Fatal hit-run charge moves forward
WILKES-BARRE Investigators
believe Thomas Letteer Jr. was driv-
ing the vehicle that struck and killed
5-year-old Kevin Miller on North Street
on Dec. 21, and with FBI assistance,
they said they have mapped Letteers
movements before and after.
Letteer, 23, of Mack Street, Plains
Township, was placed at specic loca-
tions by use of his cellphone. Letteer
allegedly made three phone calls that
were processed through two cell tow-
ers in downtown Wilkes-Barre minutes
after the boy was struck.
The mapping of Letteers cell use
was critical for Luzerne County pros-
ecutors Alexis Falvello and Mamie
Phillips during an emotional prelimi-
nary hearing on Monday. Falvello and
Phillips convinced District Judge Mar-
tin Kane to forward a felony charge of
accidents involving death to Luzerne
County Court.
City police and county detectives al-
lege Letteer was behind the wheel of a
red 1999 Pontiac Grand Am that struck
the boy as he held the hand of his fa-
ther, Stephen Miller, of Dallas, as they
left a holiday party on North Street.
I was holding Kevins hand with my
left hand and we were all crossing the
street together, Stephen Miller testi-
ed, noting he did not see any vehicles
when he crossed. As I was stepping
onto the curb, I felt Kevin leaving my

La Tolteca re ruled accidental
CLArk VAN OrDEN/THE TimES LEADEr
Carlos DeLeon, owner of La Tolteca in Wilkes-Barre Township, looks over the re and water damage at his restaurant Monday.
Owner hopes to reopen eatery in a month
WILKES-BARRE TWP.
Plates of food remained on the
tables below fallen ceiling tiles
at LaTolteca Mexican Restau-
rant Monday evidence of
how quickly customers ed
when a devastating re broke
out Sunday evening.
Thirty-three year-old owner
Carlos DeLeon walked around
the building trying to make
sense of it all as he waited for
insurance inspectors to arrive
to assess the damages so he
can begin to rebuild the popu-
lar eatery off Mundy Street he
opened nearly nine years ago.
Wilkes-Barre Township Fire
Chief John Yuknavich said
Monday the re was deter-
mined to be accidental, prob-
ably started by a still-lit ciga-
rette tossed near cardboard
boxes at the rear of the build-
ing.
Yuknavich said the ruling
was made by him, Assistant
Fire Chief Danny Harken-
reader and Ashley Borough
Fire Chief Joe McGlynn after
employees and the restaurants
owner were interviewed.
The employees take their
break in the back in an en-
closed area where boxes are
thrown before being taken to
a Dumpster at the end of the
night, Yuknavich said. The
re started there and ran up
the outside wall to the roof.
Yuknavich said employees
tried to douse the re with a
garden hose, but couldnt con-
tain it.
As he walked through res-
taurant in the heart of the
townships commercial dis-
trict, DeLeon shook his head.
Its a lot of damage, he
said. And this happens right
before my busiest week.
Cinco de Mayo May 5
a celebration of Mexican
heritage and pride, will come
and go without festivities at

DeLeon said he hopes to get
the place reopened within a
month.
The main thing is every-
body got out and nobody was
hurt, DeLeon said. Thats
the main concern. We can put
everything else back together.

KINGSTON Thanks to a $6
million renovation, many fewer
psychiatric patients and their
families will have to travel hours
away to receive treatment and
offer support.
Commonwealth Health is
expanding behavioral health re-
sources in Northeastern Penn-
sylvania with the addition of
20 inpatient
adult psychi-
atric beds at
First Hospital.
The new beds
are dedicated
to care for the
most complex
acute behav-
ioral health
cases, increasing the hospitals
capacity to 127 beds, a growth
of nearly 20 percent.
The biggest issue is that a lot
of residents of this community
have to go down to the Philadel-
phia area when there is a lack of
psych beds, First Hospital CEO
Mark Schor said before a ribbon-
cutting ceremony at the hospital
on Monday.
With the closure of the ap-
proximately 20-bed psych unit
at Marian Community Hospital
in Carbondale last year, First
Hospital has been seeing more
and more residents leaving the
area for behavioral health treat-
ment anywhere between 50

FORT CAMPBELL, Ky.
Sgt. 1st Class Greg Robinson
has become the rst amputee
to complete Army air assault
school, a course so grueling
his prosthetic leg broke twice
over the 10 days spent rappel-
ling down ropes, navigating ob-
stacle courses and completing
long road marches.
Each year thousands of sol-
diers are physically and men-
tally tested to their limits at
the Fort Campbell school. In-
structors said Robinson accom-
plished everything other partic-
ipants did and trainers cut him
no slack even though he lost
part of his right leg in a 2006
deployment to Afghanistan.
When he joined his team-
mates at a brief graduation
ceremony Monday at the Sa-
balauski Air Assault School, it
was a testament to what can
be achieved by amputees. War
wounds from Iraq and Afghani-
stan and the recent bombing
at the Boston Marathon have
highlighted the challenges that
amputee patients face to re-
cover.
An inspiration to the bomb-
ing victims? Robinson, a
34-year-old noncommissioned
ofcer from Elizabethtown, Ill.,
said his attitude was one of just
wanting to complete the same
program he sends soldiers to
who are under his command.
Right now, I am a platoon
sergeant, Robinson told re-
porters after graduating. I have
roughly 30 men in my platoon.
As a leader, I didnt want to tell
my soldiers that they needed to
go to air assault school, if I am

HARVEYS LAKE - The bor-
ough planning commission
Monday night tabled a compa-
nys request to build a 195-foot
cellphone tower.
That decision came after at-
torney Eric Goldman, who rep-
resents X Cell, the tower com-
pany, and Mario Calabretta, X
Cells engineer, disagreed with
commission member Michael
Dziak about the status of the
area where the tower is to be
built. Dziak and Penn East-
ern engineer Daryl Pawlush
challenged X Cells represen-
tatives, who said the area is
not required to be labeled as
a subdivision. Dziak was also
concerned about the property
owners Clean and Green sta-
tus if the tower is placed on the
property. Dziak said the county
will not issue a separate num-
ber for tax purposes if the area
is not a subdivision, leaving the
property owner responsible for
the taxes.
X Cell wants to lease a
100-foot-by-100-foot area of
property off Cliff Street. The
actual area to be used for the
tower is 50 feet by 50 feet,
with room to expand if other
providers decide to join in with
the anchor provider, AT&T.
Attorney Mark McNealis has
said he will research whether
the area is legally considered
a subdivision. After McNealis
determines the lands status,
the commission will meet with
Goldman and Calabretta in or-
der to grant the application to
work on the property.
Lakeside Drive resident
Mary Ann Tarantini is not
pleased with the potential
plans.
This is a beautiful area and
we dont want to see these
things around Tarantini said.
The neighbors want to keep
the beauty.

next meeting is May 15.

POLICE BLOTTER
HANOVER TWP. Township
police are investigating the rob-
bery of a Posten Taxi car driver
along South Main Street in the
Preston section of the township
Monday morning.
Posten driver Christopher Weiss
reported that he was transporting
a fare along South Main Street at
about 10 a.m. when a male passen-
ger stuck a knife to his waist and
demanded him to pull over.
After he pulled the cab to the
side of the road, the two men and
the woman he was transporting to
Wilkes-Barre robbed him of about
$80 and ed to the Park & Ride
along South Main Street, where
they got into and drove away in a
blue or black four-door vehicle.
Two of the suspects are de-
scribed as white men in their 30s,
about 6 feet tall. One had a thin
build, short, brown hair and a thin
mustache and was wearing blue
jeans and a gray Ohio Buckeyes
sweatshirt. The other had blonde
hair in a ponytail and was wearing
tan cargo pants, a dark shirt and a
Penn State baseball cap.
The third suspect was a white
or Hispanic woman in her mid 20s,
about 5 feet, 6 inches tall, with
blonde hair and wearing a red Old
Navy zipped hoodie.
Anyone with information should
call police at 570-825-1254.
WEST PITTSTON An allega-
tion of shoplifting led to the ling
of a slew of additional charges of a
Kingston man accused of possess-
ing key ingredients to manufacture
methamphetamine.
West Pittston Police Sgt. Mi-
chael Turner responded to a re-
port of retail theft at the Gerritys
Supermarket, 801 Wyoming Ave.,
on Oct. 26, where loss prevention
ofcer Mary Turek had detained
John Stribaugh, 41, of rear South
Wyoming Avenue, for allegedly
concealing two, 1-ounce containers
of iodine valued at $2.78.
The state police Troop P Vice/
Narcotics Unit conrmed for
Turner that iodine is an ingredient
used to manufacture methamphet-
amine.
Turner reviewed surveillance
video and determined which
vehicle Stribaugh drove to the
store. He observed a plastic bag
on the oor containing boxes of
matches, more iodine and a spray
can of what appeared to be ether.
State police conrmed they were
also meth ingredients and Turner
obtained a search warrant for the
vehicle.
The items seized from the ve-
hicle were sent to the state police
crime lab for analysis. A report
came back on March 12 identify-
ing the items as key ingredients
and equipment necessary for the
clandestine manufacture of meth-
amphetamine, according to court
records.
Stribaugh was charged with two
counts of the manufacture, deliv-
ery or possession with intent to
manufacture or deliver a controlled
substance; three counts of posses-
sion of liquied ammonia with the
intent to manufacture a controlled
substance; one count of risking
catastrophe; two counts of posses-
sion of a controlled substance; and
one count of retail theft.
He was arraigned before Dis-
trict Judge Joseph Carmody and
released on $7,500 unsecured bail.
His preliminary hearing is sched-
uled for 9 a.m. May 8 before Car-
mody.
HANOVER TWP. Police are
trying to locate a late 1990s or
early 2000s green extended cab
Dodge truck with Eagles decals on
the rear tailgate.
The truck was involved in an
assault on Oxford Street Sunday
evening in which a male from the
Mountain Top area suffered minor
injuries. The truck was said to be
occupied by three white males
and one white or Hispanic male. A
white male wearing glasses and a
sweatshirt is the suspected assail-
ant, police said.
The truck was last seen traveling
west on West Division Street. Any-
one with information should call
police at 570-825-1254 or dial 911.
WILKES-BARRE City police
reported the following:
Police are searching for a sil-
ver Volkswagen Jetta they say ed
the scene of a crash in front of 18 E.
Main St. late Saturday night.
The Jetta, which was occupied
by two women and headed toward
Plains Township, likely has exten-
sive damage to the right front, in-
cluding a smashed headlight.
Anyone with information should
call police at 826-8106 and leave a
message for Ofcer J. Touey.
After responding on Sunday
to Kirby Park for a report of a man
selling marijuana, police arrested
a 15-year-old boy who admitted to
having marijuana but denied sell-
ing it and said it was for his own
personal use.
The boy was taken to police
headquarters and released to his
mother. Charges will be led, po-
lice said, adding that two pill bot-
tles with suspected marijuana were
conscated.

Shavertown bridge reopens after lengthy project
SHAVERTOWN After
more than a year and more
than a million dollars, the East
Center Street Bridge Project in
Shavertown is complete.
The bridge, closed on April
16, 2012, reopened to trafc
earlier this month, and a ribbon-
cutting ceremony was held last
week.
Were relieved, Kingston
Township Manager Kathleen
Sebastian said of the bridges
opening. Its beautiful. They
did a fantastic job and every-
body is thrilled.
Sebastian explained plans to
renovate the bridge started in
2000 and included removing the
old bridge, widening the area,
building a new bridge and new
roads.
Kingston Township budgeted
$220,000, or 20 percent of the
overall cost, while the remain-
ing 80 percent of the project was
paid for by the Pennsylvania De-
partment of Transportation.
Everything went smoothly,
Sebastian said, although crews
did run into soil erosion prob-
lems when digging into the
creek bed, making redesigns
necessary. Everybody coop-
erated. Once it started, it was
smooth sailing.
Bob Nause, proprietor of Top
Value Kitchens near the bridge,
is happy that its open, al-
though he admitted the closed
bridge had little effect on his
business.
Ours is a destination busi-
ness, not a spur of the moment
sale, he said. A kitchen is a
well-planned decision because
of the cost involved.
Nause said customers made
every effort to get around the
detour to get to his business
which does not depend on retail
ow.
It was, however, a huge nui-
sance for tractor trailers deliv-
ering product, he admitted,
explaining how trucks needed
to be re-routed to Main Street
around Offset Paperback to
reach his business.
The story is different for Greg
Williams, owner of Studio 309
Music Antiques and Collect-
ibles, who said his business suf-
fered tremendously during the
bridge reconstruction.
Williams rented a building
on the corner of Main and Cen-
ter streets that he lived in as
an 18-year-old just two weeks
before the bridge closed, not
knowing about the construction
project.
We suffered dearly and pa-
tiently, he said. We depend
entirely on retail trafc and the
only accessibility to our build-
ing was through the back door.
Williams added that he was
forced to sell a lot of his mer-
chandise at area ea markets
and on Ebay during the bridge
project.
Of the bridge itself, however,
he said, The bridge is gorgeous.
It looks fantastic and has done a
lot to improve the infrastructure
of Shavertown.
Susan Collini, of Plastic and
Reconstructive Surgeons Ltd. at
the intersection of Center Street
and Route 309, mirrors Nauses
comments.
Although it was difcult for
people to get into the center,
they did gure out a way to get
here, she said. We didnt face
the same challenges the retail
folks did.
Collini does, however, feel
the Main Street/Center Street
intersection was safer than ever
during the bridge reconstruc-
tion.
A 3-way stop sign had been
installed at the intersection dur-
ing the project, slowing trafc
in all directions. Now that the
bridge has re-opened, the third
stop sign has been removed.
Ive seen so many near ac-
cidents at that intersection
before the 3-way stop sign was
installed, Collini said. Its a
dangerous intersection. We
have actually petitioned the
township to put in a 4-way stop
sign.
As for the completed bridge
project, Collini said, Its won-
derful. Its been a long time
coming.
She commended the workers
and their attention to detail.
I know it was a lot of money
for the township but it was well
worth it.

PLAINS TWP. - Wilkes-Barre
Area Career & Technical Cen-
ter Joint Operating Committee
forwarded a proposed 2013-
2014 budget of $8.8 million to
participating school districts
for approval on Monday night.
Crestwood, Greater Nan-
ticoke Area, Hanover Area,
Pittston Area, and Wilkes-Barre
Area school districts will have
until June 30 to weigh in on the
budget, which is $74,465 lower
than the current years spend-
ing plan.
All member school districts
are expected to approve the
budget, said Business Man-
ager Tom Melone. There has
been no increase in payments
required from those districts.
Melone lauded the work
of the committee and staff in
minimizing costs throughout
the year.
Although we have been able
to contain costs, we have ab-
solutely been able to maintain
quality education, said com-
mittee member John Quinn,
of Wilkes-Barre Area, citing
special recognition received
from the state Department of
Education for assessment test-
ing scores.
Principal Frank Majikes
said he was especially proud
the center had matriculation
agreements with several col-
leges that made it possible for
students to continue their edu-
cation after graduation.
Our cooperative programs
also make it possible for stu-
dents to get hands-on experi-
ence, which is invaluable, said
Majikes.
Each member district will
vote on the budget, which
must be adopted by June 30.

