Luzerne County Manager Rob-
ert Lawtonmet withWilkes-Barre
Mayor TomLeighton on Wednes-
day afternoon to introduce him-
self and discuss the Hotel Ster-
ling, among other issues.
Lawton and Leighton said no
decisions were reached on the
Sterling, and another meeting
may be necessary.
Lawton will
present his rec-
ommendation
on the countys
future involve-
ment in the
downtown
Wilkes-Barre
landmark on
April 10.
Several well-
placed insiders
say theres a
growing senti-
ment among
the county ad-
ministration
and county
council toward
walking away from the project in-
stead of investing more funding
on demolition or additional pres-
ervation.
The city is involved because it
hasnt beenable toreachanagree-
ment with the county needed to
proceed with demolition of the
building. The delay largely stems
from the citys unwillingness to
forgive an estimated $50,000 in
demolition permit fees.
Leighton said the city cant af-
ford to give up the fees, which
would be paid by the demolition
contractor, though he is open to
negotiationstowaivethefeeinex-
change for county assistance in
other projects.
The mayor has stressedthe city
already agreed to provide about
$250,000instategamingfundsto-
ward demolition.
We always hada great working
relationship with county officials,
and I look forward to that contin-
uing withthe newformof govern-
ment, Leighton said.
The city could end up footing
the bill for demolition if the coun-
ty doesnt get involved because
the city condemned the structure
and the Sterlings nonprofit own-
er, CityVest, is out of funds.
CityVest is expected to file for
bankruptcy if the county doesnt
agree to take over the project.

jackpot up for grabs, plenty of folks are fanta-
sizing how to spend the money. But doing it
the right way protecting your riches, your
identity and your sanity takes some
thought and planning.
Making sure you dont blow the nations
largest-ever lottery jackpot withina fewyears
means some advice is in order before the
Mega Millions drawing Friday, especially if
youre really, really, really lucky.
Q: What do I do with the ticket?
A: Before anything else, sign the back of
the ticket. That will stop anyone else from
claiming your riches if you happen drop it
whileyourejumpingupanddown. Thenmakea
photocopy and lock it in a safe. At the very
least, keepit where youknowits protected. A
Rhode Island woman who won a $336 mil-
lion Powerball jackpot in February hid the
ticket in her Bible before going out to
breakfast.
Q: What next?
A: Relax; breathe; take time to
think about your next move.
Dont do anything youll regret
for the next 30 years, like call-
ing your best friend or every
one of your aunts, uncles and cou-
sins. It doesnt take long to be over-
Say youve just won half a billion

With a $500 million multistate
lottery jackpot up for grabs
on Friday, plenty of folks
are fanta-
sizing.
WASHINGTON Conclud-
ing three days of fervent, public
disagreement, a Supreme Court
seemingly split over ideology
will now wrestle in private
about whether to strike down
keyparts or evenall of President
Barack Obamas historic health
care law. The justices decision,
due this June, will affect the way
virtually every American re-
ceives and pays for care.
The court wrapped up public
arguments Wednesday on the
overhaul, which is designed to
extendhealthinsurance tomost
of the 50 million Americans
now without it. The first and
biggest issue the justices must
decide is whether the center-
piece of the law, the require-
ment that nearly all Americans
carry insurance or pay a penalty,
is constitutional.
Wednesdays argument time
was unusual inthat it assumeda
negative answer to that central
question. What should happen
to other provisions, the justices
and lawyers debated, if the
court strikes down the require-
ment? If the justices are follow-
ing their normal practice, they
had not even met to take a pre-
liminary vote in the case before
all argument concluded.
Questions at the court this
week days showed a strong ide-
ological division between the
liberal justices who seem in-
clined to uphold the law in its
entirety and the conservative
justices whose skepticismabout
Congress power to force people
to buy insurance suggests deep
trouble for the insurance re-
quirement, and possibly the en-
tire law.

Area residents attending two meetings
with Director Joanne Corte Grossi, who
oversees HHSs operations in six states,
voiced support for some of the bills most
sweeping changes and concerns about oth-
ers.
But mostly, they had questions about
how the bill will affect the health care they
are receiving and their access to care.
Grossi first spoke to a crowd of approxi-
mately 50 people at the Kingston Senior
Center about howthe bill will impact Medi-
care coverage in particular, and said
As the U.S. Supreme Court debated the
constitutionality of the federal health care
reform bill Wednesday, the bill also stirred
debate in the Wyoming Valley, as the re-

quences for health care consumers in Penn-

KINGSTON Even though
its proposed Alternative
Learning Centers building
project failed, the Luzerne In-
termediate Unit is fully com-
mitted to serving at-risk stu-
dents, LIU Executive Director
Hal Bloss said Wednesday
evening.
He told the LIU Board of Di-
rectors the unit has mandated
an Alternative Education Task
Force composed of represen-
tatives of member school dis-
tricts.
Over approximately three
years, the task force will re-
search the needs of at-risk stu-
dents, develop a plan for ad-
dressing those needs and then
implement that plan to maxi-
mize academic potential and
modify behaviors, Bloss said.
Bloss also lauded Filomena
Covert, LIU director of curri-
culum and instruction, for
working to align the units
common core standards with
national standards.
Compliance with these
standards makes students
ready to move into college or
career better equipped to suc-
ceed.
Bloss also said he expected
the LIU budget to be passed
this summer with a 5 percent
reduction in spending.
Bloss also announced his re-
tirement, effective next year.
Tony Grieco, assistant execu-
tive director, will take over
that position, and the assist-
ant executive director posi-
tion will not be filled.
Bloss said it has been a
pleasure to serve with others
willing to work diligently to
make education better for all
those students served by the
LIU.

FASHIONABLE FUNDRAISER
AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER
B
rothers Tyler, Max and Bryce Casey showed off their argyle sweater vests and jeans
Wednesday night during the Spring Fashion Show at Wyoming Valley West Middle
School in Kingston. Students, faculty and children of the faculty participated in the
show, which raised funds for the Dinner 4 Kids program and Candys Place.
WASHINGTON The
House voted decisively late
Wednesday to reject a bipartisan
budget mixing tax increases
with spending cuts to wring $4
trillion fromfederal deficits over
the coming decade.
The 382-38 roll call paved the
way for Republicans to muscle
through their own, more strin-
gent budget today, a measure
that would blend deeper spend-
ing reductions in safety-net pro-
grams for the poor with a plan to
dramatically overhaul Medicare.
The vote also underscored the
partisan polarization dominat-
ing Washington this election
year, with leaders of both parties
showing little inclination to
compromise and let the other
side claim a victory.
The bipartisan measure re-
jected Wednesday was pat-
ternedona planbyPresident Ba-
rack Obamas 2010 deficit com-
missionandwas writtenbymod-
erate Reps. Steve LaTourette,
R-Ohio, and Jim Cooper, D-
Tenn.
This is the only bipartisan
way to solve the nations prob-
lems, Cooper said.
When you know you have a
good deal is when the left and
right are pounding the snot out
of you, and thats whats happen-
ing today, LaTourette.
House Budget Committee
Chairman Paul Ryan, R-Wis.,
was the only lawmaker to speak
against the plan, saying it relied
too heavily on tax increases and
not enough on spending cuts.
The plan won praise fromout-
side budget experts. But GOP
leaders have been unwilling to
stray from party principles on
taxes, while top Democrats have
shown no give on cuts to social
programs.
The bipartisan alternative
was similar to a proposal crafted
by former White House chief of
staff Erskine Bowles, a Demo-
crat, and former GOP Sen. Alan
Simpson of Wyoming, co-chair-
men of Obamas deficit commis-
sion, whose package ended up
being ignored by lawmakers.
The measure, like the Simp-
son-Bowles plan, called for a tax
overhaul that would bring the
top tax rate down from 35 per-
cent to 29 percent or lower, fi-
nanced by repealing various tax
breaks, deductions and credits.
Overall revenue would rise by
$1.2 trillion since the money
raised by eliminating dozens of
tax breaks would exceed the rev-
enue lost by lowering rates.
The vote came shortly after
the Republican-run chamber
unanimously rejected Obamas
$3.6 trillion budget for next year
in a roll call forced by GOP law-
makers to embarrass Demo-
crats.
Republicans have opposed
Obamas budget all year, criticiz-
ing its tax increases on the
wealthy and saying it lacks suffi-
cient spending cuts.
House rejects bipartisan budget
Republicans will push their
own plan, with deeper
spending cuts.

PARIS An intense and con-
troversial restoration of the last
great work by Leonardo da Vinci
goes before the public on Thurs-
day at the Louvre Museum re-
vealing The Virgin and Child
with Saint Anne in the full pano-
ply of hues and detail painted by
the Renaissance master 500
years ago.
The 18-month-long restoration
of the painting that da Vinci la-
bored on for 20 years until his
deathin1519will goa longwayto
raising Saint Anne to its place
as one of the most influential Flo-
rentine paintings of its time anda
step towards the high Renais-
sance of Michelangelo.
The cleaning has endowed the
painting portraying the Virgin
Mary with her mother, Saint
Anne, and the infant Jesus with
newlife andluminosity. Dull, fad-
ed hues were transformed into
vivid browns and lapis lazuli that
had visitors awe-struck.
Its unbelievable, so beautiful.
Now you have that same feeling
as when you enter Michelange-
los restoredSistine Chapel. Look
at the blue! one visitor, Odile Ce-
lier, 66, said on Wednesday.
The exhibit brings together
some 130 preparatory drawings
and studies by da Vinci and his
apprentices something cura-
tor Vincent Delieuvin likened to
a police investigation trac-

night from someone claiming
to be an officer with the
Pittsburgh Police Depart-
ments traffic division.
The woman said someone
sounding like a young male
stated her nephew had been
arrested for drug possession
during a traffic stop.
The caller asked the wom-
an to post bail for her neph-
ew through Western Union.
While the caller was pro-
viding a routing number to
wire $2,000, the woman hung
up.
Police warned against giv-
ing information out over the
phone and asked anyone who
has a similar request for
money to contact them
through Luzerne County 911.

Luzerne County 911 Executive Direc-
tor Dave Parsnik said theres a simple
way to rectify an ambulance dispatching
disagreement in Harveys Lake, and he
cant fathom why it wont be followed.
The countys new $1.8 million com-
puter-aided dispatch system is set up to
alloweach municipality to designate the
first two responders to be summoned to
an emergency, he said.
The county now requires responders
to inform 911 when theyre unavailable
so the systemwill automatically contact
the next available unit on the list.
Parsnik said Harveys Lake ambulance
is first on the borough list but does not
want to alert 911 when its unavailable.
This notification of unavailability re-
quires a quick call to a 911 supervisor,
Parsnik said, noting that all responders
in the 75 other municipalities are com-
plying.
The Kunkle ambulance is second on
the borough list but would be called first
if the Harveys Lake ambulance indicates
its unavailable, he said.
All we want themtodois tell us when
theyre not in service, Parsnik said.
Instead, the Harveys Lake ambulance
wants 911to simultaneously summonits
unit and Kunkle ambulance, a practice
thats been in place for years.
The 911systemis programmedtocon-
tact responders one at a time, in part so
multiple responders wont be called to
an emergency, potentially wasting re-
sources, Parsnik said.
Borough residents could be impacted
by the disagreement because the second
responder isnt summoned until up to
nine minutes pass without action by the
County 911, Harveys Lake in stalemate
Dispatching protocol creates snag
Luzerne County 911 intragovernmental
coordinator Joseph Lynch has resigned
effective April 5.
County 911 Executive Director Dave
Parsnik said Lynch accepted another
position with better pay, noting that
county non-union employees have not
received raises in several years.
Lynch receives $35,500 in his county
position.
Hes a true professional. He is an
integral part of our communications
and is very knowledgeable about emer-
gency response, Parsnik said.
Lynch started at 911 in 2000 as a tele-
communicator, according to news ar-
chives.

Luzerne County Controller
Walter Griffith has released his
plan for audits that will be com-
pleted in 2012.
The schedule, presented to
county council Tuesday, is re-
quired by the new home rule
charter.
His audit list:
17 magist-
erial district
judges offices.
Assessors
office.
Prison
commissary
fund.
Special le-
gal fees of the court.
Home rule transition com-
mittee.
He also plans to complete per-
formance audits of the following:
Convention and Visitors Bureau,
Bureau of Elections, Human Re-
sources Department and sheriffs
office weapons.
The performance audits will
determine if laws, policies and
procedures are being followed,
he said.
For example, Griffith said he
wants to see if human resources
is following the county personnel
code. The election bureau audit
will check the time and attend-
ance records of employees, and
he said he will examine the same
records inother offices as time al-
lows.
Griffith told council most of
the financial audits must be com-
pleted by outside companies be-
cause the three workers in his of-
fice dont have educational qual-
ifications needed to complete
them according to recognized
governmental auditingstandards
a new requirement under the
countys home rule charter.
The outside companies would
be paid from a $50,000 consult-
ant allotment in his 2012 budget.
Griffith said about 20 to 80
hours of continuing-education
credits over two years would be
required to meet the standards.
He wants to use money in his
budget to provide this education
training for his workers.
Griffith highlighted several ex-
amples of audits completed by
his office since he became con-
troller in2010that have savedthe
county money and increased the
tracking of expenses.
County Councilman Stephen
A. Urbansaidthe home rule char-
ter allows the controller to audit
outside boards and authorities,
and he advised Griffith to audit
Luzerne County Community
College, which receives $6 mil-
lion in county funding annually
in addition to money for capital
projects.
Griffithsaidhe agrees but cant
commit to additional audits be-
cause of budgetary cuts in his of-
fice.

KINGSTON Six months after an 86-
year-old pedestrian was killed when a bus
backed over him, the Luzerne County
Transportation Authority board has au-
thorized a study of its operations at the
James F. ConahanIntermodal Transporta-
tion Center.
Without discussion on the issue, the
boardvotedunanimouslyTuesdaytohave
Reilly Associates, a Pittston-based a pro-
fessional engineering, environmental,
surveying and inspection firm, conduct a
study tosuggest enhancements for the op-
erations of the intermodal at a cost not to
exceed $12,500.
During public comment, Valerie Kepn-
er, of the citizen-formed Public Transpor-
tation Advisory Council, said she hears
regularly from bus drivers that the inter-
modal is causing some serious issues
with people being safe, and asked if the
study was safety-related.
Solicitor JosephBlazoseksaidthestudy
would take a look at our operations and
give us some suggestions (and address)
some concerns.
He noted that other entities work at the
intermodal as well, such as Martz Trail-
ways, and the intermodal also contains a
parking garage. Were trying to just see
howour part might fit in a little better, he
said.
The board likely discussed the study
during a closed-door session preceding
the meeting, during which Blazosek said
personnel and litigation were discussed.
The authority, the city of Wilkes-Barre
and the designer of the intermodal are be-
ing sued by the family of Edward Rehill of
Wilkes-Barre, who was killed when a bus
backed over himat the intermodal in Sep-
tember.
Kepner suggested that Reilly Associ-
ates meet with the Ridership Committee
to discuss concerns and ideas. Authority
LCTA authorizes study of intermodal center
Move comes after a man was killed by
a bus that was backing up. Reilly
Associates of Pittston will do study.

The LCTA board meets next at 3 p.m. May 15
in the administrative offices, 315 North-
ampton St., Kingston. The Ridership Com-
mittee will meet there at 2 p.m. on the
same date and also at a time yet to be
decided in April.

WILKES-BARRE The spot where
Babe Ruths legendary longest home run
came to rest will be marked for post-
erity.
Former city councilman Tony Thomas
Jr. said Wednesday that a kiosk will be
placed at the site of the disputed homer
in Kirby Park. The three-sided marker
which cost $3,600 -- will be erected in
time for a dedication ceremony during
the citys Cherry Blossom Festival next
month.
According to a story that ran on Oct.
13, 1926 in the Wilkes-Barre Morning
Record, Ruth was at Artillery Park to
play in an exhibition game between
Hughestown and Larksville. Ruth played
for Hughestown and he challenged
Larksville hurler Ernie Corkran to throw
him his best stuff -- a fastball right down
the heart of the plate. Ruth hit the ball
that some say was still rising when it
cleared the fence -- a distance of 400 feet
from home plate.
When I hit that ball, it felt as if it was
going to be the best clout I ever took at
one, Ruth was quoted in the Record
story.
Ruth never retracted the story and 85
years later, the feat will be memorial-
ized.
Clem Norman of Larksville came up
with the idea and approached Thomas in
2007.
When I heard the story, I thought this
is an amazing baseball event, Norman
said. And the ball was hit by arguably
the best baseball player who ever lived.
Thomas said 14 donors have given
$3,100 another $500 is needed to com-
plete the job. Donations can be sent to
the Luzerne Foundation, he said.
The kiosk has been built. Jim Ryan,
the city clerk, said it is in its shipping
box waiting to be unpacked and erected.
Merle Mackin, executive director of
the Luzerne County Visitors Bureau,
said the kiosk will be a tourist attraction.
Im sure many people will come to
visit this site, Mackin said. Sports his-
tory is big.
Thomas said he remembers hearing
the legend for many years.
Ive been hearing about this home
run since I was a kid, Thomas said. So
we decided to mark the spot.
Ruths granddaughter, Linda Ruth To-
setti, will attend the dedication on April
28, Thomas said. When she spoke at a
Teeners League Baseball banquet in
2009, Tosetti was asked about plans to
place the marker.
I think it would be great to have a
marker at Kirby Park, Tosetti said. It
would honor my grandfather and also
bring national attention to Wilkes-Barre
and its people.
Kiosk will mark the spot where a ball hit by N.Y. Yankee legend
Babe Ruth landed after he blasted it out of Artillery Field in 1926
DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER
Planners Jim Ryan, Janet Layman-Hall, Merle Mackin, Tony Thomas Jr. and Clem Norman work on placement of a marker to
commemorate the legendary home run hit by Babe Ruth at Artillery Field in 1926 at Artillery Park.

