Faced with massive losses of state money, many
Luzerne County school districts have frozen sala-
ries of workers whohave employment contracts but
no union: Administrators and others who fall under
the state lawcommonly knownas
Act 93.
And though many of the sala-
ries are high, the savings are
small.
While high administrator sala-
ries are a frequent target of tax-
payer watchdogandpublic educa-
tion critics, a Times Leader analy-
sis shows that, on average, Act 93
wages make up about 2.8 percent
of district budgets, andthat salary
raises average a scant 0.6 percent
of total spending.
Act 93 covers non-unionized
workers. In most districts that
means primarily administrators
such as principals and central of-
fice department directors or su-
pervisors. In some cases, it in-
cludes superintendents, though
they often have separate con-
tracts. And occasionally districts
include some key secretaries or
other positions Pittston Area,
for example, puts security staff
under Act 93.
Amajority of Luzerne Countys 11districts either
have frozen Act 93 salaries for the upcoming school
year or are in negotiations that could lead to a
freeze. Because so many contracts are in negotia-
tions or are newly settled, accurate calculations of
true savings are impossible, but a best-guess esti-
mate suggests a complete freeze on Act 93 salaries
would net Luzerne County residents savings of less
than $400,000.
Thats plenty of money, but peanuts compared to
SCHOOL COSTS
Freezing
salaries
little help
to budget
Administrative pay hikes look like a good
place for a struggling school system to cut,
but the savings are miniscule.

ALEXANDRIA, Va. His gait
was a little stiff, courtesy of a
pulled hamstring that served to
remind U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta
that years have passed since he
was a speedy 21-year-old center
fielder who tried out in 1977 for
the Cincinnati Reds.
But clad in a Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees jersey, Barletta
strode to the plate at Four Mile
Run Park here early Wednesday
morning a fewmiles away from
Capitol Hill where the freshman
Republican would spend the rest
of his day wearing a suit, attend-
ing committee hearings and cast-
ing House floor votes.
When Barletta laced a hit
through the hole between the
third baseman and the shortstop,
a chorus of chatter went up from
a groupof fellowGOPlawmakers
just about as happy to see himon
the field as in the halls of Con-
gress.
Sure, GOP House members
were pleased when Barletta, a
former Hazleton mayor, defeated
veteran Democratic Rep. Paul
Kanjorski last year as part of the
wave of victories nationwide that
helped Republicans regain a
House majority.
But they became even more
enamored of their new colleague
when they got wind of his base-
ball not just political record
and learned that he was a switch
hitter at the plate, and reliable
center fielder whoalsocouldtake
the mound as a lefty pitcher.
We havent had a lot of pitch-
ing depth, says. Rep. Joe Barton,
R-Texas, who has played for or
coached the GOP team since
1987 and is in his fifth year as BILL CLARK PHOTOS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER

TROTWOOD, Ohio Grow-
ing up, Adrian McLemore was a
troubled little soul who spent
much of his time exploding in
confusion and rage.
At 6, he nearly set the house on
fire.
At 7, his mother raising him
and his two sisters alone in Geor-
gia toldsocial workers toplace
himin a foster home.
McLemore wouldspenda total
of 11 years in foster care and he
would learn many things how
to control his anger, howto chan-
nel it into programs that helped
children like himself, how to sur-
vive in homes where families had
completelydifferent rules andex-
pectations.
He learned that foster kids are
largely invisible tothe lawmakers
who craft the rules that govern
their lives. And he became deter-
mined to change that, joining
youth organizations, becoming a
dynamic young leader who lob-
bied fiercely for the rights of fos-
ter children to a better childhood
and a better preparation for
adulthood.
And then, at 22, McLemore
whohaddevotedsomuchtimeto
thinking, speaking and writing
about the lessons of his own
childhood would be given a
chance to put those lessons into
practice.
Overnight, he became a fa-
ther.
Alife is greatly changed
The call came shortly after
midnight onDec. 20, 2009. There
hadbeenabadsituationat his sis-
tershouse, thesheriff toldhimon
the phone (McLemore wont dis-
cuss the details). Her children
3-year-old ARayiah and 1-year-
oldTyiaunhadbeentakeninto
custody.
Driving to the police station,
McLemore knewexactly
how things would un-
fold. The children would
be separated and placed
indifferent foster homes.
There would be tense
weekly visits with their
mother in a small room
at the Montgomery
County Department of
Job and Family Services.
His sister would vent at
the case workers. ARay-
iah would cry.
It would be like watch-
ing his own wounded
childhood, repeating it-
self.
McLemore was a full-
time student at Wright
State University studying politi-
cal science. His days were packed
with classes and studies, as well
as a grueling schedule of speech-
es, presentations, committee
meetings. And he had a job at a
video store.
But he didnt hesitate.
I will takecareof mynieceand
nephew, he told the authorities.
I will feedthemandtakethemto
day care. I will give thema stable
home. I know them. And I love
themlike no one else can.
And so he bundled up the chil-
dren and drove them to his two-
bedroom apartment on Culzean
Drive.
McLemore is well known as
one of the success stories of the
Ohio Foster care community.
Some of the people closest tohim
are social workers who have seen
himblossomover the years.
Word spread quickly. Friends
threw a baby shower collect-
ing clothes and toys.
They helped with baby-sitting.
They coached him on diaper-
changing and offered advice on
nighttime crying.
But for all the outpouring of
support and goodwill, there were
some who felt he had made a
huge mistake. You dont know
what you are getting into, they
warned. Your studies will suffer.
How are you going to provide for
two small children who need ev-
erything?
McLemore had just one re-
sponse.
I refuse to allow another gen-
eration of McLemores to be
raised in foster care.
Childhood grows troubled
One of McLemores prizedpos-
sessions is a large painting in his
livingroom. It depicts McLemore
shoulder to shoulder with a thin,
serious looking man in military
uniform.
McLemore worships the mem-
ory of his father, who died of can-
cer in 2004. The two years he
lived with his Dad, he says, were
the happiest of his life.
Hewas 9at thetime, andhis be-
loved grandmother Essie his
fathers mother haddecidedto
take him out of foster care and
raise him herself. And then, the
unimaginablehappened. Shewas
killedina car accident onher way
to pick himup.
McLemore was so bereft he
tried to drown himself in the
bathtub.
His father, Air Force
Staff Sgt. Ernest McLe-
more, had long been di-
vorced from McLe-
mores mother and had
beenstationedoverseas.
He returned for the fu-
neral and told McLe-
more and his two sisters
that he was taking them
to Las Vegas to begin a
newlife.
McLemores face
glows as he talks of
those years, of being
with his sisters, of hav-
inghisownroom, of hav-
ing a father who took
them to soccer and kar-
ate and theme parks.
But that blissful time ended as
abruptly as it had begun. His fa-
ther was being shipped overseas.
The children were going back to
their mother, who had moved to
Ohio.
There, McLemore said, things
spiraled out of control. Their
mother drank. She went missing.
There was often no food or clean
clothes. He would run away.
Social worker Carla Merritt re-
members an intense, unruly
young teen seething with anger
andbitterness. But she also sawa
determination and focus rare for
such a child.
Adrian, she told him, you
have such great potential. You
could do anything, be anything.
But you have to learn to close
your mouth and listen.
But nothing could contain
McLemores anger the day he
went to middle school in clothes
that smelled like fish.
He stormed home, took out his
Sunday suit and wore it to school
the next morning. Fromthat day,
Adrian McLemore would always
be the best dressed person in the
room.
Family has a value
The biggest thing children
need, in addition to uncondition-
al love, is acomfortable, safeenvi-
ronment, a sense of stability and
permanence, McLemore says,
with all the clarity of someone
who did not have these things.
Children need to knowtheir sib-
lings and spend time with them,
not just in weekly visits with a
case worker, but at picnics and in
parks and with family members
like aunts and uncles and grand-
parents.
McLemore is sitting in his liv-
ing room, but he speaks with the
same conviction and intensity he
has brought to speeches before
countlessstateandcongressional
committees and study groups.
Determinedtorunfor political of-
fice someday, he addresses law-
makers as my future colleagues
as he urges them to increase, not
reduce, funding for foster care
programs.
Impeccably dressed, with a
deep voice and imposing pres-
ence, McLemore makes a strik-
ing impression. And he gets
things done.
He successfully advocated to
have Medicaid coverage extend-
edto age 21for former foster chil-
dren. He was a founding member
and first president of the Ohio
Youth Advisory Board, which has
become a powerful advocacy
groupfor foster youth. Heworked
withtheadministrationat Wright
to allow former foster students
live in dorms during school
breaks, so they wouldnt end up
homeless.
McLemore isnt sure what
prompted himto get so involved.
Perhaps he wanted to escape the
loneliness of an uncertain home
life by becoming part of a larger
community, creatingafamily of
his own.
For although McLemore has
nothing but respect and admira-
tionfor thefamilies whocaredfor
him, their homes never felt like
the loving, permanent home he
has created for ARayiah and Ty-
iaun.
You simply never know when
you might be told to pack your
things andleave, he says. Infos-
ter care, families can always say,
Take him back. Real parents
dont have that option.
Children mean a lot
Hecalls themmyprecious car-
go
ARayiah, 4, has eyes that turn
from pale green to gray, and a
mopof pink-beadedbraids. Sweet
and soft-spoken, she dreams of
playing basketball, of living with
her mom, of havingher uncle buy
a van big enough to hold their en-
tire extended family of cousins
and aunts and grandparents.
Her 2-year-old brother, Tyiaun,
is a cherubic-faced tornado of en-
ergy, tottering and tumbling,
smiling when he is not pouting,
asking never ending questions in
a language all his own.
Parenthoodhas changedevery-
thing about McLemores life, ex-
cept his long-term goals. Gone
are the days of living on chili
cheese fries and root beer. Now
his shopping list includes Lunch-
ables, fruit cups and diapers.
His social lifeis practicallynon-
existent, except during football
seasonwhenhespendseverypos-
sible moment watching the Den-
ver Broncos. Weekends, whenthe
children visit their mother, are
devotedtosleeping, cleaningand
catching up on studies.
McLemore believes father-
hood has humbled him, made
himfeel less self-important.
I come home at the end of the
day, and its all about them, he
says.

SWEET SOUNDS
NIKO J. KALLIANIOTIS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Sugarland performs at the Toyota Pavilion at Montage
Mountain Saturday night. For a review of the show, see
Mondays edition of The Times Leader.
NEW YORK Clarence
Clemons, the larger-than-life
saxophone player for the E
Street Band who was one of the
key influences in Bruce Spring-
steens life and music through
four decades, has died. He was
69.
Clemons was hospitalized
about a week ago after suffering
a stroke at his home in Singer Is-
land, Fla. He died of complica-
tions fromthe stroke, spokeswo-
manMarilynLavertysaidSatur-
day.
Known as the Big Man for his
imposing 6-foot-5-inch, 270-plus
pound frame, Clemons and his
ever-present saxophone spent
much of his life with The Boss,
and his booming saxophone so-
los became a signature sound
for the E Street Band on many
key songs, including Jungle-
land, a triumphant solo he
spent 16 hours perfecting, and
Born To Run.
In recent years, Clemons had
been slowed by health woes. He
endured major spinal surgery in
January 2010 and, at the 2009
Super Bowl, Clemons rose from
a wheelchair to perform with
Springsteen after double knee
replacement surgery.
But his health seemed to be
improving. In May, he perform-
ed with Lady Gaga on the sea-
son finale of American Idol,
and performed on two songs on
her Born This Way album.
Clemons also performed with
the Grateful Dead, the Jerry
Garcia Band, and Ringo Starrs
All Star Band. He recorded with
a wide range of artists including
Aretha Franklin, Roy Orbison
and Jackson Browne.

State police issue warning
State police are investigating a re-
ported phone scam and wish to warn
area residents about the scheme.
State police said a Wayne County
resident reported on Thursday receiv-
ing a phone call from a man relating
that he was an Officer Frank Johnson
from the Department of Law and En-
forcement in New York. The caller said
a lawsuit had been filed against the
Wayne County resident and that the
person would go to jail if they did not
pay $20,000, police said.
The caller, who reportedly spoke
broken English, also said he would go
to the residents house if the $20,000
was not paid by a certain date and
made threats, state police said.
The call came from 646-470-3597,
state police said. 646 is a New York
City area code.
State police said this sort of scam is
becoming prevalent in the Wayne
County area and wish to warn residents
not to provide any information to the
callers should they receive such a call.

of representatives from the Susquehan-
na Greenway, The Delaware & Lehigh
National Heritage Corridor and Penn
State University interns. This official
community assessment will help create
a picture of present day Shickshinny to
help the borough plan for the future.
Shickshinny was officially designated
a Susquehanna Greenway River Town
earlier this spring because of the com-
munitys efforts that have been under
way the past few years to connect the
community with the river, create a
riverfront park and river access area,
connect Shickshinny and other commu-
nities with a system of trails, preserve
its local history, conserve the envi-
ronment, promote businesses and
welcome visitors.

WILKES-BARRE The no parking
signs went up on Coal Street last week
and so did Jim Grasavages frustration
level.
Accustomed to parking in front of his
house, Grasavage and other residents
like himwere forced to find spots on the
already crowded side streets.
The signs are temporary, but the ban
will be permanent. The $12 million pro-
ject to widenandredirect the busy road-
way to a new intersection at Wilkes-
Barre Boulevardbans on-street parking.
For us, its veryfrustrating, saidGra-
savage. Itsaveryfrustratingsituation.
The 53-year resident of Coal Street
met with neighbors in his house Satur-
day to speak out against the ban. Jack
Jones has livedonthe street for 39 years
and Doreen Finley for 40 years.
The city was not upfront about the
ban and its disrupting their lives, they
said.
Were taxpayers, said Grasavage.
We feel our taxes should be reduced
now.
Finley and her husband Timare mov-
ing to a neighboring township and they
saytheparkingbanis oneof thereasons.
They worry about sellingtheir house on
Coal Street, however.
Whos going to buy a house where
you cant park, asked TimFinley.
When the project is completed there
will be a 12-space parklet between
North Hancock and North Grant streets
andthespaceswill beavailableonafirst-
come, first-serve basis, said Butch Frati,
the citys director of operations.

EDWARDSVILLE The church bells
tolled along Zerby Avenue on Saturday
morning to mark the centennial cele-
bration of St. John the Baptist Ortho-
dox Church.
Following a procession of the faith-
ful, a special Divine
Liturgy was celebrat-
ed by His Grace, Bish-
op Tikhon from the
Diocese of Philadel-
phia and Eastern
Pennsylvania accom-
panied by more than
20 Orthodox clergy
from throughout the
eastern United States.
St. Johns parish
priest Father Martin
Browne hosted the
visiting clergy at the
church rectory. Ac-
cording to church offi-
cials, St. Johns was
founded in 1910 by a
group of Russian im-
migrants who settled
on the Wyoming Val-
leys West Side and found employment
in the local mining and textile industri-
es. Over the past century, St. Johns
parishioners have included teachers,
doctors, accountants, priests and mil-
itary officers.
This centennial is a great accom-
plishment for our church, said Ed
Morgans, assistant secretary of the
church council. My grandparents
helped build this church 100 years ago,
so my roots go back to St. Johns very
beginning.
A number of St. Johns founding fam-
ilies were on hand to commemorate
the event. I was baptized here over 60
years ago, said long-time church

WILKES-BARRE A crowd of bar-
gain hunters filled the tent at the
annual book sale sponsored by the
Friends of the Osterhout Free Library
on Saturday to show their support, as
they have for the past 35 years.
The sale, which runs through June
25, features loads of great books at
great prices along with a selection of
videos, CDs, DVDs as well as vinyl
records.
Were always concerned with bud-
get cuts, said Osterhouts Develop-
ment Director Christopher Kelly. In
the past, our annual book sale helped
defray the cost of those government
funding cuts. This particular fun-
draiser is so important to our ongo-
ing operation because it has consis-
tently raised between $20,000 and
$25,000 for the library each and ev-
ery year.
Library officials said that in addi-
tion to books, donations come in the
form of computers, furniture and
shelving so vital to the librarys day-
to-day operations.
The donations run the gamut
from checkout scanners to book carts
and desks, Kelly said. And sale pro-
ceeds go to fund various programs
for children, teens and adults
throughout the year.

PHOENIX
Giffords visits hometown
R
ep. Gabrielle Giffords lost little
time after her release from the
hospital in returning to her hometown,
visiting Tucson for Fathers Day for the
first time since shortly after she was
gravely wounded in a shooting ram-
page in January.
Weve been dreaming of this trip for
some time, Giffords astronaut hus-
band, Mark Kelly, said in a news re-
lease Friday. Gabby misses Tucson
very much and her doctors have said
that returning to her hometown could
play an important role in her recovery.
Kelly said the trip is sure to be very
emotional and hopes the news media
respects their privacy.
Giffords spokesman C.J. Karamargin
said the Democratic congresswoman
traveled by private plane from Houston
to Tucson with Kelly and one of his
daughters and shell spend Fathers
Day weekend with her family.
ORLANDO, FLA.
Testimony: Autopsy shoddy
A renowned forensic expert testified
Saturday that the autopsy done on
2-year-old Caylee Anthony was shod-
dy and that the duct tape Florida
prosecutors contend suffocated the
child was not applied until after her
body had decomposed.
Dr. Werner Spitz offered his opinion
on the third day of the defenses case in
the murder trial of Casey Anthony, the
Florida mother charged with murder in
Caylees death. The state rested its case
earlier in the week.
Spitz has been an expert witness in
several high-profile cases, including
that of O.J. Simpson. Spitz also testi-
fied it was a failure that Caylees skull
was not opened during the official
autopsy. Spitz conducted a second
autopsy later.
The head is part of the body and
when you do an examination, you
examine the whole body, Spitz said.
... That to me is a signal of a shoddy
autopsy.
WARSAW, POLAND
Air show plane crashes
A small plane lost control and
plunged into a river Saturday as it
performed stunts at an air show in
Plock, Poland.
The news station TVN24 broadcast
images of the small plane doing aero-
batics when it began spewing out
plumes of dark smoke and then
plunged into the Vistula River.
Rescue workers pulled the pilot from
the wreckage and tried to resuscitate
him before sending him to a hospital. It
was not immediately clear if he sur-
vived.
MORELIA, MEXICO
Nine bodies discovered
Mexican authorities said Saturday
the bodies of nine victims of suspected
drug violence have turned up in the
western state of Michoacan.
The state prosecutors office said in a
statement that authorities found eight
bodies in three different areas of the
port city of Lazaro Cardenas. Three of
the cadavers had been dumped in front
of the state public security agency.
Another body was found in the state
capital of Morelia.
Several of the still unidentified bod-
ies were discovered with messages
from the Knights Templar and claiming
responsibility for the killings. The
violence is due to a rupture in the La
Familia crime organization after the
gangs leader, Nazario Moreno, was
killed in a shootout with police Dec. 9.

KABUL, Afghanistan President
Hamid Karzai acknowledged Saturday
that the U.S. and Afghan governments
have held talks with Taliban emissaries
ina bidtoendthenations nearly10-year
war, even as suicide attackers launched
a bold assault in the heart of the coun-
tys capital, killing nine people.
The attack, which occurred just
blocks from Karzais office, shows the
parties have a long way to go to reach a
political settlement as the Obama ad-
ministrationweighs a major withdrawal
of its forces. The White House neither
directly confirmed or denied Karzais
statement.
Three men wearing camouflage fa-
tigues that are frequently worn by Af-
ghan soldiers stormed a police station
near the presidential palace, with one of
themdetonating an explosives vest just
outside the gates as two others rushed
inside and began firing, an Interior Min-
istry statement said.
The crackle of gunfire echoed
through the usually bustling streets for
about two hours before security forces
killed the two remaining attackers. In-
surgents killed three police officers, one
intelligence agent and five civilians in
the attack, according to the ministry
statement.
Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Muja-
hid claimed responsibility for the attack
in a text message to The Associated
Press.
Attacks in the Afghan capital have
been relatively rare, although violence

CHICAGOAfive-hour com-
puter outage that virtually shut
down United Airlines Friday
night andearlySaturdayis a stark
reminder of how dependent air-
lines have become ontechnology.
Passengers saw their flight in-
formation vanish from airport
screens, and thousands were
stranded as United canceled 31
flights and de-
layed105 world-
wide.
The airline
still had no ex-
planation for
the outage Sat-
urday after-
noon. But
things could
havebeenmuch
worse.
A blizzard in
the Northeast
wiped out more
than 10,000
flights over three days in Decem-
ber, and a mid-January storm led
airlines to cancel nearly 9,000
flights.
Fridays shutdown occurred
late enough in the day that many
of the canceled flights were the
last planes out for the day, said
Henry Harteveldt, an airline ana-
lyst with Forrester Research. On
a Monday morning, the results
could have been catastrophic.
It happened as a lot of the air-
line was going to sleep for the
night, Harteveldt said.
That doesnt mean affected
travelers were happy.
Im just amazed at how cata-
strophic the failure was, said Ja-
son Huggins, 35, who was trying
to fly home to Chicago after a
week working at his software
companys San Francisco head-
quarters. All the computer
screens were blank, just showing
the United logo.
Huggins paid $1,200 to book
one of the last three seats left on
an American Airlines flight
home.
Airplanes are flying fuller this
summer. Uniteds were 86.8 per-
cent booked on average in May.

way, and its time for
New York to lead the
way once again.
The effort carries
some political peril but
could be potentially re-
warding, givenevolving
public sentiment ongay
rights in New York and
the nation.
It looks like a profile in courage, and
maybe it is, said Larry Sabato, director
of the Center for Politics at the University
of Virginia. But it also may be politically
smart in the long run.
Cuomos support for gay rights is al-
ready known to New York voters. His ef-
forts this past weektoget the bill through

good on an issue he ran on last year. Dur-
ALBANY, N.Y. Gov. AndrewCuomo
has become a prominent champion of le-
galized gay marriage, pushing his state
intothecenter of thenational debateover
an emotional and divisive issue.
Inthe past week, the Democrat has per-
sonallylobbiedwaveringRepublicanlaw-
makers andhas saidthe extensionof mar-
riage rights to gays andlesbians is a mat-
ter of principle, not politics.
This state has a proud tradition and a
proud legacy as the progressive capital of
the nation, he said Friday. We led the
ing that campaign, he took his daughters
to a gay pride parade in New York City,
drawing sharp criticism from his Repub-
lican opponent.
The governor is putting skin in the
game and has a steadfast commitment to
the issue, said Kevin Nix of the Human
Rights Campaign, a gay rights group.
As a purely political matter, advocating
for gay marriage makes sense for Demo-
crats in a state like New York, where gay
groups are players in party politics. Cuo-
mos lobbying, coming after he pushed
througha fiscallyconservative budget, al-
so could burnish his image among liber-
als. Cuomo is an astute politician who
was a keyplayer inhis father Marios cam-
paigns for New York governor three dec-
ades ago.
Polls have shownthat more thanhalf of
voters inNewYorksupport gay marriage.

TRIPOLI, Libya NATO hit back
against Moammar Gadhafis defianceSat-
urday, sayingthe Libyanleader is brutal-
ly attacking his people and using
mosques and childrens parks as shields
for his military operations.
At least two explo-
sions also shook Tripoli
as NATO jets soared
above the capital, hours
after Gadhafi lashedout
against airstrikes late
Friday in a speech, in-
sisting NATO will be
defeated. It was not
immediately clear what had been hit or if
any casualties were reported.
InBrussels onSaturday, NATOspokes-
woman Oana Lungescu dismissed Gad-
hafis speech as outrageous.
The alliance, which has a mandate to
protect civilians, has beenrampingupthe
pressure on Gadhafis regime as a four-
month uprising devolved into a civil war.
Though most airstrikes happen under
cover of darkness, daytime raids have
grown more frequent.
Libyas Health Ministry released new
casualty figures that put the number of ci-
vilians purportedly killed in NATO air-
strikes through June 7 at 856. The figure
could not be independently verified, and
government-announced tolls from indi-
vidual strikes were exaggerated.

HARRISBURG A short
discussion, a unanimous vote
and the deed was done the
Senate Environmental Re-
sources and Energy Commit-
tee sent to the floor of the Leg-
islature a bill to extract tens of
millions of dollars annually
fromnatural gas drilling on the
rich Marcellus Shale forma-
tion,
Tuesdays action all but
guarantees that debate over
the white-hot issue will open
perhaps as early as next
week as legislative leaders
and Gov. Tom Corbett enter
the endgame of negotiations
over a deficit-threatened state
budget for the year starting Ju-
ly 1.
Whether the drilling and
budget debates will intersect is
unclear. But at least a dozen
bills are pending a smorgas-
bord of taxes and fees pro-
posed by members of both par-
ties in both houses and
there appears to be bipartisan,
majority support in both cham-
bers for some tax or a more
limited impact fee on the
drilling activity that is rapidly
expanding across northern and
western Pennsylvania.
Right now, its a feeding
frenzy, said Sen. Mary Jo
White, the
committees
chairwoman
and author of
an amend-
ment that the
panel at-
tached to Sen-
ate President
Pro Tempore Joe Scarnatis im-
pact-fee bill before sending it
to the floor.
A poll released this week by
Connecticut-based Quinnipiac
University indicated that two
out of three Pennsylvanians
support the natural gas indus-
try for the economic benefits it
provides to some of the states
most economically disadvan-
taged communities. A January
poll commissioned by the
Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
showed about the same pro-
portion favoring a tax on drill-
ing.
Corbett, a Republican in his
first year as governor, has
ruled out a broad tax on drill-
ing that would raise revenue
for other state programs on the
grounds that it would stifle the
industrys growth. But he has
said he would consider an im-
pact fee that primarily helps
municipalities pay for road re-
pairs and other work related to
the effect of local drilling.
The governor, who promised
as a candidate not to raise any
state taxes, wants to put off
any decision until after July 22
several weeks after lawmak-
ers typically have approved the
budget and left the Capitol for
the summer so he can weigh
the findings of his Marcellus
Shale Advisory Commission.
An impact fee is not a part
of this budget, said Corbett
spokesman Kevin Harley, par-
aphrasing his boss and echoing
House Republican leaders.
Scarnati, the ranking Repub-
lican senator and a key player
in the budget talks, believes
postponing action may be po-
litically impossible.
Noting that painful budget
cuts are inevitable in a year in
which state faces a prospective
$4 billion shortfall, Scarnati
summed up many legislators
attitude as, Were not going to
go home cutting programs and
not levying a fee on this indus-
try.
Scarnati, R-Jefferson, said
the drilling debate should be
separate from the budget. Oth-
erwise, he said, lawmakers
may press their drilling pro-
posals as amendments to the
fiscal code bill a companion
to the budget bill that tells
state agencies how to spend
their appropriations and
disrupt the budget process.
Its fine to say were going to
wait until July 22, but I dont
think the Democrats and some
Republicans see that date as
magic, he said.
Rep. Joe Markosek, the rank-
ing Democrat on the House
Appropriations Committee,
said leaders of the minority
party are keeping their options
open, but could support a rea-
sonable tax or fee with the rev-
enues supporting local govern-
ments and environmental pro-
tection
Youre only going to get one
bite of the apple at that issue,
the Allegheny County lawmak-
er said, so it has to be some-
thing that is very reasonable.
Rep. Kate Harper said she in-
cluded a provision in her sever-
ance tax bill that reduces the
rate for new wells in response
to Corbetts concern about tax-
es hurting the industry.
Were not trying to fight
with him, she said. What
were trying to do is find a solu-
tion that he finds acceptable.
The Montgomery County
Republican said linking the
drilling issue to the budget
makes sense.
Deadlines are good and the
budget is a natural deadline for
getting other things done as
well, she said. All the moving
pieces are in play.

SHANKSVILLE The Flight
93 National Memorial is close to
beingfinishedintime for the10th
anniversary of the Sept. 11 at-
tacks, including a long, white
marble wall bearing the names of
the 40 passengers and crew who
perishedwhenthe plane crashed.
Visitors will be able to follow a
walkway just over 100 yards away
from where the plane crashed.
The design features dark con-
crete paths anda long, white mar-
ble wall inscribedwiththe names
of the 40 passengers and crew
who died.
Its intended to be a memorial
site, andfocus ontheir actions, as
opposed to try and re-create an
historical event, saidKeithNew-
lin, park service superintendent
for Western Pennsylvania. They
werefightingover theskies for 35
minutes before they came to this
site. Their resting place is here.
Flight 93 was traveling from
Newark, N.J., to San Francisco
when it was hijacked with the
likely goal of crashing into the
White House or Capitol building,
the 9/11 Commission found.
According to family members
in cell phone contact with pas-
sengers, those aboard tried to
overpower the hijackers. But the
plane crashed into a field near ru-
ral Shanksville, about 65 miles
southeast of Pittsburgh. Newlin
said the Flight 93 Memorial uses
a fewbasic materials. Its intend-
ed to give people a healing expe-
rience, he said.

NANTICOKE Wearing a vin-
tage pink and gold beaded gown
with a giant stuffed flamingo on
her head, Anne Holmes stepped
out in style during the American
Cancer Societys Relay for Life at
Luzerne County Community
College Saturday.
Holmes, a professor in the
Health and Physical Education
Department at the college, said
she wore the zany hat in memory
of her friend Claire Mulrooney,
who died from cancer several
years ago.
She used to flock people,
Holmes said, referring to the
prank of planting flocks of plastic
pink flamingos in friends front
lawns. She was one of the fun-
niest people I knewand the dear-
est of friends, Holmes, 50, said.
Her fellow members of the
Walking Divas team sported
feather boas, flowery hats and tu-
tus. I call this my garden hat,
said fellow LCCC employee and
team member, Machelle Smith,
50, sporting a faded rose lace cap
and a black and fuchsia apron.
The Walking Divas were
among the nearly 200 LCCCstaff
members, students, and mem-
bers of the community who took
part in the 24-hour walk in the
parking lot of the Advanced
Technology and Educational
Conference Centers. Were
walking for family and friends
who have died from cancer and
those who are facing the chal-
lenge right now, said Holmes.
The walkers were divided into
seven groups, some with as
many as 30 members. The goal
is to have someone on the track
for 24 hours, said event organiz-
er Maureen Ryneski, a director
in the colleges Academic Affairs
department. To keep the walkers
energized, a number of fun activ-
ities were planned during the
laps. Local businesses also do-
nated pizza and prizes for the
walkers. As of Saturday morning,
the event raised nearly $8,000.
I feel great, said cancer survi-
vor John Murray, 54, of Dallas.
After he underwent surgery last
year to remove a tumor from his
liver, he was back at work a
month later. Murray, a father of
seven, is an occupational ther-
apist and operates Gem Ther-
apeutics in Dallas with his broth-
er Joseph. His wife, Dianne, 46,
said their family has been
blessed with help fromthe Amer-
ican Cancer Society, their church
and the Back Mountain commu-
nity. Upon receiving the diagnos-
is, Dianne said her husbands
doctors said the options were
limited, but to be hopeful.
Thats what we hung onto, she
said.
Fellow survivor Jane Rosentel,
58, of Forty Fort, was diagnosed
with uterine cancer five years
ago, and is in remission. I feel
absolutely wonderful, she said.
The last thing you want to hear
is a cancer diagnosis, its so
frightening, she said. Rosentel,
a corporate sales team leader for
Pride Mobility, commended her
oncologist, Dr. Bruce Saidman
and her gynecologist, Dr. Mi-
chael Ferraro. They got me on
the right course. She also turn-
edto the AmericanCancer Socie-
ty for help. Many times I was
scared and I called the hotline,
she said. They gave me the in-
formation I needed.
The first Relay for Life event
was held in 1985 in Tacoma,
Wash. Since then it has become
an international fundraising and
awareness event to save lives
from cancer.
Tom Leary, LCCC president,
said this is the first year the cam-
pus sponsored the event and he
hopes it will become an annual
tradition. It is about those who
have lost lives, survivors and
those who have yet to be diag-
nosed, he said. Its about care-
givers and their families. These
are the people we are walking for
today.
Cancer walk at LCCC a tribute to hope and fortitude
Survivors and people who just
want to help walk to raise
funds and buoy spirits.

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama and House Speak-
er John Boehner put partisanship
aside, at least on the golf course,
and teamed up to triumph on the
final hole Saturday in their long-
awaited links outing.
Thematchpittedthepolitical ri-
vals against Vice President Joe Bi-
den and Ohios Republican Gov.
John Kasich. The match was won
on the18th hole, with the winning
partners each pocketing a $2
prize.
The question now is whether a
partnership forged on the tees,
fairways and greens of a military
base course can yield success in
the policy arena. Obama and
Boehner find themselves on oppo-
site sides of everything from def-
icit reduction to the military cam-
paign in Libya.
Aides to both men played down
the chances of deals being struck
on the par-72 East Course at Joint
Base Andrews, but acknowledged
the outing could improve a rela-
tionship that is respectful, but
hardly close.
Tee time for the foursome was
9:30 a.m. at Obamas home course
at the base outside Washington.
The White House made a rare
exceptionandallowedthepress to
watchObamaandhisplayingpart-
ners finish the first hole, a par 5.
Biden was cool under pressure,
sinking a 15- to 20-foot putt.
Didyouall catchthat? Obama
shouted to reporters gathered
near the green.
The president, dressed in dark
pants, a white polo shirt and a
baseball cap, putted for par, tap-
pingina short shot after missinga
12-footer.
Kasich, a former congressman,
missed a 30-footer, then tapped in
for par. Boehner, one of the best
golfers in Congress, gave a hearty
Oh yeah! after draining a short
putt.
Obama, who is not in Boehners
links league, pattedthespeaker on
the back as they headed toward
the second hole, the president
driving their cart.
After wrapping up the match,
the foursome headed to the club-
house, wheretheyhadacolddrink
and talked with service members.
They also caught some action at
the U.S. Open, the professional
tournament going on in suburban
Maryland.
While Obama is an avid golfer,
he rarely plays with anyone out-
side of his small cadre of close
aides. His rounds runlong, usually
well over five hours, and those
close tothe president sayhe revels
inthechancetoget out of thespot-
light.
Obamas penchant for privacy
extends to his social life. He sur-
rounds himself with a tight inner
circle of family and friends, and
rarely socializes withother politic-
ians in Washington. In fact, Satur-
days golf outing was one of the
first times Obama and Boehner
have gotten together for anything
other than a policy meeting.
White House spokesman Jay
Carney said earlier in the week
that the outing was meant to be
anopportunityfor thespeaker and
the president, as well as the vice
president and Ohio governor, to
have a conversation, tosocialize in
a way that so rarely happens in
Washington.
The Obama-Boehner golf out-
ing coincided with White House
and congressional negotiations on
a long-term deficit reduction plan
and raising the governments bor-
rowing authority. Republicans
have insisted on significant cuts of
about $2trillionover10years or12
years before agreeing to increase
the current $14.3 debt ceiling,
which the government says it will
surpass Aug. 2.
Aides for both men tried to low-
er expectations that a deal on the
deficit or anything else, for that
matter wouldbereachedonthe
course. But it couldnt hurt.
It maymoveyoualittlebit clos-
er toward the kind of compromise
that we need to get the things
done that the Americanpeople ex-
pect us to get done, Carney said.
If it takes a few hours out on the
golf course to help that process, I
think its a worthwhile thing to
do.

store operators may want to sit
down for this one if they can
find a chair.
Nearly every national chain is
under legal attack in California
for failing to provide suitable
seating for cashiers and other
employees who are expected to
spend most of their work day on
their feet.
Enterprising trial attorneys by
the dozen are using an obscure
California labor law requiring re-
tailers such as Wal-Mart, Home
Depot and Target to have enough
seats on hand for their workers.
Superficially, the allegations
appear to be little more than a
nuisance.
But armed with two recent ap-
pellate decisions that allowwork-
ers and their lawyers to use Cali-
fornias novel private attorney
general provision, the retailers
are facing millions of dollars in
damages. A first violation calls
for as muchas $100 per employee
per pay period and double that
for subsequent violations.
Lawyers say those penalties
add up for big-box retailers that
employ hundreds of thousands of
Californians.
We are really in unchartered
waters, said Eric Steinert, an at-
torney who represents several of
the retailers. But theres no
doubt theres a wave of lawsuits
being filed. You are seeing some
attorneys moving into this area
who previously didnt pay atten-
tion to workplace issues.
Steinert said some of the first
lawsuits were filed in 2009 and
are based on an obscure provi-
sion of the labor code referring to
an order issued by the Industrial
Welfare Commission.
All working employees shall
be provided with suitable seats
when the nature of the work rea-
sonably permits the use of seats,
the provision states. When em-
ployees are not engaged in the
duties of their employment and
the nature of the work requires
standing, an adequate number of
suitable seats shall be placed in
reasonable proximity to the work
area and the employees shall be
permitted to use such seats when
it does not interfere with the per-
formance of their duties.
The first of the two key appel-
late decisions turningthat phrase
into lawwas issued in November.
The stampede to the courthouse
beganshortlyafterward. Lawyers
predict that more than 100 such
lawsuits have been filed through-
out the state.
The first appellate ruling over-
turned a lower courts decision
tossing out Eugenia Brights law-
suit against 99Cents OnlyStores.
National retail stores in California hit with wave of lawsuits over seats for employees
Trial attorneys use obscure
labor law that sees retailers
facing millions in damages.

