those measures were statistically
improbable, a school was

Next time you buy a bottle of
liquor at one of Pennsylvanias
state-owned wine and spirits
shops, take a look at the receipt,
which notes the price of the bot-
tle and the stan-
dard 6 percent
state sales tax.
But the total
also incorpo-
rates other fac-
tors, which
drive up the
price on a typi-
cal bottle by
more than 50
percent.
In addition to
a 30-percent
markup that the
state Liquor
Control Board
tacks onto each
bottle, theres a
per bottle handling charge that
could be up to $2. The state also
assesses an 18-percent levy,
thanks to a 75-year-old tax creat-
edin1936 tohelppay for the clea-
nup, recovery and assistance to
victims of that years Johnstown
Flood.
When it began, the 10 percent
Johnstown Flood Tax was in-
tended to be temporary.
According to johnstownflood-
tax.com, though the $40 million
recovery was assisted by the fed-
eral government and completed
within six years, the tax was nev-
er repealed.
In fact, it has been increased
twice since. In1963, it was raised
to 15 percent and five years later,
it was hiked to 18 percent, where
it remains today.
The Johnstown Flood Tax
was instituted for a particular
purpose, whichis nolonger valid.
For that reason, I am opposed to
this tax, said state Rep. Karen
Boback, R-Harveys Lake.
It is the cautionary tale of why
we should always beware of new
taxes because they never seemto
go away. I believe we needto look
at how other states are success-

ingthe product competitive, she
said.

POLICE BLOTTER
W-B robbery brings search
S. JOHN WILKIN/THE TIMES LEADER
Wilkes-Barre police searched Building 165 at the Interfaith Apartments along North
Sherman Street around 6 p.m. Thursday for three men who reportedly robbed a Dom-
inos Pizza delivery driver at gunpoint. The unidentified delivery man met one of the
men at the scene and was then cornered by two other men possibly armed with a hand-
gun and rifle, police said. A small amount of money was taken and the men fled, police
said. It was the second reported armed robbery of a delivery person in two days in the
area. Police said two men robbed a delivery person for the China King restaurant on
Wilkes-Barre Township Boulevard of $700 at gunpoint Wednesday afternoon at Building
320 of the Sherman Hills Apartments.
It was a long, hot day of mu-
sic Thursday as the Vans
Warped Tour made its annual
stop at the Toyota Pavilion at
Montage Mountain.
More than 80 bands played
on eight stages scattered
throughout the grounds of the
Scranton amphitheater, with
the first groups hitting the
boards at 11:30 a.m. and the last
ones scheduled to go on at 8
p.m.
The word of
the day might
very well have
been eclectic
as bands spe-
cializing in
rock, punk,
ska, reggae,
alternative,
metalcore,
hip-hop and a
whole host of
other musical
styles were on
the bill.
Main-stage headliners includ-
ed The Devil Wears Prada, Au-
gust Burns Red, Asking Alexan-
dria, Paramore, Less Than Jake
and A Day to Remember.
As much of the days music
happens simultaneously, it is
impossible to take in all of the
sights and sounds offered by the
Warped Tour, but you can plan a
good strategy with the aid of
the stage schedules and a map
of the facility.
As you make your way past
the various merchandising
tents, the atmosphere feels a lot
like a carnival with the bands
themselves becoming the bark-
ers trying to get you to stop for
a few minutes and partake of
their particular brand of music.
My day got started with Re-
lient K, a five-piece pop punk
band from Canton, Ohio, whose
30-minute set was highlighted
by a cool version of Cyndi Laup-
ers Girls Just Want to Have
Fun from its new covers collec-
tion, K is for Karaoke.
Up next was a great five-song,
25-minute set from River City
Extension, an eight-piece en-
semble from Toms River, N.J.,
that mixes folk music with a
punk attitude, fronted by singer-
songwriter Joe Michelini.
Standouts included Something
Salty, Something Sweet with
the band sounding a lot like
Rusted Root and Mexico, with
mariachi band-style trumpets.
For the next hour or so, I
went from stage to stage taking
in samples of a few different col-
lectives and a few different
styles. First up was Foxy Sha-
zam, a glam-rock band from
Cincinnati, Ohio, followed by
Pepper, a three-piece reggae
band from Hawaii.
Then I stopped for a few min-
utes to catch a little bit of Shira,
a female singer from Brooklyn
playing her second of nine dates
on the tour. Backed by a DJ in-
stead of a band and dressed as
Wonder Woman fighting off her
two dancers acting like robots,
Shira sang a very Top 40 sound-
ing song that was probably
called Dont be Mad. Very in-
teresting, to say the least.
Thanks to the few moments I
spent with the band I Set My
Friends On Fire, I now know
what screamo music is. For
the uninitiated, it is a style of
hardcore with shrieking vocals
and hard hitting guitar licks not
unlike a lot of alternative metal,
according to allmusic.com.
Also caught a few minutes of
a hard rocking alternative band
from Detroit called D.R.U.G.S.
(stands for Destroy Rebuild
Until God Shows), which
seemed quite popular with the
large gathering at the Nintendo
3DS stage, a punk band from
England called The Exposed
and a reggae band from Los An-
geles called The Aggrolites.
The Vans Warped Tour,
which has been crossing the
country since 1995, continues
on through Aug. 14. Upcoming
stops include the Susquehanna
Bank Center in Camden, N.J.,
on July 21 and in Burgettstown,
Pa., on July 22. The next show
at the Toyota Pavilion is hip-hop
star Lil Wayne on July 19.

on 140 Wyoming Ave., Kingston.
Ten handguns were taken in the

LARKSVILLE
Victim must sell her home
A Larksville woman who had to put
up a for sale sign on her Sondra Drive
home due to a theft of money will sell
her belongings at an estate sale this
weekend.
Louise Mary Olenik, 79, told The
Times Leader that her money worries
began about a year ago when her niece
allegedly began taking a total of
$107,000 from the
recently widowed
woman.
Her niece, Marisa
Harlen, 29, of King-
ston, is scheduled to
appear in court on
Monday on one count
of receiving stolen
property. Prosecutors
say Harlen had access to the money
when she assumed Oleniks power of
attorney.
Olenik put her home up for sale in
January, and the estate sale will be
held this weekend. Olenik has previ-
ously said she must sell the furnishings
and her house to pay bills and worries
how she will pay to live in a nursing
home or pay for 24-hour nurse care.

WYOMING COUNTY
Disaster aid wins approval
Gov. Tom Corbett said the federal
government has approved his request
for disaster aid to help communities in
Bradford, Lycoming, Sullivan, Tioga
and Wyoming counties recover from a
devastating storm that moved through
the region from April 25-28.
The Public Assistance program will
provide approximately $19 million in
federal funds for county and municipal
governments to help recover the cost
of debris removal, emergency services
related to the disaster and repairing or
replacing damaged public facilities
such as roads, bridges, utilities, build-
ings, schools, recreational areas and
similar publicly owned property. In
addition, the money will also be direct-
ed to some private nonprofits engaged
in community service activities.
April was one of the wettest months
on record, and these five counties sus-
tained tremendous damages from
which they simply cannot recover on
their own, said Glenn Cannon, direc-
tor of the Pennsylvania Emergency
Management Agency. We appreciate
that the federal government recognized
our need and granted our request.

WILKES-BARRE Former Luzerne
County judge Mark Ciavarella is paint-
ing for a living these days.
On Thursday, Ciavarella was painting
aporchat 313McLeanSt. ownedbyBob
Kadluboski, owner of City Wide Tow-
ing.
Kadluboski is a frequent vocal critic
of Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton
and City Council, at times calling them
corrupt and saying they should be in-
vestigated.
Yes, he (Ciavarella) has been doing
odd jobs for me, Kadluboski said. Hes
not my employee. Hes an independent
contractor.
Kadluboski said Ciavarella has been
doing work for other peo-
ple, but he would not iden-
tify any. Ciavarella,
through Kadluboski, de-
clined to comment for this
story. Kadluboski said he
and Ciavarella were on
the road and the former judge would
not comment.
In February, a federal jury convicted
Ciavarella of illegally accepting money
relating to the construction of the PA
Child Care center, but rejected allega-
tions he extorted Robert Powell or ac-
cepted money relating to a second juve-
nile center.
The jury found Ciavarella guilty of
racketeering, racketeering conspiracy,
money laundering and money launder-
ing conspiracy relating to the $997,600
finders fee he received from Robert
Mericle, the builder of the center. It also
foundhimguilty of honest services mail
fraud for filing fraudulent statements of
financial interest with a state agency
and five tax counts for filing false tax re-
turns.
He was acquitted on multiple counts
of bribery, extortion and money laun-
dering relating to the more than
$700,000 that was paid to him and for-
mer judge Michael Conahan by Powell,
as well as honest services wire fraud re-

June 16 council meet-
ing, Janet Straub of Es-

address council about
an issue in her neigh-
borhood when she was
interrupted by loud
shouting at the rear of
council chambers.
Bob Kadluboski of
City Wide Towing had
addressed council pri-

called. On his way out
of the room, Kadlubos-

Kadluboski denies the
claim -- prompting
Leighton to say,
Goodnight, cupcake.
Infuriated, Kadluboski
started shouting.
The incident lasted
about a minute, when
Kadluboski was es-

chambers by a city po-

Visibly shaken,
Straub could hardly
speak when order was
restored.
That really scared me, she said after

Kane said she is waiting for citys at-

to silence Kadluboski.

hey wait, isnt that your dog?
Calendars that feature dogs might
not be hard to come by, but thanks
to Alison Besecker, 17, of Hanover
Township, locals now have the
chance to see their own canine
friends in one, all while helping a
good cause.
Besecker, daughter of Harry Be-
secker and Terrie Morgan Besecker,
a Times Leader reporter, is holding a
Paws for a Cause 2012 Calendar
Contest as part of her senior project
at Hanover Area High School.
The calendar will showcase sub-
mitted photos of local dogs and all
proceeds from the calendars, which
will sell for $15 apiece, go to the
Leader Dog program of Lions Club
International.
The program is important be-
cause it teaches dogs, like German
Shepherds and Golden Retrievers,
the commands needed to aid people
that are deaf and blind, Besecker
said. They teach them how to turn
on lights, help their owner cross the
street.
Leader Dogs was founded in 1939
and, in addition to the guide dog
program, offers other programs that
enhance a persons quality of life
such as orientation and mobility
training and GPS training. Leader
Dog is the only organization in the
Western Hemisphere to teach deaf-
blind students to work with a guide
dog.
What the organization provides
goes beyond the helpful actions the
dogs learn how to do.
Not only will the dogs physically
help people who might be im-
paired, Besecker said, theyre also
really great companions to have.

HARVEYS LAKE Borough resi-
dents can have their well water tested
at a reduced cost and have a question-
and-answer session with a water ex-
pert after the tests are completed.
The Harveys Lake Environmental
Advisory Council is offering test kits
and the water testing, which have a re-
tail cost of $200, for $85 as a public ser-
vice to Harveys Lake residents, said
council member Susan Vosik Pekala.
Test kits can be picked up at the bor-
ough building during regular business
hours through July 23 and must be
droppedoff at the boroughbuildingbe-
tween 10 a.m. and noon on that date.
The $85 must be paid when a kit is
picked up.
The tests are beingconductedby the
Wilkes University Water Quality Lab-
oratory in conjunction with the adviso-
ry council. Confidential test results
will be mailed to residents within two
weeks of the test.
Residents as well as the general pub-
lic will havetheopportunitytoattenda

low the presentation.
VosikPekala saidthe council is offer-
ing the tests as a public service to
community residents so theyre aware
of whats in the drinking water. The
council has been offering the service
for the past several years, she said.
She noted that test results do not
meet requirements of a legal baseline
water well test. However, the tests are
a valuable, cost-effective opportunity
for homeowners to monitor the safety
of their drinking water, she said.

U.S., Pakistani military talk
G
en. David Petraeus, the outgoing
U.S. commander in Afghanistan,
and his soon-to-be successor met with
top military leaders in Pakistan on
Thursday as the two countries strug-
gled to resolve tensions over the Amer-
ican raid that killed Osama bin Laden.
Petraeus and Marine Lt. Gen. John
Allens visit was part of a flurry over
meetings between diplomats and mil-
itary leaders of the two countries since
the May 2 strike against the al-Qaida
chief in the northwest Pakistani garri-
son town of Abbottabad.
Pakistani civilian and military lead-
ers are angry over the raid because the
Americans did not warn them about it,
although they insist they had no idea
the terror leader was on their soil. In
response, they have kicked out many
U.S. military trainers and asked the
Americans to reduce their footprint in
the country.
GREENSBORO, N.C.
Edwards trial date set
The trial of former presidential can-
didate John Edwards can begin in
October, a federal judge said Thursday,
despite arguments from the ex-sen-
ators lawyers that they need more
time.
Edwards is accused of accepting
illegal campaign contributions to hide
an affair during his unsuccessful 2008
White House bid. Prosecutors also say
he filed false campaign reports to cover
up the payments. Edwards has pleaded
not guilty to six felony charges.
His lawyers had argued for a January
trial, but District Court Judge Carlton
Tilley said repeatedly that postponing
the trial was not an option.
You folks have not brought a whole
lot more to the table than you did last
month, when lawyers successfully
sought a delay in scheduling the trial,
the judge said.
WASHINGTON
Cause of rupture unknown
It will likely be months before in-
vestigators know what caused an Ex-
xonMobil oil pipeline to rupture near
Billings, Mont., spilling about 1,000
barrels of crude oil into the Yellow-
stone River, a federal safety official said
Thursday.
Thus far, investigators are unaware
of any safety violations by ExxonMobil
related to the spill, Cynthia Quarter-
man, administrator of the Pipeline and
Hazardous Materials Safety Adminis-
tration told a congressional hearing.
The spill has fouled shoreline and
contaminated backwaters along dozens
of miles of the scenic river.
The oil giant is working on a plan to
lay a new section of pipe 30 feet below
the river to replace the damaged pipe
responsible for the spill, ExxonMobil
Pipeline Company President Gary
Pruessing said. The flow of oil through
the pipeline has been shut off since the
July 1 accident.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. Military
pallbearers on Thursday carried Betty
Fords rose-covered casket into the
churchwhere she andher husbandwere
married more than 60 years ago for a fi-
nal memorial service to remember the
former first lady.
Steven Ford described for mourners
the familys bond, referring to themas a
naval fleet.
Dad was the aircraft carrier. I know
that, he said. If Mom was in our fleet,
which she was, she was the hospital
ship. She was the one there with the
love and the comfort.
She just knew how to love, he add-
ed. We felt her love long before her
spotlight came ... And then the world
got to see her love.
Lynne Cheney, wife of former Vice
President Dick Cheney, said the mere
mention of Fords name brings good
and hopeful things to mind.
She spoke of livinga page of history,
Cheney said. And Betty Ford filled that
page, and she filled it with ... class and
courage.
GeraldFords legacy is a time of heal-
ing, she added. Betty Fords is a place
of healing. They walked together so
long, and they lived in a faith that prom-
ised reunion.
The former first lady, whodiedFriday
at 93, was to be buried later next to her
husband at the museumon what would
have been his 98th birthday.
At Grace Episcopal Church, former
first lady Barbara Bush, former Presi-
dent Bill Clinton and Dick Cheney, who
was President Fords chief of staff, sat in
a pew a row ahead of Michigan Gov.
Rick Snyder and his wife.
Hundreds of mourners stood outside
the church, which also hosted a memo-
rial for Gerald Ford following his death
in 2006.