HARRISBURG -- A bill requir-
ing juvenile court judges to go on
record with their reasons for
placement is on its way to Gov.
Tom Corbett for his signature.
It is important that we put in-
to law protections that prevent
any repetition of the kids for
cash scandal that tainted the ju-
venile justice system in Luzerne
County, said
Sen. Lisa Baker,
R-Lehman
Township, the
bills sponsor.
Senate Bill
818 stems from
one of dozens
of suggestions
that emerged from the Inter-
branch Commission on Juvenile
Justice, a special state commis-
sion set up to examine the judi-
cial system in the wake of the
scandal, Baker said.
Requiring a judges reasoning
to be part of the record will allow
judicial officials and advocacy
groups to detect imbalance or
misconduct if sentences are be-
ing handed out that are inconsis-
tent with the offense, Baker
stated.
The vote on SB-818 was 48-0.
State Sen. John Yudichak, D-
Plymouth Township, said the ju-
venile justice scandal in Luzerne
County brought to light govern-
ment corruption at its worst.
And Senate Bill 818 is the first
step toward righting those
wrongs, Yudichak said.
He also stressed the need for
the General Assembly to act on
other bills that would address
other shortcomings in state law.
Senate Bill 815, expected to be
voted on by the House this week,
would require that counsel be
present at juvenile delinquency
hearings. The other two bills in
the legislative package, Senate
Bills 816 and 817, would require
the proposed Office of VictimAd-
vocate to represent and advocate
for theinterests of victims of juve-
nile crime and restricts the use of
restraints on juveniles during
court proceedings, respectively.
Baker bill requires judges give reasoning for juvie placement
Bill is headed to Gov. Tom
Corbetts desk. Bill stems
from kids for cash scandal.

It would allow Pennsylvanians

PHILADELPHIA
Priest: Porn, letter found
S
everal Roman Catholic priests have
testified in a landmark clergy-abuse
case, including one who said Wednes-
day that he found pornography and a
lewd letter to a boy in the rectory.
The priests are prosecution witness-
es in the trial of a longtime supervisor
in the Philadelphia archdiocese, Mon-
signor William Lynn. The former secre-
tary for clergy is charged with endan-
gering children by allegedly helping
the church cover up abuse complaints.
The Rev. Joseph Okonski told jurors
Wednesday that he found a box of
pornographic magazines and videos in
another priests bedroom in 1995.
Okonski said he informed his pastor,
who did nothing. But he soon called an
archdiocesan official after finding the
sexually explicit letter to a seventh-
grade boy, which purported to be from
a classmate and asked if the boy want-
ed oral sex.
SARASOTA, FLA.
Teen guilty in 2 killings
A Florida jury has found a teenager
guilty of first-degree murder in the
slayings of two British tourists last
April.
It took the jury two hours to reach a
verdict Wednesday against 17-year-old
Shawn Tyson. He faces a life sentence.
Tyson was convicted of shooting
25-year-old James Cooper and 24-year-
old James Kouzaris. They were vaca-
tioning in Sarasota and spent an eve-
ning drinking when they got lost and
walked into a housing project where
Tyson lived.
Witnesses testified Tyson intended
to rob the men but shot them instead.
KABUL, AFGHANISTAN
Militants suspend talks
A major Afghan militant group is
following in the Talibans footsteps by
suspending talks with the United
States and the Kabul government,
another setback to efforts toward a
peaceful resolution to the decade-long
war.
The insurgent faction Hezb-i-Islami
was abandoning talks because they had
produced nothing practical, said the
groups European representative, Qari-
bur Rahman Saeed. Earlier this month,
the Taliban announced it was breaking
off dialogue with the U.S.
Part of the U.S.-led coalitions exit
strategy is to gradually transfer securi-
ty responsibility to Afghan forces. An-
other tack is to pull the Taliban and
other militant factions into political
discussions with the Afghan govern-
ment.

Plow driver, wife accused
A Vermont snowplow driver who
wanted to get a girl was accused
Wednesday along with his wife of lur-
ing a popular prep school teacher from
her home by pretending their vehicle
had broken down, beating and stran-
gling her, stripping her body naked and
throwing it into the Connecticut River.
Allen Prue, 30, and Patricia Prue, 33,
of Waterford, pleaded not guilty to
second-degree murder in the death of
Melissa Jenkins, whose SUV was found
idling along a remote road near her St.
Johnsbury home on Sunday with her
unharmed 2-year-old inside.

WASHINGTON Global warming is
leading to such severe storms, droughts
and heat waves that nations should pre-
pare for an unprecedented onslaught of
deadly and costly weather disasters, an
international panel of climate scientists
says in a report issued Wednesday.
The greatest danger from extreme
weather is in highly populated, poor re-
gions of the world, the report warns, but
no corner of the globe from Mumbai to
Miami is immune. The document by a
Nobel Prize-winning panel of climate
scientists forecasts stronger tropical cy-
clones and more frequent heat waves,
deluges and droughts.
The 594-page report blames the scale of
recent and future disasters on a combina-
tion of man-made climate change, pop-
ulation shifts and poverty.
In the past, the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change, founded in 1988 by
the United Nations, has focused on the
slow inexorable rise of temperatures and
oceans as part of global warming. This
report by the panel is the first to look at
the less common but far more noticeable
extreme weather changes, which recently
have been costing on average about $80
billion a year in damage.
We mostly experience weather and
climate through the extreme, said Stan-
ford University climate scientist Chris
Field, who is one of the reports top edi-
tors. Thats where we have the losses.
Thats where we have the insurance pay-
ments. Thats where things have the poten-
tial to fall apart.
There are lots of places that are already
marginal for one reason or another, Field
said. But its not just poor areas: There is
disaster risk almost everywhere.
The scientists say that some places,
particularly parts of Mumbai in India,
could become uninhabitable from floods,
storms and rising seas.

BAGHDAD Arab countries,
divided over how to stop Syrias
bloodshed, plantocall for theSyr-
ian regime to halt its crackdown
on civilians, let in humanitarian
groups and free detainees, ac-
cording to recommendations
Wednesday by foreign ministers
preparingfor asummit this week.
EvenbeforeArabheads of state
began their summit today in the
Iraqi capital,
Syria sharply
rejected any
measures they
take. A Syrian
Foreign Minis-
try spokesman,
Jihad Makdes-
si, said Damas-
cus would not

initiative that
might come
out of the 22-
member Arab
League.
Therejection
reflected Da-
mascus refusal to work with the
League after the pan-Arab body
suspendedSyriasmembershipas
punishment for the bloody crack-
down on protesters demanding
theousterof President BasharAs-
sad. The U.N. says that over the
past year, more than9,000 people
have been killed in the violence.
Meanwhile, Syrian activists
saidWednesdaya government of-
fensive in northern Syria during
which troops overran a major op-
position stronghold has left be-
hind scenes of destruction, with
corpses in the streets, homes
burned to the ground and shops
that have been pillaged and loot-
ed.
Reports were of 40people dead
in Saraqeb, was the latest in a
string of opposition strongholds
to fall to ruthless assaults by the
better-equipped Syrian military.
Most of those strongholds andar-
eas around them have since seen
renewed flare-ups in violence.
Arabcountriesaredividedover
how aggressively to intervene in
Syrias turmoil. Gulf nations, par-
ticularly Saudi Arabia and Qatar,
are believed to want to start pro-
viding weapons to Syrias rebels
and even carve out a safe area
inside the country that the oppo-
sitioncanuseasastagingground.
Iraq, the host of this weeks
summit, is more cautious. Bagh-
dads Shiite-dominated govern-
ment is close toIran, Assads clos-
est ally, and is wary of hurting
those ties.

HAVANA Pope Benedict XVI de-
manded more freedom for the Catholic
Church in communist-run Cuba and
preached against fanaticism in an un-
usually political sermon before hundreds
of thousands at Revolution Plaza, with
President Raul Castro in the front row.
Later, the presidents brother, revolu-
tionary leader Fidel, grilledthe pontiff on
changes in church liturgy and his role as
spiritual leader of the worlds Catholics, a
Vatican spokesman said.
Benedicts homily was a not-so-subtle
jab at the islands leadership before a vast
crowd of Cubans, both in the sprawling
plaza and watching on television. But he
also clearly urged an end to Cubas isola-
tion, a reference to the 50-year U.S. eco-
nomic embargo and the inability of 11
American presidents and brothers Fidel
and Raul Castro to forge peace.
Cuba and the world need change, but
this will occur only if eachone is ina posi-
tion to seek the truth and chooses the
way of love, sowing reconciliation and
fraternity, he said. The remark built up-
onthe famedcall of his predecessor, John
Paul II, who said in his groundbreaking
1998 visit that Cuba should open itself
up to the world, and may the world open
itself up to Cuba.
With the countrys leadership listening
fromfront-rowseats, Benedict referredto
the biblical account of howyouths perse-
cuted by the Babylonian king preferred
to face death by fire rather than betray
their conscience and their faith.
He saidpeople findfreedomwhenthey
seek the truth that Christianity offers.
Ontheother handtherearethosewho
wrongly interpret this search for the
truth, leading them to irrationality and
fanaticism; they close themselves up in
their truth and try to impose it on oth-
ers, he said from the altar in front of an
image of Cubas revolution hero Ernesto
Che Guevara.
The comments were an unmistakable
criticism of the Cuban reality, said the
Rev. Joseph Fessio, a former student of
Benedicts, even if the pope didnt men-
tion the government by name.

LAS VEGAS A JetBlue
captain who yelled about a
bombandurgedpassengers to
pray on a Las Vegas-bound
flight has beensuspended, the
airline said Wednesday.
Clayton Osbon has been
takenoff activedutypendinga
reviewof the incident, JetBlue
Airways spokeswoman Alli-
son Steinberg said. Passen-
gers wrestled Osbon to the
ground after his bizarre rant,
as a co-pilot shut him out of
the cockpit and took com-
mand of the Tuesday morning
flight from New York.
Passengers first noticed
something was wrong when
Osbon stormed out of the
cockpit and tried to force his
way into an occupied bath-
room. The captains co-work-
ers tried to calmhimas he be-
came more jittery, coaxing
him to the back of the plane
while making sure he didnt
return to the planes controls.
Then he sprinted up the ca-
bins aisle, ranting about a
bomb, screaming Theyre go-
ing to take us down! and urg-
ing confused passengers to
pray.
Nobody knew what to do
because he is the captain of
the plane, said Don Davis,
the owner of a Ronkonkoma,
N.Y.-based wireless broad-
band manufacturer who was
travelingtoSinCity for a secu-
rity industry conference.
Youre not just going to
jump up and attack the cap-
tain, Davis said.
But four men did just that,
using seat belt extenders and
zip tie handcuffs to restrain
and pin Osbon to the floor for
more than 20 minutes while
the co-pilot and an off-duty pi-
lot who was aboardlandedthe
plane in Amarillo, Texas.
JetBlue suspends captain who had outburst
Clayton Osbon has been
taken off active duty

Irace may have told his girl-

when he fled Weis Market with
packages of meat he allegedly
stole.
Shortly after he allegedly
made the statement, Wilkes-
Barre Township police arrested
himand charged himwith steal-
ing items from two department
stores on multiple days, accord-
ing to court records.
Irace, 40, last-known address
as Harding, was arraigned Tues-
day in Wilkes-Barre Central
Court on charges he stole items
from The Home Depot in
Wilkes-Barre and food items
from Weis Market in Nanticoke.
Court records say that since
2008, Irace has had seven sepa-
rate retail theft convictions
based on arrests by police in
Wilkes-Barre Township and
Wyoming, and state police at
Tunkhannock. He is also facing
drug charges in county court for
allegedly selling heroin and
crack cocaine to state police
troopers within an hour on Dec.
8, 2010, in Wilkes-Barre, and a
retail theft charge by Wilkes-
Barre Township police alleging
he stole a television valued at
$350 from Target on March 20,
2011.
In another related case, Irace
appeared Wednesday before
District Judge Michael Dotzel in
Wilkes-Barre Township, where
he waived his right to a prelimi-
nary hearing, sending two retail
theft counts to county court. In
that case, township police allege
Irace stole about $250 in elec-
tronics from Kohls Department
StoreonDec. 10, 2011, according
to arrest records.
According to the latest crimi-
nal complaints:
Wilkes-Barre police say Irace
stole two power tool kits valued
at $458 from The Home Depot
on Spring Street on Feb. 22.
Nanticoke police allege Irace
entered Weis Market on Feb. 5,
2009, and walked out of the
store without paying for several
packages of meat. Irace got into
a vehicledrivenbyhis girlfriend.
When she realized he stole
meat, Irace told her, Dont wor-
ry, I do this all the time, accord-
ing to the criminal complaints.
The retail theft charges filed
against Irace are graded as felo-
nies because he has more than
three prior retail theft convic-
tions.
Irace remains jailed at the
county prisonfor lack of $10,500
bail.
Preliminary hearings for the
latest criminal complaints are
scheduled for April 4 before Dis-
trict Judge Donald Whittaker in
Nanticoke and April 5 in Central
Court.

WILKES-BARRE A man
charged last week with stabbing
his girlfriend multiple times was
resentenced this week for a vio-
lation in a criminal trespassing
case involving the same woman.
The probationary sentence of
Joseph Dunaj, 27, with a last
known address of Kelly Street,
Luzerne, was revoked Tuesday,
and a county judge resentenced
him to three to six months in the
countys Intermediate Puni-
shment Program and two years
probation.
Judge William Amesbury said
Dunaj will be eligible for parole in
June and his probation would be-
gin in September. Dunaj is incar-
cerated at the Luzerne County
Correctional Facility.
Dunaj had been charged with
criminal trespassing in Novem-
ber 2010 when he entered the
Mark Drive, Hanover Township,
home of Lisa Scoffone through a
window.
Police said Scoffone called
them three times notifying them
Dunaj was violating a protection-
from-abuse order.
Dunaj was originally sen-
tenced on the charge in May 2011
to eight to16 months in the coun-
tys IPP with the first eight
months on house arrest, as well
as an additional two years proba-
tion.
Court papers indicate Dunaj vi-
olated his sentence in July when
he did not report to probation
that he was taking Xanax, a drug
commonly used to treat anxiety
and panic disorders.
The second, and most recent
violation, came last week when
Dunaj was charged with stabbing
Scoffone multiple times on
March 5.
Police say Dunaj forcedhis way
intoScoffones home andstabbed
her in the chest, neck and face.
Scoffone suffered life-threaten-
ing injuries and underwent sur-
geries at Geisinger Wyoming Val-
ley Medical Center in Plains
Township.
Dunaj is currentlyscheduledto
appear at a preliminary hearing
on April 17 on charges related to
the stabbing.

SAN FRANCISCO Prose-
cutors on Wednesday filed mur-
der charges, with allegations of
robbery and burglary, against a
man accused of killing five peo-
ple inside a San Francisco
home.
Binh Thai Luc, 35, was
charged with five counts of
murder with special circum-
stances of committing multiple
murders, robbery and burglary,
according to court documents.
Luc faces an additional spe-
cial circumstance of lying in
wait in the death of 32-year-old
Yuan Ji Vincent Lei, the docu-
ments show.
Those enhancements make
Luc eligible for the death penal-
ty if convicted, though prosecu-
tors have not yet said whether
they plan to pursue that sen-
tence.
The Vietnam native was ar-
rested Sunday after five bodies
were found Friday at a crime
scene so gruesome and complex
that authorities took days to iden-
tify the victims and a suspect. Po-
lice initially thought they were
dealing with a murder-suicide.
The victims were Lei; his par-
ents Hua ShunLei, 65, andWanYi
Xi, 62; his sister Ying Xue Lei, 37;
and his girlfriend Chia Huei Chu,
30.
Prosecutors said in the court
documents that a blunt instru-
ment was used in the killings but
gave no other details.
They did not immediately re-
spondtorequests for comment af-
ter the charges were filed.
Investigators have not dis-
cusseda possible motive andhave
released few details about the cir-
cumstances surrounding the
deaths, only saying that they be-
lievetheoccupants of thehousein
the citys Ingleside District were
targeted.
The court documents filed
Wednesday also listed special al-
legations against Luc for previ-
ously being convicted of felonies.

