PLAINS TWP. The owner of
a Plains Township building is
concernedthat delays ingettinga
federally leased section of the
structure cleaned out has caused
it to become toxic.
Stuart Bell is president of Lu-
zerne Products, and the Bell fam-
ily owns the building. He said the
delay in getting that section of
the 230,300-square-foot building
cleaned out has caused serious
problems. Specifically, Bell said
mold has formed in the space
leased to the General Services
Administration and it will take
millions of dollars to remediate
it. GSAleases130,000 square feet
of the building to store records
for the Social Security Adminis-
tration, Bell said.
Bell said it was GSA and SSA
that causedthe delay, citing secu-
rity concerns.
Workers wearing protective
suits were busy Friday cleaning
out a section of the flood-dam-
aged building.
The water-damaged records
were still in the building, while
other items were being carried
out and sprayed by workers from

in need, you help them. Thats
what Christs life was all
about; helping the downtrod-

WILKES-BARRE A group
of Wyoming County residents
protested in front of the state
Department of Environmental
Protections Northeast Region-
al Office on Public Square Sat-
urday.
The protesters are residents
of the Windy Valley section of
Forkston Township whose
homes were devastated by
flooding of Mehoopany Creek
after tropical storms Irene and
Lee.
They called on the state
agency to remove debris from
the creek to prevent future
flooding.
Protester Tom McGlynn
said large groups of trees and
gravel bars were impeding and
shifting the flow of the creek
prior to the flooding and that
the problem has been made
worse by the recent storms.
The creek hasnt been
dredged since 1972, and some
of the debris still clogging the
creek has been there since
2006, he said.
The group believes DEPs
failure to maintain the creek
contributed to the flooding of
their homes and the washouts
of roads and three bridges in
Forkston Township, and that it
will continue to lead to addi-
tional flooding and road wash-
outs.
The creek needs to be
dredged, McGlynn said. The
important thing is that the
road repairs and the temporary
bridges that they are building
now will simply be destroyed
again.
Liz DeWolfe was among the group protesting Saturday in
front of the DEP office on Public Square in Wilkes-Barre.

PLAINS TOWNSHIP Area
teachers gathered at a legislative
and education leaders breakfast
on Saturday to learn about the
Pennsylvania State Education As-
sociations "Solutions That Work"
education initiative.
The event, held at the East
Mountain Inn, featured a present-
ation by the state teachers union
outlining the newprogramas well
as a meet-and-greet for local legis-
lators Ed Pashinski and Mike Car-
roll.
Teachers want to improve the
state of education in Pennsylva-
nia," said PSEA spokesman Paul
Shemansky. "This new program
helps us to achieve our goal."
According to PSEAs website,
the "Solutions That Work" initia-
tive is a "comprehensive blueprint
to reform education" based on
classroom experience and exten-
sive academic research and in-
cludes tenets on teacher perform-
ance review, parental participa-
tion and local business involve-
ment.
Shemansky stated the recent
cuts in educational funding by
Gov. TomCorbett have resultedin
the loss of more than 5,000 teach-
ers and support staff in the state
and prompted the proposed
changes.
"Class sizes have increased
throughout the state and student-
teacher ratio has also increased,"
added Shemansky. "Class size di-
rectly impacts results."
Shemansky said the state of
public education in Pennsylvania
is evidenced by recent data from
the U.S. Department of Educa-
tion, whichranks the state No. 1in
eighth-grade reading and in the
top 10 in math and science.

The Postal Service has tried to cut

postage rates have increased from 29
cents in 1994 to the current rate of 44

Luzerne County Veteran Affairs Director James
Spagnola has askedcountycommissioners toconsider
increasing the money allocated for veteran grave flag
holders next year because people are still stealing the
holders for their scrap trade-in value.
The county paid $14,160 for 2,360 holders this year.
Veteran deaths are averaging more than 1,000 a year,
Spagnola said.
If the county spends the same next year, Spagnola
will only have about 1,000 replacement holders to dis-
tribute to American Legion and VFW posts through-
out the county, whichwont meet the demand, he said.
The Legion and VFWvisit cemeteries to make sure all
veteran graves have markers.
If we just buy the same amount, Ill have about
1,000 to pass out, and thats not enough given the fact
that were still trying to replace markers that are sto-
len, said Spagnola, who describes the theft from de-
ceased veterans as disgusting.
The county switched frombrass to aluminumhold-

through Noxen, you cant miss the
destruction caused by both Hurri-

Lee. Downed century-old trees,
huge piles of ruined belongings

But the Native American com-

healing and peace to the small
town in the form of the Seventh
Annual Fall Intertribal Powwow
being held at the Noxen Fire De-
partment grounds on Stull Road.
The Fall Powwow is an open
gathering of all Native American
tribes. The Grand Entry was the
official beginning of the powwow
on Saturday. All the dancing took
place in a circle with a fire burning
in the center. The dancing began
with a flag ceremony and a salute

a street dress and a colorful shawl.

2 Americans heading home
T
wo Americans freed from an Ira-
nian prison told reporters Saturday
they were eager to go home just
before boarding their flight to the U.S.
from Oman, the Gulf state that helped
mediate their release after more than
two years in custody on accusations of
spying.
Josh Fattal and Shane Bauer were
scheduled to arrive home on Sunday,
according to Samantha Topping, a
spokeswoman for their families. The
two were released from Tehrans Evin
prison under a $1 million bail deal and
arrived in Oman on Wednesday in the
first leg of their journey home. There
they were reunited with joyful rela-
tives.
Irans Foreign Ministry called their
release a gesture of Islamic mercy.
SAN FRANCISCO
Infused alcohol ban lifted
In this city famous for food and drink
experimentation, so-called craft bar-
tenders have fought for three years to
overturn a Prohibition-era state law
that banned bars from infusing flavors
into alcohol.
Bartenders, worry no longer.
On Wednesday, Gov. Jerry Brown
signed a law repealing the ban on im-
buing alcohol in bars and restaurants
with fresh flavors.
The antiquated law was forgotten
until 2008, when the state Department
of Alcohol Beverage Control after
noticing an increasing number of Bay
Area bars infusing booze with their
own flavors issued an advisory tell-
ing its licensees that rectification of
distilled spirits at their businesses was
illegal.
While no bars or restaurants ever
received fines or were cited under the
law, owners in San Francisco said the
fear of fines or revoked liquor licenses
stifled creativity and a burgeoning new
business.
SANAA, YEMEN
Troops kill 40 in battles
In one of the bloodiest days of Ye-
mens uprising, government troops
backed by snipers and shelling attacked
a square full of Yemeni protesters Sat-
urday and battled with pro-opposition
forces in the capital, killing at least 40
people and littering the streets with
bodies.
The violence signaled an accelerated
attempt by President Ali Abdullah
Saleh and his loyalists to crush their
rivals and tighten his grip on the coun-
try after his return a day earlier from
Saudi Arabia, where he has been under-
going treatment for the past three
months for wounds suffered in an as-
sassination attempt.
One of Salehs top rivals Maj. Gen.
Ali Mohsen al-Ahmar called for
international help, asking the U.S. and
other regional powers to rein him in.
He warned that Saleh is pushing the
country into civil war.
PERUGIA, ITALY
Prosecutors: Life for Knox
Italian prosecutors asked an appeals
court on Saturday to uphold the con-
viction of Amanda Knox for the murder
of her British roommate and increase
her sentence to life in prison.
The 24-year-old American sat mo-
tionless as Prosecutor Giancarlo Cos-
tagliola made his request. The prosecu-
tor sought the same sentence for
Knoxs co-defendant, former boyfriend
Raffaele Sollecito, capping two days of
closing arguments by the prosecutors.
Costagliola also requested six
months of daytime solitary confine-
ment for Knox and two months for
Sollecito. Verdict is expected in Octo-
ber.

WASHINGTON Just a week away
from a possible government shutdown,
lawmakers boxedthemselves intoanew
budget impasse Friday.
With Congress approval ratings al-
ready at an all-time low, a tit-for-tat over
disaster aid left Republicans and Demo-
crats and the House and Senate in
afaceoff thatsall toofamiliar tomillions
of Americans. Deep partisan disputes
pushed the government to the edge of a
partial shutdown in April, and to the
brink of a debt ceiling crisis in late July.
OnFriday, the Democratic-controlled
Senate blocked a Republican House bill
that would provide
stopgapfederal spend-
ing, plus aidfor people
battered by hurri-
canes, tornadoes and
other natural disas-
ters. The legislation
also calls for $1.6 bil-
lion in spending cuts
to help defray the disaster costs.
Democrats say its unprecedented
and unfair to require spending cuts to
accompany badly needed emergency
aid. They are especially unhappy that
the GOPmeasure would tap clean-ener-
gy programs credited with creating
jobs.
Republicans say that with a $14 tril-
lion-plus national debt, business-as-usu-
al spending is no longer acceptable.
Withelections coming, congressional
Republicans suggest voters will find it
outrageous that Democrats wouldnt ac-
cept amere$1.6billioninspendingcuts.
Democrats are betting voters will find it
petty and manipulative to let tornado
and hurricane victims wonder if federal
aid will be denied because lawmakers
want to cut aid to automakers.
The parties feuding earlier this year
prompteda ratingagencytodowngrade
the governments credit-worthiness,
which sent shock waves through finan-
cial markets. Legislation finally did
make it topassage toraise the debt limit
and stave off potential default.
This time, its possible that Congress
will find a last-minute way to avoid a
shutdown of many federal agencies
when the fiscal year ends next Friday.
The Senate plans to vote Monday on a
Democratic bill that would not require
spending offsets to release new money
for the Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency. FEMA, drainedbyseveral
severe storms, could run out by next
week, officials said.
In the Senate, however, GOP leader
Mitch McConnell of Kentucky is confi-
dent Republicans will block the Demo-
crats counter-move with a filibuster. It
takes 41 votes to sustain a filibuster in
the100-member Senate, andthe Repub-
licans hold 47 seats.

WASHINGTONIts as bigas
a bus and weighs 6 tons, but offi-
cials probably will never be able
to pinpoint exactly where a mas-
sive NASA satellite plummeted
to Earth.
NASAspace junk scientists be-
lieve that all or nearly all of
theparts of their 20-year-olddead
satellite safely
plunged into
the Pacific
Ocean, likely
missing land.
But if their esti-
mates are off, by
only five min-
utes or so, fiery
pieces could
have fallen on
parts of north-
western North
America.
No injuries or
damage have
beenreportedonland, whichNA-
SA officials said was a good indi-
cation the satellite went into the
ocean.
That doesnt necessarily mean
it all fell intothe sea. Some debris
could have fallen over areas such
as Portland, Ore.; Seattle; Cal-
gary, Alberta; and Saskatoon,
Saskatchewan, said Jonathan
McDowell of the Harvard-Smith-
sonian Center for Astrophysics.
Pieces are falling off of this
flaming fire ball, and some of it
has enough momentum to go
hundreds of miles, he said.
There were no credible reports
of debris onthe ground, saidNick
Johnson, NASAs chief scientist
for orbital debris.
Just where
satellite hit
is unknown
It all likely fell into Pacific, but
some debris might have landed
in northwestern North America.

SIRTE, Libya With NATO
jets roaring overhead, revolu-

into Moammar Gadhafis
hometown Saturday in the first
significant push into the stub-
born stronghold in about a
week.
Libyas newleaders alsotried
to move on the political front,
promising to announce in the
coming week a new interim
government that it hopes will
help unite the country.
However, disagreements re-
main about what the Cabinet
should look like.
The National Transitional
Council led the rebellion that
forced Gadhafi into hiding and
has takenover the leadershipof
the oil-rich North African na-
tion even as it continues to
fight forces still loyal to the fu-
gitive leader.
The NTC-appointed prime
minister, Mahmoud Jibril,
sought support from leaders at
the United Nations on Satur-
day,
He told them them that a
newLibya is comingtolife as a
nation committed to democra-
cy, equality and reintegration
into the international commu-
nity. He said the council was
committed to drafting a consti-
tution that would be put to the
Libyans for a referendum.

Last weeks announcement
that 252 of the nations 487 mail
processing facilities including
the one on Davis Street in Scran-
ton and another one in William-
sport -- will be reviewed over the
next three months for potential
consolidation is proof that the
scalpel is still in the Postmaster
Generals hand.
A correlating announcement
that the Postal Service is also
seeking to reduce current first-
class mail delivery standards
couldmakeit aone-twopunchfor
local customers.
Daiutolosaidnodecisionshave
been made to close the Scranton
center or to change delivery stan-
dards. He said both are just pro-
posals and both were brought on
by ongoing financial troubles and
a decrease in mail volume.
Themarket placehas changed
andweneedtobuildasustainable
business model for the future.
The announcement last week re-
garding the consolidation pro-
posals is designed to help build a
more prosperous future for
USPS, Daiutolo said.
At the Scranton processing
center in fiscal year 2010, more
than 869 million pieces of mail
were handled. Withone monthto
go in this fiscal year, that center
has only handled 560 million
pieces of mail. Averaging about
1.5 million pieces per day, that to-
tal will likely only growby 45 mil-
lion pieces, meaning the year-to-
year declinewill beabout 264mil-
lion pieces of mail at the center.
We readily acknowledge that
mail volumewill not return, said
Daiutolo.
He said the Postal Service is
forcedto face a newreality. With
the dramatic decline in first-class
mail volume andthe resulting ex-
cess capacity, maintaining a vast
infrastructure is no longer realis-
tic. Mail volume has declined by
more than 43 billion pieces (na-
tionally) in the last five years and
continues to decline. First-class
mail has dropped 25 percent and
single piece first-class mail -- let-
ters withpostagestamps -- has de-
clined 36 percent in the same
timeframe, and about 50 percent
in the past 10 years.
Inadditiontotheconsolidation
proposal, the Postal Service said
it plans toreducecurrent delivery
standards for first-class mail.
Such mail is now supposed to be
delivered in one-to-three days de-
pending on how far it has to go.
That will be changed to two-to-
three days, meaning mailers
could no longer expect next-day
deliveryintheirlocal community.
Officials said that could have
someimpact oncommercial mail-
ers but individual customers are
not likely to notice the change.
Theypromisedtoworkwithbusi-
nesses tohelpsolveanyproblems
the change might cause.
Theheadof alocal postal union
says the U.S. Postal Services an-
nouncement last weekthat it may
close the processinganddistribu-
tionfacilityinScrantonandmove
operations to the Lehigh Valley
would make an already strug-
gling Postal Service even less
popular.
John Kishel, president of Local
175of the Wilkes-Barre American
Postal Workers Union, saidhe un-
derstands the argument but be-
lieves the consolidations and re-
duction in service times are not
the way to go.
The Postal Service, what
theyreproposingis tolower their
standards, Kishel said. When
they perform these consolida-
tions, theyre supposed to save
money and improve service. He
said he has yet to see evidence
that by closing the Wilkes-Barre
center, either of those aims were
accomplished.
Daiutolo said the report show-
inghowthe closingof the Wilkes-
Barre processing center impact-
ed the Postal Service showed the
savings were in excess of the $5
million to $6 million per year the
original projections showed.
That report was not made public,
he said, but added that postal
unions receiveda copy of it. Kish-
el said he has never seen it.
He said regardless of what that
report shows, the bottomline for
him is that the Postal Service is
not doing what it was established
to.
Theywerecreatedtoservethe
American people. What theyve
done is a disservice to the Amer-
ican people, Kishel said. He said
patrons whorelyongettingmedi-
cations or checks onspecific days
may see delays.
The announcement comes on
the heels of the postal services
plans to review about 3,700 post
offices for closure including a
handful in Luzerne County.
The closings and service
changes couldsavethepost office
asmuchas$3billionannuallyand
are part of an effort to reduce an-
nual costs by $6.5 billion. The As-
sociated Press has reported that
other savings are being sought
through requests that Congress
allow the post office to eliminate
mail delivery on Saturdays and
change or eliminate an annual
$5.5 billion payment the post of-
fice is required to make into a
fund to cover future retiree med-
ical benefits. Last year the Postal
Servicehadrevenueof $67billion
and expenses of $75 billion.

ers in 2008 thinking it would deter theft.
Then people started stealing the alumi-
num ones, he said, speculating that most
thieves are seeking cash for illegal drugs.
The holders have different designs for
each war and also one honoring veterans
who served during periods of peace, Spag-
nola said.
The county is requiredby state lawto pur-
chase American flags for the holders, and
the flags cost about $34,000 this year. Often,
the flags are discardedonthe cemeterylawn
when holders are stolen.
County commissioners said they will re-
view the request.
It means a lot to veterans, Spagnola
said.
The county has no extra holders at the
moment because a small inventory was kept
in two Wilkes-Barre locations that were re-
centlyfloodedthebasement of theVeteran
Affairs building on Water Street and a coun-
ty warehouse on nearby Tannery Street.
Spagnola said he will try to clean and pol-
ish these holders as replacements for ones
that were stolen, but hes hesitant to present
them to the family of a newly deceased vet-
eran unless they are pristine. The county
will seek federal disaster funding to replace
the holders if they cant be saved, he said.

handmade regalia when it was
destroyed in the recent flood-
ing of the Susquehanna River.
We lost everything, she
said simply.
But in spite of her loss, she
still felt happy at the Native
American gathering. The
powwow is a place I can come
to relax. I can go on with my
life. Through the bad stuff, my
native family is here for me.
Joseph Spirit Wolf, 49, of
Tunkhannock, was the head
male dancer. His impressive
regalia included a buffalo bon-
net complete with horns. He
was joined in one of the first
dances by his 4-year-old grand-
son Zander, the smallest par-
ticipant by far. Spirit Wolf
turned frequently to make sure
his small shadow was follow-
ing safely behind.
Kelly Ormando of Edwards-
ville brought her children, Ca-
tal, 6, and Breala, 2. Both Ca-
tal and Breala visited the face
paint artists booth and had
brightly colored faces.
Theyve never been to one,
Ormando said. I want them to
have fun and to experience a
different culture.
Ricky Wentzel, 26, of Dallas,
was hands-down the most joy-
ful dancer in the circle. He
couldnt stop grinning and
made eye contact with many in
the crowd. When asked what
he liked best about the pow-
wow he said, I like the Crow
Hop dance.
The most unique regalia be-
longed to Giovanni Sanchez,
18, of Kingston. A solo dancer,
he is part Lakota and part Nah-
uatl, an Aztec tribe from Mex-
ico. He wore brightly colored
green and orange feathers, jin-
gle bells and a beaded spider
web mask over his eyes. Our
ancestors died making sure
that these ways are carried
on, he said. I see dancing as
a responsibility I have to my
people and my creator. When
we follow that responsibility,
we get gifted. We are happy.
Event organizer Nathalie
Bowersox, also known as Wis-
teria, reminded event-goers to
be sure and ask questions of
the dancers. She said that one
of the purposes of the event
was to educate the public.
Bowersox is from Mocanaqua,
another area heavily hit by
flood waters. She also hoped
that the powwow could raise
some funds to help those af-
fected by the flood.
The drumbeats and singing
were provided by a newly
formed group called the Wyo-
na Singers, led by Dave White
Elk Elmore of Shickshinny.
The young singers belong to
the Order of the Arrow, a na-
tional honor society within the
Boy Scouts of America organi-
zation.
Beyond the activities in the
circle, visitors to the free event
could also shop. Native Amer-
ican vendors offered a variety
of goods. Joyce Sitko owns Na-
tures Jewelry and Gift Pouch
in Albrightsville. She had a
display of handmade, one-of-a
kind jewelry made from natu-
ral materials like colored
stones, bone and horn.
The Noxen Fire Department
provided a variety of foods in-
cluding a chicken barbecue.
Native American food was pre-
pared by Carolyn Posten of
Mehoopany who has been
making fry bread at the Noxen
powwow for the past five
years.
The powwow continues to-
day from10 a.m. to 6 p.m. with
the grand entry at about noon.

the flood and the community she
saw pull together around her in
disasters wake. So when flood-
ing struck again this year, and
Wilkes canceled its homecoming
parade in favor of a community
service project, she decided to
join in.
Holloway, now of Chatham,
N.J., dressed in Colonel Blue and
Gold, was one of about 25 volun-
teers packing boxes of food at the
Commission on Economic Op-
portunitys Weinberg Regional
Food Bank in Wilkes-Barre Fri-
day.
I hope that it makes a differ-
ence in peoples lives, she said,
because I remember the stories
after the 72 flood and what peo-
ple went through.
The volunteer effort was orga-
nizedbyagroupof Wilkes alumni
and the Wilkes Office of Commu-
nity Service in lieu of a home-
coming parade. Besides packing
lunches for the elderly at CEO,
which has acted as a distributor
of donated food for flood victims,
Wilkes alumni, students and fac-
ulty also helped clean at the West
Pittston home of Mary and John
Dunnigan.
We were down here and we
felt it was better than sitting and
watching football eating hot
dogs, 1981 graduate Doug Phil-
lips, of Connecticut, said as he
stripped drywall fromthe Dunni-
gan home. My older brother
helped clean up after the 72
flood, so now I can say I helped
clean up in Wilkes-Barre, too.
Floodwaters rose to8 feet high
inside the Dunnigans single-sto-
ry home on Atlantic Avenue.
Im really overwhelmed, Ma-
ry Dunnigan said. I cant believe
theres so many people here to
help I cant even express my
gratitude for all this. Youdont re-
alize you have so many wonder-
ful neighbors and people who are
able to come and help you like
this.
Josh Leiber of Ashley, a 2004
graduate, said he learned the val-
ue of serving his community
while at Wilkes, so he was happy
to be able to give back.
When I first went there the
first thing youdidoncampus was
community service, he said. So
I think its important as you get
older to keep that spirit alive.
This is actually the first of the
homecomings Ive been to, so it
got me out, he added.
Andy Miller, a professor of po-
litical science at Wilkes, said he
anda smaller groupof Wilkes stu-
dents andteachers have beenvol-
unteering at the home through-
out the week, andhe plans tocon-
tinue lending a hand when he
can.
Id like to stay until theyre
done, he said. Id like to see us
help themback in, to go that far.

to aid flood victims in Wyom-

We did it last week, were
doing it this week, and if the
need is here, well do it next
week, Kohlert said. Were
doing it until the people say
we dont need your help any-
more.
On Sat-
urday, the

unteers
scooped buck-
ets of mud
from the

This is our

Kit Adler, who
moved from
West Pittston

last year, said
as he passed
buckets of
mud up the
basement stairs. Im just
thankful to help out a fellow
church. Our home didnt get
hit; we were lucky; but seeing
this, it makes you thankful for
what you have.
If something would happen
to us, we would want someone
to help us, Joanne Kohlert of
Mountain Top said as she
stripped wainscoting from the
first-floor walls. Do unto oth-
ers, you know. Besides, I cant
sit idly by and watch people
work; I need to be working.
Weve been doing this for two
weeks and its amazing how
much work there still is.
Pastor Jim Thyren of First
Presbyterian Church said the
continued help the Mormons,
other churches from around
the Wyoming Valley and his
own congregation have con-
tributed is very much appre-
ciated.
We have 54 people from our
congregation that were affect-
ed by the flood, so theyre
helping their own families in
their own homes, so to have
these people come and help us
is great, Thyren said.

SCRANTON A former Lu-
zerne County Veterans Affairs di-
rector has filed suit, claiming his
constitutional rights were violat-
ed when he was fired in 2009 be-
cause of his age and political affil-
iation.
Richard Wren, 52, of Wilkes-
Barre is asking to be reinstated
to his position and awarded dam-
ages in excess of $75,000.
He names the county and
Commissioners Maryanne Petril-
la and Steve Urban as defendants
in the suit filed Friday in U.S. Dis-
trict Court, Scranton.
Neither Wren nor Petrilla
could be reached for comment
Saturday.
Urban said he had not seen the
suit and declined to comment.
Wren, a U.S. Army veteran,
was terminated on Sept. 24, 2009
in a public vote by the commis-
sioners. He allegedly instructed
an employee to falsify a $70 re-
ceipt.
There is no reference to the al-
legation in the suit.
Instead, Wren claims he was
fired as part of a campaign by Ur-
ban and Petrilla to get rid of sup-
porters of former Democratic
Commissioner Greg Skrepenak.
Urban labeled Wren Skrepe-
naks boy or words to that ef-
fect, the suit says.
Wren acknowledges that he
campaigned in an open and no-
torious fashion for Skrepenaks
candidacy for commissioner.
Skrepenak, who is halfway
through his two-year federal pris-
on sentence for his guilty plea to
corrupt receipt of a reward for an
official action, opposed Wrens
firing.
A month after the firing, the
commissioners unanimously
promoted James Spagnola, the
countys veteran benefits special-
ist, to the directors post. The
U.S. Navy veteran was 45 at the
time.
Wren notes the age difference
in the suit and says Urban and Pe-
trilla treated himless favorably
than employees younger than
him.
In filing the suit, Wren says he
has no adequate remedy to re-
dress the wrongs and asks for a
jury trial. He also asks the court
to issue a permanent injunction
against the county and the two
commissioners, forbidding them
from taking adverse employ-
ment actions onaccount of politi-
cal affiliations and from retaliat-
ing against himfor filing the suit.
Former VA director sues county, commissioners
Richard Wren claims he was
fired because of his age and
political affiliation.

