The council also
announced the hiring
of four part-time trainee
firetruck drivers.
In other matters, City
Administrator Joseph
Moskovitz announced
the citys intentions to
submit a proposal to
assume policing duties
in the borough of Laflin.
City officials would
not estimate what cost
might be involved, but
intend to have every-
thing in place before the
July 22 deadline for pro-
posals.
City officials had been
in discussions earlier in
the year with represen-
tatives from the borough
of Dupont about police
patrols in that commu-
nity but an arrangement
could not be reached.
Dupont ultimately
opted to continue utiliz-
ing its own force of part
time officers.
Also on Wednesday,
Councilman Mike
Lombardo urged the
public to support the
citys Jefferson Park by
attending the Peculiar
Music Festival at the
park on Saturday from
11 a.m. to 11 p.m.
The Pittston-based
Peculiar Culinary Co. is
joining with some local
eateries to sponsor the
festival.
For a $10 admission
fee, people can enjoy
music, food and bever-
ages with all proceeds
benefiting the park.

WASHINGTON The
government contractor that
performed a background inves-
tigation of the man who says
he disclosed two National
Security Agency surveillance
programs is under investiga-
tion, a government watchdog
said Thursday.
Patrick McFarland, the
inspector general at the Office
of Personnel Management,
said during a
Senate hearing
that the con-
tractor, USIS,
is being inves-
tigated and that
the company
performed a
b a c k g r o u n d
i nves t i gat i on
of Edward
Snowden.
McFarland also told law-
makers there may have been
problems with the way the
background check of Snowden
was done, but McFarland and
one of his assistants declined
to say after the hearing what
triggered the decision to inves-
tigate USIS and whether it
involved the companys check
of Snowden.
To answer that question
would require me to talk about
an ongoing investigation.
Thats against our policy,
Michelle Schmitz, assistant
inspector general for investiga-
tions, told reporters after the
hearing.
We are not going to make
any comment at all on the
investigation of USIS.
USIS, which is based in Falls
Church, Va., did not immedi-
ately respond to a request for
comment.
Sen. Claire McCaskill,
D-Mo., said she and her staff
have been told that the inquiry
is a criminal investigation relat-
ed to USIS systemic failure
to adequately conduct inves-
tigations under its contract
with the Office of Personnel
Management.
McCaskill said that USIS con-
ducted a background investiga-
tion in 2011 for Snowden, who
worked for government con-
tractor Booz Allen Hamilton.
Snowden says he is behind the
revelations about the NSAs
collection of Americans phone
records and Internet data from
U.S. Internet companies.
We are limited in what we
can say about this investiga-
tion because it is an ongoing
criminal matter, McCaskill
said.
But it is a reminder that
background investigations can
have real consequences for our
national security.
McFarland told reporters
that his office has the author-
ity to conduct criminal inves-
tigations.
A background investigation
is required for federal employ-
ees and contractors seeking a
security clearance that gives
them access to classified infor-
mation.

KABUL, Afghanistan The
Taliban proposed a deal in which
they would free a U.S. soldier held
captive since 2009 in exchange for
ve of their most senior operatives
at Guantanamo Bay, while Afghan
President Hamid Karzai eased his
opposition Thursday to joining
planned peace talks.
The idea of releasing these Taliban
prisoners has been controversial. U.S.
negotiators hope they would join the
peace process but fear they might
simply return to the battleeld, and
Karzai once scuttled a similar deal
partly because he felt the Americans
were usurping his authority.
The proposal to trade U.S. Army
Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl for the Taliban
detainees was made by senior
Taliban spokesman Shaheen Suhail in
response to a question during a phone
interview with The Associated Press
from the militants newly opened
political ofce in Doha, the capital of
the Gulf nation of Qatar.
The prisoner exchange is the rst
item on the Talibans agenda before
even starting peace talks with the
U.S., said Suhail, a top Taliban gure
who served as rst secretary at the
Afghan Embassy in the Pakistani cap-
ital of Islamabad before the Taliban
governments ouster in 2001.
First has to be the release of
detainees, Suhail said Thursday
when asked about Bergdahl. Yes. It
would be an exchange. Then step by
step, we want to build bridges of con-
dence to go forward.
The Obama administration was
noncommittal about the proposal,
which it said it had expected the
Taliban to make.
Weve been very clear on our feel-
ings about Sgt. Bergdahl and the
need for him to be released, State
Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki
said. We have not made a decision to
transfer any Taliban detainees from
Guantanamo Bay, but we anticipate,
as Ive said, that the Taliban will all
raise this issue.
WASHINGTON
Immigration bill
gains momentum
White House-backed immigration
legislation gained momentum in the
Senate on Thursday as lawmakers
closed in on a bipartisan compromise
to spend tens of billions of dollars
stiffening border security without
delaying legalization for millions liv-
ing in the country unlawfully.
Additional GOP support was
expected as a result of the package of
changes that some backers dubbed a
border surge and GOP Sen. Lindsey
Graham of South Carolina said prac-
tically militarizes the U.S. border
with Mexico.
Under the plan, they said the U.S.
Border Patrol would double in size
with the addition of 20,000 new
agents, 700 more miles of fencing
would be completed and an additional
dozen unarmed surveillance drones
would be purchased.
CONCORD, N.H.
Bombers name on
gun victims list
A gun-control group thats reading
the names of thousands of victims of
gun violence during a national bus
tour apologized for including one of
the Boston Marathon bombing sus-
pects on the list.
The Mayors Against Illegal Guns
stopped in Concord, N.H., on Tuesday
as part of its campaign to build sup-
port for legislation to expand back-
ground checks for gun buyers. Such
legislation failed in the U.S. Senate.
As part of the event, participants
read the names of more than 6,000
Americans killed with guns since the
December massacre at an elementary
school in Newtown, Conn. One of the
names was Tamerlan Tsarnaev, who
died in an exchange of gunfire with
police days after the April 15 bomb-
ings.
LONDON
Third of women
assault victims
About a third of women worldwide
have been physically or sexually
assaulted by a former or current
partner, according to the first major
review of violence against women.
In a series of papers released
on Thursday by the World Health
Organization and others, experts
estimated nearly 40 percent of women
killed worldwide were slain by an inti-
mate partner and that being assaulted
by a partner was the most common
kind of violence experienced by
women.
SAVANNAH, GA.
Paula Deen: I used
the N-word in past
Celebrity cook Paula Deen said
while being questioned in a discrimi-
nation lawsuit that she has used racial
slurs in the past but insisted she and
her family do not tolerate prejudice.
The 66-year-old Food Network star
and Savannah restaurant owner was
peppered with questions about her
racial attitudes in a May 17 deposi-
tion by a lawyer for Lisa Jackson,
a former manager of Uncle Bubbas
Seafood and Oyster House. Deen and
her brother, Bubba Hiers, own the
restaurant.
Jackson sued them last year, saying
she was sexually harassed and worked
in a hostile environment rife with
innuendo and racial slurs.

Developer sees caverns as Noahs Ark for mankind
ATCHISON, Kan. After most of
the worlds population is wiped off the
map by a wayward meteorite or hail
of nuclear missiles, the survival of the
human race might just depend on a
few thousand people huddled in rec-
reational vehicles deep in the bowels
of an eastern Kansas mine.
Thats the vision of a California
man who is creating what he calls the
worlds largest private underground
survivor shelter, using a complex of
limestone caves dug more than 100
years ago beneath gently rolling hills
overlooking the Missouri River.
I do believe I am on a mission and
doing a spiritual thing, said Robert
Vicino, who has purchased a large
portion of the former U.S. Army stor-
age facility on the southeast edge of
Atchison, about 50 miles northwest
of Kansas City, Mo. We will certainly
be part of the genesis.
Before it comes time to ride out
Armageddon or a deadly global pan-
demic, though, Vicino says the Vivos
Survival Shelter and Resort will be a
fun place for members to take vaca-
tions and learn assorted survival
skills to prepare them for whatever
world-changing catastrophe awaits.
Jacque Pregont, president of the
Atchison Chamber of Commerce, said
some people think the shelter plan
sounds creepy or that Vicino has lost
his mind, while others are excited
because they will nally get a chance
to tour the property.
Paul Seyfried, who belongs to a
group that promotes preparing for
manmade or natural disasters, said
Americans have become compla-
cent ever since the death of John
F. Kennedy, the last president who
urged people to build fallout shelters.
There has been no war on our
soil in over 100 years, so the horror
of war is not stamped indelibly in
Americans minds, said Seyfried,
a member of The American Civil
Defense Associations advisory board.
Ken Rose, a history professor at
California State University-Chico, is
an outspoken critic of underground
shelters. Though he acknowledged
that interest in underground shelters
is growing, he called projects like the
Kansas facility a colossal waste of
time and money.
Some people are just obsessed
by this idea, Rose said. Without
minimizing the terror threat here
today, the threats were much greater
at the height of the Cold War. At least
then anxiety was based on a realistic
scenario.

Theres got to be a morning-after without prescription
WASHINGTON The
morning-after pill is finally
going over-the-counter.
The Food and Drug
Administration on Thursday
approved unrestricted sales
of Plan B One-Step, lifting all
age limits on the emergency
contraceptive.
The move came a week
after the Obama administra-
tion ended months of back-
and-forth legal battles by
promising a federal judge
it would take that step.
Womens health advocates
had pushed for easier access
to next-day birth control for
more than a decade.
Over-the-counter access
to emergency contraceptive
products has the potential to
further decrease the rate of
unintended pregnancies in
the United States, FDA drug
chief Dr. Janet Woodcock
said in a statement announc-
ing the approval.
It wasnt clear how quick-
ly Plan B One-Step would
move from behind pharmacy
counters to sit on drugstore
shelves. Until now, custom-
ers could buy that morning-
after pill and competing
generic versions without
a prescription only if they
proved to a pharmacist that
they were 17 or older. FDA
said the product will have to
be repackaged to reflect the
change; maker Teva Womens
Health didnt immediately
respond. FDA has not lifted
age limits on competing
generics.
Social conservatives com-
plain that lifting prescription
requirements undermines
the rights of parents and
could endanger girls.
The morning-after pill
contains a higher dose of
the hormone in regular birth
control pills. Taking it within
72 hours of rape, condom fail-
ure or just forgetting regular
contraception can cut the
chances of pregnancy by up
to 89 percent, but it works
best within the first 24 hours.
If a girl or woman already is
pregnant, the pill, which pre-
vents ovulation or fertiliza-
tion of an egg, has no effect.
Back in 2011, the FDA was
preparing to allow over-the-
counter sales of emergency
contraceptives with no lim-
its when Health and Human
Services Secretary Kathleen
Sebelius overruled her own
scientists in an unprecedent-
ed move.

