the state and places the region on
par with the national unemploy-

Data for July will be released
next week, but if it mirrors the

from 7.6 percent in June.

hearing is open to the public and
Toohil said that while testimony
will be taken only from those in-

Committee Chairman Rep.
Dave Reed, R-Indiana, said he ex-
pects up to a dozen hearings to
take place in the coming months
as a way to compile ideas that the
committee can then present to
House leaders as ways to facili-

Whichpolicies make the most

He said the feedback received
from those on the front lines will
be gathered, sorted through and
will be used to create policy.
Toohil said she requested a

Amazon to the incoming class of
college freshmen and they are
more likely to think of shopping
than the South American river.
PCdoesnt stand for political cor-
rectness andbreakinguponFace-
book is more common than any
more personal encounter.
These are among the 75 refer-
ences on this years Beloit Col-
lege Mindset List, a compilation
intended to remind teachers that
college freshmen born mostly in
1993 see the world in a much dif-
ferent way: They fancied pogs
and Tickle Me Elmo toys as chil-
dren, watched televisions that
never had dials and their lives
have always been like a box of
chocolates.
Once upon a time, relatives of
the current generation swore
never to trust anyone over the
ageof 30. This groupcouldargue:
Never trust anyone older than
the Net.
The colleges compilation, to
be released today, is assembled
each year by two officials at the
private school in southeastern
Wisconsin. It also has evolved in-
to a national phenomenon, a cul-
tural touchstone that entertains
even as it makes people wonder
where the years have gone.
Remember when the initials
LBJ referredtoPresident Lyndon
B. Johnson? Today, according to
the list, they make teenagers
think of NBA star LeBron James.
And speaking of NBA legends,
these kids didnt want to be like
Mike. They fawned over Shaq
and Kobe.
In their lifetimes, Major
League Baseball has always had
three divisions plus wild-card
playoff teams, andevery state has
always observed Martin Luther
King Day. The yadda, yadda,
yadda generation thats been qu-
oting Seinfeld since they were
old enough to talk also has al-
ways seen women serve as U.S.
Supreme Court justices and com-
mand U.S. Navy ships.
Then theres OJ Simpson.
These students were still in diap-
ers when the former NFL star be-
gansearchingfor the killers of Ni-
cole Simpson and Ronald Gold-
man.
Hmm, I knowthere was some
scandal about him, said Alex
Keesey, 18, an incoming fresh-
man from Beloit. I think it was
robbery or murder, maybe both.
Comments likethat canbealit-
tle jarring to older folks who
imagine that everyone knows
about the Simpson murder trial
and subsequent acquittal. But if
the generationgaphas youdown,
get used to it. The lists authors
note that technology has only ac-
celerated the pace of change and
further compressed the genera-
tional divide.
Older Americans whoreadpre-
vious Mindset Lists felt that life
was moving too quickly, list au-
thor Ron Nief said, and noweven
younger people share that senti-
ment.
Still not feeling old? Consider
this: Andre the Giant, River
PhoenixandFrankZappa all died
before these students were born.
They dont knowwhat a Commo-
dore 64 was, and they dont un-
derstand why Boston barflies
would ever shout, Norm!
Oh, andFerris Bueller couldbe
their father.
Nief and co-author, English
professor Tom McBride, say the
main lesson professors should
take from this years list is that
their incoming students have
never livedina worldwithout the
Internet. Fromthe moment these
kids were able to reach a table-
top, their fingertips probably
were brushingagainst computers
plugged into the World Wide
Web.
Andwhile that was largely true
for thelast fewclasses as well, the
authors say teachers need to be
extra vigilant about where this
years students are going for in-
formation.
The Internet is great for find-
ing facts, McBride says, but
theres a big difference between
facts and the knowledge that
comes from understanding con-
text behind the facts. He advises
professors to teach how to sup-
plement Internet searches with
library research.

"Most of the properties that have
caused trouble in the past were
not owner-occupied."

The Wilkes-Barre resident, who is restoring an
apartment building he owns and lives in, noted
neighborhoods tend to deteriorate when property is leased by
out-of-town landlords.
Restore Train Station
to maintain citys history
T
he Train Station means a lot, as I was
raised in its shadows across the street
where Lincoln Towers now stands.
I remember seeing President Truman at
the back of the train as he came to Wilkes-
Barre. I was about 4, our home address
was Lincoln Street, and our yard gated
onto Baltimore Street.
Back then it was a dirt road that ran
along the tracks from Coal Street to North-
ampton.
I watched the caskets of the soldiers
from the Korean War as they were loaded
onto little trailers pulled by a small engine-
like tractor.
The station had a model train that for a
nickel would actually run. It was in the
main area of the waiting space for all to
enjoy, and I sure did.
I remember the gate tenders at Market
and Northampton streets; the horse drawn
wagons delivering from the brewery to
bars across the town; the Western Feed
Store where they sold feed for everything
from the horses of the rag-man to your pet
rabbit; the coal we picked that had fallen
off the trains. We sometimes walked and
picked from the station to Blackman
Street, which to me seemed like miles.
Yes, that is only a building in poor repair
to some. But to me it has meaning. I won-
der how many of those around today care
for it as much as I do. If I could I would
save it myself.
I guess we all have things and places we
cherish for various reasons, and I cannot
explain why I chose that place. But to
those who are letting it rot, I can only say:
When it is gone we all lose a part of this
city that cannot be replaced.

Water customer against
proposed rate increase
T
his is a concerned citizen alert about
Pennsylvania American Water wanting
to raise its rates. Im a residential cus-
tomer in Wilkes-Barre, and my bill last
month for 2,100 gallons was $30.79.
For 15,000 gallons I would pay a $13
service charge, plus volume charge, plus
miscellaneous charges for a total of
$138.35 Today I read a CNN article show-
ing what people pay in 50 cities all around
the United States.
They are saying that people paid this
much for 15,000 gallons of water :
Atlanta (most expensive, $92.51. Imag-
ine that, we are higher than anyone
Other cities (focusing on the North), for
15,000 gallons: Baltimore $49.38; Boston
$79.24; Chicago $26.32; Detroit $34.66;
New York City $46.20; Philadelphia $54.93
People are being nickel-and-dimed in
every imaginable way, and if utilities plan
to add more burden to an already poor
economy with a lot of elderly and unem-
ployed, we have to just say no way.

