PLAINS TWP.

An oil paint-
ing of the Wyoming Monument
done by former President Jim-
my Carter will be auctioned at a
fundraising dinner when Carter
visits the area in May.
Carter and his wife, Rosal-
ynn, are scheduled to visit the
Wyoming Val-
ley on May
28. The for-
mer president
will speak at
an afternoon
ceremony at
the Wyoming
Monume nt ,
and he and his
wife will be featured at a fund-
raising dinner later that night
at the Stegmaier Mansion on
South Franklin Street in Wilkes-
Barre
At the dinner, Carter will of-
fer an oil painting he recently
completed of the Wyoming
Monument. Proceeds from the
dinner and auction and a spe-
cial meet and greet after the
speech at the monument will go
to the Plains (Georgia) Better
Hometown Program.
Its extremely rare to have
a U.S. president visit our area
and even more special that he
will speak at a local historical
landmark that he has painted
VATICAN CITY Pope
Francis named eight cardinals
from around the globe Satur-
day to advise him on running
the Catholic Church and re-
forming the Vatican bureau-
cracy, marking his rst month
as pope with a major initiative
to reect the universal nature
of the church in key governing
decisions.
The advisory panel includes
only one current Vatican of-
cial. The rest are cardinals
from North, Central and South
America, Africa, Asia, Europe
and Australia. Many have
been outspoken in calling for a
shake-up of the Vatican bureau-
cracy, which was last reformed
25 years ago, while others have
tried to clean up the church
from sexually abusive priests.
In the run-up to the con-
clave that elected Francis the
rst Latin American pope one
month ago, many cardinals de-
manded the Vatican be more
responsive to their needs on
the ground and said the Holy
See bureaucracy itself must be
overhauled. Including repre-
sentatives from each continent
in a permanent advisory panel
to the pope would seem to go
a long way toward answering
those calls.
In its announcement Sat-
urday, the Vatican said Fran-
cis got the idea to form the
advisory body from the pre-
conclave meetings where such
complaints were aired. He has
formed a group of cardinals to
advise him in the governing
of the universal church and to
study a revision of the apos-
tolic constitution Pastor Bo-
nus on the Roman Curia, the
statement said.
Pope John Paul II issued
Pastor Bonus in 1988, and it
functions effectively as the
blueprint for the administra-
tion of the Holy See, known as
the Roman Curia, and the Vati-
can City State. The document
metes out the work and juris-
dictions of the congregations,
pontical councils and other
ofces that make up the gover-
nance of the Catholic Church.
Pastor Bonus itself was a
revision of the 1967 document
that marked the last major re-
form of the Vatican bureaucra-
cy, undertaken by Pope Paul
VI.
A reform of the Vatican bu-
reaucracy has been demanded
for years, given that both John
Paul and Benedict XVI essen-
tially neglected in-house ad-
ministration of the Holy See
in favor of other priorities. But
the calls for change grew deaf-
ening last year after the leaks
of papal documents exposed
petty turf battles within the
Vatican bureaucracy, allega-
tions of corruption in the run-
ning of the Vatican city state,
and even a purported plot by
senior Vatican ofcials to out a
prominent Catholic as gay.
Francis advisory group will
meet in its inaugural session
Despite being charged for
her alleged role in taking more
than $700,000 from a Swoyers-
ville re department, a woman
still serving there as an ofcer
has been involved in applying
for state grants.
Carol Gamble, 51, has in
recent years applied for two
grants totaling $16,939 for
equipment for the station,
according to applications ob-
tained from the Ofce of the
State Fire Commissioners.
Gamble and her mother,
Catherine Drago, 82, were
charged in 2008 with taking
the money that the Swoyers-
ville Volunteer Hose Co. 1 had
obtained through bingo fund-
raisers.
Borough ofcials believed
the re station was no longer
operational, basing those sus-
picions on the absence of ac-
tivity there and the loan of a
re truck to a neighboring re
department. But, three state
grant applications reveal the
station has been actively seek-
ing grants as a functioning sta-
tion, and includes a breakdown
of calls the station responded
to since 2009.
Since the rst ones were
awarded in 2008, slot machine-
revenue grants have spread
millions throughout Luzerne
County, ranging from $24,144
for a Nescopeck police cruiser
to $12 million to help fund road-
way work from Interstate 81 and
state Route 315 into the sprawl-
ing CenterPoint East Commerce
& Trade Park in Jenkins Town-
ship.
By law, 2 percent of money
wagered in Mohegan Sun at
Pocono Downs slot machines
is earmarked to be allocated to
communities submitting grants
each year. So far, the allocations
have helped pay for municipal
buildings, recycling centers, a
library and other public projects.
Thirty-three projects have
been funded and reached com-
pletion, more than two dozen
more are underway and the
rest, mostly those that were just
awarded grants this year, will be
starting shortly.
Yet, ve years after the rst
wave of the 96 grants totaling
more than $73 million were
awarded, questions remain
about criteria used to evaluate
applications. Some people say
there should be greater empha-
sis on economic development,
and many residents question
why money isnt used largely to
reduce real estate taxes.
Without question, the avail-
ability of funding for municipal
projects appeals to many public
ofcials.
Everybodys budget is very
difcult and very tight, said
Tim McGinley, chairman of the
Luzerne County Council, noting
that having access to gambling
grants is a major benet of host-

Steamtown asks volunteers to climb aboard
SCRANTON John Mucha
knew Saturdays volunteer fair
at the Steamtown National His-
toric Site was much more than
an opportunity to attract resi-
dents to volunteer at the former
railyard-turned museum. It was
an opportunity for volunteers to
help build history.
Mucha, supervisory park
ranger at the site, anticipated
that about 25 people would stop
in during the open house to get
information about volunteering.
The volunteer experience
benets both the park and the
volunteer, said Mucha, provid-
ing personal enrichment, expe-
rience and an appreciation of
railways and history.
The history of railroading
reects other historical events,
he said. For example, the In-
dustrial Revolution was driven
by the availability of railroad
transportation.
Mucha started his tenure
with the National Park Service
in 1984 as a volunteer.
He emphasized that many
types of volunteers are neces-
sary for Steamtown to run suc-
cessfully.
Some of our volunteers like
interacting with people; some
like utilizing skills to restore lo-
comotives; some like to x the
inner working of trains; some
prefer ofce work, said Mucha.
All are necessary and all are ap-
preciated.
He also highlighted the di-
versity of the parks present 150
volunteers. One man, approach-
ing age 80, actually worked on
a railroad during his career and
now works directly on short
train trips provided at the site.
Some high school students
volunteer, entering pertinent
data into computers.
Pat McKnight, park historian,
said although many visitors
come to the site to revisit the
old days, railroading historical-
ly has been on the cutting edge
of technology. Railroads relied
upon early computer technol-
ogy to direct, schedule and pro-
vide safety on railways.
Many of our volunteers have
a good understanding of tech-
nology, said McKnight, using
the computer to archive data
and do research.
Mark Horn of Blakeslee, who
was seeking more information
about volunteering, keeps his
opinion of the historical site
simple. Its just a chance to be a
boy again and to fulll a dream,
he said.
People who want more in-
formation on volunteering at
Steamtown can contact Mucha
at 340-5198 or visit the historic
sites website: www.nps.gov/
stea.

Activists say Syrian
airstrike kills 20
BEIRUT A Syrian gov-
ernment airstrike on a town in
the countrys northwest killed
at least 20 people Saturday,
shattering store fronts, setting
cars ablaze and sending a giant
plume of black and gray smoke
into the sky.
President Bashar Assads
air force has been one of his
biggest assets in the two-year-
old civil war and he has used
warplanes and helicopters to
try to check rebel advances,
although the regime also fre-
quently hits civilian areas.
A Human Rights Watch re-
port this week accused the
Syrian government of com-
mitting war crimes by using
indiscriminate and sometimes
deliberate airstrikes against
civilians, killing at least 4,300
people since the summer.
Saturdays air raid struck the
town of Saraqeb in Idlib prov-
ince, according to the Britain-
based Syrian Observatory for
Human Rights activist group.
The Observatory said three
children were among the 20
people killed in the attack.
Amateur videos posted on-
line showed a giant plume of
black smoke, and people in
cars and on motorbikes racing
to help the wounded. A group
of men could be seen carrying
a wounded man covered in
gray dust. Another man in the
video rushes with a bucket of
water to help extinguish cars
in ames. Rubble and twisted
metal litter the street.
The video appeared genu-
ine and corresponded to other
reporting by The Associated
Press of the events depicted.
Rebels have wrested much
of the countryside of Idlib
and other provinces in north-
ern Syria from regime forces,
although government troops
still control many military
bases in the region from which
they launch attacks includ-
ing airstrikes on opposition-
held areas.
South of Saraqeb, Syrian
government troops trying to
relieve a besieged military
base ambushed a rebel check-
point, killing at least 21 oppo-
sition ghters.
The Observatory said the
government forces surprised
the rebel ghters on the out-
skirts of the village of Babou-
lein.
Syrian Observatory for
Human Rights said three
children among those killed.

Police: Drunken bicyclist
threatened to kill them
SUGAR NOTCH A wrong-
way bicyclist strayed on the
wrong side of the law Friday
night for riding drunk in the
dark and threatening to kill of-
cers who arrested him, accord-
ing to police.
Steven Laird, 44, of Carey
Street, Ashley was charged with
making terroristic threats, driv-
ing under the inuence and re-
sisting arrest after police used
pepper spray on himto take him
into custody, police said. He was
arraigned and committed to the
Luzerne County Correctional
Facility for lack of $10,000 bail.
According to police, this is
what happened: Laird had no
light or reectors on the bi-
cycle he was riding eastbound
in the westbound lane of Main
Street at 8:49 p.m. He allegedly
showed signs of intoxication
and had several cans of beer in
his pockets. He cursed at an Sgt.
Joseph McGlynn when asked
for identication and ed on his
bike.
Laird abandoned the bike and
was later caught after a foot
chase, police said. McGlynn
used pepper spray on him and
after a brief struggle took him
into custody. The ofcer found
a brass pipe and several white
pill on Laird, who said he ed
because he thought there were
warrants for his arrest, police
said.
The pipe tested positive for
m a r i j u a n a
residue and
the pills were
later identi-
ed as acet-
aminophen/
Oxyc odone
hydro chlo-
ride, police
said.
While being treated by emer-
gency medical service person-
nel for exposure to the pepper
spray, Laird allegedly spit at
them. He continued to spit
when placed in a patrol car,
police said. He complained of
chest pains and was taken by
ambulance to Wilkes-Barre
General Hospital. En route he
allegedly told paramedic Jessica
Cromer that he was going to
kill her, McGlynn and another
ofcer.
At the hospital the threats al-
legedly continued, with Laird
telling the ofcers he was going
to kill them. He refused to sub-
mit to a chemical blood test and
was cleared to leave the hospi-
tal by medical personnel, police
said. Laird was taken to the
Sugar Notch Police Department
and a read his rights. While in
custody Laird allegedly told the
police ofcers he knew they had
children or families and that
they would be sorry. He also
allegedly said he hates Ashley
and its police ofcers and if it
was up to him he would have
Ashley Borough blown up and
all the cops would be dead.
Prisoners, guards clash over Guantanamo Bay raid
MIAMI Months of increased
tension at the Guantanamo Bay
prison boiled over into a clash
between guards and detainees
Saturday as the military closed a
communal section of the facility
and moved its inmates into single
cells.
The violence erupted during an
early morning raid that military of-
cials said was necessary because
prisoners had covered up security
cameras and windows as part of
a weekslong protest and hunger
strike over their indenite conne-
ment and conditions at the U.S.
base in Cuba.
Prisoners fought guards with
makeshift weapons that included
broomsticks and mop handles
when troops arrived to move them
out of a communal wing of the sec-
tion of the prison known as Camp
6, said Navy Capt. Robert Durand,
a military spokesman. Guards re-
sponded by ring four less-than-
lethal rounds, he said.
There were no serious injuries
from the rounds, which included
a modied shotgun shell that res
small rubber pellets as well as a
type of bean-bag projectile, said
Army Col. Greg Julian, a spokes-
man for Miami-based U.S. South-
ern Command, which oversees the
prison at the U.S. base in Cuba.
I know for sure that one de-
tainee was hit but the injuries were
minor, just some bruises, Julian
said.

A new program being offered
within the Wyoming Valley West
School District in conjunction
with the areas Penn State Ex-
tension is aimed at keeping kids
out of trouble while they learn
the dangers of drug and alcohol
abuse and bul-
lying.
This is a fan-
tastic avenue
for informal
e duc a t i on,
said Melissa
To m a s c i k ,
team leader of
the PROSPER
program, which
oversees the ini-
tiative at Valley
West, named
All Stars. My
goal is to get it
in every school
district in this
county.
The entire
P R O S P E R
program
P r o m o t i n g
School-commu-
nity-university
Part nershi ps
to Enhance Re-
silience is
offered at the
school district,
and includes a
variety of programs for students
in grades kindergarten through
eighth grade, Tomascik said.
The All Star program, To-
mascik said, is specically for
seventh-grade students, and is
intended to build an idealism
and belief in the future, estab-
lish positive norms and create
personal commitments to avoid
risk behaviors. The program has
been proven to prevent alcohol,
tobacco and other drug use, and
reduces bullying and ghting,
Tomascik said.
There is a parent/caregiver
component to it, so we can in-
clude parents in the education
process, she said. We want to
include parents because youth
communication is key to keep
your kids out of problem behav-
iors.
The PROSPER program was
started in 2001 at the PSU Pre-
vention Research Center in
The public has a rare op-
portunity to tell Luzerne
County ofcials how they
should spend a pot of money
that must help the homeless,
addicts, at-risk youth and resi-
dents with mental health and
intellectual disabilities.
County Acting Human Ser-
vices Director Mary Dysleski
is urging citizens to attend
two upcoming block grant
funding public hearings, say-
ing their input will help shape
programs.
The state, which provides
the funding, now gives the
county more exibility to
tailor the funds to its needs
instead of mandating a rigid
spending formula.
Public feedback plays a key
role in state approval of the
countys plan, Dysleski said.
Dysleski stressed the hear-
ings are for any concerned cit-
izens, not only residents cur-
rently participating in county
human service programs.
Were looking to focus on un-
met needs in the community,
she said.
The hearings on April 30
and May 2 will focus on the
countys 2013-14 block grant
funding. The county received
$18.5 million in the current
scal year. Dysleski said the
governor has proposed the
same award next year, though
the nal allotment wont be
known until the state budget
is adopted.
The state allowed Luzerne
and some other counties to
customize their block grant
spending plans last year, but
Luzerne County did not make
signicant program altera-
tions because the approval
came late and the county re-
ceived a 10 percent funding
cut from 2011-12, Dysleski
said.
A panel has been assembled
to review public feedback
from the upcoming hearings
and other community repre-
sentatives and develop a pro-
posal to eliminate, add and
tweak programs for 2013-14,
Dysleski said.
The bulk of the block grant
funding is designed to cover
services that help clients with
mental health and intellectual
disabilities including resi-
dents struggling with addic-
tion and homelessness live
with family or independently.
Its designed to provide the
supports they need to remain
in the community, Dysleski
said.
State ofcials started al-
lowing counties to customize
block grant allotments to re-
duce bureaucracy and address
unique needs.
The block grant funding is
part of the countys $86.9 mil-
lion human services budget,
which covers children and
youth, aging, mental health
and drug and alcohol.

All Stars, targeted at seventh-
graders, helps to prevent
substance abuse, bullying.
PITTSTON TWP. Moments after
climbing out of a four-passenger Piper
Warrior airplane at the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton International Airport Satur-
day, 5-year-old Deja Leigh Smith excit-
edly described the ight.
I sawlots of stuff, like hills. I sawthe
river and I saw Grandmas ofce, she
said.
Deja and her grandmother, Susan
Duckworth, 52, of Waverly, were among
the roughly 1,000 people who attended
the 8th annual Aviation Exploration
Day on the grounds of Saker Aviation,
adjacent to the airport.
They wanted me to steer, and I
steered really far, said Deja, clenching
her hands around a ctitious steering
wheel and making a hard right turn.
Grandma was really nervous.
The event was sponsored by Mary-
wood Universitys Aviation Club, Tech
Aviation, Saker Aviation and the air-
port. Attendees had the chance to get
up close and sit in the cockpit of some
of the many planes on display.
A portion of the proceeds from the
event will benet Angel Flight East, a
chapter of the national, nonprot Angel
Flight America that transports very ill
patients to medical treatment centers
for free. Thats one of the reasons that
pulled me into (Marywood), said John
Rempe, a junior majoring in aviation
management at the university. Brendan
LaFrance, a senior at Marywood and
president of the schools Aviation Club,
added that last years event brought in
more than $1,600 for Angel Flight.
Kristinia Luke, a 2011 Marywood
graduate, serves as the mission coor-
dinator for Angel Flight East. There
are more than 400 volunteer pilots
throughout 15 states who are on the or-
ganizations registry, Luke said. Angel
Flight Easts boundaries are fromMaine
to North Carolina and to western Ohio.
If a patient has to travel to a treatment
center past the boundaries, Luke coor-
dinates the mission with volunteer pi-
lots in other chapters.
My job is to nd the right pilot, the
right airport with the right aircraft,
Luke said. Angel Flight missions are
not for emergency situations. Most of
Councilman: Feds asking questions about LAG Towing
WILKES-BARRE Frus-
trated with the pace of a city
investigationinto complaints
about its towing contractor,
Councilman Tony George
recently said a second probe
by outside agencies could
lead to a resolution.
George, vice chair of coun-
cil, said an FBI agent and
state police ofcer paid him
a courtesy call a few months
ago and asked about LAG
Towing. Theres stuff going
on. Thats common knowl-
edge, George said Friday.
The former city police
chief has led the push to
terminate LAGs contract,
saying the companys owner,
Leo A. Glodzik III, violated
its terms.
Yet nearly four months
after George received coun-
cils support in January to
recommend that Mayor Tom
Leighton begin the termina-
tion process, LAG continues
to do business with the city.
When asked by George
during Thursdays council
meeting for a status report,
Leighton said it was being
thoroughly investigated.
B u t
G e o r g e
on Friday
questioned
why it was
taking so
long. He
keeps say-
ing hes in-
vestigating the complaints,
said George. Theres ve
other issues being violated.
Among them, he said, are
Glodziks failure to provide a
log and all of the records that
George requested regarding
tows, failure to comply with
federal, state and local laws
and Glodziks guilty plea in
2011 to resisting arrest, a
misdemeanor offense.
The city
may ter-
minate the
c o n t r a c t
if Glodzik
is found
guilty of
any crimi-
nal act oth-
er than a summary offense.
Theres enough violations
there to terminate the con-
tract, George said.
At the council meeting,
George also attempted to
use the contracts May 1 au-
tomatic renewal date to spur
action by the administration.

Raceway savors sun power
Slightly more than two and a half
years after the dedication of Pocono
Raceways solar farm, the total amount
of electricity produced by the 25-acre
facility reached the 10 million kilowatt
hour mark.
The solar installation consists of
39,960 American-made photovoltaic
modules that will produce more than
72 million kWh of energy over the next
20 years.
The environmental attributes associ-
ated with the system will offset more
than 3,104 metric tons of carbon diox-
ide annually and will generate enough
power to provide the electricity needs
for more than 300 homes beyond the
power needs of Pocono Raceway, ac-
cording to Pocono ofcials.
The 10 million kWh produced has al-
ready impacted the environment. The
total energy generated equals the use of
more than 57,000 light bulbs (60 watt)
for one year at eight hours per day
and represents a savings of more than
810,000 gallons of gasoline with a
carbon dioxide offset equaling that of
180,000 trees or 294,000 propane bar-
becue grills.
HAZLETON
Funfest to offer ashback
Funfest will remember the 1980s
this year, as it celebrates its 35th anni-
versary with the theme A Totally 80s
Weekend.
Funfest will be held Sept. 7 and 8 in
downtown Hazleton, and the theme,
selected recently by the festivals orga-
nizing committee, will be displayed via
a newlogo, created by Precision Design
of Hazleton.
The event is coordinated by the
Greater Hazleton Chamber of Com-
merce and is operated by the all-
volunteer Funfest Committee. The
committee selects a new theme at the
beginning of each year and seeks to or-
ganize several theme-related activities.
This year were starting the celebra-
tion early with our 80s Throwback
Prom, to be held later this month, and
we hope everyone will get into the spir-
it, said Judiann McGrogan, Funfest co-
ordinator. The prom a night of mu-
sic, dance, food and drink is being
organized by the Funfest Fundraising
Committee, and will be held April 27 at
Capriottis. Eighties dress is suggested
for the event, which will feature 80s
music and prizes.
Businesses interested in the Funfest
sponsorship programs are asked to con-
tact special events coordinator Julie
Ferry at 455-1509. Information on spon-
sorship, as well as on Funfest Weekend
and the 80s Throwback Prom, can be
found at www.funfestpa.org.

WASHINGTON
Conn. mom speaks on radio
The mother of a 6-year-old boy killed in
the Connecticut school shooting used
the opportunity to ll in for President
Barack Obama during the weekly radio
and Internet address to make a person-
al plea fromthe White House for action
to combat gun violence.
Thousands of other families across
the United States are also drowning in
our grief, said Francine Wheeler, chok-
ing back tears in the address broadcast
Saturday. Please help us do something
before our tragedy becomes your trag-
edy.
Ben Wheeler was among the 20 rst-
graders and six adults killed in the Dec.
14 attack at Sandy Hook Elementary
School in Newtown.
Francine Wheeler was the rst per-
son to deliver the address other than
Obama or Vice President Joe Biden
since the two took ofce in 2009.
LONDON
Thatchers critics hold party
Hundreds of opponents of former
Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher
partied in Londons Trafalgar Square
to celebrate her death, sipping Cham-
pagne and chanting Ding Dong! The
Witch is Dead.
Thatchers most strident critics had
long vowed to hold a gathering in cen-
tral London on the Saturday following
her passing, and the festivities were an
indication of the depth of the hatred
that some Britons still feel for their for-
mer leader.
The mood appeared festive and the
celebration was peaceful, although
there was a minor scufe with police
at one point. Police said they made ve
arrests, most for drunkenness.
WASHINGTON
Some wont get citizenship
A promised path to citizenship for
the 11 million immigrants in the Unit-
ed States illegally might leave out hun-
dreds of thousands of them.
Bipartisan Senate legislation would
make legalization and ultimately citi-
zenship available only to those who ar-
rived in the United States before Dec.
31, 2011, according to a Senate aide
with knowledge of the proposals. Any-
one who came after that date would be
subject to deportation.
The bill would require applicants to
document that they were in the coun-
try before the cutoff date, have a clean
criminal record and show enough em-
ployment or nancial stability that
theyre likely to stay off welfare, said
the aide, who spoke on condition of
anonymity because the proposals had
not been made public.
MOSCOW
Russia bans 18 Americans
Russia on Saturday banned 18 Amer-
icans from entering the country in re-
sponse to Washington imposing sanc-
tions on 18 Russians for alleged human
rights violations.
The list released by the Foreign Min-
istry includes John Yoo, a former U.S.
Justice Department ofcial who wrote
legal memos authorizing harsh inter-
rogation techniques; David Addington,
the chief of staff for former U.S. Vice
President Dick Cheney; and two for-
mer commanders of the Guantanamo
Bay detention center: retired Maj. Gen.
Geoffrey Miller and Adm. Jeffrey Har-
beson.
The move came a day after the
United States announced its sanctions
under the Magnitsky Law, named for
Russian lawyer Sergei Magnitsky, who
was arrested in 2008 for tax evasion af-
ter accusing Russian police ofcials of
stealing $230 million in tax rebates. He
died in prison the next year, allegedly
after being beaten and denied medical
treatment.

