoryover Song-Hee
Kim, tied for the second-largest
in the history of major cham-
pionships.
I had imagined it, Kerr said.
We all sawTiger Woods win by
15 at Pebble Beach. I watched
that and said, Well, why not?
You always think about it, but
that andimaginingit wouldhap-
pen are probably two different
things, but you always kind of
wishfor it. I guess I wishedfor it
because it happened.
Today, she begins the quest to
make it happenagain.
I would like to defend, Kerr
said. Thats a fungoal tobe able
togoandtryandaccomplish. Im
goingtotryandfollowwhat I did
last year, not put pressureonmy-
self, try to see if I can duplicate
some kind of performance that I
didlast year.
As commissioner Mike Whan
strives tomaketheLPGAaglob-
al circuitinthisdifficulteconom-
ic climate, the 2011schedule has
made it troublesome for players
to stay as sharp as theydlike.
There are only 24 official
events this year, and the sched-
ule certainly isnt steady. Only
sixtournamentswereheldinthe
first four months of the year and
the two in May were limited
the Sybase Match Play Cham-
pionship featured just 16 players
andthe Brazil Cup had30.
Kerr seeks to defend
LPGA tourney crown
Marcos Ambrose has had a
year to think about the mistake
that cost him his first NASCAR
Sprint Cup victory.
Now, hes a bit tired of rehash-
ing it.
Imtrying to forget about it to
be honest with you, Ambrose
said. Races come and you make
split-second decisions out there.
Its the closest Ive been to win-
ning a race so far and clearly its
on peoples mind this weekend,
but it doesnt matter.
Ambrose was closinginonthat
elusive win at Infineon Raceway
last June when he stalled his en-
gine while trying to conserve gas
under a late caution. His car
came to a stop, and although he
eventually restarted and tried to
move to his spot at the front of
the field, NASCAR ordered him
back to seventh place for failing
to maintain reasonable speed
he finished sixth.
He returns to Sonoma, Calif.,
the site of that gaffe, still winless
on the circuit. No matter how
muchhe tries toput that unpleas-
ant finish behind him, the affable
Australian knows the questions
are unavoidable this week.
We were doing great in the
race, we had a good strategy al-
though the way it was running
down, I was running out of tires,
running out of fuel, and getting
ready for a late restart, he said.
I dont need to look back on
what happened last year. It is
what it is. I couldnt get the mo-
tor refired for whatever reason.
This year we have a brand new
team, brand new chief, brand
new sponsor and brand new car-
buretor, so I should have no is-
sues. Just looking forward to get-
ting out there
and trying to
win it.
Not long af-
ter his Sonoma
mishap, Am-
brose said he
would leave
JTG Daugherty
Racing at the end of the season.
Hes now the driver of the No. 9
Ford for Richard Petty Motor-
sports. He enters Sundays race
21st in the points standings, up
five spots from his finish last sea-
son, but he still hasnt won.
This weekend could be one of
his best chances. Long consid-
ered one of the top road course
drivers in the series, he finished
third at Infineon in 2009 to go
along with last years sixth-place
showing. That 2009 finishwas re-
markable considering he blew a
motor inpractice andhadto start
at the back of the field and forfeit
his third-place qualifying posi-
tion.
Although he describes oval
racing as the pure form of NAS-
CAR, hes not about to shy away
fromhis area of expertise. Cours-
es like Infineon are where he has
a chance to shine.
Theres a lot going on behind
the wheel. Youre obviously
changing gears, youre turning
left and right, youre managing
front and left brake pressure,
sometimes youre doing it to-
gether. The track is undulating
and theres a lot of dust thats
thrown off by other cars that run
across the track, he said.
Theres just a lot going on on a
road course. You really have to
stay very focused on your own
car and not really worry about
whether a guy is pulling away for
a lap or two. It normally balances
out.
Ambroses best finish of 2010
was on another road course at
Watkins Glen. He finished third
and might have won, but the
handling on the last set of tires
was off.
Now hes hoping for a break-
through at Sonoma, and he wont
be the only one who benefits
from a victory. Stanley Black &
Decker, one of RPMs sponsors,
will donate $1 million to Chil-
drens Miracle Network Hospi-
tals if Ambrose wins.
And if I really mess it up and
come dead last, we are still going
to donate $100,000, Ambrose
said.
History suggests Ambrose will
probably be closer to first than
last. Of course, as he learned a
year ago, coming close can make
defeat even more agonizing.
Just when you think youve
seen the most of what NASCAR
can throw you, something else
pops up, he said. Impretty sure
my car parked on the side of the
hill last year trying to get restart-
ed is one of those moments. Un-
fortunately, I was the one in that
car, but it was a fairly surreal mo-
ment.

LAS VEGAS Corey Perry
crashed the Sedins NHL MVP
party.
The Anaheim Ducks forward,
who scored a league-best 50
goals, won the Hart Trophy on
Wednesday night. His surprise
win came at the expense of scor-
ing champion Daniel Sedin of
the Vancouver Canucks, who
was trying to complete an un-
precedented MVP double dip af-
ter his twin brother and team-
mate Henrik took the honors
last year.
Perrys win capped the two-
hour NHL Awards ceremony.
Even he said he didnt expect to
take home the trophy. Tampa
Bays Martin St. Louis, who won
the Lady Byng Trophy for gen-
tlemanly and excellent play, was
the third MVP finalist.
Perry surged to the goal title,
scoring 19 in his final 16 games.
During that stretch, Anaheim
moved from11th to fourth in the
Western Conference.
The Sedins didnt pull off the
back-to-back MVP wins, but
theydoownthepast twoscoring
titles. Daniel won it this season
with 104 points including 41
goals. He was second in the
league with a plus-30 rating.
St. Louis had 68 assists, sec-
ond to Henrik Sedins 75, and
was second to Daniel Sedin with
99 points.
Detroits Nicklas Lidstrom re-
turnedtotheawards platformby
winning his seventh Norris Tro-
phy as the leagues best defense-
man, beating out Nashvilles
Shea Weber and Bostons Zdeno
Chara.
Lidstromtied Doug Harvey as
a seven-time winner, one behind
record-holder Bobby Orr.
Lidstrom won the award for
the first time since 2008, the last
of his second three-peat. His win
came at the start of a glammed-
up show in Sin City, where the
league honored its brightest
stars from the 2010-11 season.
Tim Thomas added his sec-
ondVezina Trophy togowithhis
recent Stanley Cup title. The
Boston Bruins goalie earned top
NHL honors after a stellar sea-
son that culminated in his first
championship.
Thomas set anNHLrecordfor
save percentage when he fin-
ishedat .938, surpassing Domin-
ik Haseks .937 set in the1998-89
season. He also hada league-low
2.00 goals-against average and
nine shutouts.
Those imposing figures lifted
him over fellow Vezina finalists
Roberto Luongo of the Western
Conference champion Vancouv-
er Canucks and Nashvilles Pek-
ka Rinne in voting by the
leagues 40 general managers.
Rinne had25wins in42starts,
ranking second in save percent-
age.
Dan Bylsma of the Pittsburgh
Penguins picked up the Jack
Adams Award as coach of the
year, and Ryan Kesler of the Van-
couver Canucks ended Pavel
Datsyuks three-year run as
Selke Trophy winner, honoring
the best defensive forward.
Bylsma was recognizedfor the
job he did in leading the Pen-
guins to the playoffs, despite be-
ingwithout star forwards Sidney
Crosby and Evgeni Malkin for
much of the season.