So Barletta is one of the ones
were excited about when it
comes to new lawmakers taking
the field for the congressional
baseball game, he said.
GOP vs. Democrats
Along with partisan politics
and arguing over the budget and
issues such as immigration,
health care and climate change, a
consuming passion on Capitol
Hill is the annual congressional
baseball game pitting a team of
Republican lawmakers against a
squad of Democratic lawmakers.
The main sponsor is Roll Call,
a Capitol Hill newspaper, and a
raft of corporations and trade as-
sociations also contribute money
and equipment for a game that
last year raised $150,000 for char-
ity andthis year couldapproacha
$200,000 haul for the Washing-
ton Literacy Council and D.C.
Boys and Girls Clubs.
This years game is the 50than-
niversary of the modern version
of the congressional baseball
game though the contest dates
backto1909 andwill be heldJu-
ly 14 at Nationals Park, the home
to Washingtons Major League
Baseball team.
But while lawmakers are proud
of raising money for charity, they
dont leave their competitive in-
stincts at the ballot box or on the
House floor when they take the
field.
Republicans point out that
they have won a majority of the
games over timebut Democrats
crow that they have won two in a
rowand that a win this year gains
themthe Roll Call Trophy, which
goes tothewinningteaminarun-
ning best-of-five game series, and
is quickly paraded around the
House floor following a series-
winning game.
Getting in lineup
Barletta notes that though he
was an outfielder in his youth at
Hazleton High School and Lu-
zerne County Community Col-
lege, hes happy to take the
mound and willing to limp
through 7 a.m. practices if thats
what it takes to make the starting
lineup on a teamwith a 45-player
roster.
Making the starting lineup
could be tougher than getting to
Congress, Barletta quipped
while he stretched his aching
muscles before Wednesdays
practice. Its no surprise that
these guys are so competitive be-
cause they didnt get here by not
being competitive. Thats why I
am going to play hurt. I have my
legall wrappedup. I dont want to
lose my position. There are too
many competitive guys here
waiting for me to go down.
Barletta acknowledges a cer-
tain amount of teasing out on the
House floor about expectations
for what he can contribute to the
GOP teams effort.
The only problemwith that is
you cant bring your scrapbook
up to home plate with you, Bar-
letta said. That was a long time
ago and I can see some of my
skills have deteriorated over the
years. Eyes arent as good, backs
sore, lot of aches and pains the
next day. I have taken more Aleve
since we startedbaseball practice
than I have in years. The problem
here is my mind is still 21, but my
body is 55.
Thinking about his days as a
baseball player, Barletta admits
to some regrets. He poured him-
self intothetryout inTampa, Fla.,
with the Cincinnati Reds in Feb-
ruary 1977, but the Reds major
league team and entire farm sys-
tem were chock-full of outfiel-
ders, andthe Reds didnt signany
of the 65 players at that tryout,
Barletta recalls.
Lous glory days
The Reds organization, noting
his speed, encouraged him to at-
tend walk-on tryouts with what
were then MLB expansion teams
inSeattle andToronto, but, after
the tryout I was disappointedand
I just went home, Barletta said,
adding that he was a newlywed
and decided it was time to go to
work.
I really put everything into
this tryout, Barletta said. You
know, you think you are good un-
til you see kids from all around
the country.
After practice Wednesday, still
walking gingerly despite all his
stretching, Barletta seemedsatis-
fied yet realistic about getting
back out on the field for the con-
gressional baseball game.
Laughing, he quoted from a
popular Toby Keith country
song: I aint as good as I once
was, but Im as good once as I ev-
er was.

rated over the years. Eyes arent as

WILKES-BARRE A Ha-
zleton man pleaded guilty
Thursday to charges relating
to his role in robbing a Fam-
ily Dollar store at gunpoint in
June 2010.
Nathaniel Garcia, 25, of
West Maple Street, entered
the plea to charges of robbery
and criminal trespass before
Luzerne County Judge David
Lupas. Garcia will be sen-
tenced on Aug. 9.
According to court papers,
on June 16, Hazleton police
were dispatched to the Family
Dollar store on West Broad
Street for a reported robbery.
The clerks said one man
brandished a silver handgun
and pointed it at the clerks
demanding money, while the
other asked for money to be
handed over and removed
money from a cash drawer.
Police said the men, Jesus
Torres, 23, also of Hazleton,
and Garcia, then fled by un-
locking the front door. Torres
said Garcia used the handgun
to demand money and that
he, Torres, removed the mon-
ey from the cash register
totaling just over $1,200.
Torres has previously en-
tered a plea to similar charg-
es and is tentatively sched-
uled to be sentenced on June
20.

P
rashant Shitut, president of Impressions Media, the company that owns The Times
Leader and several other multimedia businesses in Northeastern Pennsylvania, pre-
sented framed copies of pages of the paper to Sukanya Roy of South Abington Township.
Roy was the 2009, 2010 and 2011 winner of The Times Leader/Scripps NEPA Regional
Spelling Bee and the 2011 winner of the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Her gift - a framed
copy of the news coverage she earned with her national victory - was presented at PNC

Education Night. Roy also threw out the ceremonial first pitch prior to the game.
member Olga Conart. This
anniversary signifies that our
faith has brought us through.
Its great to see 100 years cele-
brated with the memory of our
parents and grandparents still
alive in our hearts.
The recent closing of St.
Hedwigs Roman Catholic
Church in Edwardsville
brought the centennial celebra-
tion into focus for event co-
chair Thomas Podolack.
Most of the churches on
Zerby Ave are over 100 years
old, said Podolack. However
most people arent going to
church anymore. Membership
is down everywhere.
Following the liturgy, a ban-
quet was held at Newberry Es-
tates in Dallas for the more
than 200 invited guests and vis-
iting clergy.
The ancestors who founded
this church were a hearty peo-
ple and their faith and determi-
nation kept this parish togeth-
er, said Phyllis Podalack of
Mountain Top. Having the
bishop here is the icing on the
cake. It honors their memory.

Bishop Tikhon blesses the congregation of St. John The Baptist
Russian Orthodox Church at its centennial celebration Mass.
Additional spots will be availa-
ble alongthe oldCoal Street from
the boulevard to North Hancock
near Walters Hardware Store,
said James May, spokesman for
the state Department of Trans-
portations District 4-0 office in
Dunmore.
The new design includes four
pull-off areas for buses, he said.
In the new area for Coal
Street, there will not be parking
available because in order to do
so, we would have had to take
more land fromeither the park or
from the residents, and we felt
that would not be appropriate,
said May.
More than$1millionwas spent
onacquisitions tomakethestreet
wider, said Frati.
May said residents were noti-
fied of the project details long be-
fore construction began.
I know there were some no-
tices in local papers and I spoke
with a representative from Pen-
noni Associates (engineeringand
design consultants) who said
that they have notified all resi-
dents andmet withmany of them
and discussed the project, May
said. Also, he said that the city
has alsomet withmanyof the res-
idents.
Grasavage and his neighbors
said they were not notified.
Ive never seen anything. We
never got anything in the mail,
saidJones, wholives next door to
Grasavage.
Jones, 91, who still drives, has
to park on a side street and walk
to his house.
He suggestedthe city make the
street one way and conduct a
study to determine which direc-
tion it should flow.
Still, he shared his neighbors
frustration with the ongoing con-
struction and the parking ban.
I understand you cant stop
progress, saidJones. This was a
poor way to plan it.

WEAVERTOWNFor nearly
120 years, Lebanon bologna has
been made at a small plant in a ti-
ny village just north of Lebanon.
Located along Weavertown
Road in North Lebanon Town-
ship, theplant wasoriginallybuilt
in1893byDaniel Weaver, whobe-
gan making Weavers Lebanon
Bologna in 1885. Through the
years, the plant has been expand-
ed several times, and new, mod-
ern equipment has been added.
Today, the plant alsomakes the
Kutztown brand of bologna
Kutztowns plant was destroyed
byfire in2000andbothbrands
are owned by Godshalls Quality
Meats of Telford, Montgomery
County.
But while the equipment and
the ownership may have changed
many times in the last 118 years,
the bologna recipes are the same
as they were when both Weavers
andKutztownwerefounded, said
Jerry Landuyt, director of mar-
ketingat the Weavertownfacility.
Theyre both the original reci-
pes, said Landuyt, who owned
the KutztownBologna Co. before
its disastrous fire in 2000.
Lebanon bologna, for those un-
familiar, is atypeof sausagemade
of beef and spices that gets its
unique flavor from smoking. It is
believedtohavebeeninventedby
Pennsylvania German settlers in
the1700s.
It began being commercially
produced in the late 1800s, and it
has been a staple in many homes
ever since.
Weavers bills itself as the ol-
dest commercial manufacturer of
Lebanon bologna. However, Lan-
duyt said, the process by which
the bologna is made has changed
dramatically through the years.
Bologna is still wood-
smoked, he said. That really
hasnt changed. But as far as mak-
ing it, packaging it, how fast we
can do it, we can certainly make
more inone day thanthey usedto
make in probably two weeks.
We usedtohave one stuffer do
all thework, andnowwehavelike
fourof themrunningall thetime,
he added.
When Daniel Weaver first
opened the plant in 1893, there
were about 15 employees. Today,
there are about 70 full-timers.
In addition to bologna, the
plant also makes several other
products, including beef sticks,
bacon, ham, turkey jerky andpep-
peroni sticks.
Beef sticks have become a big
thing since about the early 80s,
Landuyt said. They got started
inthebeef stickbusiness, andthat
has grownverybigthroughyears,
and it continues to grow.
While many of Weavers prod-
uctsaresoldnationwide, Landuyt
said, most bologna is sold within
200 miles of Lebanon. The Weav-
er brand is sold more in the Phila-
delphia area, while the Kutztown
brand is more popular in central
Pennsylvania.
Landuyt said he might have
had something to do with Kutz-
towns popularity in the Lebanon
Valley than Weavers when the
two brands were competitors.
When I had Kutztown, of
course, we got all the business we
could, he said.
Business is still good, Landuyt
said, noting that the plant was
mostly unaffected by the recent
economic downturn.
It would be fair to say that ev-
erything was affected by it; how-
ever, it would also be fair to say
that weve been fortunate, he
said. We are on the good side of
it. Our business has gone up dra-
matically, 20-plus percent from
last year to this year.
Landuyt theorized that one of
the main reasons business is up
despite the economic downturn
is because of the high quality of
the products.
The Godshall family is com-
mitted to making a very high-
quality product, and if you buy
something and you like, youre
probablygoingtobuyit again,he
said.

What I Learned Most from my
Stepfather
It has been said that one of the best
teachers in life is EXPERIENCE and
that is how I learned from my stepfa-
ther. Let me tell you why I say this:
At the age of 47, my dad married a
widow (my mother) with fve children.
(My biological father had passed
away when I (the youngest) was four
and one-half years old.)
Dad and my mother were only
married 14 months when she passed
away; in addition to his grief, he was
faced with a decision about what
would happen to these children, rang-
ing in age from eight to sixteen. Oh,
there were relatives who were willing
to take one or two, but certainly not
all fve!
Knowing in his heart that my mom
would want us all kept together,
he decided to do just that. At the
age of 48, with no previous parent-
ing experience and at a time when
most parents are looking forward to
their children being on their own, he
legally adopted these fve orphans
and raised us as a single parent on a
coal-miners paycheck.
He gave us all that he had to offer,
emotionally and fnancially. Without
this mans selfessness, I am sure we
would not have had the opportunity
of education beyond high school. We
may not have even known each other
because we probably would have
become separated. More importantly,
we would not have experienced the
kind of love that would take on the
task of raising three teenagers, an
11-year-old and an eight-year-old.
When we grew up and made our
mistakes, as all young people do,
he never said I told you so. He just
always opened up his home and his
heart to us, just as he did when we
were children.
Years down the road, Dad also be-
came Grandpa to our 12 children!
What did I learn most from my step-
father?
I learned, by example, what un-
conditional, real love is.
I learned, by example, the meaning
of total unselfshness.
And I learned, by example, that no
task is too large if you have the will
to accomplish it.

a sophomore at Dallas Senior High
School and continue to shoot for the
stars and achieve all of my hopes and
dreams.

What I Learned Most from my
Parents
What I learned most in my life I
learned from my mom, but I learned
life lessons from my dad as well.
Elizabeth was her given name, but
she loathed it. She simply liked to
be called Betty. She came from a
violent, loveless home where she was
never wanted. Her parents would
fght with weapons using her as the
pawn in the middle. She was told on
a regular basis that she was never
wanted and should have died before
she was born. At a very young age
she was thrown into a lake and told to
sink or swim at which time she sank
and almost drown. Her aunts gave her
a strong Catholic background from
which she embraced a tremendous
faith and helped her gain some self
worth. One would think coming from
such a home would have made her a
very bitter, heartless individual; how-
ever, she was anything but.
She married my dad at the age of 19.
I come from a family of fve children
of which I am the youngest. My dad
worked away fve days a week to sup-
port his family. He, too, was instru-
mental in shaping my character. He
was a patriotic man with a very strong
work ethic. On the softer side of him
was his sense of humor, his infectious
laugh and his charisma. I believe its
from him that I get my stubbornness,
my work ethic and my humor.
My mom was the disciplinarian, the
chef, but, most of all, the caregiver.
Her voice was soft, calming and
reassuring, her touch as gentle as a
feather lightly brushing your skin and
a laugh that was so contagious you
couldnt help but laugh as well. She
was not a woman to let you know if
she was sick and always reminded
you that no matter how bad things
seemed at that time tomorrow would
somehow be better.
In late 1997 early 1998, my mom was
diagnosed with pancreatic cancer.
She never let it slow her down; until,
she fnally she went to sleep in Gods
arms on January 18, 2001. I couldnt
imagine how I was going to make it
through each day without my best
friend, my hero, my mom. In 2004,
I was diagnosed with the onset of
cervical cancer. Despite this news, I
didnt let it beat me because of the
example my mom had set for me
throughout my life.
I fnally realized what I had learned
from this amazing woman. She taught
me that patience really was a virtue,
that no matter how bad things
The things that my parents taught
me should be the ideals of all human
beings today. The tales of my brilliant,
powerful ancestors inspire me, and
the ways they achieved their great-
ness inspire me even more. The sheer
brilliance of all of these life lessons
my parents have taught me are so
intriguing that if everyone would fol-
low these lessons, the world would be
a wonderful, admirable place. It would
truly be Heaven on Earth.

What I Learned Most
My name is Amber Roberts and un-
like every other childs normal child-
hood growing up, mine was nothing
even close to normal. I have had the
craziest journeys to get to the place
where I am today and I owe all of the
thanks to my adoptive mother Nancy
Roberts.
In 2003, I was adopted by my single
foster mom Nancy. I had been with
her since I was fve and half years old
and she adopted me when I was nine.
My story may seem like any other
story you would hear, but mine has
been truly a wonderful miracle of a
child and a regular womans love and
passion to take in, love, and treat a
complete stranger as her own child.
I had been in and out of foster homes
pretty much all of my childhood not
trusting a single person and not
knowing what to call home. The last
foster family I was with took me to
meet Nancy, who would become
my mother for good. The day is still
so clear in my head, almost as if it
happened yesterday, as if she was
sent by god in the form of an angel
to rescue me. It was a true miracle,
and with the hold of a stuffed animal
she got me in one arm, and her hand
in my hand we set off to start a new
beginning. When I frst came to Nancy
I couldnt even tell the difference
between love or hate, or food from
water.
The journey of love from Nancy and
the trust she built with me had fnally
shown me that love and trust does
exist after all. The nights I would wake
up screaming and crying in fear from
horrifc nightmares and her comfort
was her love for me. The nights I was
scared to sleep in my own room and
she would comfort me was her love
for me. Teaching me right from wrong
was her teaching me what love is all
about. Without my mom as my role
model, I still wouldnt have a clue
what love is. She has taught me all of
things I need to know in life and as a
single parent with no help.
Today Nancy still continues to show
and teach me new things about life
and the person I am today, I owe it all
to her and all the love she as shown
me. My mom is truly an amazing

My Parents and Their Inuence
on My Destiny
During my childhood, the two beings
who most greatly guided me, who
shaped my future, were my parents.
My parents shaped my interests, my
thought pattern; my parents shaped
my destiny. My parents taught me so
much in the 12 years of my natural-
born life that is diffcult for me to
recall every single life lesson my par-
ents taught me. But, there are some
guidelines that are so important to my
everyday life, that it would be hard to
forget. In fact, some of these lessons
are impossible to forget.
Many of the lessons my parents
taught me are rooted from my ances-
tors. One of my ancestors was to
some extent an important fgure
in the struggle for Indias freedom
from the British Empire. This ancestor
actually went to jail with the Father
of India, Mahatma Gandhi. My father
uses this mans story as an example
of two of his chief ideals. My father
tells me to always stand up for what
I believe in. He also says to not be
frightened by anyone or anything
because if I didnt do anything wrong
then there would be nothing to be
frightened of.
My other ancestor was dismissed
from his fathers house at age 15
because he asked for money. After
that, my ancestor opened a business
and eventually became so fnan-
cially well-to-do that he would donate
astronomical sums of money, remem-
bering the less fortunate. My father
uses this story to emphasize another
life lesson; that lesson being to never
be dependent upon anyone else.
Because if the person I depend upon
ever becomes unreliable, I can carry
on the work myself; he taught me to
be independent. He also uses this to
remind me that nothing is impossible.
My deceased grandfather probably
made one of the largest impacts on
my personality today. My grandfather
was the top-most lawyer and fgure in
his hometown. He was the best of the
best. What my father tells me about
him is that he would always strive to
be number one. This lesson is what
my life today is made of; always strive
to be number one.
Finally, one of the last things my
parents taught me should be taught
to every politician in this area. With
all the local corruption, I used to be
believe that is was impossible to
succeed without corruption. I realize
today that I was wrong. My father has
drilled into me one phrase that will
stay with me forever, Never cheat,
but never be cheated. This is achiev-
ing the best of both worlds.

What I Learned From My Great-
Grandmother
My great-grandmother Sophie is
a true inspiration to me. She is a
90-year-old sweetheart who has
sacrifced in order to provide for her
family since she was 12 years old.
She has taught me many valuable life
lessons through her unselfsh living,
and also by the upbringing of my
grandmother and my mother. One
of the most valuable lessons I have
leaned from her is that less is more.
I learned how my great-grandmother
had to quit school at age 12 because
her mom passed away during child
birth. Her dad needed her to help take
care of her six brothers. She sacri-
fced her education to raise her family.
She grew up with very little, but was
very content with what she had. Each
time I hear her stories, I realize it is
not what you have that is important,
but rather what you do with what you
have that really counts.
A great example of how less is more
was when my great- grandmother had
to walk to and from her job because
she could not afford an automobile.
The daily walk was about six miles
each way. I could never imagine walk-
ing to school every day. This is why I
think she is so strong and still in good
shape today.
I see that my great-grandmother,
grandmother, and my mother grew
up without many luxuries. They are
all strong, self- suffcient women. I
want to grow up to be just like them.
I learned from my great-grandmother
especially, that the less you have, the
more you grow. You do not need all
the material possessions to be happy.
Your happiness comes from within
and how you choose to live your daily
life. My great-grandmother has shared
so many family stories with me about
how much fun our family has had just
spending time together. We are a very
close family with many happy memo-
ries. Some of our best times have
been just being together and repeat-
ing family stories.
My great-grandmother is the center
of our family. It is because of her
strength and her determination that
I am proud and fortunate to call her
my great-grandmother. I feel that my
great-grandmother taught me a very
valuable lesson that I will practice for
the rest of my life. Although it is not
always easy to follow, I do believe the
less you have the better person you
turn out to be. I love her so much, and
I hope I will make her as proud of me
as I am of her!

ciation and the Family Crisis Cen-
ter, Helping Hands, and Faith-in-Ac-
tion programs. For 48 years as a pro-
fessed friar, Brother Luke was com-
pletely devoted to his vocation as a
religious brother in the Franciscan
community, serving the Lord and
his brothers and sisters with kind-
ness, patience, and understanding.
Whether performing kitchen duties
for friars and students of Saint Fran-
cis University, providing library ser-
vices for students of Saint Francis
Seminary, managing budgets as a
treasurer, offering hospitality to
friars at the Cape May house, or en-
gaged in other types of ministry,
Brother accepted all assignments
with the humble and joyful spirit of
Saint Francis of Assisi.
He was a gentleman of good hu-
mor and common sense and when
called to educational and pastoral
leadership in the Province, he was a
wise mentor for students of all ages
and a faithful friend to all he met.
His personal motto was Teach
Christ - Witness Christ. As his
health deteriorated in recent
months, he accepted his illness pa-
tiently as a sign of Gods will and
was strengthened by visits fromthe
parishioners of Assumption
Church, fellow friars, and other
friends.
Today, friends of Brother Luke
will be received at Assumption
ChurchinKeyser from2to8p.m., at
which time a Wake Service will be
celebrated. A Memorial Mass will
be celebrated at the Church at 10
a.m. Monday, with Father Ivan Le-
bar, T.O.R., as principal celebrant.
In Loretto, friends will be received
at the Chapel of Saint Francis Friary
from 4 to 7 p.m. Monday, with the
Vigil Serviceat 7p.m. Mass of Chris-
tian Burial will be concelebrated at
11 a.m. Tuesday, also at the Chapel
of Saint Francis Friary, withtheVery
Rev. Christian R. Oravec, T.O.R.,
Minister Provincial of the Sacred
Heart Province, as principal cele-
brant. Following the Mass, burial
rites will be conducted at the Fran-
ciscan Friars Cemetery on the cam-
pus of Saint Francis University, Lo-
retto.

bons Funeral Home, 301ChurchSt.,

R.D. Clements Dentistry in Dallas is
pleased to welcome Dr. Duane R. Sprau
as the new associate to their staff.
When Duane Sprau was 5 years old
living on Church Street in Dallas, his
family switched dentists and became
patients of Dr. Bob Clements.
He remembers that after that switch,
his family thought going to the dentist
was actually fun.
A soccer player for Dallas High School with a
proclivity for the sciences , Duane went off to
Penn State Main Campus. But instead of studying
the sciences, he went on to study finance.
As it turned out, the sciences were really his love.
After receiving a B.S in Finance, he re-enrolled at
Penn State to fulfill science credits needed for
dental school. In May of 2010, Duane obtained his
Doctorate in Dental Medicine at the Temple
University Kornberg School of Dentistry.
And now hes back. Back to his home,
The Back Mountain, and back practicing where
going to the dentist is actually fun.
Dr. Sprau will be accepting new patients on July 1.

the combined budgets of the 11
districts: $510.8 million this year.
Freezing Act 93 salaries also
doesnt put much of a dent in the
massive budget shortfalls caused
by Gov. Tom Corbetts proposed
budget cuts. The11coun-
ty districts will collec-
tively lose about $25 mil-
lion compared to last
years state funding if
Corbetts budget is enact-
ed.
Still, districts have
looked to Act 93 freezes
for a simple reason: They
are far easier tonegotiate
and implement than
freezes to other salaries.
While Act 93 employees
have contracts, they have
no union negotiating
those contracts. As
Crestwood School Board
member Gene Mancini
noted, the law requires
the board and administrators to
meet and discuss, but in the
endtheboardcanimposeanoffer
and the administrators lack the
clout of a large union to change
the proposal.
In announcing his cuts, Cor-
bett suggested teacher unions
agree to a pay freeze, but that is
up to individual unions, and local
unions have generally balked at
that idea. Where concessions
were made, raises were curbed
but not frozen.
Dallas, for example, negotiated
anewcontract that boasts norais-
es for most teachers, but theres a
catch. Teacher contracts provide
pay raises for every year of ser-
vice up to a set number of years
(steps), and for earning a speci-
fied number of college credits be-
yond a bachelors degree (co-
lumn). When contract negotia-
tors talk about raises,
they are referring to in-
creasing the amount
paid at every step and
column. In Dallas, the
amounts for each step
and column remain the
same. Teachers paywill
continue to rise each
year; they just wont see
it increase by more than
it did under the old con-
tract.
Dallas is negotiating
a new Act 93 contract
that covers eight em-
ployees paidatotal of al-
most $570,000this year.
Their contract expired
last summer, so they
have technically worked without
a pay hike this school year.
HazletonArea teachers, incon-
trast, did reopen their current
contract and agreed to a type of
pay cut for the next two years by
deferring not eliminating rais-
es. Teachers will get half the
promised3.65percent raiseat the
start of the year, but receive the
full raise by the end of the year.
With about 680 teachers and a
total base payroll topping $40
million, that move is expected to
save about $750,000 in 2011-12.
By comparison, Hazleton Area
has 30 Act 93 employees paid
$2.7 million this year who are
subject toa two-year wage freeze.
The Act 93 contract expires this
summer so there is no specific
amount beingsaved, but if youas-
sume they would have received a
2 percent raise, the freeze would
only save about $55,000.
Crestwood, on the other hand,
went beyond a pay freeze when
the board negotiated a new Act
93 contract this year. The four-
year deal freezes wages for two
years, then ties raises to the state
Act 1 index (not to exceed a
maximumamount). The Act 1in-
dex is an annual limit on how
much a district can raise taxes
without voter approval or state
exemptions. The limit varies
from year to year and district to
district, but is expectedtobeat or
below1 percent next year.
Crestwoods new contract also
requires administrators to pay an
increasing percentage of their
health insurance premiums: 3
percent next year, rising to 5, 7
and 10 percent each succeeding
year. Boardmember Mancini also
noted the superintendent not
covered by the Act 93 contract
has agreed to pay 15 percent of
the premium.
In Pittston Area, where inclu-
sionof thesuperintendent andse-
curity staff boosts the number of
Act 93 employees higher than
most other districts, the current
contract calls for raises totaling
almost $50,000. Superintendent
George Cosgrove said a freeze is
being discussed. The board plans
to vote on a final budget June 27.
Greater Nanticoke Area, onthe
other hand, is making no effort to
freeze Act 93 salaries, Superin-
tendent Tony Perrone said. He
notedthoseemployees tookapay
freeze last year, and that the con-
tractedincreases for next year are
small just under $14,000 total.
One reason for the low total is
that Perrone, who is covered by
the Act 93 contract, has worked
without pay since his retirement
in 2003, a fact he prefers to down-
play.
Wilkes-BarreAreahasthemost
Act 93 employees of all 11 dis-
tricts 41, with total wages this
year at $3.4 million. The district
has been criticized for years for
being administrator-heavy, but
Superintendent Jeff Namey
who has a contract separate from
Act 93 employees counters that
he eliminated 17 positions in the
past 15 years.
Namey also noted the district
has two tiers of Act 93 employ-
ees. Tier I covers top administra-
tors such as principals and assist-
ant principals, who have salaries
ranging from about $90,000 to
$100,000. Another 20 people are
inTier II, whichincludes deans of
students and program coordina-
tors, most them earning salaries
comparable to teachers, ranging
form $55,000 to $80,000.
The district deliberately decid-
ed to move more people under
Act 93 in recent years who had
previously had separate con-
tracts. Namey also noted the dis-
trict expects to eliminate two or
threeAct 93positions this year by
not filling slots following the re-
tirement of the current employ-
ees.
Wilkes-Barre Area is also the
only local district with three high
schools rather than one, which
multiplies the number of admin-
istrators dramatically. The dis-
trict is studying the possibility of
closing at least one of those
schools in a few years.
The districts Act 93 contract
expired this year and Namey said
employees have agreed to a wage
freeze. Teachers rejecteda freeze,
but have made multiple propos-
als for saving money, including
floating the idea of switching to a
four-day school week with longer
hours per day, saving on heating,
lightingandtransportationcosts.

ROMETheVaticansaidSat-
urday it is working to give bish-
ops information on the best ways
tocombat clergysexabuse, team-
ing up with the Jesuit university
in Rome to host a major symposi-
umon abuse and launch an Inter-
net learning center for follow-up
guidance.
The symposiumnext February
will draw experts in psychiatry,
church law, sociology and child
protection programs to the Pon-
tifical Gregorian University for
three days of meetings and work-
shops with 200 bishops and reli-
gious superiors.
The meetings are designed in
part to help bishops draft guide-
lines to combat abuse that must
be submitted to the Holy See by
next year for review.
The Gregorian will also launch
a multi-lingual Internet learning
center to provide church leaders
with the latest in ongoing re-
search on how to prevent abuse,
train priests properly, protect
children and help victims heal.
Private donors have pledged
funds to maintain the database
for an initial three years, officials
said.
Yet many victims groups have
held out little hope for much
change given that bishops them-
selves have been blamed for
much of the scandal, since it was
they who covered up the crimes
and moved molesters around
from parish to parish to abuse
again rather than reporting them
to police.
No bishop has ever been disci-
plined for failing to stop an abus-
er. Victims advocates argue that
without any enforcement mecha-
nism requiring bishops to com-
ply with church law or their own
guidelines, children will remain
at risk.
The Vaticans sex crimes prose-
cutor Monsignor Charles Sciclu-
na acknowledged Saturday that
bishops come in all shapes and

rhythm of a drummer, or at
least thats the idea.
Being in a kayak, youre
alone, or being in a canoe, thats
one thing, said Susan Turcma-
novich, of Scranton, a member
of Pennsylvania American Wa-
ters dragon boat team, but to
be in there with 21 people try-
ing to stay together is a whole
different thing.
Today, six teams from area
businesses, including The
Times Leader, and teams from
the city of Wilkes-Barre and Lu-
zerne County will race the drag-
on boats.
Each team will race three
times from the Market Street
Bridge to the Veterans Memo-
rial Bridge, with prizes awarded
for the fastest overall time, best-
dressed drummer and best
team spirit.
The races will take place
from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. today,
but RiverFest organizers said
thats just a taste of things to
come.
In September 2012, the River-
front Parks Committee and Riv-
er Common hope to host a sep-
arate dragon boat festival, com-
plete with a dragon-boat regat-
ta.
Pittsburgh has a dragon boat
festival, Philadelphia has a drag-
on boat festival, and now
Wilkes-Barre will have a dragon
boat festival too, said John Ma-
day, a member of the Riverfront
Parks Committee Board of Di-
rectors and a RiverFest coordi-
nator.
Maday said he brought the
dragon boats to RiverFest this
year as a preview, to create in-
terest among local businesses in
the hopes of gaining sponsor-
ships for the event next year.
He said things Saturday were
going as smoothly as they could
for a first time, and even the
practice runs drew plenty of
spectators, with a small crowd
watching the action from Nes-
bitt Park.
This is the kind of stuff we
need down here, said Dennis
Reading, of Laflin, as he
watched his daughter paddle
with the Guard Insurance team.
Youve got to get people in-
terested in the area, and this
kind of thing is great for that.
If dragon-boating is about
teamwork, the area, it seems,
has started paddling together.

A dragon boat passes the Luzerne County Courthouse as it plies the Susquehanna River during
RiverFest on Saturday. Races of the colorful craft are scheduled for today.
Colorful dragon boats like this one will race between the Market
Street and Veterans Memorial bridges today.
Fest.
Where else are you going to go
where you could learn something
about the river, you could see Ge-
orge Wesley and Eddie Day and
the Star Fires, and you could see
the mayor of Wilkes-Barre in a
dragon boat out on the river.
Mayor ThomasLeightonwasin
a dragonboat Saturday, preparing
for todays races with the City of
Wilkes-Barre team. The mayor
said he planned not only to rowin
the race today, but to start the day
by participating in the YMCAand
Jewish Community Centers
Duathlon, which starts at 7:30
a.m. today on Public Square.
Its a great event not only for
the city but for the valley as well,
the mayor said after returning
ashore Saturday afternoon. Last
year I didthe kayakingfromHard-
ing to Wilkes-Barre everyone
should do that at least once and
this year its a newadventure.
As it has expanded, RiverFest
has also broadened its appeal
throughout the region.
Michael Markert, of Worcester,
Montgomery County, grew up in
Harding, and returned to his
hometown Saturday to take a
four-hour kayaksojourntoWilkes-
Barre with his girlfriend Kristen
Saponaro one of three kayak
trips sponsored by
RiverFest.
It was just a great
event tocomebackto
the valley for, Mark-
ert said.
It was a lot of fun,
Saponaro, of Worces-
ter, added. It was re-
ally misty earlier this
morning, and then it
got clearer. It was ve-
ry beautiful and tranquil.
RiverFest and the River Com-
mons Thursday night concert se-
ries nowdraws bigger namemusi-
cians as well, River Common Di-
rector of Programming and Ou-
treach Karl Borton said.
This years event featured art-
ists like MiZ and K8, who have
performed at nationally known
music festivals, Borton said.
Eddie Day and the Star Fires,
fronted by state Rep. Eddie Day
Pashinski, took the stage at the
River Common to headline the
evening musical acts.
As RiverFest has grown larger,
the event has not been without
controversy. This year, natural gas
drilling companies Chesapeake
Energy and Williams Energy
joined the events more than 40
corporatesponsors, promptinglo-
cal opponents of drilling for gas in
the Marcellus Shale tostage a pro-
test on the Pierce Street Bridge.
Organized by Don Williams, a
Wilkes-Barre native who now
their vessel. It takes a little bit of
extra coordination to make sure it
all fits.
Eighteenyears later, awholelot
more people showed up for River-
Fest thousands of them, infact
but Maday, amember of theRiver-
front Parks Committee Board of
Directors and a RiverFest Coordi-
nator, said Saturday that the fes-
tival has remained true to its
roots.
The sole purpose of RiverFest
is environmental education and
environmental celebration and
thats the only purpose of it, he
said. Toteachpeople, youhaveto
bringthemtoyourclassroom, and
this is our classroom.
As RiverFest has grown larger,
sotoohas its footprint, as it has at-
tracted vendors from outside the
city and added activities in
Wilkes-Barres downtown.
Saturdays activities included a
tour of Wilkes Universitys Learn-
ing Garden and a childrens pet-
ting zoo by The Lands at Hillside
Farms.
Hillside Farms Director of De-
velopment and
Marketing Su-
zanne Kelly said
the group brought
its animals, includ-
ing a 5-day-old bull
calf, to the event
from the Dallas
teaching farm be-
cause RiverFests
objectives matched
those of Hillside.
I thinkit shows peoplethat the
simple things can be the most
beautiful, Kelly said. And its
working; as soon as we brought
the animals down the people just
started to gather. What were real-
ly trying to do is reconcile a dis-
connect between people and na-
ture and that just fit so well at an
event like this.
Other childrens activities at
Riverfest included pony rides, a
moon bounce, fish printmaking,
tree climbing and field games.
Across Nesbitt Park, Wilkes-
Barre General Hospital hosted a
health fair, showcasing the hospi-
tals services and community pro-
grams.
Wilkes-Barre General Hospital
is a community fixture, and has
beenfor over130years, andweare
proud to support Wilkes-Barre,
the river and the community we
serve, said JimMcGuire, spokes-
man for the hospital.
There was, as Maday put it,
somethingfor everybodyat River-
lives in Montgomery County, the
protest drew supporters from Lu-
zerne Countys Gas Drilling
Awareness Coalition, Concerned
Harding Area Residents and the
Luzerne County Green Party.
The Susquehanna River has
been named one of the most en-
dangered rivers in the country
specifically because of gas drill-
ing, so we want to make people
aware of the contradiction, Gas
Drilling Awareness Coalition
President TomJiunta said.
About 20 held signs on the
bridge at about 2 p.m., though
protesters said as many as 50 had
attended throughout the day.
Williams noted that the activ-
ists were not protesting River-
Fest, but the contributions its or-
ganizers took.
Maday said it is the protesters
right to protest, and that he sup-
ports their right to make their
voices heard.

Fest on Saturday.

THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, JUNE 19, 2011
E
ric McCabe is the branch manager of the McCabe Mortgage Group in Kingston.
McCabe, 39, is a graduate of Lake-Lehman High School and Kings College,
where he received a bachelors degree in finance. He is also a graduate of Lead-
ership Wilkes-Barre. He and his wife, Ann, have six children: Andrew, 19, Abbey, 12,
James, 8, Katherine, 5, Maggie, 4, and Will, 3. They live in Shavertown.
With a degree in finance, you had
many options. Why a career in home
finance? I got a lot of direction
from my father, who is a local real
estate professional. I was always a
numbers guy, which is why I chose
finance as a profession. He was
always a real estate guy, and I really
looked to him a lot for guidance
upon my graduation. At his encour-
agement, I actually sold real estate
during college. I got my real estate
license when I was 18 and had
worked in the field for a few years,
and to me it just seemed like a
perfect marriage.
What is it about the work
that you enjoy most? Its the
people. We do all types of loans
for all types of people, but the
thing I get the most satisfaction
from, day to day, is working
with first-time home buyers.
They come to you and theyre
nervous, theyre apprehensive
and theyre confused. In a lot of
ways, we kind of feel like a
matchmaker and a problem
solver. I really enjoy taking
young couples through that
process.
What do you do to relax?
The number one getaway for
me is golf. Golf with friends. Golf
with family. Thats my time away in the
outdoors. I also enjoy running, swim-
ming and biking.
Hobbies? Raising children.
Music? Everything from James
Taylor and Frank Sinatra to AC/DC. My
favorite band of all-time is Motley
Crue.
Sports? I bleed green. I love the
Philadelphia Eagles.
Favorite city? Philadelphia, close-
ly followed by New York.
Favorite vacation spot? Ocean
City, Maryland. Weve been going
there for many, many years as a fam-
ily. Great golf, great relaxation, great
food and great beaches.
Favorite food? Italian. Veal Parme-
san.
Always in the fridge? Cold beer of
any flavor and Turkey Hill ice cream.
First car? 1983 yellow Subaru
hatchback.
Favorite TV show? The OReilly
Factor.
Favorite movie? I love slapstick
and most Adam Sandler movies. And
my favorite movie of all-time is Cad-
dyshack.
Favorite book? Almost everything
I read is self-help and self-improve-
ment. Aside from that, the last book I
read was Pinheads and Patriots by
Bill OReilly.
Proudest professional moment? I
started in this business when I was 21
and have been in it for 18 years. Four
years into the business, I received my
first nationally recognized award for
excellence in the industry. It was an
event held down in Naples, Florida,
and it was in front of a lot of industry
veterans, many of whom were my
parents age. It was a very humbling
experience.
Your reputation in the community
seems to bring you a lot of word-of-
mouth clients. Why do you think
that is? I dont know, but I will say its
why I love working here in this area.
Its why I will spend the rest of my life
here. I dont have any ambitions to
leave as I get older and retire to a golf
course in South Carolina. That doesnt
interest me. I love the tight-knit fabric
that we all live in, and so my business
philosophy has always been Treat Joe
as well as I treat Jim and treated Jims
mother and Jims cousin. Eighteen
years in the industry, and were a little
over 5,000 families that weve helped.
In a relatively small area, the word will
get around when youre honest and
you do a decent job.

I
ve read that in some old historic-
epic movie theres a scene in which
a Roman legionnaire going into
battle is seen wearing a wristwatch.
I personally did see a movie, set in
1945, in which a 1955 Chevrolet is
parked right in front of a building.
Well, I guess even a well-paid Holly-
wood production crew can get caught
napping. So, you folks out on the West
Coast, out of my never-wavering deter-
mination to make sure you get every-
thing historically correct, here is what
you should know to re-create summer
in America of the 1950s.
In the opening scene where the fam-
ily is driving across town, I trust youll
get the bulbous car right, but please
make sure the stop signs they encoun-
ter are yellow with black letters not
todays red-and-white. If they encoun-
ter a traffic light, theres a good chance
it will be atop a pole in the middle of
an intersection, not swinging from a
long metal arm.
When they stop for gasoline, dont
have somebody jump out with credit
card in hand. Have them sit tight while
two or more men in natty uniforms
dash forth and pump it for them, as
well as clean the windshield and check
the tires air pressure. Why not? Dads
paying 25 cents a gallon.
Incidentally, if the trip is to Scranton
or beyond, they probably wont be
driving. Theyll go by train, perhaps
Laurel Line with its electric cars.
Look, the older daughter is at home,
sighing and waiting for a letter from
her faraway love. The morning delivery
brings nothing, but all is not lost. In
those days, urban areas such as Wyom-
ing Valley got two (thats right TWO)
mail deliveries every weekday, one by
noon and the other by 4 p.m. Voila
the letter. She replies by rushing down
to the corner (only millionaires called
long-distance) to drop an envelope into
a little olive-green mailbox fastened to
a utility pole.
Younger kids arent distracted by
love affairs; theyre too busy playing.
Their toys are simple and generic,
because the $79.95 gizmo thats
themed to a movie hasnt been invent-
ed yet. Army is a popular game,
played with gas masks, canteens, khaki
blankets, bandoliers, service caps and
wooden training rifles the dads, uncles
and older brothers lugged home from
World War II.
While youre battling Americas ene-
mies, your mom is trekking down the
block to the neighborhood grocery
store for dinner fixings. Yes, you could
buy pork chops right in your neigh-
borhood (chosen yourself from your
grocers display case) and then pay the
food bill at the end of the week, 10-cent
Archie or Vault of Horror comic
books not included.
With the sun getting lower in the
sky, a deathly silence falls. No, its not a
religious holiday, but it might as well
be. Its 7:30 p.m. on a Monday, Wednes-
day or Friday, and suddenly the still-
ness is shattered by a hearty Hi-yo
Silver from all the living rooms on the
street. The Lone Ranger rides the
airwaves again, and only a communist
sympathizer would not want to hear
the Cheerios promotion for the secret
decoder ring.
Wow! Dad says hes taking everyone
out to the movies. He must have gotten
that raise because its going to set him
back about a dollar to get a family of
five in to see Pirates of Zanzibar or
Attack from Mars at the Hart/Ster-
ling/Grand/Roman or whatever the
theater in your neighborhood was
called.
I expect well all be so excited we
wont even notice if a pirate is wearing
a wristwatch.

ortheastern Pennsylvanias burgeoning
art scene will be on show this summer at
the official state exhibition.
Works by 14 artists from Luzerne, Lackawan-
na and Wyoming County have been selected to
appear in states 44th Annual Art of the State
Exhibition at The State Museum of Pennsylva-
nia in Harrisburg, one of the states most highly
selective art shows.
Of 1,933 entries from 727 Pennsylvania art-
ists, 135 works of art by 133 artists were selected
for the show, which runs from June 19 through
September 11.
Of the artists who made the show, two, Nina
Davidowitz and Skip Sensbach, hail from Lu-
zerne County, 11 are from Lackawanna County
and one is from Wyoming County.
Combined, thats more than the artists from
Pittsburgh, and more than half the number who
call Philadelphia home.
Growing art scene
Arlene Sindaco of the Wyoming Valley Art
League said those numbers highlight the growth
she has seen in the two years since she took of-
fice as the leagues coordinator.
I believe that there is a potential for North-
eastern PA to become a thriving artist communi-
ty, Sindaco said. Our locals are appreciating
and purchasing art more than ever; sales at the
WVAL Fine Arts Fiesta tent tripled this year in
spite of the economy.
The area has also seen increased diversity in
the media in which local artists work, and more-
and-more studios are opening, she said.
Galleries are being opened in homes and
apartments, said Sindaco. I noticed that a for-
mer mom-and-pop grocery store has been re-
vamped into an artists studio and gallery. More
parents are looking to enroll their children in
private art classes because of the cutbacks in the

PITTSBURGH Jay Cramer
wasnt much interested in his
familys roots until he learned
how deep they go.
The ancestry is amazing,
said Cramer, 65, of Jeannette, a
descendant of Eli Minerd, who
settled in Mt. Pleasant in the
1800s.
For Jay, its been a revela-
tion, said his wife, Frankie, 66,
who is tracing her familys gene-
alogy back to Wales in the1500s.
Eli was the youngest child of
Jacob Minerd Jr. and his wife,
Catherine, who lived on a 500-
acre farm near Kingwood in
Somerset County in the 1800s.
Their nine children produced
for them 63 grandchildren and
226 great-grandchildren.
The Pennsylvania German
family traces its roots to Jacob
and Maria (Neun) Minerd, who
settled along the border of
Fayette and Somerset counties
in 1791. They had 12 children
and at least 87 grandchildren,
479 great-grandchildren and
1,400 great-great-grandchildren.
Members of the family will
gather for their yearly reunion
June 25-26 a few miles from
where Jacob and Maria Minerd
settled at Maple Summit in
1791. About 125 people attended
their first reunion on Aug. 21,
1913, in Ferncliff Park in Ohio-
pyle.
The size of the clan is unusu-
al, said John T. Humphrey, past
president of the Mid-Atlantic
Germanic Society, a past vice
president of the Genealogical
Society of Pennsylvania and the
leader of the National Genealog-
ical Society German forum.
It would be more common
for a man to have 10 to 12 chil-
dren with two wives, he said.
The survival rate in colonial
America was better than Eu-
rope, so you basically had wom-
en having babies every two
years.
The Minerd family played a
role in shaping the history of the
region and country; it also had
its share of scandal.
The family says Rebecca Min-
erd (1850-1915) had a love affair
with Capt. Thomas Ward Cus-
ter, brother of Gen. George Arm-
strong Custer, that produced a
son when they were neighbors
in Wood County, Ohio. Both
Custer brothers died in the Bat-
tle of Little Big Horn.
The family included an actor
who made films with some of
Hollywoods top stars, a writer
who published prize-winning
fiction and a guidance systems
engineer in the Apollo rocket
program. The clan produced
two Connellsville mayors, a Ma-
jor League Baseball pitcher and
a pastor.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning. But anyone
can start today to make a new ending.
At Cloud9, our ftness philosophy goes against all you have
been told before. One has to question what you have been
told and by whom. It seems everyone is a self-proclaimed
ftness expert, although not everyone has the physique to back
up their philosophies. It is great to question the validity of
something. Give us a chance, at least 3 months, and then you
can be as skeptical as you want if you dont notice any results.

The Luzerne County Office of Human Services has formed a
committee to explore the technology needs of individuals with
intellectual disabilities and deaf/hard of hearing in order to access
91 1 at the time of an emergency. A secure database of information
allowing for a seamless intervention by first responders will be
developed. Representatives of the State Office of the Deaf and
Hard of Hearing, Luzerne County 91 1 Communication Center, and
Advocacy Alliances Health Care Quality Unit, will also join these
discussions. First row, from left, are Angela Romiski, NEPA Center
for Independent Living; Kristen Hibbard, interpreter; and Janine

dation Program; Thomas L. Shaffer, NEPA Center for Independent
Living; and Joseph DeVizia, Luzerne County Office of Human Ser-
vices.

Allied Terrace Assisted Living Facility held its annual Senior Prom.
This years theme was Spring Fling and music was played by the
residents favorite band, Firefall. Scallops, lamb chops, risotto, and
asparagus were followed by strawberry shortcake. The residents
chose and crowned the Prom King and Queen and, wearing their
finest party attire, danced the evening away. From left, are the Prom

Students from the Marketing Club at Wilkes University recently
conducted a cell phone drive for Victims Resource Center (VRC).
The fundraiser gives money to VRC for each cell phone that is
recycled. Wilkes University students and VRC have partnered all
year on raising awareness about sexual violence. Victims Re-
source Center provides 24-hour support services to victims of
crime in Luzerne, Wyoming and Carbon Counties. For more in-
formation about VRC, call 1-866-206-9050. From left: Jennifer S.
Jones, Tobyhanna; Aaron Fink, Berwick; and Gretchen Yeninas,
advising coordinator, Wilkes University.
Cell phone drive benefits Victims Resource Center
members. The site drew more
than 1.7 million visitors since
its launch on May 7, 2000, in-
cluding 266,552 the past year.
Most people trace their fam-
ilies looking in reverse. This
site helps people watch time
elapse in a forward fashion,
said Mark Miner, 49, of Beaver,
who has organized the familys
reunions since1995 and runs its
website, www.minerd.com.
Miner is hoping to attract 130
to 140 of his cousins to this
years reunion. The count of de-
scendants numbers in the thou-
sands, said Miner, whose last
names spelling is one of at least
five offshoots of Minerd.
These people were not edu-
cated, he said. The spelling
probably didnt matter until So-
cial Security and the IRS came
along.
Family members worked in
education, the military or on
railroads, farms and in manu-
facturing plants. At least 330 of
them mined coal and made
coke and steel.
Fourteen men from the clan
were killed in workplace acci-
dents between 1884 and 1941.
Thirty people from the family
died in fatal railroad and street-
car accidents. Since 2000, 753
members of the clan have died.
Sharon Kern of Findlay, Ohio,
is a great-granddaughter of Civ-
il War soldier David Harbaugh
of the 5th Pennsylvania Heavy
Artillery and his wife, Mary
Magdalene Lena Whipkey.
Kern, the last one in her line
from Letitia Whipkey, David
and Mary Harbaughs daughter,
became deliberate in genealo-
gy in 1999 after spending the
previous summer clearing out
her mothers house after she
died.
When she found more than
100 professional photographs of
her ancestors taken more than
100 years ago, that sparked my
interest.
She began sorting through
the photos, documents and oth-
er snapshots. Her grandmother
Letitia had them pretty well la-
beled.
Kern attended her first Min-
erd reunion in 2001.
Among the artifacts she has
are daybooks from Nathan
Shaws farm from 1853-1863.
I have bins of people ... docu-
ments, maps photographs, she
said.

Backyard beauty
Suburban Rhythms, by Ni-
na Davidowitz of Kingston, is
one of two works by Luzerne
County artists included in the
show.
The painting is from a series
Davidowitz began in 2000 ti-
tled Suburban Landscapes,
which captures impressionis-
tic glances of houses, back-
yards and everyday land-
scapes in acrylics, pencil and
collage, with a focus on the in-
terplays of light and shadow
and of nature and the man-
made world.
I love it when people look
at my paintings and say, I
know where that is, Davido-
witz said. My scenes are very,
very familiar; theyre very
Northeast PA.
The Kingston native said
she was inspired to create the
series after taking an extend-
ed vacation out of the area,
spending a month in Italy.
Italy is so dusty, and every-
thing is made of stone, she
said. When I got home, it was
so green here. I thought I
should just do paintings of
what I see everyday.
She now seeks inspiration
locally, on walks around her
neighborhood and wherever
she may roam. She snaps pho-
tos with a camera, frequently
the one in her cell phone, to
work from later.
Verdant hues seem to leap
from the canvas in Suburban
Rhythms, which depicts the
rear of a row of cookie-cutter
white houses bisected by a
row of green and yellow for-
sythia bushes in bloom and
crowned by an enormous tree.
The scene is a scene Ive
painted over and over again;
its my old backyard in King-
ston, Davidowitz said. Its
very, very bright and happy.
My other name for it is The
Glory of Spring, because its
just bursting with green.
The 38-inch square painting
from 2009 is one of the largest
she has done, and took about 6
weeks to finish.
Davidowitz, 52, has been
pursuing art full-time for five
years, though she has been a
professional artist for more
than 25 years.
Though she earned a Mas-
ter of Fine Arts degree from
Marywood University in 2004,
Davidowitz did not earn her
undergraduate degree from an
art school, and said she is
largely self-taught.
Ive just kept at it, she
said. My uncle once told me
you can tell the quality of an
artist by looking in his trash
bin. The key is, you just have
to do lots and lots of work, and
some of it will end up being re-
ally good.
Her love of art seems to
have inspired her children,
she said. Her son Max gradu-
ated in May from the Art In-
stitute of Chicago, and her
daughter Amanda works in
New York for a nonprofit that
provides grants to communi-
ty-theater groups around the
country.
Davidowitz is married to
Jack Weinberg of Kingston.
Contorting nature
Skip Sensbach of Lehman
Township also draws much of
his inspiration from the area,
albeit in a more abstract fash-
ion.
Sensbach refers to some of
his clay sculptures as genet-
ically-modified organisms be-
cause they were inspired by
the clash between our agri-
cultural base and our manu-
facturing base.
He also draws inspiration
from the functional pottery he
produces at his home studio,
he said, as he pointed out a
pattern of intersecting rectan-
gles on recently completed
sushi plates stacked in front
his kiln, which is repeated in a
sculpture standing in his back-
yard.
I view both as being artis-
tic, whether its functional or
not, he said. It really de-
pends on my mood. Ill go
through long stretches where
I just want to throw mugs and
bowls, and it will inspire
something.
But in creating Notch, the
2010 sculpture selected for
this summers state exhibi-
tion, Sensbach drew from
more personal experience.
Three years ago, Sensbachs
father Gene became seriously
ill and needed a kidney trans-
plant. Skips blood type meant
he could donate one of his kid-
neys, and in November 2007
he traveled to Naples, Fla. for
the transplant operation. His
father is alive and well today.
Notch joins two unglazed
clay triangles, one with a
notch in its side, together with
a 12-foot beam of unfinished
wood in a gravity-defying
manner.
The artist said it was in-
spired by the separate ele-
ments his kidney, his fathers
body, a team of surgeons and
nurses that came together to
save his fathers life.
Its all about themintercon-
necting together to make a
whole, he said.
This year is the first time
one of Sensbachs works was
accepted into the state show,
though he applied once before
two years ago.
He said he was thrilled to
learn he had made the show,
and thought it was even bet-
ter when I went down to Har-
risburg and saw it.
You walk through the doors
and its like boom, right in
the middle of the room, he
said.
Sensbach began making
pottery and clay sculptures
about 15 years ago, not long af-
ter moving to the area from
New Jersey, and has focused
increasingly on sculpture
since graduating from Mary-
wood University with a Mas-
ter of Fine Arts degree in 2010.
He ran a teaching studio,
Green Dog Pottery, in Dallas
from 2005 until around the
time of his surgery, and is now
an adjunct professor of art at
Marywood. In the fall, he will
also work as an adjunct profes-
sor in Misericordias new pot-
tery program, which will offer
credit-bearing and community
classes.
Sensbach lives with his wife
Kirsten and son Ethan, 12, in
Lehman Township.

READING, Pa. Its as if a
golfing Uncle Sam yelled,
Fore! and Berks Countys 18-
year-old Pollock quadruplets
heard a number and dutifully
answered the call.
Graduating from Wilson
High School last week, Erin,
Stephanie, Brandon and Wil-
liam, Berks first quads, born
Aug. 6, 1992, to Jim, now 46,
and Kim, now 44, of Spring
Township, will be donning
Pennsylvania Army National
Guard uniforms.
Three of the four had their
first drills this month, said
Sgt. 1st Class James E. Waid,
39, of Fleetwood, their
recruiting officer.
Ive already started crying
because they will always be
my babies. Im a mother, said
Kim, who works in the coun-
tys 9-1-1- emergency call cen-
ter. But I am very proud of
them, and I support their de-
cision.
The Pollocks oldest son,
Anthony A.J., 21, is a junior
studying digital film and vid-
eo production at the New En-
gland Art Institute, Boston.
The Pollocks said Erin de-
cided to enlist and then con-
vinced her siblings to do like-
wise.
Stephanies decision was
the one that shocked us, said
Jim, a Muhlenberg Township
police detective.
Unlike Erin, the self-de-
scribed tomboy, Stephanie is
more of the girl-girl type and
serious student, Jim said.
The thing is, even though
they can fight and argue, my
children have always done
things together ever since
they were born, Kim said.
For the young Pollocks,
their motivation to serve is
rooted in a public-service ori-
ented family with jobs in po-
lice, firefighting and emergen-
cy service fields. Their grand-
parents also served, in the Air
Force and Navy.
The practical considera-
tions of needing to learn a
skill and earning money for a
college education helped turn
the tide in favor of the mil-
itary.
Erin with the 328th Support
Battalion, Lebanon, leaves for
basic training at Fort Jackson,
S. C., on July 19, and then to
become a culinary specialist.
Stephanie and Brandon,
with the 2nd Squadron 104th
Cavalry Unit, Reading, leave
for basic at Fort Leonard
Wood, Mo., Oct. 4, and will
study automated logistics and
inventory control.
Williams assignment is
pending the military entrance
exam.
Waid said the Pollocks six-
year military obligation in-
volves service one weekend
each month and two weeks in
the summer. They will each
receive $15,000 yearly for col-
lege expenses.
As soon as they become
soldiers they are eligible for
deployment, said Waid, who
was in the Army for four years
and the Pennsylvania Nation-
al Guard for 16. Service to
the country leads the list of
reasons of those who enlist,
but very close behind are the
educational incentives.
Three of the quads have col-
lege ambitions, Stephanie,
nursing; Erin, liberal arts
with a culinary arts bent; and
William, military/police
work. Brandon said he might
like becoming a camp coun-
selor.

SPORTS S E C T I O N C
THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, JUNE 19, 2011
timesleader.com
H
e was already on his way to
NASCARs Hall of Fame, be-
cause anyone with more than
70 career wins seems to get an auto-
matic ticket in.
Now its time to write Jeff Gordons
name into the top spot of NASCARs
all-time greatest drivers.
That stirring run Gordon put togeth-
er to win the 5-Hour Energy 500 at
Pocono Raceway last weekend was his
second victory of an up-and-down
season for him, and 84th of his brilliant
driving career. He will pass Darrell
Waltrip and Bobby Allison with his
next victory, and move into sole pos-
session of third place on the list of his
sports all-time winningest drivers.
If he stays on track for another 10
years, Gordon who will turn 40 dur-
ing the week leading up to the Aug. 7
race at Pocono has a shot at David
Pearsons 105 career wins for second
place on the all-time list.
I feel like I still have a lot to offer in
the car, Gordon said after winning at
Pocono last Sunday.
Hell never catch Richard Petty for
the lead at 200 victories. And Jimmie
Johnson, whos won the last five NAS-
CAR championships, is the best bet to
catch Petty and the late Dale Earn-
hardt for the most season titles with
seven.
But Petty became known as the king
of the track in an era without restrictor
plates, scrupulous car modifications
and rules that seem to change by the
lap.
Johnsons put together his eye-pop-
ping run during the last six years.
Gordons been better for longer.
Than both of them.
Ironically, his first NASCAR race was
the last one for Petty, down in Atlanta
in 1992.
Since then, Gordon has been a factor
on the track through three decades.
He won three series Cup titles in
four years in the 1990s.
Hes Jeff Gordon and hes that
good, fellow driver Kurt Busch said.
When I came in as a rookie, I set the
bar to try and compete with him. Its
impressive to see what hes done over
his career. Not just this decade, not
just in the 2000s, but back into the
90s.
Gordon captured has last series title
in 2001, but he finished among the top
four in series points five more times
during that decade.
We were living at the peak of the
mountain there for a number of years,
Gordon said.
Everyone thought he fell off hard
when Gordon didnt win a single race
last year, giving him two winless sea-
sons in three years.
To me, the people the media talk
about and the fans talk about are doing
it on a consistent basis, Gordon said.
When we were doing that, people
looked at us. We just havent put the
numbers together (lately). So I dont
expect anybody to look at us as a real
threat.
Theyre looking at Gordon a little
differently these days.
He will start in the back of the pack
for todays Helluva Good! Sour Cream
Dips 400 at Michigan International
Speedway. And Gordon hasnt finished
within the top 20 four times in his 13
races this season.
He still has those two victories,
which have him on the verge of crack-
ing the 10 drivers who get an automat-
ic berth into the season-ending Race
for the Chase series.
These days, you just never know
when its going to be your last win and
when your next one is coming, Gor-
don said.
Chances are, another trip to Victory
Lane is coming soon for him. After
spending a whole racing lifetime there,
guys like Gordon dont forget how to
win.

LEHMAN TWP. Standing in front
of a group of exhausted wrestlers late
Wednesday afternoon, University of Ok-
lahoma head coach Mark Cody offered
his young audience two tips to follow if
they desired future success in the sport.
Dont let anyone make you do some-
thing you dont want to do, said Cody.
Losers love other losers. Live your life
like a warrior.
The former American University
coach, and2011Coachof theYear as vot-
ed by the National Wrestling Coaching
Association, instructed almost 30 wres-
tlers for two hours at the second annual
Eagles Way Wrestling Camp at Lake-
Lehman High School.
Watching over local wrestlers aspir-
ing to be the next national champion or
gold-medal Olympian, Cody provided
techniques and words of motivation.
To do this (collegiate wrestling) you
have to have discipline outside of the
wrestling room, Cody said. Make it a
rule to do something every day to make
yourself better as a competitor.

The 22-year-old fromNorthern Ireland
will sleep on the lead heading into the fi-
nal day of a major for the second straight
time. But this lead is double the size of
the one he held at the Masters two
months ago, whenhe blewuponthe back
nine, shot 80 and finished 15th.
Overall, Imvery happy with the way I
played today, McIlroy said. Now, I just
have to do that for 18 more holes.
Knowing their chances were slim to
catch the leader, the rest of the field took
its frustration out on Congressional, a

kept punishing the golf course and the re-
cord book Saturday, setting himself up
with an eight-shot lead at the U.S. Open
with 18 holes left between him and his
first major championship.
Inathirdroundthat felt morelikeareg-
ular day on tour than the toughest test in
golf, McIlroy shot 3-under-par 68 tofinish
at 14-under 199, breaking Jim Furyks re-
cord for the best 54-hole score by one
stroke.
McIlroy leads Y.E. Yang (70) by eight
and Lee Westwood (65), Jason Day (65)
and Robert Garrigus (68) by nine.

rough and rain-soaked greens.
There were 26 rounds under par, a re-
cord for the third round of the U.S. Open,
and the 72 players carded a total of 224
birdies.
Couldve been a scary scene for McIl-
roy, whosawthe mid-60s onthe boardbe-
fore he ever reached the first tee box, but
he didnt waver.
He playedscramblinggolf over the first
few holes, while he was having trouble
finding the fairway, then made birdies on

number never seen before on a U.S. Open

UPCOMI NG YANKEES SCHEDUL E
Gary Sanchez: The catcher,
who is rated the No. 2 overall
prospect, just behind Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre catcher Jesus
Montero is playing for Single-A
Charleston. Sanchez is touted
by many as the organizations
best hitting prospect.
Since returning to the River-
Dogs after being suspended by
the team for a couple weeks
because of attitude problems,
he has got a hit in seven of
eight games going 11-for-29 in
that period. He has raised his
average to .255 with five home
runs and 24 RBI in 43 games.
Austin Romine: Another
catcher and the No. 6 overall
prospect for the Yankees, the
22-year-old is having a solid
season at Double-A Trenton.
Unfortunately, hes been
shelved with a concussion
since June 2 after a collision at
home.
Before the injury, he was hot
in his last 10 games for the
Thunder hitting .375. Overall
his average is .298 with four
home runs and 31 RBI in 178
at-bats.
Dellin Betances: The No. 3
overall prospect for the Yan-
kees and the top pitching pros-
pect, Betances was hit with a
tough loss earlier in the week
when he only gave up one
earned run in five innings
against Harrisburg for Dou-
ble-A Trenton.
The 6-foot-8, 260-pound
right-handers ERA rose from
1.75 to 1.76 in the outing. For
the season for the Thunder,
hes 3-2 with 66 punch-outs in
and only 37 hits allowed in 56
1
3 innings.
Manny Banuelos: The No. 2
pitching prospect in the orga-
nization and the No. 4 overall
prospect for the Yankees, Ba-
nuelos pitched twice in the last
seven days and went 0-1 allow-
ing a total of five runs for Dou-
ble-A Trenton. All of those
runs came in a loss to Bing-
hamton when he allowed them
in three innings.
The 20-year-old right-hander
is 2-0 this year with an ERA of
2.88, with 53 strikeouts in 56
1
3
innings.
YA N K E E S P R O S P E C T S
Suspended catcher
back, hitting well
Editors Note: The Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees have taken a page
from their parent club by winning
championships.
SWB has racked up four consecutive
International League North Division
titles and more could be on the way
because the minor league system is
stacked with top prospects that are
close to contributing at the Triple-A
or Major League level, according to
Baseball America.
By DAVE ROSENGRANT
drosengrant@timesleader.com
Before 1993, the Red Barons
struggled when they played in
Toledo, winning just 10 times
in five years.
On June 19, 1993, Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre broke that slump
in a big way, defeating the
Mud Hens 21-4 and hitting
.500 in the game (26-for-52).
The Barons also scored what
was a team record at the time
of nine runs in one inning.
However, the record nine-
run frame only stood for
about two months when the
team busted out for 12 runs
in an August game later that
season.
The total runs in a game
mark stood until 26 were
scored in 1998 and the team-
mark of 27 hits was also re-
corded in that game, which
also took place at Toledo.
On This Date
Jonathan Singleton: The
Phillies top hitting prospect,
now that Domonic Brown is in
the big leagues, the 20-year-old
started the season playing in the
outfield after a productive sea-
son last year at first base. The
lefty struggled at the plate so he
was moved back to first base
playing for Class-A Clearwater.
For the Threshers, hes hitting
.247 with three homers and 21
RBI in 56 games.
Brody Colvin: The teams top
pitching prospect had a rough
outing his last time out, allow-
ing five runs in five innings
against Dunedin, but he didnt
get hit with a loss.
Overall this season for Clear-
water, hes tossed 38
1
3 innings
with an 0-2 mark and a 4.70
ERA. The 21-year-old right-
hander has fanned 31 strikeouts
and walked just 17.
Jesse Biddle: The Phillies No.
1 pick from 2010 pitched well
enough to win earlier in the
week against Hagerstown for
Low-A Lakewood, but took a
no-decision. He gave up two
runs in six innings and struck
out nine for the BlueClaws.
The 19-year-old lefty is 3-6
with a 4.03 ERA for the Blue-
Claws, with 60 strikeouts in 67
innings.
Phillippe Aumont: One of the
three players acquired by the
Phillies in the Cliff Lee deal in
December 2009, hes a former
first-round pick by the Mariners
(11th overall) in 2007.
The 6-foot-7, 255-pound
righty has pitched out of the
bullpen for Reading this season
and was called up to Triple-A
earlier this week. For the R-
Phils, he was 1-5 with four saves
and a 2.32 ERA in 25 appear-
ances. He has yet to appear in a
game for Lehigh Valley.
P H I L L I E S I N M I N O R S
Hot prospect has
struggles in A-ball
Editors Note: The Philadelphia
Phillies minor league system has
lost some highly regarded prospec-
ts during the last few years with
many trades being made to help
the parent club.
But that doesnt mean the cup-
board is bare.
The Phillies have produced more
young talent and might have more
pieces to deal if they need to make
a midseason trade this season.
Here are how some of the top
prospects in the Philadelphia orga-
nization are faring this season:
By DAVE ROSENGRANT
drosengrant@timesleader.com
The MLBamateur draft concluded near-
ly two weeks ago.
Most of the highly regarded players
taken were picked during the first two days
of the three-day event.
When Brandon Laird was drafted by the
Yankees in 2007, he was picked in the 27th
round, which would have been on Day 3 of
the recent draft. Statistics have shown that
not many of the prospects selected from
the 25th round or later make it to the big
leagues; in fact, many of the players who go
that late in the draft never even sign.
Laird is beating those odds and could
turn out to be the steal of that draft.
The Yankees just took a chance on me
and I wasnt really asking for a lot of mon-
ey. I knewwhat I was worth, Laird said.
So I just got the negotiating right and I got
my career started and talked to my brother,
who gave me a lot of advice.
The corner infielder busted onto the
scene last year with Double-ATrenton,
blasting 23 home runs and driving in 90
runs to claimEastern League MVP and
Rookie of the Year honors. Those numbers
vaulted Laird to No. 10 on the Yankees top
prospect list to begin the season, according
to Baseball America.
The 23-year-old got a chance in Triple-A
late last year and started this season slowly
for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre as he hit .184 in
April. He showed his potential by batting
.307 in May and nowis regularly penciled
into manager Dave Mileys lineup in the
middle of the order.
Its just been adjustments and I think
this year Imtrying to get it and feel more
comfortable, and hopefully I can get it
going, Laird said.
Brandons brother is Gerald Laird, a big
league backup catcher for St. Louis, who
has also played in the majors for Texas and
Detroit.
Growing up, Laird followed in his broth-
ers footsteps attending the same high
school, La Quinta, a programin California
known for producing outstanding players.
Gerald Laird played with Bobby Crosby,
an eight-year MLBveteran. Brandon
played with former SWBYankee Ian Ken-
nedy and current Rockies third baseman
Ian Stewart.
Every year we had great players there.
Its a successful teamand a good school, so
it was fun, Laird noted.
After high school in 2005, Laird was
drafted by Cleveland in the 27th round, but
opted not to sign so he could continue to
progress in school. That summer, he played
on USAbaseballs Junior National Team.
Afewyears later, he was picked by the
Yankees out of Cypress (Calif.) Communi-
ty College and nowappears to be on the
path to the majors.
One thing stopping the right-handed
hitter fromadvancing to NewYork is that
the corner infield positions are currently
locked up with Alex Rodriguez at third and
Mark Teixeira at first.
But the Yankees brass like Laird enough
that they protected himfromlast years
Rule Vdraft and added himto the 40-man
roster.
That move resulted in the organization
sending the prospect to the Arizona Fall
League last fall to get acclimated to playing
the outfield.
Laird played left field in the fall, but with
a crowded outfield for Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre, Laird has only played in the outfield
for a handful of innings in Triple-A.
But hes ready to play there when called
upon.
I feel comfortable out there. When they
throwme out there I will just do whatever I
can to make the plays, Laird said. My
main positions are third and first, and the
more positions the merrier and whatever
gets me to the big leagues faster.
Any way I can get up there and get in
that lineup and be on the field and help that
teamcontribute to get to the playoffs and
win the World Series, Ill do it. As long as
Imon the field, Imhappy.
Round-27 draft pick has turned into one of N.Y.s top prospects
AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER
SWB infielder Brandon Laird has come a long way since being drafted in round 27 in 2007. After starring in the
Double-A Eastern League last year, Laird has become a regular in the middle of the Triple-A Yankees batting order.

U . S . O P E N
BETHESDA, Md. It prob-
ably wont cost Webb Simpsona
tournament this time. Still, he
must be wondering what he did
to get onthe wrong side of the
golf gods.
Simpsons early roundof 5-
under 66 at the U.S. Openon
Saturday includeda penalty
stroke whenhis ball movedafter
he addressedit withhis putter on
the13thgreen. It was the same
penalty he took sevenweeks ago
at the ZurichOpeninNewOr-
leans.
I addressedthe ball, andthe
ball movedabout a half-inch,
quarter-inch, Simpsonsaid. I
think weve beenthroughthis
too many times, hadnt we? But it
was kindof the same deal as New
Orleans. It was unfortunate, but I
think it really made me commit-
tedto try to finishstrong andI
made a couple of goodbirdies
coming in.
Simpsonsaidit was his third
time he incurredsucha penalty
as a pro. It also happenedto him
once while playing at Wake For-
est.
But it was the misfortune at
Zurichthat might leadto a
change inthe rules of golf. He
was leading by a shot andhead-
ing for a tap-inonthe15thhole
onSunday, but the ball movedas
he addressedit onthe green. He
woundup taking a penalty and
finishedina tie withBubba Wat-
son, who beat Simpsoninthe
playoff.
The U.S. Golf Associationand
the Royal andAncient are look-
ing into changing the rule so that
the golfer isnt penalizedif it can
be proventhe ball was movedby
anoutside force.
But it was still ineffect at the
U.S. Open, whichcost Simpsona
stroke inthe best roundof the
early going.
Simpsonmanagedto come out
evenona more adventurous
hole. His drive at No. 18 landed
inthe lap of a spectator sitting
cross-leggedonthe groundalong
the ropes. The fandutifully sat
there alone as everyone around
himretreated. Simpsonwalked
up to himandhumorously panto-
mimeda swing, as if he were
going to play the ball fromexact-
ly where it was.
Ima pretty experienced
golfer, saidthe fan, ToddParker,
so I knewnot to move.
Arules official came along and
instructedSimpsonto pick up
the ball. He took a drop and
made a nice recovery, even
thoughhis follow-through
smackedagainst the trunk of a
large tree. He parredthe hole.
Ive never hada ball endup in
somebodys lap, Simpsonsaid.
It remindedme of Happy Gil-
more. It endedup being a good
break, just to the right of the
trees. The roughthere wasnt
high, it was laiddown, so it was a
pretty goodbreak.
AMONEYBIRDIE, INMORE
WAYSTHANONE: AdamHad-
winarrivedat the U.S. Open
early Saturday withone hole to
play. Shoot a birdie, andhedget
to play 36 more.
The 22-year-oldfromBritish
Columbia was about to tee off at
No. 9 Friday evening whenthe
hornsounded, suspending play
for the day. He was at 5 over, one
stroke belowthe cut line.
I was inthe clubhouse andI
checkedthe scores andI knew
that 4 was going to be the num-
ber, so I neededbirdie, Hadwin
said. It was a late night, early
morning.
Teeing off at 8:15 a.m. at the
long par 5, Hadwinput his drive
inthe rough, got his secondshot
to 98 yards andnailedhis ap-
proachwithin6 inches. Easy
birdie putt. Cut made. His trip to
Congressional will come witha
paycheck.
Youve got to splurge a little
bit here, saidHadwin, whose
Saturday evening plans included
a trip into Washington, D.C., to
see the sights. This is my first
Open, andso Imgoing to treat
myself well andenjoy, andobvi-
ously making the cut helps.
The birdie came withanother,
more important payoff. Hadwins
brother was recently hospital-
izedwithCrohns disease, so the
two of themcreateda campaign
to solicit pledges for every birdie
Hadwinmakes at the champion-
ship.
After making the cut, Hadwin
showered, ate breakfast, then
teedoff inthe thirdroundwith
the first group at 10 a.m. He shot
a 73 despite the quick turn-
aroundandsnaggedthree more
birdies, giving himnine for the
tournament anda total of about
$10,000 raisedfor his cause.
Tomorrows just going to be
about having funandmaking
birdies, he said.
NO. 1, BUTNOTHISA-
GAME: Luke Donalds approach
at No. 15 landedona nasty steep
slope next to the green. He made
a nice recovery, chipping near
the pinfor a short putt for par.
Its beenthat kindof week at
the U.S. Openfor the No. 1player
inthe world. Goodandbad.
Enoughbadthat hes 7 over after
three rounds, well out of conten-
tionandcertainto leave without
that elusive first major title.
Its beena mixture of every-
thing, really, Donaldsaidafter
his roundof 74 Saturday. I
havent drivenit well enough,
obviously that puts pressure on
your irons. Andtoday I really
didnt make enoughputts and
couldve shot a couple under
quite easily if Idmade a few
putts. Its one of those weeks
where Imnot quite firing.
He certainly wasnt about to
blame the course. Infact, he said
Congressional was playing more
like a stop onthe PGATour.
The roughisnt quite as gnar-
ly as at some other U.S. Opens,
saidDonald, adding that the
greens were also soft because of
the rainonFriday. It has that
different feel. It almost feels like
the Firestone or something. Its
still toughout there, some tough
pins, andyouve got to play well
to shoot a goodscore.