A Lackawanna County
woman charged with tak-
Woman to be sentenced in theft involving more than $80,000
Sheena DeLazio
sdelazio@timesleader.com
Amy McCamley charged
with taking money from
Independent Chemical Corp.
ing more than $80,000
from a Pittston Township
company will be sentenced
on four related charges
next month, a county
judge said Thursday.
Nothing has been more
devastating than this,
Independent Chemical
Corp. Vice President Josh
Rudin said in a letter writ-
ten to Judge Lesa Gelb.
The effects have been
physical and emotional.
Rudins letter was read
at what was supposed
to be a sentencing hear-
ing for Amy McCamley,
41, of Old Forge. She was
charged in August 2012
with taking $83,203 from
the company where she
worked as a bookkeeper.
McCamleys attorney,
Michael Cammarano, of
Sinking Spring, requested
his clients sentencing hear-
ing be held at a later date so
that she may apply for the
Intermediate Punishment
Program and serve that
sentence in Lackawanna
County. Such a sentence
typically includes a term of
house arrest and probation.
Gelb scheduled another
hearing date for July 1.
Rudin said in his letter
to Gelb that McCamley
has shown little remorse,
and he hopes she sees
the pain she has caused.
Rudin said not only
is the company and his
family affected, but the
faithful employees who
work at the company on
Armstrong Road as well.
McCamley pleaded
guilty in March to charges
of theft by unlawful tak-
ing, theft by deception,
receiving stolen property
and forgery all felonies.
According to court
papers, in April 2012 Rudin
and his father, Sandor,
company president, con-
tacted Pittston Township
police after they were made
aware of suspicious activity
on a credit card account.
The father and son
were notied that Capital
One had been receiving
checks from Independent
Chemical Corp. that were
being applied to a personal
account number belong-
ing to Leonard McCamley,
Amy McCamleys husband.
A local bank ofcial
them with 19 checks total-
ing $50,596 that were put
into Leonard McCamleys
account. A signature on
the checks was indicated
as S Rudin, which Sandor
Rudin said was not his.
The Rudins said they
spoke with Amy McCamley
about the money and she
told them she intended
on putting the money in
the bank. She said the rea-
son she took the money
was because she had an
addiction to pain killers.
McCamley allegedly
said she used the money
to pay off her personal
credit card debt and that
she set up a fake vendor
in the companys com-
puter system to conceal
the checks she was taking,
according to court papers.
McCamley alleg-
edly admitted to taking
approximately $61,000.
The Rudins imme-
diately red her.
Investigators later found
additional checks total-
ing in the thousands that
McCamley falsely endorsed
with Sandor Rudins name.
WILKES-BARRE A
Luzerne County judge
on Thursday threw out
a request to reduce the
number of Hughestown
borough council members
from seven to ve.
Judge Michael Vough
said in a one-page order
Judge nixes request
Sheena DeLazio
sdelazio@timesleader.com
he was denying Marie
Griglocks request due to
improper procedure in l-
ing her petition in April.
Griglock, of Rock Street,
led a petition seeking the
reduction to provide cost
savings (and to ensure)
a more effective govern-
ment without affecting
the quality of representa-
tion of the community.
Griglock, a borough
councilwoman, said
Thursday she was disap-
pointed with the judges
ruling and that she will
rele her request.
Vough said in his rul-
ing that Griglock failed
to advertise her request
in the Luzerne Legal
Register, as required by
the court, and also failed
to include the latest census
numbers in her petition.

NANTICOKE
The Greater Nanticoke
Area School Board on
Thursday night adopted a
nal budget for the 2013-
2014 school year of $24.9
million with a property
tax millage rate of 10.177.
A mill is a $1 tax on
each $1,000 of assessed
valuation.
The board also autho-
rized that any person
whose yearly income from
all sources is less than
$4,000 shall be exempt
from Act 511 LST (local
services tax). Any person
whose yearly income from
all sources is less than
$2,500 shall be exempt
from the Section 679 per
capita tax.
In another matter,
Superintendent Anthony
Perrone said the new
school dress code is being
worked on. Perrone said
some of the changes are
more liberal and some are
not.
A parent in attendance
asked why the school
district is behind in SAT
score averages. GNAs
average is 964, while state
wide average is 992.

Susan Bettinger
Times Leader Correspondent
Perrone said that
changes have been
made. He also pointed
out that GNAhad the high-
est jump in scores of any
school in Luzerne County
up by 18 percent.
The board has approved
the hiring of John Beggs
as head boys basketball
coach for the 2013-2014
school year. The board
has also given approval
for the Frank Novakowski
Driving School to serve
as its third party testing
group.
The board also accept-
ed the resignation of
Dean Meyers, football

MILFORD, Mass. He
parks his silver Mercedes-
Benz sedan behind his
condo, below a deck deco-
rated with white and pink
owers, where a couple of
small dogs bark at the few
passers-by.
Its inside this wooded
golf course community
where neighbors of John
Martorano learned this
week that the 72-year-old
they know only as a cor-
dial fellow resident of a
block called Country Club
Lane is a former mob hit
man.
Well, it means I wont
get into any arguments
with him, one Milford
resident said. Whatever
he says, hes right.
That resident and his
wife, who spoke on the
condition of anonym-
ity because they fear for
their safety if they are
identied, were shocked
to recognize their neigh-
bor Monday while watch-
ing television coverage of
the racketeering trial of
James Whitey Bulger in
Boston.
They said theyd had no
clues that the pleasant,
quiet man they know only
as John, whose compan-
ion brings them cookies
at Christmastime, had a
past as a prolic killer.
There has been noth-
Bulger trial: The hit man
of Country Club Lane
ing to indicate anything
like that, the woman
said Monday. I hope
no one is looking for
him and comes here.
Martorano has admit-
ted to 20 killings but
served only 12 years in
prison as part of a deal
he made with authorities
to testify against former
cohorts.
The resident of Milford,
about 30 miles southwest
of Boston, got out of pris-
on in 2007 and testied
this week for the prosecu-
tion as the government
tries Bulger, the reputed
former Winter Hill Gang
ringleader, for crimes that
include his alleged par-
ticipation in 19 slayings.
Bulger, 83, ed Boston in
1994 and was a fugitive
until his capture in Santa
Monica, Calif., in 2011.
In the past, Martoranos
cooperation with authori-
ties bolstered a corrup-
tion case against a former
FBI agent and helped
them locate the bodies of
six mob victims.
Before his 2004 sen-
tencing, he apologized to
the families of the people
he killed, a sentiment that
some didnt receive well.
Martorano has said he
decided to cooperate with
authorities after learn-
ing Bulger and his other
former partner, Stephen
The Rieman Flemmi,
were FBI informants.
On the witness stand,
Martorano talked Monday
and Tuesday about a
series of killings he car-
ried out while a gang
member in the 1970s.
His cross-examination
by Bulgers defense team
continued Wednesday.
In Milford, Martoranos
neighbor John Ferreira
said he was surprised
Monday to nd out about
his neighbors past, but
said it didnt bother
him. The 60-year-old
said he sometimes sees
Martorano taking the
trash out, and that hes
always been nice.
We just wave hi to
each other. We dont talk
to each other, he said.
At a shopping center
near Martoranos condo,
a convenience store clerk
recognized a picture of
him. She called him a nice
gentleman she knew noth-
ing about except that he
bought $15 to $20 in lot-
tery tickets about once a
month.
Asked at the trial
how he makes a living,
Martorano answered,
Social Security. Later,
he testied that he has
made about $70,000
from Howie Carrs book
Hitman and another
$250,000 from a lm com-
pany. He said hell get
another $250,000 if the
movie is made.
Milford Police Chief
Thomas OLoughlin said
Monday that Martorano
isnt on parole and can
live wherever he wants,
including in this town of
27,000 people. He said
the former hit mans only
brush with the law in
Milford was a minor fend-
er bender in April 2012
that ended with police
writing him a warning for
failure to use caution in
slowing.
Hes been here a couple
years, OLoughlin said.
Ive seen him about the
town like anybody else.
Weve had no difculties
with him.

Bad public service
disheartens voters
I
feel the article about poor voter
participation in the recent election
was too one-sided. Certainly our
turnouts are abysmal and embarrass-
ing, but why? All too often we pick
up the paper only to be confronted
by yet another political scandal.
Many of us vote regularly, but ask
ourselves why we bother; it is dis-
couraging to read about political bad
behavior.
How many times have we believed
promises only to have them broken?
The average voter has become jaded,
disappointed and disheartened.
Conahan, Ciavarella, Skrepanek,
Orie Melvin, need I go on? The very
people in whom we put our trust are
letting us down. We are not at fault,
they are.
Sadly, some of our nest citi-
zens have lost interest in public
service, because they are no longer
optimistic about making a differ-
ence. The truth must be faced. Our
government is dysfunctional. Voter
apathy is the result.Many politicians
remind me of hawks. They waste
our resources and they look greedily
around for another thing to plunder,
often taking from programs that help
children, the needy, the elderly.
They never consider giving up
some of their own perks and bene-
ts, free trips, gas for their personal
vehicles, padded expense accounts,
health and retirement packages, the
list is endless.
In a perfect world a good public
servant would be scrupulously hon-
est. He would have the courage to
do what is moral and right instead
of taking stands which are currently
popular, but are not in the best inter-
ests of his constituents.
This works two ways, when they
do better, so will we.