PHILADELPHIA Pennsyl-
vania students who dont com-
ply with an upcoming immuni-
zation deadline will likely find
themselves unable to attend
school, state and local officials
warned this week.
New state vaccine guidelines
took effect this school year, put-
ting Pennsylvania in line with
recommendations from the fed-
eral Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention. They mandate
several extra shots, including
ones against mumps, chicken
pox and meningitis.
Students who were not up-to-
date on their inoculations when
school started last fall were giv-
en an eight-month grace period.
That expires on May 1 for many
districts, though the deadline
can vary depending on when
classes started.
Officials in some school dis-
tricts say they have repeatedly
notified students and parents
about the deadline, yet many
have not complied. Students
must be vaccinated to attend
school, with few exceptions.
The new regulations require
children in all grades to receive
a seconddose of mumps vaccine
and a second dose of chicken
pox vaccine.
Students in seventh grade al-
so must have one dose of menin-
gitis vaccine, and one dose of
the tetanus, diphtheria andacel-
lular pertussis inoculation. The
shots must be appropriately
spread out.
Statewide, about15percent of
kindergarteners and 24 percent
of seventh-graders were not up
to date as of October, according
to figures from the state Health
Department.

SCRANTON A federal judge
on Wednesday sentenced Daniel
Pruveadenti, 26, of Hanover
Township, to 95 months in
prison for receiving and dis-
tributing child pornography.
U.S. District Judge James
Munley also placed Pruveadenti
on probation for life.
Pruveadenti pleaded guilty to
the crimes in December, ad-
mitting he used a computer to
download and share images of
child pornography between
2003 and March 8, 2011.
A federal grand jury indicted
Pruveadenti and his brother
Derek, 22, last year after an
investigation conducted by an
Internet crime unit of the FBI
and the Pennsylvania State
Police.
Last month, Munley sen-
tenced the younger brother to
five years in prison for his guilty
plea to using a computer to
download images of child por-
nography.
He also was placed on proba-
tion for 20 years.
The brothers must comply
with sex offender registration
requirements upon their release
from prison.
WILKES-BARRE A city
man charged with threatening
two women and carrying a sto-
len gun was acquitted Wednes-
day of several related charges.
James Rish Featherstone, 32,
of Irving Place, was found not
guilty of charges of possession
of a firearm, receiving stolen
property, firearms not to be
carried without a license and
terroristic threats after a Lu-
zerne County jury deliberated
for 35 minutes.
Featherstone was represented
by attorneys Ferris Webby and
Danielle Bruno. Assistant Dis-
trict Attorney Frank McCabe
prosecuted the case.
Judge Joseph Sklarosky Jr.
granted a request for a judg-
ment of acquittal on additional
charges of harassment and driv-
ing with a suspended license.
Featherstone was charged in
May 2011after police said he
was carrying a stolen .357-cali-
ber handgun when he threat-
ened two women known to him
at a motel on state Route 315.
PLAINS TWP. Two men
accused by state police at
Wyoming with throwing rocks,
potatoes and plumbers putty at
passing vehicles on Interstate 81
waived their rights to prelimina-
ry hearings Wednesday before
District Judge Diana Malast.
Samuel Gensel, 20, of Wilkes-
Barre, and Robert Dalessandro
Jr., 21, of Plymouth, each
waived 19 counts of propel mis-
siles at occupied vehicles, 15
counts of criminal mischief and
four counts of criminal conspir-
acy to Luzerne County Court.
State police withdrew a
charge of underage drinking
against Gensel and furnishing
alcohol to a minor against Da-
lessandro.
The two men are accused
with throwing items striking at
least 19 vehicles and tractor
trailers traveling in the south-
bound lane of Interstate 81 in
Plains Township on Aug. 8 and
Aug. 9, according to the crimi-

COURT BRIEFS
WASHINGTON After a
three-month struggle, Mitt Rom-
neyedgedintothe mop-upphase
of the race for the Republican
presidential nomination on
Wednesday, buoyed by Newt
Gingrichs decision to scale back
his campaign to the vanishing
point and Rick Santorums state-
ment that he would take the No.
2 spot on the party ticket in the
fall.
Romney campaigned by
phone for support in next weeks
Wisconsin primary while he
shuttledfromCalifornia toTexas
on a fundraising trip, praising
Gov. Scott Walker, for trying to
reinintheexcesses that haveper-
meated the public services
union. The governor faces a re-
call election in June after win-
ning passage of state legislation
vehemently opposed by orga-
nized labor.
Romney aides eagerly spread
the word that former President
George H.W. Bush would bestow
a formal endorsement today, al-
though they declined to say
whether former President Ge-
orgeW. Bushhasbeenaskedfor a
public show of support.
Seven months before Election
Day, there was ample evidence of
a preparation gap with the Dem-
ocrats.
A spokesman at the Republi-
canNational Committee saidthe
party had recently opened cam-
paign offices in three states ex-
pected to be battlegrounds this
fall and would soon do the same
in seven more.
By contrast, Obamas re-elec-
tion campaign has 18 offices in
Florida, nine in Michigan, a doz-
en in Ohio, 13 in Pennsylvania
and seven in Nevada, according
to officials. While Romney was
campaigning in last winters Io-
wacaucuses, Democrats claimed
tohavemade350,000callstovot-
ers as part of an early organiza-
tional effort.
And while Romney is still rais-
ing money for the second half of
the primary campaign, Obama
recently reported $84 million in
the bank for the general election.
Not that Romney was leaving
the primary wars behind. He and
Restore Our Future, a super PAC
that supports him, were out-
spendingSantorumandhisallies
ontelevisionbya marginof more
than 4-1, with an attack-heavy
diet of television ads.
There was no let-up in Santo-
rums criticism of Romney,
whomhe said is completely out
of sync with America and
uniquely disqualified to lead
the party against President Ba-
rack Obama.
But after absorbingdefeats ina
string of industrial states in the
past month Michigan, Ohio
and Illinois he said of Wiscon-
sin: I think well do well here.
The question is how well.
Washington, D.C., and Mary-
land also hold primaries next
week, but Santorumis not onthe
ballot in the first contest, and he
has little if any campaign pres-
ence in the second. There are 95
delegates at stake in the three
contests.
For thefirst time, Santorumon
Monday seemedtoacknowledge
publicly that his quest for the
presidential nomination may
end in failure.
Asked in an interview with
Christian Broadcasting Network
whether he would consider run-
ning as Romneys vice presiden-
tial ticketmate, he said: Of
course. Ill do whatever is neces-
sary to help our country.
Gingrich took an even more
obvious step toward the cam-
paign exit, although he struck a
defiant note one day after an-
nouncing that he would support
Romney if the front-runner can
winamajorityof delegates bythe
time the primary season ends in
June.
For somereasoneverybodyin
the establishment is chanting
that Santorumand I should quit.
Romney has to earn this. Its not
going to be given to him, he
said. At the same time, his aides
were explaining that he had
pushed out his campaign manag-
er, trimmed his staff by one-third
and would cut back on personal
campaign time in primary and
caucus states in favor of contact-
ing unpledged delegates.
The Associated Press tally
showed Romney with 568 dele-
gates and on a pace to reach the
required 1,144 in the remaining
primary and caucus states. San-
torumhas 273, andGingrich135.

Mitt Romney, greeting a crowd in San Diego, is finally in the
mop-up phase of the race for the GOP presidential nomination.
NESCOPECK Alabor union
has stepped into the fray after
borough councils firing of Po-
lice Chief Jim Disidoro earlier
this month.
Councilman Paul Nye, chair-
man of the police committee,
said Wednesday council has
been served notice of a griev-
ance Teamsters Local 764 of
Milton registered on behalf of
the 71-year-old Disidoro.
The grievance alleges dis-
crimination.
The firing followed residents
complaints about ongoing crim-
inal activity in the borough.
Nye said the police commit-
tee met in late February and it
was at that time, he said, the
panel voted to recommend to
council that Disidoro be re-
placed. Council concurred with
a 6-1 vote on March 12.
Nye said officer Mike Eyer,
who has served Nescopeck for
one year and who also works
part-time for Weatherly, is the
officer in charge. Nye said the
committee,
which also
consists of
councilmen
Dick Powlus
and Dave
Madara, has
plans to seek
candidates for
chief. He said
no applica-
tions have
been received, but there hasnt
been an effort to advertise the
position.
Nye said the Teamsters repre-
sents all five members of the po-
lice department, all of whom
are part-time. The documents
contain the signature of union
official James Little.
Commenting on the griev-
ance, Nye said council members
believe that, after reviewing the
facts, it acted with just cause.
He added that at the time of
councils vote to oust Disidoro,
the chief asked the reasons be
kept quiet.
Council tried to comply with
his request, Nye said. But since
then there has
been substan-
tial public dis-
cussion about
Disidoros dis-
missal that did
not originate
from council
members, but
from Mayor
Tim Kelchner
and other offi-
cials.
As an example, Nye referred
to comments by District Judge
John Hasay of Shickshinny, who
in defense of Disidoro was quot-
ed as saying the former chief
knows where all the addicts,
thieves and sex offenders live
and who they are.
Nye stated that if Disidoro
knew about such situations,
what has he done about them?
Nothing that we saw.

J
oanne Glushefski, 44, a resident
of Hanover Township, passed
away early Wednesday morning,
March 28, 2012, at the Wilkes-Barre
General Hospital, after a coura-
geous battle with cancer.
Born on September 5, 1967, in
Wilkes-Barre, Joanne is a daughter

Basar, of Hanover Township.

Joanne Glushefski
March 28, 2012
whelmed by long-lost friends,
charities and churches wanting
to share your good fortune.
Youve waited a lifetime to hit
the jackpot; you can wait a few
days before going on a spending
spree.
Q: SowhomshouldI tell first?
A: Contacting a lawyer and a
financial planner would be a lot
wiser than updating your Face-
book status. Make sure its
someone you can trust and, its
hoped, dealt with before. Okla-
homa City attorney Richard
Craig, whosefirmhas represent-
ed a handful of lottery winners,
says its essential to assemble a
team of financial managers, tax
experts, accountants and bank-
ers.
Q: Remind me, howmuch did
I win?
A: As it stands now, the Mega
Millions will pay out a lump
sum of $359 million before tax-
es. The annual payments over
26 years will amount tojust over
$19 million before taxes.
Q: Howmuchwill I pay intax-
es?
A: This partly depends on
where you live. Federal tax is 25
percent; then theres your state
income tax. In Ohio, for exam-
ple, thats another 6 percent.
Andyoumight needtopayacity
tax depending on the local tax
rules. So count on about a third
of your winnings going to the
government.
Q: Should I take the cash
payout or annual payments?
A: This is the big question,
and most people think taking
the lump sum is the smart
move. Thats not always the
case. First, spreading the pay-
ments out protects you frombe-
comingthe latest lottery winner
whos lost all their money. Don
McNay, author of the book Son
of a Son of a Gambler: Winners,
Losers and What to Do When
You Win the Lottery, says nine
out of 10 winners go through
their money in five years or less.
Q: But what if Imgood at ma-
naging the money?
A: Invested properly, the lump
sumoptioncanbe a goodchoice.
Theres more planning that you
can use to reduce estate taxes
and other financial incentives.
Others, though, say that with an-
nual payments, you are taxed on
the money only as it comes in, so
that will put you in a lower tax
bracket rather than taking a big
hit on getting a lump sum. And
youstill canshelter the moneyin
tax-free investments andtake ad-
vantage of tax law changes over
the years.
Q: Should I try to shield my
identity?
A: Absolutely. This will pro-
tect you from people who want
you to invest in their business
scheme or those who need cash
in an emergency. Lottery win-
ners are besieged by dozens of
people and charities looking for
help. There are people who do
that for a living. Unless you un-
derstandthat, you canbecome a
victim very quickly, says Steve
Thornton, an attorney in Bowl-
ing Green, Ky., who has repre-
sented two jackpot winners.
Q: So how can I protect my-
self?
A: Again, it somewhat de-
pends on where you live. In
Ohio, you can form a trust to
manage the money and keep
your winnings a secret. In other
states, you can form a trust but
still be discovered through pub-
lic records. And a few states re-
quire you to show up and re-
ceive your oversized check in
front of a bunch of cameras,
making it impossible to stay
anonymous. Thornton set up a
corporation in the late 1990s to
protect the identity of a client in
Kentucky who won $11 million.
Q: Is it OK to splurge a little?
A: Sure, its why you bought a
ticket, right? But remember
that if theres a new Mercedes-
Benz in the driveway, your
neighbors will probably be able
to figure out who won the jack-
pot.
Q: How much should I help
my family and others?
A: Its certainly a natural de-
sire to help relatives in need and
take care of future generation.
But use extreme caution when
giving out your money. Jack
Whittaker, a West Virginia con-
tractor who won a nearly $315
million Powerball jackpot in
2002, quickly fell victimto scan-
dals, lawsuits and personal set-
backs. His foundation spent $23
million building two churches,
and hes been involved in hun-
dreds of legal actions. If you
win, just dont give any money
away, because the more money
you give away, the more they
want you to give. And once you
start giving it away, everybody
will label you an easy touch and
be right there after you. And
that includes everybody, Whit-
taker said five years ago.
MILLIONS
Continued fromPage 1A
For the first time in U.S. lottery
history, an estimated jackpot has
reached half-a-billion dollars.
That would be a 5 followed by
eight zeros which looks like this:
$500,000,000.
If you had the time and energy
to pile all that money in a single
stack of $1 bills, it would start at
the bottommost spot of the
ocean and tower above Mount
Everest.
Even with the lump sum payout
of $359 million, paid out at the
rate of $1 every minute, you
wouldnt get the entire amount
owed for over 600 years.
Your odds of winning with a
single ticket are 1 in 175.7 million.
Youre about 200 times more
likely to be struck by lightning
this year.
For those of you keeping score
at home, the previous lottery
record was a $390 million Mega
Millions jackpot won March 6,
2007, by 2 tickets.
By comparison, tonights Power-
ball jackpot is a paltry $50
million.
F I LT H Y- R I C H FA C T S
NASHVILLE, Tenn. Blue-
grass legend and banjo pioneer
Earl Scruggs, who helped pro-
foundly change country music
with Bill Monroe in the1940s and
later with guitarist Lester Flatt,
has died. He was 88.
Scruggs son Gary said his fa-
ther died of natural causes
Wednesday morning at a Nash-
ville, Tenn., hos-
pital.
Earl Scruggs
was an innova-
tor who pio-
neeredthemod-
ern banjo
sound. His use
of three fingers
rather than the
clawhammer style elevated the
banjo from a part of the rhythm
sectionor acomedians prop
to a lead instrument.
His string-bending and lead
runs became knownworldwide as
the Scruggs picking style and
the versatility it allowed has
helped popularize the banjo in al-
most every genre of music.
The debut of Bill Monroe and
The Blue Grass Boys during a
post-WorldWar II performance on
The Grand Ole Opry is thought of
as the big bang moment for
bluegrass and later 20th-century
country music. Later, Flatt and
Scruggs teamedas a bluegrass act
after leavingMonroefromthelate
1940s until breaking up in1969 in
a dispute over whether their mu-
sic should experiment or stick to
tradition. Flatt died in1979.
They were best known for their
1949 recording Foggy Mountain
Breakdown, played in the 1967
movie Bonnie and Clyde, and
The Ballad of Jed Clampett
fromTheBeverlyHillbillies, the
popular TVseries that debuted in
1962. Jerry Scoggins did the sing-
ing.
After thebreakup, Scruggsused
three of his sons in The Earl
Scruggs Revue. The group played
on bills with rock acts like Step-
penwolf and James Taylor. Some-
times they played festivals before
40,000 people.
In a July 2010 interview,
Scruggs said in the early days, I
played guitar as much as I did the
banjo, but for everyday picking Id
gobacktothebanjo. It just fit what
I wantedtohear better thanwhat I
could do with the guitar.
At an 80th birthday party for
Scruggs in January 2004, country
great Porter Wagoner said: I al-
ways felt like Earl was to the five-
string banjo what Babe Ruth was
tobaseball. Heis thebest thereev-
er was, andthebest thereever will
be.
Scruggs, born Jan. 6, 1924, in
Flint Hill, N.C., learned to play
banjo at age 4. He appeared at age
11ona radio talent scout show. By
age15, hewas playinginbluegrass
bands.
My music came up from the
soil of North Carolina, Scruggs
saidin1996 whenhe was honored
with a heritage award from his
home state.
He and Flatt played together in
Bill Monroes Blue Grass Boys,
then left to formthe Foggy Moun-
tain Boys in1948.