The final meeting for the 30-

The meeting will be public.
The recommendations being
voted on will not be publicly dis-
closed, although it is possible
that the recommendations will
be debated at Fridays meeting
and that amendments will be of-
fered to some, said a spokesman
for Lt. Gov. Jim Cawley, who
chairs the commission.
The panel is under no legal
obligation to meet publicly, al-
though it does, and has no obli-
gation to disclose the proposed
recommendations before they
are voted on, said the spokes-
man, Chad Saylor. The recom-
mendations are to be made pub-

President Hamid Karzai was not at the

Kabul after his brothers funeral on
Wednesday.
President Karzai said the bombing in-
side a mosque was an attack on religious
faith.
The attacker appeared to have target-

provincial clerical council, who was
among the dead, according to Kandahar

There was a prayer going on and after

The attack in Kandahar city heightens
fears that security in the already volatile
south will unravel with the death of
Ahmed Wali Karzai, who was considered
the regions most powerful man.
The Sarra Jamai mosque had been fil-

had been taken to a secure location.
No one immediately claimed respon-

child and wounded 15 people, the Interi-

Officials believe the bomber got the
explosives past security by hiding them
in his turban.
The governor, who was attending the
memorial, said he saw the mans turban
explode. Provincial intelligence chief
Gen. Mohammad Naeem Momin said
authorities drew the came conclusion af-

BAGRAM AIR FIELD, Afghanistan
The Army changed the way it deals
with traumatic brain injury in Afghan-
istan and Iraq because U.S. soldiers of-
ten are targeted by roadside or suicide
bombs.
Not treating the sometimes hard-to-
spot injury can lead to physical and
emotional problems that linger long af-
ter the soldier returns home. But sol-
diers who are sent home for treatment
generally dont come back.
Now, after diagnosis in the field, sol-
diers are sent to a rehab clinic
Medical crews use leisure activities
and military fitness tests to determine
whether a soldier is fit to return to du-
ty.
The clinics are also stocked with card
games and Wii video games, which
help occupational therapists look for
memory loss or balance issues.
Soldier patients meet daily with doc-
tors and have occupational therapists
who monitor symptoms like concentra-
tion, balance, headaches and dizziness.
One of the final assessments is a mil-
itary performance test. The soldiers
don their body armor and perform nor-
mal activities for active duty. If a sol-
dier is able to complete them without
problems or recurring symptoms, the
occupational therapist can recommend
a return to the unit.
Clinics that opened last year in east-
ern Afghanistan returned about 1,000
soldiers to their units, said Maj. Kevin
Ridderhoff.

WILKES-BARRE City
Councilman Bill Barrett said
rules of decorum should be
followed at all meetings be-
cause, Nobody likes to see a
meeting end with a
slam of the gavel.
But in recent
months, nearly ev-
ery council meeting
has ended with
Council Chairwo-
man Kathy Kane
banging the gavel to
abruptly end a meet-
ing. The gavel-slam-
ming has been done
to silence Bob Ka-
dluboski, who usual-
ly is the last person
to address council and who
has engaged in loud ex-
changes that often includes
name-calling on both sides
and insults.
Its getting to the point
where were afraid somebody
is going to fly off the deep end
and soon nobody will want to
attend council meetings,
said Councilman Tony Tho-
mas, Jr. After that outburst
last month, that lady (Janet
Straub) started crying and
could hardly talk.That be-
havior is not right and thats
no way to act at a council
meeting, Thomas said.
Kane wants council to con-
sider adopting an ordinance
that will attach sanctions,
such as suspensions or ban-
ishment from council meet-
ings for people who cause dis-
ruptions at meetings.
Council Vice Chairman
Mike Merritt said there is an
ordinance already on the city
books, but it may need
strengthening.
I havent seen Mrs.
Kanes proposal,
Merritt said. But I am
aware of an existing
ordinance that would
impose sanctions on
disruptive persons or
people who use coun-
cil meetings to pro-
mote themselves.
Councilman Rick
Cronauer, who will
leave council at the
end of the year after earning
both the Democratic and Re-
publican nominations for dis-
trict judge, said council needs
to address the issue.
Its obvious that we need
more control at council meet-
ings, Cronauer said. I dont
know what the ordinance will
say, but Im sure its not di-
rected at any one individual.
The ordinance will just bring
to the forefront the need for
stronger rules on the way our
meetings are conducted.

The state Department of Environ-

The funding will support 50

Josh Longmore, executive di-
rector of the Luzerne Conserva-

specialist.
She will visit farmers with the

These are not regulatory in-

WILKES-BARRE After nearly a
year of wrangling and three years
after the work was first approved
Wilkes-Barre Area School Board took
final steps to repair what it contends is
a flawed guide rail project along a walk-
way outside Kistler Elementary school.
The board voted at
Wednesdays regular
meeting to award a
contract worth
$63,300 to repair what
it believes was faulty
concrete work by the
original contractor,
Bognet Inc. Bognet
was awarded the contract in January
2008 at a cost of $110,400, though work
was delayed until that summer to avoid
disruption of classes.
But the concrete started flaking
shortly after the job was done. The dis-
trict repeatedly tried to get Bognet to
repair it at no cost, but the company
declined. In September of last year, the
board started talking about hiring an-
other company to do the repairs and
filing suit against Bognet to recoup the
cost.
In the meantime, the guide rail itself
was damaged by two separate car colli-
sions, Assistant Solicitor Ray Wendo-
lowski said Wednesday. The board ap-
proved additional repair work totaling
$23,300 for that damage, though Wen-
dolowski said insurance will cover that
cost.
The board also voted to eliminate
the position of Public/Community Re-
lations, currently held by Debbie Hig-
gins, as part of an ongoing effort to
curb costs. Superintendent Jeff Namey
said the move would save about
$40,000, and that the responsibilities
would be taken up by elementary
school principals and activities direc-
tors in the high schools.
And the board hired Jennifer Thie-
mann as a substitute school psycholo-
gist.
Namey told the board that the move
to bring summer school for secondary
students in-house has worked well.
This is the first year the district is try-
ing to handle the classes itself. Previ-
ously the service was provided by Lu-
zerne County Community College.
The district had 239 students sign up
for classes, which they must pay to
take. The classes are credit recovery
work, meaning the students are making
up for failed course work during the
school year.
Namey said students pay $115 per
course, and that the program has been
so successful so far the district may
make a small profit.

PLYMOUTH The arch
bridge on Coal Street reopened
Thursday, giving vehicular ac-
cess to several families that
were forced to take a 14-mile
roundtrip route every day to get
to work.
Joe Yudichak, Plymouth
Township supervisor and road
master, said
workers from
the township
and Plymouth
borough com-
pleted work on
Coal Street
and the bridge
to provide ac-
cess from Coal
Street to Lee
Street. Travel-
ers can again
get to Route 11
in a matter of
minutes.
After the
flooding, a lot
of people were
forced to travel
up Curry Hill
to Jesses Road
to Mountain
Road to get to
Route 11, Yudichak said.
Thats about a seven-mile trip
one way. We got the road fixed
and paved and the bridge re-
paired and reinforced so vehi-
cles could use it.
Yudichak said all the costs
arent tallied yet, but the repairs
could reach about $100,000. He
said workers from Bear Creek
Township also helped get the
road repaired. The work took
about eight days to complete,
Yudichak said.
Plymouth Borough Manager
Joe Mazur said the finished
road will allow people on Coal
Street above Mill Street to have
an easier and quicker way to
Route 11. The bridge at the in-
tersection of Mill and Coal
streets has been condemned
and Mazur said it will take a
long time to get that repaired.
Gale Conrad, chairwoman of
the township board of supervi-
sors, said the long detour neces-
sitated by the damage to Coal
Street made it difficult for deliv-
eries and emergency services.
She said getting the road fixed
and bridge opened was critical
for a lot of residents.
Yudichak said township work-
ers will now start repairing
Mountain Road, which received
considerable damage from the
water running down the moun-
tain.
Yudichaks son, state Sen.
John Yudichak, D-Plymouth
Township, said he was pleased
traffic can now access Lee
Street.
The road opening was ac-
complished only after the tire-
less efforts by the employees
and officials from Plymouth
Township and Plymouth bor-
ough, Yudichak said.
As far as any funding being
allocated to help the flood-af-
fected towns and residents, Yud-
ichak said he is awaiting dam-
age assessments.
A proper account of any po-
tential funding assistance for
the residents of Plymouth and
Plymouth Township cannot be
given until FEMA and PEMA
produce a final damage assess-
ment report, Yudichak said.
Unfortunately, it is clear from
early discussions that the reality
of harsh state budget cuts,
which eliminated more than $4
million in local flood control
and stream improvement fund-
ing, will be felt by the good peo-
ple of Plymouth and Plymouth
Township who need our help.

WILKES-BARRE AKingston
woman suspected of being the
driver of a vehicle that struck and
killed a man last month was re-
leased from the Luzerne County
Correctional Facility Wednesday.
KarenMcCann, 33, alsoknown
as Karen McGill, was released af-
ter a hearing on a probation vio-
lation before Senior Judge Pa-
trick Toole.
Adult probation officers de-
tainedMcCannonJuly1after she
was citedbyKingstonpolicewith
driving witha suspendedlicense.
According to citations,
McCann was stopped for speed-
ing in the area of Pierce Street
and First Avenue at about 2:21
a.m. on June 30. Her license had
been suspended for one year due
to a drunken driving conviction
for which she was sentenced in
February.
Less than 10 hours after being
cited for driving with a suspend-
edlicense andspeeding, McCann
is suspected of driving the same
vehicle, a Chevrolet Trailblazer,
which struck Aloysius McLaugh-
lin, 63, a landscaper working in
front of 173 Third Ave. at about
11:50 a.m. on June 30.
McLaughlin died at Geisinger
Wyoming Valley Medical Center
in Plains Township, police said.
Police stopped the vehicle sev-
eral blocks away on Maple Ave-
nue, where the female driver,
identified by sources and court
records as McCann, was arrested
on suspicion of driving under a
controlled substance.
McCann was transported to
Wilkes-Barre General Hospital
for a blood test. Police are await-
ing results of the blood test to de-
termine if charges will be filed.
At Wednesdays hearing, Toole
renewed a one-year license sus-
pension for McCann. She was or-
dered to report to the adult pro-
bation department after she was
released from jail.

WILKES-BARRE Drug charges against
a NewYork man were dismissed Wednes-
day at the request of his attorney.
Charges including possession of a con-
trolled substance and possession with in-
tent to deliver cocaine were dismissed
against Jacquil Atkinson, 26, of NewYork,
N.Y.
Atkinson was charged in January 2005
with a co-defendant after Kingston police
seized several thousands of dollars worth of
cocaine after a car was stopped for not
using a turn signal and other traffic offens-
es.
Atkinson was scheduled to stand trial on
the charges beginning next week. His law-
yer, David Lampman, learned fromthe
District Attorneys Office that police in the
case had destroyed evidence, including the
drugs and documentation, after a co-de-
fendant pleaded guilty.
That, and other circumstances, prompted
Lampman to file a motion to dismiss the
charges, which was granted Wednesday by
Luzerne County Judge Lewis Wetzel
WILKES-BARRE A West Wyoming
man was found guilty Wednesday of two
related charges in a case in which police say
he sexually assaulted a young boy.
Richard Lysak, 43, of West 6th Street,
was found guilty of corruption of minors
and endangering the welfare of children
after a three-day trial before a Luzerne
County jury.
The trial was held before Luzerne County
Senior Judge Kenneth Brown. Assistant
District Attorney Alexis Falvello prose-
cuted the case; Lysak was represented by
attorney Mark Singer.
Lysak was found not guilty of involuntary
deviate sexual intercourse and a similar
charge was dismissed by prosecutors prior
to the trial.
WILKES-BARRE A Glen Lyon, New-
port Township, woman pleaded guilty
Wednesday to charges relating to an in-
cident in which police say they found a
2-year-old boy in a car parked behind a
residence in Wilkes-Barre.
Sabrina Tomcho, 21, of Rock Street, and
also with a listed address of Luzerne Street,
Hanover Township, entered the plea before
Luzerne County Judge Tina Polachek Gar-
tley to charges of endangering the welfare
of children and a summary charge of driv-
ing with a suspended license.
Polachek Gartley said Tomcho will be
sentenced on Sept. 29.
On Jan. 21police said they sawthe boy in
the car while conducting an unrelated traf-
fic stop and found Tomcho inside a Monroe
Street, Wilkes-Barre, home.
Police said the child was outside in the
car for at least 26 minutes while the tem-
perature was 23 degrees.
WILKES-BARRE A city man charged
with severely beating a Plymouth man in
November in the victims home will stand
trial on related charges in September.
Eric Romont Hogan, 48, of Hill Street,
was originally scheduled to stand trial this
week for the beating that left Donald Char-
les Skiff with severe head injuries. His trial
was continued to September at the request
of attorneys because all of the evidence has
not yet been compiled.
Hogan faces charges of criminal trespass-
ing, burglary, aggravated assault, simple
assault and reckless endangerment. Hogan
is represented by attorney Thomas Cometa.
Assistant District Attorney Dick Hughes is
prosecuting the case.
WILKES-BARRE Attorneys for a man
convicted of first-degree murder for a sec-
ond time have asked a Luzerne County
judge to grant an acquittal for their client.
Attorneys Brian Corcoran, Shelley Centi-
ni and WilliamWatt filed court papers
Monday asking that their client, James
Strong, be acquitted of first-degree murder
because prosecutors engaged in prosecu-
torial misconduct throughout Strongs
May trial.
Strong, after being found guilty of first-
degree murder for a second time, was sen-
tenced by Luzerne County Judge Thomas
Burke on June 29 to life in prison without
parole followed by 16 to 40 years in prison
on other related charges.
Strong, 59, was found guilty by jury of the
1983 murder charge, as well as kidnapping
and robbery, on May 27 after a lengthy trial.
A Luzerne County jury was then to decide
whether Strong would be sentenced to life
in prison or the death penalty for the killing
in Dorrance Township but could not make a
determination. State lawrequired Burke to
sentence Strong to life in prison.
Strongs attorneys say prosecutors made
statements not permitted by a judges rul-
ing throughout the trial, and that they
presented evidence that couldnt be backed
up.
The attorneys alleged the misconduct
was not a legal error, but intentional.
The commonwealths conduct caused
prejudice to the defendant which could not
be cured by means short of a mistrial, the
attorneys wrote.

In Loving Memory Of
Raymond Thomas
Cahoon, Jr.
7/27/74 ~ 7/15/10
With tearful eyes we watched you suffer
And saw you fade away;
God saw you were getting tired,
And a cure was not to be,
So He put his arms around you and
Whispered, come to me.
You didnt deserve what you went through
and so He gave you rest.
Your memory is a keepsake,
With which well never part,
God has you in His keeping,
We have you in our hearts.

