HARRISBURG Former
Penn State assistant football
coach Jerry Sanduskys status as
a free man could change if more
accusers surface and police file
new charges, as his lawyer fears.
Sandusky, now awaiting trial
on charges he sexually abused
eight boys over 15 years, could
then find himself with a high
bail he might not be able to pay,
criminal defense lawyers said
Tuesday.
Sandusky was released after
his Nov. 5 arrest on $100,000
unsecured bail, meaning he
didnt have to post any collater-
al.
His attorney, Joe Amendola,
told ABCs Good Morning

SCRANTON -- As the U.S.
Postal Service aims to adapt to a
changing business climate, post
office officials are studying the
impact of consolidating a num-
ber of mail processingfacilities in
Pennsylvania, including the one
in Scranton.
For the approximately 300 em-
ployees who work at the facility,
Tuesday evening offered not only
a chance to voice their opinions
and concerns about the move,
but also to tout the cost-effective-
ness and effi-
ciency of the

District of the
U.S. Postal Ser-
vice held a re-
quired public
meeting on the
proposed clos-
ing of the

cility. Under
proposed
changes, most
mail processing
at the Scranton

shift to the Le-

Kevin McA-

ations toAllentownis part of a se-
ries of proposed changes that are
part of a shift away from an over-
night service standard toward a
two-to-three-day service model.
McAdams outlined a number
of logistical measures that would
save money under the proposal,
which is still being studied by se-
nior administrators in the ser-

EXETERWhat wouldyoudo
with $60 million?
If youre anythinglike the folks
interviewedat the store that sold
a winning lottery ticket for that
amount on Saturday, you would
use a good portion of it to help
family, friends andthose inneed.
The Turkey Hill Minit Market
in Exeter sold a jackpot-winning
Powerball ticket on Saturday
with a payout totaling $59.9 mil-
lion the largest prize ever on a
single jackpot ticket sold in Lu-
zerne County, according to Eli-
zabeth Brassell, of the state De-
partment of Revenue.
Powerball winners have up to
one year from the drawing date
to claim their prize, and no one
had staked a claimas of Tuesday.
The winning numbers were 9-16-
17-28-30 and the Powerball was
11.
And while the estimated Pow-
erball jackpot will be reset to $20
million for tonights drawing,
lottery enthusiasts were back
playing that game and others at
the Wyoming Avenue store on
Tuesday, hoping for a little left-
over luck from Saturdays big
winner.
Aiming to better his chances,
Carmen Donato of West Pittston
went to the Exeter Turkey Hill to
play Pick 4, Cash 5, Treasure
Hunt and Mega Millions in addi-
tion to Powerball.
Asked what hed do if he won
$60 million in the lottery, Dona-
to said hed probably split the
money with his three sons and
their families.
Anything else?
Id move out of the flood
zone. We were flooded down

WILKES-BARRE Congress-
man Lou Barletta stumped for
one bill purportingtocrackdown
on illegal immigration and con-
demned another at an illegal im-
migration forum Tuesday at
Wilkes University.
The first bill was Barlettas
own, which he unveiled in June
and dubbed the Mobilizing
against Sanctuary Cities Act. It
would strip federal aid from so-
called sanctuary cities that forbid
local police officers from asking
questions about a persons immi-
gration status, which Barletta
numbers at more than100nation-
wide.
The second, titled the Legal
Workforce Act, recently made it
out of committee despite Barlet-
tas opposition. It would require
employers check the immigra-
tion status of new hires by using
the federal governments E-Verify
system, but in doing so it would
also forbid states and municipal-
ities from checking an individu-
als immigration status using the
same system unless the federal
government had already done so,
Barletta said.
What it states is that this law;
this bill will pre-empt any city
fromenforcingE-Verify if the gov-
ernment doesnt do it first, Bar-
letta said.
Barletta, R-Hazleton, said the
bill would negate the advances in
the rights of states and munici-
palities to enforce the law even
though the Supreme Court has
upheld their right to do so.
Arizonas illegal immigration
lawwas recently declared consti-
tutional by the court, andthe Ille-
gal Immigration Relief Act Bar-
letta enacted as mayor of Hazle-
ton, which was initially struck
down but on appeal made it to
the Supreme Court, was sent
back to the 3rd Circuit Court.
The forum was organized by
Brian McElwee, a Swoyersville
resident who writes about immi-
gration for Examiner.com. He
saidhebelieves theareahas seri-
ous immigration issues that we
need to deal with.
What I want to do is provoke
some thoughts, McElwee said.
Sharing the stage with Barletta
was Michael Cutler, a former Im-
migration and Naturalization
Service special agent who testi-
fied in the lawsuit over Hazle-
tons immigration law.
He characterized the federal
governments inability to enforce
the immigration laws currently
onthe books as a threat tonation-
al security but said the solution
to that problem is not as simple
as building more fences along
Americas borders.
Better interior enforcement,
including deporting illegal immi-
grants who have committed
crimes andcrackingdownonem-
ployers who hire illegal workers,
is a more effective approach, he
said.

Immigration in spotlight

WILKES-BARRE A Wap-
wallopen man investigators say
was the main cocaine supplier
in a drug ring has appealed his
case to the state Superior
Court.
Anthony Manchio, 51, was
sentenced last month to five to
10 years in state prison on 13
related charges he pleaded
guilty to in April.
Investigators said Manchio
and 22 other members of the
Outlaws Motorcycle Club were
charged in the ongoing investi-
gation known as Operation
Avalanche.
Manchio appealed his sen-
tence to the state Superior
Court with the assistance of his
attorney, Brian Corcoran. Ac-
cording to court records, the
investigation began in July 2008
when agents with the Bureau of
Narcotics Investigation unit
received information that the
group was selling large quanti-
ties of cocaine in the Wilkes-
Barre area.
Undercover agents raided the
Outlaws Motorcycle Club,
based in a clubhouse at 115 N.
Main St., Ashley. Thousands of
calls were intercepted through
court-authorize wiretaps that
led agents to identify Manchio
as the Outlaws main cocaine
supplier.
WILKES-BARRE Attorneys
involved in the homicide case of
two Hazleton men charged with
their role in the stabbing death
of another man met Tuesday to
discuss several requests before a
Dec. 12 trial.
Angel Sanchez, 20, and Ro-
dolfo Hiraldo Perez, 25, are
charged in the Jan. 16 death of
21-year-old Vladimir Ruiz.
Assistant District Attorney
Daniel Zola and attorneys De-
metrius Fannick, who repre-
sents Sanchez, and David Lamp-
man, who represents Perez,
discussed questions to ask po-
tential jurors, photos to be used
at the trial and other matters.
Fannick and Lampman also
said they are requesting to have
the joint trial of the two men
severed.
Luzerne County Judge David
Lupas said hell issue a ruling
on the matters discussed Tues-
day, and that another hearing
will be held on Dec. 5.

Officials try to save bank
Two state officials wrote a joint letter
to a Wells Fargo bank president
Wednesday asking that bank officials
reconsider a decision
to demolish the Shick-

Greater Pennsylvania
Region president,
state Sen. Lisa Baker,

state Rep. Karen
Boback, R-Harveys
Lake, said the loss of
the anchor institution
would severely erode
confidence other
employers and residents have in a

would take away from the community
a unique structure that should be a
target for historic preservation.

Pollution settlement reached
The U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency and Hanover Township battery
manufacturer Koehler-Bright Star Inc.

When state Wildlife Conservation Of-
ficer Jerry Kapral saw the black bear
that wandered through Edwardsville on
Nov. 1, he estimated the large bruin
weighed 600 pounds.
Turns out he was close.
The bear was harvested by a Warrior
Runhunter onMondaythesecondday
of the four-day bear season. Pennsylva-
nia Game Commission officials at the
agencys regional office in Dallas
checked the bear and estimated its live
weight to be 660 pounds. According to
the PGC, the male bruin was harvested
by Dale Kobal on Earth Conservancy
property in Nanticoke.
The bear was identified via tags
placed in its ears when it was trapped
and relocated by the PGC. It was 7 years
old, according to the agency.
Kapral last trapped the bear in Octo-
ber near the K.M. Smith Elementary
School in Sheatown, Newport Town-
ship. It was released on State Game
Lands 57 along the border of Sullivan
and Wyoming counties and traveled
through Edwardsville as it made its way
back toward Nanticoke, Kapral said.
It was killedless thana mile fromthe
school, so it did exactly what we
thought it would do, Kapral said, add-
ing he was happy to see the bear har-
vested by a hunter.
It eliminates a problem for people,
and the bear is utilized by a hunter. Its a
win-win, he said.
Thebear was thesecondlargest taken

PGC biologist Kevin Wenner said the
largest was a bear taken on State Game
Lands 13 in Sullivan County and had an
estimated live weight of 677 pounds.
Wenner said he trapped the bear for re-
search purposes in October 2010, and it
weighed 442 pounds at the time.

WILKES-BARRE A recount of
votes for a Wilkes-Barre Township
council seat showed no change in win-
ners in the general election, the Lu-
zerne County Bureau of Elections di-
rector said Tuesday.
Director Len Piazza said after an
hour-long recount Tuesday that anoth-
er tally of votes requested by longtime
Councilwoman Mary Yuknavich
showed Michael P. Wildes won by
eight votes.
Yuknavich requested the recount in
court papers late last week. Her re-
quest was granted Monday by county
Judge WilliamAmes-
bury.
Neither Yuknavich
nor her attorney,
Bruce Phillips, could
be reached for com-
ment Tuesday.
Wildes, a council-
man for the past
eight years, said that with the election
so close, and his win coming by only
eight votes, he expected a recount.
I would have done the same my-
self, Wildes said. It was a pleasure
working with Mary. Its sad to see her
go someone had to win and some-
one had to lose.
In Yuknavichs filing, she said she
and fellow petitioners Dorothy Kash-
ula and Michael Sromovski, both of
Wilkes-Barre Township, were present
during a tabulation of the votes for
council, including 100 absentee bal-
lots.
After a calculation, court papers say,
it was determined there was a tie be-
tween Yuknavich and Wildes.
(A) ... significant error has been
committed in the tabulation of votes
for the election of Wilkes-Barre Town-
ship council and (the petitioners) are
seeking a recanvassing of the voting
machines and absentee ballots...
According to certified election re-
sults, Yuknavich, a Republican, gar-
nered 489 votes. Wildes, a Democrat,
garnered 497 votes and won a seat
along with Katie Krutski Arnone, a
Republican, with 569 votes, and John
J. Jablowski Jr., a Republican, with
499 votes.
Piazza said Monday this recount
was the first the county has conducted
for a municipal race since electronic
voting machines were put in place in
2006.
Yuknavich loses out as W-B Twp. council vote reaffirmed
Democrat Michael P. Wildes won
by eight votes. Recount was first
under electronic voting.

WEST PITTSTON An Edwards-
ville man was arraigned Tuesday on
charges he stole items from a flood
victims home while installing carpet.
Robert James Hogan, 41, of the
Gateway Apartments, Heisz Street,
was arraigned by District Judge Joseph
Carmody on charges of theft by un-
lawful taking and receiving stolen
property.
West Pittston police charged Hogan
after James Butera, of Linden Street,
reported several pieces of jewelry had
been taken from his home.
Hogan was sent to the Luzerne
County Correctional Facility, where he
is being held on $100,000 bail. A pre-
liminary hearing is scheduled for Nov.
30.
Butera said he had the items secured
in a locked closet
but had that clos-
et unlocked on
Nov. 9 to have
carpeting in-
stalled.
Police said they
later learned Ho-
gan was one of
the two people in-
stalling carpet at Buteras home that
day, and that two rings and a gold coin
taken from Buteras residence. They
were sold by Hogan for $789.
On Friday, police said they met with
Hogan and he told them he was a
subcontractor responsible for prep
work, which includes laying the pad-
ding and track strips down for carpet-
ing to be installed.
Hogan said that after he completed
that work, he went into another bed-
room to begin working and saw a
square, wooden box in the closet.
He said he noticed jewelry and a
gold coin inside the box, and that he
took a gold ring with diamonds, a sil-
ver ring with a blue stone and a gold,
$5 coin that was in a casing so that it
can be worn as a necklace.
Police said Hogan told them he went
to Rainbow Jewelers and sold the two
rings and coin, and received $789. He
said he used the money to pay for food
and bills.
Police said Hogan apologized for
stealing the items.
According to court papers, Hogan
pleaded guilty earlier this month to a
misdemeanor drug-related charge. He
was ordered to pay a fine and other
costs.
In September, Hogan pleaded guilty
to a summary charge of criminal mis-
chief and was ordered to pay a fine and
other costs, as well as to a public
drunkenness charge in October.
Hogan is also awaiting trial in Lu-
zerne County Court on driving under
the influence charges. Court records
indicate he was referred to the Lu-
zerne County Alcohol Highway Safety
Program on Nov. 3.

ry harvest stood at 2,709 bears af-
ter two days. Last year, 2,542
bears were brought to Game
Commission check stations after
the first two days.
The highest total after the first
two days is 2,875 bears in 2005.
At the Dallas check station,
Wenner reported 107 bears
brought in as of Tuesday after-
noon, surpassing last years mark
of 79. In Luzerne County, 46
bears were harvested after the
first two days.
Kapral said the bear harvested
byKobal was trappedandrelocat-
ed several times from the Nanti-
coke area. The bear was feeding
from trash receptacles, he said,
and likely wouldve been the
source of more complaints in the
future.
He didnt get that big eating
acorns and blueberries, Kapral
said. He was putting on 100
pounds a year, which isnt unusu-
al for a healthy bear in an area
with abundant food sources.
Those abundant foodsources
mainly Dumpsters and garbage
cans -- is likely what drew the
bear back to the area after it was
released in State Game Lands 57.
Wenner wasnt surprised that
the bear returned to the area
where it was trapped so quickly.
Bears captured for nuisance
reasons oftentimes are backwith-
in a week, Wenner said. They
have a strong desire to get back.