HARRISBURG Brinksman-
ship over governmental borrow-
ing that dominated the debate in
Washington for a time last sum-
mer could be on the horizon for
Pennsylvanias state govern-
ment, with payments for untold
millions in public projects hang-
ing in the balance.
The state Senate on June 6
unanimously approved the two-
page Capital Budget Act, a piece
of the state budget puzzle that
traditionally passes quietly ev-
ery year, along with other bills
that make up the global budget
deal.
But this time that did not hap-
pen, leaving the $1.7 billion in
borrowing authorization to lan-
guish all summer in the House
Appropriations Committee.
Majority Leader Mike Turzai,
R-Allegheny, said Friday that he
is determined to get what he de-
scribes as an inventory and
reassessment of the projects
the money would fund. He also
wants to know what legal obliga-
tions the state has to continue
with the ongoing projects.
What is the state already on
the hook for,
and how is the
state on the
hook for it?
Turzai asked.
We need to
know it, and
wheres the
money being
spent? And its not a criticism of
any particular project. We need
to know what are the outstand-
ing obligations, and for what is
the money going to be used?
And is it appropriate?
The Capital Budget Act would
allocate $270 million in redevel-
opment efforts, money that the
governor has considerable dis-
cretion over through the Rede-
velopment Capital Assistance
Program, known in Harrisburg
as RCAP. Lawmakers advance a
long list of projects far more
than could be paid for and
the governor determines which
should move forward, and when.
I think its too open-ended,
said Turzai, who believes that
borrowing grew too rapidly un-
der Democratic Gov. Ed Ren-
dell, who left office in January.
Im not sure we should be using
that type of money for private-
sector projects. If so, what are
the parameters of that type of
borrowing? There dont seem to
be any. I think we have to start
with some building-block ques-
tions, and make some policy de-
cisions and not just accept the
assumptions that have been part
of the Rendell legacy.
The money also would autho-
rize borrowing $935 million for
buildings and structures, $412
million for transportation and
bridges, $10 million for furnish-
ings and equipment for new con-
struction and $35 million for
flood control. The state consti-
tution requires the General As-
sembly to adopt a capital budget
for the ensuing fiscal year.
Turzai was a vocal opponent
of the level of state borrowing
under Rendell, even decorating
his state Capitol office door with
a sign pleading with the gover-
nor to stop the growth in state
borrowing. Many of the more
conservative members of his
caucus his core supporters as
he rose to floor leader hold
similar positions.
The borrowing, however, ben-
efits many legislative districts,
so it is often supported by law-
makers of all political stripes.
Theres also a lot of people
on the other side of the aisle
that have these projects and
want these projects and want to
continue the ones that are ongo-
ing, said Rep. Joe Markosek of
Allegheny County, the ranking
Democrat on the Appropriations
Committee. Id suggest that dy-
namic is more problematic for
the other side of the aisle.

of questions posedby The Times
Leader to the SSA public affairs
office. Dorothy Clark, SSA spo-
keswoman, said the responses to
the newspapers questions will
be provided sometime next
week.
Gilliam provided a brief state-
ment:
On Sept. 8, 2011, a building
located at 180 Courtright Street
in Wilkes-Barre was damaged by
flooding of the Susquehanna
River. A portion of the building
is leased to the General Services
Administration (GSA) to house
records for the Social Security
Administration (SSA). A signif-
icant number of records were
damaged in the flood. Appropri-
ate safeguards have been imple-
mented to secure the records,
and file cleanup is underway.
Bell said there were 280,000
boxes of SSA records kept in the
buildingenoughthat if laidend
to end would stretch to Allen-
town. He said 80,000 boxes of re-
cords sustained water damage.
The river crested on Sept. 8
into Sept. 9, Bell said. SSAand
GSA were here on Sept. 12 and
we were told we couldnt go into
the building without security
guards that were to be sent from
the two government agencies.
Bell said the security guards
arrived on Sept. 15. Bell had
hired First General Services to
cleanupthe other sections of the
building. He said that cleanup
has gone well.
You wont find a speck of
mold in that section of the build-
ing, Bell said. But over here, on
the SSA side, mold is prevalent
everywhere.
Bell said there are extensive
rules and regulations to reme-
diate mold and the process is ex-
tremely costly.
Basically, SSA will get the
stuff out and then give me the
keys to a toxic building, Bell
said.
Bell said he has expressed his
concerns toU.S. Rep. LouBarlet-
ta, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey and state
Sen. JohnYudichak. Bell saidthe
estimated cost to remediate the
mold and remove and handle the
files will approach $10 million.
Who pays for that? he asked.
Its my responsibility as the
landlordto suck out all of the wa-
ter and remove the mud. But I
wasnt allowed to go in there to
remove the water and mud and
now there is mold everywhere.
Those records could have
been saved had SSAacted quick-
ly, Bell said. Its my under-
standing that SSA has not made
a decision on what to do with the
records, but they all could be de-
stroyed.
Shawn Kelly, Barlettas com-
munications director, said Bar-
letta met with the Bell family on
Sept. 16 to discuss their con-
cerns.
Members of Rep. Barlettas
staff have met with and spoken
with Mr. Bell numerous times
since the flood and theyre work-
ing with the GSAto expedite the
process, Kelly said. Rep. Bar-
letta is very frustrated by the
burdensome regulations placed
on this company by the GSAand
hes pushing for a quick resolu-
tion.
Joe Kluger, Bells attorney,
said the entire Luzerne Prod-
ucts building could be affected.
We respect the need for the
government to follow proper
protocol, as well as to assure
proper use of taxpayer dollars,
Kluger said. But the extended
delay in addressing the situation
has potentially caused not only
problems in the SSA-leased
space, but potentially the entire
building to the detriment of the
landowner, as well as the other
tenants.
Bell said his building received
about 4 more feet of water in the
recent flooding compared to
1972. He said the raising of the
levees in Wilkes-Barre and King-
ston caused more water to back
up into the unprotected, low-ly-
ing areas like Plainsville. Bell
said he wrote letters to the U.S.
Army Corps of Engineers when
the levee-raisingproject was first
proposed, expressing his con-
cerns that the higher levees
could cause more flooding in the
unprotected regions.
I told the Army Corps that
their project would decrease my
property value, Bell said.
Flood insurance will cover
Bells cleanup, but not the addi-
tional damage and mold reme-
diation.
And thats due to the inaction
of GSA and SSA, Bell said.
They waited until today Sept.
23 to start doing something.
Bell said SSA had three em-
ployees on site, and the subcon-
tractor hired by SSA to manage
the records employed 25 people
all of which are currently out of
work.
Bell met with an industrial hy-
gienist from Quad Three Group
on Friday to assess the building.
The Quad Three hygienist went
through the building and told
Bell since the building was dark
and damp for an extended peri-
od of time, the conditions were a
perfect recipe for mold growth.
Bell saidhe wrote government
officials in an email that he
doesnt understand why it took
the federal government more
than one hour to have security
at the site.
What if the burglar alarmhad
gone off and the facility was be-
ing robbed? Bell asked. From
day one, all of the experts have
expressed the need for urgency
ingettingintothe facility tostart
the cleanup before mold started
to growand the environment be-
comes toxic.
Bell said recent cool weather
helped keep the situation from
getting much worse.
Otherwise you would own
the Valleys largest petri dish
which still can happen, Bell
said an industrial hygienist told
him.
Bell said he expressed his con-
cerns in an email to GSA/SSA
representatives on Thursday.
Clearly the non-actions of
GSA/SSA have made this natu-
ral disaster/tragedy far worse
and I am concerned that irrepa-
rable damage has been caused to
my building, Bell said. I sus-
pect that it will become known
as a toxic buildinginthe commu-
nity. This issue will not go away.
Please let the experts, and the
federal and state regulations dic-
tate what must be done rather
than administrators who are
afraid of having to justify the fact
that what was once a $3 to $4
million job to save the vast ma-
jority of the files has become a
$10 millionandgrowing total de-
struction of the files and reme-
diation of the building.
I personally would not want
to have to defend the actions of
GSA and SSA in a court of law.
BUILDING
Workers wearing protective suits were busy Friday cleaning out a section of the flood-damaged Luzerne Products building in Plains
Township that was leased to the General Services Administration and used to store records for the Social Security Administration.
PLAINS TWP. Piles of Astroturf
await removal outside the Luzerne
Products Building, remnants of recent

Stuart Bell, 49, president of Luzerne

said the 230,000-square-foot building
sustained extensive water damage and
he is working to get it cleaned up and
reoccupied by his tenants.
Bell said his father, James E. Bell,
started construction of the building
initially 100,000 square feet -- in 1967.
The elevation of the main floor of the
building was brought up to 1 to 2 feet
above the top of the levee in Forty Fort
at that time. Textile production started
in 1968.
In the early 1970s, prior to Tropical
Storm Agnes, the building size more
than doubled with a 130,000-square-foot
addition. Luzerne Products remained in
the textile business until the late 1980s,
Bell said. The company got out of the
textile business by selling a portion of
its manufacturing equipment to Warp
Processing, which then leased space
from Luzerne Products and operated in
the building until the late 1990s.
In 1984, Bell said the Social Security
Administration moved into 60,000
square feet of space within the building
that had been renovated to support re-
cord storage. Over the years, SSA in-
creased the size of its operation in the
building. Its last expansion occurred in
1996 and brought its total current
square footage up to 131,500 square
feet.
SSA uses a subcontractor to manage
the files and it employed 25 people, Bell
said. Of the remaining 100,000 square
feet of the building, 50,000 square feet is
occupied by Ideal Sleeve International,
a shrink wrap printing and processing
company with 30 employees. Ideal
Sleeve is owned by RB Dwyer, located
in California, and was started in 2007 to
provide the company a presence on the
East Coast.
Plainsville Sports, a wholly owned
subsidiary of Luzerne Products, Inc., is
a multi-sports training facility which oc-
cupies 30,000 square feet of space in the
building and currently has a baseball
field located outside. Effective Nov. 1,
the management of the baseball train-
ing facility was going to be taken over
by several retired major league baseball
players.
Additionally, we were in the final
stages of planning to build a 112,000-
square-foot multipurpose synthetic turf
field outside, Bell said. Once the field
was completed, Plainsville Sports was
going to host baseball/softball, field
hockey and soccer tournaments on
weekends, and make the field available
for local youth sports during weekdays.
Plainsville Sports currently has eight
employees and has contracted with up
to 20 coaches and trainers who have
worked as independent contractors.
The remaining space in the building
houses the corporate office of Luzerne
Products, Inc. currently employing six
individuals.
Bell said the private sector side of the
building is almost completely clean due
to the efforts of First General Services
and all of the employees who work for
Ideal Sleeve, Luzerne Products and
Plainsville Sports.
It is estimated that the cost of cleanup
is around $10 per square foot, Bell said.
This does not include the cost to re-
build everything in the building or re-
place all of the assets that were dam-
aged by the flood waters, Bell said.
The Astroturf alone in Plainsville
Sports is estimated to cost $200,000 to
$250,000 to replace.

O
nce again a faraway researcher is
looking for information about an
American connection.
Frances, in Portpatrick, Scotland,
U.K., is tracing some American rela-
tives here in Wyoming Valley. Lets see
if we can help.
One of the focuses of her research is
Blodwen Walsh, wife of Daniel Walsh,
who died in Wilkes-Barre in 1978 (Da-
niel having died in 1958). What was
Blodwens maiden name? Frances
writes. If I had this, it would make my
research so much easier.
Frances, I first verified your under-
standing that Daniel and Blodwen lived
at several addresses in the Heights
section of Wilkes-Barre. But then I
went back before that time, in the
Wilkes-Barre City Directory at the
Luzerne County Historical Society, and
found that their earliest address as a
married couple was on Joseph Lane,
also in the Heights.
Acting on my understanding that
many young married couples years ago
moved in with parents, I traced the
Joseph Lane address back about 10
years and found it was occupied by
Mary Jones, widow of James, and two
children: Thomas and Blodwen. There-
fore, it looks very much like Blodwens
maiden name was Jones, and she and
her husband, Daniel, set up house-
keeping in her familys home.
Of course, you should check the U.S.
Census for 1920 to verify these family
connections. Remarriages and adop-
tions were common among coal-mining
families. But at least you have a prob-
able last name to work with. Daniels
naturalization papers and the marriage
records would be available at the Lu-
zerne County Courthouse.
Because you have approximate death
dates for the couple, Id recommend
you contact the Historical Society at
www.luzernehistory.org and inquire
about research services so that you can
get their obituaries, which could an-
swer more of your questions, such as
place of birth and years of immigration

ob Sax is a technical representative for Golden Business Machines. He is also a professional DJ and an elected com-
missioner in Plains Township. Sax, 44, is a graduate of Wyoming Valley West High School and served in the United
States Navy, where he worked as a radioman. He and his wife, Sherry, have two children: Amanda, 17, and Saman-
tha, 10. They live in Plains Township.
Youve worked in the copy industry
and at the same business since
1993. What do you enjoy about it?
Were a tight-knit company. Its
family-oriented. You dont see a lot
of people leaving. Thats what I like:
the camaraderie. We all help each
other.
Many people in Northeastern Penn-
sylvania know you as a DJ.
Youve played music at many
nightclubs and at hundreds of
weddings. Howd you first get
interested in spinning records?
The Valley West radio club. Mr.
(Leslie) Nicholas started the first
radio club at Valley West, and I
was in it. Later, I saved up my
money when I was in the Navy,
bought my first setup, and Ive been
doing it for 25 years.
Most people who like music simply
listen to it at home or in the car,
but you get to play it for hundreds of
people. That must be fun. When
someone comes up to you and says,
Thank you for helping make my daugh-
ters special day memorable, that means
a lot. It really means a lot. But this is my
grand finale year. Ive been doing it 25
years, and its just time to turn the page.
Ive got three more weddings, and then
its time to move on.
Youve said that juggling three jobs
weighed into that decision. How did you
also get so involved with community
projects and, eventually, politics?
Right when I got out of the Navy, I joined
the Lions Club, which kind of reminded
me of the Navy experience, because of
the camaraderie. I then I got involved in
zoning and was on the Plains Township
zoning board for 10 years, and then
stepped up to chairing. I then ran for
commissioner and lost the first time.
Thats a learning experience, though, not
moving up the ladder that you want to.
But I like helping people. I like making
people happy and satisfying people.
Now you are a commissioner. The recent
flooding in your township must not
have been something you were expect-
ing when you took office. This has been
a big-time learning experience. Dealing
with peoples tragedies, with their houses
and businesses ... youve got to be there
for them. Youve got to try and help out
in any way you can.
What do you do to relax? Family time.
Being home. Working in the yard.
Music? Sting. Hes my all-time favorite. I
definitely dont listen to the music that I
play when I DJ. After an appearance, Ill
most likely put on ESPN Radio. I like Pink
Floyd, Journey ... stuff that I dont nor-
mally play at somebodys wedding.
Youre also a huge sports fan, correct?
Die-hard baseball and football fan. Phil-
lies and Redskins.
Hobbies? I collect sports memorabilia.
Football and baseball Bobbleheads, au-
tographs ... anything with the Phillies. I
also collect some Navy memorabilia.
Favorite city? Philadelphia.

Mary Louise Carroll was not afraid of a
challenge. For more than 40 years, she
worked as a draftsman a very unconven-
tional career for a woman to take up in the
1940s and excelled at her chosen work.
Whenshe retiredin1986, she tookupa new
hobby, quilting, and applied all her art and
drafting skills to creating three master-
piece quilts.
Two of those quilts were based on the Bi-
ble, with one portraying key events from
the Old Testament and one depicting
events from the New Testament. Both
quilts will be ondisplay inTunkhannock on
Saturday as part of the 10th annual Airing
of the Quilts, sponsored by Endless Moun-
tain Quiltworks.
Endless Mountain Quiltworks owner Jeanette Kitlin borrowed the
idea for Airing of the Quilts fromsimilar events around the country. In
addition to a variety of quilt shows and displays in various venues
throughout the town, many of the homes lining Tunkhannocks main
street, Tioga Street, will be decked out
with quilts displayed on porches, fences
and even vehicles, as well has hanging
fromwindows and balconies on the towns
many old Victorian homes.
Its a beautiful splash of color, Kitlin
said. Its a beautiful town with beautiful
homes and beautiful architecture, and
then we add this patchwork of color. Its
been described as Tunkhannock putting
on its best dress, and its very heartwarm-
ing.
The show is going on despite the flood
damage sustained by parts of Tunkhan-
nock several weeks ago, Kitlin said, and
despite the fact that some venues were
damaged by flooding and others were tak-
en over for use for flood relief. Plans were
shuffled to relocate some exhibits, with great care taken to ensure that
those who want to can still walk throughout the town to see the exhib-
its. Kitlinsaidshe was especially grateful tothe county commissioners
The Old Testament scene of Moses exodus is depicted on this quilt by Mary Louise Carroll.
Jeanette Space did much of the quilting, and Mary
Louise Carroll did the design and applique work on
the quilts.

C O M M U N I T Y N E W S
for allowing some displays in
the courthouse and said the ad-
dition of that venue sparked
late-stage plans for music and
food to be available on the cour-
thouse grounds.
It was very important to us
that people could still be walk-
ing around town to see the
quilts, Kitlin said. She noted
that as word of the flooding
spread, people had misconcep-
tions about how much damage
the main area of town had re-
ceived. We want them to see
how we have persevered and to
give a much-needed morale
boost to the town, she said.
We want people to know
were alive and well and our
businesses are open. We want to
bring people to our lovely town
to support our merchants, Kit-
lin said, noting that shes aware
of at least four busloads of peo-
ple from other areas who are
traveling to the show.
Airing of the Quilts will in-
clude two quilt shows, one by
the PA Quilters Guild and the
other an invitational quilt show
in which Pennsylvania quilters
are nominated and invited to
showtheir quilts. Kitlin said the
second show is an opportunity
for quilters who might not oth-
erwise decide to show their
work to let people celebrate
their handiwork.
Quilts are works of art, Kit-
lin said. Its touchable art, an
art that surrounds our lives. Its
a way people took a common
item and made it beautiful.
Kitlin said she is especially
happy to have the Bible quilts
made by Mary Louise Carroll on
display. They will be part of the
lobby display at the Tunkhan-
nock Middle School, which is
hosting the PA Quilters Guild
show.
Quilts are a product of the
quiltmakers hands and a way
for them to tell their story, she
said. With the Bible quilts, we
have a woman who is no longer
living, but her art, her quilts, are
still telling her story. Its just
beautiful.
Telling her story is exactly
what Mary Louise Carroll want-
ed to do when she made the
quilts, her niece, Jill Space, said.
She was a very spiritual
woman and had very strong
faith, Space said. She wanted
to express that in fabric.
After working through the de-
sign of a larger themed quilt on
a project featuringDutchscenes
and tiles that won a number of
prizes for its design and crafts-
manship, Carroll turned her at-
tention to her Old Testament
quilt. In a design choice espe-
cially fitting for this first public
display of the two Bible quilts
together in recently flooded
Tunkhannock, Carroll chose to
depict the story of Noahs ark. A
rendition of the ark and its pairs
of animals borders the elabo-
rately appliqud quilt, which in-
cludes 15 center blocks depict-
ing scenes from other books of
the Bibles Old Testament. The
appliqu technique Carroll used
involves meticulously cutting
small pieces of fabric into all the
shapes of the images and then
hand-stitching them in place to
form the pictures, and thou-
sands of hand-cut and sewn
pieces make up each of the two
quilts. Space said her aunt even
chose fabrics that looked like
bricks, stones and water to en-
hance the images.
Carroll lived long enough to
complete the appliqu on each
quilt, which took more than a
year each to stitch, and was able
to complete the first quilt in its
entirety. Space said her aunt
took that quilt to the Denison
House in Forty Fort several
times for display during holiday
events and enjoyed peoples re-
actions.
They usually say, Oh my!
and then look closer to see all
the intricate detail, Space said.
They cant believe one person
did every stitch of that quilt.
The second quilt, which de-
picts a Nativity scene in the bor-
ders surrounding 15 scenes
from the Christian New Testa-
ment, was completely appli-
qud and was placed in a quilt-
ing frame three weeks before
Carroll died in July 2010. The
Forty Fort Presbyterian Quil-
ters completed the quilting on
the New Testament Quilt, and
Space and her sister-in-law,
Eleanor Schneider, finished the
quilts by binding the edges in
time for themto be in the Airing
of the Quilts show.
The Bible was always a part
of Aunt Marys life, Space said.
She wanted to do a ministry
with these quilts, taking them
to different womens groups and
church groups to be displayed,
but she never got the chance to
take the two of them together
because the second one wasnt
finished.
Space and Schneider, who
both reside in Forty Fort, as did
their aunt, hope to pick up the
ministry their aunt had
planned, starting with showing
the twin-bed quilts at the Tunk-
hannock event.
I think my aunt would be
thrilled, Space said. She never
got to see the Airing of the
Quilts, but she loved sharing
her work, especially if it would
inspire someone. She would
love to know that its being dis-
played and that so many people
will have the chance tosee these
quilts.

An Untapped
Natural Resource
W
hat if Pennsylvania had a valuable natural
resource our elected officials weren't tap-
ping?
Marcellus Shale? Coal? Iron ore?
No.
Something even more valuable. People. Ed-
ucation professionals.
What if we had people who spent 150 mil-
lion hours each year in our public school class-
rooms? What if, over many years
of experience, they discovered how
kids learn and what impedes learn-
ing? What if they were trained in
approaches to overcome the obsta-
cles many of our students face?
What if these Pennsylvanians,
these educators, were eager to offer
Solutions That Work to meet the
challenges our public schools face?
What if no one was asking
them?
We Have Answers
At a time when every Tom, Dick, and Harriett
claims to know how to improve school per-
formance, shouldnt policymakers ask the pro-
fessionals who work in our schools, teach our
children, and have the experience to know what
works and what doesnt?
Professional educators dont make budgets,
allocate resources, set standards, or determine
whether students do homework or watch TV.
But we teach history, biology, French, music,
math, and reading, to name just a few. We moti-
vate. We reach the students with the most chal-
lenging learning disabilities and home lives. We
do it every day. We do it because we are com-
mitted to ensuring every student has a qualified,
caring, committed teacher.
Unlike some of the other ideas floating
around Harrisburg (like vouchers), none of our
ideas rely on abandoning our public schools.
No quitting on the students who need our help
the most. No outsourcing to those who would
exploit our children for profit. These practical
ideas are about rebuilding, as we say, the Amer-
ican way, the Pennsylvania way.
But, as amazing as it seems, this natural re-
source lies untapped.
With so many ideas about public education
threatening to take our schools and students in
the wrong direction, we invite Pennsylvanians
to benefit from the resources before them.
Solutions That Work: Based on Evidence, Ex-
pertise, and Experience
We have Solutions That Work -- ideas based on
evidence, expertise, and experience. They are
ideas for investing in the classroom priorities
that build the foundation for student learning.
We support programs that are already work-
ing like early childhood education. The bene-
fits of early childhood education far outweigh
the costs and it absolutely improves our stu-
dents success.
The solutions we propose should be state
policy, because research says they help students
learn. For example, strong communication be-
tween home and school improves student learn-
ing. So, we propose professional
development programs focused on
parental involvement and recom-
mend giving incentives to employ-
ers that provide parents
opportunities to meet with their
childrens teachers and principals.
We know these approaches
work, because educators see them
working every day.
Some schools are struggling. So,
we propose Solutions That Work to
help the students who learn in them.
We recommend additional learning time for
these students, comprehensive career and tech-
nical education, coordination between schools
and law enforcement, alternative education for
disruptive students, and training to guard
against bullying and other threats.
We have ideas for improving the teaching
profession, too. We support reinventing the
teacher evaluation system, mentoring programs
for new professionals, and streamlined dis-
missal procedures for educators who do not
meet performance standards. To learn more,
visit www.solutionsthatworkpa.org.
Lets Work Together
Pennsylvanias educators are a perpetual re-
source. We have countless ideas for improving
our public schools, which are already some of
the best in the country. And we are ready to
help lawmakers make the right choices for
Pennsylvanias students.
If we all work together educators, parents,
school boards, businesses, communities, law-
makers we will make better decisions about
investments in our schools. And the result will
be an educated population, a strong economy,
and thriving communities.
But first, policymakers must tap the re-
sources in front of them. Pennsylvanias educa-
tors are ready. We have ideas.
We have Solutions That Work. Lets use
them.

HOME AGAIN
To Consign 283-2425
69 Main Street, Luzerne PA
Home Again, located at 69 Main
St., Luzerne, PA is an upscale - resale
home decor shoppe, consigning and
selling high quality merchandise for
the home. I took my ownership on
Feb. 1, 2007. My shop consigns and
sells traditional, modern, shabby chic
and primitive furniture. Accessories,
linens, vintage and antique.
I have arranged the shoppe with
a comfortable, homey atmosphere
displayingall of theitemsfor ashopping
delight. Areas of the store are set up
so a customer can easily see how a
piece of furniture or accessory will t
into their own home decor.
I have worked in the retail sector
of business for more than 40 years.
The bug bit me when I was 16 years
old and sold my rst LP album in my
fathers electronic store. I had a very
early appreciation for ne furniture
and that came from my mother.
I have always worked for small family
owned businesses in the Wyoming
Valley. I had the best teachers of
the trade which many consider old
school retail. There was only one
way to do a job and that was the right
way. Customer service was the no.
1 priority and I carry this philosophy
over to my business. I believe my
commercial art background helped
me with displaying.
I am a proud authorized distributor
of American Heritage Furniture. This
line is cottage chic and custom order.
Also Keystone Heirloom Furniture,
Capitol Earth Rugs and Victorian
Heart Bedding.