Iraqis exercise new freedom
An Iraqi trafc policeman casts his
vote Saturday during the early voting
for police, army and security forces
in Baghdad, Iraq. Iraqis head to the
polls this week for the rst time since
the U.S. military withdrawal, marking
a key test for Prime Minister Nouri
al-Malikis political bloc and for the
security forces under his command
that are charged with keeping voters
safe.
BEIJING Bound by
threats from North Korea,
the United States and China
agreed Saturday to rid the
bellicose nation of nuclear
weapons in a test of whether
the world powers can shelve
years of rivalry and discord,
and unite in fostering global
stability.
Beyond this latest attempt
to restrain North Korea, the
burgeoning nuclear crisis
has so frustrated the United
States and China that they
are forming a new and tenta-
tive bond with the potential to
carry over into areas that have
vexed them for decades.
But they will need to over-
come the longstanding prick-
ly relations between Beijings
communist government and
Washingtons free-market
democracy. The two are eco-
nomic competitors, and China
is far more reluctant than the
United States to intervene in
international military con-
icts.
U.S. Secretary of State John
Kerry on Saturday described
a synergy between the two
countries to achieve world-
wide security and economic
stability.
We have a stake in Chinas
success. And frankly, China
has a stake in the success of
the United States, Kerry told
reporters in the Chinese capi-
tal. And that became clear in
all of our conversations here
today. A constructive partner-
ship that is based on mutual
interest benets everybody in
the world.
Kerry met with the new
Chinese leaders to discuss a
range of issues, most notably
the persistent and increasing-
ly pitched threats that North
Korea has issued against the
United States, South Korea
and Japan over the past sev-
eral months.
North Korea appears to
be readying a missile test, in
what the United States says
would be its third since De-
cember, and there are varying
opinions in Washington as to
whether the North is able to
develop and launch nuclear-
tipped missiles.
One U.S. intelligence as-
sessment suggested North
Korea had the capacity to put
a nuclear warhead on a mis-
sile, even if any such weapon
would have low reliability.
Kerry and the Chinese for-
eign policy chief, State Coun-
cilor Yang Jiechi, said the two
nations would work together
to create a nuclear-free Kore-
an peninsula, effectively forc-
ing North Korea to give up its
arsenal.
The reclusive North Korean
government and its young
leader, KimJong Un, are more
likely to listen to China, its
main economic and diplomat-
ic partner and lifeline to the
outside world, than anyone
else.

Jet crashes into ocean, yet all 108survive
BALI, Indonesia All 108 passen-
gers and crew survived after a new
Lion Air jet crashed into the ocean and
snapped into two while attempting to
land Saturday on the Indonesian resort
island of Bali, injuring up to 45 people.
The injured were taken to several
hospitals for treatment, but there ap-
peared to be no serious injuries, said
airport spokesman Alfasyah, who like
many Indonesians uses only one name.
There were three foreigners on board
two Singaporeans and a French na-
tional all of whom suffered slight
injuries.
TV footage showed police and rescu-
ers using rubber boats to evacuate the
101 passengers and seven crew mem-
bers. The Boeing 737 could be seen sit-
ting in the shallow water with a large
crack in its fuselage.
Ofcials initially said the plane over-
shot the runway before hitting the
water, but a spokesman for Lion Air, a
low-cost carrier, said at a news confer-
ence that the plane crashed about 164
feet ahead of the runway. The weather
was cloudy with rain at the time of the
incident.
It apparently failed to reach the
runway and fell into the sea, said the
spokesman, Edward Sirait.
He said the Boeing 737-800 Next
Generation plane was received by the
airline last month and was declared air-
worthy. The plane originated in Band-
ung, the capital of West Java province,
and had landed in two other cities on
Saturday prior to the crash.
We are not in a capacity to announce
the cause of the crash, Sirait said, add-
ing that the National Safety Transpor-
tation Committee was investigating.
Those on board recalled being ter-
ried as the plane slammed into the
water.
Lion Air is currently banned from
ying to Europe due to broader safety
lapses in the Indonesian airline indus-
try.
Ofcials are investigating what
caused a Lion Air ight to miss a
Bali runway Saturday, injuring 45.

NASAs Wallops Islandprepares for spotlight withrocket launch
WALLOPS ISLAND, Va.
On one of Virginias small
barrier islands, a NASA facil-
ity that operates in relative
obscurity outside scientic
circles is preparing to be
thrust into the spotlight.
On Wednesday, Orbital
Sciences Corp. plans to con-
duct the rst test launch
of its Antares rocket under
a NASA program in which
private companies deliver
supplies to the International
Space Station. If all goes as
planned, the unmanned rock-
ets practice payload will be
vaulted into orbit from Wal-
lops Island before burning up
in the atmosphere on its re-
turn to Earth several months
later.
The goal of the launch isnt
to connect with the space
station, but to make sure the
rocket works and that a simu-
lated version of a cargo ship
that will dock with space sta-
tion on future launches sepa-
rates into orbit. Orbital of-
cials say that should occur
about 10 minutes after liftoff.
In that brief time, Wallops
Island will transition from a
little-known launch pad for
small research rockets to
a major player in the U.S.
space program.
The Wallops Flight Facil-
ity on Virginias rural Eastern
Shore is small in comparison
to major NASA centers such
as those in Florida, Califor-
nia and Texas. The site is
near Maryland and just south
of Chincoteague Island,
which attracts thousands of
tourists each summer for an
annual wild pony swim made
famous by the 1947 novel
Misty of Chincoteague.
The Eastern Shore is domi-
nated by forests and farm-
land, and Wallops Islands
isolated nature, with marsh-
land to its west and the At-
lantic Ocean to its east, has
also made it home to a Navy
surface warfare combat cen-
ter.
Those who work at Wal-
lops Island joke that even
people living on the Eastern
Shore are surprised to learn
about rocket launches there.
In fact, more than 16,000
rockets have been launched
from Wallops Island since
1945, but none has drawn the
attention of Antares. Most of
the launches are suborbital
and focus on educational and
research programs.

Prime Minister Fayyads
departure comes during
U.S. effort at peace talks.
By MOHAMMED DARAGHMEH
Associated Press
RAMALLAH, West Bank
Palestinian Prime Minister
Salaam Fayyad resigned on
Saturday, leaving the Palestin-
ians without one of their most
moderate and well-respected
voices just as the United States
is launching a new push for Mid-
east peace.
A statement from the ofcial
Palestinian news agency Wafa
said President Mahmoud Abbas
met with Fayyad late in the day
and accepted his resignation,
thanking him for his service.
According to the statement, Ab-
bas asked Fayyad to continue
to serve in his post until Abbas
forms a new government.
Abbas was expected to name
a new prime minister within
days, according to Palestinian
ofcials, who spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity in line with
regulations.
Abbas and Fayyad had been
locked in an increasingly bit-
ter dispute over the extent of
the prime ministers authority.
Fayyad offered his resignation
on Thursday, but Abbas did not
respond to Fayyads offer until
Saturday.
His departure could spell
trouble for Abbas. Fayyad, a
Western-trained economist, is
well respected in international
circles, and he is expected to
play a key role in U.S. efforts to
revive peace talks.
As part of that effort, U.S.
Secretary of State John Kerry
has said he plans to announce
a series of measures to boost
the West Bank economy in the
coming days. Fayyad, a former
ofcial at the International

HAZLETON A pit bull was
captured and placed in animal
shelter quarantine Saturday
morning after the dog injured
three people, city police say.
The dog owner, city resident
Charlene Tiburcio, 30, will be
cited for violating a city animal
ordinance prohibiting loose
dogs, police said.
Police responded to the area
of 11th and Locust streets
around 9 a.m. and found the
pit bull running loose. A man
climbed onto the roof of his van
to get away from the dog. Police
used Tasers on the pit bull three
times after it aggressively came
after them while they tried to
restrain it. The dog then ran to
Tiburcios house.
A 10-year-old boy was treated
at Hazleton General Hospital for
a bite on his arm, and his mother
sustained cuts on her arms from
attempting to get the animal
away from her son, police said.
Another woman who assisted
them had cuts on her hand.

Robert J. Manganiello
April 10, 2013
R
obert J. Manganiello, 75, of
Plains Township and formerly
of Exeter, passed away Wednes-
day, April 10, 2013, in the Hospi-
tal of the University of Pennsylva-
nia, Philadelphia, surrounded by
his family.
Born in Exeter on May 4, 1937,
he was the son of the late John
and Grace Leonard Manganiello.
He was a graduate of Exeter High
School and served in the U.S.
Navy.
Bob started his newspaper ca-
reer as a printer apprentice at the
Sunday Dispatch. He was a jour-
neyman printer for The Times
Leader for 14 years. When the
unions struck against The Times
Leader, Bob was part of the group
that founded The Citizens Voice
as a strike newspaper. Bob then
used his hobby of photography
to become chief photographer for
The Citizens Voice. He held that
position for six years. In 1984,
Bob became marketing director
of The Citizens Voice. Within
weeks, both the publisher and
his assistant left the newspaper.
Bob was thrust into the posi-
tion of general manager, with no
publisher to guide him. Because
of the structure of The Citizens
Voice at that time, every employ-
ee of the newspaper received the
same salary regardless of title or
responsibility. Thus, Bob now had
all of the responsibilities of a pub-
lisher without any of the nan-
cial benet. As general manager,
Bob guided The Citizens Voice
through some of its most tumul-
tuous times. In 1989, he was in-
strumental in incorporating the
newspaper, changing from union
ownership to a newspaper owned
by its employees.
Despite the odds against his
success, Bob was able to cobble
together a majority of the employ-
ees and board members to sup-
port his initiatives to build The
Citizens Voice.
He also reached out to build
relationships with the business
community. Through Bobs ef-
forts and those of his manage-
ment team, The Citizens Voice
made history by becoming the
longest surviving strike newspa-
per in the United States. In 2000,
Bob had the foresight to ensure
the survival of the newspaper
by facilitating its sale to Times-
Shamrock.
This move not only provided
many of the aging and retired
former strikers with needed com-
pensation for their shares, but
also put The Citizens Voice on a
solid foundation that has helped
the newspaper grow stronger.
Bob was very civic- and com-
munity-minded and served on
many local boards including Val-
ley Santa, a volunteer program
that provides toys for needy area
children at Christmas; the Citi-
zens Voices sponsorship of Youth
Salute, a program that recognizes
area high school students who
excel in scholarship, extra-cur-
ricular activities and community
service; the fundraising commit-
tee for the 1989 Friends of Scout-
ing program of the Boy Scouts of
America, Penns Woods Council;

WASHINGTON If a purse
with $900 is stolen, the victim
probably would call the police.
If a computer hacker steals $900
from that same persons bank
account, what then? Call the po-
lice? Could they even help?
As it is now, local police dont
have widespread know-how to
investigate cybercrimes. They
rely heavily on the expertise of
the federal government, which
focuses on large, often interna-
tional cybercrimes.
Whats missing is the rst
response role, typically the
preserve of local police depart-
ments that respond to calls for
help from individuals and com-
munities.
Obama administration of-
cials have said that cyberter-
rorism is the leading worldwide
threat to national security. So
far, the discussion about such
threats and security has focused
on breaking classied foreign
government codes, monitoring
overseas communications and
protecting the U.S. from devas-
tating attacks that could jeop-
ardize massive amounts of data
and valuable corporate trade
secrets.
Its been about businesses
protecting their networks and
individuals using the Internet
safely, for instance, by choosing
smart passwords.
But when one person hacks
into someone elses computer
to access a bank account, credit
cards or even email, the crime
ghting path is uncertain.
I am not sure who owns cy-
bercrime at the local level. And
that is a problem, said Chuck
Wexler, executive director of
the Police Executive Research
Forum.
Local police departments are
looking to boost their expertise
so they can respond to cyber-
crimes and cyberthreats that are
expected to only get worse.
The hypothetical victim who
had $900 stolen from the bank
account should call the police,
and the police should docu-
ment the theft in a report,
said Darrel Stephens, ex-
ecutive director of the Ma-
jor City Chiefs Association,
which represents police
chiefs in major U.S. metro-
politan areas.
What they can do after
that gets very complicated,
Stephens said.
For instance, police depart-
ments work within jurisdic-
tions, but cybercrime knows no
boundaries.
The victim may live in one
place, their bank is in another
jurisdiction and the person that
committed the theft could be
anywhere in the world, Ste-
phens said.
Then theres the matter of de-
termining who the victim is.
Most banks and credit card
companies typically replace the
accountholders stolen funds,
he said, which makes the banks
and credit companies the vic-
tims of the theft.
Most local police do not have
the capacity to investigate these
cases even if they have jurisdic-
tion, Stephens said.
Further complicating the is-
sue is that the response to a cy-
beroffense is not the same as the
response to a physical offense
such as a burglary.

Richard Murphy Gibson
April 12, 2013
Richard Mur-
phy Gibson
passed to be
with Jesus
early April
12, 2013 at
his home, sur-
rounded by his
family after his
battle with cancer.
Richard was born on Jan. 3,
1929 in Mobile, Ala., to Prentiss
Eugene and Laura Belle (Mc-
Donald) Gibson. In 1935, Rich-
ard started attending Riverside
school in the Greenville District,
Mississippi. In 1947, Rich gradu-
ated from school and from that
time to 1950, he worked odd jobs
such as chopping cotton, tractor
driving and working on an old
stern-wheel steamboat. Along
with this, he worked for a brief
time with Chicago Mill and Lum-
ber Co., lastly working in a large
bakery in Greenville, Miss. Rich
than started his career with the
Air Force in 1950.
While in the Air Force, Rich
served in countries such as Eng-
land, Switzerland, Germany and
Italy. It was in England that he
met his true love, Margaret Amy
May Smith. Richard started his
own family in 1952 when he mar-
ried Miss Margaret Amy May
Smith in a 13th-century church
in Holme-next-the-Sea, England.
Rich had government red tape to
deal with for the marriage to hap-
pen. One of the other questions
asked his nancial status, how
much he was paid: At that time in
1954 he was being paid $166 per
month.
The children started arriving,
with Richard Eugene being born
in England on Jan. 3, 1955, also
Rich Sr.s birthday. Following
were Patrick Michael in Louisi-
ana, Nov. 21, 1956; David John,
April 1, 1958; and Suzanne Lor-
rene, Jan. 23, 1960 in Colorado,
who now resides in Wilkes-Barre.
The last to come aboard to the
family was Lisa Marie, who was
born in a Dutch hospital in Veg-
hel, Netherlands.
Richard and Margaret, along
with their ve children, have sev-
en grandchildren, Justin, James,
Brian, Jillian, Andrea, Ashley,
Jon, and one beautiful great-
granddaughter, Alexandria Nich-
ole Gibson, and great-grandson,
Ethan Gibson.
In 1974, Richard was stationed
at Vandenberg Air Force Base,
ending his career from the Air
Force as a chief master sergeant
in the 10TH ADS. Rich started
working in the civil service eld,
starting as a library clerk, work
order clerk, Civil Engineering
Electrical Shop, Electronic Sys-
tems Maintenance in the Audiovi-
sual Squadron, shop foreman and
retired as chief of maintenance,
Audiovisual Squadron on Jan. 3,
1993 from Vandenberg AFB.
Funeral services will
be 10 a.m. Tuesday at St
Marys Episcopal Church

Michael Cunningham presiding.
In lieu of owers, donations
can be made to St. Marys Epis-
copal Church, 2800 Harris Grade

HARRISBURG Scandals
erupt so often in Harrisburg
that sometimes its hard to keep
up with them all.
We get a new scandal every
60 days it seems, said Sen.
John Eichelberger, R-Blair.
The latest corruption charges
involving the Pennsylvania
Turnpike Commission have
much to do with pay to play, the
backscratching that can go on
between business people who
want lucrative government con-
tracts and elected ofcials who
are in a position to steer lucra-
tive contracts to them.
But despite the arrests of one
former state senator and three
former turnpike commission of-
cials, theres hardly a clamor in
the Legislature to ban or limit
campaign contributions from
business people seeking state
contracts.
An explicit this-for-that ex-
change is already illegal. But
in Pennsylvania, people at en-
gineering rms, law rms and
many other businesses that win
state contracts still give freely
to the politicians who might be
able to exert inuence the deals.
Craig Holman, who has
helped several other states write
pay-to-play laws and lobbies for
the citizen advocacy group Pub-
lic Citizen in Washington, D.C.,
said he nds that it is often
business as usual for prominent
campaign contributors to get
government contracts in states
without such restrictions.
Government contracts are a
leading source of corruption in
state and local governments,
and Pennsylvania would benet
from a strong pay-to-play law,
Holman said.
A good pay-to-play law not
only protects taxpayers, but it
tells these ofce holders that
there is bright line that you can-
not cross, Holman said. You
want to award contracts based
on merits and not on campaign
contributions.
Fifteen states have pay-to-play
laws on the books. Scandals can
motivate the passage of such
restrictions, as has happened in
the three states with the stron-
gest laws New Jersey, Con-
necticut and Illinois, Holman
said.
Pay-to-play laws can impose
criminal or civil penalties, such
as barring the offender and his
or her business from getting any
state contracts for a certain pe-
riod of time. Some limit the dol-
lar amount of contributions al-
lowable, while others apply only
to contracts of at least a certain
value. An effective law also re-
quires business people or rms
to disclose campaign contribu-
tions when they begin seeking a
contract, Holman said.
Pennsylvania has already en-
acted campaign contribution
restrictions on the people who
own and run casinos and the
advisers, administrators and in-
vestments managers who seek
work with municipal pension
systems. Federal rules limit
campaign contributions by in-
vestment managers of public
money and brokers and dealers
of municipal securities, while
Philadelphia, the states most
populous city, has a strong pay-
to-play rule, Holman said.
Each governors administra-
tion hires a vast number of busi-
nesses to do everything from
providing toilet paper to legal
advice on billion-dollar bond is-
sues. In addition, the governor
and top lawmakers have central
roles in appointing people to
lead agencies that award hun-
dreds of millions of dollars in
contracts, loans or grants.
Those appointees can be po-
litically active.
Only six days before state of-
cials led charges in the turn-
pike case, Senate Majority Lead-
er Dominic Pileggi, R-Delaware,
headlined a Pittsburgh fundrais-
er whose guests were invited
by Bill Lieberman, the turnpike
commission chairman, and John
Verbanac, a board member of
the Commonwealth Financing
Authority.
Pileggi said he does not see
why business people would
see a connection between their
attendance at the fundraiser
the invitation suggested a
$1,000 per person contribution
and their ability to secure
grants, loans or contracts from
the two agencies. Lieberman
and Verbanac were politically
active and supporters of his
even before they were appoint-
ed, Pileggi said.
When it comes to pay-to-
play restrictions, Pileggi said,
it is easier to approach it in
segments. In recent weeks, he
has discussed the possibility of
writing campaign contribution
restrictions into forthcoming
transportation funding legisla-
tion that would target people in
that industry, Pileggi said.
Eichelberger said he has ap-
proached several fellowsenators
about exploring broader pay-
to-play legislation. He is also
writing legislation that would
require greater disclosure of the
campaign contributions made
by contractors, and that may be
the approach lawmakers prefer.
House Speaker Sam Smith, R-
Jefferson, said he worried about
the unintended consequences
of a pay-to-play law and would
rather start with disclosure. For
instance, it might not be right to
ban campaign contributions by
a small-business owner who has
a paper-supply contract, he said.
How you go about it to put
some controls on it and dene it
is easier said than done, Smith
said.
On Monday, the Republican-
controlled House voted down
two pay-to-play proposals of-
fered by Democrats as oor
amendments to a separate bill.
Former GOP Rep. Steve
Nickol, who as chairman of the
House Finance Committee in
2008 unsuccessfully sought to
bar the state Treasury Depart-
ment from hiring investment
managers who had contributed
to the treasurers campaign,
said he worries about campaign
contributions nding other av-
enues.
For instance, many people in
the Capitol have long assumed
that lobbying or law rms gave
campaign contributions on
behalf of business clients that
would not want to be seen giv-
ing such money, Nickol said.
Money tends to nd its way
around such barriers, he said.
In any case, Nickols legisla-
tion went nowhere. In 2010, the
U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission effectively banned
such campaign contributions.
Latest Pa. scandal has some eyeing pay-to-play law
No clamor, however, to ban
campaign contributions from
businesses seeking contracts.

Brown, Maureen Lavelle and
Mike Merritt were silent after
George made a motion to tem-
porarily suspend LAGs contract
while the in-house investigation
is under way. Council Chairman
Bill Barrett, another former city
police chief, was excused from
the last council meeting.
There was some uncertainty
as to whether Georges request
could be followed, and city so-
licitor Tim Henry was asked to
research the issue.
Drew McLaughlin, the citys
administrative coordinator, said
on Friday that George was in-
correct in his interpretation of
the contract. Theres no action
short of terminating the con-
tract that can be taken by the
administration, he said.
The contract went into effect
on May 1, 2005 for one year and
contained four, automatic, one-
year renewal periods. Upon
the May 1, 2010 termination
date, it was either to be rebid
or re-executed. But the city,
saying it was in its best inter-
est, amended and extended it
on May 1, 2009 with identical
terms subject only to the termi-
nation and default provisions
of the contract. The contract
expires on May 1, 2015.
The annual $50,050 fee is
to be paid in May for services
provided for the previous 12
months, McLaughlin said.

Fairmount Township resident
Michael S. Giamber has an-
nounced his candidacy for Lu-
zerne County Council.
A Democrat, Giamber said
he spends most of his time as
a citizen-activist and proponent
for the countys home rule gov-
ernment.
If given the opportunity to
serve, I will focus my efforts on
tax control and economic de-
velopment, said Giamber, who
lives near Ricketts Glen State
Park.
Giamber, 59, was chairman
of the Friends
of Home Rule
political action
c o m m i t t e e
that pushed
for adoption
of home rule
and said he
remains com-
mitted to the
success of the charter and the
concept of self-governance. He
believes home rule is a better
form of government, he said,
with the right leadership.
My goal is to devote full
time to the position of part-time
councilman, said Giamber. I
pledge not to raise property
taxes until I am completely sat-
ised the county has done all it
can to eliminate wasteful spend-
ing and inefcient practices.
He plans to develop and pro-
pose policies that cultivate an
environment geared towards
restarting Luzerne Countys
economic engine, creating jobs
and encouraging residential and
commercial growth, he said.
Born and raised in Pittston,
Giamber graduated from St.
John the Evangelist High School
and received a bachelors degree
in business management from
National-Louis University, Chi-
cago.
He is retired from the federal
government in Washington,
D.C., where he managed a di-
verse staff at six Department
of Defense Naval installations,
including the Bethesda Naval
Hospital, and oversaw facil-
ity operations at the world-class
National Gallery of Art.

ing a casino. To get that shot in
the arm is nice.
Original intent
Creating that pool was some-
thing legislators tucked into the
146-page bill that legalized slot
machines across Pennsylvania in
a 2004 provision that allocates
2 percent of the gross slot ma-
chine revenue generated at the
casino toward community and
economic development projects
in Luzerne County.
The thinking then was to give
preference to projects in the ven-
ues host municipality Plains
Township and the contiguous
municipalities of Bear Creek,
Jenkins and Wilkes-Barre town-
ships, Wilkes-Barre city and the
boroughs of Forty Fort, Kings-
ton, Lain, Laurel Run and Wy-
oming. The state Department
of Community and Economic
Development was tasked with
awarding applicants under the
original bill.
Retired state representative
Tom Tigue, who voted in favor
of the slots bill when he was in
ofce in 2004, said there were
many discussions about how to
allocate the local revenue.
Provisions were added to the
bills nal version that the House
approved 113-88 and the Senate
passed 30-20 before then-Gov.
Ed Rendell signed it into law.
They spelled out how a local
share assessment account would
be handled in each county where
a casino operated.
For Luzerne County, the local
Democratic delegation of two
senators and six House mem-
bers agreed to support a version
that included the percentage of
revenues staying local and being
allocated with preference given
to the host municipality and
nearby communities. The two
local Republicans voted against
the measure.
Tigue a member of the
Democratic delegation said
the thinking was that the casino
would bring heavy trafc and
possibly the need for increased
police presence to the Route 315
stretch that runs by the Mohe-
gan Sun at Pocono Downs.
Some of that ended up being
overestimated, Tigue said.
When table games were subse-
quently legalized in 2010, slots
bill language was changed that
shifted the government body
responsible for sorting through
grant requests from DCED to
the newly created Common-
wealth Financing Authority. In
addition, the law allowed each of
the countys 76 municipalities to
apply for funding on equal foot-
ing, regardless of proximity to
the casino.
Job creation projects
While hes glad to see funds
generated in Luzerne County
staying here, state Sen. John
Yudichak said he doesnt al-
ways agree with the way the Lo-
cal Share Assessment Account
funds are allocated.
Its terric to have an annual
appropriation coming to the
county, said Yudichak, D-Plym-
outh Township, who was a mem-
ber of the state House when he
voted in favor of the 2004 bill
legalizing slot machines. Is the
process perfect? Absolutely not.
He said he would prefer to see
funds go toward applications
that stress projects of regional
value that create jobs.
The rst year the grant pro-
gram was in operation, DCED
weighed several key factors in
reviewing the 72 requests seek-
ing $83 million. Preferred con-
sideration was given to projects
that were ready and had commu-
nity support. Requests exceeded
money 7 to 1, so the competition
was stiff.
Even with the host/contigu-
ous municipalities factor in-
volved then, seven of the 17
projects awarded funding were
in municipalities not in that clas-
sication. Among the recipients
of the $11,556,096 were:
* $562,500 to Pittston for
downtown revitalization and
streetscape improvements.
* $627,500 to Plymouth for
Main Street development.
* $500,000 to Nanticoke on
behalf of Luzerne County Com-
munity College to relocate and
expand its new Culinary Insti-
tute in the citys downtown.
Yudichak blamed the dimin-
ishing pool of other state grants
as the reason so many applica-

GAMBLING ON PROGRESS: WHERE GAMING MONEY WENT
Luzerne County municipalities have been awarded more than $73 million in grants from gambling revenue since 2008, though in some cases money was not used. To give an idea of
countywide distribution, The Times Leader grouped receiving municipalities into roughly adjacent regions, though a few were grouped generally as southwest.