WILKES-BARRE He may have
graduated as a Meyers Mohawk and
spent his professional career working
at Wilkes-Barre Area School District,
but beginning July 1, Andrew Kuhl is
not only a Hanover Area Hawkeye,
hes the top Hawk.
I graduated from Meyers, Kuhl
said Monday as he begins the transi-
tion fromhis job as Wilkes-Barre Area
director of secondary curriculum
to Hanover Area superintendent. I
worked in every secondary school in
Wilkes-Barre through the years. Its
tough to leave when you have such
deep roots.
The Hanover Area School Board
voted to hire Kuhl during a special
meeting last week. He will replace re-
tiring Superintendent Anthony Pod-
cazy at a time of dramatic changes.
Kuhl will assume the post just as
the teacher and support staff con-
tracts expire. The two sides began
negotiations earlier this year, as re-
quired by state law.
Kuhl also will become superinten-
dent as school districts shift from
current state education standards to
the new Common Core standards
adopted by Pennsylvania and 45
other states. The new standards also
come with new tests, as the state has
rolled out the high school Keystone
Exams given in various subjects at
the end of a course, and is revamping
the Pennsylvania System of School
Assessment tests in grades three
through eight to align with Common
Core.
Administrative challenges
Throw in a new, more time-con-
suming teacher and principal evalu-
ation system implemented by the
state, as well as a looming change
in how the state measures each
schools success (moving away from
prociency in standardized tests
to student academic growth), and
it looks like Kuhl is taking the reins

SCRANTON Things continue
to look up for the nancially strug-
gling Diocese of Scranton, with the
Diocesan Annual Appeal a key
money-raising effort each year ex-
ceeding goals and netting the second
highest amount in the history of the
fund drive.
The appeal was launched this year
with a goal of $5.55 million, and the
diocese issued a press release Mon-
day noting more than $5.58 million
has been pledged so far, with two
months left for donors to step for-
ward.
Diocese Spokesman Bill Genello
said the record for donations was
set during the 2006-07 appeal, which
raised $6.09 million when the goal
was $5.25 million. That total was
bolstered substantially by several
large corporate and individual con-
tributions that totaled $1.1 million,
according to Times
Leader archives.
This years to-
tal so far has been
pledged by 33,198
donors, according
to the diocese, mak-
ing an average gift
of $168.14. The dio-
cese sets goals for each parish as well
as an overall goal, and so far 36 par-
ishes in the 11-county diocese have
met their individual goals. With 121
parishes, thats slightly less than 30
percent hitting their goals so far, but
Genello noted another 15 parishes
topped 90 percent of their goals.
Exceeding the goal in the appeal
may be further evidence the diocese
is turning a nancial corner. The
diocese had a history of exceeding
steadily increasing goals until that
2006-07 peak. Total donations de-
clined in following years and then-
Bishop Joseph Martino released
nancial statements that painted
gloomy pictures of a diocese battling
growing debt.
Martino oversaw extensive school
and church closings before retiring
unexpectedly in 2009, but the steps
he took seem to have worked, with
his successor, Bishop Joseph Bam-
bera, overseeing a return to increases
in Appeal totals and a reduction of
debt.
Among other things, money from
the appeal goes toward care for re-
tired priests, programs for formation
of priests and deacons, social service
programs for the poor and diocesan
media outlets such as the Catholic

WILKES-BARRE Defenses by
Luzerne County Public Defenders Of-
ce of three men separately charged
with rearm offenses, burglary and
sexually assaulting a child will be in-
adequate due to excessive caseloads,
understafng and lack of resources,
according to an amended class action
lawsuit led in county court Friday.
The amended suit,
led on behalf of
former Chief Public
Defender Al Flora Jr.,
and three men fac-
ing felony charges,
claims the public
defenders ofce and
public defenders can-
not lawfully represent their clients due
to limited resources and space and a
declining budget from county council.
Flora led a separate lawsuit in fed-
eral court last week over his dismissal
as chief public defender by county
Manager Robert Lawton on April 17.
The amended suit replaces another
lawsuit that Flora, when he was chief
public defender, led against the coun-
ty in April 2012. Trial is scheduled in
June.
According to the latest suit:
In December 2011, Flora stopped as-
signing public defenders to represent
clients who were charged with lesser
crimes due to excessive caseloads,
limited stafng and a state Supreme
Court order to expunge the records of
nearly 3,000 juvenile cases that were
presided over by former county judge
Mark Ciavarella.
In June, Senior Judge Joseph Augel-
lo ordered Flora to resume represent-
ing all defendants who qualied for
representation and told the county to
allowFlora to ll vacant positions. Flo-
ra reassigned a public defender from
adult cases to juvenile cases, but was
not permitted by the county to hire an
attorney despite money in the budget
to pay the salary.
Flora claimed county council allo-
cated $2.5 million, a nearly 7 percent
decrease from 2011, for the public
defenders ofce in 2012. Flora rear-

Bus company is sued
A Plains Township couple led
a lawsuit in Luzerne County Court
Monday against a local bus company
after a November 2011 accident that
left a man injured.
Namik and Nancy Tedik led the
suit through their attorney, David
Selingo, against the Yatesville Bus
Company and Allstate Insurance
Company requesting monetary dam-
ages.
According to court papers, on Nov.
8, 2011, a vehicle driven by Namik
Tedik was struck on Route 315 in
Jenkins Township by a Yatesville Bus
Company bus. The suit alleges the
bus company acted negligently and
careless in causing injuries to Namik
Tedik, including a herniated disc and
other pain. The accident has caused
Namik Tedik to incur large sums of
money for medication and treatment,
court papers say.

WBA budget input sought
Wilkes-Barre Area School District
residents get their third chance to sit
in on and offer suggestions at a
meeting of the school boards budget
and nance committee today. The
committee will hold a third public
meeting at 5:30 p.m.
The board is trying to close a short-
fall that began at about $2.7 million
between what it expects to take in and
would likely spend just to maintain
the status quo next school year. Board
members have already agreed to ask
principals and athletic directors to cut
supply costs by 10 percent, and re-
jected a three-year, $270,000 contract
with Hawkeye Security Solutions for
monitoring of security camera video
outside schools.
The district is trying to draw up a
budget with signicant unknowns:
Contracts for teachers, administra-
tors, support staff and custodians are
all under negotiations. By state law, a
preliminary budget must be approved
by the end of May so it can be avail-
able to the public before nal approval
by June 30.
The meeting is in the rst oor

Investment ofcers lawyer claims
gambling and alcohol addiction led
his client to steal from investors.
By EDWARD LEWIS
elewis@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE A former in-
vestment broker with PNC Bank was
sentenced Monday to 42 months in
federal prison on charges he swindled
more than $700,000 from the bank
and eight customers.
Nicholas Polito Jr., of Scranton, was
sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge
A. Richard Caputo on a charge of bank
fraud.
Pol i t os
attorneys,
P a t r i c k
Casey and
Lawrence
M o r a n ,
blamed ad-
dictions to
alcohol and
gambl i ng
for why
their client
stole in-
vestments
from eight el-
derly customers of PNC Bank.
Federal authorities said Polito was
working as an investment broker with
PNC Bank in Scranton when he stole
money from 2005 to November 2011.
U.S. Assistant Attorney John Gur-
ganus said PNC Bank repaid custom-
ers including interests for their
stolen investments. Polito repaid one
customer $42,070 prior to being sen-
tenced Monday and was ordered by
Caputo to pay PNC Bank restitution
of $673,349.
The nature and circumstances of
the offense is extremely serious, Ca-
puto told Polito, noting Polito violated
the trust he earned from his employ-
er and customers.
Everything we do every day is
trust, Caputo said. When you inject
money into the situation, it is magni-
ed. Seven or eight people would have
been wiped out if PNC Bank did not
compensate them.
I stole their money, Polito said be-
fore being sentenced. I lost their trust
in me. I want to personally apologize.
The guilt that I have will be with me
for the rest of my life.
Politos son, Nicholas III, said his
father sought help for alcohol and
gambling addictions prior to being
charged by the U.S. Attorneys Ofce
in October 2012.
Nicholas III, of Connecticut, said his
father had driven to his home in No-
vember 2011 to inform him about the
thefts, an act that Caputo appreciated.
That is the greatest lesson youll
ever give him by driving to Connecti-
cut and telling your son, Caputo told
Polito.
Caputo ordered Polito to begin serv-
ing his sentence on June 3.

WEST PITTSTON A
man serving a probation sen-
tence for texting an illicit pic-
ture to a 15-year-old girl was
arrested Monday on charges
he attempted to coerce two
girls to send him nude pic-
tures of themselves..
John David Saul, 19, last
known address as Luzerne
Street, was arraigned by Dis-
trict Judge Joseph Carmody
on three counts of criminal
use of communication facility,
two counts each of unlawful
contact with minors and cor-
ruption of minors, and one
count of dissemination of
sexual material. He was jailed
at the Luzerne County Cor-
rectional Facility for lack of
$20,000 bail.
Court records say Saul was
sentenced to two years pro-
bation in July on a charge of
dissemination of sexual ma-
terial when he texted a nude
picture of himself to a 15-year-
old girl. The girls father inter-
cepted the picture on her cell-
phone in October 2011, court
records say.
According to the latest
criminal complaint led by
Hanover Township police and
Luzerne County detectives:
A 13-year-old girl in Ha-
nover Township was using a
computer on April 1 to mes-
sage friends when Saul alleg-
edly joined the conversation,
telling the girl to send him
nude pictures of herself.
The girl kept telling Saul
No, at which time Saul told
the girl he was going to cave
in the head of her 16-year-
old male friend from Ashley,
whom they both know, if she
did not send him the pictures
he wanted.
The girls older sister told
Saul during the conversation
to leave them alone, calling
him a pervert and a creep,
the complaint says.
Investigators allege in the
complaint that a 14-year-old
girl reported Saul contacted
her on a messaging service,
asking her if she had a boy-
friend and to send three pic-
tures of herself to him.
The 16-year-old boy from
Ashley told investigators that
Saul may have retrieved the
girls contact information
from his cellphone.
Sauls girlfriend told in-
vestigators he is attracted to
young girls and it has caused
problems in their relation-
ship.

landscape shifts beneath him.
Were at a time when there
are changes across the board
in education, Kuhl said, Its a
welcome change in the era of ac-
countability. Unfortunately, one
of the byproducts is that there
are a lot of unknowns.
But Kuhl, 52, is hardly inex-
perienced, having weathered
plenty of changes in 27 years
working his way up from a so-
cial studies teacher. I think Im
ready for it, he said of the chal-
lenge.
Kuhls contract at Hanover
Area breaks new ground as well.
He agreed to pay part of his in-
surance premium, a rst in the
district, according to Business
Manager Tom Cipriano.
The contract runs for three
years with annual raises and a
starting salary of $115,000, Kuhl
said, adding that he is taking a
hit in one other area changed
by state law: Accumulated sick
days. Until recently, his roughly
250 sick days accumulated at
Wilkes-Barre Area could have
been carried over to Hanover
Area, but a new law limits him
to 30.
Im giving up about 220 un-
used sick days to take this job,
he said.
Kuhl said he had started con-
sidering the teaching profession
in high school, but didnt make
up his mind until he had nearly
completed his bachelors degree
in political science at Dickinson
College. His original plan was
to stay in the classrooms, or at
least near the students as a prin-
cipal, but ve years ago he was
given the opportunity to work
in Wilkes-Barres Central Ofce
and decided it was time for a
new challenge.
And while he received state
eligibility to work as an assis-
tant superintendent in 2000,
he didnt get the required pa-
perwork for the top job until
this year, bypassing the chance
to apply at Wilkes-Barre Area
when long-time Superintendent
Jeff Namey retired last year.
Hanover Twp. resident
Why skip a chance to head
the district of his alma mater yet
opt for a neighboring district?
For starters, his daughter gradu-
ated from Hanover Area, and he
lives in Hanover Township now.
Is the daughter going into
education?
Shes an on-air broadcaster
for a radio station covering the
Pittsburgh Pirates, Kuhl said.
Which could be a good thing for
him.
Ive been a Pirates fan all my
life, he laughed. That shows
good parenting, nudging her to
my favorite team.
So, special access to the press
box seats?
No, he laughed again. I
have to sit in the regular seats
with everybody else.

re marshal is investigating the cause.
EARLY MORNING FIRE DISPLACES
FAMILY OF FOUR
WASHINGTON With the
simplest of sentences, NBA
veteran Jason Collins set aside
years of worry and silence to
become the rst active player
in one of four major U.S. profes-
sional sports leagues to come
out as gay.
In a rst-person article posted
Monday on Sports Illustrateds
website, Collins begins: Im
a 34-year-old NBA center. Im
black. And Im gay.
Collins has played for six
teams in 12 seasons, most re-
cently as a reserve with the
Washington Wizards after a mid-
season trade from the Boston
Celtics. He is now a free agent
and wants to keep playing in the
NBA.
I didnt set out to be the rst
openly gay athlete playing in a
major American team sport. But
since I am, Imhappy to start the
conversation. I wish I wasnt the
kid in the classroom raising his
hand and saying, Im different,
Collins writes.
If I had my way, someone
else would have already done
this. Nobody has, which is why
Im raising my hand.
Saying he had endured years
of misery and gone to enormous
lengths to live a lie, Collins im-
mediately drew support for his
announcement from the White
House, former President Bill
Clinton, the NBA, current and
former teammates, and athletes
in other sports.
Los Angeles Lakers star Kobe
Bryant tweeted that he was
proud of Collins, writing: Dont
suffocate who u r because of the
ignorance of others, followed
by the words courage and
support.
Weve got to get rid of the
shame. Thats the main thing.
And Jasons going to help that.
Hes going to help give people
courage to come out, said Billie
Jean King, a member of the In-
ternational Tennis Hall of Fame
who conrmed she was gay after
being outed in the early 1980s.
I guarantee you hes going to
feel much lighter, much freer.
The truth does set you free,
theres no question. It doesnt
mean its easy. But it sets you
free, King said in a telephone
interview with The Associated
Press.
The Wizards, whose season
ended April 17, issued a state-
ment from President Ernie
Grunfeld: We are extremely
proud of Jason and support his
decision to live his life proudly
and openly.
DAMASCUS, Syria Syr-
ias prime minister narrowly
escaped an assassination at-
tempt in the heart of the heav-
ily defended capital Monday,
state media said, laying bare
the vulnerability of President
Bashar Assads regime.
The bombing, which killed
several other people, high-
lights an accelerating cam-
paign targeting government
ofcials, from mid-level civil
servants to
the highest
echelons of
the Syrian
regime.
S t a t e
t e l e v i -
sion said
Prime Min-
ister Wael
al-Halqi was not hurt in the
bombing, which struck his
convoy as it drove through the
posh Mazzeh neighborhood
home to embassies, gov-
ernment ofcials and business
elites with close ties to the
regime. Footage of the scene
broadcast on state TV showed
the charred hulks of cars and
the burnt-out shell of a bus in
a street littered with rubble.
The attack on al-Halqi punc-
tuated a series of attacks on
government ofcials in recent
weeks. On April 18, gunmen
shot dead the head of public
relations at the Ministry of So-
cial Affairs while he dined at a
Mazzeh restaurant. A day lat-
er, a Syrian army colonel was
killed in Damascus, and ve
days after that a bomb killed
an ofcial from the Electricity
Ministry.
Then there are the larger
attacks that have shaken the
regime to its core.
Last month, a suicide bomb-
ing at a Damascus mosque
killed Sheik Mohammad
Said Ramadan al-Buti, a lead-
ing Sunni Muslim preacher
and outspoken supporter of
Assad. That followed a blast
last July that killed four top
regime ofcials, including
Assads brother-in-law and the
defense minister, at the Syrian
national security building in
the capital.
Eager to assure the public
that al-Halqi survived Mon-
days attack, the state-run
Al-Ikhbariya station said the
prime minister attended a
regular weekly meeting with
an economic committee im-
mediately after the bombing.
The station broadcast video of
al-Halqi sitting at a table with
several other ofcials.
Later, in its evening news
program, state TV showed
video of al-Halqi denouncing
the attack, calling it a terror-
ist and criminal act and wish-
ing the wounded a speedy
recovery.
A government ofcial said
two people were killed and 11
wounded in the blast, while
the Britain-based Syrian Ob-
servatory for Human Rights
activist group put the death
toll at ve, including two of al-
Halqis bodyguards and one of
the drivers in his convoy.
The government ofcial
spoke to The Associated Press
on condition of anonymity be-
cause he was not authorized
to give ofcial statements to
reporters.
SAVAR, Bangladesh A
Bangladesh court on Monday
gave police 15 days to inter-
rogate the owner of a build-
ing that collapsed last week,
killing at least 382 people, as
rescuers used heavy machin-
ery to cut through the de-
stroyed structure after giving
up hopes of nding any more
survivors.
Mohammed Sohel Rana,
who was arrested Sunday as
he tried to ee to India, will
be held for questioning on
charges of negligence, ille-
gal construction and forcing
workers to join work. His
father, Abdul Khaleque, was
also arrested on suspicion of
aiding Rana to force people to
work in a dangerous building.
The illegally constructed,
8-story Rana Plaza collapsed
in a heap Wednesday morn-
ing as thousands of people
worked inside in ve garment
factories. About 2,500 survi-
vors have been accounted for.
Rana was brought to the
Dhaka Metropolitan Mag-
istrates Court in a bullet-
proof vest, and led away to
an unknown detention place
after the magistrate granted
a police request to hold him
longer before ling formal
charges. The crimes he is ac-
cused of carry a maximum
punishment of seven years.
More charges could be added
later.
The collapse was the
deadliest disaster to hit Ban-
gladeshs garment industry,
which is worth $20 billion
annually and supplies global
retailers.
In renewed anger against
conditions in garment facto-
ries a mainstay of Bangla-
deshs economy hundreds
of workers poured into the
streets in the Dhaka suburb
of Ashulia and set re to
an ambulance Monday, the
Independent TV network
reported. They also tried to
set re to a factory, it said.
Authorities shut down all gar-
ment factories in the Ashulia
and Gazipur industrial sub-
urbs, including one that had
reportedly developed cracks
and was evacuated earlier.
Volunteers, army person-
nel and reghters have
worked around the clock
since Wednesday, mostly
using their hands and light
equipment to pull out sur-
vivors. Around midnight
Sunday, authorities deployed
hydraulic cranes and heavy
cutting machines to break up
the massive slabs of concrete
into manageable pieces that
could be lifted away.