Editorial
T
He LeVeL of condence
Pennsylvanians have in their
justice system has dropped
again with reports that the
FBI is investigating state Supreme
Court Justice Seamus P. McCaffery.
Federal authorities dont com-
ment on active investigations,
but sources told The Inquirer
that they are looking at the
hundreds of thousands of dol-
lars in attorney referral fees
paid to McCafferys wife, Lise
Rapaport, who is also the jus-
tices chief aide.
Public ofcials cant use
their ofce for personal gain.
But regardless of what tran-
spires in the federal investiga-
tion, Chief Justice Ronald D.
Castille believes McCaffery
acted improperly. Whenever
she received a referral fee,
its marital property, Castille
said. That would appear to be
just given those facts a
violation of the ethics Act.
The obvious animosity between
Castille and McCaffery only adds to
public uneasiness about the court sys-
tem. It doesnt help that McCaffery
reportedly blames Castille for leak-
ing a report the chief justice com-
missioned on Philadelphia Trafc
Court. It suggested that McCaffery
was involved in xing a trafc ticket
issued to his wife.
each allegation against McCaffery
deserves the attention of the states
Judicial Conduct Board, which has
the authority to gure out what hap-
pened. And whether or not any mis-
conduct occurred, the board should
fully disclose its ndings to reassure
the public that a thorough investiga-
tion took place.
The Justice Departments ndings
should be made similarly public.
The FBI does not tend to explain
the results even of lengthy
investigations if they do not
lead to criminal charges.
But with the reputation of
Pennsylvanias highest court
at stake, it should make an
exception. No cloud of uncer-
tainty should be left hanging
over McCaffery.
Castille says that only
the chief justice can give
a court aide permission to
practice law, which he con-
tends Rapaport did by mak-
ing referrals. But an attorney
for the couple says thats not
true. Dion G. Rassias noted
that McCaffery has diligently
reported the referral fees,
which are allowed virtually without
restriction in Pennsylvania.
McCaffery should do more than
that. He should reveal the amount
and source of each referral fee his
wife has received. While there is no
evidence that he ruled on cases for
which Rapaport received a fee, his
lack of disclosure is hardly what one
would expect from someone who
asks others for the whole truth.
Its time to clear the air. Let the
investigations take their course, and
let the public be informed.

There are reasons schools dont make grade
THe STATeS report on our school
childrens performance must concern
students, teachers administrators,
support staff, parents and grandpar-
ents. The citizens and community
leadership responsible for economic
growth must also be taking notice.
There are examples of cities that
declined to the point of no return.
Research will show that in many
cases it began with the regression of
the school systems. Crime rates rise,
home values sink, businesses move
out and families move. I submit that
the aforementioned stakeholders are
not concerned enough to take asser-
tive action.
There were four examples of suc-
cessful school districts. In Luzerne
County, one was the Dallas School
District. The districts superinten-
dent states that part of the reason
is we hire the best. By employing
the best teachers and administrators
you create an efcient think tank of
problem solvers. By hiring the very
best you have on hand profession-
als who truly care about children;
be assured the students are the rst
to recognize this and will respond
accordingly. The Wilkes-Barre
Area School District, following the
appointment of the board members
kin states they hired the most quali-
ed. I prefer we hire the best.
The Dallas district is ranked nation-
ally!
It is frustrating to read what
school leadership identies as the
reasons for poor district achieve-
ment special ed and transit
students. Of course they are part
of the equation, but there are just
too many examples where model
programs/schools have recruited the
at-risk students to enter their school
and have experienced phenomenal
success. One such program was in
Williamsport. Designed after the
German apprenticeship the program
for at risk students excelled to the
point that Peter Jennings American
Agenda evening newscast featured
the program for ve minutes. The
Smithsonian magazine printed
ve pages on the success of this
program. Whats more three of the
highest achievers were invited to the
Rose Garden to meet with President
Bill Clinton; this program is just one
example of many across the United
States.
I observed this program rst hand
that enrolled attendance/discipline
problem children, academically de-
cient students and some potential
drop outs bored with traditional
education.
An outstanding journalist, now
retired, has championed the con-
solidation theory for communities
and school districts. In small school
districts students are short changed
as resources are limited by a small
tax base. A 900-student district has
a board of education, a superinten-
dent, at least two or three principals.
A business ofce with a business
manager adds to the cost of opera-
tion. I am a strong supporter of the
neighborhood schools and districts.
But unfortunately it is apparent at
this time we cant afford to operate
at this low level. Not only does this
affect the operational budget but stu-
dent achievement as well.
The Wilkes-Barre acting superin-
tendent states the States cuts are
devastating. What is devastating is
the cost of fraud, the over-payment
of the districts solicitor, and invest-
ing three million dollars in a football
stadium at a school being considered
for demolition. Then there was
spending $10,000 paid to recruit
a superintendent and hiring an in-
house person who declined the posi-
tion that is devastating. Think
any of the aforementioned may be
the reason the Wilkes-Barre Area
school district students missed 20 of
the requirements?
What are the results of unaccept-
able student test scores? Families
leave the district. This further exac-
erbates the budget shortfall. When
students enroll in cyber or charter
schools the state funding follows
the students. It is a fact that not
all departing students are the low
achievers, in fact it may be a major-
ity of average or above average,
further contributing to test score
declines. Consolidation of facilities
must also be considered as enroll-
ments continue to decline with
charter schools and families leaving
the city. It is incomprehensible for
educators to say the charter and
cyber schools are ruining the public
schools. The public schools are ruin-
ing the public schools. If students
are eeing, they better nd out why.

Plight of North Koreans
persists amid posturing
A
S LAST WeekS abor-
tive meeting between the
two koreas illustrated,
the regions foreign policy
often seems to be at the mercy of
Pyongyangs irrational whims. This
week, North korea was at it again,
proposing high-level talks with
Washington just a few months after
it threatened to bomb Austin, Texas.
While diplomats debate ad in-
nitum, many of North koreas 25
million people live a nightmare.
Human Rights Watch and Amnesty
International estimate that up to
200,000 North koreans, some of them
children, are imprisoned in camps
modeled after the Soviet gulags,
where they are subjected to torture
and forced labor. Millions waste away
in hunger, without freedom of expres-
sion or religion. Arbitrary arrests
and public executions maintain order
by instilling fear. The U.N. Human
Rights Council has condemned North
koreas systematic, widespread, and
grave violations of human rights.
The situation has not improved
since young kim Jong-un succeeded
his father a year and a half ago. His
regime denies the very existence of
prison camps.
Many North koreans are jailed
after failed attempts to cross the
Chinese border. Because the demili-
tarized zone dividing the koreas is
heavily fortied, North koreans can
only escape northward. After the
new government gave a shoot-on-
sight order to curb illegal crossings,
the number of defectors was almost
halved, to 1,500 last year.
For those fortunate enough to
make it to China, the journey has
only begun. In violation of interna-
tional agreements, China routinely
repatriates North korean refugees.
So defectors face a 3,000-mile clan-
destine journey to Southeast Asia
to gain refugee status and entry to
South korea, where they are natu-
ralized and given government sti-
pends. While around 25,000 have
settled there, more than 30,000
North korean refugees live illegally
in China.
Humanitarian organizations such
as Liberty in North korea (LiNk)
and Helping Hands korea facilitate
their journeys. The Rev. Tim Peters,
a North korea activist, has compared
the network to the Underground
Railroad that once helped African-
American slaves from the South
reach the North. While these organi-
zations make up a small bandage for
the hemorrhaging, more relief may
be achievable through diplomacy.
Although Pyongyang often appears
impervious to international pres-
sure, recent nudging from its sole
ally, China, has served to moderate
its bellicosity. During last weeks
Sino-American summit, Presidents
Obama and Xi Jinping found com-
mon ground on the need to denu-
clearize North korea. They should
extend the discussion to the plight of
North koreas people.
even as President George W. Bush
denounced North korea as part of
the axis of evil, he separated poli-
tics from people by signing the 2004
North korean Human Rights Act to
help its refugees settle in America.
Obama should follow Bushs example
by backing South korean leaders per-
sistent call for Beijing to stop repa-
triating defectors. With new leader-
ship in the koreas, Japan, and China,
the Obama administration has a rare
window of opportunity to champion
human rights in Northeast Asia.

take their
course, and
let the public
be informed.
EDWARDSVILLE Leonard and
Ruth Strope, both 89, were among
hundreds who showed up at the
Edwardsville Senior Citizens Center
on Thursday for farmers market
vouchers.
The Stropes, of Wilkes-Barre, and
married for 67 years, each received
vouchers worth $20 that can be used
to buy fresh vegetables and fruit.
Every little bit helps, Leonard
Strope said. Its a good program.
Ruth Strope said the program, run
by the Area Agency on Aging, is a
good system.
Rhonda Adams, coordinator of
the agencys Senior Framers Market
Nutrition Program, said 10,500
vouchers were distributed to area
seniors in 2012 and she expects more
than 11,000 to be given out this year.
The vouchers help seniors in need
and the program helps local farmers,
Adams said of the program funded
by the federal and state agriculture
departments.
Adams said to be eligible a person
must be 60 years old or turn 60 this
year and must reside in Luzerne or
Wyoming county. Income eligibility is
$21,257 for a one-person household,
$28,694 for two-person household,
$36,131 for three people and $43,568
for four people. Larger households
need to check with ofcials to deter-
mine eligibility.
Each eligible person receives four
vouchers worth $5 each, for a total of
$20. They can be used one at a time
or all at once, Adams said.
The voucher are distributed at the
senior centers operated by the Area
Agency on Aging of Luzerne and
Wyoming counties. Those eligible
can obtain the vouchers at any senior
center.
The schedule is as follows:
Today, Falls Senior Center and
Lake Winola Center.
Monday, Shickshinny.
Tuesday, Plymouth Center.
June 27, Sweet Valley.
June 28, White Haven.
For more information, Adams can
be reached at 822-1158. The vouchers
are valid through Nov. 30.
Eligible recipients are given a list
of participating farmers.
The program helps seniors who
may be nutritionally at risk, Adams
said.
still high and we are
seeing more and more
people coming to us for
help.
Hunt said that when a
program such as SNAP is
cut, local food programs
are affected.
Any kind of cut will
have a signicant impact,
she said. We understand
there is a federal decit,
but you cant make it up
by cutting programs that
help families feed their
children.
Hunt said she was at a
food program on Monday
and she noticed the faces
of hunger are changing.
Hunger is far reaching,
she said. Its the family of
four living next door.
Hunt and Kutz said
they provide nutrition
education programs and
attendance has increased
in recent weeks. They
teach people how to eat
properly and shop for
nutritional foods.
The numbers are
constantly going up, Kutz
said. Were struggling to
keep up with the demand.
At the St. Vincent
de Paul Kitchen in
Wilkes-Barre, Monsignor
Joseph Kelly said the
kitchen is serving record
numbers of hungry
people.
In May we set an all-
time high in meals served
in our 30-year history,
Kelly said. Already in
June, we are ahead of
Mays numbers, and I
dont expect it to get
better anytime soon.
Kelly said it doesnt
make sense to cut SNAP.
Food stamps only last
until the 17th or 18th
of the month, he said.
Then people are looking
for food and they arrive
at our doorstep at the
kitchen.
Kelly said the food
stamp allocation has not
increased in ve years,
while the price of food has
risen signicantly.
You cant buy as much
today as you could ve
years ago, he said.
He said cutting the
SNAP program will
make it more difcult for
organizations like Catholic
Social Services, where
he serves as executive
director, to secure the
donations to purchase the
food needed to provide
the increased meals. The
kitchen is serving nearly
400 meals per day an
extraordinary change, he
said.
Will we be able to make
up the difference? I really
dont know, Kelly said.