*** First two years of funding were revoked due to design problems
Newport Township needs
a new municipal building to
house township ofces and the
police department. So township
ofcials applied for a $775,000
grant from the more than $12
million in available funds this
year generated by play at slot
machines at the Mohegan Sun
at Pocono Downs casino.
When word came last month
that only $500,000 was award-
ed, a decision needed to be
made: Forfeit the funds with a
thanks but no thanks letter or
pick up the remaining $275,000
cost from township coffers.
Township Manager Richard
Zika said a new building was
needed to replace the 1911
structure currently used, and
$500,000 was a signicant
amount toward that goal. So
the township will proceed with
the project and come up with
the difference.
Well gure out something
else, Zika said, noting that oth-
er grant funding sources will be
explored. You dont get many
shots at it. Weve been after
this for four years. Were very
pleased.
This is a common theme in
recent rounds of gaming grant
allocations, as more projects
are being issued funding to
cover only a portion albeit
in many cases, a substantial
one of the needed projects or
purchases.
In Rice Township, Secretary-
Treasurer Don Armstrong
said a new police cruiser and
a dump truck are needed, but
the Commonwealth Financing
Authority the board tasked
with sorting through annual
applications for gaming funds
and making awards awarded
only $50,000 to purchase both
vehicles. The dump truck alone
has a price tag of $70,000, and
the cruiser will run another
$33,000.
But the board will make the
purchases anyway, and the
township will pay the $53,000
difference, Armstrong said.
Thats the same thought-
process in Ashley, where the
102-year-old borough building
is three-quarters condemned
and plans were drawn up to
build a new building in a vacant
lot next door.
Borough Secretary Christine
Casey said the borough re-
quested $810,000, the amount
needed to pay for 100 percent
of the new building.
But the award came through
at less than half of that amount.
With $400,000 in hand and
a necessity to leave the cur-
rent building, the borough will
make due. The design has been
scaled back and will likely end
up costing about $600,000,
meaning the borough will foot
the $200,000 difference.
We have to take it, Casey
said. Its either that or we put
up a trailer and operate out of
that.
Not everyone takes the full
amount theyre awarded.
Bear Creek Township re-
ceived $275,461 for road work
near state Route 115. The origi-
nal estimates didnt pan out and
culvert work on Old East End
Boulevard ended up costing
only $89,890, so the township
will forfeit the rest of the grant.
Some municipalities dont
take any.
In 2008, Duryea was awarded
$792,546 to pay for acid mine
drainage remediation in the
Lackawanna River. After look-
ing into the scope of the work
more closely, the cost projec-
tions came in much higher
than originally thought, said
Lois Morreale, borough man-
ager. The borough didnt have
the amount of funds to chip in
to make a dent with xing the
problem, she said, so the proj-
ect was scrapped and the funds
returned.
In Forty Fort, a $100,000
grant for an emergency he-
licopter parking area at the
Wyoming Valley Airport was
awarded but turned down by
the borough after the price of
the work was much higher than
the grant would have covered,
according to Borough Manager
Barbara Fairchild.
Colleges, police departments
and infrastructure projects have
really hit the jackpot with the
allocation of local share grants
from the state gaming fund, an
analysis shows.
As state Sen. John Yudichak,
D-Plymouth Township, gave a
recent walking tour to state of-
cials and dignitaries of down-
town Nanticoke, the jewel of the
jaunt was Luzerne County Com-
munity College.
Yudichak beamed with pride
last month when showing off the
colleges culinary and health sci-
ences buildings on Main Street.
Along with Lt. Gov. Jim Cawley,
state Department of Commu-
nity and Economic Develop-
ment staff members and college
ofcials, Yudichak spoke about
how state funding helped infuse
redevelopment in parts of the
downtown by helping LCCC,
the citys largest employer.
LCCC received $500,000 in
2008 and 2009 for the reloca-
tion and construction of its cu-
linary institute. In 2010, LCCC
received another grant totalling
$1,023,331 to expand its Health
Sciences Center and an addi-
tional $500,000 for the culinary
institute.
Other area colleges also have
beneted from gaming grants.
In Wilkes-Barre, two years
ago Wilkes University received
$2,055,254 to help pay for con-
struction costs of its Science
Center, and Misericordia Uni-
versity in Dallas Township was
awarded $150,000 this year
to install a sidewalk on both
sides of Lake Street from Cen-
ter Hill Road to the universitys
entrance. Misericordia also re-
ceived $750,000 for its College
of Health Sciences building on
Lake Street.
The list of 86 applicants that
have received gaming funds is
dotted with transportation-re-
lated and emergency response-
related projects, but few are in
that ve-mile radius from the
casino that original bill support-
ers thought would see police de-
partments and infrastructure so
strained by the casino.
Among the grants geared to-
ward emergency response uses
are the purchase of police vehi-
cles in Rice Township, Swoyers-
ville, Forty Fort, Hughestown,
Wilkes-Barre, Nescopeck and
Sugar Notch.
Funding also has been allo-
cated to build a re station in
Hanover Township, a police sta-
tion annex in West Hazleton and
police stations in Swoyersville,
Wyoming and Pittston Town-
ship. The funds also have been
used to expand the police sta-
tion in Wilkes-Barre Township.
Municipalities also requested
and were awarded grants for
municipal building construction
or renovations in Avoca, Har-
veys Lake, Newport Township,
Ashley and Duryea.
Likewise, transportation and
infrastructure projects have
received plenty of the funding
since 2008.
The largest allocations were
$2.4 million a year over a ve-
year span for the state Route
315 and Interstate 81 project re-
design in the vicinity of the Cen-
terPoint Trade & Commerce
Park in Jenkins Township.
The $12 million project is
more than double the next larg-
est allocation, the $4.8 million
awarded for the Intermodal Cen-
ter in Hazleton.
In addition to those two proj-
ects, infrastructure grants of
$1 million or more have been
awarded for: paving and deco-
rative street lighting improve-
ments in Kingston, and East
Mountain Drive road improve-
ments in Plains Township.

The Ashley Borough Building is scheduled to be demolished and a new building constructed in a
vacant lot next door. The project is being paid for partly with local share gaming grants gener-
ated through slot machine play at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs.
Few recipients are in ve-mile
radius of casino, as bills
original supporters envisioned.

Gaming grants dont always cover full cost of municipal projects
G A M I n G G R A n T S
tions have been made recently
for projects that might not have
been attempted in previous
years. They include recycling,
energy-efciency and handicap-
accessibility projects.
He said hed like to see more
economic development plans be-
ing pushed and awarded grants.
The time might be coming to
once again review the eligibility
and preferences for the types of
projects to receive funds, Yudi-
chak said.
Other perspectives
State Rep. Mike Carroll, D-
Avoca, succeeded Tigue in of-
ce and supported the change in
the way the local share is to be
handed out. He never thought it
was right to create an advantage
for some municipalities.
While he agrees some projects
that receive funding are not in
line with the original intent of
the provision economic de-
velopment and public safety
he sees nothing wrong with re-
cycling programs or community
theaters receiving funding.
Residents in those municipali-
ties also deserve to benet from
the casinos revenues, said Car-
roll, in part because their resi-
dents patronize Mohegan Sun.
In order to allow the Free-
lands and the Jeddos and the
Foster Townships of the world
to participate, the door had to
be allowed to be opened wider,
Carroll said.
He also touched on a topic
thats been a thorny one since
the slots bill went into effect:
property tax reduction.
One of the major selling
points of legalizing casinos was
the promise of property tax re-
duction. While tax increases
have been reduced, people have
made it clear to elected ofcials
that the system hasnt worked
the way it was promised.
Carroll disagrees, saying that
taxes would be much higher if
not for the casino funds. Some
people have argued that instead
of using the local share to bene-
t private projects or municipali-
ties, the money should go into a
pot to additionally reduce prop-
erty taxes countywide each year.
Carroll said that when factor-
ing in the dollar amount generat-
ed (about $12 million annually)
with the number of eligible prop-
erties in the county for property
tax reduction (87,000) it would
come out to an average per prop-
erty of $137 per year.
State Sen. Lisa Baker, R-Lehm-
an Township said: dedicating
all the proceeds to property tax
relief would have minimal ad-
ditional benet to homeowners
across the state. Efforts would
be better devoted to the prop-
erty tax elimination proposals
offered again this session.
Mike Bean, the president of
Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs,
said it should be noted the bills
intent was to reduce the annual
tax increases that were burden-
ing families across the state.
Carroll said the benet of the
grants for municipalities offset
the dollars taxpayers would have
to spend on police car purchas-
es, paving projects, municipal
buildings and more.
Baker noted: There is no
doubt that many of the projects
funded have offered a tremen-
dous community benet with-
out the need to seek additional
taxpayer dollars. For example,
when the roof of the Hoyt Li-
brary collapsed and destroyed
the Childrens Activity Center,
Kingston was able to utilize
gaming money to make the re-
pairs.
Vocal complaints
Like most competitive grant
programs, Carroll and Yudichak
both said that when some proj-
ects are selected over others,
it causes animosity and com-
plaints about the process.
However you do this, there
are people that think theyre
getting short-changed, Carroll
said.
Swoyersville Councilman Joe
Olejnick is among them.
The borough has applied for
funding each year that the grant
money has been available, but
only been the recipient once. It
received $360,292 for a new po-
lice station and some cruisers.
He said he sees the same
towns getting funding each year,
mentioning Plains Township,
Wilkes-Barre, Kingston and
Hazleton, and he wonders why
Swoyersville, which is closer to
Plains Township than Kingston
and Hazleton, usually ends up a
loser.
He suggested tweaking the
law to allow municipalities that
get funding to be prohibited
from applying for a year or two
so others can compete. The cur-
rent process just doesnt seem
fair, he said, and hes urged
borough residents to contact
legislators to express those feel-
ings.
While lawmakers can lobby
for projects or lend their sup-
port, the decision rests with the
Commonwealth Financing Au-
thority.
That seven-member board is
made up of the secretaries of
Banking, Community and Eco-
nomic Development, and the
Budget, the heads of the Greater
Scranton and Greater Pittsburgh
chambers of commerce, and the
presidents of two private real es-
tate companies, one from Phila-
delphia, one from Pittsburgh.
Worthy projects lose
Its not a pretty process,
Yudichak said. Its not an easy
process. Theres a lot of worthy
projects that go unfunded.
In the latest round that oc-
curred last month, among the
applications for projects that did
not get funding was the restora-
tion of the historic Irem Tem-
ple mosque on North Franklin
Street, Wilkes-Barre.
The Greater Wilkes-Barre De-
velopment Corp. an arm of
the Chamber of Commerce
did not get approval for its appli-
cation for $2.4 million to secure
the building and stop vandalism
contributing to the buildings
deterioration.
Naturally, we are disappoint-
ed, said Chamber President
and Chief Executive Ofcer Bill
Moore. We realize there are lots
of deserving projects out there.
Year after year applications
for projects are denied grants.
This year alone, 58 projects were
rejected, including $2 million for
an upgrade of the Shickshinny
Sanitary Sewer Plant, $1.7 mil-
lion for a Wyoming sewer proj-
ect and $710,000 to expand the
Wright Township municipal
building.
Theres no perfect system for
distribution, Carroll said.

GAMING
Oct. 1-3, though Francis is al-
ready in contact with the groups
members, the Vatican said. No
other dates were announced,
an indication that Francis is in
no particular hurry to overhaul
things.
The Vatican spokesman,
the Rev. Federico Lombardi,
stressed that the cardinals
are a consultative body, not a
decision-making one, and that
they wont take the place of the
Vatican bureaucracy. His com-
ments appeared aimed at reas-
suring Vatican bureaucrats that
they werent being sidelined by
a counterweight advisory body
that better reects the geograph-
ic distribution of todays church.
The church is growing and
counts most of the worlds
Catholics in the southern hemi-
sphere, while its shrinking in
Europe. Yet the Vatican and the
200-strong College of Cardinals,
traditionally the popes primary
advisers, remain heavily Euro-
pean.
Lombardi said the fact that
Francis selected cardinals from
every continent indicated he
wanted to reect the universal
nature of the church in Vatican
decision-making.
The Roman Curia retains all
its fundamental functions help-
ing the pope in the daily gover-
nance of the universal church,
Lombardi told Vatican Radio.
The naming of this group adds
to this, in a certain sense inte-
grates it, with a universal point
of viewand voices fromdifferent
parts of the world.
The members of the panel
include Italian Cardinal Gi-
useppe Bertello, president of
the Vatican city state adminis-
tration a key position that
oversees, among other things,
the Vaticans prot-making mu-
seums. The non-Vatican ofcials
include Cardinals Francisco Ja-
vier Errazuriz Ossa, the retired
archbishop of Santiago, Chile;
Oswald Gracias, archbishop of
Mumbai, India; Reinhard Marx,
archbishop of Munich and Fre-
ising, Germany; Laurent Mon-
sengwo Pasinya, archbishop of
Kinshasa, Congo; Sean Patrick
OMalley, the archbishop of
Boston; George Pell, archbishop
of Sydney, Australia; and Oscar
Andrs Rodrguez Maradiaga,
archbishop of Tegucigalpa, Hon-
duras, who will serve as coordi-
nator.
Monsignor Marcello Semer-
aro, bishop of Albano, Italy will
be the panel secretary.
OMalley, a Capuchin friar,
has spent his career cleaning up
churches from sexually abusive
priests. Pell was outspoken in
the run-up to the conclave about
the need for reform in the bu-
reaucracy. Maradiaga heads the
churchs Caritas International
charity federa-
tion and is a rare moderate in
the College of Cardinals who
hasnt shied from criticizing the
failings of the curia.
In theory, all popes have car-
dinals at their disposal to serve
as advisers; advising the pope is
a cardinals main job aside from
voting in conclaves. But neither
John Paul nor Benedict made
frequent use of their cardinal ad-
visers, in part because they were
so far away and numbered more
than 200.
With such a small group of
men hand-picked by the pope to
specically advise him in run-
ning the church and reforming
the Vatican, it appears Francis
wants a more collegial type
of governance for his papacy.
That also would meld with his
reluctance to call himself pope
in favor of his other main title,
bishop of Rome.
That said, the former Cardinal
Jorge Mario Bergoglio is on re-
cord saying that when it comes
time to actually making deci-
sions, he is very much a loner.
One can ask for advice but, in
the end, one must decide alone,
he said in the 2010 book The
Jesuit written by his authorized
biographer. Doing so means
making mistakes, and Bergo-
glio acknowledged he had made
plenty in his lifetime.
Thats why the important
thing is to ask God, he said.
In the run-up to his election,
cardinals were very clear that
the status quo of the Vatican was
untenable. Naming a commis-
sion of advisers including those
most critical of the status quo
indicates major reform could be
on the horizon.
Some cardinals said they
wanted term limits on Vatican
jobs to prevent priests from
becoming career bureaucrats.
They wanted consolidated -
nancial reports to remove the
cloak of secrecy from the Vati-
cans murky nances. And they
wanted regular Cabinet meet-
ings where department heads
actually talk to one another to
make the Vatican a help to the
churchs evangelizing mission,
not a hindrance.
They also said they wanted
the Vatican to serve the bishops
in the eld, and not the other
way around.
It just doesnt work either
very quickly or very efciently,
U.S. Cardinal Francis George,
the archbishop of Chicago, said
in an interview soon after Fran-
cis was elected. Take marriage
cases: People shouldnt have to
be asked to wait three, four, ve,
six years to get a response for a
request for an annulment.
Aside from Saturdays an-
nouncement, Francis has made
one Vatican appointment so far,
naming a member of his name-
sake Franciscan order to the
important No. 2 spot at the Vati-
cans congregation for religious
orders.
Assistant Fire Chief Frank
Hawk recently told The
Times Leader that Gamble
and Drago, his grandmother,
are still ofcers at the re sta-
tion, but said he could not
comment on the pending
criminal case.
The remaining members
(of the hose company) hold
faith that the legal trial will
show that no money was
taken by any member, Hawk
said.
Prosecutors viewpont
State police allege the two
women used their positions
as ofcers with the hose
company to pilfer money col-
lected through bingo games
the department held during a
three-year period.
The mother and daughter
were charged in December
2008 after an investigation
that began in 2005 with the
state Bureau of Charitable Or-
ganizations. They are sched-
uled to stand trial on related
charges on July 29.
Their attorneys could not
be reached for comment last
week. Court records do not
indicate the two are prohib-
ited from having contact with
the re department.
According to state grants
awarded by the Ofce of the
State Fire Commissioner, for
the 2009-10 operating year,
Gamble applied for an $8,484
grant to purchase portable ra-
dios, pagers and accessories
for reghters. The grant was
awarded, according to the ap-
plication.
The following operating
year, 2010-11, Gamble ap-
plied for and received an
$8,455 grant for the depart-
ment for the removal and
replacement of a gas hot air
furnace at the station as well
as the purchase of a $4,756
computer system and $700
printer.
This years application was
submitted by Frank J. Hawk
and requested $15,000 to
install a no-smoke diesel ex-
haust on the companys re
engine. The engine is being
housed at the West Wyoming
department, but is still being
dispatched to respond to calls
in Swoyersville.
A grant totaling $11,661
was awarded.
All the money (awarded in
grants) is used for Swoyers-
ville work to better serve the
residents of Swoyersville,
Hawk said.
The station is trying to get
back up and running, has
been responding to emergen-
cy calls and hopes to continue
to receive support from the
residents, he said.
Were trying to serve the
best we can, said Hawk, re-
ferring to the eight to 10 re-
maining members of the sta-
tion.
There were no applications
made for 2008-09.
The applications say the
station has 10 active volun-
teer personnel, and had 25
active volunteers in 2010-11.
The previous operating year,
the station had 15 members,
according to the grant appli-
cations.
Family involvement
Gamble and Drago do
not live in Swoyersville, but
Hawk said his family has
been involved with the re
department for some time;
he is a third-generation vol-
unteer. Gamble lives in West
Pittston, while her mother
lives in Forty Fort.
Borough ofcials last
month believed the re sta-
tion was closed due to an
inability to contact any mem-
bers and because little or no
activity was observed at the
station.
Ofcials also were aware
the companys re truck was
being dispatched from a West
Wyoming re station and that
the West Wyoming re sta-
tions broken-down truck was
being stored in the Swoyers-
ville Volunteer Hose Co. 1s
garage.

a picture of, said Larry Cook,
of Cook & Cook Estate Liqui-
dators on Carey Street, Plains
Township. This will be a very
special day for the entire re-
gion.
When Cook and his wife
asked Carter to speak at the
monument, they gave him a
packet of information about it
and the historic battle, Cook
said. They included pictures of
the monument and information
on visits to the site by President
Rutherford B. Hayes and Presi-
dent Teddy Roosevelt.
Cook said a silent auction
will be held at the dinner event
and the painting should be the
top item.
President Carter really sur-
prised us in painting the picture
of the monument, he said.
Following Carters speech at
the monument, individuals can
pay $100 to meet the former
president and get a photograph,
Cook said. Tickets remain for
the Tuesday night dinner at
$575 per person, he said. All
proceeds of the dinner, meet-
and-greet event and auction go
to the Plains Better Hometown
Program in Carters hometown
of Plains, Ga. He sits on the or-
ganizations board.
Cook and his wife really
werent all that surprised when
they learned about Carters
painting, he said.
He always goes above and
beyond to help raise money
for the Better Hometown Pro-
gram, said Cook. And he re-
ally loves this area.
A painting done by Carter
sold at an auction at Cook &
Cook in 2011 for $15,000, Cook
said. The former presidents
paintings have sold for as high
as $200,000, he said.
People who cant attend the
dinner can still bid on the presi-
dents painting by calling Cook
& Cook.
Carter, 88, served as presi-
dent from 1977 to 1981.
The Carters were guests of
the Cooks in 2011 at an auction
beneting the preservation and
restoration of Plains, Ga. Larry
Cook came up with the name
of the fundraiser, Plains Help-
ing Plains, which he founded
in 2010.
The Cooks and Carters have
been friends since 2004.
The Cooks have worked on
several projects with the Cart-
ers, including in 2012 a stained
glass window project, the result
of which now resides at the
Plains Historical Inn, in Geor-
gia. They currently are working
on getting welcome signs made
for the main entries to Plains,
Ga.
Im absolutely elated that
this is going to happy, said
Marcella Starr, president of
the Wyoming Monument As-
sociation. I cannot wait for this
event to happen.
The Wyoming Monument
was struck by lightning in 2008.
Starr oversaw a complete resto-
ration, thanks to the donation
of $100,000 by the late Pocono
Racetrack owner, Dr. Joseph
Mattioli.
Wyoming Mayor Bob Boyer
said overow parking for the
presidents visit will be avail-
able at the Flack Field Complex,
where shuttle buses will be pro-
vided.
We are going to be doing
a proclamation on that day,
proclaiming it Jimmy Carter
Day, and we plan on throwing
a warm welcome for the presi-
dent, Boyer said.

Heres a
truly inspir-
ing genealogy
story.
The March-
april issue
of the aarP
magazine
features an article in which
prominent journalist raymond
M. Lane, of Washington, D.C.,
discusses the quest that led him
to discovery of his biological fa-
ther, and his roots in both Ireland
and Wilkes-Barre, all previously
unknown to him.
Lanes great-grandfather,
famine-era Irish immigrant
Michael Morris, founded a
milling business in Luzerne
County, according to the smith-
Harvey History of Wilkes-Barre,
Luzerne County, Pennsylvania.
Morris son (Lanes grandfather)
was a lawyer in Wilkes-Barre and
for a time was owner and editor
of the Hazleton Plain speaker
newspaper.
In the aarP article, Lane
says that his initial genealogical
searches on popular websites did
not produce what he wanted. so
he turned to local researcher ann
Kosicki of the Northeast Pennsyl-
vania Genealogical society, who
helped himunearth his long-
unknown ancestry.
What Lanes experience
demonstrates is that there is a
good deal of local information
available to the genealogist here
in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
You can tap into that information
protably fromafar, provided
that you knowwhere it is.
The places to start, of course,
are the genealogical society, the
major libraries (such as the Os-
terhout) and the Luzerne County
Historical society.
Our areas research facilities
are heavy on local history and
biography. The huge, multi-
volume smith-Harvey is just one
source. If you search the libraries,
you will nd numerous other
volumes fromthe 19th and early-
20th centuries giving biographies
and even genealogies of people
who started businesses, prac-
ticed lawor medicine, served
in public ofce, farmed and fol-
lowed numerous other technical
and professional callings.
Numerous other sources, such
as newspaper microlms and
historical maps, can ll out a
search.
are you too far away for a
visit? Those libraries have web-
sites offering research services,
for modest fees. Websites for
local libraries and organizations,
incidentally, will offer far more
targeted materials than national
websites.
Yes, Lanes story is inspiring.
But its also educational, showing
that we live in a great place for
research into the misty days of
our ancestors.

research library of the Northeast
Pennsylvania Genealogical soci-

C
d
life, said Urell, who encour-
ages other people to explore the
option.
The Wilkes-Barre Racing orga-
nization, which raises money for
and awareness of foster care and
adoption through a series of an-
nual races, has chosenRegina and
her daughters as the 2013 Fam-
ily of the Year, executive director
Rich Pais said.
Regina Urell has opened her
heart and her home to ve won-
derful girls, Pais said. She is
a single mom with more faith,
courage and love than anyone can
imagine.
With ve active children, the
Urells family life can seem cha-
otic, especially if they all seem to
be talking at once. Heres a sam-
ple of a few minutes on a recent
Wednesday afternoon when the
group stepped out into the yard
to have their photograph taken:
Mommy, my shoe is hurting
my foot.
You can take it off.
Can I take my shoe off, too?
Shes eating grass!
Alexa, we are not eating
grass.
Oh, what did she do?
Its not nice to close the door in
someones face.
Look, I wrote my name my-
self!
Back in the house, when they
quieted down momentarily with
their coloring books, Urell admit-
ted her gang keeps me busy.
A typical day after school
for the older girls and day care
for the youngest ones includes
home, homework, dinner, show-
ers and bed, Urell said.
Special fun ranges from gym-
nastics and dance to karate and
soccer.
Urell enjoys all these growing-
up rituals because, she explained,
its giving her a chance to enjoy
childhood activities she never ex-
perienced as a youngster herself.
With a leukemia diagnosis at
age 4 and a relapse at age 7, she
spent many of her early years un-
dergoing cancer treatments.
I was in a wheelchair for a
year. They said Id never walk
again. I was on a morphine pump
24 hours a day, Urell remembers.
But she survived, and she
walks. She graduated from Penn
State/Worthington, married and
divorced, and holds a job as a TSS
(therapeutic staff support) work-
er, helping three autism-spectrum
clients each day.
Then she comes home to her
ve daughters, some of whom
also are on the autism spectrum
and/or have attention decit dis-
order.
Its just a coincidence, she
said of that similarity between
her adopted family and the chil-
dren with whomshe works.
Her path to motherhood be-
gan several years ago when she
became a foster parent to a boy
she still considers part of the fam-
ily, though he now lives with his
grandmother. He comes to see
us every other weekend, she
said.
Then she became a foster par-
ent toEmilyandCourtney, whose
younger siblings at the time were
in another foster home.
When one of her girls was hav-
ing a birthday, Urell planned a
party and invited the younger sis-
ters, but the other foster mother
wouldnt let the younger girls at-
tend.
Urells disappointment turned
to determination.
I thought they all should be
together, Urell said, explaining
how she exchanged her smaller
vehicle for a minivan and bought
additional beds to ready her
home for all ve.
Just as she didnt ask to have
leukemia, she said, these girls
didnt ask to be in their situation
either. I could not stand by and
not give them a chance to experi-
ence the childhood I missed.
The adoption procedure took
a year and was completed in De-
cember. It seemed like a long
time to me, but other people have
told me thats not so long, Urell
said.
Earlier in her life, Urell said,
foster care appealed to her be-
cause it was temporary. But
now she is enthusiastic about
the stability of a forever family,
a unit. If she ever were to con-
sider marrying again, she said,
it would have to be to someone
who welcomed her children.
Were a package deal.
For now, shes put her house
up for sale because she needs
more room. Her current house
in a Clarks Summit develop-
ment has only two bedrooms,
with the girls ve beds lling
the larger room.
Im actually looking for a
mother/daughter house, she
said, explaining that would
have enough room for her, the
girls and her parents, Harry
and Theresa Burd, who now
live several hours away.
Regina is an amazing per-
son, Pais of Wilkes-Barre Rac-
ing said. She is a light shining
into the lives of everyone she
touches.
Pais, who is an adoptive fa-
ther himself, said Wilkes-Barre
racing is starting a grant pro-
gram for young athletes in the
foster and adoption commu-
nity.
From now on, all foster par-
ents and kids will race with us
for free, he said. And we have
scholarships for foster kids
who want to race anywhere in
Northeastern Pennsylvania.