LOS ANGELES
Jackson suit trial begins
Michael Jacksons family and friends
knew he was addicted to prescription
medications, but the only ones who
refused to acknowledge it were the
promoters of his ill-fated nal series
of comeback concerts, an attorney
for the singers mother told a jury on
Monday.
Lawyer Brian Panish traced Jack-
sons addiction in opening statements
during the trial of a wrongful death
lawsuit against concert giant AEG
Live, telling jurors the company ig-
nored numerous warning signs about
the singers health in his nal months.
Panish told the jury of six men and
six women that it would ultimately
have to decide whether Jacksons
mother and his three children deserve
compensation for AEGs conduct.
Millions, possibly billions, of dollars
are at stake, but Panish did not give a
suggested damage gure in his open-
ing remarks.
Katherine Jackson sued the com-
pany in September 2010.
WASHINGTON
Transportation head tapped
President Barack Obama renewed
his pitch for investment in American
infrastructure on Monday as he named
Anthony Foxx, mayor of Charlotte,
N.C., to serve as his next transporta-
tion secretary.
Obama called Foxx one of the
most effective mayors in the country
because of the citys investments in
transportation and other projects that
have boosted the local economy.
While Foxx has been in ofce, the
city has broken ground on a new
streetcar project for the downtown
area, extended its light rail system and
expanded the Charlotte airport.
All of that has not only helped to
create new jobs, it has helped Char-
lotte become more attractive to busi-
ness, Obama said, introducing Foxx
as his nominee during a ceremony in
the East Room on Monday afternoon.
His nomination is subject to Senate
conrmation.
BAGHDAD
Baghdad bombings escalate
A wave of car bomb blasts tore
through Shiite areas south of Baghdad
on Monday, killing at least 36 and
deepening fears that Iraq is rapidly
spiraling back out of control.
The attacks capped a week of
turmoil that is posing the greatest test
of Iraqs stability since U.S. troops left
the country in late 2011. At least 218
people have been killed in attacks and
battles between gunmen and security
forces that began with clashes at a
Sunni protest camp in northern Iraq
last Tuesday.
The unrest follows four months
of widespread protests among Iraqs

Court makes suicide ruling
A paralyzed Irish woman who wants
to die cannot legally commit suicide
with her partners help, Irelands Su-
preme Court ruled Monday.
The seven-judge court said nothing
in the countrys Catholic-inuenced
1937 constitution could authorize the
deliberate taking of a life on humanitar-
ian grounds. It said lawmakers could
pass such a law to permit 59-year-old
Marie Fleming to die at a time of her
choosing, but no such statute existed
yet.
Fleming, a former University College
Dublin lecturer who is unable to move
from the neck down because of ad-
vanced multiple sclerosis, testied that
her life had been reduced to irrevers-
ible agony and that she feared choking
to death because she couldnt swallow.

camp, according to her father, Mumumed. East African ofcials say a U.S. funded agencys report, to be released this
week, gives the highest death toll yet from Somalias 2011 famine, estimating that 260,000 people died - more than
double earlier estimates.

NAIROBI, Kenya The
2011 Somali famine killed
an estimated 260,000 people,
half of them age 5 and under,
according to a new report to
be published this week that
more than doubles previous
death toll estimates, ofcials
told The Associated Press.
The aid community be-
lieves that tens of thousands
of people died needlessly be-
cause the international com-
munity was slow to respond
to early signs of approaching
hunger in East Africa in late
2010 and early 2011.
The toll was also exacer-
bated by extremist militants
from al-Shabab who banned
food aid deliveries to the areas
of south-central Somalia that
they controlled. Those same
militants have also made the
task of guring out an accu-
rate death toll extremely dif-
cult.
A Western ofcial briefed
on the newreport the most
authoritative to date told
AP that it says 260,000 people
died, and that half the victims
were 5 and under. Two other
international ofcials briefed
on the report conrmed that
the toll was in the quarter-mil-
lion range. All three insisted
they not be identied because
they were not authorized to
share the reports contents
before it is ofcially released.
The report is being made
public Thursday by FEWS-
NET, a famine early warning
system funded by the U.S.
governments aid arm USAID,
and by the Food Security and
Nutrition Analysis Unit - So-
malia, which is funded by the
U.S. and Britain.
A previous estimate by
the U.K. government said
between 50,000 and 100,000
people died in the famine.
The new report used research
conducted by specialists ex-
perienced in estimating death
tolls in emergencies and di-
sasters. Those researchers
relied on food and mortality
data compiled by the Food Se-
curity and Nutrition Analysis
Unit.
Because of the imprecise
nature of the data available,
the toll remains only an esti-
mate.
When asked about the re-
port, Somalia Health Minister
Maryan Qasim Ahmed said
she didnt want to comment
until she read it because of
questions she had about the
accuracy of the gures.

WILKES-BARRE A
Hughestown borough coun-
cilwoman has led a request
in Luzerne County Court
to reduce the number of
Hughestown Borough Coun-
cil members from seven to
ve.
Marie Griglock, Rock Street,
led the petition Monday, ask-
ing a county judge to approve
the reduction.
Griglock secured 83 signa-
tures from registered voters
in support of the move. Her
petition says the downsizing
would provide cost savings
and ensure a more efcient
government without affecting
the quality of representation of
the community.
Griglocks petition cites the
population of Hughestown as
1,600, according to the last U.S.
Census.
The councilwoman, elected
in 2009, could not be reached
for comment Monday.
She had previously worked as
the borough secretary for seven
years.
Hughestown council mem-
bers now include: Griglock,
Wayne Quick, Phil Falvo, Ed-
ward Strubeck, Paul Murphy,
Barbara Gatto and Bob Gable.
Paul Hindmarsh in the bor-
oughs mayor.
A county judge has not yet
scheduled a hearing date for
the petition.
Once a hearing is sched-
uled, interested parties will
present their sides.
A judge would then make a
ruling.
Typically, members who
are serving on council would
be permitted to nish their
terms. Any seats expiring by
the next election date would
not be relled or put on the
ballot.
Last year, West Wyoming
and Laurel Run boroughs re-
duced the number of their
council seats, as did Dallas
and Luzerne boroughs in
2011.

Marie Griglock les petition
in county court to cut council
from seven to ve members.

Pa. Senateleader urges openrecords rework
HARRISBURG A new
proposal to make changes to
Pennsylvanias Right-to-Know
Lawwould include limits on ac-
cess by inmates and authorize
the Ofce of Open Records to
review documents in private to
see if they should be released.
The 22-page bill introduced
Friday by Sen. Dominic Pi-
leggi of Delaware County, the
Republican oor leader, would
permit agencies to impose fees
for commercial use of records,
allow government to block un-
duly burdensome requests and
exempt volunteer re and res-
cue companies.
The proposal represents a
rst step as lawmakers con-
sider revisions to the 2008 law
that controls the publics ability
to get government information
and records.
The Pennsylvania NewsMe-
dia Association supports some
elements but has concerns
about others, said Deb Mussel-
man, a lobbyist with the orga-
nization.
There are some portions
of the bill that, if they are not
changed, would cause us to re-
ally have to sit down and think
seriously about our position,
Musselman said. But we are
hopeful we can make our case
about the things we want to
change.
Pileggis bill would not apply
the law fully to Pennsylvanias
four state-related universities
Penn State, the University of
Pittsburgh, Lincoln and Temple
but that provision, which
has some support in the Leg-
islature, could be added as an
amendment. The campus po-
lice of the state-related schools,
however, are added to the agen-
cies that must comply with the
law under the current draft.
The Pennsylvania Interscho-
lastic Athletic Association was
already covered under the law,
but it would be moved to anoth-
er section for technical reasons.
Inmates would be limited to
a list of records, most of which
pertain to the inmate directly,
including his or her criminal
records, work records and dis-
ciplinary records.
Pileggi said inmates account
for a signicant portion of
requests under the Right-to-
Know Law, requests that he
said have questionable public
benet.
Lawmakers mull revisions to
law that controls publics
ability to get government info.

WILKES-BARRE A New
Jersey man was sentenced
Monday to three years, seven
months to seven and a half
years in state prison for robbin
a local convenient store at
gunpoint.
Anthony Tims, 25, of New-
ark, N.J., was sentenced on a
charge of robbery by county
Judge David Lupas. Tims
pleaded guilty in March. He re-
ceived 556 days credit for time
already served in prison and
must pay $300 in restitution to
the Uni-Mart in Wyoming.
According to court pa-
pers, on Oct. 20, 2011, Tims
entered the Uni-Mart store on
Wyoming Avenue in Wyoming,
pointed a gun at the clerk and
demanded money.
WILKES-BARRE A
Dunmore man pleaded guilty
Monday to a drug-related
charge stemming from a May
2011 incident.
Sir Anthony Johnson, 31,
of 3rd Street, entered the plea
to a charge of delivery of a
controlled substance. County
Judge Michael Vough said
Johnson, who was scheduled
to stand trial in the case this
week, will be sentenced on
July 1.
According to court papers,
on May 23, 2011, Johnson,
also known as Miami, alleg-
edly sold suspected heroin to a
police informant in Exeter.
Johnson is also awaiting
trial in another case stemming
from May 19, 2011, where po-
lice say he again sold suspect-
ed heroin to a police informant
in Avoca. Vough said that case
will be addressed at the July
sentencing hearing.
Assistant District Attorney
Tom Hogans prosecuted the
case. Johnson was represented
by attorney Allyson Kacmar-
ski.
WILKES-BARRE A
Berwick man charged with his
role in making drugs along the
Susquehanna River pleaded
guilty Monday to related
charges.
David Fausnaught, 52,
entered the plea to charges
of possession an ingredient
of methamphetamine and
criminal conspiracy. County
Judge Fred Pierantoni said
Fausnaught will be sentenced
on June 27.
Fausnaught had previously
pleaded guilty to a related
charge, but withdrew that
guilty plea in September and
requested a jury trial. Faus-
naught was scheduled to stand
trial this week on nine related
charges.
According to court papers,
Fausnaught was one of three
men observed by a Fish and
Boat Commission ofcer pass-
ing a plastic bottle back and
forth among them on July 23,
2011.
A bag and empty pseudo-
ephedrine packages were also
found near the group. Police
said that in the bag they found
batteries, pseudoephedrine,
camping fuel, coffee lters,
drain cleaner, funnels, tubing,
gloves and a number of other
items police say are commonly
used in manufacturing meth-
amphetamine.
Police later located a receipt
that indicated Fausnaught pur-
chased medications from the
Walmart store in Bloomsburg.
The medications are com-
monly used to manufacture
methamphetamine.

W-B Twp. ofcials discuss
sewer line use agreement
WILKES-BARRE TWP.
- Township attorney Bruce
Phillips discussed a proposed
agreement with Hanover
Township for the use of its
sewage lines.
According to township of-
cials, the new agreement is
necessary to satisfy the in-
creased sewer line use from a
planned development near the
Wyoming Valley Mall, which
will feature a Longhorn Steak-
house, Chik-Fil-A and a Buffalo
Wild Wings.
Phillips cautioned that the
existing Hanover Township
sewer lines are outdated and
breached in some areas and
are in need of $400,000 in
repairs. He stressed that Ha-
nover Township plans to apply
for grants to cover some or all
of the cost of the work and that
Wilkes-Barre Township will be
obligated for between $80,000
and $138,000, depending on
grant money received plus a
pro-rata share of maintenance
costs for the life of the agree-
ment.
Any initial obligation out-
lined in the agreement would
be payable over a three- to four-
year period, stressed Phillips.
Phillips added that revenue
generated by the proposed res-
taurant development will far
surpass any money spent by
Wilkes-Barre Township to ac-
commodate the increased sew-
age demand.
Increased growth in area and
use of lines prompts proposal
with Hanover Twp.

Lyme disease cases on rise in western Pa.
TARENTUM (AP) Penn-
sylvania leads the nation in
conrmed cases of Lyme dis-
ease, with more than 4,700 in
2011, according to the federal
Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention.
And the number of con-
rmed cases in the southwest-
ern part of the state spiked by
75 percent from 315 cases
in 2010 to 552 cases in 2011,
according to Kait Gillis, depu-
ty press secretary for the state
Department of Health.
Its hard to speculate as to
why the increase occurred in
southwestern part of the state,
she said. Several factors can
lead to a jump in the number
of reported cases, she said, in-
cluding increased awareness,
increased testing and outdoor
temperatures.

Two public hearings on PPLs
57-mile Northeast-Pocono Re-
liability Project will be held
Thursday at the Thornhurst re-
house.
Residents along that corridor
including those living in the
Luzerne County townships of
Bear Creek and Buck, through
the North Pocono portion of
Lackawanna County and into the
mostly rural Pocono Mountain
county of Wayne, are expected
to voice their displeasure for
how the line, with its 145-foot-
tall steel poles, will impact the
bucolic scenery.
The Pennsylvania Public Util-
ity Commission has scheduled
hearings for public comment
Thursday on the proposal by
Allentown-based PPL Electric
Utilities Corp.
The hearing will focus on
construction of the 230-kilovolt
transmission line through por-
tions of Luzerne, Lackawanna,
Wayne and Monroe counties and
on the utilitys application to use
eminent domain as part of the
project.
Hearings will be conducted by
Administrative Law Judge David
A. Salapa at 2 and 6 p.m., at the
Thornhurst Volunteer Fire Co.,
351 Old River Road, Thornhurst
Township, Lackawanna County.
Salapa will listen to the com-
panys application and reasons
for the project and the eminent
domain requests. He also will
listen to public comment in sup-
port or opposition to the project.
Denise McCracken, a PUC
spokeswoman, said Salapa will
use the hearings as the basis for
his ndings and will make a rec-
ommendation to the PUC. The
PUC, at a future public meeting,
will use his recommendation
and either vote to afrm it, re-
ject it or modify it and vote on
the amended decision.
On Dec. 28, 2012, PPL led
applications and petitions seek-
ing PUC approval for the siting
and construction of the project
that starts at an existing substa-
tion in Jenkins Township and
ends near Paupacken Lake in
east central Wayne County. Its
application says that it wants
construction to begin in spring
2014 for an in-service date of No-
vember 2017.
Throughout the route, there
are hundreds of properties or
right-of-ways that the utility has
sought to buy from landowners.
Most have sold or eased land
for the project, but PPL was un-
able to reach agreement with 37
landowners to secure the right-
of-ways and easements, accord-
ing to the utilitys ling with the
PUC.
Seven of them are in Luzerne
County.
In addition to the main line

PPL is also seeking approval for
11.3 miles of 138/69-kilovolt
line connecting two proposed
substations in Covington Town-
ship in Lackawanna County and
Buck Township.
Several residents have already
chimed in with their opposition
to the project, which they said
would hurt the characteristic of
their surroundings.
We are proud of the unde-
veloped rural character of our
town, wrote Fred Ahlborn, of
Thornhurst, in a letter voicing
not only his opposition but also
urging the commission to see
and appreciate rst hand as we
try to defend our way of life and
explain the irreversible damage
we feel this line through our
lands will impose.
State Sen. John Blake, D-Arch-
bald, said that while he under-
stands the need PPL has to do
this project, he also has concerns
about the impact it could have
on the communities it serves.
It is my fervent hope that mu-
tual agreement can be found to
assure that the project impose
the least amount of adverse im-
pact on local citizens and prop-
erty owners while achieving the
necessary reliability and opti-
mum electrical service to North-
eastern PA, Blake said.

How about defending
rights for his species?
W
e hear a lot about rights. Nowadays,
everybody wants their rights. They
want our government to pass laws to
protect and defend their rights.
Minorities want their rights. If they
dont get their rights, theyll call you a
bigot.
Gays, lesbians, bisexuals, and transgen-
ders all want their rights. Anyone who
doesnt grant their rights is labeled a ho-
mophobe. Illegal immigrants and foreign-
ers all want their rights. If they dont get
the rights they think theyre entitled to,
you get labeled a xenophobe.
Im just wondering if theres a politi-
cian out there who will work as hard to
protect my rights; my rights as a white
middle-aged, English-speaking, Bible-
believing Christian, heterosexual male.
Maybe I shouldnt be so naive as to
expect too much from our local-yokel
elected representatives.Maybe I would
have to consider packing up and moving
to the Bible belt or to the Republic of
Texas. Then maybe I could meet people
of my species who are actually concerned
for the future of this country and for
preserving and defending our American
heritage.