Call Congress
Gretchen Hunt and Rich Kutz at the Weinberg Food
Bank urge people to help send a message to Congress
by calling their local elected officials in Washington,
D.C., to demonstrate strong support for programs that
help put food on the table for Americans struggling
with hunger.
Heres how:
Call the toll-free hot line at 866-527-1087
Listen to the pre-recorded message and enter your
zip code when prompted. Once you are connected to
your Representative, state that you are a constituent
and give your name and the town you are calling from.
Be sure to give the name of the food bank or local
agency you are affiliated with.
Let them knowyou are calling about the Farm Bill and
deliver this important message:
As your constituent, I amasking you to vote against
the House FarmBill due to the cuts to SNAP. With so
many families still struggling to put food on the table,
it is important to protect and strengthen programs like
SNAP. I understand the need to reduce the deficit, but
increasing hunger is not the way to do it.

season opener for the Farmers Market on Thursday.
the bill with many Republicans
arguing that the proposed cuts
didnt go deep enough w while
24 Democrats voted in favor.
Among the regions congressional del-
egation, Rep. Tom Marino, R-Lycoming
Twp., voted for the bill, while Rep. Matt
Cartwright, D-Moosic, voted against it.
While the Farm Bill had many provi-
sions that would have streamlined and
improved our nations agriculture policy,
I could not vote in favor of a $20 billion
cut to the SNAP Program, Cartwright
said, referring to the total reduction
planned over 10 years.
These drastic cuts would have resulted
in 2 million of the nations poorest being
kicked off of the program, left more than
210,000 children without school break-
fast or lunch, and pushed more families
into poverty, Cartwright added. That is
amoral and not the American way.
House Agriculture Committee
Chairman Frank Lucas, R-Okla., argued
the bill was necessary to avoid farm cri-
ses of the past and that it contained some
of the biggest reforms in years. If it
fails today I cant guarantee youll see in
this Congress another attempt, he said
before the vote.
The Senate overwhelmingly passed its
versionofthefarmbilllastweek,withabout
$2.4 billion a year in overall cuts and a
$400 million annual decrease in food
stamps one-ffth of the House bills
food stamp cuts. If the two chambers
cannot come together on a bill, farm-
state lawmakers are likely to push for
an extension of the 2008 farm bill that
expires in September.
SNAPs local economic impact
Cartwright also expressed fears about
how reduced SNAP funding could impact
the economy once those aid dollars were
no longer being spent at food stores in
Pennsylvania and across the country.
He cited research by Moodys Analytics
estimating that every $1 increase in
SNAP benets can generate about
$1.70 in economic activity in an ailing
economy.
The operators of two area supermarket
chains understand that concept all too
well.
It defnitely affects us, said Jeff
Krenitsky, who owns a convenience
store and three supermarkets, including
Quinns Market in Pittston.
On an average day, Quinns might
see between $1,000 and $3,000
worth of food-stamp sales, but that
can jump to between $8,100 and
$8,900 when the bi-weekly SNAP
disbursements reach recipients. As well,
Krenitsky said the stores commonly bring
in more staff to handle the increased
patronage after SNAP payments go out.
Joe Fasula, co-owner of Gerritys and
its nine markets in Lackawanna and
Luzerne counties, said the bi-weekly
food-stamp bump can vary from store to
store, but may be as much as 1o percent,
which could mean an extra $25,000 to
$50,000, depending on location.
At the Save-A-Lot store on South Main
Street in Wilkes-Barre, a discount gro-
cery which opened last fall and which is
operated by Fasula and his family, there
are times when half of all business comes
from SNAP customers, he said.
Its hard to know what the right
answer is, Fasula said when asked about
his views on the farm bill and proposed
SNAP cuts. Certainly, there would be an
impact on the grocery business, but to
me it is most important to look at what is
best for the country and what is best for
the people in need.

SANFORD, Fla. Ajury
of six women was picked
Thursday to decide the sec-
ond-degree murder trial of
George Zimmerman, a for-
mer neighborhood watch
volunteer who says he fatal-
ly shot Trayvon Martin, an
unarmed black teenager, in
self-defense.
Prosecutors have said
Zimmerman, 29, racially
proled the 17-year-old
Martin as he walked back
from a convenience store
on a rainy night in February
2012 wearing a dark hood-
ed shirt.
Race and ethnicity have
played a prominent role in
the case and even clouded
jury selection. While the
court did not release the
racial makeup of the jury,
the panel appeared to
reporters covering jury
selection to be made up of
ve white women and a
sixth who may be Hispanic.
Zimmerman identifes
himself as Hispanic.
After Thursdays hear-
ing, Zimmermans attorney
Mark OMara was asked
what he would say to peo-
ple concerned there were
no black jurors.
People can look at it and
have this response that
theres no blacks on the
jury, or no this or no that,
or no men on the jury, he
said. Tell me that we did
something wrong in the
process and Ill agree with
you.
Prosecutors refused to
comment for the duration
of the trial.
Two of the jurors recent-
ly moved to the area
one from Iowa and one
from Chicago and two
are involved with rescuing
animals as their hobbies.
One juror had a prior
arrest, but she said it
was disposed of and she
thought she was treated
fairly. Two jurors have
guns in their homes. All of
their names have been kept
condential and the panel
will be sequestered for the
trial.
Opening statements are
scheduled for Monday.
The central Florida com-
munity of Sanford is in
Seminole County, which is
78.5 percent white and 16.5
percent black.
Prosecutors and defense
attorneys chose the panel
of six jurors after almost
two weeks of jury selec-
tion. In Florida, 12 jurors
are required only for crimi-
nal trials involving capital
cases, when the death pen-
alty is being considered.
All-women jury chosen for George Zimmermans trial
Five white
women and one
Hispanic will

MIAMI LeBron James had 37
points and 12 rebounds and the Miami
Heat repeated as champions with a 95-88
victory over the San Antonio Spurs in
Game 7 of the NBA Finals on Thursday
night.
Dwyane Wade added 23 points and 10
rebounds and Shane Battier scored 18
points on 6-for-8 shooting from 3-point
range for Miami. James made 5 of 10
3s, all the while hounding Spurs star
Tony Parker on defense to make the Heat
the rst back-to-back champs since the
Lakers in 2009-10.
Tim Duncan had 24 points and 12
rebound for the Spurs, who were trying
to become the rst road team to win a
nals Game 7 since Washington in 1978.
Kawhi Leonard added 19 points and 16
rebounds.
Mario Chalmers scored 14 for Miami.
San Antonio lost for the rst time in
ve nals appearances.
Both teams picked it up after a ragged
rst half, laying the groundwork for a
heart-pounding nish to what has been a
thriller of a series.
Despite their relative wealth of
experience, both teams looked a
little nervous and a little gassed
from an epic Game 6 two nights
ago.
Green, for ve games the
favorite for nals MVP thanks to
his record-setting 3-point shoot-
ing, missed his rst eight shots,
while Game 6 hero Ray Allen
was 0 for 4 with three turnovers
for Miami.
Duncan put up 30 points and
17 rebounds in a throwback per-
formance, but James scored 16 of
his 32 points in the fourth quar-
ter and posted his second triple-
double of the nals and Ray
Allen made a 3-pointer with 5.2
seconds to go that forced over-
time and rescued the Heat.
The stunned Spurs had to try to nd
one more reservoir of energy to nish this
series out, and their big fella had plenty
of juice early, getting a steal at the top of
the key and dribbling the length of
the court for a dunk and later block-
ing a dunk attempt from Bosh.
James missed four of his rst six
shots, but he hit consecutive 3s in
the third quarter to give the Heat a
62-57 lead, bringing the white-clad
home crowd to their feet.
Duncan just wouldnt let the
Spurs fade. After Boris Diaw hit a
3-pointer, the 37-year-old converted
a layup for a 65-64 lead, and back
and forth they went.
Mario Chalmers 3-pointer at the
third-quarter buzzer gave the Heat
the lead going into the nal quarter
of the season.
For a series that has swung
back and forth so wildly from
game to game and quarter to
quarter it had to go the dis-
tance. The two teams traded victo-

The NFL had come call-
ing. Bill OBrien listened,
but he chose to stay with
Penn State back in January.
In a press conference
that followed in State
College, the Nittany Lions
coach said he made no
nancial demands in order
to return.
I have never asked any-
one for a raise, and no
one has ever even brought
up the fact that you get a
raise, OBrien said on Jan.
7. Hey, look six months
down the road, if I get a
raise Would you like a
raise? Everybody would
like a raise every once in
a while. Yeah, of course Id
like a raise. Im just like
everybody else. But I have
never asked anybody for a
raise.
Five months and 13 days
later, he got a raise.
Just before OBrien was
scheduled to receive an
annual 5 percent bump in
his base salary, Penn State
upped the gure by nearly
$1 million as part of an
amended contract that was
released on Thursday.
Over the next four years,
OBrien will make near-
ly $2 million more than
originally scheduled when
he signed the contract in
January 2012.
In the face of great
adversity, Bill did a tre-
mendous job with all facets
of the Penn State football
program, Penn State ath-
letic director Dave Joyner
said in a statement. This
rightly recognizes Bills
outstanding achievements
in guiding our student-ath-
letes on and off the eld.