Luke Donald, of England, the worlds No. 1 player, chips to the 18th
green during the U.S. Open Saturday. Donald shot a 3-over 74 and
stands at 7-over 220, 21 shots behind leader Rory McIlroy
N O T E B O O K
the heat index into triple-digit
territory, stunting the growth
of the rough, wilting the fair-
ways and greens and putting
the USGA behind in its prep-
arations. The rain finally start-
ed falling on Thursday after
play was under way literally
a gift from the heavens for any-
one who likes their golf in the
60s.
Those not shooting in the
red are faulting themselves for
leaving strokes on the course.
World No. 1 Luke Donald said
he couldve shot a couple un-
der quite easily if hed only
made a few putts.
The rough isnt quite as
gnarly as at some other U.S.
Opens, Donald said after his
third-round 74. It has that dif-
ferent feel. It almost feels like
the Firestone or something. Its
still tough out there, some
tough pins, and youve got to
play well to shoot a good
score.
Phil Mickelson was also
among those looking for a
tougher challenge, even
though he appeared to be chal-
lenged quite sufficiently in his
round of 77.
It would be really fun to see
had we not had the rain, Mick-
elson said, because I think its
such a fair setup that it could
accommodate fair conditions
that they were anticipating.
But, really, the course itself is
very fair and leads itself to
good scores if you play well
and high scores if you dont,
which I dont think you could
ask for anything more.
Westwood certainly wasnt
pining for a harder course after
his three straight birdies on the
back nine Saturday. For him,
all that red on the leaderboard
is a refreshing U.S. Open
change.
Yeah, nice to see. They set
the golf course up great, West-
wood said. You play well, you
shoot good scores. Theres no
tricks to this one. Its a fair,
honest course.
BETHESDA, Md. Rory
McIlroy isnt the only golfer
having his way with the Blue
Course at the U.S. Open. See
the 65s from Jason Day and
Lee Westwood? And the 66s
from Webb Simpson and Fre-
drik Jacobson? Count em: a re-
cord-setting 26 rounds under
par on Saturday.
Ive been a little disappoint-
ed with the golf course the last
couple of days. It wasnt as firm
and fast as I would like to have
seen it, said defending cham-
pion Graeme McDowell, whose
red-number contribution was a
69 that put him at even par
going into today. The greens
are soaking wet, and so are the
fairways. Its target golf. Its not
really a U.S. Open.
The previous record for sub-
par rounds in the third round
of a U.S. Open was 24, set at
Medinah in 1990. Congression-
al could produce scores like
this back when the Kemper
was played here and no one
would blink, but its now sup-
posed to be rigged up for the
toughest test in golf.
You can take advantage of it
and go for more flags than you
can in a U.S. Open, said Jacob-
son, who birdied 10 of 15 holes
with nary a bogey during a
stretch that began late in the
second round. Thats why I
think were seeing red num-
bers. It is what it is. If it rains a
bit, youve got to try and make
the most out of it.
The U.S. Golf Association
spent years planning for this
weekend. All the greens were
rebuilt. Tee boxes were moved
back so far that theyre nearly
bisecting other fairways, mak-
ing it often confusing to figure
out which hole is next without
the aid of a map or a direction-
al sign. Its a whopping 7,574
yards from start to finish if all
the back tees are used.
But last weeks stifling tem-
peratures and humidity sent

scoreboard. Of course, thats old
news by now. On Friday, McIlroy
reached13under for thefirst time
inU.S. Openhistoryandtookare-
cord-tyingsix-strokecushioninto
the weekend.
His eight-shot advantage is two
short of the lead Tiger Woods
took to today at Pebble Beach in
2000, when he routed the field by
15 shots. ThoughMcIlroy andhis
performance during a near-per-
fect weekof golf aredrawingcom-
parisons to Woods, he wants no
part of it.
Im still looking for my first
one, McIlroy said. Thats all I
can say. Im looking for my first
one. I put myself in good position
to do it tomorrow and well see
what happens.
The way hes playing, and with
acushionassoft asthegolf course
hes overrunning, it would take
something of epic proportions to
prevent it. The biggest final-day
lead ever surrendered at a major
was six strokes, when Greg Nor-
manlost toNickFaldoat the1996
Masters.
When you go in 12 behind
somebody, youcanplay as well as
youdliketoplaybut itsstill going
to be a matter of the leader com-
ing back to you, Westwood said.
No use thinking about what Ro-
rysdoing. ButIveplayedwithbig
leads in the past. Its not easy.
Well see what happens.
Yang will be paired with McIl-
royforthesecondstraight day. He
came into the third round six
shots behind and had the best
chance to apply pressure. But he
moved backward, not closer, and
he was sensing the inevitable.
Ill try and catch up with Rory
as much as possible, as much as I
can, Yang said. But if he doesnt
letgo, itsgoingtobearaceforsec-
ond place. Implaying some good
golf right now, actually.
Not goodenough. Andif he felt
any glimmer of hope when McIl-
roy made his single bogey of the
day on No. 10, after hitting tee
shot into a back bunker it was
gone ina flash.
McIlroyansweredbyhittingan
approach shot from the rough to
18 feet on No. 11, then sinking the
putt and pumping his fist as he
walked to grab the ball from the
hole.
That put him back at 13-under
par. On14, hehit hisapproachto6
feet andmade that.
On the front side, McIlroy
wasnt nearly as locked in early
Saturdayashewasduringthefirst
two rounds, when he set the 36-
hole U.S. Open scoring record at
11-under 131. He missed fairways
on 1, 3, 8 and 9 on the front side
and pushed his approach into a
greensidebunker onNo. 4. But he
made par or better on all those
holes and his lead six shots at
the beginning of the day never
shrank.
The tone for the day and the
course was set early, when Webb
Simpsonshot 5-under 66tomove
to1under.
The golf course is pretty soft.
The greens are soft, said Simp-
son, who made seven birdies. I
got acouplegoodliesintherough
today that I probably didnt de-
serve. I thinkyoull seesomepret-
ty good scores like mine, and
some pretty highscores, too.
The USGA prides itself on set-
ting up the toughest courses on
the planet. But Congressional
hasnt livedup to that reputation.
All theplayersknewit, eventhe
ones who werent taking advan-
tage.
Theroughisnt quiteas gnarly
as at some other U.S. Opens,
world No. 1 Luke Donald said af-
ter shooting 3-over 74. It has a
different feel. It almost feels like
the Firestone or something. But
its still tough out there. Some
tough pins and youve got to play
well to shoot a goodscore.
Day was among those with the
good scores. The 23-year-old,
who finished second at the Mas-
ters, didnt make a bogey and fin-
ished the day with a birdie on No.
18.
He scoffed at the idea that ev-
eryone but McIlroy was playing
for second. But as thedayworeon
and McIlroys play kept getting
better, the inevitable was starting
to set in.
Hes playing awesome, said
Sergio Garcia, whose 2-under par
would be in contention during
most years at the U.S. Open. I
would expect him to play the
same way tomorrow and proba-
bly win.

CHICAGOCurtis Gran-
derson hit a tiebreaking sacri-
fice fly in the sixth inning and
Brett Gardner made a terrific
play in the outfield to lead the
NewYork Yankees to a 4-3 victo-
ry over the Chicago Cubs on
Saturday.
Granderson, who was born in
nearby Blue Island, also had
two hits and a walk as the Yan-
kees won for the seventh time
in nine games, bouncing back
froma 3-1loss in the opener of
their first series at Wrigley Field
in eight years.
Grandersons fly ball to deep
right put NewYork ahead 3-2,
but the Yankees almost blewit
with shoddy fielding behind
A.J. Burnett (7-5), who struck
out eight in 51-3 innings.
Cubs starter Ryan Dempster
(5-6) was in trouble throughout
the game, setting season highs
with six walks and119 pitches.
The right-hander allowed three
runs and eight hits in 51-3 in-
nings.
Twins1, Padres 0
MINNEAPOLIS Scott
Baker struck out 10 over eight
dominant innings and Danny
Valencia homered to lift the
surging Minnesota Twins to a
win over the San Diego Padres.
Baker (5-4) allowed four hits
and walked one as the Twins
won for the sixth time in a row
and13th time in15 games. Matt
Capps pitched the ninth for his
11th save.
TimStauffer (2-5) was nearly
as good, allowing one run on six
hits with five strikeouts in sev-
en innings. But the punchless
Padres offense was no match for
Baker, and San Diego lost its
fourth straight and eighth in10
games.
Luke Hughes added two hits
for Minnesota.
Mets 6, Angels1
NEWYORKMike Pelfrey
pitched his first complete game
in nearly three years, Carlos
Beltran hit a mammoth home
run and the NewYork Mets
handed Dan Haren a rare beat-
ing in a victory over the Los
Angeles Angels.
National League batting
leader Jose Reyes sparked the
offense with his latest big game
fromthe leadoff spot and Jason
Bay showed more signs of
breaking out of his season-long
slump.
Pelfrey (4-5) gave up five hits
in his first win since May10 at
Colorado. He entered 0-2 in his
previous six outings, though he
pitched well in most of those.
Rangers 5, Braves 4
ATLANTAAdrian Beltre
drove in the go-ahead run with
an RBI single in the10th inning
and the Texas Rangers beat the
Atlanta Braves for a rare one-
run road win.
The Rangers were previously
1-11in one-run road games
before winning after blowing an
early 4-0 lead.
There was a rain delay of 2
hours, 16 minutes in the fifth
inning.
Ian Kinsler led off the10th
with a double off Scott Proctor
(1-1), who was pitching in his
third straight game. Kinsler
stayed at second on a groun-
dout by Elvis Andrus, who had
three hits. Proctor issued an
intentional walk to Josh Hamil-
ton before Beltre lined the
run-scoring single to center.
Nationals 4, Orioles 2
WASHINGTONMichael
Morse put Washington ahead
with a sixth-inning homer, Ryan
Zimmerman also connected,
and the Nationals beat the
Baltimore Orioles for their
eighth straight victory.
Playing in his fifth game since
being activated fromthe dis-
abled list, Zimmerman had two
hits, including a double that
ignited a three-run uprising in
the sixth. Washington is averag-
ing 7.4 runs since his return.
The Nationals winning
streak is their longest since an
eight-game run fromAug. 2-9,
2009.
Jordan Zimmerman (5-6)
gave up two runs and eight hits
in 61-3 innings to win a third
consecutive decision.
Orioles starter Brian Matusz
(1-2) absorbed his second
straight loss and left in the sixth
inning with cramping in his left
hamstring.

CLEVELANDCarlos
Carrasco took a no-hitter into
the sixth inning and won his
third straight start as the Cleve-
land Indians beat the Pittsburgh

and Corey Hart homered on
consecutive pitches in the first
inning to help the Milwaukee
Brewers spoil Jon Lesters bid
to become the majors first
10-game winner in a victory
over the Boston Red Sox.
Randy Wolf (5-4) battled
through seven tough innings
and George Kottaras also hit a
solo homer for Milwaukee,
which won for just the second
time in its last six games.

ending a string of four straight
no-decisions. John Axford got
three outs for his19th save.
Blue Jays 4, Reds 0
CINCINNATI Jose Molina
doubled and homered, and
Brandon Morrowbounced back
fromone of his worst starts,
leading the Toronto Blue Jays
to a victory that kept the Cincin-
nati Reds winless in interleague

WASHINGTON Now that
the knockout games are here,
the United States is ready to
put a disappointing CONCA-
CAF Gold Cup group stage be-
hind.
The U.S. lost to Panama and
came out of Group C in second
place, setting up a quarterfinal
match with Jamaica at RFK Sta-
dium today.
Panama will take on El Salva-
dor in the second match in the
quarterfinal doubleheader.
I think the team is still doing
well in the tournament, U.S.
captain Carlos Bocanegra said.
Our original goal was to get to
the knockout stages. OK, it
didnt come exactly as we want-
ed, we had the loss against Pan-
ama and everyone was disap-
pointed. But we gave ourselves
a great opportunity still in the
knockout stages and our ulti-
mate goal is to win this tourna-
ment.
The U.S. started the tourna-
ment beating Canada 2-0, then
came the 2-1 defeat to Panama
the first ever U.S. loss in
Gold Cup group play. The U.S.
clinched the quarterfinal berth
with a 1-0 win against Guade-
loupe.
I think we came through
group play feeling good we
were tested, that certain things
came to light, and now were
excited and ready to go, U.S.
coach Bob Bradley said.
Jamaica had no trouble earn-
ing its berth. The Reggae Boyz
have won all three of their
games in the tournament with-
out allowing a single goal.
The U.S. has been without
two key players as it has pre-
pared for the quarterfinal. Mid-
fielders Landon Donovan and
Clint Dempsey were excused
from the teams training ses-
sions in Washington to attend
their sisters weddings Dono-
van in California and Dempsey
in Texas. Both will fly into
Washington after the weddings
to be available for the match.
Bradley said he wasnt con-
cerned about the players ab-
sence. He expected to go over
film of Jamaica with the two
players today morning.
Well take care of everything
with Clint and Landon (today),
Bradley said.
The U.S. has won its last five
Gold Cup quarterfinal matches,
and has never lost to Jamaica,
holding a 9-0-8 record. The
teams last met in a friendly on
April 11, 2006, which the U.S.
won 1-0.
In the group stage we didnt
play anywhere near our best,
but weve always said we need
to keep getting better as the
tournament goes on, midfiel-
der Sacha Kljestan said. So the
quarterfinal right now is a step-
ping stone, hopefully to bigger
things. Bigger performances,
and bigger wins for the team.

The Associated Press
BOSTON Screaming fans
dressed in the black and gold of
the Boston Bruins smiled,
waved and stood on trees and
bus shelters as they watchedthe
NHL champions and the
Stanley Cup, of course roll
through city streets on a balmy,
breezy day.
And the players they adore
gave it right back.
Tim Thomas beamed. Zdeno
Chara pumped his fists. Patrice
Bergeron signaled to the mas-
sive crowd to shout even louder.
Then, as the nearly two-hour
rolling rally celebration of the
Bruins first title in 39 years
neared its end early Saturday af-
ternoon, AndrewFerence raised
one finger, then two, then three,
orchestrating a familiar chant.
Lets Go Bruins! the fans re-
sponded. Lets Go Bruins!
But theres no need for the
Bruins to go any further.
Theyve already arrived.
The long journey began in
Vermont in late September with
two days of training camp and
ended in Vancouver with a 4-0
victory Wednesday night in
Game 7 of the Stanley Cup fi-
nals.
In between, the Bruins start-
ed the season with two games in
Prague against the Phoenix
Coyotes losing then winning
on a shutout by Thomas and
grew into a team determined
enough to win three of its four
postseason series in seven
games and good enough to
knock off the Canucks, the
NHLs best team in the regular
season.
The Bruins trip to their sixth
championship got a big boost
from their fans, who stuck by
them all the way to Saturdays
celebration on a sunny day with
temperatures reaching the low
80s. Crowds were so deep on
the sidewalks that many fans
might not have been able to see
the players.
Police announced nine ar-
rests of people charged with,
among other things, Public
Drinking and Disorderly Con-
duct. Police commissioner Ed-
ward Davis said, exemplary fan
behavior was on full display
throughout the day and all
along the parade route.
In a 15-minute program out-
side the TD Garden before the
rally, Boston mayor Thomas
Menino thanked the Bruins for
a fabulous season.
Team president Cam Neely,
one of the greatest forwards in
club history but never a cham-
pion, said, Its finally our time.
How amazing is this?
Chara, the captain, then told
the fans, We couldnt have
done it without you, and
shared a conversation he had
with Neely.
I promised himwhen we win
a Cup I will hand it to him. So
here we go. Come on, Cam, he
said as Neely stepped forward,
smiled broadly and took the tro-
phy.
At one point, Bergeron and
rookie Brad Marchand, who
each scored two goals in Game
7, did a poor imitation of the rap
song, Black And Yellow.
Playoff MVP Thomas spoke
briefly to the crowd, holding the
Cup aloft the whole time.
You guys wanted it. We got it
and we want to share it with you
today, said the goalie, one of
the few Bruins still sporting a
playoff beard. Lets have some
fun.
Then players wearing
white hats and black T-shirts
proclaiming them Stanley Cup
champions and teamofficials
boarded 18 colorful duck boats,
tourist vehicles designed to
travel on land and water. This
day, they carried passengers
who excelled on ice.
We all love each other, said
first-line forward Nathan Hor-
ton, sidelined for the series with
a severe concussion early in
Game 3. We all care about each
other. We all play for each other.
Thats the way its been all year
andthats why we wonthe Cup.
Playmaking center Marc Sa-
vard, limited to 25 games this
season by the effects of a career-
threatening concussion, rode in
the same duck boat as Horton.
The possibility of playing
again after missing the playoffs
is really the furthest thing from
my mind right now, Savard
said. I just want to enjoy it here
and let the boys take the spot-
light here because they earned
it.
About 20 minutes into the
trip to Copley Square, a route of
about three miles from the are-
na where the Bruins were 3-0
against the Canucks in the fi-
nals, Thomas said, Its awe-
some tobe sharingit withevery-
body. This is the day you really
look forward to.
While Boston police no long-
er provide estimates, the size of
the crowd appeared to be larger
than all but the one that turned
out to celebrate the Red Sox
first championshipin86years in
2004.

EASTBOURNE, England
Janko Tipsarevic may miss Wim-
bledonafter slippingandinjuring
his groin during the Eastbourne
final Saturday.
Unseeded Andreas Seppi won
his first career title after Tipsa-
revic of Serbia was forced to re-
tire while trailing 7-6 (5), 3-6, 5-3.
Seppi is thefirst
Italian to win
an ATP title
since Filippo
Volandri won in
Palermo in
2006.
In the wom-
ens final, Ma-
rion Bartoli of
France warmed up for Wimble-
don with a 6-1, 4-6, 7-5 win over
Petra Kvitova of the Czech Re-
public.
The third-seeded Tipsarevic,
who is seeded 23rd at Wimble-
don, was injured in the third set
when down 3-4, 0-30 on serve, af-
ter repeatedly arguing with offi-
cials about the fading light.
After lengthy treatment, he
dropped his serve to fall behind
5-3 and retired after Seppi won
the first point of the next game.
Im taking an ultrasound now
but it doesnt look good, Tipsa-
revic said. I know matches are
played here until late, but that is
the case whenthere are noclouds
and you have enough light.
Its an absolute disgrace. ...
what happened today. At 4-3, 15-
all or love-30 when I slipped, I
asked the chair umpire or the ref-
eree, What else needs to happen
for you to postpone this match?
Andhewas just quiet. Hewas just
repeating like a parrot that we
have enough light, we have
enough light.
Tipsarevic and Seppi both
played their semifinals earlier
Saturday, after rain washed out
Fridays schedule.
In the final, Tipsarevic protest-
ed about fading light after the
first game of the third set, and
then dropped serve to fall behind
2-0. He continued to complain as
he lost the next two games, be-
fore rain forced the players from
the court. When play resumed
Tipsarevic won the next three
games before he fell.
Bartolis victory is her first title
since winning Stanford nearly
two years ago, and came after she
was a runner-up at Indian Wells
and Strasbourg this season.
Bartoli left the court early in
thethirdset for treatment of a left
hamstring injury.
Bartoli was not concerned
about her injury and was certain
to be fit for Wimbledon, where
she reached the final in 2007 and
is seeded ninth.
My muscle startedto get tight
and after the support I received
with the tape it was better and
now I have two days off so I am
definitely going to be OK for
Wimbledon, she said.
In the semis, Bartoli beat Aus-
tralian Sam Stosur 6-3, 6-1 and
Kvitova advanced when Daniela
Hantuchova retired with an ab-
dominal injury as Kvitova led 7-6
(9), 4-2.

Franca and Felisberta Da
Silva dispatched the Czech

seeded Marcio Araujo and Ri-
cardo Santos.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. Cal-
bert Cheaney is returning to Indi-
ana to relearnthe college game.
The Big Tens career scoring
leader was hired Saturday by
coach TomCrean as the Hoosiers
new director of basketball oper-
ations. Crean made the announce-
mentduringhisfather/sonbasket-
ball camp, ending several days of
speculation that one of the best
players in school history would be
back oncampus.
Calbert knows the standard
that it takes to be successful aca-
demically as a high-level student
athlete, and he knows what is ex-
pected to play at the NBA level,
Crean said in a statement. He is
excitedtolearnthebusinessof col-
lege basketball.
Cheaney replaces DrewAdams,
who was hired for the same posi-
tion by New Mexico coach Steve
Alford also a former Indiana
star.
For Crean, its another opportu-
nitytoreachintotheHoosiers rich
past. The Indiana coach has spent
three seasons trying to heal the
wounds left by the firing of Bob
Knight and later by Kelvin Samp-
sons NCAArecruiting infractions.
The fallout fromthe NCAAcase
guttedthe roster andforcedCrean
tostart histenurewithonlytwore-
turning players both walk-ons.
Crean still has not posted a win-
ning recordinthree seasons.
But heandothers havebeentry-
ing to fix the tattered program.
Photos of Knight now hang in As-
sembly Hall and the coach who
wonthreenational championships
and more than 600 games in Bloo-
mington has been inducted into
the schools hall of fame.
Crean also has reached out to
Knights former players in an at-
tempt to make thema bigger part
of the program. Hiring Cheaney is
the latest move.
My family and I believe that
this was the right time to begin a
career in college basketball and I
am especially looking forward to
playing a role in the growth of the
players at Indiana, Cheaney said.
Im very grateful to Coach Crean
for this opportunitytoreturntoIU
and I look forward to contributing
immediately inany way possible.
Cheaney finished his college ca-
reer with 2,613 points still the
Big Ten record and was named
the league and national player of
the year in 1993. In four seasons,
Cheaney ledthe Hoosiers toa105-
27 record and the 1992 Final Four
and made the All-America team
three times. The Evansville, Ind.,
nativeaveraged22.4pointsand6.2
rebounds as a senior.
He was taken with the No. 6
overall pick in the 93 NBA draft
and played the next 13 seasons
withfivedifferent teams: Washing-
ton, Boston, Denver, Utah and
Golden State. He averaged 9.5
points and 3.2 rebounds in 825 ca-
reer games. His best season came
in1994-95 when he averaged a ca-
reer-high 16.6 points with Wash-
ington.

some of the best coaches across
the country.
Lake-Lehman head coach
Tom Williams was thrilled to
host such a quality event in the
Black Knights gymnasium.
You like to try to have your
kids do what the best are doing,
said Williams. Having some-
body like Coach Cody here
that to me is the best. He has a
very organized and disciplined
approach.
I know I picked up a few
things as a coach.
Cody spent time at the end of
Wednesdays program talking to
the young wrestlers about steer-
ing clear of harmful substances -
a mantra his teams adhered to
during his successful eight-year
career at American.
Stay away from the alcohol
and drugs, said Cody, who set
in place the same policy for his
grapplers in Norman, Okla.
The standards we hold for
the kids are very high. We prom-
isedthemif they bought intoour
system, they would have some
The Sooners head coach, who
signed on with Oklahoma in
April shortly after leadingAmer-
ican to a fifth-place finish at the
NCAA championships this past
season, was impressed with the
quality of talent he saw at the
clinic and throughout the Keys-
tone State.
The quality of wrestling here
is just incredible, Cody said.
Even with the camp here, its
just amazingtome tosee the sol-
id basic skills even elementary
kids have.
The eight-week program is
open to wrestlers in kindergar-
ten through 12th grade. The in-
struction takes place from 5:30-
7:30 p.m. every Monday and
Wednesday through July 27.
The clinic is an excellent way
to receive exposure from some
of the most well-known coaches
on the national scene, according
to clinic founder Jack Davis.
Davis, who was an assistant
and head coach at Clarion Uni-
versity for 22 years, said the
quality of instruction at the clin-
ic is second-to-none.
There is not another camp in
the country that has the techni-
cians that were bringing in,
said Davis, who has helped run
many other wrestling clinics
since 1975. His son Scott won a
PIAA state championship in
2007 for Lake-Lehman.
I think it is great exposure for
the Wyoming Valley."
The list of coaches scheduled
to visit the camp during the re-
maining six weeks include: Cor-
nell head coach Rob Koll, whose
team was one of the top-three
teams in the country this past
season; Marylands Kerry
McCoy, a two-time Olympian
out of Penn State and the 2009
ACCCoach of the Year; and five-
time Pennsylvania Coach of the
Year Dave Crowell of Nazareth
High School to name a few.
Although the clinic started
two weeks ago, registration
forms are still being accepted.
For further information, contact
Jack Davis at 814-538-9034.
Davis, whose five-year stint as
Clarions head coach included
three top-15 finishes and 14 All-
Americans, loved how Cody
handled himself in front of the
wrestlers andthevaluehebrings
to the local community.
Mark Cody is a great techni-
cian and hes got a great name,
Davis said. Imtrying to expose
the Wyoming Valley kids to
degree of success, he said.
Fifteen-year-old Austin Harry,
who won a District 2 Class 2A
championship at Lake-Lehman
last season as a freshman, was at
the camp last year. The rising
sophomore liked Codys style of
coaching and the way he repre-
sented himself.
He knows what hes doing,
Harry said. He makes you re-
peat everything he says so you
remember it better. To have him
and some of the best coaches in
the country here is great.
Cody and Davis agree the
recruiting talent in the state is
remarkably high. But Davis said
there are some mechanics local
wrestlers need to address in or-
der to compete amongst the ve-
ry best.
The Eagles Way Wrestling
Camp can help, he said.
The talent is there, some of
the ingredients that go along
with it are missing, Davis said.
Thats why were having this
camp, so the kids can brush that
up.

Thats pretty much the tale of
the game for us, offensively, Tar
Heels coach Mike Fox said. Out
here, its how well you play from
the first pitch to the last and get-
ting big two-out hits.
And they got them and we
didnt.
Connor Harrell hit the first
CWS home run in the new TD
Ameritrade Park to break a sixth-

I think they buckled down, es-

just made good pitches and we
werent able to get timely hitting

Vanderbilt didnt act like the

North Carolinas Ben Bunting, right, reaches third base with a
triple against Vanderbilt third baseman Jason Esposito in the
ninth inning of a College World Series game in Omaha, Neb. Sixth-
seeded Vanderbilt defeated third-seeded North Carolina, 6-3.
Theyre the best team in the
league stat wise and that was all
Smitty, Yankees manager Dave
Miley said. He did a great job.
We couldnt askfor anymore than
what he gave.
Smith, who was signed by the
Yankees on June 13 while he was
pitching in the Independent
American Association for the
Grand Prairie Air Hogs, only
made one other appearance for
SWB this season and that was a 1
2/3-inning relief outing on June
14.
He only allowed one walk in
that brief outing.
On Saturday, a pair of walks
was all he allowed in the first 5
2/3 innings before Indians pros-
pect JasonKipnis linedasingleto
right for the Clippers first hit of
the game.
Smith walked former Yankee
Shelley Duncan in the first and
Luis Valbuena in the second, for
the only other blemishes on his
line, opposedto sevenstrikeouts.
He threw a total of 84 pitches, 57
for strikes, with his third differ-
ent team this season.
My philosophy is that it
doesnt matter where you pitch
or whos catching or hitting,
wherever I am my job is to exe-
cute the pitch, Smith said. Gus
(Molina) did a good job of calling
pitches so I really relied on him
tonight.
You try not to think about (a
no-hitter) but looking out there
at the scoreboard to see outs, you
see the goose egg up there you
cant not think about it.
Yankees right fielder Jordan
Parraz made a superb diving
catch in the fourth to rob Duncan
of a hit on a sinking line drive to
keepSmiths bidfor a no-hitter in-
tact.
ThenParraz (2-for-3, tworuns)
helpedout withthe bat inthe bot-
tomof the fourth when he ripped
the first pitch he saw from Jean-
mar Gomez over the left-field
wall for his third home run of the
season, a two-run liner that gave
SWB a 3-0 advantage.
Parrazs diving catch wasnt
the only highlight reel play for
the Yankees. In the top of the
eighth, Austin Krummade a sim-
ilar grabona loopingfly ball from
Paul Phillips.
The first thingRandy (Flores)
talked about when I got here was
that we got a pretty good de-
fense, Smith noted. So my
thought was let themhit it. Go in
there, throw some strikes and let
them hit it, and they did not dis-
appoint.
The Yankees added a run on a
groundout in the seventh against
Gomez, the reigning Internation-
al League Pitcher of the Week.
Last week, he only allowed two
runs in 13 innings. SWB struck
him for four runs in seven in-
nings. He whiffed seven and
didnt walk a batter.
Andrew Brackman, who is a
converted starter, closed out the
game for the Yankees. He struck
out three over the final two in-
nings.
Notes: The time of the game
was 2 hours, 18 minutes and the
announced attendance was 8,062
The Clippers were handed
their first loss on the road to a In-
ternational League North oppo-
nent, dropping their record to 6-1
The Yankees are 3-9 on Satur-
days and 2-4 at PNC Field on

week When Brackman walked
Jared Goedert in the eighth, that
snapped a streak of 18 straight

ers in the series.

Yankees third baseman Brandon Laird catches a pop fly in the
second inning to retire Columbus Clipper batter Jerad Head.
Julian Campenni of Wyom-
ing Area, who is headed to the
University of Connecticut,
started at left tackle for a Penn-
sylvania defense that kept the
teamin the game early by forc-
ing Ohio into missed field
goals to end the first two pos-
sessions.
Ohio soon started picking
the Pennsylvania defense apart
and, after scoring on its first
possession of the second half,
opened a 35-7 lead just 3:31 in-
to the third quarter on its
fourthtouchdownof at least 40
yards.
I had a great week with 33
great players, Campenni said.
Ill never forget it.
The game didnt go the way
we wanted, but we had fun and
made some great memories.
The win, its third straight,
gave Ohio a 10-9 lead in the se-
ries since the game for graduat-
ing high school football all-
stars returned to this format in
1993. Counting a series of
games in the 1970s, the states
are even at 12-12.
The teams appeared any-
thing but evenly matched Sat-
urday.
By the time Cincinnati
recruit AkiseTeaguescoredhis
third touchdown on a 40-yard
pass fromCardale Jones for the
35-7advantage, Ohiohada317-
106 advantage in total offense.
Ohios defense producedtwo
interceptions in the first half
and had five of its seven sacks
by the midway point in the
third quarter.
That defense may have hada
little extra help.
On the possession after
Teagues third touchdown,
Ohio had two straight sacks,
the second by linebacker Ste-
ven Daniels. When Daniels
came up with yet another sack
onthirddown, Ohio was penal-
ized for an illegal defense for
the secondof three times inthe
game where blitzes are prohib-
ited.
We made too many mis-
takes and they took advan-
tage, Pennsylvania coach Tim
Rimpfel said. A good team
will do that and, oh boy, did
they have some speed.
Ina game that featured20fu-
ture Big Ten players, Ohio ben-
efitted from the availability of
five Ohio State recruits. Jones
threwthreetouchdownpasses,
including a 54-yarder in the
second quarter and a 28-yarder
in the fourth quarter to future
teammate Devin Smith.
Pennsylvania had just two
Penn State players all-pur-
pose athlete Shawn Oakman
fromPenn Wood and defensive
lineman Jordan Kerner from
Fairview. Teague started the
scoring with touchdown runs
of 52 and 20 yards in the final
4:30 of the first quarter for a
14-0 Ohio lead.
Delaware Valleys Brandon
Clemons hit Jones in the back-
field, settingupaninterception
by Desimon Green, leading to

answered before halftime for a

WEST ALLIS, Wis. Like
many drivers who come from a
road course racing background,
Will Power had a fear factor to
overcome as he first learned
how to drive on ovals.
Since moving to Indy-style
racing in 2005, Power gradually
became comfortable with the
high speeds, close proximity to
walls and sustained G-forces in-
volved in oval track racing.
He isnt scared and thats
a little scary.
The thing that scares you is
you get immune to it, right?
Immune to the speed and how
dangerous it actually is, Power
said. It sort of becomes nor-
mal to you. Thats when youre
like, Oh, man, it was only a
year ago I was thinking this
was just stupidity and I
shouldnt even be doing it.
Today, Power isnt just sur-
viving on ovals hes thriving.
The Australians big break-
through came last weekend,
when he won at Texas Motor
Speedway for the first oval-
track victory of his career.
Power was the IndyCar Se-
ries best road course racer last
season, and was decent enough
on oval tracks to nearly win the
IndyCar championship. Even
marginal improvement on ovals
this season could put Power
over the top.
The Team Penske driver
comes into todays race at the
Milwaukee Mile with a 21-point
lead over Dario Franchitti, the
driver Power lost the title to at
the end of last season.
To me, I guess, it was a mat-
ter of time, Power said of win-
ning on an oval. Ive always
been knocking on the door
there, and everything came to-
gether at Texas.
Teammate Ryan Briscoe said
its a sign of Powers steady im-
provement.
I think if youre a good road
course driver, youll become a
good oval driver unless
youre scared of the speed,
Briscoe said. If you dont have
a problem with the fear, being
good on ovals comes with expe-
rience.
Penske Racing president Tim
Cindric said Power gradually
learned how to work with his
team on ovals, providing feed-
back to help his crew figure out
what adjustments can make the
car faster.
When he first came to us, he
was like, Hey, I dont really
know. Just give me what you
had last year and let me feel
it, Cindric said.
Cindric said Power really
didnt know what a car was
supposed to feel like on an oval
when he came to the team.
If youve been in a bad car
on an oval, its real hard (not)
to be pretty gun-shy about it,
Cindric said. He gained that
confidence last year, had some
good races, had some good race
cars. Then he understood what
it was going to take (to go)
from running top-five to win-
ning.
But fellow title contenders
will be watching closely to see
if Power can be as good on a
challenging short oval such as
Milwaukee, or Iowa next week-
end, as he was at Texas.
I never felt complete until I
had won a 1-mile oval race to
say, I won an oval race, Tony
Kanaan said. Because Texas,
so many things can happen
which are not up to our control.
This is a drivers track.
Power seems well-positioned
for another chance at the cham-
pionship, but isnt thinking
about it for now.
We led the whole year last
year and lost it in the last race,
Power said.