Ducks Perry wins MVP award
By OSKAR GARCIA
Associated Press
make an impact, Williams said.
Even in whats considered a
less-than-stellar NBA draft, the
Cavaliers have plenty of options
tonight at the Prudential Center
in Newark, N.J., when they be-
come the first team since the
1983 Houston Rockets with two
picks in the top four.
Theyre expected to start with
Irving, considered the favorite
since the Cavaliers won the lot-
tery last month. Though the
Duke point guard played just 11
games during his freshman sea-
son because of a toe injury on his
right foot, the numbers he put in
his limited time seem too good
to pass up.
It definitely feels good, you
know, knowing that Im still pro-
jected to go No. 1, Irving said.
Well see how it goes tomorrow,
but its an honor to be at the No. 1
spot right now.
The 6-foot-2 guard averaged
17.5 points while shooting 53
percent from the floor, 46 per-
cent from 3-point range and 90
percent from the foul line. He re-
turned from his injury in time to
play in the NCAA tournament
where his Blue Devils were over-
whelmed by Williams in Arizo-
nas round of 16 victory and he
said that proves there should be
no question about his health.
Playing in the NCAA tourna-
ment was the deciding factor for
me, Irving said. If I didnt play
in the NCAA tournament, I
would have been back at Duke
for my sophomore season. I just
wanted to kind of limit all the
questions on my health and dura-
bility.
The Cavaliers also pick fourth
the No. 1 pick was acquired
from the Los Angeles Clippers
last season in the Baron Davis
trade giving them the ability
to add a big man, perhaps Kanter
or another from the lengthy list
of Europeans available, if they se-
lected Irving first.
They were still weighing their
options as of Wednesday after-
noon with their first No. 1 pick
since taking James in 2003.
Theyre keeping their cards
closely, as they should, and well
see howit goes tomorrownight,
Irving said.
Minnesota holds the No. 2
pick and seems open to dealing
it. Utah has Nos. 3 and 12, the
latter potentially putting the
Jazz in the difficult position of
deciding whether they want to
keep BYU star Jimmer Fredette
in state.
Fredette led the nation with
28.9 points per game and was
honored by The Associated
Press and nearly other organiza-
tion that gives out a player of the
year award. But he is perhaps the
most scrutinized player in this
draft full of question marks, with
doubts over whether he has the
quickness to get his shot off in
the NBA or defend the much
quicker guards he will face on a
nightly basis.
Not to worry. Fredette says
during his carefully devised
workout schedule he perform-
ed for only Utah, Sacramento, In-
diana, New York and Phoenix
he gained confidence that his
game will translate.
I learned that Ima very confi-
dent guy and that I can play
against anyone, Fredette said. I
feel like I can play all the guys
out there, played against some of
the toughest athletes and players
that are guards in this draft. So it
took away confidence and know-
ing that I can play in this league.
The criticism of the drafts
strength is due largely to the
NBAs uncertain labor situation.
With the collective bargaining
agreement set to expire June 30
and owners and players far apart
on a newdeal, the possibility of a
lockout and a shortened or can-
celed 2011-12 season remains.

Once again
today, very
humid air will
remain in place
over our region,
and with a shal-
low trough of
low pressure
nearby we can
expect showers
to form along
with scattered
storms. The
chance of rain
starts this morn-
ing lasting up
until around 10
this evening.
Tomorrow, the
wind will shift
more toward the
west, and this
will pave the way
for less humid
weather to move
in over the
weekend. There
is still the
chance for a
stormtomorrow,
but Saturday
should remain
dry and Sunday
is looking nice as
well. Our long-
range forecast
for late next
week into the
Fourth of July is
showing above
normal tempera-
tures.

NATIONAL FORECAST: A low pressure system extending from the Great Lakes to the Northeast, and
southwest from there across the Ohio Valley and Mississippi River will be responsible for scattered
thunderstorms along the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts. Scattered showers associated with this system will

SPECIAL SECTION: ACTIVE, VIBRANT SENIORS
AKRON, Ohio Dont call
them old. Dont call them se-
niors. And heaven help anyone
who calls them elderly.
The oldest of the baby boom-
ers, born between1946 and1964,
turn 65 this year. But you wont
findtheminmany senior centers.
Most think they are far too young
to be old.
In Stark County, Ohio, for in-
stance, the Lake Senior Center,
also known as the Lake Adult
Community Center, is closing on
Sept. 30 because of funding prob-
lems and lack of participation.
Its just like a church that dies
because there are no new mem-
bers coming in, said Christine
Thompson, a volunteer at the
center.
Sometimes called the Me Gen-
eration, the now 47- to 65-year-
olds grew up in a time of sex,
drugs and rock-n-roll. Older
boomers burned their bras, pro-
tested and grew their hair long.
Theyvebeenblamedfor all kinds
of social ills, including an in-
creased divorce rate. Thousands
diedintheVietnamWar, andthey
pushed the country forward by
demanding equal rights for wom-
en and minorities and lobbying
for cleaner air and water.
Now, some worry that with 80
million boomers in the United
States retiring at the rate of 300
an hour, the strain will be too
much for Social Security. And so-
cially, they are redefining oldage.
How many 55-year-olds do
you look at and say, They are
old? asked Thompson, 47.
Most are not like our parents,
who worked in the fields and fac-
tories and were physically
abused (by their jobs).
A lot of baby boomers do
things like bleach their teeth, dye
their hair and wear acrylic nails.
Of those who have held white-
collar jobs, you cant tell their age
and never will.
According to a 2009 Pew Re-
searchsurvey, thetypical boomer
believes old age doesnt begin un-
til 72.
And when asked whether to-
days 65-year-olds are the same as
65-year-olds froma couple of dec-

When it comes to left and
right brains, the twaindont

same head.
Not so for Sylvia Appel of
Jenkins Township, a man-
ager of systems develop-
ment with a math, physics
and software engineering
education who not only su-
pervises creative types but
has tackled the imaginative
arts herself. Both sides of
her well-engaged brain get
along swimmingly.
As she approaches anoth-
er milestone birthday, her
65th, shes not certain what
the future will bring, but
she expects something
wild.
Perhaps another trip to
Vegas. Or out West to see
her grown daughter and
two grandchildren. And
next year, almost certainly,
yet another jaunt to Europe
with her younger sister and
regular travel companion.

When almost 65 feels like 35
Back in the summer of 1949,
when Heidi Selecky and Paul
Jarecki were bothinfants inthe
close-knit community of Glen
Lyon, their mothers ran into
eachother andcomparednotes
on the newborns.
Now, if either of the two
women suggested as people
often do that the little boy in
this baby carriage and the little
girl in that baby carriage might
grow up to marry each other
someday, they probably just
had a good chuckle about it.
But thats exactly what hap-
pened. Heidi and Paul ex-
changed vows in St. Adalberts
Church, on Oct. 16, 2010, with
Heidis cousin the Rev. Adrian
Tirpak officiating.
If youve done the math, you
realize Heidi and Paul were 61
years young at the time.
Beaming as they shared
their story earlier this week,
the couple said the right per-
son is worth the wait.
They know theyve entered
their marriageafirst wedding
for both a bit later than most
people do, and they cheerfully
acknowledged that fact by
choosing Paul McCartneys
The Long and Winding Road
as the music for their first
dance as husband and wife.
So where did the winding
roads of their lives take them?
For a few early miles, or
years, the roads actually coinci-
ded, with Heidi and Paul at-
tending classes together in ju-
nior and senior high school.
As ninth-grade students,
they were even paired for the
1964 graduation march from
the former Pulaski Junior High
School.
But after graduating from
the former Newport Township
High School in 1967, their
paths diverged.
Heidi enrolled at what was
then Marywood College, grad-
uatingwithabachelor of arts in
English in1971. Then she went
to graduate school at Villanova
University to prepare for a ca-
reer as a librarian.
Paul enrolled at what was
thenWilkes College andgradu-

Finally, after 40 years.
Weaver is a 57-year-oldTunkhannock

decided it was about
time to get her bache-
lors degree. This

Calif., she finally
achieved her goal and so much more.