CHICAGO So much for all
the talk about the impenetrable
goalies, and forget about those
lane-clogging defensemen.
It was all about the offense
in Game 4, and the hangover
could extend into the nal
three games of the deadlocked
Stanley Cup nal.
Chicagos 6-5 overtime vic-
tory at Boston on Wednesday
night was the highest-scoring
game in this years NHL play-
offs. There were breakaways,
rebounds, long slap shots and
tips. Eleven goals in all, coming
from all over the ice.
It all raises questions about
how the remainder of this com-
pelling series will look.
I guess a series like this can
take some unexpected turns
sometimes, and you saw that
last night, Blackhawks captain
Jonathan Toews said. Im not
going to make any predictions
for what happens in the next
game, but obviously theres a
lot of things we want to carry
into this game, Game 5, here.
The biggest variable could be
the recovery of goalies Tuukka
Rask of the Bruins and Corey
Crawford of the Blackhawks,
who have a couple days to nd
their game again before the
series resumes in Chicago on
Saturday night.
Rask and Crawford had been
the best two goalies in the
playoffs before each of them
stumbled under heavy pressure
in Game 4. Rask gave up too
many prime rebound opportu-
nities, and Crawford was beat-
en repeatedly on his glove side.
Every goal is stoppable,
but I dont think there was any
weak one, so to speak, said
Rask, who was coming off a
2-0 shutout and had allowed
just eight goals in the previous
eight playoff games. Mistakes
piled up and I wasnt able to
bail our guys out. Sometimes
you do, sometimes you dont.
Crawford was great in each
of the rst two nals games in
Chicago. He had 51 saves in the
three-overtime series opener,
keeping the Blackhawks in the
game long enough for Andrew
Shaw to score the winning goal
in a 4-3 victory.
Crawford had 33 stops when
the series shifted to Boston
for Game 3, but Chicago was
unable to get anything going
against Rask. And then came
more of the glove-side prob-
lems on Wednesday night that
the Bruins have exploited all
series long.
A couple tough breaks last
night, especially when we had
the lead at 3-1 or 4-2, Boston
is going to open up a little bit,
Blackhawks forward Patrick
Kane said Thursday. I think for

DES MOINES, Iowa In
researching wrestling for the
upcoming lm Foxcatcher,
director Bennett Miller kept
coming back to a simple ques-
tion.
Why?
Miller wondered what drove
wrestlers to suffer through tre-
mendous hardship, dedicate
themselves so completely and
compete so intensely despite lit-
tle promise of tangible rewards.
Miller, an Oscar-nominated
director perhaps best known
for directing Moneyball,
found the answers deeply
moving and highly personal.
The experience quickly
turned him into a supporter
of a sport now ghting for its
Olympic existence.
The reason why people
wrestle felt more pure to me,
Miller told The Associated
Press in a phone interview on
Wednesday. If youre in that
sport, youre not doing it for
money and youre not doing it
to become famous. I found that
an impressively high concen-
tration of people were in it the
intrinsic values of it.
Those efforts could lead to
one of the most inuential
movies ever connected to wres-
tling.
Foxcatcher, which is set
to be released in late 2013,
tells the story of John du Pont,
the chemical fortune heir who
killed Olympic gold medal-
winning wrestler Dave Schultz
at his estate near Philadelphia
in 1996. Schultz, a 1984 gold
medal winner, had come to live
and train at the state-of-the-art
Foxcatcher National Training
Center that du Pont had built
on his 800-acre property.
After the shooting, du Pont
barricaded himself inside his
home for two days, but was
taken into custody when he
left his mansion to x a boil-
er police had shut off. Found
guilty but mentally ill in the
slaying, he died in prison in
2010 at the age of 72.
The movie features Steve
Carell as du Pont, Mark Ruffalo
as Dave Schultz and Channing
Tatum as his brother, Mark
Schultz. Miller, the cast and the
crew spent years working on
the movie, and the experience
persuaded Ruffalo to assist
the U.S.-based Committee to
Preserve Olympic Wrestling.
The IOC recommended in
February that wrestling be left
out of the Olympics in 2020.
But last month it was one of
three sports selected to com-
pete for the last provisional spot
in the 2020 and 2024 Olympic
Games, along with squash and
a combined bid from baseball/
softball. A nal vote is expect-
ed by the IOC general assembly
during its meeting in Buenos
Aires in September.
Ruffalo attended the exhibi-
tion between the U.S., Russia
and Iran in New York in May
and he also shot a public ser-
vice announcement for CPOW
that was released Tuesday.

sport has motivated peo-

MIAMI New England
Patriots tight end Aaron
Hernandez, already connect-
ed to a homicide victim in
Massachusetts, is being sued
in South Florida by a man
claiming Hernandez shot him
in the face after they argued at
a strip club.
The lawsuit led late
Wednesday by 30-year-old
Alexander Bradley comes as
police in New England inves-
tigate the death of 27-year-
old semi-pro player Odin
Lloyd. Lloyds body was found
in an industrial park near
Hernandezs home in North
Attleborough, Mass. Lloyds
family has said he had some
connection to Hernandez but
would not elaborate.
In his federal lawsuit seek-
ing at least $100,000 in dam-
ages, Bradley claims he and
Hernandez were with a group
in February at Tootsies club
in Miami when the two got
into an argument. Later, as
they were driving to Palm
Beach County, Bradley claims
Hernandez shot him with a
handgun, causing him to lose
his right eye.
Bradley, who is from
Connecticut, also suffers
from jaw pain, headaches,
permanent injury to his right
hand and arm and will prob-
ably need further surgery,
according to the lawsuit. He
has already undergone facial
reconstruction surgery and
has plates and screws in the
right side of his face.
Bradley will require exten-
sive medical care and treat-
ment for the rest of his life,
the four-page lawsuit says.
Bradley did not mention
Hernandez in a Palm Beach
County Sheriff s Ofce report
at the time. Bradley, found
shot and bleeding Feb. 13 in
an alley behind a John Deere
store, insisted to investigators
he did not know who shot him
and gave only a vague descrip-
tion of possible assailants. A
store employee found Bradley
after hearing a shot outside,
but the stores video surveil-
lance system wasnt working.

six games, with blowouts in
Games 2-5 sandwiched between
classics in Game 1 and Game 6.
This was just the sixth Game
7 in an NBA Finals in the last
35 years, and the gravity of of
the situation certainly hit home
with the players.
All of our legacies are tied
to this moment, this game,
Allen said. Its something our
kids will be able to talk about
that they were a part of. Forever
will remember these moments,
so we want to not live and have
any regrets.
Luminaries including Bill
Russell, Cal Ripken Jr., Jack
Nicklaus and the hip-hop star
Drake were in attendance for
this highly anticipated matchup
that had so much on the line for
both teams.
For James and the Heat, it
was a chance to cement them-
selves atop the NBA universe.
A second straight title would
thrust the Heat into the same
sentence of some of the great
franchises who have gone back-
to-back, and complete James
takeover of the league in gener-
al, something Duncan predicted
in 2007.
After the Spurs swept James
Cleveland Cavaliers six years
ago, Duncan found the emerg-
ing young superstar for a quiet
moment amid all the celebra-
tion. Duncan told James that
this league would one day be
his, and James has been prov-
ing him right over the last three
years.
But a loss on Thursday night
on his home oor would have
dropped James to 1-3 in NBA
Finals appearances and led
many of the Heats legion of
critics to pronounce this super
team a failure. Such were the
expectations when James, Wade
and Bosh united three summers
ago, starting the pursuit of not
one, not two, not three titles.
They lost to Dallas in their
rst season together, dropping
Game 6 on their home oor,
but rebounded to blow by the
Oklahoma City Thunder last
season for James rst champi-
onship.
This season was supposed to
be more of a second coronation
ceremony for the defending
champs rather than a competi-
tion, but its been more difcult
than anyone ever imagined.
The Pacers pushed the Heat
to seven games in the Eastern
Conference nals, and these
proud Spurs had them on the
ropes here in Game 6 when
James and Allen swooped in to
save the day.
The Spurs held a ve-point
lead and were 21 seconds away
from their fth championship
when James hit a 3-pointer
and Allen knocked another one
down with 5.2 seconds left to
force overtime.
The stunned Spurs, who
arent used to letting leads slip
away in the closing moments,
were outlasted in overtime and
spent the next day and a half
trying to come to grips with the
opportunity they lost.
That was a devastating loss,
Spurs coach Gregg Popovich
said before the game. To say
anything less would be disin-
genuous.
The Spurs held a team din-
ner after that game, leaning on
each other to get through it and
answer the bell for Game 7.
A victory would mean a
remarkable 14 years between
Duncans rst title in 1999 and
his fth. It would also validate
the Spurs decision to stick with
their core of Duncan, Parker
and Ginobili for a decade plus,
even when they had gone six
years between nals appear-
ances.