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com TUESDAY, AUGUST 23, 2011 PAGE 11A
WITH THE eyes of an
outsider scrutinizing one of
our regions most imperiled
treasures, Jon Haeber
glommed onto two funda-
mental facts:
The old Central Rail-
road of New Jersey Train Station sitting at
the corner of Market Street and oblivion in
Wilkes-Barre boasts stunning interior dcor.
The 143-year-old way station has be-
come an apt example of how corruption
holds the area back; good-old-boys wheel
and deal behind closed doors, with the
public good always the last chip on their
gambling tables.
The California native stumbled on the
station by accident during a regional hunt
for compelling old edifices. Photographing
and researching architectural gems is a
passion he picked up in high school.
For a guy who conducted the bulk of his
research via the Internet, Haeber hit the rail
spike on the head when he posted his ver-
sion of the stations storied history on his
website Bearings.
He noted the station had been owned by
convicted (and admitted felon) Thom Gre-
co, that it was purchased from Greco by the
Luzerne County Redevelopment Authority
when it was run by Executive Director and
convicted bribe-taker Allen Bellas, and that
the sale occurred during the tenure of con-
victed former Luzerne County Commission-
er Greg Skrepenak, who accepted (extort-
ed?) free large-screen TVs from Greco.
Its irrelevant that the three pleaded guilty
to charges unrelated directly to the station
(duly noted by Haeber). The reality that
they all found the world of bribery and kick-
backs palatable speaks volumes.
When I talked to Haeber, he cited one
aspect about the station that puzzled him as
soon as he saw the interior: How can such a
marvel go unused for so long? In California,
a place like that would be quickly redevel-
oped, he said.
Of course it would. In most advanced
civilizations, an edifice so structurally
sound, exquisitely appointed and centrally
located would have lured a savvy investor
with a sense of and penchant for history. In
fact, it initially did, as Haeber recounted,
when the late Marvin Roth rehabilitated the
space into a restaurant and train-themed
hotel.
But this is Luzerne County, where we raze
standout properties like the long-lost train
station in Hazleton, or paste featureless
facades in front of the distinct beauty of our
own past, as with the building now housing
Boscovs in downtown Wilkes-Barre.
That we have lacked the historic sense
and communal will to save such places is
bad enough; that any effort to save them
would have potentially faced the sapping,
stifling atmosphere of corruption that per-
meates our governments is worse.
And that so many people caught in the
multi-year FBI probe (including Skrepenak
and Greco) have insisted they didnt know
they were doing anything wrong is a pox
upon us all.
Wilkes-Barres train station is a rare
chance to reverse this tragic travesty,
though every day it remains untouched is
another day disaster can strike as the home-
less squat in its elegantly paneled rooms and
stray cats turn its sturdy floors into an enor-
mous litter box.
The countys decision to use $1 million to
peel away external additions and get the
building back to its original footprint is a
good, if much belated, start.
As Haebers narrative notes, the station
still stands as testimony to many turning
points in our areas impressive history, from
agriculture to industry, from oppressed and
uneducated to true middle class, from King
Coal to a diffuse economy.
Restoring it could mark one more turning
point: From culture of corruption to a
county reborn.

OMEBODY HAD to
say it, and it might as
well be Starbucks CEO
Howard Schultz. A
round of boisterous applause
for Schultzs deliciously, in-
your-face call to other CEOs to
withhold campaign contribu-
tions to President Obama and
congressional incumbents.
The coffee guru has had
enough of political dickering
and is urging a boycott on cam-
paign donations to leaders in
D.C. until a fair, bipartisan
deal is reachedthat sets our na-
tion on stronger, long-term fis-
cal footing. Schultz made
clear he was referring to entit-
lements and revenues.
The recent showdown and
ineffectual handling of the
debt-ceiling crisis in D.C. was
hugely disappointing. Obama
was weak; the tea party dis-
played an inability to govern.
The whole affair was beyond
discouraging.
And so campaign contrib-
utors should join Schultz in
withholding money until our
leaders earn their keep.
Part two of his announce-
ment is toput his money where
his mouth is: Schultz is urging
U.S. companies to look past
worries about the economy,
stop sitting on cash and start
hiring. Schultz intends to hire
70,000 people in the U.S. dur-
ing the next year, though some
of those jobs already exist and
need to be filled.
His boycott of campaigncon-
tributions will be successful
only if other likely contributors
join him. But someone had to
embarrass the folks in D.C.
Someone had to say, lets get
the economy going by taking
matters into our own hands.
Way to go.

OTHER OPINION: DONATION BOYCOTT
Hit politicians
where it hurts
Y
OU DONT HAVE to
be an urban renewal
guru to see that
Wilkes-Barre has too
much old housing stock too
crammed together.
Take a stroll through most
neighborhoods and odds are
youll come across a stretch
where there is barely room to
walk betweenbuildings, where
facades need paint, windows
are boarded and porches sag.
Many times these situations
arise through no
fault of the home-
owners a bad finan-
cial stretch, a long
stint among the un-
employed, a fixed in-
come paired with
failing health. In
such cases the resi-
dents deserve sup-
port and assistance.
Strong neighbor-
hoods often grow from deep
roots.
And, certainly, modestly-
priced housing has its own
priceless value, providing a
chance at homeownership for
the young couple or the retir-
ing empty nester, the frugal
saver or the diligent soul seek-
ing a brighter future.
But often these are buildings
that have, in every meaningful
sense, outlived their useful-
ness. Many were squeezed in
when Wilkes-Barres popula-
tion was nearly double its cur-
rent count. Many defy the nat-
ural life expectancy of their
materials and construction.
They become abandoned
properties with unpaid back
taxes, or are snapped up by ab-
sentee landlords eager to make
a buck and indifferent to how
their actions reshape a place
they never see. They draw an
unsavory ilk into a once-clean
neighborhood, and the results
are familiar: Property values
decline; quality of life slips.
Which is why we felt cau-
tious optimism when reading
Sundays Times
Leader story
about city efforts
tobuy andraze de-
crepit properties.
Staff writer Jennif-
er Learn-Andes fo-
cused on multiple
lots near Carey
Avenue and South
River Street, but
notedthepurchas-
es have occurred elsewhere.
Yes, there is always a fear of
backroom deals for political
supporters. Yes, there are al-
ways questions of whether or
when any government should
get into real estate develop-
ment. And yes, it is easy to
think of other places where the
money could be well spent.
But if relatively modest tax
dollars are used on projects
that are conducted with trans-
parency and public discussion,
such efforts can counter bal-
ance free-market forces that
otherwise diminish the neigh-
borhood and the city.
OUR OPINION: NEIGHBORHOODS
Housing efforts

He plans to attend the Plymouth

Thedanceis animportant fun-
draising event for Volunteers of

of the organizations key services
have been threatened with fund-
ing cuts and proceeds from the
dance will help offset those cuts
and help local residents.
RedJones andMcKeownhave

calling square dances together
since the late1950s. In 2004, the
two callers produced a CD fea-

The VOA event has drawn
crowds of 500-700 people over
the years, with dancers coming
from as far away as New York,
New Jersey, Maryland, Georgia
and Florida.