English literature, an academic area
that came up by chance.
Her adviser told her that, based on
her transcripts, the best major choices
that would allow her to get a degree in
the least amount of classes were En-
glish literature and criminal justice.
Weaver had no interest in the latter and
no experience with the former.
I pickedEnglishlit knowingfull well
that Imnot much of a reader, she said.
It forced me to learn howto read prop-
erly and how to critique writing, ana-
lyze and really understand what the au-
thor is trying to say. It was a big chal-
lenge.
Another challenge she faced was
learning among much younger stu-
dents.
The thought of walking into a class
filled with kids in their 20s made me a
little uneasy, she said, but after the
first day I became comfortable. I found
that theywereall verykindandactually
relied on my experience to help them. I

BIRTHDAYS
ARE ANNUAL
milestones that
mark our pro-
gression, I
guess, on the
road from dust
to dust. Before this dust settles,
Id like to have lived a fulfilled
life with few regrets.
Thats not likely, however.
Truth is, none of us ever has
enough birthdays to complete
our bucket lists so that when we
close our eyes for the final time
we can feel satisfied that we
have been in the game for X
number of years, did our best
and accomplished everything
we set out to accomplish.
It just isnt possible. Life, they
say, is short at its longest.
But we all have choices along
the way: choices to either sit on
the sidelines and cheer on our
contemporaries as life parades
by, or throw off our warm-ups
and run onto the field.
This, I suspect, is how AARP
and others measure the vibran-
cy of us older folks those of
us older than 50, 60 or gasp
even older.
As I approach another birth-
day, I can say I sure dont feel
old. I enjoy an active life, and
my mind still functions in a
contemporary mode that would
not embarrass my kids or grand-
kids if I had any, which I dont.
Now, that is a regret I will carry
to the grave.
I still ride a bike, play basket-
ball, fish, dance and swim. I
dont do any of these things
better than I did 10 or 20 or 50
years ago. Except for the fish-
ing. But the important thing
here is that I can still do them
and do them reasonably well.
However, activity is not the
only definition of vibrancy. To
me, a vibrant person is not only
physcially active, but also spiri-
tual, compassionate and a hu-
manitarian.
The process of maturation is
much slower in men than wom-
en, for sure. Most men I know
have never matured, while most
women I know reached maturity
as far back as puberty. Women
just get it quicker than men;
they know whats important and
why. Men, on the other hand,
can barely discern what it is,
hence that look of a deer caught
in the headlights when the wife
weeps at a forgotten anniversary.
Age should never be a barrier
to fun. In fact, as we get older,
our appetite for fun increases
almost as quickly as our wais-
tlines and cholesterol counts.
We want to participate in all the
things we never had time for
while we were raising our kids
and furthering our careers as we
numbly went through life never
realizing what was really impor-
tant. Responsibilities of parent-
ing, mortgages and tuition pay-
ments tend to blur our vision of
everything else around us.
Then one day we wake up in a
different world. Were either
divorced, widowed, retired, emp-
ty-nested or just plain bored. And
we want something to do.
So we gather our circle of
friends usually high-school
chums and we go to dinner, to
dances, to the casino, to con-
certs, to the health club. We
walk on the levee, we join a
bowling league or play softball.
We take classes, we learn, we
travel, we follow politics, we
watch CNN and FOX.
This vibrancy, if you will, is
not something only some of us
can find. We all have it within
us; we just need to bring it out.
Sometimes we become more
vibrant after a life-changing
experience. Whatever the rea-
son, this vibrancy is related to
attitude.
We decide we arent going to
limp feebly with our walkers.
No, we are going to go kicking
and screaming doing the Maca-
rena to our graves. Dammit, we
are vibrant. Were older than we
used to be, but we have fun.
Ouch, my back!
Were not infiltrating the
nightclubs where younger gen-
erations gather to perform their
own ritualistic dances. We
would never listen to that mu-
sic anyway. We have our own
music and our own venues. We
know our place.
Call us baby boomers if you
want, but this is my generation.
We happened to have been born
into a much simpler world
where family values, manners
and good clean fun were not
only appreciated but part of the
only life we knew. We asked not
what our country could do for
us; we asked what we could do
for our country.
We lived through the 60s,
man. We watched and participa-
ted in a world that was changing
at the speed of light, and thank
God we were there to steer the
course. Because if our children
and grandchildren were charged
with the same responsibility, I
dread to think what the world
would look like today.
So dont you dare laugh at us
when you see us dance. Dont
disrespect us because we move
a little more slowly in the gro-
cery aisle. Dont dismiss us as
old fogeys because we have
gray hair, pudgy bodies or wear
cardigan sweaters. We some-
times forget things, but we are
vibrant!
We deserve the right to dance
like nobodys watching. We
have earned the right to remain
active in a society that scares
the hell out of most of us.Vi-
brancy is the way we choose to
live. Like pressure, it comes
from within. We can either deal
with it or let it pass us by.
I would much prefer to em-
barrass myself in front of my
friends by trying to Jitterbug
than to sit at home and watch
The Golden Girls for the
umpteenth time.
And, yes, I want bacon on
that burger.
Dont stifle our vibrancy
BILL OBOYLE
P E R S P E C T I V E
ades ago, Inese Alvarez, director
of the Akron-basedRetired&Se-
nior Volunteer Program, emitted
a long sigh.
No, they are different, said
Alvarez, 59.
Weve grown up with youth,
health and fitness. The older
folks didnt grow up with health
clubs.
In Springfield Township,
Ohio, Bobby Dinkins, director of
the communitys Boyd Esler Se-
nior/Community Center, said
the word community was add-
ed to attract more people.
Senior centers are tradition-
ally looked at as a social gather-
ing place, a place to meet with
friends on a weekly basis. Activ-
ities tend to be passive in nature.
Playing cards, bingo, ceramics,
board games. ... Thats what se-
nior centers have traditionally
offered. Todays seniors want to
be more active. Also, people are
working longer and have less
time, so they dont have as much
time to spend at the center.
As a result, Dinkins said, the
center is offering programming
such as ballroom-dance lessons,
Zumba classes and something
thats certain to make boomers
feel like kids again: Were wait-
ing on funding to be finalized,
but weve been awarded a grant
to establish a senior playground
at our lakefront park.
Alvarez is quicktoboast about
the older adults she works with
who volunteer in Akron and sur-
rounding communities.
Theaverageageis something
like 74 or 75, and they are busier
than anyone I know, she said. I
also have the challenge of
recruiting 55- to 64-year-olds.
But there may be some good
news for Alvarez. According to a
study conducted for Merrill
Lynch by Harris Interactive,
there has been a transformation
of the Me Generation into the
We Generation.
The boomer generation has
grown up nowwith deep con-
cerns for the well-being of their
children, their parents and their
communities, the study reads.
Ten times more respondents
to the survey said they put oth-
ers first as opposed to putting
themselves first.
And for Alvarez, the report in-
dicates its probably women she
will have to draw upon. Thats
because boomer men and wom-
en apparently have different
ideas of retirement.
Boomer men are looking for-
ward to working less, relaxing
more and spending more time
with their spouse, while boomer
women viewthe dual liberations
of empty nesting and retirement
as providing new opportunities
for career development, commu-
nity involvement and continued
personal growth, the study
found.
Dinkins, 45, doesnt think ba-
by boomers are in denial that
they are getting old; rather
theyre looking at it as a chal-
lenge.
And thats all fine and good
as long as you dont call them
seniors.