AMap of Tulsa by Benjamin
Lytal; Penguin ($15, paperback)
Jim Praley is a young man en-
tering that stage of adulthood
when life-dening romances un-
fold. Its the summer after his rst
year of college back east, and his
romantic yearnings have brought
him to a most unlikely place
the center of Tulsa.
The biggest city inOklahoma is
both a hometown and the center
of the known universe to Jim, the
protagonist of Benjamin Lytals
tender and engaging debut novel,
A Map of Tulsa. Jims deep am-
bivalence about his hometown is
already plain to see during the
rst hours hes back home.
I came back to Tulsa for
different reasons, Jim says. To
prove that it was empty. And in
hopes that it was not.
Jim is a poet. He wants to be
a great one, but hes from Tulsa,
and hes never associated that
oil town with great art. There is
nothing sublime about Tulsas
humble skyline, its big-box stores,
its thoroughfares that lead into
the Great Plains. Or so it seems.
Soon, however, Jim meets a
Tulsa original. Adrienne Booker
is a member of a subspecies he
didnt know existed before: she
is an Oklahoma aristocrat, a
wealthy high school dropout who
lives in the penthouse of a down-
town tower built by her family.
Shes deep in oil money.
Adrienne creates art and she
sees beauty in the Tulsa land-
scape. She becomes Jims guide
to the citys enchantments. Jim
falls for her hard. But eventually
he falls even harder for Tulsa.
A Map of Tulsa is in many
ways a conventional coming-of-
age story. As the novel opens, Jim
is just old enough to wander away
from home and get drunk, but he
still feels the need to answer to
his parents, who are schoolteach-
ers. Theyrespondtohis artsynew
Tulsa friends by saying things like
you have to be safe and you
dont knowthese people, Jim.
This being the center of the
Bible belt, Jim defends his new
bohemian friends with a quote
from scripture: I know them by
their works, he says, referring to
their art. Jimwas raisedto believe
premarital sex ruined people,
but with his new lover and her
friends, there are no boundaries.
Jim is a character imbued with
pioneer ambitionandMidwestern
earnestness. He wants to embrace
the world, but he doesnt want to
lose himself either. The tension
between the cosmopolitan and
provincial, the sensuous and the
chaste, is a big reason why A
Map of Tulsa is so memorable.
Like its protagonist, Lytal is a
native of Tulsa who studied in the
East andlater sloggedaway inthe
salt mines of the New York liter-
ary world. His great achievement
in AMap of Tulsa is to bring his
hometown to life as a place where
all sorts of American ghosts can
be found living amid the seem-
ingly generic landscape of a mid-
sized, middle-American city.
Most of Tulsas enchantments
are to be found within the con-
nes of its inner dispersal loop.
Here, Tulsas early 20th century
elite built their homes, complete
with Arcadian backyards. At a
party withAdrienne, Jimwanders
into a basement where he discov-
ers the head of a bear, velvet-lined
strongboxes, an English saddle
and a series of light bulbs whose
strings he pulls one at a time.
But the literal summit of Jims
Tulsa wanderings is the Art Deco
tower where Adrienne lives in a
penthouse. They can walk a few
blocks around Adriennes build-
ing and feel theyre in Manhattan,
though its an illusion.
Neither Jim nor Adrienne can
complete themselves in Tulsa.
Halfway through A Map of Tul-
sa they hear the siren song of
Americas opposite coasts.
When Jim returns to Tulsa in
the second half of A Map of Tul-
sa after many years and many
low-paying but prestigious New
York jobs hes wiser, more self-
assured and a bit jaded. Atragedy
has unfolded, putting Jim and
all his Tulsa friends in a reec-
tive mood. In these pages, Lytal
moves Jim credibly into adult-
hood, but his novel loses much of
its momentumas he does so.
In the end, however, Lytal
brings Jims story back to a mean-
ingful and moving place. Not
surprisingly, that rich emotional
terrain is to be found in the heart
of an underappreciated American
city named Tulsa.

NEW YORK With the
movie 42 bringing the Jackie
Robinson story to a new genera-
tion, fans young and old may be
inspired to visit some of the plac-
es in Brooklyn connected to the
African-American athlete who
integrated Major League Base-
ball when he joined the Brooklyn
Dodgers in 1947.
In Coney Island, a statue por-
trays Robinson and Pee Wee Re-
ese, the white Dodger who stood
by himin the face of racist taunts.
At the cemetery on the border
of Brooklyn and Queens where
Robinson is buried, admirers still
leave baseballs and other memen-
tos. And for fans who enjoy irony
or who remain bitter about
the Dodgers departure to Los
Angeles in 1957 theres a No
Ball Playing sign at the housing
complex where the Dodgers sto-
ried stadium, Ebbets Field, once
stood.
Joseph Dorinson, author of
Jackie Robinson: Race, Sports
and the American Dream, says
its no accident that the color bar-
rier was broken by a Brooklyn
team. Jackie made it in Brook-
lyn, and no other place, because
of the multicultural and ethnic
diversity here, he said. That di-
versity still exists here today.
Heres a guide to exploring
Jackie Robinsons Brooklyn.
STATUE
The life-size statue in Coney
Island shows Robinson and Reese
arm in arm. Its inscribed with
the story of how Reese, captain
of the Dodgers, stood by Jackie
Robinson against prejudiced fans
and fellow players silencing
the taunts of the crowd during a
game in Cincinnati. The statue is
locatedoutside MCUPark, where
the minor league Cyclones team
plays at Surf Avenue and West
17th Street, near the last stop on
the D, F, N or Q train to Coney
Island.
HOME ANDCHURCH
Robinson lived in several plac-
es in Brooklyn before moving to
Queens and later Connecticut
with his wife and children. On a
tidy block in East Flatbush, a two-
story brick house at 5224 Tilden
Ave. with a rusting fence and
peeling paint bears a plaque that
states: The rst African-Ameri-
can major league baseball player
livedhere from1947 to 1949. Lo-
cal ofcials have started an effort
to landmark the house.
Robinson and his wife, Rachel,
also lived for a time at 526 Mac-
Donough St. in Bedford-Stuyves-
ant. Although much of the
movie was lmed in the South,
some scenes were shot on Mac-
Donough because the lmmak-
ers wanted to showthe buildings
distinctive front stoop, a common
feature of Brooklyn homes. The
production company used the
Nazarene Congregational Church
at 506 MacDonough St. for stor-
age and wardrobe while lming,
according to Nazarenes pastor,
the Rev. Conrad Tillard.
When Robinson rst arrived in
NewYork, he livedfor a time with
Nazarenes then-assistant pastor,
the Rev. Lacy Covington and his
wife, Florence. Church and faith
were central to Jackie Robinsons
success, said Tony Carnes, who
publishes an online magazine
called A Journey Through NYC
Religions.
Nazarene was considered a
mink coat church at the time,
Tillard said, with an educated, af-
uent African-American congre-
gation. Robinson later came back
to the church to make an impas-
sioned speech about the dangers
of drugs, Tillard said. Robinsons
son, Jack, whod served in the
VietnamWar, was a heroinaddict.
GRAVE SITE
Robinson died in 1972, just a
year after his sondiedinacar acci-
dent. They are buried, along with
the Covingtons and Robinsons
mother-in-law, in Cypress Hills
Cemetery. Alife is not important
except in the impact it has on
other lives, reads the inscription
on Robinsons tombstone. Me-
mentos left by fans at the grave
include a bat and baseballs, with
one ball bearing a handwritten
note thanking Robinson for be-
inganinspiration, strongandcou-
rageous. On a recent day, Ronnie
Carvey, Taneisha Beckford and
their 3-year-old son were among
those stopping at the grave to pay
respects, with Carvey explaining
to his child that Robinson was a
famous baseball player.
The cemetery entrance is 833
Jamaica Ave., Brooklyn, near
the Cypress Hills stop on the J
subway line, also reachable via
the Jackie Robinson Parkway.
Robinsons plot is in section 6
on the Queens side of the grave-
yard, on Jackie Robinson Way
near Cypress Road, across from
a large stone mausoleum near a
low black fence, tall evergreen
tree and hedge row. A map can
be found at nycin60.les.word-
press.com/2010/11/chcmap.

EBBETS FIELD AND
WASHINGTONPARK
Robinson retired after the 1956
season. Dodgers owner Walter
OMalley, still a much-hated
name in parts of New York City,
moved the team to Los Angeles
after the 1957 season. The park
was replaced by an apartment
complex at 1720 Bedford Ave., in
Crown Heights, where a stone in
a wall is inscribed with the words:
This is the former site of Ebbets
Field.
Ron Schweiger, Brooklyns
borough historian, grew up go-
ing to Dodger games at Ebbets
Field and met Robinson sever-
al times. As a Brooklyn public
school teacher, he used Rob-
insons story to teach his stu-
dents about civil rights, even
hosting Robinsons daughter
Sharon as a speaker at the
school. Recalling a recent visit
to the Ebbets Field site, Sch-
weiger said that if you go up
the stairs and into the court-
yard, youd be standing in right
eld. When you walk closer to
the entrance to the building
and look at the sign over to the
right of the doorway, theres
a sign: No radio playing. No
bike riding. No ball playing.
Long before Ebbets Field
existed, beginning in 1883,
Brooklyns baseball team
played in Washington Park,
which is better known as a
Revolutionary War site for the
Battle of Brooklyn. George
Washingtons troops were
defeated here in 1776 by the
British, who used as their
base an old Dutch farmhouse
now known as the Old Stone
House. After the ballpark was
built, the Old Stone House
served as a clubhouse for the
Brooklyn Dodgers. Washing-
ton Park is located at Fifth Av-
enue and Third Street in Park
Slope (nearest subway stop, F
to Fourth Avenue). Exhibits in
the Old Stone House describe
its connection to baseball and
the Revolutionary War.
Kim Maier, executive direc-
tor of the Old Stone House,
offers a couple of other fun
Dodger facts: The team was
called the Brooklyn Trolley
Dodgers because trolleys run-
ning along Third Avenue made
it tricky to get into the park.
And the man who built Ebbets
Field started out as a ticket-
taker at Washington Park, then
worked his way up to control
the team. His name was Char-
lie Ebbets.

Tiger Woods puts his head down after missing a putt on the sixth
hole during the third round of the Masters Saturday in Augusta,
Ga. Woods is four strokes off the lead.
T H E M A S T E R S
AUGUSTA, Ga.
Tiger Woods
made two signifi-
cant moves Satur-
day at the Masters
one to stay in the
tournament, the other to stay in the
hunt.
A day filled with high drama before
a shot was struck at Augusta Nation-
al, ended with Brandt Snedeker and
Angel Cabrera tied for the lead, and
Woods only four shots back. For a
few tense hours in
the morning, it was
not clear if Woods
was going to get a
chance to play.
Masters officials
discovered late Fri-
day evening that
Woods had taken
a bad drop in the second round and
should have added two shots to his
score.
Under normal circumstances, he
would have been disqualified for sign-
ing an incorrect card. Officials took
the blame for not alerting Woods to
a potential problem they found
nothing wrong at first glance before
he signed and kept him in the
tournament with two shots added to
his score. Woods was covered under
a 2-year-old rule that prevents DQs
when a violation is reported by televi-
sion viewers.
It certainly was a distraction ear-
ly, Woods said after three birdies on
his last seven holes for a 70. It hap-
pens and you move on. I was ready to
play come game time.
So was Snedeker.

Luke Guyer, 7, of Harrisburg casts his line into the water at Lake Irena in Hazle Township on Saturday the first day of trout fishing. Looking on is family friend Joe
Saladyga, left, of Tresckow and Lukes grandfather Andy Shisko, right, with fishing pole, of McAdoo.
Chilly start on opening day
W
aiting was the hardest part for
Tyler Christian.
The 13-year-old arrived
at Harveys Creek in Plymouth Town-
ship at 5 a.m. with his
family to claim a spot of
shoreline for the opening
day of trout. He had three
hours to pass until the 8
a.m. start time.
I just talked to my
family or sat in the car,
Christian said. It was
pretty hard.
But after 8 a.m., things
got a lot easier. Using
a Blue Fox spinner,
Christian landed three
trout right off the bat. All
of a sudden the long wait
didnt seem so bad.
I enjoy being out here
with my family, and I do
enjoy catching fish, he
said. I do get excited for
the opening day.
Anglers crowded the banks of area
lakes and streams for Saturdays trout
season opener. They were greeted with
chilly temperatures early in the morn-
ing that many felt kept the action slow
at first.
They were biting slow in the morn-
ing but it started to pick up around
10, said Swoyersville resident Marty
Burridge, who arrived at Moon Lake
at 7 a.m. Weve been coming to Moon
Lake on opening day for
12 years and were glad
they opened the park for
this. Its a great place for
kids to fish and when the
trout start hitting the ac-
tion can get pretty fast.
Just down from Bur-
ridge stood 10-year-old
Carter Golaszewski,
who had yet to get a
hit but still fished with
determination. Even
though Golaszewski
isnt old enough to have
to buy a fishing license,
he sported a homemade
license pinned to his cap.
My mom made it
for me, he said. I was
excited to go today, even
if it was a little cold this
morning. Maybe when the sun comes
out theyll start hitting better.

The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
Penguins limited the St. Johns
IceCaps to 18 shots on goal
to post a 3-0 victory and offi-
cially clinch
an American
Hockey League
playoff spot
Saturday night
before 6,287 at
Mile One Cen-
tre.
Its the 11
th
straight year
the Penguins
( 4 1 - 2 8 - 2 - 2 )
have secured
a berth in the
Calder Cup
playoffs.
Sat urday s
win was also
the sixth straight, and seventh
in the past 18 games, for Wilkes-
Barre/Scranton, decked out
in its red and alternate jerseys,
which pay homage to the 1936
Pittsburgh Hornets.
With the loss, the IceCaps
who ousted the Penguins in the
Eastern Conference semifinal
last season were officially
eliminated from this years play-
off dance. St. Johns sits No. 14
in the East at 31-35-2-4.
The boys worked hard for
this, said Penguins coach John
Hynes. They deserve this. Now
the real work begins.
Dominik Uher, hardly consid-
ered a scoring threat before Sat-
urdays game with one goal in 49
starts, paced the Penguins with
a pair of goals. Paul Thompson
netted the other, and Jeff Zat-
koff posted his fifth shutout on
the year.
We try to limit other teams
scoring chances, Hynes said.
But you have to give St. Johns
credit. They didnt have a ton of
chances, but they did get some
quality scoring opportunities.
But our goalie was the differ-
ence, he said of Zatkoff. And
we play a good, committed team
game.
Uher scored what turned out
to be the game-winner on only
the Penguins second shot in
the game, redirecting a Bobby
WBS Pens clinch 11th straight
trip to postseason with win
over St. Johns.

PENGUINS SUNDAY
My Hometown
Steve MacIntyre
Steve MacIntyres hometown of Brock,
Saskatchewan, could be confused with any
small country town in America. Its a place
surrounded by farms with a Main Street
where all the locals gather for morning cof-
fee. Its seen plenty of businesses come and
go while the farms continue to be passed on
from one generation to the next.
MacIntyre grew up on the family farm
where he and his father raised grain and
beef cattle. His childhood consisted of long
days working the farm and lessons that last
a lifetime. They are lessons that MacIntyre is
making sure to pass on to his kids.
But life in Brock wasnt always defined by
hard work. There was plenty of opportunities
for fun. Hockey and baseball were big when
MacIntyre was growing up, and during his
fathers generation the town was known for
the Brock Mud Fling, which is basically a mud
bog and hillclimb. But in Brock there was a
twist - the hillclimb apparently wasnt limited
to four-wheel-drive trucks. Somebody once
tried to climb the hill with a motor home
before the event got out of hand and closed
down.
What was life like growing up in a small
rural town in western Canada?
Actually I think it might be a thriving me-
tropolis now with maybe 150 people. Its kind
of like a bedroom community for Kindersly,
which is good and bad. It has changed. We
had a grain elevator that has since been torn
down, the Brock Burger at the Brock Hotel
was a big deal, but unfortunately they had to
close that down.
But Brock is known for the Brock Mud
Fling and Hillclimb, which took place in a big
mudpit south of town. It was before my time
but its funny to hear the stories about the
craziness that went on back in the day. One
guy supposedly tried to climb the hill with
his motor home, and I think someone got
run over and they had to shut it down. You
can still see the remains of the announcers
booth and the pit. It was a big deal back
then.
With so many farms around town, why
did they close the grain elevator?
There were three grain elevators, and
once Cargill took over the area, they had the
trains stop at the big grain terminals instead
of going to all the little towns. Its harder now
for smaller farmers to bring grain because
theyre driving twice as far.
I remember riding in the grain truck with
my dad - the truck was brown, white and
rust. Wed haul our grain to the elevator and
Id have a pop and watch everything going on
while we were there. It was a pretty fun time
when I was little.
Do you miss life on the farm?
Im trying to buy a bigger place so I can
raise the kids on the farm and get my own
cows. Farming is very time-consuming and
very costly. Sometimes the outcome isnt
what you want it to be, but its a lifestyle that
was passed down from my grandpa, to my
dad and to me. Hopefully I can pass it down
to my kids.
What can kids learn from growing up on
a farm?
Responsibility and respect. Some kids
nowadays grew up playing video games and
into technology, which is fine in a sense.
But as Phil from Duck Dynasty would say,
Theyre all a bunch of yuppie kids. They
need to know the basics of life - how things
are built, how food is grown and where it
comes from. They see it come from a grocery
store and thats what they understand, not
the process of raising a cow for meat.
Theres responsibility in having to go out
and feed and take care of livestock every day.
To me, you can tell a farm kid from a city kid
when you talk to them. A farm kid will look
you right in the eye, shake your hand and
is polite. Im not taking anything away from
other kids, but theres a difference.
You mentioned Brock is turning into
a bedroom community for larger towns.
Are there challenges that come with that
change?
Its good in the sense that its bringing
more people to the area, but at the same
time you have your problems like drugs and
other stuff that a small community is oblivi-
ous to but now its there. Its unfortunate.
But Brock is still a nice community and the
foundation is still there. You go down Main
Street on Monday morning and all the regu-
lars are having their coffee together before
they start the day.

More than goals make Thompson a complete player
Flash and grit
AIMEE DILGER FILE PHOTOS/THE TIMES LEADER
Paul Thompson has found his scoring touch for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins this season. He is also playing
the physical part of the game quite well, too.
Paul Thompsons 18 goals this season may be a career-high, but its not much
of a surprise. In fact, Thompsons goal-scoring prowess feels like old times for
the second-year pro. Before joining the Penguins as an undrafted free agent,
Thompson posted lofty goal totals at every level. In 2006-2007, he registered 45
goals in 44 games while playing in the Eastern Junior Hockey League, and went
on to score 47 goals in his final two seasons at the University of New Hampshire.

By TOMVENESKY | tvenesky@timesleader.com
Now hes doing the same thing in
his second AHL season, but thats not
all. Thompson has evolved into a rug-
ged winger who not only can put the
puck in the net, but provide a physical
element as well.
Im not known as a fighter, but
when Im playing gritty and getting in
guys faces, sometimes it comes with
the territory, he said. I dont really
go out looking for fights, but with
the way I need to play there are times
where you have to answer the bell.
Head coach John Hynes said
Thompsons physical play is an impor-
tant component to rounding out his
game. He can put up points, play in
all situations and has the toughness
to go along with it, Hynes said.
Still, dropping the gloves more
wasnt necessarily a goal that Thomp-
son set for himself at the start of the
season.
Putting the puck in the net more
often topped the list.
During his rookie season last year,
Thompson scored 10 goals in 67
games while he adjusted to the pro
game out of college.
Last year was more of a learning
curve for me, he said.
Despite missing all of February
with an injury, Thompson still man-
aged to eclipse that mark with 18
goals in only 54 games this season.
If it wasnt for the injury, chances are
Thompson wouldve topped the 20-
goal mark and maybe more by now.
You do wonder, he said. But Im
happy with the way things have been
going lately. I was playing pretty well
for a couple games before the injury
and Im starting to get the confidence
back again with goal scoring.
Hynes also wonders what Thomp-
sons numbers would be if he hadnt
missed a month of the season but
is happy with what hes seeing now.
Thompson registered goals in back-to-
back games last weekend, giving the
Penguins some valuable secondary
scoring behind the top line.
You can see he has the ability to
score. You dont lost that knack,
Hynes said. But a lot of times when
you elevate levels, its about having
the opportunity to play in situations
where you can find ways to score.
For Thompson, that means going
to the front of the net and shooting
more.
I could always finish plays and
score, but now I think Ive developed
into more of a complete player,
Thompson said. At this level, its
tough to be an elite player and score
goals without doing the other things
right. For me, that means going to
those dirty areas and focusing on that.
Once you get a few in, you get that
confidence back and you want to start
putting more pucks on the net.
That approach is what Hynes likes
to see. At one point last season, when
Thompson struggled, the Penguins
sent him down to Wheeling to get his
game in order. He responded with a
goal and an assist in his only game
with Wheeling before being called
back up, and now Hynes says Thomp-
son is a player who is very coachable.
He listens and hes willing to learn.
When you have those types of guys
you see steady improvement because
they have the ability to grow their
game and theyre willing to improve
in certain areas, Hynes said.
Thompson knows that rounding
out his game by following Hynes
advice will provide the best chance to
reach yet another level - the NHL.
Coach Hynes knows what it takes
to get guys to the NHL as a complete
player, Thompson said. Hes a guy
that I want to listen to.