ings, prompting him to suspend
them.
I want to reach out to all of
these groups to hear their con-
cerns and to let them know what
is being done on their behalf in
Washington, Barletta said. Ob-
viously the political fires are very
high here right now.
Barletta was referring to the
protests that have been going on
asking, Lou, where are the
jobs? He saidhe has triedtohold
town hall meetings, but hecklers
have made them so disruptive
that he cant get his message out.
What other elected officials
are having town hall meetings?
Barletta asked. How can you
blame someone who has been in
office for eight months why no
jobs are coming here? I hope
these protesters are asking all
elected officials, especially those
that have been in office for years,
what they are doing to bring jobs
here.
Barletta said he has tried to be
accommodating to the groups
that have been staging protests.
He said he met Monday morning
with Roxanne Pauline, an orga-
nizer with the Northeast Penn-
sylvania Area Labor Federation.
On national policy, Barletta
said he wants to see a balanced
budget amendment passed by
Congress.
Taxpayers have to balance
their budgets, and Congress
should do the same, Barletta
said. I dont know why that
makes everyone in Washington
so nervous.
Budgeting approach
Barletta wouldnt talk about
specific cuts. But he did say he
would use the zero-based bud-
geting approach start at zero
and budget from there for specif-
ic programs.
If we cut discretionary spend-
ing, that would only take care of
half of what needs to be done,
Barletta said. We borrow $4 bil-
lion every day. It will take a seri-
ous effort to get us where we
should be.
Barletta said the entitlement
programs Social Security,
Medicare and Medicaid are
three of the drivers of our debt.
He said all three need to be res-
tructured.
What politician wants to do
that? Barletta asked. Politicians
dont want to go home and try to
explainthat totheir constituents.
Im not trying to end Medicare,
but if something isnt done soon,
Medicare will end on its own.
Barletta said the countrys fi-
nancial dilemma wasnt born
overnight. He said it has taken
decades for the situation to get to
its current state, andRepublicans
and Democrats share the blame.
I went on the House floor and
scolded both sides of the aisle,
Barletta said. I said we should
vote as Americans. I will vote my
conscience, not my party.
The 54-year-old freshman con-
gressman said the key to salvag-
ing Social Security is to get more
people working. He said the
more money paid into the ac-
count, the stronger it will be-
come.
Barletta supported the cut, cap
and balance plan that would cut
spending, cap the budget and
adopt a balanced budget amend-
ment. That plan was rejected by
the Democratic-controlled Sen-
ate.
We need a common sense ap-
proach in Washington, he said.
BARLETTA

Pennsylvania 11th Congressional
District Democratic candidate Bill
Vinsko responded to U.S. Rep. Lou
Barlettas confirmation that he will
seek a second term in Congress:
Northeast Pennsylvanians are
very concerned about jobs, the
economy, Social Security and
Medicare. We cannot blame Amer-
icas problems only on what the
public doesnt know, since what
the public does know is that the
extremist wing of the Republican
Party played games with our
credit rating, intentionally voted
on legislation that had no chance
of passing, voted against Medi-
care, and insisted upon voting
along party lines, without regard
for their home district. Our Con-
gressman has consistently voted
with them. My first priority is and
always will be what is good for the
people of the 11th Congressional
District. I believe that once you
take the oath of congressional
office, it means you represent and
have to listen to everyone, regard-
less of the format. I will be there
to listen to the people.

taxes for 2011and costs associat-
ed with the sale, according to
Northeast RevenueServiceLLC,
which has been operating the
county tax claim office since
May 2010.
Powell and his wife, Debra,
would have to pay the $6,199
owed for 2009 to keep the prop-
erty out of the sale.
However, theres less risk that
properties will be sold at upset
sales because liens attached to
properties are not forgiven, as
opposed to free-and-clear sales
in which liens are cleared and
bids typically start at several
hundred dollars.
The Powell property, for ex-
ample, carriesoutstandingmort-
gage debt of $381,294, according
to county records. The property
is also listed in the Oct. 7 sheriff
mortgage foreclosure sale.

one of them. When police ar-
rived, they found Barna walking
around on the sidewalk in front
of his building, bleeding fromthe
abdomen, leg, back and under-
arm area.
In an initial interview, Barna
told Officer Scott Rozitsky that
Johnson and another man came
to his door and asked him to
stash drugs in his apartment.
When he said no, Johnson began
stabbing him. When an ambu-
lance arrived, Barna stated he
was doing heroin (that day) and
had a couple beers. He was
transported to Geisinger Wyom-
ing Valley Medical Center in
Plains Township for treatment.
Rozitsky said Jeff Petry, a
neighbor of Barnas, said he
called911after Barna came to his
apartment, banged on the door
before kicking it in and told him
he had been stabbed. Petry told
Rozitsky he found a bloody knife
on his floor that didnt belong to
him.
Two days later, Wright Town-
ship police Sgt. Royce Engler
went to the hospital and inter-
viewed Barna, who told him he
buys heroin from Johnson and a
man named Terrell, also known
as Wax. He said Johnson called
him the night before he was
stabbed and told himthat he was
robbed of drugs and blamed him
for it and threatened him. Barna
said he told Johnson he could
look in his apartment and he
would not find any drugs.
Barna told Engler that John-
son called him the following day
and asked him to stash drugs for
him. Johnson and the other man
eventually knocked on his door,
he let them in and the two men
cornered him behind his apart-
ment door.
Barna told police that when
Johnson began stabbing him, he
pushed him off and the man
named Terrell tried to restrain
Johnson. Johnson then stabbed
Barna in the back and Barna fell
through Petrys front door before
Johnson and the other man fled.
Barna suffered a punctured
lung, a punctured bowel, a
grazedcolonanda stab woundto
the lower back.
Wright Township police Chief
Joseph Jacob said police are still
searching for the other man al-
legedly involvedinthe assault on

hammed, was reported to have
escaped rebel custody.
Gadhafis tanks and snipers
tookstrategic positions inseveral
Tripoli neighborhoods. Still, it
was uncertain if the mercurial
man who referred to himself as
Brother Leader and ruled the na-
tion for nearly 42 years could
muster a potent counterattack.
NATO indicated that it would
continue its airstrikes against the
Libyan leaders army. That poses
a highriskof civiliancasualties in
Tripoli, a dense urban landscape
with more than 1.6 million peo-
ple. But the pressing question for
rebel leaders and NATO com-
manders was Gadhafis where-
abouts. Unlike on previous days,
the Libyan leader released no
new audio broadcasts.
In comments to reporters, Seif
al-Islam said his father remained
in Tripoli.
We do not knowif he is inside
or outside Libya, Mustafa Abdul
Jalil, the headof the rebel govern-
ment, said during a news confer-
ence in the eastern city of Beng-
hazi, the insurgents de facto cap-
ital.
Underscoring the importance
of that question in a country em-
blazoned with Gadhafis image
and shaped by his personality,
one Tripoli resident said: We
cannot feel peace. We cannot feel
victory until we see Gadhafi cap-
tured.
East of Tripoli, rebels saidGad-
hafis forces were retreating from
Port Brega on the coastal high-
way toward Surt, Gadhafis birth-
place and tribal stronghold. Gad-
hafis forces reportedly fired a
Scud missile from near Surt on
Monday; the target was unclear.
The rebels received support
from governments around the
world, including Egypt, which is
struggling to build a democracy
after its revolution overthrew
President Hosni Mubarak in Feb-
ruary. The United Nations said it
was organizing a meeting with
the Arab League and African
Union to help Libya emerge from
Gadhafis legacy.
Nowis the time for all Libyans
tofocus onnational unityandrec-
onciliation, Ban Ki-Moon, secre-
tary-general of the U.N., toldjour-
nalists. This is a hopeful mo-
ment but also there are risks
ahead.
Italian Foreign Minister Fran-
co Frattini said officials of Italys
oil giant, Eni, had arrived in Li-
bya to try to determine when it
could restart its oil facilities. Be-
fore the uprising, Libya exported
about 1.6 million barrels of oil a
day, amassing about $50 billion a
year in revenues for a population
of only 6 million. But much of the
money never reached Gadhafis
fellowLibyans, who clamored for
schools, hospitals andother insti-
tutions.
Prime Minister David Cam-
eron of Britain, one of the main
participants inthe NorthAtlantic
Treaty Organization campaign
against Gadhafi, told reporters in
Londonthat his regime is falling
apart and is in full retreat.
The latest information is that
the vast majority of Tripoli is now
being controlled by free Libyan
forces, although fighting contin-
ues and some of it is extremely
fierce, he said.
Rebels in pickup trucks laden
with high-caliber guns roared in-
to Tripoli throughout Monday.
Insurgent leaders set up check-
points and secured buildings.
Representatives of the Transi-
tional National Council met with
Gadhafi loyalists to prevent
chaos from sweeping the capital.
The effort was part of a larger aim
to create unity among disparate
tribes and ethnicities whose dif-
ferences Gadhafi had manipulat-
ed for decades.
It remains to be seen, though,
whether Berbers in the west,
whose rebel forces reached the
capital first, will cooperate with
tribes from the east. Both sides
were united in defeating a dicta-
tor, but thosebonds will betested
in debates over the distribution
of Libyas oil wealthanda newna-
tional government.
The challenge for Libyans will
be to agree on transitional lead-
ers, but this wont be easy given
all the sects and tribes, said Am-
mar Ali Hassan, ananalyst inCai-
ro. Theproblemwill bereaching
a consensus.
Internal divisions widened
among insurgents in recent
months. They led to the assassi-
nation in July of Gen. Abdul Fa-
tah Younis, the rebels military
commander and former head of
security for Gadhafi. U.S. and Eu-
ropean officials have been meet-
ing with rebel leaders in Bengha-
zi in an attempt to instill demo-
cratic principles and avoid re-
criminationinthe country, which
is awash in guns.
No transition is ever smooth
or easy, Britains Cameron said.