rowing old and entering the period known as retire-
ment is a starting, not an ending, point. If you fall
under the category of Golden Boomer retired or
soon to retire rest assured hope lives on. Today, the ster-
eotypical view of aging adults moving from a vibrant work
force and caring for children to sitting in rocking chairs, eat-
ing Jell-O and watching television all day, has fallen by the
wayside along with Red Dye No. 2 and corded telephones.

be finding a moment to figure
out the future.
I had to sign up for Medi-
care, Appel, a widow whose
husband, Paul, died two years
ago, notes. Thesystempenalizes
those of her age who wait, she
explains. But I dont want to re-
tire.
That could be because of the
close friendships shes formed
everywhere shes ever worked,
including HarperCollins, a phys-
ics lab and, back in the day, even
the JCPenney photography stu-
dio the hardest job in the
whole world or it could be be-
cause, in a sense, shes only just
begun the most recent chapter
of her professional life.
Appel, who studied math and
physics at Marywood College
(now Marywood University), at
a traditional age, later went back
to earn a second bachelors de-
gree in management informa-
tion systems, then continued on
for a masters degree in software
engineering at the University of
Scranton, which she earned at
age 50.
I was 40 when I first started
working on computers, she
notes.
Plenty of folks, women espe-
cially, are loathe to throw those
kinds of numbers aroundopenly,
but as for her own age and the
age at which she took on so
many of her lifes challenges, Ap-
pel pointedly says, I dont care.
Infact, thelooming65surpris-
es her. The years goby soquick-
ly, she says. I dont feel any dif-
ferent now than when I was 35,
in terms of socializing, working,
whatever.
At HarperCollins, shes the
old lady of the group, but the
groups a close-knit one that
hardly holds her years against
her.
She supervises all men and
two women but regularly has
lunch with the same handful of
women, with whom she also en-
joys plentiful post-work happy
hours andhas entertainedinside
her meticulously kept home.
Her social circle also includes
former co-workers ranging in
age from their 40s to 50s who
regularly gather for coveted
girls nights out.
These dont happen perhaps
as frequently as shed like, but
blame lack of time, not desire.
Appel is also a league bowler
andanaccomplishedoneat that.
In 2008, she was part of a
state-championship team and
has the $33 earnings check to
prove it.
The former confirmation-
class teacher and assistant choir
director at St. John the Evange-
list Church in Pittston also
would consider taking up such
roles at her current church, St.
Maria Goretti in Laflin, except
choir nights conflict with league
nights on Wednesdays.
Then theres the teaching gig.
Appel is an adjunct faculty mem-
ber, in management information
systems and computers, at Mi-
sericordia University in Dallas
Township. On top of that, she
makes a work trip to New York
City every few weeks. And, yes,
she drives, unintimidatedby any
bridge, tunnel or traffic jam.
Extra days often get tacked on
to the trips because, after all, its
New York City, home of Broad-
way and the Metropolitan Op-
era, which are favorite haunts.
I love it. I would live there if I
could, she says, explaining
there are two great things about
her job: One is books, and the
other is New York City.
The passion for the Big Apple
and the stage might be ex-
plained by her own dalliance
with the theater in a previous
life, when she worked with the
Wilkes-Barre Artistic Theatre
Ensemble. She startedby selling
tickets, then moved on to lights
and sound and eventually got
connived into some acting.
Her big role came in a produc-
tion of Alfred Uhrys Last Night
of Ballyhoo, in which she
played Boo Levy, a social-climb-
ing Jewish mother obsessed
with marrying off her daughter.
The passion for books, on the
other hand, has an obvious
source, considering her latest
line of work.
A home office is filled with
hardcovers and paperbacks,
mysteries prominent among
them, and a closet has even been
converted into bookshelves.
Whats the last book she read?
This should come as no sur-
prise, considering her disregard
for age parameters: Twilight 3.
(Twilight 4 is on order.)
Sure, its considered a teen
series, but a friend lent her a
copy, and she quickly got hook-
ed, noting she was surprised by
the sensualityas well as the qual-
ity of the writing.
Television and movies are oth-
er preferred forms of entertain-
ment.
Appel recently saw (and
loved) the raunchy rom-com
Bridesmaids and enjoys film
festivals at the Dietrich Theater
in Tunkhannock.
At a recent showing of the Os-
car-nominatedTheKids AreAll
Right, she remembered how
some of the older folks in at-
tendance audibly gasped at
some of the content. It didnt
faze her.
She alsohas analmost-full dig-
ital video recorder at home hold-
ingprograms she loves notably
Hot InCleveland withthe cra-
zy ladies andthe unbelievable
Betty White and at least 40 un-
watchedinstallments of The El-
len DeGeneres Show.
Someday those will get
viewed certainly.
Perhaps if and when this thing
called retirement actually does
happen.
For now, however, Appel
wouldlike todotwothings soon-
er rather than later: start a card
club and a book club.
Players and readers are wel-
come to apply.
SYLVIA
40 years ago, so I had a lot to of-
fer.
She came to find she was fully
accepted in no time.
I took an acting class, and stu-
dents were actually telling the
professor, We want Vicki on our
team.
Already on the path to achiev-
ing one goal, Weaver decided to
set another.
I really wanted to graduate
with honors because I missed it
in high school by a small frac-
tion, she said.
I thought that maybe I
could graduate magna cum
laude. And then I said well,
maybe I could graduate sum-
ma cum laude.
Weaver did just that, ending
her college career with a 3.815
grade point average.
During the past four years she
continued to push herself, volun-
teering to present papers and
submit her work to conventions,
where she would read what she
wrote.
I went completely outside my
comfort zone, she said. Like I
tell my daughter, its an automat-
ic no if you dont ask or try, so
why not go for it?
Weaver took a special inter-
est in poetry and has become a
published poet in the Taj Ma-
hal Review, a literary journal.
She is an administrative secre-
tary at Kings College, but even if
she was not working in an aca-
demic setting, she would have
pushed herself to get a degree,
she said.
Somehow, I would have found
grants, she said.
I had a burning desire to earn
that diploma, and I would have
worked really hard to find a way
to get back into classes.
Before moving to the area in
2000, Weaver worked at a univer-
sity in California for 15 years.
I love academia, andI love stu-
dents. They keep you young, and
its fun to watch them grow and
go through all four years and
graduate.
She would like to use her de-
gree to help educate the students
she loves so dearly.
Im going to take a bit of a
break now, but then Im going to
go for my masters in reading,
she said.
I would like to become part
of a program where I could
help youngsters enjoy read-
ing, maybe not analyze or look
at it critically but just enjoy it.
It seems like thats a dying art.
If a child has a chance to read
Huckleberry Finn or play a
computer game, what do you
think most would choose?
By the time I finish my mas-
ters and settle into that, I
might be 67, but who cares?
she said. I never want to stop
learning.