Will Power has a 21-point

than 10 laps remaining Satur-
day at Michigan International
Speedway.
Edwards, the Sprint Cup
points leader, had finished
second in three straight Na-
tionwide races since winning
at Dover in May, but he was
able to slip underneath Sten-
house and then cut in front of
him before holding on to win
by 1.669 seconds in the No. 60
Ford. It was his 33rd career
Nationwide victory.
With 15 to go, I didnt think
we were going to be able to
get him, Edwards said.
Edwards and Stenhouse
gave Roush Fenway Racing a
1-2 finish.
Kyle Busch was third, fol-
lowed by pole-sitter Paul Me-
nard.
Edwards isnt eligible to
earn Nationwide points. Reed
Sorenson, the points leader
entering the race, finished
11th following an early pass-
through penalty for a commit-
ment-line violation.
Stenhouse now leads the se-
ries standings. Elliott Sadler,
eighth Saturday, is second.
Sorenson dropped to third.
Mark Martin, seeking his
50th Nationwide win, was the
leader coming out of the third
and final caution on the 100th
of 125 laps. Edwards and
Busch quickly passed him, but
Stenhouse moved to the lead
not long after that.
Stenhouse led laps 104-116,
but Edwards remained patient
and denied Stenhouse what
would have been his second
win of the year.
It was more work than I
thought it would be, Edwards
said. I really had to drive
hard. He is really getting good
at this, and hes going to be
tough.
Busch, trying to match Mar-
tins mark of 49 victories, had
to settle for outlasting Me-
nard in a hard-fought race for
third. Although Menard had
won the pole earlier in the
day, he led for only one lap.
Edwards led for 62 laps, and
Stenhouse led for 38.
Menard was the beneficiary
of the final caution, which be-
gan on the 95th lap. Martin ar-
rived for a pit stop moments
before the yellow flag and was
able to move to the front when
the leaders went for pit stops
during the caution.
After his victory, Edwards
did his usual back flip, then
went running into the stands
to celebrate. He finished sec-
ond in a Nationwide race at
MIS last August and won one
in 2008. He also has two
Sprint Cup wins at this venue.
Brad Keselowski, who
edged Edwards to win in Mi-
chigan last year, led for 11
laps, the most of anyone be-
sides Edwards and Stenhouse.
Keselowski, however, fell back
after a pass-through penalty
for an uncontrolled tire. He
finished ninth.

Results
BROOKLYN, Mich. Anoth-
er race, another pole for Kurt
Busch. This is a drill hes happyto
get used to.
To be onthe pole three weeks,
what it does there are so many
benefits behind the scenes,
Busch said. Picking your pit se-
lection first, having track posi-
tion right away in the race. ... You
could have a slow pit crew, and
you have that first pit box, thats
going to help you get out in front
of guys throughout the day.
Busch won his third consecu-
tive pole in the NASCAR Sprint
Cup series, finishing first in qual-
ifying Saturday at Michigan In-
ternational Speedway with a lap
of 188.699 miles per hour. Hes
the first driver to win three
straight poles since Brian Vickers
in 2009, and two qualifying ses-
sions were canceled during that
streak. The last person to win
three poles in three races was
Ryan Newman in 2007.
Busch is sixth in the points
standings and has finished in the
top 10 three straight races, in-
cluding a second-place showing
last weekendat Pocono Raceway.
He has not won in 2011, but hes
enjoyed better results after tak-
ing his Penske Racing team to
task earlier this season.
Im thankful that everybody
was able to pull together and un-
derstand that we should just try
something different, he said.
Its great to be able to see the re-
sults popupsosoon. I hadnoidea
that we were right around the
corner.
Busch was forced to a backup
car last weekend after damaging
his No. 22 Dodge in practice.
Theres been less drama this time
around as he prepares for todays
400-mile race.
This was a conventional
weekend, so to speak, he said.
Busch was the pole-sitter in
Michigan last June as well, and
he finished third.
David Reutimann (188.684
mph) was second in qualifying,
and Matt Kenseth (188.620) was
third. Vickers, who was fourth,
was the leader at one point but
Kenseth, Busch and Reutimann
all posted faster laps toward the
end.
Right there at the end a big
cloud came over and it cooled
down quite a bit, Vickers said.
Imsure it helpedthose guys and
they ran pretty good, too.
Vickers is 26th in the stand-
ings. He missed the last 25 races
of last season after he was diag-
nosed in May with a hole in his
heart and blood clots down his
left leg. Heart surgery in July re-
paired the hole but also showed
he was suffering from May-Thur-
ners syndrome, which caused the
clots. He hadsurgery for the clots
the next day.
Ive felt great (since the proce-
dure), Vickers said. Every-
things been great.
Kenseth, who is seventh in the
points standings, will start near
the front today, and thats not
necessarily a familiar feeling.
Kensethqualifiedinthe top10for
only the fourth time this season,
and he has a hard time relating to
Busch, withhis threeconsecutive
poles.
I dont think Ive had three
poles in 12 years, said Kenseth,
whowononlyhis fifthcareer pole
in Las Vegas in March.
Points leader Carl Edwards
was 23rd. Jeff Gordon, comingoff
a win at Pocono, was 31st. New-
man, who set the tracks qualify-
ing record in 2005 at 194.232
mph, was 13th this time around.

NEW YORK Good times, on the
race course and off, are the essence of
Front Runners New York, a club repre-
sentinghundreds of gayandlesbianrun-
ners in the nations biggest city.
Yet thats only part of its story.
Over three decades, the club has
served as a comfort zone and support
group for many of its members as they
coped with personal challenges. It em-
braces apublic-servicemissionforgedin
the 1980s when many members and
their friends died from AIDS.
No one knewwhat it was, howit was
transmittedthere was a lot of fear out
there, recalled Steve Gerben, who be-
gan a four-year stint as club president in
1981 just before the first AIDS cases in
the U.S. were reported.
Front Runners NewYorkhadabout 35
members when Gerben took the helm.
It heldits first Pride Runin1982, attract-
ing about 400 entrants.
The scene inCentral Park will be very
different Saturday for the 30th Pride
Run. Arecord field of more than 5,000 is
expected for the 5-mile race, with enter-
tainment, a raffle and an after-party on
tap.
Proceeds fromthe event will go to the
It Gets Better Project, launched last
year in response to some highly publi-
cized suicides by gay teenagers. Several
club members appeared in a video for
the national project, which seeks to con-
vey messages of hope to counter the de-
spair of bullied or rejected teens.
Front Runners current president,
Megan Jenkins, said the choice of bene-
ficiary was fitting because many club
members ran the Pride Run as their
first step out of the closet.
Longtime member Patrick Guilfoyle
is among that group the club was a
pivotal catalyst for his decision to come
out in the 1980s.
Now 52, Guilfoyle grew up in upstate
New York, ran track in high school and
college, and was still in the closet when
he moved to New York City in 1980.
The city was a little overwhelming,
he said. I found myself living a lie.
He had a four-year relationship with a
fellow member of a Brooklyn running
club, but his partner drowned in 1986
while trying to rescue a suicidal person
whod jumped off a pier. As Guilfoyle
struggled afterward to explain the rela-
tionship, he decidedit was time tocome
out and he did so in phases, starting
with friends and family.
Hed seen Front Runners members
competing at some previous races
admiring them for their confidence but
too embarrassed to join the club him-
self. But with his decision to come out,
he went ahead and entered some of
Front Runners events and formally
joined the club in 1990.
It was really great, he said. For the
first time, I had the feeling that this is a
community. People were really support-
ive as friends, whichwas veryimportant
to me at that point in my life.
Guilfoyle established himself as one
of the clubs strongest runners, record-
ing numerous sub-3-hour marathons,
but the big bonus of membership was
still to come.
In 2001, he fell in love with a fellow
member, Canadian-born John Fraser.
The relationship blossomed, and they
married last year in Ontario.
Club all about
supporting
its runners
Front Runners N.Y. provides racing
competition and emotional comfort
for gay and lesbian runners.
By DAVID CRARY
AP National Writer
Back in her heyday, Gail Dev-
ers stood out almost as much for
her flashy fingernails as her daz-
zling finishes.
Those brightly colored, long
and looping nails were eye-catch-
ing, just like the performances of
the American women in the 100
meters at that time.
Between Devers, Florence
Griffith-Joyner and Evelyn Ash-
ford, along with Marion Jones,
wholater admittedtodoping, the
U.S. governed tracks signature
event for nearly two decades.
That supremacy has slipped.
These days, the balance of
power has shifted to Jamaica,
leaving the Americans to play
catch-up. The small Caribbeanis-
land is producing some big-time
sprinters who have taken center
stage at tracks premier events.
And unlike mens sprinting
with Usain Bolt, no one runner is
head and shoulders above the
rest.
Sure, Shelly-Ann Fraser-Pryce
won the 100 at the 2008 Beijing
Olympics, leading Jamaicas
sweep of the medals, and fol-
lowed that up by taking gold at
worlds the next season.
But a fleet of fast Jamaicans
can step up at any given race.
When top Jamaican sprinters
such as Veronica Campbell-
Brown, Sherone Simpson, Ker-
ron Stewart and Fraser-Pryce
step into the blocks at worlds in
Daegu, South Korea, this sum-
mer, they, not the Americans,
will be the favorites.
In Devers opinion, this role re-
versal is just a trend.
When Devers was first coming
up, it was the Americans chasing
the Europeans and Russians,
with many in track circles believ-
ing that group of sprinters would
never be caught.
The U.S. women eventually
tracked them down and went on
to capture five straight Olympic
100-meter gold medals from1984
to 2000, including one in Sydney
that Jones surrendered because
of doping.
The Jamaicans have simply
figured it out right now, got tired
of being the bridesmaid, wanted
tobe the bride, saidDevers, who
ran in an epic 100 against Jamai-
cas Merlene Ottey at the 96
Summer Games in Atlanta, win-
ning in a tight finish. Everyone
has their season.
With the 2012 London Games
looming on the horizon, the
Americans are attempting to
wrestle the dominance back.
Newly named Olympic track
coach Amy Deem doesnt think
her squad is far behind the Jamai-
cans, especially with a blend of
veterans such as Carmelita Jeter
and up-and-comers like Alexan-
dria Anderson, the 2009 NCAA
champion in the 100.
The American100-meter hope-
fuls will assemble at the U.S.
championships that begin Thurs-
day in Eugene, Ore., to earn a
place at worlds and the right to
face the formidable Jamaicans.
I dont think anybody in the
100 is significantly better, Deem
said. From what Ive seen, any-
body is beatable in that race.
Thats the thing: There really is
no Bolt-like figure, someone
whos running away from the
field. Despite winning at the
Olympics and worlds, Fraser-
Pryce isnt shattering world
marks like her fellow Jamaican.
In fact, its Jeter whos making
a run at the top marks. She has
the fastest time of this era, clock-
ing 10.64 seconds in 2009 to be-
come the second-fastest woman
in the history of the100. Only the
late Griffith-Joyner ran faster
(10.49).
To Jeter, this isnt so much a ri-
valry with the Jamaicans as the
spark to sprint even faster.
Its very good for the sport; its
very good for womens sprints
and I hope it continues to bring
more financial and media and TV
and everything to the womens
sprints, Jeter said. Were lack-
ing a little bit because everyone
always wants to see the men, but
were running fast and just as
hard.
The 24-year-old Fraser-Pryce,
comingoff asix-monthbanfor us-
ing the painkiller oxycodone
when she had a toothache, is ea-
ger to establish herself again and
defend her title at worlds. Before
her, Campbell-Brown captured
the 100 crown at worlds in 07.
Weve always had Jamaicans
doing great things, but nowwere
gettingrecognized, Fraser-Pryce
said. Its long overdue.
Bolt, for one, isnt surprised by
his countrys rise in sprinting,
whether its onthe mens or wom-
ens side.Track is simply woven
into the fabric of the island.
Jamaica is sprinting we do
a lot of trackandfieldhere. ... Yes,
there is cricket and football, but
themajorityof Jamaicans want to
do track and field.
The U.S. has shown a resur-
gence this spring. Marshevet
Myers won at the Adidas Grand
Prix last weekend in New York
against an abbreviated field.
The week before, Jeter cap-
tured the Prefontaine Classic in
10.70, a time that leads the world
this season, while Myers finished
second, holding off Jamaicans
Stewart, Fraser-Pryce and Simp-
son.
But its early and hardly any-
thing can be read into the results
at this point.
Theres also this: At the Penn
Relays in late April, the Ameri-
cans toppled Jamaica in the 400
relay with not one but two differ-
ent squads.
That helps withconfidence, es-
pecially since the Americans
have struggled with getting the
baton around the track in recent
seasons.

AND
ONLY.
Meet David Nieman.
An automotive industry veteran, David joined The Times
Leader automotive advertising sales group six years ago
to combine his passion for cars with the dynamic media
environment. He adds, the warm, upbeat, community-
oriented culture is a bonus. David says hes proud of
the full-service offerings the company provides. We
are now a comprehensive media consulting company
in print and digital and we can reach markets that the
competition cannot.
Two simple words at the end of
a June 7 tweet said it all: Sere-
nas back!
And Venus is, too.
Yes, as Serena Williams an-
nounced to the world less than
two weeks ago, the most success-
ful tennis-playing siblings in his-
tory are returning from lengthy
layoffs right on time for Wimble-
don, where they just so happento
have won nine of the past 11 sin-
gles championships.
For Serena, it will be her first
Grand Slam tournament and
only second event since she
took home a second consecutive
title fromthe All England Club in
July2010. Her nearlyyearlongab-
sence resulted from a series of
health issues, including two foot
operations and blood clots in her
lungs, that she said left her de-
pressed and on my deathbed.
Venus, meanwhile, was sidelined
by a hip injury fromJanuary until
June.
When the grass-court Grand
Slam tournament begins Mon-
day, all eyes will be on them.
I feel like weve beenona simi-
lar road together. Her road hasnt
been as arduous or as long as
mine, but I knowwhat shes been
through coming back, Serena
said at a tuneup tournament this
week in Eastbourne, England.
Weve been really enjoying our
time just getting back together
and practicing next to her and
looking over and seeing her play
so well. Im like, OK, Ive got to
do better.
Thereare, tobesure, other plot
lines worth tracking during the
fortnight.
Among them: Can Roger Fe-
derer make a real runat a seventh
Wimbledon title? Can Rafael Na-
dal extend his recent excellence
tofive titles ina spanof sixGrand
Slam tournaments? Can Novak
Djokovic recover from the end of
his 43-match winning streak to
win a major title other than the
Australian Open? Can Andy Mur-
ray finally and mercifully
put an end to the locals 75-year
wait for a British male champion
at the All England Club? Might
No. 1-ranked Caroline Wozniacki
win her first Grand Slam title?
Could Chinas Li Na win her sec-
ondina row? Will Maria Sharapo-
va end her 3
1
2-year major
drought?
But the biggest curiosity, at
least at the outset, is: How will
the Williams sisters do?
Part of the interest stems from
wondering how much longer
theyll be around. Venus turned
31 on Friday; Serena will be 30 in
September.
Whenever they enter a Grand
Slam tournament, its double the
excitement and double the in-
trigue, I think, that they bring to
the sport. They just bring a differ-
ent level of tennis also, as far as
the power andthe emotional con-
tent, said ESPN2 analyst Chris
Evert, who won18 GrandSlamti-
tles.
It would be monumental in
my mind if Serena pulled off a
win, Evert added. I personally
dont knowhowits humanly pos-
sible for someone to take a year
off like that and have gone
through what shes been through
physically with her ailments and
... it wouldalmost shockme if she
did. But knowing Serena and the
way shes come back before, you
can never count her out.
Evert who said she never
was away from the tour longer
than four months is one of on-
ly five women in tennis history
who have won more major cham-
pionships than Serenas 13. The
others are Margaret Court (24),
Steffi Graf (22), Helen Wills
Moody (19) and Martina Navrati-
lova (18). Among active players,
of course, Serena ranks No. 1, fol-
lowed by Venus with seven.
No one else in this years Wim-
bledon womens field has more
than three Grand Slam titles
(Kim Clijsters has four, but she
pulled out with a foot injury).
Indeed, its remarkable to ex-
amine the measurable ways in
which Serena and Venus have
dominated womens tennis, in
general and the All England
Club, in particular across the
years. Thats why Serena is seed-
ed No. 7 at Wimbledon, despite
being ranked 26th; Venus is seed-
ed 23rd, despite being ranked
33rd.
Not only has Venus won five ti-
tles at Wimbledon, and Serena
four, since 2000, but theyve also
produced four all-in-the-family fi-
nals there in that span. Theyve
played in a total of eight all-Wil-
liams Grand Slam championship
matches, with Serena holding a
6-2 edge.
At Wimbledon, Venus is 68-9,
Serena 57-7. No one else in the
2011 draw has more than 27
match wins there.
Overall, Serena has been to 16
major finals, Venus 14. No one
elseinthedrawhas reachedmore
than four.
As seven-time major champion
John McEnroe put it: I wouldnt
minimize their chances.
Hey, at least one British book-
maker installed Serena as a 3-1fa-
vorite to win Wimbledon.
The interest generated by the
sisters rise to the top of their
sport is widely pointed to as the
reason for the U.S. Opens deci-
sion to move its womens final to
prime time in 2001. Venus beat
Serena that year for the title, and
nearly 23 million viewers tuned
in to the CBS broadcast, giving
their match the largest TV audi-
ence of any program that night,
including a game between tradi-
tional college football powers
Notre Dame and Nebraska.
The last major tournament,
the French Open, was the first
Grand Slam since 2003 without
Serena or Venus and chaos
reigned. Its the only French
Open in history where none of
the topthree seededwomenreac-
hed the quarterfinals, and it left
some looking forward to when
the sisters would pick up their
rackets again.
Im sure when they come
back, theyll come back ready.
Thats how they do it. Tennis has
been pretty spoiled by their suc-
cess and theyre pretty special,
two special sisters, top-10 U.S.
man Mardy Fish said in Paris.
And when theyre not around,
you can feel it. You can feel at a
Grand Slam when theyre not
here, and so I think everyones
hoping that theyll be back, bet-
ter than ever, soon.
Serena lost in the second
round at Eastbourne, a three-set
struggle against the woman she
beat in last years Wimbledon fi-
nal, Vera Zvonareva. Venus lasted
one round longer.
Theyre not merely happy to be
back, though.
They want to contend for more
titles.
I always believe in myself
when I go on the court, Venus
said. And Im not just here to
look good on the court; Im here
to win every match Im in.
Spotlight on Williams sisters return after injuries

championship trophy, after defeating her sister Venus, who holds
the runners-up trophy, in the womens singles final on Centre
Court at Wimbledon.
WIMBLEDON, England
For all that Maria Sharapova
already has accomplished in
tennis, a title in a Grand
Slam tournament now would
be more gratifying than
those from the past.
If I do achieve that if
its here, if its somewhere
else I think it would be
my biggest achievement in
my career, she said Sat-
urday at Wimbledon, where
play begins Monday.
Sharapovas most recent
major title came at the Aus-
tralian Open in January
2008. In October of that
year, she needed surgery on
her right, racket-swinging
shoulder a rather impor-
tant part of a tennis players
body, it seems safe to say
and she was sidelined for
the better part of 10
months.
Ive said it since I came
back from my injury. I said
that if I could win another
Grand Slam, it would mean
more than the previous ones
that I have. ... All of a sud-
den, one day, it was kind of
taken away from you, Sha-
rapova said.
You kind of have to step
back and look at things from
a different angle, she said
of her time away from the
game. And then when you
get back there, you basically
start from zero. You try to
get yourself to a level where
you can compete with the
top players, beating them
day in, day out. Yeah, its a
long process.
She won her first Grand
Slam championship at the
All England Club in 2004,
when she was all of 17. Her
second came two years later
at the U.S. Open, followed
by her victory in Australia.
Sharapova then went more
than three years without
making it back to the semi-
finals at any major tourna-
ment until getting that far
at the French Open this
month.
That proved to her and
to everyone else that
Sharapova, who briefly was
No. 1 in the WTA rankings,
is still capable of contending
for tennis top prizes.
Shes seeded fifth at Wim-
bledon, and will play 2007
U.S. Open semifinalist Anna
Chakvetadze of Russia in
the first round.
At the end of the day,
you really just do this for
yourself, Sharapova said.
Its really about your com-
mitment and your drive;
whether you want it or not.
You can have as many posi-
tive words, and its really
helpful and beneficial, but if
you wake up and you dont
want it, then youre never
going to achieve anything.
COME ON, MOM!
French Open champion Li
Na might need to explain to
her family how significant it
is to win a Grand Slam tour-
nament.
After becoming the first
Chinese player to win a
major singles title two
weeks ago, Li received a
text message from her moth-
er. A congratulatory note?
Nope. Mom just wanted to
know when her daughter
would get a chance to come
home.
I say, After Wimbledon.
And then she never (wrote)
me back again, so ... , Li
said Saturday.
Li added that she thinks
her mother knows she won
the French Open, but clar-
ified: I dont know if even
she (knows) how big (the)
tournament is. I didnt ask
her.
Ask other players on the
womens tour, though, and
theyll be able to answer
just fine.
Top-ranked Caroline Woz-
niacki, still searching for
her first Grand Slam cham-
pionship, said Lis victory is
good for the sport.
Im sure that a lot of
young girls and boys in Chi-
na now also want to play
tennis because they want to
play like Li Na, Wozniacki
said. Its great for tennis
that we can have it even
bigger as a sport than it is
now.
KINGS 50th
Billie Jean King will be at
Wimbledon for the 50th
consecutive year as player
or spectator. The 67-year-old
King owns a total of 20
Wimbledon titles, a record
she shares with Martina
Navratilova.
It feels like my second
home, said King, who won
six singles, 10 doubles and
four mixed doubles cham-
pionships at the All England
Club.
I loved that Centre Court
the first time I went out
there, she added. Its love-
ly. The people are nice.
King earned her first
Wimbledon title in 1961 at
age 17, teaming with 18-
year-old Karen Hantze.
Kings last trophy at the All
England Club came in dou-
bles in 1979 paired with
Navratilova.
Last year, on Court 16,
King hit her first tennis
balls after having double-
knee replacement surgery.
I hit about two or three
and then got off the court,
because I didnt have all
white on, and I really
shouldnt have been out
there, King said. But I did
it.

DOE LICENSE APPLICATIONS
The Pennsylvania Game Commission will
begin accepting antlerless deer license
applications from resident hunters starting
Monday, July 11; and from nonresidents
beginning Monday, July 25.
For the 2011-12 license year, antlerless deer
license fees are the same as they have
been since 1999, except for the 70-cent
transaction fee attached to the purchase
of each license and permit, which is paid
directly to Active Outdoors, the Nashville-
based company that runs Pennsylvania
Automated License System (PALS). This
transaction fee means that residents will
need to write checks made payable to
County Treasurer for $6.70, and nonresi-
dents for $26.70.
By state law, antlerless deer licenses will
continue to be sold only by county treasur-
ers, so hunters will need to prepare and
mail separate applications for antlerless
deer licenses. A list of the mailing address-
es for the 65 county treasurers that issue
antlerless deer licenses is included in the
2011-12 Digest, which is provided to each
license buyer.
A listing of antlerless licenses allocated by
WMU, as well as the remaining allocation,
can be viewed on the Game Commissions
website (www.pgc.state.pa.us), by clicking
on Doe License Update in the Quick
Clicks box in the right-hand column of the
homepage.
Under the 2011 timeline, residents will apply
for regular antlerless deer licenses on July
11; nonresidents will apply for regular an-
tlerless deer licenses on July 25. After this,
residents and nonresidents will apply for
the first round of unsold antlerless deer
licenses on Aug. 1, and residents and non-
residents will apply for the second round
of unsold antlerless deer licenses on Aug.
15.
County treasurers will have to mail regular
and first round of unsold antlerless deer
licenses no later than Sept. 12, and second
round of unsold antlerless deer licenses no
later than Sept. 26.
Hunters may file harvest reports online for
antlered and antlerless deer, as well as fall
turkey, spring gobbler, bobcat, fisher and
Deer Management Assistance Program
(DMAP) permits through the agencys
website (www.pgc.state.pa.us).
Additionally, hunters can call the agencys
toll-free telephone reporting system to file
a harvest report. The Interactive Voice
Response (IVR) harvest reporting system
telephone number is 1-855-PAHUNT1 (1-
855-724-8681).
Pre-paid postage report cards still are avail-
able in the digest, but the agency is encou-
raging hunters to report either online or
through the telephone system to improve
accuracy of data entry, and to save on the
cost of postage and data entry.
NEWHUNTING OPTION FOR YOUTH
The General Assembly last week approved a
bill that would allow for one antlerless
deer license per license year to be trans-
ferred to youth participating in the Men-
tored Youth Hunting Program.
Senate Bill 274, sponsored by Senate Game
and Fisheries Committee Chairman Ri-
chard Alloway II, was unanimously ap-
proved by the Senate on May 2, and was
unanimously approved in the House on
June 15. The bill will be sent to Gov. Tom
Corbetts desk to await his action.
We salute Sen. Alloway for championing this
bill, as well as House Game and Fisheries
Committee Chairman John Evans for
guiding this measure through the House,
said Carl G. Roe, Game Commission exec-
utive director. This new opportunity will
expand an already popular program, which
was created by legislation authored by
Sen. Robert D. Robbins, back in 2006.
In anticipation of enactment of this bill, the
Pennsylvania Board of Game Commission-
ers, on April 12, took the first regulatory
step toward allowing an adult mentor to
transfer an antlerless deer license to a
Mentored Youth Hunting Program partici-
pant. If the bill is signed by Corbett before
the end of the board meeting on June 28,
the board is positioned to final action on
the regulatory change so that it can take
effect for the upcoming 2011-12 deer sea-
sons.
At its October meeting, the board unani-
mously approved a resolution, introduced
by Game Commissioner Jay Delaney, to
support legislative efforts to allow for
adult mentors to transfer one antlerless
deer license or permit to a youth under the
age of 12 participating in the MYHP.
The regulations require that the mentor-to-
mentored youth ratio be one-to-one, and
that the pair possesses only one sporting
arm when hunting. While moving, the
sporting arm must be carried by the men-
tor. When the pair reaches a stationary
hunting location, the youth may take
possession of the sporting arm, but must
remain within arms length of the adult
mentor at all times while in possession of
the sporting arm.
Legal species presently approved for the
MYHP are squirrels, groundhogs, coyote,
antlered deer and spring gobbler.
All youth participating in the MYHP must
obtain a permit through the Game Com-
missions Pennsylvania Automated License
System (PALS), which costs $2.70. Of that
fee, one dollar goes to the Game Commis-
sion, one dollar goes to the issuing agent
who processes the permit application, and
70 cents goes to the company managing
PALS.
NOT ES
I
ts not something you hear about
everyday.
Rabid beavers attacking people.
Thats exactly whats been happening
in the southeastern part of the state.
Rabid beavers attacked, people were
bitten and each incident seems pretty
horrific for those involved.
It all began in April when a local
angler fishing a Chester County stream
heard a splash and saw a beaver swim-
ming toward him. The beaver bit the
angler on the back of the leg and once
more on the hand as the fisherman
struggled to drown the animal.
A test on the carcass confirmed the
beaver had rabies.
Earlier this month, in a park in
northeast Philadelphia, three people
were bitten by a rabid beaver. A hus-
band and wife fishing in the park were
the first victims. A large beaver bit the
womans leg and subsequently bit the
husband in both arms and his chest as
he assisted his wife.
The next day, a child was bitten by a
beaver in the same area, and it seemed
a serious threat was emerging.
Later that day, however, a park rang-
er captured a beaver 500 yards from
where the child was bitten. A Penn-
sylvania Game Commission Wildlife
Conservation Officer euthanized the
animal and the next day test results
came back positive for rabies.
Any animal with rabies isnt a good
thing. But a rabid beaver? Thats down-
right scary.
Equipped with long incisors an-
chored in a muscular head the size of a
brick, a beaver can easily gnaw through
the trunk of a tree.
Imagine what it could do to an arm
or a leg.
Obviously, beavers arent the only
wildlife that are infected with rabies.
According to the state Health Depart-
ment, between 350 and 500 animals
test positive for the virus each year.
Most of them are raccoons, followed by
skunks, cats, bats and foxes no sur-
prises there.
So how did the beavers in the south-
east get rabies?
PGC spokesman Jerry Feaser said
the beavers were most likely bitten by
another animal that was infected, such
as a raccoon.
Philadelphia does have raccoon
issues, Feaser said, referring to the
abundant population in the area.
It makes sense.
Raccoons frequent ponds and
streams searching for food. Im sure
they cross paths with beavers quite a
bit. Perhaps a rabid raccoon was nosing
around the beavers hut or dam when a
confrontation occurred, resulting in a
few bites.
Its a bit odd that a couple of beavers
tested positive for rabies, but it doesnt
mean there is a statewide epidemic.
Still, the incidents speak volumes
about the importance of trapping when
it comes to managing wildlife and
limiting disease outbreaks.
According to the PGCs most recent
furtaker survey in 2008, hunters and
trappers harvested an estimated
142,808 raccoons, more than 65,000
foxes and 12,331 skunks.
It makes one wonder how many
more rabies cases we would have each
year if it werent for hunting and trap-
ping.
In the case of the Philadelphia bea-
vers, trapping would be difficult due to
the 150-yard safety zone requirement.
There is a bill (HB1057) that would
reduce the safety zone to 50 yards for
submerged sets, which are commonly
used for beaver and can be set for rac-
coons as well.
If the bill passes, it will allow trap-
pers to make their sets in more urban
areas, remove excess furbearer pop-
ulations and further control the spread
of rabies and other diseases.
Thats the best way to keep furbearer
populations healthy and keep attacks
from rabid beavers as something you
dont hear about everyday.

Potential for rabies
can strike a wide
variety of species
TomVenesky covers the outdoors for The
Times Leader. Reach him at tvenesky@time-
sleader.com.
RichWaltonwas huntingnear White
Haven when two deputy Wildlife Con-
servation Officers stopped him for a
routine hunting license check.
As he talked with the deputies, Wal-
tonaskedabout becomingone himself.
The job was appealing. At the time
Walton wanted a career in lawenforce-
ment and becoming a deputy WCO
gave him that along with combining
his love of the outdoors.
It really appealed to me, Walton
said.
And it still does today, almost 50
years later.
OnJuly1, Walton, 70, will retire after
reaching the maximum age a deputy
can serve in law enforcement deputy
WCOs must retire on July 1 following
their 70th birthday.
Waltons 47 years as a deputy WCO
are the third-longest tenure in Pennsyl-
vania Game Commission history. Two
other deputies put in48and49years to
top the list.
If it was up to Walton, he would sur-
pass the 50-year mark and more.
I wouldkeepgoingif I didnt have to
retire, theHanover Townshipresident
said. The longer I was a deputy, the
more I liked it.
That included working in the field
assisting other WCOs or taking calls at
the PGCs Northeast Region Office in
Dallas.
Both parts of the job put Walton in
some interesting situations during his
47 years be it day or night.
Walton is constantly tuned in to his
police radio while at home. Afewyears
ago a call came over from the Plains
Township police at 1 a.m. Walton lis-
tened as the officers reported investi-
gating a suspicious vehicle with a laun-
dry basket in the backseat filled with
deer parts.
Despite the late hour, when Walton
heard about the deer parts he didnt
think twice about responding to the
call.
It led to what Walton said is one of
the most satisfying arrests of his ca-
reer.
When I got there the Plains police
found two individuals in the car and
blood was leaking out of the basket all
over the inside. It was a mess, Walton
said. It turns out thesetwoindividuals
shot two deer on the Plains Flats and
another near Bald Mountain. All three
were doe and they took them home,
butchered themand were looking for a
place to dump the scraps when the po-
lice found them.
The pair of poachers were hit with
$3,000 in fines, Walton said.
Even in the region office helping out
as a dispatcher, Walton still found him-
self handling a few unique situations.
Topping the list, he said, is the call
about a bear that stole a bike off some-
ones front porch in Carbon County.
The caller said the bear dragged his
mountain bike off his porch and into
the nearby woods, Walton said. I
asked him if there was anything con-
nected to the bike that would attract
the bear, andthe caller saidit was prob-
ably the bag of Hershey Kisses that
were inside the saddle bag.
Walton was appointed as a deputy
WCO on April 21, 1964 while he bal-
anced a full-time job as a reporter with
the Times Leader andWilkes-Barre Re-
cord. Walton did work full-time with
the PGC in the Communications/Dis-
patch Center, retiring in 2004. Still, he
continued to maintain his deputy
WCOpost, reaching 25 years of service
in 1989.
During his nearly 50 years as a depu-
ty, Walton has worked with10 different
supervising WCOs.
His most recent supervising WCOis
Gerald Kapral, who covers part of Lu-
zerne County.
Kapral said Waltons dedication to
the job and knowledge are irreplacea-
ble.
He was never just a deputy inname,
he was very active init the entire time,
Kapral said. Richs passionfor protect-
ing the game lands and wildlife re-
source is unmatched. No matter what
he was assigned to do, you knew he
could handle it and do it right.
Perhaps the most difficult task that
Walton will face is yet to come retir-
ing on July 1.
Ill really miss it. Ive done it so long
that I know Ill constantly be watching
for violations and reporting anything I
see, Walton said. Its like second na-
ture and its in my blood.
Whether its patrolling during hunt-
ing season, instructing hunter educa-
tion courses or assisting on poaching
investigations, Walton will miss pro-
tecting the outdoors that he deeply
loves.
I dont know why a person would
shoot deer and let them lay or abuse
our game lands, Walton said. I guess
its just greed.
The number of violations certainly
havent decreased during my time as a
deputy, and thats why its important to
stay vigilant and report what you see.
We have to protect our game lands and
preserve our wildlife resource for fu-
ture generations.

DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER
White-tailed deer are about finished having their fawns, and they arent an uncommon sight in fields and
rural areas. Younger female deer typically give birth to a single fawn, while does 2 1/2 years and older
can have twins or even triplets. This fawn was photographed in a yard in Bear Creek Village. While it
might appear a fawn is often alone, the mother is usually nearby and they should never be picked up.