HARRISBURG The state
House voted overwhelmingly
Wednesday to authorize millions
of dollars to fix bridges damaged
inlast years back-to-backstorms,
although the measure requires
Senate approval.
The House voted193-to-3 for a
bill that covers dozens of projects
in 14 counties in Eastern and
Central Pennsylvania. The work
includes repair, replacement,
clearing blockage, debris remov-
al and relocating a stream back
under a bridge.
The list of projects would be
paidfor with$50millionfromthe
states Motor License Fund, sup-
plementing federal support.
Two of the projects are in Lu-
zerne County:
The Nanticoke/West Nanti-
coke Bridge was allocated
$275,000
Debris removal and repair
worktobridges alongstateRoute
239 in the Shickshinny area was
allocated $515,000.
During brief debate, the rank-
ing Democrat on the Appropri-
ations Committee said the bill
showed the need for a more com-
prehensive approach to improv-
ing the states infrastructure.
We certainly want to be sup-
portive of folks who have had
some bad things happen to them
in the flood, said Rep. Joe Mar-
kosek of Allegheny County. Its
the funding of this were basi-
cally robbing Peter to pay Paul.
The bridges were destroyed or
damaged by Hurricane Irene and
Tropical Storm Lee, storms in
August and September that
killed 18 people and affected
thousands of homes and busi-
nesses.
The vote sent the measure to
the state Senate. A message was
left seeking comment on the bill
fromGov. TomCorbetts press of-
fice.
In November, the Senate ap-
proved a package of eight flood
relief bills that included borrow-
ing and tax abatement. Those
Senate-passed bills also would
authorize repairs or construction
of highways, bridges, rail facili-
ties, and flood control and disas-
ter mitigation projects. All eight
bills are currently pending in the
House.
House OKs fixes for storm-damaged spans

ASHLEY Police on Mon-
day filed drunken driving
charges against Carl D. Yeager,
33, of Hanover Township, after
an investigation of a crash on
North Main Street on Feb. 28.
Yeager was charged with two
counts of driving under the
influence, and one count each
of reckless endangerment,
reckless driving, careless driv-
ing and speeding. The charges
were filed with District Judge
Joseph Halesey in Hanover
Township and mailed to Yeag-
er.
Police allege Yeager, driving
a Chevrolet Blazer, was speed-
ing when he lost control of the
SUV that struck a Jeep Chero-
kee, driven by Rebecca Smith,
of Larksville. The Chevrolet
lost a front wheel and contin-
ued nearly 300 feet before
striking a Mitsubishi, driven by
Justina Schell of Hanover
Township, and a utility pole
near the intersection with
Hazleton Street.
Yeager was ejected and was
pinned under the Chevrolet,
police said.
Rescue crews removed Yeag-
er and a passenger in the Chev-
rolet, Jonathan Stempien, of
White Haven.
Yeager and Stempien were
treated at a hospital.

K
THE CITY of Wilkes Barre
is improving. A nationally
ranked college, a hospital
with state-of-the art med-
ical facilities and a uni-
versity steadily growing. A
city with natural beauty,
parks, recreation.
A prospering city depends on availability
of higher education, quality medical facil-
ities, recreation and a first class K-12 school
system; an awesome responsibility for the
board of education and superintendent.
There is too much at stake; the future of
our youths and the rebirth of a city. The
former and present boards fail to recognize
the magnitude of the problem. Fraud, nepo-
tism, and incompetence in the city school
district victimize our children.
It is inconceivable that the board and
superintendent may be oblivious to the
depth of their problems that need to be
prioritized and solved. Does anyone realize
what the priorboards behavior did to the
credibility of the board?
The most recent disregard for taxpayers
dollars:The district paid its solicitor
$325,000 in 2011with no written contract or
major litigation a solicitor under investiga-
tion for possible fraud.
This district appears to be a magnet for
corruption and incompetence. The board
continues to do piecemeal studies and pours
millions into the patchwork repairs. The
board forgives nearly a half-million dollars in
taxes on a city-owned property.
Job preservation keeps the superintend-
ent from mentioning a deplorable cred-
itability problem with the public and this
board. He shares in this creditability prob-
lem.
The motion to close Meyers without valid
data was irresponsible. There is no argu-
ment that the students deserve and need
safe and quality facilities. There is no argu-
ment that to achieve the necessary facility
upgrades or a new school a public vote will
be needed.
Its not rocket science to figure that when
the board of education lacks credibility. in a
city of citizens living on fixed incomes, a
bond issue might fail.
Electing a sitting board member and
accused felon (who later pleaded guilty)
president in 2009; enacting a policy that
colleges will have to pay for student teach-
ers; the inability to complete a hiring policy;
these are not positive board actions.
Renewing the superintendents contract
for four years without a formal evaluation or
even a written contract is certainly question-
able.
Restoration of integrity has to be number
one. Leadership starts at the top; formal
evaluation of the superintendent is needed.
He was at the helm when all this occurred.
Board credibility can be enhanced by eval-
uation of the superintendent and staff and
subsequent action. The implementation of a
hiring policy will go a long way in the eyes
of the public.
This cannot be solved exclusively in-
ternally. Seeking the publics input and
ignoring the advice must cease. Until rein-
statement of the trust occurs, no progress
can be made in this once award-winning
district.
Second to credibility are facilities, which
impact curriculum, motivate learning and
instill pride for community, students, faculty
and support staff. This in turn motivates
families and business to come to the city.
A district-wide study of every school and
building is required before any decisions are
made that involve building and/or reno-
vations. The study will produce a master
facility plan in line with the funding capa-
bilities of the district and taxpayers. It will
identify the maximum use of present facil-
ities based on present and future enroll-
ments and curriculum requirements.
At this time, closing a school is not practi-
cal based on an internal evaluation of space
and schedules. There is a lot more involved
such as social issues, discipline concerns
involved in moving students and the poten-
tial flight out of the district by students and
parents against sending their children to
another school in the district.
In the event that two or three existing
schools are to remain, renovations must be
planned. Updating only one school creates a
parity problem; you dont want to create a
situation in which where you live deter-
mines the quality of the building and curri-
culum.
Step back, do the comprehensive study
and make the decisions based on document-
ed facts.
Time will allow for gaining credibility.
Time will allow for gaining supportable
facts.
And with any luck the time may see a
turn around in the economy.
Then, perhaps, a bond issues passes, as
reasonable people presented reasonable
facts make reasonable decisions.

trator living in Wilkes-Barre.

COMMENTARY
R I C H A R D H O L O D I C K
H
ELPING victims of
human trafficking,
some who have suf-
fered rape and forced
prostitution, put their lives
back together requires provid-
ing themwith a full range of re-
productive services, including
contraception and abortion.
That guidance ought to help
move a U.S. Senate bill reauth-
orizing the Trafficking Victims
Protection Act passed by the
Judiciary Committee last fall
but stalled by political wran-
gling over reproductive rights
in the House. The $130 million
appropriation is smaller than
previous spending, but tough-
ens enforcement and increases
funding for victim assistance.
The Senate bill is far better
than the effort in the House
where misguided Republican
modifications make it untena-
ble. The House bill, for exam-
ple, shifts financingfor victims
services to the Justice Depart-
ment from the Department of
Health and Human Services.
The latter agency is beingpuni-
shed by conservative Republi-
cans for rejecting a $2.5 million
grant request from the United
States Conference of Catholic
Bishops; the conference wants
the money but refuses to refer
trafficking victims to abortion
providers and family planning
services or make other reason-
able accommodations.
Partnerships with faith-
based organizations, law en-
forcement and nonprofits are
integral in fighting human traf-
fickingandslavery. But victims
need a level of service.
During the George W. Bush
administration, Congress
passedlaws threetimes tofight
human trafficking and slavery.
Bipartisanship on an impor-
tant issue has nowgivenway to
Republican obstructionism
over reproductive services.
Republicans are missing the
big picture. Efforts to combat
human trafficking are working.
Anational trafficking hotline is
helping law enforcement res-
cue victims and connect poten-
tial victims with services.
Congress must move swiftly
on the Senate bill.

OTHER OPINION: BIPARTISANSHIP
Set aside politics
and help victims
O
K, MR. PEANUTlov-
ers, if ever there were
a time to come out of
your shell, this is it.
The Luzerne County Histor-
ical Society Museum has
mounted an exhibit honoring
one of Wilkes-Barres most fa-
mous native sons.
True, the monacled mascot
isnt quite a real person,
though he does periodically
come to life for pa-
rades and special oc-
casions. But the city
and county rightly
lay claimas his birth-
place, thanks to the
inventive and hard-
working Italian im-
migrants Amedeo Obici and
Mario Peruzzi, founders of
Planters Peanut Co. in 1906.
If you grew up here you like-
ly have memories of the deli-
cious aroma of roastedpeanuts
wafting from one of the nut
shops; you may also have me-
mories of memorabilia dedi-
cated to the dapper legume: A
bowl, a bank, a pencil maybe
a drinking cup with that dash-
ing top hat serving as brim?
First conceived in 1916, Mr.
Peanut has undergone a few
mutations, acquiring a nutmo-
bile (heres hoping he doesnt
drive like one), and most re-
cently, learning to talk (no
salty language, we trust).
The exhibit gives us all a
chance to reconnect with his
original roots.
Sorry, but this subject practi-
cally demands cracking a few
puns.
Its all at the museum, one of
our areas most underappre-
ciated gems, nestled behind
the Osterhout
Free Library at 69
S. Franklin St. in
Wilkes-Barre.
The exhibit
comes as Obicis
adopted town pre-
pares to host a
Peanut Pals convention in July,
a congregation of people who
are, well, nuts about Mr. Pea-
nut and all he represents.
The exhibit opens Saturday
and runs through October. A
preview reception takes place
Friday evening from5 to 8 p.m.
at $20 per person, $15 for His-
torical Society members.
So grab your walking cane
and stroll on over for a little
nostalgia. And consider join-
ing or donating to the Histor-
ical Society. Its worth more
than peanuts.
Oops, did it again.

Harveys Lake Deputy Emer-
gency Management Agency
Coordinator Rich Williams
saidthe simultaneous dispatch
has successfully worked in the
borough for decades, and he
believes the county has a legal
obligation to honor the bor-
oughs wishes.
Williams said he wont ad-
dress Parsniks statements
about availability notification
because theyre irrelevant.
The law clearly states the
county plan shall be designed
to meet the individual needs of
each community and agency.
As far as Imconcerned, the Lu-
zerne County 911 center is in
violation of the law, Williams
said.
Parsnik said the county has
legal authority to design and
implement a 911 dispatch sys-
tem, and he sees no reason to
make a protocol exception for
Harveys Lake.
Williams said the Harveys
Lake ambulance relies com-
pletely on volunteers and re-
ceives back-up from Kunkle
when a full crewisnt available.
Kunkle has no problemrespon-
ding simultaneously to a Har-
veys Lake call when it may not
be needed, he said.
County Manager Robert
Lawton said hes in the process
of discussing the matter with
all parties toreacharesolution.
The countys newcomputer-
ized dispatch systempinpoints
available responders in emer-
gencies, allowing dispatchers
to focus more on speaking to
callers.
Parsnik said the county has
no preference for any particu-
lar responders. The system
contacts the closest available
unit if theres no response from
the first twoselectedby munic-
ipalities, he said.

Chairwoman Mary Susan
Riccetti presented a certificate
of commendation to shared
ride program driver Richard
Matyas.
JimDarr, assistant executive
director/Shared Ride Divi-
sion, read a letter fromthe pro-
gram coordinator of Northeast
Counseling commending Ma-
tyas for going above and be-
yond standard operating pro-
cedure when he checked on a
client who did not show up for
an appointment and found her
lying on the floor.
Matyas contacted police and
program staff and the woman
was treated at a hospital and
admitted to an intensive care
unit. His actions helped pre-
vent a much more serious sit-
uation, Darr said.
In his directors report, Strel-
ish informed the board that:
Dominic Cusatis, whom
former county commissioners
appointed to the board last
year, told himhe was not inter-
ested in the position and that
he would inform county coun-
cil so council could appoint
someone else.
Ridership for February in-
creased 11 percent over rider-
ship in February 2011, which
Strelish linked to higher gaso-
line prices.