Hudson, Gattis carry
Braves past Nationals
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON Tim Hud-
son pitched seven innings of
four-hit ball, Evan Gattis hom-
ered, and the Atlanta Braves
beat Stephen Strasburg and the
Washington Nationals for their
eighth straight victory.
Hudson (2-0) allowed one
run, walked none and struck
out three in improving his
lifetime record against Wash-
ington to 15-5. Not only did
the right-hander outpitch
Strasburg, but he also got two
singles off Washingtons hard-
throwing ace.
Giants 3, Cubs 2
CHICAGO Madison
Bumgarner allowed two runs
while pitching into the seventh
inning, Marco Scutaro had three
hits and the San Francisco Gi-
ants held off the Chicago Cubs.
Pinch-hitter Dioner Navarro
hit a two-out, two-run homer
off Bumgarner in the seventh
to pull the Cubs to 3-2. It was
Navarros second career pinch
home run in two days, each
hit from a different side of the
plate.
Cardinals 8, Brewers 0
ST. LOUIS Adam Wain-
wright threw a four-hitter and
drove in two runs with three
hits, two in a seven-run sixth
inning, and the St. Louis Car-
dinals shut out the Milwaukee
Brewers for the second straight
game with a victory.
Milwaukee ace Yovani
Gallardo (0-1) endured yet
another setback against his
nemesis, falling to 1-10 with
a 6.83 ERA against St. Louis
after getting charged with five
earned runs in 5 1-3 innings.
Marlins 2, Phillies 1
MIAMI Chris Coghlan hit
a game-ending single against
a draw-in infield with one out
in the ninth inning, giving the
Miami Marlins a victory over
the Philadelphia Phillies for
just their second win.
Marlins 20-year old phenom
Jose Fernandez pitched six
scoreless innings to outduel
Cole Hamels, and Miami (2-
9), playing without slugger
Giancarlo Stanton for the
second straight day because of
a bruised left shoulder, became
baseballs last team to win two
games this year.
Pirates 3, Reds 1
PITTSBURGH Jeff Locke
won for only the second time
in three major league seasons,
and the Pittsburgh Pirates beat
the Reds as Cincinnati starter
Johnny Cueto left in the fifth
inning with a strained right
triceps.
After striking out Pedro
Alvarez starting the fifth,
Cueto threw a first-pitch strike
to Travis Snider then began
shaking his right arm. A Reds
trainer visited Cueto on the
mound, briefly massaged the
pitchers upper arm, and both
then walked to the dugout.

WhO CAn IT bE nOW?
MOOSIC Whether in his native
country Australia or in college in Ari-
zona or professionally, Josh Spence
has always played in warm weather
climates.
So when he got to PNC Field two
weeks ago for the start of the Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre RailRiders season,
he was in 30-degree temperatures for
the first time.
It was a bit of a culture shock
thats for sure, said Spence, a left-
handed reliever for SWB. But Ive
always been taught that the most
important games are played in the
worst weather. Especially in the post-
season. So I might as well get used to
it now and get that feeling and try to
get better.
Being in the States since he was
18, the 25-year-old still has a strong
love for his hometown. The sport
of baseball isnt that popular in the
Commonwealth as most Australian
athletes pick up cricket, soccer, tennis
or even football. But its starting to
pick up popularity with the Winter
Leagues Australian Baseball League,
which just finished its third season.
It just so happened that when
Spence was younger he started play-
ing those other sports as well. But
when he picked up a bat for tee ball,
he fell in love with baseball and stuck
with it ever since.
When he came to America, he
attended Central Arizona College
and started his collegiate baseball
career. From there, he played for
Arizona State two years helping the
Sun Devils reach the College World
Series in the final year the event was
held at Rosenblatt Stadium. A strong
season also helped the left-hander
get drafted by San Diego. Hes piled
up 51 career Major League games
for the Padres totaling 40 innings in
2011 and 2012 before being claimed
by the Yankees this past offseason.
Its been success that warranted other
teams interest. He has a 3.15 career
ERA for San Diego during his time in
the Majors and in his Major League
debut against Atlanta, he sent all-stars
Jason Heyward, Chipper Jones and
Brian McCann down in order. With
the Padres he was in the bullpen with
stars like Heath Bell, Chad Qualls and
Mike Adams.
Although hes had success, he
hasnt forgotten where he came from.
And to remind himself of that, he
keeps a jar of vegemite, an Australian
spread, in his locker. But Spence his
teammates are too scared to try it.
I guess (I keep it because) its mo-
tivation that Ive come this far and to
keep working and keep giving it 100
percent and enjoy it, Spence said.
If youve seen Spence at PNC Field
during the first homestand youve
notice that he throws sidearm with a
motion that could be devastating to
lefty hitters. But he didnt throw that
way until he got drafted and became
a reliever. Not being a pitcher with
overpowering stuff, he wanted to try
to something different. So the lefty
from down under is still learning
about throwing from down under.
There was even a game during the
recent homestand when Spence was
pitching against Pawtucket he threw
sidearm on one pitch then overhand
on the next.
I think it was something I just
really hadnt showed but something
that Ive always done, he said. But
right now Im just trying to get outs
and Ill get them anyway I can.
I got into pro ball and was prone
to lefties so one inning I felt I had
a little more deception from down
there so I just stuck there. Its still a
learning curve for me still working
hard on staying with myself and mak-
ing a lot of pitches.
Hes been tabbed as a left-handed
specialist over the years with teams.
Its true Spence has had more success
against lefties holding them to a .158
batting average in his Major League
career. But hes also had success
against right-handed hitters too limit-
ing them to a .224 average.
I havent showed it so far this
year but Im confident I can get both
righties and lefties out, Spence
said. I can understand why Id be
pigeonholed as a lefty specialist, but
I have a strong passion for the game.
Im really enjoying my time with the
RailRiders, but its no secret that
the ultimate goal is to be wearing
pinstripes in Yankee Stadium and
Ill do whatever they ask me to do to
hopefully get there.

Our weekly look at the work of RailRid-
ers president Rob Crain, who has given us
back our baseball with a side order of
promotions and entertainment.
Have any ideas, or feedback on a recent
promotion, share it with us at tlsports@
timesleader.com.
BEST OF THE WEEK: Greg Legg Day
last Saturday (April 6), complete with
bobbleheads of the Red Barons hero, made
for a wonderful evening that drew 5,362 to
PNC Field. The postgame fireworks were
an added bonus on a full night of events.
MISSED OPPORTUNITY: Bobbleheads
are a staple of the baseball world, and a
giveaway cherished by fans of all ages. But
last Saturdays honoree was Greg LEGG.
Imagine the uniqueness if the little
statue given away had been a bobbleLEGG
Greg Leggs likeness with the head af-
fixed upon the body and the legs splayed
out as if hes making the throw to first to
complete the double play. Best part the
legs bobble instead of the head. A Bob-
bleLegg.
COMING UP: Saturday against the
Syracuse Chiefs, there will be a pre-game
band entertaining before the first pitch
and welcome mats will be given to the
first 2,500 fans. Welcome mats are a great
giveaway you can show your pride in the
local nine by putting it on your front porch,
and Yankee haters will likely clean their
shoes like never before with one in front of
their door.
We were going to choose Fridays fire-
works as the promotion to look forward to,
but were sure the Riders are looking into
a fire safety night to add to their calendar
after last weeks post-fireworks brush fires.
CRAIN GAME
Heres an in depth look at this weeks
matchups for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
RailRiders.
Buffalo Bisons
The RailRiders play the Triple-A affiliate
of the Toronto Blue Jays today to begin
and conclude a four-game road series.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre finished 11-5 against
Buffalo last season when the Bisons were
affiliated with the New York Mets.
Three games were lost in the series due
to weather. So todays doubleheader will
be the only games in the series.
Buffalos big player so far this season is
Moises Sierra, who made a name for him-
self after a strong showing at the World
Baseball Classic for Team Dominican. Hes
currently batting .409 for the Bisons, who
have a 3-3 record early in the season.
Rochester Red Wings
The RailRiders should feel right at home
when they play at Frontier Field in Roch-
ester Monday through Thursday to wrap
up the now five-game road trip. Thats
because Scranton/Wilkes-Barre played the
majority of its home games last season
in Rochester while PNC Field underwent
renovations.
Feeling at home may not be a good
thing for the Riders though because they
started off 1-5 at the renovated stadium
during a season-opening homestand.
Rochester, the affiliate of the Minnesota
Twins, and SWB played twice in Moosic last
week splitting the games; the third contest
was rained out and will be made up as part
of a doubleheader on Monday, June 17.
Rochesters key hitter is Oswaldo Arcia,
the No. 3 prospect in the organization
according to Baseball America. The out-
fielder is off to a torrid start hitting .444
with three homers and eight RBI and went
3-for-5 against the RailRiders last week in
two games at PNC Field. The teams top
starter is Kyle Gibson, the teams fifth-
ranked prospect according to the publica-
tion, but in two starts this season hes 0-1
with a 5.79 ERA. He could pitch one of the
games this week. Last year, SWB finished
10-6 against the Red Wings, who began
Saturday with a 2-6 record.
Syracuse Chiefs
When SWB returns home on Friday it
will host the affiliate of the Washington
Nationals. The Chiefs got off to a hot start
beginning the season with a 5-1 mark.
Against Syracuse last season, Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre posted an 11-5 mark, tied for
the best record against any International
League opponent.
Former SWB Yankee Ross Ohlendorf
leads the pitching staff with a 2-0 record
and a 1.64 earned run average. Offensively,
the Chiefs have been tearing the cover off
the ball scoring 50 runs in those six games
batting .332 as a team.
Second baseman Jeff Kobernus is bat-
ting a lusty .545 to start the season. The
team has other notables on the squad
in Micah Owings, a former major league
pitcher reinventing himself as a hitter and
hitting .421 with a homer and six RBI.
Former SWB Yankee and major league
veteran J.C. Romero, a left-handed reliever,
is also on the team.

Krasavage not done yet
The Pennsylvania wres-
tling season ended more
than a month ago with the
PIAA Championships.
The high school career
of Kyle Krasavage ended a
week ago when he finished
second at the National
High School Coaches As-
sociation Senior Tourna-
ment in Virginia Beach.
But the Wyoming Valley
West wrestler has still
found his way to the Spar-
tan wrestling room since
then to go to practice.
Wrestling never ends,
said Krasavage, who was
selected as The Times
Leader Wrestler of the
Year. Theres always room
for improvement. You have
to try to improve every
day.
Thats the work ethic
that helped Krasavage
achieve numerous awards
this past season. He took
fourth at the PIAA Cham-
pionships and was Class
3A Northeast Regional and
District 2 champion as he
entered the state tourna-
ment with an unbeaten
record. Those rewards
were preceded by nabbing
the Outstanding Wrestler
Award at the ever-so-tough
Hurricane Classic in De-
cember in Bethlehem.
With achievements
like that, his coach Drew
Feldman said it can have a
trickle-down effect on the
rest of his team, who will
now be trying to follow
Krasavages footsteps.
You preach so much
and for the kids to buy
into that system is reward-
ing, the Spartan coach
said. The kids are buying
into the system and they
see what his rewards are
and its great to coach a
kid like that.
One of the reasons
Krasavage is still heading
to practice after school is
that while his high school
career is over, he is beginning another
career in the fall. He earned a scholarship
to wrestle for Division I Hofstra. Getting
the scholarship occurred at the beginning
of the season. That was the start of what
was going to be a memorable season. Along
the way, he defeated several state qualifiers
from past years during the regular season
en route to a 41-2 record and breaking the
schools all-time wins record. He ended his
brilliant career with 134 wins, shattering
the previous mark of 123.
I definitely wanted to accomplish more
in high school, but Im definitely proud
of what I did accomplish in high school,
Krasavage added.
The career of Krasavage ended last week
at nationals with a runner-up finish, but
along the way he defeated several state
placewinners from other states before even-
tually falling to a state titlist from California
in the finals.
But he said it was a great experience.
It was fun. The competition was fun and
I wrestled a few state champs, Krasavage
said. Wrestling is wrestling. Just have to
go out there and do your best every match.
Now, hes going to try to keep improving
to reach the next level, an NCAA All-Amer-
ican medal.

Ross Piazza, a deputy water-
ways conservation officer with
the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat
Commission, estimated there
were almost 300 anglers at Moon
Lake by the time he left at 10
a.m. As the morning warmed up,
he said, the fish starting biting so
many people stayed at the lake.
Down the road at Harveys
Creek, where cars were parked
all along state Route 29, Piazza
said he checked several anglers
who caught their limit of five
trout in the morning.
Despite the heavy rains later
in the week, area streams were
in good shape for fishing on Sat-
urday. Waterways Conservation
Officer John Cummings report-
ed anglers at Kitchen and Pine
creeks were having quite a bit of
success.
At Pine Creek the bite was
really on with brook trout, and
they were catching them with
corn, minnows and paste bait,
Cummings said. The water
was perfect in the streams. I was
concerned the night before after
the rain made the creeks run
rough, but this morning they
were perfect with just a little bit
of color.
Brian Christian of Wapwallo-
pen spent the morning at Har-
veys Creek and was surprised at
how good the fishing was con-
sidering the recent rain.
I saw the river was high this
morning so I was worried about
the stream, but it s beauti-
ful. You can t beat it, he
said. They re hitting, but
not as good as past years. Still,
the first thing about today is the
camaraderie with family and
friends. That s what we
re here for.
At Lily Lake, most anglers
opted to fish from boats around
the launch and parking lot areas.
A cold wind reduced the crowd
by about half later in the morn-
ing and many anglers headed to
shore to have lunch at a stand
operated by the members of
Mount Zion Church.
Cummings and Piazza said
Saturday was pretty quiet in
regards to violations. The most
common problem, according to
Piazza, was anglers fishing from
boats without a life jacket on
Moon Lake.
According to new legislation,
anyone using a boat 16 feet or
under between Nov. 1 and April
30 must wear a life jacket.
We ve been giving warning
today as people start to become
aware of the change, Piazza
said. But after a while we ll is-
sue citations if the problem per-
sists.

at the 17:51 mark of the first pe-

Uher, a 20-year-old from the
Czech Republic playing his first
pro season, made it 2-0 9:08 into

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. Mike
Repole wasnt sure what to
make of a disappointing start
of the year for his standout
3-year-old, Overanalyze, after a
fifth-place finish at the Gotham
Stakes last month.
The owner decided to give
the colt a six-week break after-
ward, a move that paid off in
convincing fashion Saturday.
Ridden by Rafael Bejarano
for the first time, Overanalyze
stormed down the home stretch
to pull away and win the $1 mil-
lion Arkansas Derby mak-
ing a three-time winner out of
trainer Todd Pletcher.
The colt, who struggled so
mightily in his only other start
of the year, once again found
the form that made him a win-
ner in three of five races last
year as a 2-year-old. He won by
4 lengths and earned Pletcher
his first win in the 1 1/8-mile
Kentucky Derby prep since
winning back-to-back Arkansas
derbies in 2000 and 2001.
He also more than made up
for his difficult first start of the
year, a race in which he was
favored and among the leaders
on the final turn before fading.
I think he more than
redeemed himself, Repole
said. I was waiting for the
move, and the move came. It
just came six weeks later in the
Arkansas Derby.
Repole was counting on
Overanalyze to be a Kentucky
Derby contender this year, par-
ticularly after the colt earned
more than $350,000 last year,
and he wasnt sure what to
make of the colts first start in
three months on March 2 at the
Gotham.
He kind of sat down, jockey
John Velazquez told Repole.
It just looked like he needed a
race.
Overanalyze made a prophet
on Saturday out of Velazquez,
who ceded his position on the
colt to Bejarano due to injury.
The colt also confirmed for
Repole that is was indeed the
right decision to rest him for
six weeks after the Gotham.
He really took a lot of steps
forward since the Gotham race,
Repole said. Im not really sur-
prised that he won. I think Im
really shocked how easy he won
and by how much he won.
Trained by Pletcher, Overana-
lyze started in the No. 9 gate
in the 10-horse race and trailed
with a second group for much
of the race. He charged ahead
after the final turn, however
and easily pulled away from
runner-up Frac Daddy and
third-place finisher Carve.
Overanalyze paid $9.40,
$5.60 and $4.60. Frac Daddy
returned $16.80 and $11, and
Carve paid $8.60 to show.
Overanalyze earned 100 points
in the race for a spot in the Ken-
tucky Derby, while Frac Daddy
earned 40 and Carve 20.
Bejarano, who won the 2009
Arkansas Derby on Papa Clem,
said he even pulled up on the
final 1/16th of the race in order
to save stamina for Overanalyze.
Im sure hes going to be
ready for the Kentucky Derby,
Bejarano said.
Overanalyze had run only
once previously this year after
his stellar 2-year-old campaign,
his fifth-place finish at the
Gotham.
Javas War wins Blue Grass
LEXINGTON, Ky. Javas
War edged Palace Malice by
a neck Saturday to win the
$750,000 Blue Grass Stakes
at Keeneland and solidify his
credentials for the Kentucky
Derby.
Ridden by Julien Leparoux,
Javas War trailed the field
after starting from the fourth
position, then came on in the
backstretch to challenge Palace
Malice down the stretch and
pull ahead. With his first Grade
I stakes victory, Javas War
earned 100 more points in the
Road to the Kentucky Derby
standings after starting the day
with 22, placing him in the mix
for the 139th running on May 4
at Churchill Downs.
Javas War covered 1 1/8
mile in 1:50.27 and paid $11.20,
$5.60 and $4.

HOUSTON John Isner and
Nicolas Almagro, two of the big-
gest servers in tennis, aced their
way into the final of the U.S.
Mens Clay Court Champion-
ship.
Top-seeded Almagro of Spain,
the ATP Tour leader with 261
aces, needed only 58 minutes to
beat American wild-card Rhyne
Williams 6-2, 6-1.
Isner, second in tour aces with
251, recovered from a slow start
to top defending champion Juan
Monaco of Spain 1-6, 6-4, 6-4 in
the other semifinal to set up the
booming showdown Sunday.
Even though I got creamed in
that first set, I felt like I was play-
ing pretty good, Isner said. I
felt it was the best Id played all
week. My serve wasnt working
in the first set and he was mak-
ing a lot of returns. It got away
from me.
After that first set, I thought I
served smart, Isner said. I got
myself out of several jams the
rest of the match so it was very
encouraging.
The 6-foot-9 American finished
with nine aces against Monaco
and has 57 going into the finals,
three short of tournament record
set by Pete Sampras in 2002.
Isner used his power to good
advantage in the final game of
the match with serves clocked at
142, 144 and a fault that hit 147
mph at match point. Monaco re-
turned Isners second serve but
Isner sealed the match with a
backhand volley.
Almagro added seven aces to
his total against Williams.
I played better today than I
did the first two days, Almagro
said. I feel good today. I think
he was a little bit tired. Im hap-
py with my game. I tried to be
focused all the time and I moved
really good. Thats important for
me.
Isner lost to Monaco 6-2, 3-6,
6-3 in last years clay court and
he appeared headed for another
loss after Monaco broke his
serve three times in the opening
set.
Isner rallied from 15-40 in the
fifth game to deuce but double
faulted and hit a backhand into
the net at break point. Isner
went down at the first set point
in the seventh game.
Isner got more aggressive at
the start of the second set. He
broke Monaco in the fifth game
of the second set and in the first
game of the third set to fuel his
rally.
He played better than me at
the end, Monaco said. You can
play so good one set but thats
not enough. He gets confidence
when he starts serving well. He
played better than me, thats for
sure.
Almagro became the first top-
seeded player to reach the clay
court final since James Blake in
2008.
Almagro, ranked No. 12 in the
world, never allowed his 22-year-
old foe to get into the match. He
broke Williams in the second
game of the match that ended
with a crowd-pleasing volley ex-
change.

EL SEGUNDO, Calif.
Kobe Bryant had surgery Satur-
day on his torn Achilles tendon,
ending the season for the Los
Angeles Lakers star.
Teammates and coaches say
Bryant is determined to return
quickly from the biggest injury
of his career. General manager
Mitch Kupchak thinks its re-
alistic the 34-year-old guard
could be ready for next seasons
opener in the fall.
Bryant was hurt late in the
Lakers 118-116 win over Gold-
en State on Friday night. Lakers
trainer Gary Vitti says Bryants
tendon was completely torn.
Bryant stayed in the game to
make two free throws.
Kupchak says the Lakers
havent considered parting
ways with Bryant, who will
make nearly $30.5 million next
year.
Bryant took to Facebook
in the wee hours of Saturday
morning to vent about the in-
jury, writing the frustration
is unbearable but the setback
will not end his career.
The 34-year-old Bryant post-
ed about his rage a few hours
after being hurt: Why the hell
did this happen ?!? Makes no
damn sense. Now Im supposed
to come back from this and be
the same player Or better at
35?!? How in the world am I
supposed to do that??
He added: Maybe this is
how my book ends. Maybe Fa-
ther Time has defeated me
Then again maybe not!
One day, the beginning of a
new career journey will com-
mence. Today is NOTthat day.
After the game, Bryant ap-
peared to ght back tears while
he thought about the closing
days of the Lakers tumultuous
season. After a terrible start
and numerous missteps along
the way, Los Angeles (42-37)
is one game ahead of the Utah
Jazz, who hold the tiebreaker,
for the nal playoff spot in the
West with two games to play.
Kobe out for year

N H L
BUFFALO, N.Y. Jhonas
Enroth stopped 29 shots to help
the Buffalo Sabres remain on
the fringe of the playoff race
with a 1-0 victory over the Phila-
delphia Flyers on Saturday.
Christian Ehrhoff scored the
lone goal, 17 seconds into the
third period, when his fortu-
nate carom off the end boards
sneaked in behind Steve Mason.
Buffalo (17-19-6) snapped a two-
game skid and climbed into a tie
with New Jersey for 10th in the
Eastern Conference standings.
Enroth stopped 11 shots
in the nal period, includ-
ing getting a piece of Wayne
Simmonds shot from the slot
with 50 seconds remaining. For
Enroth, it was his third career
shutout and rst since, Nov. 18,
2011.
The Flyers (17-21-3) lost their
fourth straight, squandering
an opportunity to jump a point
ahead of the Sabres. Theyve
lost four straight in regulation
for the rst time since Feb.
26-March 6, 2011.
And its a stretch during
which theyve failed to score
two or more goals in regulation.
That matches Philadelphias
worst tretch since a four-game
span from Jan. 24-30, 2003, ac-
cording to STATS LLC.
The Flyers power play failed
to convert on three chances and
is 0 for 16 in six games.
Not even the return of center
Danny Briere could provide the
Flyers a boost. Briere, a former
Sabres captain, played his rst
game after missing 10 because
of a concussion.
Briere nearly scored with a
second left when his shot from
the left circle hit off the cross-
bar.
In a game between two
struggling teams, leave it to the
Sabres to open the scoring 17
seconds into the third period on
a shot that wasnt even directed
on goal.
Steve Ott won the face off
to left of the Flyers net, and
fed it back to Ehrhoff at the
point, where his shot sailed ve
feet wide of the net. The puck
caromed off the end boards and
went in off the back of Steve
Masons skate after the goalie
failed to hug the left post.
Enroth got the start in place
of Ryan Miller because the Sa-
bres host Tampa Bay on Sunday
in closing a stretch of playing
three games in four days.
Enroths best stop came with
just over 11 minutes left, when
he kicked out left pad to stop
Simon Gagne driving to the net
after being set up alone in front.
Enroth was briey shaken up on
the play, after teammate Mark
Pysyk rolled over top the goalie
while chasing Gagne from
behind.
Enroth was sharp in the open-
ing minute of the second period
when he got his glove up to get
a piece of Simon Gagnes shot
from the left circle after being
set up by Claude Giroux on a
2-on-1 break.
Mason, making his third ap-
pearance for Philadelphia since
being acquired in a trade with
Columbus this month, had to be
on top of his game at the other
end, too.
He got his shoulder up to stop
Cody Hodgsons rising shot on
a 2-on-1 rush midway through
the second period. Masons best
stop came a few minutes later
when he got his glove up to stop
Thomas Vaneks hard shot from
the right circle, and recovered in
time to stop Vaneks attempt to
cash in the rebound.
Rangers 1, Islanders 0
UNIONDALE, N.Y. Defen-
seman Dan Girardi scored 3:11
into overtime to give the New
York Rangers a stirring victory
over the New York Islanders in
a game that felt every bit like
a playoff matchup between the
area rivals.
Henrik Lundqvist and Island-
ers counterpart Evgeni Nabokov
staged a classic goalie duel
that seemed destined to go to a
shootout, but Girardi nished
off a rush by ipping a shot over
Nabokovs shoulder for just his
second goal of the season.
The Rangers are eighth in the
Eastern Conference playoff race,
one point behind the Islanders.
The Rangers lead ninth-place
Winnipeg by two points with
seven games remaining one
more than the Jets.
Lundqvist nished with 29
saves for his rst shutout of the
season. Nabokov stopped 19
shots.
Hurricanes 4, Bruins 2
RALEIGH, N.C. Jiri
Tlusty scored two goals and the
Carolina Hurricanes ended a
seven-game losing streak with a
victory over the Boston Bruins.
Joe Corvos power-play goal at
9:36 of the third period broke a
2-2 tie.
The win was Carolinas rst
in the month of April and the
Hurricanes also ended an eight-
game losing streak at home.
Jeff Skinner added a rst-
period power-play goal, the rst
time this season Boston had
allowed two power-play goals in
a game.
Carolina goalie Justin Peters
stopped 28 shots while Bostons
Tuukka Rask had 34 saves.
Tyler Seguin and Milan Lucic
scored for the Bruins.
Maple Leafs 5, Canadiens 1
TORONTO The Toronto
Maple Leafs scored four goals
on their rst ve shots, chased
Montreal goalie Carey Price
midway through the rst period
and beat the Canadiens.
Tyler Bozak, Leo Komarov,
Jay McClement, Dion Phaneuf
and Phil Kessel scored for
Toronto, which has earned at
least one point in 12 of its last
13 games (8-1-4). James Reimer
stopped 36 shots for the Leafs.
Price gave up three goals on
four shots and was pulled after
just 10 minutes, 25 seconds.
Peter Budaj didnt fare much
better, giving up a goal on the
rst shot he faced before nish-
ing with 22 saves.
Capitals 6, Lightning 5
WASHINGTON The Wash-
ington Capitals blew a four-goal
lead Saturday night before Mike
Green scored a power-play goal
at 2:59 of overtime, extending
the teams winning streak to
seven games with a win over the
Tampa Bay Lightning.
Alex Ovechkin scored his
27th goal to move ahead in the
NHLs goal-scoring race, and the
Capitals moved four points clear
atop the Southeast Division, al-
beit after cruising way too much
once they had a 5-1 lead early in
the second period.
Green scored after Vincent
Lecavalier was whistled for
slashing Marcus Johansson,
who was skating in on the
crease for a clear look at a po-
tential winning goal.
Ovechkin broke a tie with the
Lightnings Steven Stamkos to
take the solo spot atop the goal
leaderboard for the rst time
this season.
Penguins 3, Panthers 1
SUNRISE, Fla. Brenden
Morrow scored two goals to lift
the Pittsburgh Penguins to a vic-
tory over the Florida Panthers.
Kris Letang also scored for
Pittsburgh and Marc-Andre
Fleury made 25 saves. Morrow
also had an assist.
Pittsburgh center Evgeni
Malkin missed the game with
an upper body injury. The Pen-
guins were also without Sidney
Crosby, who is out indenitely
with a broken jaw.
The Penguins won for the
19th time in 21 games. The
Panthers have lost three of their
past four.
Scottie Upshall scored for
Florida and Jacob Markstrom
stopped 19 shots.