Well, were taught to always

Students also asked if Medvec

A young boy asked how many
die in war. Medvec didnt have
that number, but said as few as
possible.
Medvec told the class to honor

WASHINGTONCount your
blessings this Thanksgiving. Its
good for you.
While it seems pretty obvious
that gratitude is a positive emo-
tion, psychologists for decades
rarely delved into the science of
giving thanks. But in the last sev-
eral years they have, learning in
many experiments that it is one
of humanitys most powerful
emotions. It makes you happier
and can change your attitude
about life, like an emotional reset
button.
Especially in hard times, like
these.
Beyond proving that being
grateful helps you, psychologists
also are trying to figure out the
brain chemistry behind gratitude
and the best ways of showing it.
Oprahwas right, saidUniver-
sity of Miami psychology profes-
sor Michael McCullough, who
has studiedpeople who are asked
to be regularly thankful. When
you are stopping and counting
your blessings, you are sort of hi-
jacking your emotional system.
Andhe means hijackingit from
out of a funk into a good place. A
very good place. Research by
McCullough and others finds
that giving thanks is a potent
emotion that feeds on itself, al-
most the equivalent of being vic-
torious. It could be called a vi-
cious circle, but its anything but
vicious.
He said psychologists used to
underestimate the strength of
simple gratitude: It
does make people
happier ... Its that in-
credible feeling.
One of the reasons
why gratitude works
so well is that it con-
nects us with others,
McCullough said.
Thats why when you
give thanks it should
be more heartfelt and
personal instead of a terse thank
younote for a gift or a hastily run-
through grace before dinner, psy-
chologists say.
Chicago area psychologist and
self-help book author Maryann
Troiani said she starts getting cli-
ents on gratitude gradually,
sometimes just by limiting their
complaints to two whines a ses-
sion. Then she eventually gets
themto log good things that hap-
pened to them in gratitude jour-
nals: Gratitude really changes
your attitude and your outlook
on life.
Gratitude journals or diaries,
in which people list weekly or
nightly what they are thankful
for, are becoming regular therapy
tools.
And in those journals, it is im-
portant to focus more on the peo-
ple you are grateful for, said Rob-
ert Emmons, a psychol-
ogy professor at the
University of Califor-
nia, Davis. Concentrate
on what life would be
without thegoodthings
especially people
such as spouses in
your life and how you
are grateful they are
there, he said.
Grateful people feel
more alert, alive, interested, en-
thusiastic. They also feel more
connected to others, said Em-
mons, whohas writtentwobooks
onthe science of gratitude andof-
ten studies the effects of those
gratitude diaries.
Scientists are not just looking
at the emotions behind gratitude
but thenuts-and-bolts physiology
as well.
Preliminary theories look at
the brain chemistry and hormon-
es in the blood and neurotrans-
mitters in the brain that are con-
nected to feelings of gratitude,
Emmons said. And the left pre-
frontal cortex of the brain, which
is also associated with positive
emotions like love and compas-
sion, seems tobe a key spot, espe-
cially in Buddhist monks, Em-
mons said.
However it works in the brain,
Emmons said there is little doubt
that it works.
Emmons, who has conducted
several studies on people from
ages 12 to 80, including those
with neuromuscular disease,
asked volunteers to keep daily or
weekly gratitude diaries. Anoth-
er group listed hassles, and oth-
ers just recorded random events.
He noticed a significant and con-
sistent difference. About three-
quarters of the people studied
who regularly counted their
blessings scored higher in happi-
ness tests and some even showed
improvements in amounts of
sleep and exercise.
Christopher Peterson of the
University of Michigan studied
different gratitude methods and
found the biggest immediate im-
provement in happiness scores
was among people who were giv-
en one week to write and deliver
in person a letter of gratitude to
someone who had been especial-
ly kind to them, but was never
thanked. That emotional health
boost was large, but it didnt last
over the weeks and months to
come.
Peterson also asked people to
write down nightly three things
that went well that day and why
that went well. That took longer
to show any difference in happi-
ness scores over control groups,
but after one month the results
were significantlybetter andthey
stayed better through six
months.
In order to be grateful for
something, we have toremember
that something good happened,
Peterson said. Its important to
remind ourselves that the world
doesnt always suck.
The power of saying thanks
Psychologists who have studied
gratitude give the following tips
for giving thanks in a way that
improves your emotional well-
being:
Keep a gratitude journal. Regu-
larly write down at night the good
things that happened to you that
day or that week. Dont let this
become rote; but put a lot of
thought into being grateful when
you count your blessings. If it gets
to be too routine, vary your sched-
ule and do it only a few times a
week.
Put the "you" in "thank you."
The personal part of gratitude is
what works well. So be more
thankful for people and how they
help instead of things. When
thanking someone, emphasize the
person instead of the action.
Think about how you would be
without the people close to you
and remember that when you are
thankful.
Find something that may have
gone wrong in your day or your
life and think of something good
from that time that helped you.
Remember how that helped you
survive the bad times.
Dont minimize the power of
"youre welcome." It is important
to acknowledge someone thanking
you and not slough it off by saying
its nothing. It is something
thats why someone thanked you.

Scientists are
not just looking
at the emotions
behind gratitude
but the nuts-
and-bolts physi-
ology as well.
Fewer than half of Pennsylva-
nias registered Republicans and
Independents approve of the job
President Barack Obama has
done, according to a poll con-
ducted by a national firm. The
survey found that 69 percent of
Democrats approvedof thepresi-
dents perform-
ance.
But even with
theoverall approval
rating in the Keys-
tone State at about
42 percent, only
one of the Republi-
can presidential
candidates match-
es up evenly if an
election were held
today.
Ina head-to-head
matchup, accord-
ing to Public Policy
Polling, former
Massachusetts
Gov. Mitt Romney
andObama eachreceived45per-
cent of the respondents support
with the rest undecided.
Obama defeated all of the oth-
er candidates according to the
poll. Against former Pennsylva-
nia Sen. Rick Santorum, he won
47-42. Against Texas Gov. Rick
Perry, he would win 51-38.
Against TexasCongressmanRon
Paul the president wouldwin46-
42. Against former House Speak-
er Newt Gingrich, Obama would
win 49-43 and against business-
man Herman Cain, Obama takes
the state 53-35.
Obama defeated Arizona Sen.
John McCain by 10 points in
Pennsylvania in the 2008 elec-
tion.
None of the Republican candi-
dates had an approval rating
above Romneys 32 percent. Per-
ry had the highest unfavorable
percentage at 66.
RyanTronovitch, aRepublican
National Committee regional
spokesman, said the poll results
are a clear reminder that Rom-
ney is probably the only one of
the Republican candidates who
can beat Obama at this point.
The Raleigh, N.C.-based poll-
ingfirmsurveyed500Pennsylva-
nia voters from Nov. 17-20. The
margin of error is +/-4.4 percent.
The poll was not paid for or au-
thorized by any campaign or po-
litical organization and
the survey was con-
ducted through auto-
mated telephone inter-
views.
A similar poll was
conducted by the com-
pany five months ago
and the latest results
showObamas approval
rating dipping from 46
percent.
Jeff Brauer, apolitical
science professor at
Keystone College in La
Plume, said the poll re-
sults have to be some-
what concerning to the
presidents campaign.
However, they certainly are not
the death knell for Obamas elec-
tion prospects in Pennsylvania.
Tronovitch said that digging
deeper into the polls findings
gives Romney some hope here.
Obama and Romney are tied
at 45 percent each, but if you dig
in on the undecided voters, only
24 percent of them approve of
Obamas job performance to 70
percent who disapprove. If
those folks really had to make a
decision today its likely theyd
move in Romneys direction and
hand himthe state.
Brauer said Independent vot-
ers are key andnotedObama has
only a 45 percent approval rating
among that sector.
This is the number he needs
to move, Brauer said.

Some postal prices rising
T
he cash-strapped U.S. Postal Ser-
vice is raising rates for its more
profitable express mail and priority
mail shipping next year, part of its
efforts to stave off bankruptcy.
The new prices take effect Jan. 22
and include the introduction of a new
flat rate of $39.95 for express mail
boxes, with separate increases for let-
ters. Previously, prices were $13.25 or
higher based on package weight and
distance.
The Post Office said the rate hikes
still make its shipping the best value
compared to private companies such as
UPS and FedEx.
The new prices amount to a roughly
5 percent increase. They are in addi-
tion to a previously announced 1-cent
hike in first-class mail to 45 cents. The
independent Postal Regulatory Com-
mission will review the proposed hikes
before they take effect.
TRIPOLI, LIBYA
Gadhafis son to be tried
The International Criminal Courts
chief prosecutor on Tuesday said
Moammar Gadahfis captured son and
onetime heir apparent can be tried in
Libya, provided that international
standards are met.
ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocam-
po was in Tripoli, the Libyan capital, to
confer with the countrys transitional
leaders about the handling of Seif Is-
lam Gadhafi, who was captured Sat-
urday in the southern Saharan hinter-
lands and is being held in the western
town of Zintan.
The international court has charged
the younger Gadhafi with crimes
against humanity committed during
attempts to suppress the uprising that
toppled his father, who was slain last
month while in the custody of his cap-
tors during the fall of his hometown,
Sirte. But the countrys transitional
leaders want Gadhafi to face justice in
Libya.

CAIRO Egypts military leader
promised to speed the transition to civil-
ianrule, saying Tuesday that presidential
elections will be held by the end of June
2012.
But the major concession was immedi-
ately rejected by tens of
thousands of protesters
in Cairos Tahrir
Square, who responded
with chants of Leave,
leave! now.
Field Marshal Hus-
sein Tantawi vowed
that landmark parlia-
mentary elections will
start on schedule on Monday, the first
vote since longtime authoritarian leader
Hosni Mubarakwas oustedinanuprising
nine months ago. And he said the mili-
tary was prepared to hold a referendum
on immediately transferring power to a
civilian authority if people demand it.
Tantawi said he has accepted the resig-
nation of Prime Minister Essam Sharafs
civilian government and politicians who
attended a 5-hour crisis meeting with the
rulinggenerals saidthemilitaryintended
toreplace Sharafs cabinet witha nation-
al salvation government.
It was not clear who might head the
newCabinet, but names of a couple presi-
dential hopefuls were mentioned.
Our demands are clear, said Khaled
El-Sayed, a protester fromthe Youth Rev-
olution Coalition and a candidate in the
upcoming parliamentary election.
We want the military council to step
down and hand over authority to a na-
tional salvation government with full au-
thority.
He also demanded that the command-
er of the military police and the Interior
Minister, who is in charge of the police,
be tried for the horrific crimes of the
past fewdays, when29peoplewerekilled
in clashes, most of them in Cairo.
The standoff culminated four days of
clashes and demonstrations around the
country that have constituted the most
sustainedchallenge sofar tonine months
of military rule. It plunges the country
deeper intoa crisis that may only hamper
the democratic transition the protesters
are fighting for.
In Tahrir Square, the atmosphere was
reminiscent of the 18-day uprising that
toppled Mubarak, with jubilation over
the large turnout mixed with the seeth-
ing anger directed at the military.
On Tuesday, the protesters had called
for a million people to turn out and drew
a massive crowd of tens of thousands.

MINEOLA, N.Y. Thirteen
more current and former high
school students from an affluent
community on New Yorks Long
Island were charged Tuesday in
a widening college entrance ex-
am cheating scandal, bringing
the total to 20.
Nassau County District Attor-
ney Kathleen Rice said four of
the new defendants are accused
of taking payments of $500 to
$3,600 to stand in for students
on SAT or ACT exams.
The other nine are accused of
paying the alleged impostors to
stand in for them.
In total, prosecutors allege
that 15 high school students got
five others to take tests for
them.
Rice said prosecutors actually
suspect 40 students were in-
volved in cheating but the two-
year statute of limitation had
expired for many.
Honest hard-working stu-
dents are taking a back seat to
the cheaters, she said at a
news conference. This is a sys-
tem begging for security enhan-
cements.
Tuesdays announcement fol-
lows the arrests of seven people
in September.
The scandal prompted New
York State Sen. Kenneth Lavalle
to convene a hearing on test
security, and a firm run by for-
mer FBI Director Louis Freeh
was retained to review security
on standardized testing proce-
dures.

Prosecutors allege that 15
high school students got five
others to take tests for them.
The Associated Press
WASHINGTONThe fail-
ure of a special deficit-reduc-
tion supercommittee sets up a
year-end battle between Presi-
dent Barack Obama and a dys-
functional Congress over re-
newing a payroll tax cut and
jobless benefits for millions.
At the same time, the debt
panels failure triggers deep,
automatic cuts to the Penta-
gon budget, beginning in
2013, that defense hawks al-
ready are dedicated to un-
winding. Domestic programs
would bear cuts as well.
And the panels failure puts
taxes and out-of-control defi-
cits front and center in next
years presidential and con-
gressional campaigns. The
elections outcome is likely to
determine whether Bush-era
tax cuts that expire in Decem-
ber 2012 will be fully renewed
or whether Obama can force
Republicans to make conces-
sions on taxes.
Obama supports renewing
most of the Bush tax cuts but
wants to allow tax rates for
wealthier earners to go up.
He wont sign a full exten-
sion, saidasenior administra-
tion official, requiring ano-
nymity to discuss White
House strategy. Were going
to be in the position at the end
of next year where the presi-
dent is saying: Im not going
to sign a full extension, but
send me the middle-class tax
cuts.
The panels failure to reach
agreement on how to cut def-
icits by $1.2 trillion or more
over 10 years was not unex-
pected but grew out of intrac-
table divisions over spending
and taxes that promise to
hound lawmakers through
2012 elections that could sort
it all out.
Stock prices plummeted at
home and across debt-scarred
Europe on Monday as the pan-
el ended its brief, secretive ex-
istencewithout anagreement.

BEIRUT Turkeys prime
minister said Tuesday that Sy-
rias president must step down
over the countrys crackdown on
dissent, ratcheting up the pres-
sure on the increasingly isolated
Bashar Assad.
Turkeys call came as Syrianac-
tivists reported that five people
including four children
were killed Tuesday.
For the welfare of your own
people and the region, just leave
that seat, Recep Tayyip Erdogan
of Turkey said in a televised
speech.
He reminded Assad of the
bloody end of Libyan leader
Moammar Gadhafi and those of
past dictators, including Adolf
Hitler.
If you want to see someone
who has fought until death
against his own people, just look
at Nazi Germany, just look at Hit-
ler, at Mussolini, at Nicolae Ceau-
sescu in Romania, he said.
World leaders are turning on
Assad in quick succession. The
military crackdown on an 8-
month-old uprising against As-
sads regime has killed nearly
4,000 people.
President of
Syria urged
to quit job
Turkeys prime minister says
Assad should step down for
good of country and region.

WILKES-BARRE A Texas-
based natural gas company has
come to an agreement with
Dallas Township residents
whosuedtostopinstallationof
a pipeline near their proper-
ties. As a result, construction
of the pipeline will begin early
next year, the company said.
Chief Gathering LLC,
throughits spokeswomanKris-
ti Gittins, said that because an
agreement has been reached,
the company is withdrawing
its counter lawsuit filed in Sep-
tember against the residents,
Patrick and Patricia Dougher-
ty, William and Patricia Wat-
kins, Scott and Kelley Watkins,
and Jeffrey and Jo Ann Dick-
son.
In Sep-
tember, the
residents of
Goodleigh
Estates filed
a lawsuit
against Tuu-
la DAnca,
who they al-
leged impro-
perly gave
permission
to the gas
company to
construct
the pipeline on or near their
property.
Chief filed a counter claim
seeking close to $20 million in
damages that includedthe cost
of constructiondelays, permits
and lost business. Chief also al-
leged the families were using
the lawsuit to delay and even-
tually halt the pipeline project.
Gittins said Tuesday that
with the withdrawal of the
companys lawsuit, the lan-
downers have mutually agreed
towithdrawtheir suit. She said
the pipeline project will pro-
ceed as planned on the proper-
ties, and construction is ex-
pected to begin in January.
No other details about the
agreement were released Tues-
day.
The residents suit said
Chief should not be permitted
to construct a pipeline because
plaintiffs who purchased land
from DAnca were not aware of
an existing contract for the
pipeline right-of-way.
The residents said cov-
enants in the development pro-
hibit underground pipelines.
Chief Gathering, a subsidi-
ary of Chief Oil and Gas, plans
to build a pipeline that will car-
ry natural gas that will be ex-

NUANGOLA After a some-
times contentious debate, bor-
oughcouncil unanimously voted
Monday night to appoint Coun-
cilman Joseph Tucker to serve as
mediator to the Federal Emer-
gency Management Agency in
dealing with the federal agency
in obtaining whatever federal
funding might be available to the
borough after flooding in Sep-
tember.
The actionwas takenafter Me-
lissa Weber, secretary-treasurer,
reiterated that Nuangola, under
the flood emergency declared by
FEMA encompassing all of Lu-
zerne County, might be eligible
for relief funding, even though
the borough is not in a flood
zone. She originally made that
proposal at the October meet-
ing.
When it was stated that Mayor
Norman Rule and council Presi-
dent Regina Plodwick had previ-
ously met with FEMA officials,
Councilman John Kochan asked
Where is a list of damages?
When Rule said damages were
articulated verbally and nothing
as yet had been laid out in writ-
ing, Kochan questioned the val-
idity of that and debated that
hearsay is that the borough is
seeking up to $450,000.
Siding with Kochan, Tucker
said he thought Nuangola didnt
sustain $10,000 in damage. I
dont want to be part of anything
thats not truthful and 100 per-
cent honest, he said.
When Weber said FEMA per-
sonnel will come in and do an as-
sessment before any funding is
earmarked and that it is FEMA
policy is to work with only one
specifically designated official,
Tucker was nominated and
elected.
In subsequent discussion, it
was submitted that flood dam-
age in the borough is confined to
areas of North End Road, 10th
Street and the municipal build-
ing.
There was also debate on bor-
oughs 2012 budget, which led to
council scheduling a special
meeting on Dec. 2 at 4:30 p.m. to
reviewa spendingplanthat is be-
ing prepared by Kochan, finance
and budget chairman. Because
the borough has to have a budget
in place by Dec. 31, Plodwick
pressed Kochan about the lack of
progress.
When I get all the stuff, I can
go to work, but that hasnt hap-
pened yet, he said.
He said he needed financial in-
formation fromthe other depart-
ment heads, as well as fromWeb-
er. When Weber submitted a
summary of accounts, which she
said was computer generated
through Quick Books, Kochan
responded that he now had a
large part of the information he
needed and agreed to a Dec. 2
meeting.
Plodwick proposed that adop-
tion be at the monthly public
meeting on Dec. 19.
Under the threat of legal ac-
tion, andat the initiative of Tuck-
er, council actedtomove the pro-
posed staging area for the sani-
tary sewer system to a location
near the recycling center instead
of having it at the community
recreation area. This action fol-
lowed a protest by Nuangola res-
ident Ronald Walsh, who argued
in a letter authored by attorney
Paul Pugliese that water runoff,
as well as possible oil and gaso-
line seepage, presented a threat
to his property, which is located
adjacent to the recreation site.
Tucker concurred that in his
view, a threat existed.
Council also retained Bonita
and Rainey of Plains Township
as auditors at a reported cost of
$3,050.