The cleared 3.34-acre parcel
may fetch only enough to cover
the additional $1 million demoli-
tion costs incurred by the county,
officials have said, raising ques-
tions about the likelihood the
county will recoup any of the $6
million owed by CityVest.
An appraisal hasnt been com-
pleted on the projected post-dem-
olitionvalue of the property at the
corner of River and Market
streets.
Prior county commissioners
set aside $1million in community
development fundingtocover the
teardown, but some are con-
cerned the tab will increase if un-
foreseen problems are encoun-
tered.
The county also would foot the
bill to market, maintain and in-
sure the property once it takes
ownership after demolition.
CityVests insurance on the prop-
erty expires in November.
The demolition plan, to be pre-
pared by Quad Three Group, will
be complex because an aging,
brick city-owned storm/sewer
systemruns beneath the roadway
near the Sterling.
The structures basement walls
must be preserved and braced be-
causetheyserveasretainingwalls
that will support River and Mar-
ket streets after the building is
gone.
The building would have to be
dismantled in sections because
implosion could damage the
structural integrity of other old
buildings nearby. The neighbor-
ing Sterling Annex, which was
purchased and mothballed by the
Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of
Business &Industry for future re-
use, also must be protected.
Lawton declined to previewhis
recommendation, saying he is
still gathering information and
projected costs of all options.
Council memberswant toreach
majority consensus on the Ster-
lings fate on April 10 to provide
direction to county offices in-
volved in the project, including
community development and the
county engineers office, which
would oversee demolition.
STERLING
$19,288 fromhis Schuylkill Coun-
ty retirement systempension. He
also listed income from divi-
dends, capital gains and interest
but listed only one investment
that he made more than$1,100 on
that calendar year. He did not list
any rental properties or outstand-
ing debts, mortgages or loans.
Cartwright reported $352,281
in salary from the Munley, Mun-
ley and Cartwright law firm in
Scranton and $506 in royalty pay-
ments for a book he co-authored
in 2011 called Litigating Busi-
ness and Commercial Tort
Cases.
In addition to earning divi-
dends and interest from numer-
ous investments, only two Van-
guardfundsnettedhimmorethan
$5,000 last year.
On his liabilities list, Cart-
wright notes outstanding bal-
ances ontwocredit cards, bothto-
taling between $15,001 and
$50,000. He also lists a line of
credit through Penn Security
Bank valued between $500,001
and $1 million that was taken out
in December and a mortgage
throughthe same Scranton-based
bank taken out in 2005 to pur-
chase an office. That loan was be-
tween $100,001 and $250,000.
The winner of the Holden/
Cartwright race would take on
likely Republicanprimary winner
Laureen Cummings, a nurse and
Tea Party advocate from Old
Forge. She is running unopposed.
Efforts to reach her for her filing
were unsuccessful.
11th district challengers
In the 11th congressional dis-
trict, twoDemocrats are vyingfor
the right to take on incumbent
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Hazle-
ton, in the fall.
Like Holden, Barletta isnt re-
quired to file his 2011 documents
until mid-May. According to his
2010 disclosure, when he still
served as mayor of Hazleton, he
listed tens of thousands of dollars
in interest and dividends. He also
listed rental income of between
$50,001and$100,000for aproper-
tyheowns at 322RockyRoadthat
is rented by Interstate Road Man-
agement Corp. In association
withthat property, he alsolisteda
mortgage valued between
$100,001 and $250,000 through
Wachovia Bank and a line of cred-
it fromFirst National BankinHar-
risburg of between $100,001 and
$250,000.
Barletta will square off against
the winner of the April 24 Demo-
cratic primary between Wilkes-
Barre attorney Bill Vinsko and
suburban Harrisburg political ac-
tivist Gene Stilp.
Vinsko, according to his 2011fi-
nancial statement, earned more
money working as the Wilkes-
Barre city attorney than he did
fromthe private practice he owns
with his brother Brian. He report-
ed $46,841 in earnings from the
city and $35,000 in earnings from
Vinsko & Associates P.C. He also
listedsalaries fromRiverfront Ab-
stract Co., $4,560, and VPharm
Inc., $11,769. He has a 50 percent
ownership stake in the abstract
companylocatedat 318SFranklin
St., Wilkes-Barre, and serves as
president of VPharm, alocal phar-
macy that serves nursing homes
and assisted-living facilities.
Healsolistedincomethrougha
rental property he owns in Brant
Beach, N.J. He collected between
$15,001 and $50,000 on the prop-
erty last year. Three separate
mortgages were takenout for that
property. One through Hudson
City Savings Bank was for be-
tween $250,001 and $500,000.
Two others, through the Wilkes-
Barre City Federal Credit Union,
were each valued between
$50,001 and $100,000.
Five business loans were also
reported; one from First National
Community Bank for between
$50,001 and $100,000 and one
through PennStar Bank in the
samedollar range. LoansfromLu-
zerne Bank and M&T Bank were
listed at values between $100,001
and $250,000, and a loan from Fi-
delity Bank was between
$500,001 and $1 million. An out-
standing student loan through
Sallie Mae, incurred in 2000, is al-
solistedtotalingbetween$15,001
and $50,000.
And finally, a credit card issued
by Bank of America has an out-
standing balance of between
$15,001 and $50,000.
Vinsko also listed an 8 percent
ownership stake in Sandlex
Corp., a Wilkes-Barre company
that sells items including porta-
ble ladders. He reported no in-
come from that company last
year.
I am a small-business owner. I
have prepared budgets. I have
hired and dealt with employees. I
have seen the effect health insur-
ance premiums and the economy
has on people and businesses. I
am committed to using my expe-
riences, bothindividuallyandas a
business owner, to be the voice of
the people in Congress, Vinsko
said.
Stilp, a Wilkes-Barre native
who now lives in Middle Paxton
Township, Dauphin County, list-
ed $19,100 in income last year, all
through contracts for supplying
inflatable balloons that he owns
or giving presentations.
He does not list any loans,
mortgages, credit carddebtsor in-
come from rental properties. He
does list dividends earned from
dozens of investments he has
made, including stocks he owns
in companies ranging from com-
munications companies such as
AT&T and Verizon to food com-
panies such as Pepsico, Kraft
Foods, General Mills and Smuck-
ers. He said he often owns just a
handful of shares in companies so
he has the right to attend board
meetings and speak his mind.
Stilpnotedthat hedrivesa1997
Buick and were not wealthy, but
we do invest in retirement. He
said that when he left his job writ-
ing legislationfor the state House
Democratic Caucus, he took his
pensionandinvestedit wisely. He
addedthat inheritances fromfam-
ily members also are a source for
his varied investments.
FINANCE
the bill would help senior citi-
zens in several key ways.
According to Grossi, the bill
will:
Eliminate co-pays for pre-
ventative and wellness services
such as mammograms, colonos-
copies and flu shots;
Entitle Medicare recipients
to a free annual wellness visit to
help develop a wellness plan;
Reduce the cost of prescrip-
tion drugs through automatic
discounts that go into effect
whena Medicare Part Dmember
enters the donut hole in cover-
age, and completely close the
gap by 2020;
Make Medicare more affor-
dable by aggressively fighting
fraud.
The bill would not, Grossi
stated emphatically, create
death panels to determine a
persons access to potentially
life-saving procedures or impose
age limits on those procedures.
But that reassurance didnt keep
audience members fromexpress-
ing skepticism.
I know what I hear, said Car-
olyn Tavella, of Plains Township.
Theyre showing us all the won-
derful things that can be done
and theyre not telling us the
rest.
In fact, several Medicare recip-
ients attending said the biggest
problem is that the government
hasnt done a good job explain-
ing what the bill will do.
Dolores Brown of Kingston
said she believes everyone
should have access to affordable
health care and that she finds the
bill is overly complicated.
I dont like the fact that it
came out with all that secrecy,
Brown said. (The bill) was
2,000 pages I think you should
know what youre signing into
law, and 2,000 pages? I dont
think they read it all.
Tom Dombroski of Shaver-
town was skeptical that seniors
would get the message about the
coverage available to them.
The only way you can get pre-
ventative services is if you go to
your doctor and say, I want to be
on a set schedule, Dombroski
said. The only thing a primary
care doctor will tell you is, wed
like you to get a yearly exam; no
echocardiogram, none of that un-
less you have an existing condi-
tion.
Later Wednesday, Grossi also
participated in an awareness
meeting hosted by the Pennsyl-
vania Health Access Network, a
non-partisan coalition promot-
ing access to health care in Penn-
sylvania, and spoke about broad-
er impacts of the bill.
Grossi said the bill will:
Help rein in insurance costs
by requiring state approval for a
company to raise premiums by
10 percent or more in a year;
Prevent insurers from deny-
ing coverage to patients with
pre-existing conditions by 2014;
Make insurance more affor-
dable for the middle class
through subsidies and by creat-
ing exchanges where companies
will compete to insure individu-
als and small businesses;
Allow young adults to re-
main on their parents health
care policy until the age of 26;
Eliminate lifetime and an-
nual care limits;
Expand Medicare availabil-
ity;
Require insurers spend 85
percent or more of their income
on patient care.
The roughly 10 attendees of
that meeting at the Kirby Health
Center in Wilkes-Barre were gen-
erally more supportive of the
bill, but shared concerns about
its impacts and the affordability
of health care in general.
Rich Perry works with a rapid
response teamfor the Pennsylva-
nia Bureauof Labor andIndustry
that prepares employees of com-
panies when mass layoffs are an-
nounced. He said health care is a
major concern for workers facing
job loss, and that many laid-off
workers cannot afford to contin-
ue purchasing health care
through the U.S. Labor Depart-
ments COBRA program.
He said he hopes the law will
make coverage more affordable
for the unemployed, but isnt
sure if it will.
Theres certain things that I
agree withandthings that I think
need to be changed, he said. I
cant say if its the right law or if
its going to be too expensive for
the country like Social Security.
Others said there is a definite
need to expand coverage locally.
Anne Marie McNulty, coordi-
nator for the Back Mountain
Free Medical Clinic, said the
clinic has seen a huge explo-
sion in the number of patients
seeking care in the past two
years, with patients tripling in
number from four or five a week
to 15 or 16.
Diane Smith, a teacher, said
she has seen a similar phenom-
enon in local schools.
I have students who for what-
ever reason ... arent getting the
health care they need or are go-
ing in and out of emergency
rooms, she said. And theyve
got to be able to do this better.
Rodrigo Gerada, director of
the Peace and Justice Center at
the Kirby Health Center, said he
hopes the bill will ensure that pa-
tient health will remain the focus
of care.
AFFECT
The divide on the court re-
flects a similar split in public
opinion about the law, which
Congress approved two years
ago when Democrats controlled
both houses. The justices deci-
sion is sure to become a signif-
icant part of this years presiden-
tial and congressional election
campaigns, in which Republi-
cans have relentlessly attacked
the law.
Both liberal and conservative
justices appeared on Wednesday
to accept the administrations ar-
gument that at least two impor-
tant insurance changes are so
closely tied to the must-have-
coverage requirement that they
couldnot survive without it: pro-
visions requiringinsurers tocov-
er people regardless of their ex-
istingmedical problems andlim-
iting how much those compa-
nies can charge in premiums
based on a persons age or
health.
Less clear was whether the
court would conclude the entire
law, withits hundreds of unrelat-
ed provisions, would have to be
cast aside.
The justices also spent part of
the day considering a challenge
by 26 states to the expansion of
the federal-state Medicaid pro-
gram for low-income Americans
an important feature which
alone was expected to extend
coverage to 15 million people
and which no lower court has re-
jected.
Solicitor General Donald Ver-
rilli Jr. took a few seconds at the
endof the Medicaidargument to
make a final plea for the court to
uphold the entire law, which he
said would secure the blessings
of liberty for millions of Amer-
icans by providing them with af-
fordable health care.
Verrilli told the court that
Congress had made a policy de-
cision to fight the high cost of
medical care through the new
law. I would urge the court to
respect that judgment, he said.
Paul Clement, the lawyer for
the states challenging the law,
retorted that it would be a
strange definition of liberty to
make people who may not want
it buyhealthcare insurance. And
he called Congress threat to cut
all Medicaid funding fromstates
that refuse to expand the pro-
gram a direct threat to our fed-
eralism.
Not since 2000, when the
court resolved the Bush v. Gore
dispute over Florida election re-
turns that sealed George W.
Bushs election as president has
a Supreme Court case drawn so
much attention.
In their questions Wednesday,
liberal justices Sonia Sotomayor,
Elena Kagan, Ruth Bader Gins-
burg andStephenBreyer took is-
sue with Clement, who was ask-
ing that the Patient Protection
and Affordable Care Act be
tossed out in its entirety.
Whats wrong with leaving
this in the hands of those who
should be fixing this? asked So-
tomayor, referring to Congress.
Chief Justice John Roberts al-
so spoke about parts of the law
that have nothing to do with
any of the things we are talking
about.
For example, Ginsburg ob-
served that the act deals with is-
sues such as black lung disease.
Why make Congress redo
those? she asked. There are
many things that have nothing
to do with affordable health
care.
But Clement said the court
would be leaving a hollow
shell if it decided to excise the
several key provisions. The rest
of the lawcannot stand, he con-
tended.
Roberts and Justice Anthony
Kennedy also asked hard ques-
tions of Deputy Solicitor Gener-
al Edwin Kneedler that indicat-
ed they are at least considering
Clements arguments. Kneedler
said that the only other provi-
sions the court should kill in the
event the mandate is stricken
are the two that bar refusing cov-
erage to sick people and limiting
the charges to oldor sick people.
Justice Antonin Scalia sug-
gested many members of Con-
gress might not have voted for
the bill without the central pro-
visions, and he said the court
should not go through each and
every page to sort out what stays
and what goes.
What happenedtotheEighth
Amendment? Scalia asked, re-
ferring to the Constitutions ban
on cruel and unusual puni-
shment. You really expect us to
go through 2,700 pages?
In the afternoon arguments,
the liberal justices made clear
they would vote to uphold the
Medicaid expansion, for which
the federal government would
pay almost all the costs.
Justices Sotomayor, Kagan,
Ginsburg and Breyer voiced
strong disagreement with the
states contention that the ex-
pansion of the joint state-federal
program would be unconstitu-
tionally coercive.
Why is a big gift fromthe fed-
eral government a matter of co-
ercion? Kagan asked.

As the final swing
he took sent a pitch
sailing beyond the
left field fence, Nick
Swisher started
whooping it up.
But he doesnt
have to knock the
ball out of the park to find fun on a
baseball field.
His infectious enthusiasm came
bursting out once again Wednesday,
when Swisher made his first day back
from a spring training injury seem
like the first day he ever put on a
baseball uniform.
He leaped mock frustration. He
laced base hits. He laughed at his
own shortcomings, telling one team-
mate his wheels were churning while
legging out a double, while lavishing
praise on others for executing even
the simplest of baseball routines.
Most importantly, Swisher seemed
to make everyone around him smile.
And he wasnt even among his
regular teammates in camp for the
New York Yankees, but competing in
a minor league intrasquad game fea-
turing Triple-A players who will be
on the roster of the Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees.
It didnt matter to Swisher.
Because whenever he runs out to a
baseball field, he always seems to
have the time of his life.
I know how lucky I am to be on
that field, said Swisher, who is enter-
ing the final season of his contract
with the New York Yankees. This
could be my last year here. I just
want to give it everything Ive got.
When youre 50 years old and
sitting in a rocking chair, Swisher
continued, youre going to have a lot
of stories. I want to make sure I can
remember them.
The Yankees should remember
what theyve got when it comes time
to go looking for a new right fielder
for next year.
Because they are not going to find
anyone more valuable to a clubhouse

WILKES-BARRE Mohegan
Sun at Pocono Downs is making
final preparations for its upcom-
ing season and the racetrack has
some new events on tap for the
2012 race season.
One of the biggest additions
to the card will be the Van Rose
Memorial, a race named in trib-
ute for the former Times Leader
sportswriter,
who died in
December.
Clarence Van
Rose II covered
events and
handicapped
races at Poco-
no Downs dur-
ing his nearly
30 years on the staff of The
Times Leader. Born and raised
in Kentucky, Rose grew up with
a love of horses and the sport of
kings.
The Van Rose Memorial Pace
will be part of the biggest day of
racing at the track. The race will
be held Saturday, May 5 Ken-
tucky Derby day. Pocono Downs
will hold two live racing cards,
with the first going off at 11 a.m.
Then, after the Derby is run, an
evening slate of races is set for
the Downs. The Van Rose Me-
morial will run during the night
session of races.
It will be very big and will
become a yearly event, said
Jennifer Starr, racing marketing
manager for Mohegan Sun at
Pocono Downs. There will be a
$50,000 purse.
Overall, the track will feature
135 days of live racing this sea-
son, starting with its opening
day on Tuesday. Live racing will
take place on Tuesdays,
Wednesdays, Fridays and Satur-
days. During July and August,
there will be Sunday events as
well, and there will be racing on
Labor Day (Monday, Sept. 3).
Pocono Downs will have
more than $1.5 million on the
line during races on Saturday,
June 30, when the Ben Franklin
for Aged Pacers, the Earl Beal
Jr. Memorial Trot, the James
Lynch Memorial and the Max
Hempt Memorial will all be
staged.
Mohegan Sun at Pocono
Downs will hold a press confer-
ence today to announce the oth-
er big events at the track.

S P O R T S
With the regular season wind-
ing down and the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton all but assured of meet-
ing the Hershey Bears in the first
round of the playoffs, Penguins
coach John Hynes ran his team
through a short, high-tempo
practice on Wednesday at Coal
Street.
After dropping two of three
over theweekend, Hynes gavehis
players Monday off and using the
rest of the week to sharpen up ar-
eas of their game that need im-
proved.
This time of year, he said, is all
about staying sharp and keeping
upbeat.
This is the best time of year.
Theres always something to look
forward to, whether its the post-
season or areas you want to im-
prove, Hynes said. Theguys are
pretty focused and were looking
to build some good habits this
week.
The Penguins will hit the road
Friday to face Connecticut and
then travel to Albany for a Satur-
day matchup. Two of Hynes top
four defensemen Brian Strait
and Simon Despres remain in
Pittsburgh, but he isnt worried
about any disruption to team
chemistry if a couple of newfaces
are needed on the blueline this
weekend.
In fact, Hynes said the situa-
tion may actually play into the
Penguins favor.
Youre getting a player thats
excited to be in there and they
have some urgency in their game
because they want to stay in and
capitalize onthe opportunity, he
said.
Cody Wild and Philip Samuels-
son remain the two likely choices
to fill in for Despres and Strait.
Carl Sneep remains out with an
injury and Hynes said he is still
considered day-to-day.
Because its been a while since
Wild and Samuelsson were in the
lineup, much of Wednesdays
practice was spent simulating
game action.
The first couple shifts of a
game for themare important. Its
when they get their feet under
themandget established, Hynes
said. We try to simulate live
game situations in practice to
help ease them in, but its always
a little bit different getting into a
game.
NOTES
Rookie goaltender Patrick
Killeen was assigned to Wheel-
ing on Wednesday afternoon, in-
dicating that Brad Thiessens re-
turn fromPittsburgh should hap-
pen soon. Killeen posted a 2-2-0
record with the Penguins with a
2.93 goals against average and a
.871 save percentage.
On Sunday he made17 saves in
the third period to lead the Pen-
guins to a 5-3 comeback win over
Springfield.
An agreement was reached
this week to sell the Wheeling
Nailers to a local ownership
group, avoiding relocating the
teamto another city. The Nailers
are the ECHL affiliate of the Pen-
guins.
The news was well-received by
Hynes.
Its great news. The affiliation
weve had has been great, he
said. The way weve beenable to
have that philosophy and player
depth in the organization has
been key over the last couple of
years.

Penguins looking to stay sharp for stretch run
With a likely playoff date
coming up against Hershey,

cal of many played by the two programs that
are tied with six district titles each. Both
teams had opportunities and both played
physical, with a bit of the contact escaping
the eyes of the officiating crew.
We get pretty amped up, pretty nervous,
Dallas keeper Amber Yang said of playing
the Crusaders.
Coughlins best scoring chance in the ex-
tra period came midway through. Marissa
Lercara struck a direct kick from the right
side, bouncing it in front of Yang. Two Cru-
saders made runs on the ball, but neither
could get to it.
The missed chance, along with a scoreless
overtime tie with Berwick on Monday and a
shutout loss to Berwick in last years D2 title
game, extended Coughlins streak without a
goal to 269 minutes.
Its our fault, Coughlin coach Joe Spag-
nuolosaid. We have toget the ball inthe net
when we have our opportunities. You dont
have to be an Einstein to figure that out.
There hasnt been much wrong about
Coughlins defense, which has allowed just
three goals in its last five games dating back
to last years postseason. Sax, like her coun-
terpart Yang, came up with some outstand-
ing stops until Dunbar connected on the
tough-angle shot.
It was a pretty good game for the second
game of the year for both teams, Dallas
coach Chris Scharff said. Neither team has
the overall college-level players with five or
six players who can dominate a game, so we
have to nip and grind you can call it.