spectively, after resting Friday

Hes been building toward a
moment like this for the last
year, and he seized his chance
on a glorious afternoon with
a bogey-free round of 3-under
69. After opening with 12 pars,
he birdied both the par 5s and
stuffed his tee shot to 4 feet for
birdie on the par-3 16th to take
the lead. Cabrera joined him at
7-under 209 with a 12-foot birdie
putt on the final hole, capping off
a round in which he twice made
bogey on the par 5s.
They were two players going
in opposite directions this year.
Snedeker was seen as the hot-
test player in golf when in three
straight weeks he was runner-
up to Woods, runner-up to Phil
Mickelson and then won at
Pebble Beach. His momentum
was slowed by sore ribs that
kept him out of golf for a month,
though he appears to be hitting
his stride.
Ive spent 32 years of my life
getting ready for tomorrow,
Snedeker said. Im going to be
disappointed if I dont win. Pe-
riod. Im not here to get a good
finish. Im here to win.
Cabrera, whose two major
titles include a Masters win in
2009, has plunged to No. 269 in
the world.
Ive been working very hard
for this moment, Cabrera said
through an interpreter. And Ive
got to take the opportunity.
For Adam Scott, its a chance
at redemption.
He was runner-up at the Mas-
ters two years ago, though the
fresher wounds are from last
summer at Royal Lytham & St.
Annes, where the Australian
bogeyed his last four holes and
finished one shot behind in the
British Open. Scott rammed
home a 25-foot birdie putt on the
17th hole for a 69 and was one
shot behind.
Two more Aussies, Marc
Leishman (72) and Jason Day
(73) were another shot behind,
giving the blokes from Down
Under as good a chance as ever
to give their country some happy
memories from Augusta Nation-
al. Its the only major an Aus-
tralian has never won, a point
driven home with every mention
of Greg Norman losing a six-shot
lead on the last day in 1996.
Obviously, to win the Masters
would be incredible, Scott said.
It would be great for Australia.
Weve never looked better odds-
wise going into a Sunday, except
that one year in 1996. Its going
to be a hell of a round tomor-
row.
Day was in the lead for most of
the day, going 18 straight holes
without a bogey until he missed
short par putts on the last two
holes.
Matt Kuchar (69) was three
shots back, and Woods was right
behind.
Woods, the No. 1 player in the
world who already has won three
times this year, was the heavy
favorite going into the Masters
to capture a green jacket for the
first time since 2005 and end his
five-year drought in the majors.

FORT WORTH, Texas The
day began with a surprise and
ended with an outcome that
wasnt the least bit shocking.
Just hours after 19-year-old
Alex Bowman won the pole,
Sprint Cup veteran Kyle Busch
won the OReilly Auto Parts 300
on Friday at Texas Motor Speed-
way, prevailing in a Nationwide
event at this track for a record
sixth time and fending off Brad
Keselowski in the process.
Kyle is really strong, Kesel-
owski said.
Buschs latest win in a Nation-
wide Series race his fourth
this year came on a night
when there were eight cautions.
Spinouts, collisions and debris
on the track combined to kill any
momentum for the drivers who
seized the lead.
Following the second-to-
last restart, on Lap 150, Busch
surged past Keselowski and wid-
ened his advantage to 2.272 sec-
onds by the time he claimed the
checkered flag.
The true loser of the day may
have been Sam Hornish Jr., the
Nationwide Series points leader
who was in contention through-
out the race, but was forced to
retreat to the garage after his No.
12 Ford collided with Jeremy
Clements Chevrolet on Lap 141.
For Hornish, who finished
34th, it had to be a crushing
blow.
His car was running well and
he had managed to conserve his
tires.
Its just unfortunate that we
put ourselves in that position,
he said.
Hornishs disappointment
may have been shared by Bow-
man, who finished 14th after be-
ginning the race out front.
Despite battling the flu and re-
ceiving intravenous fluids before
the race, Bowman won the pole
for the first time in his career.
He did so by eclipsing Sprint
Cup stalwart Busch by 37-thou-
sandths of a second in qualifying
Friday afternoon.
For Bowman, who has im-
pressed during his rookie sea-
son, it was the latest feat that
signaled to the rest of NASCAR
that he is a star in the making.
Entering Friday, he was in 11th
place in the Nationwide Series

O U T D O O R S
A reunion of
two legends
of fly fishing
I
f you do something long enough,
youre going to be good.
Do it for a lifetime, youll be con-
sidered a legend.
Two legends in the fly fishing world
came together on Tuesday at the
monthly meeting of the Stanley Cooper
Sr. Chapter of Trout Unlimited.
Legendary fly tyer Stanley Cooper
Jr., who resides in Hanover and is a
chapter member, and world-renowned
fly fisherman Joe Humphreys, who was
the featured speaker.
Cooper, 88, has tied flies for a living
for 67 years and to this day his love of
the craft is evident.
Every morning I cant wait to go
upstairs and go to work, he said.
Humphreys, 84, has taught fly fishing
for over 40 years, including 19 years at
Penn State. Hes authored two books,
numerous articles, hosted a fly fishing
series on ESPN.
But Tuesdays presentation at the
SCTU meeting in Kingston was differ-
ent for Humphreys. His wife Gloria,
who traveled with him from their State
College home, knew it.
He doesnt speak at many TU
chapters anymore, she said. But this
chapter is special.
Why?
Because it brings Humphreys full
circle with his fellow fly fishing icon -
Cooper.
It all began more than 70 years ago
when a friendship developed between
Coopers father, Stan Sr., and George
Harvey - a fly fishing legend who cre-
ated and taught the famed fly fishing
course at Penn State in 1942. Through
the course, Humphreys befriended Har-
vey and Cooper Sr. Soon after, Cooper
Jr. and Humphreys became friends and,
later, Mike Romanowski, who was one
of Humphreys students at Penn State,
and went on to create the SCTU chapter
in 1987.
So, when Humphreys comes back to
the area to address the chapter, its not
just another speaking gig.
Its a reunion.
Ive come here every year since 1989
and Ive made a lot of friends, Hum-
phreys said. I know the people here
and I enjoy the comraderie.
And they know him as well.
After Humphreys wrapped up his
presentation, just about everyone in
attendance waited in line for him to sign
a book or video. They shared stories,
asked questions and just appreciated
every second they spent with a legend.
And the legend appreciated it as well.
Humphreys doesnt travel the world
like he used to and hes cut back on the
speaking engagements.
But when the SCTU chapter calls,
Humphreys responds.
I come here because I want to come
here. Its fun, he said.
Humphreys opened the meeting with
an impromptu casting demonstration
in the parking lot outside. With ease, he
cast his fly line with pinpoint accuracy -
even using his rod as a bow to shoot the
line to a precise location (the bow cast
is actually useful in tight quarters).
Im not giving you stuff to use just on
the first day (of trout season), Hum-
phreys said. Im giving you stuff that
you can use for the rest of your life.
After he signed his last autograph of
the night and packed up, Humphreys
reflected on how things went.
Maybe theres something I did here
this evening that someone will latch
onto, he said.
There was plenty, but just being in
the presence of two legends of the fly
fishing world tops the list.
That fact wasnt lost on Cooper and
Humphreys, who made each other a
promise before bidding farewell.
Stay healthy and well. Weve got to
keep on doing this, Cooper told his
longtime friend as they embraced.
Humphreys assured Cooper that he
will be back, possibly for the chapter
banquet in September.
After all, they both have a lot more
work to do.

Sr. Chapter of Trout
Unlimited will conduct
a cleanup and sign
posting along the fly

Penn State student uses a non-invasive technique to obtain
DNA samples from elusive river otters in the area
W h AT D O T h E Y E AT ?
While analyzing river otter scat for DNA, For-
man has formed a pretty good idea of what
the aquatic furbearers eat. Most of the scat
samples contained large fish scales from spe-
cies such as carp, he said, along with smaller
scales from chubs and minnows. During warm
periods, the scat contained evidence of cray-
fish. Forman said that in lakes he found plenty
of evidence of otters consuming freshwater
mussels based on the accumulation of shells
under the water. I believe that otters are
eating mussels because a raccoon wouldnt be
able to dive underwater and find them, For-
man said.
TOM VENESKY/THE TIMES LEADER
Nick Forman inspects an otter slide along Nescopeck Creek. Forman said where a slide is found there is often a latrine nearby.
Nick Forman wants to get to know the
river otters in Northeastern Pennsylvania.
Every single one of them.
Forman, who is working toward his
Masters degree in Wildlife and Fisheries
Sciences at Penn State University, has
spent the winter searching area streams
and lakes for otter sign - namely latrines.
Latrines are areas along the water where
otters deposit their scat. Forman said
samples taken from the scat contain DNA
which can be extracted to identify indi-
vidual otters. The results can yield valuable
information regarding population densities
and abundance.
Extracting DNA samples from otter scat
is part of a process called non-invasive
genetic sampling. With a reclusive animal
such as an otter, the process is one of the
only sure ways to obtain population infor-
mation.
When youre dealing with animals that
are hard to spot or capture and tag or take
blood samples, the non-invasive process al-
lows you to monitor those animals without
interfering with their daily routines, For-
man said. Instead of trying to capture the
animal and get DNA from a blood sample,
you can pick it up through scat, similar to
forensics.
From January to early April, Forman
searched for otter latrines in Luzerne,
Wayne, Pike, Monroe, Carbon, Lackawanna
and Susquehanna counties. He found otter
signs in every county and collected 635
samples from approximately 130 latrines.
Each site is revisited three times to create
a capture history and population model.
For the next three months Forman will
be in the lab extracting DNA from the
samples. While its too early for results,
Forman was surprised by the number of
samples and variety of sites that he found
in the region.
I found sign in places where you
wouldnt expect to find an otter, he said.
Top areas for latrine sites were places
where the bank wasnt eroded away and
where white pines were present along the
water. Forman surmised that otters are
attracted to the white pines, and other co-
niferous cover for that matter, because the
ground is sheltered from snow during the
winter and they act as a landmark, appeal-
ing to the otters sense of smell.
To get a head start on the field work,
Forman spoke to trappers, officials with
the Pennsylvania Game Commission and
private landowners to obtain leads on pos-
sible otter locations. He limited the field
work to the winter months because the
scat wouldnt degrade quickly in the cold
weather and otter populations are rela-
tively stable, meaning there are no births
occurring and little dispersal.
In Luzerne County, Forman found plenty
of otter sign along the Nescopeck Creek
and the Big and Little Wapwallopen creeks.
The research, which Forman said is a
collaboration between Penn State Universi-
ty, assistant professor Dr. David Walter and
the PGC, will last for two-and-a-half years.
Game Commission biologist Tom
Hardisky said Formans findings will be
incorporated into the otter management
plan and the non-invasive genetic sampling
technique is being watched very closely as
a possibility to be used for other wildlife
research.
Finding a method to estimate densities
without trapping otters has been a holdup
for a long time, Hardisky said. The prob-
lem is you have to safely capture them and
then re-capture them to collect any data.
Using radio collars is very expensive and
time-consuming as well.
River otters in Pennsylvania are cur-
rently protected, but Hardisky said there is
enough evidence from previous studies in
the state to justify an otter trapping season
on a limited basis. He said the manage-
ment plan should be completed shortly and
its possible that a proposal for a limited
otter trapping season could be presented to
the PGC board for the 2014-15 hunting and
trapping season.
In the meantime, Forman will return
to the area next winter to collect more
DNA samples and get an idea of just how
many individual otters are present on the
northeast.

SPRING
WEATHER
HAS finally
arrived.
And with
it everyones
favorite feature
in The Times
Leader Cycling Scene.
(Well, at least thats what my
mother thinks.)
I had my first column of the
year just about written, but a
trip to the bike shop led me to a
new topic.
Rich Adams at Around Town
Bicycles told me of a recent
experience he had while riding
in Kingston.
Adams was a little miffed
after being nearly hit by a driver
who didnt seem to notice he
was on the road. He was even
more exasperated because he
was riding on a side road specifi-
cally to avoid the heavy traffic
on Pierce Street.
Let people know that (cy-
clists) are out on the roads, he
suggested. I would start every
year with that.
So here goes.
If you are driving an auto-
mobile, remember it is the law
in Pennsylvania that you give
cyclists at least a three-foot buf-
fer when you pass them.
Even more important, remem-
ber that contrary to what the
idiot in the Hummer that told
me to get on the sidewalk last
week thinks bicycles belong on
the road.
In case you dont believe me
here is what the Pennsylvania
vehicle code says:
Every person riding a
pedalcycle upon a roadway shall
be granted all of the rights and
shall be subject to all of the du-
ties applicable to the driver of a
vehicle by this title.
Translated into English,
cyclists have a right to be on
the road. We are also expected
to obey all the traffic rules that
drivers of motorized vehicles
have to obey something most
serious riders do.
Just a little consideration of
the other people on the road
and we should all be able to get
along fine.
Tour de Scranton
If youre looking to get your
year off on a good start, you
may want to consider heading
to Scranton on April 28 for the
Tour de Scranton.
The ride features five differ-
ent options, leaving from vari-
ous points around Scranton and
ranging from a four-mile closed
course to a 65-mile loop with
3,100 feet of climbing.
It benefits the Erin Jessica
Moreken Drug and Alcohol
Treatment Fund.
Moreken was a graduate
of Scranton High School and
student at Temple university
who died of a drug overdose at
the age of 20. Her parents set up
a fund in her name to aid young
people of the region battling ad-
diction in receiving treatment.
For more information, go to
www.tourdescranton.com.
An early start
It may only be April, but
a couple of local cyclist are
already busy racing.
Tunkhannocks David Novak,
who races for Lindsey Wilson
College, finished third in his
schools road race in February.
He also has a 42nd-place and a
27th-place finish in criteriums at
the Midwest Classic in India-
napolis last month.
Luke Lukas, of Courtdale,
had a trio of top 15 finishes last
month. He finished 13th in the
road race and 13th in the crite-
rium at the Philly Phlyer on St.
Patricks Day weekend and 14th
in the criterium at the South Jer-
sey Spring Series on March 24.

PaMeLa YI P
last-minute
tax moves
to make
OK, PROCRAsTi-
nATORs: You now
have just days before
your federal income
tax return is due.
Time to get seri-
ous.
Here are tax-sav-
ing moves you still can make and steps
to take so you dont get in trouble with
the iRs:
Fund a traditional IRA: If you con-
tribute between now and April 15, you
might be able to get a full or partial
deduction.
if youre under age 50, you may
contribute up to $5,000 to a traditional
or Roth iRA. Those 50 and older may
contribute up to $6,000.
While you can open a Roth iRA, you
wont be able to deduct your contribu-
tion. You reap the benets of a Roth
when you withdraw the money tax-free
at retirement.
Contribute to a health savings
account: You have through April 15 to
make deductible contributions of up to
$3,100 for individuals and $6,250 per
family. But the HsA has to be linked
to an approved high-deductible health
insurance plan.
Teachers, claim your fair share:
The scal cliff deal extended for 2012
and 2013 the educator expense deduc-
tion of $250 for out-of-pocket money
spent on classroom supplies, materi-
als, books and software.
Dont overlook benefts for the
self-employed: if youre self-employed,
you may deduct the full amount of
health insurance premiums for you,
your spouse and your dependents.
Deduct state and local sales taxes:
Taxpayers have the option of deduct-
ing their state and local sales taxes in-
stead of state and local income taxes.
To claim this tax break, you must
itemize deductions. if you didnt save
all your receipts, you can still claim
the deduction by using the general
sales tax tables provided by the iRs
in the instructions for schedule A
(Form 1040).
Dont infate the value of chari-
table donations: The iRs expects
people donating items to qualied
charitable organizations to use fair
market value in determining what
each item is worth, said CCH, which
publishes tax information for tax
professionals.
For noncash donations of more than
$500, you must get a written descrip-
tion of the donated item. noncash
donations of more than $5,000 must
be appraised.
Additionally, cash donations of
any amount require proof, such as a
canceled check, credit card statement
or receipt from the charity, CCH
experts said. Contributions of $250
or more also require a letter from the
organization specifying the name of
the donor, the amount given and the
date received.
File for an extension, if you need
the extra time: its best to get all the
required documents and do things cor-
rectly than to risk ling a return with
mistakes.
Filing an extension by using iRs
Form 4868 will give you until Oct. 15
to submit the return. Remember, an
extension of time to le is not an ex-
tension of time to pay, so you still have
to pay taxes owed by April 15.
Verify information on your return:
Make sure your math is correct and
that you have entered the correct data
and social security numbers. Tax
ling software may catch and prevent
many errors, but even the best tax
software wont help you if you enter
bad data.

school is out in only a few weeks,
so the time is now for those consider-
ing a summer job.
everyone has a different reason to
get a summer job. He or she might
want spending money or may want
to stash away some cash for the next
school year. The applicant might be
looking for an experience to build a
skillset for the future. The summer
job is a big step toward transitioning
to adulthood. if any of these reasons
resonate, then the student needs to
get ready as many employers start
recruiting well in advance of the sum-
mer.
First of all, he or she will have to
decide on the type of summer job
they want. Most summer jobs pro-
vide transferable
skills that can
come in handy
down the line. Re-
tail positions offer
a great opportu-
nity to learn uni-
versally needed
sales techniques,
if the applicant is
sociable and able to interact with the
public in a team setting.
Food-service jobs provide regular
customer interaction. These jobs
servers, hosts and busboys are of-
ten better paid than hourly workers
thanks to tips. Babysitting, which
requires responsibility and patience,
could be another good experience.
An internship in social media, mar-
keting or nance might provide valu-
able business experience but often
pays far less, if at all.
There are many other options as
well. Whether youd like to be a golf
caddy or lifeguard at a country club,
workingat a sports stadiumor amuse-
ment park, working outdoors on a
farm or nursery or mowing lawns, or
joining a hotel as a front desk clerk or
housekeeper, choose quickly because
hiring has already begun.
Finding the best summer job re-
quires action. Here are a few sugges-
tions to get the ball rolling before its
too late:
1. Look beyond the usual websites:
dont just look at a schools career
site or a government job bank. There
are many sites with job lists.

eW YORK Cutting lines at airports used to be only for the rich, famous or very
frequent iers. But then airlines started granting fast-track access to anybody with
the right credit card or who was willing to shell out a few extra dollars.
Now, with the masses clogging up special security and boarding lanes, true VIPs are
saying: get me away from this chaos. And the airlines are listening.