Borough council talks flood relief funds

PITTSTON TWP The townships
preliminary $2.1 million budget for
2012 includes no increase in taxes for
general fund purposes.
However, the supervisors passed a
motion to enact a temporary emergen-
cy services tax of a quarter mill to raise
$83,200 for fire and ambulance vehi-
cles. Amill is a $1taxonevery$1,000of
assessed property valuation.
The tentative spending plan, which
supervisors approved Monday night,
includes upgrades to police equipment
and a 3.5 percent salary increase for
employees, not including supervisors.
Township Secretary John Bonita
said the supervisors wanted to in-
crease the caliber of emergency equip-
ment.
Bonita also told residents that recy-
cling is paying off for the township.
The township is reimbursed on ton-
nage and received a $37,746 recycling
grant from the state for 2009. More is
expected for 2010 and 2011.
Supervisor Ron Marcellini recog-
nized the fire and ambulance depart-
ments for doing such an outstanding
job for the township.
Supervisor Steve Rinaldi requested
that Oriole Park close at 6 p.m. daily,
effectiveNov. 1anduntil March31. The
supervisors approved the motion. Ri-
naldi said that the move was necessary
because of vandalism, darkness and
the safety of residents.
In new business, supervisors plan to
openbids Nov. 30for contracts for 2012
for trash bags and refuse and recycling
services. The township will advertise
for the bids.
Current service contracts for bags,
refuse and recycling will expire on
March 31, 2012.
Solicitor John Finnerty, reporting
updates onthe OakStreet andNorman

were made onOak Street, andNorman

of Sacrifice, on Monday with a program and educational items.
HAZLETON The proposed
2012 city budget includes a 10
percentincreaseintaxesforcity
property owners, city officials
said at Monday nights council
meeting.
The proposed $4,060,000
spendingplanabout $100,000
bigger than this years budget
includes an increase in the real
estatetaxratefrom2.83millsto
3.23 mills, which would mean
about a 10 percent increase for
property owners.
Mary Ellen Lieb, director of
administration, said the in-
crease amounted to about $20
moreannuallyfortheownerof a
property assessed at $100,000.
The meeting that was gener-
ally well attended by city resi-
dentscenteredonareviewof in-
come and expenditures by the
city government.
We cannot increase our bur-
den on the taxpayer, said
Councilman Jack Mundie, who
cast the lone dissenting vote a
3-1 decision. Many simply do
not have enough money to pay
more taxes.
Lieb indicated the budget
presented reflected an increase
of 24 percent in the area of
health care costs, which would
be sharedbetweencity employ-
ees and the city according to
union contracts.
Mundie also questioned
whether recent increases incer-
tain union contracts might re-
sult in other unions also re-
questing increased benefits.
Mayor Joseph Yannuzzi re-
sponded by saying that any
union can ask for an increase,
but that doesnt mean that they
would necessarily receive it.
Mundie said any increase
would burden the taxpayer. He
also said that 2012 is the last
year that the city will get ap-
proximately $600,000 from the
mine reclamation project and
that this would mean that the
citywouldneedtoeitherreduce
expenses or increaserevenuein
the near future.
The second reading of the
budget is set for Dec. 7 at 5:30
p.m. at councils regular meet-
ing.

port shows Scranton as having
improved overall efficiency (20
percent vs. 4 percent) compared
to Lehigh Valley.
Employees and local officials
want the Scrantonfacilitytostay
open and jobs at the Lehigh Val-
ley center moved to Scranton.
Our service is excellent, our
delays are nonexistent, and our
overtime is minimal, saidKevin
Gallagher, president of the
Scranton Local of the American
Postal Workers Union.
The closing of this facility
could cripple the fragile local
economy of Northeastern Penn-
sylvania, Lackawanna County
Commissioner Corey OBrien
added.
We should be relocating jobs
said. The postal service is in a
situation where we as an agency
are surviving paycheck-to-pay-
check. If we were a Fortune 500
company, we would be forced to
declare bankruptcy.
Scranton facility employees --
some of whom previously
worked at a similar facility in
Wilkes-Barre that was closed in
2009 turned out in force to de-
fend work that they said is more
efficient and cost-effective than
that which is done in Allentown.
Many cited an August 2010 re-
port by the Office of the Inspec-
tor General for the U.S. Postal
Service as proof that the postal
service can save money by keep-
ing jobs in Scranton.
According to figures distrib-
uted by employees, figures from
the 2010 study show that Scran-
ton has a lower rate of delayed
mail delivery (4.2 percent vs. 7
percent) and a lower cost of
processing mail ($17.87
vs.$24.16) than Lehigh Valley.
They also said the same 2010 re-
from the Lehigh Valley to Scran-
ton, not the other way around.
Tom Gavin, president of Na-
tional Association of Letter Car-
riers Branch17 inScranton, took
aim at a congressionally man-
dated payment that takes nearly
$6 billion of revenue out of the
postal service as a reason behind
the proposed consolidations.
Yes, the postal service is in fi-
nancial trouble, but thats be-
cause of a $5.8 billion payment
we have to make every year for
our future retirees benefits, Ga-
vin said.
Postal officials stressed that
the proposals are still under re-
view, and that a decision is not
expected until late December or
January.

Neither Gingrichnor anyother
Republican mentioned that Oba-
ma, like President George W.
Bush before him, signed legisla-
tion extending the Patriot Act
WASHINGTONRepublican
presidential hopefuls spoke up
strongly for the anti-terror Patri-
ot Act in campaign debate Tues-
day night, saying it should be ex-
tended or perhaps strengthened
tohelpidentify andcapture those
who would attack the United
States.
Only Rep. Ron Paul of Texas
among eight presidential hope-
fuls dissented, arguing that the
law is unpatriotic because it un-
dermines our liberties.
In a debate on national securi-
ty, Minnesota Rep. MicheleBach-
mann said President Barack Oba-
ma has essentially handed over
our investigation of terrorists to
the American Civil Liberties
Union. Our CIAhas no ability to
investigate, she said. Bachmann
did not cite any examples to but-
tress either of her claims.
The debate unfolded six weeks
tothedaybeforetheIowacaucus-
es inaugurate the competitionfor
delegates to the Republican Na-
tional Convention. The venera-
ble DAR Constitution Hall was
the site a few blocks from the
WhiteHouseandas closeas most
if not all of the GOP hopefuls are
likely to get.
The Patriot Act is one of the na-
tions principal tools in ferreting
out terrorist threats but has often
provoked dissents from both lib-
erals and conservatives who ar-
gue that in the name of national
security it erodes constitutional
protections.
Paul made that point, and said
other investigative techniques
captured Oklahoma City bomber
Timothy McVeigh.
Gingrich jumped at that.
Thats the whole point. Timothy
McVeigh killed a lot of Ameri-
cans, the former House speaker
said. I dont want a lawthat says
after we lose a major American
last May. In a race that is con-
stantly in flux, Gingrich has
emerged as Romneys principal
rival atop the public opinion
polls. As he looked around him,
hesawother rivals whoonceheld
that position Bachmann, Tex-
as Gov. Rick Perry and business-
man Herman Cain among them.
The debate ranged widely over
foreign policy issues, but neither
the format nor the moderator
permitted all eight candidates to
answer any one question. That
produced a somewhat disjoined
event in which there was relative-
ly little back-and-forth among the
rivals.
Asked if he would support an
Israel attack on Iran to prevent
the Islamic regime from acquir-
ing a nuclear weapon, Cain said
he would want to know what the
planwas andhave anunderstand-
ing of its chance of success.
Gingrich said he would bomb
Iran only as a last resort and with
a goal of bringing about the
downfall of the government.
There was more disagreement
when it came to the war in Af-
ghanistan.
Former Utah Gov. Jon Hunts-
man said it was time for the Unit-
ed States to withdraw nearly all
its troops.
Former Massachusetts Gov.
Mitt Romney said top generals
disagreed with that and asked
Huntsmanif hewas talkingabout
a withdrawal beginning immedi-
ately.
Did you hear what I said?
Huntsman asked across the de-
bate stage, noting that under the
Constitution the president is
commander in chief. A few mo-
ments later, referringtoVietnam,
he said a president had listened
to the generals in 1967, and the
outcome was not in the interests
of the United States.
Also on the debate stage were
businessman Herman Cain and
former Pennsylvania Sen. Rick
Santorum.

WILKES-BARRE A former
Luzerne County prison guard
who alleged she was sexually ha-

tosettleafederal lawsuit shefiled
against the prison, according to
court records.
Angela Sweet of East Main
Street, Glen Lyon, filed suit
against theprisoninMarch, alleg-
ing officials failed to address her
complaints that shewas beingha-
rassedbyRobert Turner, aformer
lieutenant at the prison.
Details of the settlement,
whichwasreachedTuesday, were
not immediately available.
Sweet alleged Turner, who was
fired in July 2008, placed his
hands on her shoulder and asked
her to participate in a sexual orgy
with him and another woman.
Sweet said she reported the inci-
dent to prison officials, but they
took no action.
The lawsuit was one of two
suits that were filed against the
prison relating to alleged sexual
harassment by Turner. The other
suit, filedbyLeahBeckleyof Ben-
ton, remains pending in federal
court.
Turner also filed a federal law-
suit against the prison, alleging

rassment allegation against him,
which he denies, as an excuse to
fire him. He maintains he was ac-
tually fired for political reasons.
That suit also remains pending.

JimLehrer
The PBS newsman, who has moderated 11 general election presidential
debates, said that running crowded, pre-primary debates such as this
seasons Republican match-ups is extremely difficult. Last nights GOP
forum, the 11th of the year, was held in Washington and televised on CNN.
Writer optimistic about
new councils abilities
F
ormer British prime minister Winston
Churchill once said: Im an optimist. It
doesnt seem much use being anything
else.
Im hoping there are great things ahead
for Luzerne County, as January will usher
in the first change in county government
structure since rocks were soft. Although
the past few years have been unsettling for
many people, and there are bound to be
some glitches moving forward, the new
county council seems well-balanced and
capable, giving us every reason to remain
optimistic.
Looking back, its important to thank the
three sitting commissioners, Maryanne
Petrilla in particular, for getting us through
the hard times to the threshold of this new
beginning. Current county employees
deserve our gratitude, too, for their ability
to keep calm and carry on true profes-
sionals all.
Criticism is one thing theres unlikely to
be a shortage of, at least in the early going.
To that end, Ive decided to refrain, for the
foreseeable future, from writing letters to
the editor on political topics. This, for two
reasons: to make room for newer, smarter
voices and to underscore my firm belief
that most people in government, elected
or appointed, are not in it for themselves.
Given the opportunity to perform suc-
cessfully in the public interest, they will.

Worker: Holiday policies
compromise my religion
I
work at an area hospital and an email
listing the acceptable neutral seasonal
holiday decorations was sent to employ-
ees to make sure they complied with the
guidelines. Snowmen, holly, sleighs, etc.,
are acceptable; but Santa, angels and men-
orahs are not acceptable.
I am a Christian and never had a prob-
lem seeing the menorah placed near the
large Christmas tree in the hospital lobby
to celebrate the Jewish holiday of Hanuk-
kah. I have seen the faces of sick children
break into smiles when they heard Santas
Ho, ho, ho and bells jingling as he made
his rounds giving each child a small gift.
Not any longer we are not allowed to
have Santa as a decoration, as he is a deriv-
ative of Saint Nicholas.
When my children were in school, the
minute of silence in the morning after they
saluted the flag was stopped.
I am aware of the American Civil Liber-
ties Union and for what it stands. What I
would like to know is who will speak for
the Christians? Everyone is so worried
about offending others, what about our
feelings? Why is it OK to take what we
hold holy away from us?
People came to this country seeking
religious freedom. I fear that in years to
come our religious freedom will be so
oppressed that it will resemble that period
of time that caused our forefathers to seek
out a country that would allow them to
pray to their own God without reprisal.
We used to have a chapel at the hospital
where people could pray for their loved
ones. It had a crucifix and it simulated a
church altar. Not any longer; we now have
a spiritual center with a few votive can-
dles, two kneeling benches, a soft whoosh-
ing sound resembling a brook, but no
cross.
How has this happened in this country?
People fought for religious freedom and
now our religious freedom is being taken
away. Who will help us keep our religious
beliefs alive? It saddens me to see how so
much has been taken from so many by so
few and no one seems to care. Before long,
Christians will be able to pray only in the
confines of their own homes.
I am proud of being a Christian and I am
very tired of having my religious freedom
challenged.

Theres no truth to news
of IBC, Highmark merger
I
am writing in response to inaccurate
information that appeared briefly on The

photograph of the Independence Blue
Cross building falsely stated that IBC plans
to merge with Highmark Inc. Nothing
could be further from the truth.
I want to set the record straight. Nearly
five years ago, IBC and Highmark pro-
posed merging, but we withdrew our appli-
cation for that transaction in 2009. Since
then, IBC and Highmark have operated as
separate, independent companies, and will
continue to do so.
IBC is flourishing. We have strength-
ened performance in our health insurance
business, streamlined through technology,
and introduced innovative, cost-effective
products and services for our customers.
At the heart of our strategy to continue to
thrive is partnering with other forward-
thinking Blue and non-Blue health care
leaders. For example, we recently collab-
orated with Blue Cross Blue Shield of
Michigan to purchase AmeriHealth Mercy,
one of the nations five largest Medicaid
managed-care companies, and we are eval-
uating other progressive partnerships.
This fall, we proudly introduced the Inde-
pendence Blue Cross Foundation to streng-
then our long-standing commitment to our
community.
In short, as the leading independent
health insurer in southeastern Pennsylva-
nia, we remain strongly committed to our
73-year-old mission of enhancing the
health and wellness of the people and
communities we serve, and we are well
positioned for future growth.

Awareness can prevent
diabetic eye disease
W
ith Thanksgiving right around the
corner, the thought of what to eat
and how much to eat can often create
unwanted anxiety for those people strug-
gling with diabetes.
Traditionally, Thanksgiving consists of
high-fat and high-carbohydrate meals,
which can lead to poor control of blood
sugar levels. Elevated levels of glucose in
the blood, over time, can lead to a number
of damaging complications.
During this holiday of smorgasbord
dining, the Greater Wilkes-Barre Associ-
ation for the Blind is creating awareness of
the leading source of blindness in individu-
als between the ages of 20 and 74 diabet-
ic retinopathy.
Nearly half of all diabetics have some
form of diabetic retinopathy, which occurs
when blood vessels to the retina become
blocked or leak fluid or blood, causing
vision loss. All individuals with diabetes,
type 1 and type 2, are at risk for diabetic
eye diseases and are more susceptible to
them the longer they live with diabetes.
In the early stages of diabetes, you
might not notice any change in vision, but
it can lead to sight-threatening forms of
disease if not detected. Anyone experi-
encing blurry or clouded vision, floaters
or dark spots in vision, waviness when
looking at straight lines (such as flag poles
or street lights), difficulty seeing in dim
light or tunnel vision should immediately
see an eye doctor.
Most vision loss due to diabetes can be
prevented, but it is vital that it is diag-
nosed early.
Dont let your diabetes dampen your
holiday. Here are a few healthy choices you
can make to ensure many more celebra-
tions with your family and friends:
Get an annual eye exam that includes
dilating the pupils. Lower your blood sug-
ar levels, blood pressure and cholesterol
levels. Dont smoke. Maintain a healthy
diet. And exercise regularly.
For more information on how you can
protect your vision, contact the Associ-
ation for the Blind at (570) 693-3555, or
visit www.wilkesbarreblind.com.