He has given the Yankees
three very good seasons, hit-
ting .274 with 81 homers and
256 RBI while scoring 256
runs over that span and throw-
ing in some terrific defense in
right field.
I feel Ive done pretty well,
Swisher said.
Those numbers drop drasti-
cally in the playoffs, where
Swisher carries a lifetime .169
batting average with four
homers and six RBI in 38 post-

But its not always about
numbers, especially with
Swisher.
Because the confidence and
inspiration he brings to a team
with his attitude alone is im-
measurable and invaluable.
Its a big season for this
team, Swisher, 31, said. You
come into camp the first day
and expect to win a World
Series. There arent many oth-
er clubs that can say that.
Itd be hard to say theres a

Swisher said without blinking.

self now.
Swisher returned to the field

him out of action for the past

time by batting for each team

Swisher didnt waste much

graduated from Maryland in just
three years, you know right away
that he is a smart kid.
OBrien checked out Madison
over the weekendbefore makinga
second stop in State College on
Monday for the Lions first spring
practice. The 2010 ACC freshman
of the year also visited Ole Miss
and had been linked to Vanderbilt
as a potential landing spot.
But in the end, the decision
came down to Wisconsin and
Penn State, two teams with ques-
tion marks at quarterback.
Speaking on a conference call
Wednesday, OBrien said the
Badgers jumped out in front after
his triptherethis weekend. Onthe
advice of his highschool coach, he
went back to Penn State on Mon-
day so he could see a live practice
at both schools before making a fi-
nal choice.
It was a very tough decision,
OBrien said of turning down the
Lions. I think it came down to
Wisconsinandthem. It was a pret-
ty similar situation in a lot of re-
spects. Great people, great play-
ers, I felt good (at Penn State).
But there was no denying after
I took the Wisconsin visit, espe-
cially after talking with my family
about it, that Wisconsin was
home.
Originally from Minnesota,
OBrienplayedhishighschool ball
in North Carolina before commit-
ting to the Terrapins. He had a
highly successful debut for head
coach Ralph Friedgen and offen-
sivecoordinator JamesFranklinin
2010, throwing 22 touchdowns as
a rookie.
But Maryland fired Friedgen af-
ter the season and chose UConn
coachRandy Edsall as his replace-
ment over Franklin, who went to
Vanderbilt. OBrien struggled in
thenewoffensein2011andfell out
of favor withthe newcoachbefore
an arminjury ended his season.
Eventually released from his
scholarship, OBrien was free to
transfer with two years of eligibil-
ity still remaining. He can suit up
for the Badgers immediately, pro-
videdhecompleteshisundergrad-
uatedegreethis springandenrolls
in a graduate programnot offered
at Maryland.
A big plus for OBrien with the
Badgers was how smoothly they
incorporated another graduate
transfer quarterback, Russell Wil-
son, into their offense last year.
Wilson, another former ACC
quarterback, arrived in Madison
in 2011 and started right away,
helping the Badgers edge Penn
State for the Leaders Division ti-
tle, winthe BigTenchampionship
and play in the Rose Bowl.

vision race in Wisconsins favor
again this year, sharing a huddle
with tailback Montee Ball, the re-
turning Heisman finalist.
As is the case with any player
who joins our program, we have
not promisedDannyanythingoth-
er than the chance to come in dur-
ing the fall and compete for the
starting quarterback position,
Bielema said. He understands
that and is excited for that oppor-
tunity.
But withWilsongoneandveter-
an backup Jon Budmayr still bat-
tling shoulder issues, OBrien is a
strongbet tobe the Badgers start-
er in2012. That includes a Nov. 24
triptoBeaverStadiumtocloseout
the regular season.
The Lions, meanwhile, will
hold an open competition be-
tween Matt McGloin, Rob Bolden
and Paul Jones before naming a
starting quarterback.
We havent done a lot. But
when we have done some things,
its beenapparent tome that these
guys are studying, that they want
to learn, Penn State coach Bill
OBrien said. Theyre able to
communicate, and you can tell
that its going to be a fun spring
just watching these guys develop
through15 practices.

The Knicks moved 2 1/2
games ahead of Milwaukee for
the eighth and final playoff
spot in the Eastern Conference
and pulled within 2 1/2 of
Philadelphia and Boston for
first place in the Atlantic Divi-
sion. New York could get Stou-

the season, announcing
Wednesday that he could be

non-surgical treatment for a
bulging disk in his back.
Jameer Nelson scored 17

flurry of 3-pointers to help
NBA-leading Chicago blow out
Atlanta for another road victo-
ry.
Deng was 5 of 8 from be-

finished 9 of 16 to improve to
their NBA-best record away
from home to 21-6 and their
overall mark to 41-11, even
while missing star Derrick

WINNIPEG, Manitoba
Ryan Callahan and Michael
Del Zotto each had a goal and
an assist, and the New York
Rangers moved to the top of
the NHL standings with a 4-2
victory over the fading Winni-
peg Jets on Wednesday night.
Brian Boyle and Derek Ste-
pan also scored, and Marian
Gaborik added a pair of assists
for the Rangers (49-21-7), who
lead Pittsburgh by five points
in the Eastern Conference.
New York is tied with Western
Conference-leading St. Louis
with 105 points, but the Rang-
ers have the edge because of
one more non-shootout victo-
ry.
Spencer Machacek and
Bryan Little scored for the Jets
(35-34-9), who are 10th in the
East with 76 points. Winnipeg
went 0-4 against New York this
season.
Buffalo is currently eighth in
the East with 84 points, fol-
lowed by Washington, which is
two points behind.
Henrik Lundqvist made 22
saves for the Rangers, who
swept a two-game trip follow-
ing a win at Minnesota on
Tuesday. Ondrej Pavelec stop-
ped 24 shots for Winnipeg.
The Jets have five games
remaining, all against confer-
ence opponents. They will
head out for a four-game road
trip, starting at Carolina on
Friday, and close out the regu-
lar season at home on April 7
against Tampa Bay.
Winnipeg is on its first
three-game, home-losing
streak of the season.
The Jets had all three power
plays in a scoreless first period,
including a two-man advan-
tage for 1:44, and outshot the
Rangers 11-4., but failed to
score. They had another ad-
vantage 27 seconds into the
second period on a boarding
call against Boyle, but couldnt
beat Lundqvist.
That changed soon after
when Winnipeg connected for
a pair of quick goals.
Machacek fired a shot be-
tween Lundqvists pads at 3:58
and Little redirected a pass 56
seconds later for his 23rd goal
of the season that made it 2-0.
The Rangers quickly respon-
ded with a short-handed goal
and a power-play tally.
Blue Jackets 4, Red Wings 2
COLUMBUS, Ohio Allen
York stopped 29 shots and
earned his first NHL victory in
an emergency start, and the
Columbus Blue Jackets beat
the Red Wings 4-2 on Wednes-
day night after being routed in
Detroit two days earlier.
Columbus top goalie Steve
Mason was injured Wednesday
morning when he was struck
in the mask by a shot from
teammate Colton Gillies. With
Curtis Sanford already out
with a leg injury, the Blue
Jackets turned to York, who
spent time this season in
ECHL and American Hockey
League.

Rangers complete season sweep of Jets
LEXINGTON, Ky. This
Bluegrass State rivalry runs
deep, and the divide is wide.
Just 70 miles apart, Lexington
and Louisville are worlds apart
when it comes to college basket-
ball. Come Saturday when the
Cardinals and Wildcats meet at
the Final Four in New Orleans, a
berth in the national title game is
just the beginning.
Here, the game is likened to a
civil war.
Pick a side: Wildcats or Cardi-
nals. Rupps Runts or the Doctors
of Dunk. Dan Issel or Wes Un-
seld. JohnCalipari or RickPitino.
If the excitement and frenzy
and turbulence thats been
stirred up in Kentucky this week
could be harnessed, we could
solve our energy crisis, Ken-
tucky Sen. Mitch McConnell said
on the Senate floor. Basketball
fans from Kentucky have been
waiting their whole lives for this
game.
This is the grudge match to
end them all.
Its the fifth time the schools
will meet in the NCAA tourna-
ment the two sides have split
the four previous meetings
and it pits Louisville coach Pitino
against one-time friend and now
frosty foe Calipari. Not to men-
tion Kentucky freshmen phe-
noms Anthony Davis and Mi-
chael Kidd-Gilchrist, who have
been steady in taking the Wild-
cats to the top, vs. a ragtag flock
of Cardinals whove won eight
straight with a rotating cast of
mostly unknowns such as Peyton
Siva and Gorgui Dieng.
Its not about (Pitino) or I; its
about these players, said Calipa-
ri, whos in his second consecu-
tive Final Four still searching for
the national title thats eluded
him. Hopefully we both have
our teams ready to play, and I
think we will, and well go at it.
The Cardinals (30-9) lost this
years matchup vs. the Wildcats
(36-2) 69-62 on Dec. 31. Even
though there is much more on
the line Saturday, it will be diffi-
cult for the game to be much
more intense.
Theres going to be so much
pressure on the players, former
Louisville forward Earl Clark
said. Its going to go down in his-
tory. Kentucky is the No. 1 team,
and Louisville is like the Cinde-
rella of the tournament.
Kentucky blue dominates
most of the state of more than 4.3
million basketball-crazed fans,
surrounding the outnumbered
Cardinals fans who have fortified
a stronghold in the states largest
city.
The fan bases are about as dif-
ferent as they can be, and Pitino
is one of the fewwho knows what
its like on both sides of the aisle.
He coached Kentucky for eight
years, bringing the Cats back to
the pinnacle of greatness with an
NCAA title in 96. Hes been at
Louisville for the last 11years and
is heading to his second Final
Four with the Cardinals.
Its two different entities, real-
ly, its two rabid fan bases, Pitino
said.
That was oh so clear this week
when two senior citizens duked
it out at a Georgetown dialysis
clinic.
A68-year-oldKentucky fanand
71-year-oldLouisville fanwere ar-
guing Monday about who will
win Saturdays game when the
discussion quickly got out of
hand. Georgetown police Lt.
Robert Swanigan says the Ken-
tucky fan flipped off the Louis-
ville fan, prompting the Cardi-
nals fan to punch himin the face.
Though police were called, Swa-
nigan said the Kentucky fan de-
clined to file charges.
The fight likely wouldnt sur-
prise Kentucky coach Calipari,
who lovingly compares Wildcats
fans to piranhas yes, the flesh-
eating fish.
If youre going to attack Ken-
tucky, just be right, Calipari said
of a fan base that feeds off every
little bit of information about his
school and dissects every game
tape three times. Im just telling
you: piranha wahp-wahp-
wahp-wahp-wahp-wahp. Theyll
come and eat your yard, your
house. These people are nuts.

PALMBEACH, Fla. Giants
coach Tom Coughlin wasnt ex-
actly gloating. Well, maybe he
was.
Asked at the NFC coaches
breakfast about all the attention
theNewYorkJets havebeenget-
ting with their trade for TimTe-
bow and contract extension for
Mark Sanchez in other
words, their budding quarter-
back controversy Coughlin
simply smiled and said:
You know who won the Su-
per Bowl even if were not on
front page. New Yorkers know.
Coughlin also says he doesnt
believe in rotating quarter-
backs.
I dont have a lot of experi-
ence with that, Coughlin said,
smilingat the thought he has Eli
Manning, a two-time Super
Bowl winner. Once you start to
develop your guy, you like him
to have the ball in his hand.
Coughlin seemed aghast
when asked if he would take the
ball out of his starting QBs
hands for, say, 20 snaps a game.
With our guy? he said. I
dont do hypotheticals.
Not sotheoretical is the coach
getting a contract extension. Gi-
ants owner John Mara said the
team expects to work out an ex-
tension for the 65-year-old
Coughlin very soon, probably
within a month or so. It likely
will be the final contract for
Coughlin, who last year re-
ceived an extension through
2012.
Theres talk, Coughlin said,
and quite frankly, it will get
done.
He indicated it will be for sev-
eral years.
Coughlin also said he
wouldnt discount Bill Parcells,
his former boss and longtime
confidant, consideringtheinter-
imcoachs role withthe NewOr-
leans Saints.
I had one conversation (after
the Super Bowl) with Bill and it
was as if he had the league and
all the key situations in your
games and the other games on
the tip of his tongue, Coughlin
said. Heknewtheins andout of
our season. It seemed like he
knew the ins and outs of every
teams seasons.

PALM BEACH, Fla. Even
though the NFLs new rule for
postseason overtime has never
come into play, its being expand-
ed for the regular season, too.
NFL owners passed the playoff
overtime rule for the regular
schedule Wednesday. All games
that go into overtime nowcannot
endona fieldgoal onthefirst pos-
session.
The opposing team must get
one series, and if it also kicks a
field goal, the extra period con-
tinues. Of course, if it fails to
score it loses, and if it gets a
touchdown, it wins.
The rule has not been a factor
since it was instituted in 2010,
with only two playoff games go-
ing to OT. One ended on the first
play, Tim Tebows 80-yard touch-
downpass toDemaryius Thomas
for a Denver victory over Pitts-
burgh. The other hadseveral pos-
sessions for each teambefore the
Giants beat the 49ers in the NFC
title game this season.
The vote on adopting the new
overtime rule was 30-2.
Owners also have given the re-
play official permission to review
turnovers just as he reviews all
scoring plays.
Other rules changes: a team
will lose a down for illegally kick-
ing a loose ball; too many men on
the fieldbecomes a deadball foul;
and a player receiving a crack-
back block is now considered a
defenseless player and the hit
will result in a 15-yard penalty.
Not passed were proposals to
havetheboothofficial handlevid-
eo reviews rather than the refer-
ee, and outlawing the horse-col-
lar tackle made on quarterbacks
in the pocket.
Given the NFLs concern with
player safety, the failure to ex-
tendthehorse-collar ruleseemed
surprising. But competitioncom-
mittee chairman Rich McKay
said the ownership didnt think
this can impact on player safety.
The rule was developed for
the open field tackle when a de-
fender has thechancetodosome-
thing else, he said. Hes also
able to use the runners momen-
tum against him. We didnt think
that applied to the pocket, didnt
see the injury risk.
Several bylawchanges were ta-
bled until the league meetings in
May, including expanding pre-
season rosters to 90, designating
one player suffering a major inju-
ry before Week 2 of the season as
eligible to return from injured re-
serve, and moving the trading
deadline back two weeks.
McKay expects themto pass at
the next meetings in Atlanta.
There were good ideas and
suggestions, no resistance, he
said. Well work on the lan-
guage.
Commissioner Roger Goodell
reiterated the leagues strong
stance against non-contract bo-
nuses such as the Saints bounty
programthat got coachSeanPay-
ton suspended for one year and
cost NewOrleans a $500,000 fine
and two second-round draft
choice. Goodell said the league
will not allowany cash payments
between players, whether the
clubs are involved or not.
Its not permissible andwe are
going to take that out of the
game, he said.
Goodell expects to speak with
players union head DeMaurice
Smith before the end of the week
and hopes to have the NFLPAs
recommendations on puni-
shment for players involved in
the bounties by then or soon af-
ter. Theleaguewill bescheduling
additional hearings.
Playoff OT rules
expand to season
A field goal on the first drive
of overtime will no longer end
regular season games.