OTHER OPINION: SAFETY
Will public allow
Dreamliner to fly?
B
oEINGs 787 Dream-
liner was cleared to y
last Thursday. The Fed-
eral Aviation Adminis-
tration lifted a ban on passenger
ights that it imposed in January
after two battery malfunctions in
the newjets raised serious safety
concerns.
The FAA approved Boeings
plan to modify the 787 battery
system and ights are expected
to resume within days.
so, the FAA says the Dream-
liner is safe. But will travelers
buy that? We think so. Heres
why.
The innovative, fuel-efcient
Dreamliner ran into trouble be-
cause it is the rst passenger
jet to make extensive use of
lithium-ion batteries. Those bat-
teries, widely used in laptops
and cellphones, have a history of
occasionally overheating. When
Boeing designed the aircraft,
the company and its suppliers
devised a series of tests to en-
sure the battery system would
be safe for ight. The tests, done
under the oversight of the FAA,
suggested the planes could go
for millions of hours without en-
countering any battery problem.
In practice, however, prob-
lems occurred not long after the
Dreamliner entered service. An
empty plane parked on a runway
in Boston lled with smoke. A
plane full of passengers in Japan
had to be evacuated.
so it was back to the drawing
board. Boeing, its suppliers, fed-
eral regulators and their global
counterparts developed new
tests to gure out what caused
the batteries to fail. Boeing hired
battery experts from outside the
aviation industry to evaluate the
testing procedures and propose
solutions.
The exact cause of the battery
failures never was identied.
When complex systems fail, it
can be difcult to pinpoint a
simple reason. Boeing, though,
developed a way to protect the
passengers and the planes.
The company redesigned the
battery system so if one cell
short-circuited, others would
not. short circuits are the most
likely reason that an undamaged
battery would overheat. Boeing
also added high-grade insulation
between cells so overheating in
one part of the battery would not
spread to other parts.
Perhaps most important from
the passenger standpoint, Boe-
ing encased the battery system
in a sealed steel enclosure, vent-
ed outside the aircraft. so even
if a battery failure occurred, the
aircraft wouldnt be damaged.
smoke or re would not spread.
As part of the testing, accord-
ing to news reports, Boeing went
so far as to simulate explosions
inside the steel case. The enclo-
sure is so secure that passengers
would not notice if a failure oc-
curred. These incidents were
alarming, but no one was hurt.
The credibility of Boeing, the
FAA and the airlines that y the
Dreamliner is on the line. A bat-
tery problem that damaged a
plane or created a safety threat
would be a huge blow to the air-
line industry.

Mellow shows folly
of name game
T
HREE Lackawanna
County colleges have
seen the light and will
remove disgraced for-
mer sen. Robert J. Mellows
name from buildings that carry
it.
Will other, similarly aficted
locations follow suit?
Lackawanna College an-
nounced the move rst, with
Marywood University (motto:
Lead on) and Keystone Col-
lege following suit within a few
hours. There was little fanfare, in
keeping with an action designed
to eliminate what is now an ex-
ceedingly awkward tribute.
such moves point to the folly
of naming something for a per-
son whos in elected ofce
even for a non-politician, whos
still alive. You never know what
might happen, what might
surface. Look at Joe Paterno,
for years a saint, now widely
thought to have enabled a serial
child molester.
In Mellows case, the long-
time senator who also served as
senate Democratic leader plead-
ed guilty last year to conspiracy
to commit mail fraud. He admit-
ted using taxpayer-paid senate
staffers for political campaign
work, and ling a fraudulent tax
return underreporting the prot
he made when he sold a building
that had housed his senate dis-
trict ofce. This year, while sit-
ting in a federal prison in south
Carolina, Mellow was charged
with corrupt organizations,
bribery, bid-rigging, conspiracy
and other offenses related to the
state Turnpike Commission.
Elected ofcials rely heavily
on donations to get re-elected.
The question of an unseemly
quid pro quo is ever-present.
By no means must institutions
and communities stop naming
buildings or public places in
honor of distinguished, worthy
individuals.
But let them stick to well-vet-
ted, outstanding teachers, scien-
tists and war heroes.
Preferably dead.

qUOTE OF THE DAY
The building has minor damages. There is nothing
serious.
Mohammed Sohel Rana
The owner of a Bangladesh building that collapsed, reacting to inspectors
recommendations that the building be closed a day before its collapse killed
at least 377 people
HERE ARE THREE things the obama
administration has done that you probably
didnt know about:
Ever struggle with those accordion-style
rubber sleeves on nozzles at the gas sta-
tion? The sleeve technically a vapor
recovery nozzle was required by the
Environmental Protection Agency to keep
gasoline vapors from leaking into the air.
But most cars and trucks now have tech-
nology that does the job better, so last year
the EPA abolished the nozzle requirement.
Because each sleeve-equipped nozzle can
cost as much as $300, the change will save
gas stations thousands of dollars.
Ever apply for nancial aid for a child
heading for college? Until 2010, the ap-
plication form the Free Application for
Federal student Aid, or FAFsA was a
parents nightmare. (I write from personal
experience here.) It required digging up
information from multiple sources, and
the complexity of the task discouraged
thousands of families from applying for
aid. so the Department of Education got
to work and simplied the form. some
applicants can now complete much of it
automatically, importing online data from
their tax returns. The new FAFsA still
asks too many questions 116, compared
to 127 on the old one but its a big
improvement.
Ever come back from a trip overseas,
only to nd yourself stuck in a horrify-
ingly long line at immigration control?
Now theres a program called Global Entry
that allows frequent travelers to undergo
a pre-screening process, skip the line and
run their passports through an automated
kiosk, like self-checkout at the supermar-
ket. This program actually started under
George W. Bush, but the obama adminis-
tration has expanded it big time. Ive tried
it, and it works.
All three stories are examples of a little-
recognized push by the obama administra-
tion to streamline federal regulations.
Until last year, the effort was led by Cass
sunstein, who ran an obscure corner of the
Washington bureaucracy called the ofce
of Information and Regulatory Affairs.
Now a professor at Harvard Law school,
sunstein is an evangelist for simplica-
tion and consumer-friendly language and
design.
one of his proudest accomplishments,
he says, was nudging the Department of
Agriculture toward replacing its old food
pyramid with a simpler food plate show-
ing that half your diet should be fruits and
vegetables. He presided over big-ticket
items too, including a rule to standardize
safety warning labels that could save em-
ployers as much as $2.5 billion, and a rule
to simplify doctors and nurses paperwork
that could save hospitals and medical
practices as much as $5 billion.
My job was helping people gure out
how government can make peoples lives
better, and how we can eliminate red tape
and complexity, he told me.
In his recent book, simpler: The Future
of Government, sunstein points to a
surprising statistic: In his rst four years,
he says, obama issued fewer new federal
regulations than any of the four presidents
who came before him, including Ronald
Reagan. obamas revocation of hundreds
of outmoded rules produced savings for
government, business and consumers that
will add up to billions, he says.
But wait, I hear you say. Isnt obama
a big-government Democrat? Isnt he
responsible for two of the biggest expan-
sions of federal power in recent history,
the 2010 Affordable Care Act (more often
known as obamacare) and the 2011 Finan-
cial Regulatory Responsibility Act?
The answer, of course, is yes: obama is
a big-government man, and so is sunstein.
They dont hide their belief in an activ-
ist federal government; they just want to
make it smarter and more effective.
sunstein is frustrated that the ad-
ministration hasnt gotten credit for its
regulation-trimming efforts. And indeed,
conservative critics dispute his numbers,
saying that even if the number of regula-
tions issued has declined, the number of
rules with a major economic impact has
risen.
Even those who admire the streamlin-
ing, though, say it hasnt gotten much rec-
ognition. They havent advertised it very
well, said Elaine Kamarck, who ran the
high-visibility reinventing government
campaign of the Clinton administration
and is now at the Brookings Institution.
No one knows that theyve even been
trying, let alone that theyve accomplished
anything.
And that, she says, makes no sense,
especially for a Democrat. If no one
knows about your efforts, she says, then
the deep-seated cynicism Americans
have about the efciency of government
will constrain the efforts of any activist
president.
Public opinion polls bear her out. Under
Clinton, the percentage of Americans who
said they trusted the federal government
to do the right thing gradually rose. Under
obama, its plummeted. A Pew Research
Poll last month found that only 28 percent
of Americans said they had a favorable
view of the federal government, down
from 42 percent in 2009, obamas rst year
in ofce. Even a majority of Democrats
said they had an unfavorable view of the
federal government.
For an administration thats trying to
implement an ambitious new healthcare
program as one of its top priorities, those
are daunting numbers.
so heres an assignment for obamas
new director of the ofce of Management
and Budget, sylvia Mathews Burwell, a
Clinton administration veteran so univer-
sally respected that she won unanimous
conrmation in the senate last week: Its
time to relaunch your boss government
reform agenda. Its time to hire someone
to succeed sunstein, whose job has been
vacant for eight months. Its time to renew
obamas regulatory look-back, a program
that nominated 580 useless regulations for
the scrapheap and actually dumped a lot
of them.
And when youve done all that, its time
to make sure the American public knows
about it.

Obamas ght to streamline federal regulations

will add up to billions, he says.
reduce the number of people
who have to go out of the area.
When somebody goes out of
the area for treatment, its much
more difcult for the families
to participate in care and for
case management services to
be involved, Schor said.
People who suffer from acute
psychiatric disorders and as-
sociated behaviors many times
end up being picked up by po-
lice and taken to local emergen-
cy rooms for evaluations. Many
times they require psychiatric
evaluations, and when com-
pleted, the task of trying to nd
an appropriate setting begins,
he said.
Where are they going to
go and how fast? You dont
want people who are suffering
like that to languish in an ER.
And so many times, people of
that level of acuity do languish
there, which is bad for them
and bad for the other patients
trying to get medical care be-
cause they can be disruptive,
Schor said.
So in addition to helping pa-
tients receive treatment locally,
the new unit also will help to
transition them out of emer-
gency rooms and into an appro-
priate setting faster.
Schor said the incidence of
psychiatric disorders hasnt
changed much, but there is a
heightened visibility, given re-
cent mass shootings and other
events in the news. There are
not many people who dont
know a family member of their
family or a friends family who
isnt affected in some way by
mental illness or substance
abuse, he said.
In addition to the new unit,
further renovations completed
across the hospital create a
more welcoming environment
and reorganize the space to bet-
ter support counseling, patient
services and administrative
functions, according to a state-
ment.
This expansion enhances
our ability to care for patients
with the most complex, acute
behavioral health concerns,
said Dr. David Liskov, medical
director of First Hospital.
Cornelio Catena, CEO of
Commonwealth Health, noted
that the facility is the former
Nesbitt Hospital, which was
founded 30 years ago. The 700
employees who make up First
Hospital and the systems be-
havioral health services treat
about 10,000 patients a year,
4,000 of them at First Hospital.
We are exceedingly proud of
the great job they do, he said.
Kingston Mayor James Hag-
gerty said the facility is im-
portant to the community and
he is delighted to see it used
in a productive way, in an im-
portant way and in a way that
serves a great community and a
great area here in the Wyoming
Valley.
Schor thanked Haggerty and
the Kingston community for
opening its arms and support-
ing our campus and (helping
it) and this city (to be) known
as a place that people come
for healing and recovery and
a place where they come to
change the course and direc-
tion of their lives in a positive
way.
The 20-bed unit is just the
beginning of expansion and
support of behavioral health
services by Community Health
Systems and area groups that
support the programs, Schor
said. He and staff are excited
that the areas rst regional cri-
sis triage center for psychiatry
will be opening in Wilkes-Barre
General Hospitals former
emergency rooms, probably
sometime this summer.
Finally, he thanked the em-
ployees and staff who dedi-
cated their lives and efforts to
treating the most vulnerable
members of our community
and for supporting our organi-
zation, many of them for their
entire careers.

hand and I heard a thud.
I looked to where Kevin
was and I couldnt nd Kevin.
I thought Kevin was stuck on
the car and.. Stephen Miller
said.
Stephen Miller said he chased
after a red vehicle that turned
right onto North Main Street.
He was unable to obtain the li-
cense plate because the red car
was traveling too fast.
It never slowed down, he
said. I never saw the car com-
ing.
Critical evidence that alleg-
edly places Letteer in the area
of North Street came from FBI
Special Agent Larry White-
head, who analyzed Letters cell
phone records of Dec. 21.
The following is Whiteheads
analysis of Letteers locations:
7:46 p.m. Call placed with Let-
teers cellphone processed
through cell tower in Pittston.
7:50 p.m., 8:46 p.m. and
10:39 p.m. Three calls with
Letteers cellphone processed
through cell tower in West Wyo-
ming where investigators claim
Letteer attended a party.
10:39 p.m. Call placed with
Letteers cellphone processed
through cell tower in area of
Wilkes-Barre and Plains Town-
ship border near the North
Cross Valley Expressway.
10:54 p.m. A Hawkeye sur-
veillance camera records a red
Pontiac turning onto North
Street from North River Street,
Wilkes-Barre.
10:55 p.m. A 36-second call
from Letteers cellphone pro-
cessed through cell tower on
the campus of Kings College,
Wilkes-Barre.
10:56 p.m. A 32-second call
from Letteers cellphone pro-
cessed through cell tower on
top of the PNC Bank Building,
North Franklin and West Mar-
ket streets, Wilkes-Barre.
10:57 p.m. A call 10-min-
ute, 47 seconds in length from
Letteers cellphone processed
through cell tower on the cam-
pus of Kings College.
City police Detective Charles
Jensen said other Hawkeye and
private surveillance cameras re-
corded the red Pontiac traveling
on North, North Main and Jack-
son streets, and North Pennsyl-
vania Avenue to Conyngham
Avenue minutes after Kevin
Miller was struck.
Jensen said Letteers Pontiac
was seized on Jan. 4, after Al-
lyson Howey, of East Strouds-
burg, spoke to investigators ear-
lier that day.
Howey testied that Letteers
girlfriend, Abigail Tarver, con-
ded to her on Dec. 23 that Let-
teer may have struck and killed
a boy in Wilkes-Barre.
Letteer remains free on
$200,000 bail. He is scheduled
to be formally arraigned in
county court on July 11.

LETTEER
sistant director of the Quinnip-
iac University Polling Institute.
Fortunately for Gov. Corbett,
the election is not today. He
has 18 months to turn things
around.
The polling institute has
conducted monthly polls in
Pennsylvania, and while differ-
ent questions are asked each
month, one constant has been
the approval/disapproval of the
rst-term governor from Allegh-
eny County who knocked off
Democrat and fellow Allegheny
County politician Dan Onorato
in 2010.
For the fourth consecutive
survey, those polled said they
disapproved of the job Corbett
is doing. This time the margin
was 47 percent disapprove, 38
percent approve.
From April 19-24, Quinnipiac
University surveyed 1,235 reg-
istered voters with a margin of
error of plus or minus 2.8 per-
centage points.
Live interviewers called land
lines and cellphones. The sur-
vey includes 547 Democrats
with a margin of error of +/- 4.2
percentage points.
A closer look at the data
from the poll shows Corbett re-
ally struggling when it comes to
the female vote. When asked if
Corbett deserves re-election, 54
percent of women said no, com-
pared to 27 percent that believe
he does. Overall, men, women,
Democrats and Independents
all said no to four more years.
Republicans
favor re-elec-
tion 60-25
percent.

Hanger, Myers, Schwartz and
Wolf have all declared, the rest
have not.
The poll conducted by Quin-
nipiac asked registered Demo-
cratic voters to choose from
a list of seven Democrats re-
garding whom theyd vote for.
The results showed Sestak and
Schwartz receiving 15 percent
of the support, Wolf and Mc-
Cord getting 3 percent and the
other three candidates regis-
tering less than 3 percent. The
remaining 59 percent were un-
decided.
Pennsylvania voters, even
Democrats, dont know much
about the challengers in the
2014 governors race, Malloy
said.
Right now, voters are doing
their ABCs - Anyone But Cor-
bett.
All 1,235 people polled were
asked how theyd vote when it
came to Corbett versus one of
the Democrats.
When matched up head to
head against Corbett, Sestak,
Schwartz and McCord all fared
very well: Sestak topped Cor-
bett 48-34 percent, including 45
- 29 percent among independent
voters; Schwartz is ahead 47-34
percent, including 45 - 27 per-
cent among independent voters;
and McCord is up 44-35 percent,
including 40 - 30 percent among
independent voters.