ated with a bachelor of science in
biology in 1971. Then he headed
to Auburn University in Alabama
for a masters in microbiology.
After Tropical Storm Agnes
devastated the Wyoming Valley
in 1972, Heidi volunteered to
help the recovery efforts at
Wilkes College Library, where
she soon became an employee.
She is still there, nearly 40 years
later.
Paul lived away from Glen
Lyon for years but said he always
hoped to return to his home-
town. Ona returnvisit in1981, he
ran into Heidi at the Glen Lyon
Bank. They hadnt seen each oth-
er for 15 years, Heidi recalled.
We struck up a conversation
and became friends from that
point on. He had jobs in Philadel-
phia and later Harrisburg and
would come to Glen Lyon occa-
sionally on weekends. We would
go to a movie or a baseball game
or for pizza.
The courtship was a slow one,
perhaps because Heidi was car-
ing for her elderly mother, Helen,
who died in 2003 at age 91.
Then Pauls mother, Wanda,
fell ill, and Paul, by then having
movedbacktoGlenLyon, helped
his brother, John, care for her at
home, with Heidi pitching in
whenever she could.
After Pauls mother died in
2007, Paul andHeidi foundthem-
selves volunteering for the New-
port Township Community Or-
ganization, gathering and com-
piling historic photos for a fund-
raiser calendar and two DVDs.
That in itself was a long and ar-
duous road of effort.
If we were still speaking to
each other after that, Heidi said,
we were meant to be together.
We were watching TV one
night, and I said, Do you want to
get married? Paul remem-
bered. She said, Yes. I said, Do
you want to elope? and she said
No.
Sothe couple planneda church
wedding, one in which Heidis
sister Mary and Pauls brother
John would stand up for them. It
would be a time for Heidis dear-
est friend, Mary Sheehy from
Dundee Gardens to prepare the
floral arrangements andfor Heidi
to fulfill some age-old traditions.
Inkeeping withthe Slovak cus-
tom of a babushka dance, the
bride danced with all the guests
at her wedding. But instead of
simply adding a babushka to her
wedding attire, she changed into
a full ethnic costume, complete
with apron, embroidery and a
vest. My uncle brought it from
Slovakia 70 years ago, she said.
After a wedding trip to Ver-
mont, the couple settled in their
Glen Lyon hometown. Heidi con-
tinues to work at the library at
Wilkes University, and Paul is an
environmental chemist for the
Pennsylvania Department of En-
vironmental Protection.
They enjoy Phillies baseball
and the occasional Penn State
football game. And theyre still
community-minded volunteers.
Even if they go for a walk on
thetrails, their friendTomKash-
atus said, Theyre picking up
aluminum cans.
Theyre also considerate of
each other, and Heidi said she re-
ally appreciates Pauls thought-
fulness, in gestures both great
and small.
It never fails, but he always
opens the car door for me, she
said with a smile.
Newlyweds Paul and Heidi Jarecki look over their wedding photos at their home in Glen Lyon.

ond career.
A second career was Douai-
hys plan, incidentally, when she
retiredin2004 after teaching for
34 years in the Scranton School
District.
Now its my turn, she said,
smiling as she sorted through
photos from England in her art
studio in the Downtown Arts
building on North Franklin
Street. Images from her recent
trip will be on exhibit from5 to 8
p.m. July 15 during downtown
Wilkes-Barres Third Friday Art
Walk.
I see beauty everywhere,
Douaihy said, as she admired a
photo of a crusaders tomb she
shot at Salisbury Cathedral. The
tombincludeda statue of the an-
cient warrior, in full armor. At
the edge of his feet is his trusty
dog, she pointed out.
In another favorite photo, she
captured the image of a second
photographer who seemedto be
taking a picture of her, just as
she shot of photo of him, framed
by the massive boulders of
Stonehenge.
As many travelers know, any
kind of journey can be tiring.
But improving your fitness level
through exercise can give
you more stamina.
Its become part of my life,
74-year-old JoAnne Rygiel of
Wyoming said Tuesday morn-
ing after taking part in a yoga
class led by instructor Geeta
Prasad at the Odyssey Fitness
Center in Wilkes-Barre.
Rygiel credits the deep
breathing and stretches of the
Eastern discipline, which she
has studied for three years, with
bringing her blood pressure
down to 116/80 and helping her
feel good all over.
Mainly to reduce stress, Da-
vid Zeveney, 68, of the Hanover
section of Nanticoke said, ex-
plaining why he takes the class.
Its a great way to stretch your
hamstrings and everything
else.
Its very good for you, con-
firmed Prasad, the instructor,
who is 67 and lives in Pittston.
She credits yoga with keeping
her asthma under control I
only use the inhaler when Im
around a dog or dust. as well
as sparing her the need for sur-
gery to remove varicose veins.
I just wish more young peo-
ple would come to the class,
she said. Sometimes they think
you have to jump up and down
and sweat buckets to do any
good.
The deep, controlled breath-
ing of yoga brings more oxygen
into your bloodstream, which
helps rid the body of toxins, Pra-
sad explained. But to get bene-
fits from yoga, she said, you
must practice regularly, not just
once in awhile.
The oldest student in her
Tuesday-morning class, 91-year-
old Mary Misewich of Wilkes-
Barre, takes that advice toheart,
attending yoga several times a
week, along with other classes
at the Odyssey.
In fact, immediately after yo-
ga ended, Misewich rushed off
to the Silver and Fit class that
combined aerobics, handheld
weights and zigzagging
through a ladder that was ac-
tually a mat on the floor that
looked like a ladder.
Its all designed to keep their
minds sharp, said instructor
Mary Majikes of Wilkes-Barre,
who just turned 50 herself and
knows the benefits of staying ac-
tive.
Flexibility is key to that age
group, said Pat Reilly of Down-
town Dojo in Wilkes-Barre, who
has taught martial arts to individ-
uals well into their 60s. It keeps
your muscles strong, and youre
less likely to be injured.
Older people neednt worry
theyll be expected to throwop-
ponents to the ground, or be
thrown themselves, when they
sign up for a martial arts.
If youre 16, you can fall and
bounce back up. Not so much
when youre 60, said Reilly, 43,
who designs more gentle work-
outs for older students.
A gentle and artistic time is
just what Essy Davidowitz, 77,
of Kingston, is lookingfor when
she has twice-weekly private
ballroom dance lessons with
Raphael and Lauren Cooper
from Arts YOUniverse some-
times on the same day she has a
harp lesson with Peabody Con-
servatory graduate Megan Da-
vis.
They have such beautiful
souls, she said of her three
young teachers.
Ona recent afternoon, Raphael
and Lauren Cooper demonstrat-
ed a waltz; then Raphael danced
withDavidowitz, whosaidtheex-
ercisehelps combat somedifficul-
ties she has with balance.
We learn from Essy, too,
said Lauren Cooper, 28. Shell
give us advice about life and
marriage and loving what you
do. We always leave feeling
good.
Davidowitz returned the com-
pliment. They are so full of posi-
tive energy and so enthused
about life, you just want to emu-
late them, she said, sounding ve-
ry enthusiastic herself. They
make you feel more alive.