THIS IS NO
time to relax
for the Phila-
delphia Phil-
lies.
They seem
to be relaxing,
and theyre
starting to make people edgy.
The Phillies havent been the
same since they clinched the
National League East, spending
the past week playing like they
have little to play for.
And technically, they dont.
The Phillies will open the
National League playoffs at
Citizens Bank Park on Saturday
and with home-field advantage
throughout the postseason in
their hands.
But theyre beginning to bob-
ble away those world champion-
ship plans.
The Phillies lost six straight
games to finish their final home-
stand of the season, a troubling
stretch for a team that leads the
major leagues in victories.
Six in a row, whens the last
time we did that? And I dont
even care to know, Phillies
outfielder Shane Victorino said.
Not last year. And certainly
not while they were depending
on a dominant pitching staff to
pile up a major league best 98
victories this season.
That air of invincibility sur-
rounding the Phillies and their
array of aces Roy Halladay,
Cliff Lee, Cole Hamels and Roy
Oswalt popped as swiftly as
the corks did during their divi-
sion-clinching celebration last
Saturday.
Instead of securing their
100th victory of the season at
home, the Phillies stumbled
around in a stupor.
Youve still got to play the
games, Oswalt said. And right
now, were not playing too well.
The Phillies were jeered at
Citizens Bank Park while suf-
fering a four-game sweep at the
hands of the Washington Na-
tionals.
For their regular season home
finale Thursday, the Phillies
were nearly no-hit by Brad Pea-
cock a kid making just his
second major league start and
three relievers for 8
2
3 innings.
I think were going through a
little funk, I guess you could
say, said Phillies No. 3 hitter
Chase Utley, who combined
with Philadelphias first two
batters, Jimmy Rollins and Vic-
torino, to go 0-for-the Nationals
series. Its better to happen
now than in the playoffs.
What if it carries over?
Will the Phillies fall face-
down if they cant rediscover
their swagger in time for the
postseason, and their powerful
pitching staff cant overcome
this September swoon?
The way were playing, the
way were losing, thats what
people look at, Victorino said.
Is it a subconscious thing? I
dont know. But theres definite-
ly some disappointment.
A Phillies season built around
World Series dreams could
collapse in dejection if they
dont find their old form.
Just like everybody says, the
hottest team going in usually
wins it, Oswalt said. Just look
at the last few years, its whoev-
er the hottest team is. When the
playoffs start, teams that are hot
going in are usually tough to
beat.
The Phillies are developing a
strange habit of beating them-
selves lately.
Their salvation may be none
of the Phillies potential postsea-
son match-ups seems unbeat-
able.
Entering the weekend, no

STATE COLLEGE -- One
couldnt hide his emotion,
draping a towel over his head
as he limped off the field for
good. The other wasnt able
to react at all after being
immobilized and carted
toward a waiting ambulance.
Penn State won the game.
Afterward, the Nittany Lions
could speak only of loss.
Linebacker Michael Mauti
suffered an
ACL injury
to his left
knee and is
almost cer-
tainly out for
the rest of
the season.
Corner-
back DAn-
ton Lynn crumpled motion-
less to the Beaver Stadium
grass after a helmet-to-hel-
met collision and was quickly
taken to Mount Nittany Med-
ical Center for evaluation.
Lynn retained feeling in his
extremities and was released
from the hospital two hours
after the game, according to
Penn State. His status for the
rest of the season will be
better determined later this
week.
Few wanted to talk about
the Lions 34-6 win against
overmatched Eastern Michi-
gan.
(Lynn) and Mauti have
worked really hard -- both of
those kids, coach Joe Pa-
terno said. Thats taken a lot
out of the fact that we won
and I thought played well
overall. Theyre two good
kids who stayed up here all
summer, worked hard, were
leaders.
And one play and theyre
outta there.
The school was waiting for
an official diagnosis on Mau-
tis knee, which will likely
come today following the
results of an MRI. But Pa-

NEWYORKManager Terry
Francona took input from his
players in writing a revamped li-
neup and sent his ace to the
mound. Yet the Boston Red Sox
lost yet again.
David Ortiz has another idea.
What yougot
to do right now
is laugh, just see
if you can fool
somebody, the
big designated
hitter said.
Derek Jeter
capped a six-run
second inning
with a three-run
homer, rookie
Jesus Montero
had four RBIs in
finishing a triple
shy of the cycle
and the New
York Yankees
stunned the
reeling Red Sox
early in a 9-1 victory Saturday.
Boston dropped to 4-15 since
holding a nine-game lead over
the Rays in the AL wild-card race
heading into play Sept. 4. Tampa
Bay closed within 1 1-2 games of
Bostonwitha 6-2winover Toron-
to.
The Red Sox and Yankees play
a day-night doubleheader Sun-
daybeforeBostontravels toBalti-
more for a season-ending three-
game series. Francona is done
with of all the talk of fixing the
Red Sox.
Nowits uptous togowin, he
said. We know whats in front of
us, we just have to play better.
Freddy Garcia (12-8) pitched
six innings of six-hit ball, making
his case for the No. 3 spot in the
Yankees postseasonrotation. Be-
fore a regular-season record
crowd of 49,556 at the new Yan-
kee Stadium, the AL East cham-
pions usedtheir A lineupfor the
opener of a series pushed back by
a rainout Friday. They quickly
roughed up Jon Lester (15-9).
By the ninth, all the starting
position players except Nick
Swisher were out of the game. Af-
ter the game, they clinched
homefield advantage throughout
the AL playoffs when Detroit lost
to Baltimore.
Montero hit the fourth homer
of his brief big league career, dou-
bled in two runs in the third and
had an RBI single in four at-bats.
Russell Martin backed his decla-
ration of dislike for the rival Red
Sox with a two-run single.
Heading in, the numbers add-
ed up for Boston: 6-0 at Yankee

FIRST QUARTER
PSU-- Anthony Fera 29-yard field
goal, 4:18. Drive: 7 plays, 45 yards, 4:11.
Comment: Eric Latimore strips Eagles
quarterback Alex Gillett at the Penn
State 44 and Jack Crawford recovers
the fumble. Then we see some history.
No, not that the Nittany Lions success-
fully kicked a field goal -- though the
make improved themto 2-for-7 on
the year -- but the kick gave Fera a
rare trifecta. The sophomore became
the first Penn State player since Chris
Bahr in1975 to handle field goal,
punting and kickoff duties at the same
time. Its not a long field goal by any
means, but Penn State will take any-
thing it can get at this point. PENN
STATE 3, EASTERNMICHIGAN0.
SECOND QUARTER
PSU-- Joe Suhey 27-yard pass from
Matt McGloin (Fera kick), 8:19. Drive: 5
plays, 63 yards, 2:20. Comment: And
some more history. Sort of. In the 14th
quarter of the 2011 season, Penn State
finally throws a touchdown pass. On
his first drive of the game, McGloin
sells a nice fake and has all the time in
the world to measure up wide-open
fullback Suhey on a delayed wheel
route for an easy pitch and catch down
the left sideline. Its the Lions first
passing touchdown since Jan. 1 in the
Outback Bowl against Florida. PSU10,
EMU0.PSU-- Derek Moye 5-yard pass
fromMcGloin (Fera kick), 0:56. Drive: 5
plays, 31 yards, 0:47. Comment: Three
straight drives end in turnovers to
change the pace of the game. Penn
States Glenn Carson recovers an
errant lateral and the Lions are inches
away fromconverting it into another
touchdown. McGloin hits Michael
Zordich in the flat for a sure score, but
the Eagles jar the ball loose just before
the goal line and it bounces through
the end zone for a touchback. Eastern
reciprocates by throwing an intercep-
tion to Nick Sukay, which sets up
McGloins quick slant over the middle
to Moye. The senior wideout goes over
2,000 career receiving yards on the
play. PSU17, EMU0.
THIRD QUARTER
PSU-- Devon Smith 71-yard pass from
Rob Bolden (Fera kick), 13:59. Drive: 3
plays, 76 yards, 0:55. Comment: De-
spite McGloins impressive second
quarter, the rotation continues with
Bolden taking back over to start the
second half. For once, a play designed
for the kid they call Moo-Moo works
to perfection as Smith is wide open on
a swing to the right. He uses his sprint-
ers speed to fly untouched down the
right sideline for a third (third?) pass-
ing score of the game for Penn State.
Credit Moye with a huge block to
spring Smith for the final 40 yards or
so. It was Boldens first passing score
since Oct. 23, 2010, against Minnesota
-- the same game he suffered a con-
cussion that knocked himout of the
starting job. PSU24, EMU0.PSU--
Moye 20-yard pass fromMcGloin (Fera
kick), 2:27. Drive: 10 plays, 87 yards,
4:22. Comment: Both quarterbacks
continue to make their case for the
starting job headed into next weeks
Big Ten opener at Indiana. After a
shaky start to the drive, McGloin
settles things down and the Lions turn
in their best drive of the game. This
one is capped off with McGloins sec-
ond scoring strike to Moye, who cre-
ates separation in the back corner of
the end zone for the touchdown. Moye
moves into third place all-time on Penn
States career receiving yards list
behind Bobby Engramand Deon
Butler. PSU31, EMU0.
FOURTHQUARTER
EMU-- Kody Fulkerson 21-yard field
goal, 11:50. Drive: 6 plays 17 yards, 3:04.
Comment: Bolden back in the game
has a pass tipped in the air and picked
off by defensive end Brad Ohrman
deep in Penn State territory. The
Eagles cant do much with the oppor-
tunity despite driving inside the Lions
10 and Drew Astorino hammers a
scrambling Alex Gillett well short of
the goal line to force the field goal
attempt. The shutout is over, but the
defense still does its job on the series.
PSU31, EMU3.PSU-- SamFicken
43-yard field goal, 8:32. Drive: 9 plays,
50 yards, 3:11. Comment: Its officially
garbage time as Shane McGregor
takes over at quarterback with fellow
walk-on Derek Day in the backfield.
McGregor completes his first career
pass for 12 yards to Ryan Scherer.
Though Fera could probably still use
the field goal practice, its the true
freshman Ficken who connects for his
first made field goal. PSU34, EMU3.
EMU-- Fulkerson 22-yard field goal,
3:04. Drive: 17 plays, 72 yards, 5:22.
Comment: Not much to say here. The
Eagles mercifully chew up clock
against the Lions reserves on defense
but still cant find the end zone. Mike
Wallace breaks up a touchdown pass
and Eastern decides just to take the
points. PSU34, EMU6.
PLAY OF THE GAME
A depressing first quarter saw Penn
State score just three points against an
overmatched opponent and then lose
top linebacker Michael Mauti to a torn
ACL. Finally it was Matt McGloin who
got the offense in gear, moving the ball
well on his first drive in the game in
the second quarter. A well-executed
play has the Scranton signal-caller
connect with fullback Joe Suhey for a
27-yard touchdown, finally snapping
the Lions passing TD drought at 14
quarters.
STATE COLLEGE -- Two
new seats appeared on the
home sideline before Saturdays
game, one planted right at the
50-yard line.
A wooden stool showed up at
midfield and a golf cart wasnt
far away, both signs that Joe
Paterno would be returning to
the field. Backup plans, if you
will, for an ailing hip.
The joke before the game was
that the Penn State coach
would rotate his seats like his
quarterbacks -- a few drives
with one, then a few with the
other.
But when Paterno reclaimed
his familiar spot on the home
sideline at Beaver Stadium, he
used no chair and he used no
cane.
The 84-year-old coach made
his first appearance on the field
during a game this season as he
continues to recover from a hip
injury suffered in August. He
remained there for the first half
before relenting and heading up
to the coaches booth -- where
he spent all of the Nittany Li-
ons first three games this year
-- for the second half.
Im trying to get away with-
out taking pain pills and trying
to do things without the cane,
Paterno said. Im trying to do a
little bit on my own. I dont
want to have something sup-
porting me.
I felt great until about four
or five minutes to go in the first
half, and then I just could hard-
ly move. But obviously I had to
move. When we got ahead and
it looked like we were OK, I just
decided, Hey, this is foolish, so
Im gonna go upstairs.
The main concern for Pa-
terno has been his lack of mo-
bility. Doctors have told him
they are worried about his
ability to get out of the way of
plays that end in front of the
Lions sideline.
As a precaution, Paterno was
kept back a few yards back from
where he would typically stand.
Graduate assistant Gus Felder --
formerly a pass protector at
Berwick High School and Penn
State -- spent much of the game
near Paterno keeping an eye
out for traffic.
I think each week Ill do a
little bit more, Paterno said. It
just hurts. Im not as tough as I
used to be -- not that I was ever
tough.
A new leg up
Though he said earlier in the
week he was reluctant to make
personnel changes following a
narrow win at Temple, Paterno
ended up making a switch at
placekicker Saturday.
With the Lions a miserable
1-for-6 on field goals after three
games, Paterno made the call to
go sophomore Anthony Fera,
who also handled punting and
kickoff duties.
It was a very rare occurrence
for Paterno and the Lions. The
last Penn State player to serve
as punter and placekicker full-
time was Chris Bahr in 1975.
Fera hit his first career at-
tempt, converting from 29
yards out in the first quarter.
True freshman Sam Ficken also
earned his first career make
with a 43-yarder in the fourth
quarter.
Fera took over for walk-on
Evan Lewis, a converted receiv-
er/defensive back, who was
1-for-5 on the season, hitting
only a 43-yarder against Alaba-
ma. Ficken had the Lions other
attempt, a 49-yard try that was
blocked against Temple.
Weve just gotta keep plug-
ging away and try to get those
kids a little bit more confidence
in themselves, Paterno said.
We spent an awful lot of time
on the kicking game this past
week. I thought we were better.
We still werent where Id like
us to be, but I thought we were
better.
Milestones
Senior captain Derek Moye
had six catches for 65 yards and
two touchdowns, and continued
his rise in the Penn State record
books.
Moye became the sixth play-
er in Penn State history to top
2,000 career receiving yards,
and his 2,026 total puts him
third all-time behind Bobby
Engram and Deon Butler.
The two scores put him
fourth all-time with 17 career
receiving touchdowns.
I feel honored to be on the
list, Moye said. At the same
time, Im just worried about
trying to get wins and trying to
improve our offense this sea-
son.
Devon Smith had his first
career 100-yard receiving game,
finishing with 104 yards, in-
cluding a 71-yard swing pass
that he turned into a touch-
down.
True freshman receiver Bill
Belton came up with his first
career catch. Hes still looking
for his first career yard. A bub-
ble screen to the shifty rookie
was sniffed out by the Eagles
for no gain.
Walk-on quarterbacks Shane
McGregor and Garrett Venuto
both got in the game in the
fourth quarter and completed
their first career passes.

Michigan in State College on Saturday.
PENN STATE
N O T E B O O K
terno and defensive coordinator
Tom Bradley both said they ex-
pect their leading tackler to be
gone for the rest of the year.
Certainly Mauti had an idea of
what had happened to himwhen
he went to make a cut, only to
have his left knee give out from
under himon a play at the end of
the first quarter. Mauti had torn
the ACL in his right knee during
a preseason scrimmage in Au-
gust 2009, knocking him out for
that entire year.
I was watching him that play
and there was no contact or any-
thing -- just him going down,
said senior Nate Stupar, who re-
placed Mauti at the strongside
position. He just went, and
when the ball cut back, some-
thing happened to his knee. He
just fell over.
My prayers are out tohimand
I hope he gets better quick.
While Mautis injury initially
looked innocent -- Bradley said
he thought his top linebacker
just had the wind knocked out of
him -- and then turned serious,
Lynns situation was the oppo-
site.
Beaver Stadiumwent silent af-
ter Lynn appeared to hit the
crown of his helmet into the hel-
met of teammate Nick Sukay in
the third quarter.
Lynn crashed to the grass,
where he laid face down as doc-
tors and emergency personnel
rushed out to him.
But the news after the game
was positive for Lynn, who was
released from the hospital after
doctors examined his neck and
spinal column to determine
there was no serious damage.
Bradley said Lynn had bur-
ners down his arms -- an injury
alsoknownas a stinger, charac-
terized by a shooting pain fol-
lowed by temporary numbness.
Ive been here awhile, and
when they take your guy out on
the board, its tough, Bradley
said. Its a tough day.
It brings backs some bad me-
mories there. He was just breath-
ing so heavy, I got nervous,
yknow? I dont know if he was
just scared -- I guess you would
be too if they put you on a board,
they wrapped you up and cut
your (face) mask off. Well have
to wait and see on that one.
With Lynn out of the game,
Chaz Powell, Stephon Morris
and true freshman Adrian Amos
rotated as the first-teamcorners.
The injuries dwarfed some im-
provements the Lions (3-1) were
able to make on offense.
Matt McGloin (14-for-17, 220
yards, 3TDs) finally snappedthe
teams slump of 13 quarters with-
out a passing touchdown, hitting
fullback Joe Suhey for a 27-yard
score in the second quarter.
It was the teams first passing
touchdown since the Outback
Bowl on Jan. 1.
McGloin later hooked up with
Derek Moye for scoring strikes
of 5 and 20 yards.
I think its just a matter of get-
ting more comfortable in there,
McGloin said. Obviously youd
still want there to be one guy
(runningthe offense), but its the
coaches call.
Bolden (7-of-13, 115 yards, TD,
INT) threw for his first score
since Oct. 23, 2010, when he hit
Devon Smith on a swing pass
that went 71 yards to pay dirt.
For now, the quarterback dra-
ma takes a backseat as the Lions
try to move on from an emotion-
ally draining day.
Theres alot of ways tohandle
adversity, Paterno said. You
can feel sorry for yourself, or it
canbindyoutogether. Anda cou-
ple of guys can rise to the occa-
sion and say, Hey, we dont have
this guy, we dont have that guy.
Ive gotta do a little bit more. Ive
gotta be a little bit better.
Hopefully well have some
guys who will do that.

and need to make sure that Im
putting the ball on people, and if
theyre not openI have to throwit
away.
Ray Graham ran for 89 yards
and added 43 yards receiving for
Pitt, but the Panthers coulddo lit-
tle else. Sunseri, who has strug-
gled getting the ball downfield,
didnt complete a pass longer
than18 yards.
We had too many negative
plays, Pittsburgh coach Todd
Grahamsaid.
Toomanytobeat theIrish(2-2)
andquell talkabout theprograms
announced move from the Big
East to the ACC being a distrac-
tion.
Graham called the move to the
ACC a step up and believes the
Panthers can be competitive the
moment they arrive.
Goodthingtheyhave three sea-
sons to iron out the kinks. Gra-
ham has spent the last nine
months putting Pitt through an
intense makeover. He preaches
speed and precision. The Pan-
thers lacked both at critical times
against the Irish.
We know that we left some
plays out there, and we cant con-
tinuetodothat, saidwidereceiv-
er Mike Shanahan. We need to
convert all thesituationswhenwe
get achanceintheredzone, short-
yardage, things like that. We need
to finish these games.
Pitt wont have a lot of time to
figure it out. The Panthers open
the Big East portion of their
scheduleonThursdayagainst No.
18 South Florida.
Westill canwintheconference
and go to a BCS bowl game, and
thats been our goal from the be-
ginning, Shanahan said.
Avictory over the Irish certain-
ly would have helped the resume
though.
Pitt appearedtobe onthe verge
through three quarters, shutting
down Notre Dames high-power-
edoffenseandforcingapair of key
turnovers.
Im not saying theyre not a
goodteam, becausetheyare, Pitt
defensive tackle Chas Alecxih
said. However, we hammered
them pretty good on defense, for
the most part.
Just not when it really mat-
tered.
Rees went 8 for 8 on the game-
winning drive, keeping his wits
about him after taking a beating
throughthreequarters. Pitt didan
excellent job bottling up Notre
Dame wide receiver Michael
Floyd, whowas heldtofour catch-
es, but Rees made the Panthers
pay by spreading the ball around.
Youve just got to make the
right decisions, Rees said. We
did some good things getting the
ball underneath and just kind of
chipping away at their defense.
Rees finished 24 of 41 for 216
yards. Jonas Gray scored on a 79-
yard touchdown run for Notre
Dame.
They broke that long run and
that kills us, Alecxihsaid. Other
than that, we played our butts off
on defense. So, this one hurts as
much as anything.
Pitt had one last chance after
Eiferts score and 2-point conver-
sion. ThePanthersmovedquickly
to the Notre Dame 40 before go-
ing backward.
AaronLynchsackedSunseri on
first down and Prince Shembo
racked up Notre Dames fifth and
final sack on third down, setting
the Panthers up with a fourth-
and-26.
No chance.
Sunseris pass to Shanahan was
incomplete and Rees came on to
lead the Irish to one more first
down and run out the clock.
Weve lost two close games
back-to-back, Graham said. Ive
got all the confidence in the
world. Our focus is to go to work
andfigure out a waytobeat South
Floridaandbe1-0intheBigEast.

WILKES-BARRE TWP. Al-
bright could get used to putting
up points on the Wilkes-Barre
schools.
A week after breaking school
records in a 65-26 drubbing of
Wilkes, the Lions offense was at
it again, wearing down and dis-
mantling a Kings defense that
allowed 533 total yards.
Albright delivered the Mon-
archs their first loss in MAC
play with a 57-17 victory at
McCarthy Stadium.
The Lions (4-0 overall, 2-0
MAC) scored 29 consecutive
points to close out the game.
Kings pulled in to within11be-
fore the Lions running game
held to just 52 yards in the first
half began clicking.
They wore us out, Kings
head coach Jeff Knarr said.
They knew they were bigger
and older than us. Thats a se-
nior-laden football team, and
they took advantage of a young
football team.
Down 28-10 at the half, the
Monarchs opened the third
quarter with two long passes to
Jay Torres. But Kings running
back Eric Ofcharsky fumbled
the ball, unforced, near the goal
line. The Lions David Wenn
picked up the fumble.
Kings forced Albrights only
punt of the game and marched
down the field to allow Ofchar-
sky to punch in a redeeming 2-
yard touchdown run, closing
the gap to 28-17.
Penalties were a continuing
theme for the Monarchs. Kings
was penalized 11 times for 105
yards.
The bottom line is that we
have to play cleaner football
and not get killed on penalties,
Knarr said. Offensively, it kills
drives. Defensively, it kept Al-
bright with the ball, and theyre
too good of a football program
to have the amount of penalties
we had.
We cant be our worst ene-
my.
Kings (1-2 overall, 1-1 MAC)
missed out on a huge opportuni-
ty in the first quarter while trail-
ing 14-3. An Albright defender
roughed punter Mike Lloyd, and
the Monarchs recovered a fum-
ble on the return at the 15. A
Kings penalty for catching inter-
ference gave each teama flag on
the play, forcingthe Monarchs to
replay the down.
Torres posted a productive
day fromthe wideout spot, frus-
trating the Lions secondary for
much of the first three quarters.
Torres caught six passes for 173
yards and a touchdown. Five of
Torres six catches were for 20
yards or more, including a 53-
yard grab in the third quarter.
Quarterback Joe Kirchon
connected on 17-of-30 passes
for 290 yards and a touchdown.
Kings scored its first touch-
down in the second quarter
when Kirchon found Torres on
a post pattern for 22 yards to
make it a 21-10 game.
We gave up a lot of big plays
in the passing game, Albright
head coach John Marzka said.
There were too many times,
especially in the first half,
where we let them throw the
ball deep on us.
Albright converted 10-of-12
third downs. In contrast, Kings
went 5-for-13 on third downs.

KINGS
EDWARDSVILLE Alex Ge-
orge split time as Wilkes quarter-
back last year and didnt begin
taking snaps regularly until mid-
way through the season.
Its a much different scenario
for the sophomore this time
around as he began the season as
the starter and has been taking
the majority of the snaps for the
Colonels since fellow QB Tyler
Bernsten returned from an inju-
ry.
He may have solidified himself
as the starter for the team going
forwardafter Saturdays perform-
ance.
George had a part in all five of
his teams touchdowns, throwing
for a pair and rushing for three
more as the Colonels defeated
Widener 35-27 at newly-named
Schmidt Stadium.
George threwfor176 yards and
pickedup98more onthe ground.
While coach Frank Sheptock said
that Bernsten will still get
worked into the system, he was
only in the game for a handful of
snaps and didnt attempt a pass.
The Colonels (1-2, 1-1 MAC)
picked up their first win of the
season during their first home
contest of the campaign as they
celebrated homecoming. Wilkes
also dealt the Pride (3-1, 1-1) their
first setback of the season.
We feel like weve had that in
us the last few weeks, George
said about his teams perform-
ance. Weve done some things
that have cost us some plays but
its an overall great performance
on offense.
Sheptock was looking for
somethingpositivefromhis team
after it gave up a dreadful 65
points a week ago to Albright. He
was encouraged by the way his
team responded. And while the
defense gave up 441 yards, it cap-
italized by gaining five turnovers
and could have had two more on
potential interceptions that were
dropped.
Ive had a lot of great wins
here and a lot of things that Im
very proud of in this program,
and this is one of my finest days,
Sheptock said. With what hap-
pened last week and how this
team responded. Not so much
that we won the game, but how
they played the game and the
leadershipthat our captains took.
We really grew up a lot this week
and if we can take that maybe we
can go on a nice run here.
George led the Colonels to
their first score on their second
possession when they got a
break. Wilkes was called for a
holding penalty on third-and-
nine from the Widener 27. In-
steadof deferringthepenaltyand
forcing Wilkes into a fourth
down, the Pride accepted and
gave the Colonels another oppor-
tunity on third-and-19.
Thats when George looked for
senior receiver Todd Eagles. The
pass was low, but Eagles (4recep-
tions, 84 yards) caught the ball
around his ankles then slanted
through the Widener defense for
a 37-yard score and a 7-0 lead
with 8:11 left in the first quarter.
After that, Wilkes never gave
up the lead.

WIDENER
mers six years as coach. Only a
35-0 shutout by Carbondale in
2009 came close.
Quarterback Nick OBrien start-
ed the rout on the fifth play of the
game, squirting through the mid-
dle for a 44-yard touchdown run.
Wyoming Area (2-1) then scored
two touchdowns in less than a
minute to take a 20-0 lead at 10:59
of the second quarter.
The first of those two TDs came
on a 42-yard run by OBrien. Then
after a Hanover Area fumble one
play after the kickoff, the Warriors
struck again as OBrien collided
with a running back, yet managed
to bounce in for a 1-yard touch-
down.
It was that kind of game for
Wyoming Area and Hanover Ar-
ea.
TheHawkeyes didjust about ev-
erything possible to make Wyom-
ingAreas jobeasier. Theyfumbled
six times in the first half, losing
HANOVER TWP. Wyoming
Area couldnt have dreamed of a
better first half on Saturday night.
Andat the same time, those two
quarters were Hanover Areas
worst nightmare.
The Warriors raced out to a 34-
point halftime lead and continued
rolling all the way to a 48-0 thrash-
ing of Hanover Area in a Wyoming
Valley Conference Division 2A-A
game.
I saidtothe kids, this was prob-
ably the worst beating we took in
25 years, 35 years, Hanover Area
coach Ron Hummer said.
It was definitely the worst loss
for Hanover Area (2-2) in Hum-
two. Quarterback Joe Ksiazkiew-
icz was sacked for times and pres-
sured on nearly every play. One
kickoff was fumbled and another
bobbled.
Those factors were made even
worse by Hanover Areas average
starting fieldpositionof its18-yard
line.
Cody Schmitz added a 9-yard
TDrunandJeff Skursky plowedin
from6 yards out to give Wyoming
Area a 34-0 halftime lead.
The game was going to be the
two lines, Wyoming Area coach
Randy Spencer said. Hanover has
outstandingsizeandgreat measur-
ables, but our kids up front did a
hell of a job. Offensively, (Joe) Er-
zar, (E.J.) Driving Hawk, (Jacob)
Smith, (Nick) Bartoli, (Carl) Zie-
linski and our tight end Trent
Grove did a great job playing toe-
to-toe.
Those three yards is the differ-
ence in the football game and they
did a great job handling it.
The defensive line did as well
playing against a Hanover Area of-
fensiveline, consideredamongthe
best in the WVC. Hanover Area
running back Parrish Bennett en-
tered the game with 486 rushing
yards. He finished with 57 on 14
carries. The Hawkeyes had just 4
yards rushing total on 20 carries
in the first half.

the ball on the Dallas 25. Wilk

by going 13 yards into the end

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo.
(AP) The Olympic Training
Center, long idealized as the Amer-
ican athletes home base in the
quest for Olympic glory, is turning
into a for-profit operation, offering
space for corporate outings, swim
clubs and other outsiders in an at-
tempt to recoup some of the $21
millionayearspent onthefacilities.
The U.S. Olympic Committee
runs three official Olympic Train-
ingCentersinColoradoSprings,
Lake Placid, N.Y., and Chula Vista,
Calif.
Rulon Gardner has worked out
there. So have Michael Phelps and
Apolo Anton Ohno.
But as time has passed, fewer
elite athletes have been full-time
residents at the OTCs. Members of
the womens gymnastics team, for
instance, train in gyms across the
country, then use Bela Karolyis
ranch in Texas as their base. Canoe
and kayak has a training center in
Oklahoma City. And most track

their coaches at tracks across the

By day, MartinMoucha is a civ-
il engineer withthe Quad3group
in Wilkes-Barre.
By evening, on the weekends
and just about every other spare
moment, Moucha is a hockey
player.
Even during his lunch hour,
Moucha can be found on the ice
at Coal Street, honing his skills.
And for good reason.
The 2003 Wyoming Seminary
graduate and Mountain Top resi-
dent was invited to the Wilkes-
Barre/Scranton Penguins train-
ing camp, which opens Monday.
For Moucha, 27, the chance to
make his hometown team is a
dream come true.
I was ecstatic, he said of be-
ing invitation. It tells me they
may have seen something they
liked.
There is plenty to like about
Moucha. The 6-0, 185-poundwin-
ger was born in the Czech Repub-
lic and played for that countrys
junior A team until he was 16.
Thats when a friend told him
about Wyoming Seminary, and
the possibility of pursuing his
hockey career and furthering his
education at the same time.
That sold it for me to come
over, Moucha said.
He graduated from Wyoming
Seminary in 2003 and played ju-
nior hockey in the U.S. and Cana-
da for a little over a year before he
was noticed by a coach fromNor-
wich University in Vermont.
Moucha began his career at
Norwichin2004, but it was short-
lived. After appearing in 23
games that season and scoring
three goals, Moucha sustainedan
injury that cut short his college
career.
Still, Moucha graduated, earn-
ing a degree in civil engineering
before returning to the area and
landing a full-time job.
For a while, Moucha was con-
tent to put his hockey dreams on
hold.
Until last year.
Thats when a friend who hap-
pened to be head coach of the
Danbury Whalers in the Federal
Hockey League Phil Esposito --
asked Moucha is hed like to
come up to Connecticut and play
with the team on weekends.
So when the work week ended
onFriday, Moucha made the two-
hour drive to Danbury to play
hockey.
I had a great time doing it but
it was tough, he said. I skated
here during the week with some
of the Penguins who were injured
or healthy scratches. Id work an
eight-hour day, go home and
worked out or rode the bike to
stay in shape. Thats as much
practice as I got.
Despite the lack of practice,
Moucha turned in an impressive
season with Danbury, scoring 10
goals and 31 points in 17 games
while posting a rating of plus-23.
That effort earned him a stint
inthe ECHLat the endof last sea-
son with the Elmira Jackals,
where he scoredtwo goals andan
assist in five games.
And thats when Mouchas pro
hockey dreams rekindled.
I feel like I did well and I felt
OK skating with those guys, he
said.
Moucha has played left wing
for most of his career and enjoys
playing the set-up role. He has a
wicked backhand shot and
doesnt shy away from the phys-
ical game.
Im not a physical player but I
like to hit a bit more than you see
overseas, Moucha said. Back
home I guess I would be consid-
ered an aggressive player.
And now he is taking an ag-
gressive approach to his training
as camp approaches.
During the summer, Moucha
skated as much as possible and
worked out daily with Joe Lo-
rincz, Wilkes-Barre/Scrantons
strength and conditioning coach.
It was a grind trying to work
full-time and train in every spare
moment, but Moucha had a lot of
motivation.
Penguins training camp was
huge motivation for me, he said.
I worked every day until 3:30
p.m., got out and then went to
Coal Street to work out from 4-7
p.m. for 12 weeks.
Even in the last few weeks
Moucha has managed to amp up
his workout routine.
Instead of eating lunch on my
lunch hour I usually come here
(Coal Street) to skate, he said.
Especially nowbeing so close to
camp, I try to get here everyday.
As Moucha continues to pre-
pare for camp, he intends to draw
on his experience of last season
andevena lessonhelearnedfrom
skating with the Penguins play-
ers at Coal Street.
You need to have a hunger for
the puck and a good work ethic,
Moucha said. Thats the biggest
thing I picked up fromthem. You
do that in practice and it will
transfer to the game.
AndMoucha hopes the time he
spent balancing a full-time job
with a full-time hockey hobby
turns into a pro career.