N TAPPING FORMER
FBI Director Louis J. Freeh
to head the in-house probe
of the Jerry Sandusky
child-sex-assault scandal, Penn-
sylvania State University offi-
cials haveturnedtoaveteranin-
vestigator with impressive cre-
dentials and a national profile.
Theres little doubt that
Freeh, 61, has the experience
and expertise to peel back the
layers of the Penn State bureau-
cracy where according to a
grand jury indictment a child
predator was sheltered from
scrutiny for years.
Freehs charge to leave no
stone unturned in an internal
investigation that will cover a
nearly35-year periodis a strong
statement that the Penn State
trustee committee headed by
Merck & Co. boss Ken Frazier
intends to expose the scandals
roots.
Can the Freeh investigation
satisfy critics in the Penn State
faculty senate who, on Friday,
rightly questioned the trustees
ability to offer an objective and
fair look at the scandal? That
will be determined, in part, by
whether the inquiry proves to
be truly arms-length. Freeh
must not allow his former busi-
ness relationship with Penn
Statewhileacredit-cardcompa-
ny executive to cloud his ability
to conduct an objective probe.
One good measure of the ef-
fort will be Freehs eventual rec-
ommendations for policy
changes to safeguard students
and others against predators,
and whether theyre strong
enough to reassure the public.
At the same time, its impor-
tant that other reviews go for-
ward as planned. First and fore-
most, authorities need to deter-
mine whether there are other
alleged abuse victims.
Legislators need to toughen
reporting laws on suspected
abuse and enact measures to
give long-ago abuse victims a
day in court.

a homeless person,
and the gift might
serve well to protect
him or her until it gets lost, or

Luzerne County Community
College, by contrast, recently
announced that it plans to pro-
vide the areas homeless pop-
ulation with something much
more long-lasting
and potentially life-
changing: free train-
ing toward high
school equivalency
diplomas, or GEDs.
Bravo to the brave
soul(s) at LCCC who
first floated that idea
at the faculty meet-
ing. Presumably,
most colleges are not
pursuing, or evengiv-
ing much thought to, a demo-
graphic commonly considered
tobedownonits luck, destitute
andlackingamailingaddress at
which to send student loan
bills. But apparently program
coordinator Francis Curry and
others on LCCCs main campus
in Nanticoke saw fit to focus
some of the institutions re-
sources on a pressing public
problem.
The colleges new project,
called Hope for the Home-
less, aims to give certain
homeless and at-risk individu-
als a basic education, upping
the odds they can land jobs and
ultimately afford to rent apart-
ments or other places to live.
LCCC will partner with sev-
eral area agencies to deliver the
training, college officials said
during Fridays announcement.
Judging by the list of participa-
nts, organizers of Hope for the
Homeless did their homework
onthis communitys social safe-
ty net. The lineup
includes Catholic
Social Services,
the Domestic Vio-
lence Service Cen-
ter, Catherine

the Salvation Ar-
mys Kirby Family

Yes, homeless people in
NortheasternPennsylvania still
require, especially during the
winter-heating season, access
to the traditional hot-and-a-cot
services a warm meal and
modest place to spend the
night. Coats and warm gloves
can sure help, too.
But Luzerne County Com-
munity College and its partners
deserve praise and support for
posing a solution that, unlike
many typical and short-lived re-
sponses tohomelessness, wont
become threadbare over time.

STATE COLLEGE Former
PennState student disciplinarian
Vicky Triponey tells The Wall
Street Journal that football play-
ers were treated more favorably
thanother students accusedof vi-
olatingthe community standards
as defined by the student code of
conduct.
Triponey, who resigned her
post as the universitys standards
and conduct of-
ficer in 2007,
spoke to the
newspaper af-
ter it obtained a
2005 email
from her to
then-president
Graham Span-
ier and others in which Triponey
expressedher concerns about the
disciplinary process as it per-
tained to football players.
Coach Joe Paterno is insistent
he knows best how to discipline
his players ... and their status as a
student when they commit viola-
tions of our standards should
NOT be our concern ... and I
think he was saying we should
treat football players different
from other students in this re-
gard, Triponey wrote in a Aug.
12, 2005, email obtained by the
newspaper.
Coach Paterno would rather
we NOT inform the public when
a football player is found respon-
sible for committing a serious vi-
olation of the lawand/or our stu-
dent code, she wrote in the
email, despite any moral or legal
obligation to do so.
Triponeys email was written
the day after a meeting in which
Paterno criticized Triponey for
meddling, the Journal reported
citing two anonymous sources.
In a response to her note, Ath-
letic Director Tim Curley wrote
Paterno felt it should be his call
if someone should practice and
play in athletics.
In a statement Monday to the
Journal Triponey said: There
were numerous meetings and
discussions about specific and
pending student discipline cases
that involved football players,
which included demands to ad-
just the process for players result-
ing in them being treated more
favorably than other students ac-
cusedof violatingthecommunity
standards as defined by the stu-
dent code of conduct.
Triponeys comments come as
Penn State is reeling in the after-
math of criminal charges filed
this month against Jerry Sandus-
ky, the former assistant football
coach accused of molesting eight
boys over a 15-year period.
PaternoandSpanier were oust-
ed from their jobs in the wake of
the scandal. Curley was indicted
for perjury in the case and has
been placed on administrative
leave. He has denied any wrong-
doing.
Paternos lawyer, Wick Sollers,
told the Journal through a
spokesman that the allegations
that have been described are out
of context, misleading and filled
with inaccuracies. ... Penn States
record of producing successful
student athletes under coach Pa-
ternos guidance is unques-
tioned.
Spanier didnt respond to the
Journals requests for comment,
and a Penn State spokesman also
declined to comment to the
newspaper.
A representative for Curley
told the newspaper that he tried
to make sure all student athletes
were treated equally with regard
to the code of conduct.
Report: Ex-official questioned player treatment
Former student disciplinarian
says PSU football players
treated more favorably.
Triponey
was worried there may soon be new
criminal allegations against his cli-
ent.
My concern is, if they bring new
charges based upon new people
coming forward, that bails going to
be set and hes going to wind up in
jail, said Amendola, who has not
returned multiple phone messages
from The Associated Press seeking
comment.
All four common pleas judges in
Centre County, where Penn State is
located, removed themselves from
potentially presiding over the case
and were replaced Tuesday by out-
side jurists, the Pennsylvania court
system announced.
The Administrative Office of
Pennsylvania Courts said in a re-
lease that the judges bowed out to
avoid any appearance of conflict of
interest due to real or perceived
connections to Sandusky, the uni-
versity or the charity for at-risk chil-
dren Sandusky founded.
John M. Cleland, a senior judge
from McKean County, was appoint-
ed to take over the case, though an-
other judge, Kathy A. Morrow, was
named to handle matters until Cle-
land can assume jurisdiction.
Cleland chaired the Interbranch
Commission on Juvenile Justice, es-
tablished in the wake of the kids-
for-cash courthouse scandal in
which Luzerne County judges were
accused of sending children to pri-
vate detention centers for kick-
backs.
Morrow immediately signed an
order to prevent people involved in
the case from disclosing the name of
an individual described by his law-
yers as a victim of and witness to
child sexual abuse.
The Centre County clerks office
was told to seal any portion of the
record that refers to him by name,
and the motion seeking the order
was itself sealed. Messages seeking
comment from his lawyers werent
immediately returned.
Also Tuesday, Sanduskys prelimi-
nary hearing was rescheduled for
Dec. 13 at the Centre County Cour-
thouse in Bellefonte. It will be han-
dled by an out-of-county jurist,
Westmoreland County Senior Dis-
trict Judge Robert E. Scott.
Scott replaced the district judge
who set bail for Sandusky, Leslie
Dutchcot of State College, who had
ties to The Second Mile, Sanduskys
charity.
If Scott has to make new deci-
sions about bail, they would come in
the context of public outrage over
the allegations, which include
charges that Sandusky found vic-
tims among boys being helped by
The Second Mile.
The more charges, the more seri-
ous it becomes, and of course Ive
heard public outcry that his bail is
unsecured and its too low, said
Tunkhannock defense attorney Ger-
ald Grimaud, who isnt involved in
the case.
Until the preliminary hearing,
prosecutors can seek to have bail
modified by the district judge, said
Lehigh County District Attorney
Jim Martin. After that hearing, bail
changes would have to be pursued
by a county court petition, he said.
An attorney generals office
spokesman declined to comment on
the Centre County judges recusal
or about potential new charges
against Sandusky.
The scandal has resulted in the
ouster of Penn State President Gra-
ham Spanier and head football
coach Joe Paterno and has cast a
dark shadow over one of college
footballs most legendary programs.
Athletic Director Tim Curley has
been placed on leave, and Vice Presi-
dent Gary Schultz, who oversaw the
universitys police department, has
stepped down.
Schultz and Curley are charged
with lying to a grand jury and failing
to properly report suspected abuse
to authorities. Like Sandusky, they
have denied the allegations.

to the states child abuse
hotline soared right after
the Penn State child sex
abuse scandal broke and
then started to drop back.
Butexpertsworrythatthe
existing system may not
be up to handling even

In Pennsylvania, there
areusuallyabout 460calls
to a child abuse hotline
per day, or 2,300 per five-
day week, state Depart-
ment Public Welfare spo-
keswoman Carey Miller
said.
Calls jumped to almost
1,000 per day after the
news of abuse allegations
against former PennState
assistant football coach
Jerry Sandusky, she said.
There were 4,832 calls for
the week of Nov. 5-11.
Then the number drop-
pedto2,866thefollowing
week.
Yet the hotline, called
ChildLine, already had
staffing and technology
problems even before the
Penn State scandal, said
Cathleen Palm, executive
director of the Protect
Our ChildrenCommittee.
She worries about
whether those investigat-
ingthecallshavetheprop-

the increase has more to

concern about child
abuse.

OShaunessy said he volun-
teered to be part of the program
and visit schools because of his
personal experience, being bul-
lied for years thanks to his pasty
white skin and fiery red hair.
While he started the program
by giving the students a brief, fist-
pumping speech about how they
can fight bullying by banding to-
gether andbeingwillingtotalkto
adults, he spent most of his
roughly 30 minutes fielding ques-
tions from those who admitted
they had been victims.
Paige Malinoski asked How
bad were you bullied, and Shea-
mus lowered his voice. Pretty
bad Pretty bad.
He paused, then told an unusu-
allyhushedcrowdof tweens Bul-
lying hurts. It hurts.
Despite his WWE persona as a
tough guy, body-slamming foes,
Sheamus stressedtheresponseto
bullying is to talk to a teacher or
a trusted adult and have fellow
students back you up.
Asked if he had fought back in
his youth, he admitted I tried,
but regrettedtheeffort. Physical-
ity isnt the right thing to do, he
said. Nobody comes out on top.
Malinoski beamed after chat-
ting with her favorite pro wres-
tler, saying she was sure his ap-
pearance would help curb bully-
ing, and showing confidence she
can fulfill her dreams. After all, if
Sheamus can go frombullied red-
headed boy to red-headed wres-
tler claiming proudly that Im

ures she can be an artist.
Reiley voiced equal confidence
in his hope of becoming a herpe-

ards and that bullying took a
hit at the school thanks to Shea-
mus.

Thats all I would do. I dont

over, she said.
Give it away
Having just bought tickets for
Powerball, Cash 5 and Mega
Ball, TomConnell said he would
give it away if he won the jack-
pot.
Why?
Because money complicates
your life and its the root of all
evil, said Connell, 59, of Exeter.
I have no use for the money. I
would give it away to the hungry
and the sick.
Margo Harvey, 46, of Shaver-
town, said she would share it
with everybody if she won the
jackpot.
I would help family and
friends and probably organiza-
tions to help children, said Har-
vey, who played The Daily Num-
ber, Big 4 and Cash 5.
Asked if there was nothing
shed buy for herself, Harvey
gave it a moments thought.
Probably a new house, she
said.
Jeff Murphys plans were a bit
more ambitious.
I would probably take the
cash, take care of the family and
thengive $1millionto those peo-
ple trying to lower our taxes or
eliminate them, the 52-year-old
Wyoming resident said.
Those poor buggers up in
Lackawanna County are goingto
go through hell next year. The
whole economys crummy, he
said.
Murphy added two more
items to his wishful plans.
Play partisan politics
For one, hed donate to the
campaign of a conservative Re-
publican, hoping the candidate
would oust President Barack
Obama from office.
And the other?
Take a cruise, Murphy said
with a smile.
While the intentions of the
gamers might be admirable, po-
litical or whimsical, theyll need
more than just a little luck to win
big and see their dreams come
true.
According to the Multi-State
Lottery Association, the odds of
winning the Powerball jackpot
are 1 in 195 million.

Assuming Saturdays winner
takes the one-time payment of
$37.6 million, it would be the 12th
largest Powerball payout on a
ticket sold in Pennsylvania.
If Saturdays winner chooses the
30 annuity payments over 29

would be the eighth largest on a
ticket sold in Pennsylvania.

Theres little doubt which
team is the underdog in the
UNICO All-Star Classic at 7
p.m. today at Wyoming Areas
stadium in West Pittston.
Look at the rosters and look
at the recent results.
Id assume wed be the un-

coach Ron Hummer, who is
coaching the East team. We
havent won in, whats it been?
Six years? We talked to the guys
that its been six years since the
East won and they said that
hopefully that changes this
year.
But its a nice bunch of tal-
ented players and were looking
forward to Wednesday.
The East last posted a victory
in 2005, defeating the West 20-
14 at Wilkes-Barre Memorial
Stadium. Since then its been all
West, including a 42-7 rout last
season. It was the most points
by a winning team since the
games inception in 1953.
The East was hamstrung last
year by the absence of players
fromGAR, which was playing in
the first round of the PIAA 2A
playoffs two days later. Its in
the same situation tonight as
the Grenadiers play Friday in
the state playoffs.
The PIAA prohibits athletes
in all sports from playing in se-
nior all-star games if their sea-
sons arent completed. Not that
the Grenadiers would have
played anyway considering they
face an unbeaten Pen Argyl
team less than 48 hours later.
Obviously, it hurts, Hum-
mer said. But I wish them luck

Halfway through Tuesdays
practice at Coal Street, Wilkes
Barre/Scranton Penguins head
coach John
Hynes blew
his whistle
and brought
things to an
abrupt halt.
For the
next two
minutes, he
directed a
hard stare at his players while the
rink stood silent.
Then, without mincing words,
Hynes pointed out that while the
veterans on the team showed up
to practice and work hard, the
players that didnt will find them-
selves in Wheeling if they dont
pick it up.
Hynes wasnt only referring to
Tuesdays practice, but last week-
end when the Penguins dropped
three straight games during a
swing through New England.
Center Bryan Lerg said the
team needed the wakeup call
from its coach.
You have to be doing what he
wants. You cant just come in and
have one good day and then the
next day just go through the mo-
tions, Lerg said. Youre not go-
ing to get away with that here. It
can be frustrating at times but
you have to be a big boy and work
through it because, at the end of
the day, its about winning.
The Penguins hope to put an
end to their three-game skid
when they host the Syracuse
Crunch tonight at Mohegan Sun
Arena. On Tuesday, Hynes ran
the team through a lengthy prac-
tice full of competition drills,
puck battles, different line com-
binations and a bit of a hard talk.
It was more about getting his
players ready to play mentally, he
said.
We have to be better and be
more detailed. Its not different
than any other day, Hynes said.
We just have to get better per-
formances from a lot of the
guys.
Hynes indicatedthere couldbe
several lineup changes for to-

returned from Pittsburgh on
Tuesday to add another defense-
man to the mix, for starters.
We dont like the results weve
had, Hynes said. We have a lot

NEW YORK Ryan Braun
sat alone on a balcony in his Ma-
libu home that overlooks the Pa-
cific Ocean, uneasy about his
chances of winning the NL
Most Valuable Player award.
With the season Los An-
geles Matt Kemp had, he
wasnt sure the call would
come at all.
The phone rang all
right, and Braun has
been smiling ever
since.
Braun was voted the
NL MVP after helping the Mil-
waukee Brewers win their first
division title in nearly 30 years.
Imnot going to pretend like I
wasnt anxious or nervous be-
cause I was, Braun said. Its
honestly difficult to put into
words how much this means to
me.
The left fielder received 20 of
32 first-place votes and 388
points in voting announced
Tuesday by the Baseball Writers
Association of America.
A nerve-racking morning that
began with a solitary drive turn-
ed to elation in the California
sun.
The 28-year-old Braun shared
the news with his brother and
girlfriend, who were at the
house. He called his parents,
then rang good friend Aaron
Rodgers, the Green Bay Packers
quarterback, andexchangedtext
messages with Kemp, the run-
ner-up.
This really is a dream, Braun
said. This is beyond my wildest
dreams to be in this position at
this point in my career.
Kemp earned 10 first-place
Milwaukee Brew-
ers Ryan Braun
celebrates after hitting
a game-winning home
run during the 11th inning
against the Colorado
Rockies on Sept. 13 in
Milwaukee. Braun won
the National League
MVP Award in voting
announced Tuesday.