The 34-year-old noncommis-

learned to rappel from a 34-foot

strenuous obstacle course.
Robinson was wounded dur-
ing an attack during a major
military operation in 2006.
Robinson said his traumatic
injury wasnt going to prevent
him from meeting some of the
Armys toughest standards.
The 101st Airborne Division,
unlike other airborne units that
use planes, uses helicopters to
quickly drop troops into combat
and move equipment around
the battleeld.
Each day of the course begins
with running a couple of miles
and troops are expected to car-
ry a 35-pound ruck sack as they
complete their tasks.
His instructor, Sgt. 1st Class
Matthew Connolly, said at rst
there was concern whether he
was going to make it through
when a piston in his leg stopped
working during the obstacle
course.
He got down and xed it,
reattempted the obstacle and
went back on, said Connolly.
Capt. Greg Gibson, an Army
nurse with Robinsons 2nd Bri-

experience treating amputees,
attitude and will are critical to

BROOKLYN, N.Y. Flourishing in-
stead of fading in the fourth quarter,
the Brooklyn Nets extended their rst
season in Brooklyn.
They need one more victory to set
up the biggest game here yet.
Brook Lopez had 28 points and 10
rebounds, Deron Williams added 23
points and 10 assists, and the Nets
beat Chicago 110-91 on Monday night,
cutting the Bulls lead to 3-2 in their
rst-round playoff se-
ries.
Recovering from
a collapse two days
earlier that sent them
home on the brink of
elimination instead
of tied, the Nets battered the Bulls on
the boards and forced Chicago into
being the team that wilted down the
stretch.
We came out very aggressive, as we
have the past few games. I think the
difference was just we sustained it for
essentially a full 48 minutes tonight,
Lopez said.
Andray Blatche scored 10 of his 13
points in the fourth quarter and Ger-
ald Wallace had consecutive baskets in
the nishing surge as the Nets nally
pulled away in a game they led most of
the way, but never by too much.
Two days after rallying for a 142-134
triple-overtime victory, the Bulls were
outscored 15-1 at the nish and failed
to set up a second-round series with
Miami. Instead they will host Game 6
on Thursday.
It was just a lot of mental mistakes.
A lot of mental mistakes, Bulls center
Joakim Noah said. I feel like we had
our chances. We beat ourselves. They
played well. Youve got to give credit
when credit is due and now its on us
to come back and be ready for Game
6.

title at Marion in June.
Simpson ready to defend U.S. Open at Merion
By DAN GELSTON
AP Sports Writer
ARDMORE Webb Simpson
already played for an amateur
championship at Merion.
Hes ready to win a major there
on his next visit.
Simpson is one of the few ac-
tive PGA Tour members to play
at the suburban Philadelphia
course, competing at the 2005
U.S. Amateur. When he returns
in June, Simpson has a grander
goal in mind for his return visit
than nishing 72: Simpson wants
to defend his U.S. Open champi-
onship.
I tell people all the time it is
my favorite golf course in the
world, he said Monday. What it
demands out of the players is so
different than most golf courses,
and it seems like most golf cours-
es now are evolving to be bomb-
ers paradise. Every par-4 is 500
yards, and you hit a driver on ev-
ery hole. Merions the opposite.
The U.S. Open is set to return
in June to Merion Golf Club for
the rst time since 1981. With
good reason. The U.S. Open
at Merion will be the shortest
course for a major championship
in eight years.
The U.S. Open was played at
Merion in 1934, 1950, 1971 and
1981. Bobby Jones won the U.S.
Amateur in 1930 and tourna-
ments from the Curtis Cup to the
Walker Cup have all been played
at the course.
With a shorter course, birdies
could become more expected
over the weekend. USGA execu-
tive director Mike Davis said Mer-

Tebow Time in New York
over after Jets cut QB
The Associated Press
NEW YORK The possibil-
ities appeared endless for Tim
Tebow.
Here he was, perhaps the
most popular player in the
NFL, in New York as a mem-
ber of the Jets and maybe the
biggest thing to hit Broadway
since Joe Namath himself.
There were billboards out-
side the Lincoln Tunnel in New
Jersey welcoming Tebow, and
sandwiches named after him at
Manhattan delis. He also had
a legion of fans who followed
him because of his strong
Christian beliefs, and in New
York, he would be able to take
advantage of countless media
and marketing opportunities.
And then, it all went terribly
wrong.
Or, more like it, the whole
idea was completely awed
from the start. For Tebow. And
for the Jets.
Tebow was waived Mon-
day morning, the end of an
embarrassingly unsuccessful
one-season experiment in New
York that produced more hype
and headlines than production
on the eld. And it all ended
quietly, with a three-paragraph
news release.
Unfortunately, coach Rex
Ryan said in a statement,
things did not work out the
way we all had hoped.
It also left Tebows football
Bridge, Berwick take

NANTICOKE Some show-
downs dont live up to the bill-
ing. Like on Monday.
Berwick made sure the drama
zzled out quickly as it defeated
Nanticoke in a 8-1 Wyoming Val-
ley Conference interdivisional
softball game.
The Dawgs (7-2 Div. 2) led
7-0 after four innings thanks to
two-run doubles by Margaret
Bridge and Kylene Welsh. Welsh
and Courtney Hummel got Ber-
wick off to a good start with RBI
singles in the rst inning. Abby
Remley had an RBI single in the
third.
Berwick n-
ished with 11
hits against
N a n t i c o k e
starter Allie
Mat ul ewski ,
who had al-
lowed just 30 in 32 innings pre-
viously. The Dawgs also took
over rst place in Division 2,
with Tunkhannock and Wyo-
ming Area each a half-game be-
hind.
We hit the ball solid, Ber-
wick coach Brian Bridge said.
They werent towering home
runs, but they were all line
drives that were right on the
button. The ball was coming
through the ineld and going to
the outeld pretty quickly.

third inning was the epitome of

ON THE MARK
By MARK DUDEK
For The Times Leader
Some Kinda Beach makes his fourth career start this evening at
The Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs, and to say hes been brilliant
would be an understatement. The 3-year-old Somebeachsomewhere
colt is a perfect 3-for-3 thus far, winning each race by open lenghts,
including his most recent in a career-best mile of 1:52. It certainly
is going to be exciting watching this pacer moving forward, as the
competition will continue to get tougher. In any case look for driver
Marcus Miller to have the whip tucked away early, as this young star
cruises to his fourth straight triumph.

Astros beat Yanks
at their own game
NEW YORK Carlos Cor-
poran homered among his four
hits and drove in four runs,
Brandon Barnes three hits and
three RBIs, and the Houston As-
tros t comfortably into the role
of a slugging American League
squad Monday night in a 9-1
romp over the New York.
In their rst game in the
Bronx as an AL team, the Astros
peppered Andy Pettitte for 10
hits and seven runs, both season
highs for the lefty. Barnes and
Corporan had two-run doubles
and Barnes added an RBI single
and a double. Barnes and Corpo-
ran each set career highs for hits
and RBIs.
Houston bounced back from
a four-game sweep in Boston
with an enthusiastic win over
the Yankees, who had just taken
four straight from Toronto.
Lucas Harrell (3-2) kept New
York grounded.
Tigers 4, Twins 3
DETROIT Prince Fielders
towering three-run homer in the
sixth inning put Detroit ahead,
and the Tigers held on Monday
night for their fourth straight
win, 4-3 over the Minnesota
Twins.
Detroit trailed 3-1 when Andy
Dirks reached on a bunt single
and Miguel Cabrera walked.
Fielder hit the rst pitch over
the wall in left-center for an op-
posite-eld homer. That part of
the fence is about 405 feet from
home plate.
Max Scherzer (3-0) allowed
three runs and six hits in 7 1-3
innings. He struck out 10 with-
out a walk. Drew Smyly nished
the eighth and got the rst two
outs of the ninth, and Joaquin
Benoit nished for his second
save.
Mike Pelfrey (2-3) allowed
four runs and seven hits in 5 1-3
innings.
Indians 9, Royals 0
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Ub-
aldo Jimenez pitched into the
eighth inning, Ryan Raburn hit
two home runs and the Cleve-
land Indians pounded the Kan-
sas City Royals 9-0 on Monday
night to split their four-game
series.
Raburn hit a three-run shot in
the fth inning and a solo hom-
er in the eighth, and nished the
night with four hits. Jason Kip-
nis also went deep to pace a sud-
denly potent Indians offense.
Not that all the offense was
needed.
Jimenez (1-2) allowed only
two walks and an ineld single
by Billy Butler over his rst
seven innings. Otherwise, he
kept the Royals off balance in a
dazzling start that brought back
memories of the pitcher who
once threw a no-hitter for the
Colorado Rockies.
Meanwhile, Wade Davis (2-2)
made a second straight miser-
able start for the Royals. The
right-hander allowed eight runs
and 12 hits and three walks in
just 4 2-3 innings.

ton Astros Brandon Laird scores on a single by Carlos Pena

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre continues to
have success away from PNC
Field on Monday night sweep-
ing a doubleheader from Char-
lotte winning the rst game 5-4
before taking the second 5-0.
In the rst game, the RailRid-
ers defeated the Knights led by
Corban Joseph, who went 2-for-
3, including his team-leading
fourth home run of the season.
He also nished with three RBI.
Josephs blast in the top of the
third tied the game at 1-1.
SWB wasnt done, getting
right back at things in the next
inning with three more runs.
Cody Johnson gave the RailRid-
ers the lead at 2-1 with a run-
scoring single before Joseph
plated two more with a single to
push the score to 4-1.
After the RailRiders extended
the lead to 5-1 on an RBI hit
by Melky Mesa (2-for-3), it ap-
peared as if the lead was safe.
But closer Preston Claiborne
made things interesting in the
bottom of the seventh as the
Knights loaded the bases. Char-
lotte scored twice in the inning
before Claiborne struck out Josh
Bell to end the game and secure
the victory.
RailRiders starter Dellin Be-
tances only lasted 3 1/3 innings
and took a no-decision. Sam De-
mel (1-0) earned the win going
2 2/3 perfect innings with three
strikeouts.
In the second game, Zoilo Al-
monte rescued the RailRiders
twice.
The team loaded bases with
no outs in the top of the third
and almost left them there as
two outs were recorded and two
strikes were on Almonte. But he
cleared the bags with a double
for a 3-0 lead. Almonte came
through again with two outs in
the top of the fth after SWB
had runners on rst and second
with no outs. This time, he just
got one in with a single, but it
still pushed the advantage to 4-0.
Thats all Chris Bootcheck
needed. The right-hander once
again dominated on the mound
for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre go-
ing six scoreless innings to im-
prove his record to 3-0 and lower
his already microscopic ERA to
0.38. For the third time in four
starts this season he didnt give
up any runs. In 24 innings to
date, hes allowed just one run.
Almonte, Addison Maruszak
and Bobby Farnham all had two
hits for SWB.

Braves beat Nationals
and Strasburg yet again
ATLANTA Andrelton Sim-
mons hit a tiebreaking sacrice
y in the seventh inning, then
made an eye-popping play to
start the ninth as the Atlanta
Braves beat the Washington Na-
tionals 3-2 on Monday night and
ended their four-game losing
streak.
Atlanta beat the Nationals for
the eighth straight time dating
to last season. The Braves swept
three games at Washington ear-
lier this month.
Washingtons Stephen Stras-
burg ended his career-worst
streak of losses in four straight
starts. He allowed two runs in
six innings.
Ian Desmond off the ninth
with a slow grounder that Sim-
mons charged. The Atlanta
shortstop slipped as he elded
the ball and fell on his back-
side, but somehow red a strike
from the seat of his pants that
rst baseman Freddie Freeman
caught his a big stretch.
Desmond was called out on a
close play, and disagreed with
the decision. Washington man-
ager Davey Johnson came out
to argue with umpire Tim Tim-
mons.
Gerald Laird led off the
Braves seventh with a walk
from Tyler Clippard (1-1). Laird
moved up on pinch-hitter Ty-
ler Pastonickys sacrice bunt
and was held at third on Jordan
Schafers single.
Brewers 10. Pirates 4
MILWAUKEE Brewers
pitcher Yovani Gallardo hit one
of ve home runs for Milwau-
kee, which went back-to-back
twice in a 10-4 rout of the Pitts-
burgh Pirates on Monday night.
Gallardo also tossed three-hit
ball over seven innings, retir-
ing his nal 13 batters while
improving to 10-2 against Pitts-
burgh. He and Norichika Aoki
hit consecutive homers in the
fourth before Carlos Gomez and
Yuniesky Betancourt repeated
the feat in the fth.
Jean Segura also connected
for the Brewers, who added
three triples and matched a sea-
son high for runs.
Stanton leaves game
MIAMI Giancarlo Stanton
has left the Miami Marlins game
against the New York Mets with
a strained right hamstring.
Stanton hit a tapper in front
of the plate in the 10th inning
Monday, and clutched his right
hamstring just before he crossed
rst base trying in vain to beat
the throw. He then fell face-rst
to the turf.
Stanton rose slowly and
limped off the eld. He was re-
placed in right eld after.
The 2012 NL slugging leader
had shaken an early-season
slump recently, hitting his rst
home run Saturday and two
more Sunday.
This Date in Baseball April 30
1903 The New York Highlanders won their
home opener at Hilltop Park, 6-2 over Washington.
1919 Philadelphias Joe Oeschger and
Brooklyns Burleigh Grimes pitched complete
games in a 9-9, 20-inning tie. Both teams scored
three runs in the 19th inning. Oeschger gave up 22
hits and walked fve, while Grimes allowed 15 hits
and walked fve.
1922 Charlie Robertson of the Chicago White
Sox pitched a 2-0 perfect game against the Detroit
Tigers. Johnny Mostil, playing left feld for the only
time, made two outstanding catches.
1946 Bob Feller struck out 11 New York Yan-
kees en route to his second of three career no-
hitters, a 1-0 victory at Yankee Stadium.
1961 Willie Mays of the San Francisco Giants
hit four home runs and drove in eight runs in a 14-4
victory over the Braves in Milwaukee. Hank Aaron
hit two homers for the Braves.
1967 Steve Barber and Stu Miller of the Balti-
more Orioles combined on a no-hitter in a 2-1 loss
to the Detroit Tigers in the frst game of a double-
header.
1969 Jim Maloney of the Cincinnati Reds
struck out 13 en route to a 10-0 no-hitter over the
Houston Astros, the third of his career.
1988 New York and Cincinnati hooked up in
a wild game at Riverfront Stadium that the Mets
pulled out 6-5, on a delayed call by frst base um-
pire Dave Pallone. The call resulted in a $10,000
fne and 30-day suspension of Reds manager Pete
Rose when Pallone accidentally poked Rose in the
cheek and Rose shoved Pallone twice.