Hernandezs lawyer did not
immediately respond Thursday
to an email seeking comment
about the lawsuit. The law-
suit does not mention how
Hernandez and Bradley are
acquainted.
In another development
Thursday, police in Providence,
R.I., said Hernandez was taunt-
ed in May by a man at a night-
club near the Brown University
campus but walked away. The
man followed Hernandez
for three blocks and a crowd
formed, held back by police
while Hernandez got into his
vehicle and left.
Meanwhile, in
Massachusetts, family and
police were mum on the nature
of Hernandezs relationship
to Lloyd, who played for the
Boston Bandits semi-pro team.
Media camped out Thursday
at Hernandezs home, on the
Rhode Island state line not far
from the Patriots stadium in
Foxborough. A news helicopter
followed along as Hernandez
drove in a white SUV from his
home to the stadium, then got
out and went inside.
Patriots spokesman Stacey
James said the team had no
comment on why Hernandez
was there. He said earlier that
the team did not anticipate
commenting publicly during
the police investigation.
A Massachusetts State Police
emergency response team on
Thursday was searching the
brush with metal detectors and
poles on a road leading to the
entrance to Hernandezs subdi-
vision.
Hernandez attorney Michael
Fee acknowledged media
reports about the state police
search of Hernandezs home
as part of an investigation but
said he and the player wouldnt
have any comment on it.
Lloyds mother, Ursula Ward,
would not say how Lloyd knew
Hernandez and did not say
whether police told her how her
son died. An uncle said Lloyd
had a connection to Hernandez
but wouldnt elaborate.
Bristol District Attorney
Samuel Sutters ofce said
investigators were asking for
the publics help to nd a silver
mirror cover believed to have
broken off a car between Boston
and North Attleborough.
On Wednesday, at least
seven state troopers searched
both sides of a road just off the
street where Hernandez lives.
The ofcers used thin poles
to pull back plants and search
through undergrowth along the
road.
The Patriots drafted
Hernandez out of Florida in
2010. Since then, he has com-
bined with Rob Gronkowski to
form one of the top tight end
duos in the NFL. He missed
10 games last season with an
ankle injury and had shoulder
surgery in April but is expected
to be ready for training camp.
Last summer, the Patriots gave
him a ve-year contract worth
$40 million.
Hernandez said after he was
drafted that he had failed a
drug test while with the Gators
and had been upfront with NFL
teams about the issue.
Sports Illustrated report-
ed that the link between
Hernandez and the case was
a rented Chevrolet Suburban
with Rhode Island plates that
police had been searching for.
The Associated Press could
not independently conrm the
report.
Lloyds neighbor Larry
Connors said a black Suburban
with Rhode Island license
plates was towed out of the
yard of Lloyds house after his
body was found. Lloyd had
been driving it for a few days,
but Connors had never seen it
before that.

$997,500 on July 1 as part of an
annual raise. His new base salary for
2013 will be $1,932,779. It will dip
to $1,137,096 in 2014 before rising
to $1,650,994 for 2015. The annual
5 percent gure will return after that.
The base contract runs through the
2016 season.
Including appearance fees and an
annual stipend from Nike, OBriens
total compensation will average
roughly $3.2 million over the next
four seasons. That gure places him
third in the Big Ten behind only Ohio
States Urban Meyer ($4.3 million)
and Iowas Kirk Ferentz ($3.9 mil-
lion). Michigans Brady Hoke also
receives total compensation of $3.2
million.
In addition to an increase in base
salary, the amended contract includes:
A reduced buyout for OBrien
should he leave for an NFL job. Under
any other circumstances, OBrien
would have to pay Penn State his
full compensation the base salary,
appearance fees and Nike stipend
for each year he had remaining on the
contract.
But if he leaves specically for
a head coaching position with any
National Football League team, he is
only required to pay the base salary
for each remaining year.
A way to claim performance
bonuses that were made unreachable
by NCAA sanctions. For the next
three seasons, OBrien cant qualify
for bonuses for bowl game appear-
ances, conference titles or national
titles because Penn State is ineligible
for the postseason.
The amended contract allows for
OBrien to earn up to $200,000 per
year that Penn State estimates that
Coach might have earned had such
sanctions not been imposed, tak-
ing into consideration the teams
record, records of other teams in the
Conference, estimated chances of
success and other relevant factors.
Use of a private plane for recruit-
ing and other university business for
up to 85 hours per year, 35 of which
can be for personal use.
All of this comes 11 months to the
week that the sanctions hit the pro-
gram.
Since then, OBrien has been
tasked with keeping the Nittany
Lions from outright collapse, as play-
ers were permitted to transfer with-
out penalty. He also had to keep in
line a recruiting class that faced the
prospect of not being able to play in
a bowl game or compete for confer-
ence and national titles during their
college careers.
Through it all, Penn State went 8-4
in 2012 and OBrien won the Bear
Bryant Award for national coach of
the year. He received the same honor
from the Maxwell Football Club and
ESPN and was also voted Big Ten
Coach of the Year by coaches and
media.
All of that led to speculation about
OBriens future in the offseason, as
he interviewed with the Philadelphia
Eagles and the Cleveland Browns
about their vacant coaching jobs. But
OBrien quickly recommitted to Penn
State when word of those meetings
leaked in January.
Penn State revealed Thursday that
the possibility of a bump for OBrien
was discussed last winter.
Dave and I had talked about
revising Coach OBriens contract at
the end of the season, Penn State
President Rodney Erickson said in
a statement. And these discussions
moved forward with my blessing and
involvement.
The Big Ten Network reported
Thursday that OBrien recently
switched agents from Joe Linta to
Neil Cornrich. Among Cornrichs cli-
ents as an agent and an attorney is
OBriens former boss, New England
Patriots coach Bill Belichick.

A shot by Blackhawks right wing Patrick Kane, left, sails past Bruins goalie Tuukka Rask (40), during the second period in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals Wednesday. Blackhawks center Jonathan
Toews (19), and Bruins defensemen Andrew Ference (21) watch. Chicago won 6-5 to even the series 2-2.
for us that we can play better defensive-
ly, maybe get in some shooting lanes
and block some of those shots.
Chicago held leads of 1-0, 3-1, 4-2
and 5-4, but Boston rallied each time.
The glove-side issue is a tricky little
one for coach Joel Quenneville and the
Blackhawks, who know thats where the
Bruins are trying to go, but dont want
Crawford to focus so much on that area
that it gets into his head.
Were very comfortable with Corey,
Quenneville said, dismissing the idea
of inserting backup Ray Emery. Corey
has been rock solid all year for us, and
when hes got the ball, hes been out-
standing, and hes the biggest reason
why were here today.
Rask was working on a shutout
streak of 129 minutes, 14 seconds when
Michal Handzus had a beautiful slid-
ing score in the rst period Wednesday
night off a nice pass from Brandon Saad
on a fast break.
It was a sign of things to come for the
Bruins, who had sustained trouble with
the Blackhawks speed for the rst time
in the series.
Marcus Kruger completed a 2-on-1
break in the second period with his third
goal of the playoffs. Kruger and Michael
Frolik got down the ice so quickly that
there was time for Kruger to poke home
his own rebound after Rask stopped his
rst attempt.
I thought we gave them a lot of
space, Bruins coach Claude Julien
said. It doesnt mean they dont have
a pace to their game, but it means we
gave them too many options. And the
neutral zone for me, not just on the fore-
check but even our neutral zone on the
counter wasnt very good.
Zdeno Chara, Bostons 6-foot-9 defen-
seman, was back during the rush by
Kruger and Frolik but was unable to
break it up. The 2009 Norris Trophy win-
ner was on the ice for ve of Chicagos
six goals, with the Blackhawks using
their speed to make life difcult on the
captain of the Bruins.
I think he was OK, Julien said.
Theres no doubt they went after him
and he was OK, because our whole
team was OK. I dont think anybody on
our team can stand up today and say I
thought I had a great game, and thats
why were sitting here today tied 2-all.
The move by Quenneville to put
Toews and Kane back together on a line
with Bryan Bickell also played a role
in the rough night for Chara and Rask.
Toews had a tip-in for his rst goal
since May 25 against Detroit, snapping
a 10-game drought. Kane had a nifty
rebound score for his rst goal of the
series.
The productive night for that line
Bickell had two assists and was cred-
ited with six hits could lead to some
adjustments for Boston in the pivotal
Game 5.
I think you want to learn from every
game, regardless of if you win or lose,
said Bruins center Chris Kelly, who
failed to convert a prime scoring oppor-
tunity on Wednesday night. Like win-
ning, you want to put the game behind
you. Its in the past, theres nothing you
can do about it. Look to the next one.

keep it in the Olympics and
motivated enough people to
push the IOC to reconsider,
Ruffalo said of the push to save
Olympic wrestling.
Ruffalo, who was nominated
an Academy Award for his work
in The Kids Are All Right,
has long held a personal con-
nection to wrestling. Ruffalos
father, Frank, was a standout
wrestler in his youth, and he
encouraged his son to compete
as well. Ruffalo wrestled from
seventh through 11th grade in
Wisconsin and Virginia Beach,
Va.
It was profound for me,
Ruffalo said. It was probably
the most as far as training
for the world, my career and
success wrestling played a
big part in that.
The amount of discipline
and determination and will
and just moxie that you have to
have to be a wrestler.
Ruffalo said he put on 30
pounds to play Schultz, who
won gold at the Los Angeles
Games at 74 kilograms.
Ruffalo, Tatum and others
worked with several members
of USA Wrestling in an effort
to accurately portray the sport.
They really opened up their
arms to me once they saw I
could really wrestle, Ruffalo
said. Theyre a very tight-knit
group of people that are protec-
tive of their sport its just a
classy, classy, classy group of
people.
Filming also opened the eyes
of Miller, who acknowledged
that he was neither familiar
with nor particularly interest-
ed in wrestling until he started
work on Foxcatcher.
One of the rst people
Miller met through USA
Wrestling was Dave Bennett,
an eye doctor who gave up his
practice to pursue his passion
for coaching and working with
wrestlers.
What drew into this movie
is a story that, to be hon-
est had nothing to do with
wrestling I was interested
in the characters, the whole
story, Miller said. During
the research, I went to vari-
ous tournaments and got to
know wrestlers and about the
sport, and it really drew me in.
It altered my perceptions, and
learning about the sport was
like a portal into a new under-
standing and appreciation for
the value system.