People celebrate what they believe to be the approach of victory in the military conflict against
Gadhafis regime at the rebel-held town of Benghazi, Libya, early Tuesday.
WASHINGTON Through
months of military stalemate in
Libya it was an open secret
among NATO allies that coun-
tries inside and outside the alli-
ance were quietly but crucially
helping rebels gain their footing
against the much stronger
forces loyal to longtime dictator
Moammar Gadhafi.
Covert forces, private con-
tractors andU.S. intelligence as-
sets were thrown into the fight
in an undercover campaign op-
erating separately from the NA-
TOcommand structure. Target-
ed bombings methodically took
out Gadhafis key communica-
tions facilities and weapons
caches. And an increasing num-
ber of American hunter-killer
drones provided round-the-
clock surveillance as the rebels
advanced.
These largely unseen hands
helped to transform the ragtag
rebel army into the force storm-
ing Tripoli.
Diplomats acknowledge that
covert teams from France, Bri-
tain and some East European
states provided critical assist-
ance, without they contend
compromising NATOs man-
date fromthe United Nations to
restrict its operations to pro-
tecting civilians.
The aid included logisticians,
security advisers and forward
air controllers for the rebel ar-
my, as well as intelligence oper-
atives, damage assessment
analysts and other experts, ac-
cording to a diplomat based at
NATOs headquarters in Brus-
sels. The diplomat spoke on
condition of anonymity due to
the sensitivity of the issue.
The CIA and other U.S. intel-
ligence agencies have been
gathering information through-
out the conflict from contacts
theyd developed when they
were working closely with Gad-
hafis government on counter-
terrorismagainst al-Qaida-relat-
ed Islamic militant groups oper-
ating in Libya. This thawing of
relations between two longtime
adversaries, lasting only a few
years, paid unexpected divi-
dends later.
Foreign military advisers on
the ground were key to getting
real-time intelligence to the re-
bels, helping them accurately
concentrate their limited fire-
power on the enemy. One U.S.
official, speaking on condition
of anonymity to discuss intelli-
gence matters, said the Qatari

ish military advisers.

For just the second time all season,
the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees
got to experience what it was like to be
the visiting teamin their own stadium.
Due to Sunday evenings game in
Rochester being suspended in the top
of the third inning due to rain, the Yan-
kees and Red Wings continued the
game Monday night at PNC Field and
thenplayedthe regular scheduledafter

Jesus Montero exploded offensively
leading Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to two
wins against Rochester last night at
PNC Field. He was 5-for-9 on the night
with two home runs and seven RBI as
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre won the first
game 11-2 and the second 9-4.
When you go through the streak we
went through, when we didnt score a
lot of runs, a night like tonight definite-
ly helps. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre man-
ager Dave Miley said.
The Yankees jumped out to an early
lead in the first game. The scoreless
game resumed in the top of the third
inning with Ray Kruml on third base
and Chris Dickerson at the plate. Dick-
erson started the evening with an RBI
single right back up the middle. allow-
ing Kruml to score easily from third,
making it a 1-0 ball game.
Kevin Russo singled and Mike Lamb
drewa walk to load the bases for Jesus
Montero with two outs. Dickerson
then scored on a wild pitch and Monte-
ro made it hurt even worse hitting a
moon shot, which just snuck over the
wall in left centerfield, making it 5-0
ball game after 2 innings.
Rochester came within 5-2 on a two
run blast off the bat of Jason Repko.
The Yankee offense then exploded
again in the top of the fifth inning.
Montero got his fourth and fifth RBI of
the night with a two RBI double off the
left field wall. Jorge Vazquez then sin-
gled giving the Yankees runners on
first and second with one out.
I feel really good today. It was an
amazingday, Monterosaid. I wishev-

Brandon Laird then brought every-
one home by crushing a home run to

T
he first day of his high school
golf season went nothing like
last year for Brandon Matthews.
A double-bogey on the third hole had
him shaking his head in disbelief. A
shot to the far end of the green on the
fifth left him pounding the ground with
his iron .Then he flung it in absolute
disgust Monday, after his drive off the
eighth hole veered off the fairway and
into a row of trees.
Which only proves how quickly a
golf can change course.
Even on the defending state cham-
pion.
To be completely honest, I didnt
have fun today, Matthews said.
He was no longer the kid in the eye-
catching pants who captured the fancy
of the state finals crowd, along with the
PIAA crown last season. Just a per-
plexed senior trying to find his old
form at the beginning of a new high
school season.
Ive still got to play some golf,
Matthews said. And I didnt do that
today. Sometimes you just dont have
it. My swing was off all day.
It showed up in spurts.
The Pittston Area senior still had a
few flashes of brilliance by anyone
elses standards. Not his.
He shot a 4-over-par 40 at the Stone
Hedge Country Club, sharing medalist
honors with his Patriots teammate
Matt Caroll. Matthews followed his
ground pounding with an astonishing
36-foot putt for birdie on No. 5. And he
teed off the sixth hole with an approxi-
mate 340-yard drive.
But he became the best in the state
as a junior last season by demanding
the best of himself.
So when he landed in a sand trap off
the seventh hole, then three-putted to
finish the final two, the day was
doomed for him.
That was definitely the worst Ive
played in a couple months, Matthews
said. Maybe all year.
He said he was going straight to the
driving range and blast 150 golf balls
while trying to figure out what to do.
When you play all year and shoot
under par all the time and go out and
shoot a 40, its not fun, Matthews said.
Three-putting the last two holes, its
not fun. I dont think I hit one golf shot
like I wanted to all day.
Last season, Matthews pretty much
did what he wanted.
He lost just once the whole high
school season, and his success never
stopped even after he claimed the
PIAA gold medal.
Then everyone wanted a piece of the
golden boy.
When youre known, people are
going to ask, Matthews said.
So his summer schedule filled up
quickly.
Matthews played in the Pennsylvania
State Amateur Tournament, tried out
for the U.S. Amateur and U.S. Open.
He won the Philadelphia Junior Golf
Association Open, which earned him
an invite to the junior national tourna-
ment in Maryland.
He was all over the Eastern sea-
board, playing different events, Pitt-
ston Area coach Len Benfante said.
And hes playing local.
Maybe thats the problem.
Maybe Matthews is just playing too
much. Or expecting too much.
His expectations, at times, are prob-
ably unrealistic, Benfante said. He
expects to play well every single time
out, and thats not going to happen. I
think hes got to give himself a chance
and be a little more forgiving.
Because in a game not known for
mercy, even the best have to learn to
tolerate the worst.