LOS ANGELES Mad
Men, the sharply observed dra-
ma of a changing 1960s America,
captured 19 Emmy nominations
Thursday to lead the series pack,
with the melodramatic miniser-
ies Mildred Pierce starring
Kate Winslet grabbing a top 21
bids.
Mad Men has a chance to re-
peat for a fourth consecutive year
as best drama. Modern Family,
last years top comedy series, was
the most-nominated sitcom with
17 bids.
The awards will be presented
Sunday, Sept. 18.
Other leading nominees in-
clude the Prohibition-era drama
Boardwalk Empire with 18
nominations, Saturday Night
Live with16 and13 bids each for
the sex-and-swords fantasy
Game of Thrones and the sit-
com 30 Rock.
OK, keep it together, a sur-
prised nominations co-announ-
cer Melissa McCarthy said when
she realized she was a nominee
for her sitcom Mike & Molly.
The controversial miniseries
The Kennedys, which was
dropped by the History channel
and given a second chance by the
lesser-known ReelzChannel, re-
ceived10 nominations, including
best miniseries and acting bids
for Greg Kinnear as President
JohnF. Kennedy, Barry Pepper as
Robert KennedyandTomWilkin-
son as family patriarch Joe Ken-
nedy.
Familiar faces have a chance to
claim or reclaim Emmys,
including last years lead comedy
actress winner Edie Falco of
Nurse Jackie and Jim Parsons,
best actor for a comedy for The
Big Bang Theory. Both were
nominated this year.
Jon Hamm received his fourth
lead acting bid for Mad Men,
andthis time the competitor who
deniedhimthe awardthree times
before isnt inthe category. Bryan
CranstonandBreakingBad we-
rent eligible for this years
awards because the series took a
break between seasons.
Hamms new competition in-
cludes Steve Buscemi, who re-
ceivedaGoldenGlobefor his per-
formance as an Atlantic City po-
litical boss in Boardwalk Em-
pire.
Steve Carell earneda best com-
edy actor nomination for his final
season of The Office, his last
chance to winanEmmy statuette
for his role as TVs most clueless
boss.
Matt LeBlanc, best known for
his role as Joey in Friends, re-
ceived a lead comedy actor bid
for playing a screen version of
himself in the satiric show busi-
ness series Episodes.
And proving that the Betty
White phenomenonstill has legs:
The 89-year-oldwonder nabbeda
best supporting actress bid for
the sitcom Hot in Clevand. If
she wins, it would be her eighth
Emmy.
I am so thrilled. How lucky
can an old broad be? she said by
phone a few minutes after her
agent woke her with the news. I
wasnt even thinking about the
nominations because I didnt
even think there was a chance.
There were fresh faces as well,
including best drama actress
nominee Mireille Enos of The
Killing and best drama actor
Timothy Olyphant of Justified.
Kyra Sedgwick of The Clos-
er, last years best drama actress
winner, found herself closed out
of the category this year.
Ed ONeill, who was snubbed
last year for Modern Family,
this year received a supporting
actor bid for his role as patriarch
in the comedy.
Two Oscar winners, Winslet
andMelissaLeo, haveachanceto
score an Emmy for Mildred
Pierce. Leo, who also appears in
the NewOrleans drama Treme,
received a supporting actress bid
for the miniseries.
Emmy voters have a chance to
flaunt their risk-taking side with
Game of Thrones, given the
usual resistance to rewarding
genre shows such as fantasy or
science fiction.
The series basedonthe George
R.R. Martin novels scored a best
drama nod but only a single act-
ing bid, for Peter Dinklage in a
supporting role.
Other best drama contenders
besides Game and Mad Men
are Boardwalk Empire, Dex-
ter, Friday Night Lights and
The Good Wife.
Modern Family is competing
with The Big Bang Theory,
Glee, The Office, Parks and
Recreation and30Rock for the
best comedy crown.

opportunity to win an Emmy
for The Office.

Kingston Twp. supervisors
table public events ordinance
KINGSTON TWP. Town-
ship supervisors tabled the
passage of a proposed public
events ordinance Wednesday
due to several concerns brought
to their attention after a hearing
on the matter.
The townships public exhibi-
tions and amusements ordi-
nance has not been updated
since 1977 and Supervisor
James Reino Jr. said it is part of
a series of ordinances the town-
ship wants to update.
John Gibbons, a pastor at
Back Mountain Harvest As-
sembly, said the ordinance may
cause unintended consequenc-
es for applicants. The Back
Mountain Harvest Assembly
sponsors a large-scale Fourth of
July fireworks display annually,
and there have been issues in
past years concerning parking
and destruction to nearby resi-
dents properties.
Reino said the ordinance
update was not the result of
trying to amend issues with
specific events, but rather to
bring the township up to the
present time.
Gibbons said there are several
confusing pieces of the pro-
posed update, including park-
ing, security and lighting issues.
Supervisor Frank Natitus
agreed with Gibbons, express-
ing his opposition to the ordi-
nance. He said he was willing to
sit down with Gibbons and Chet
Mozloom, executive director of
The Lands at Hillside Farms, to
address specific issues.
The board also voted to
switch its first due advanced life
support from Trans-Med Inc., of
Forty Fort, to Dallas Fire and
Ambulance, at the request of the
Trucksville Fire and Ambulance
Association.
Reino said the ambulance
associations reasoning for the
switch involved wanting the
emergency medical services
providers to be community and
volunteer-based.

Luzerne Borough Council
reviews treasurers report
LUZERNE Borough council
reviewed a detailed treasurers
report during Wednesday nights
regular council meeting.
Several council members had
complained during previous
meetings that the treasurers
reports were often sparse and
outdated. The new reports,
prepared by William Balavage,
will now feature information as
it was available at the close of
the previous month.
As of June 30, 2011, Luzerne
had a total budget of
$319,436.95 with a general fund
balance of $92,314.
If anyone tries to tell you
were broke, theyre pulling your
leg, council President Mike
Jancuska said.
The incomplete information
hampered the boroughs ability
to make fast and informed deci-
sions. The council now intends
to continue to refine the reports
to make them as thorough and
informative as possible.
In other news, the council
voted to adopt an updated
stormwater management ordi-
nance.
Solicitor Jonathan Spohrer
explained the ordinance follows
a model provided by the Federal
Emergency Management Agen-
cy and was strongly recom-
mended by Luzerne County.
Had council not adopted it,
the borough would have had
great difficulty in obtaining
federal disaster relief funding in
case of an emergency.
Spohrer stated that while the
new ordinance would eventually
allow residents in flood-prone
areas to save on their flood
insurance, it could also stifle
land development.
Jancuska then pointed out
that the ordinance will regulate
development in the Back Moun-
tain and prevent excess water
runoff flowing into Tobeys
Creek.
Council also agreed to the
details of a compensation pack-
age for Luzerne Police Cpl.
Mike Kotwasinski, the boroughs
K-9 officer.
Kotwasinski, who cares for
Byron, the boroughs police dog,
outside of his normal working
hours, will now receive an addi-
tional days pay at a rate of
$13.50 per hour each month.
Luzerne had already been
practicing the other aspects of
the compensation agreement,
which included designating a
specific vehicle for K-9 usage,
establishing a K-9 bank account
and adding a rider to the insur-
ance at a cost of $250 per year.
In other police news, Sgt.
Edward Florentino submitted
his resignation Florentino stated
he was proud to have been one
of the original officers to restart
the police force but was leaving
to pursue further professional
services.
Mayor James Keller thanked
Florentino for his services and
referred to the resignation as a
loss for the borough.

Damaged road ownership
discussed at Jenkins Twp.
JENKINS TOWNSHIP
Several roads that are in dis-
repair took up much of the time
allocated for public address
during the Jenkins Township
Supervisors meeting on
Wednesday.
Joe Sperrazza and Rick Pac-
chioni informed supervisors of
stretches of damaged road along
Industrial Drive, Old Boston
Road, Sarf Road, and Demark
Road.
"This has been going on since
2007 without any real progress,"
Sperrazza said.
The township wont perform
repairs on the roads until they
are determined to be publicly
owned. Legally, the township
cannot perform repairs on the
roads if they are privately own-
ed. I want to make sure we are
legally sound. As long as our
legal department tells us we can
do it, I dont have a problem
with it, Secretary/Treasurer
Stanley E. Rovinsky said. Sper-
razza presented the board with a
letter stating that at least some
of the roads were public, as well
as a petition from residents
living on Sarf and Demark
Roads asking the board to ad-
dress the problem. Unfortunate-
ly for residents, a solution may
still be far off.
"Even if we get permission to
do it right now, we still have to
fund it in the budget, said Ro-
vinsky.
Steffen Lizza
Dupont Borough Council
passes traffic ordinances
DUPONT Borough Council
responded to the concerns of
residents by passing several
traffic ordinances during Tues-
day nights regular meeting.
The borough will erect stop
signs at the corners of Oak and
Penn streets and will add stop
and 15 mph signs to Pittston
Avenue and Waterford and
Whitman streets in the Quail
Hill development.
Several residents from those
areas have consistently attended
council meetings to lobby for
the regulations, claiming that
speeding has steadily increased
over the past few years.
They also expressed concern
for the many families with small
children who seem to have
sprung up during that time as
well.
Council President Stanley
Knick also announced the bor-
ough would purchase a natural
gas powered recycling vehicle.
Current cost estimates on the
truck are placed at approximate-
ly $213,000, but Borough Man-
ager Patty McDonald is sched-
uled to meet with a representa-
tive from the Peterbilt Motors
Co. to see what modifications
could be made to possibly bring
the cost down.
Dupont has been approved for
a $149,000 state Alternative
Fuels Grant. The terms of the
grant require the borough to
contribute an additional
$17,000.
If the truck were to be pur-
chased, a fuel station would also
have to be constructed. Knick
stated that he believed a brand
new, low pressure station could
be installed at a cost of $10,000.
The borough has also re-
ceived $100,000 in state funding
to construct a municipal storage
garage. Knick explained the fuel
station would be installed on
the garage property, and he
hoped the $100,000 funding
could be tweaked to include the
cost of the fuel station.
In other news, it was recently
brought to McDonalds atten-
tion that seven houses on Pack-
er Avenue in Dupont have been
paying taxes to other municipal-
ities. Two of the properties have
been paying the borough of
Avoca, while five have been
taxed by Pittston Township.
I feel that they are our tax
dollars and we should go after
them, Knick said after acknowl-
edging that Dupont maintains
the section of the street where
the properties are located.
McDonald pointed out that
911 center representatives have
informed the borough that any
emergencies at the locations
would have to be handled by
Dupont service providers.
Council member Bernie Zie-
linski noted the problem was
first identified in the 1960s, but
after a three-year struggle be-
tween municipal and county
officials, the borough decided to
abandon the effort.
McDonald has thus far con-
tacted John Bonita of Pittston
Township, who expressed his
intention to review the matter
with township engineer Mike
Amato of Pasonick Engineering.
She has also spoken with
Tony Alu from the Luzerne
County Assessors Office and
intends to schedule a meeting
with all involved parties to at-
tempt to get everyone on the
same page.

Lake Township will file claim
to recover missing taxes
LAKE TOWNSHIP The
result of an audit on tax collec-
tor Donna Kocher revealed
$5,636.03 of missing, but paid,
taxes.
On Wednesday night, super-
visors voted unanimously to file
a claim with the tax collectors
bond holding company, Ohio
Casualty Insurance, to recover
missing taxes.
Attorney Mark McNealis said
a total of $5,636.03 in taxes paid
into the township was unac-
counted for during a time span
from 2006 to 2009. He advised
supervisors the quickest way to
recoup the money is to file a
claim to the bond holder.
A bond is a type of insurance
that is required for all tax collec-
tors to protect municipalities if
property tax payments are lost
or stolen.
Kocher held the position as
tax collector for Lake Township
from 2003 to 2010. Kocher re-
signed because she was unable
to obtain an affordable premium
bond for 2010.
She fell under scrutiny in
2010 when Luzerne County
Controller Walter Griffith sub-
poenaed her twice for her 2009
tax books and proof of bonding.
This year, supervisors request-
ed Ray Knaub and Company,
certified public accountants,
Wyoming, perform an audit on
taxes collected by the township
during Kochers term.
In other news, two county
owned bridges damaged in the
flood of 2006 will be repaired by
the end of August. Chairman
Lonnie Piatt said Pickarski
Construction Company, hired
by the county, will wrap up its
work on the North Mountain
Road bridge in two weeks.
They have to finish up the
upper road wing walls, Piatt
said. This was a pre-cast box
bridge.
Then Pickarski Construction
will move over to the East Sor-
ber Mountain bridge, he said.
Also, B & J Paving, Shaver-
town, received the contract for
small paving projects for 385
feet of Lamoreaux Road, 100
feet of Whitesell Road and 585
feet of Loyalville Road. The
companys bid was $9,800.
The other bid received was
from Pikes Creek, Sweet Valley,
for $39,756.

Stormwater ordinance
adopted by Duryea Council
DURYEA Borough council
Tuesday night adopted an ordi-
nance to outline the boroughs
compliance with the discharge
of stormwater.
Council also amended an
ordinance to increase the num-
ber of Recreation Board mem-
bers to seven from five.
Solicitor Donald Frederickson
introduced a pawn and second-
hand goods dealer ordinance.
The ordinance will be finalized
next meeting to have any new
dealers in Duryea organize
items bought to go through the
District Attorneys Office sys-
tem, which tracks stolen items.
The Duryea Police Department
is on Facebook with updates
and facts for the borough.
Councilman Al Akulonis Jr.
made a motion to find out the
ownership of the alley between
lower Marcy and Swetland
Street and have the borough
incur the $300 charge. Council-
man Michael McGlynn second-
ed the motion. Councilman
Frank Groblewski and Council
Vice President Joan Orloski
were absent, but the majority of
the council said no to the mo-
tion.
This does not mean the issue
is dead, said council President
Audrey Marcinko, concerning
last meetings discussion of
alleyway ownership.
Akuloniss motion stemmed
from the open floor work ses-
sion before the council meeting.
The paving of the alley between
lower Marcy and Swetland
Street was brought up, and the
ownership had not been discov-
ered due to cost issues. At the
last session, Akulonis claimed
the alley was on a 2009 list to be
paved. Marcinko told the audi-
ence at this months open floor
session, There are streets that
have to be paved. Alleys come
second. The session erupted
into arguments amongst the
council members and from the
audience.
Marcinko provided a copy of
notes from 2009 with streets
handwritten for paving that did
not include the alley. Akulonis
said the notes were speculation,
and not official.
Akulonis and McGlynn re-
quested the special meeting
minutes. Marcinko then read
the Aug. 22, 2009 special meet-
ing minutes. No specific streets
were mentioned.
Borough Manager Lois Mor-
reale said the handwritten notes
are the only proof. The open
session further degenerated, the
old argument of whether the
paving money was the same or
different from the 2009 money
resurfaced, and the session had
to be called to order, to which
Akulonis responded with, We
were going to pave that alley,
and, Youre just jealous.

Venesky tells Rice Twp. he is
cleared of ethics allegations
RICE TWP. Supervisor
George Venesky presented a
report from the state Ethics
Commission at Tuesdays super-
visors meeting stating he has
been cleared of allegations that
planning board Secretary Tho-
mas Cherry made against him.
The Ethics Commission
stated that Veneskys activity in
question was minor.
Venesky had been accused of
using his position of supervisor
to benefit an immediate family
member or a business by direct-
ing the township zoning officer
to issue zoning/building per-
mits to a developer to avoid
compliance with residential
sprinkler requirements for new
construction. The permits were
for a real estate company em-
ploying his wife.
The state legislature repealed
the sprinkler law in April.
In other business, the super-
visors said the township is still
accepting applications for the
vacancy on the zoning hearing
board. All residents interested
in the position are invited to
apply at the municipal building.
The supervisors also ap-
proved the Stormwater Manage-
ment Ordinance recommended
by the planning commission.