School: Crestwood
Grade: Senior
Sport: Tennis
Position: No. 1 Singles
All in the Family: Ross, 17, is the son of
David and Kimberly Gladey of Fairview
Twp. His sister Taylor, a Crestwood grad, is
a eld hockey player at William & Mary.
Stats: Gladey won both of his matches in
straight sets last week, capturing a 6-1, 6-3
victory in the top singles match against
Berwick, then polishing off a near-perfect
match against Dallas with a 6-0, 6-1 vic-
tory. That ended his nal regular season
at 9-2 heading into District 2 playoff com-
petition this week, and boosted Gladeys
career record to 32-20.
Hitting winners: Gladeys performance led
Crestwood to its second consecutive Wyo-
ming Valley Conference Class 3A champi-
onship, with Ross playing in the top singles
spot both seasons. A four-year starter,
Gladey played through a blister, which
hampered him during his two losses earlier
this season. He only began playing tennis
in the seventh grade, but his dynamic
kick serve proves hard for opponents to
handle because it has a lot of topspin, and
his quickness on the court leads to some
surprising returns and points. His dominat-
ing victory over Dallas helped the Comets
wrap up their division title.
Coachs corner: He doesnt have that one
powerful shot to just hit it by the person,
Crestwood coach Scott Lenio said. Hes
more of a technician. What he does is, hes
so quick, he gets to balls that the other
players think are by him. He keeps himself
in the point. Hes done well for us. Hes re-
ally improved his game. He really enjoys it,
he takes a lot of pride in it.
Did you know? The uid swing Gladey
features on the court wasnt developed
exclusively through tennis. Hes an avid
ping-pong player - I asked for a ping-pong
table one year for Christmas, I got into
ping-pong before I got into tennis, Gladey
said. And if you think Gladeys hard to beat
on the tennis court, just watch him work
the ping-pong table. Im pretty good, he
said.
From his angle: It felt pretty good to
clinch that win in your senior year, Gladey
said of Crestwoods second straight league
championship. I really just go for the win.
I try to play as hard as I can against every
opponent. I try to go no-mercy rule.
Week in review: In the high-scoring
sport of lacrosse, a couple kids came up
with some big stops on defense. George
Pfeiffer of Dallas stopped 15 of the 16
shots against him during a 9-1 victory in
the boys league. And on the girls league,
Coughlins Paige Tedik made 11 saves
and her team needed every one of them
to walk away with a 9-8 victory over
Lake-Lehman. Of course, last week still
produced some prime-time scorers, as
Crestwoods Jay Popson popped home
six goals during a boys victory over North
Pocono and Dallas Cara Pricher scored
ve times in a girls victory over Crest-
wood. It was another record-breaking
week in track and eld, where Wyoming
Valley Wests Will Butkiewicz set a track
record in the 800-meter run with a time
of 2:02 against Coughlin. In that same
meet, Coughlins 400-meter relay team of
Corey Keen, Zac Evans, Pat Malone and
Mujahid Chesson set a track record with
a time of 43.2 seconds. Tunkhannocks
Stefan Schlachter was impressive enough
without setting new standards, winning
the 100 and 200 dashes, the discus and
running on the rst-place relay team dur-
ing a victory over Pittston Area. On the
girls track, Lake-Lehmans Cayle Spencer
set a school record by throwing the javelin
124 feet, 11 inches. Danielle Spencer set a
Dallas school record by clearing 8 feet, 8
inches in the pole vault. And Dallas Katie
Kravitsky matched a school record with
a high jump of 5-2. Wyoming Areas
three-sport star Nick OBrien didnt set
any records, unless theres one for excel-
ling at double-duty. On the track, OBrien
nished rst in the 100 and 200-meter
dashes, the javelin throw and was a
member of the winning 400 relay team.
OBrien, known more as a football star
for the Warriors, kept right on running to
the baseball eld, where he had two of
his teams four hits in a loss to Coughlin
at PNC Field; drove home two runs in a
victory over Hazleton Area; and had two
hits and scored a run in a 2-1 victory over
Dallas during a week in which he batted
.364. Fortunately for Tunkhannocks
baseball team, Jeremy Lee brought a hot
bat into last week. His early two-run homer
against against Wyoming Valley West was
the difference in a 2-1 victory, and the most
signicant blow in a week where Lee hit
.500 with a double and four RBI as the
Tigers went 3-0 to move into rst place
in the WVC Division 2. Will Amesbury
used a 14-strikeout performance to help
Meyers move into second place in the
WVC Division 3. Hanover Areas Mickey
Ferrence twirled a three-inning no-hitter
at Wyoming Seminary. And Dallas Brian
Stepniak did a little of both, driving home
seven runs with two doubles and a homer
and picking up the victory on the mound
against division-leading Berwick. Stepniak
hit the rst home run and recorded the
rst win on Dallas new baseball eld. On
the softball eld, Tunkhannocks Ryleigh
Fitch launched a three-run homer in
the top of the seventh inning to lead the
Tigers past Crestwood, and also had two
hits and three of the teams four RBI in a
one-run victory over Coughlin. But pitch-
ing in the circle was equally impressive.
Hazleton Areas Becky Demko pitched a
complete-game no-hitter against Dal-
las. Wyoming Areas Alex Holt threw a
ve-inning no-hitter at Pittston Area and
nished with a complete-game two-hitter
against Nanticoke Area. Northwests
Kelsey Yustat pitched a one-hitter against
Wyoming Seminary with eight strikeouts
and struck out six while collecting two
hits at the plate against Scranton Prep.
And Redeemers Kaya Swanek allowed
just one run in two victories while striking
out 11, and adding a home run at the plate
against Northwest. Valley Wests John
Butchko did a little hitting himself on the
volleyball court. He made 42 assists, seven
digs, three kills and served up eight points

Syracuse University junior Donald Pol-
litt came up with a solid effort in last
weeks 119th Penn Relays in Philadelphia.
Pollitt (Hazleton Area) nished second
in the tough 110 meter hurdles Champion-
ship Division race. He posted a personal
record time of 13.85 losing only to Wayne
Davis of Texas A&M.
Pollitt also helped the 4x100 nish
fourth in the IC4A Division. He ran the
anchor leg with the group posting a time
of 41.25.
Donald has made good progress this
outdoor season, sprinter-hurdles coach
Dave Hegland said. His run at Penn is a
reection of how well he has been training
on a daily basis. We expect that to contin-
ue as we move into the championship sea-
son. He has great things ahead and were
very excited for him.
The Orange will compete in the Big
East Conference Championships Friday
through Sunday in Piscataway, N.J. and
then compete in the IC4A Championship
May 11-13 in Princeton, N.J.
RECORD FOR HAYWARD Fresh-
man Dannah Hayward nished third in
her heat and 21st overall in the 400 meter
hurdles in the Championships race at the
Penn Relays and she did it in record fash-
ion.
Hayward (Coughlin) posted a time of
1:01.25 for the school record in that event.
She had set the previous record (1:01.41)
at the Colonial Relays.
Im not disappointed but I know that
I could have run better, she said of her
Penn Relays effort. But to break a school
record, you cant really be disappointed
with that.
Hayward later ran with the 4x400 relay
which nished 47th out of 79 teams with
a time of 3:54.49. Her effort earned her At-
lantic-10 Conference Rookie of the Week
honors.
Junior Mercedes Yanora (Holy Re-
deemer) also competed for the Hawks and
helped the 4x100 nish 56th in 49.05.
Up next will be the league champion-
ships Saturday and Sunday in Charlotte,
N.C.
Dannah is in the top ve in the confer-
ence in the intermediate hurdles and has
a strong chance to medal, coach Kevin
Quinn said. She is a terric competitor
and always makes it her goal to do her best.
This attitude makes her a real threat.
The coach calls Yanora a valuable asset
to the team.
Mercedes has consistently been our
top sprinter, runs a strong leadoff leg on
our 4x100 and has shown well on the occa-
sions she has run with the 4x400, Quinn
said.
GOOD MEET FOR BLACK Penn
State freshman Shelley Black (Cough-
lin) competed in her rst Penn Relays and
posted a pair of solid efforts. Black n-
ished 15th in the 400 meter hurdles with
a season and personal best time of 1:00.44.
Then she helped the 4x400 relay n-
ish fourth in the meets Champions of
America race. The team posted a time of
3:33.47, the second fasted in the Big Ten
Conference this season. Black, running in
leg three, had a time of 54.4.
The Big Ten Championships is set for
May 10-12 in Columbus, Ohio.
COLLEY READY TO GO Sopho-
more Gavin Colley (Tunkhannock) will
lead the Widener mens track team into
the Middle Atlantic Conference Outdoor
Track Championships starting Thursday
in Annville.
Colley prepped for the meet by help-
ing the teams 4x400 relay nish fourth in
the Pop Haddleton MAC race at the Penn
Relays. Prior to that, he nished fourth in
both the 100 (11.18) and the 200 (23.09)
at the West Chester Invitational. And the
day after he competed at the Penn Relays,
he helped the 4x100 relay win at the Col-
lege of NewJersey Invitational with a time
of 42.46.
Colley won the 60 meter title and helped
the Pride capture its sixth MAC Indoor
Championship in the last seven years dur-
ing the winter.
Gavin is the top-ranked runner in the
100 meters, coach Vince Touey said. And
he will anchor our 400 relay team, which
is also the top-rated squad entering the
championships.
Freshman Michael Ambrulavage
(Holy Redeemer) also competes for Wid-
ener and he nished third in the 3,000
steeplechase at West Chester.
ALEXANDER PITCHING IN Fresh-
man Tommy Alexander (Wyoming Val-
ley West) is pitching for the Old Dominion
baseball team. The 6-foot-3, 180-pound
right-hander has a 2-3 record and a 5.35
earned run average in 13 games and one
start for the Monarchs, who are 23-21
overall and 13-11 in the Colonial Athletic
Association.
In 35.1 innings, hes given up 38 hits and
22 runs, 21 earned, with 14 walks and 29
strikeouts.
Tommy has really improved as the
season has gone on and we are all excited
about his future at ODU, coach Chris Fin-
wood said. He got off to a slow start but
has really rebounded well and continues to
improve with each outing.
Alexander proved the coach right in
his latest effort. He pitched ve innings
of shutout relief, giving up just two hits,
walking one and striking out three in Old
Dominions 7-3 league victory over Dela-
ware last Saturday.
HERR JUMPED RIGHT IN Juniata
junior Justin Herr (Crestwood) compet-
ed in three events at last weekends Land-
mark Conference Outdoor Track Champi-
onships in Towson, Md. He nished fourth
in the triple jump (42-10 ), fth in the
high jump (5-10) and 10th in the long
jump (19-11).
Justin has been more consistent this
spring, but we are still waiting for the big
jump in performance coach Jon Cutright
said. After setting personal bests in every
meet last year, this year seemed dull for
him.
BIG YEAR FOR WENNER Junior
tri-captain Shannon Wenner of Drums
(MMI Prep) hit .388 (26-for-67) with three
doubles, two triples, three home runs,
15 runs scored and 16 RBI for the Cedar
Crest softball team, which posted a 10-18
overall record and an 8-14 mark in the Co-
lonial States Athletic Conference.
Wenner, who played rst base, made
just four errors on 180 chances (.978).
KOHLI HELPED OUT Sophomore
Sarah Kohli (Dallas) played in 15 games
and started 13 for the LaRoche softball
team, which nished its season with a 7-23
overall record and a 4-12 mark in the Al-
legheny Mountain Collegiate Conference.
Kohli, an inelder, hit .375 (12-for-32)
with four runs scored, two stolen bases
and an RBI.

host Game 7 on Saturday.
Nate Robinson had 20 points
and eight assists starting in
place of point guard Kirk Hin-
rich, who bruised his left calf in
Saturdays game.
Only eight NBA teams have
overcome a 3-1 decit, but the
Nets remained condent af-
ter Saturdays collapse, feeling
they had outplayed the Bulls for
long stretches during the series.
They have led by double digits
in four of the ve games.
But they need two more wins
against a Bulls franchise that is
12-0 all-time when holding a 3-1
lead.
Robinson scored 29 of his 34
points after the third quarter
Saturday in a game the Nets led
by 14 late in regulation. Coming
off his big game and agitating to
opposing fans even when hes
struggling, Robinson was loudly
booed during introductions, and
each time he touched the ball

ATLANTA Josh Smith

After struggling much of the

big play down the stretch. He

ion will play at 6,996 yards on
the scorecard. The last major
course that was under 7,000
yards was Shinnecock Hills
for the 2004 U.S. Open, which
played 6,996 yard. Merion will
be the shortest since Southern
Hills, which was 6,973 in 2001.
Theres going to be more
birdies made at this U.S. Open
than any we have seen in recent
history, USGA executive direc-
tor Mike Davis said. Theres
just some holes out here that
lend themselves to it. Which is
wonderful. Then theres some
holes that are very tough. I
would contend that youve got
this balance of some of the easi-
est holes for U.S. Opens that
youll see in the modern era, yet
at the same time, they have got
some tough holes.
Davis and club ofcials spoke
on a rainy Monday at Merion
that certainly didnt dampen the
enthusiasm of the return of ma-
jor golf to the Philadelphia area.
Simpson, who Skyped in for the
event, had last years champion-
ship trophy by his side.
Its even more of an honor at
a place I love, he said. I cant
wait to get there.
Simpson emerged last year
on a fog-lled nal day at The
Olympic Club in San Francisco
with four birdies around the turn
and a tough chip out of a hole to
the right of the 18th green that
he converted into par for a 2-un-
der 68. He outlasted former U.S.
Open champions Jim Furyk and
Graeme McDowell and nished
at 1-over 281.
Aside from the boost in his
bank account and tour ranking,
Simpson has been noticed more
because of the win.
When I used to sign auto-
graphs the kid would ask the
mom who I was, and sometimes
she would say, I dont know
who that is, he said. But now
people know who I am more.
The USGA decided to cut
down on tickets because Merion
is not a big piece of property like
Bethpage Black or Pinehurst.
The USGA will take a nancial
hit compared with other venues,
but it felt it was worth it. Merion
expected about 25,500 fans dur-
ing the peak days of the tourna-
ment.
We dont look at this as a one-
year nancial exercise, USGA
vice president Tom OToole
said. We look over a period of
years, and were perfectly com-
fortable that we could come
back and have a less nancially
signicant Open.
Merions famed wicker basket
agsticks will be in place. So
will an increased focus on pace
after 14-year-old Guan Tianlang
got a one-shot penalty for slow
play during the second round at
the Masters.
We want to make sure that
the pace-of-play policy is consis-
tent with what the challenge is
here at Merion, OToole said.
Well be looking at it closely.
All eyes will be on Merion,
which opened in 1912, for a
weekend. Ben Hogan won the
second of his four Opens at
Merion. Lee Trevino beat Jack
Nicklaus in a playoff. History is
all around the famed course. Its
time to make some more.
When we closed up in 1981,
its not as if the course didnt
play well, but we really thought
this was the last time, at least
at a national Open Champion-
ship, you would ever see Merion
played on TV, Davis said. It
had nothing to do with the golf
course in terms of howit played,
in terms of a test of golf. But it
had everything to do with, how
do you t a modern day U.S.
Open on this 111 acres?

SECOND TEAM AL L- STARS
By JAY MONAHAN
For The Times Leader
TI MES L EADER BOYS SWI MMI NG AL L- STARS
Tigers Spencer
kept getting better
In the Lackawanna-centric Wyoming
Valley Conference North Division, its easy
to overlook Ben Spencer and his Tunkhan-
nock team.
But Spencer made sure his name, his
team, and his athleticism wouldnt be dis-
counted with a record-breaking set of per-
formances.
The Times Leader names Tunkhan-
nocks Ben Spencer the 2013 Boys Swim-
ming and Diving Athlete of the Year, in
honor of a season in which he collected
two district championships and two state
medals.
Spencers claim to fame came in the
200 IM in which he broke former Bishop
Hoban star Mark Bellows 1990 record of
1:58.94 with a newdistrict mark of 1:58.09.
For Spencer, its a goal hes had his eyes on
since his sophomore season.
During my sophomore year, I dropped
something like 10 seconds off my time,
Spencer said. I said then that my goal was
to break a district record. It seemed in my
grasp.
Im happy with my performance. I
never really had anything in my life that
I could relate to this. Im going to enjoy it
while I can.
Spencer followed his 200 IMvictory with
a rst-place nish in the 100 back in 53.65
seconds just off another district record.
He followed suit at PIAAs with two state
Class 2A medals. Spencer garnered fth in
the 200 IM at 1:58.24. He then took sixth
in the 100 back in 53.21 seconds.
Like any good swimmer who strives for
perfect, Spencer said he felt honored to be
on the awards podium but lamented that
his times could have been better at states.
Its funny because I was still sad and
upset, Spencer said. I bettered my times
but I still know that I didnt go as low as I
wanted.
Spencer will have plenty of opportu-
nities to lower his times after signing a
scholarship to swim at Division II Clarion
University. He plans on majoring in busi-
ness administration.
For now, Spencer is content on mak-
ing his teammates faster for next season,
taking a mentor role during his nal sea-
son. Two of his relays nished second at
districts and qualied for states. His 200
medley relay teamplaced in ninth one off
of a state medal with a 1:40.43.
I basically want to them to practice as
hard as I do, Spencer said. When I was
a freshman, I worked my butt off to keep
up with our faster seniors. I tried enforcing
that mentality with them.
It was great qualifying for relays be-
cause my teammates were there this time
for me.
Now that all is said and done, Spencer
goes down as one of the most accom-
plished swimmers in Tunkhannocks his-
tory.
I denitely think I matured. Thats how
I think I was able to make all of my goals.
My coach (Tim Mislevy) really taught me
life lessons along the way.

ond victory in the 100 buttery,
narrowly defeating Wyoming Val-
ley Wests Thomas Missal. His 200

that. She ripped a knee-high
liner down the left-eld line that
didnt even give Nanticoke third
baseman Kara Voyton a chance
to react.
Bridge, though, did the most
harm to Nanticoke while in the
circle. She struck out seven and
surrendered just four hits. She
got out of a bases-loaded jam in
the rst when second baseman
Welsh caught a line drive and
turned it into an inning-ending
double play.
After that, she allowed just
one hit over the next four in-
nings.
Shes been pretty consistent
with her control this year,
Brian Bridge said. Happy with
that. We dont like to give free
ones away. When we can keep
them off the bases without
walks, thats denitely a plus.
Nanticoke (7-3 Div. 1) got its
only run on an RBI single by
Voyton in the sixth. It scored
Kayley Schinski, who singled
and stole second. Bridge then
recorded the nal four outs via
strikeouts. Taylor Briggs had
Nanticokes only extra-base hit,
a double in the third.
Nanticoke had lost only three
WVC regular-season games over
the last three years. But with
the core of those teams having
graduated, rst-year coach Ryan
Stetz remained optimistic.
The teams weve lost to are
quality teams and theres noth-
ing for our girls to keep their
heads down about, Stetz said.
Wyoming Area and Hazleton
played for district champion-
ships last year and have senior
pitchers on the mound. We
knew what the challenges were
coming in.