PALM BEACH, Fla. NFL
coaches plan to go right at the
leagues most sensitive subject
bounties whenthey get to-
gether with players next month.
Although a few shied away
from commenting at owners
meetings this week about the
NewOrleans Saints bountypro-
gram, under which players were
rewarded for big hits on specific
opponents, most coaches said
they found it important to dis-
cuss. And not only with the
media, but with their teams.
The whole league will talk
about it, Giants coach Tom
Coughlin said Wednesday. The
commissioner wants the entire
league to make sure its dis-
cussed to go forward using it
as an example, to stress there is
no place for that in our league.
Several coaches echoed
Coughlin, with the hope they
will needtobringit uponlyonce
to their players. Clubs will gath-
er for workouts in mid-April.
Its definitely necessary to
mention it, said Ron Rivera,
whose Carolina Panthers play
the Saints twice a year. The
precedent has been set by the
commissioner and they need to
understand that and it is not to
be broached again. Going for-
ward, we wont have to go over
these things again.
Saints coach Sean Payton was
suspended by Commissioner
Roger Goodell for the 2012 sea-
sonandtwicehas apologizedfor
his role in the bounty program.
His former defensive coordina-
tor, GreggWilliams, is barredin-
definitely for overseeing the sys-
tem. Williams was hired as de-
fensive coordinator in St. Louis
earlier this year.
Joe Vitt, Paytons assistant
head coach, was suspended for
six games, Saints general man-
ager Mickey Loomis got eight
games, and the team was fined
$500,000. NewOrleans also los-
es a second-round pick in each
of the next two drafts.
One of the NFLs most physi-
cal teams and most fined
is Pittsburgh. Star linebacker
James Harrison was suspended
one game in 2011 for a hit to a
defenseless player, Browns
quarterback Colt McCoy. Harri-
sonwas deemeda repeat offend-
er, and he frequently has been
fined by Goodell for illegal hits.
Pittsburgh coach Mike Tom-
linsaidhes heardof other teams
supposedly placing bounties on
the Steelers.
That talk has been around,
but for us, its not something
that weve engaged in, Tomlin
said. Weve always been some-
what amused by it, not that its
amusing, of course.
Seattle coach Pete Carroll
spent 15 years working in the
NFL before going to Southern
California for nine successful
seasons in college football. He
returned to the pros in 2010.
He misses the aura that sur-
rounded some players with a
tough-guy image, but recog-
nized that times change.
The lore of the players that
were unique, theres not a place
for that in a way, he said.
Those of us who are the old-
school guys, we miss that. We
miss the uniqueness of the
tough guys and the way that
they were able to demonstrate
that. But now, it just doesnt fit.
Discussions on
bounties persist
Coaches and players will
keep the dialogue going
when they meet next month.

MESA, Ariz. Hazleton
Area grad Russ Canzler is cur-
rently battling for a spot on the
Cleveland Indians 25-man ros-
ter.
The right-handed hitting
outfielder and infielder is in a
battle with former Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre Yankee Shelley
Duncan for the starting left
field position. Canzler is an
option to play at first base as
well. As of Wednesday, the
Indians had 41 players on their
roster, but the number is ex-
pected to shrink significantly by
the end of the week.
The 25-year-old Canzler is
batting .268 (11-for-41) this
spring with two RBI and five
runs scored. He was hitting
.435 on March 15 before going
into a 1-for-18 slump over his
last eight Cactus League games.
Duncan, primarily an out-
fielder, is hitting just .190 (8-
for-42) this spring with five
home runs and 15 RBI.
On Wednesday, the Indians
fell to the Cubs, 2-0. Canzler,
who play left and first base,
went hitless in four at-bats,
while Duncan was 0-for-1 as a
pinch-hitter and designated
hitter.
For the Cubs, Jeff Samardzija
rebounded from a subpar effort
in his previous start to give up
three hits in six sharp innings.
The right-hander gave up
seven runs on 10 hits in his last
start against Colorado on
March 23.
Samardzija also hit a triple to
lead off the fifth inning but was
stranded.
The Cubs scored two runs on
four hits in the sixth. Bryan
LaHair and Joe Mather each
drove in a run against Cleve-
land starter Josh Tomlin.
Leadoff man Jason Kipnis
had two of the Indians five hits,
including a double.
Cardinals 9, Tigers 5
JUPITER, Fla. Adam
Wainwright struggled for 4 2-3
innings in his final tuneup
against big league hitters as the
St. Louis Cardinals beat the
Detroit Tigers 9-5 on Wednes-
day.
Wainwright, coming off re-
constructive surgery on his
right elbow that sidelined him
for the entire 2011 season, had
pitched 16 innings without
allowing an earned run this
spring before the Tigers broke
through.
Twins 11, Phillies 7
FORT MYERS, Fla. Justin
Morneau extended his recent
resurgence at the plate, going 3
for 4 with a two-run homer in
Minnesotas win over Philadel-
phia.
Morneau has spent time at
designated hitter the last week,
trying to recapture his swing.
Hes also left the door open for
a permanent shift away from
first base. Its working. The
2006 AL MVP is 7 for 14 in his
last four games with a double
and three home runs after a
slow spring start.
Yankees 5, Braves 5
KISSIMMEE, Fla. Jason

TOKYO A change in conti-
nents failed to help the Oakland
Athletics on opening day.
The As lost their eighth
straight opener, 3-1 in 11 innings
to the Seattle Mariners on
Wednesday night, as Dustin Ack-
ley homered and singled in the
go-ahead run in the 11th inning,
They got bigger hits than we
did at the end, As manager Bob
Melvin said. We hit some balls
hard, but they just didnt get in.
Felix Hernandez combined
with two relievers on a six-hitter
as Major League Baseball opened
its season in Tokyo for the fourth
time. The As became the first
team to lose eight straight open-
ers since Philadelphia from1985-
92, according to STATS LLC.
Oakland was just 1 for 14 with
runners in scoring position. Last
year, the As hit .266 with runners
on second or third, 22 points
above their overall average.
After finishing 12th in runs in
theleaguewith645, Oaklandopt-
ed not to re-sign Japanese slug-
ger Hideki Matsui.
Cuban defector Yoenis Ces-
pedes, who signed a $36 million,
four-year contract with the As,
was 1 for 3 with a seventh-inning
double and two strikeouts in his
major league debut.
Cespedes double was the last
hit for Oakland until Seth Smith
singled with two outs in the 11th
off Brandon League, who struck
out Kurt Suzuki to end the game.
A capacity crowd of 44,227 at
Tokyo Dome was a sea of flash-
bulbs every time Ichiro Suzuki
came to bat. He got a standing
ovation when he took his posi-
tion in right field in the final in-
ning.
The 38-year-old Suzuki set a
big league record with10 consec-
utive 200-hit seasons before fall-
ing short last year.
Hes a hitting machine, said
Oakland manager Bob Melvin,
who managed Ichiro Suzuki with
the Mariners in 2003 and 2004.
It doesnt matter where he bats
inthe lineup. Thats what he does
hit.
Seattle and Oakland complete
their two-game series Thursday.
The rest of the big league teams
start to get going April 4, when
therenamedMiami Marlins open
their new ballpark against the
World Series champion St. Louis
Cardinals.
It was very special to open in
Japan, said Ichiro, who spent
nine seasons in Osaka with the
Orix Blue Wave. I wanted to
have fun and give the fans some-
thing at this special time and
wanted to share a special mo-
ment with them.
In the 11th, Brendan Ryan dou-
bled, Chone Figgins sacrificed
and Ackley singled to center. Jer-
ry Blevins relieved, Ackley stole
second and Ichiro singled for a
two-run lead.

Mobleywas recentlyquotedby
Baseball America that construc-
tionhadtobestartedbyApril1for
the Yankees to return to Moosic
forthe2013season. Heclarifiedin
a phone interview with The
Times Leader that April 1is a tar-
get date that the parties involved
needtocomeclosetomeeting.
April 1is not anabsolutedead-
line,hesaid. Iguessitsmoreof a
gauge date that we cant go much
past that.
Thats what Im being told.
ThatsnotadatethatI established
or theleagueestablished.
According to Mobley, the date
comesfromtheYankeesandfrom
estimates provided by Ewing-
Cole, which has been hired to
completetherenovations.
Work needs to be underway
very, verysoonafterApril1forthe
facilitytobereadytogofor Open-
ingDay 2013, Mobley said. The
conversations Ive had in recent
days are still optimistic that they
will be able to begin some work
soonafter April 1.
There are, however, matters
that still need to be finalized to
complete the $14.6millionsale of
thefranchise.
Wansacz declined to discuss
thoseissues.
Im not going to negotiate a
$40 million deal in the newspa-
pers, hesaid.
The agreement tentatively
would include a 30-year lease for
the Yankees to use the rebuilt sta-
dium.
The sale of the team has to
come first because that money is
being used to pay for part of the
project. The project was estimat-
ed to cost $28.7 million when the
plans wereapproved.
Nothing is going to start until
we have the negotiations com-
plete, Wansacz said. We are in
negotiations everysingleday.
Wansacz said the parties dis-
cussed the situation twice Tues-
day andthat county lawyers were
in touch with the Yankees and
MandalayonWednesday.
Things seemtoget doneclose
toa deadline, Mobleysaid.
The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
season, which includes home
games at six different sites, is
scheduledtobeginwithanApril 5
game at Coca-Cola Park in Allen-
town against the Lehigh Valley
IronPigs.
STADIUM
League ballparks in Rochester,
Syracuse, Buffalo and Lehigh
Valley to play home games and
will be unofficially nicknamed
the Empire State Yankees for
2012.
But since construction at PNC
Field hasnt even started yet, and
with the International League
opening 2012 play next week,
theres an underlying fear the
stadiummay not be ready in time
for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to
return for the start of next sea-
son.
And if thats the case, Newman
suggested some type of arrange-
ment must be made to find New
Yorks top farmteama regular
home park.
We made concessions for this
season while work is being done
on the (Moosic) facility, New-
man said, with the expectation
we would be playing in a beauti-
ful park next year. This is going to
be a tough season. And to do that
twice would be very, very diffi-
cult.
An even tougher feat has been
drawing fans to PNCField.
After attaining record-setting
attendance figures during their
first season in Moosic in 2007,
the SWBYankees have slipped to
near the bottomof the Interna-
tional Leagues attendance ranks
during the past two seasons
despite a run of four straight
playoff appearances that was
broken last season.
The SWBYankees attracted
two sellout crowds during a rehab
appearance by NewYork Yankees
superstar Alex Rodriguez last
summer, but on most nights had
trouble attracting 2,000 actual
fans to home games.
That poor showing also has the
Yankees concerned about their
Triple-Ateams future prospects
in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
We like Scranton, we like the
people there, Newman said.
(But) a city has to support its
Triple-Aclub because its a Tri-
ple-Aclub and they play well. Not
just because someones there on
rehab.
YANKEES
This is going to be a tough season. And to do that
twice would be very, very difficult.

New York Yankees senior vice president for baseball operations
LOS ANGELES Magic
Johnson is about to learn $2
billion only buys you so much.
Nowhell needtobringthe Los
Angeles Dodgers the same suc-
cess he brought the Lakers.
News that Johnson and his
partners agreed to purchase
the team sparked a ground-
swell of excited chatter and op-
timism Wednesday that the
man who ran Showtime
could restore luster to the
once-proud franchise.
The amount Johnsonandhis
partners are paying would be
mind-blowing if it was just for
the teamitself. But it also gives
Johnsons group the right to
reel in future riches from TV
and real estate.
A big part of the purchase
price is all those other things,
saidDavidCarter, executive di-
rector of USC Sports Business
Institute. Youve got a great
piece of property you can de-
velop and make a game-day ex-
perience around Chavez Ra-
vine. A likely billion-dollar ca-
ble (television) rights deal that
will come out of it makes it a
very unique sale.
Current owner Frank
McCourt hand-picked John-
sons group to buy the Dodgers
Tuesday, just five hours after
MLB approved three finalists
in a bankruptcy auction. The
deal is one of several steps to-
ward a sale of the team by the
end of April, subject to approv-
al by a federal bankruptcy
judge.
The interest in this fran-
chise and its historic sale price
are profound illustrations of
the great overall health of our
industry, baseball Commis-
sioner Bud Selig said. This
has been a long, difficult proc-
ess, and I once again want to
thankthe great Dodger fans for
their loyalty and patience.
Selig has the right to review
the final agreement.
Johnsons group would gain
the ability to sell the Dodgers
local broadcasting rights start-
ingwithgames in2014. It likely
would use money gained from
the rights sale or from the
teams own network with out-
side investment to pay down
the acquisition debt. The
teams debt stood at $579 mil-
lion as of January.
Johnson is seemingly a per-
fect fit. He lives locally, he
knows what it takes to win
championships, and hes pro-
ven he can succeed in real es-
tate, retail and entertainment.
Hes well-grounded and
well-respected, Carter said.
You have a strong presence in
the community, hes connected
to city hall, andhas a goodrela-
tionship with the media. All
these things are important and
will help the community get
over Frank.

JOBS bill passes House
Congress gave final approval to a
popular, but controversial, bill that
aims to make it easier for small busi-
nesses to access investment capital,
sending President Barack Obama one
of his top job-creation priorities in a
rare burst of bipartisanship.
Swift passage had been sought by
both Republicans and Democrats in-
tent on scoring a political victory on
the jobs front.
The House approved the measure
380-41 -- an overwhelming majority, but
with nearly twice as many detractors as
an earlier version, despite Senate ef-
forts to beef up protections for inves-
tors.
Asia boasts most moguls
The number of Asians with at least
$100 million in disposable assets over-
took North Americas tally for the first
time as the worlds "economic center of
gravity" continued moving east, Ci-
tigroups private bank said.
About 18,000 "centa-millionaires"
were in Southeast Asia, China and
Japan at the end of 2011, compared
with 17,000 in North America and
14,000 in Western Europe, the bank
said Wednesday.
The world economys center of grav-
ity has moved from the middle of the
Atlantic Ocean in 1980 to a point near
the Suez Canal today, the report said,
citing calculations by Danny Quah of
the London School of Economics.
Euro fund may get boost
The 17 countries that use the euro
are debating building up their new
rescue fund to its full euro 500 billion
($670 billion) capacity faster than
originally planned as part of a broader
effort to beef up the currency unions
financial firewalls.
Under current plans, the countries
capital payments into the fund would
be spread out until 2015. That would
mean that, when it comes into force in
July, authorities would only be capable
of lending out about (euro) 200 billion
in new rescue loans.

and Working to Enrich the Region, will

BUSINESS S E C T I O N B
timesleader.com
INTHIS ECONOMY,
efficiency is every-
thing. And, as the old
saying goes, time is
money.
Businesses will pay
top dollar to have
additional insights
into their own operations, and things
such as howmuch time employees
spend at various tasks or goofing off
is one of the top items theyre looking
for.
This scrutiny can generate resent-
ment among employees, who are under-
standably uncomfortable being under
the magnifying glass.
Nowtools once only found in the
workplace are bleeding into our person-
al lives, with potentially disturbing
results.
Google caused a furor recently when
it unveiled a newprivacy policy that
gave the company unprecedented ac-
cess to and rights over users personal
data.
NowGoogle is putting that data to
work, unveiling a downright creepy tool
called Account Activity that can show
howmany emails youve sent, how
many youve received, who you most
email, howyou spend your time and a
plethora of other statistics that youd
otherwise never need to know.
The first thing that struck me is that
since Google has collected all of this
data and neatly packaged it for just
about everyone that uses Google prod-
ucts, just imagine what other kinds of
personal information the people there
have at their fingertips.
Then I sat and thought about it and
thought about howhaving access to
this information could change my be-
havior.
What would you do if you noticed
that (and these statistics are completely
made up) you spend more than half of
your life at work, or that you send three
times as many emails as you receive?
It probably wont be long before
Facebook and Twitter offer similarly
detailed insights into the time you
spend on their platforms, and before
long, it will be all over the place.
Ah, you spend 70 percent of your
waking hours on Facebook. Howpro-
ductive of you.
Then it struck me. Employers might
demand access to this information as
well. What better way to determine
exactly where their employees are at
any given time.
Hung over again, Jenkins? Dont
bother to lie, its all here. You were at
the corner bar for four hours.
We live in an era that will likely see
the end of all manner of personal priva-
cy, and perhaps the most disturbing
thing is that were getting used to it. It
doesnt matter if you have nothing to
hide. The mere fact this information is
being documented could easily give
someone an unexpected dimension of
control over the most innocent persons
life.
Before long, you wont even be able
to leave the house on a sick day without
getting called on it even if you really
are sick.