You can put lots of things on a bucket list, sure. But when we spoke to some area folks about what they would like to do before they die,
the running theme seemed to be travel. For fun, for family, from Morocco to Poland, this group of locals has been bitten by the travel bug.
Roseann and I just got
married, and wed love
to do some traveling.
Ive never been out of
the country and would
love to go to Italy.
Tom Cox, 69, Dorrance Township
Wed also really love
to travel within the
states as well, just all
over the country. Were
hoping to start doing
that this fall.
Roseann Cox, 68,
Dorrance Township
I want to go to Poland to
see my old country. My
grandfather and great-
grandfather are from
there. Imactually plan-
ning a trip in August.
Clem Piech, 79,
Hanover Township
I want to go on a
cruise, any cruise at all
to anywhere, just to get
away.
Beverly Hillard, 58,
Hanover Township
I would love to take
my wife, Linda, on a
safari in Africa. Its
something shes always
wanted to do.
John Shovlin, 58,
Hanover Township
I want to ride camels
in Morocco, just like the
Real Housewives of
New York did.
Martina Gaetano, 50,
Mountain Top
BOSTON I dont, I am somewhat
embarrassedtoadmit, haveabucket list.
And I am reminded of this every day in
some form or fashion. A former col-
league whom I admired greatly
dies at the age of 63. Afriend posts a no-
tice on Facebook thats hes leaving for a
three-week trip to Africa. Amid those
two extreme examples, I toil, finger to
keyboard writing for the masses; hands
on a steering wheel, driving children
hither and yon to wrestling, basketball
and track practices.
Should I create a wish list of to-dos be-
fore dying as did the characters Edward
and Carter in the movie The Bucket
List? And assuming the answer is yes
(not sure why it wouldnt be), whats the
best way to do that?
The best way to approach it is to an-
swer a few questions. In fact, almost ev-
erythingabout abucket list canbeboiled
down to these questions: What makes
you happy? What are your interests?
Howmuchdoyour interests cost, anddo
you have the money and time to pursue
the things you are interested in and that
make you happy? Thats pretty much it,
according to the experts.
We create a bucket list because we
want to be happy, said John Nelson, au-
thor of What Color is Your Parachute?
For Retirement.
Some of the latest research on happi-
ness suggests we need to pay attention
to two very different kinds of happiness:
experiencing and evaluating, he
said.
The experiencing part, he added, re-
lates to happiness in the moment and in-
cludes the kinds of positive emotions we
get from doing fun or engaging activ-
ities. Those would be the exciting ad-
ventures or fun episodes from the mo-
vie, Nelson said.
The evaluating part, meanwhile, re-
lates to happiness in reflecting on our
life as a whole, and includes the kinds of
fulfillment we get from meaning or pur-
pose. Those would be the sense of ac-
complishment and deep personal con-
nections from the movie, Nelson said.
The key to creating a bucket list is to
make sure it addresses both the experi-
encing and evaluating sides of happi-
ness, he said.
For his part, Art Koff, founder and
CEO of RetiredBrains.com, said identi-
fying your passions and interests is the
key ingredient of building a bucket list.
What youreadandwhat youresearch
as well as whomyoushouldconsult with
depends on their identifying areas of in-
terest, Koff said. Once any itemon the
actual list is identified, Internet research
will provide more information on the
specific activity.
For instance, if you want to travel, you
might have to read 1,000 Places to See
Before You Die or 101 Things To Do
Before You Die for some ideas.
As for going back to school, Koff sug-
gests that you enroll in courses that
youve always wanted to take or pursue
anadvanceddegree. (I have a friendwho
is retired and presently enrolled in a
French literature course at Boston Uni-
versityandreadingthe works of Margue-
rite de Navarre, including The Hepta-
meron.)
Spendingtime withfamily andfriends
is amongthe most commonitems onthe
bucket list. Timothy Harris, a principal
withprincipal at the consultingfirmMil-
liman and the author of Living to 100
and Beyond, says, social connections
including family and friends are impor-
tant andhave beenshowntoaddtolong-
evity. This isnt restricted to Facebook
connections, although that can be a
start. Spend, instead, facetimewithfam-
ily and friends.
Creating the items for your bucket list
also will require talking with your
spouse and family, according to Koff.
Building a list without letting your loved
ones in on the secret could spell trouble
later on.
By the way, Koff alsonotedthat theres
afoundationcalledNever TooLate
that specializes in making the aspira-
tions of senior citizens and terminally ill
adults come true. Visit this site to learn
more about Never Too Late. http://
www.nevertoolate.org/
Identifying your interests be it trav-
el or gardening or playing a musical in-
strument and what makes you happy
are, of course, important. But unless you
have a plan and the money to pursue
your interests, this bucket list might as
well be a sieve.
For instance, Harris said, you might
need to consider a phased retirement or
delayed retirement. In addition, youll
need a realistic projection of post-retire-
ment income and expenses. Financial
planning is the key to being able to ac-
complish the bucket list, Harris said.

Dear Abby: With so
many families mov-
ing in with relatives
because of personal
struggles in their
lives, I thought it
might be helpful to
offer a few sugges-
tions. If you move in with relatives:
1. Do not assume they wont mind
if you store everything you own in
their garage. Get rid of it or pay for a
storage unit.
2. Help with the housework, even
if they say, Oh, dont bother. And
keep your space clean and orderly.
3. Show you appreciate having a
place to stay. Feed pets, carry out the
trash, rake leaves or shovel snow.
4. Do your own laundry. Ask when
is the most convenient time to do it.
5. If you are paying something
toward your stay, dont think that pre-
cludes your helping in the home.
6. Work out the food arrangements.
Maybe you have a shelf or drawer in
the fridge for your food.
7. If you dont have a job, keep look-
ing. Dont lie around watching TV,
sleeping or playing on the computer.
8. Never gossip about the house-
hold. You owe it to the family who
took you in.
9. Do try to set a departure date.
If things change, discuss it. When in
doubt, talk it out.
To those who are going through
this, I wish you luck and better times
ahead.
Loving Family Member
Dear Family Member: Your letter is
timely because, for various reasons,
millions of Americans now live in
multifamily and intergenerational
households. For some of them, the
arrangement will be temporary. For
others, it is cultural, practical and will
be permanent. Whatever the reasons
for cohabiting, the suggestions you
submitted are thought-provoking and
worth space in my column. Thank
you for raising the subject.
Dear Abby: I was married for nine
years to an outwardly sweet, but de-
ceptive woman who cheated and left
me. We have two children. A custody
battle is waging, and the divorce has
not been finalized due to financial
disputes.
I have found myself with a dilem-
ma. I am not a bad-looking guy, and
women come on to me during social
events. On the occasion that I find
myself attracted and ask a woman
out, I end up telling her the whole
divorce/custody story no matter how
hard I try to avoid it or change the
subject. After the date, I regret the
conversation.
How should these issues be dis-
cussed with a potential lover? I have
avoided commitment because of all
the baby mama drama some of the
women had, but Im now seriously in-
terested in someone and shes recep-
tive to seeing me. Im a free-spirited
person and this problem is weighing
me down. Please advise, Abby.
Stuck in South Carolina
Dear Stuck: Because you are seri-
ously interested, do the honorable
thing and let her know in advance
that a relationship with you may be
complicated because your divorce
isnt final, and the reasons why. If
shes as interested in you as you are in
her, she will respect you for it.
DEAR ABBY