After so many years of bad De-
troit Lions teams and their
games, no matter the week,
meaning so little all of a sud-
den that traditional Turkey Day
contest in the Motor City is not a
turkey at all.
Detroit, which is 7-3, hosts the
reigning Super Bowl champion
Green Bay
Packers, who
are 10-0, to
open a tre-
mendously
compelling
three-game
NFL feast
Thursday.
The al-

ing Dallas
Cowboys
(6-4) host the
Miami Dol-
phins (3-7)
next in a matchup between two
teams on three-game winning
streaks, and the San Francisco
49ers (9-1) are at the Baltimore
Ravens (7-3) at night in the Har-
baugh Bowl, the first time two
brothers will face each other as
head coaches in the league.
A case can be made that these
are the three most intriguing
NFL games of the week. It cer-
tainly qualifies as the most entic-
ing Thanksgiving Day lineup in
decades.
Thats good. Good for the
NFL, good for the fans, good for
the people, Minnesota Vikings
linebacker Erin Henderson said.
Something entertaining to
watch while we all stuff our faces
with that good food.

DALLAS --- Not many first-year
runners can say that theyve accom-
plished as much in one season as
Dominic DeLuca has.
Dominic DeLuca, a sophomore at
Dallas High School, added one more
accomplishment, as he has been
named The Times Leader MVP for
boys cross country this season.
A first-year runner, DeLuca already
has accomplished much in such a
short career.
As a first-year runner I felt I did
really well. DeLuca said. My team-
mates pushed me and I was happy
with my end results.
DeLucas end results involved par-
ticipating in the PIAA State Meet in
Hershey earlier this month, placing in
the mid-40s overall. His 48th place
finish, in 16:51, was the third sub-17-
minute time in three postseason
meets.
While his states place finish may
not be what one would expect, to get
there DeLuca finished first overall in
the Wyoming Valley Conference
Coaches Meet in a time of 16:37. He
also placed third overall in the District
2 Class 3A Meet in 16:53.
Both the District 2 and Coaches
meets gave DeLuca a bit of an ad-
vantage, for he sees his strength as a
runner being his abilities as a hill
runner.
Districts was one of my best races
of the year. DeLuca said. That
course fit me well because there were
a lot of hills.
The Coaches Meet was an excep-
tional effort as well. DeLuca fell on the
first hill of the race in Meshoppen, but
was able to regain his feet and his
pace to win the race by six seconds.
The sophomore was also honored
by coaches from the Wyoming Valley
Conference during the postseason, as
he was named to the Division II boys
first team.
After a season with so much ac-
complished, DeLuca knows that there
is always room for improvement for
next season.
I want to improve my 800-meters
for each race. he said. I would also
like to work on getting my stamina
back up.
DeLuca is not a one-sport student,
for he also participates in golf, and
with the track and field squad in the
spring. He also participates in soccer
and golf as hobbies outside of the
competitive environment of varsity
sports.
With all of these activities going on,
how does a high school sophomore
manage his time? DeLuca knows
exactly how to.
I play soccer outside of school,
DeLuca said. I participate in cross
country and golf in school, and I get
my homework done in between prac-
tices. Golf, I like to stick to it in the
summer also. Its more of a recre-
ational thing.
When hes not doing schoolwork or
sports, DeLuca likes to be a normal
high school teenager and hang out
with his friends. He also likes to play
his Xbox, or sometimes grab a book to
read.
Multi-sport athletes run in the De-
Luca family, for Dominics younger
brothers also participate in various
sports as well.
His brother Anthony, an eighth
grader, plays soccer, basketball, base-
ball, and he also wrestles. Nico, a
seventh grade, also like to play soccer,
basketball and baseball.
Rookie was top local runner at D2, WVC meets
DeLuca dominates
Dominic DeLuca finishes first in the boys race at the Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence Coaches Meet on Oct. 18 in Meshoppen.

SECOND TEAM
SOUTH BEND, Ind. Notre
Dame coach Brian Kelly knows
bottling up Stanfords offense is
unlikely.
He just wants his defense to
keep points off the board so the
22nd-ranked Fighting Irish dont
have to play from behind.
That will be the challenge Sat-
urday when Notre Dame visits
No. 4 Stanford, taking on a Cardi-
nal attack led by quarterback An-
drew Luck that is averaging 45
points per game.
We know theyre going to get
their yardage, theyre going to
run the football, theyre an out-
standing football team, theyre
well coached, Kelly said. But
keep the points down and give us
an opportunity offensively to run
our offense and not get into a
state where we have to play catch
up. Anybody thats got to play a
lot of catch up against them is in
for a tough day.
Most teams have been playing
from behind against Stanford
(10-1), which has trailed in only
three games all season. Kelly said
the Irish (8-3) need to limit Stan-
ford on early downs to get Luck
into passing situations.
Its a matter of us doing a real-
ly good job in play-action and
knowing when hes going to
throwit. Putting himin those po-
sitions when he has to throw the
football is the most important
thing, Kelly said. First and sec-
onddownare very crucial for us.
Getting the ball back from the
Stanford offense as soon as possi-
ble will help the Irish offense dic-
tate the flowof the game. Howev-
er, the Cardinal offense has only
had 10 three-and-outs all season.
Inthepast fewweeks, Kellyhas
occasionally employed a defen-
sive look that has no defensive li-
nemen in a three-point stance.
This is done in hopes of causing
confusion among the offensive
line and running backs on which
players theyre responsible for in
pass protection, Kelly said.
Kelly doesnt think his defense
can confuse Luck, praising the
quarterbacks poise under pres-
sure.
A strong running attack ave-
raging 209 yards per game sup-
ports Luck and prevents him
from facing difficult down-and-
distance situations. When Luck
does see pressure, Kelly said he
still tends to make the right deci-
sions.
He has the ability to make the
throws whenhes under duress as
well, Kelly said. To have that
youve got to have the skill, but
you also have to have the utmost
confidence in your ability, and he
has all of those intrinsic things
necessary to be a great quarter-
back.
Defensive coordinator Bob
DiacosaidStanfordhas a number
of offensive units that are as good
or better than any the Irish have
faced, mentioning the line, tight
ends and running backs. And
then theres their Heisman candi-
date quarterback.
Hes the driver out there and
gets them in the right plays and
makes the right reads, Diaco
said. Hes goingtofindyour little
void area and the receivers and
him are in coordination nicely. ...
Hes got a strong, accurate arm
that canmake all the throws. Hes
a special player.
Senior safety and captain Har-
rison Smith said Stanfords of-
fense is similar to an option at-
tack in that the Cardinal keep
running their plays, hoping you
make a mistake.
Our unit on defense, everybo-
dy fills their role and does their
job, Smith said. I think when
you turn on the tape and watch
Stanford youll see a lot of teams
doing that for most of the game,
but then there will be however
many plays where one guys out
of his fit or one guys not reading
his key and theyll gash you.
Last year, Stanford defeated
the Irish 37-14 in South Bend,
shoving the Irish around most of
the game. Kelly believes his team
has developed since then and is
better able to handle a team like
Stanford. When the Cardinal
bring an extra tight end or offen-
sive lineman into the game, the
Irish will rely on their base per-
sonnel to match up.

meaning after dropping three in a row on the road. Its a statement game. Sunday
(a 3-1 loss at Worcester) was a test for our team and we didnt ante up. It was
inexcusable and its not our style. We need to be better, he said.
- D Robert Bortuzzo didnt practice Tuesday after missing Sundays game in
Worcester. Hynes said he will be back in the lineup tonight. Alexandre Picard will
also be ready to play after arriving back from Pittsburgh on Tuesday.
- D Boris Valabik practiced in full but wont be ready to play this week, Hynes said.

total in school history.
In addition, Quinones wrap-
ped up her career with 157

early, falling behind by 16, and

half. The Wolverines never
made it all the way back, un-
able to slow down the sure-
shooting Blue Devils to slip
into the third-place game.

spearheaded a late rally as
South Carolina escaped the

smaller conference foe. Eric

shoot just 28 percent. The

them, and they ended up shoot-
ing only 21 percent from the

special tripleheader?
Consider:
The six teams are 42-18,
which translates to a .700 win-
ning percentage. The last time
the holidays NFL participants
boasted that strong a combined
win-loss record was 1975 (also
.700).
Its the first Thanksgiving
since 1998 when there were
only two games that each club
in action won its previous game.
The Packers are the first un-
beaten teamto play on the fourth
Thursday in November since the
1962 Packers also were 10-0, be-
fore losing to Detroit. Including
the playoffs, Green Bay has won
its last 16 games in a row.
San Francisco coach Jim
Harbaugh will match wits with
his older brother, Baltimore
coach John Harbaugh, in a game
for family bragging rights and
with significant playoff-seeding
implications.
Even the game that was
shaping up as a dud, Miami at
Dallas, now becomes worth
watching, because the Dolphins
are the only team in NFL history
togofrom0-7to3-7andpresent a
real challenge to the recently re-
surgent Cowboys and quarter-
back Tony Romo (who, by the
way, is 18-2 with 49 touchdown
passes and 12 interceptions for
his career in November).
Give the Lions credit for help-
ing boost the anticipation for this
years Thanksgiving games, be-
cause they sure deserve a lot of
the blame for the holidays NFL
blandness of late.
Heck, there even was talk
about moving that game out of
Detroit I thought it was sacri-
legious talk because Detroit
hadnt been very competitive on
those days on national TV. So the
thinking was, Hey, lets spread it
around to other cities, said NFL
Network analyst Steve Mariucci,
who coached the Lions from
2003-05.
Only two other times in the
past 50 years yes, 50 years!
did the Lions arrive at Thanks-
giving at 7-3, in 1993 and 1969.
You have to go all the way back to
1962tofindthemwitha better re-
cord (8-2) at this point in the sea-
son.

CANTON, Ohio Former
coach Bill Parcells, running
backs Jerome Bettis and
Curtis Martin and NFL Com-
missioner Paul Tagliabue are
among 26 modern-era semi-
finalists for the Pro Football
Hall of Fame.
The list was announced
Tuesday by the Hall of Fame
following a vote by its selec-
tion committee, which chose
the group from a list of 105
preliminary nominees.
Kansas City Chiefs guard
Will Shields is the only first-
year eligible player to make
the list. Parcells also is con-
sidered a first-year candidate
under new requirements
that were put in place in
2008, after he had been a
nominee in 2001, 2002 and
2003.
The new rule makes it
mandatory for coaches, like
players, to be retired for five
consecutive seasons. Before
that, coaches were eligible
immediately upon retire-
ment. Parcells won two Su-
per Bowls with the New
York Giants in 1987 and
1991, then coached the Patri-
ots and Jets before retiring
in 1999. He returned to
coach the Cowboys in 2003.
Among other semifinalists
for the Class of 2012 are
wide receivers Tim Brown,
Cris Carter and Andre Reed,
along with former San Fran-
cisco 49ers owner Edward
DeBartolo Jr.
Bettis ranks fifth on the
NFL rushing list with 13,662
yards in 13 seasons, three for
the Rams and a decade with
the Steelers, with whom he
won the 2006 Super Bowl in
his final game. Martin ranks
fourth with 14,101 yards with
the Patriots and Jets from
1995-2005.
In addition to Parcells, the
other semifinalist coach is
Don Coryell, who led the St.
Louis Cardinals and San Die-
go Chargers.
Defensive semifinalists in-
clude DBs Steve Atwater,
Donnie Shell and Aeneas
Williams, DEs/LBs Chris
Doleman, Kevin Greene and
Charles Haley, LBs Clay
Matthews and Karl Mecklen-
burg and DT Cortez Kenne-
dy.
The others are running
backs Roger Craig and Ter-
rell Davis, center Dermontti
Dawson, tackle Willie Roaf,
special teams/WR Steve
Tasker and contributor Ge-
orge Young, who worked for
the Baltimore Colts, Dol-
phins, Giants and in the NFL
office.
Four previously eligible
candidates made it to the
semifinals for the first time:
Atwater, Matthews, Meck-
lenburg and contributor Ron
Wolf, who worked for the
Raiders, Buccaneers, Jets
and Packers.
The group of semifinalists
will be reduced by a mail
ballot to 15 modern-era final-
ists and announced in early
January. The final list of can-
didates also will include two
senior nominees: former
Steelers defensive back Jack
Butler and former Lions
guard Dick Stanfel.
Between four and seven
enshrinees will be an-
nounced the day before the
Super Bowl on Feb. 5, and
inducted in August.
Parcells, Bettis
are among 26
Hall semifinalists
SANTACLARA, Calif. Jack
Harbaugh has watched his sons
go at it for nearly five decades.
From pounding football
games on their bedroomfloor to
timed races up the stairs from
the basement and many, many
bumps and bruises in between.
Thats why he sees no need to
be there inpersonfor Thursdays
matchup an NFL first be-
tween brothers John and Jim
Harbaughwhenthecoaches face
off from opposite sidelines with
their division-leading teams.
Jack and Jackie Harbaugh
plan to swing by the stadiumfor
aquickvisit andphotowiththeir
sons, then go to Johns house to
watch the game on TV in pri-
vate.
All theywant todois allowthe
stage to be John and Jims, Jack
said.
The love of competition was
bred into the brothers. Sons of a
football coach, living room
couches were rearrangedsothey
could dive over the coffee table
and use cushions for tackling
practice. Coat hangers werebent
to become basketball hoops and
yarn transformed into home-
made nets.
There were
hand-written
scorecards and
scoreboards.
The brothers
devised their
own games
and, creatively,
became an-
nouncers to in-
troduce each
other before
they started.
Starting at
forward for Mi-
chigan, stand-
ing 4-feet-5,
wearing No. 23, Jim Harbaugh!
Jack said, recalling one of those
announcements.
Come Thursday night at sold-
out M&T Bank Stadium, theres
no make believe about it.
Jims resurgent 49ers are 9-1
and could clinch the NFC West
with a win coupled with a loss
for the Seahawks. Johns Ravens
are 7-3 and leading the AFC
North.
We knowits goingtobe emo-
tional, were just not sure what
emotions were going to experi-
ence, Jack said. Its such un-
charted waters. Weve experi-
enced it in this business being
married for 50 years and coach-
ing 43 years myself. And football
and basketball and all the other
things weve had in our family.
This is such uncharted waters to
see two in our family competing
at this level on this stage. Weve
just never experienced anything
like it. Its not one of those things
you go into and you have any-
thing that you can possibly mea-
sure it with or against.
This week, Jacks longtime
catch phrase of Whos got it bet-
ter than us? Nobody! seems as
fitting as ever for this family.
The sloganhas beena huge hit
out West, where 49ers players
have made their own T-shirts
featuring those words.
Im sorry that he got to it
first, said the 49-year-old John
Harbaugh. I should have
thought of that before him. We
shouldhavemadesomeT-shirts,
too. I think its really cool.
Aside from the game, theres
another special moment the
family will celebrate: Jack and
Jackies 50th wedding anniver-
sary on Friday. Everything has
come together in one special,
whirlwind week for this sports-
crazed family.