Verlander (19-5) won his
seventh consecutive start,
giving up one run and three
hits in seven innings. The 19
wins match his career high, set
in 2009.
The Tigers took a 2-1 lead in
the second when Avila hit a
two-run shot off Jeff Niemann
(8-5). The All-Star catcher is 25
for 59 (.424) with five homers
and 14 RBIs this month.
Niemann, who was 7-0 in his
10 previous start, allowed four
runs and six hits over 7 1-3

(2-6) hit both Miguel Olivo and
Brendan Ryan with pitches to
start the ninth. Perez then
compounded his problems by
dropping a sacrifice bunt by
Trayvon Robinson, loading the
bases with no outs.
Ichiro Suzuki, who already
had three hits, struck out. But
Gutierrez, formerly of the
Indians, hit a fly to medium
center field and Olivo barely
beat Ezequiel Carreras one-
hop throw home.

MOOSIC Freddy Garcia made his return to
the bump last evening. However, it was not with
the New York Yankees. Instead, he made a rehab
appearance with the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yan-
kees.
Garcia was sent to Scranton/Wilkes-Barre to
prove to the Yankee organization he is healthy
enough to pitch for New York. The right-hander
sliced his finger in a kitchen accident at his
home.
Of course, of course its disappointing. When
I did it, I was thinking (I wouldnt miss a start),
but I wasnt able to throw the splitter. Thats my
pitch, and I have to be 100 percent.
He got his splitter back and he threw it around
a dozen times in Mondays start on the bump.
In the beginning, it was a little slow, but by
the end I threw some pretty good ones, Garcia
said of his splitter. Thats what I need.
Garcia was happy to get his work in down here
and feels he is ready to rejoin the Yankees.
I was ready yesterday, Garcia said. They
want to make sure Im 100 percent, and my fin-
gers good. I told them whatevers better for the
team, thats what Ill do.
When Garcia finally does rejoin the Yankees,
they will once again have six starting pitchers.
They will more than likely not continue to use
six pitchers, which leaves the Yankees with a
decision to make on who stays in the rotation.
Its not my business to say anything, Garcia
said. Ive been doing my job all year, so I prob-
ably deserve to be in the rotation, so I dont have
any problem. So, whatever they decide.
Its not going to be a problem this week,
Garcia said of the potential rotation problems.
But I dont know what the want to do after we
leave Baltimore, so well see what happens.
Garcia got to throw to the top catching pros-
pect in the Yankee organization, Jesus Montero.
He raved about his offense.
Hes got power, I know that. When you hit to
right-center that high, you have to have power,
Garcia said. Hes a pretty good hitter, and hes a
pretty good receiver, too.
Garcia said many times he was ready to rejoin
the team and his finger is healed.
It was fine, no problems. Im ready for Sat-
urday, Garcia said.
Garcia was credited with the win and pitched
four innings in relief of Adam Warren. He al-
lowed two runs on eight hits, while walking one
batter and striking out none. He threw 59 pitch-
es, 42 of which were strikes.

Garcia gets
win in rehab
with Yanks
By JOSH HORTON
For The Times Leader
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. Pa-
trick Gretsch got off to a fast start in the
inaugural USA Pro Cycling Challenge,
finishing almost two seconds ahead of
American Christian Vande Velde to win
the opening prologue.
The 24-year-old Gretsch, a German
timetrial specialist whorides for theCal-
ifornia- basedHTC-Highroadteam, com-
pleted the 5.2-mile course in 8 minutes,
and 27.5 seconds. He will wear the race
leaders jersey Tuesday in the 99.3-mile
Salida to Mt. Crested Butte stage 1 road
race.
I put all of my focus intothe TT(time
trial), saidGretsch, whoearlier this sea-
son won the prologue of the Ster ZLM
Toer, a stage race in the Netherlands. I
aminreallygoodshapenow. Thealtitude
wasdifficult, but I wasbest withit today.
Gretsch, who last week finished third
in the stage 3 individual time trial at the
Tour of Utah, was the 41st rider on the
course. Withthe exceptionof the final 10
riders who beganwithtwo-minute inter-
vals, the majority of the field began in
one-minute intervals.
We trained on the course a lot,
Gretsch said of the technical prologue
that provided his second career pro win.
I rodeit maybe10times inpractice, but I
tookthebigcorner afewmiles slower to-
day, but it was still a strong ride.
The 35-year-old Vande Velde, of Lem-
ont, Ill., atwo-timeTour deFrancetop-10
finisher who competes for Colorado-
based Garmin-Cervelo, trailed Gretsch
by 1.71 seconds in the field of 130 riders
from17 teams.
Brent Bookwalter (BMC Racing
Team), 27, of Albuquerque, N.M., was
third, trailingthewinnerby3.81seconds.
Robert Forster (UnitedHealthcare) was
next, followed by German countryman
Jens Voigt (LeopardTrek) infifth.
My goal was not to end my season to-
day, said Vande Velde, who placed 17th
overall last month in the Tour de France
in which his squad won the team time
trial andtheteamtitle. Itwasascarycor-
ner andit was very fast.
Vande Velde, who placed fourth at the
Tour of California, is aleadingcontender
for the overall title.
The course featured a few sharp cor-
ners andonesteepdownhill inwhichrid-
ers exceeded50 mph.
I was surprised today, said Vande
Velde, the 11th starter on the course. It
puts me in good position, but I was sur-
prised to be on the podium. I was think-
ing for a better position in the Vail time
trial (stage 3).
Reigning Tour de France titlist Cadel
Evans (BMC) of Australia placed ninth,
about eight seconds behindthe winner.
The seven-day race continues through
Sundays stage 6, a 70.9-mile road race
fromGoldento Denver.