447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Maybe
this is not exactly the life of your
dreams, but when you assess
your experiences with the people
you love, look around at all you
have acquired.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Instead
of struggling with your inner
critical voice (which, by the way,
will be especially loud now), try
to befriend it. Listen to what it
has to say and respond, I see
your point, but I respectfully
disagree.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You can
expand your intellectual hori-
zons by simply avoiding mind-
numbing activities such as losing
yourself in entertainment youve
already seen or in an ocean of
Internet correspondence.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you
feel distant from a person, you
are less likely to care about
whether or not your actions
please that person. Create a
closeness with loved ones that
will make your relationship
impervious to apathy.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You will be
uplifted by the camaraderie of
music. Go where you can listen
to music with others. A song
passes through you like an invis-
ible thread, connecting you to
your fellow music lovers.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Theres
a rivalry going on. Emotions
are high, alliances are clear, and
everyone wants his own side to
win. Acknowledge how important
this is to those around you, even
though you may be ambivalent
about the outcome.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The cor-
rect answer is obvious, though
many people around you will
choose the incorrect response.
Some will cave to the social pres-
sure. Stand strong for what is
right.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The
truth sometimes makes you
cry, and you can move others
to tears by stating the truth
through your various means of
self-expression.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You do what you do because
you want to love and be loved.
Others may not respond in the
manner you would prefer, but
they still feel your intention and
return the feelings.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Through routine activities, you
connect with loved ones in a
meaningful way. There is some-
thing sacred about the way you
give your friendship, and others
will honor it as such.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). In
a group situation, there is a dif-
fusion of responsibility. Because
of the number of people
involved, many wont be inclined
to try as hard.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You
have to be exposed to an idea
repeatedly before it will take
hold and seem like an excel-
lent idea. Thats why repeatedly
seeing people make a healthy
choice will prompt you to do
the same.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (June 23).
Youll have specific tasks to
accomplish this year. List them.
Youll exist in your peak perfor-
mance zone in July, so challenge
yourself. Develop your talent in
October. Capricorn and Aquarius
people adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 5, 2, 17, 30 and 16.

Discovers take on spending
The second-quarter earnings for
Discover Financial Service will give
a snapshot of how consumer
spending is being affected by
higher gas and food prices, and by
concerns about the slowing
economy. The credit card company
has been reporting fewer defaults,
a sign that fewer consumers are in
trouble. So the focus now will be
on whether people are using their
credit cards less because their
budgets are strained, or because
theyre worried.
A better unemployment trend?
Applications for unemployment
benefits have fallen for two weeks
out of three. That has heartened
economists and investors who
were surprised by the
governments report of a surprising-
ly low number of new jobs in May.
When applications fall, its a sign
that layoffs are slowing. Todays
Labor Department report on appli-
cations for benefits last week will
show whether the positive trend is
continuing or if more people are
losing their jobs.
ConAgra earnings
The big food makers fiscal
fourth-quarter results are ex-
pected to show how much its
passing higher prices for ingre-
dients like corn and wheat on to
customers. All food makers
have been contending with
higher costs. And as the econo-
my has improved, theyve had
more freedom to charge more
for their products. ConAgras
third-quarter earnings fell be-
cause of higher costs
although it did raise prices.

Stocks fall slightly
Stocks closed lower Wednesday after
the Federal Reserve brought down its
estimates for U.S. economic growth.
The Fed now expects the economy
to grow between 2.7 percent and 2.9
percent this year. Thats down from its
previous estimate of 3.1 percent to 3.3
percent.
Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke said at
a press conference that some of the
problems plaguing the economy may
be stronger and more persistent than
we thought.
Maybe some of the headwinds that
are concerning us, like weakness in the
financial sector, problems in the hous-
ing sector ... some of these headwinds
may be stronger and more persistent
that we thought, Bernanke said.
Spill rig owner blames BP
The owner of the rig that exploded
in the Gulf of Mexico last year largely
blames oil giant BP for the disaster in
an internal investigation report re-
leased Wednesday that bolsters the
Swiss firms arguments in the face of
lawsuits and expected government
fines.
The report from Transocean Ltd.
said the April 20, 2010, Deepwater
Horizon explosion and resulting oil
spill was sparked by a succession of
well design, construction, and tempo-
rary abandonment decisions that com-
promised the integrity of the well and
compounded the risk of its failure.
Transocean said many of the decisions
were made by well owner BP in the
two weeks before the incident.
BPs own internal report on the di-
saster blamed a cascade of failures by
multiple companies. Government in-
vestigations also have spread around
the blame.
Cooking oil powers planes
Dutch airline KLM plans to use recy-
cled cooking oil as biofuel to power
flights to and from France in a move
aimed at cutting carbon emissions.
Starting in September, KLM will
begin more than 200 flights between
Paris and Amsterdam using biofuel
made from used cooking oil, the com-
pany said Wednesday.
KLM managing director Camiel
Eurlings said in a statement the airline
does not have to make any changes to
its aircraft engines to use the new bio-
fuel. The biofuel flights are intended to
help reduce KLMs carbon emissions
while having a minimum negative
impact on biodiversity and food sup-
ply.

ness banking center in Scranton

IF YOUTHOUGHT
digital cameras were
an amazing leap for-
ward fromfilm, youd
better hold on to your
hat, because a compa-
ny called Lytro has
developed a camera
that it says has the potential to forever
change the photographic scene
Whats different about it? Shoot first,
focus later, is the bold proclamation on
the Lytro website. And after looking at
some of the photographs, I think they
might be onto something.
Amodern digital camera uses a light
sensor to capture images, but the optics
work much the same as those of con-
ventional filmcameras. You still need to
zoom, you still need to focus, and you
still need to adjust the settings.
Lytros camera is different. It utilizes
a light field sensor a sensor that cap-
tures the color, intensity and direction
of each of the light rays that it can see.
Compare this to a conventional digital
camera sensor, which captures all of the
light rays and outputs themas a single
light source. Lytros camera also in-
troduces powerful software algorithms
that replace mirrors, lenses and the like
to produce more rapid capture of imag-
es and better control over the result.
So whats the difference in the pho-
tograph? You take a picture with Lytros
camera, and then you decide where you
want the focus to be. And you can do it
again, and again, and again, producing
multiple images that are focused on
different subjects all fromthe same
photograph. Moreover, most of us know
that fromthe time you press the shutter
button on a camera, it can take one or
more seconds to actually capture the
image. Alight field camera doesnt need
to do any adjusting, so the photo is
captured instantly.
Until now, the theoretical founda-
tions of this technology were available
only in laboratories, where it has been
around for many years. This is one of
those things that needed to be portable
in order to be practical. Goodbye out of
focus or poorly focused pictures. Lytro
is calling its concept Living Pictures,
and fromwhat I can see its pretty amaz-
ing.
Unfortunately, you cant get one just
yet ... soon, but not just yet. You can,
however, request to be notified once the
cameras start rolling off the production
line. Its expected to be launched
around the end of the year and slated to
cost less than $500.

WASHINGTON The House on
Wednesday took up the most far-reaching
overhaul of thepatent systemin60years, a
bill that leaders in both parties said would
make it easier for inventors to get their in-
novations to market and help put people
backtowork.
The legislation, supported by the Oba-
ma administration and a broad range of
business groups andhightechcompanies,
aims toease the lengthy backloginpatent
applications, clean up some of the proce-
dures that can lead to costly litigation and
puttheUnitedStatesunderthesamefiling
system as the rest of the industrialized
world.
The Senate passed a similar bill last
Marchona 95-5vote. If the bill makes it to
the White House for the presidents signa-
ture, it could be one of the first congres-
sional actions this year to have a concrete
effectonbusinessaftermonthsoftheGOP-
ledHousevotingonbillsthatheadstraight
forthepolitical graveyardof theDemocrat-
ic-controlledandslow-movingSenate.
Afinal voteisexpectedlaterintheweek.
The first major overhaul of the patent
system since 1952 has faced resistance. A
plannedvotelastweekwasputoff afterthe
Republican chairmen of the Budget and
Appropriations committees objected to a
critical element that would allowthe U.S.
Patent and Trademark Office to keep all
the user fees it collects.
ThelegislationwouldswitchtheUnited
States from the first-to-invent system
now in effect to the first-inventor-to-file
systemfor patent applications used by all
other industrializedcountries.
Former Judiciary Committee chairmen
Jim Sensenbrenner, R-Wis., and John Co-
nyers, D-Mich., question the constitution-
ality of the change and some colleges and
small-scaleinventorssaythechangewould
favor largecorporationsandstifleacadem-
ic cooperation.
Alexander Poltorak, head of the Ameri-
can Innovators for Patent Reform, repre-
senting independent inventors, university
researchers andsmall companies, saidthe
bill gives bigcorporations anadvantageby
weakening the one-year grace period un-
der which an inventor can develop his
productbeforefilingforapatentandgiving
corporations more post-grant challenging
rights.
Another contested provision in the bill
allows for the review of patents for busi-
ness-method innovations such as check
processing. Critics argue the provision re-
wards large banks by givingthema way to
challenge the validity of such patents, but
supporters say it merely addresses mis-
takeswhenbusiness-methodpatentswere
firstissuedinthelate1990s. Theysaygood
patents that pass re-examinationwill have
evenstronger legal integrity.