Salem Twp. may have to incur
demolition fees for property
SALEM TWP. The town-
ship supervisors learned on
Tuesday evening that the town-
ship may have to absorb the cost
of razing a burned-out house at
531 East Front St. because the
owner of the property, who
resides in Arizona, has failed to
act to have the structure re-
paired or demolished.
The house is located adjacent
to the Crispin Mansion and has
been in a burned-out state since
a blaze that occurred last win-
ter. Karen Karchner, codes offi-
cer, said that the owner, Karen
Golden of Arizona, was notified
more than 60 days ago that the
structure had been determined
by a structural engineer to be
unsafe. She said it is unsafe to
even conduct potential buyers
on an interior tour. Golden has
had the property listed for sale.
But it was discussed at the
supervisors meeting that engi-
neering estimates are that it
would cost up to $150,000 to
renovate the structure. It was
also stated that if Golden fails to
act, it could cost the township
$25,000 to have it razed. Solic-
itor Anthony McDonald stated
the township would have to file
a lien against the property in
order to recover its expenses.
After discussing their options,
the supervisors voted unani-
mously to have Karchner author
a polite letter to Golden seek-
ing a resolution.
In addition, the supervisors,
in order to avoid any other legal
ramifications, and to learn if
there might be more liens
against the property, voted to
have a title search undertaken.
The supervisors were also
informed by Karchner that PPL
has plans to install a sanitary
sewer extension from the Sus-
quehanna Steam Electric Sta-
tion along Confers Lane to
intersect with the system Salem
had installed over the past two
years. Karchner said that at this
point PPL is proposing to exe-
cute all of the work and absorb
the costs of installing a system
of piping. It was stated the pro-
ject is proposed for 2012. PPL,
Karchner said, will be responsib-
le for the design, engineering
studies and permitting and will
present a final plan to the super-
visors for their approval.
Robert Pearses, chairman of
the supervisors, commented:
Make sure we get all of this in
writing. Pearse also noted that
since the line will pass within
150 feet of houses along Confer
Lane, residents, under prevail-
ing township code, will have to
connect to the Salem Township
system.
PPL, in a letter to Judy Boud-
man, township manager, stated
an intention to seek a permit
from the state Department of
Environmental Protection for
the construction of a sanitary air
emission unit at the nuclear
power plant. T.L. Harper, vice
president of the Bell Bend Pro-
ject-Development, stated in the
letter that PPL is acting in ac-
cordance with Pennsylvania law;
Salem has 30 days to submit

Reader lobbies to protect
traditional marriage
H
omosexual activists have scored big in
New York. The defeat for marriage
there makes passing a constitutional
amendment in Pennsylvania defining
marriage as the union of one man to one
woman necessary. The process is getting
under way in Harrisburg.
In every state where a ballot referendum
was offered to voters 30 states in all,
including California Americans over-
whelmingly voted to amend state constitu-
tions to protect traditional marriage. Penn-
sylvanians will do the same if offered the
chance in 2012. Otherwise, Pennsylvania
might be the next victim of the well-fund-
ed gay rights machine, which labels oppo-
sition bigots and homophobes.
Few folks take issue with what consent-
ing adults do privately in bedrooms. What
Americans dont accept is a definition of
marriage thats not marriage. If you look at
the moon and call it Jupiter, its still the
moon. Theyre not equal, and identifying
the moon as the moon doesnt make some-
one a bigot or lunaphobe.
Its time to close the door on same-sex
marriage. Contact your state legislators
and tell them to move swiftly toward a
state constitutional amendment upholding
traditional marriage. After abortion, this is
the most important moral issue of our
time.

Peoples Budget makes
sense to reduce debt
I
n a letter to the president, Sen. Bernie
Sanders, I-Vt., wrote: Everyone under-
stands that over the long-term we have
got to reduce the deficit a deficit that
was caused mainly by Wall Street greed,
tax breaks for the rich, two wars and a
prescription drug program written by the
drug and insurance companies.
House Republicans are holding the
world economy hostage so we can afford to
continue corporate welfare and tax cuts for
the rich. I encourage the president to call
their bluff. So should you.
Our experience since World War II has
been that when taxes on the rich are high,
our economy flourishes and the debt de-
creases. When they are low, our economy
struggles and the debt increases.
Sen. Sanders and others in Congress
have proposed the budget for the Amer-
ican people. This budget produces a def-
icit reduction of $5.6 trillion (spending
cuts of $1.7 trillion and a revenue increase
of $3.9 trillion) without cuts to the safety
net and a budget surplus in 10 years.
The GOP voted not to raise the debt
ceiling and for Congressman Paul Ryans
budget. Its not clear how that would work.
Ryans budget would increase the debt by
$6 trillion over the next 10 years, while
slashing social programs and raising taxes
for more than 80 percent of America. An
intentional and unnecessary tragedy is
unfolding in Washington.

Budget to read more about it.

GOOD MORNING and
welcome to the inaugural
Luzerne County Budgie
Awards, our homage to
the men and woman who
struggled to build public
school district budgets
from the sawdust left by Gov. Tom Cor-
betts lumber mill approach to state educa-
tion funding. Lets get right to it.
The Early Bird-Avoids-the-Flak Budgie:
This goes to Northwest Area School
Board, which managed to be the first dis-
trict to approve a final budget on June
22 keeping it out of the public eye when
most other districts scrambled to OK
their plans during the last week of June.
This is an upset. Lake-Lehman looked
like a shoo-in for the award. Unlike most
districts, Lehman administrators figured
right from the start that Corbett wouldnt
increase state spending to cover any of the
lost federal stimulus dollars. Lehman was
preparing to end programs and restructur-
ing curriculum before most school boards
were offering specific cuts. Yet despite the
head start, the Black Knights couldnt
muster a final vote until June 25.
Best Performance in a Drama Budgie:
This contest wasnt even close. The al-
ways affable and usually even-keeled Su-
perintendent Tony Perrone went against
type when Greater Nanticoke Area passed
its austere $24.3 million budget, cutting
more than $1 million from last years
spending. Its either cut, or next year or
the next not have a school, Perrone
warned. Some of the districts are not
going to survive.
Considering that Perrone is widely
credited with helping to save GNA from
bankruptcy in the 1990s and that he
continues to save the district money by
working without a salary years after retir-
ing, something he downplays other
school boards might want to give his
warning weight.
Best Melodrama Budgie: A competitive
field, what with two school boards split-
ting votes (with one member absent),
thus failing to pass a budget on the first
try. Wilkes-Barre Area should have been a
lock after failing to pass a budget until
July 1, one day after the state-mandated
deadline. But this one goes to Crestwood.
The Mountain Top school board sched-
uled a vote and canceled it; the union and
board bickered over concessions and ac-
cused each other of number fudging; and
parents sold lemonade to raise money to
keep full-day kindergarten It doesnt
matter whos side youre on, this was the
best show since Dynasty was canceled.
Best Comedy (if we could laugh) Bud-
gie: West Side Career and Technology
Center, a sleeper candidate if ever there
was one. West Sides Joint Operating Com-
mittee usually passes a budget that is
rubber-stamped by the 45 members of five
school boards that send students to the
center. This year, that budget cut sports,
and members of the boards at Lake-Leh-
man and Wyoming Area rigorously dis-
approved, preventing the budget from
being enacted.
The plotline would make the Marx
Brothers blush. The center called a meet-
ing of all 45 members; 24 showed up and a
couple more joined via phone. When they
still couldnt agree to a budget, some
board members started calling absentees
to get votes. You could almost here Chico
Marx arguing with Groucho in A Night at
the Opera about a contract: You cant fool
me, there aint no sanity clause!
And lastly, The Wont Budgie: To all the
teacher unions that refused to negotiate a
pay freeze to help districts weather the
economic storm. I understand their reluc-
tance and appreciate that many offered
alternative savings ideas.
But its hard to prove they did this for
the kids.

ENNSYLVANIA law-
makers should take
care in considering a
bill that would let
school districts use students
test scores to measure teach-
er performance.
The legislation would man-
date a statewide change as
early as next year. Standar-
dized-test scores would weigh
heavily in determining
whether teachers keep their
jobs, receive tenure or get
merit pay.
Giventhe sorry state of edu-
cation, with students drop-
ping out and flunking at
alarming rates, it makes sense
to use sterner measures to
evaluate teachers, reward the
best educators and show the
door to those who continually
fail to improve.
It also makes sense to in-
clude test scores as a compo-
nent of teacher evaluations.
After all, the federal No Child
Left Behind law makes test
scores the basis for its rating
of schools, so how well teach-
ers do in preparing students
for tests is important.
But recent cheating scan-
dals, including allegations of
test irregularities at certain
Pennsylvania school districts,
that have rocked public edu-
cation around the country
show the dangers of placing
too much emphasis on stan-
dardized testing.
In many of these cases, edu-
cators faced unrealistic ex-
pectations and pressure to
meet testing benchmarks. But
thats no excuse for making
decisions that cheatedschool-
children out of a real educa-
tion. They were taught howto
pass a test, but little else.
Union leaders have not fully
embraced the Pennsylvania
proposal. Instead, they have
rolled out their own reform
plan to revamp how teachers
are evaluated. The two pro-
posals form a good starting
point for discussions leading
to the best model.

OTHER OPINION: BETTER SCHOOLS
Use reason when
rating teachers
E
VEN IN THE best of
times, the Wyoming
Valleys nonprofit
groups seldom have
theextracashandsparetimeto
spread the word about their
good deeds or their pressing
needs. They struggle even
more so to get out their mess-
ages during lean times such as
these.
Asingle editorial cant dothe
chore of updating you on all
their important and praisewor-
thy activities. But this one
strives to provide a compelling
sample, in hopes that it con-
nects area residents such as
you with charitable organiza-
tions that coulduse a boost this
summer, and vice versa.
The Wyoming Valley
Chapter of the American Red
Cross dispatched its disaster
response volunteers earlier this
month to Plymouth and other
areas hit by localized flash
flooding. It continues to assist
victims, some of whose homes
have been declared uninhabit-
able.

Barre, PA18702.
The Family Service Asso-
ciation of Wyoming Valley re-
cently held its Answer the
Call fundraising campaign,
seeking support for its many
community-minded programs,
including Help Line.
Help Line, accessible at 1-
888-829-1341, is an information
and referral service for North-
eastern Pennsylvania residents
in need of social services. It al-
so provides crisis intervention.
Another popular way to aid
Help Line is to participate in
the Pauly Friedman 5K Family
Walk/Run. This years event is
set for Aug. 14 at Misericordia
University in Dallas. For de-
tails, call 823-5144 or visit

Wyoming Valley Habitat
for Humanity is searching for
partner families who are in
need of housing. Successful
partners help to build, then live
in, Habitat homes sold at rea-
sonable prices with zero-inter-
est, 20-year mortgages.
Potential partners are en-
couraged to attend an informa-
tional session to learn about
the application process, includ-
ing financial criteria. The ses-
sion will be held from 10:30
a.m. to 12:30 p.m. July 23 at
Boscovs department store in
Wilkes-Barre. For details, call
820-8002 or visit this website:

due Aug. 1. For information, go

As the leaders of many, Lu-
zerne County-based nonprofit
agencies can attest, public
funding streams are running
low this summer, or running
dry. Many private donors, wary
of the whether the economic
recovery will continue or col-
lapse, have become more cau-
tious about doling out dollars.
Unfortunately, hunger,
homelessness and other mis-
fortunes dont take a timeout
while organizations, or na-
tions, fix their bottom lines; in
fact, those social troubles often
intensify.
If they could, the Valleys
nonprofit groups wouldtell you
so themselves.

The revenue from the tax
about $271million last fiscal year
alone is sent to the states Gen-
eral Fund.
A bill that will soon be intro-
duced in the State House by Ma-
jority Leader Mike Turzai, R-
Bradford Hills, would overhaul
the states liquor sales system. In
addition to privatizing the sale of
liquor and wine, it would revamp
the tax system and would spell
the endfor the 30percent per bot-
tle markup that the LCB charges.
The 30-percent markup of the
product allows us toreturnaprof-
it to the general fund, said Sta-
cey Witalec, press secretary for
the liquor control board. That
profit, she said, supports servic-
es and programs that benefit all
Pennsylvanians.
In addition to the 30-percent
markup, the 18-percent John-
stown Flood Tax and the logis-
tics, transportation, and mer-
chandising factor fee would be
eliminated if Turzais bill be-
comes law. That fee offsets just
what its name implies the cost
to the LCB of transporting, stor-
ing and promoting the products.
The fee ranges from 50 cents to
$2 a bottle, depending on size.
Only the 6 percent sales tax
would remain unchanged. The
bill also calls for a newgallonage
tax to ensure revenue neutrality
and offset the elimination of the
Johnstown Flood Tax.
Gallonage taxes are imposedin
26 other states for spirits and 35
other states for wine. The tax
rates would range from $8.25 to
$12 per gallon based on type of li-
quor and alcohol content. This
tax would be indexed to an infla-
tion rate after the first five years.

OnThursday, Antonelli saidthestateDe-
partment of Education promised to pro-
videthedistrict withdatausedinthereport
bytoday. Thedistrict will scrutinizethede-
tails down to student and classroomlevels
tosee if there was cheating, or if the aberra-
tions can be explained by district efforts to
boost thescores, as requiredbyfederal law.
Pressure to succeed
Pressure is high to succeed on the math
andreadingtests. Thefederal lawknownas
No Child Left Behind requires that the per-
centage of students scoring proficient or
better increase steadily until reaching 100
percent by 2014.
In 2009 the year the report analyzed
the goals were 56 percent in math and 63
percent in reading. This year the goals are
67 percent and 72 percent respectively.
The more consecutive years a school
misses annual percentage goals, the more
severe the potential consequences, with a
state takeover looming as the big stick.
Hazleton Area will finish its investiga-
tion and report to the state within 30 days
after receiving the data, Antonelli said.
StateSecretaryof EducationRonaldToma-
lisaddedurgencyThursdaybyrequiringall
districts implicated in the 2009 report to
conduct an internal study, setting the 30-
day deadline.
Regionally, along with Hazleton Area,
schools were flagged in the Scranton,
Abington Heights and Berwick school dis-
tricts.
Antonelli saidthedistrict takestheinves-
tigation very seriously, but also said its
hardtoseewhereanywidespreadcheating
could have occurred unnoticed.
Thetestscomesealedandarekept under
tight security until they are administered,
hesaid, soitsalmost impossibleforateach-
er or student to get an advance peek at the
test in order to prepare for it.
There is no universal answer source be-
cause tests are returned to the state for
grading. Soateacher or administrator cant
simply correct tests using a handy sheet.
They would have to go through the test
booklets, deduce the correct answers, and
make the corrections.
Even if someone tried to do that, there
aredifferent versions of thetests, randomly
handedout withineachclassroom. Anyone
trying to correct errors would have to keep
tabs on which student had which test. And
they wouldnt have much time; the tests
and booklets are secured in a guidance of-
fice at the end of a testing session.
Other safeguards
There are two other safeguards: The
state sends observers into classrooms dur-
ing testing unannounced. And, Antonelli
argues, in a district with more than 10,000
students, it seems hard to believe wide-
spread cheating could go undetected.
Nonetheless, cheatingcant beruledout,
Antonelli said.
But a possible explanation has already
been discovered, Antonelli said. Important
data the district sends annually tothe state
was lost for a short time without explana-
tion.
We had an issue in the 2008-09 school
year where our entire file on economically
disadvantaged students, which is several
thousand students, was sent electronically
to Harrisburg, Antonelli said. Harrisburg
said they never received it. We did a resub-
mission, but we believe this report was
compiled without that data.
That would make a big difference be-
cause the test proficiency goals must not
only be met by all students, but must be
met by several subgroups of students who
traditionally do poorly in standardized
tests. One of those subgroups is econom-
ically disadvantaged students those from
low-income families.
And one of the factors the 2009 report
looked for was sharp changes in the num-
ber of students taking a test in each sub-
group.
If the company that conductedthe study
compared district data from 2007-08 with
faulty data from 2008-09, it would have
lookedasif ourpercent of economicallydis-
advantaged students took a dramatic de-
cline, Antonelli said, which apparently
wouldtrigger aflag inthestatistical anal-
ysis.
CHEATING
Robert Fisher said.
The police searched Andre,
found $14 in his pocket and gave
it tothecabdriver, hisfathersaid.
Despitethelackof physical evi-
dence and a grainy surveillance
video from inside the taxi that
showed a tall, slender, hooded
male reaching inside the cab
when Andre is tall but well-built,
a South Korean judge found
Andreguiltyof thecrimeandsen-
tencedhimtotwoyearsinprison.
Andres mom, Sandra Fisher,
said her son refused to plead
guilty, against his South Korean
lawyers advice.
He was under the impression
nothing was going to happen to
him because he didnt do any-
thingwrong,SandraFishersaid.
She noted that Andre was not
permitted to call witnesses in his
own defense at the trial, which
appears to be a violation of the
Status of Force Agreement be-
tween the United States and
South Korea, which is formally
called the Republic of Korea.
Astatus of force agreement, or
SOFA, isanagreement betweena
host countryanda foreignnation
stationing forces in that country.
A SOFA establishes the rights
and privileges of foreign person-
nel present in the host country.
Andres parents say that the
U.S. Armyhas done little tonoth-
ingtohelponeof theirown, other
thanprovide MREs (meals ready
to eat) for their son while hes in
prison, and they hardly sustain
the 6-foot, 5-inch athlete.
His family is confident that
Andre, whoplayedtight endwith
the Hazleton Area Cougars be-
fore he graduated in 2007 and
then for a year at Kutztown Uni-
versity, was raised with strong
values and would never steal.
The Fishers adopted Andre
when he was 7 after their daugh-
ter, Jill Zapotocky, got to know
him while doing an internship
with Northeast Counseling and
pleaded with her parents to take
himin.
I just saw such love in him,
Jill said of her brother. Hes the
typeof personyouwouldliterally
want to go into battle with.
TheFisher familyfelt that they
were getting nowhere with calls
tothe Army command, soa close
friendof Andres, BrittanyGresh,
askedtolet hercontact themedia
to bring Andres situation to
light.
Gresh, 20, of Danville, has
been friends with Andre since
she was 6 or 7 years old. She
learned about his arrest and con-
viction from posts on his Face-
book page.
I was absolutely shocked,
Gresh said.
She contacted the U.S. Embas-
sy and U.S. Consulate, but repre-
sentatives told her it wasnt their
jurisdiction because Andre is in
the military. She then contacted
local television news stations to
bring Andres plight out in the
public eye.
Hes in the military and the
government is not doing any-
thing andits not something they
should be getting away with,
Gresh said.
When Michael Keslosky first
heard of Andres situation, he
contacted the Fisher family. Kes-
loski, a veterans advocate and a
veteran of the Vietnam era and
OperationIraqi Freedom, saidhe
considers Andre a brother.
Kesloski has beenactingas ali-
aisonwiththeArmy, JudgeAdvo-
cate General attorneys and elect-
ed officials for the Fishers.
He said hes appalled that the
Army didnt even request to ob-
tainjurisdictionof thecase, espe-
cially because the alleged crime
would be considered minor, giv-
en that no weapon was involved.
Kesloski also took issue with
alleged violations of the SOFA
such as Andre not being allowed
to call defense witnesses and not
having military representation
present during his questioning
and at the trial.
Representatives fromthe offic-
es of U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-
Scranton, and U.S. Rep. Lou Bar-
letta, R-Hazleton, said they have
been in contact with the Fisher
family and are looking into the
matter.
Emails sent toa U.S. Armyrep-
resentative to whom a reporter
was referred by the Army press
office in Washington, D.C., were
not returned.
Kesloski, Gresh, Zapotocky
and the Fishers all expressed
hope that the public will contact
the U.S. Army and their elected
officials and ask that they push
the government and the military
to intercede on Andres behalf.
A candlelight vigil is planned
for Andre at 8 p.m. on July 30 at
Memorial Park in Hazleton. Kes-
loski said he hopes military sup-
porters will organize similar vigi-
ls on Public Square in Wilkes-
Barre and Courthouse Square in
Scranton for the same date and
time.
The only thing I can think of
worse than this is losing your
child, Robert Fisher said. We
just want himout of there.