The Associated Press
youngmanwhohadhisproday48
hours ago and didnt know he
would be in the draft until Thurs-
day morning and wasnt able to
meet with any decision makers.
Pryor immediately headed to
the Bay Area after being drafted
andRosenhaussaidhehopedtofi-
nalize a contract as soon as possi-
ble to get Pryor on the practice
field. Rosenhaushasalreadynego-
tiated a third-round deal with the
Raiders this summer with rookie
cornerback DeMarcus Van Dyke.
Were optimistic this will be a
smoothnegotiation, hesaid. We
enjoy working with the Raiders
and hes very excited.
Pryorwill beabletopracticeim-
mediately after signing and play
in the remaining two exhibition
games.
But he will not be eligible to
practice with or play for Oakland
during the regular season until
the teams sixth game.
When he was allowed to enter
Mondays draft, he was handed a
five-gamesuspensionbyCommis-
sioner Roger Goodell the same
number of games he would have
sat out had he returned to Ohio
State. Pryor has said he will not
appeal the suspension.
Pryor gave up his final season
withtheBuckeyes after aninvesti-
gation into the teams memorabi-
lia-for-cash scandal that cost
coach JimTressel his job.
His selection by the Raiders
hardly is surprising. Oakland of-
ten makes bold moves in the draft
because owner Al Davis covets
size and speed. Pryor ran a 4.36 in
the 40 during his workout for 17
NFL teams Saturday. At 6-foot-5
and 232 pounds, he is similar in
height to JaMarcus Russell, the
LSU quarterback chosen No. 1
overall by the Raiders in the 2007
draft.
But Pryor ismuchmoremobile.
As a junior, Pryor hadhis best sea-
son statistically, throwing for
2,772 yards and 27 touchdowns
with 11 interceptions. He also ran
for 754 yards and four scores
while helping the Buckeyes win
the Sugar Bowl.
Weall knowhowAl Davis likes
big players who can run and Ter-
relle brings a dimension of size
and speed thats unique to the
quarterbackposition, Rosenhaus
said. The Raiders are a good fit
for him because they have had an
unsettled quarterback situation
for a number of years and have
worked in a number of different
players. Any young quarterback
would like the opportunity to go
there and compete and be the
guy.
Oaklands starting quarterback
is Jason Campbell, nowin his sec-
ond season with the Raiders after
being acquired from Washington,
where he spent five seasons.
Campbell is in the last year of his
contract, as arebackups KyleBoll-
er and Trent Edwards.
The Raiders considered draft-
ingaquarterbacktogroomfor the
future inApril but didnot findthe
right fit. Now they have Pryor to
fill that role.
Oaklandisnowwithout picksin
the second, third and fourth
rounds next year. The Raiders
traded the 2012 second-round
pick along with a 2011 seventh-
round selection for third- and
fourth-round picks this past draft
to take offensive lineman Joe
Barksdale and running back Tai-
wanJones. Theysent their fourth-
round pick a year ago to the Red-
skins for Campbell.
Oakland could recoup some
picks as compensation for losing
Nnamdi Asomugha, Zach Miller
and Robert Gallery as free agents.
No other players were chosen.
Also eligible for the draft were
former Georgia running back Ca-
lebKing, former NorthernIllinois
safety Tracy Wilson, former West-
ern Carolina cornerback Torez
Jones, former Lindenwood Uni-
versity defensive end Keenan
Mace, and former North Carolina
defensive end Mike McAdoo.

day. However, this time the ball
got out ina hurryandthe Yankee
lead swelled to 11-2.
The Red Wings failed to get
any closer and the Yankees
emerged victorious by a score of
11-2.
Freddy Garcia earned the win
in relief in game one for the Yan-
kees. He went four innings al-
lowing two runs on eight hits.
He walked one and didnt strike-
out any in his MLB Rehab as-
signment with Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre.
Andrew Brackman earned his
first save of the season. He was
credited with the save, because
he pitched three innings in the
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre win.
In the nightcap, the Yankees
jumped out to an early 1-0 lead
whenDickersonhomeredoff the
scoreboard in left to lead off the
game.
Rochester came right back to
tie the game at 1-1 on a Ray
Chang sacrifice fly to center-
field.
The Red Wings then gained
the lead in the top of the fourth
on a Chang RBI single to center-
field. Chang then scored on an
RBI double to center field off the
bat of Rene Rivera making it a
3-1 ball game.
However, the Yankees offense
respondedina bigway witha six
run fourth inning. Luis Nunez
started the offensive frenzy with
a twoRBI single. Dickersonthen
hit a sacrifice fly giving the Yan-
kees a 4-3 lead in the ball game.
However, they werent done yet
in the fourth.
Kevin Russo laced a triple to
right center allowing P.J. Pilit-
tere to score all the way from

Russo and the Yankees lead was
7-3 after four innings.
The Yankees added another
run when Parraz scored on a
ground ball to second that was
mishandled by Rochester sec-
ond baseman Brian Dinkelman
and the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
lead was 8-3.
Rochester cut the lead in half
when Rivera doubled in Aaron
Bates in the top of the sixth.
However, 8-4 was as close as the
Red Wings got in nights second
game.
Laird gave the Yankees an in-
surance run in the bottomof the
sixth with his second home run
of the evening. This time it was a
blast to right field and the Yan-
kee lead was 9-4.
Manny Banuelos picked up
his first Triple-A win of the sea-
son. He went five innings allow-
ing three runs on six hits. He
struck out three and walked
three inhis fifthstart withScran-

with a 3.86 ERA.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre im-
proved to 65-63 after winning
both games last night. Roches-
ter fell to 48-82.
It was a good win, because I
feel everyone contributed in
their own way, Miley said.
The Yankees and Red Wings
continue their series at PNC
Fieldtoday. DellinBetances (0-1,

ple-Astart tonight for Scranton/

CORAL GABLES, Fla. The
probe into Miami athletics is
growing, with the university
looking into the eligibility of 15
athletes who may have accepted
improper benefits from a rogue
booster.
Miami President Donna Sha-
lala did not reveal any names of
the players under investigation
as she released a video state-
ment Monday. The booster, con-
victed Ponzi scheme architect
Nevin Shapiro, told Yahoo
Sports for an article published
last week that 12 current foot-
ball players and one mens bas-
ketball player got money, gifts
and other items from him.
We cannot let the actions of
some define the many, Shalala
said.
The football players who
were named by Shapiro in inter-
views with Yahoo Sports are Ja-
cory Harris, Vaughn Tele-
maque, Ray Ray Armstrong,
Travis Benjamin, Aldarius John-
son, Marcus Forston, Olivier
Vernon, Marcus Robinson, Ade-
wale Ojomo, Dyron Dye, JoJo
Nicholas and Sean Spence. Sha-
piro also alleged to Yahoo
Sports that he paid $10,000 to
ensure that basketball player
DeQuan Jones signed with the
Hurricanes.
Most, if not all, the current
football players Shapiro named
would likely be major contrib-
utors if they get to take the field.
Citing the ongoing investiga-
tion, school officials would not
say Monday if any of those play-
ers have been cleared to play, or
who the additional names link-
ed to the investigation are.
The Miami athletic compli-
ance staff, in a joint effort with
the NCAA, is nowbeginning the
process of reviewing the eligibil-
ity of 15 current student-ath-
letes, Shalala said. With the
season fast approaching I know
our players, coaches and fans
are eager to know the results.
The process, however, must be
deliberate and thorough to en-
sure its integrity.
The university wants to de-
cide the status of the football
players by the end of this week.
Football coach Al Golden is
planning to release a depth
chart in the coming days for the
Sept. 5 opener at Maryland, a
process that would become very
difficult if players like Harris,
Spence, Forston, Telemaque,
Armstrong and Benjamin
some of the teams on-field lead-
ers are ineligible.
We will move forward,
Golden said Saturday.
If Miami uses any player later
deemed ineligible by the NCAA,
then the Hurricanes run the risk
of having to retroactively vacate
games. If the Hurricanes sit the
players implicated in the scan-
dal, then their chances of win-
ning now figure to take a seri-
ous hit.
Miamis football team held a
closed scrimmage Monday,
which Golden said would be the
final audition of sorts for players
trying to make the 60-person
travel roster to Maryland.
Golden and other members of
the football program will be un-
available for comment until
Thursday, school officials said.
For much of the past few
days, Shalala has tried to keep
some sense of normalcy.
Miamis freshman class ar-
rived on campus last week, and
Shalala mingled with many of
them at a womens soccer game
Friday night. On Sunday, she
hosted a picnic at her home for
new students, although she also
met with senior staff through-
out the weekend about the sta-
tus of the investigation. Some
football players popped into an-
other womens soccer game
Sunday night, getting words of
encouragement from some
longtime Miami supporters.
The past eight days have
been difficult. ... However, Im
heartened by the kind of dis-
plays of support in recent days,
phone calls, text messages,
emails and letters from so many
of you, Shalala said. When our
values are called into question,
as they have been this past
week, we have only one option:
Do what is right and have the
confidence in tomorrow. We
will not let others define us.