Martin Moucha of Mountain Top takes a shot on goal during prac-
tice Thursday.
der had won more than two
straight games, although the
Cardinals won four of five chas-
ing a wild card berth.
So the Phillies arent the only
team trying to get back in a
groove.
Were sitting in a pretty good
position, Phillies manager
Charlie Manuel said, but we
need to pick it up.
Its time for us to kick it and
time for us to get ready for the
playoffs.
Theyll be here quickly,
whether the Phillies are hot or
not.

PHILADELPHIA Maybe
the Philadelphia Eagles and
New York Giants should settle
their differences in a steel cage.
The two NFC East rivals sim-
ply dont like each other, and
theyve been going at it verbally
like WWE stars. Because battle
royals arent allowed in the NFL,
the teams will have to fight it out
on the field Sunday in Philadel-
phias home opener.
Its a lot of intensity, a lot of
trash-talking and a lot of guys on
thefieldthat just hateeachother,
Eagles cornerback Asante Sa-
muel said. Theyjust want tobeat
eachothers headin. Its verycom-
petitive and has a long line of his-
tory behind it. Its an ongoing ri-
valry that has a lot to it.
While the labor lockout kept
players off the practice field dur-
ing the summer, Eagles running
back LeSean
McCoyandGi-
ants defensive
end Osi Ume-
nyiora were
busy taking
shots at each
other on Twit-
ter.
McCoy said
Umenyiora
was over-
rated and
soft and
ranked the
two-time Pro
Bowl pick as
third best on
NewYorks de-
fensive line.
Umenyiora re-
taliated by
calling McCoy a girl and re-
ferred to him as Lady Gaga.
I hate him, he hates me, peri-
od, Umenyiora toldthe Newark
Star-Ledger in June. Theres a
real hatred toward Philly and
theres a real hatred for them to-
ward us.
Umenyiora may not get a
chance to tackle McCoy this
week because hes still listed as
day to day after having arthro-
scopic surgery on his right knee
early in training camp.
His absencewont decreasethe
animosity between the teams.
Bothclubs enter witha1-1record.
The Eagles have won the last six
meetings, including an incredible
38-31 comeback victory last De-
cember at the Meadowlands that
helpedthemsecure the NFCEast
title.
Michael Vick rallied Philadel-
phia from a 21-point deficit with
8:17 left, and the Eagles won it on
DeSeanJacksons 65-yardpunt re-
turn for a touchdown on the last
play.
It is what it is, Giants safety
Antrel Rolle said. It took place
last year. Its not something that
we might ever forget, but at the
same time, its a newyear.
Rollejoinedinonthetrash-talk-
ing earlier in the week when he
said in a radio interviewhe wants
to cover Jackson one-on-one be-
cause hes done it before and
could handle it again.
Jackson had nothing to say
about Rolles boast, but wide re-
ceiver JeremyMaclintookajabat
himand the rest of the Giants.
A lot of times when people
talk, theyre either insecure or
theyre scared, so you guys
choose, Maclin said. Its a new
year. We understandthat we have
to go out there and play. On the
other hand, theyhavenobusiness
talkingbecausetheyhavent done
anything in the last six times.
The Eagles are hoping Vick
plays after suffering a concussion
inthesecondhalf of a35-31loss at
Atlanta. Vick practiced Thursday,
andit appearedhewouldbeready
to go unless he had a setback.
Of course, the Giants said they
expect to face Vick instead of
backups Mike Kafka and Vince
Young. CoachTomCoughlinsaid
he didnt even plan to prepare for
a different quarterback.
Hes the best player to give
them an opportunity to play
their best ball, Rolle said. Im
the type of guy, I like going
against the best. If I dont go
against the best, a wins a win,
well always take a win, but its
always better when they have
their better guys on the field.

U P N E X T
PITTSBURGH Ryan Clark
respects Peyton Manning, and
he feels for the Indianapolis
Colts as they continue to search
for tractionandanidentity while
their franchise quarterback re-
covers fromneck surgery.
Still, the Pittsburgh Steelers
safety isnt exactly complaining
about takingonthewinlessColts
(0-2) without Manning on Sun-
day, and Clarks source of glee
has nothing to do with facing
Kerry Collins instead of the four-
time MVP.
Collins has a better record
(3-2) against the Steelers than
Manning (2-2), a better comple-
tion percentage (64 to 60), and a
better touchdown/interception
ratio.
The one thing Collins doesnt
have onManning? Actingability.
Taking on the Colts without
Manning means not having to
endure 20-25 seconds of the
quarterback standing at the line
of scrimmage frantically barking
out orders as if he was playing
some football version of char-
ades.
Thank Godbecause that is so
boring, Clark said with mock
exasperation. Such a theatrical
performance.
Clark was kidding sort of.
Clark is pretty sure there was
some football involved in Man-
nings gestures. Hes also pretty
sure some of it was simple ga-
mesmanship.
It got talked about so much
and people loved it so much I
think Peyton even kind of fed in-
toit, Imgoingtokeepdoingthis
because people think Imdoing a
lot at the line, Clark said.
The Colts have been more de-
liberate through the first two
weeks as the veteran Collins
plucked out of retirement by
coach JimCaldwell a month ago
learns the system Manning
has orchestratedsoartfullyfor13
seasons.
And Collins has been effective
against the Steelers. He beat
them the first three times he
faced them, including a 17-point
whipping in 2008 while playing
for Tennessee. And even at 38-
years-old, the Steelers believe
Collins canoperate quickly if not
quite as efficiently as Manning.
Theyre not going to run the
same offense that Peyton runs,
because theres only one Peyton,
but theyre still running their of-
fense, defensive coordinator
Dick LeBeau said. And theyre
still runningno-huddle, andwell
have tobe ready for a lot of snaps
and getting our calls in at the
ball.
Pittsburgh will likely be with-
out defensive end Brett Keisel,
who missed practice again on
Thursday with a knee injury.
Third-year man Ziggy Hood will
get thestart if Keisel cant go, and
though hes wary of Collins, hes
not expecting a track meet.
It could be slowed down to
where we get in our formations
and we get it right, Hood said.
This is the third game and (Col-
lins) has only been there so long.
If wewas playingthemlateinthe
season, maybe that no huddle
will come into play. Maybe this
week we dont know. Weve got
to be prepared.
For all the progress the Colts
believe theyve made while giv-
ing Collins a crash course in an
attack thats been tailored to
Mannings unique talents, they
knowtheyre not quite operating
at the same speed as usual.

U P N E X T
OAKLAND, Calif. Mark
Sanchezs previous trip to Oak-
land went so well he could spend
the closing minutes on the bench
sneaking bites of a hot dog
mustard and all as the New
York Jets wrapped up a lopsided
win.
With a vastly improved offense
led by Jason Campbell, Darren
McFadden and a bevy of speedy
wide receivers, this years version
of the Raiders appears a much
more formida-
ble bunch than
the JaMarcus
Russell squad
that was beaten
38-0 in 2009 in
the most one-
sidedhomeloss
in Raiders his-
tory.
I hope we
can make it
more interest-
ing for him so
he doesnt have
to eat hot
dogs, coach
Hue Jackson
said. Hopeful-
ly, we can take
the mustard
and the relish
and the onions
and all that and
put it away and play a little foot-
ball.
Even though Jackson was an
assistant in Baltimore when San-
chez and the Jets embarrassed
the Raiders two years ago, he
made sure to show his team the
video of Sanchez scarfing down
the frankfurter inthe fourthquar-
ter of the blowout.
That opened old wounds for
whichever Raiders are still in
Oakland two years later, and
those players made sure the new-
comers knowall about it incase it
can provide a bit of extra motiva-
tion Sunday when the Raiders
(1-1) host the Jets (2-0) in their
home opener.
Coach showed that to us, de-
fensive tackle Tommy Kelly said.
It was just a reminder. Were go-
ing to remind him of that during
the game.
Sanchez apologized after the
fact, not realizing he had been
caught on television eating a hot
dog a cameraman gave him be-
cause he was hungry. Coach Rex
Ryan was critical of his quarter-
back after the fact and promised
it would be an issue this week.
Sanchez said the cameraman
later apologized for helping cre-
ate the controversy, but added
even though his actions were not
respectful, he can laugh about
it two years later.
I think he mightve known in
the back of his mind there was
still a camera on him, but I dont
blame him, tight end Dustin
Keller said. As long as that hot
dog was delicious, get another
one, you know? He played well in
that game andwe wonthat game,
so have another. We might get
him one in the first quarter.
Reliving the frankfurter fiasco
comes a week after Sanchez had
toapologizeagainfor another mi-
nor infraction committed in his
rookie season. Two weeks after
that Raiders game, Sanchez
raised lots of eyebrows in a post-
game news conference following
a loss to Jacksonville when he
pulled out a sheet of paper and
read off a list of prepared re-
marks.
Two weeks in a row, one was
the press conference reminder
and this one is the no eating on
the sidelines reminder, so Ill
keep the food off the field, he
said.

WASHINGTONChien-
Ming Wang had a strong finish
to his comeback fromshoulder
surgery and drove in a run with
his first career hit to lead the
Washington Nationals over
Atlanta 4-1Saturday and stall
the Braves wild-card run.
Atlanta lost for the16th time
in its last 26 games and re-
mained two games ahead of St.
Louis for the NL wild card with
four games left.
Making his 11th start since
returning froma two-year layoff,
Wang (4-3) allowed one run and
four hits in six innings and low-
ered his ERAto 4.04. He struck
out four and walked none.
Wangs RBI single off Brandon
Beachy (7-3) capped a three-run
fourth that put the Nationals
ahead 4-0. He had been 0 for 32
at the plate in his career.
Cardinals 2, Cubs1
ST. LOUIS The Cardinals
kept their faint wild-card hopes
alive when Carlos Marmol
forced home the tying run with a
bases-loaded walk to Ryan The-
riot with two outs in the ninth
inning and followed with a
game-ending wild pitch, giving
St. Louis a 2-1victory over the
Chicago Cubs on Saturday.
After losing consecutive
games to the NewYork Mets
and Cubs, the Cardinals began
the day three games back of the
wild-card leading Atlanta
Braves. St. Louis plays the Cubs
again Sunday, then closes with
three games at Houston.
Jason Motte (5-2) got two
outs for the win when St. Louis
ended a string of 15 consecutive
scoreless innings.
Mets 2, Phillies1, 1st game
Mets 6, Phillies 3, 2nd game
NEWYORK(AP) With
nothing left to play for in the
regular season, the Philadelphia
Phillies are playing as if they
have nothing left.
Hunter Pence dropped a deep
fly ball for an error that led to
five unearned runs, and the New
York completed a doubleheader
sweep with a 6-3 victory Sat-
urday night that handed the NL
East champions their eighth
straight defeat.
Having already secured home-
field advantage throughout the
postseason, the sluggish Phillies
remained winless since clinch-
ing their fifth consecutive divi-
sion title last Saturday. The
losing streak is their longest
since an eight-game skid late in
the 2000 season, when they
finished 65-97 and last in the NL
East under manager Terry Fran-
cona.
In the afternoon opener, R.A.
Dickey took a no-hit bid into the
seventh inning and David
Wright hit a tiebreaking double
in the eighth as NewYork won
2-1.
Brewers 6, Marlins 4
MILWAUKEEPinch-hitter
Corey Hart had a go-ahead,
two-run double in the seventh
inning, and the Milwaukee
Brewers rallied fromthree def-
icits to beat Florida 6-4 Saturday
night and win their seventh
straight against the Marlins.
John Axford converted his
45th save, a franchise record,
and the NL Central champions
came back fromdeficits of 1-0,
3-2 and 4-3.
Zack Greinke labored through
five innings and was in line for
his first loss at Miller Park in14
starts this year. He is 10-0 at
home, with the Brewers winning
the games in which he didnt get
a decision.

Josh Harrison had four hits on

Rays a four-run lead. Damons
third hit of the game came
after shortstop Mike McCoy

He retired 13 of his last 14
batters but the Tigers werent

CHICAGO Alex Rios and
Brent Morel homered to back
John Danks and lead the White
Sox over the Kansas City Roy-

Danks (8-12) improved to 5-0
in 12 starts against the Royals,
allowing three runs and six hits
in 7 1-3 innings.
Rangers 7, Mariners 3
ARLINGTON, Texas
Seattle ace Felix Hernandez
was forced out of the game
when he took a line drive off
his right forearm during the
Rangers six-run fourth inning
Saturday, and Texas used a
patchwork lineup to beat the
Mariners 7-3 one day after it
clinched the AL West title.
The Rangers had already
scored four times in the fourth
when Hernandez (14-14) was
struck by Michael Youngs
liner. The reigning AL Cy
Young Award winner fell to the
ground as the ball caromed
toward third base for a single.
Hernandez was attended to
by a team trainer, and was soon
walking to the dugout, grimac-

day in his final start of the
season.

Duncan drove in three runs in

The Indians also won the
opener 8-2 behind Duncan,
who hit a two-run single with
two out in the first and a tie-
breaking sacrifice fly in Cleve-

Duncans two-run single off

LOUDON, N.H. One and
done? Title hopes up in smoke?
For the Chase drivers whoranout
of gas or good luck in the playoff
opener, they have kept the faith
that their championship pursuits
arent spoiled because of a bad
start.
But it doesnt help.
Denny Hamlin, inconsistent all
season, is stuck in 12th place and
already 41 points behind leader
Kevin Harvick. He struggled all
day in the Chase for the Sprint
Cup championship kickoff last
week at Chicagoland and stag-
gered to a 31st-place finish.
Matt Kenseth (10th) and Jeff
Gordon(11th) are aheadof himin
the standings, yet Gordon is only
25 points out of first. Not an envi-
ableposition, but certainlynorea-
sontopanicnot withnineraces
left starting Sunday at New
Hampshire Motor Speedway.
Hamlin, though, could find his
championship push extinguished
with a similar poor run in the No.

Friday and qualified 28th, the
worst start among the 12 Chase
drivers.
Werestrugglingright nowjust
to get consistency and I cant pin-
point one particular place where
we need to work, Hamlin said.
Someone asked me where we
lackedandI dont know. Its some-
thing different every two to three
weeks. Its painful at this mo-
ment.
A year ago, Hamlin was on the
brink of his first championship
heading into the finale at Home-
stead. Hamlin entered the race
leading the standings only to spin
out and slide through the grass to
derail his effort and pave the way
for Jimmie Johnson to win the ti-
tle for a fifth straight season.
For Hamlin, it wasnt just a bit-
ter endtothe seasonit seemed
to set the tone for this one.
He had only one top 10 in the
first eight races. While he did get
hot late, he had only one victory
and qualified for the Chase with a
wild card.
I dont think anyone has huge
expectations for us this Chase,
Hamlin said. I personally do and
still do. I think that weve really
underachieved quite a bit, so you
get frustrated.
Kenseth and Gordon certainly
understandHamlins frustrations.
Unlike Hamlin, Gordon and Ken-
seth had two of the cars to beat
last week until they ran out of gas
inafinishdecidedonfuel mileage.
Because Gordon and Kenseth
have been so steady all season
(each driver has multiple victo-
ries), its easier to envision their
cars getting back on a roll Sunday
andmakingachargeupthestand-
ings.
Kenseth ran out of gas at the
endandwaspushedacrossthefin-
ish line by JJ Yeley. NASCAR

legal anddroppedKensethto21st

Kensethsaidits tooearlyinthe
Chase to worry about one tough
finish.
Its not likethereis aHail Mary
you can throw, he said, but its
not time to throwit anyway.
HarvickleadsChicagolandwin-
ner Tony Stewart by sevenpoints.
Seven drivers are 10 to 20 points
the leader, including Johnson.
Its just too early to be overly
concerned, Johnson said.
He should know.
Johnson has plowed out of hor-
rible Chase debuts to storm to-
ward the championship. He
opened the 2006 Chase with a
39th-place finish, then used five
straight top-two finishes (yes, top
two) to win his first champion-
ship. He was 25th last year in the
opener which sent him into the
second Chase race down 26
points. So every driver gets at
least one finish they can toss out
over the10pressure-packedraces.
The hard thing is, one day can
make or breakyour inthe Chase,
Stewart said. But it doesnt de-
fine what your organization is
about because of one good or bad
day.
Two great results dont define
the Chase, either. Greg Biffle won
the first two Chase races in 2008,
but had only two other top fives
and finished third in the stand-
ings. It can take four or five races
before the true contenders
emerge.
Hamlin wants to race his way
back into contention. He is at a
terrific track for the secondround
of the Chase. His 7.2 average fin-
ish is best among active drivers.
Up ahead for Hamlin is Martins-
ville (four wins), Texas (swept
last season) and Homestead
(2009 victory).
He called last week a night-
mare-type race for us.
Hamlin, who drives for Joe
Gibbs Racing, knows any chance
at salvaging his season rides on
NewHampshire.
We still have a shot if we get
just consistent andfindtheconsis-
tency that we had last year, he
said.

moving Carl Crawford to the sec-

Gonzalez to fifth with Dustin Pe-

But it all unraveled in a span of
six batters in the second.
A disappointing game, Fran-
cona said. We didnt finish a cou-
ple of plays, and they made us
pay.
With runners on first and sec-
ond, shortstop Marco Scutaro
went deep into the hole to field
Andruw Jones grounder. He
seemed to have a chance to get
the lead runner at third base but
stumbled slightly and had to
throw across his body to second.
His throw was late, leaving the
bases loaded.
Montero then hit a sharp
grounder out of Scutaros reach
for the first run. Martin followed
with a sinking liner to left field
that hit off the glove of a sliding
Crawford for two more runs.
I just tried to make a play at it.
Didnt make it, Crawford said.
Jeter, whose batting average is
up to .297 after a first-half slump,
followed with a drive into the

fore the game, the Yankees cap-
tain carried the bat Roger Maris
used to hit his 61st homer onto
the field as part of 50th anniver-
sary ceremony.
Lester gave up a two-out, two-
run double to Montero in the
third and was done, having given
upeight runs. After Lester retired
his first four batters, the Yankees
were 8 for 12 against him.

HAZLETON Just when it
seemed Tunkhannock, after
three-and-a-half quarters of play-
ing catch-up, finally had Hazleton
Area where it wanted Saturday
night, the Cougars did exactly
what it had done all game some-
how pull a third-down conversion
out of thin air.
After penalties positioned the
Cougars into a first-and-25 within
their own 3-yard line, they found
themselves in a third-and-6 situa-
tion deep into their own territory.
Quarterback Chad Hoffman

over the Tunkhannock in a Wyom-
ing Valley Conference interdivi-
sional game.
(Campbells run) was the play
of the game, said Hazleton Area
coach Jim Drumheller, whose
team improved to 2-2. Its what
kept us alive.
Tunkhannock (0-4) matched
HazletonAreapunch-for-punchfor
four rounds, responding to each of
the Cougars first four touchdowns
with one of its own.
After aHazletonAreastopat the

hannock responded in fashion.
The Tigers utilized their patented
misdirection kick return, handing
the ball off to Zack Edmonson for
an 84-yard touchdown to open the
half. A botched snap on the extra
point kept the Tigers down 14-13.
Tunkhannock had one final at-
tempt at matching Hazleton Area

ATLANTA Aaron Baddeley
wanted to make a good impres-
sion on Greg Norman with hopes
of being pickedfor the Presidents
Cup.
He wound up impressing a lot
of people Saturday in the Tour
Championship.
Baddeley holed out for eagle
onthe fourthhole, andthenlit up
the back nine of East Lake with
four straight birdies on his way to
a 6-under 64 that put him atop
the leaderboard with Hunter Ma-
han.
Mahan holed a birdie putt just
over 20feet onthe par-318thfor a
66.
They were at 9-under 201, both
poised to capture a meaningful
cup even if it isnt the same
one.
Mahan is No. 21 in the FedEx
Cup and didnt think he had a
chance at the $10 million prize at
the start of the week.
Of the top five players in the
standings, however, only Luke
Donald remains in serious con-
tention, and Mahan learned
when he finished his round that
he was projected to win golfs
richest prize.
I honestly didnt think that
was a possibility, Mahan said.
The Tour Championship sud-
denly is loaded with possibilities.
Jason Day recovered from a
ragged start and had a 69, leaving
himonly two shots back. The 23-
year-old Australian was tied with
K.J. Choi, whoalsostartedpoorly
and shot 70.
Donald, the world No. 1 who
still can add his name to the pres-
tigious list of players to have cap-
tured the FedEx Cup, had a 70
and was only three shots behind.
Bill Haas, who had a chance to
make the Presidents Cup team
last week until a 42 on the back
nine at Cog Hill, was among
those tied for the lead until the fi-
nal twoholes. He went bunker-to-
bunker on the 17th and had to
scramble for bogey, and then hit
his tee shot on the 18th into the
crowd, missed a 4-foot putt and
made double bogey.
Haas was followed by his fa-
ther, Jay Haas, an assistant cap-
tain for the Presidents Cup. He
had to settle for a 69 and was so
steamed that he refused requests
for interviews.
Ten players were separated by
five shots the marginby which
Baddeley trailed going into the fi-
nal round and the group in-
cludes Phil Mickelson, who won
this event twoyears ago. He hada
67 and was only four shots be-
hind.
I feel like the first three
rounds, I had three possibilities
of 63, 64 that I turned into 68,
69, Mickelson said. If I can just
not do that and keep it where I
feel the round should be, I think I
can make a run tomorrow.
The pressure is building on so
many fronts going into Sunday,
and while its easy to focus on the
$10 million to the winner of the
FedEx Cup $9 million of that
in cash for some its a cup that
doesnt pay anything.
Baddeley, a winner at Riviera
early in the year, grew up in Mel-
bourne and desperately wants to
be part of his first Presidents Cup
team at Royal Melbourne. He is
among three Australians Rob-
ert Allenby and John Senden are
the others under consideration
for two of Normans picks. They
will be announced Tuesday.
Baddeley spoke to Norman at
the start of the week and knew
the Shark would be watching. It
didnt make Baddeley nervous, it
made him determined.
For me, its a motivator, Bad-
deley said. I want to play good. I
want to be on that team, so I
knewI hadto play well this week.
Its time to bear down. I got some
good work done on Tuesday and
Wednesday, so I was ready for
Thursday.
Most of that practice time was
spent on putting. Baddeley is
among the best ingolf, thoughhe
felt something was missing. He
worked on getting the club more
balanced, paying particular at-
tention to his right hand on the
putter. He seems to have figured
it out, making a 35-foot putt on
No. 7, and a pair of 20-footers on
the 14th and 15th.

A brown bullhead catfish
caught in Carbon Countys
Beltzville Lake has been
certified as a Pennsylvania
state record for that species
by the Pennsylvania Fish
and Boat Commission
(PFBC).
Ian Radler of Palmerton,
Carbon County, caught the
fish on the evening of Aug.
22. Radler was fishing for
catfish near the Trachsville
Bridge using cut bait. More
information and pictures

This brown bullhead catfish, caught by Ian Radler of
Palmerton, has been certified as a state-record catch.
Its been a trying year for people and wild-
life. A wet spring and summer made it diffi-
cult on turkey and ruffed grouse poults that
hatched into the cool, damp conditions. The
seemingly constant rains of the summer were
frustrating to area farmers trying to get crops
planted in a timely manner and make hay lat-
er in the season.
And most recently, the flooding that oc-
curred earlier this month devastated many
and disrupted all of our lives.
It will be good to get back to a sense of nor-
malcy, and hunting season is one way to do
just that.
Things will begin to get back to normal
next Saturday, Oct. 1 when archery season
opens.
Hunters might find conditions a little diffi-
cult early in the season as the above normal
rainfall has kept vegetation thick and lush.
But the impact is only temporary as archery
season is one of the few hunting seasons that
is better at the end than in the beginning. The
season runs until Nov. 12, giving archery hun-
ters plenty of time in the woods after the leav-
es start falling and the rut swings into full
gear.
Soon after the start of archery season, sev-
eral youth seasons open up for pheasant, rab-
bit , rabbit and squirrel. The early seasons all
open on Oct. 8 and continue until Oct. 15 for
junior hunters only.
The regular small game season for all li-
censed hunters kicks off with squirrel and
grouse on Oct. 15 followed by pheasant and
rabbit on Oct. 22. All of the fall small game
seasons continue to Nov. 26.