tax increases proposed by one
side or the other so far.
It appeared attempts to avoid a
default were proceeding on two
tracks one involving the nego-
tiators at the White House, and
the other, a fallback alternative.
One Republican, speaking on
condition of anonymity, said that
in the talks so far, negotiators
had agreed on about $1.5 trillion
in deficit cuts, far less than the
$2.4 trillion or so needed to meet
Obamas demand that the debt
limit go up enough to tide the
Treasury over through the 2012
elections.
A summary that House Major-
ity Leader Eric Cantor prepared
for the talks earlier in the week
showed the bulk of cuts coming
from day-to-day operating bud-
gets of federal programs.
Also included were as much as
$245 billion from Medicare, in-
cluding higher premiums for
wealthier beneficiaries, and addi-
tional savings from skilled nurs-
ing homes and home health care.
The summary indicated that fed-
eral workers would pay more for
their pensions, agriculture subsi-
dies would be cut and food
stamp spending would be re-
strained.
The days events were shad-
owed by warnings from Federal
Reserve Chairman Ben Ber-
nanke and JPMorgan Chase CEO
Jaime Dimon. Speaking sepa-
rately, the two men admonished
bickering lawmakers that failure
to avoid an unprecedented de-
fault could have a devastating ef-
fect on an already anemic U.S.
economy.
Adding to the urgency,
Moodys Investor Service has an-
nounced it is reviewing Ameri-
cas bond rating for a possible
downgrade, and there was grow-
ing concern overseas, too. A Chi-
nese rating agency, Dagong
Global Credit Rating Co., also
advised of a possible downgrade,
and Chinese Foreign Ministry
spokesman Hong Lei said: We
hope that the U.S. government
adopts a responsible policy to en-
sure the interests of the inves-
tors.
It was unclear when McCon-
nell and Reid might unveil their
legislation, or whether they
would first present their ideas to
Obama and others involved in
the daily meetings at the White
House.
McConnell said the plans had
not been discussed in depth at
Thursdays White House ses-
sion, which lasted less than 90
minutes.
One option under discussion
by the Senate leaders is creation
of a group of lawmakers who
could recommend spending
cuts, possibly including changes
in benefit programs, that would
be guaranteed a yes-or-no vote in
Congress.
Another would be to invite the
House to add spending cuts to
the legislation, to take effect as
soon as Obama requested more
borrowing authority, including
some that have emerged in pri-
vate talks led first by Vice Presi-
dent Joe Biden, and now by Oba-
ma.
The seriousness of the situa-
tion was underscored through-
out the day.
Testifying before a Senate pan-
el, Bernanke said a default would
deal a self-inflicted wound to
the nations economy, driving up
interest rates and slowing recov-
ery from the deep recession.
Dimon, speaking to reporters
in New York, said default could
prove catastrophic. Why take
that chance? I wouldnt take that
chance, he said, answering his
own rhetorical question.
Obama met with congression-
al leaders at the White House for
a fifth straight day, although
White House press secretary Jay
Carney cautioned not to expect a
hallelujah moment when it
was over.
Talks have been stymied by a
dispute over tax increases as part
of any deal to cut future deficits.
Obama and Democrats want
them, while Republicans dont.
The concept under discussion
by the Senate leaders is a more
elaborate version of a plan
McConnell suggested earlier in
the week to a less-than-enthusi-
astic reception from conserva-
tives.
In his first substantive remarks
on McConnells initial suggesti-
on, Speaker John Boehner told
reporters, What may look like
something less than optimal to-
day, if were unable to get an
agreement might look pretty
good a few weeks from now.
Carney said if there was no
progress toward a bipartisan
agreement on cuts by Friday,
then we have to begin looking at
making sure that we fulfill our
obligations to uphold the credit
rating of the United States.
He did not elaborate.
Whatever choice was made, it
was clear time was running out.
Treasury Secretary Timothy
Geithner met privately at the
Capitol with Senate Democrats,
emerging to say: We have no
way to give Congress more time
to solve this problem.
So the alarms covered a broad
front: Geithner is a senior official
in the Obama administration,
Bernanke is the nations central
banker and Dimon the head of
one of Wall Streets best-known
firms.
Similar warnings have been di-
rected at lawmakers repeatedly
since Geithner announced that
Aug. 2 was essentially the day of
reckoning. The Treasury has
been relying on unusual mea-
sures since early May to avoid
breaching the current debt ceil-
ing, which stands at $14.3 tril-
lion.
Congress and the White
House have responded to the
warnings with a spate of high-
profile meetings but little if
any apparent progress toward a
solution.
Boehner also took steps dur-
ing the day to present a common
front with House Majority Lead-
er Eric Cantor, his second-in-
command, who has seemed at
times to take a dominant role in
the White House talks.
Reid criticized Cantor in un-
usually personal remarks on the
Senate floor, saying he has
shown he shouldnt be at the ta-
ble.
And Republicans agree he
shouldnt be at the table, he add-
ed, referring to published ac-
counts of other GOP lawmakers
criticizing Cantor anonymously.
Cantor brushed aside the crit-
icism, and Boehner came to his
defense at a news conference.
We have been in this fight to-
gether, he said, placing his arm
around Cantors shoulder, add-
ing that any report that the Vir-
ginian has been anything less
than helpful is just wrong. ...
Were in the foxhole.
Cantor and other members of
the party leadership balked sev-
eral days ago when Boehner pri-
vately shared details of a possible
sweeping deal with Obama that
could have meant higher taxes.
The speaker announced he
would no longer pursue the plan.
Apart from his role in the
White House talks, Cantor
staged a high-profile walkout
from an earlier set of negotia-
tions led by Biden, irritating
some Democrats who noted the
talks were near an end anyway.

PLAINS The newest professional
sports francise in Northeastern Penn-
sylvania will pay homage to the areas
Irish-American heritage.
The previously unnamed indoor la-
crosse team will go by the moniker
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Shamrocks,
team officials announced Thursday at
a press conference.
The Shamrocks logo a clover-rid-
dled shield bearing Irelands national
colors was also unveiled at a press
conference at the Woodlands Inn &
Resort.
We have a very strong Irish-Amer-
ican heritage in this area, said Sham-
rocks president and owner Jim Jen-
nings. We could not have picked a
more appropriate name.
The Shamrocks begin play in the
North American Lacrosse League in
January 2012 at the Mohegan Sun Are-
na at Casey Plaza.
Owners chose the Shamrocks monik-
er over the Haymakers and Bullies.
Team officials liked the nickname in
the early stages of the organizations
development and reached out to local
college marketing classes and focus
groups for their input.
Everyone seemed to love the
name, said Jennings. We didnt get
any negative feedback on it. We looked
at some other names but this one kept
on coming back to us.
Jennings stated that the inspiration
for the teams logo drew from the sim-
pler designs of Major League Soccer
teams, specifically the Philadelphia
Union.
The teams shield design is based
on a modified version of the shield of
arm from Ireland, said the logos cre-

WASHINGTON Almost as soon as it
began, former baseball star Roger Clem-
ens perjury trial ended Thursday in a
mistrial the judge blamed on prosecutors
and said a first-year law student would
have known to avoid.
U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton left
the questionof a newtrial upinthe air. But
he called a halt to the trial under way after
prosecutors showed jurors evidence that
he hadruledout videotapedrevelations
that a teammate had said hed told his wife
Clemens confessed to using a drug.
Walton scolded prosecutors and said he
couldnt let the former All-Star pitcher
face prison if convicted on such extreme-
ly prejudicial evidence.
Mr. Clemens has toget a fair trial, Wal-
ton said. In my view, he cant get it now.

SANDWICH, England Thomas
Bjorn and Tom Lewis have nothing in
common except for the unlikely posi-
tion they shared Thursday atop the
leaderboard at the British Open.
Its not just that one is twice as old.
Or that Bjornis a 40-year-oldpro who
wonders howmuch longer he can com-
pete at the highest level, while Lewis is
an amateur making his major cham-
pionship debut, his best golf still to
come.
The biggest difference are their me-
mories of Royal St. Georges.
Bjorn took a small step toward atone-
ment with a birdie on the par-3 16th
the hole that cost him the claret jug in
2003 when he took three shots to es-
cape a pot bunker on his way to a 5-
under 65 in the toughest conditions of
the opening round.
He made a birdie on Thursday, and
couldnt help but smile when he saw it
bounce away from trouble and toward
the flag.
When I hit the shot, I thought, This
is going to struggle. So when it just
made it over that bunker, that was just a
smile of knowing that things were go-
ing my way today, Bjorn said.
Lewis ranoff four straight birdies late
inhis round, anamazingstretchthat be-
gan on the par-5 14th. Thats the hole
where Lewis wrapped up the British
Boys Amateur Championshiptwoyears
ago, the highlight of a sterling amateur
record. Apar on the final hole gave him
a 65, the lowest ever by an amateur in
the British Open, making him the first
amateur to lead this championship in
43 years.

this year at Royal St. Georges.
During practice rounds this week,
spectators munching on fish and
chips in the concession area watched
footage on giant TV screens of Bjorn
trying to get out of the sand on the
16th hole the last time the British
Open was held here.

sad ending was predictably the same.

BUL L E T I N BOARD
By Mark Dudek
Arch Madness has already had an amazing season and tonight his
journey takes himto the Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. The seven-
year oldBalancedImage gelding has beennothing short of sensation-
al in his 2011campaign, winning in seven of his eight starts. His most
recent start back on July 2, at the Meadowlands, was perhaps his fin-
est effort yet in the $220,075 Titan Cup Final. Leaving from post six,
the Trond Smedshammer trained multi-millionaire made a speed
brush just past the half mile marker and never looked back, crushing
anoutstandinggroupof Free-For-All Trotters byeight openlengths in
worldrecordmileof 1:50.2. I certainlydont seeanyoneevenremotely
close to himanywhere in the country right now, so sit back and enjoy
what promises to be an exciting show in this evenings tenth race
feature.

STANDINGS/STATS
SALT LAKE CITY Russ
Canzlers hits grew progressiv-
ely less valuable as Wednesday
night continued.
Good thing for him that his
first one went so far at the Tri-
ple-A All-Star Game. Not just
for him, really anybody that
wanted to see scoring.
The Durham Bull, a Hazleton
resident, smoked a 370-foot
home run in the second inning
that served as the production
point for the only three runs of
the game, an International
League triumph at Spring Mo-
bile Ballpark against the home
Pacific League.
Canzler, 25
years old and
in his first sea-
son just a level
shy of the ma-
jor leagues,
earned MVP
honors a cou-
ple of hours after he took a first-
pitch ball then hammered the
second to right-center field. The
.290 hitter with 10 home runs
and 53 RBI before the break
found himself hitting in the No.
8 spot.
It was a great pitch to hit,
with runners on base it was in
up in the zone over the middle
of the plate, Canzler said. I
thought it was out when I hit it,
to be honest.
He finished 1-for-4 in a game
with just nine hits total in the
capital city of Utah, which had
12,439 fans probably expecting
more offense because thats
common around here on ac-
count of the altitude.
Canzlers shot came off Las
Vegas lefthander Brad Mills
who was 7-7 with a 3.97 earned
run average and had given
up 13 home runs.
The other three hurlers Can-
zler faced had better luck. He
hit a grounder to second base in
the fourth and a hard shot back
at the pitcher in the seventh,
both for outs.
Perhaps the only disappoint-
ment for Canzler in his return
West (he played in Arizona and
Idaho for the Chicago Cubs or-
ganization at lower levels) was
that his hope to show off his
versatility in the field was never
possible.
He played nine innings at
third base for the first time in
about a month, and never field-
ed a ball. Hes mostly been used
in the outfield in North Carolina
during his first season with the
Tampa Bay farm system follow-
ing free agency.
I tried to keep that a secret,
Canzler said, smiling with the
Columbus manager sitting to
his left. I didnt want to scare
anyone. Thats just the way the
game goes sometimes. There
are other games when it feels
like every ball is coming hard at
you. But it was just an honor to
be here and have a chance to
play.
Canzlers less magnificent
hits were right in line with the
game, where opportunities to
score were few and far between.
There were 10 strikeouts and
four double plays total.
The Pacific League, which
mustered just three hits, left the
bases loaded in the seventh,
keeping alive Canzlers likeli-
hood at being the hero. His In-
ternational League pals strand-
ed runners at the corners in the
eighth.
Canzlers last plate appear-
ance came in the ninth, when
he faced another lefty this
time with runners on first and
second with no outs. He quickly
hit into a double play started by
a soft grounder to the shortstop.
Meanwhile, Adam Warren
was dominant in his first trip to
Utah.
The Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
righty pitched two innings, al-
lowing just two baserunners in
the third and fourth. One hitter
reached by single, the other
from an error at shortstop.
He was eager to test out all of
those horror stories he heard
about pitching at higher eleva-
tions. Columbus manager Mike
Sarbaugh praised his impromp-
tu staff for sticking to its guns
and forcing a lot of ground
balls.
Warren, who entered with a
6-3 record and 3.20 earned run
average, was a late replacement
because of some International
League roster changes that in-
cluded some scratched Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre teammates.
This was my first all-star
game ever, and I was a little
nervous at the start, Canzler
said. But I wanted to come out
aggressive. Youd rather do that
in these situations and not try
to feel the game out.
He said it with a smile, and
an extra messy grey jersey. An
IL teammate hit him with a
shaving-cream pie in the face
for his big hit, a nice souvenir
from three days in Utah.
T R I P L E - A A L L- S TA R G A M E
Canzlers early clout provides the only scoring
Hazleton native went 1-for-4,
but his early three-run homer
was enough for IL to win it.