LeBron James celebrates winning his second NBAChampionship on Thursday.
NEW YORK Evan
Longoria homered twice and
drove in three runs, and Matt
Moore ended a personal three-
game skid in Tampa Bays 8-3
victory over the New York
Yankees on Thursday.
Longoria reached 500 career
RBIs with a sacrice y in
the third inning. He homered
against Andy Pettitte (5-5)
leading off the sixth and con-
nected off Joba Chamberlain
to open the eighth.
Yunel Escobar hit a two-run
shot off Boone Logan later
in the eighth. Tampa Bay
had 14 hits after totaling 15
in a 6-2 win over Boston on
Wednesday night.
Moore (9-3) pitched into the
seventh inning and gave up
three runs.
Tigers 4, Red Sox 3
DETROIT Jhonny
Peralta hit a two-run homer off
Andrew Bailey in the bottom
of the ninth inning to give the
Detroit Tigers a victory over
the Boston Red Sox.
Boston led 3-2 when Victor
Martinez drew a leadoff walk
off Bailey (3-1), and Peralta
followed with a line drive over
the fence in left eld for his
seventh homer of the year.
David Ortiz homered and
drove in a tiebreaking run with
an eighth-inning single to put
Boston up, but Drew Smyly
(3-0) replaced Phil Coke for
Detroit and prevented any
further scoring by the Red
Sox. He struck out four in two
innings of relief.
Rangers 4, Athletics 3
ARLINGTON, Texas Ian
Kinsler put Texas ahead for the
rst time with a two-run single
in the seventh and the Rangers
held on for a series-clinching
victory over AL West-leading
Oakland.
Kinsler came to the plate
right after Leonys Martins
hustling ineld single, get-
ting to rst base ahead of
Sean Doolittle (3-2) when the
pitcher was taking the toss
from rst baseman Brandon
Moss. That loaded the bases
with two outs, and Kinsler hit
a full-count pitch through the
middle of the ineld.
The game ended when Josh
Donaldson was thrown out at
the plate trying to score from
rst on Seth Smiths single to
center.
Twins 8, White Sox 4
MINNEAPOLIS Brian
Doziers two-run homer was
one of a career-high four long
balls hit off Chicago starter
John Danks, and Minnesota
nished their rst three-game
sweep of the season and their
rst over White Sox in three
years.
Interleague
Astros 7, Brewers 4
HOUSTON Carlos Pena
hit a three-run homer in the
10th inning to send Houston
past Milwaukee.
It was a sloppy game that
featured six unearned runs and
four errors.

Nationals 5, Rockies 1
WASHINGTON Jordan
Zimmermann pitched eight
innings to win his 10th game,
Adam LaRoche had three hits
including a two-run triple
and the Nationals spoiled Roy
Oswalts return to the majors
with a win over the Colorado
Rockies.
Ian Desmond homered for
the second straight game,
and Denard Span and Steve
Lombardozzi added a dou-
ble and a single apiece for
Washington.
Zimmermann (10-3) allowed
an unearned run on six hits.
He retired 16 straight in one
stretch, throwing 112 pitches
85 for strikes while fan-
ning nine and walking one.
Oswalt (0-1) went ve
innings in his Colorado debut,
allowing four runs on nine
hits. He struck out 11 and
didnt walk a batter.
Mets 4, Braves 3
ATLANTA David Wright
hit two solo homers, New
Yorks bullpen pitched ve-plus
scoreless innings to overcome
an injury to starting pitcher
Jonathon Niese in a victory
over Atlanta.
Niese left the game in the
fourth with left shoulder dis-
comfort and the Mets trailing
3-2, but the Mets bullpen shut
down Atlanta for the next 5
2-3 innings.
Closer Bobby Parnell earned
his 11th save in 14 chances
by facing the minimum in the
ninth.
LaTroy Hawkins (2-0)
earned the victory after allow-
ing two hits and striking out
two in two innings.
The Mets have won four of
six, thanks in part to a bullpen
thats 1-0 with a 1.55 ERA over
the last nine games.
Mike Minor (8-3) allowed
nine hits, four runs and two
walks in six-plus innings for
Atlanta.
Pirates 5, Reds 3
CINCINNATI Pedro
Alvarez hit a solo homer, bas-
es-loaded double and single to
drive in all of Pittsburghs runs
in a victory over Cincinnati
and a split of their NL Central
showdown.
Alvarez had an RBI single
and his 16th homer off Homer
Bailey. After Alfredo Simon
(5-3) loaded the bases in the
seventh, Alvarez doubled off
left-hander Tony Cingrani to
snap a 2-all tie.
The ve RBIs were a season
high for a Pirate and one shy of
Alvarezs career high.
Bryan Morris (4-2) contrib-
uted to the go-ahead rally with
his rst career single. He also
pitched two innings, allowing
one run.

RailRiders
The Times Leader staf
ROCHESTER, N.Y. A
season after leading Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre to a division title
while playing without a home
eld, manager Dave Miley was
named as the International
League manager for the
Triple-A All-Star Game on July
17 inReno, Nevada on Thursday
prior to the RailRiders game
against Rochester.
In Thursdays game, Miley
couldve used a little more luck
with his squad, which lost to
Rochester 5-2. The Red Wings
jumped out to a 5-0 lead against
RailRiders starter David Huff
(3-2), who allowed three of the
ve runs.
Up 1-0 entering the bottom
of the fth, Rochester slugger
Chris Colabello walloped a
two-run homer to put the Red
Wings ahead 3-0. They added
two more in the sixth against
reliever Chase Whitley.
The next inning, SWB broke
up the shutout as Alberto
Gonzlez doubled in Cody
Grice. In the next inning,
Randy Ruiz, who has been
on the team less than a week,
crushed his second home run
to trim the lead to 5-2.
The RailRiders return home
to PNC Field today for four
games in three days against
Hazletons Russ Canzler and
the Norfolk Tides. The teams
play a day/night doubleheader
Saturday as the series and
short homestand wraps up on
Sunday.
Tonights pitching matchup
pits a pair of hurlers who have
seen signicant time in the
Major Leagues with RailRiders
right-hander Ivan Nova (2-0,
2.04) against Tides righty Jair
Jurrjens (4-4, 3.82).
After that, Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre is on the road going to
Syracuse and Pawtucket until
July 4.
Mileys appearance as man-
ager for the International
League will be his third. He
last managed the squad in 2008
while at the helm for the SWB
Yankees. Prior to that was in
2002 while being at the helm of
Louisville. The three times as
manager matches Rick Sweets
record for most times manag-
ing the I.L. in the contest.

Amaro endorsed by Phillies
president Montgomery
PHILADELPHIA The barking on
David Montgomerys doorstep has started
again.
It was never louder than when Ed Wade
was the Phillies general manager. Starving
for the postseason, the fan base wanted
a change and loudly voiced that opinion
over a number of disappointing seasons.
Wade was finally fired by Montgomery and
replaced by Pat Gillick after the 2005 sea-
son.
Eight years later, with general manager
Ruben Amaro Jr. overseeing a team that is
struggling below .500, the voices of discon-
tent are growing once again.
Montgomery, the Phillies president and
the only man with an opinion on Amaro
that matters, defended his general manager
Wednesday.
The reality is that when things dont go
well, people look to find, well, whose fault
is it? Montgomery said. I believe in situ-
ations like this that when times are good
theres enough credit to go around. Its all of
us. Ruben is not making independent deci-
sions. Hes going with a pretty good group
of eyes who are looking out there at play-
ers and making determinations. God knows
were all trying to bat 1.000 on decision
making. The reality is I think we do better
than the .300 standard in baseball.
Amaros list of baseball assistants is long,
ranging from special assistants Gillick,
Dallas Green, Charley Kerfeld and Bart
Braun to three assistant general manag-
ers Benny Looper, Scott Proefrock and
Marti Wolever to director of player
development Joe Jordan and director of
professional scouting Mike Ondo. Wade is
also back as a special consultant, and scouts
Dave Hollins, Howie Freiling and Gordon
Lakey play a role as well.
The general manager typically makes the
final decision, and Amaros four most sig-
nificant moves of the offseason were the
trades for third baseman Michael Young
and centerfielder Ben Revere, plus the free-
agent signings of pitcher Mike Adams and
rightfielder Delmon Young. He also signed
free-agent reliever Chad Durbin, who has
since been released.
Wambach breaks Hamms mark for career goals
By TOM CANAVAN
AP Sports Writer
HARRISON, N.J. Abby
Wambach broke Mia Hamms
record for international career
goals by a soccer player, scor-
ing four times in the rst half
against South Korea to push her
total to 160.
Wambach tallied three times
in the rst 29 minutes to break
Hamms mark of 158 interna-
tional goals, and she added
another in injury time to give
her a nice round number.
The historic 159th came on
a line-drive header that ripped
into the twine in the back of the
net off a corner kick by Megan
Rapinoe.
The 33-year-old Wambach
turned and ran a couple of steps
in the direction of the U.S.
bench, then stopped as Rapinoe
jumped into her arms. The
Rochester, N.Y., native was then
mobbed by teammates on the
eld and those who streamed
off the bench as the crowd at
Red Bull Arena cheered wildly.
After the hugs, Wambach
turned to the stands and blew
a kiss toward her parents, Judy
and Peter.
Chants of Ab-bee, Ab-bee,
Ab-bee, cascaded through the
stadium as ofcials got the ball
and gave it to the U.S. bench.
Im just so proud of her,
Hamm said. Just watching
those four goals, thats what she
is all about. She ghts for the
ball, shes courageous and she
never gives up. Her strength
and perseverance is what
makes her so great and its what
defenders and opposing teams
fear.
From being her teammate
early in her career, I know all
she ever wanted to do was win,
and she continues to do that.
Im just glad I got to share 158
with her. It was short, but it
was fun.
Her rst goal Thursday came
on a shot in the box past South
Korean goalkeeper Kim Jung-mi
in the 10th minute. The second
came nine minutes later in the
friendly on a icking header.
Lauren Cheney set up the
rst two goals on crossing
passes on plays that Wambach
eluded Korean defender Shim
Seo-yeon.
Wambachs fourth goal was an
easy tap-in after Alex Morgan
made a run down the right side
and centered the ball to the on-
rushing Wambach, the 2012
FIFA Womens World Player of
the Year.
She was replaced in the 58th
minute by Christen Press.