MADRID Devastated and
without appetite for life, Rafael
Nadal contemplated a move into
professional golf after a career-
threatening injury sidelined him,
the 10-time Grand Slam cham-
pion writes in his autobiography.
The Spanish player writes in
Rafa that doctors discovered a
rare foot injury in 2005 that had
the potential to sideline him for
good, promptingthoughts of a fu-
ture in golf.
In the book, provided to The
Associated Press and to be re-
leased in the United States on
Tuesday, the 25-year-old Nadal
describes his toughest on-court
battles with Roger Federer at the
2008 Wimbledon final and subse-
quent Australian Open.
But his off-court problems play
a large part in the former top-
ranked players career. The men-
tal toll of his parents separation
hindered his recovery from inju-
ries in 2009, when pride led him
to try to defend his French Open
title despite his physical prob-
lems.
Still, his lowest point seems to
have been when doctors discov-
eredacongenital boneproblemin
the bridge of his left foot soon af-
ter a five-set victory over Ivan
Ljubicic in Madrid on his tough-
est indoor surface.
Nadal saidthat joy was soonre-
placed by a state of deepest
gloom.
(The) diagnosis had initially
been like a shot to the head, Na-
dal writes. The bone still hurts
me. It remainsundercontrol, just,
but wecannever dropour guard.
Nadal wept then, just as he did
after losing the 2007 Wimbledon
final toFederer. But hedidnot cry
on the flight from Melbourne in
2009 when his father, Sebastian,
revealed to the recently crowned
Australian Open champion that
his parents had separated.
My attitude was bad. I was de-
pressed, lacking in enthusiasm.
(My team) knew something had
to give, writes Nadal, with the
weight of those problems leading
tohis only defeat insevenappear-
ances at Roland Garros and his
subsequent withdrawal from
Wimbledon. My knees were the
immediate reason, but I knewthe
root cause was my state of mind.
Mental toughness instilled
bycoachanduncleToni isakey
theme, especially in his ability to
bounce back, including trying for
his first victory in three Wimble-
don finals against Federer.
Nadal was gripped with fear.
Thewarrior figurehedcultivated
hadlost hiscourage after failing
toclinchvictoryonseveral match
point opportunities against Fe-
derer. Nadal creditsmomentslike
these for improving his mental
stamina, withonechapter eventi-
tled Fear of Winning.
What I battlehardest todoina
tennis matchis toquiet thevoices
inmyhead, toshuteverythingout
of my mind... shoulda thought of
victory suggest itself, crush it,
Nadal writes onthe openingpage
beforelater adding: I thinkI have
the capacity to accept difficulties
andovercomethemthat issuperi-
or to many of my rivals.
Tonis cruel to be kind coach-
ing strategy was key in develop-
inghimintothetennis machine
he is. He compares his uncle to a
figure descended from 16th-cen-
tury conquistador HernanCortes
with a Spartan philosophy of life
uncommon to his home island of
Mallorca.
Therewas nolet upfromToni.
No mercy, the second-ranked
player writes. I look back at that
teenage Rafael and I am proud of
him. He set a benchmark of endu-
rance that has servedme as anex-
ample and as a reminder ... if you
wantsomethingbadlyenough, no
sacrifice is too great.
Nadal offers interestinginsight
into his regimen, and his family
offers some surprising details
about the Manacor native, in the
250-page memoir, which was
written by John Carlin, who also
wrotethebookthat director Clint
EastwoodturnedintothefilmIn-
victus.

N F L
ARLINGTON, Texas Felix
Jones is doing it again, getting in-
to open space and shimmying his
way into wider, more open
spaces.
Throughtwopreseasongames,
Jones is averaging8.6yards every
time he touches the ball. Injust11
tries, hes already had runs of 22,
18and11yards, plusanotherburst
of 16 yards on a screen.
Having anointed him as their
featured running back this sea-
son, the Dallas Cowboys are
thrilled to see it.
They also knowthis is August,
and his body is as fresh as its go-
ing to be.
What they really need to see is
whether he can do it in the fourth
quarter, after having already han-
dledthe ball about 20times. And,
if so, whether he can do it in De-
cember, after several months of
carrying and catching the ball 20
times a game.
Only time will tell, and the
Cowboysarefinallycommittedto
finding out whether he can be as
productive as the guys Dallas by-
passed to draft him in the first
round in 2008 a collection of
1,000-yard rushers that includes
Tennessees Chris Johnson and
Pittsburghs Rashard Menden-
hall.
Ive never seen him more ex-
plosive or quicker than he has
been in this camp, quarterback
TonyRomosaid. Hehas alsotak-
en it up a notch with his under-
standing of the game. He has had
one of the better camps here, and
I amexcited about the upcoming
season for him.
Because of his great speed and
moves, Jones has been stamped
handle with care. The percep-
tionstemsfrombeingthechange-
of-pace backup to Darren McFad-
den at Arkansas, then to Marion
Barberfromthetimehearrivedin
Dallas.
Thethinkingalsohas beenthat
the less hes hit, the more effec-
tive hell be. Hamstring, knee and
ankle injuries have slowed him
over the years.
Last year, Jones tried to coun-
ter that by showing up to camp
weighing about 10 pounds more.
It robbed him of some of the
speedandelusiveness that arehis
biggest assets, andhewasapretty
ordinary player much of the sea-
son.
He got a chance to break out of
it latelast season, after JasonGar-
rett was promoted fromoffensive
coordinator toheadcoach. Jones
role increased and so did his pro-
duction.
He had a career day in a win
against Indianapolis not in
yards, but in workload, handling
22 carries and three receptions.
Over the final three games, he ran
for at least 70 yards each time,
producing a total of 228. Keep
that up over a full season and it
would be 1,216 yards. Dallas has
had only a single1,000-yard rush-
er since Emmitt Smith.
Jonescertainlyhasthetalent to
do it, and now hell have the op-
portunity. Its all about staying
healthy and proving durable,
which Jones believe he spent the
lockout preparing to do.
It was a great offseason,
Jones said. Definitely during
training camp you are learning
things and keeping yourself in
shape. I spent time in the weight
roomandstayedontopof things.
He looked good in the presea-
son opener against Denver. He
built onthat Sundaynight against
a San Diego defense that was
sixth-best against therunlast sea-
son.
Early in the second quarter,
with Dallas down 10-0, Jones
danced to the left side of the line,
zipped up the field, avoided a
tackle and ran toward the side-
line, stiff-arming a defender for
the final bit of a 22-yard gain.