Russ Canzler
TOLEDO, Ohio -- Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre starter Ivan Nova
was good last night.
Unfortunately for him and
the Yankees, Toledo starter
Charlie Furbush was better.
In a battle of two pitchers
who were demoted from the
major leagues recently, Fur-
bush out dueled Nova in pitch-
ing the Mud Hens to a 4-2 vic-
tory at Fifth Third Field.
Nova, making just his sec-
ond start for Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre after his demotion from
New York on July 3, allowed
seven hits and three runs in
seveninnings, walkingone and
striking out five. But Furbush
gave up just five hits and a pair
of runs in 6 2/3 innings walk-
ingone andfanningsixtohand
the Yankees a loss in their first
game following the all-star
break.
I thought Nova threwwell,
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre man-
ager Dave Miley said. He
wasnt quite as sharpas his first
start [against Buffalo on July
7], but he gave us a chance to
win.
Thats all you can ask for
from your starter.
Nova struggledinthefirst in-
ning, giving up a bloop single
to Jeff Salazar who was
erased on a double-play and
thenwalking Carlos Guillenon
a borderline 3-2 pitch.
That walk hurt when the
next batter, Ryan Strieby,
slammed a 1-1 pitch from Nova
over the fence in left-center for
his 13th home run of the sea-
son.
I thought we caught a tough
break there because I thought
we had Guillen struck out,
Miley said. We didnt get the
call, but regardless of how that
plays out, youve got to score
runs.
I thought their guy [Fur-
bush] threw the ball well. We
needed to make some adjust-
ments against a tough pitcher
like that, and when you dont
do that youll strike out 11
times. We hadsome opportuni-
ties; we just didnt cash in.
One of those opportunities
came in the second, when
Brandon Laird singled with
one out and then raced to third
on a double by Gustavo Moli-
na. Agroundout by Luis Nunez
scored Laird, but Molina was
left strandedonagroundout by
Doug Bernier.
Those two outs started a
string where Toledos Furbush,
who was optioned to the Mud
Hens just before the All-Star
break, retired14of 15hitters he
faced.
One difference that I sawin
[Furbush] since he was [in the
majors] was that he threwall of
his pitches for strikes, Toledo
manager Phil Nevin said. And
that makes his fastball more ef-
fective.

SANDWICH, England (AP) A
pick-me-up from his caddie and a favor-
able change in weather helped Graeme
McDowell remain in the hunt at the
British Open after a horror start to his
first round.
The 2010 U.S. Open champion was
reeling after making a double-bogey 6
at the first hole at Royal St. Georges on
Thursday, soon followed by another
dropped shot at No. 5.
Weeks of preparation were threaten-
ing to be undone there and then. Thank
goodness, then, for caddie Ken Com-
boy.
Ive got to thank him for keeping me
in the moment because my head was
spinning after a few holes, McDowell
said. Thats what this course and what
major championships can do to you.
Maybe four or five years ago, I wouldnt
have been able to turn that round.
McDowell, ranked No. 9, managed to
recover his poise, and four birdies in a
back nine played in benign, still condi-
tions saw the Northern Irishman come
home at 2-under 68. He is tied for sixth,
three shots off the lead, and clear of
many of his chief rivals for the claret
jug.
The old cliche (in the first round) is,
You cant win it, you can only lose it. I
tried to lose it but I managed to hang in
there. Im in a great position, he said.
With Luke Donald, Lee Westwood
and Rory McIlroy three of the
worlds top four all shooting open-
ing-round 71s, McDowell finds himself
in solid position.
It could have been so different.
I just got off to a horrible start.
Three days perfect preparation, nice
warmup, walk onto the first tee and just
put one of my worst swings of the week
on it, he said. My second shot, all I
could do was just hit it over the back
and I pulled a horrible lie.
I make double and walk to the sec-
ond tee wondering what the hell just
happened.
After his win at Pebble Beach and his
Ryder Cup exploits at Celtic Manor last
year when he holed the winning putt for
Europe, McDowell is made of sterner
stuff these days.
Perseverance, staying in the present
and just believing in myself, he said.
Patience is what you need, especially
in links golf.
With the wind dying down to leave
Royal St. Georges defenseless in the
late afternoon, McDowell birdied Nos.
12 and 13, as well as the final two holes.
He could also be fortunate with the
weather on Friday, with the forecast
predicting a calm morning when
McDowell tees off before conditions
worsen.
Youve just got to count yourself
lucky when it happens because luck
evens itself out over a year. It really is
about jockeying for position the next
couple of days, he said.
McDowell recovers, stays in contention

down, never drove him to de-
spair. You want to believe him,
but the fact he hadnt set foot on
these seaside links in the eight
years since suggests he might
still be in denial over the claret
jug he let Ben Curtis walk away
with.
You also want to hope hes got
enough left to make it to anoth-
er Sunday and a better ending.
The best guess, though, is that
his opening round 65 was a
one-off wonder by a 40-year-old
determined to make the most
if only for one day out of
an unexpected last whack at a
hole and course that treated him
so cruelly before.
For a day, at least, Bjorn had a
bit of revenge.
And for a day, at least, he was
tied for the lead in the British
Open.
If I can last all the way until
Sunday, well, only time will
tell, Bjorn said. But Im very,
very delighted with today.
If Bjorn somehow does last he
could become the most unlikely
winner since, well, Ben Curtis.
Bjorn came here this week not
only burdened by memories of
the past but with a game in such
disarray he couldnt figure out
what was wrong. He also came
without a spot in the Open,
getting in only Monday night
when Vijay Singh withdrew
because of injury.
He had no confidence and just
one round on Royal St. Georges
to prepare. The latter didnt
prove to be too much of a draw-
back because its a course he
may never be able to forget.
Leading by two shots with
three holes to play in 2003, he
lost the biggest tournament of
his life when it took him three
shots to get out of the bunker on
the par-3 16th. The shot wasnt
terribly difficult, but for Bjorn
the moment was.
One hand on the trophy and
let it go, he said afterward.
Bjorns career didnt exactly
fall apart in the aftermath of his
biggest disappointment. He won
a few European tournaments,
contended in the 2005 PGA
Championship and made a
comfortable living playing golf.
But hes no longer a consistent
threat on the European Tour,
and hes at a stage in his game
and his life where the shots no
longer come as easy as they
once did.
Im always honest with you
guys, Bjorn said. Ive been
very uncomfortable on the golf
course for a long time.
On a gray, breezy day Bjorn
found his comfort zone early,
getting under par with a birdie
on the second hole and staying
there the whole way. A short
missed par putt on the ninth
hole and a finishing bogey were
his only mistakes.
Bjorn not only avoided the
sand that cost him so dearly on
the 16th hole, but made the final
of three birdies in a row there.
Playing several groups behind
Bjorn, Curtis who shot a fat
77 on the day found himself
checking out what was going
on.
I looked up at the board and
said, Thomas is getting some
payback, Curtis said.
That wasnt the way Bjorn
himself looked at it, not surpris-
ing because hes spent eight
years trying to suppress the
memory of a major champion-
ship gone awry. He bristled at
the thought that the birdie on 16
or his round were some sort of
redemption, preferring instead
to remember all the good shots
that got him in position to pos-
sibly win.
The truth is Bjorn has been
around long enough to under-
stand that sometimes in golf
things just cant be explained.
That hole owes nobody any-
thing, and no hole in golf does,
and no golf course does, he
said. I played that Open, and I
played fantastic the whole week.
I tried to hit the right shot every
single time, and I didnt hit the
right shot on 16. That happens
in golf. Thats the nature of this
game.
On this day the game was
kind to Bjorn, who also has been
around long enough to under-
stand that major championships
are not won on Thursdays. The
round was a hopeful start for a
player who made the trip to the
coast of England with his expec-
tations set way low.
Winning on Sunday would be
the ultimate triumph.
Maybe then hell finally admit
that the golf course really did
owe him one.

It was a special moment for
me, winning here, and to come
back to where youve won is ex-
tra special, Lewis said. I was
just thrilled to be here, but to
shoot 65 the first round was
something I wouldnt have
thought. I was just happy to get
the drive off the tee at the first,
and that was all that mattered.
Adding to the nerves was
playing alongside Tom Watson,
such a popular figure in the Le-
wis household that they named
their oldest son after the five-
time Open champion. And to
think the kid only wanted to
make sure he didnt embarrass
himself in front of Watson.
He could be my grandson,
Watson said. I just had to smile
inside to watch him play. I
didnt play particularly well my-
self, but I certainly was im-
pressed by the way he played.
Equally impressive to Watson
was to overhear Lewis caddie
tell him there were still 54 holes
left.
But what a start.
Bjorn wasnt even in the tour-
nament until Vijay Singh with-
drew on Monday, giving the
Dane another shot at Royal St.
Georges. When someone sug-
gested if he would be better off
not playing to avoid memories
of his meltdown, Bjorn cut him
off.
A couple of people asked me
that question, Would you not
just want to go home? Bjorn
said. This is The Open Cham-
pionship. Where else do you
want to be?
Miguel Angel Jimenez also
played in the windy morning
conditions and had a bogey-free
66. He was joined later in the
round by former U.S. Open
champion Lucas Glover and
Webb Simpson.
A dozen players were at 68, a
group that two major cham-
pions from last year PGA
winner Martin Kaymer and U.S.
Open champion Graeme McDo-
well, who was 3 over through
five holes until a ferocious rally.
It was vintage links golf along
the Strait of Dover, where the
seaside wind can be as fickle as
the bounces on rolling turf of
Royal St. Georges. Flags that
were crackling throughout the
morning when Bjorn and Jime-
nez faced cold conditions and a
spot of rain were only rippling
when Lewis teed off in the after-
noon, and they were drooping
when the round ended.
The change was reflected in
the scores.
Rory McIlroy, coming off an
eight-shot victory in the U.S.
Open that made the 22-year-old
the centerpiece of this major,
rallied from a sloppy start for a
1-over 71, and he had no com-
plaints.
Anywhere around even par is
a good start, McIlroy said.
It didnt feel that way toward
the end of a long day.
The morning half of the draw
were a combined 223-over par.
The afternoon half combined to
go only 94-over par. There were
a dozen rounds in the 60s in the
morning, and 23 in the after-
noon.
Looks like the wind gods are
having an afternoon tea? came
a tweet from John Daly, who
was proud of his 72 in the morn-
ing.
The calmer conditions are ex-
pected for Friday morning when
Lewis goes out for his second
round, with the wind shifting
and becoming more fierce in the
afternoon. That figures to only
help Lewis, Glover and those
who got the late-early portion of
the tee times.
Lewis figures he has other ad-
vantages.
He has been around golf all of
his life his father once played
the European Tour and he
really feels at home on links
courses. The Royal & Ancients
tends to play its championships
for amateurs on the seaside
courses, and Lewis has played
only links this summer except
for one tournament.
Were used to the wind, Le-
wis said. Watching it on the TV
this morning, I didnt think
scores would be as low as they
are. But the wind dropped, and
that was the opportunity to
shoot a good score. And Im
thankful I did play well.
GOLF
Continued from Page 1B
SANDWICH, England For
the first time in11months, Rory
McIlroy walked off the 18th
greenintheearlystages of a ma-
jor championship and did not
see his name atop the leader-
board.
Thats how good he has been
at golfs biggest events.
And the way he rallied froma
rugged start Thursday in the
British Open, McIlroy didnt
think his 1-over 71 was all that
bad.
Anywhere around even par
was a good start, McIlroy said.
Facing enormous attention
coming off his wire-to-wire win
at the U.S. Open last month,
McIlroy made a fewkey putts in
the middle of his round to stea-
dy himself against a stiff breeze
at Royal St. Georges.
He was six shots behind Tho-
mas Bjorn, who played extraor-
dinarygolf inthe tougher morn-
ing conditions of wind and
some rain, andEnglishamateur
Tom Lewis, who took advan-
tage of better conditions in the
afternoon.
Trailing by any margin can
only be considered a strange
spot for McIlroy basedonhis re-
cent, amazing history. He has
been in the lead after seven of
the last eight rounds in the ma-
jors, the exception being the 80
he shot in the final round at the
Masters to lose a four-shot lead.
This day was different. And if
the 22-year-old from Northern
Ireland didnt know it, then he
at least heard it.
The media has been building
him up as golfs next star after
his record-setting performance
at Congressional. And when he
stepped on the first tee with a
freshening wind off the Strait of
Dover, the cheers resounded
the length of the 444-yard open-
ing hole.
It was great, he said. I
probably didnt take it in as
much as I could have. I was just
trying to concentrate on that
first tee shot and get that out of
the way. But its nice to have
that support out on the golf
course. Its fantastic. Hopefully,
I can give them something to
shout about.
It took awhile in the opening
round.
The biggest cheer came for
22-year-old Rickie Fowler, who
holeda 75-foot putt fromjust off
the back of the first green. McIl-
roy also went long, just a few
inches in fromof Fowler, and he
rammed his long putt some
eight feet past the hole and
wound up three-putting for bo-
gey.
Then came the par-3 third,
where McIlroy got one of the
wild, hard hops so often seen at
Royal St. Georges and wound
up in rough behind the green.
The chip came out heavy, lead-
ing to another bogey. And his
next tee shot went into deep
grass in front of a large knoll.
Suddenly, this didnt looklike
the U.S. Open champion. It
looked like the kid who shot 80
the last day at Augusta Nation-
al.
McIlroy powered a short iron
out and onto the green, hit a su-
perb chip from well left of the
greenat No. 5tofive feet tosave
par, and before long was back in
his comfort zone.
It helped being paired with
Fowler, an American of the
same age, same style of play
they both waste no time hitting
their shots andwitha history
of playing together despite be-
ing so young. McIlroy and Fow-
ler competedagainst eachother
in foursomes at the Walker Cup
four years ago when both were
teenagers at Royal County
Down.
That was a home game for
McIlroy, and this was not much
different.
The fans were great over
here, Fowler said. Obviously,
theyre cheering on Rory. It has
a feeling like hes a hero over
here now. Hes had a pretty big
impact, withimpressive play re-
cently and obviously at the U.S.
Open. So its fun to play along-
side him. Ive always enjoyed it,
anddefinitelyfelt likethecrowd
was in his favor today.
Fowler looked to be the bet-
ter of the two on this day, but
not so much at the end. Fowler
stalled in his round of 70. McIl-
roy rallied for a 71, starting with
a smart approach on the eighth
hole that rode up a ridge and
trickled back toward the hole to
four feet away for birdie.
Equally important was the
short, tricky par putt on the
ninth.

A T A G L A N C E
SANDWICH, England A glance at
the first round of the British Open:
Leading: Thomas Bjorn and Tom
Lewis, who both shot opening 65s.
Just behind: Three other players,
including former U.S. Open cham-
pion Lucas Glover.
Amateur star: Lewis, a 20-year-old
from Welwyn, England, is the first
amateur in any major to have the
lead since Mike Reid led the U.S.
Open after the first round in 1976.
Rorys day: For the first time in
nearly a year, Rory McIlroy didnt
have the lead in the early stages of a
major. McIlroy shot a 1-over 71 and is
six shots back.
Easy day: A total of 35 players
broke par on the normally tough
Royal St. Georges layout, while
another 15 matched par 70. The field
average was 71.9.
Forecast: Dry, with winds increasing
as the day goes on to 20-25 mph in
the afternoon.
Noteable: Bjorn, who only got in the
field after Vijay Singh withdrew, blew
a two-shot lead with three holes to
go to lose to Ben Curtis in 2003, the
last time the British Open was
played at Royal St. Georges.
Quoteable: Ive got a long way in
my career and hopefully I can pro-
duce good golf, and if not, then
theyre still poor. Lewis talking
about the sacrifices his parents
made to further his golf career.
Key pairings: 3:42 a.m. Graeme
McDowell, Jason Day, Bubba Watson.
4:31 a.m. Henrik Stenson, Tom
Lewis, Tom Watson.