Penguins hold top seeding in East
By IRA PODELL
AP Sports Writer
Alook at the rst-round series
in the NHL playoffs:
EASTERN CONFERENCE
No. 1 Pittsburgh Penguins (36-12-
0) vs. No. 8 New York Islanders
(24-17-7)
2013 series record: Pittsburgh
4-1. Playoff History: New York 3-0.
Last meeting: New York 4-3 in 1993
Patrick Division nals.
PITTSBURGH: The Penguins were
23-4 in their nal 27 games but will
need to be on their game to avoid
a third straight rst-round exit.
The Penguins are getting healthier
all over as Evgeni Malkin returned
earlier in the week after he sat
out four because of an upper body
injury. Sidney Crosby (jaw) is back
practicing and could soon receive
medical clearance to play in games.
Reinforcements acquired at the
trade deadline -- Brenden Morrow,
Jussi Jokinen and Jarome Iginla
-- have helped Pittsburgh offset its
injuries.
N.Y. ISLANDERS: The Islanders
are in the playoffs for the rst time
since 2007 and will be looking for
their rst series win since they
reached the conference nals in
1993. John Tavares emerged as a
legitimate MVP contender by scor-
ing 28 goals and adding 19 assists in
48 games.
OUTLOOK: Islanders are ready
for playoffs, but not quite ready to
knock off playoff-tested Pittsburgh.
Penguins in 5.
No. 2 Montreal Canadiens (29-
14-5) vs. No. 7 Ottawa Senators
(25-17-6)
2013 series record: Both teams
2-1-1.
Playoff History: First meeting.
MONTREAL: The Canadiens closed
the regular season going 4-6 in
their last 10 games. Most alarm-
ingly is Montreal yielded 29 goals in
those six losses. Carey Price was in
goal for nine of 10 games before the
nale vs. Toronto. Price earned 21
wins in his 39 appearances, posting
a 2.59 GAA.
OTTAWA: The Senators were 6-3
in their nal nine games. ... G Craig
Anderson had played seven straight
and nine of 10 before resting for the
season nale. OUTLOOK: This back-
yard brawl could go back and forth
for quite a while. Ottawa will be still
standing at the end. Senators in 7.
No. 3 Washington Capitals (27-
18-3) vs. No. 6 New York Rangers
(26-18-4)
2013 series record: New York 2-0-1.
Playoff History: Washington 4-3.
Last meeting: New York 4-3 in 2012
conference seminals.
WASHINGTON: Alex Ovechkin fu-
eled the Capitals surge to their fth
Southeast Division title in six years
by leading the NHL with 32 goals.
Ovechkin scored an NHL-record 14
goals in April.
N.Y. RANGERS: Rick Nash broke
out of a scoring slump with two
goals in the nale to reach 20 for
the ninth straight season. Brad
Richards enters the playoffs on a
six-game point streak, and Henrik
Lundqvist has allowed two goals or
fewer in 16 of the past 20 games.
OUTLOOK: These teams went
seven games last season, with
the nal two being decided by 2-1
scores. Expect more of the same.
Rangers in 7.
No. 4 Boston Bruins (28-14-6)
vs. No. 5 Toronto Maple Leafs
(26-17-5)
2013 series record: Boston 3-1-0.
Playoff History: Boston 8-5. Last
meeting: Boston 4-0 in 1974 quar-
ternals.
BOSTON: Boston is in the postsea-
son for the sixth straight season. ...
David Krejci scored a team-high 23
goals, followed by Patrice Bergeron
with 22.
TORONTO: The Maple Leafs lost
four of their nal six and were out-
scored 20-15 in that stretch. ... Phil
Kessel netted his 20th goal of the
season, giving him 10 in 10 games.
OUTLOOK: Boston outlasts Toronto
in matchup of skidding clubs. Bruins
in 7.
WESTERN CONFERENCE
No. 1 Chicago Blackhawks (36-
7-5) vs. No. 8 Minnesota Wild
(26-19-3)
2013 series record: Minnesota 2-0-
1. Playoff History: First meeting.
CHICAGO: Chicago started the sea-
son 21-0-3 and then cruised to a 10-
3-2 mark in April. ... The Blackhawks
are one of the most balanced teams
in the league, with Patrick Kane and
Jonathan Toews tying for the club
lead with 23 goals.
MINNESOTA: Much was expected
after the teams big free-agent
signings of forward Zach Parise
and Ryan Suter last summer. Parise
led the club with 18 goals, and his
Stanley Cup playoff experience
from New Jersey should help his
teammates. Suter was fourth on the
team with 32 points, including 28
assists.
OUTLOOK: If Chicago is going to
be seriously tested on the way to
the nals, it wont be by the Wild.
Blackhawks in 5.
No. 2 Anaheim Ducks (30-12-6)
vs. No. 7 Detroit Red Wings (24-
16-8)
2013 series record: Anaheim 2-1-0.
Playoff History: Detroit 3-2. Last
meeting: Detroit 4-3 in 2009 con-
ference seminals.
ANAHEIM: Top-line forwards Ryan
Getzlaf and Corey Perry tied for the
team lead with 15 goals each, and
Teemu Selanne and Bobby Ryan
combined for only 23 goals.
DETROIT: Jimmy Howard will have
to be the ultimate backstop now
after having a ne regular season in
which he won 21 games and posted
a 2.13 GAA.
OUTLOOK: The Red Wings returned
to the postseason again, but wont
stick around too long. Ducks in 6.
No. 3 Vancouver Canucks (26-
15-7) vs. No. 6 San Jose Sharks
(25-16-7)
2013 series record: San Jose 3-0-
0. Playoff History: Vancouver 1-0.
Last meeting: Vancouver 4-1 in 2011
conference nals.
VANCOUVER: The Canucks
mustered just 127 goals this season
-- 28 fewer than Central champion
Chicago and 13 less than Pacic
champion Anaheim. Alex Burrows
led the Canucks with 13 goals.
SAN JOSE: The Sharks were 17-2-5
at home but only 8-13-2 on the road,
though one of the wins was in Van-
couver. Logan Couture led the team
with 21 goals.
OUTLOOK: San Jose is used to long
playoff runs. Its success over Van-
couver continues into the playoffs.
Sharks in 6.
No. 4 St. Louis Blues (29-17-2)
Vs. No. 5 Los Angeles Kings (27-
16-5)
2013 series record: Los Angeles
3-0-0. Playoff History: St. Louis 2-1.
Last meeting: Los Angeles 4-0 in
2012 conference seminals.
ST. LOUIS: The Blues surged in
April to an 11-2 mark in the nal
month. G Brian Elliott led the way
down the stretch for St. Louis, giv-
ing up 16 goals in the nal 13 games.
LOS ANGELES: The Kings won
the franchises rst Stanley Cup
title last year, and they did it from
the No. 8 seed. G Jonathan Quick
earned Conn Smythe Trophy honors
last year as the playoff MVP when
he went 16-4 with a minuscule 1.41
GAA. Jeff Carter paced the offense
with 26 goals, and Anze Kopitar
topped the team with 42 points.
OUTLOOK: Los Angeles is ready
for another lengthy playoff stay. It
starts here. Kings in 7.

SECTI ON B
IN BRIEF
New jewelry store opening
Ron Antolick and Carol Hannon,
who are former Bartikowsky Jewlery
employees, will hold a grand opening
today of their new jewelry store in
Wilkes-Barre Township.
RACO Jewelry will host its grand
opening today from noon to 2 p.m.
with a ribbon-cutting ceremony at
12:30 p.m. Refreshments will be pro-
vided. The location is on Route 309 at
228 Wilkes-Barre Township Boulevard.
Its a full-service jeweler specializing
in jewelry and watch repair, including
Rolex. They offer verbal and written
appraisals that are done by a Gradu-
ate Gemologist (GIA). RACO Jewelry
also buys gold, silver, estate jewelry,
sterling atware, and coins.
Oil above $94 on US data
The price of oil rose above $94
per barrel Monday as positive U.S.
economic data added to optimism for a
rate cut in Europe.
Benchmark crude for June delivery
gained $1.50 to nish at $94.50 a bar-
rel in New York. Oil hadnt nished
above $94 since April 10.
The U.S. government said Ameri-
cans spent more in March as their
incomes went up. And pending home
sales hit their highest level in three
years. Traders also think the European
Central Bank will cut its benchmark
interest rate from the current record
low of 0.75 percent to 0.50 percent, in
a further attempt to turn around the
economy there.
A weaker dollar also helped boost
oil prices by making crude priced in
dollars cheaper for traders using other
currencies. On Monday, the euro was
up to $1.3100 from $1.3065 late Friday
in New York.
S&P 500 reaches new high
Technology companies led the Stan-
dard & Poors 500 index to an all-time
closing high Monday.
The stock market has recovered all
the ground it lost over the previous
two weeks, when worries over slower
economic growth, falling commodity
prices and disappointing quarterly
earnings battered nancial markets.
The S&P 500 index rose 11.37
points to close at 1,593.61. The 0.7 per-
cent increase nudged the index above
its previous closing high of 1,593.36,
reached on April 11.
A pair of better economic reports
gave investors some encouragement.
Wages and spending rose in the U.S.
last month, and pending home sales
hit their highest level in three years.

Consumers upped spending 0.2 % last month
By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER
AP Economics Writer
WASHINGTON Americans kept
increasing their spending in March
and their income grew, further indi-
cation that consumers are shaking off
higher taxes.
The Commerce Department said
Monday that consumer spending
rose 0.2 percent in March fromFebru-
ary. That followed a 0.7 percent jump
in February and a 0.3 percent gain in
January.
Income increased 0.2 percent last
month, following a gain of 1.1 per-
cent in February. After-tax income
also rose 0.2 percent.
Higher income has helped offset an
increase in Social Security taxes that
took effect on Jan. 1. On Friday, the
government said consumer spend-
ing rose from January through March
at the fastest pace in more than two
years.
The consumer is doing reasonably
well, Joseph LaVorgna, an econo-
mist at Deutsche Bank, said in a note
to clients.
Spending on services drove the
March increase. That was partly
due to an unseasonably cold March,
which required Americans to pay
more to heat their homes.
Higher spending on utilities does
not signal consumer condence the
way purchases on household goods,
such as new appliances or furniture,
typically do. And other reports sug-
gest consumers may be starting to
feel the impact of the tax increase.
Sales at retail stores and restaurants
fell in March by the most in nine
months.
The 2 percentage point tax increase
has reduced tax-home pay for nearly
all Americans. A person earning
50,000 a year will have about $1,000
less to spend this year. A household
with two highly paid workers will
have up to $4,500 less.
That may slow consumer spending
and economic growth in the April-
June quarter. Consumer spending
accounts for about 70 percent of eco-
nomic activity.
Other trends may offset some
of the impact of the taxes this year.
Consumers have cut their debts and
rising home values and stock prices
have increased household wealth.
In addition, gasoline has become
cheaper. The national average price
for a gallon of gas has fallen by 29
cents since Feb. 27 to $3.50. A de-
cline in gas prices leaves consumers
with more money to spend on other
things.
SAN FRANCISCO Google is try-
ing to upstage Siri, the sometimes droll
assistant that answers questions and
helps people manage their lives on Ap-
ples iPhone and iPad.
The duel began Monday with the re-
lease of a free iPhone and iPad app that
features Google Now, a technology that
performs many of the same functions
as Siri.
Its the rst time that Google Now
has been available on smartphones and
tablet computers that arent running
on the latest version of Googles An-
droid software. The technology, which
debuted nine months ago, is being in-
cluded in an upgrade to Googles search
application for iOS, the Apple Inc. soft-
ware that powers the iPhone, iPad and
iPod Touch. Its up to each user to de-
cide whether to activate Google Now
within the redesigned Google Search
app, which is available through Apples
app store.
Google Nows invasion of Siris turf
marks Google Inc.s latest attempt to
lure iPhone and iPad users away from
a service that Apple built into its own
devices.
Google quickly won over millions
of iPhone users in December when it
released a mapping application to re-
place the navigation system that Apple
dumped when it redesigned iOS last
fall. Apples maps application proved to
be inferior to Googles ousted service.
The apps bugs and glitches made Ap-
ple the butt of jokes and fueled demand
for Google to develop a new option.
Apple has been losing to Google on
other fronts in a rapidly growing mobile
computing market, an arena that was
revolutionized with the iPhones release
in 2007. Smartphones and tablet com-
puters running Googles free Android
software have been steadily expanding
their market share in recent years, partly
because they tend to be less expensive
than the iPhone and iPad. At the end
of 2012, Android devices held about 69
percent of the smartphone market while
iOS held about 19 percent, according to
the research rm IDC.
Androids success has been particu-
larly galling for Apple because its late
CEO Steve Jobs believed Google stole
many of its ideas for the software from
the iPhone. That led to a series of court
battles over alleged patent infringe-
ment, including a high-prole trial last
year that culminated in Apple winning
hundreds of millions in damages from
Samsung Electronics, the top seller of
Android phones. That dispute is still
embroiled in appeals.

WASHINGTON The number of
Americans who signed contracts to
buy homes rose in March to the high-
est level in three years, pointing to
higher sales this spring.
The National Association of Re-
altors said Monday that its season-
ally adjusted index for pending home
sales rose 1.5 percent to 105.7. Thats
the highest since April 2010, when a
homebuyers tax credit boosted sales.
Its also above Februarys reading of
104.1.
There is generally a one- to two-
month lag between a signed con-
tract and a completed sale. Contract
signings rose in the South, West and
Midwest, and were unchanged in the
Northeast.
Steady job gains and near-record
low mortgage rates have helped drive
home sales up over the past year.
Signed contracts are 7 percent higher
than the same month a year earlier.
But completed sales have slowed
in recent months and dipped in
March because of a limited supply
of available homes on the market. The
number of homes for sale has fallen
nearly 17 percent in the past year to
1.93 million, the Realtors group said
last week. At the current sales pace,
that supply would be exhausted in 4.7
months, below the 6 months that is
typical in healthier markets.
Buyer trafc is 25 percent higher
than it was a year ago. Rising demand
and low supply is fueling more home
construction.
U.S. builders started work on more
than 1 million homes at an annual
rate in March. Thats the rst time
the pace has topped that threshold in
nearly 5 years.
The housing recovery is helping
boost economic growth this year.
Builders are starting work on more
homes, creating more construction
jobs. And home prices are rising.
Higher prices tend to make home-
owners feel wealthier and encourage
more spending.
Mortgage rates, meanwhile, remain
near record lows. The average rate on
the 30-year xed mortgage fell to 3.4
percent last week, from 3.41 percent.
Thats not far from the record low of
3.31 percent, reached in November
The average rate on the 15-year
xed mortgage fell to 2.61 percent
last week, the lowest on records dat-
ing back to 1991.

Put down the mega-latte! Womens
Health has ve healthier ways to get a
lasting boost for your day.
FIRE UP YOUR IPOD: Blasting Jay-Z
may snap you out of your stupor, but not
just because you dig his furious beats.
Music stimulates almost every region of
the brain.
When you perform the same tasks
each day its easy to get lulled into
sleepiness, but background tunes combat
the monotony, enhancing concentra-
tion and focus. For a stronger jolt, play
a feel-good favorite for three minutes.
Anything from Britney to Bach will work,
as long as its upbeat.
WATCH THAT RIDICULOUS YOU-
TUBE CLIP: Laughter doesnt actually
release endorphins, it does however,
increase your heart rate and activate
your muscular system, making you feel
instantly revived.
BREAK YOUR HOARDING HABITS:
A messy desk or kitchen counter can be a
serious drain.
The reminder of everything we havent
gotten to yet really drags us down. If you
dont have time for an overhaul, simply
ling loose papers into folders can clear
your mind. Try using a tray for critical
items, so you can remove them from
sight without worrying theyll be forgot-
ten.
TAKE A MEDITATION MOMENT: It
may seem counterintuitive, but silence
can really revive you. Your brain and
body are constantly responding to
stimuli, which is exhausting.
But it takes only 60 seconds of quiet
time to replace all that dissipated energy.
Sit quietly and breathe deeply for ve
breaths, concentrating on inhaling and
exhaling slowly.
GRAB SOME PEPPERMINT: Aro-
matherapists have long relied on
peppermint oil as a natural stimulant.
Researchers found that snifng pepper-
mint immediately improves both athletes
running speed and ofce workers typing
speed. Its scent acts as a mood enhancer
that boosts your motivation and concen-
tration. So grab an infusion, whether its
breath mints, lip gloss, or hand lotion.