Just as theyve made rst class
more enjoyable with new seats,
tastier meals and bigger TVs, air-
lines are focusing on easing the
misery of airports for their highest-
paying customers and giving them
a truly elite experience.
At a growing number of airports,
special agents will meet these ce-
lebrities, high-powered executives
and wealthy vacationers at the curb
and will privately escort them from
check-in to security to boarding.
American Airlines built a private
check-in lobby in Los Angeles for
VIPs who are greeted by name,
given preprinted boarding passes
and then whisked by elevator to the
front of the security line.
Once past security, the VIPs
arent left to fend for themselves
in crowded terminals. instead,
deltas new sky Club in new York
includes a hidden lounge-within-a-
lounge with sweeping views of the
Manhattan skyline. And in Atlanta,
Delta will drive some VIPs from
one plane to another in a Porsche.
There is no need to ever enter the
terminal.
The special treatment continues
at boarding.
Most passengers jockey to get
on the plane rst to nd a spot for
their carry-on luggage. But celebri-
ties like to be the last in their seats
to avoid passengers asking for au-
tographs as they trek through rst
class on the way to rear of the plane.
Airlines make sure that last-second
boarding is as smooth as possible.
We even do things like reserve
overhead bin space for them,

sees West Coast sales for delta Air

John Stevenson, of Harveys Lake, will
celebrate 35 years of service at Bedwick

is a senior pressman.
Stephen Cheskiewicz, Keystone Col-
lege Assistant Professor of Information
Technology, has received international
academic blind peer review accep-
tance to present his dissertation topic
Megabit Faculty in a Gigabit World

two European events are The Inaugural
European Conference on Education to
be held in Brighton, United Kingdom
in July 2013 and the 10th International
Conference on Technology, Knowledge,
and Society, to be held in Madrid, Spain
in February. Cheskiewicz is currently a
doctoral student at Wilkes University
in the Educational Leadership program
and expects to receive his doctoral
degree this summer.
2. Network: Referrals and word
of mouth are a great way to get
a summer job. Many small busi-
nesses prefer to hire from refer-
rals. Applicants should tell others
they are looking for a job. Life is
about who you know, so appli-
cants should start with parents,
parents friends, teachers, coun-
selors and coaches, and friends
and their parents. Be professional
and show enthusiasm and see if
they know anyone hiring.
3. Stand Out: Six seconds. Ac-
cording to a 2012 study, thats
how much time recruiters usu-
ally look at a resume. A stellar
academic record and long list of
accomplishments must all t in
those six seconds, so be sure to
format a resume or online prole
carefully. Find ways to stand out
and show off personality and in-
uence.
4. Clean up an online persona:
An online presence speaks vol-
umes to a potential employer.
Google a name and see what
comes up. Increase security set-
tings on Facebook and Twitter
proles. Applicants should up-
date a professional prole on
LinkedIn if seeking a white-collar
career, or create a work prole
on Shiftgig.com if seeking shift
work.
Summer can be an invaluable
rst work experience. Get a job
that pays, but also learn a mar-
ketable skill. Get accustomed to
a team environment. Improve
ability to communicate with cus-
tomers. The summer experience
is a perfect way to demonstrate
an understanding of the value of
a hard-earned dollar, show ability
to work as a team player, practice
customer service and dealing
with conict resolution, and be
responsible. These are all impor-
tant experiences that employers
look for when hiring.

door on some planes. That means
coach passengers will no longer
traipse through rst class on its trans-
continental ights.
In many ways, airlines are adding
these extreme VIP services to x a
problem they have created for them-
selves. Frequent iers nd dedicated
security lines packed as airlines try
to squeeze out every dollar from pas-
sengers. Boarding has become a free-
for-all as passengers ght for overhead
bin space, a situation created when the
airlines started charging $25 extra to
check suitcases.
There is a lot of money on the line.
At big airlines like American, 70 per-
cent of the revenue comes from 20 per-
cent of its customers.
Aone-way transcontinental business
class seat purchased at the last minute
can cost more than $2,500. By con-
trast, a non-refundable ticket in coach
booked at least 21 days in advance
might cost $159.
L.A.-New York is the pearl of do-
mestic ying, says airline analyst Bob
Harrell. Airlines are ghting tooth
and nail to get more than their share
of passengers, particularly in the front
of the plane.
Americans VIP check-in was origi-
nally designed to shield celebrities
from Los Angeles paparazzi. But
there was another benet: iers found
themselves avoiding the hassle of the
airport. The concept has since been
expanded to Miami and is coming this
year to Chicago, Dallas and New York.
But its not just for celebrities. Any-
body can pay for the service and a
chance to feel like a star at least for
a few hours.
Americans program called Five
Star Service costs between$125 and
$275 for the rst passenger, depending
on the airport. Each additional adult
is $75; children are $50 extra. Deltas
VIP Select, only available through the
airlines corporate sales department or
travel agents in the know, costs $125
for the rst person, $75 for the second
and $125 for each additional person,
regardless of age. These fees are in ad-
dition to the price of a ticket.
But that doesnt mean the masses
take advantage of such services; many
travelers balk at paying $25 to check a
suitcase.
United Airlines has a program but
limits it to VIPs. Spokesman Rahsaan
Johnson refused to detail it, saying the
individuals who enjoy the service we
are providing understand what it is.
American and Delta also offer as-
sistance on arrival, but the same fees
have to be paid again. Agents assist
with baggage and at some airports
help passengers cut lines at immi-
gration.
Its as close as a passenger can come
to a private jet, without shelling out
$30,000.
Its just nice to have somebody there
to almost hold your hand through the
process, says Stacy Small, president
of Elite Travel International, who often
books such assistance for her clients.
Los Angeles Times
WESTFIELD, Mass. The enve-
lope factory where Lisa Weber works is
hot and noisy. A fan she brought from
home helps her keep cool as she ma-
neuvers around whirring equipment
to make her quota: 750 envelopes an
hour, up from 500 a few years ago.
Theres no resting: Between the vid-
eo cameras and the constant threat of
layoffs, Weber knows she must always
be on her toes.
The drudgery of work at National
Envelope Co. used to be relieved by
small perks an annual picnic, free
hams and turkeys over the holidays
but those have long since been elimi-
nated.
Its harder for me to want to get up
and go to work than it used to be, said
Weber, 47, who started at the factory
at 19. Its not something I would wish
on anybody. Im worn out. I get home
and I can barely stand up.
The relentless drive for efciency
at U.S. companies has created a new
harshness in the workplace. In their
zeal to make sure that not a minute
of time is wasted, companies are im-
posing rigorous performance quotas,
forcing many people to put in extra
hours, paid or not. Video cameras and
software keep tabs on worker perfor-
mance, tracking their computer key-
strokes and the time spent on each
customer service call.
Employers once wanted long-term
relationships with their workers. At
many companies, thats no longer the
case. Businesses are asking employees
to work harder without providing the
kinds of rewards, nancial and psy-
chological, that were once routine.
Employers gure that if some people
quit, there are plenty of others looking
for jobs.
Wages are stagnant, jobs are less
secure, work is more intense its a
much tougher world, said Paul Os-
terman, co-director of the MIT Sloan
Institute for Work and Employment
Research. Employers have become
much more aggressive about restruc-
turing work in ways that push for high-
er levels of productivity.
Work is seeping into off-hours, as
bosses pepper employees with email
messages at night and on weekends.
They monitor employees Facebook
pages and Twitter feeds for comments
that conict with the corporate mes-
sage. The growing demands at the
workplace mean people have less time
to spend with their families or to help
out with youth sports or other volun-
teer activities.
Matt Taibi of Providence, R.I., rou-
tinely works 12-hour days as a driver
for UPS. The company would rather
pay him and other drivers overtime
instead of hiring more workers.
Taibi has no complaints about his
pay. He makes $32.35 an hour, plus
benets, and has job security as a
Teamster. But he wonders how much
longer he can keep up the breakneck
pace.
Theres more and more push to-
wards doing more with less workers,
said Taibi, 35. There are more stops,
more packages, more pickups. Whats
happening is that were stretched to
our limits and beyond.
Changes such as these began de-
cades ago and accelerated during the
Great Recession, when high unem-
ployment enabled companies to offer
less and demand more. Although the
economy is improving, companies are
still squeezing labor costs to contend
with global competition and boost
prots, aided by an array of technolo-
gies and management strategies.
There are exceptions, especially in
knowledge-based industries where
talent is scarce. In Californias Silicon
Valley, technology companies try to
retain software engineers with an ever-
increasing array of benets.
But these jobs go largely to engi-
neers educated at elite universities.
Those who dont have a college educa-
tion or specialized skills face a work-
ing world that is far less stable and
rewarding.
Santos Castaneda saw his job un-
loading trucks in the warehouses of
the Inland Empire go from a full-time
position to a temporary one, in which
he never knewfromweek to week how
often hed be called in or how much
hed earn.
They say, If you dont want to
work, you can leave, but there are hun-
dreds of people waiting for a job, he
said.
This points to the emergence of a
two-tiered workforce in which fewer
people can expect the type of employ-
ment relationship that Americans as-
pired to in the past.
If youre a highly skilled employee
with highly marketable talents, theyre
going to pay dearly for you. But if
youre a relatively fungible person,
with nothing that separates you from
anybody else, the risks and costs have
been shifted to you at a dramatic rate,
said Rita Gunther McGrath, a manage-
ment professor at Columbia Univer-
sitys business school.
As employers push efciency,
the daily grind wears down workers.

charge of the glue used to seal envelopes. National Envelope is one of the few remaining makers of envelopes in
America. With more use of email for billing, there is less of a demand for envelopes.
Lisa Weber, Westeld, Mass., has been with the National Envelope Company

operating two machines to three, which she says is too much for her.

SMALL CHANGE
Investors normally think of big companies when they imagine
dividend-paying stocks. Exxon Mobil, Apple and IBM can all
easily share some of their billions of dollars in quarterly
revenue with shareholders after all. But smaller companies are
increasingly paying
dividends as well. Last
quarter, 46 percent of
companies that were too
small to be included in the
Standard & Poors 500 index
paid a dividend, according to
S&P Dow Jones Indices.
Thats up from 42 percent a
year earlier. To be sure, big
companies are still more
likely to be dividend payers.
Some 81 percent of S&P
500 companies pay a
dividend.
FOREIGN DIFFERENCE
Buy a foreign stock mutual fund,
and youre obviously investing in
a different market than the U.S.
But youre also investing in a
different type of market. Thats
because financial companies
make up 24 percent of stock
markets outside the U.S., more
than any other industry, according
to S&P Dow Jones indices. In the
U.S., financials make up only 16
percent of the market and are
smaller than the technology
industry. That means index-fund
investors foreign holdings are
much more reliant on financial
stocks than their U.S. holdings.

BIG RETURNS
Its a small world after all. The biggest returns for stock markets
around the world came from the smallest stocks last quarter.
U.S. stock mutual funds that focus on small caps re-
turned an average of 12.2 percent during the quar-
ter, compared with 9.8 percent for large-cap
funds, according to Lipper. Among for-
eign stock mutual funds, those that
focus on small- and mid-cap
stocks returned 6.8 percent
versus 3.4 percent for large-
cap options. The bigger re-
turns for smaller compa-
nies come with bigger
risks: Smaller compa-
nies tend to have less
access to financing and
less diverse customer
bases than giants like
Coca-Cola or Nestle. Source: S&P Dow Jones indices *figures may not add to 100 percent due to rounding Source: S&P Dow Jones Indices

Title: Manager of the Frank Value
Fund
What he suggests: M&A activity
creates a potential opportunity for
investors.
Answers edited for content and
clarity.
Brian Frank
This year is shaping up to
be a big one for mergers and
acquisitions. Among the key deals
was a $23 billion acquisition of
ketchup maker H.J. Heinz by a
group including Warren Buffetts
Berkshire Hathaway. A week
before that Feb. 14 announcement,
Dell Inc. sold itself to founder
Michael Dell and a group led by
investment firm Silver Lake. The
deal valued the struggling personal
computer maker at $24 billion.
Brian Frank, manager of the 3
star-rated Frank Value mutual fund,
expects the pace of deal-making to
continue accelerating. The funds
portfolio includes companies that
might be acquired, as well as
potential acquirers.
Why are you expecting the
recent increase in M&A activity
to continue?
Companies have lots of cash
reserves. But interest rates are
near historic lows, and that cash
isnt earning anything. The problem
is that the economy isnt growing
rapidly, so companies arent yet
comfortable using their cash to hire
or expand their businesses. So
what do you do with all this cash?
You buy a business with it.
What do you see as the tipping
point that helped fuel the latest
round of M&A activity?
The Dell deal. That kind of rang
the bell and signaled that large-cap
technology companies are very
stable businesses, with consistent
cash flows and great balance
sheets.
Berkshire Hathaway is the
funds largest recent holding.
Whats your take on the Heinz
deal and the implications for
Berkshire?
Heinz shareholders are the
ones who got the initial bump.
Heinz shares jumped nearly 20
percent on the day the deal was
announced. But Berkshire will
get the earnings power of Heinz,
potentially for decades to come.
Heinz is a very stable business
that doesnt decline in a recession,
and it grows a little bit every year.
Thats an example of why my
fund owns some of the companies
making smart acquisitions, as well
as some of the acquisition targets.
Whats an example of a company
that the fund owns that might be
acquired?
True Religion Apparel, which is
best known for its high-priced
jeans. True Religion announced
in October that it was considering
a sale of the company as well as
other strategic options. Its gotten
some interest from potential
buyers. Its a company that holds
a large amount of cash, so its
got a margin of safety. And its
jeans can sell for $250 a pair. In a
recession, the average consumer
gets hurt but the rich people keep
buying expensive jeans. So if a
company like this isnt acquired,
and the economy slows down, it
will maintain its cash flow. Another
company thats in the funds
portfolio is Quality Systems,
a provider of electronic health
records. Thats a business that
doesnt go down in a recession.

AP
Japans Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, is doing
all he can to jolt his countrys economy out of a
two-decade slump. Since taking office late last
year, his efforts have translated into a
multimonth rally in Japans stock market. Its 14
percent return this year tops most markets
around the world.
Like the U.S. Federal Reserve, Japans
central bank plans to flood its financial system
by purchasing more than $530 billion a year in
government bonds; its most far-reaching step to
date to get consumers and companies to
borrow and spend.
Japan is just one of the developed markets
that have posted an average return of 6 percent
this year, compared with an average decline of
2.9 percent in emerging markets. The stock
markets of the most powerful emerging
economies the so-called BRIC nations of
Brazil, Russia, India and China trail the pack.

Emerging-market stocks have had
some of the weakest returns so far
this year, turning some investors off
the area.
But economists still expect
developing countries to offer the
worlds strongest economic growth.
Consumer spending in emerging
markets is growing with their middle
classes, and the International
Monetary Fund expects their
economies to grow 5.5 percent this
year. That compares with growth
expectations of just 2 percent for the
U.S. economy and 1.4 percent for
advanced economies overall.
This screen from Credit Suisse
shows U.S. stocks that get at least
20 percent of their revenue from
consumers in emerging markets.
Mead Johnson Nutrition, for
example, sells its baby formula and
nutritional products for children in
more than 50 countries. Its revenue
rose 6 percent last year to $3.9
billion, with much of the growth
coming from Asia and Latin
America.

Yields, mortgage rates remain low
Treasury yields were nearly flat last week, and the
yield on the 10-year note remained close to its
lowest level of 2013. Lower Treasury yields tend to
pull down rates on consumer loans, and the aver-
age rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage dropped to
3.43 percent last week from 3.54 percent. Thats
close to its record low of 3.31 percent set last No-
vember, according to Freddie Mac.

Name That Company
I was born in 1983 and now rake in
more than $4 billion annually, employ-
ing some 8,500 people. Based in Califor-
nia, I serve individuals as well as small
and mid-sized companies worldwide,
offering tax, business and financial man-
agement software and services. You might
know my QuickBooks, Quicken or TurboTax
products. I serve credit unions and banks, offer
payroll processing, and even help farmers with
crop pricing. Ive helped more than 50 million
people and am often listed as a great place to
work. My stock has grown by an annual average of
13 percent over the past decade. Who am I?
Know the answer? Send it to us with Foolish Trivia on the top and youll be
entered into a drawing for a nifty prize!
$200 million, they might recommend
(based on the companys needs) that
it sell 10 percent of its business as
stock, issuing 1 million shares priced
at $20 per share. Once its announced
that the company is going public, if
people are scrambling to buy shares,
the bank might increase the opening
price. A lack of interest might cause
the price to be lowered, or Antisocial
Networking might even postpone or
cancel the offering.
If all goes as planned, $20 million
will be generated. The investment
bank will typically keep about 7
percent for its services (more than a
million dollars), and Antisocial Net-
working will get the rest. From now
on, people will buy and sell Antiso-
cial Networking shares from each
other on the market, trading through
brokerages. Antisocial Networking
will not receive any more proceeds
from these shares it got its money
when it issued them.
Once its a public company,
Antisocial Networking will have
obligations to its shareholders and the
Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC). For example, it will have to
report earnings quarterly. Learn more

The Motley Fool Take
Retail Real Estate:
Boring but Exciting
If youre interested in retail and
real estate, consider Retail Oppor-
tunity Investments Corp. (Nasdaq:
ROIC) as a possible investment, as
it combines both. Its a real estate
investment trust (REIT), which is
a special kind of company that has
to pay out at least 90 percent of its
taxable income in the form of divi-
dends. The company is boring, but
also kind of exciting.
The underappreciated company
invests in necessity-based shopping
centers think grocers, banks and
pharmacies in space-constrained
markets with above-average incomes.
Thus, it focuses on stable, cash-
producing properties, buying solid
shopping centers, which, given a little
TLC, could do a lot better. By buy-
ing properties on the cheap in down
markets, it can sell or re-lease them at
higher rates as markets turn up.
Some speculate that the company
might get bought out by a bigger
fish at a premium price. It might
also simply keep getting bigger and
stronger on its own, growing its
occupancy rates over time, raising its
rates and seeing its value rise.
If you believe commercial real
estate will eventually bounce back,
Retail Opportunity Investments is a
great place to put your hard-earned
cash to work. The stock recently
offered a 4.4 percent dividend
yield, as well. (The Motley Fool
owns shares of Retail Opportunity
Investments and its newsletters have

My Dumbest Investment
Different Rules
Long ago, I bought 200 shares of
Intel at $25 apiece, on the advice
of a broker. Not too long later, the
stock hit $40 and the broker wanted
me to sell, which I did not
want to do. However, he
persisted and I finally gave
in. Thats when I learned that some
brokers are more interested in com-
missions than the clients wishes.
(He is no longer my broker.)
D.J.L., via email
The Fool Responds: Most
people dont realize this, but while
investment advisers and broker-
dealers often perform similar
services, such as making invest-
ment recommendations, theyre
generally not bound by the same set
of rules. Investment advisers usu-
ally have a fiduciary duty to put
their clients interests first, while
broker-dealers do not. Our friends
at the Securities and Exchange
Commission (SEC) are considering
making the rules more uniform, by
requiring more of brokers.
Your story shows how valuable it
can be to make our own investing
decisions. If, when Intel hit $40,
you knew the detailed reasons why
youd invested in it and you didnt
think they had changed, you might
not have sold.

Q
How should I go about review-
ing a companys financial state-
ments to assess its attractiveness?
G.A., Sioux City, Iowa
A
There are many numbers to
evaluate and crunch. The
more you learn about a company,
the more confidence youll have in
your ultimate investment decision.
On the balance sheet, if inven-
tory levels or accounts receivable
are growing faster than sales, thats
a worrisome sign. So is a rising
debt level, especially with high
interest rates. Examine the state-
ment of cash flows to see how cash
is being generated. Generally, you
want to see most cash coming from
ongoing operations products or
services sold and not from the
issuance of debt or stock or the sale
of property. Positive and growing
free cash flow is good, too.
Review the companys profit
margins (gross, operating and net).
Robust margins can be a sign of a
higher-quality company, suggesting
that it has a proprietary brand or
technology it can charge more for.
Perhaps examine return on
equity and return on assets, too,
comparing a company with its
competitors. See which firm is
generating more earnings for each
dollar invested in the business.
Check the numbers for previ-
ous years, too, to see whether the
trends are positive.

Like babies, stocks are born
sort of. Heres how: Imagine a com-
pany called Antisocial Networking
(ticker: SCRAM), which aims to
make money in the social network-
ing business by focusing on the
underserved market of anti-
social people. It may start
small, but to grow, it needs
to buy more equipment and hire
more workers. It needs cash, though.
Antisocial Networking has some
choices at this point. It can borrow
money from a bank. It can issue
bonds, which involves borrowing
money from individuals or institu-
tions and promising to pay lenders
back with interest. It can find one
or more wealthy people or compa-
nies interested in investing in the

public via an initial public offering

To go public, it will need to hire
an investment bank, which under-

A N E W S TA R T.
You work hard to make your house a home. At Pennstar Bank, were
committed to helping you make the most of your homes equity. So, you can
accomplish everything that counts most to you. Now, get a new Home Equity
Line of Credit with a six-month introductory rate of 1.00% APR. Or, ask us
about a great xed rate on a new home equity loan.
When it comes to your home, you can count on us. Stop by or call us today.
*To qualify for the introductory rate, a minimum line of $20,000 must be approved for a new home equity line of credit and ad vanced at closing, and payments must be automatically deducted from
a checking account at NBT Bank, N.A. or its divisions, Pennstar Bank and Hampshire First Bank (hereafter referred to jointly asNBT Bank). Customers with an existing home equity line of credit from
NBT Bank must be approved for an additional $20,000 to qualify. Residence must be a 1-4 family owner-occupied dwelling with a maximum loan to value of 80%. Rates shown are as of March 11,
2013. The 1.00% Annual Percentage Rate (APR) is an introductory rate for 6 months, and after that the rate can be as low as the oor rate of 3.25%. The APR after the introductory discount period is
variable and may change monthly based upon changes in the Prime Rate but will not fall below 3.25% or exceed 15.90%. The Prime Rate is the highest Prime Rate offered in the Wall Street Journal
based on the tenth day of the preceding month. Property insurance is required and ood insurance when necessary. Title insurance is required for all loans over $250,000 in a rst lien position
and may be required for loans with aggregation over $250,000 when the home equity is in a second lien position. If you cancel the line of credit within 4 years, you must reimburse us the
third-party fees paid in connection with opening the line. Closing costs paid to third parties generally total between $167 and $1,989 in MA, NH, PA and VT. See your tax advisor for details
on the tax deductibility of interest. Offer subject to credit and collateral approval. This is not a commitment to lend. Additional terms and conditions may apply depending on the type of
collateral and other loan terms offered or chosen.

Q: My husband and I own a
business that has seen some dif-
cult economic times. For the
past two years, we have had to
reduce staff and cut salaries just
to stay aoat.
Now that our children are
older, we have decided that I
should start working in the of-
ce, especially since I have
previous administrative experi-
ence.
Unfortunately, the secretary
who has been with us for 12
years apparently resents my
presence. Ellen treats me dis-
respectfully and seems reluctant
to show me the ropes, despite
the fact that I am an owner.
How should I handle this?
A: Tough times tend to focus
people on self-preservation. Al-
though Ellen may be a bit out of
line, her unwelcoming attitude
probably reects a concern that
your arrival may signal her im-
pending departure. After two
years of layoffs, she undoubt-
edly fears she might be next,
especially if you have assumed
some of her duties.
The way you were introduced
into the ofce might also be a
factor. Bringing the bosss wife
on board is not a minor event,
even when shes an owner. If you
just showed up one day and be-
gan doing stuff, that would be a
surere recipe for confusion and
conict.
Before you began work, your
husband should have explained
your new role to everyone, then
met individually with those who
would be directly affected. If he
failed to take these steps earlier,
he needs to do so now. With El-
len, he should honestly address
any concerns about job security
and establish clear expectations
for her relationship with you.
As you continue to increase
your active participation in
the business, remember that
you are going through a learn-
ing curve. Although you have
been an owner for many years,
you are now becoming more in-
volved in management, and that
requires an entirely different set
of skills.
Q: I recently learned that a
co-worker said some disparag-
ing things about me to our new
boss. Vicki is a know-it-all
drama queen who likes to get
people in trouble. Our previous
manager said that she seems to
have a lot of issues with me.
Vicki used to work for our
new manager, so Im afraid
hell believe whatever she says.
She also has a higher position
than mine, which might give
her more credibility. So far, the
new manager and I seem to be
getting along ne, but Im con-
cerned that Vicki might stir
things up.
A: Since managers usually
compare notes, the odds are
good that your old boss pro-
vided a heads-up about Vickis
negative feelings towards you.
If Vicki has a history of adver-
sarial relationships, the new
managers previous experience
with her might actually work in
your favor.
In reality, managers typically
form their own opinions based
on rst-hand observations of
employee performance and at-
titude.
If you do outstanding work
and get along with everyone,
your boss is sure to notice. He
will be especially appreciative if
you try to work well with Vicki,
since employee squabbles drive
all managers crazy.

OTHER OPINION: TEENS AND TANNING
Lets let parents
be the parents
S
tate Rep. Rosemarie
Swanger believes tan-
ning is dangerous for
minors and has proposed
legislation that would ban them
fromcommercial tanning salons.
She says indoor tanning is es-
sentially a cigarette for the skin,
and she has some statistics to
support that view. at a news
conference to support
Sangers bill, the moth-
er of a child who died
of cancer at age 27 tear-
fully told reporters that
her teenage daughters
weekly tanning gave
her cancer. (Doctors
say ultraviolet light
used in many tanning
salons is linked to can-
cer and those who tan
before the age of 35 are
75 percent more likely
to develop skin cancer than
someone who doesnt tan.)
But what Swanger, a Lebanon
County Republican, fails to re-
alize is shes proposing legisla-
tion that would take an aspect
of parenting out of the hands
of parents and put it into the
hands of Harrisburg lawmakers.
thats why we cant support this
proposal, despite the good inten-
tions involved.
Fast food can have negative
side effects, yet no one is propos-
ing we ban teens from fast-food
restaurants. (New York City
Mayor Mike Bloomberg, we sus-
pect youll be rst to do that.)
We expect parents to watch what
their children eat and ultimately
make the determination about
their diet. that same expecta-
tion must be applied to tanning.
erin Harmes, who manages
the La Bronze tanning salon
outside Harrisburg, told our
partners at abc27 that teens
represent a big part of her busi-
ness, especially this time of
year: Our clientele is
younger students and
they come in and they
want to tan. Its one
time a year. they have
their prom, and they
want to make it special
and want to get a little
glow.
Yet that scenario
would be outlawed if
Swanger has her way.
Swanger seems ea-
ger to parent teens
who ignore health warnings and
over-tan. Yet an outright ban on
minors tanning is an overreac-
tion to those concerns. a bill
that perhaps limits the length of
tanning sessions or number of
sessions seems like a more rea-
sonable approach if govern-
ment must intrude on this issue.
We agree with Swanger that
young adults may not under-
stand the long-term damage that
can come fromover-tanning, this
is yet another example of nanny-
state politics.
parents need to parent their
children. thats just not Harris-
burgs job.

Toomey sticks
his neck out
p
at tOOMeY, the great
compromiser? It sur-
prised us, too.
and not only did
pennsylvanias junior senator
and tea party darling reach his
hand across the aisle he stuck
his neck out, too.
Gun control generates strong
feelings, after all, especially
among Republicans, who tend
to view any legislation targeting
rearms as an attack on the Sec-
ond amendment.
Yet toomey, working with
Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of
West Virginia, helped craft a bill
that now seems to be the best
shot at passing any sort of gun
control reformin the wake of the
Sandy Hook elementary School
massacre.
Background checks for gun
buyers now are required only for
licensed gun dealers, but the bi-
partisan pairs bill would expand
the checks to transactions at gun
shows and online. It doesnt af-
fect non-commercial transfers,
such as between family mem-
bers, and actually expands gun
rights in some cases.
Neither side of the debate gets
everything it wants in this bill.
Its not the sweeping reform
thats needed, but it doesnt
leave things status quo, either.
Its called compromise, and
its something thats been sorely
lacking in Congress over the
past several years.
toomey deserves credit for
breaking ranks, a particularly
risky move the powerful Nation-
al Rie association already has
promised will cost him.
the NRa, which boasts 5 mil-
lion members, has threatened
to pull its a rating of toomey
and Manchin, as well as any law-
maker who votes for their bill,
and some gun rights advocates
thursday already were talking
about nding a primary chal-
lenger for toomey in 2016.
Despite the backlash, the sen-
ator has a powerful argument
he doesnt even consider his
bill gun control, but rather com-
mon sense.
Criminals and the danger-
ously mentally ill shouldnt have
guns, toomey said. I dont
know anyone who disagrees
with that premise.
We agree, and so do the 94
percent of pennsylvanians who
favored background checks for
all gun purchases in a recent
Franklin & Marshall poll.
Its not a lock toomey and
Manchins bill will clear the Sen-
ate much less the Republican-
controlled House although
we hope other, like-minded law-
makers are emboldened by their
example.
Regardless of the fate of the
bill, we give them both an a-
plus for their political courage.