LUZ-ARDIDEN, France
Spains Samuel Sanchez thrilled
fans of his Basque-based team
with the stage win Thursday and
Frances Thomas Voeckler sur-
prised himself by keeping the yel-
low jersey on Bastille Day as the
Tour de France finally hit the
mountains.
Defending champion Alberto
Contador ran into more, if mod-
est, trouble in the 12th stage by
losing ground to other race favor-
ites on the days final climb in the
Pyrenees.
The 131-mile run from Cug-
naux to the Luz-Ardiden ski sta-
tion featured three tough ascents
including two that are among
the hardest in pro cycling.
After 11 stages on wind-swept
flats and hills that favored sprint-
ers and breakaway riders, Thurs-
days mountains began to sepa-
rate the overall race contenders
from the rest of the pack.
The days toughest climbs
the Col du Tourmalet and the up-
hill finish in Luz-Ardiden gave
the favorites a chance to gauge
each others stamina and look for
signs of weakness.
Sanchez andJelle Vanendert of
Belgium overtook a group of
breakaway riders in the final
climb and the Spaniard then won
their two-man sprint in the last
several hundred yards, crossing 7
seconds in front of Vanendert.
Its incredible, Sanchez said
of his first Tour stage victory. The
Euskaltel-Euskadi rider, who fin-
ishedfourthoverall last year, said
he got extra inspiration from
spectators waving the red, green
and white flag of the Basque
country a nearby region along
the border between France and
Spain.
I cant believe I won this in
front of all our fans, he said.
Frank Schleck of Luxembourg
made a string of attacks on other
prerace favorites before surging
away to finishthird10 seconds
back and vault into second
place overall.
Italys Ivan Basso was fourth,
Australias Cadel Evans was fifth,
and Schlecks younger brother
Andy was sixth, each 30 seconds
behind Sanchez. Contador
placed eighth, 43 seconds back.
Voeckler gave the home crowd
a delight on Frances national ho-
liday, clinging to the yellow jer-
sey that he expectedtolose inthe
punishing climbs.
Im glad I was wrong, Voeck-
ler said. It clearly wasnt expect-
ed. Keeping the jersey was far
from expected as the stage start-
ed today.
You have to believe that the
yellow jersey gives you a bit of
added inspiration on the Bastille
Day.
Voeckler leads Frank Schleck
by 1 minute, 49 seconds overall,
and Evans is third, 2:06 back.
Contador is seventh overall, 4
minutes behind.
I was a bit careful, the three-
time Tour champion said. I saw
the Schlecks were discussing to-
gether and that they were going
to play their cards. Frank was the
stronger and both of them at-
tacked.
But Im nevertheless happy
with this first mountain stage.
Each day, I feel better ... I still
dont have my best legs. Im not
riding with the same rhythm, but
its encouraging.
Andy Schleck, the Leopard
Trek team leader who was run-
ner-up to Contador last year and
in 2009, said he and his brother
gave the Spaniard a preview of
whats to come.
A few crashes marred the ride,
including some on a harrowing
downhill.

ted an unsmiling Clemens on the
back as the judge announced his
decision. Asheleftthecourthouse,
Clemens did not comment but ac-
ceptedhugs froma couple of court
workers, shook hands with the se-
curity guards and autographed
baseballs for fans waiting outside.
The quick end on only the sec-
ond day of testimony was the sec-
ond mistrial involving a superstar
player accused in baseballs ste-
roids scandal. Home run king Bar-
ry Bonds was convicted three
months ago of obstruction of jus-
tice, but a mistrial was called on
three more serious false-state-
mentschargesafter jurorscouldnt
agree on a verdict.
Walton said he would hold a
hearing Sept. 2 to decide whether
Clemens shouldface another trial.
Hardin told reporters, I wouldnt
even hazard a guess about what
Walton will decide.
Walton could end the prosecu-
tion by declaring that a new trial
wouldrunafoul of doublejeopardy
the right not to be brought to
trial twice onthe same charges for
the same offense. But experts said
it was unlikely that he would go
that far, especially since the trial
was just under way.
Generally speaking, mistrial
does not bar a trial of the defend-
ant when the defendant requested
themistrial,saidHarrySandick, a
former prosecutor who now de-
fends white-collar cases. He said a
judge may make an exception for
misconduct onthepart of prosecu-
tors, but this appears to have been
a simple yet devastating mistake.
Howcouldthegovernment not
have reviewed each piece of evi-
dence after the courts pretrial rul-
ings? he said. This is crucially
important, and prosecutors have
to do this all the time.
The U.S. attorneys office in
Washington, which tried the case,
saidit wouldhavenocomment be-
cause of Waltons gag order. Clem-
ens also stayed mum.
Imnot going to say anything,
Clemens said as he left the cour-
thouse. He and his legal team
ducked into a nearby restaurant to
escape the media horde following
him.
The Clemens mistrial was the
biggest embarrassment for the
Justice Department in a high-pro-
file case since the prosecution of
Sen. Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, in
which the government failed to
turnover evidencefavorabletothe
defense. That failure, two years
ago, was so serious that Attorney
General Eric Holder stepped in
and asked a federal judge to throw
out Stevens convictions. The
judge did so.
The unraveling of the current
case began as prosecutors were
showingjurorsavideoof Clemens
2008 testimony before Congress.
He is accused of lying under oath
during that testimony when he
said he never used performance-
enhancingdrugsduringhis24-sea-
son career.
Clemens former teammate and
close friend, Andy Pettitte, had
told committee investigators that
Clemensconfessedin1999or2000
that he used human growth hor-
mone. Clemens has said Pettitte
misremembers or misheard
their conversation.
Prosecutors had wanted to call
Laura Pettitte as a witness to back
up her husbands account because
she says her husband told her
about the conversation the day it
happened. But Walton had said
Laura Pettittes statement wasnt
admissible since it didnt involve
direct knowledgeof what Clemens
said.
Inthevideoprosecutorsshowed
thejury, Rep. ElijahCummings, D-
Md., referred to Pettittes conver-
sation with his wife during the
questioning of Clemens. Walton
quickly cut off the tape and called
attorneystothebenchfor aprivate
conversation for several minutes.

NFL Players Association chief
DeMaurice Smith and a half-doz-
en current or former players also
were there, including Indianapo-
lis Colts center Jeff Saturday,
Baltimore Ravens defensive back
Domonique Foxworth, and Gi-
ants defensive end Osi Umenyio-
ra. Umenyiora is one of 10 player
plaintiffs in a federal antitrust
lawsuit against the league.
The NFL locked out players in
March, after negotiations broke
down and the old collective bar-
gaining agreement expired, and
now the preseason is fast ap-
proaching. With each passing
day, the need to arrive at a deal
to end the NFLs first work stop-
page since1987 becomes greater.
The Hall of Fame game that
opens the exhibition season is
scheduled for Aug. 7 between
the St. Louis Rams and Chicago
Bears, who hope to be able to
start training camp at the end of
next week. Yet camps will not
open without a new CBA in
place.
Talks gained steam in May,
overseen by a court-appointed
mediator, U.S. Magistrate Judge
Arthur Boylan, who is on vaca-
tion this week. Boylan ordered
both sides to meet with him in
Minneapolis early next week,
and the owners have a special
meeting set for next Thursday in
Atlanta, where they potentially
could ratify a new deal if one
is reached by then.
Even once an agreement in
principle on the core economic
issues is drawn up, there will be
more work to be done. Thats be-
cause there are certain issues
that wont be addressed in full
until after the NFLPA re-estab-
lishes itself as a union a proc-
ess that might take a couple of
days and can then serve once
again as a collective bargaining
unit for the players.
Items that could fall under
that umbrella include the
leagues drug-testing program,
health insurance, retired players
pensions and other benefits,
none of which is likely to be re-
solved completely while the
union is still dissolved.
Theres also a chance the play-
ers could pursue a lockout in-
junction for rookies and free
agents after an appeals court
ruled last week that the work
stoppage could continue.
Disruptions to the planned
preseason schedule would de-
crease the overall revenue pie.
While the parameters for how to
divide the more than $9 billion
in annual league revenues have
been sketched out, there are oth-
er sticking points still under dis-
cussion, including a rookie sala-
ry system and free agency guide-
lines.
The owners want longer roo-
kie contracts and have been
seeking more right-of-first-refus-
al tags for unrestricted free
agents. The players want to get
back to free agency rules similar
to 2009, when a four-year veter-
an whose contract expired was
unrestricted. That minimum
shifted to six years in 2010, when
there was no salary cap because
owners already had declared
they were opting out of the old
CBA.
This weeks talks in New York
began Monday with two days of
meetings involving primarily
lawyers. Wednesdays face-to-
face session was attended by
Goodell, Smith, owners and play-
ers went nearly 11 hours.
As Wednesdays meeting was
beginning, star quarterbacks
TomBrady, Peyton Manning and
Drew Brees plaintiffs in the
players antitrust suit against the
NFL issued a joint statement
saying it is time to wrap up ne-
gotiations.
NFL
ator Chris Lochinski, of Lock
Designs in Columbus, Ohio.
In the crest, the shamrock de-
sign is morphed into a la-
crosse stick on the top clover
leaf.
We wanted something
thats a little progressive, said
Jennings. We didnt want a
cartoon character. We wanted
to get away from that.
A uniform design will not be
unveiled until after the league
signs a jersey deal.
The popularity of Scrantons
St. Patricks Day Parade and
the strong Irish culture in the
area was a determining factor
in choosing the Shamrock
name.
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton is
the first team to unveil its
name and logo. Charlotte,
N.C. joins it as the only two
NALL franchises to have been
announced.
The NALL, according to
Jennings, will disclose four
more teams by the end of the
month.
The Shamrocks plan to
boost youth lacrosse develop-
ment in the Wyoming Valley.
Only four Wyoming Valley
Conference schools Dallas,
Delaware Valley, Lake-Leh-
man, Tunkhannock, Wyoming
Seminary sport lacrosse pro-
grams.
Fifteen years ago, when the
Penguins came to the area
there were very few hockey
teams in the area at the high
school level, said Luzerne
County Commissioner Tom
Cooney. Now, hockey is be-
ing played throughout the
whole area. I believe that is
going to happen with la-
crosse.
Lacrosse fans on hand were
enthusiastic about the team
logo and design.
I like the logo, said John
Van Der Wal, of Blairstown,
N.J. I think it looks fresh and
the name fits the area.

ORLANDO, Fla. Standing on a ma-
keshift football field atop a soundstage in
the middle of flashing lights, dancing
cheerleaders and screaming fans, Hank
Williams, Jr. lifted his cowboy hat and
beltedout the words that for more than20
years have become synonymous with the
start of the NFL season.
Hank Williams, Jr., the man who pop-
ularized the lyrics Are you ready for
some football? was in Florida on Thurs-
day recording the opening promo for an
upcoming season that, right nowat least,
is still in limbo, with owners and players
trying to strike a new labor deal.
Williams said he has sympathy for both
the fans who are crossing their fingers
that the season begins on time and those
around the negotiating table. In more
than two decades associated with the
league, he said he feels like a man in the
middle of a fight between his friends.
We were in there recording the audio
and I said, Why are we doing that, they
arent gonna play it, Williams joked.
But I know a lot of people in the football
worldthe owners, the players, the mar-
keting directors, and some of the great re-
tired (players). So I see where theyre
coming from. I said, Well if were going to
Orlando to shoot this thing, I guess
theyre gonna play.
Whether or not Williams is right, what
cant be disputed is that as much as fa-
mous broadcasters like Howard Cosell
and Don Meredith were identified with
Monday Night Football, now too is the
62-year-old country star, who originally
signed a one-year contract to be a part of
the production in 1989.
His song All My Rowdy Friends Are
Here on Monday Night, is a remixed ver-
sion of his 1984 hit song All My Rowdy
Friends are Coming Over Tonight. The
retooled version of the song won himfour
Emmy Awards in the early 1990s as the
opening theme to Monday Night Foot-
ball.
You think about it, 22 years, theres a
whole generation of kids that are just get-
ting out of college that dont know Mon-
day Night Football without Hank Wil-
liams, Jr., said Bob Toms, an ESPN vice
president who was with ABC when Wil-
liams was initially hired. That song has
become an anthem and that line has be-
come the catchphrase that says Monday
night. Hanks face and outfit, etc., kind of
says Monday Night Football to a lot of
people.
ABC last produced the show for net-
work television in 2005 before handing it
over to fellow Walt Disney Company
property ESPN full-time for the 2006 sea-
son. It was a seismic shift for a show that
thrived outside of cable television for 35
years.
Im the only one, everybody else is
gone. The true ABC Monday Night Foot-
ball theyre gone, Williams said.

OConnor to sign
his book on Jeter
Nationally recognized sports
columnist Ian OConnor will
attend a book signing for his
new release The Captain: The
Journey of Derek Jeter at
Barnes & Nobles Booksellers,
Arena Hub Plaza, Wilkes-Barre
Township, on Saturday July 16th
at 1:00 p.m.
Said OConnor of Jeter: He
never hit 25 home runs in a
season, never won a batting
title, never won a Most Valuable
Player award but he did win
championships and a place in
the debate of the greatest all-
around shortstop of all time.
Jeter, who just recently be-
came the first Yankee to eclipse
the 3,000 hit plateau, has also
distanced himself from his peers
as a clean player in an era that
may come to be known more for
its connection to performance-
enhancing drug use than its
stars.
The Captain is culled
from the numerous interviews
OConnor has conducted with
Jeter over fifteen seasons as well
as several interviews OConnor
has done with Jeters team-
mates, coaches, opponents and
friends. OConnors book pro-
vides an in-depth look at both
Jeters time on the field, in the
clubhouse and away from the
game.
OConnor has been named the
number one columnist in Amer-
ica is his circulation category by
the Associated Press Sports
Editors three times and current-
ly writes for ESPNNewYork-
.com and also hosts a radio
show on 1050 ESPN.