against Sandusky in 1998 and
2002.
But withthe universitys image
crumbling, it figures to be tough
for anyone with previous ties to
the program to be picked to lead
the team for 2012 and beyond.
Though he likely faces long
odds to earn that position, Bra-
dley wont be backing down.
Imnot concerned about what
other people think, saidBradley,
who was named interim coach
when Joe Paterno was fired Nov.
9. Im worried about what our
administration thinks and what
the people that are going to make
that decision think.
Though Penn State is forming
a searchcommittee todiscuss po-
tential candidates for the perma-
nent job, the final decisionwill be
made between university presi-
dent Rod Erickson and acting
athletic director Dave Joyner.
Joyner said Saturday he would
have no objection to hiring some-
one who is currently on staff or
had been in the past.
Whoever is the best person is
going to get the job, Joyner said.
People that know me know Im
going to do the right thing, no
matter what it is. Its more
about whats inside the person
than whats going on outside.
One possible candidate with
Penn State ties, Miami coach Al
Golden, saidTuesdayontheACC
coaches teleconference that he
would not be leaving the Hurri-
canes.
The (Penn State) question
has been posed the last couple of
weeks, and as Ive said over and
over again, Im happy here, said
Golden, a former tight end, cap-
tain and assistant coach for the
Lions. Im excited about what
were doing with our program.
Im excited about the recruiting
class that were putting together,
and clearly excited about what
our team has done.
I believe Im going to be the
head coach of Miami in 2012.
Thats correct.
Penn State closes out the regu-
lar seasonSaturdayat Wisconsin.
The winner will earn the Leaders
Division title and advance to the
inaugural Big Ten championship
game against Michigan State on
Dec. 3 in Indianapolis.
Regardless of how things work
out the rest of the way for the Li-
ons, Bradley said he wants to
make the most out his time at the
helm.
I only worry about the things I
can control, Bradley said. And
right nowImworriedabout mak-
ing sure I do the best job for these
players.
So if I dont end up getting the
job, I can look back and say I gave
everything I had to help those
guys win a championship. And
someday down the road, no mat-
ter how many years down the
road, theyll say, Hey Coach
worked for us until the end.
LIONS
in the playoffs.
Nonetheless, the East is cham-
pioning on with a group that has
less skill stars but will be very
good in the trenches.
Hummer has three of his line-
men at his disposal Anthony
Dennis, Tyler Edwards and 6-
foot-7, 300-pound Martin Steve.
Coughlins John Karazia (6-3,
305) and Crestwoods Tony Mor-
gante (6-4, 295) are considered
two of the best in the Wyoming
Valley Conference.
The East will miss not having
GARs multi-threat quarterback
Darrell Crawford, but its two sig-
nal-callers are very good ones.
Crestwoods Nick Aigeldinger
started four years and led the
WVC in yards per attempt and
touchdown percentage. Hazle-
ton Areas Chad Hoffman is a
dual threat as a runner and
thrower.
Coughlins Joe Parsnik, who
led WVC Division 3A in rushing,
is the top back available. Nanti-
cokes Brian Maslowski also
topped 1,000 yards this season.
There is also a strong contingent
of players from Crestwood at ev-
ery skill spot.
Hummer also spoke highly of a
couple players Holy Redeem-
ers David Gawlas and Hazleton
Areas Yousef Guzman. Gawlas
played just about every skill posi-
tion for a winless Redeemer
team. Guzman has impressed
the coach as a linebacker.
Theyre a fun bunch of play-
ers, I can tell you that. And tal-
ented, Hummer said. I was
talking to a couple other guys
that you tell them one time what
you want and they remember it
from then on. Its a pretty unique
situation.
Theoretically, we all run the
same things. We just call it differ-
ent. So its a matter the way we
call it and getting them used to
it. We go over pass plays and you
tell the quarterbacks one read
and you dont have to go over it
again. They know it.
This is the original roster selected by the coaches
and does not include additions or deletions.

UNICO
this weekend.
I didnt play my normal
self, Still said. I felt I was pro-
ductive but not as far as stats-
wise. I was dealing with the flu,
but I decided to play through
that because I knew my pres-
ence on the team would help.
That it did. With Still and
Hill forcing double teams
throughout the game, it opened
up things up for middle line-
backer Glenn Carson, who fin-
ished with a career-high 11 tack-
les and forced a second-half
fumble that the Nittany Lions
recovered.
Still, a senior captain for the
Lions, remains tied for first in
the Big Ten in solo tackles for
loss (15.0) and is tied for third
overall in the conference (16.5).
He also has 53 tackles, four
sacks, one forced fumble and
one fumble recovery on the sea-
son.
Hes been playing great, in-
terim coach Tom Bradley said.
But Im going to remember
him and thank him for his great
leadership off the field with the
players, the way hes handled
the team, the way hes been tak-
ing those guys under his wing
and making sure that everybo-
dy does the right thing.
And what happens is nobody
gets to see that side of it. They
just see him on the field. He
spends a lot of time in that lock-
er room off the field communi-
cating, making sure were on
the right page.
In the 16-year existence of
the Bednarik Award, Penn State
players have won four times
LaVar Arrington (1999), Paul
Posluszny (2005, 2006) and
Dan Connor (2007).
Mike Reid (1969) is the only
Penn State player to win the
Outland. The school has never
had a Nagurski winner.
Its a great accomplishment
to me, Still said of being a fi-
nalist for the three awards. It
means everything. Ever since
Ive been here Ive seen other
guys whove won these types of
awards. I stayed focused on it,
and it paid off.
Wisconsin, famed for produc-
ing plenty of tough offensive li-
nemen, could be shorthanded
against Still on Saturday. Start-
ing center Peter Konz suffered
a dislocated ankle two weeks
ago and likely wont be avail-
able.
The Badgers started Ryan
Groy at center last week
against Illinois but struggled
and switched over to left guard.
Groy or Travis Frederick would
start against Penn State if Konz
remains out.
Still does jump out on film,
Badgers coach Bret Bielema
said. They use him in a variety
of different fashions. Hes a big
guy that can move extremely
well. Hes got a very quick first
step. I always admire that in de-
fensive linemen, how fast they
can penetrate the line of scrim-
mage.
Infirmary report
While Still said he is 100 per-
cent for the Wisconsin game,
Silas Redd still isnt back to
that point yet.
The tailback is still recover-
ing from a sprained SC joint
suffered against Nebraska.
Though he played vs. Ohio
State, he had just eight carries
and was on the field for just 14
plays.
As was the case last week,
Redd will be held out of contact
drills in practice to keep him in
better shape for Saturdays
game.
We plan on not hitting him
again this week, Bradley said.
We will not hit Silas again this
week. Hopefully we can get him
healed up a little bit.
HONORS
votes and 332 points after com-
ing close to winning the first Tri-
ple Crown since Carl Yastrzem-
ski in 1967. Brauns teammate
Prince Fielder finished third
with 229 points, and Arizonas
Justin Upton finished fourth
with 214 points. Fielder and Up-
ton each received one first-place
vote.
St. Louis Albert Pujols fin-
ished fifth. It was the 11th
straight year the three-time
MVP was in the top 10 in ballot-
ing.
NL Cy Young Award winner
Los Angeles Clayton Kershaw
was12th in the voting a day after
Detroits Justin Verlander added
the AL MVP to his Cy Young.
I thinkhe was the single most
dominant player in baseball this
year, Braun said of Verlander.
As a position player Im biased
to the fact that I think position
players shouldbeat theforefront
of the award, but if you honestly
look at what he accomplished,
howmuchhemeant tothat team
and how dominant he truly was
you cannot make any argument
against him winning that
award.
In his fifth year in the big
leagues, Braun led the NLwith a
.597 slugging percentage and
had a chance to overtake Jose
Reyes for the batting title on the
last day of the season but fin-
ished second with a .332 aver-
age. The four-time All-Star had
33 homers, 111 RBIs, 109 runs
scored and stole 33 bases as Mil-
waukee won a franchise-best 96
games. His 77 extra-base hits
was tops in the league.
Kemp led the NL with 39
homers, 126 RBIs and was third
in average (.324), but played for
the NL Wests third-place Dodg-
ers. He also won a Gold Glove.
Matts one of the best players
in the game. No question about
it. The season he had will go
down as one of the greatest in
Dodgers history, said Braun,
who grew up in California root-
ing for the Dodgers. If he had
wontheMVPI certainlycouldnt
have argued with him winning.
He had a phenomenal year.
Although Braun and Kemp
had similar statistics, Kemp was
hindered by the Dodgers 82-79
third-placefinishintheNLWest.
TheBrewers wontheNLCentral
title, their first division crown
since winning the AL East in
1982.
Without a doubt I think its a
drastically different experience
playing meaningful games down
the stretch, said Braun, the
2007 NL Rookie of the Year.
Braun, in fact, was convinced
the Brewers first-place finish is
what put him over the top with
voters.
If you honestly assess both of
our seasons individually I think
his numbers are probably better
than mine, and I just feel fortu-
nate to have been on the better
team, Braun said. Its an indi-
vidual award, but its a result of
being part of a special team, a
special organization.

NEW YORK Baseball Com-
missioner Bud Selig and union
head Michael Weiner smiled and
exchanged handshakes while
others in the room dug into
knishes and pigs in a blanket.
Not exactly the kind of scene
that played out in sports labor
talks this year.
Baseball ensured itself of 21
consecutive years of peace at a
time the NBA season might be
canceledbecauseof alockout and
the NFL still is recovering from
its CBA negotiations.
Weve learned, Selig said
Tuesday after players andowners
signed an agreement for a five-
year contract running until De-
cember 2016. Nobody back in
the 70s, 80s and the early 90s,
1994, would ever believe that we
would have 21 years of labor
peace.
The agreement makes MLB
the first pro major league in
North America to conduct blood
tests for human growth hor-
mone, allowing it during spring
training and future offseasons
but for nowonly studying wheth-
er it will be implemented during
the regular season.
MLB and the players union
should be applauded for taking
the strong step to implement the
HGHtest at the major league lev-
el to protect clean athletes, said
Travis Tygart, chief executive of-
ficer of the U.S. Anti-Doping
Agency. This is great progress in
MLBs effort to protect the integ-
rity of baseball at every level.
The deal, which must be rati-
fied by both sides and drafted in-
to a formal contract, expands the
playoffs fromeight to10 teams by
2013, lessens draft-pick compen-
sation for free agents, expands
salary arbitrationby a fewplayers
and for the first time allows
teams to trade some draft selec-
tions.
It also adds unprecedented re-
straints on signing bonuses for
amateur players coming to the
major leagues from high school,
college and overseas, perhaps
hurting MLBas it competes with
the NFL and NBA for multisport
talent.
If Ive got a great athlete, why
am I going to go to baseball? Im
going to focus on the other
sports, said agent Scott Boras,
who has negotiated baseballs
highest signing bonuses.
Following eight work stoppag-
es from1972-95, baseball reached
its third consecutive agreement
without an interruption of play.
The agreement was signed three
weeks before the current deal
was to expire Dec. 11, the second
straight time the sides reached a
deal early.
Baseball seems to have learned
the lessons of the 1994-95 strike,
which wiped out the World Se-
ries for the first time in nine dec-
ades.
I think our history is more im-
portant than whats happening in
other sports, said Michael Wein-
er, who took over from Donald
Fehr as union head last year. It
took a while for the owners to ap-
preciate that the unionis not only
here to stay, but that the union
and its members can contribute
positively to a discussion about
the game about its economics,
about the nature of the competi-
tion, about how its marketed in
every way.
Owners hope the changes will
lessen the difference in spending
by high- and low-revenue teams,
much as the payroll luxury tax
that began after the 2002 season.
We feel that competitive bal-
ance is crucial to the product that
we put on the field, said Rob
Manfred, MLBs executive vice
president for labor relations. Ev-
ery time I took a proposal back to
the commissioner, his bellwether
on whether that proposal was
good, bad or indifferent is what it
did for competitive balance.

Five more years of
labor peace for MLB
By RONALD BLUM
AP Sports Writer
ARLINGTON, Texas Back-
to-back AL championships got
the Texas Rangers another prize
in veteran Joe Nathan.
The Rangers new closer was
formally introducedby the team
on Tuesday, his 37th birthday,
with a $14.5 million, two-year
deal that includes anoptionfor a
third season.
Nathan said knowing what
kind of team the Rangers have
and their recent success were
significant factors in his deci-
sion. A meeting with team offi-
cials, including team president
and Hall of Fame pitcher Nolan
Ryan, also helped.
With the acquisition of the
four-time All-Star closer who
spent the last eight years inMin-
nesota, the Rangers will move
hard-throwingright-hander Nef-
tali Feliz to the rotation. Feliz
was primarilya starter inthe mi-
nor leagues.
Not always do we get to an-
nounce one move that impacts
the bullpen, the rotation and al-
so the clubhouse, and strength-
ens all three, general manager
Jon Daniels said. What we talk-
ed about if we were going to
move Neftali
to the rota-
tion, we want-
ed a big-time
guy at the
back end, and
we feel really
good that
weve accom-
plished that.
Moving Feliz to the rotation
would help offset the loss of free
agent C.J. Wilson if the left-
handed starter signs elsewhere.
Nathan has worn No. 36
throughout his 11seasons in the
major leagues, the same num-
ber Wilson has worn with the
Rangers. The Rangers present-
ed Nathan with a No. 63 jersey
Tuesday.
Nathan will get $7 million for
each of the next two seasons.
There is a $9 million option for
2014.
Nathan missed the 2010 sea-
son following Tommy John sur-
gery on his pitching elbow and
struggled to find his form with
Minnesota this year. He went 2-1
with a 4.84 ERA and 14 saves in
48 appearances.
In 581 major league games,
Nathanhas a 48-23recordwitha
2.87 ERA and 261 saves.

All Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence football teams will remain
at the same classifications for the
2012 and 2013 seasons.
The PIAA sent letters to all
schools this week indicating
what classifications their teams
inall sports will befor the2012-13
and 2013-14 school years. The
closest call in football was for
Northwest, which remained in
Class A by landing right on the
185 male enrollment cutoff point
between Class A and 2A.
There was speculation that
Lake-Lehman and Wyoming Ar-
ea might move from 2A to 3A in
football with the addition of male
students they send to West Side
Tech. Once Tech dropped all its
sports programs, those students
get figured into the enrollment
numbers of their sending
schools, where they can play
sports if desired. However, nei-
ther was affected.
The WVC classifications for
the next two football seasons will
be:
Class A: Northwest.
Class 2A: GAR, Hanover Area,
Holy Redeemer, Lake-Lehman,
Meyers, Nanticoke andWyoming
Area.
Class 3A: Berwick, Coughlin,
Crestwood, Dallas, Pittston Area
and Tunkhannock.
Class 4A: Hazleton Area, Wil-
liamsport and Wyoming Valley
West.
The only District 2 team
changing classification was Wal-
lenpaupack from the Lackawan-
na Conference. The Buckhorns
will play at 3A after being 4A the
past two seasons.
Schools have until Dec. 16 to
inform the PIAA if any of their
sports teams desire to play at a
higher classification. Teams can
voluntarily move up in classifica-
tion, but cant move down.
About a dozen schools played
higher than their PIAAclassifica-
tion during the 2010 and 2011
football seasons. However, they
were all involved in cooperative
agreements with another high
school where they combined to
form a team.
Susquehanna in the Lackawan-
na Conference has a co-operative
agreement with Blue Ridge in
football. Montrose, also from the
Lackawanna Conference, will do
the same with Elk Lake in time
for next season.
H I G H S C H O O L F O O T B A L L
No changes on horizon in WVC
All members will remain in
their current classifications
for the next two seasons.