When floodwaters raged through two of the
Pennsylvania Game Commissions game farms in
Lycoming County earlier this month, they almost
swept away the upcoming pheasant hunting sea-
son.
Approximately 40,000 pheasants from the Loyal-
sock and Northcentral game farms either escaped
or perished in the high water. Considering the
agency planned on releasing 100,000 pheasants
this hunting season, the loss is significant.
Still, there is one thing that
the flood waters didnt sweep
away.
Hope.
As PGC personnel worked
around the clock to recapture
pheasants and rebuild pens, the
agency is optimistic that it can
accomplish the increased pro-
duction goal of 200,000 birds for
next fall.
I can assure you our goal is
still the same go back to full
production next fall, said Bob
Boyd, assistant director of the
Bureau of Wildlife Management. Well still main-
tain a breeding flock to produce 200,000 distribu-
tion next fall.
Its a welcome prognosis after the floodwaters
raged through pheasant pens at both facilities,
sweeping away fences, netting, posts and birds.
There are reports of dead pheasants being found
five miles downstream from the farms, and initial
estimates indicated that up to 40,000 birds from
the agencys total production of 105,000 were
gone.
Boyd said he is still compiling a damage esti-
mate and report to submit to the PGC board. He
said the floodwaters at both farms swept through
the middle of several field pens large enclosures
over agricultural fields where pheasants intended
to be released this fall are kept. As a result, fences
were ripped open and while some pheasants did
drown more escaped.
Boyd said there are so many pheasants out at
the Loyalsock Game Farm that PGC crews will
probably be recapturing them for months. At the
Northcentral Game Farm near Williamsport, the
situation is even worse.
We had 19,000 there, and we lost most of them.
All of them got out, Boyd said, adding that only
1,000 had been caught as of Wednesday but an
unknown number had drowned.
The odors around the farms still persist, he
said.
The recapture figures increase
daily because PGC staff is em-
ploying a number of techniques
to get the birds back. Boyd said
numbers of escaped pheasants are
coming back to the pens and to
collect them, holes are cut in the
fences with a funnel opening,
allowing the birds to enter. The
funnel prevents the birds from
leaving the pen, he said.
Its working. We had pens that
were roosters only, and now there
are hens in there, too, Boyd said.
Live traps are also placed
throughout the area surrounding each farm and a
few pheasants are being caught that way as well.
Since the floodwaters damaged the middle of the
pens, PGC personnel are utilizing a third recapture
technique by driving escaped pheasants into the
corners of the pens and catching them that way.
Despite the efforts, Boyd said the work cant go
on indefinitely.
The longer it goes, the more the pheasants
disperse, he said. And they get smarter.
And PGC staff is also tasked with the job of
repairing and rebuilding the numerous structures
damaged by the flood.
The debris and pressure of the water separated
a lot of the fencing at the seams. Some pens are
completely gone, Boyd said. Theres a lot of
cleanup work to do as well.
Half of the pens at the Loyalsock facility escaped
flood damage, while Boyd said all of the enclosed
fields at the Northcentral farm were affected.
At that farm, the water went through every
square inch, he said.
On a positive note, once the pheasants are re-
leased this hunting season, the pens wont be
needed again until late June, when next years
birds come out of the brooder houses.
Also, Boyd said the hatchery and brooder facil-
ities at the farms werent damaged, which means
the PGC can resume production next spring.
Thats the good news about the flood, he said.
Still, with a potential loss of 40 percent of the
total pheasant production, the agency will be
forced to alter this years pheasant allocations.
Boyd said the new allocation figures for the state
will be released in the near future, but needless to
say it will be lower.
The timing of this event a month before the
stocking starts, Ive never seen anything like this
before, he said. Hunters have experienced half
production since 2005. Now, were going to have to
take a step back even further.
Albeit temporarily.
This isnt insurmountable, Boyd added. Next
year well return the program to what it was before.
Two of the Pennsylvania Game Commissions game farms in Lycoming County lost
most of their pheasant population that was being bred for hunting season.

One avenue the PGC will pursue to get its pheasant

is rearing more chicks. Boyd said the agency will see
how many eggs it can obtain and he plans on having
all their incubators full next spring.

A little warm up
will be heading
our way over the
next few days.
But with that
comes a few
showers. Today
will be a mostly
cloudy day with
a passing show-
er, but the high
will be around
77. We will drop
into the mid 60s
Sunday night
with cloudy
skies. Monday
will bring mostly
cloudy skies and
a high of 78 with
a chance of rain.
For Tuesday,
showers remain
in the forecast
with cloudy skies
and a high of 76.
- Michelle Rotella
NATIONAL FORECAST: A frontal boundary draped along the East Coast will promote cloudy condi-
tions and a chance of thunderstorms for much of the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast. Another system
over the Midwest will be responsible for showers and thunderstorms from the Great Lakes and most
of the Mississippi River Valley.

BUSINESS S E C T I O N D
timesleader.com
MOST FINANCIAL
choices dont come
with a do-over, espe-
cially when taxes and
investing are con-
cerned. But investors
who now regret con-
verting their IRAs
(individual retirement accounts) to
Roth IRAs, can reverse this decision by
Oct. 17.
Before I dive into the details, lets get
everyone up to speed. A traditional IRA
is a retirement account you open
through a bank or investment company
that generally provides a tax break
today, but requires you to pay taxes on
the money when you take it out in
retirement.
A Roth is funded with after-tax dol-
lars with the big plus of taking that
money out tax-free upon retirement.
When financial experts look into
their crystal balls, the majority see
higher tax rates in the future, which
makes it more attractive to pay tax on
investments now, at what are consid-
ered to be relatively low tax rates, than
at potentially sky-high rates in the
future. So the IRS gives investors the
option to convert their traditional IRA
assets into Roth IRA assets by paying
the taxes today instead of years down
the road. (Ive heard the government
could use the money.)
The year 2010 was a big one for
conversions because the rules changed
to allow anyone to perform this trick.
Before, anyone who made more than
$100,000 was out of luck. As a special
bonus, savers who converted their IRA
to a Roth in 2010 were given two years
to pay the taxes owed, easing the bur-
den of finding a chunk of change for
Uncle Sam.
But that good deal turned out not to
be the best deal, considering this sum-
mers market slump. Say someone
owes taxes on a $50,000 IRA because
they converted it to a Roth. Now, be-
cause of market declines, their port-
folio is worth only $40,000. Theyre
probably thinking Gee, wish I timed
that better.
This is where the do-over comes in.
With whats known as a recharacter-
ization, savers can reverse the IRA
switcheroo, turning their recently
converted Roth IRA back to a tradition-
al IRA.
Why pay the IRS based on a
$50,000 conversion when youre not
going to get the benefit of that for a
number of years because (the account)
is depressed so much in value? ex-
plained Damian Winther, a certified
financial planner in Edina, Minn.
In addition to investors bummed that
they owe tax on a now-deflated port-
folio, the strategy appeals to individu-
als who recently entered a lower tax
bracket, perhaps due to a job loss. Why
not reverse the conversion and recon-
vert the money, paying tax at their new
lower tax rate?
Of course if youve fallen on hard
times, it can be tough to scrape togeth-
er money to pay the tax. Paying tax out
of the IRA balance is a no-no because
youll be taxed on the full amount and
if youre younger than age 59.5, youd
be penalized for taking an early with-
drawal on the money used to pay for
taxes. It doesnt make any sense, said
Bloomington, Minn., certified financial
planner Jon Meyer.
There is a limit to how often you can
employ this strategy. You must wait at
least 30 days, or the following year
whichever is later before taking
assets you just recharacterized and
turning them into a Roth again. That
means you risk recharacterizing and
then having the market skyrocket,
making a new conversion more expen-
sive.
Given the markets recent correction,
now may be a good time to consider a
conversion from an IRA to a Roth. Get
the taxes out of the way today on a
smaller pot of money and watch it
grow tax-free until you withdraw the
funds tax-free, or decide to pass the
money to your heirs. If the market
heads further south, or you fall into a
lower tax bracket, you have until next
October for your mulligan.

ARE YOU READY for
some football?
I am.
But even more than
football, Im ready for
the awesome beer and
food deals that accom-
pany the games.
After the first two weeks of NFL
action, and now with four Saturdays of
college football games on the books, its
time to take a look at what area bars
offer to entice patrons on game day(s).
At Luckys Sporthouse in Wilkes-
Barre Township, the offers are plentiful.
Saturdays and Sundays from noon to
close and Mondays from 8 p.m. to close
the joint has $4 full size appetizers
including Lucky Chips, nachos, person-
al pizza, chili cheese fries, pizza loaded
dries and pierogies. There are also beer
specials including four 16-ounce alumi-
num bottles of Miller Lite and Coors
Lite for $10 and Bud light pints are
$1.50 all day Saturday and Sunday and
until midnight Monday. You can mix
and match the bottles in the four for
$10 deal.
With 30 big screen televisions,
theres no bad seat in the house. Plus
enter weekly to win an NFL team jer-
sey that will be given away during
halftime of every Monday night football
game. You must be present to win.
Also on Sunday only if you purchase
an18 Pizza to go you get a free order
of Lucky Chips.
The NFL Sunday ticket is popular as
many local bars now offer it .The fea-
ture allows bars to broadcast multiple
games on multiple televisions.
The following bars all offer it in
addition to specials:
Rox Bar and Grill in Plymouth has
$2 Miller Lite bottles all day Sunday.
The River Grille in Plains Town-
ship has $1.50 Miller Lite drafts and
free popcorn on Sundays.
Tommyboys in Nanticoke offers
$1.50 Coors Lights all day Sunday.
Robs Pub and Grub in Larksville
has 30 cent wings and pierogies, $1
domestic beer drafts and $2 bottles on
Sundays.
Hunns West Side Caf in Luzerne
has 35 cent wings on Monday nights
and $2 Miller Lite bottles from 9 to 11.
They also offer $2 domestic bottles and
$1.50 domestic drafts on Sundays from
3 to 5.
These bars dont have the Sunday
Ticket but still offer decent deals and
still have football on the tube:
Senunas in downtown Wilkes-
Barre has $2 Miller Lite pints from 5 to
midnight on Mondays.
Stans Caf in Wilkes-Barre has 18
clams for $3.95 and Bud Light pints for
$1.50 on Sundays.
On Monday nights, Grandaddys in
Luzerne has a dozen wings for $4 and
8-ounce Miller Lite drafts for $1.
Still bar related, but not football
related, Bart & Urbys in Wilkes-Barre
is showing its appreciation for all fire
and police department members, res-
cue workers, EMA and Red Cross em-
ployees and anyone else who played a
role in helping others during the flood-
ing by offering them a 25 percent din-
ing discount through Wednesday. Call
970-9570 for details.
With all the giving and generosity
shown the past week, heres another
way to give. The Red Cross is holding
blood drives throughout the region
including one at the Dallas American
Legion, 730 Memorial Highway, Dallas
on Monday from noon to 6 p.m., anoth-
er at the American Legion Post 644,
259 Shoemaker St., Swoyersville, on
Tuesday from noon to 6 p.m. and an-
other Thursday from10:30 a.m. to 4:30
p.m. at Misericordia Universitys In-
salaco Center in Dallas Township.
Every one that gives blood in Sep-
tember will get a coupon good for a
$12.99 oil change and a free tire rota-
tion at area Monro Muffler and Brake
locations. Call 1-800-RED-CROSS to
schedule an appointment and to learn
where other blood drives will be held.

DALLAS A national magazine has
named local food preparer Metz Culi-
nary Management 18th on its top 50 list
of food contract management compa-
nies.
In its September issue, Food Manage-
ment magazine ranks the top 50 compa-
nies, 23 of which reported annual reve-
nues last year of $100 million or more.
Metz was among that group for the first
time ever reporting $109 million in reve-
nue lat year, an increase of $11 million
from 2009 figures.
The company once known as Metz &
Associates rebranded itself in March
with the new name to better tell clients
what it offers. Along with the newname
comes the latest honor from Food Man-
agement magazine.
Last years Top 50 list placed Metz at
22nd.
MaureenGallagher, a Metz spokeswo-
man, said the increase in positions and
revenues is thanks to the companys
commitment to change the way cafete-
ria dining looks.
Creating the kinds of social, casual
dining environment people look for to-
day is very important. We are working
with a restaurant mind-set in the non-
commercial side, said Jeffrey C. Metz,
president and chief executive officer of
Metz. Locally, Metz operates Luckys

the company17 years ago, views the din-

youre in a hospital or school cafe.
The companys 130 clients and hun-
dreds of thousands of diners seem to be
buying into the premise as the company,
once heavily situated in Pennsylvania
and New Jersey, has now expanded into
eight more states.
During the announcement in March
that the company was rebranding itself
witha newname andlogo, Jeff Metz told
those gathered in the gymnasiumon the
Penn State Hazleton campus that the
company had an ambitious goal of dou-
bling sales revenues by 2020. If recent
years growth are any indication, that
goal is not so far-fetched.
According to the company, Metz saw
sales rise 60 percent since 2006.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. Brandon Gonzales has been carrying his black Pantech cell-
phone with the slide-out keyboard for two years. Brandon is 12. And hes certainly not
unusual. Over the last decade, the age of kids packing their first cellphone has been dialing
back younger and younger.This month, as millions of students swarmback to school, its
estimated that more than 75 percent of all U.S. teens have a cellphone.
And tweens kids ages 9 to 12
may be the fastest-growing cell-
phone market out there.
The age a child gets a first cell-
phone is getting progressively
younger. Parents want to be in touch
with their kids, said John Breyault,
whoauthoredanewguideontweens
and cellphones for the National Con-
sumers League in Washington, D.C.
For Brandon, a skateboarding
tween, having a cellphone is no big
deal. Even though he almost doesnt
know anyone who doesnt have
one, Brandon said hes not much of
a serial texter and only makes occa-
sional calls.
Picking up Brandon outside his
middle school last week, his mother,
Elizabeth Gonzales, said he got his
first phone at 10 for safety reasons.
Even when hes outside with friends
in their midtown Sacramento neigh-
borhood, she likes knowing Brandon
can call home in any emergency. It
gives me peace of mind, Gonzales
said.
Theres plenty of debate over what
age kids should get their first cell-
phone. If youre contemplating the
decision, here are some tips fromthe
National Consumers League:
Know the answers
Before heading to the nearest cell-
phone store, ask yourself some basic
questions:
Why does my child need a cell-
phone? Will it be used mainly for
emergencies or keeping in touch
with parents/family? Should it be
usedfor games, Internet access, text-
ing/chatting with friends?
Does my tween lose things of-
ten? Can he/she be trusted to care
for a phone?
HowmuchdoI want tospendon
the phone itself and its monthly ser-
vice? Is my tween mature enough to
keep texting/calling/data use with-
in the contract limits?
Keeping those questions in mind
can help you stay focused when
your tween inevitably starts to drool
over phones that may not fit ... your
needs, the National Consumers
League notes in its online guide.
(For a free copy, go to http://
www.nclnet.org/technology.)
Have the talk
Discuss the dangers of sexting
(sending sexually explicit photos by
cellphone) and cyberbullying (send-
ing intimidating, harassing messag-
es). Be sure your kids know not to
answer calls from unknown num-
bers and to never share their cell
number with people they dont
know, especially online.
And, while it may sound silly, ex-
plain the risks of texting while bicy-
cling.

NEW YORK If youre prone
to mistyping email addresses,
heres a new thing to worry
about: you could be a target for
spammers trying to sell you a
dream vacation or a diet product
by pretending to be one of your
friends or colleagues.
Ina clever twist onspam, some
websites with names that are
confusingly similar to legitimate
sites have been set up to reply to
any mail sent to them. The re-
sponses are framed as out-of-of-
fice replies, but sneak in men-
tions of a new product or service
you should try.
Heres a real-life example of
how it works: An Associated
Press reporter accidentally sent a
message to a verizonwireless-
.co address insteadof the proper
.com and got this response, os-
tensibly from his contact tom:
I amout of office right nowon
a my (sic) dream vacation and
will get back to you when I re-
turn. If you dont hear from me,
my assistant should contact you
shortly. You should check this
site to see how I scored the best
travel deal for my trip.
Thats followed by a link to a
site that advertises luxury re-
sorts. Presumably, the owner of
verizonwireless.co makes money
when someone clicks through to
any of the resort sites.
Only a handful of sites were set
up to produce the autoreplies
tracked by the AP, and they stop-
ped after the APs inquiries. But
there are hundreds of thousands
of sites out there that couldbe set
up to reply to Mr. and Mrs. But-
terfingers, with names that are
slight variations of major sites
like yaoo instead of yahoo.
Theyve been registered by so-
called typo-squatters, whose
goal is to make money from ad-
vertising as people accidentally
visit the sites after mistyping an
address in their Web browser.
If more typo-squatting sites
start autoreplying, that could be
particular problem for Internet
mailing lists. If a participant
mistypes his or her address when
joining a mailing list, every mess-
age to the list could get a re-
sponse froma typo-squatter. This
infestation is already apparent on
a few Internet mailing lists, in-
cluding one about Django, a free
software package, and one for
Communist University, a group
based in Johannesburg, South
Africa.
Tom Pica, a spokesman for Ve-
rizon Wireless, said the compa-
nys legal department is looking
at the matter and intends to pur-
sue the owner of verizonwire-
less.co. Patrick Flaherty, a law-
yer for Verizon, saidthe company
will probably try to seize the do-
main name through legal action.
Its unclear who owns verizon-
wireless.co and the page with the
links. Their address registration
data is masked.
Verizon Communications Inc.,
which controls Verizon Wireless,
has gone after typo-squatters be-
fore. In 2008 it won a $33.1 mil-
lion judgment against OnlineN-
IC, a SanFrancisco-basedcompa-
ny that according to Verizon had
registered 663 domain names
like myverizionwireless.com.
The phone number given in
the spam messages goes to the
online fax account of a real-estate
broker in Honolulu. She said she
first learned the number was in-
cluded in the spam when asked
by an AP reporter.
The mailing address in the
spamgoes to an apartment build-
ing in Encino, Calif. The messag-
es dont include an apartment
number.
Internet searches revealed that
at least two other typo-squatting
sites have produced auto-replies:
yaoo.es and livingdeadolls.com.
One response from the latter site
said Imon sick leave because of
some news from my Dr., please
check out this diet product he
recommended.
Unwanted out-of-office spam
isnt the only reason to be careful
about typing email addresses. A
small security firm recently re-
ported setting up 30 Web ad-
dresses, with names similar to
those of major corporations, and
saving every email that came in
over six months. The firm, Godai
Group, ended up with 120,000
emails, withcontents that includ-
ed trade secrets and network
usernames and passwords.

Someone selling a home is more
likely to pay a full real estate com-
mission today than during the
housing boom, when discounts
ruled and most properties sold
quickly.
Commissions have steadily in-
creased in recent years, despite a
rash of foreclosures and falling
home values that have left sellers
with little spare cash to pay a bro-
ker.
The average commission na-
tionally at year-end 2010 was 5.40
percent, up from 5.04 percent in
2005, according to Real Trends, a
publishingandconsultingcompa-
ny basedinCastle Rock, Colo.
Commissions are negotiable,
but thestandardis6percent of the
sale price. The seller usually pays
the fee, which is split evenly be-
tween the agents on both sides of
the deal.
Inthe housingfrenzyof 2000to
2005, sellers often questioned the
value of agents. The number of
brokersballooned, andthecompe-
tition for listings led some agents
to cut commissions below 6 per-
cent.
But when the housing market
soured beginning in 2006, agents
couldnt leave the profession fast
enough, and it became much har-
der to sell homes. Agents say sell-
ers have since grown more appre-
ciative of what they do.
Sellers are very happy to pay
thefull commissions, eventhough
theyre getting less money for
theirhomes,saidClaireSheresof

MIAMI More than a dozen
farmworkers want Burger King
and Subway to pay back wages
theysaythecompanies owethem
under a deal the chains made
with a Florida farmworker advo-
cacy group, according to a law-
suit filed on behalf of the workers
by the Migrant Farmworker Jus-
tice Project.
The 2008 agreement between
the food companies and the Coa-
lition of Immokalee Workers was
devised to help boost wages for
Florida tomato pickers, whose
backbreaking labor provides
muchof the nations winter toma-
to crop. The companies were
among several fast-food chains,
including Taco Bell and McDo-
nalds, which agreed to pay a pen-
ny more per pound for their to-
matoes. The money was to be
passed along to the workers by
their employers: Florida tomato
growers.
But there was a catch. The
growers balked at the deal until
last November, meaning the
companies had no mechanism
for passing on the extra money.
In the lawsuit filed Wednesday
inMiami-Dade Circuit Court, the
16 workers are asking for unspec-
ified wages based on the number
of tomatoes they picked that
were bought by Burger King and
Subway.
Their attorney Greg Schell
says now that the growers are on
board, it should be simple for the
chains to provide back pay from
2008, or to explain why they
dont owe the money. But he says
the companies have refused to
discuss the issue. He said he is al-
so planning to file suit against
several other fast-food chains.
Ive been going five months
and have yet to get an answer,
Schell said.
Miami-based Burger King
Corp. said in a statement Thurs-
day it had yet to see the lawsuit
and could not comment. Subway
did not immediately return calls
for comment.
Thecoalition, whichis not con-
nected to the Justice Project,
does not support the lawsuit.
The coalition said the compa-
nies had put the money in escrow
until the growers were willing to
participate in the deal. On Thurs-
day, the group provided copies of
a 2011 farmworker pay stub to
The Associated Press showing
larger than normal bonus distri-
butions from McDonalds and
Subway it said represented the
money accrued in the escrow ac-
counts.
Julia Perkins of the coalition
said some current workers have
received the escrowfunds even if
they werent part of the past har-
vests, but she said it was unreal-
istic to try and track down work-
ers from several seasons ago,
many of whom have returned to
Mexico and other countries.
The coalition gained atten-
tionin2005 whenit first persuad-
ed Taco Bell owner Yum! Brands
to pay more for its tomatoes fol-
lowing a successful student-led
boycott of the chain. Other com-
panies, including McDonalds,
eventually followed. Such victo-
ries were initially symbolic, as
the chains only bought a small
portion of the tomatoes harvest-
ed in Florida and because of the
growers lack of participation.
But the Coalition has since
broadened its campaign to in-
clude food service and grocery
store suppliers, signing a deal
with Whole Foods in 2008,
among other companies.

LOS ANGELES Music and
media companies are pinning
fresh hopes for reviving their
businesses on a small ribbon that
Facebook has begun putting on
user profiles called the ticker.
The new, slim stream of up-
dates automatically lists users
activity on a range of apps made
for listening to music, watching
movies, reading news and play-
ing games after users consent to
the continuous sharing just once.
Clicking on your friends items
in the ticker can lead to automat-
ically being signed up for free
trials on services such as music
plans Spotify and Rhapsody,
many of which may eventually
ask for a monthly fee.
While the new feature is billed
as a way of fencing off a huge vol-
ume of information on what
youre doing, for the businesses
involved, this passivewayof shar-
ing is a giant viral marketing ma-
chine.
Axel Dauchez, the chief execu-
tive of music subscriptionservice
Deezer, which has 1.4 million
paying customers in France and
the U.K., said the integration
withFacebookis key toits planto
roll out in more than 130 coun-
tries other than the U.S. over the
next several weeks.
Facebook users who click on
links of songs that friends are
playing on Deezer are automati-
cally signed up for a two-week
trial with accounts that use their
Facebook preferences. Then they
are able to listen to their friends
picks in real time or later at their
convenience.
Dauchez said he hopes the sys-
tem spawns revolution in how
people listen to music, although
it remains to be seen if more peo-
ple end up paying for 5-euro- and
10-euro-per-month subscrip-
tions.
Reality will tell me if Imright
or wrong, he said.
In introducing the new system
at a developers conference in San
Francisco that was viewable on-
line, Facebook CEO Mark Zuck-
erberg described the sharing as
being part of a new product
called the timeline, saying
apps help tell the story of your
life. The new system will result
in an order of magnitude more
posts than before, he said. Apps
will come with their own set of
privacy controls and previous
posts can be manually deleted.
Several companies said the
new sharing system would help
users discover music, news sto-
ries and movies.
Netflix Inc. CEO Reed Hasti-
ngs, said knowing that a Face-
book friend has watched some-
thingis more compellingthanhis
companys ownrecommendation
technology, which is based on
ones own past viewing behavior.
He said because a friend of his
watched AMCs Breaking Bad,
he finally got around to seeing it.
Watching content because my
friend did really trumped the al-
gorithm, Hastings told the audi-
ence.
Netflixs integration will only
be available for online streaming
members in Canada and Latin
America because an obscure law
impedes a U.S. launch for now.
Daniel Ek, founder of music
subscription service Spotify, told
Facebook developers at the un-
veiling that the deeper integra-
tion will help the world light up
with music. Since its launch in
the U.S. inJuly, the Swedishcom-
pany has boosted the number of
paying customers to more than 2
million globally from 1.6 million
previously.
Spotifycharges $10amonthfor
unlimited access to tracks on mo-
bile devices, but a PC-based ver-
sion is free in the U.S. with no
caps on usage for now. Clicking
on friends passive posts puts a
program on ones computer that
plays back the song.
Freeing people fromthe hassle
of activelysharingsongs theylike
will help keep people engaged in
their friends listening habits
without effort, said Spotifys
chief content officer, Ken Parks.
Anything that brings the friction
out of that is great for everybo-
dy, he said.
Rhapsody, a competing $10-a-
month unlimited mobile music
service, announced it would al-
lowFacebook users 30 days to try
out their service, even on mobile
devices. Competitor Rdio is giv-
ing users a free 7-day trial on
computers only.
The more youhelp people dis-
cover music, the more social it is,
the more they will be engaged,
said Rhapsody president Jon Ir-
win. If theyre more engaged,
then theyre more likely to sub-
scribe.