Even with their No. 1 ranking
and Olympic gold medal, the
Americans arent the favorites
for the upcoming Womens
World Cup.
That would be host Germany,
winner of the last two World
Cups and the teamwith the most
talented roster from top to bot-
tom not to mention home-
field advantage. Or Brazil, which
has the best player in the world
in Marta and was runner-up at
the last three major tourna-
ments. As for the once-mighty
United States, well, this hasnt
exactly been its best year, forced
into a playoff last November just
to get to the World Cup and then
losing to England for the first
time in 23 years.
Yet the Americans sure didnt
sound like underdogs as they
headed to Germany, where they
begin their quest for their first
World Cup title since 1999 on
June 28 against North Korea.
The Womens World Cup runs
June 26 to July 17 in nine cities
across Germany.
If were at our best, theres not
a team in the world that can beat
us, Abby Wambach said.
The U.S. was, without ques-
tion, the worlds best back in the
days of Mia Hamm, Julie Foudy,
Joy Fawcett, Kristine Lilly and
Brandi Chastain. The U.S. wom-
en won two of the first three
World Cups, along with the first
Olympic gold medal in 1996. But
the success of that team inspired
other countries to pour re-
sources into their programs, and
the gap between the Americans
and everybody else has narrowed
considerably.
Just look at the recent results.
After going years without a sin-
gle loss, the U.S. has had three
since November. After sailing
through regional qualifying, the
Americans were stunned in the
semifinals by Mexico, a team
that had been 0-24-1 against the
United States. The U.S. then had
to beat Italy in a home-and-home
playoff to earn a spot in the
World Cup.
The Americans also lost to
Sweden in the opener at the Four
Nations tournament, which they
went on to win, and were beaten
by England for the first time
since 1988.
Thats a sign of how strong
the sport has become, captain
Christie Rampone said. Interna-
tional teams have more money
invested and more of a commit-
ment to womens soccer. The
speed of play, the technical side
of the game, it all has improved
and so has the competition level.
Theres not a team out there
you can overlook, she added.
The game is more demanding.
You have to make decisions
quicker and read the game faster
because of the speed everyone is
playing at. If you are not locked
in and focused, whoever you are
playing, you almost have to be
thinking three steps ahead when
before you could get away with
one or two.
As the rest of the world was
improving, the Americans were
struggling to create their own
identity in the post-Golden Gen-
eration era. Instability in the
head coaching position didnt
help, either. Former U.S. player
April Heinrichs was not a great
tactical coach, and had a poor re-
cord of developing young talent.
Greg Ryans decision to start
Brianna Scurry over Hope Solo
in the semifinals of the 2007
World Cup probably cost the U.S.
a shot at the title and, worse,
threatened to destroy the tight
bond thats been a trademark of
U.S. teams.
Solo had posted three shut-
outs before being benched. With-
out her, the Americans were
routed 4-0.
After Solo blasted the deci-
sion, Ryan dismissed her from
the World Cup.
I have no regrets. None. I
dont live with regrets, Solo
said. You learn and you move
on. I have.
Ryan was soon fired and re-
placed by Pia Sundhage. With
unflinching optimismand a calm
temperament, the Swede was
quickly able to repair the frac-
tures in the teamchemistry. Solo
was welcomed back to the team,
and was invaluable as the U.S.
upset Brazil for the gold medal at
the Beijing Olympics.
Equally important, Sundhage
recognized that the U.S. had to
become better tactically. She has
put a premium on footwork and
positioning, and the Americans
are far more balanced under
Sundhage.
She has also brought on
younger players, taking care not
to put too many demands on
them right away. Alex Morgan,
for example, has shown an im-
pressive ability to create chances
and score she has seven goals
in her first 16 games, including
the game winner in the first play-
off game against Italy. But Sund-
hage prefers to use Morgan, who
turns 22 on July 2, as a late sub
so she only has to worry about
getting to the goal, not a games
worth of strategy.
Ive been able to come off the
bench and raise the energy lev-
el, Morgan said, add some-
thing different out there, may-
be.
While the U.S. has been able to
create plenty of chances, it has
struggled to finish them, partic-
ularly in recent games. Morgans
goal against Italy came in added
time, and Lauren Cheney also
scored in stoppage time to lift
the U.S. to a 1-0 victory over
Mexico in a June 5 send-off
match.
But Sundhage is not overly
concerned about that. The team
has addressed it, and will contin-
ue to do so. Besides, the U.S. had
a similarly slow start in 2008,
and that season ended pretty
well.
Im looking at chances and
counting chances. This is a good
team, eventually well score a
goal, Sundhage said. Its not
only the final ball or when we
touch the ball. Its more about
how we create, because thats
something we can control.
The Americans drew perhaps
the toughest group in Germany,
playing World Cup newcomer
Colombia (July 2, Sinsheim) and
Sweden (July 6, Wolfsburg) in
addition to North Korea. Sweden
(fifth) and North Korea (eighth)
are both ranked in the top 10;
Germany is the only other seed-
ed team with two top-10 oppo-
nents.
The U.S. beat North Korea 3-0
in group play in both 1999 and
2003, but the teams tied 2-2 in
2007. And North Korea has been
improving rapidly, winning the
Under-20 World Cup in 2006 and
the Under-17 World Cup in 2008,
and finishing second to the
Americans at the 2008 U-20
World Cup. Sweden is Europes
second-best team, though it has
struggled so far this year with
losses in five of its nine matches.
The draw was a good thing
for us, a tough draw, Wambach
said. Weve seen Sweden and
North Korea before, we know
what kind of challenge that will
be, and that well have to play
our best to allow us to move for-
ward in the tournament. Ive talk-
ed with (teammates) about it,
what everyone needs to do in or-
der to win. You know, it comes
down to playing well all the time
and getting some lucky breaks.
Really, luck plays so much into it.
To win any championship in the
world, you need some luck, too.

THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, JUNE 19, 2011

IF YOUARE approach-
ing your late 40s, you
probably are not going
to like the viewHar-
vard economics profes-
sor David Laibson
provides of the future
thats creeping up on
you and your parents.
By the time you hit your late 50s, you
are going to be peaking in your decision-
making a mixture of brainpower and
experience, says Laibson. But after 65,
you face a greater chance that you will
be slipping a little on mathematical
calculations. Half of people in their 80s
will lose some of the cognitive edge
theyve cherished and will be at risk of
being cheated on everything fromcredit
cards to loans and investments.
Imnot talking about Alzheimers or
dementia, which Laibson says hits 30
percent of people in their 80s. Rather, its
some lack of cognitive function the
type you detect earlier when you look
for the car keys and cant remember
where you dropped them.
Comedian Susan Vass draws huge
laughter fromseniors when she tells the
story of her senior moments in middle
age. She explains her disgust at going
downstairs and forgetting why she head-
ed there in the first place. She solved it
by placing a table at the foot of the stairs
with some cans of vegetables on it. Now,
if she goes downstairs and forgets why
she made the trip, she plucks a can of
corn fromthe table. As she carries it
upstairs she proudly tells herself she
accomplished her mission.
Although the story generates knowing
laughter among wide age groups, the
loss of more significant cognitive skills
in retirement can be no laughing matter,
including froma financial standpoint.
And Laibson wants financial advisers
and adult children to be prepared to step
in where needed.
Aperson who was a great trader at 55
can be led at 85 to invest in a losing New
Jersey mall, said Laibson. The person is
unlikely to realize they are fallible be-
cause a lifetime of experience creates
the sense of expertise.
Laibson and other researchers started
exploring this when they discovered that
older consumers were consistently pay-
ing more for financial products, such as
loans and credit cards, than middle-aged
people. Bad credit scores, lownet worth
or a high tendency to default on pay-
ments might have explained why people
were charged more. But Laibson found
that the seniors were simply being
charged more because they were being
sold poor products and didnt evaluate
themadequately.
Young people are also sold unneces-
sary or overly expensive products, he
said, because they lack experience.
Middle-aged people get the best deals
because they negotiate. Theyve
learned howto navigate the capitalistic
system.
Laibson recently told financial ad-
visers at a Morningstar investment
conference that they need to be aware of
this so they make sure elderly clients
arrive at solid decisions. Research shows
that older people lose about 3 percent-
age points of return on investments
because they are paying excessive fees
and have not diversified their invest-
ments, he said.
Of course, part of the problemoccurs
because unscrupulous or ill-informed
advisers guide elderly clients into high-
commission products that benefit the
adviser more than the client.
This could be solved, said Laibson, if
the government would regulate the
financial-advice business requiring
that advisers to people with individual
retirement accounts be fiduciaries. A
fiduciary must put the clients interest
first ahead of the advisers. The Secu-
rities and Exchange Commission has
been evaluating whether to make a
fiduciary standard mandatory, but insur-
ance and investment firms have lobbied
heavily against it.
Laibson said, We are ignoring people
with IRAs, the elderly people who need
to make their lifetime savings last
through retirement.

HARTFORD, Conn. Everything is
big with New Yorks Empire State
Building, so upgrading the 20th centu-
ry elevators running up and down its
102 floors without disrupting thou-
sands of office workers, visitors and
tourists each day is no small task.
The office and retail tower and Otis
Elevator Co., the nations best-known
elevator manufacturer, announced
Thursday a partnership to replace and
modernize the buildings elevators to
bring them into the computer age and
reduce passenger wait time. Its the fi-
nal phase of a $550 million renovation
project.
For the Empire State Building
among the worlds most photographed
buildings, reproduced into countless
paperweights and star of a 1933 movie
with King Kong hanging from its side
the renovation caps its 80th year.
And for Otis, which sold its first ele-
vators in 1853 but now gets much of its
business in Chinas booming office con-
struction market, working at the mar-
quee office tower in midtown New
York is as high profile as it gets.
When youre young from another
country you think of the Empire State
Building, said Didier Michaud-Da-
niel, Otis president who hails from
France. The Empire State Building is
known worldwide, so in terms of image
its a great opportunity for us to talk
about what were going to do there.
The newly refurbished elevators
promise quick and efficient rides to
make the prized address even more at-
tractive to tenants, who also are bene-
fiting from upgraded lighting, heating
and cooling and other systems.
Anthony Malkin of the Empire State
Building Co., which owns the tower,
said his company has been leasing to
tenants that occupy entire floors or
multiple floors and expect premier ap-
pearances and service.
Were touching on everything, res-
toring the Art Deco lobby to its origi-
nal grandeur and a new energy-effi-
cient system, he said.
Upgrading all 68 elevators and re-
placing 13-ton machines with new
equipment while workers, tourists and
others enter and leave will be a major
effort. The elevators will carry nearly

n Thursday, the 38th an-
nual Wilkes-Barre Farm-
ers Market will kick off
the summer with a host
of activities, vendors and
farmers selling their early season
crops. But, what will area farmers
bring to the table after an unusually
wet and rainy spring?
Alate plantingseasondue toexces-
sive rainfall in April and May has
pushed many area farms a few weeks
behind from having the volume and
variety of vegetables, including cab-
bage, broccoli and onions, they nor-
mally harvest for market day.
Some farmers said they will have
produce on opening day. Others, in-
cluding Lawrence OMalia from
OMalias Farm and Greenhouse in
Wilkes-Barre, will not.
All four of our tables will be filled
with flowers from our greenhouses,
he said.
OMalia said his fields were com-
pletely flooded, three times, in April.
Our fields will flood when the riv-
er reaches 19 feet, he said. The riv-
er, inApril, was crestingat 22feet and
higher.
Last year, OMalia said he brought
the most produce ever for the first
day of the Wilkes-Barre Farmers
Market.
Other farmers also noted the dev-
astating effects the wet first third of
the year is having on their harvest.
Harold Golomb Jr., of Golomb
Farm and Greenhouse in Plains
Township, saidhe is about 10 days be-
hind in his spring crops.
We could not plant normally in
April, he said. Certainitems may be
late.
Some of his crops such as sugar
snappeas are growing, thoughits too
early to tell what the volume of the
harvest will be.
Mike Nadolski, a meteorologist
with the National Weather Service in
Binghamton, N.Y., reported in April,
the Avoca weather station received
6.51inches of rain. This is 3.23 inches
above normal, he said. May received
4.41inches of rain which was only .72
inches above normal.
April was clearly a very wet
month, Nadolski said.
John Esslinger of Penn State Coop-
erative Extension services educator,
said the rain caused a major problem
with farms state-wide.
You just cannot get into the soil to
till it, Esslinger said. Some farms
were hit harder than others, depend-
ing on their type of soil and drain-
age.
Planting seeds in soil that is too
wet will rot the seed, he said. But the
fresh produce is coming, Esslinger
said.
Prices may be a bit higher, Esslin-
ger said. But the heat will bring it all
along.
Two years ago, a rainy spring
caused crops to be late, but cold tem-
peratures created another problem
for farmers, plant diseases, he said.
This year is a little different, Esslin-
ger said, the warmer temperatures
are helping to prevent blight, a dis-
ease affecting crops.
Ted Dymond of Dymond Farms in
Dallas, said he has been farming all
his lifeandhehas never seena spring,
nationwide, like this.

Fruit grower Paul Brace, from
Braces Orchard in Dallas, said
his crops were not as affected by
the rainy spring as the vegetable
farmers.
The rain does not affect the
fruit trees, he said. It does
wash off the spray used to pre-
vent scabs from forming on ap-
ples.
If rain washes away the pro-
tective spray, then it has to be
reapplied, Brace said. But so far,
peaches and apples are growing
very well, he said.
We are actually having to
knock off some fruit to allowthe
rest of the fruit to continue
growing, Brace said. Brace an-
ticipates being able to bring
sweet cherries, cider, and some
apples to the market.
Dymond is hoping the sunny
weather will hold out and help
his strawberries, black berries,
and cherries ripen for market
day.
Golomb said the rainy weath-
er was goodfor some vegetables
suchas beets andzucchini. He is
anticipating his sweet corn, usu-
ally harvested shortly before Ju-
ly 4th, will be about 10 days late.
If it gets warm like it was, it
will help make up time, Go-
lomb said.
Knowing the challenges of
this spring, OMalia said he is
looking forward to seeing what
other farmers bring to market.
I want people to come and
support the market, OMalia
said. Theseasonis not lost, just
delayed.
MARKET
Continued from Page 1D
DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER
Plains Township farmer Harry Golomb Jr. checks the progress
of his red beets.
10 million people each year,
Otis said.
Malkin called it the largest
elevator modernization of its
kind in the world and Otis, a
United Technologies Corp. sub-
sidiary based in Farmington,
Conn., says its the biggest in its
158-year history.
The two sides did not dis-
close how much the contract,
which includes a 10-year main-
tenance agreement, is worth.
Michael Poon, director of
technical support at Motion
Control Engineering Inc., an
elevator control manufacturer
in Rancho Cordova, Calif., said
elevator upgrades are common,
but the Otis-Empire State
Building project is unusual for
its size and complexity.
With lifespans of 15 to 30
years, elevators require fre-
quent upgrades to replace ag-
ing, inefficient equipment, he
said.
Its almost like upgrading
your kitchen in your house, he
said. The equipment is getting
too old and too costly to main-
tain.
In addition, elevators have
joined nearly all other equip-
ment in the move frommechan-
ical to digital, requiring im-
provements almost as frequent
as computer upgrades, Poon
said. Computers can efficiently
direct elevators to where pas-
sengers are, shut elevators
down to save energy and com-
municate with elevator oper-
ators who are becoming net-
working experts, he said.
The Empire State Buildings
design specifications and bid-
ding process lasted more than a
year in what Malkin called a
hotly competitive process.
Only three elevator manufac-
turers Schindler, ThyssenK-
rupp and Otis could credibly
compete, he said. Otis came up
with a novel and innovative
staffing system, Malkin said.
The project is a homecoming
for Otis, which designed and in-
stalled the Empire State Build-
ings original elevators during
the Depression. It will hire a
full-time branch manager to
run the project that is set to be-
gin in November and be fin-
ished in March 2014. It will in-
volve as many as 60 workers on
two shifts a day, six days a
week.
The number of tenants has
declined to fewer than 200 from
561 since 2006 as tenants rent
entire floors or multiple floors
and the buildings management
seeks larger and higher quality
tenants, Malkin said. The reno-
vations, including the new ele-
vators, are part of the plan.
The newelevators promise to
route passengers better and re-
duce their wait times, Otis said.
Michaud-Daniel said its proba-
bly the first time ever in a build-
ing this size that elevator equip-
ment will be as good or better
than those newly installed.
Ive been working in the in-
dustry 30 years and for me,
coming from France, it was a
dream getting the Empire State
Building back, he said. Were
extremely proud of it.

KINGFORTHEDAY
CONGRATULATIONS!
Michael Radzwilla of Hanover Twp.
DALLAS This promises to
be a moneymaking summer for
airlines, with planes full of pas-
sengers paying higher fares than
a year ago. But there could be a
fall chill in the air.
Leisure travelers say theyre
cutting back on travel because of
high-priced tickets, concern
about the economy, and the
need to spend more for every-
thing from food to gasoline.
Airlines are planning to re-
duce flights once summer ends.
Some are already offering sales
to fill their planes when vacation
season is over.
We are worried about what
happens after Labor Day, says
Helane Becker, an analyst for
Dahlman Rose & Co. Were go-
ing to see less demand and more
discounting.
Economists have lowered
growth forecasts after a bunch of
recent bad economic news. Un-
employment remains above 9
percent. Retail sales are slump-
ing for the first time in nearly a
year. Becker worries that could
foreshadow a drop in leisure
travel, offsetting continued
strength in business travel.
People who bought their air-
line tickets before those grim
headlines helped push May air
traffic above last years levels, es-
pecially on international routes.
Discount airlines including
Southwest and JetBlue grabbed
a bigger share of the U.S. market
as vacationers and even business
travelers tried to save money.
Nancy Ruby, a customer-ser-
vice trainer for a nationwide re-
tailer, used to fly United but was
taking Southwest fromDallas to
Baltimore this week.
Its not a corporate policy, but
my company has encouraged us
to book as far in advance as pos-
sible to get lower fares, she
said. And shes been traveling on
Southwest more often to avoid
fees on checked bags and reser-
vations changes.
Travelers like Ruby helped
Southwest boost its May traffic
10.9 percent over a year ago. Jet-
Blue increased traffic 10.6 per-
cent, but growthwas muchslow-
er at Delta and American and
traffic fell slightly at United and
Continental.
Whether their traffic was up
or down, higher airfares boosted
revenue.
United Continental Holdings
Inc. said revenue per seat jump-
ed 14 to 15 percent from a year
ago, and that doesnt even in-
clude money from extra fees.
The same measure was up 11 to
12 percent at Southwest Airlines
Co. and a stunning 19 percent at
JetBlue Airways Corp.
The average flight in May was
more than 83 percent full, an oc-
cupancy level unheard of a few
years ago. And it could go higher
in June, July and August.
Since 2008, airlines have
tightly controlled the number of
seats for sale. Thats not only
made flights fuller, its allowed
the airlines to push fares higher.
And theyre making more from
fees $5.7 billion last year from
fees on checked bags and reser-
vation changes, the government
said this week.
The airlines need a big sum-
mer to offset jet fuel costs, which
are up about one-third from a
year ago. If fuel stays at $3 a gal-
lon, the industrys bill for 2011
will be $54 billion, an increase of
$15 billion over last year, accord-
ing to a trade group.
Airlines are preparing for the
slower fall travel season. This
week, JetBlue and AirTran
rolled out sales that run into late
2011, indicating a need to fill
seats.
Henry Harteveldt, a travel-in-
dustry analyst for Forrester Re-
search, said airlines could cut
even more flights than currently
planned, making it harder to
find a cheap fare. Travelers say
deals are already scarce, and
thats causing them to rethink
travel plans.
Larry and Carla Brock of Pitts-
burgh said they paid $840 for
one round-trip ticket on US Air-
ways to Texas, where one of
their sons was graduating from
surgical residency at a Dallas
hospital. A companion pass
made the trip financially beara-
ble.
That price is kind of ridicu-
lous, Carla said. If this (trip)
was just a vacation, wed have to
think twice about it.
Victor Padilla, a technology
expert for an accounting firm in
Dallas, said instead of his usual
three or four weekend trips to
visit friends in New York and
Chicago, hell go just once or
twice this year.
Joan Spurlock, a physical ther-
apist in Fort Worth, Texas, said
her familys flight to a summer
vacation in Grand Cayman will
cost $650 each in airfare, about
one-third more than the same
trip two years ago. Spurlock was
taking her 14-year-old daughter,
Jamie, to a dance competition in
Florida this week, but her hus-
band and another child were
staying home because of the
cost.
Well travel less often. Its
both higher fares and the econo-
my, she said. Dont get me
started on gas prices what a
rip that is.

Airlines are planning to reduce flights once summer
ends. Some are already offering sales to fill their
planes when vacation season is over.
NEWYORKSearching for
airfares often seems like a game
passengers are set up to lose.
Prices change fromday to day,
even minute to minute. Scouring
multiple websites for the best
deal can be overwhelming. And
after you book, theres no guar-
antee that you got the best price.
You just dont knowwhen to
pull the trigger. Its not like buy-
ing anything else I can think of,
said George Hobica, founder of
Airfarewatchdog.com.
Harriet Levy paid $179 for a
recent round-trip flight on Amer-
ican Airlines between NewYork
and Fort Lauderdale, Fla. Sitting
just one rowbehind her, Shirley
Harrison paid $215. Afewrows
back, Ellis and Dianne Traub
paid $317 each. There were at
least 12 fares on the flight, rang-
ing from$169 to $360.
Theres no rhyme or reason
to it, Harrison said.
Fares can fluctuate significant-
ly in just a fewhours. One Delta
flight fromNewYork to Los
Angeles jumped from$755 to
$1,143 froma Friday to Saturday
in late April, then fell to $718 on
Sunday.
The flight was one of a dozen
The Associated Press tracked
over three months for a July
16-22 vacation. The No. 1find-
ing: Avoid booking tickets on
weekends. Its the most expen-
sive time to buy.
Theres no way to guarantee
the best fare. But before book-
ing, travelers should heed this
additional advice:
Book on Tuesday, Wednes-
day and Thursday. Thats when
airlines most often offer sales.
Buy in advance, but not too
early. The best time is four to six
weeks before traveling. In gener-
al, prices for any given flight are
highest eight to10 weeks and
two to three weeks in advance.
Embrace social media.
Airlines are giving more bene-
fits, like exclusive sales, to trav-
elers who interact with themon
Twitter and Facebook. Those
specials are often gone within
hours.
The so-called discount
airlines JetBlue, AirTran,
Southwest and Frontier ad-
just their fares less frequently
than other airlines, so you can
feel more confident locking in a
price. But their prices arent
always the lowest. Researching
multiple airlines fares is the only
way to get a good deal.
It wasnt always this compli-
cated.
Before the airlines were dereg-
ulated in1978, airfares were
approved by the government.
Prices were consistent and print-
ed in timetables. But because air
travel hadnt been embraced by
Americans and was something
of a luxury, planes were often
less than half full.
Deregulation allowed airlines
to set fares and routes on their
own.
Today, sophisticated comput-
er programs analyze travel data
and set a range of ticket prices so
airlines can get the most money
out of each flight. Prices are
generally higher for seats sold at
the last minute, which are usu-
ally bought by business trav-
elers. Refundable tickets tend to
be the most expensive, and
cheap fares come with lots of
restrictions.
There can be as many as 20
prices on any given flight. Air-
line executives say that all that
helps themboost revenue by 3 to
6 percent. If they price tickets
too low, the airline can lose
money. If prices are too high,
seats go unsold.
If that seat goes out empty,
we cant put it on the shelf and
sell it the next day, said Amer-
ican Airlines spokesman Tim
Smith. Aseat that goes unfilled
is like a banana that instantly
spoils on takeoff.
Searching for better airfares
doesnt have to be a gamble

Q: I am 28 years old and cur-
rently serving in the U.S Army.
In the shop where I work, we
have a lot of younger guys.
They act so childish that its
embarrassing to call them sol-
diers. They think everything is
a joke and have no clue when to
back off. Being deployed away
from my wife and family is
tough enough without having
to deal with these immature,
smart-mouthed kids. I men-
tioned this to our sergeant, but
he just brushed me off. What
can I do?
A: If your primary concern is
their lack of professionalism,
then you need to separate ac-
tual work problems from per-
sonal irritation.
Any juvenile behavior that
impedes productivity or cre-
ates a safety hazard should be
brought to the attention of
your sergeant.
For example: I know these
guys are young and immature,
but I worry that horseplay
around the equipment may
cause someone to get hurt. It
also distracts people from
working, so I thought you
might want to speak to them
about it.
On the other hand, if you are
being personally targeted, the
young jokesters may just be
trying to provoke a reaction.
Any comeback will only en-
courage them, so the best re-
sponse is no response. If you
simply smile and go about your
business, they will eventually
get bored and find their fun
elsewhere.
If teasing turns into personal
insults, however, you may want
to explain where you draw that
line. For example: I know
youre only kidding around, but
I want you to know that jokes
about my family are not at all
funny to me. If these steps fail
to help, just try to ignore your
smart-aleck colleagues.
They may simply be dealing
with the stress of deployment
in their own way.
Q: After working with my
manager, Julia, for eight
years, I recently received my
first negative performance ap-
praisal. Previous reviews have
all been quite good, with no
suggestions for improvement.
Julia plans to retire soon be-
cause she feels she has no fu-
ture here. Our company was ac-
quired two years ago, and the
new management has a very
different style. When I get a
new boss, Im afraid this ap-
praisal will make a bad impres-
sion. What should I do?
A: Your negative review is
definitely a warning sign. If Ju-
lia has seemed satisfied with
your performance, then she
may be expressing someone
elses opinion. Given the recent
leadership change, this feed-
back might actually be coming
from higher management. Be-
cause Julia has had difficulty
adjusting to the acquisition,
she may not have accurately
conveyed the perspective of
your new leaders. As a result,
you could have met her expec-
tations, but fallen short of
theirs. To check this out, ask
Julia whether any of the nega-
tive comments came from
someone else. If so, try to get
some direct feedback fromthat
person, then attach an im-
provement plan to your review.
When your new boss arrives,
you can explain the situation,
review the plan, and agree on
specific goals.
Army is no place for
unprofessional behavior

McClatchy-Tribune News Service
THERMAL, Calif. Commu-
nity activists in Southern Califor-
nias Coachella Valley have been
toilingfor years alongthe eastern
rim of this crescent-shaped
breadbasket to spread the word
about the abandoned waste
dumps, shoddy migrant housing
and overburdened recycling facil-
ities that are a fact of life in this
poor, farmworker community.
Their work paidoff last month,
when the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency and state reg-
ulators cracked down on a soil re-
cycling plant that was blamed by
air quality officials for a putrid
stench that sickened dozens of
children and teachers at a nearby
school.
Now, the groups are taking ad-
vantage of that national spotlight
includinga visit fromU.S. Sen.
BarbaraBoxer topress for sim-
ilar actionat other toxic sites that
dot the remote valley, from an
abandoned and illegal dump to a
mountain of human sewage that
locals dubbed Mt. San Diego be-
cause it was trucked in from San
Diego County.
Activists will take state law-
makers and state and federal reg-
ulatory officials on an environ-
mental justice bus tour Friday
withstops at alaundrylist of sites
that represent potential environ-
mental hazards. Its the second
such tour the group has orga-
nized this year since forming an
environmental task force that in-
cludes officials from all levels of
government, with the goal of im-
proving living conditions in the
sun-baked Coachella Valley.
The tour on Friday precedes a
state legislative committee hear-
ing on environmental safety and
toxins that will be held at the lo-
cal high school here.
The federal crackdown on soil
recycler Western Environmental,
Inc., whichsits ontribal land, was
the first major success after a coa-
lition of civil rights and migrant
advocacy groups began using an
evolving strategy, said Megan
Beaman, an attorney with Cali-
fornia Rural Legal Assistance Inc.
The group used to try to make its
point by filing lawsuits against
major polluters or negligent land-
lords but recently realized thats
not enough, she said.
We need a lot more people at
the table and a lot more re-
sources, she said. We are look-
ing at this as an opportunity to
create a model of enforcement ...
that will carry on to other places
in our community and around
the state.
The valley roughly 130 miles
southeast of Los Angeles is well-
known for the glitzier cities such
as PalmSprings and PalmDesert
that sit on its western edge, but
dusty towns to the east like Mec-
ca, Thermal and Indio skirt the
northerntipof theSaltonSeaand
seem a world away from the fair-
ways and swimming pools of
their neighbors. Farmworkers,
many of them migrants, toil in
the agricultural fields that define
this heavily irrigated region and
come home to dangerously over-
crowded trailer parks with limit-
ed septic systems and jerry-
rigged electrical systems.
Recycling plants, dumps and
other businesses unwelcome in
more metropolitan areas set up
shop years ago in the eastern val-
ley and continue to present
health hazards.
InMarch, the newlyformeden-
vironmental task force ramped
up an online site where residents
can log in and document environ-
mental hazards in their commu-
nity, including unexplained
fumes and pollution, said Bea-
man, whose group is one of the
main organizations working in
the valley.
Both the so-called toxic
tours and the online site are
ideas borrowed from the nearby
Imperial Valley, where poor and
mostly migrant residents deal
with similar issues, she said. The
online log of residents com-
plaints has been used there to
identify safety issues previously
unknown to regulators, organiz-
ers say, and they hope it will have
the same effect in the Coachella
Valley.
Darryl Adams, the interim su-
perintendent of the Coachella
Valley Unified School District,
moved to the region a year ago
andtookthe first bus tour that ac-
tivists offeredearlier this year. He
signed up after students at one of
his elementary schools in Mecca
weresickenedbyfumes that were
later traced to Western Environ-
mental, whose facilities are visi-
ble fromthe schools playground.
Adams said he was stunned by
the things he saw on the tour, es-
pecially the living conditions in
the migrant encampments.
I could not believe what I saw
and ever since that day its been
mypurposeinlife... toeventually
do something about those living
conditions, he said. Why is the
eastern Coachella Valley being
seen as a dump site or a recycling
place when you have people in
homes and the agricultural in-
dustry out here? Why isnt some-
thing being done out here?
The EPA issued an order last
month that temporarily shut
down Western Environmental af-
ter dozens of children at the
school got sick from a rotten
egg smell that haddriftedacross
the community on and off for
months. The order temporarily
bans Western from accepting
new shipments of soil contami-
nated with petroleum and other
hazardous substances and in-
structed the company to reduce
and cover 40-foot-tall piles of dirt
that lined the property it leases
from the Cabazon Band of Mis-
sion Indians.
Western, whichhas takensteps
to address the order, has chal-
lenged the findings of regulators
who traced the stench to its oper-
ations. It is working with regula-
tors to reopen.
It was to be one of about a half-
dozen sites visited by the envi-
ronmental tour planned by com-
munity activists.
Other likely stops include a tire
recycling facility where a fire
broke out last month; the human
sewage pile; an abandoned dump
onlandownedbythe Torres Mar-
tinez Band of Mission Indians
and a migrant housing camp.

BUY SIGNAL?
Individual investors are close to their
gloomiest in months. Just 24 percent
on June 9 felt stocks would rise over
the next six months, according to a
survey by the American Association of
Individual Investors. Nearly half, 48
percent, said stocks would fall. The
good news: The last time investors
were that bearish was August, just
before the market bottomed. The S&P
500 rose 30 percent from the end of
August through April. Some analysts
say todays pessimism could again be
a positive contrarian signal. But one
big difference exists: Last time, the
Federal Reserve got stocks to rise by
announcing a $600 billion bond-buy-
ing program. Many economists dont
see that happening again.
ADMITTING WEAKNESS
Even hospitals are seeing a soft
patch this spring. Total inpatient
admissions fell 1.5 percent in
May from last year, according to
a survey by Citi Investment Re-
search. Thats worse than the
0.4 percent drop in April. It also
mirrors a slowdown across the
economy, as shown in soft data
reports since May. The weak job
market means more people are
without health insurance. It also
has people delaying plastic sur-
gery and other elective proce-
dures. That means investors
should expect fewer for-profit
hospital companies to beat earn-
ings expectations this quarter,
says Citi analyst Gary Taylor.
ARECORD, REALLY?
It doesnt feel like it, but a report
this week will show the economy is
at a record high. Before the reces-
sion, the economy at its peak to-
taled $13.36 trillion in inflation-ad-
justed dollars. Economists expect
Fridays report, the governments fi-
nal reading on first-quarter growth,
to show the economy at $13.4 tril-
lion. It actually surpassed its old
peak late last year and has kept go-
ing thanks to exports. Thats one
reason why Credit Suisse strate-
gists are still positive on stocks.
The economy is back to a record,
and analysts expect corporate prof-
its to also hit a peak this year. Yet
the S&P 500 ended the week 19
percent below its 2009 peak. Doctor performing rhinoplastic surgery

When interest rates rise, bond pric-
es fall. Well, most of them do. Float-
ing rate bonds have interest rates
that reset periodically. That means
when interest rates rise, so do the
yields of floating rate bonds. The
ability to reset means prices for
floaters arent affected by changes
in interest rates. That also means
investors worried about the threat
of rising interest rates have been
flooding into floating-rate debt.
Many floating rate mutual funds in-
vest in loans that banks make to
borrowers whose rates reset every
few months. Prices for these bank
loans have climbed so much that
David Hillmeyer, a portfolio man-
ager at Delaware Investments, is
focusing on other types of floating
rate debt.
Where are in-
terest rates
headed?
(Short-term in-
terest rates are)
anchored right
now. But if
(confidence in
U.S. Treasurys)
at all starts to
wane, rates are
going to move
higher, regard-
less of what
growth expectations are. Greece is
an extreme example. Once confi-
dence goes, all bets are off. I think
the U.S. is not a Greece, but
(should 10-year Treasury rates rise
from their current 3 percent to) 5
percent or 6 percent? And thats
how investors of floating rate prod-
ucts are thinking now.
When people invest in bank
loans, what are they buying? Are
these loans for leveraged buy-
outs, or LBOs, where people are
borrowing to buy companies?
LBOs have played a role, but
theyre not nearly as large as they
were in 06. Its just more typical
high yield type borrowers that are
hitting the loan market, small busi-
nesses.
And popularity for bank loans
has been surging?
You have seen so much money
come into the asset class over the
last six to nine months that its driv-
en valuations, arguably in some
cases, through fundamental values.
Thats why we want to look and
consider other alternatives in the
marketplace, away from bank
loans.
How long have you been shifting
away from bank loans?
Weve been doing that over the last
two months. Weve been letting that
exposure roll off, and weve been
moving up in quality. (Bank loans
are rated as below investment
grade credit quality.)
So if not bank loans, what are
you looking at?
Investment grade corporates. One
of the things were comfortable with
as a firm is corporate balance
sheets. Weve got a lot of (cash) on
corporate balance sheets. Theres
good value.
How often do the interest rates
reset on those investment-grade
corporate bonds?
It depends. Generally, youre going
to see one-month or three month
resets.
A floating rate bonds price isnt
affected by changes in interest
rates, but can it still fluctuate?
Absolutely, it can. People got very
comfortable over the last decade,
up until the blowup in 07, that bank
loans had a relatively stable (price),
that if you invest in bank loans, it
was spitting off some income and
was fairly predictable. I think as the
asset class developed over the
years, and grew in size and scope,
the institutional investors played a
larger role in it. Trading volumes in-
creased, and youve seen price vol-
atility enter into it. People forget this
part of the equation, the credit qual-
ity issue.
So, how should investors think
of floating rate bonds, in terms
of risk?
I guess it depends on whether
youre looking at it from interest rate
risk or credit risk. On credit risk, Id
put it between investment-grade
bonds and high-yield bonds. On in-
terest rate risk, its at the front end
(of the safety spectrum).

InsiderQ&A
Ulta Salon, Cosmetics & Fragrances stock
keeps getting prettier. But investors may want to
wait for it to fade a bit before buying.
The stock is up 67 percent in 2011 through
Thursday, whipping the S&P 500s gain of 1 per-
cent. It did even better the last two years, rising
119 percent in 2009 and 87 percent in 2010. The
reason is that the seller of cosmetics, perfumes
and hair products offers something in short supply:
strong growth.
The companys net income jumped 71 percent
to $23.3 million last quarter. It was the 10th straight
quarter the company beat analysts expectations.
Key to Ultas growth is that its 394 stores offer both
lower-end and premium brands. That means cus-
tomers can buy $1.99 mascara during downturns.
When times are better, they can stay at the same
store and move up to $49 Lashatone mascara.
Ulta plans to open 61 stores this fiscal year,
which ends in January. All the stores also include
full-service salons. Analysts expect Ultas earnings
per share to climb 40 percent this fiscal year. The
company also has zero long-term debt.
The problem, some analysts say, is that the
stock has climbed so much. Its stock trades at 32
times its expected earnings over the next 12
months. That compares with just 16 times for Body
Central, which owns the Body Shop stores, and 11
times for Regis, which owns Supercuts.
Jefferies analyst Randal Konik says Ultas stock
deserves a higher price-to-earnings ratio given its
take your breath away growth - but not much
more than it has now. He recommends waiting for
a pullback before buying.

Fishing for stocks with high ROE
Stock
Screener
Want to find high-quality stocks? Take a look at a companys return
on equity.
Thats a measure of how well a company reinvests its earnings every
year. Companies with a high ROE tend to be stable, consistent
performers that generate lots of cash for investors.
This screen, powered by FactSet, identifies companies in the S&P 500
that have had a ROE above 20 percent for each of the past five years. The
average return on equity for the S&P 500 is about 17. All of the companies
pay a dividend, and their stocks have outperformed the S&P 500 this year.
They also look cheap based on their price-to-earnings ratios. Each stock
has a P/E below 15, the average for the S&P 500.
Cigarette maker Altria Group tops the list. The company has a return on
equity of 84 percent based on its results over the past year. It also has a
dividend yield of 5.6 percent, one of the largest in the S&P. The stock has
risen 9 percent this year, compared to the S&Ps 1 percent gain.
Some of the other stocks with high returns on equity include

Treasury yields hit 2011 lows
The 10-year Treasurys yield stayed below 3 percent
last week, at one point hitting its lowest level for the
year. Stocks fell early in the week, which sent inves-
tors rushing for safer investments. That drove up the
price of bonds, which moves opposite yields. Mort-
gage rates were flat. The average rate on a 30-year
fixed mortgage ticked up from a yearly low of 4.49
percent to 4.5 percent.