LONDON Roger Federer
raced to one of his easiest wins
over rival Rafael Nadal on Tues-
day, routing the Spaniard 6-3, 6-0
to earn a semifinal berth at the
ATP World Tour Finals.
From 3-2 in the first set, Feder-
er ran away with it and not even
Nadals trademark defensive abil-
ities could handle the pace and
accuracy of the 16-time Grand
Slam champions forehand.
The 26th match between the
former No. 1s was over in exactly
1 hour. Federer finished with 28
winners to Nadals four.
Ive definitely seen Rafa play
better, but Ive also definitely
played worse, Federer said in an
interview on court.
With one match to play in
Group B, Federer is assured of a
place in the semifinals as he tar-
gets a record sixth title at the sea-
son-ending event.
Jo-Wilfried Tsonga earlier kept
alive his hopes of reaching the
last four by beating Mardy Fishof
the United States 7-6 (4), 6-1. Fe-
derers winmeans Fishcannot ad-
vance.
The winner of the match be-
tween Tsonga and Nadal will
claim the other semifinal place
from Group B.
The 30-year-old Federer ex-
tended his winning streak to 14
matches following titles in Basel
and Paris in the run-up to the
ATP Finals. He underlined his
status as thetopplayer inLondon
with a dominating performance
against Nadal, who lost 10 of the
last 11 games.
Federer trails 17-9 in the head-
to-head series, but has won all
four of their matches indoors.
Clay goes his way, Federer
said. At least I have one surface
that goes my way.

Netflix shares pounded
The latest sell-off came after Netflix
Inc. raised $400 million by taking on
more debt and selling more stock. That
move intensified concerns about the
public relations and competitive pres-
sures facing the video subscription
service.
Netflix shares dropped by $4.02, or
5.4 percent, to $70.45. It sagged as low
as $69 earlier in the session. Thats the
lowest its been since March 2010.
Netflix shares have been in free fall
since the company angered subscribers
by raising its U.S. prices by as much as
60 percent. Shares hit a peak of nearly
$305 a share around the same time that
the higher prices were announced in
July.
$950M Merck settlement
The Department of Justice says
Merck will pay $950 million to resolve
investigations into its marketing of the
painkiller Vioxx.
The agency says Merck will pay
$321.6 million in criminal fines and
$628.4 million as a civil settlement
agreement. It will also plead guilty to a
misdemeanor charge that it marketed
Vioxx as a treatment for rheumatoid
arthritis before getting Food and Drug
Administration approval.
Merck stopped selling Vioxx in 2004
after evidence showed the drug dou-
bled the risk of heart attack and stroke.
In 2007 the company paid $4.85 billion
to settle around 50,000 Vioxx-related
lawsuits.
GDP growth lowered
The U.S. economy grew at a slower
pace than originally estimated in the
third quarter, mainly because compa-
nies reduced inventories and did not
invest as much.
The Commerce Department cut its
calculation of gross domestic product
to 2.0 percent growth in the July-to-
September period from an initial read-
ing of 2.5 percent.
Jobless rates fall in states
Unemployment rates fell in three-
quarters of U.S. states last month.
The Labor Department says unem-
ployment rates fell in 36 states in Octo-
ber and rose in only five. Rates were
unchanged in nine states. Thats the
best showing since April, when rates
fell in 39 states.
Pennsylvanias jobless rate fell to 8.1
percent in October. The national rate
was 9 percent.

WASHINGTON Bank earn-
ings rose over the summer to
their highest level in more than
four years, while the number of
troubled banks fell for the second
straight quarter, federal regula-
tors reported Tuesday.
The Federal Deposit Insurance
Corp. said the banking industry
earned $35.3 billion in the July-
September quarter. Thats up
from$23.8 billion in the same pe-
riod last year. More than 60 per-
cent of banks reported improved
earnings.
The better earnings and fewer
troubled banks suggest that the
industry is steadily improving
fromthe depths of the 2008finan-
cial crisis.
Bankbalance sheets are stron-
ger in a number of ways, and the
industry is generally profitable,
but the recovery is by no means
complete, said Martin Gruen-
berg, FDICs acting chairman.
The FDIC also said there were
844 banks on its confidential
problem list in the quarter, or
roughly11.5percent of all federal-
ly insured banks. That was down
from 865 the April-June period,
which was first quarter in five
years to show a decline.
Banks with assets exceeding
$10 billion drove the bulk of the
earnings growth. They made up
1.4 percent of all banks but ac-
counted for about $29.8 billion of
the industrys earnings in the
third quarter.
FDIC officials say the bulk of
the gains were because banks, es-
pecially credit card companies,
set aside less money for potential
losses. In the July-September pe-
riod, banks put aside $18.6 bil-
lion. Thats the lowest amount in
four years.

PARADISE TWP. Since it opened
for business in Oct. 22, 2007, Mount Ai-
ry Casino Resort has received state ap-
proval to reduce its slot machine com-
plement by nearly 18 percent.
With state gaming board approval
Tuesday to cut another 200 machines
from its gaming floor, the Monroe
County casino will soon rank near the
bottom of the states 10 operating casi-
nos in terms of number of units.
Inits applicationto the board, Mount
Airy attorneys argued that the reduc-
tioninslot machines will not reduce tax
revenue but will save the casino money
in maintenance costs. When market
demand warrants additional slot ma-
chines, the application states, Mount
Airy will add additional machines to
meet the demand.
The board voted 7-0 to permit the lat-
est reduction. In December, the casino
requested the removal of 300 machines
and the board approved half that
amount. In previous requests, the casi-
no asked for lesser numbers of ma-
chines to be taken off its gaming floor.
Each request was approved.
Richard McGarvey, a gaming board
spokesman, saidthe casinowas arguing
that the utilization of those machines
wasnt high enough to justify they re-
main.
The reduction will take place within
90 days, bringing Mount Airys slot ma-
chine total down to 2,070. At that num-
ber, Mount Airy will have just five ma-
chines morethanPresqueIsleDowns in
Erie and 468 more than SugarHouse
Casino in Philadelphia. Mohegan Sun
at Pocono Downs has 2,330.
An email to a Mount Airy spokeswo-
manseekingcomment was not immedi-
ately returned on Tuesday. Neither was
a phone message left with attorney
John Donnelly, who handled the case
for the casino.
In addition to the reduction in slot
machines, the board approved requests
by Mount Airy to relocate its poker
room to the casinos third floor and to
relocate its high-limit slot machines to
the area now occupied by the poker
room. There are currently 22 high-limit
slot machines in the room but the casi-
no said it could expand that total by 42
in the new location that is four times
the size of the current high-limit slots
room.
Mount Airy has consistently ranked
last in the state for gross slot machine
terminal revenue. Each month this fis-
cal year it has ranked10th out of 10, and
inthe past fiscal year it rankeddeadlast
of the nine casinos open the entire year
with $145,994 million.

PLYMOUTH After 30 years, Sport-
JES Sporting Goods Store in Plymouth
is shutting down.
Ed Vnuk, the 68-year-old owner of
the store and the man who conceived
Plymouths Kielbasi Festival, is retir-
ing. The stores last day of business
will be Saturday.
Fleet Decal and Graphics, operated
by Vnuks three sons Eddie, Mark
and Brian will expand its operation
into the Sport-JES space.
Vnuk, a former industrial engineer
at Lady Manhattan in Scranton, will
become a snowbird splitting his re-
tirement between Pennsylvania and
Florida. He serves as president of Fleet
Decal, but will phase out of that role as
well.
We had a good run, Vnuk said. We
were the first store to carry NFL mer-
chandise, everything from lamps to
jerseys to jackets. And we were known
as the Notre Dame bookstore of the
east.
Vnuk said people would come from
all over to purchase Notre Dame and
Penn State clothing and gift items.
Vnuk and two of his friends Jerry
Mullery Sr. and Steve Gavrish decid-
ed to open the store in 1982. Mullery
has since died and Gavrish decided to
leave the business years ago.
I got tired of going to Old Forge to
buy sporting goods for my Teeners
League team, Vnuk said. It seemed
all teams from Wyoming Valley were
going up there.
So Vnuk got a catalog from Empire
Sporting Goods and started taking or-
ders. He, Mullery and Gavrish then
opened a small store on West Main
Street. They moved to a larger store on
East Main Street shortly after, then to
their current site the former Home
Furniture Store a few years later.
Vnuk and his late wife, Barbara
who died in 2003 kept the store go-
ing. Vnuk also got involved with the
community. He was a founding mem-
ber of Plymouth Alive a group of
business people who work to improve
the business climate in the borough.
The Kielbasi Festival is held the last
Friday and Saturday in August.
Vnuk said times have changed.
There arent as many Little League
teams or softball teams around. Mer-
chandise with logos of sports teams is
found in the big chain stores and at
lower prices.
There arent as many kids involved
in athletics, Vnuk said. They prefer
to play video games and stay inside.
Sport-JES is closing
Ed Vnuk, seen here in his Plymouth sporting goods store, is retiring and the store is closing for good on Saturday.

Rainfall totals
from last night
range from 1 to
2 in most
places and with
a cold front
passing through
this morning, the
steady rain is
ending.
Scattered
showers and
drizzle will linger
into the
afternoon and
northerly winds
will turn gusty,
sending in
much colder
air tonight.
Clearing early
tonight will lead
the way for a
very sunny day
on Thursday
and on Friday.
Indeed a
remarkable
improvement
after today! The
weather will
remain dry
through
Saturday and
possibly even
Sunday with a

Wet and windy
weather could
return Monday
and Tuesday.

THANKSGIVING,
though it can be over-
whelming for the
household chef, is a
holiday on which
families get together
to enjoy each others
company and eat
various types of food. Traditional dis-
hes such as turkey, potatoes, vegetables
and, of course, stuffing, can all be part
of a memorable meal.
Stuffing is a dish that can be used to
literally stuff the bird, or it can be
roasted in a baking dish to be savored
by itself for its wonderful flavors.
Like any dish, you can prepare stuff-
ing with different seasonings, meats,
nuts or fruits. I personally enjoy stuff-
ing with sausage, bacon, chestnuts and
apples. This combination of ingre-
dients boasts a flavor that is both sweet
and savory.
SAUSAGE, BACON,
CHESTNUT AND APPLE
STUFFING
Ingredients:
1 loaf Italian bread
2 eggs
1/4 cup fresh sage, chopped, or 2 tables-
poons ground sage
1/2 tablespoon poultry seasoning
1/4 pound butter
4 ounces onions, finely chopped
2 stalks celery, cut lengthwise, then
chopped 1/8 inch thick
2 cans (14.5 ounce each) reduced-sodi-
um chicken broth
1 Granny Smith or Roma apple, cored,
cut into 8 wedges, then chopped 1/4 inch
thick
4 ounces bacon, finely chopped
1 pound pan-searing sweet sausage
9 ounces chestnuts
Yield: 10-12 servings
Pre-heat oven to 375. If using pre-pack-

aged chestnuts, lay them on a lightly
greased cookie sheet and bake in the oven
for 10 minutes or until lightly brown. If
using fresh chestnuts, cut
1
2 inch into the
shell, make sure the chestnut is sturdy
while on the surface. Place on lightly
greased cookie sheet and bake for 30
minutes at 375 degrees F. Let cool and
peel when soft.
Fry sausage and bacon in saut pan until
crisp and brown, then add butter, onions,
celery and apples. Cook on medium heat
for an extra five minutes. Pour mixture
from saut pan over bread cubes and let
cool for five minutes. Add slightly beaten
eggs, sage , poultry seasoning and chicken
broth. Salt and pepper to taste. Cover and
bake for 45 minutes, uncover and bake 5
to 10 minutes if desired.

sweet-and-savory stuffing.
Versatile.
Nutritious.
Sweet!
The versatile sweet potato
can show up from soup to nuts
or at least in a nutty dessert
during your Thanksgiving
meal.
For the soup, elegant Sweet
Potato Chowder is one of scape
restaurant chef Eric Kellys
signature dishes. Instead of
traditional biscuits, try Sweet
Potato Biscuits. A Sweet Potato
Puff is a fluffy, showy side dish,
and Southern Sweet Potato
Pecan Bread-Pudding Pie is a
decadent dessert.
Winter Vegetable Stew can do
double-duty as a side dish and
as an entree when vegetarians
are among the guests. (Thicken
it with cornstarch instead of a
butter-flour mix, and the stew
will also please vegans.)
Although the sweet potato is
used in many similar ways to
regular potatoes, it isnt a
potato at all it belongs to a
different botanical family. And
although its often called a yam,
especially in the South, true
yams are botanically distinct.
Microwaving is an easy short-
cut if you want to shorten the
cooking time for whole sweet
potatoes, but weve found that
baking them results in better
caramelization and sweetness.
In either case, cook until a syr-
upy liquid starts to ooze from
under the skin.
And dont limit your use of
sweet potatoes to the holiday
season. All year round, theyre
remarkably nutritious, high in
vitamin C and extremely high in
vitamin A. Theyre also antiox-
idant-rich, a good source of fiber
and have anti-inflammatory and
blood-sugar-regulating proper-
ties.
SWEET POTATO BISCUITS

Yield: about 16 biscuits
2 medium sweet potatoes
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter,
chilled and cut into small pieces
1/3 cup low-fat or whole milk
1. Preheat the oven to 400 de-
grees. Bake or microwave the
potatoes until soft and tender,
about 45 minutes in the oven or
about 10 minutes in the microwave.
2. When potatoes are cool
enough to touch, peel, then mash
until smooth with an old-fashioned
potato masher or in a food proc-

Add some sweetness to Thanksgiving
W
hile millions of Americans are thinking turkey, talking tur-
key and eating turkey this week, some local folks are mak-
ing room on their tables for a garlicky, specialty meat.
Ill get two rings for Thanksgiving, said Pauline Yankay of Pitt-
ston, who intends to complement her potatoes, corn and turkey with
kielbasa from her favorite sausage maker, Dave Fetch Jr. of Fetchs
Kielbassi Market in Wyoming.
Turkey without kielbasa? No way! said
Fetch, whose store proudly displays the
trophy and Kielbasa King banner he won
for first place in the smoked division of the
2011 Plymouth Kielbasa Festival competi-
tion.
Throughout Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia, makers of the Eastern European-style
treat have been getting in gear for a rush of
business that starts before Thanksgiving.
Well be going 20 hours a day in De-
cember, saidFetch, whoestimates his shop
will sell between10,000 and15,000 pounds
of kielbasa before the end of the year.
Well be here until 4 or 4:30 in the morn-
ing and come back at 8:30.
When the holidays roll around, Brenda
Sepelyak of Komenskys Market in Duryea
said, Were talking tons of kielbasa.
One reason, she said, is because people
come from out of the area and get some
for both Thanksgiving and Christmas.
Whentradition-hungry visitors returnto
their hometown, after all, it could be their
only chance to stock up on a years supply.
Orders of 30 or 40 rings of kielbasa are
not uncommon, said Michael Ell of Park
Market in Nanticoke.
If you want a large quantity, its best to
place an order. Komenskys, for example,
takes orders of 20 rings or more; Fetchs
takes orders of 10 rings or more. At Park
Market in Nanticoke, you can order even
smaller quantities.
And if you only want a fewrings, you can
always just stop by.
Perhaps speaking for many customers,
an Exeter woman named Georgeann said
she appreciates family businesses that
make kielbasa from scratch and smoke it
with cherry or hickory wood.
A small-town butcher is what I love,
she said as Fetch dished out a container of
coleslaw for her last week. They get to
know you personally, and they give you
what you want.