Q: My manager says she wants
tohelpme get promoted, but she
doesnt seem to be doing any-
thing about it. For the past two
years, she has said that my posi-
tion should be reclassified as an
assistant director. However, our
company requires assistant di-
rectors to have people reporting
tothem, andI dont have any em-
ployees.
When I first came to work
here, I supervised five people,
but nowImina program-manag-
er position, which has no staff. If
my boss truly caredabout my ad-
vancement, I believe she would
either get an exception made to
the policy or reorganize to give
me some employees. What can I
do about this?
A: A direct, but diplomatic,
conversation with your boss
should allow you to assess her
level of commitment to your ca-
reer. During this discussion, do
not become irritated or accusa-
tory. You are simply asking her
to help you accomplish a goal
which she has said she supports.
For example: I know you feel
that I should be an assistant di-
rector, but company policy
seems to make that difficult.
Since getting this promotion is
really important to me, I wonder
if we could discuss the obstacles
and how we might overcome
them.
If this leads to an exploration
of promotional strategies, you
can mention the possibility of a
reorganization or policy excep-
tion. But if your boss seems re-
luctant to consider specific op-
tions, then she is unlikely to be-
come a strong advocate for your
cause.
Q: Im having a communica-
tion problem with a co-worker,
Angie, whose father owns our
company. Angie repeatedly over-
steps her bounds and tries to do
my job. I had a direct talk with
her ina kindandgentle tone, but
this made her angry. When I
tried to smooth over her feel-
ings, she refused to speak and
has avoided me ever since.
I dont see any way to fix our
relationship as long as Angie is
acting like a sulky child. The fact
that her dad is the owner doesnt
help. We were great co-workers
until this one little incident.
What should I do?
A: If Angie stopped speaking
after one little incident, then
evidently the incident did not
seem so little to her. Although
you may have been trying to de-
liver your message diplomatical-
ly, she obviously took it as a per-
sonal affront. Given that shes
the bosss daughter, you would
be wise to take the first step in
making amends.
For example: Angie, I feel ter-
rible that our working relation-
ship seems to have changed. Be-
fore last week, I thought we got
along really well, so I would like
for us to work together the way
we did before. If I can do any-
thing to make that happen,
please let me know.
Revisiting the original issue
will only reopen old wounds, so
if Angie chooses to talk, keep the
conversation positive. But if she
continues giving you the cold
shoulder, just remain pleasant
and friendly. Like most pouters,
shell thaw out eventually.
Ask boss directly for help in promotion

NEWYORKWhenthecoun-
try recovered from recessions in
the past, small businesses were
usuallythefirst companiestostart
hiring. But smaller companies are
sopessimisticnowthattheyrenot
taking on their historical leader-
shipposition.
The National Federation of In-
dependent Business, whichissues
a monthly report on small busi-
ness optimism, says confidence
in the future of the economy
crashed in August. The groups
optimismindex which it wryly
called the Small Business Pessi-
mism index was down for the
sixthstraight month.
The small business half of the
economy is still in the tank, the
NFIBsaidinits report.
THE BIGGEST PROBLEM:
SALES
The NFIB optimism index is
compiled from a survey of small
business owners. Fewer survey
participants said their sales were
rising, and more said sales were
falling, comparedwithJuly.
The outlook for the future isnt
good. Thirty-four percent of own-
erssurveyedsaidtheyexpect their
sales to fall in the next three
months. Twenty-one percent ex-
pectedsales toriseand45percent
expectedthemtobe unchanged.
Those arent the kind of num-
bers that inspire confidence. Wil-
liamDunkelberg, the NFIBs chief
economist, noted that employers
areunlikelytohireiftheyreunsure
that theyll havethesales tojustify
a larger staff.
As long as you can expect the
new employee to pay for him or
herself, youll hire them, Dunkel-
bergsaidinaninterview.
The governments report that
employers added no new jobs in
August shows that small business-
es are hesitant to take chances.
About40percentofthecompanies
surveyed for the governments
monthly job creation report have
fewer than 20 employees. And
Dunkelberg noted that the Com-
merce Department reported that
retail sales were unchanged dur-
ingAugust. Numberslikethat also
wont encourage small businesses
tohire.
MODEST HIRING PLANS
BUTNOTENOUGHTOHELP
The NFIBsaid11percent of the
owners it surveyed in August
planned to create jobs in the next
threemonths.Twelvepercentplan
tocutjobs, and77plannochanges.
The group said those readings are
at the low levels seen during a re-
cession. The group predicted that
the unemployment rate could
ease a fraction or remain un-
changed at 9.1percent.
Thegovernmentsweeklycount
of the number of people who ap-
plied for unemployment benefits
also points to little change in the
unemployment rate. The number
rose to 428,000 inthe week ended
Sept.10. Thatwasthehighestlevel
in three months. Economists be-
lieve the number of applications
needstofall toaround375,000and
stay there before the unemploy-
ment rate candropsignificantly.
WHATSBEHINDITALL?
The crash in the housing mar-
ket, which eventually set off the
2008 financial crisis, was seen as
the biggest cause of the recession.
Dunkelbergsaystheproblemnowis
alackof confidenceingovernment.
When Standard & Poors lowered
the governments credit rating in
early August, it cited what it be-
lievedtobetheinabilityofCongress
to work on cutting the federal bud-
get and deficit. Dunkelberg says
consumers, who ultimately drive
sales, have lost their confidence in
the government as well. He noted

SMALL TALK
Small business owners are getting more pessimistic
By JOYCE M. ROSENBERG
AP Business Writer
Set some boundaries
Sue Watkins, marketing direc-
tor for a Folsom, Calif., software
company, said her two teenagers
got cellphones in middle school,
when they began walking to
school alone. It was for us to be
able to stay in touch and ensure
that if they had any issues, they
could reach us throughout the
day, said the El Dorado Hills,
Calif., resident.
Knowing how distracting cell-
phones can be, she and her hus-
band set some ground rules: No
phones at the dinner table or
while out to eat with family. No
accessing the Internet on the cell-
phone. No texting in bed late at
night.
For the most part, its worked
out fine with her 14-year-old
daughter and 17-year-old son.
And, she notes, given teens devo-
tion to their digital devices, hav-
ing a cellphone is a privilege that
can be yanked, if needed, for dis-
ciplinary reasons.
Picking a plan
First, you want a carrier that
covers the areas (school, sports,
after-school) where your tween
will be using a phone the most.
Next, choose between a pre-
paid plan and a contract-based
plan, whereyoupaya monthlybill
for services.
With a contract, your monthly
bill spells out each charge. The
phone itself is often heavily dis-
counted. You select a monthly
bucket of minutes, texts and data
and may be able to place limits on
your childs use so you dont rack
up extra charges. But youre usu-
ally locked into a year-or-more
service agreement.
Withprepaidplans, youtypical-
ly pay upfront and dont pay
monthly contract or overage fees.
Some prepaid plans that bill
monthly offer unlimited texting.
The phone itself is not usually as
discounted.
GT MY MSG?
Texting use is a big issue, so
choose that option carefully.
For families with text-happy
kids, a more affordable option
than per-text fees may be to buy a
set amount of monthly text mess-
ages or an unlimited plan, which
tends to run about $10-$20 a
month, says NCL.
When Watkins first monthly
bill arrived with two teen cell-
phones included, she noticed
hundreds of texts that exceeded
the familys cellphone contract
limits. And the per-text penalty
fees were starting to add up.
It was shocking. We now run
between 2,000 and 4,000 texts a
month between the two kids. I
couldnt do that if I tried, said
their mom.
Rather than battling over over-
charges for texting fees, the family
shifted to unlimited texting. Now,
they pay about $140 a month for
three phones (hers is work-sup-
plied) with unlimited texting and a
sharedallotment of1,400minutesa
month for voice messages.
Keeping tabs
With all the cellphone compa-
nies jostlingfor the tweenmarket,
there are plenty of cellphone op-
tions aimed at parents. Brands
like Kajeet or Firefly Mobile have
simplified button commands and
let parents program in favorite
numbers, as well as restrict in-
coming/outgoing calls and texts.
Want to know if Natalie got
home OK after school? Or if Jus-
tin arrived at his friends house?
(And when he left that house?)
Using GPS services like Veri-
zons Family Locator or AT&Ts
Family Map, you can get a text
on your cellphone when your
child or at least his or her
phone arrives home from
school, shows up at soccer prac-
tice or heads to a friends house.
Youcanevenrequest Schedule
Checks where at set times say,
4 p.m., youll get an automatic
text of your childs cellphone loca-
tion. When the cellphone leaves
that address, youll get another
text. Fees vary.
As Verizon nicely reminds par-
ents, its locator services should
not be used as child manage-
ment tools or as a substitute for
adult supervision.
Schools rule
Check with your son or daugh-
ters school for its policy on cell-
phone use on campus. You dont
want an expensive phone confis-
cated because your kid was
caught using it inappropriately.
Before you buy
Have your tween try out the
phone. Test the keyboard or num-
ber pad and make a test call to
check volume. Once youve decid-
edona particular phone, see what
discounts are offered, in-store or
online.

Jobs-less Apple Still
a Good Buy
Steve Jobs, Iounder oI Apple
(Nasdaq: AAPI) and Iacing health
issues, has resigned as CEO.
But Apple remains the same
company it was the day before the
announcement. Tim Cook, the new
CEO, has held that position in all but
name since January, when Jobs took
a medical leave oI absence. As chieI
operating oIIicer, he made Apple into
a lean machine. Plus, Jobs leaves in
place a strong team that should keep
Apple selling gobs oI products, pro-
ducing tons of cash and expanding
the reach of its ecosystem.
Apple is a strong company, but it
does have its share of challenges.
Competitors are releasing their
own tablet computers to compete
with the iPad, and Android phones
are proving to be very competitive
with iPhones. How Cook and his
team respond to these threats over
the next few quarters will offer a
clearer picture oI Apple`s ability to
continue its growth.
How well Apple`s next new prod-
ucts do is also important. Success
will show that Apple is in good
hands, while flops might be a reason
to sell. Despite these concerns and
even because of them, uncertainty
presents opportunity. The stock is
trading at a P/E ratio near 15, well
below its five-year average of 26.

Years ago, I did a little investing
in stocks. A Iew, such as Disney,
made money. (I got in at $36 and
out at $44.) I also bought into Eam-
ily Dollar. It shot up one day, and
as I thought that anything
that rises so fast will go
down Iast too, I planned to
sell. But I wasn`t paying
close enough attention, and it took
a nosedive beIore I could sell.
I want to buy Disney again,
but I Ieel like it`s too late. Stocks
like that are good investments
if you got in early, but now
where are they gonna go?
M.B., Carnesville, Ga.
The Fool Responds: Most good
stocks are good not just for early
investors. IBM stock, Ior example,
has averaged 12 percent annual
growth over the past 20 years
and 18 percent over the past five.
General Electric has averaged 12
percent over the past 30 years. It`s
also risky to try to time stocks. II
you believe in a companys long-
term potential, consider holding
for the long haul, as long as it
appears healthy and isnt
grossly overvalued.

What does 'pro Iorma mean?
N.P., Farmington, N.M.
A
The term 'pro Iorma on a
financial statement means
that you`re looking at some 'what
iI numbers. Imagine that Nike
merged with Toyota last July.
At the end oI the merged compa-
nys fiscal year in December, you
might see some pro forma financial
statements in the Nike-Toyota
annual report. These would show
you the state of the firm over the
year as if it had been a combined
company all year long.
Pro Iorma results can be useIul.
II you were researching Nike-Toy-
ota, it wouldnt be too meaningful
to contrast a pre-merger periods
results with post-merger results. By
examining combined results, you
can get a clearer idea of the com-
panys financial health.
Sometimes, though, companies
have gotten carried away with pro
forma numbers, showing positive
earnings results they would have
had if various bad things hadnt
happened.

Old Stock Certificates
Rummaging among old papers,
you find some dusty stock cer-
tiIicates. So you wonder: Are they
worth anything? They may well be
valuable, but that can be hard to
determine, because over time, com-
panies often merge with and split
from other companies, changing
their names along the way. Some
end up out of business, with their
stock worthless, while the stock of
other obscure companies may now
represent ownership in thriving
businesses. Old bonds can present
similar puzzles.
Don your detectives cap and see
if you can find the company listed in
your newspapers stock listings, or at
one oI many sites, such as Eool.com,
where you can look up companies
and their stock quotes. You can give
your brokerage a jingle, too, to see if
the folks there can tell you anything.
Eailing that, contact either the
secretary of state for the state in
which the shares were issued or the

VIEWS S E C T I O N E
timesleader.com
THE EXECUTIVE
power shall be vested
in a President of the
United States of
America. He shall
hold his office during
the term of four years,
and, together with the
Vice President, chosen for the same
term, be elected, as follows:
Each state shall appoint, in such
manner as the legislature thereof may
direct, a number of electors equal to
the whole number of senators and
representatives to which the state may
be entitled in the Congress.
Once referred to as a college of
electors the citizens selected every
four years, per Article II Section I of the
U.S. Constitution, become the Electo-
ral College. It is they who vote to fill
the high offices of president and vice
president of the United States.
Because of our 100 U.S. Senate seats,
435 members of the House of Repre-
sentatives and the three so designated
for the District of Columbia, there are
currently 538 electoral votes that may
be cast when choosing a president. A
majority of 270 is required for election.
In 48 of the 50 states the legislatures
thereof have directed that their electo-
ral votes go to the presidential candi-
date receiving the most popular votes
from their state. Only Maine and Ne-
braska, with four and five electoral
votes respectively, do it differently.
In 2008, with 19 congressional dis-
tricts and two U.S. senate seats, Penn-
sylvania had 21 electoral votes to give
the presidential candidate who eventu-
ally carried the commonwealth. The
successful candidate that year was Sen.
Barack Obama, D-Illinois.
Similarly in 2004, 2000, 1996 and in
1992 it was the nominee of the Demo-
cratic Party Sen. John Kerry, Vice
President Al Gore and President Bill
Clinton twice that captured Penn-
sylvanias votes in the Electoral Col-
lege.
Next year, however, Pennsylvania
will have but 20 electoral votes to be-
stow and, in a stunning high-handed
maneuver, Republicans controlling the
state House and Senate hope to change
the manner by which those all-impor-
tant electoral votes are allocated.
Under the terms of the Republican
scheme hatched in Harrisburg, 18 of
Pennsylvanias 20 electoral votes would
go to the presidential candidate garner-
ing the most votes in each of the 18
individual congressional districts. Win
a congressional district, get an electoral
vote. Only the remaining two would be
allotted on the basis of who actually
wins the statewide popular vote.
If this ploy was perpetrated four
years ago, the nominee of the Repub-
lican Party, Sen. John McCain of Arizo-
na, would have received 10 of Penn-
sylvanias 21 electoral votes. This, de-
spite the fact that Obama won Penn-
sylvania by 620,478 popular votes and a
landslide margin of 10.3 percent.
This right-wing power grab being
concocted in Pennsylvanias Republican
Legislature to influence the outcome of
a presidential election is so disturbing
that independent voters everywhere
should be rightly alarmed.
If this electoral subterfuge were to
become law, it is not inconceivable that
next years Democratic presidential
nominee could win the support of a
majority of Pennsylvania voters yet
receive fewer Pennsylvania electoral
votes than the Republican standard
bearer.
To further its design, the Republicans
in Harrisburg soon will unveil the new
reapportioned boundaries of the 18
congressional districts in question.
(See In the Arena of June 25).
At a minimum the impending reap-
portionment of the Keystone State will
firmly implant 12 relatively safe GOP
districts upon the landscape and elim-
inate yet another Democrat-leaning
district.
These 18 partisan templates will be
the same congressional districts Repub-
licans hope to use next year when allo-
cating Pennsylvanias electoral votes for
the presidency of the United States.
Why? Because they can.
Why? Because elections matter.

EVERYONE HAS A RIGHT TO
express his view on monetary pol-
icy. Members of Congress across
the ideological spectrum bark at
the Fed all the time.
But when the speaker of the
House and the minority leader of
the Senate, and their deputies, all
members of a party whose presi-
dential candidates are going around
the country criticizing the Fed
chairman, tell the Fed that the
American people have reason to be
skeptical of the Federal Reserve
vastly increasing its role in the
economy if measurable outcomes
cannot be demonstrated, as they
wrote Tuesday to Fed Chairman
Ben Bernanke thats provocative.
Intentionally or not, it conveys an
implicit threat of legislative action
if the Fed doesnt change course. By
alluding to public dissents of Fed
board members and asking Ber-
nanke to distribute their letter to
the board, the Republicans also
seemed to foment internal Fed divi-
sions.
Troubling as it is, this sort of
political pressure is bound to hap-
pen when an unelected central bank
commits immense quantities of
national wealth to unconventional
policies even though the Fed has
acted with both good intentions,
and, to the extent it helped avoid a
deflationary spiral in 2008, good
results.
Nevertheless, the Republicans
have a point. The Feds more recent
unconventional measures such as
quantitative easing are far more
controversial among economists. It
would be a lot easier to defend the
Feds independence if the clear
consensus of expert opinion favored
its actions. But there is no such
consensus.
When the Supreme Court parses
a statute and determines, based on
applicable precedent, that one party
can sue another, people may dis-
agree. But they have to concede
that the court was deciding a legal
question uniquely within its ex-
pertise and its authority. When the
court loosely construes broad con-
stitutional language to guarantee,
say, a right to abortion, it ventures
into the political thicket.
Right now, the Fed is a bit like
the Supreme Court in Roe v. Wade.
Its pursuing a policy most of its
members believe is right and
that might, indeed, be right. But
there is not much more consensus,
societal or scientific, about the
costs and benefits of quantitative
easing than there was about the
personhood of the fetus.
You have to admire Bernanke for
taking the heat. He frequently in-
vokes the dual mandate Congress
gave the Fed to pursue maxi-
mum employment and stable prices
over the long term.
But the dual mandate is a source
of his troubles. It gives the Fed
broader responsibility and, some
would say, broader power than
the current state of objective eco-
nomic knowledge supports.
Central banks in the rest of the
world have only one mandate: to
ensure price stability. Would a sin-
gle mandate create an anti-infla-
tionary bias at the Fed, disabling it
in times of high unemployment?
Actually, as Harvard economist
Greg Mankiw has suggested, mone-
tary policy today might well be just
as expansionary under a price-sta-
bility mandate. Thats because the
Fed would be required to fight both
inflation and deflation and defla-
tionary pressures are strong at pre-
sent.
But the political context would
be much different. Under simpler
rules, the central banks claims of
legitimacy would be that much
clearer, and its resistance to politic-
ization that much stronger.
The central bank could focus on
its job, with less worry about angry
letters from Congress. And there
would be one less scapegoat for
politicians to blame when they fail
to meet their own responsibilities.

REENFIELD, Calif. The story of the California Army National Guards 1st
Battalion of the184th Infantry Regiment is mostly in the record books now: 17
soldiers killed, more than 100 wounded, 11 Army Commendations for Valor,
more than 80 Purple Hearts.
Lt. Col. Patrick Frey knows there is still one chapter to be written his own.
Its beensevenyears since he tookcommandof the1-184 andledmore than700 soldiers
into combat in Baghdad. A schoolteacher back home, Frey became the face of a grand
military experiment to move the National Guards weekend warriors from the re-
serve to the combat front.
He had no way of knowing that his elite battalion
wouldbecomeanemblemof all that was ambitious and
flawed about Iraq, or that the war would nearly bring
him to his knees.
Byall accounts, thevast majorityof Freys soldiers
a lawyer, a plumber, a marketing executive, a number
of veteran cops performed valiantly in a combusti-
ble corner of Baghdad.
But thebattalionwas alsosingledout bythemilitary,
Frey said, as a case study indysfunction. Freys soldiers
engaged in petty turf wars with rival units. One was
caught patrolling the streets of Baghdad with a Sam-
urai sword swinging from his belt; another kept a
death list that included some of his own.
Then, what had begun with small-time transgres-
sions gave way to a sordid night in a dark field to
allegations that 1-184 soldiers abused innocent Iraqis.
Twelve soldiers were charged. The Big Army the
full-timers and the wars field commanders also ze-
roed in on Frey himself.
The trials of Frey and his battalion were national
news, but he steadfastly maintained his silence. Now,
he believes, it is time to tell the rest of the story. Hes
just not sure how it goes.
Frey, now 56, knows this much: He is not the same
man who left for war. He rails against a military that he
contends hung him out to dry for the sins of others;
then, in the next breath, he torments himself with
questions about how a 32-year military career could
have ended in disgrace.
Amans reputation is like his shadow, said Frey. It
aint him but ... damn, its pretty close.
The walls of his farmhouse offer no hint of his years
in uniform as a grunt, a Ranger, a Marine, a rifle
company commander, a lieutenant colonel. There is no
uniform hanging in his closet.
I aint got a place anymore, he said. I love soldiers.
I love soldiering. But its over.
Frey got his first taste of war in Vietnam, he said,
then fought for the white-minority government in the
Rhodesian civil war not for ideological reasons but
because he felt that riding with a modern army on
horseback would be a thrilling adventure. He came
home, marriedhis highschool sweetheart andenlisted
in the Army, rising to first lieutenant.
Even after he switched professions and became a
special education teacher, his yearning for the military
never ebbed, he said. After he and his wife, Lynne,
moved to California with their young son, he rose to
lieutenant colonel in the Reserves.
In the spring of 2004, an opportunity sprang up: The
1-184 had an opening in the battalion commanders
spot. Headquartered in Modesto, the1-184 was nimble
and dynamic, with weapons and training rarely offered
to the Guard, and was deep into the pipeline of units
headed for Iraq.
In peacetime, the guard had been used primarily in
domestic missions. By the time Frey took command,
Guard troops made up more than half the combat
forces in Iraq. The transformation had not been seam-

Despite this outward persona of
confidence, Mike (Conahan)
suffered from insidious feelings of
inadequacy and insecurity.
Philip Gelso
The attorney for former Luzerne County President Judge Michael T.
Conahan said during Fridays sentencing hearing that his client had
learned much about himself through meetings with a psychologist
after Conahans arrest on public corruption charges. Said Gelso: He
comes from a family with a patriarch who drove his children to success
and used money as a barometer of that success. He was taught the
ends justified the means.
THE SO-CALLED de-
bates among Republican
presidential aspirants are
classic examples of the
news media spreading
misunderstanding instead
of enlightenment. The
ancient admonition, With all youre getting,
get understanding has been replaced in the
media by, With all youre getting, get sound
bites and, if possible, gotcha sound
bites.
After all the hype over Texas Gov. Rick
Perrys having called Social Security a
Ponzi scheme, viewers are no more in-
formed than before as to what specifically is
a Ponzi scheme, what are the objections to
such schemes and whether those same
objections apply to Social Security.
Even if such questions were answered, we
would still not have weighed the alterna-
tives to Social Security. Serious issues like
that cannot be covered in sound bites or
with gotcha questions.
The whole debate format, with far more
candidates than have any realistic chance of
getting the nomination, means that serious
issues cannot get serious attention, because
there is just not enough time with so many
people. Most of what we learn from those
debates is who is glib and fast on his feet.
We need leaders who have thought
through many complex issues facing the
country, not leaders with flashy words and
snappy comebacks.
A real debate between two candidates,
such as the famous Lincoln-Douglas debates
in the 19th century, could bring out what
the fundamental differences between the
candidates are and in the process enlight-
en the public on issues that affect their lives.
But the short attention span of todays pop-
ulation means that something like the Lin-
coln-Douglas debates would have a very
small audience.
What are called candidate debates today
are questions from journalists, with the time
allotted for the answers being too short for
anything other than superficial responses.
It would be far more informative to have
an hour-long interview with each of the
candidates who has some serious chance of
winning the Republican nomination. That
would cut the number down to two or three,
and allow us to get some real idea about
how deeply those two or three have thought
through the weighty issues facing this coun-
try.
Not all interviewers are like the media
hosts who conducted the first two candidate
debates. Interviewers such as Brian Lamb
or Charlie Rose people who try to bring
out what the person who is being inter-
viewed has to say, rather than trying to trap
them could get a lot of useful information
out of a candidate in an hour.
That would leave the public with some-
thing to really think about, rather than just
some catchy words and emotional phrases.
We might even elect a president who knows
what he is talking about, instead of some-
one with a talent for using rhetoric and
striking poses.
How can we get away from the strait-
jacket of the current debate format?
That format might serve the interests of
the broadcast media by producing a fast-
paced program. But it does not serve the
interest of the political party whose candi-
dates are all diminished by being displayed
in such large numbers, including many who
are obviously just along for the ride, and in
a setting where their attacks on each other
turn them into a circular firing squad.
Either each political party can refuse to
sanction debates in this format or the
leading contenders can refuse to take part.
Viable candidates are going to get covered
in the news media, whether they are part of
a cattle show or not and focusing on viable
candidates can end the time-wasting dis-
traction of the also-rans.