OAKLAND, Calif. Former college
basketball standout Ed OBannon and
his lawyers sought on Thursday to dra-
matically expand his lawsuit challeng-
ing the NCAAs ban on compensating
athletes in a move that could expose the
organization and its member schools to
billions of dollars in damages.
OBannon and his lawyers asked a fed-
eral court judge to turn their antitrust
lawsuit into a class action, representing
thousands of former and current college
athletes. The lawsuit demands that the
NCAA nd a way to cut players in on
the billions of dollars earned by college
sports from live broadcasts, memorabil-
ia sales, video games and in other areas.
U.S. District Court Judge Claudia
Wilken didnt rule on either the merits
of OBannons case or his demands to
turn the case into a class action. It could
take weeks, even months, before Wilken
rules.
Instead, she ordered OBannons law-
yers to revise the lawsuit to x some
legal technicalities, including explicat-
ing adding current players to the law-
suit. Lawyer Michael Hausfeld said he
will le a new lawsuit that includes cur-
rent players, but will seek to keep their
names condential.
They are afraid of retaliation,
Hausfeld told the court.
NCAA lawyer Greg Curtner is against
certifying the lawsuit as a class action,
arguing that the claims of thousands of
collegiate athletes are too different to
be treated the same. For instance, cer-
tain athletes bring in more revenue than
others and have different legal claims at
stake.
The NCAA argues that many of
the athletes receive scholarships in
exchange for playing sports and to pay
student athletes would ruin amateur
athletics. To pay athletes more than
that would ruin collegiate sports, the
NCAA argues.
The debate over compensating col-
lege players is almost as old as the
NCAA, founded in 1906. Amateurs
have been expected to compete for free
and the love of sport or at least the
cost of a scholarship and the pursuit of
an education.
The NCAA is steadfast in its position
that student-athletes are prohibited
from receiving payment for participat-
ing in sports. It also says it has done
nothing wrong in marketing itself for
the benet of its member schools and
will continue to vigorously contest the
lawsuits
But the NCAAs revenues have sky-
rocketed in recent years it recently
signed a $10.8 billion, 14-year televi-
sion deal for basketball and so have
the demands of athletes to share in the
money.
Imdoing this for change, OBannon
said outside court.

champion UCLA Bruins traveled from
his Las Vegas home to attend the hear-
ing Thursday.

ASCOT, England A beaming
Queen Elizabeth II received the
Gold Cup trophy on Thursday after
becoming the rst reigning British
monarch in history with a winning
horse in Royal Ascots biggest race.
The 87-year-old queen clapped
and smiled broadly in the stands as
Estimate, the 7-2 favorite, crossed
the line to become the rst lly
to win the Gold Cup since Indian
Queen in 1991.
The queen, who has been on the
throne for 61 years, has attend-
ed Ascot every year since 1945.
Thursdays win was her 22nd over-
all at Ascot, but the rst in the sig-
nature Gold Cup.
Its a great honor to win for Her
Majesty the Queen, Estimates
trainer, Michael Stoute, said. We
know how much she loves this
game.
Estimate won at Ascot last year
in the Queens Vase, one of the races
in which the queen presents the
trophy. She received the prize then
from her husband, Prince Phillip.
With Phillip recovering from
abdominal surgery, the queen,
sporting a lilac outt, received the
Gold Cup trophy Thursday from
one of her sons, Prince Andrew.
British Prime Minister David
Cameron congratulated the queen
on Twitter.
Huge congratulations to Her
Majesty for Estimates victory at
Royal #Ascot - rst time ever a
reigning monarchs horse has won
the Gold Cup, he wrote.
Jockey Ryan Moore rode
Estimate to a close victory over 5-1
shot Simenon in the race, which is
run over 2 miles and 4 furlongs.
Challenger Top Trip, 7-1, nished
third.
Estimate held off a late chal-
lenge mounted by Simenons jock-
ey Johnny Murtagh and won by a
neck.
Its fantastic to win for the
queen at Royal Ascot, Moore said.
We had a good draw and the pace
wasnt mad at the beginning. She
(Estimate) relaxed so well over the
nal furlongs.
Despite the bookies making
Estimate the favorite, Stoute had
raised doubts about the llys form
before the race.
I really felt it was a tough task.
I wasnt condent at all taking on
the boys, but its a great thrill, he
said. Shes a pain in the backside
at times though.
Riposte, trained by Jane Cecil,
the widow of celebrated trainer
Henry Cecil, who died earlier
this month, claimed victory in the
Ribblesdale Stakes ahead of Just
Pretending and Elik.
The win was greeted by loud
cheers. Henry Cecil trained a record
of 75 winners at Ascot.
I dont really have the words to
say what I am feeling right now. I
think people will probably have a
good idea, Jane Cecil said. Henry
was just adored by so many people.
People who had never met him just
loved him.

Britains Queen Elizabeth II with her racing manager John Warren react after her horse, Estimate, won the Gold Cup on day three of the Royal Ascot meeting at Ascot Racecourse,
England, Thursday.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. A Texas woman was awarded cus-
tody Thursday of her 9-month-old orphaned cousin whose
mother was killed by former Kansas City Chiefs linebacker
Jovan Belcher late last year before he turned the gun on him-
self.
Jackson County Probate Commissioner Daniel Wheeler
issued an order Thursday granting custody of Zoey Perkins
to Sophie Perkins of Pugerville, Texas, saying she was more
suited than Belchers mother to be the babys guardian.
Zoey was orphaned on the morning of Dec. 1 when her
father, Belcher, fatally shot her mother, Kasandra Perkins,
in the couples Kansas City home. Belcher then drove to
Arrowhead Stadium and killed himself in front of coaches and
the teams general manager as they pleaded with him to put
the gun down.
During a three-day hearing last week, Sophie Perkins and
Belchers mother, Cheryl Shepherd of West Babylon, N.Y.,
each argued that she would be the best guardian for the girl.
Perkins lawyers attacked Shepherds smoking habit and the
number of police calls to her home over the years, while
Shepherds attorneys criticized Perkins for putting the girl in
day care 45 hours a week while she worked.
Perkins, who was Kasandra Perkins rst cousin, is the sis-
ter of Whitney Golden Charles, whose husband is Chiefs All-
Pro running back Jamaal Charles.

Charley Hoffman
missed the course record
by a stroke, but shot 61
Thursday to take the lead
after the rst round of the
Travelers Championship,
a year after he blew a two-
stroke advantage on the
tournaments nal two
holes.
In his latest round,
Hoffman hit a 126-yard
approach shot within
3-feet of the pin to help
him birdie 18 and sepa-
rate himself by a stroke
from Hunter Mahan, who
posted an early 62. Bubba
Watson was two strokes
back.
Hoffman said he
thought he might have a
chance to go even lower,
and was irting with 59
after making eagle on
10 and 12, and going to
8-under par with a birdie
on 16. His 28 on the back
nine was the lowest 9-hole
score on Tour this year
I knew I had some
chances coming in, he
said. But when its said
and done, as I displayed
last year, 16, 17 and 18
arent an easy test. So I
was just trying to make
some pars coming in.
Hoffman, Mahan and
Watson all have interesting
histories in Connecticut.
Hoffman nished tied
with Watson for second
last year after it seemed
he had the tournament
sewed up. He made dou-
ble bogey on 17, then
bogeyed the 18th after
failing to get up and down
from a greenside bunker,
handing Marc Leishman
the title.
Its nice to come back
after that finish last year,
and come back and shoot
61 and put myself back in
the lead, Hoffman said.
Mahan is the 2007
champion and has two
second-place finishes in
his 11 previous starts at
the TPC River Highlands.
I think this is the most
comfortable course on
tour for me, he said.
Coming off a fourth-
place finish after being
in the final pair at the
U.S. Open, Mahan kept it
rolling here, opening the
day by making the first
of eight birdies during a
bogey-free round. He was
also at 8-under with three
holes to play before shoot-
ing par on the final three
holes.
This is a golf course
where you can be aggres-
sive off the tee if you
want to be, but you can
also play it safe, he said.
I choose to be mostly
aggressive, and it gives
me some short irons. Im
happy to take on pins
with my short irons. So
its a combo of things, but
all I know is when I step
on that tee, I feel like I can
hit any shot out here.
Watson finds himself
in contention again after
winning in 2010 and
tying Hoffman as the run-
Hofman shoots 61 for
early lead at Travelers
The Associated Press ner up a year ago. He said
there is a reason so many
familiar names are at the
top of the leaderboard.
These are guys that
love this course, that love
this tournament, they
love Travelers and how
theyve treated us here,
he said. And so, youre
always going to see pretty
much some of the same
guys up there because
they enjoy this area and
this golf course.
A group of six golfers
was four strokes back.
The biggest ovation of
the day came when Justin
Rose was introduced on
the first tee as the U.S.
Open champion. Rose
went on to shoot a 67,
leaving him in good shape
heading into Friday.
Obviously, Im play-
ing well, he said. I just
knew I had to get through
today without too much
damage. If you manage
to keep it in the mid-60s
for most of the week, you
should do pretty well.
Rose also announced
that he is changing man-
agement companies, leav-
ing British-based 4Sports
& Entertainment for
Excel Sports, the same
company that represents
Tiger Woods.
I just felt with me play-
ing so much here in the
states and where I felt my
game was going, I just felt
it was a decision I wanted
to make, he said.
The round marked
the pro debut of Chris
Williams, the top-ranked
amateur in the world the
past season. He shot a
1-over 7, with two bogies
and a single birdie.
The first tee, I was a
little nervous, he said.
But then it was the same
old, same old. I didnt play
very well, so that was pret-
ty frustrating, but I got it
out of the way.
Charley Hoffman hits his
drive on the 18th hole dur-
ing the first round of the
Travelers Championship golf
tournament in Cromwell,
Conn., Thursday. Hoffman
birdied the hole and scored
a 9-under par 61 for the
round.

Serena Williams has reached out to the family of the
victim in the Steubenville, Ohio, rape case after the
tennis star was quoted in a Rolling Stone article say-
ing she shouldnt have put herself in that position.
The tennis star, in England preparing for
Wimbledon, spoke to the victim, her mother and a
family lawyer for about 30 minutes Wednesday, the
lawyer said.
Serena was very nice, very sincere and it was a very
well-received conversation among two women and a
young lady, attorney Bob Fitzsimmons said Thursday.
Williams apologized in a statement released through
her agent Wednesday.
I am currently reaching out to the girls fam-
ily to let her know that I am deeply sorry for what
was written in the Rolling Stone article, the state-
ment said. What was written what I supposedly
said is insensitive and hurtful, and I by no means
would say or insinuate that she was at all to blame.