Assets in an employer-sponsored
plan (and in a traditional IRA, for
that matter) must start being distrib-
uted by the time the account owner
turns 70 1/2, whether the money is
needed or not. The account owner
loses the benefit of tax-deferral on
money withdrawn. With a Roth
IRA, however, if the money isnt
needed, it can continue to grow,
tax-free, no matter how old you get.
Also, withdrawals from work
plans and traditional IRAs before
the account owner is age 59 1/2
result in immediate taxation and
a 10 percent penalty. Some plans
allow participants to borrow from
their plans, but many dont. Con-
tributions to (but not earnings in) a
Roth IRA may be withdrawn any-
time, penalty- and tax-free. Thats
also true for earnings withdrawn for

Shareholders Matter
For many years, the financial
world just didnt care about share-
holders opinions. If you didnt
like your stocks performance or
policies, you supposedly had two
options: Sell it or shut up about it.
Somewhere along the way, every-
one seemed to forget that owning
shares makes you part-owner of a
public company. But now, at long
last, shareholders are starting to
remember that their opinions count.
Say-on-pay votes are now man-
datory, for example, and reports of
shareholders rejecting outrageous
CEO pay keep rolling in. Although
a minority of companies have had
their compensation plans rejected,
the pay plans that do get shot down
show that shareholders are finally
starting to speak their minds.
Shareholders arent confining their
complaints to compensation, either. A
group of investors including the AFL-
CIO, the trustee of New Yorks larg-
est pension fund, and Trillium Asset
Management recently urged Chevron
to settle litigation related to alleged
environmental damage in Ecuador.
Corporations wont improve on
their own. If your company is pursu-
ing dubious tactics to muzzle your
fellow investors, engaging in poor
practices, or paying its top executives
more than their performance actually
merits, dont suffer in silence, or sur-
render and sell out. Vote your proxy
ballots, call your companys investor
relations department, and raise as
much ruckus as you can.

Rolling Reminders
About 12 years ago, I was living
in the San Francisco area, where
Webvan, the grocery-delivery
e-commerce service, was getting a
lot of positive buzz (as was every-
thing else that ended in .com).
So I gave it a try as
a customer and abso-
lutely loved the concept
and service. I wrongly
believed that a great customer
experience correlated with a sound
business plan. Then, when the stock
started dropping, I saw that as a
great opportunity to snap up even
more shares. That was a $60,000
lesson. Ouch.
In the years that followed, Id
occasionally see old Webvan deliv-
ery vehicles being driven around.
Whenever I did, I viewed them as
rolling reminders of how not to
invest. R.G., Hudson, Ohio
The Fool Responds: Investors
in Webvan were excited about its
promise, but before it went bank-
rupt in 2001, it was serving only 10
markets. You might have loved it
in San Francisco, but most of the
country had yet to experience it.
Getting in early can sometimes pay
off, but waiting for proven perfor-
mance and financial stability can
also pay off, with less risk.

Disregard That
Purchase Price
Q
I bought a stock near its
all-time high. Should I hold
on, or sell it? A.G., West Palm
Beach, Fla.
A
The price you paid for the
stock is important when you
sell it and calculate your gain (or
loss) for tax purposes. But most of
the time, dont think about it too
much. What really matters is the
current price and your estimate of
the stocks true fair price.
For example, imagine you
bought shares of Carrier Pigeon
Communications (ticker:
SQUAWK) for $60 each and
theyre now trading for $40 each.
If you think the shares are worth
$50, you should probably hang on.
If you think theyre worth less than
$40, selling might be best.
Ignore the fact that youre
down $20 per share. If youd
bought the shares for $10 each,
youd be up $30 per share, but
your thinking should be the same
hang on if you think more
growth is ahead, and sell if you
expect the shares to falter.
Never hang on to a stock just
in the hope of recouping your losses.
You can always try to make your
money back in another stock,
ideally one in which you have
much more confidence.

Q
Which mutual funds pay the
most money to shareholders?
D.P., Decatur, Ill.
A
Income funds aim to
spit out cash regularly by
investing mainly in securities that
pay interest or dividends. Other
kinds of funds (such as growth
or value ones) typically aim to
reward shareholders mainly via
stock price appreciation.

Better Than a 401(k)
Your 401(k), 403(b) or 457 plan
may not be your single best bet for
retirement savings.
Economists Laurence J. Kotlikoff
and Jagadeesh Gokhale, for example,
have suggested that many investors
would have more money in retire-
ment if they contributed to
accounts other than 401(k)s.
Thats because withdraw-
als from 401(k) accounts are
taxed as ordinary income, instead of
at the lower capital gains rates for
long-term holdings. The withdrawals
can also push retirees into higher tax
brackets. Qualified Roth IRA with-
drawals, meanwhile, are tax-free.
If your employer matches your
retirement plan contributions, Kot-
likoff and Gokhale advise contribut-
ing enough to take full advantage of
that free money. After that, youre
probably better off putting your next
dollars in a Roth IRA, if youre eli-
gible, to the maximum allowed. (If
your employer doesnt offer a match,
you might contribute the maximum
amount to a Roth IRA before even
considering another option.)

THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, JUNE 19, 2011

THE ORGANIZERS
of Monday nights
Republican debate
apparently knew what
they were doing when
they lined up presi-
dential hopefuls
across New Hamp-
shires St. Anselm College stage in a
way that reflected the contests pecking
order and ideological shape.
In the center politically, ideolog-
ically and physically was former
Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney,
looking very much the early front-
runner polls say he is. Placed on the
ends by the main sponsor, CNN, were
former Sen. Rick Santorum and busi-
nessman Herman Cain, probably the
most ideologically extreme in the solid-
ly conservative field.
In between, two who seem more like
interesting curiosities than true conten-
ders Texas Rep. Ron Paul and for-
mer House Speaker Newt Gingrich
and two Minnesotans who might have
the best chances in this field of over-
taking Romney.
Former Minnesota Gov. Tim Paw-
lenty and Rep. Michele Bachmann may
have provided the first major debates
lasting significance. Pawlenty, touted
by many Republicans as potentially
Romneys top challenger, underscored
his weak persona by refusing to repeat
criticism of the latters Massachusetts
health care plan.
By contrast, tea party favorite Bach-
mann, who combines a Sarah Palin-like
personal appeal with a more traditional
political approach, made a stronger
impression by speaking directly and
knowledgeably on the issues. The two
Minnesotans loom as major rivals in
next-door Iowas caucuses before New
Hampshires primary.
The debate generally resembled an
echo chamber, as participants repeated-
ly attacked President Barack Obama
and avoided criticizing each another.
They showed some differences on
social issues, including how the federal
government should combat legalized
gay marriage in states like New Hamp-
shire, and whether to overturn Oba-
mas decision ending the militarys
dont ask, dont tell policy for gays.
Santorum said he would repeal Oba-
mas policy. Cain and Paul said they
wouldnt. Romney, Bachmann, Gin-
grich and Pawlenty said they would
rely on the militarys evaluation of the
changes.
On economic issues, all favored
cutting taxes and repealing Obamas
health plan. But Romney got a pass
and Pawlenty missed a chance when
CNN moderator John King asked him
to repeat his weekend criticism linking
the two plans as Obamneycare.
I just cited President Obamas own
words that he looked to Massachusetts
as a blueprint, Pawlenty said.
Romney defended his plan as a state
solution to a problem. He said he cant
wait to debate Obama and ask, if he
paid such attention to Massachusetts,
Why didnt you give me a call and
asked what worked and what didnt?
Pawlentys rivals refused to build on
widespread criticism that his economic
plan was unrealistic in assuming 5
percent annual GDP growth.
I think we need a president who is
optimistic, Santorum said. Pawlenty
insisted this idea we cant have 5 per-
cent growth is hogwash, even though
reaching that level is rare.
Romney reflected his experience,
showing he understands consistent
message is a key to debate success, and
repeatedly blasted Obamas economic
record.
But one answer could dog him in the
crucial Midwestern industrial states,
his defense of his 2008 comment that if
the federal government bailed out U.S.
automakers, you can kiss the Amer-
ican automotive industry goodbye.
Presidential debates often give the
mistaken impression one person can
single-handedly reverse U.S. policies.
Gingrich, the closest thing to a truth-
teller, essentially repeated his prior
political assessment of the contro-
versial GOP Medicare plan: If you
cant convince the American people its
a good idea, maybe its not a good
idea.
And he observed that to achieve its
goals, the GOP needs to gain 12 Senate
seats and 30 to 40 in the House as
well as win the presidency.

SUKANYA ROY and I first met on


Feb. 5 of this year when she visited
Wyoming Seminary to take an exam,
tour its lovely campus and enjoy an
afternoon lunch. During her subse-
quent interview Sukanya held her own
before a distinguished panel of Sem
faculty and administrators. Not quite 14
at the time, Sukanya, of South Abing-
ton, fielded an array of questions with
intelligence, charm, humor, humility,
excitement and grace. In March she
won the 2011 Times Leader/Scripps
Northeast Pennsylvania Regional Spell-
ing Bee for the third consecutive year.
Earlier this month she was crowned the
84th Scripps National Spelling Bee
Champion live on ESPN. Afterward,
Sukanya and her parents were invited
to the White House and spent time in
the Oval Office with President Barack
Obama. Ive never met the president,
but Ive met Sukanya and, despite the
whirlwind, she maintains her grace,
humility and charm.
Excitement continues to build in the
11th District around the possible candi-
dacy of Democrat Bill Vinsko for Con-
gress. Vinsko, 36, of Wilkes-Barre, is a
1997 graduate of Kings College and
holds a masters degree in public ad-
ministration from Penn State Uni-
versity. He went on to receive his juris
doctorate from the Dickinson School of
Law in 2000 and is the managing prin-
cipal of his own law practice. Married
and the father of three, the charismatic
Vinsko is extremely bright and speaks
with conviction about creating jobs in
Northeastern Pennsylvania for the
individuals and families living here.
Last week I sat down to talk with him
and, unlike candidates of the past,
Vinsko represents a new generation of
leadership. Should he run, this type of
intelligent, energetic and well-spoken
candidacy, coupled with his genuine
sincerity, could be a Republicans worst
nightmare.
Did you watch Tuesdays Republican
presidential debate from Saint Anselm
College in Manchester, N.H.? It was
perhaps more consequential than many
of us thought possible. Former Minne-
sota Gov. Tim Pawlenty and former
U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum of Pennsylva-
nia, each of whom had an opportunity
to shine on a national stage, fell terribly
flat. Moderator John King of CNN gave
each an opportunity to score against
former Massachusetts governor and
Republican frontrunner Mitt Romney,
yet both demurred, appearing weak,
and no doubt sent contributors racing
toward the exits and the campaigns of
other candidates. At times, Santorum
looked downright melancholy. Gazing
at his shoes more than the camera, he
paled standing next to Congresswoman
Michele Bachmann of Minnesota, who
by comparison came off as the happy
warrior, positive and even somewhat
knowledgeable. Santorum is one of the
nicest guys you will ever meet. He
knows his issues, cares about them
deeply and the debates should have
been his passport to the top tier of GOP
contenders. Instead, this first New
Hampshire forum probably ended any
hope he had of inching even remotely
close to the nomination. When asked
the lighthearted question, Leno or
Conan? (a different one was posed to
each candidate) Santorum fumbled,
stumbled, eventually choosing Leno
before awkwardly and unnecessarily
injecting that he doesnt watch either
as if some on the fringe might object.
More important, enjoy the impend-
ing summer solstice, and Happy Fa-
thers Day!

ASHINGTON Rep. Anthony Weiner, D-N.Y., resigned from Congress on Thursday in
the wake of a sexting scandal, abruptly halting a once-promising political career and
serving as a somber warning to lawmakers about dealing with the ever-changing social media
world.
Weiner, 46, quit after a deafening drumbeat for his resignation, a clamor that reached to the
Oval Office, as President Barack Obama strongly suggested it was time for the seven-term
congressman to go.
A grim Weiner made his exit at a
Brooklyn, N.Y., senior center. Weiner
recalled growing up with a mother
who taught school for 32 years and a
father who went to law school on the
GI Bill.
The middle-class story of New
York is my story, Weiner said, and
Im very proud of that.
But now, he said, Imhere today to
again apologize for the personal mis-
takes I have made and the embarrass-
ment I have caused. I make this apol-
ogy for my neighbors andmy constitu-
ents but I made it particularly for my
wife, Huma.
Huma Abedin is a top aide to Secre-
tary of State Hillary Clinton. She
wasnt by Weiners side at the news
conference.
Weiner said he wanted to fight for
the middle class and those struggling
to make it, but unfortunately the dis-
traction that I have created has made
that impossible, sotodayImannounc-
ing my resignation from Congress.
He took no questions.
This drama abruptly changed Wein-
ers fortunes. Before the controversy
erupted nearly three weeks ago, he
was a serious candidate to become the
next mayor of New York in 2013.
But his stature began to crumble
with the news that a Bellingham,
Wash., college student had received a
sexually suggestive photo from Wein-
ers Twitter account. Weiner denied
sending it, saying the account had
been hacked, and he clung to that ex-
planation for a few days.
As more texts, and then suggestive
photos of the congressman, surfaced,
he conceded at a news conference
June 6 in New York that hed sent the
photo and lied about its origin. House
of Representatives Minority Leader
Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., called for a
House Ethics Committee probe.
The story wouldnt die. More reve-
lations surfaced, including messages
to a 17-year-old Delaware girl. Last
Saturday, Weiner sought a leave of ab-
sence and said hed seek treatment.
Pelosi called for himto step down. On
Monday, Obama told NBC, I can tell
you that if it was me, I would resign.
But perhaps a more lasting lesson
from the Weiner incident, said Rep.
Nick Rahall, D-W.Va., was: Tell the
truth. If you cant tell the truth, leave
immediately.
Added Pelosi: Congressman Wein-
er exercised poor judgment in his ac-
tions and poor judgment in his reac-
tion to the revelations. Today, he
made the right judgment in resign-
ing.

Editorial
As drilling increases, I
anticipate, at least in the short
term, a proportionate increase in
concerns and complaints which
the department must be prepared
to address.
Eli Avila
Pennsylvanias Health Secretary told the Marcellus Shale Advisory
Commission on Friday that he wants to create a registry to track
illnesses in communities near heavy natural gas drilling to determine
what kind of impact, if any, the activity has on public health.
THE REPUBLICANS con-
fused assortment of an-
nounced presidential candi-
dates as well as unan-
nounced candidates and
distant possibilities of candi-
dates seems to be clar-
ifying somewhat. The withdrawal of Donald
Trump and Mike Huckabee, as well as the
withdrawal of much of Newt Gingrichs staff,
seems like a much-needed weeding-out proc-
ess.
Although Mitt Romney has been leading in
the polls, his lead over other potential rivals
has been slim. Being a front-runner this far
ahead of next years nominating convention
would not mean much, even if Gov. Romneys
lead and his support were much bigger than
they are.
The albatross around Romneys neck is the
RomneyCare medical plan that he signed
into law in Massachusetts. His refusal to
repudiate it means that, as a presidential
candidate, he would forfeit one of the stron-
gest arguments against Barack Obama, who
has ObamaCare as his albatross.
Nor is an about-face on RomneyCare a
viable option for Romney. He already has
done too many other about-faces for the vot-
ers. He has painted himself into a corner.
Articulate Newt Gingrich might be the best
Republican to go toe-to-toe with Obama in
presidential debates and a lack of effective
articulation has been the Republicans big
weakness for years. Try to name a Republican
renowned for his articulation, besides Ronald
Reagan, Theodore Roosevelt and Abraham
Lincoln.
While Gingrich is not at that level, he is
definitely a cut above most Republican candi-
dates. He also represents a cherished moment
in Republican history, when they took the
House of Representatives for the first time in
40 years, as a result of Gingrichs Contract
with America election strategy.
But that was in the 1990s, and many young-
er voters today might have no idea what that
was all about. Worse yet, former Speaker
Gingrich has shown too many signs of oppor-
tunism including his wholly unnecessary
swipe at Republican Congressman Paul Ryans
attempt to bring some fiscal sanity to Wash-
ington to be trusted.
Among the other announced Republican
presidential candidates, former Gov. Tim
Pawlenty of Minnesota talks the most sense
and shows the most courage. When you tell
people in a corn-producing state such as Iowa
that you want to cut back on ethanol sub-
sidies, that takes guts, because Iowa also will
produce the first results in next years primary
campaign season. And first results, like other
first impressions, carry a lot of weight.
But somebody has got to talk sense about
our dire economic problems and it is pain-
fully clear that Obama will not be that some-
body. The fact that Pawlenty has put his neck
on the line to do so is a big plus.
Pawlenty cites his track record to back up
his statements. That includes reducing etha-
nol subsidies when he was governor of Minne-
sota and cutting the growth of state govern-
ment spending from more than 20 percent a
year to under 2 percent.
Gov. Pawlenty fought Minnesotas transit
unions over runaway pensions and hung
tough during a long strike. Today, he says,
we have a transit system that gives commu-
ters a ride, without taking the taxpayers for a
ride.
Some fear that Gov. Pawlenty doesnt have
the charisma and fireworks rhetoric that they
would like to see in a candidate. Charisma
and rhetoric are what gave us the current
disastrous administration in Washington.
Politicians and the media might want a
candidate with verbal fireworks, but the peo-
ple want jobs. As Pawlenty put it: Fluffy
promises of hope and change dont buy our
groceries, make our mortgage payments, put
gas in our cars or pay for our childrens
clothes.
Pawlentys got plenty of guts, but is that enough?

T H O M A S S O W E L L
NOW THAT graduation
season is upon us, heres
one last test question for
the high school students:
Have you ever seen the
painting of a pipe by Rene
Magritte? Its called The
Treachery of Imagery, and if you havent
had art history, Ill describe it.
Its just a painting of a pipe, really, except
that at the bottom it says, in French, This
is not a pipe. What can such a caption
mean? Obviously, whats portrayed is a
pipe. But Magritte is trying to remind us
that his painting is just a picture of a pipe
an image that cannot be stuffed with tobac-
co or smoked and thats a crucial dis-
tinction.
Its one worth pondering now that many
of you are about to go off to college, be-
cause there is an equally crucial distinction
to be drawn between a degree and an edu-
cation. Yet everyone is so focused on the
former that an awful lot of young people
are graduating without the latter.
The problem is that weve confused the
two mistaken credentials for knowledge,
and time in school for learning. Its a tragic
mistake.
And its a mistake the marketplace is
unlikely to make for long.
Already, credential inflation has set in. As
college degrees have become more plenti-
ful, some employers have started demand-
ing an MBA or other graduate degree.
Undergraduate and even graduate de-
grees will lose more value over time as
employers wake up to the fact that you
cant smoke a picture of a pipe.
The question is whether all these college
degrees signify much learning. The signs so
far arent encouraging. Survey data indicate
that college students study less than they
used to, yet are also the beneficiaries of
inflated grades. At many colleges, profes-
sors beholden to student evaluations and
more interested in their own research are
content not to challenge their students,
whose ratings inevitably are influenced
favorably by how easy the coursework is.
Apparently, most participants are happy
with this arrangement.
Business students seem especially prone
to sleepwalk through college. They spend
less time studying than students with other
majors, get less out of their first two years
of college and actually do worse than non-
business majors on the GMAT, a standar-
dized test for admission to a graduate pro-
gram in business. The inadequacies of
undergraduate business education are espe-
cially pronounced among such soft spe-
cialties as marketing and management, as
opposed to, say, accounting.
Coasting through college at keg parties
and bong blasts can be fun. (Dont ask me
how I know!) But there really is life after
graduation, and without an honest-to-good-
ness education it might prove surprisingly
unhappy.
So forget about the degree. What you
really need from college is the same thing
you ought to have had from high school,
only more of it: some understanding of
math and science, some coherent knowl-
edge of the world and its history, and the
skills to communicate clearly and persua-
sively in writing. Youll especially need the
ability to read and think critically.
If you get all this, youll have the begin-
nings of an education that will propel you
into a lifetime of curiosity. As a bonus, you
shouldnt have too much trouble making a
living. Of course, you can always just bor-
row a bunch of money to get an empty
credential. But dont expect the rest of the
world to mistake it for an education. As
Magritte must surely have said somewhere,
you can put that in your pipe and smoke it.
That degree doesnt always add up to lessons learned

ask, might these judges have
been brought to justice soon-
er, sparing damage to the in-
stitution and individuals who
passed through their doors?
Last week, a Philadelphia-
based advocacy group called
Pennsylvanians for Modern
Courts released a report call-
ing for several sensible chang-
es to the Judicial Conduct
Boards operations. The
boards viability, linked in no
small way to its credibility
among the public, is depend-
ent on adopting many of
these changes.
Among them:
Clarify procedures for the
emergency or temporary re-
moval of a judge while a com-
plaint is being investigated, if
warranted by allegations of
serious bench misconduct.
Institute a reconsidera-
tion process for
dismissed com-
plaints, requir-
ing that new evi-
dence be pre-
sented before the
board will give a
complaint a sec-
ond look. Cur-
rently, the board
has no reconsid-
eration or appeal procedure.
Communicate more di-
rectly with those people who
have filed a complaint about
its status.
Implement term limits
for board members.
Spell out and strengthen
rules governing conflicts of
interest and recusal.
The Judicial Conduct
Board must embrace these
sorts of improvements to re-
gain not only the publics
trust in its abilities, but also
in the integrity of the court
system. By failing to do so, it
portrays itself as a lap dog
on the scene but essentially
useless.
OUR OPINION: JUSTICE SYSTEM
Judicial Board
must prove itself
In the now-in-
famous instance
involving Luzerne
Countys
courthouse, the
board bungled its
response

A
LLEGHENY Coun-
tys Court Records
Department will take
a huge leap into the
Internet age in the next few
months, when wills and some
related documents that al-
ready are public will become
accessible online.
This is the final, logical step
in the evolution of a depart-
ment that, until voters
changed the setup in 2005, in-
cluded the register of wills, a
clerk of courts for criminal re-
cords and a prothonotary for
civil court documents eachof
whom was elected. Voters we-
rent the only ones confusedby
the row offices and having to
choose the people torunthem.
It was President Harry Tru-
man, while in Pittsburgh, who
famouslyasked, What thehell
is a prothonotary?
Things have really changed,
and for the better. Criminal
and civil court records as well
as real estate transactions al-
ready are available online, and
county officials decided that
wills and probate records
should be as well.
Not all public documents
will be included, however, and
it seems county officials have
made the right exceptions.
The inventories that describe
indetail the assets of anestate,
as well as inheritance tax re-
turns, are public records that
will continue to be available at
the City-County Building, but
they wont be online.
For those concerned about
keeping the release of informa-
tion about assets private, its
important to remember there
are ways to avoid having a will
go through the public process
of probate. In addition, a judge
can decide to seal a will or oth-
er record for cause, an option
that we think should be exer-
cised sparingly.
Instead, as Eric Feder, there-
cords departments deputy di-
rector put it, the more access
to public records the better.
That, he said, is how govern-
ment is supposed to work.

SHOVEL-
ready was not
as shovel-
ready as we
expected,
observed
President
Obama last
week, enjoying a nice chuckle
about the unhappy fate of his
near-$1 trillion stimulus. To be
sure, Obama also has been
promoting a less amusing reme-
dy for anemic growth and high
unemployment: exports. In this
years State of the Union ad-
dress, he proclaimed a national
goal of doubling exports by
2014.
One obvious way to increase
exports is through free-trade
agreements. But unions dont
like them. No surprise then that
for two years Obama has been
sitting on three free-trade
agreements with Colombia,
Panama and South Korea
already negotiated by his prede-
cessor.
Under the pressure of dire
economic conditions and of the
consequences of stiffing three
valued allies, Obama appeared
ready to relent only to put up
a last-minute roadblock. Hes
demanding an expansion of
Trade Adjustment Assistance
taxpayer money (beyond unem-
ployment compensation) given
to workers displaced by foreign
competition, something denied
to Americans rendered unem-
ployed by domestic competi-
tion.
Its an idea of dubious fair-
ness but nicely designed to
hold up ratification, while plac-
ing blame on Republican heart-
lessness rather than on political
sabotage by Democrats behold-
en to unions for the millions
they pour into Democratic
coffers.
Nothing new here. In 2009,
Obama pushed through a feder-
ally run, questionably legal,
bankruptcy for the auto compa-
nies that robbed first-in-line
creditors in order to bail out
the United Auto Workers. Else-
where, Delta Air Lines workers
have voted four times to reject
unionization.
But Democratic fealty to
unions does not stop there.
Boeing has just completed a
production facility in South
Carolina for its new 787 Dream-
liner. The National Labor Rela-
tions Board, stacked with Dem-
ocrats including one former
union lawyer considered so
partisan that he required a
recess appointment after the
Senate refused to confirm him
is trying to get the plant de-
clared illegal. Why? Because by
choosing right-to-work South
Carolina, Boeing is accused of
retaliating against its unionized
Washington state workers for
previous strikes.
In fact, Boeing has increased
unionized employment by more
than 2,000 at its Puget Sound
plant. Moreover, the idea that a
company in a unionized state
can thus be prohibited from
expanding into right-to-work
states by a partisan regulatory
body is quite insane. It violates
the fundamental principle in a
free-market economy that com-
panies can move and build in
response to market conditions,
rather than administrative fiat.
Obama has been utterly
silent in the Boeing affair.
Which is understood by all as
tacit approval. Hes facing re-
election next year. And Demo-
crats need unions.
Of course, unions need Dem-
ocrats who deliver quite faith-
fully. In last years nationwide
shellacking of Democrats, for
example, Wisconsin gave Re-
publicans control of both legis-
lative chambers and elected a
Republican governor who made
clear his intention to rein in
public-sector union power.
When the Republicans tried
to do as promised, Democrats,
lacking the votes, tried to block
it by every extra-parliamentary
maneuver short of arson. State
Senate Democrats fled Wiscon-
sin to prevent a quorum. Dem-
onstrators filled the statehouse
for days and nights on end. And
when the bill finally passed
nonetheless, Dane Countys
Democratic district attorney
went to court to have it thrown
out on procedural grounds.
They found a pliant judge to
invalidate the law. A famous
victory, but short-lived. On
Tuesday, the Wisconsin Su-
preme Court overturned the
ruling, upbraiding the judge for
having usurped the legislative
power which the Wisconsin
Constitution grants exclusively
to the Legislature. The law is
reinstated.
The Wisconsin maneuver
ultimately failed, as likely will
the assault on Boeing. In the
interim, however, there is col-
lateral damage to U.S. ex-
ports, to the larger economy, to
bankruptcy law, to free trade, to
a constitutional system wherein
the legislatures make the laws,
rather than willful judges and
partisan regulators.
But what are those when
there are unions to appease and
elections to win?

ANOTHER VIEW
A photograph by Don Carey and
words by Mark E. Jones
DONT GET
me wrong. I
love cameras. I
really do. I just
dont have the
desire to stick
one down my
pants.
Call me crazy. I thought that
when you took a picture, you
had to step back, look through
the viewfinder and say, One,
two, three! Given former Con-
gressman Anthony Weiners
subject matter, youd have to be
a contortionist.
Since when did our private
parts constitute a photo?
Didnt a photo used to be
Mount Rushmore? Times
Square? Your kids on the way
to the prom?
Not anymore. Weiner (and
Im sorry, but the name alone
makes this story embarrassing)
has given new meaning to
flash photography. The dis-
graced Democratic U.S. repre-
sentative and wannabe mayor
of New York City has been
embroiled in a fiasco of his
own texting, sending lewd
pictures of himself to admiring
fans.
And to think, folks used to
be happy with an autograph.
Now, I wont ponder whether
Weiner should survive this.
Between Charlie Sheen, Newt
Gingrich, Tiger Woods and
Eliot Spitzer, I am convinced
that Americans will forgive you
anything but boredom.
So the fact that Weiner was
seemingly fascinated by his
own naked image, that he
played peekaboo like a kid in a
sandbox, that he actually pref-
aced a dirty photo with a text
that said, Wanna see? none
of it really concerns me, be-
cause (1) Im not voting for the
guy, (2) Im still in shock and
(3) I am worried, selfishly,
about something else.
When did I get SO OUT OF
TOUCH?
Honestly. There are many
wrongs that I can at least un-
derstand. There are tempta-
tions that I and we all
struggle to resist. But never
did I look at a camera and go,
Hmmm ...
He took pictures of what?
Somebody explain this to
me. Its not just the recently
resigned congressman. Could
Brett Favre, Mr. All About
Football, really have texted an
image of his privates to a New
York Jets employee? He once
seemed so ... sensible.
On a radio show, I recently
spoke to a woman who had
returned to the dating scene
after years of marriage. She
claimed she receives numerous
photos of private parts from
the men she dates some she
encourages, some she does not.
She also said she is in her
60s.
Heaven help us.
Have you ever heard of Jo-
hann Zahn? He was a 17th-
century German priest. He also
was an author, a student of
light and the man credited
with creating the idea of a
handheld camera.
I can just see old Johann
now, sitting in the abbey, ima-
gining how his invention could
change the world, allow history
to be preserved, help chronicle
the human race for future gen-
erations.
And dont forget, his trusty
sidekick chimes in, you can
shove it down your pants!
For the life of me, I will nev-
er get this. As a dedicated
practitioner of underwear, I
always have felt safest when
there is a layer of modesty
between my outside and the
outside.
Now comes Congressman
Weiner, the shutterbug who
keeps opening the shutters.
Youve heard of snap and
shoot? Now its unsnap and
shoot. This is his gift to his
constituents.
I think we need to bring back
Fotomat booths. Remember
them? You dropped your film
off, you came back the next
day, they handed you the
prints. It was supposed to be a
private transaction. But every
now and then, the person be-
hind the counter would smile
and say, Looks like you had a
nice vacation.
And you knew they peeked.
Maybe we need more of that.
Because the concept of shame
in America has gone the way of
the zipper: down and out.
Whats ironic is that Weiners
photos, developed the old-
fashioned way, could never
have been seen by millions the
way they have been now. Just
one lonely Fotomat guy, who
could have looked at the con-
gressman, raised an eyebrow,
and said, Really?
I miss those days.
Pants are no place for a private photo shoot

Essay contest
a positive event
O
n May 4, the Family Ser-
vice Association of Wyom-
ing Valley, Generation 2
Generation and The Times
Leader hosted an awards
ceremony for an essay contest
titled What I Most Learned
from my Parents or Grandpar-
ents. The event was held at
the First Presbyterian Church,
Wilkes-Barre, and had more
than 120 attendees.
The objective of the contest
was to reinforce the impor-
tance of positive parenting/
grandparenting. Without ques-
tion, the contest was a suc-
cess. We received more than
1,200 entries in five categories
(elementary, middle school,
high school, college and
adult).
I thank our panel of judges:
Gladys Weisberger, Sandy
Feldman, Juanita Namey,
Sandy Snyder, Carol Douds,
Frank Nockley, Alice Baran,
Christine Donollo, Toni Ci-
sowski, Barrett Zimmerman,
Rich Kramer, Marsha Basco,
Sandy Orlando, Essy Davido-
witz, Bernard Walters and
Mary Therese Biebel. Re-
viewing the essays was a mon-
umental task, and one our
judges completed with dili-
gence and fairness.
I also thank Rev. Robert
Zanicky of the First Presby-
terian Church for the wonder-
ful venue, Peking Chef and
Eric and Rosa Lee for provid-
ing dinner to the attendees,
Ramah Hackett for her well-
delivered words and for being

The project was a huge
undertaking and couldnt have
been accomplished without
enormous assistance from
Rachel Pugh, Rae Decker,

More than 1,200 people
spoke about the positive influ-
ence of their parents or grand-
parents. A finer message could
not have been heard about the
importance of family.

Thank you NEPA
for a fine Fiesta
T
he 56th annual Fine Arts
Fiesta has come and gone.
For four days on Public
Square, Wilkes-Barre, our
neighbors from Northeastern
Pennsylvania and beyond
celebrated with us the art,
culture and talents that are
rich in our area. We also were
exposed to artistry from
around the country with the
artists market.
It is not an understatement
to note that the city of Wilkes-
Barre, with the leadership of
Mayor Tom Leighton and City
Council, deserves credit for
Fiestas success this year.
Because of participation by
the police department, fire
department, department of
public works and other city
agencies, the public felt wel-
come to walk and mingle with
family and friends. By the
efforts of Lore Majikes and
Assistant Police Chief Donald
Crane, our grounds crew was
able to guide our stage per-
formers to and from the band
shell without any interruption
to programming and what
seemed little inconvenience to
area motorists.
Many comments were made
about how the public could
safely and easily stroll onto
and around Public Square.
Our children were entertained
with a puppet theater, stroll-
ing musicians and face paint-
ing on the portion of Public
Square closed to traffic.
Some downtown businesses
also opened their doors and
brought out tables with um-
brellas welcoming visitors to
leisurely stroll through their
stores, restaurants and our
downtown. Each evening
South Main Street had hun-
dreds of pedestrians walking
to and from Fiesta.
Numerous organizations
such as the Luzerne County
Historical Society, the Wyom-
ing Valley Art League and
high school musicians and
singing groups showcased
their books, maps, artwork,
and talents to the delight of all
who attended.
I thank all who contributed,
sponsored and volunteered for
this years Fiesta.
Thank you, Northeastern
Pennsylvania, for joining us in
celebrating Al Grohs 90th
birthday and recognizing the
legacy of the late Howard B.
Fedrick.
As Annette Evans and Groh
had envisioned 56 years ago,
the Fine Arts Fiesta gathers
people of all walks of life to-
gether in peace and creativity
in the heart of our city to
enjoy the arts.

HAPPY FATHERS DAY!
Support retention
of music at GNA
T
his is a plea for anyone
who has ever benefited
from the Greater Nanti-
coke Area School Districts
music department to call the
school board members and to
attend the meeting on Thurs-
day.
The board has been consid-
ering furloughing two music
teachers and possibly elim-
inating the chorus and the
band programs.
Our school board needs to
recognize that music is essen-
tial and extremely beneficial
in our district. I havent heard
of any sports being cut; but
when you take a step back,
what is a chorus or a band? It
is a group of students rehears-
ing regularly, learning reper-
toire and performing. No
sports team is as large as the
high school chorus, which
currently has 70 members.
Throughout the district,
there are more than 200 stu-
dents who are actively in-
volved in the music programs
and even more who participa-
te in the department-spon-
sored variety shows or musi-
cals. What does the district
suggest these students do
once it cancels their creative
and educational outlet?
I am a graduate of Nanti-
cokes Class of 2009 and am
studying vocal and piano
performance at Susquehanna
University. I was the president
of the Honor Society and the
class valedictorian. I am by no
means the exception, either.
One-third of the current Hon-
or Society at Nanticoke is
involved in the music program
as well as five of the top 10
students of the Class of 2011
(including the valedictorian
and both salutatorians).
There are clear benefits to
these programs, and the cur-
rent faculty has been very
successful, sending more
students to Pennsylvania
Music Educators Associations
district, regional and state
chorus and band competitions
than our district has in more
than a decade.
Please show your support
and urge these board mem-
bers to save our music pro-
gram. Every student deserves
to have the opportunity to
explore and develop his or her
musical potential, and our
school district is responsible
for providing that opportunity.
The struggle to save the
program will be nothing com-
pared to the difficulty of try-
ing to revive the program if it
gets cut. Once again, please
show your support on Thurs-
day at the school board meet-
ing.

Sterling site could
have many uses
O
ne of the reasons the Ho-
tel Sterling project failed
is the architects in the
design competition were
handcuffed into keeping the
existing building.
I have a great deal of respect
for the architect profession.
Without getting too technical,
let me explain.
Although they are a great
deal better than the moun-
tains of shale they replaced,
big box stores, strip malls and
parking lots cover the east
part of the Wyoming Valley.
On the other hand, River
Street between Pierce and
South streets provides the
architectural crown jewels of
the Valley. The west side of
the street has the courthouse,
River Common, bridges and
Kirby Park. The east side is
dominated by two beautiful
college campuses.
Whatever the Sterling site
becomes, it should not detract
from what I consider is not
only a part of the city or the
county seat, but the architec-
tural centerpiece of the Wyom-
ing Valley.
It could be more than just a
commercial real estate site.
It could be a joint-venture
engineering school between
Wilkes University and Kings
College. President Obama
recently said he wants to train
10,000 engineers a year.
It could be a public-private
venture between city, county
and both colleges, combining
common functions such as
facilities management.
It could support the recre-
ation at the River Common
and Kirby Park
It would be a good location
for a new City Hall.