COMMENTARY
T H O M A S S O W E L L
DESPITE THE political
banter of Washington, D.C.,
President Obama offered a
bright solution in his jobs
speech: school construc-
tion.
As the president noted in
his speech: How can we expect our kids to
do their best in places that are literally fall-
ing apart? This is America. Every child
deserves a great school and we can give it
to them, if we act now.
As proposed, the American Jobs Act
would repair and modernize at least 35,000
schools creating jobs in communities
across the country.
In one groundbreaking example, Dr. Rob-
ert Pollin of the University of Massachu-
setts-Amherst has demonstrated that spend-
ing on education generates the largest num-
ber of jobs (23.1 per $1 million in spending)
of any government spending.
With such potential investment, we have
the possibility to further increase the rate of
return for taxpayers by emphasizing green
school construction practices. These efforts
have the proven ability to significantly re-
duce a schools energy, water and other
resource needs. Such savings translate into
real financial paybacks for cash-strapped
school districts.
On average, a green school utilizes 33
percent less energy, 32 percent less water
and reduces waste by 74 percent when com-
pared to a traditionally built school building.
These savings alone can average $100,000
annually enough to hire two new teachers,
buy 250 new computers or purchase 5,000
new textbooks. Green schools also can re-
duce the following pollutants on an annual
basis: 1,200 pounds of nitrogen oxide a
principal component of smog, 1,300 pounds
of sulfur dioxide a principal cause of acid
rain, and 585,000 pounds of carbon dioxide
the principal greenhouse gas.
Unfortunately, not everyone on Capitol
Hill agrees with this industry-standard anal-
ysis. The words environment or green
have become anathema to the mainstream
Republican worldview.
In one draconian sweep, the Appropri-
ations Committee has proposed eliminating
all federal funding for the Environmental
Protection Agencys Office of Environmental
Education (just shy of $10 million). Since
1992, this program has benefited all 50
states with more than 3,400 grants to in-
crease the publics awareness about envi-
ronmental issues and also address an
educational priority such as teacher train-
ing, education reform, or health. This lack
of foresight and leadership does not have to
be the case. Environmental education and
green school practices provide a solid
foundation and investment for any school
community regardless of the communitys
political affiliation.
In the past, the topic of education used to
be beyond partisan bickering. Today should
be no different. In fact, the future of the
nations 55 million schoolchildren and our
economy is depending on it.
A sound, 21st century education is one
that investigates and emphasizes the rela-
tionship between the economy and the
environment. Congress can begin to ad-
vance such an agenda by protecting the
EPAs Office of Environmental Education
and supporting President Obamas school
construction plan with an emphasis on
cost-saving, sustainable construction practic-
es.
As President Obama noted we have to
look beyond the immediate crisis and start
building an economy that lasts into the
future. Green schools are a great place to
start.
Green school practices can help grow the economy

work, which recently launched the Green Schools

COMMENTARY
K A T H L E E N R O G E R S
P
ITY THAT MORE
people didnt turn
out Friday to jeer Mi-
chael T. Conahan
the despicable architect be-
hind Luzerne Countys kids-
for-cash scheme.
The man deserved to hear
a barrage of boos and angry
shouts like his partner in
crime Mark A. Ciavarella Jr.,
also a crooked ex-county
judge, endured last month at
his sentencing in Scrantons
federal court and following
his earlier trial.
Conahan, after all, was the
Cruella de Vil of this tragic
episode. His 17
year prison sen-
tenced handed down
late last week by U.S.
District Judge Ed-
win Kosik was cer-
tainly fitting for the
charge racketeer-
ing conspiracy but
not for the crime.
What earthly sen-
tence would be?
Conahans lust for
money and the pret-
ty things it buys triggered a
sequence of events that ulti-
mately shattered certain
peoples faith in the court
system, tarnished an entire
community, triggered still-
unresolved civil lawsuits,
squandered taxpayers mon-
ey, destroyed careers, shat-
tered families, spoiled lives
and harmed hundreds of ju-
veniles unwittingly swept in-
to the sordid affair. No
amount of time behind bars
is a mea culpa for that.
Conahan and Ciavarella
covered up about $2.8 mil-
lion in payments they re-
ceived for supporting the
construction and operation
of two, for-profit juvenile de-
tention centers, including
one in Pittston Township.
The loot, laundered through
various businesses and unre-
ported to the IRS, came from
a former co-owner of the cen-
ter, attorney Robert Powell,
and the builder of the center,
Robert Mericle. They, too,
face punishment. Ciavarella
already has begun serving a
28-year prison sentence.
But Conahan was the king-
pin. He secretly signed an
agreement to place juveniles
in the for-profit center before
it was built. Likewise, he en-
sured that a Luzerne County-
owned juvenile detention
center was closed, over the
objections of others. He han-
dled the subsequent pay-
ments and concocted ways to
disguise them. He reportedly
ate breakfast regularly with a
reputed mobster, discussing
the outcomes of cases.
Conahans lawyer on Fri-
day portrayed the 59-year-
old Hazleton native, who
pleaded guilty rather than go
to trial, as peni-
tent. He spoke of
his clients abu-
sive father and of
alcohol over-
consumption.
If anyone buys
those as reasons
to go lightly on
Conahan, we
have some wa-
terfront proper-
ty in Florida to
sell you. And it
doesnt come with a condo.
Conahan is a white-collar
criminal of the worst kind.
He cloaked his corrupt deeds
behind a judges robe. He de-
served last week to be the ob-
ject of peoples scorn a pub-
lic showing that his criminal
actions are unacceptable to
society.
Moreover, a raucous gath-
ering would have impressed
upon court officials, state
lawmakers and others that
the people of this community
expect meaningful judicial
reform. Many recommenda-
tions made by the Philadel-
phia-based Juvenile Law
Center and other groups that
analyzed this historic break-
down of justice have yet to be
implemented. Policy chang-
es have yet to be put into ef-
fect. Bills await passage.
In the end, if the only cor-
rective action that results
fromthis experience is that a
couple old, self-indulgent
white guys spend their re-
tirement years in jail, we all
are culpable. And that
wouldnt be a mere pity; it
would be pathetic.
OUR OPINION: CONAHAN VERDICT
HARP HEFFERNAN/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Michael T. Conahan is a white-collar criminal of the worst
kind. He cloaked his corrupt deeds behind a judges robe.
In the end, if all
that results from
this experience is
that a couple old,
self-indulgent
white guys spend
their retirement
years in jail, we
all are culpable.
Hard time wont
heal this hurt

F O R U M
IN A 2008
debate, Char-
lie Gibson
asked Barack
Obama about
his support
for raising
capital gains
taxes, given the historical
record of government losing
net revenue as a result. Oba-
ma persevered: Well, Charlie,
what Ive said is that I would
look at raising the capital
gains tax for purposes of fair-
ness.
A most revealing window
into our presidents political
core: To impose a tax that
actually impoverishes our
communal bank account (the
U.S. Treasury) is ridiculous. It
is nothing but punitive. It
benefits no one not the rich,
not the poor, not the govern-
ment. For Obama, however, it
brings fairness, which is price-
less.
Now that hes president,
Obama has gone and done it.
Hes just proposed a $1.5 tril-
lion tsunami of tax hikes fea-
turing a Buffett rule that,
although as yet deliberately
still fuzzy, clearly includes
raising capital gains taxes.
He also insists again upon
raising marginal rates on mil-
lionaire couples making
$250,000 or more. But roughly
half the income of small busi-
nesses (i.e., those filing indi-
vidual returns) would be hit
by this tax increase. There-
fore, if we are to believe Oba-
mas own logic that his pro-
posed business tax credits
would increase hiring, then
surely this tax hike will reduce
small-business hiring. But
what are jobs when fairness is
at stake? Fairness trumps
growth. Fairness trumps reve-
nue. Fairness trumps econom-
ic logic.
Obama himself has said that
you dont raise taxes in a
recession. Why then would
he risk economic damage
when facing re-election? Be-
cause these proposals have no
chance of being enacted, many
of them having been rejected
by the Democratic-controlled
Congress of Obamas first two
years in office. Moreover, this
is not an economic, or jobs or
debt-reduction plan in the first
place. This is a campaign
manifesto. This is anti-million-
aire populism as premise for
his re-election. And as such, it
already is working.
Obamas Democratic base is
electrified. On the left, the
new message is playing to
rave reviews. It has rekindled
the enthusiasm of his core
constituency.
The new Obama is really
the old Obama the one who,
upon entering office in the
middle of a deep economic
crisis, and determined not to
allow a serious crisis to go to
waste (to quote his then chief
of staff), exploited the (pre-
sumed) malleability of a de-
moralized and therefore pas-
sive citizenry to enact the
largest Keynesian stimulus in
recorded history, followed by
the quasi-nationalization of
one-sixth of the economy that
is health care.
Considering the political
cost massive electoral re-
buke by an infuriated 2010
electorate these are the
works of a conviction politic-
ian, one deeply committed to
his own social-democratic
vision.
That politician now returns.
Obamas new populism surely
is a calculation that his half-
hearted feints to the center
after the midterm shellack-
ing were not only unconvinc-
ing but would do him no good
anyway with a stagnant econo-
my, 9 percent unemployment
and a staggering $4 trillion of
new debt.
The authentic Obama is a
leveler, a committed social
democrat, a staunch believer
in the redistributionist state, a
tribune, above all, of fair-
ness understood as govern-
ment-imposed and govern-
ment-enforced equality.
Thats why soak the rich is
not just a campaign slogan to
rally the base. Its a mission, a
vocation. Its why for all its
gratuitous cynicism and dema-
goguery, Obamas populist
Rose Garden lecture on Mon-
day was delivered with such
obvious and unusual con-
viction.
Hes returned to the authen-
ticity of his radical April 2009
New Foundation address (at
Georgetown University) that
openly proclaimed his intent
to fundamentally transform
America.
Good. Theres something to
be said for authenticity. A
choice not an echo, said Barry
Goldwater. The country will
soon choose, although not
soon enough.

radical Pres. Obama

ANOTHER VIEW
A photograph by Aimee Dilger
and words by Mark E. Jones
ITS A phrase
you hear in
almost every
marriage cere-
mony. Till
death do us
part.
But what
about a kind of death?
Can you kind of part?
TV evangelist Pat Robertson
seems to think so. He recently
answered a question on his
show about a man who started
seeing another woman after his
wifes Alzheimers left her un-
able to even recognize him
anymore.
I know it sounds cruel,
Robertson said, but if hes
going to do something, he
should divorce her and start all
over again. ...
When pressed about the mar-
riage vows, Robertson added, If
you respect that vow, you say til
death do us part. This (Alz-
heimers) is a kind of death.
He did suggest that the man
before he left make sure his
wife had custodial care. But last
I looked, a nurse is not a hus-
band. And custodial care is
not in the vows.
Reaction was swift and often
angry to Robertson, particularly
from Christians who felt he was
betraying his own religion. Still,
before we jump all over the
man, we should at least ac-
knowledge that this is a serious
issue that more and more Amer-
icans are facing.
Debilitating illnesses always
have been around. But as mod-
ern medicine improves, people
can live longer with them
which means healthy husbands
and wives live longer with their
afflicted spouses.
Alzheimers, in particular, has
become a common companion.
Sufferers can live for years in
their own private prisons, rarely
if ever emerging for a glimpse of
recognition. The rest of the
time, spouses and family mem-
bers comfort the body while
searching for the soul.
So do you walk away? Pay for
care and get on with your life?
Thats what Robertson was
suggesting when he said: I
cant fault (the husband) for
wanting some kind of compan-
ionship. If he says in a sense she
is gone, hes right. Its like a
walking death.
The problem is a walking
death is still not death. And
Alzheimers is not its only form.
What about ALS? It robs the
brain of its communication with
the body, leaves you an immo-
bile husk, unable in many cases
to do more than blink an eye or
wiggle a toe. Isnt that a kind of
death?
And yet I recently visited a
couple in California, Augie and
Lynne Nieto, who seven years
ago were the picture of health
and wealth and beauty. Now,
Augie, 53, is in a wheelchair,
unable to speak, move, kiss or
hold, deeply victimized by ALS.
Still, Lynne is as in love with
him as ever, doting on him,
teasing him.
Their relationship is not the
same not in its behavior. But it
is in their hearts.
Strokes can do similar dam-
age. They leave once healthy
men slumped sideways in a
chair, once beautiful women
with open mouths and dazed
expressions. At that point, the
marriage cannot be the same.
But does that stamp a spouses
walking papers?
I watched my own father push
my mother a stroke victim in
her wheelchair. They never
imagined this. But his love for
her, and commitment to her, is
as unwavering as on their wed-
ding day.
What about closed head in-
juries? Comas? Patients hooked
permanently to machinery? If
were meant to stick around
only until the going gets tough,
why bother to make those prom-
ises? Like in sickness and in
health?
Lets be honest. Half of Amer-
ican marriages fall apart over
more mundane issues. If Im not
judging those, then I cannot
judge when something as tough
as Alzheimers enters the pic-
ture. Perhaps the couple spoke
about such a dilemma. Perhaps
one told the other: I dont want
you to be alone. Live your life.
If so, that should supersede
outside opinion.
But we can say this: A kind
of death is a worrisome phrase.
And applying it can set worri-
some precedents.
Better, perhaps, to focus on
the ways people find to stay
together Augie and Lynne, my
folks, people you know? and
be inspired by how amazing
lifetime love can be.
A kind of death should not a sacred vow break

Weis staff comes
to readers rescue
I
n late August, after Hurri-
cane Irene rained down on
most of the Northeast, I was
lucky enough to only have
suffered through a day with-
out power. However, even
without power, I still enjoy my
daily paper; so I drove to Weis
supermarket. But in my haste
I locked my keys inside my
car.
Sherri, from the Weis stores
office, called the police to see
if they could come to my aid,
but they told her that opening
a locked car door is no longer
something that they do. What
a shame!
I was fortunate enough to
have many other wonderful
people come to my aid. A very
nice gentleman, who might
have been the manager, was
the first to go to my car. Then
another man, Brad, came with
tools. Lauren, from the meat
department, did her best to
give me comfort in my pan-
icked state.
Two nice customers also
tried to reassure me that
someone would get my car
door open.
I am so glad that I shop at
Weis what a wonderful staff.
Thank you all so very much!

Class reunion
took hard work
A
n excellent job was done
by everyone to make the
Lake-Lehman Class of
1971 reunion a tremendous
success. The planning com-
mittee with Phil Krasner, the
Adams twins and Gary Ide
really worked hard.
The atmosphere at the
Mohegan Sun ballroom the
food, the fellowship, the live
bands and the favors was
superb.
As their teacher, I was hon-
ored to be their guest of hon-
or. These former students
always had such respect, and
they still do. I remarked that
they were, and are, all success-
ful and never got into difficul-
ty. We reminisced about the
class trips, the magazine
drives and the after-school
dances.
Yes, this was an evening we
will not soon forget. Keep up
the outstanding work.

Road crew gets
job done right
A
s property owners in Rice
Township for 23 years, we
recently had work done on
our street to correct a problem
that existed for many years,
and we greatly appreciate the
efforts of Miller Stella, Lou
Konopelski and the entire
township road crew, whose
members did a terrific job.
In these challenging fi-
nancial times for all munici-
palities, it is heartwarming to
know that residents can get
timely results when a problem
is brought to officials atten-
tion. We felt very pleased
knowing that the current
leadership takes a proactive
approach to addressing home-
owners concerns.
Thanks to everyone in-
volved in bringing back our
property to its original appear-
ance. The work was done
exactly as promised, and we
were kept informed every step
of the way. A terrific job was
done by all involved.

Rainbow day
at the jewelers
I
had to write about my
experience at Rainbow
Jewelers in Kingston.
My partner and I had just
celebrated our 30th anni-
versary and, to mark the occa-
sion, we went there to pur-
chase a new ring. The place
was very busy, but Rose took
her time with me, allowing me
to try on several rings before I
decided on the right one. It
was perfect.
On the way home I discov-
ered that I accidentally had
left behind my own diamond
ring, having taken it off during
the multiple try-ons. I was
frantic, almost sure it was
gone forever. My partner
pulled over and called the
store.
As soon as he told them
what he was looking for, they
put Rose on the phone. They
had my ring! Moreover, in the
20 minutes we were gone,
Rose had tried to look up my
telephone number (not listed)
and had searched the Internet.
Facebook yielded a few possi-
bilities, but none of them was
me. In speaking with her, it
was as if Rose were as frantic
as I was.
When we retrieved my ring,
we thanked Rose and the
entire staff at Rainbow Jew-
elers, but somehow that didnt
feel like it was enough. That is
why I wrote this letter.
More people should know
what a wonderful deed that
Rose performed and how
great the folks are at the store.
Kudos and thanks. Ill never
forget this.

Mothers milk
weathers storm
W
hat is it like to be a
breast-fed baby during an
emergency evacuation?
So long as baby is with Mom,
he or she has everything need-
ed. No power, no water, no
problem.
Human milk is always clean,
requires no fuel, water or
electricity, and it is available
even in the direst circum-
stances. Mothers who breast-
feed are able to keep their
babies warm to prevent hy-
pothermia.
While mother and baby are
uprooted from home, living in
a shelter or with relatives and
friends, breast-feeding releases
hormones that lower stress
and anxiety in both of them.
In emergency situations,
breast-feeding provides a
critical safety net, says Unit-
ed States Breastfeeding Coali-
tion Chair Jeanne Blanken-
ship. Research shows that
infants are the most vulner-
able in an emergency. Babies
who are breast-fed receive a
safe, reliable food source that
is full of anti-infective proper-
ties to protect them from
disease.
If a baby (or mother) should
become ill, the best thing the
mother can do is to continue
breast-feeding to provide her
baby with human antibodies
that fight the illness.
For more information and
direction to breast-feeding
help and support, contact The
Luzerne County Breastfeeding
Coalition at (570) 808-5534.

Foreign minerals
threaten U.S.
L
ots of people are talking
these days about energy
independence. There is
another side of that coin that
should not be overlooked
mineral independence.
China provides more than
95 percent of the worlds rare
earth minerals, a number that
will soon plummet as China
puts increasing limits on ex-
portation. These minerals are
essential for everything from
computers to cars to skyscrap-
ers, not to mention the tech-
nologies crucial for agricul-
ture, defense and energy.
This reliance on foreign
minerals gives the United
States substantial economic
vulnerability.
This is why our legislators
need to support the Minerals
Policy Act of 2011, a bill that
would let us refocus and rein-
vest in American mineral
development.
Experts agree that mining
policy is outdated and in-
effective.
We need new policies to
guide us away from foreign
dependence and toward effec-
tive and responsible resource
production.

Lets steady our
drifting morals
T
hose people who still hold
to some ethical tenets and
have a moral compass are
now being called radical, intol-
erant and racist. We have lived
through a cultural flip; what
was wrong is right and what
was right is now wrong. Val-
ues have replaced virtues.
English historian Arnold
Toynbee chronicled 21 civi-
lizations in his history. Ours is
the first that does not enjoin a
moral law or educate our
young in moral instruction.
We are experiencing a slow-
motion moral collapse. Hav-
ing come loose from our mor-
al mooring in this brave new
world, we find ourselves adrift
in uncharted seas and have
decided to toss away the com-
pass, says Christian apol-
ogetic proponent Ravi Zacha-
rias in The Real Face of Athe-
ism.
Now, it is up to this post-
modern remnant to confront
the culture. Speak out in pub-
lic. Challenge ideas. Write
forcefully.
To do this, we must learn,
affirm and declare our beliefs
and live according to them as
God gives us light.
James U. Sinclair
Wright Township
THROUGHOUT OUR
rich history, North-
eastern Pennsylvania
residents have had
more than their share
of obstacles and trage-
dies to overcome.
Whether it was the
historic flood of 1936 or the abrupt end
of the anthracite industry in 1959, the
region has persevered and in many
instances thrived.
Its our spirit and sense of community
that separates our small, tight-knit com-
munities from others across the country.
When my wife, Tina, and I arrived in
the Wyoming Valley in 1998, we heard
stories of The Great Flood. We soon
learned that residents were not talking
about the Book of Genesis, but rather of
Tropical Storm Agnes in 1972. During
that summer, Misericordia Universitys
Alumnae Hall became a surrogate site
for Nesbitt Hospital, where 52 babies
were born.
Memories like that die hard, so the
flood of September 2011 brings back
vivid and disturbing memories for many
people. For those people in Bloomsburg,
Mocanaqua, Pittston, Plains Township,
Plymouth Township, Shickshinny and
West Pittston, it was dj vu. For resi-
dents of other areas, such as Harveys
Lake, Noxen and Tunkhannock, the
word flood now has a real and vibrant
meaning.
Yet in the 39 years since the Agnes
Flood impacted the region, the stories
of devastation have been mitigated by
tales of bravery, hard work and the
determination to rebuild. Above all, the
stories of people and institutions ex-
tending help and compassion to those
directly impacted by the flood have
been long lasting.
It is clear that since 1972 the charac-
teristics of the Valley with a heart
have not changed. Once again, people
on high ground opened their doors and
hearts to those evacuated from the
riverside communities. Once again,
people reached out to help those in
need. And once again, acquaintances
became good friends and good friends
became surrogate families.
Like many other large institutions,
such as the Dallas and Lake-Lehman
school districts, Misericordia University
became an evacuation site for those
people in the low-lying areas. I was
thoroughly impressed by the willing-
ness of our faculty, staff and particularly
students to receive our unexpected
guests and make them feel as though
our home was their home.
That feeling was multiplied in many
private homes and other institutions
throughout our area. Those people who
were able to help others did so without
a second thought, even if their own lives
were endangered. Many others heeded
the call for sandbag crews along the
Susquehanna and Lackawanna rivers
and in other strategic locations. Others
worked throughout the night to help
residents in Wilkes-Barres Brookside
neighborhood fend off the floodwaters
and then pitched in to help them recov-
er what was left of their homes. Emer-
gency responders and agencies sprang
into action to save what they could and
to comfort those in need.
The spirit of service to others was
exemplified throughout the region.
When the call was issued Sept. 8 for
volunteers, more than 400 members of
the Misericordia campus community
assembled in our Metz Dining Hall to
wait for their assignments. Nursing and
social work students were dispatched to
the Meadows Nursing Home near cam-
pus to help the elderly. Students at
Misericordia also volunteered to look
after the pets of those displaced by the
flooding. One evacuee said her dog had
never had so much attention and she
loves it.
The volunteerism did not end on our
college campuses either, as collegians
from Kings College, Misericordia and
Wilkes University fanned out through-
out the region. Misericordia students,
for example, helped the parents, teach-
ers and students of Holy Rosary Grade
School in Duryea relocate to the former
St. Marys School in Avoca so students
could resume classes in a timely fash-
ion. Forty-one members of the Miser-
icordia mens lacrosse team ventured
into Exeter and West Pittston on a re-
cent Saturday to help three families
make sense of their reclamation efforts.
In Noxen, teams of Misericordia stu-
dents have been working in the commu-
nity, particularly at the United Metho-
dist Church.
It was refreshing to see our volunteers
when they returned to campus. The
filth of the flood sites stained their
clothes, but their facial expressions and
comments exhibited a true sense of
satisfaction from a rewarding day of
volunteering. It will take time for our
neighbors and communities to rebound
completely, but they no doubt should
know that additional assistance is but a
mere phone call away.
Its overwhelming to see the re-
sponse of people we dont even know,
Holy Rosary kindergarten teacher Nan-
cy Rafferty said during the schools
relocation efforts. Its comforting to
know that people care and they are
there for you. The support has been
great.
Tales of extraordinary heroism and
stories of people helping friends, fam-
ilies, neighbors and even strangers col-
lectively demonstrate that this Valleys
heart still beats strong. In the weeks and
months ahead, other stories of unselfish
service no doubt will materialize.
Those people who helped in so many
ways deserve our deepest appreciation.
They also deserve the acknowledge-
ment that they and many others are the
reason that this place deserves the mo-
niker the Valley with a heart.
In our community, worst of times can bring out the best in people

icordia University in Dallas Township, which
has through the years hosted many evacuees
during high-water events and flooding.

Help create jobs:
Buy Made in USA
I
f 100 senators, 435 congress-
men and congresswomen
and one president in Wash-
ington, D.C., are serious about
getting the economy going in
the right direction and cre-
ating jobs, then why dont
more of them suggest to all
Americans that we should
stop buying products that are
imported and start buying
products that are made here?
Imagine how many jobs that
would create for Americans,
and how much it would help
the economy. No doubt it
would cost Americans a little
more for products that are
made in the United States.
But hopefully the products
would be of better quality, if
the companies make it a pri-
ority to make sure they were.
Its time to start taking back
America and remaking it into
the way it once was. Lets do
it, America!

Coal miner stamp
a labor of love
S
ept. 5 was one of my best
Labor Days!
I attended Mass at St.
Faustina Parish, Nanticoke.
The Rev. James R. Nash, pas-
tor, spoke highly of all work-
ing people, and his most pro-
found homily was about the
coal miners who worked, and
still work today, under sub-
human conditions. He also
had a display consisting of a
coal miners helmet, a statue
made out of coal representing
coal miners and a magnificent
picture of young breaker boys.
Rev. Nash spoke of how
compassionate, proud and
family-oriented these coal
miners were, working so their
families would never have to
work in the mines. The legacy
of the coal miner always
should be memorialized in
everyones hearts.
Father Nash, thank you!
This was our Labor Day a
day to remember everyone
who works, especially our coal
miners working under horren-
dous conditions. My dads life
was short-lived, caused by a
mining explosion while he had
five young children waiting for
him to return home.
We should saturate the
news media and let it be
known that our coal miners
stamp is surely overdue, and
our coal miners certainly
deserve our recognition.

Obama failures
dont ensure end
L
et us not be nave for one
second to think President
Obama is a vulnerable
candidate for re-election next
year. American voters tend to
be overly loyal even when
the evidence mounts up
against our better judgment.
President Obama has failed
in so many aspects. Who
among his supporters really
has benefited from his presi-
dency?
He seemingly is against the
rich, yet General Electric, one
of his biggest supporters,
owed no taxes on $14 billion
in profits, and its CEO sits on
President Obamas Economic
Recovery Advisory Board. I
guess even the president deals
with those darned rich peo-
ple. Of course he wont tell
you his re-election and legacy
depend on it.
President Obama had prom-
ised the world to the lesbian,
gay, bisexual, transgender
community in 2008. He has
delivered the repeal of Dont
ask, Dont tell. However,
before then, the same commu-
nity was largely ignored by the
president.
President Obama became
the first black president and
walked into the White House
with promises to the black
community. Almost four years
later he has produced an un-
employment level at 15.9
percent for blacks, nearly
double that of whites. His
inactivity on issues led the
Congressional Black Caucus
to hold job fairs in predom-
inantly black communities.
Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich.,
said during the debt ceiling
debate, We want him to come
out to our side and advocate,
not to watch and wait.
What of those union sup-
porters who banded together
in 2008 on the hopes that
their $400 million to help
Obama get elected would
somehow pay off for them?
Three years later and the
result is the AFL-CIO running
its own grassroots and ditch-
ing the president and the
Democratic Party. He has
been slow to push forward the
Employee Free Choice Act, if
even trying to budge it at all.
I could go on about why
people should be angry come
2012 and not vote for him, but
there will be those you cant
convince and shouldnt try.