OTHER OPINION: GUN CONTROL
A bill that per-
haps limits the
length of tanning
sessions or num-
ber of sessions
seems like a
more reasonable
approach.

Obamas eye-candy comment leaves sour aftertaste
DeaR BaRRY:
Ordinarily, Id address
you as Mr. Obama or
Mr. president, in defer-
ence to your ofce. But
we need to have us a
guy-to-guy chat here, so
I hope youll excuse the
familiarity, because I just
have to ask:
Barry, brotherman, bubbeleh, what the
heck were you thinking? Did you really call
California attorney General Kamala Harris,
by far the best-looking attorney general in
the country last week at a Democratic fun-
draiser in the Bay area? You werent, like,
nursing a cold and snockered on Robitussin
or something? You didnt lose a bet with
Joe Biden? You actually said that, of your
own free will?
Dude. Wow.
Yes, MSNBC helpfully reminds us that
youve also complimented men on their
looks, dubbing Secretary of Housing and
Urban Development Shaun Donovan, Inte-
rior Secretary Ken Salazar and the entire
pittsburgh penguins hockey team good-
looking guys.
Want to know how much that helps you
here? Whats the smallest measurable frac-
tion this side of zero?
a man, particularly a powerful man,
cannot always speak of or to a woman, as
he would one of the fellas. this is what you
forgot and the folks who keep saying it was
just a compliment dont quite get.
Is that a double standard? Yes. You darn
betcha. a certain columnist who happens
to be my mothers oldest son has, in years
past, identied this as something he calls
the Goliath principle, after Wilt Chamber-
lains famous observation that nobody
roots for Goliath.
the principle holds that, wherever there
is an imbalance of power white vs.
black, boss vs. employee, big guy vs. small,
man vs. woman a double standard is
an automatic and inevitable byproduct.
as nobody roots for Goliath, so are those
with more power always constrained in the
things our unwritten societal rules allow
them to say or do to those who have less.
the maid who snaps at her boss is cheeky;
the boss who snaps at her maid is overbear-
ing. the small man who hits the big one is
brave (or suicidal). the big man who hits
the small one is a bully.
and the woman who compliments her
male bosss looks might be a kiss up or
a irt, but the male boss who does the
reverse is a letch or a creep or, at the very
least, the embodiment of sexism that im-
prisons a womans entirety behind miscel-
laneous physical attributes given by God
and enhanced by Max Factor. But a woman
is more than her looks.
this is a truth we heterosexual men
tend to stumble on. Years ago, a woman
colleague asked me about famous women
I found attractive. Stupidly, I began to reel
off a list. It included Marina Sirtis, whom I
called an extraordinary woman.
My colleague exed an eyebrow and
asked what made her extraordinary. and
I was majorly busted, man, because I knew
next to nothing about the Star trek: the
Next Generation star certainly nothing
that would make her extraordinary ex-
cept that shes gorgeous and becomes more
so when she wears her Counselor troi
contact lenses, the ones that turn her eyes
into dark, liquid pools of compassion and
you gaze into them and feel yourself falling
in and know there is nothing you wouldnt
tell her, no secret you wouldnt .?.?. um .?.?.
wouldnt .?.?.
What were we talking about again?
Oh yeah. Women and their looks and the
fact that the smart man avoids discussion
of same. especially if he presides over a
Cabinet whose gender diversity is compa-
rable to that of the club that meets in Bart
Simpsons treehouse.
Nor is political embarrassment your only
worry. the same day you praised Harris
looks, the rst lady had a faux pas of her
own. She called herself a single mother.
Im thinking it was no accident.
So, Barry, guy to guy, I leave you with
this: Citiowers is a orist near the White
House. theyre open till 6 and take all
major credit cards.

COMMENTARY
LEONARD PI TTS J R.
AssociatedPress shouldnt stopwithillegal immigrants
tHe FaCt that the asso-
ciated press news agency
decided to ban the term
illegal immigrant last
week is a big victory for
fairness in journalism,
but there are other terms
used daily in the media
that should be revised as well.
Before we get to them, lets make it clear
that we are talking about expressions that
should be used in straight news stories,
as opposed to opinion columns such as
this one where journalists should enjoy
a greater exibility to play with words to
express their personal feelings.
as we have been writing here for several
years, the term illegal immigrant is unfair
and demeaning, because no human being
is illegal. a driver who speeds is not an
illegal driver, nor is a person who doesnt
pay the rent an illegal tenant. at long
last, the new ap Stylebook recognizes that
there are illegal actions, not illegal people.
even worse is the use of the word il-
legals as a noun, which dehumanizes
undocumented immigrants and paints all
of them as dangerous criminals. Fox News
and other immigrant-allergic news outlets
still use illegals all the time.
there are other terms, such as chain
migration, or anchor babies, or the
ood of immigrants, that are used every
day in the press, despite the fact that the
number of undocumented immigrants has
fallen in recent years, says Kathryn Vargas,
a spokeswoman for the National Immigra-
tion Forum advocacy group. these terms
are loaded with hostility, and take the hu-
man face out of the immigration debate.
But there are other terms that are used
daily in the media, such as gun control,
that also deserve closer scrutiny.
When we in the media publish headlines
about the gun control debate, we are
indirectly buying the National Rie asso-
ciation pro-gun lobbying groups argument
that all proposed gun regulations to reduce
mass killings are efforts to violate the U.S.
Constitutions second amendment, which
guarantees peoples right to bear arms.
Instead of talking about the gun con-
trol debate, we should be talking about
the gun violence debate. Incidentally, the
U.S. Constitution guarantees the right to
bear arms, but it doesnt say we have the
right to have semi-automatic ries.
Or take a much more common journal-
istic practice: identifying all presidents,
including dictators who have not allowed a
free election in decades, as president, or
leader.
I have always wondered why we insist
on describing Cubas dictator Gen. Raul
Castro, or North Koreas dictator Kim Jong-
un, as the Cuban leader, or the North
Korean leader, just like I never understood
why we kept calling late Chilean dictator
Gen. augusto pinochet during his years in
power as the Chilean leader.
there is no dictionary in the world that
would not dene these three characters as
dictators. For the record, my Google dic-
tionary denes president as the elected
head of a republican state, and dictator as
a ruler with total power over a country.
Which brings me to the mother of all
contentious terms, which is not being
questioned by virtually anybody in the
United States, but has long generated a lot
of resentment from Latin americans and
Canadians the term america.
america, or the americas, is the
Western Hemisphere. When Columbus
discovered the New World, his rst stops
were the Bahamas and Cuba, not Boston.
In fact, the rst known references to the
term america referred to South america,
in honor of explorer americus Vespucius.
When I mentioned this to my friend
edward Wasserman, dean of the University
of California-Berkeley Graduate School
of Journalism, he laughed and recalled
that his Spanish teacher in argentina
used to object even to his use of the term
norteamericano, and urged him to call
himself estadounidense.
You are right, the term american has
overtones of cultural arrogance, Wasser-
man said. We dont even have a term for
estadounidense in english.
My opinion: We should not move toward
an overly politically correct journalis-
tic lingo that ends up depriving most
terms of much of their meaning (I still
prefer handyman or handywoman to
handyperson.) But language denes
the message, and language is an evolving
phenomenon.
It was about time that the ap where
I worked for several years made the
change. I dont think I will see the ap
replacing america with the United
States, or USa, in my lifetime, but I
would be content if I see it at least moving
from gun control to gun violence in the
near future.

Shape-shifting reptilians? Why, yes!
Theres a question
missing from a list of
queries pollsters recently
spewed at their subjects
that should be part of
every survey: When
your attempts to catch
up on DVred episodes of
swamp People and Finding Bigfoot are
interrupted by calls from pollsters, do you
gleefully lie to them?
Im hoping the answer to that question
for some meaningful percentage of the pop-
ulace is yes. I nd that more comforting
than the idea that 4 percent of americans
or more than 12 million of my nation-
neighbors think shape-shifting reptil-
ian people control our world by taking on
human form and gaining political power
to manipulate our societies, as a recent
survey by Public Policy Polling reported.
The survey, released Tuesday, asked re-
spondents for their take on a series of top-
ics from the traditional tinfoil hat-wearing
conspiracies (Do you believe media or the
government adds secret mind-controlling
technology to television broadcast sig-
nals?) to some cutting-edge whackdoodle-
ism, like the lizard-overlord theory, about
which one more thought: In addition to
the 4 percent who believe Nancy Pelosi
and/or John Boehner are Komodo drag-
ons with opposable thumbs, 7 percent of
those polled answered not sure. really?
It doesnt feel like the kind of issue that
allows for fence-sitting. Commit!
Do you need more evidence that folks
are covering the receiver and yelling,
honey, pick up on the other line! Im
about to skew the entire worlds percep-
tion of americans? The responses in the
34-page report are broken down by the
age, ethnicity and political predilections
of those questioned. When asked whether
they believe President Barack Obama is the
anti-Christ, 13 percent said yes. That gave
me pause until I realized 5 percent of the
respondents claimed they voted for Obama
and believe he is the anti-Christ.
so this pro-anti-Christ cohort is what, 5
percent of the nation? If that were true, we
would be seeing more end Times=Good
Times T-shirts and Its Time We Put
the hell Back in hello bumper stickers
promoting the movement.
There was also something insidious
about the survey. along with the question
Do you believe Paul McCartney actually
died in a car crash in 1966 and was secretly
replaced by a look-alike so the Beatles
could continue? it mixed in far more main-
stream stuff: Is global warming a hoax?
Do vaccines cause autism? Did President
George W. Bush purposely mislead the
nation about the possibility of weapons of
mass destruction in Iraq to promote the
Iraq War?
Bush may not have purposely misled the
nation on WMDs (Id call it stubborn and
willful, not intentional), but I dont think
the 44 percent of respondents who believe
he did should really be considered con-
spiracy theorists. Theyre just theorists.
Why would Public Policy Polling try to
muddy the conspiracy waters by grouping
the crazily crackpot theories with the mere-
ly cynical? Jim Williams, a polling analyst
with the company, told me they had to
throw in some semi-serious questions to
get people to answer seriously. When I
scoffed and accused him and his company
of being in on the huge mind-bending
conspiracy that is secretly controlling every
aspect of our being, he said, You know,
we get a lot of emails and phone calls from
people who believe exactly that.
Think about it. If a secretive power
elite with a globalist agenda is conspiring
to eventually rule the world through an
authoritarian world government, or New
World Order, as 28 percent of respondents
said, wouldnt controlling the pollsters be
an important part of that vast conspiracy?
The beauty of all top-notch conspiracy
theories is that they can defeat any argu-
ment with the answer, Theyre all in on
it. In fact, anyone who believes in such
things will likely think I, as a member of
the mainstream media, am just another ac-
tor in the vast mirage that is reality.
I swear it isnt true, but I do so knowing
you can see my picture, and my resem-
blance to a shape-shifting reptilian overlord
isnt doing much to convince you.

Stem violent crime by
treating sick minds
T
he pros and cons of gun
control are very well taken
and arguable. all the perpetra-
tors of violence in our country
have had one common, obvious
denominator insanity.
That is the common ground we
need to build around in order
to attempt a way to curtail this
violence. If you Google school
violence you will nd some eye
opening facts. In the 1700s a
lunatic bombed a school which
inicted the largest amount
of fatalities in U.s history. No
video games back then!
everyones intentions to stop
this violence is commendable
but we need to realize that guns,
bombs, poisonous gas, arson are
weapons of destruction used by
the obviously insane. should
we pioneer an effort and take
measures to control and prevent
those inicted with this sickness
to be dealt with prior to rather
than after. This is the 21st cen-
tury and we should enforce the
humane ways to deal with this
problem. Taking the guns away
is a weak proposal. There are
many forms of treatment to be
considered and we need to take
action NOW.

One-armed employee
better than bullet limit
The state of Connecticut just
passed what are supposed to be
some of the toughest gun laws
in the country. any one of the
laws they passed will not stop
another school shooting.
some politicians who are
opposed to guns often say we
have to do something and if we
can save even one life we should
do it.
Then they pass a law that
puts 10 bullets into the hands of
a killer rather than 20. are they
not concerned about the 10 who
might die next?
any law passed should be
aimed at preventing any loss of
life. how many have died so far
because a shooter had a gun and
nobody else did? It doesnt do
any good to pass one size ts all
laws that affect only law abiding
citizens and do nothing to even
get the attention of those who
might commit the crime.
Our president should urge
Congress to pass a law requir-
ing all public schools to have at
least one armed person, with a
concealed weapon, on duty at
all times during school hours.
This person or persons would
be known only to the local
police and they would recruit
and train them. They might be
a principle, teacher or janitor.
The chances of any of them
ever having to use their weapon
would be almost non existent.
Children would not even know
because there would be no
visible armed guards and school
would go on as normal. This
would certainly get the atten-
tion of anyone thinking of going
on a shooting spree.
I dont see how anyone could
deny this might save lives.
Can anyone name one law
proposed or passed so far that
might save lives? We already
have laws against stealing guns
and shooting people but that
didnt stop a killer. an armed
teacher could have.

The Obama budget and
the appearance of reform
WeLL, aT
least were
starting to get
the procedure
right. Wash-
ington has re-
discovered the
beauty of the
boring. Its called regular or-
der, using the normal, routine,
constitutional process to arrive
at, for example, a budget.
Normal had disappeared dur-
ing the Obama years. repub-
licans duly submitted annual
budgets, which the president
then used for target practice,
most famously demagoguing
Paul ryans 2011 budget as
un-american. Meanwhile, the
Democratic-controlled sen-
ate simply stopped producing
budgets for four years. and the
ones the White house put out
were so preposterous that, for
example, the 2011 version was
rejected by the senate 97-0.
What little progress that was
made came by way of crisis
backroom deals orchestrated by
Gangs of This or That. One gave
us a sequester that everyone
purports to deplore. another
gave us the naked tax hike of
the scal cliff. and none pro-
duced a written record of actual,
written offers that could serve
as the basis for serious, open
negotiations.
ad hoc, person-to-person
negotiations generally require
a high level of trust. The great
virtue of regular order is that
procedure can substitute for
trust. and now we see its rst
fruit: each side has nally had
to show its cards.
Now the bad news. The cards
laid down by the White house
are quite unimpressive. The
2014 budget is tax-and-spend
as usual. The actual decit
reduction over a decade is a
minuscule $0.6 trillion out of
a total spending of $46.5 trillion.
and every penny of this tiny
reduction comes from tax hikes.
Nothing from spending cuts,
which all end up getting spent
elsewhere.
Moreover, wheres the com-
promise? The Obama budget
calls for not only more spend-
ing than the GOPs, but more
than the Democratic senates
as well. For just FY 2014, it
even contains $160 billion more
spending, and $128 billion more
decit, than if the budget
that Obama purports to be cut-
ting were left untouched!
True, President Obama has
nally put on the table, in writ-
ing, an entitlement reform. This
is good. But the spin, mind-
lessly echoed in the mainstream
media, that this is some cosmic
breakthrough is comical.
First, the proposal
chained CPI, a change in the
way ination is measured is
very small. It reduces social
security by a quarter of a penny
on the dollar a $2,000 check
reduced by a ve dollar bill.
second, the change is merely
technical. The White house it-
self admits that the result is sim-
ply a more accurate measure of
ination. Its not really cutting
anything. It merely eliminates
an unintended overpayment.
Finally, the president made
it clear that he doesnt like this
reform at all. Its merely a gift to
republicans. This is odd. Why
should a technical correction be
a political favor to anyone? Is
getting things right not a favor
to the nation?
What the budget is crying out
for is some entitlement reform
that goes beyond the bare-
minimum CPI revision that just
about every decit commission
of the last 15 years has recom-
mended as an obvious gimme.
The other obvious reform is to
raise the retirement/eligibil-
ity age for social security and
Medicare to match longevity.
These programs were meant to
protect the elderly from destitu-
tion, not to subsidize almost
one-third the adult life of every
baby boomer.
Given the presidents distaste
for even chained CPI, its hard
to see him ever agreeing to a
major reform on the retirement
age. Nonetheless, the proposi-
tion deserves testing through
a major GOP concession on
revenue.
By way of tax reform. The
landmark 1986 reagan-Tip
ONeill tax reform was revenue
neutral. It closed tax loopholes
and devoted the money to
reduce tax rates. as I suggested
last month, the GOP should of-
fer Obama a major concession:
a 50 percent solution in which
only half the loophole money
goes to reduce tax rates. The
rest goes to the Treasury, to
be spent or saved as Congress
decides.
This seems to me the only
plausible route to a grand com-
promise that restores the budget
to scal health. Its chances are
remote. But they are mildly im-
proved by a return to a regular
order in which these kinds of
compromises could be worked
out over time, in debate, in com-
mittee, in Congress.
Can the Democrats, now gag-
ging on just chained CPI, agree
to a major entitlement reform
like an adjusted retirement age?
Game on. By regular order.

Think about it. If a secretive power
elite with a globalist agenda is con-
spiring to eventually rule the world
through an authoritarian world gov-
ernment, or New World Order, as 28
percent of respondents said, wouldnt
controlling the pollsters be an impor-
tant part of that vast conspiracy?

Learn how not to say the wrong thing
When SuSan had breast
cancer, we heard a lot of lame
remarks, but our favorite came
from one of Susans colleagues.
She wanted, she needed, to
visit Susan after the surgery,
but Susan didnt feel like
having visitors, and she said
so. her colleagues response?
This isnt just about you.
Its not? Susan wondered.
My breast cancer is not about
me? Its about you?
The same theme came up
again when our friend Katie
had a brain aneurysm. She was
in intensive care for a long
time and nally got out and
into a step-down unit. She was
no longer covered with tubes
and lines and monitors, but
she was still in rough shape.
a friend came and saw her
and then stepped into the hall
with Katies husband, Pat. I
wasnt prepared for this, she
told him. I dont know if I can
handle it.
This woman loves Katie, and
she said what she did because
the sight of Katie in this condi-
tion moved her so deeply. But
it was the wrong thing to say.
and it was wrong in the same
way Susans colleagues remark
was wrong.
Susan has since developed a
simple technique to help peo-
ple avoid this mistake. It works
for all kinds of crises: medical,
legal, nancial, romantic, even
existential. She calls it the Ring
Theory.
Draw a circle. This is the
center ring. In it, put the name
of the person at the center of
the current trauma. For Katies
aneurysm, thats Katie. now
draw a larger circle around the
rst one. In that ring put the
name of the person next clos-
est to the trauma. In the case
of Katies aneurysm, that was
Katies husband, Pat. Repeat
the process as many times as
you need to. In each larger ring
put the next closest people.
Parents and children before
more distant relatives. Intimate
friends in smaller rings, less
intimate friends in larger ones.
When you are done you have
a Kvetching Order. One of
Susans patients found it useful
to tape it to her refrigerator.
here are the rules. The per-
son in the center ring can say
anything she wants to anyone,
anywhere. She can kvetch and
complain and whine and moan
and curse the heavens and say,
Life is unfair and Why me?
Thats the one payoff for being
in the center ring.
everyone else can say those
things too, but only to people
in larger rings.
When you are talking to a
person in a ring smaller than
yours, someone closer to the
center of the crisis, the goal
is to help. Listening is often
more helpful than talking. But
if youre going to open your
mouth, ask yourself if what
you are about to say is likely to
provide comfort and support.
If it isnt, dont say it. Dont, for
example, give advice. People
who are suffering from trauma
dont need advice. They need
comfort and support. So say,
Im sorry or This must re-
ally be hard for you or Can I
bring you a pot roast? Dont
say, You should hear what
happened to me or heres
what I would do if I were you.
and dont say, This is really
bringing me down.
If you want to scream or cry
or complain, if you want to tell
someone how shocked you are
or how icky you feel, or whine
about how it reminds you of
all the terrible things that have
happened to you lately, thats
ne. Its a perfectly normal
response. Just do it to someone
in a bigger ring.
Comfort In, dump OuT.
There was nothing wrong
with Katies friend saying she
was not prepared for how
horrible Katie looked, or even
that she didnt think she could
handle it. The mistake was that
she said those things to Pat.
She dumped In.
Complaining to someone in a
smaller ring than yours doesnt
do either of you any good. On
the other hand, being support-
ive to her principal caregiver
may be the best thing you can
do for the patient.
Most of us know this. almost
nobody would complain to the
patient about how rotten she
looks. almost no one would
say that looking at her makes
them think of the fragility of
life and their own closeness
to death. In other words, we
know enough not to dump into
the center ring. Ring Theory
merely expands that intuition
and makes it more concrete:
Dont just avoid dumping into
the center ring, avoid dumping
into any ring smaller than your
own.
Remember, you can say
whatever you want if you just
wait until youre talking to
someone in a larger ring than
yours.

MAIL BAG | LETTERS FROM READERS
Advocate cites
circus suffering
R
ingling Brothers and Bar-
num and Bailey circus is
coming to the arena in a few
short weeks. We would like
people to consider this view
point out of concern for the
animals involved. The circus
rips animals from their natural
habitat, forces them to live
most of their lives chained in-
side of trailers that are trucked
across hundreds of miles, and
then forces them to perform
under the constant threat of
punishment.
The key to saving endan-
gered species lies in saving
their habitat, not removing
them from it only to place
them in an unnatural environ-
ment. Their captive state pro-
vides no educational value. It
tells us nothing about nature,
because it is so articial.
The only group that prots
from the circus is the circus
business itself. While human
entertainers may thrive on the
attention of the circus, the ani-
mals do notit is something
they are forced to endure. The
circus is no fun for animals.
The tricks performed do not
even come close to mimick-
ing these animals normal and
natural actions and behaviors.
Captivity of wild animals
provides an environment of
fear, boredom, illness, and
anxiety. They are denied all
that is natural to themfood,
activity, socialization, and
natural behaviors. Pacing,
bar biting, circling, and self-
mutilation are common among
performing animals. This is
now recognized as neurotic
behavior caused by captivity
and an unnatural lifestyle. The
whips, muzzles, chains, and
other tools used in circuses
are constant visual reminders
that these animals are being
forced to perform out of fear.
We say that circuses allow us
to feel a closeness to nature,
when in fact it is the steel bars
that instead emphasize and re-
inforce the separation between
human and animal.
Performing elephants are
shackled in chains for 95 per-
cent of their lives. Tigers are
kept in cages four by ve feet
for transportation as well as liv-
ing quarters. Steel rods, whips,
muzzles, electric prods, food
and water deprivation, hook-
ing, paw burning, application
of caustic chemicals, chains,
and isolation are the training
methods used. These animals
spirits have been broken, they
are degraded, isolated, shack-
led, lonely, and bored this is
not entertainment.
Circuses teach children that
it is okay to dominate, whip,
chain, and beat another living,
feeling being. This insensitiv-
ity surely is not something
that most parents would like
their children to learn. Circus
animals are kept in cages
that are too small to allow for
movement, or they are chained
to keep them stationary. They
are prisoners of prot and cru-
elty. Performing animals are
prisoners who have committed
no crime. Let the animal circus
join bear baiting, cockghting,
and bull baiting in the dust-
pan of antique abuses that no
longer entertain us.
For those who think the ani-
mal circus is a tradition thats
part of our heritage, remember
that children in mines and
slavery were as well. animals
perform out of fear. The admis-
sion fee isnt the only price
paid. The animals pay a price
with their sanity and their
lives. Once these animals are
used up or begin to exhibit
aggressive behaviors, they are
often sold to exotic animal
dealers and canned hunt farms
to be used as targets. Circus
animals lead lonely miserable
lives. Depending on the avail-
ability of food, tigers in the
wild secure a territory of 75 to
2,000 square miles.
The only exercise tigers
get is when they are forced to
perform.
Please say no to this cruelty
and stop giving your dollars for
this vicious cycle to continue.