MAIL BAG LETTERS FROM READERS
OSCAR WILDE, the
19th century author
and playwright, once
famously quipped,
People today know
the price of every-
thing and the value of
nothing. Whatever
the original context that sparked the
quote, Wildes assertion is food for
thought as our country grapples with
severe budget shortfalls, out-of-control
deficits, high unemployment and a
national debt numbered in the trillions
of dollars in short, the worst econom-
ic crisis since the Great Depression.
In such an economic environment,
Americans are becoming acutely aware
of the price of things from food,
housing, health care, transportation,
the education of our children, the
maintenance of essential infrastruc-
ture, to defense, and most poignantly,
the terrible costs (both monetary and
human) of war and the ongoing strug-
gle to secure our nation in an age of
global terrorism.
Obviously, there is an urgent need to
set clear fiscal priorities; the path we
are on is unsustainable. Yet, as the
process of forging a viable budget for
the fiscal year 2012 moves forward, we
must prioritize in a way that equitably
distributes the sacrifice while protect-
ing our most vulnerable citizens, those
struggling to meet basic needs.
Americans are a compassionate
people. There is more than ample
evidence for this throughout our histo-
ry. Yet, when Congress proposes a
federal budget each year, in our name,
our character as a compassionate na-
tion is put to the test. To paraphrase an
old adage: We put our money where
our values are. The federal budget is a
moral document and a barometer of
the nations soul.
I am disheartened that current bud-
get proposals focus on cutting vital
programs for people who are hungry
and in need many of them children.
On average, one in four children is at
risk of hunger in the United States.
This might seem preposterous, yet in
our area school-age children suffer the
effects of malnutrition. Ask David
Tevet, the owner of Ollies restaurant in
Edwardsville, who earlier this year
initiated an after-school meal program
for elementary school-age children.
After becoming aware of the need to
provide a hearty and nutritious meal
each day to needy children, he respon-
ded with a generosity that is truly
laudable. The letters he has since re-
ceived from grateful parents, grandpar-
ents, teachers and school adminis-
trators, plus a commendation from the
Office of Children and Youth Services,
attest to the need for innovative pro-
grams addressing childhood hunger.
In the five months following the
programs inception, Mr. Tevet absorb-
ed the total cost of the program, feed-
ing 40 children each week. Since then,
private donors have stepped in to foot
the bill. But for how long? The Dinner
for Kids program faces increasing de-
mand, as do many anti-hunger and
poverty programs in our area.
Private initiative and innovative
programming are vintage American,
yet government has a role to play in
partnering with people such as Mr.
Tevet to ensure that our most vul-
nerable citizens do not fall through the
cracks.
Historically, major deficit-reduction
packages exempted programs that met
the needs of hungry and poor people.
Yet current proposals will reduce our
deficit on the backs of people who can
least afford it. I am referring to pro-
grams such as the Supplemental Nutri-
tion Assistance Program (SNAP, for-
merly called food stamps).
More than 49 million Americans
including nearly 17 million children
live in households that have difficulty
feeding their families. Yet nutrition
programs such as SNAP are on the
chopping block. Other programs slated
for significant cuts include WIC, other-
wise known as the Special Supple-
mental Nutrition Program for Women,
Infants and Children.
It is worth noting that while unem-
ployment and poverty rates have risen
to record levels since 2008, the number
of families struggling to put food on
the table has not risen, largely because
of federal nutrition programs such as
SNAP and school meals. Thus, a circle
of protection should be placed around
programs that target hunger and pover-
ty while supporting families, many of
which are working poor families, strug-
gling to make ends meet.
There is no doubt that Congress
most immediate focus should be on
strengthening the economy and cre-
ating jobs. But cutting low-income
programs will only increase poverty
and cost the economy more in the long
run.
Consider these statistics from the
Bread for the World website
(www.bread.org):
Hunger costs our country an esti-
mated $90 billion annually in lost pro-
ductivity, reduced educational out-
comes and increased health care costs.
Poverty creates an additional $22
billion in health care spending per year.
Practically speaking, we cannot
afford the long-term costs resulting
from larger segments of the population
being pushed into poverty. Further-
more, we have a moral obligation to
protect and to care for the poor, the
vulnerable and all those in legitimate
need.
Numerous religious traditions tell us
that the moral fiber of a society is re-
vealed, most clearly, in how well (or
poorly) its neediest members are far-
ing. Current budget proposals do not
bode well for the least among us.
As Americans, we can do better.
Indeed, we must.
If we lose sight of the inherent value
and dignity of the human person, and
the moral imperative to care for one
another, then we will have lost some-
thing essential of our humanity and
our national character the humaniz-
ing value of compassion; and for this
we will pay a very heavy price.
Failing to care for the most needy will unravel societys moral fabric

here do we begin? Col-
lectively, we at St. Ma-
rys Assumption School
represent approximately 300
years of service in the pa-
rochial school system. Iron-
ically, we are having difficulty
finding just the right words to
express our sincere thanks to
our school family. The last
two months have been emo-
tional for everyone, especially
our parents and students
whose support is unmeasured.
St. Marys Assumption has
prided itself on spiritual
growth and academic excel-
lence since its humble begin-
nings with the Sisters of Chris-
tian Charity. A most sincere
thank-you goes to all of the
sisters, the former pastors of
St. Marys Assumption and
the pastors of Greater Pittston
who served faithfully to en-
sure our children celebrated
the sacraments at liturgy. We
have modeled our mission
statement of sending forth
faith-filled, lifelong learners.
And, we have taught our stu-
dents to become actively in-
volved in the life of their com-
munities by serving those less
fortunate.
Our parents, family and
friends always have demon-
strated their undying support,
dedication and love for any
activity or event connected
with St. Marys Assumption.
We have worn the Challen-
ger name proudly.
Our HSO, headed by Holly
Frederick and her fellow offi-
cers, as well as our Recruit-
ment/Retention Committee,
comprised of parents led by
Erin Berlew, Carol Cicon,
Mark Casper and Joe Jumper,
have organized numerous
events in the past weeks in an
attempt to create memories
that will last forever. Thank
you to anyone connected with
these organizations, and thank
you to every family that has
passed through the halls of
our beloved school for five
generations.
We believe these school
groups have succeeded, and
we wanted the participants to
know that the faculty, staff
and administration are most
grateful. We cannot begin to
thank them for every little
kindness extended to us in
these final days as a school
community. Your soothing
words, hugs, tears, smiles and
your unending generosity will
never be forgotten.
We will carry a piece of St.
Marys Assumption with us
wherever we go, and we know
you will do the same. But, for
now, we say, Gods blessings
and peace to our parents,
students, families and
friends.

Marino quickly
begins spending
A
fter a new congressman is
elected, how long does it
take the Washington, D.C.,
political culture to compro-
mise his principles? Apparent-
ly it does not take too long, as
my local newspapers article
on freshman Congressman
Thomas Marino illustrates.
His indoctrination into the
capitals political culture ap-
parently has taken hold.
Congressman Marino was
the Tea Partys favorite to
represent the people of the
10th District. He was to go to
Washington and put his foot
down on the runaway federal
spending that is destroying
the economy.
Being a quick study, Con-
gressman Marino must have
realized that staying in Con-
gress depends on how much
money a representative can
bring to the home district for
select special interests.
I have to give Marino credit
for his choice of a special
interest: Williamsports Chil-
drens Development Center.
Williamsport Sun-Gazette
reporter Mike Reuthers arti-
cle doesnt specifically state
so; however, it is heavily im-
plied that Congressman Mari-
no wants to provide some
federal funding for the center.
I thought that if Congress was
going to save the country from
economic self-destruction,
everyone had to make sacri-
fices. But Rep. Marino seem-
ingly intends to do just what
all the other lawmakers in
Washington apparently are
doing with the intent to get
re-elected: spend, spend,
spend.
It was clever of Mr. Marino
to use children as cover for his
anticipated spending binge.
After all, who would deprive
childrens programs of ade-
quate funding? In 21st century
America, children are no long-
er the responsibility of their
parents, rather wards of the
government.
I guess the voters of the
10th District can now realize
their hopes for a fiscally re-
sponsible representative have
burst, and it didnt take too
long.

Oral sex causing
hike in disease
I
felt compelled to write this
letter because of a much-
neglected health problem.
Oral sex is more common
than people realize and even
more dangerous, because it is
the young people, sometimes
starting at ages 11 and 12, who
engage in this sexual act,
thinking it a safe way to en-
gage in what some people
dont consider a sexual act,
thanks to former President
Clintons proclamation.
All kinds of sexually trans-
mitted diseases can be con-
tracted, with potential long-
term and, in some cases, dead-
ly consequences. To elaborate,
15 percent of all reported
cases of syphilis are contract-
ed through oral sex. Severe
gonorrheal tonsillitis, pharyn-
gitis, chlamydia, HIV and
AIDS are other diseases that
can be transmitted via this
route.
The most important prob-
lem is passing on the HPV
virus, which can cause cancer
of the cervix in women and
venereal warts in both sexes.
Even more devastating is the
alarming increase of mouth
and throat cancers, referred to
medically as oropharyngeal
cancers. These cancers are
difficult to treat and can cause
debilitating problems. The
frightening statistic is that
there has been a 287 percent
increase in this type of cancer,
proven to be caused by the
HPV virus, which was trans-
mitted via oral sex. This is an
astounding statistic.
Parents should seriously
consider getting their young
children, male and female,
vaccinated against the HPV
virus.
Also, if one wants to contin-
ue practicing oral sex, then in
addition to this vaccination he
or she should use protection
in the way of condoms or
dental dams.
I know this is a delicate
subject, but it is one that must
be promulgated because the
problem is getting worse. I
will address any group of
people interested in hearing
more about this problem.

Writer disputes
disaster letter
I
n the letter to the editor
Writer says indiscretions
are to blame for disasters
(June 3), an author argues
that our immoral actions are
to blame for natural disasters
that are caused by the Chris-
tian god.
While Gods existence is
questionable, as I have argued
in previous letters to the edi-
tor, the author commits vari-
ous logical fallacies.
The first problem with the
argument is surprisingly men-
tioned by the author himself:
Natural disasters are noticed
much more now. But this is
primarily because of more
news coverage and advanced
technology much more than
we had a century ago. Natural
disasters, of course, always
have existed and have claimed
many lives. The 1931 China
floods, for example, according
to CBC news in Canada, killed
1 million to 2.5 million.
The second fallacy is the
false cause fallacy. The au-
thor sees various events and
links them, although he pro-
vides no evidence to back his
claim. The author sees immo-
rality and says: Aha! Look!
This is to blame!
We should look for more
reasonable and probabilistic
naturalistic explanations rath-
er than assume that an all-
loving God exists who created
a universe with natural disas-
ters that kill innocent people,
including infants, who had
nothing to do with others
actions.
Is it reasonable to believe
that because of divorce and
gay marriage that God killed
about 230,000 in the 2004
Indian Ocean tsunami or
about 222,000 in Haiti? There
is no good reason to suppose
that an all-loving god exists in
a universe with so much de-
struction.

Ideas offered
to revitalize park
I
am in full agreement with a
previous letter to the editor
that offered suggestions to
revitalize Moon Lake Park.
Families from the Back
Mountain, mine included,
have enjoyed this outdoor
treasure until recently, when
cutbacks in the Luzerne Coun-
ty budget necessitated briefly
closing the park, and later
reopening it with fewer avail-
able amenities. Then, a series
of break-ins and a lack of regu-
lar maintenance caused fur-
ther damage.
Recently, Luzerne County
commissioners were discuss-
ing investing $80,000 (one-
half funded from outside and
one-half by the county) to
finance a study to determine
what residents would like to
see happen with the park. I
think its time we said
enough to spending on re-
dundant studies and assess-
ments.
Our commissioners should
approach this situation from
the perspective of county
residents. We have been asked
to cut back in our personal
spending. Now, more than
ever, families need low-cost
recreational opportunities.
Moon Lake Park provides the
ideal destination.
How do you make the park
user-friendly, cost-effective
and keep it in good repair?
Why not host a series of pub-
lic meetings and ask residents
for their ideas? That wouldnt
cost anywhere near $80,000.
Perhaps the Luzerne Coun-
ty Convention and Visitors
Bureau can pitch in with find-
ing ways to promote the park.
How about inviting civic,
social and church-related
organizations, Leadership
Wilkes-Barre, etc., to band
together under an all-volun-
teer umbrella advocate orga-
nization, Friends of Moon
Lake Park, to share in spon-
soring cleanups, picnics and
other activities that will bring
people to the park.
Would it be a stretch to ask
the Luzerne County Trans-
portation Authority if it would
create a bus route from the
downtown Intermodal Center
to the park a few times a week
during the warmer months so
city dwellers, especially chil-
dren, without personal trans-
portation could visit?
Invite the YMCA, Catholic
Youth Center, Jewish Commu-
nity Center and Day Camp
and similar entities to join in
the planning and restoration
in exchange for free or re-
duced user fees.
Fix the pool, canoe/paddle-
boat rental shanty, snack bar
and campground. Increase or
implement fees for all park
amenities, but keep the in-
creases reasonable. Dig deep
into the budget to find the
money to employ area young
people to work at the park
during the summer. Reopen
and staff the nature center
beginning in the spring so
school groups can once again
enjoy visiting and being out-
doors to learn about the envi-
ronment. Charging a small
program fee should generate
funds to help cover costs for
the center.
How about the local news
media? Would any representa-
tives of our newspapers or
broadcast media consider
taking on a project at the park
in the spirit of community
service?
Would establishing the park
as a nonprofit entity make it
more appealing as a recipient
of fundraising efforts? Of
course, someone would be
needed to research and apply
for grants, charitable gifts and
donations. Done on a volun-
teer basis, the preparer could
be compensated based on a
percentage of the grant.
While I am not nave
enough to believe any of these
suggestions are foolproof,
easily doable or will suffice to
quickly bring the park back to
its full potential, I think they
are worth considering. Per-
haps it is time we look in our
own backyards for solutions
and no longer turn a deaf ear
to any and all suggestions
offered.
Call me a leftover idealist
from the 1960s, but I truly
believe we can come together
as a community to take charge
of situations and issues that
directly affect us on a local
level. Other communities have
done it; why not in Luzerne
County?

requiring for-profit schools to
make sure their students are
able to pay back federal loans,
and a Senate committee is
poised to begin drafting legis-
lation. In addition, 17 state at-
torneys general are reviewing
the industry for possible vio-
lations of consumer protec-
tion statutes. The aim is to
protect both students and tax-
payers.
Not all for-profit schools are
implicated in wrongdoing, but
various investigations have
found problems, particularly
with those that derive most of
their revenues from federal
student aid.
A government investigation
from last year found practices
such as overly aggressive
recruiting, where school rep-
resentatives barraged poten-
tial students with phone calls,
gave false information about a
colleges accreditation, poten-
tial salary and job opportuni-
ties after graduation, and doc-
tored federal aid forms. Inves-
tigations have also noted that
tuition at for-profits can cost
thousands of dollars more,
even as much as 30 times the
price of comparable programs
at community colleges.
Other investigations found
that for-profit recruiters heav-
ily target low-income and mi-
nority students, veterans and
people whose parents have
never gone to college. Enroll-
ment at for-profits has in-
creased fivefold in the past
decade to nearly 2 million.
Students often choose to at-
tend these colleges for a varie-
ty of reasons, including the
hope of getting a degree fas-
ter, a perception that the
classes may be easier, and the
availability of night and week-
end classes.
However, degrees from for-
profit institutions often dont
lead to good careers. Data
from several investigations at
the federal and state level sug-
gest that the public invest-
ment in educating students at
some for-profits isnt a good
deal for taxpayers, or for
many students. Thousands of
students have taken out feder-
al loans to attend a for-profit
college, only to default on
them.
According to the U.S. De-
partment of Education, for-
profit colleges educated
around one in 10 students in
2008, but these students took
out nearly a fourth of all feder-
al student financial aid dollars
around $24 billion of tax-
payer money. They also ac-
count for almost half of loan
defaulters. In many of the
larger for-profit schools, fed-
eral dollars account for
around 90 percent of reve-
nues.
Harris Miller, the chief ex-
ecutive officer and president
of the Association of Private
Sector Colleges and Universi-
ties, said for-profits arent at
fault.
The default rate among
students is not based on
whether a school is profit or
not-for-profit. Its based on the
demographics of the student
population, Miller said in an
interview.
We accept and try to edu-
cate students that the tradi-
tional higher education sys-
tem is not interested in edu-
cating or is not willing to edu-
cate, he said.

career goals in country music.

shows debut or return between now and
August.
Some of these shows are on broadcast
TV. The competition Americas Got Tal-
ent has resumedonNBC, pairedwiththe
ongoing The Voice, and So You Think

offers The Bachelorette.
But finding first-run comedy or drama
will mostly require turning to cable,
where 11 networks will debut 15 scripted
showsthissummer. Hereare10of thenew

mer and are worth a look:
TeenWolf,10p.m. MondaysonMTV.
Less like the Michael J. Fox comedy
with which it shares a title and more in
theTwilight or VampireDiaries vein,
this darknewTeenWolf stars Tyler Po-
sey as Scott McCall, a high-school stu-
dent who is bitten and becomes a were-
wolf. Teen angst ensues as Scott tries to
figure out whats happening to him,
while also connecting with newgirl Alli-
son (Crystal Reed), who has a secret of
her own. Tyler Hoechlin plays Scotts
mysterious mentor in the sometimes
scary drama from Jeff Davis, creator of
Criminal Minds.
The Protector,10 p.m. Sundays on
Lifetime.
Ally Walker (Profiler) returns to TV in
another P series, this timeas LAhomicide
detective and single mother Gloria Shep-
pard, whos raising two boys and sharing a
house with her brother (Chris Payne Gil-
bert). TishaCampbell-Martinplays her part-
ner, with Miguel Ferrer (Crossing Jordan)
as their lieutenant. The Protector feels fa-
miliar, likeashowweusedtolikebut hadal-
most forgotten. But its easygoingmixof pro-
cedural andfamilydrama will appeal tofans
of the Lifetime brandand, especially, to fans
of Walker.

HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Technical difficulties
will clear up in stages.
Patience will be required.
The best problem solv-
ers frequently say,
Interesting... Instead
of getting angry, they
get curious about how
things work.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Youre a smooth operator.
You make people think
they are coming up with
an idea that was originally
yours. Your way of man-
aging others is virtually
undetectable.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
There is a burbling excite-
ment over recent develop-
ments in your personal
life. Its too soon to predict
how a certain relationship
will grow, but once you
resolve to have a good
time, it all works out in
your favor.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Your friends help you, and
you help them. No one
is keeping score, and yet
everything seems to be
balanced. Things work out
naturally and effortlessly,
which feels nice.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
sometimes feel like its a
waste of time to daydream
and project yourself into
a future that may or may
not happen. However, that
is the very best use of
your time today. Its the
start of a genius plan.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You communicate with
loved ones to keep every-
thing on track. Formal
meetings are not neces-
sary if you do this well. It
will involve eye contact
and double-checking to
make sure youve been
heard correctly.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Time wont stop for you,
but you can keep it from
slipping through your
fingers. Cling to it as it
speeds past. Hang on tight
because youre in for a
wild, thrilling ride.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
You may go into social
hibernation today as you
process relationship issues
and recent events through
your mind and heart. Its
not painful work, but it
does take time.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You have a funny
way of explaining yourself
and will entertain people
even when that is not
what you meant to do.
Your sense of humor will
attract new friends and
endear old ones.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Youre a hard worker
and a wise one, too. When
its time to stop and rest,
you make sure you have
adequate time to do so. To
skip that part would put
your future productivity in
jeopardy.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Take your show on
the road. Get out and see
people, especially strang-
ers. Even if you dont offi-
cially talk to anyone, it will
do something positive for
your spirit to show up in
the public swirl.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
When you see what you
want, you immediately
check the price tag. In
todays instance, this may
cause sticker shock, but
youll get right to work fig-
uring out how to come up
with the goods.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (June
19). You will be extremely
careful about the people
and elements you let into
your world, and this selec-
tivity will keep you among
the best and brightest this
year. Your desire to make
the world a better place
will lead you to care for a
wounded soul in August.
October brings a happy
domestic upgrade, per-
haps a move. Cancer and
Sagittarius people adore
you. Your lucky numbers
are: 2, 41, 21, 5 and 16.

DEAR ABBY
Woman stops short of
going through with divorce
Dear Abby:
Im a 38-year-
old man
who is in
love with a
45-year-old
woman. She
was married for 20 years and
has three children. She was
separated for two years be-
fore we started dating.
She and her ex are ex-
tremely civil, and she spends
nights at his house in order
to see the children. I support
her in this because I dont
ever want her to feel like Im
making her choose. Her ex
doesnt want her back, nor
does she want to reconcile.
This morning she had an
appointment with a divorce
lawyer and came home say-
ing she isnt ready to do it.
Shes afraid her ex will be-
come vindictive and use the
kids as leverage. She says
she loves me, but shes wor-
ried that it isnt fair for me. I
told her relationships arent
always fair.
I dont know what to say
or do. I love her, but how do
I comfort her?
Standing by in
Pennsylvania
Dear Standing By: Your
lady friend may be separated
from her husband, but shes
not yet ready to move on.
Or, the lawyer may have said
something that frightened
her. She may need profes-
sional counseling and more
time before shes ready to
take the next step and end
the marriage.
Dear Readers: I offer good
wishes not only to fathers
everywhere, but also to
those caring individuals who
donate their time to mentor
youngsters whose fathers are
absent or deceased.
Many readers have asked
me for a prayer in memory
of a father who is no longer
living. The following prayer
is from the Hebrew Union
Prayer Book, and is recited
on Yom Kippur, the Day of
Atonement.
IN MEMORY OF A
FATHER
Thy memory, my dear
father, fills my soul at this
solemn hour. It revives in
me thoughts of the love
and friendliness which thou
didst bestow upon me. The
thought of these inspires me
to a life of virtue; and when
my pilgrimage on earth is
ended and I shall arrive at
the throne of mercy, may
I be worthy of thee in the
sight of God and man. May
our merciful Father reward
thee for the faithfulness
and kindness thou has ever
shown me; may He grant
thee eternal peace. Amen.

The only one of the 10 spotlight

The Hot Zone) also is the only
newscripted showpremiering this
summer on one of the broadcast
networks. A British-Canadian co-

Afghanistan in 2006 and tells the
stories of doctors and nurses work-
ing with NATOs security force.

as fresh as it does. Credit, possibly,
the casting of Patrick J. Adams,
billed as a heartthrob for his ap-
pearances on ABCFamilys Pretty

plays Mike Ross, a brilliant college
dropout whos just about to go seri-
ously wrong in life, with Gabriel
Macht as the corporate lawyer who
sees something in Mike and cuts
corners to bring himinto the firm.

State of Georgia, 8:30 p.m.
June 29 on ABC Family.
Silly and a bit too noisy but
hard to dislike, this new sitcom
stars Raven-Symone as Georgia, a
confident and exuberant aspiring
actress, and Majandra Delfino as
her best friend, a science geek. To-
gether, with the help of Georgias
Aunt Honey(Loretta Devine), they

In this extension of the BBCs
Torchwood, people all over the

On Thursday, the Truckers will
perform at the Norva Theater in
Norfolk before finishing up the
summer even farther south with
dates in North Carolina, Alabama
andGeorgia.
Since forming in 1996, the Ath-
ens, Ga., by way of-Alabama, band
has developed a reputation as one
ofthemostexhilaratingliveactson
theroadtoday, thanksinparttothe
twin-guitar attack of Hood and his
fellowsinger-axemanMikeCooley.
Together, the pair also shares the
bulk of the songwriting duties,
composing separately or some-
times in tandem, like a Southern-
fried version of Jagger-Richards.
The results detail the hardships of
Americanlife, witha decidedly be-
low-the-Mason-Dixon-line bent.
The songs also possess a palpa-
ble dark side: The six-pieces latest
album, Go-Go Boots, has its fair
shareof murderballads. Somesay
too much, chuckles Hood, a life-
longmoviefanwhoseappreciation
for the medium inspired vividly
cinematictracks suchas TheFire-
place Poker and Used to Be a
Cop.
My songwriting is as influen-
ced by filmas it is by records. And
the subject matter even more so,
Hood says. I think this record ex-
plores more of that than any weve
done so far.
With so many albums under
their belt Go-Go Boots is the
groups 11th Drive-By Truckers
have a war chest of songs from
whichtodrawonstage. And, Hood
says, theydoit all without aset list.
We decide the first song, which
is probably the hardest part, and it
just flows from there, he says. A
lot of it has to do with what were
getting from the audience. Some
rooms, the quiet songs work really
well, andinothers, they get totally
lost. Some nights its better to just
put your headdownandrockhard.
But its funandit keeps it fresh. No
two shows are ever the same.
That rare quality is furthered by
some playful competition in the
band.
We try to challenge each other
by pulling out songs that dont get
played as much. Cooley has been
pulling out Sounds Better in the
Song, which is one of my favorite
songs on (2003s) Decoration
Dayalbum,Hoodsays. Wehard-
ly every playedit whenit was new,
because it just got lost, but nowits
kindof a showstopper.
Andhis partner isnt above play-
ing Stump the Truckers either,
Hood reveals with a laugh. We
havehandsignals(todecidewhois
going to sing). Ill point to Cooley,
andhell takeoff. If itsasongweall
start together, then we really have
tobeready, becauseheisnot afraid
to try to stump us. Infact, he takes
great pleasure in stumping us, he
says. Usually it works really well,
but occasionallyit doesnt, andthe
trainwrecks. But thats kindof fun,
too. Rock-n-roll shouldnt be too
safe. Thats part of what got
rock-n-roll in such dire straits. It
got too safe and too predictable
andstartedboring people.
Theres nofear of that at aDrive-
By Truckers concert. The often
two-hours-plus affairs are sweaty,
cathartic tent revivals, a mix of
rock, countryandevenR&Bsongs,
all tied together by the stories
Hood frequently tells before select
numbers. (Listentohis introto18
Wheels of Love on the bands
Live fromAustin, Texas CD.)
When we put this band togeth-
er, mygoal wastohaveabandthatI
would really like. I go to a lot of
shows, and I thought, what show
would I like to see if I were going
out? Hoodsays. Andfor themost
part, thats where we landed.
Enough people have agreed that
were able to make our living at it.
SoImthankful for that. I thinkthe
live showis the best thing we do.

The Coffins of Little Hope is
great summer reading a lazy
river that carries you away and
drops you off much farther
downstream than you expected
to go.
This breezy but deceptively
plot-packed little novel starts
and ends placidly in small-town
Nebraska. Our narrator is S
Myles (not an initial, but short
for Essie, which is short for Esth-
er, thank you).
Shes 83 and
still doing the
job shes had
since girlhood:
writing obitu-
aries for her
familys strug-
gling newspa-
per, the Coun-
ty Paragraph.
She isnt slowing down. Busi-
ness is picking up for this sleepy
burgs chronicler of death.
Snoozer? Keep reading. The
towngrabs the national spotlight
and wont let go.
First, Daisy, a woman who
lives on a farm outside of town,
claims that her daughter was ab-
ducted by her lover. But no one
remembers ever having met the
lost Lenore.
Is it a hoax? Was Lenore even
real?
Its the story of a lifetime, and
the Paragraph milks it like a
prize Holstein. The story is irre-
sistible to national media. Soon,
even S has a cult following for
her folksy, albeit thinly reported,
obits.
Also, a famous author has
hired the Paragraph to print the
final volume in a megapopular
young-adult series. Before publi-
cation, Daisy takes to the CB ra-
dio and reads from what she
claims is the upcoming book, ti-
tledThe Coffins of Little Hope.
Even casual fans pull over to
the side of the road, hanging on
every word.
Howdid Daisy get a copy? Did
she steal it? Or did Lenore write
it? Whatever the answer, the
town is under a spell.
Says S: Only a moment of si-
lence passed before the people in
the cars up and down the road
honked their horns and flashed
their lights, a spontaneous ges-
ture of community. We all heard
it, we all seemedto be saying. We
all were there.
Author Timothy Shaffert hits
some bumps when he tries to im-
pose another story line on the
novel that of Essies two mid-
dle-age grandchildren, Ivy and
Doc, gently struggling over who
should raise Ivys teenage daugh-
ter Tiff.
While the abduction is de-
scribed in detail, the Myles fam-
ily portrait feels like a sketch.
More depth might have made
them seem a little more real.
Part Fannie Flagg, part Ste-
phen King, Shaffert spins a tale
thats funny, poignant and, at
times, macabre.
Small town
stars in
charming
mystery
By JEREMY KOHLER
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
The Coffins of Little Hope by
Timothy Shaffert; Unbridled (262
pages, $24.95)
At the start of Kate Chris-
tensens sharp, perceptive
novel, poet Harry Quirk has
been thrown out of his apart-
ment in The Astral in the
northern Brooklyn neighbor-
hood of Greenpoint by his
wife, Luz, who suspects hes
having an affair.
Hes not, but Luz has found
a number of seemingly in-
criminating poems that fuel
her suspi-
cions, and
Harry can
say nothing
to convince
her other-
wise. Harrys
poetry is at
best old-fash-
ioned, favor-
ing traditional meter and
rhyme schemes, and at worst,
so hopelessly out-of-date that
it cannot even be considered
retro-hip. Its a crafty move on
Christensens part to have
these poems, which Luz de-
stroys, be the catalyst for Har-
ry to rebuild his life.
And as Harry reflects on his
marriages trajectory, decon-
structing its fabric to find out
what went wrong and how to
fix it, hes also endeavoring to
engage meaningfully with his
grown children. Karina is a
levelheaded freegan (or
trash-bin diver, in simplistic
terms) living in Crown
Heights; Hector has recently
joined up with a commune
that Harry and Karina sus-
pect is really a religious cult.
And in another sly twist, its
only when Harry seeks help
for Hector that hes provided
fresh insights that prompt
him to completely reassess
his relationship with Luz.
As an introspective look at
what makes a marriage work,
and what doesnt Harrys
interactions with his married
friends provide a number of
perspectives on this topic
Christensens The Astral is
provoking and at times pro-
foundly moving. But it also
succeeds in its fond descrip-
tions of a neighborhood vir-
tually unknown outside of
New York (and all too often
written off within it), an area
that even in its perhaps inevi-
table gentrification persists
in holding on to its gritty
Old World ways. So-called
hipster interlopers live amid
Polish immigrants and old-
timers, and Christensen cap-
tures it all magnificently,
down to the decaying majesty
of the once-grand building
honored in her title.
Author offers introspective look at marriage

The Astral (Doubleday), by
Kate Christensen
P
HILADELPHIA When AdamMansbachs book is made into a movie, it could be the first
bedtime-story filmadaptation thats rated R. Its hard to see howit could be avoided: Mans-
bachs book is called Go the F--- to Sleep.
Go the F--- to Sleep is a plea to Mansbachs 3-year-old, Vivian, to please, for the love of all that is
holy, go to sleep. The book reads and looks like many other less explicitly worded childrens books
Goodnight Moon, perhaps, or Where the Wild Things Are. Its written in couplets, such as:
The cats nestle close to their kittens, The lambs have laid down with the sheep. Youre cozy and
warm in your bed, my dear. Please go the f--- to sleep.
The books rectangular shape and
size are perfect for being held in a
childs tiny hands, not that it should
be. The package is completed with
florid illustrations by Ricardo
Cortes.
Every parent has felt this type of
agita: a mixture of undying love and
utter frustration that they cant ac-
complish the seemingly simple task
of putting their kid down for the
night.
It wasnt that there were tears
and screaming, Mansbach said
about trying to get Vivian to bed. It
was a steady, joyous refusal to go to
sleep.
Parents are responding in kind.
Go the F--- to Sleep has spent 50
days on the Amazon.com best-seller
list, largely holding the top spot it
was at No. 2 when we checked Mon-
day even though its official publi-
cation date was the next day.
The books success is a huge sur-
prise for Mansbach, a novelist who
recently finished up a post as the
New Voice Processor of Fiction at
Rutgers-Camden, where he taught
fiction-writing to graduate students
and lectured on screenwriting and
the history of hip-hop. Hell soon be
heading home to Berkeley, Calif., af-
ter spending two years in Philadel-
phia.
Mansbach thinks Go the F--- to
Sleep is a hit not only because of the
universality of the frustrations he ex-
presses but also because its become
taboo to talk about those frustra-
tions. As much as theres a conver-
sation about parenting in this cul-
ture, its verymuchabout appearanc-
es, Mansbach said. Many of the
emails hes received from readers
thank him for making them feel less
alone when it comes to the hand-
wringing, hair-pulling ritual of bed-
time.
It was that universality that con-
vinced Johnny Temple, publisher
andeditor-in-chief of Akashic Books,
toaddthebooktohis companys rep-
ertoire. At first, Temple, who had
known Mansbach for years before
working with him professionally,
thought that the concept was hilari-
ous but that it wouldnt fit in with
the rest of Akashics titles gritty
literary fiction and politically mind-
ed nonfiction.
But then Temple, who has two
young sons, sent the book around to
his wife and their friends with chil-
dren. I got such an incredibly emo-
tional and cathartic reaction, Tem-
ple said. He had to publish it.
The seed of the book began as a
throwaway Facebook joke. He
thought it was funny enough to go
beyond a one-liner so he put pen to
paper. Now its taken on an over-
sized kind of role in my life, Mans-
bach said.
In April, Mansbach debuted the
book at Phillys Fourth Wall Arts Sa-
lon, a monthly gathering where art-
ists can show off their work. The
next day, he checked the Amazon
rating and saw that it was in the
125th spot, a relatively good number
considering the massive Amazon in-
ventory.
By the next week, it was No. 1.
Everywakingmoment has beena
continuation of a What the hell?
moment, Mansbach said about the
books runaway success.
When Go the F --- to Sleep start-
ed to blowup on the Amazon charts,
bigger publishing houses came
knocking at Mansbachs door, offer-
ing to buy the manuscript from
Akashic. But Mansbach decided to
stick with the indie publisher, which
uppedthe initial runof 10,000copies
to 200,000 and moved the publish-
ing date from October to last
Wednesday.
Then the movie studios came a-
calling, with Fox 2000 snapping up
rights to the filmversion. Mansbach
didnt offer to write the screenplay,
mainly because he has noidea howit
could be done.
Go the F --- to Sleep is on par to
outsell his previous works, including
the California Book Award-winning
The End of the Jews and Angry
Black White Boy. Those two novels
and others hes written deal with is-
sues of ethnic identity in the 21st cen-
tury.
But Mansbach doesnt see his first
humor book as a stark departure
from his other published pieces.
The throughline of my work is that
Ive done pretty much whatever the
hell Ive wanted to do, so, in that
sense its (Go the F --- to Sleep) no
different, he said. Plus, its way eas-
ier to explain the plot.
But hes not yet ready to showit to
Vivian, his inspiration.
I know her as a 3-year-old but I
dont knowwhat shell be like at 8 or
12, Mansbach said. Shes already
got a fantastic sense of humor. Shes
a lot funnier and smarter than I am.

Playing dress-up or running
around the park, kids can be so
darn cute. Until its 3 a.m. and
they wont go the (bleep) to sleep.
The F-bomb plea is the title of a
buzz-magnet of a book parody by
Adam Mansbach written in kid-
friendly rhyme but decidedly
unworthy of a bedtime read-aloud.

Story and Photos by
Marianne Tucker Puhalla
Advertising Projects Writer
A meticulous home in a great loca-
tion that is the quick overview of 315
Countrywood Dr., in the Countrywood
Estates section of Hanover Twp. With
views that encompass much of the Wyo-
ming Valley, this great home is located
just off Middle Road in a relatively new
development near to the Wyoming Val-
ley Country Club.
Although it is listed as seven years
old, with mature landscaping to match,
you will likely think it is brand new
inside and are sure to be taken in by
the perfectly kept hardwood ooring,
carpeting and modern dcor.
Listed by Michael Slacktish of Centu-
ry 21 Signature Properties for $259,000,
this home offers three bedrooms, and a
total of four baths, all set on a mani-
cured 196-by-100 lot. An adjacent lot,
also measuring 100-by-196, is available
for sale for an additional $35,000. You
can see all there is to offer at an Open
House today from 12-1:30 p.m.
Throughout, there are plenty of large
windows, tile and hardwood oors. Two
front-facing porches and a patio to the
rear make it easy to enjoy the scenic
setting.
The exterior is wrapped with taupe
vinyl siding with darker gray shutters
and white trim. There is a concrete
drive that leads to the attached two-car
garage, with plenty of space for extra
off-street parking.
A covered porch takes you into an
oak hardwood foyer with a staircase
ahead to the second oor. A left from
the foyer opens into the 18-by-12 living
room. A bay of front-facing windows
brings in plenty of natural light to this
comfortable room with a great view.
To the rear of the living room is the
15-by-11 dining room, offering atrium
doors that open to a front-facing porch.
This space has hardwood oors, beige
walls, and two rear-facing windows that
bring in plenty of natural light.
The nearby eat-in kitchen measures a
spacious 22-by-11 and has a tan ceramic
tile oor designed to match tan and
white speckled laminate countertops
over oak cabinets. There is a single
window set above the double stainless
sink. Appliances include a stove, dish-
washer, microwave and refrigerator. A
nearby pantry closet has bi-fold doors.
There are vertical blinds on sliding
doors that open from the breakfast area
to a rear concrete patio.
Like-new home offers convenient location