Stems cells taken from just a few
grams of body fat are a promising
weapon against the crippling effects of
osteoarthritis.
For the past two decades, knee, hip
or other joint replacements have been
the standard treatment for the dete-
rioration of joint cartilage and the un-
derlying bone. But articial joints only
last about 15 years and are difcult to
repair once they fail.
Stem cell injections may offer a new
type of therapy by either stopping the
degenerative process or by regenerat-
ing the damaged cartilage, said pio-
neering researcher Dr. Farshid Guilak,
a professor of orthopedic surgery and
director of orthopedic research at
Duke University.
Guilak, one of the rst researchers
to grow cartilage from fat, explains
why stem cells are a bright light in
osteoarthritis research and why wide-
spread clinical use is still years away.
Below is an edited transcript of the
interview.
Q: How are stem cell injections pur-
ported to help?
A: Several studies in animals show
that stem cell injections may help by
reducing the inammation in the joint.
Stem cells appear to have a natural ca-
pacity to produce anti-inammatory
molecules, and once injected in the
joint, can slow down the degenerative
process in osteoarthritis.
(Since this interview, research pub-
lished in Stem Cells Translational
Medicine has found that stem cells
may also be an effective way to deliver
therapeutic proteins for pain relief re-
lated to rheumatoid arthritis.)
Q: Does the bulk of research look at
how stem cells heal traumatic injuries,
or does it look at degenerative condi-
tions such as arthritis?
A: Nearly all previous studies on
stem cell therapies in joints have fo-
cused on trying to repair small focal

In the heat of the moment, its a good
bet sexually transmitted infections are
the last thing on a teens or young adults
mind.
Thus, according to the Centers for
Disease Control and Prevention in At-
lanta, young people ages 15-24, who
make up just more than one-quarter of
the sexually active population, account
for half of the 20 million new sexually
transmitted infections that occur in the
U.S. each year.
With this being Sexually Transmitted
Disease Awareness Month, ofcials are
emphasizing efforts to educate teens
and their parents about the public health
issue to slow the spread of diseases
among young people.
In addition to providing testing, some
localities are leveraging social media to
help informthe public about treatments,
prevention strategies and the need to get
tested.
It is a sobering reality that so many
young people are infected with STDs
and even more startling, the number
of these young people who arent even
aware of it, said Dr. Patrick ONeal, di-
rector of health protection at the Geor-
gia Department of Public Health. Our
goal is to reduce incidence of STDs and
the disparity in numbers of young peo-
ple infected, and cutting down sexual
transmission of STDs.

affect people of all ages, they take a par-

hen the alarm goes off at 6 a.m.,
getting out of bed and heading
to the gym may seem like an impos-
sible task. Good news! Recent stud-
ies have found that exercising with a

moving quickly between exercises in
order to keep your heart rate elevat-
ed. Repeat the circuit three times.

Face your partner while stand-
ing 6 feet apart. From a standing
position, toss a weighted medicine
ball (4 pounds is good for begin-
ners) to your partner, who will
catch it while moving into a squat,

partner should toss the ball back to
you while rising into a standing po-
sition. Each partner should throw
and catch the ball 20 times.
Airplanes holding hands
Stand at your partners side with
both hands outstretched to your
sides. You should be far enough
away from your partner that only
your hands are touching. Hold one
of your partners hands while you
both face forward, looking in the
same direction. Both of you should
lean forward at the same time
while raising your innermost legs
up and back. Stretch the leg up and
back until your chest, abdomen
and innermost legs are parallel to
the oor. Hold this position for 3
seconds before returning to an up-
right position. Repeat 10 times be-
fore turning to face the other way
to exercise your other leg.

damage to the cartilage.
Only a fewrecent studies have
begun to examine the possibil-
ity for treating the whole joint,
either to grow enough cartilage
to resurface the entire joint or to
use stem cells to prevent further
degeneration.
Q: Meaning one day, entire
joint surfaces such as hips and
knees could be grown in a lab?
A: That has been one of our
primary research goals, so that
people with arthritis can simply
resurface the cartilage in their
joints without having a total
joint replacement.
To do this, we have developed
a fabric scaffold that can be
created in the exact shape of the
joint, while allowing stem cells
to form new cartilage.
One of our most exciting nd-
ings was the discovery that fat
tissue contained large numbers
of stem cells that could form
cartilage and bone.
In this way, we could easily
get enough cells from a small
liposuction procedure to com-
pletely resurface a persons
worn-out hip or knee.
Q: Is it legal to get stem cell
treatment for osteoarthritis in
the U.S.?
A: While there is great prom-
ise for stem cell therapies,
theres little clinical evidence
supporting it for arthritis; we
dont yet know if this type of
treatment is safe in humans,
or for that matter, that it even
works.
Some physicians are offering
these treatments without FDA
approval, but I feel it is irrespon-
sible and potentially dangerous
to perform such a procedure
without having a clear under-
standing of the possible risks
and benets.
Several clinical trials are
planned and ongoing, mostly
outside the U.S.

SCREENING RECOMMENDATIONS:
Annual chlamydia screening for all sexually active women
age 25 and younger.
Yearly gonorrhea screening for at-risk sexually active
women with new or multiple sex partners and women who
live in communities with a high incidence of disease.
Syphilis, chlamydia and hepatitis B screening for all preg-
nant women, and gonorrhea screening for at-risk pregnant
women at the rst prenatal visit to protect the health of
mothers and their infants.
Screening at least once a year for syphilis, chlamydia,
gonorrhea and HIV for all sexually active men who have
sex with men. Those who use illicit drugs or whose sex
partners participate in these activities should be screened
more frequently.

ticularly heavy physical toll on
young people, said Dr. Gail Bo-
lan, director of the CDCs Divi-
sion of STD Prevention.
This is true especially for
young women going through
puberty because biological fac-
tors make it easier for organ-
isms to enter their reproduc-
tive systems.
Although most women will
clear infection with medical
treatment, some are left with
debilitating pelvic pain and are
at increased risk of developing
ectopic pregnancies.
Among the eight common
sexually transmitted infec-
tions, she said, the human
papillomavirus, or HPV, is by
far the most common among
teens and young adults.
Though most HPV infec-
tions will clear on their own,
some will take hold and can
lead to serious disease, includ-
ing cervical cancer.
Chlamydia, gonorrhea, geni-
tal herpes and trichomoniasis
are also common among the
young age group.
Undiagnosed infections
cause 24,000 women to be-
come infertile each year, ac-
cording to the CDC.
I think weve known for a
long time that young people
are at greater risk for sexually
transmitted disease and the
prevalence of infection among
them is very high, Bolan said.
The way we reduce infection
is by identifying people as
quickly as possible so that they
can get treated. Bolan said
her ofce is partnering with
other public health agencies to
raise awareness not only about
the impact of infections, but
the causes and what teens and
young adults can do to protect
themselves.
A lack of access to health
care, condentiality concerns,
even being too embarrassed to
tell anyone, all feed the spread
of infections, she said.
Bolan said sexually active
teens and young adults should
be checked periodically for dis-
ease. If they suspect theyve
been infected, they should
seek care from their pediatri-
cian or primary care doctor. If
they dont know where to go,
they can call their local health
department.

arms down by placing pressure on the back
of your hands and wrists. Actively resist
your partners efforts so that it takes about
3 seconds for your arms to be down at your
waist level, and then start raising your arms
against your partners continued pressure
for 3 more seconds until you are back at
shoulder level. Repeat this 10 times before
switching positions and letting your partner
do 10 repetitions.
Tip-toe squats
Face each other with your arms fully ex-
tended in front of you, holding hands with
your partner. Both should be standing on
tiptoes and holding that position for 3 sec-
onds. Next, both should drop into a chair
position by bending your knees, squatting
down and pushing your behind backward
until your thighs are parallel to the oor.
While doing this, you should still be on your
tiptoes holding hands. Hold the chair posi-
tion for 3 seconds before lifting back up to
the starting position on your toes. Repeat
10 times.
Single-leg bridge with foot press
Lie on the oor on your back in a straight
line so that your feet touch your partners.
The sole of your right foot should touch
the sole of your partners left foot. Lift your
right foot and your partners left foot about
2 feet off the oor. Keep your left leg bent
to allow you to push your body off the oor
into a bridge position. Your thigh, abs and
chest should form a straight line with your
lower back, and your glutes should be off
the oor. Your partner should be doing the
same thing using his opposite leg. Keep
your right leg engaged by actively pressing
into your partners left foot as your raise and
lower your body from bridge position to
oor position 10 times, holding the bridge
position for 3 seconds with each repetition.
Then switch feet and work the other side
10 times.
Couples hamstring and bicep curls
Lie on the oor face down. Your partner
should kneel on the oor on a mat, rug or
towel, just behind your feet and grasp the
back of your ankles as you raise your feet
toward your back while keeping your knees
on the ground. Stop the motion once your
lower legs are perpendicular to the oor.
Your partner should actively resist this
movement. It should take about 3 seconds
for your feet to travel from the oor to the
upright position. Once at the top, your part-
ner will start to actively pull your ankles
and feet back down to the oor as you re-
sist the effort for 3 more seconds. Your
partner should remain kneeling on the oor
so biceps and arms are working. Repeat 10
times, then switch.
Single-leg squats
Face your partner and extend your arms
toward each other so you are holding hands.
Lift your right foot while your partner lifts
his left foot until both of your thighs are par-
allel to the oor and your toes are touching
each others. Squat with the other leg, try-
ing to get as low as possible. Stay in the low
squat for 3 seconds before lifting back to
upright position. Keep your toes touching
each others and continue holding hands the
entire time. Do 10 repetitions per leg.

A
n amino acid commonly found in the brains of
Alzheimers patients has been discovered in the
spinal uid of people without dementia whose close
relatives were diagnosed with the disease, according
to a study led by Duke University researchers.

The researchers also found
people closely related to an
Alzheimers patient were more
likely to have a smaller-than-
normal hippocampus, the
portion of the brain linked to
memory. The ndings could
help lay the
groundwork for
development of
early- detection
tools, said Erika
Lambert, a Duke
researcher in-
volved in the
project.
Its possible
that these chang-
es are among the
reasons people
with a family his-
tory of Alzheim-
ers are more
likely to get Al-
zheimers, Lam-
bert said
People with a
close family his-
tory of Alzheim-
ers such as a
brother, sister or
parent have a
two- to four-times greater risk
of developing it themselves.
The study, published last
week in the online journal
PLOS ONE, involved 257 peo-
ple ages 55 to 89, all of whom
had average memory functions
or were considered mildly
forgetful, said P. Murali Do-
raiswamy, Duke professor of
psychiatry and medicine and
senior author of the study.
Each person in the study
underwent cognitive assess-
ments, as well as biological
tests. Researchers found that
about 50 percent of healthy
people with a close family con-
nection to Alzheimers could
be considered to have early
signs of the disease, compared
to only about 20 percent of
people without a family his-
tory.
Memory loss signicant
enough to disrupt daily activi-
ties is aprimarysymptomof Al-
zheimers, according to the Al-
zheimers Association. About
25 million people around the
world have Alzheimers dis-
ease a number
that is expected
to grow as the
population ages.
There is no cure.
Common ge-
netic variations
explain about 50
percent of the
heritability of
Alzheimers, but
other genetic fac-
tors inuencing
the disease re-
main unknown.
So far we have
been looking for
genetic factors
with big effects,
but there might
turn out to be a
number of genes
involved, Do-
raiswamy said.
The amino acid found in the
subjects spinal uid is known
as amyloid beta or Abeta,
a component of the plaque
buildup found in the brains of
people with Alzheimers dis-
ease.
Doraiswamy said people
who have Alzheimers in the
family may want to consider
volunteering for research
studies to enhance scientic
knowledge of the illness and
also to reassure themselves
about their own cognitive per-
formance.
If you want to help scien-
tists make advances in the
eld, you could volunteer
as a subject in research studies
that involve regular testing of
memory, he said. Thats also
a way to get reassurance that
your memory is normal.
Researchers
found that about
50 percent of
healthy people
with a close fam-
ily connection to
Alzheimers could
be considered to
have early signs
of the disease,
compared to only
about 20 percent
of people without
a family history.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My hus-
band, Rick, and I
are planning a trip
with our two chil-
dren next month. We
will visit family while
we are there, but
they dont have room
for us to stay in their home.
Rick wants to bring his mother
with us. It will be a tight fit in our car,
but I dont have a problem with that.
What bothers me is that Rick wants
her to stay with us in our hotel room.
I am a very private person. I have a
problem sharing such close quarters
with her. There is NO privacy in a
hotel room!
I offered to get two rooms, but he
feels I am being unreasonable. I feel
three adults plus two children is a lot
to pack into a small hotel room.
AM I being unreasonable? Or
should I just accept it and deal with
being miserable?
Frustrated in the South
Dear Frustrated: Although there
may be exceptions, as a general
rule, adults need their privacy. I am
surprised your mother-in-law would
be willing to go along with such an
arrangement. This is a vacation, and
you should not be miserable when
youre supposed to be enjoying it.
A better solution would be to get
two rooms, and the children should
bunk with their grandmother. That
way you and your husband could en-
joy some private time together.
Dear Abby: I have been with my
boyfriend for seven years. We have
no children together, but he has two
young children from a previous rela-
tionship whom I have been raising as
my own. They call me Mom, but
they know Im not their biological
mother. Their mother has not con-
tacted them or cared to since
the younger one was just months old.
My fear is now that the kids are
getting older, they may want to form
a relationship with her later on. I
dont want to seem selfish, but they
are MY kids. Any girl can have a baby,
but it takes a real woman to be a
mom. How should I handle this when
that time comes?
Dreading the Future in Arizona
Dear Dreading The Future: It is nat-
ural for children to want to know who
their biological parents are; thats the
reason adoption records are no longer
sealed. You appear to fear that your
boyfriends ex-girlfriend will want
to swoop in and steal your maternal
spotlight. From all indications, its
not the case; you are the only mother
they know.
If the children want information
about their birth mother, the truth
should not be kept from them. Meet-
ing her does not guarantee they will
love you any less.
Dear Abby: What is the protocol for
in-person conversations vs. phone
interruptions? When talking with
someone, I feel its rude for the other
individual to respond to voice or text
messages. Cant people take a break
long enough to actually have a real
LIVE conversation? How do other
readers handle this? Do they walk
away? Patiently wait? Or speak up?
Technologically Overloaded in
Virginia
Dear Overloaded: The best approach
is the direct approach. Tell the per-
son, I wish you wouldnt do that.
DEAR ABBY

If three is considered a crowd, then five is a guarantee of misery

ARIES (March 21-April 19). In those
moments when your attention
goes to problems, you are ignor-
ing successes. Progress will
occur faster when you focus on
whats right in your world.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Greater self-control will be
necessary in order to navigate
todays many temptations. If you
muster up the willpower, youll
immediately be rewarded.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Yes, your
responsibilities are many. But
you dont have to handle every-
thing at once. Ordering your
tasks by priority, size and tim-
ing will help you avoid feeling
overwhelmed.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). If you
ask people to do things that
do not come naturally to them,
the process will be a struggle
for both of you. Observe the
strengths of others, and align
your requests accordingly.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Dont under-
estimate how deeply people
might fall in love with you. Your
strange power over heartstrings
is nothing to toy around with. It
wont be fun to be loved much
more than you love.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Just
because something is legal
doesnt mean its moral, and nei-
ther are all illegal acts immoral.
Use your judgment and heed
your conscience.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youll
roll with what happens, not let-
ting any single event deter you
from your purpose. At the same
time, you realize that it is more
important to keep moving along
than it is to arrive at any one
destination.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Most
vengeance is small-minded
and shows a lack of character.
Noble people are also merciful
people. If there are exceptions
to the rule, they are few and far
between.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Your natural passion sometimes
presents itself in the form of
anger. You can avoid getting
angry by removing yourself from
situations that have the potential
to make you blow your stack.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Your mountain-goat side will
be activated. Just because you
dont reach the highest peak
today doesnt mean your climb
was in vain. The altitude you
achieve now will help you with
tomorrows climb.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
People show and interpret affec-
tion differently. What you rec-
ognize as genuine caring might
not register with another person.
Through trial and error, youll
figure out how best to communi-
cate your love.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). When
you think of a certain person,
conflicting emotions arise. To
hold these tumultuous feelings
inside takes complexity, intelli-
gence and a deep soul.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (April 30).
You are talented and powerful.
Honor your many gifts by paying
attention to those who do the
work you dont have to do. The
efforts of outsiders allow you to
grow and master your craft. By
giving your loved ones what they
need, you ensure your happy
existence. Your lucky numbers
are: 10, 8, 5, 6 and 9.