Experience buoys
flood volunteer
O
n Sept. 8, I traveled to the
Luzerne County EMA
building to sit in on the
Flood Authority meeting.
Everyone was preparing to
cope with the changing weath-
er.
I volunteered to assist in
any manner. I was asked to
help take calls from individu-
als who had concerns about
the announcements to evac-
uate from the Valleys un-
protected areas and about the
rising river levels. The Rumor
Control Room eventually was
staffed by Luzerne County
personnel and volunteers. I
spoke with thousands of call-
ers.
Although county employees
were told not to report to
work, the Luzerne County
Human Services Department
had many employees working
with residents to relocate and
make arrangements for their
safety.
The emergency personnel
from every municipality
worked with the county, state
and federal authorities to
provide safety precautions and
rescues.
The respect I received from
the personnel in all depart-
ments and other organizations
was greatly appreciated. I
most respect the callers who
expressed their most immedi-
ate concerns.
Lives were saved.
My memories of each mo-
ment give me an overwhelm-
ing sense of confidence that
every citizen can offer some-
thing to the recovery. Sharing
your story from these events
will give others strength.
Sometimes just talking and
listening is enough to give an
individual the fortitude to
make another decision for
their future plans.
Do not judge anyone who
chooses to stay and build, or
who makes the choice to start
anew in another location.
I am amazed at the effort to
stay positive and movement
forward. Yes, we are all in this
together as many cope with
their extreme loss of a home
and everyday comforts. Others
work to offer their best effort
to assist.
Keep in mind those people
who are living with the clea-
nup still require respect, un-
derstanding and assistance for
many months ahead. Keep the
faith.
Kathy Dobash
Hazleton
Council candidate
states his case
G
overnment and house-
holds have spent beyond
their means. Luzerne
County took the lead and is
saddled with a debt approach-
ing a half billion dollars. The
time has come to pay the
piper.
I am the one candidate who
will tell you everything you
dont want to hear. We can
face our fate head-on now by
voluntarily sacrificing, or
unpleasant changes will be
forced upon us in the near
future.
Some people have accused
me of using tired sound bites
such as no tax increases or
no more borrowing. I am a
candidate who will walk the
walk not just talk the talk. I
will offer solutions, not empty
rhetoric.
As your county council
member, I would ensure that
we have another layer of
checks and balances by restor-
ing the powers lost by the
county controller under the
new charter. This can be done
by legislating into the admin-
istrative code the ability of the
controller to review purchases
and contracts prior to approv-
al of the executive branch
(county manager). This can
be done without violating the
covenants of the charter.
The council has no control
over hiring and firing within
the courts, but it does have
the ability to approve the
courts budget. It might have
been forgotten, but it is the
taxpayers who mandate how
much it requires to run the
courts, not the courts them-
selves. Luzerne County courts
are now overstaffed 20 to 25
percent more than similar-
sized counties. I would ad-
vocate for a budget in line
with similar-sized counties.
I am not a lawyer and I have
no relationship with the
courts; I am a taxpayer ad-
vocate. Let it be up to the
courts to decide whether the
money should be spent on
personnel or paper clips and
how much of each.
A cost analysis of each de-
partment will be done by the
controllers office, not depart-
ment heads, under the charter.
This a good thing.
Department heads always
will ask for more than they
would ever need. It will be,
however, up to the council to
hold the controllers feet to
the fire to ensure that per-
formance audits are done in a
timely fashion.
Implement into the admin-
istrative code that audits will
be done by different auditors
in a two-year, rotating sched-
ule versus the present system
that allows a cozy relationship
to develop between the audi-
tor and the audited.
I only have scratched the
surface in looking for ways to
run a leaner, more efficient
county government. Yes, there
might be cutbacks in county
services as well as county
personnel.
I reiterate: It is best to do so
now while we have some say
in the matter rather than
when it is forced upon us.

Shortages hamstrung every as-
pect of training; with no Arabic
speakers available, trainers spoke
Spanish to simulate a language
barrier failing to recognize
that many of the 1-184 soldiers,
being from Southern California,
were fluent in Spanish.
Some of Freys troops were
soon in revolt; several told the
Los Angeles Times then that
their training was so poor that
they feared their casualty rate
would be needlessly high. Frey
said he was incensed that they
had taken their concerns outside
the family evenif, privately, he
agreed with them.
There were questions about
Frey himself. After he clashed
withtrainers at a combat training
course, anArmy general declared
that Frey would get soldiers
killed, according to one docu-
ment. Records show that com-
manders were concerned with
the 1-184s swagger, with the bat-
talions focus on all-out war ver-
sus rebuilding Iraq.
The 1-184 was assigned to a
sector along the Tigris River that
was believed to be relatively safe.
We were given this vague, weak
guiding principle: Make no new
enemies, Frey said. In the com-
ing year, attacks on troops would
rise by nearly a third and the
number of roadsidebombs would
double.
Two nights after the 1-184 took
over the sector, a roadside bomb
blew up next to a convoy of
trucks. Within a month, the unit
lost its first soldier, killed as he
patrolled the roof of a police sta-
tion.
The 1-184 seized bomb detona-
tors and bottles of ether at check-
points. Locals complained after
Freys soldiers forced an Iraqi ci-
vilian to drag a dogs carcass off a
road because of concerns un-
founded that it concealed a
bomb.
At a memorial for a soldier
killed by a sniper, Frey spoke to
his men of brotherhood, loss and
determination. Before he was
done, he was pounding his fist on
the podium, summoning a wrath-
ful God. They would see the face
of their fallen comrade, he told
them, in the fire we bring down
on our enemies.
Some Army commanders saw
that attitude spread through the
battalion. In one case, 1-184 sol-
diers asked for a Hellfire missile
to destroy a house where they
thought a Baath Party boss was
hiding. The man turned out to be
a nobody, said Sgt. Maj. Gary J.
Coker, the Armys watchdog in
the field.
It was them against the
world, Coker said. They were
trying to fight World War III.
Frey, meanwhile, said he be-
came incensed at the effective-
ness of insurgents roadside
bombs andwhat he viewedas the
Armys sluggish response. To
prove the value of old-fashioned
foot patrols, he said, he walked
the 22-mile perimeter of his sec-
tor.
Frey declared the operation a
great success; the Army
though it has since begun using
more foot patrols regarded it
as a stunt. Frey was coming to be
viewed, one of his soldiers said,
as an incorrigible dog who is
toldtosit andnever quiteputs his
ass on the ground.
Then, one summer night, a
group of Freys soldiers detained
four men near a power plant. The
troops found no weapons
nothing linking them to the in-
surgency. But according to re-
cords and interviews, two detai-
nees were handcuffed and blind-
folded; one was shot with a stun
gun and kicked in the genitals.
The incident was captured on
videotape.
Frey alerted his superiors, but
the Army launched an investiga-
tion into the 1-184s command
climate into Frey himself.
We knew someone was going
down, said Maj. Danjel Bout.
But I didnt think for a second it
was going to be him.

NEWYORKEwan McGregor was
having a hard time keeping up with
Christopher Plummer.
At the suggestion of director Mike
Mills, McGregor had brought his 81-
year-old co-star to Barneys in Los An-
geles to pick up a scarf for Plummers
elderly gay character in Beginners.
But Plummer had other designs.
Christopher only wanted to get
skinny black jeans, McGregor recalls.
That was his main goal in life. When
we got there, he asked where the jeans
department was, andoff hewent tofind
skinny jeans.
That one of the finest living inter-
preters of Shakespeare and one of the
fewremaining greats of classical acting
was hell-bent on procuring a hipster
staple might seemodd. But then again,
Plummer has sel-
dom acceded to
the stereotypes of
old age.
Im glad (my
ambition) is still
there, Plummer
said in a recent in-
terview. If it fad-
ed, whats there to
live for? It makes
you appreciate
other things if you
keep working at
your job and you
love your job. Too
many people in
the world are un-
happy with their
lot. And then they
retire and they be-
come vegetables. I think retirement in
any profession is death, so Im deter-
mined to keep crackin.
Plummers remarkable late period
began with his acclaimed performance
as Mike Wallace in Michael Manns
1999 film The Insider, continued in
films such as 2009s The Last Station
(his performance as Tolstoy was nomi-
natedfor anOscar) andarguablyculmi-
nated with his staggering King Lear
at Lincoln Center in 2004.
In Beginners, Plummer gives yet
another career-capping performance.
He plays Hal, a 75-year-old who comes
out of the closet after his longtime wife
dies and shortly before terminal cancer
sets in. McGregor stars as his son in a

R.E.M. broke up Wednesday, with
an exit nearly as modest as its en-
trance.
You couldnt get much more hum-
ble than touring America in a beat-up
van out of the un-hip environs of Ath-
ens, Ga., in 1980. And when the band
went out this week, it wasnt as part of
a blow-out arena tour, but via a terse
announcement on its website.
A wise man once said the skill
in attending a party is knowing when
its time to leave, singer Michael
Stipe wrote at remhq.com. We built
something extraordinary together.
We did this thing. And now were go-
ing to walk away from it.
Some contended on social media
sites that the band overstayed its wel-
come. R.E.M. was still together?
tweeted hip-hop producer El-P. Acon-
tingent of fans and critics has main-
tained that R.E.M. really ended when
original drummer Bill Berry quit in
1997 over health and personal issues.
Cofounders Stipe, bassist Mike Mills
and guitarist Peter Buck carried on
for another14years without him, with
money-making tours but few endur-
ing albums.
Whats indisputable is that R.E.M.
will be most fondly remembered for
what it did with Berry from 1980 to
the mid-90s, and that legacy casts a
huge shadow. With the exception of
U2, Nirvana, Radiohead and possibly
a fewothers, no band has had quite as
much impact over the past three dec-
ades in balancing commercial success
with critical acclaim. Though the
band sold more than 70 million al-
bums, it was howthe band sold those
records that left the deepest imprint.
The bands ability to create a
healthy marketplace for itself was a
beaconfor other post-punkbands that
fought tomake personal, cutting-edge
music at a time when MTV was play-
ingmillion-dollar videos by assembly-
line rock and pop acts.
Were the acceptable edge of the
unacceptable, Buck once said. Along
the way the band produced a series of
classic albums, beginning with Mur-
mur in 1983.
Above all, there was the sound, an
intoxicating mix of rock drive and
Southern atmosphere, thick and mys-
terious.
Especially in R.E.M.s early days,
Stipe reinvented the role of the rock
front man, his voice becoming an-
other instrument in a heady musical
tapestry. That R.E.M. was essentially
a democracy, with the four members
sharing equally in the songwriting,
upended the typical band hierarchy
and created a template for others.

HOROSCOPE
HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
When you know someone
is extremely nice, youll
go out of your way to help
this person. You want to
see this type of person win
at life. You feel on some
level that the victory of a
very nice person is your
victory, too.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Your reality is the culmina-
tion of your choices. To
you, thats liberating. Sure,
your scene isnt absolutely
ideal right now. But you
truly have the power to
shape it into something
you can be quite proud of.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Theres a lot going on for
a loved one or colleague,
thanks to you. Only the
thanks are not forth-
coming as they should be.
Luckily, the good feeling
you get from helping is
pretty awesome, too.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Youll hear from someone
you were not expecting to
hear from. In your excite-
ment, you could forget to
ask what you want to know
about the events that have
occurred since your last
visit with this person.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Because youre so creative,
sometimes your mind reels
in directions that are not
so helpful to the situation
at hand. Youll have to
rein in your thoughts. Do
so with a kind inner voice
that honors your won-
drous creative spirit.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You thank people when
they do something for
you, even when that
something happens to
fit neatly into their job
description. Its this kind of
gratitude that will net you
special treatment today.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Everyone knows that raw
talent only goes about as
far as you can kick it. Your
talent level matters far
less than what you want
to be and how badly you
want it. If your desire is
strong enough, youll reign
supreme.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Your frankness will be
a timesaving tool. And
your scrupulous honesty
will win someones trust.
However, do be careful not
to offer opinions unless
your opinion is requested.
Wisdom is often silent.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Everyone likes to have
fun, though not everyone
really knows how. You find
this difficult to believe,
since laughter, joy and
playfulness come so easily
to you. Youll teach some-
one how to let go and live
a little.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). It all goes so well
until some weird bit of
news throws a wrench in
the works. This obstacle
sounds more daunting
than it really is. Assume
this is all going to work
out easily, and it will.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Youll flirt publicly with
someone, but you probably
wouldnt do the same in
private. You want to make
a person feel good, though
you dont necessarily want
your relationship with the
person to be any more
intimate than it is.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Youll try to create some-
thing and then realize its
not at all what you set out
to do. This kind of false
start is a natural part of
your process, so be patient
with yourself. If you have
to go back to the drawing
board, go happily.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Sept.
25). Competitive events
are featured. Over the
next six weeks, youll really
put yourself out there to
make something happen,
and the results will be ter-
rific. Then youll need to
rest and replenish your
energy. Loving exchanges
lead to favorable domes-
tic changes. Social fun in
December and January
opens new interests. Leo
and Aries people adore
you. Your lucky numbers
are: 10, 4, 33, 20 and 28.

DEAR ABBY
Bratty 4-year-old gives
swift kick to friendship
Dear Abby:
Im a licensed
cosmetolo-
gist with
27 years of
experience.
My friend
Kara brought her 4-year-
old son in for a haircut two
weeks ago. Damien would
not sit still. He kept pulling
the cape over his head, so
I finally removed the cape
and put it in a corner. As I
leaned in to cut his bangs,
he spat directly in my face.
I told him never to spit on
me again, and that I wouldnt
cut his hair until he could
behave.
In the past Damien has
hit me in retaliation because
he was in trouble. He once
tried to kick me in the head
as Kara carried him past
me. His parents enforce no
consequences for his bad
behavior. Time-outs con-
sist of him violently kicking
the door and throwing
things around his room
while screaming at the top
of his lungs.
I apologized to Kara for
becoming upset. It was
unprofessional. She apolo-
gized for Damien, saying
he was just trying to make
a funny noise and be silly. I
told her Id like an apology
from him, but she told me he
was sorry.
In all my years, I have
never encountered a kid
who behaved as badly as
Damien. When a child whips
his head and thrashes vio-
lently, he could be seriously
injured during a haircut.
I carry insurance in case
of injury, but Ill be darned
if I allow him to be my first
claim.
How should I handle
this? Our friendship seems
to have cooled since this
incident. Please help me.
Disrespected Stylist in
Washington
Dear Disrespected: You
handled the situation with
more grace than many in-
dividuals would have. You
should follow through on
your statement that you
wont cut the boys hair
until he can behave. There
are salons that cater to
small children, equipped
with all kinds of distractions
so the process isnt intimi-
dating or boring for them.
The next time Kara calls,
you should pleasantly direct
her to one within a 100-mile
radius that will suit her
needs. If your friendship
with Kara is based upon
your willingness to toler-
ate her childs misbehavior,
youll be lucky to be rid
of her.

Paid for by the Committee to Elect Joe Sklarosky Jr., Judge
film largely based on Mills own
family.
The role suits Plummer well
because Hal is randy, funny and
undimmed.
The wonderful thing about
Hal is that he has such a ball at
the end of his life, Plummer
says. It was a charming script, I
thought, and so lacking in senti-
mentality and self-pity. There
was none of that nonsense. Usu-
ally, when scripts like that come
along, you have to work so hard
to play against them because
theyre just so saccharine. And
the writers and producers will
tell you thats what the public
wants. Blow it out your bum!
Plummer long chafed at less
dynamic roles, none more than
his most famous part: Capt. Von
Trapp in The Sound of Music.
In his rollicking 2008 memoir,
In Spite of Myself, he surveys a
life begun amid Montreal privi-
lege, carried through boozy 50s
New York and swinging 60s
London, and ultimately spent in
reverence of, as he says, the
Thee-ah-tah. He also refers to
The Sound of Music as S&M
and laments the humorless and
one-dimensional Von Trapp.
We tried so hard to put hu-
mor into it, he says now. It was
almost impossible. It was just
agonytotrytomakethat guynot
a cardboard figure.
The role catapulted Plummer
to stardom, but he never took to
leading-men parts.
I hated playing them, he
says. They were so innocuously
and badly written and cardboard
figures, most of them. In my 40s,
I began to suddenly enjoy mak-
ing movies because the charac-
ter parts are so much more inter-
esting. I startedhavinga ball and
working with much better direc-
tors. After Michael Manns The
Insider, then the scripts im-
proved. I was upgraded! Since
then, theyve been first-class
scripts. Not all successful, but
worth doing.
All the while, Plummer would
gobackfor mymedicine onthe
stage. The Canadian-born actor
has performed most all of the
major Shakespeare roles
(among themHamlet, Macbeth,
HenryV, IagoandCyrano), often
at the StratfordShakespeare Fes-
tival in Canada. Plummer, who
lives with his wife of 41 years,
Elaine Taylor, in Weston, Conn.,
last year played Prospero in
The Tempest at Stratford.
Ive become simpler and sim-
pler with playing Shakespeare,
he says. Im not as extravagant
as I used to be. I dont listen to
my voice so much anymore. All
the pitfalls of playingthe classics
you can fall in love with your-
self.
Imdeterminedtofinishplay-
ingall the great parts, Plummer
says. I think I have, actually.
Plummer has been working at
a pace of about three films and a
play every year. He co-stars in
the highly anticipated The Girl
with the Dragon Tattoo, due
out later this year, and is prep-
ping roles in two films and one
play (though he declines to
name them).
PLUMMER
Continued from Page 1F
R.E.M.s success on an inde-
pendent label, I.R.S., also blazed
an end-run around entrenched
music industry gatekeepers.
When Warner Brothers signed
R.E.M. in the late 80s, the band
faced a challenge to its relevance
with the rise of Seattles rock
scene and the emergence of new,
harder-edged bands such as Nir-
vana and Pearl Jam. But R.E.M.
responded by making two of its
finest albums with Out of Time
(1991) and Automatic for the
People (1992). Both sold multi-
millions, andOut of Time yield-
ed the bands biggest hit, Losing
My Religion. R.E.M. re-signed
for a reported $80 million with
Warner in 1996, something of a
golden age for a music industry
awash in profit from compact-
disc sales and classic-rock reis-
sues. But the next year Berry quit
and gave the band his blessing to
continue as a three-piece. Stipe li-
kened R.E.M. to a three-legged
dog, and though the band con-
tinued to make albums, it was
never quite as potent.
The band began revisiting its
past on recent albums, with the
scrappier approach of Acceler-
ate (2008) harkening to the
Murmur era. Its 15th studio re-
lease, Collapse Into Now, re-
leased in March, rehashed parts
of its legacy from the 80s and
early 90s. It became the bands
10th album to crack the top 10 of
the Billboard chart, and it was
clear the band could have contin-
ued as a viable commercial enter-
prise for a good deal longer.
So the abrupt end was not dri-
ven by commerce. One suspects
the band finally acknowledged
that it really had exhausted its
creativity and that it would be
pointless to continue. Its a heck
of a legacy they leave, not only in-
fluencing countless bands from
anaesthetic andbusiness point of
viewbut pointingthe waybackto
important, overlooked under-
ground bands.

Satirist TomPerrottahas
had a good time putting
suburbia through its paces
before, in such wickedly
funnynovels as Little Chil-
dren, The Abstinence
Teacher and Election,
but thechallengehethrows
down in his sixth novel is a
doozy and makes for
what may well be his wil-
dest, most entertainingand
thought-provoking novel
yet. Instead of more con-
ventional terrors sex of-
fenders, infidelity, absti-
nence education, high
school politicsthebewil-
dered residents of upper-middle-class Ma-
pleton are faced with a great global crisis:
what to do whenthe Rapture arrives.
Of course, noones entirely sure that what
happened was the Rapture; they only know
that millions of people mysteriously van-
ished from Earth (Shaq and J.Lo among
them; nowordonwhat happenedtotheRe-
al Housewives of Miami). The Four Horse-
men of the Apocalypse havent yet put in an
appearance. Some experts are grimly deter-
minedtopersuadethoseleftbehind(orLeft
Behind, if you prefer) that the event was
merely a Sudden Departure, a Rapture-like
phenomenon andnot the real thing. Some
of the loudest voices making this argument
belonged to Christians themselves, who
couldnt help noticing that many of the peo-
plewhohaddisappearedonOct.1Hindus
and Buddhists and Muslims and Jews and
atheists and animists and homosexuals and
Eskimos and Mormons and Zoroastrians,
whatever the heck they were hadnt ac-
cepted Jesus Christ as their personal savior.
As far as anyone could tell, it was a random
harvest, and the one thing the Rapture
couldnt be was random. ... An indiscrimi-
nate Rapture was no Rapture at all.
This uncertain state of affairs has left the
remaindersreeling, andtheGarveyfamilyof-
fers a perfect example of the myriad ways in
which people react to shock, tragedy and a
necessary realignment of priorities. None of
the Garveys Suddenly Departed, though a
friend vanished in front of teenage daughter
Jill, who begins to neglect her schoolwork
and dabble in sex and drugs. Son Tomtakes
thingstoadifferent extreme: Hedropsout of
college tofollowthe healing prophet Holy
Wayne, who claims he can cure sorrow via
hugs and develops what

For carelessly agnostic
mom Laurie, Gods intru-
sion into her life couldnt
have been any clearer if
Hed addressed her from a
burning azalea. Husband

wake of the event, prompt-
ed by townspeople desper-

membering the Departed,
sure, but also starting up

Perrotta satirizes believers andnonbeliev-
ers alikeinTheLeftovers; nohumanfoible
is really safe here as he chronicles our weak-
ness, ourneediness, ourfears. Butdespitehis
sly humor, Perrotta is compassionate, and
hischaractersareall supremelyhuman, even
themost flawedandfoolish. Anddespitethe
books alarmingpremiseandits surprisingly
insightful exploration of grief and loss, in its
pages lurks a strangelycomfortingidea: that
even when the world turns upside down,
most of us keepchugging along.
TheLeftovers canbeirreverentlyfunny,
but it alsooffers aninspiringnugget of truth:
that humankind is resilient, that those sim-
ple pleasures Laurie dreads really are worth
living for: the satisfying thump of a softball
caught soundly in a glove; the promise of a
raucousparty; acuteboywhomightlikeyou;
dancing to Princes sublime Little Red Cor-
vette; theunforgettablesmell of anewbaby.
All those things, theyre small blessings, but
theyrelife. EnjoythemandPerrottas ter-
rific book while youcan.

LA CADIERE DAZUR, France
It is day four of cooking class at
La Bastide des Saveurs, and many
of the 14 students are looking for
chairstocatchafewminutesof rest
before the whisking begins. But it
isalsodessert day, soadeliciousre-
ward at the end is guaranteed.
Such are the joys, and challeng-
es, of a gourmet cooking class at
theestateof theHostellerieBerard
in La Cadiere dAzur, France.
Thereis worktobedone, andin-
structions to follow, during a day
that can stretch to seven hours.
The key also is to have fun. Who
wants to work on vacation?
The setting is movie-set-perfect:
Therustickitchenof a19thcentury
country house in the Provencal
countryside. Pass by the herb and
vegetable gardenonthe waytothe
kitchen with chef Rene Berard.
A cutting board and knife await
each student around the wooden
block table. Bowls of cubed butter,
sugar, yellowapples and pine nuts
givecluestothedaystasks. Berard
walks in, and its time to grab your
knife, or your pen to take notes,
and get cooking.
This class has its share of En-
glish speakers from Australia,
Canada, SouthCarolinaandChica-
go so the translator takes her
spot across from Berard. The veal
stock is already boiling on the
stove, andthesmell isheavenly. Ev-
ery so often during the day, an as-
sistant stops by to pour in another
bottle of red wine or drop in herbs,
vegetables even hooves.
Thecookinglineupincludestwo
kinds of tarts, lemon and apple,
along with chocolate fondant
(think: the original molten choco-
late cake), a wafer and fruit cre-
ation, anda Frenchclassic insauce
vanille bourbon.
The students take turns crack-
ing eggs, whisking (No air! cau-
tions the chef), rolling out pastry,
stirring sauces, even tossing
cookedapplesinthepanbeforethe
concoctionis set aflame. Dosome-
thing wrong, and you get a gentle
suggestion fromBerard. Do it cor-
rectly, andyouget a smileandAh,
perfect.
There is time to soak in the at-
mosphere. The windowis cracked
open and reveals a prototypical
Provence countryside. Copper
pans crowd the space above the
stove, and dried herbs in glass jars
linethecountertops. Thetilewalls
of red and yellowshout Provence.
Desserts do not make a meal, so
the lesson also includes an arti-
choke salad featuring artichokes
from the garden. The students
havehadahandintheentirelunch
menu, so the lamb that was de-
boned and put in a marinade days
agoisbroughtout. Berardarranges
the meat just so before he hands it
over toassistants tocook. That pot
of veal stock is strained; not much
isleftfromadayof work, butwhata
taste it has.
Then it is outside to the terrace
to enjoy the fruits of the students
labor. A table under canopy is al-
ready set with glasses, cutlery and
bottles of wine.
The students and Berard take
their seats, andthe foodparade be-
gins: breadandolive tapenade and
anchovy paste; ratatouille; lamb
with pistachio butter; vegetable
terrine; mashed potatoes; arti-
chokes with shallots, celery and
mushrooms. And desserts.
Conversation ranges from the
nightly parties (the seaport of Cas-
sis is on the nights agenda) to the
bouillabaissetothehoneyfarmvis-
ited earlier in the week.
One of the younger students, re-
cent collegegradArielleSaportaof
Chicago, marveled at the garden
tour earlier in the week. There
were four different types of basil,
she said.
The 1 p.m. stated ending time
stretches to 3:30 p.m., but no one
wants to leave.
Thereis talkthat Berardwill not
be doing this much longer. Some-
one asks him directly. His words
are translated: The day I dont
have a passion, Ill stop.
The students nod knowingly,
then offer a toast.
WHISKED AWAY IN FRANCE
By LINDA BERGSTROM
Chicago Tribune
MCT PHOTOS
Outside the walls of the French town of La Cadiere dAzur in Provence, visitors will discover great views of farms and vineyards spread
for miles over Provencal hills.
Students in the gourmet cooking class of the Hostellerie Berard
in La Cadiere dAzur, France, do most of the work.
La Cadiere dAzur is one of those picturesque French towns. It is big
enough to have several decent restaurants and small enough that you
feel you are experiencing life as a resident.
The charming Hostellerie Berard (hotel-berard.com) occupies several
buildings in town. It may seem as if you are on a treasure hunt as you
travel down corridors, up and down steps and across alleys to find your
room. Ours had no embellishments but was functional and clean. The
extras came in the fabulous view of the refreshing pool and enchant-
ing valley below. Rooms range from $145 out of season to $420 for a
suite in peak summer season.
The family of chef Rene Berard runs the hotel, the top-notch restau-
rant and the cooking school. Most cooking students opt for the longer
four-day class; costs, including room for five nights, breakfasts and
other events, start at $2,450. You can also do what I did and hook up
with a group for a one-day class; my rate was $215. The schedule
changes (classes begin again in September), so it is best to check for
availability.
The location gives you day-trip options in Provence and the Cote
dAzur. Cassis has the beach and the seaside restaurants. Le Castellet
has steep streets and touristy shops but a great regional wine shop at
its base. Bormes-les-Mimosas has wonderful flowers and towering
seascape views.
IF YOU GO
asci-fi talethat isnot repeat, not
a remake of Logans Run. Jus-
tin Timberlake, Amanda Seyfried,
Cillian Murphy and Vincent Kar-
theiser are some of the inhabitants
of this alternateuniversewhereev-
eryone stops aging at 25. The
catch? You only get to live one
more year unless youre rich
enough to buy yourself immortali-
ty.

Story and Photos by
Marianne Tucker Puhalla
Advertising Projects Writer
There are over 130 years of history
and character in this stately three-story
in historic Bear Creek Village. Located
on a 3.29-acre lot that has a seasonal
view of Bear Creek Lake, this promis-
ing property at 6101 Bear Creek Blvd.
is located on a hillside just south of
the intersection of Route 115 and the
White Haven Rd.
Listed by Stanley Pearlman of Cold-
well Banker Rundle Real Estate for
$400,000, this 5,127-square-foot home
offers six bedrooms and six baths, in-
cluding two suites, either one of which
would make a perfect master bedroom.
There will be an Open House
today from 1:30-3:30 p.m. where
you will able to see all the potential this
property has to offer.
Built in 1875, this home features a
striking layout, and an absolutely amaz-
ing number of windows that provide
views of the surrounding gardens and
large yard in every direction.
A covered wrap-around porch has
French doors that lead into a 20-by-15
foyer.
A right takes you into the stately
library, which measures an amazing
37-by-17, with the entire sidewall lined