he said. We really like the vibe
Mayor (Thomas) Leighton has
created down here.
The award was not the reason
he and architect Joel Zitofsky
came up with the idea to find a
new use for the old building, but
hes honored to have been recog-
nized.
We took a purpose-built funer-
al home brick building with no
insulation in it, and we really
made it super efficient, Evans
said. All-new windows were in-
stalled and insulation was added
between the brick and a newwall
that was installed four inches
from the brick throughout the
building.
In addition, a courtyard for em-
ployees, off-street parking and a
welcoming front porch make the
building stand out for employees
and visitors alike.
Its a first-class facility, Evans
said.
Hes done a spectacular job,
said Todd Vonderheid, the cham-
bers president. It just looks
great. It has a unique style.

the building and the business it
houses becomes part of the citys
future.

WILKES-BARRE Mr. Tonys
is closed, but only for summer
vacation.
Thom Greco, owner of the
building at the corner of North
Main and Union streets, said the
bar/restaurant will remain
closed until Aug. 3, at which time
it will reopen, but the format may
change.
Im not sure if we will reopen
as Mr. Tonys or change the name
and the format, Greco said
Wednesday. We could decide to
change the concept. Well decide
that over the next month.
Greco said the bar will open
once every 10 days to comply
with state liquor laws so he
doesnt forfeit his license. He said
the employees will use the time
to take their vacations. Greco
said he will manage the restau-
rant when it reopens.
On June 10, Greco and former
operator Tony (Mr. Tony) Stella
had a dispute over management
of the bar/restaurant and Stella
left the business. The restaurant
continued operating with the
staff that was already in place, in-
cluding the chef, Peter Adams.
Mr. Tonys opened in late Feb-
ruary. The building housing the
restaurant has played home to a
number of restaurants in the
past, including the Gage Bar and
Restaurant, Martinis Ristorante
& Bar, and most recently before
Mr. Tonys, a pizza buffet.

RALEIGH, N.C. It takes up
enough space to cover a billiards
table, but next year it will fit in-
side a backpack.
Theelectronic contraption, on-
ly in its first generation, was
named this year by experts at
Massachusetts Institute of Tech-
nology as one of the 10 most im-
portant technology innovations
of 2010. MIT ranked the smart
transformer, created by the
FREEDM Systems Center in Ra-
leigh, alongside recent advances
incancer genomics andsynthetic
cells.
The digital transformer will
form the electronic guts of the
vaunted Smart Grid, the auto-
mated power network that is ex-
pected to replace the nations ag-
ing mechanical power grid in the
coming decade. Relying on semi-
conductors rather than brainless
mechanisms, the device controls
energy flow in both directions,
managing interconnections with
solar-powered rooftops and plug-
inelectric cars, while minimizing
energy waste.
Think of it as an Internet rou-
ter for the electrical grid, said
Stephen Cass, special projects
editor at MITs Technology Re-
view. This contribution fits into
that transformational ideal in
that it will enableother changes.
While devices like the smart
transformer work in a laboratory
setting, it may take years before
electricity providers are ready to
buy the costly equipment. One
hurdle for solid state compo-
nents is that they last about 20
years in the field, compared to
the 40-year life span of a conven-
tional transformer. The bucket-
shaped device attached to neigh-
borhoodutility poles is limitedto
one function: It lowers voltage as
electrical current passes through
it.
The old-fashioned transfor-
mer is very dumb, but also very
reliable, said Alex Huang, the
N.C. State professor of electrical
and computer engineering who
directs the FREEDM Center.
Chad Eckhardt, an independ-
ent industry consultant in Ra-
leigh, said the FREEDM center
can build all the prototypes it
wants, but mass production will
require engagement with a glob-
al contractor like ABB, Eaton,
Siemens or General Electric. To
get companies onthat scale inter-
ested, utility companies will first
have to commit to field-testing
the smart components.
Eventually the Smart Grid will
be used to manage thousands of
solar homes and electric cars in
whichpower flows inmultiple di-
rections, Huang said, as opposed
to the current system in which
electricity originates at several
large power plants and moves
one way along transmission lines
and down distribution lines into
neighborhoods.
Advanced power grid slowly takes shape in N.C.

SOURCE: FactSet
The economy and the
stock market have hit a soft
patch the last couple of
months. Expect diners and
investors to head to
McDonalds.
McDonalds is up about
6 percent since the stock
market reached a 2011
high April 29. The S&P 500
has fallen about 6 percent.
The stock has soared 148
percent in the last five
years. The S&P 500 is up
about 3 percent.
Consumers turn to
McDonalds when the
economy is uncertain. But it
has a game plan to help it
keep new customers when
the economy improves. Its
remodeling restaurants and
offering wireless access. It
serves fancy coffee,
smoothies and oatmeal. Its
strategy works: McDonalds
serves 64 million people a
day, up from 60 million two
years ago.
Overseas, McDonalds
is expanding in fast-
growing markets like China.
Revenue in the first quarter
rose 9 percent in Europe
and 18 percent in Asia
Pacific, the Middle East
and Africa, or APMEA. Its
U.S. revenue grew 3 per-
cent.
McDonalds gets about
23 percent of its revenue
from APMEA, up from 14
percent five years ago. The
largest chunk of revenue,
40 percent, comes from
Europe, up from 32 percent
five years ago. The U.S.
accounts for about 32 per-
cent, down from 34 percent
five years ago.
Investors like those
numbers. They also like the
fact that McDonalds raised
its dividend during the
recession while many com-
panies slashed theirs.
Many financial analysts
think the stock has room to
rise. Thirteen of the 19 ana-
lysts surveyed by FactSet
rate McDonalds a buy or
the equivalent.

The electronics part maker said its
fiscal third-quarter earnings doubled
as it helped fill the rising demand for
tech gadgets.
Despite stronger revenue, the furni-
ture maker said its fourth-quarter
profit fell due to rising costs and a
one-time charge.
The used car dealership chain said
its first-quarter profit rose 25 per-
cent as economic uncertainty lifted
sales of secondhand vehicles.
Stocks fell after the Federal Reserve lowered its
estimates for U.S. economic growth. Even with the
dimmer outlook, the central bank pledged no new
help to boost the economy. The Feds $600 billion
bond-buying program draws to a close at the end
of this month. Fed Chairman Ben Bernanke also
said threats to the economy could be more per-
sistent than we thought. The Dow fell 0.7 percent.
The S&P 500 fell 0.7 percent. The Nasdaq fell 0.7
percent.