Dear Santa,
All I want
for
Christmas
is a new
pair of
UGGs
essor fitted with a metal blade.
Measure out 1 cup (reserve the rest
for another use).
3. In the same bowl of the food
processor or in the bowl where you
mashed the potatoes, combine
flour, sugar, baking powder and
salt. Add butter. Pulsing the proc-
essor or using a pastry blender, cut
in butter until the mixture re-
sembles coarse meal.
4. Combine sweet potato and
milk in a small bowl; whisk until
smooth. Add to the flour mixture,
mixing until just moist.
5. Turn the dough out onto a
lightly floured surface and knead
lightly four or five times. Using a
lightly floured rolling pin, roll out
the dough inch thick. Cut out 10
biscuits with a 1-inch biscuit cutter,
pressing the cutter down without
twisting so the biscuits will rise
evenly when baked.
6. Line a rimmed baking sheet
with a silicone liner or parchment
paper. Place the biscuits on the
baking sheet. Gather together the
scraps by placing the pieces on top
of each other. Roll out inch thick
and cut 5 or 6 more biscuits. Place
on the baking sheet. Discard any
remaining dough scraps.
7. Bake until lightly browned,
about 15 minutes. Transfer to a wire
rack to cool. Serve warm or at
room temperature.

SOUTHERN SWEET POTATO

PECAN BREAD-PUDDING PIE
Yield: 8 servings
For the crust:
8 ounces challah, brioche or
other similar fluffy, thick bread, cut
into 1/2-inch-thick slices
6 tablespoons (3/4 stick) un-
salted butter
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
For the filling:
12 ounces sweet potatoes, peeled
and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2/3 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
3 ounces cream cheese, soft-
ened
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 cup whole milk
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons bourbon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup pecans, chopped
For the topping:
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 tablespoons turbinado or dark
brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1. Make the crust. Adjust an oven
rack to the middle position and
preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
Arrange bread slices directly on
the oven rack and toast until gold-
en brown, about 5 minutes. Trans-
fer slices to a plate. Reduce oven
temperature to 300 degrees.
2. Grease a 9-inch deep-dish pie
plate. Microwave butter in a shal-
low dish until melted, about 2
minutes. Combine 1/3 cup sugar,
cinnamon and 1/2 teaspoon nut-
meg in a second dish. Coat one
side of toast with melted butter,
then dredge the buttered side in
the sugar mixture.
3. Arrange toast, sugared side
down, in the bottom of the pie
plate. The top crusts should point
up to create a decorative edge.
Trim and gently pack the slices so
that no open spaces remain.
4. Make the filling. Combine
potatoes and cup water in a
microwavable bowl. Cover and
microwave on high, stirring occa-
sionally, until tender, about 7 min-
utes. Drain potatoes and transfer
to a food processor. Add 2/3 cup
granulated sugar, eggs, cream
cheese and salt. Process until
smooth, about 30 seconds.
5. Transfer sweet-potato mixture
to a large bowl. Stir in milk, cup
cream, bourbon and vanilla. Pour
mixture into bread-lined pie plate,
smooth the top and sprinkle with
pecans.
6. Bake until center is set and pie
is golden brown on top, 60 to 70
minutes. Let pie cool on a wire rack
for 2 hours.
7. Make the topping. Whip cup
cream with turbinado sugar and
teaspoon nutmeg in a large bowl
with an electric mixture on medi-
um-low speed until frothy, about 1
minute. Increase mixer speed to
high and beat until cream forms
soft peaks, 1 to 3 minutes. Serve pie
slightly warm or at room temper-
ature with topping.

POTATO

Sweet potatoes are a great
ingredient especially in these
biscuits and winter vegetable
slaw.
No matter how stuffed we feel
after Thanksgiving dinner, we
still feel compelled to wrap up
with a slice of pumpkin pie.
Trouble is one slice packs tons
of extra fat and calories.
I came up with a healthier
version: just 100 calories and
less than 1 gram of fat per slice.
Youll be surprised at how
great just a few healthy sub-
stitutions taste. Stevia, agave
syrup and coconut nectar stand
in for sugar. Nonfat Greek-style
yogurt subs for whole milk.
Gelatin thickens the pie filling
and the whipped cream.
The bulk of the calories and
fat in pies comes from the crust.
Ive used sheets of stacked phyl-
lo dough, which eliminates most
of the fat and makes a great
crispy, crunchy crust.
About the whipped cream
Gelatin mixed with fat-free
milk, stevia and coconut nectar
helps the mixture truly whip.
Theres zero fat and very few
calories.
PUMPKIN PIE WITH WHIPPED

CREAM
Start to finish: 45 minutes (plus 4
hours chilling)
Servings: 10
For the pie:
Butter-flavored cooking spray
6 sheets (14-by-9-inch sheets)
frozen phyllo dough, thawed
1/4 cup cold water
1 envelope unflavored gelatin
powder
2 3/4 cups canned pumpkin
(one-and-a-half 15-ounce cans)
1 cup fat-free plain Greek-style
yogurt
1/4 cup agave syrup
4 packets stevia sweetener
powder
1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon salt
For the whipped cream:
1 cup fat-free milk, divided
1 1/8 teaspoons unflavored gela-
tin powder
1/2 tablespoon coconut nectar
3 packets stevia sweetener
1 vanilla bean, split
Heat the oven to 350. Coat a
9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.
Unroll the phyllo dough, then
cover with plastic wrap. Lay 1 sheet
of the phyllo on counter. Lightly
mist it with cooking spray. Set a
second sheet of phyllo over the
first, rotating it slightly. Mist the
second sheet of phyllo, then repeat
this process with remaining phyllo
sheets, rotating each time a sheet
is added. Mist the final sheet of
phyllo.
Use a knife to carefully trim the
stack of phyllo into a 12-inch circle.
Discard the scraps. Carefully lift
the stack and set into the prepared
pie dish, gently pressing the phyllo
against the bottom and sides of the
dish.
Bake the phyllo crust for 10 to 12
minutes or until it is lightly
browned and crisp. Set aside to
cool while preparing the filling.
In a small saucepan, combine the
cold water and envelope of gelatin.
Set aside for 5 minutes.
Set the saucepan over medium
and heat, stirring constantly, until
gelatin is dissolved. Set aside to
cool slightly.
In a large bowl, stir together the
pumpkin, yogurt, agave, 4 packets
of stevia, pumpkin-pie spice, vanilla
extract and salt. Stir in the gelatin
mixture, mixing well. Pour pie filling
into the cooled phyllo crust. Chill in
fridge 4 to 6 hours before serving.
When ready to serve, prepare
the whipped cream. In small bowl,
combine 2 tablespoons of milk and
the gelatin. Set aside for 5 min-
utes.
In a small saucepan over medi-
um, combine the remaining milk,
coconut nectar and 3 packets of
stevia. With the tip of a small knife,
slice open the vanilla bean, then
scrape the seeds into the pot.
Discard the vanilla pod. Bring the
mixture to a simmer, stirring to
dissolve the nectar. Add the gelatin
mixture to the hot milk and whisk
to dissolve. Pour the mixture into a
medium stainless-steel bowl or into
the bowl of a stand mixer.
Place a larger bowl half-filled
with ice water beneath the bowl of
milk mixture (if using a stand mixer,
put small zip-close bags of ice
around the bottom of the mixer
bowl). Beat the milk mixture with
the whisk attachment on high for 8
to 10 minutes, or until the mixture
is thickened to a whipped cream
consistency. The volume of the
mixture will grow as it cools and
whips.
To serve, cut the pie into 10
wedges. Spoon 2 tablespoons of
the whipped cream over each.

HOW TO CONTACT:
Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Im a
freshman in college
and have the sweet-
est boyfriend in the
world. Weve always
been close and trust-
ed each other, never
pushing the other
too far.
Last weekend, though, things got a
little heavy between us. We stopped
before anything happened, but I felt
dirty afterward. As I thought about it,
I realized that, to me, it had seemed
OK that our relationship was starting
to take a more intimate turn.
I dont know how to bring up the
sex talk with him without seeming
desperate or like Im rushing things.
What should I do?
Needs to Know in Virginia
Dear Needs To Know: If this is the
first time you and a young man have
gotten a little heavy, then its not
surprising that you felt conflicted, de-
pending upon how you were raised to
think about premarital relations.
However, because you have now
progressed to the point of physical
intimacy, it is important that you and
your boyfriend talk about last week-
end and what may happen in the fu-
ture. Share your feelings and ask how
HE feels about what happened and
what he would like to happen going
forward. Thats not desperate or rush-
ing things that is communication.
Dear Abby: A few weeks ago, my
wife returned from a business meet-
ing out of town. After unpacking,
she took a bath. I happened into the
bathroom just as she finished drying
off. When she saw me, she grabbed
a towel and held it over her shoulder
and breast, but not before I spotted a
hickey and bruise on her chest.
When I asked her about the hickey,
she said she had no idea what had
caused it. After that, she refused to
discuss the matter.
Yesterday she agreed to take a poly-
graph test, but how do we go about
arranging one? Your thoughts?
Troubled Husband in Texas
Dear Troubled Husband: If your
marriage is on such thin ice that you
need a lie detector test to determine
if your wife is telling the truth, you
may need the services of a family law
specialist.
You asked my opinion, and here it
is: From my perspective, you and your
wife could benefit more from some
truth sessions with a marriage coun-
selor than with a polygraph examiner.
However, one way to find a polygraph
examiner would be to Google poly-
graph examiners in Texas. Another
would be to consult an attorney about
a referral.
And now, Dear Readers, allow
me to again share the traditional
Thanksgiving Prayer that was
penned by my dear mother, Pauline
Phillips. No Thanksgiving would be
complete for me without it:
Oh, Heavenly Father,
We thank Thee for food and re-
member the hungry.
We thank Thee for health and re-
member the sick.
We thank Thee for freedom and
remember the enslaved.
May these remembrances stir us to
service,
That Thy gifts to us may be used
for others. Amen.
Have a safe and happy Thanksgiv-
ing, everyone!
Love, Abby
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Young couple considering sex should first explore their feelings
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your
desire to attain a personal goal is
strong and growing. If you want
something badly enough, youll
do what it takes.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your
confidence wavers. Its under-
standable. No one can be 100
percent all of the time. When you
feel uncertain about your abili-
ties, dont let it show.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You may
feel like a pesky child on a car
trip who asks, Are we there
yet? Learning new skills takes
time. Start down the path and
stay determined. Youll be there
when you get there.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youll
put yourself out there and get a
mixed bag of results. The statis-
tics will be confusing. Whether
the action was a success or a
failure can only be determined
by you.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You know
how you feel at any given time.
Your high emotional intelligence
will allow you to maintain your
personal integrity.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Cleanup
is a creative process. It gives you
control over more than just your
immediate environment. Youll
eliminate the excess so that you
can focus your attention on the
most important elements.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youve
been settling for less attention
and respect than you deserve.
Your sharp intuition will now pull
you toward situations in which
your talents are needed.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll
learn most from someone who
tunes in to what youre doing
and gives you extremely specific
advice. Those who try to lump
you in with the crowd wont be
able to get to the heart of what
you need.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You realize that you can del-
egate the tasks that eat away
your time without challenging
you. Once you focus on what you
want, youll get something even
better than that.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Sometimes its the little things
that provoke a big reaction.
Youll add sparkling details to
your work that excite people and
get them talking about you in a
favorable way.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Youll
experience many different emo-
tional tones today. Your real bril-
liance will be your ability to bring
yourself back to a peaceful state
of mind regardless of what hap-
pens to rattle your Zen.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). In
some way, you are learning to
walk again. Missteps are still
steps. They are actions that
seem to zig and zag or move you
backward instead of forward
but this still can be considered
progress.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Nov. 23).
Your cosmic birthday gift is a
sign from the universe that you
are on the right track. Youll
appreciate the lifestyle upgrade
that comes in December. In
2012, you try a new approach
with loved ones and finally get
the tenderness and respect you
deserve. Theres a professional
breakthrough in May. Capricorn
and Pisces people adore you.
Your lucky numbers are: 4, 19,
22, 40 and 31.

NOTICE OF FINDING OF NO SIGNIFI-
CANT IMPACT AND
NOTICE OF INTENT TO REQUEST
RELEASE OF FUNDS
November 23, 2011
County of Luzerne c/o Office of
Community Development
54 West Union Street
(570) 824-7214 (570) 693-3800
(570) 459-1814
These notices shall satisfy two separate
but related procedural requirements for
activities to be undertaken by the County
of Luzerne.
REQUEST FOR RELEASE OF FUNDS
On or about December 9, 2011 the County
of Luzerne will submit a request to the
United States Department of Housing and
Urban Development (HUD) for the release
of HOME Investment Partnerships Pro-
grams Funds under TITLE II of the
Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable
Housing Act of 1990, as amended, to
undertake a project known as the St. Hed-
wigs Veterans Village Apartments. A por-
tion of the project involves demolition to
the rectory and convent for adequate
parking spaces. The school will then be
converted into 12 apartments, four two
bedroom apartments and eight single bed
apartments to home homeless veterans
and their families. Project is located in
Kingston Borough, Luzerne County, Penn-
sylvania. Total estimated project costs are
$2,000,000. Of that amount, $400,000 is
HOME allocation monies.
FINDING OF NO SIGNIFICANT IMPACT
The County of Luzerne has determined
that the project will have no significant
impact on the human environment. There-
fore, an Environmental Impact Statement
under the National Environmental Policy
Act of 1969 (NEPA) is not required. Addi-
tional project information is contained in
the Environmental Review Record (ERR)
on file at the Luzerne County Office of
Community Development, 54 West Union
Street, Wilkes-Barre PA 18711, and may be
examined or copied weekdays 9:00 A.M.
to 4:30 P.M.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
Any individual, group, or agency may sub-
mit written comments on the ERR to the
County of Luzerne at the Luzerne County
Office of Community Development, 54
West Union Street, Wilkes-Barre, PA
18711. All comments received by Decem-
ber 8, 2011 will be considered by the
County of Luzerne prior to authorizing sub-
mission of a request for release of funds.
Comments should specify which Notice
they are addressing.
ENVIRONMENTAL CERTIFICATION
The County of Luzerne certifies to HUD
that Maryanne C. Petrilla, in her capacity
as Chairman of the Board of Commission-
ers of the County of Luzerne, consents to
accept the jurisdiction of the Federal
Courts if an action is brought to enforce
responsibilities in relation to the environ-
mental review process and that these
responsibilities have been satisfied.
HUDs approval of the certification satis-
fies its responsibilities under NEPA and
related laws and authorities and allows the
County of Luzerne to use Program funds.
OBJECTIONS TO RELEASE OF
FUNDS
HUD will consider objections to its release
of funds and the County of Luzernes cer-
tification for a period of fifteen days follow-
ing the anticipated submission date or its
actual receipt of the request (whichever is
later), only if they are on one of the follow-
ing bases: (a) the certification was not
executed by the Certifying Officer of the
County of Luzerne; (b) the County of
Luzerne has omitted a step or failed to
make a decision or finding required by
HUD regulations at 24 CFR Part 58; (c) the
grant recipient, or other participants in the
development process, have committed
funds, incurred costs, or undertaken activ-
ities not authorized by 24 CFR Part 58
before approval of a release of funds by
HUD; or (d) another Federal agency acting
pursuant to 40 CFR Part 1504 has submit-
ted a written finding that the project is
unsatisfactory from the standpoint of envi-
ronmental quality. Objections must be
prepared and submitted in accordance
with the required procedures (24 CFR Part
58, Sec. 58.76) and shall be addressed to
HUD, Director, Office of Community Plan-
ning and Development at its Pennsylvania
State Office Building, 100 Penn Square
East, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19107-
3380. Potential objectors should contact
HUD to verify the actual last day of the
objection period.