FRANKFURT, Germany
Lauren Cheney was just 11 dur-
ing the 1999 World Cup, watch-
ing from the stands and imagin-
ing what it would be like to be
on that field with Mia Hamm
and Michelle Akers and Julie
Foudy and Brandi Chastain.
Fast-forward a dozen years,
and its Cheneys turn in the
spotlight.
And somewhere, theres an-
other young girl watching.
Shes inspiring some 12- or
13-year-old girl just like she was
inspired, Chastain said Thurs-
day. Thats what I love about
this team, theyre continuing
the legacy.
That 1999 World Cup was a
watershed moment for the U.S.
team. All of womens sports, re-
ally. The players were part of
the first generation to reap the
full benefits of Title IX, and
they took it one step further by
making it cool for girls to play
sports. They were adored by lit-
tle girls and boys alike, so fa-
mous the players could go by
just one name. Mia. Brandi.
Foudy.
They packed stadiums from
coast to coast and not small
ones, either. Soldier Field. The
Meadowlands. Foxborough.
And the granddaddy of them
all, 90,000-plus in the Rose
Bowl for the final. They won,
too, beating China in a penalty
kick shootout to give the Unit-
ed States a second World Cup
trophy.
We showed where womens
athletics, womens team sports,
womens soccer and soccer in
general in America could go,
and it was a tremendous
event, said Tony DiCicco, the
coach of the 99 team. We
didnt realize totally what was
happening outside the event.
But it was life-changing. I think
it was life-changing for a lot of
people, including some of the
athletes on the current team.
As magnificent as the teams
success was, though, its cast a
long shadow on everyone whos
come after. Every U.S. team is
compared to the 99 squad, and
nobodys come close to measur-
ing up. Sure, the Americans
have won the last two Olympic
gold medals. But the World
Cup is soccers biggest prize,
and the U.S. hasnt even made
the final in the 21st century.
Until now, that is.
The U.S. plays Japan in Sun-
days final with a chance to be-
come the first country to win
three World Cup titles.
Id be tired of (the compari-
sons), too, if I was them. Thats
all theyve heard for 12 years,
said Foudy, who is now ESPNs
lead analyst for the tourna-
ment. What you hear from all
of them is, We just want to
forge our own identity, which
you can understand. Heres a
moment that the country can
embrace this team and wrap
their arms around this team
and they have defined it. No-
body did it for them.
Theyve given this country
such a reason to love them,
Foudy added. You couldnt
have scripted this better for
them.
This U.S. team isnt a pol-
ished, precise group that dis-
mantles opponents, the way the
99 team was. The Americans
arrived in Germany with three
losses in a five-month span,
what qualifies as an alarming
bad streak for a U.S. team,
and then lost a World Cup
group-stage game for the first
time.
But they grabbed their coun-
trys attention with one thun-
derous header by Abby Wam-
bach in the 122nd minute
against Brazil, and have contin-
ued to charm the folks back
home with grit, determination
and colorful personalities.
Their bandwagon is packed
with Hollywood celebs and fel-
low athletes not so packed
there isnt room for more,
though and one fan is so be-
sotted with Megan Rapinoe he
wrote a song for her. (Go
ahead, check it out on You-
Tube.)
All these Americans are mis-
sing is the World Cup title, and
they could take care of that on
Sunday.
Its cool weve completely
written our own story, Cheney
said. Maybe were not the fa-
vorites. Maybe people doubted
us. But we have pure hearts and
determination, and we believe
in each other so much.
And no one is prouder than
the members of that 99 team.
How could you not be proud
of the way they fought and
found a way against Brazil?
DiCicco asked. The core of the
1999 team was together for
more than a decade, and those
bonds have remained tight over
the last 12 years. With Foudy,
DiCicco, Chastain, Hamm and
Briana Scurry all here working
for ESPN, and Kristine Lilly
turning up at games as a fan,
the World Cup has turned into
something of a reunion tour.

NEW YORK The NBA laid
off about 114 people over the last
two days, planned cost-cutting
moves that a league spokesman
saidThursdayarenot a direct re-
sult of the lockout.
The laid off employees repre-
sent about 11 percent of the
league office workforce in New
York, New Jersey and interna-
tionally.
Spokesman Mike Bass told
The Associated Press the layoffs
are not a direct result of the lock-
out but rather a response to the
same underlying issue; that is,
the leagues expenses far outpace
our revenues.
The roughly11percent reduc-
tion in headcount from the
league office is part of larger cost-
cutting measures to reduce our
costs by $50 million across all ar-
eas of our business, Bass said.
The league said it lost $300
million this season after losing
hundreds of millions in each pre-
vious year of the collective bar-
gaining agreement that expired
at the end of the day June 30.
Owners locked out the players
after the sides remained far apart
in their final proposals. Commis-
sioner David Stern said at the
time it was too early to think
about how it could affect staff,
but acknowledged that the
league would have to go back
and look at everything now with
our operations.
But the reductions had already
begun. The NBA and teams had
trimmed staff by about 275 since
October 2008, either through lay-
offs or by leaving positions va-
cant when employees departed.
The league has also cut admin-
istrative costs, travel and new
technology. It consolidated offic-
es in Europe and Asia, closing of-
fices in Paris and Tokyo, and is
shutting down the studio in Se-
caucus, N.J. where it annually
holds the draft lottery.

Inflation watch
The governments Consumer Price Index will show how much the
rising cost of food and gas is affecting prices for everything else.
Many economists focus on a version of the CPI that excludes
energy and food. But energy costs have an impact on all goods
and services. So economists will be looking for evidence that
higher gas prices have driven up prices throughout the economy.
A look at the nations
factories
A slowdown in manufacturers
output the past few months has
been troubling for investors.
Factories were one of the big-
gest drivers of the economic
recovery. The Institute for
Supply Management has
already reported that manufac-
turing activity picked up in June.
Investors want to see if todays
report on industrial production
from the Federal Reserve con-
firms that assessment.
A report card for Citi
Citigroup was seen as the sick-
est of the big U.S. banks during
the financial crisis and reces-
sion. And investors dont believe
the company has recovered as
well as its competitors. It
releases its second-quarter
earnings today. Analysts arent
optimistic that Citis regular
banking activities like writing
loans will show its getting stron-
ger. Expect a disappointing
report to send Citis already sag-
ging stock price even lower. Source: The Commerce Department

Stocks continue rough run
U.S. stock indexes fell Thursday after
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Ber-
nanke said the central bank was not
ready to take immediate action to
further bolster the economy.
The retreat wiped out the prior ses-
sions gains, when some investors took
Bernankes first day of testimony to
Congress as a signal the Fed was get-
ting ready to roll out more extraordin-
ary stimulus.
The major indexes have now fallen
for four of the past five sessions.
Alcoa and DuPont led drops in 23
out of 30 Dow components.
JPMorgan Chase led gainers for the
blue-chip index, rising 1.8 percent after
the company reported increased in-
vestment-banking fees bolstered sec-
ond-quarter net income above esti-
mates.
Google earnings impress
Google Inc. ushered in new CEO
Larry Page with second-quarter earn-
ings that were far better than analysts
expected. The results released Thurs-
day reassured investors who had been
fretting whether Google would still
thrive under Pages leadership. The
Google co-founder replaced Eric
Schmidt, the CEO of the previous
decade, at the start of the quarter.
Wall Street wasted little time signal-
ing its exuberance with Pages perform-
ance. Google shares increased $52.69,
or 10 percent, to $581.63 in extended
trading after finishing the regular ses-
sion at $528.94.
Google earned $2.5 billion, or $7.68
per share, in the April-June period, a 36
percent increase from $1.84 billion, or
$5.71 per share, a year ago.
Revenue increased 32 percent to $9
billion, the first time in Googles 13-
year history that it has brought in that
much money in a quarter.
Air security program tested
The Transportation Security Admin-
istration said Thursday it will test a
program to pre-screen a small group of
select air travelers who volunteer more
personal information about themselves
so they can be vetted to get faster
screening at airport checkpoints.
The new program represents the
Obama administrations first attempt at
a more risk-based, intelligence-driven
passenger screening program.
The test program was expected to
begin sometime this fall.
It applies only to a small number of
frequent travelers who are U.S. citizens.
The TSA said it anticipates that be-
tween 5,000 and 8,000 travelers per day
will participate in the trial.
Exchange deal gets OK
German stock exchange operator
Deutsche Boerse AG said Thursday
that enough of its shareholders have
tendered their stock for its merger with
NYSE Euronext to go through.
Deutsche Boerse said that over 80
percent of shares were handed in by
the midnight deadline Wednesday. It
needed 75 percent.
Shareholders in NYSE Euronext,
operator of the New York Stock Ex-
change, approved the deal last week.

NEW YORK Borders
Group, the nations second-
largest book store chain that
once operated over 1,000
stores, appears headed for liq-
uidation after a judge on
Thursday approvedits motion
to auction itself off with a
teamof liquidators as its open-
ing bid.
The move came after an of-
fer made earlier this month
from a private-equity investor
disintegrated overnight.
Borders said it will accept
bids until 5 p.m. Sunday and
will give notice by Monday if
no other bidder emerges.
Earlier this month, a pri-
vate-equity investor from
Phoenix offered $215 million
for the company, plus the as-
sumption of $220 million in
debt.
But on Wednesday, cred-
itors objected, saying that the
agreement would not prevent
Najafi Cos., which owns Book-
of-the-Month Club, from tak-
ingpossessionof thecompany
andliquidatingit immediately
for profit. Landlords also ob-
jected.
Creditors saida bidfromliq-
uidators Hilco Merchant Re-
sources and Gordon Brothers
is stronger. They believe it
would pay out between $252
million and $284 million in
cash.
Creditors said in a court fil-
ing that they were hopeful Na-
jafi wouldsubmit a higher bid,
but Najafi stood by its original
offer.
On Thursday, Borders said
it wouldnt seek approval for
Najafis bid at a scheduled
hearing in the U.S. Bankrupt-
cy Court Southern District of
New York and designated the
liquidators as the primary, or
stalking horse bid.
Meanwhile, one analyst
speculated that if Borders liq-
uidates, that could spark a
higher bid for its chief rival
Barnes & Noble. Financier
John Malones Liberty Media
made a $1 billion offer to buy
Barnes & Noble in May.
Liberty Media has said it
values Barnes & Noble for
both its Nook e-reader busi-
ness and its retail stores, so a
full liquidation of Borders
would increase the value of
the retail side of the business,
Janney Capital Markets ana-
lyst David Strasser said.
This is perhaps an oppor-
tunity for a higher negotiated
bid via Liberty or an entrance
of another bidder, he wrote in
a note.
Borders Group Inc., based
in Ann Arbor, Mich., filed for
bankruptcy protection in Feb-
ruary.
The company startedwitha
single store in 1971, and
helped pioneer the book su-
perstore concept along with
larger rival Barnes & Noble
Inc.
It was brought down by
heightened competition by
discounters and online book-
sellers, as well as the growth
in popularity of electronic
books.
It currently operates about
400stores, downfromits peak
in 2003 of 1,249 Borders and
Waldenbooks, and has about
11,000 employees.

Customers walk into a Borders Books & Music store, in Ann
Arbor, Mich. Borders Group teetered on the brink of liq-
uidation Thursday after an offer from a private-equity in-
vestor disintegrated.
WASHINGTON A mixed slate of
reports Thursday showed the economy
is being held back by high gas prices
and sluggish hiring.
Economists are forecasting a pickup
in growth in the second half of the year.
But the latest data revealed only faint
signs of a turnaround.
The Commerce Department said re-
tail sales ticked up only 0.1 percent last
month, after declining the previous
month. Consumers spent more on cars
and in big chain stores in June, but less
on furniture and appliances.
The number of people who applied
for unemployment benefits dropped
last week by 22,000 to a seasonally ad-
justed 405,000, the lowest level in three
months. Still, applications have been
above 400,000 for 14 straight weeks, re-
flecting the weak job market.
U.S. companies paid less for raw ma-
terials and factory goods in June, a sep-
arate report showed. The decline in
wholesale prices was driven by the
steepest fall in energy prices in nearly
two years. Gas prices dropped by the
most since last May, the Labor Depart-
ment said.
Still, businesses and motorists are
paying nearly a dollar more per gallon
than they were a year ago. That has
forced many consumers to forgo discre-
tionary purchases. Growth in retail
sales has slowed since February
aroundthesametimethat gas prices be-
gan to surge.
Consumers are fatigued, said Chris
Christopher, an economist at IHS Glob-
al Insight. The only real good news on
the consumer side of the economy is
that gasoline prices started to fall, but
are still relatively high.
Another potential problem: business-
es may be forced to cut orders in the
coming months after adding to their
stockpiles for 17 straight months. Sales
across all levels of businesses fell inMay
for the first time in nearly a year, the
Commerce Department said in a fourth
report. Fewer sales are a sign that com-
panies may have overestimated con-
sumer demand.
Companies pulled back on hiring
sharply this spring. The economy add-
ed only 18,000 net jobs in June, the sec-
ond straight month of dismal hiring.
Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Ber-
nanke told Congress on Wednesday
that temporary factors, such as high gas
prices and supply chain disruptions
caused by the Japan crises, have slowed
the economy. They shouldbegintofade
and the economy should grow at a fas-
ter pace in the second half of this year,
he said. But if not, he said the central
bank is prepared to do more to stimu-
late growth.

NEW YORK The bidding
war is intensifying for pipeline
company Southern Union Co.
Williams Cos. said Thursday it
is increasing its offer in an effort
totopa competingbidfromEner-
gy Transfer Equity LP.
The new all-cash offer of $44 a
share values Southern Union,
which has about 125 million
shares outstanding, at about $5.5
billion. Williams previous bid
was $39 a share, but Energy
Transfer topped that earlier this
month with an offer of $40 a
share.
Southern Union, from 2001-
2006 based in Wilkes-Barre and
Scranton, owns and operates
20,000 miles of pipelines.
Williams said Southern Union
would complement its own busi-
ness, create a network of nearly
30,000 miles of regulated pipe-
lines and save $50 million a year
for the combined companies.
It said that including debt, its
latest offer for Southern is valued
at $9.4 billion.
The latest bid is 5.7 percent
premium to Southern Unions
closing price on Wednesday and
56 percent higher than shares
were before the first offer in June.
Southern Union shares gained
$1.82, or 4.4 percent, to $43.42 in
trading Thursday.
Dallas-based Energy Transfer
Equity had offered $33 per share
for the company in mid-June. A
week later, Williams offered $39
per share. Earlier this month, En-
ergy Transfer Equity raised its
bid to $40 a share.
As part of the latest offer, Wil-
liams said it has strengthened its
deal to make it less prone to regu-
latory hurdles and quicker to
close. It also said the cash deal is
not subject to any financing con-
ditions.
Williams is giving Southern
Union less than a week to finalize
the terms of the transaction; it
wants to end those discussions
by Tuesday.
Williams Cos., which is still on
track to split up its exploration
and production businesses by
fall, is based in Tulsa, Okla.

Matthew Craft, Elizabeth Gramling AP
Countdown to Aug. 2
On Aug. 2, the U.S. will reach its borrowing limit of $14.3 trillion. Unless the limit is raised, the
government could default on debt that comes due. That would likely cause heavy selling in the stock
and bond markets. But financial analysts and investors expect Congress and President Obama to
make a deal on budget cuts and raise the debt limit before the deadline. The haggling could go until
the last minute and make many investors nervous. Heres what to expect in the markets:
While investors wait
for a deal...
They may no longer see
government debt as a safe invest-
ment. If they start selling
Treasurys, yields will rise. Yields
on short-term Treasury bills may
rise the most because the govern-
ment must pay off many T-bills
every week so investors may
see them as having the most risk.
Problems in the Treasury
market could spill over to banks
and money-market funds. They
are big buyers of Treasurys, and
would see their assets falling
sharply in value if there is heavy
bond selling.
If interest rates rise sharply,
stocks and corporate bonds will
likely fall. They have benefited
from low rates over the last year.
The dollar may fall against
other currencies as the U.S.
loses some of its cachet as a
safe place to put money.
If there is a deal
Investors will give stocks a
relief rally because the U.S.
wont default on its debt.
But sharp cuts in the
budget could hurt the
economy. Federal spending
accounts for 8 percent of the
gross domestic product. A
deal to cut $2 trillion in
spending over 10 years could
shave 0.8 percentage points
off economic growth next
year, according to Goldman
Sachs.
Congress and Obama
may have to revisit the debt
limit in as little as 13 months,
according to estimates from
economists at Nomura
Securities. The next fight
over the debt limit could
occur next fall, during the
final months of the 2012
presidential election
campaign.

The hotel operators second-quarter
profit grew thanks to higher room
rates and new properties. But it cut
full-year guidance.
The banks second-quarter profit

The energy company, the countrys

My records show
that so far this
summer we've
had no rain on
27 of the past 45
days, yet our
rainfall since
June 1 is still
above normal.
Temperatures
have averaged a
little above nor-
mal as well, and
the long-range
outlook through
next week is
showing
warmer-than-
normal July
weather for our
area. It's quite
possible that
when we look
back on the
summer of 2011
there won't be
too much to
complain about.
Compliments will
abound today
with abundant
sunshine and
comfortable
humidity, but
more important-
ly tomorrow will
be a very sunny
day and dry as
well; great pool
weather!
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: Showers and thunderstorms will be likely along the Gulf Coast and through
much of the Southeast and will extend northward into portions of the Ohio Valley. A storm system
will produce showers and thunderstorms from the Northern Plains into the Upper Midwest as well.
The heat will continue over the central and southern Plains, with many locations topping 100 degrees.