Loss of privacy getting personal and were getting used to it
WASHINGTON A growing number of
chief executives at large U.S. companies say
they are more optimistic about the economy
and plan to step up hiring. The brighter view
from the boardroom comes after the best
three months of job growth in two years.
The Business Roundtable said Wednesday
that a survey of its CEO members found that
42 percent expect to hire over the next six
months. Thats up from 35 percent three
months ago.
Nearly half plan to spend more on machin-
ery and other capital equipment and more
than 80 percent expect their sales to rise.
Both those figures are much higher than
three months ago.
The chief executives overall outlookonthe
economy improved sharply from the end of
last year. The groups outlook index jumped
to 96.9 in the current January-March quarter.
Thats up from 77.9 in previous quarter and
the highest reading since last spring.
The groupis anassociationof the leaders of
the 200 biggest U.S. companies.
The fourthquarter surveys finding that on-
ly35percent of CEOs plannedtoaddjobs was
the lowest in 5 quarters. Yet the next three
months sawthebiggest jobgains intwoyears.
It suggests that most of the gains came
fromsmaller companies, rather thanthe large
corporations that make up the Roundtables
membership.
Research shows that small and particularly
newbusinesses create most of the newjobs in
the UnitedStates. Businesses withfewer than
500 employees account for about 65 percent
of jobs created in the past 20 years.
More CEOs
plan to hike

MASHANTUCKET, Conn. For
two decades, the Mashantucket Pe-
quots lived like Indian gambling roy-
alty. Luxury cars abounded on their
tiny, gated reservation of colonial
and ranch-style homes in the woods
of southeastern Connecticut.
The tribes Foxwoods casino, the
largest in the Western Hemisphere,
allowed members to live without
concern for money, generating
shared revenue stipends that once
exceeded$100,000annuallyfor each
adult.
This month, with Foxwoods
struggling with debt exceeding $2
billion, payments to members stop-
ped. The tribe has opened a food
pantry for needy families, counsel-
ors have provided guidance on how
to pursue jobs and members have
been left to ponder the end of what
once seemed a sure bet.
I was poor before. I can be poor
again, tribal member Gina Brown-
Congdon, 59, said. Im not happy,
but you have to deal with what life
gives you.
The new austerity is a result of fi-
nancial troubles at Foxwoods, which
has been in talks to refinance its
debt. After years of unparalleledsuc-
cess drawing gamblers from across
New England and New York, the ca-
sinobeganstrugglingwithincreased
competition and slackening de-
mand. Foxwoods completedamajor,
costly expansion with the 30-story
MGMGrand hotel and casino at the
height of the recession in 2008. The
resort has four hotels, more than
6,300 slot machines and 360 tables
with 15 different types of games in
six casinos.
The tribe that runs the Mohegan
Sun casino, a nearby Connecticut ri-
val of Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun
at Pocono Downs, has kept up pay-
ments despite financial strains, said
Bruce Two Dogs Boszum, chair-
man of the Mohegan Tribal Council.
Hedeclinedtosayhowlargethepay-
ments are, but he said they began
modestly to help members improve
their lives and have grown slowly
an approach he said other tribes
could learn from.

Like it or not,
colder air moved
in overnight, but
temperatures
wont get down
to freezing until
Friday morning.
For now, a gusty
north wind will
usher in enough
dry air to pro-
mote clearing
later today, but
with highs nearly
20 degrees lower
than Wednesday.
Under clear skies
and a rst quar-
ter moon
tonight, the
stage will be set
for a nice day
here Friday, but
it will remain
cold. A small
amount of rain
will move
through Friday
night possibly
lasting into
Saturday morn-
ing. Sunday
looks better, with
a warm-up last-
ing into Monday.
The average
temperature this
month is still the
warmest on
record for March.

ORLANDO, Fla. John Hickey used
to think a meal wasnt complete without
a Diet Coke. Now the 58-year-old Flor-
idian has a new choice beverage: water.
It makes a big difference when you
get that bill, he said.
Watchingtheir wallets andwaistlines,
Americans are ordering more free tap
water when they eat out. Thats cutting
into bottom lines at restaurants, which
draw hefty profits from beverages.
Beverage purchases have declined 6
percent since 2006, according to re-
search company NPD Group, and more
people are ordering water.
In the past two years, orders of water
have gone up 3.2 percent while purchas-
es of sodas, coffee and other beverages
have declined 3.6 percent.
Portions and prices of drinks
such as sodas have gone up through the
years, and consumers believe the cost
of beverages in restaurants has gotten
too expensive, said Warren Solochek, a
vice president with NPD.
Julie Maire agrees. She is drinkingwa-
ter at just about every meal these days.
The Florida administrative assistant
usedtoprefer icedtea, but oftenit didnt
seem worth the price, she said.
It used to irritate me I would pay
$2.50 or $3 for a glass of iced tea, and it
was mediocre, she said.
Restaurants have taken notice.
At Tony Romas, drink orders have
definitely declined, marketing direc-
tor Monique Yeager said. Its harder
and harder for people when they go out
to buy full meals during times like this.
Dick Larsen has seen more requests
for water at his Natures Table chain,
based in Orlando, but he thinks consum-
ers are thinkingmore about the healthof
their bodies than their bank accounts.
I think everyone knows how healthy
water is, he said.
Indeed, many consumers say they
started drinking water to cut calories
and sugar or because it hydrates them
better.
Mike Torres, 51, of Apopka, Fla., said
he made a conscious decision to drink
more water, spruced up with lemon, at
restaurants several years ago because he
wasnt getting enough of it.
I do enough sodas at home, he said.
Some restaurants are fighting the
trend by spicing up bever-
age offerings.
McDonalds added
smoothies and special-
ty coffee. Wendys add-
ed all-natural lemon-
ade.
Andthereis evena high-
tech twist: Coca-Cola Frees-
tyle, a machine that offers
more than100 beverages and
encourages customers to mix
a nearly limitless number of
concoctions.
Solochek called the Frees-
tyle anexcellent example of
trying to get more people in-
terested in drinks again. Still,
eateries will have a hard sell
with customers used to no
longer orderingthem, hesaid.
If Ivebeenabletoget away
with drinking water, and its
healthier for me, why would I
go back? he asked.
Popularity of water rising at restaurants
Local restaurant
operators hoping to
tempt diners away
from the free water
are looking beyond
typical sodas and iced
teas.
At TGIFridays in
Wilkes-Barre, adventure is
the name of the beverage
game.
We do have people
looking for something
different to try, Fridays
general manager Jennifer
Hansen said, so we try to
provide a variety.
The Arnie P. is a mix-
ture of fresh-brewed lem-
onade and iced tea, named
for famed American golfer
Arnold Palmer. Coca-Cola
has been a staple at restau-
rants for years, but Fridays
throws in some chocolate
syrup for Chocolate Coke, a
sweet alternative.
But the frozen treats are what
catch most customers eyes.
We sell a fair share of slushies,
Hansen said.
Fridays offers blue raspberry,
mango peach lemonade, strawberry
lemonade, Red Bull Passion (with
passionfruit puree) and Red Bull
Ruby (with Ruby Red syrup).
Another local eatery finding suc-
cess in its slushies is Sonic, which
churns out lemon, lemonberry,
strawberry and lime slushies, all of
which use actual fruit combined
with the slush. Cherry, grape, or-
ange, blue coconut, watermelon and
Powerade Mountain Blast slushies,
meanwhile, also are combinations of
crushed ice and flavoring.
Slushies remind me of being a
kid, 25-year-old Gary Jeffery of
West Wyoming said. I think of
summer and cooling off with a
drink like that.

It makes me recognizable. It keeps me warminthe win-
ter. Imjust lazy. All reasons a fewlocals havedecidedto
become bearded and mustachioed men, some having been on
the journey for 10-plus years now.
Jeremiah Hornbaker, 34, of Mer-
cersburg is definitely recogniza-
ble, having not only a beard that
nearly touches his chest but a
mane of curly hair that falls past
his shoulders. Hornbaker can pin-
point the exact day he decided to
start growing it.
May 26, 2000. As soon as I got
out of the Army I was like, Thats
it. There were a couple different
facial-hair styles at first, but I set-
tled on the full, long beard.
His beard has actually garnered
somuchattentionits snaggedhim
photos in National Geographic
and Life Magazine.
I workinthe art department for
television and movies, and a lot of
it deals with military things, he
said. They like to use me for pho-
tographs where Im in period
clothes because my hair is the real
deal, as opposed to using someone
with a fake beard.
Zach Kraynak
is another guy
whose facial hair
scored him recog-
nition and photos
for a calendar pro-
duced independ-
ently by a facial-
hair enthusiast in Portland, Ore.
The 25-year-old Forty Fort resi-
dent found that he was entered,
without his knowing, into several
mustache groups on Facebook,
which led to his invitation to be in
the calendar.
His curly facial adornment, held
up with hair wax, is hard to miss
right now, even though Kraynaks
hair is trimmed to the shortest its
been in some time due to a funeral
he had to attend.
I first grew it out in 2010, and
Ive had a beard thats between 4
My husband likes to let his
beard grow in. In this way, hes
like a lot of young(ish) men
you might find these days on
sports fields and in hipster
bars. The hairy look has even
had its day in Hollywood in
the run-up to the 2010 Oscars,
my Los Angeles Times col-
leagues Chris Lee and John
Horn pondered who should win
the Oscar for best beard.
A new style muse for the
entertainment industrys alpha
males has emerged, they
wrote: Grizzly Adams.
Now the psychologists are
chiming in and the news
isnt great for the hirsute ones.
In a recent experiment, Paul
Vasey of Canadas University of
Lethbridge and Barnaby Dixson
of New Zealands Victoria Uni-
versity of Wellington found that
while beards may be stylish,
and are probably a mark of
alpha males, they arent neces-
sarily a key tool for attracting
the ladies.

are a popular menu item.
Theyre light drinks with a
sweet taste that most often
follow a lemonade formula,
with added flavors. Fridays
has fresh-squeezed lemonade
and limeade, which is sim-
ple syrup, lime juice and
Sprite mixed together. Sonic
has cherry, strawberry, cran-
berry and regular limeade.
Im pretty sure I went to
Taco Bell for a Limeade
Sparkler at least four times
a week at one point,
Amanda Heintz, 23, of
Scranton said. The cherry
one though, not the lime. It
was an addiction.
BEVERAGES

and 5 inches, as well as a very
long and curled mustache, he
said. Im growing it back out to
be that way again.
Facial-hair maintenance is key
for these guys and, fortunately,
not strenuous.
I wash it every night, but I
dont use shampoo, Hornbaker
said. It dries it out. I just use
conditioner.
I use soap, shampoo and 2-
in-1 conditioner, Kraynak said,
because my hair is naturally
curly so it can get really tangled.
I have to comb it every day.
Beginning the growth of such
abundant facial hair is probably
the toughest part of the process.
You need patience and to be
committed, Hornbaker said.
Throw away all your trimmers
and scissors.
If youre self conscious about
it, do the beard and mustache
combo, Kraynak said. When I
started growing my mustache I
hit this weird scumstache
phase for eight or nine days. I
was ashamed to even look at
children. Thankfully it kept
growing, and I got past it.
Youve got to make sure to
keep it trimmed, too. Itll get in
your mouth; food can get stuck
in it. With great beards comes
great responsibility.
How do the ladies feel about
it?
My girlfriend, Nicole, loves
it. She doesnt want me toget rid
of it, Kraynak said. We kind of
have this mutual agreement that
if I ever shave it off, it pretty
much means were breaking up.
I wouldnt ask him to shave
his beard. Its part of him, and I
love himjust the way he is, Amy
Bezek, Hornbakers girlfriend of
almost two years said. The best
thing about his beard is that it
warms my nose when its cold
and he grooms his beard so well
that I cant say there is a bad
thing about it.
It was definitely much short-
er when we first started dating,
Laura Sabol, 28, of Exeter saidof
the inch-plus-long beard on her
boyfriend Nick Harding, 29, of
Kingston.
Its what makes him unique.
Ive known him with facial hair
so if he were to shave it off it
would be like Im dating some-
one else.
Harding has sported a full
beard since he was 18 years old.
I just always liked having it,
he said. Plus Im too lazy to
shave.
HAIR
They like to use me for
photographs where Im
in period clothes
because my hair is the
real deal, as opposed to
using someone with a
fake beard.
Jeremiah Hornbaker
Who started growing his
beard on May 26, 2000
Women ... do not rate
bearded faces as more attrac-
tive than clean-shaven faces,
the researchers wrote in the
journal Behavioral Ecology.
To assess how beards affect-
ed perceptions of mens age,
attractiveness, social status
and aggressiveness, Vasey and
Dixson showed people of Eu-
ropean descent in New Zeal-
and as well as Polynesians in
Samoa pictures of the same
men, with and without full
beards, as they displayed neu-
tral, smiling and angry facial
expressions.
Both men and women said
that with beards, the men
looked older and more aggres-
sive than they did with their
beards shaved. The viewers
also ascribed higher social
status to the men when they
were bearded than when they
were baby-faced. Women said
the clean-shaven faces were
more attractive than the whis-
kery ones.
Vasey and Dixson wrote
that their research suggested
that beards did not evolve in
early humans because women
found bearded men more at-
tractive (as Charles Darwin
believed). Rather, natural
selection favored bearded
faces because hairier men
were more successful at con-
veying aggression and securi-
ng loftier social status.
The scarier guys, not the
cuter ones, got the girls.
These findings suggest that
beards play a stronger role in
signaling a mans age, social
status and potential threat
than in augmenting physical
attractiveness, they wrote.
But dont worry, hubby. I
still think youre cute.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Dar-
rel and I have been
married 28 years. I
thought we had an
easy, comfortable
relationship. We have
no children; its just
the two of us with
a large family of furry animals. We
dont take vacations together because
one of us has to care for the animals.
Last year Darrel took four trips to
Las Vegas two for business and
two for sporting events. Im begin-
ning to get little signals that he may
not have been on these trips alone.
He shuts his phone off for hours at
a time and changed the password on
his computer. The last time he went,
he told me he had won two tickets
to a show, so I asked him to bring
the extra one home so I could see it.
When he returned, he didnt have it.
He said he had misplaced it.
There are other things, too, and
I dont know what to think. I dont
want to hurt his feelings if there isnt
anything going on, but I need to
know. What do I do?
What Happened in Vegas?
Dear What Happened In Vegas:
If your intuition is telling you that
something is wrong, listen to it. Tell
Darrel youre feeling insecure and
why. Start going with him to Las Ve-
gas. If your husband isnt open to it,
hire a private investigator to tell you
whats going on. Something is up.
Dear Abby: My 7-year-old son, Ken-
ny, is being bullied at school. He was
punched so hard in the stomach that
I had to get him medical care. I have
called the school board and no one
has done anything about it. What else
can I do? Kenny is small for his age
and weighs only 40 pounds.
Worried About My Boy in Tulsa
Dear Worried: Assuming that you
have already spoken to your sons
teacher and the principal of Kennys
school, as well as having contacted
the school board, your next step
would be to discuss this with a law-
yer. The fact that your son was hit
so hard he needed medical attention
should be all the proof he or she
needs to help you deal with this.
Dear Abby: I have muscular dystro-
phy and am beginning to need my
wheelchair full time. My friends and
family are doing whatever they can to
make their homes accessible so I am
not left out of activities. They mean
everything to me, and I depend on
them a great deal.
My wheelchair can be unforgiving
when going around doorways, hard-
wood flooring, etc. Its inevitable that
I will damage something in some-
ones home and I will feel terrible
about it. What should I do when this
happens? I may not even know I did
it. I cant fix every scratch I make or
clean every track I leave on the rug. I
want to be invited, but I also want to
be a good guest. What do you think?
Planning in Advance, Columbus,
Ohio
Dear Planning In Advance: Because
you are wisely planning in advance,
this is a conversation you should
have with your family and friends
now, before the need arises. Explain
your concerns and offer to pay for the
repair of any damage caused by your
wheelchair. Im sure the offer will be
appreciated.
DEAR ABBY

To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Youll
get to choose your leader, which
puts you among a small minor-
ity of humans in the history of
humanity. Youll be drawn toward
those with the ability to unite
people.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youll
cotton to whats important. This
skill alone will put you in a cate-
gory above the crowd. You dont
even have to tell anyone what
youre doing, because who you
are is apparent.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Theres
a dreamy quality to the day, but
even when you wish things were
different, you realize the power
you have. When you decide to
put your hands on the controls
of life, the drive begins.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You
are trying to do too much on
your own. Additionally, you hard-
ly know where youre going. Is it
so difficult to ask for a map or a
road sign, cosmically speaking?
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). No explana-
tion or excuse will be necessary,
so dont offer one. Youre a fun-
loving person, which boils down
to precisely this: The why
question is almost always fol-
lowed by a why not?
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Moving
along lifes path, you will stub
your toe. Its inevitable. When it
happens, just praise yourself for
moving as opposed to trying to
stand still.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The win-
dows and doors of knowledge
are wide open, inviting you to
learn all you can. Try new things.
Repeat your experiment until
you feel youve learned some-
thing of value.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Social
influences are strong, but they
cannot trump your sense of
morality, poetry and innate jus-
tice. Dont concentrate so intent-
ly on your vision.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
The past got you where you are
now. That doesnt mean you
have to be in love with what hap-
pened, but you can at least come
to terms with it.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Someone who is younger than
you will be telling stories about
you in the decades to come.
This makes for some interesting
choices on your end. What do
you want to be known for?
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Usually, you wouldnt think twice
about what the neighbors, or
anyone else, think of you. But
lately youve started to notice
how your reputation affects your
options, and youll curb your
behavior accordingly.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Theres
nothing about love that will
make sense to you, and it abso-
lutely shouldnt make sense. If
it did, you wouldnt be moved to
express yourself.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (March 29).
For the next 10 weeks, youll
focus on intellectual growth. In
June, youll put your time and
sweat into achieving states of
personal beauty and relationship
harmony. Learning and applying
your knowledge to improve your
finances will be a favorite con-
centration. A family celebration
in July will bring a lucky connec-
tion. Libra and Scorpio people
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 4, 2, 20, 14 and 8.