ASHBURN, Va. Rex vs.
Becks will go down to the wire.
Washington Redskins coach
Mike Shanahan said Monday he
wont announce a starting quar-
terback for the regular season
until right before the Sept. 11
opener against the NewYork
Giants.
That means two more weeks
of suspense as Rex Grossman
and John Beck compete the No.
1job. Even after he makes the
decision, Shanahan isnt going
to let the world knowbecause
he wants to keep the Giants
guessing.
Probably have the teamget
ready for both quarterbacks,
he said.
Grossman started the first
preseason game, Beck the sec-
ond. Both played well against
good defenses.
Weve got two guys that we
believe in, two guys that are
very close right now, Shana-
han said. Id feel very comfort-
able going into our first game
with either quarterback. Well
have to make one of those
tough decisions, and we wont
make it til the end.
The third game was the sub-
ject of an entertaining father-
son disconnect after Mondays
practice. First, offensive coor-
dinator Kyle Shanahan was
asked if he knows who will start
Thursday against the Baltimore
Ravens.
Yeah, I do, Kyle Shanahan
said. But Imnot going to let
you know.
Moments later, Mike Shana-
han was asked to spill the beans
and name Thursdays starter.
Imnot even sure right now.
We havent even talked about
it, the head coach said. I
couldnt tell you. We havent
made a decision.
Told that his son said the
decision had been made, Mike
Shanahan replied: Well, he
hasnt told me about it then.
Regardless of which one
starts, Kyle Shanahan said both
quarterbacks will play with the
starters in the game considered
the dress rehearsal for the regu-
lar season.
Notes: S LaRon Landry
(hamstring), TEChris Cooley
(knee), LBEdgar Jones (con-
cussion), WRBrandon Banks
(knee), WRMalcolmKelly
(foot) and RBRyan Torain
(hand) are among those who
wont play Thursday. ... RT
Jammal Brown was scheduled
for X-rays on the ring finger of
his right hand, but hes expect-
ed to play. ... RBJames Davis,
who abruptly left training camp
a week ago, was released from
the reserve/left squad list. ...
Washington Capitals coach
Bruce Boudreau was a special
guest at practice Monday, at the
invitation of special teams
coach Danny Smith. I thought
maybe I could pick up some-
thing and see if it could work
with us, Boudreau said.
TITANS
NASHVILLE, Tenn. Ti-
tans wide receiver Kenny Britt
will meet Tuesday with NFL
Commissioner Roger Goodell
to discuss his arrests during the
lockout.
Britt says he is praying that
nothing happens as far as dis-
cipline once he meets with
Goodell. Britt was arrested
twice in NewJersey and surren-
dered himself on two arrest
warrants in Tennessee for giv-
ing inaccurate information on
drivers license applications.
The first-round draft pick out
of Rutgers in 2009 has had
seven incidents with police
since being drafted. Right guard
Jake Scott, the Titans player
representative, says he antici-
pates a legal fight if Britt is
suspended or fined for anything
that happened during the lock-
out because players received
letters confirming they were
not part of the team. Scott says
Goodell probably is right to
remind Britt hes watching him.
BROWNS
Aperson with knowledge of
the negotiations says the Cleve-
land Browns have reached
agreement with Pro Bowl offen-
sive tackle Joe Thomas on a
long-termcontract extension.
The person spoke to The
Associated Press on Monday on
condition of anonymity because
the deal has not yet been
signed. The Browns did not
return a phone call.
Thomas was entering the
final year of the rookie contract
he signed after being taken with
the No. 3 overall selection in the
2007 draft.
Thomas has made the Pro
Bowl in each of his four seasons
and is regarded as one of the
NFLs best left tackles.
Last week, Thomas said he
was excited about the direction
the Browns were headed under
first-year coach Pat Shurmur.
FALCONS
FLOWERYBRANCH, Ga.
John Abrahamhas a pretty
good idea of one reason why the
Atlanta Falcons have found
success since Mike Smith was
hired as head coach.
Its the Over-30 Club of
veterans, such as the four-time
Pro Bowl defensive end, who
have an open dialogue with
Smith.
Abrahamsays because of this
communication, theres no
dictatorship for the Falcons,
which are 33-13 under Smiths
tenure and have earned two
playoff spots and the NFC
South title in the last three
years.
He says Smith, whose Fal-
cons (0-2) travel for a preseason
game Saturday at Pittsburgh
(1-1), calls often on his over-30
veterans to discuss a wide range
of topics. Center Todd McClure
says Smith gets messages out to
the Over-30 Club so they can
tell teammates in their own
way.
PATRIOTS
FOXBOROUGH, Mass.
Vince Wilfork says he doesnt
want to be a distraction to his
Patriots teammates after a
report that he was paid $50,000
while at the University of Mia-

NEWYORKAfter watching
Plaxico Burress spectacular de-
but, Santonio Holmes thought
about how dangerous the New
York Jets passing offense can be.
Sodominant, he thinks, that he
almost feels sorry for the Jets op-
ponents.
Oh, Holmes said, its going
to be a long season for whatever
defense comes out to play us.
Thats because teams are going
tohave todeal withcoveringBur-
ress, Holmes and Derrick Mason
not to mention rookie wide re-
ceiver Jeremy Kerley, tight end
Dustin Keller and LaDainian
Tomlinson coming out of the
backfield.
I think the skys the limit for
this group, quarterback Mark
Sanchez said. I know theyll go
as Ill go, and its a matter of me
getting completions andbeing ef-
ficient, getting the ball on them
After a three-catch perform-
ance, including a terrific touch-
down grab in the Jets 27-7 pre-
season win over Cincinnati on
Sunday night, Burress presence
clearly makes NewYorks offense
more formidable. He gives San-
chez a tall hes 6-foot-5 and
sure-handed red-zone threat who
has made plenty of big catches
throughout his career.
Its a nice bit of insurance
there, having a big player like
that, and a big body, somebody
who knows how to use his body,
and get completions to a guy like
that, Sanchez said. Hes a great
target. I think hes just a great
complement for Santonio and
Dustin and Derrick. We get all
them rolling at the same time,
then well be pretty efficient, I
think.
Mason missed the game with a
sore knee, but Rex Ryan said he
wouldve played if it had been a
regular-season game. Mason will
fill the slot role that Jerricho
Cotchery once did, while Burress
replaces Braylon Edwards. Ma-
son and Burress have been care-
ful to not disrespect the guys
theyve replaced, but others have
said they think the new guys
might be upgrades.
Its my job to make it work,
Sanchez said.
If there was a concern, it was
the Jets inefficiency on third
down, with the starting offense
going2for 8inthe first half. They
also managed just 16 yards rush-
ing, but starting running back
Shonn Greene missed the game
while recovering from a skin in-
fection on his right foot.
It was only one game, and in
preseason at that, but Burress
proved he is healthy and motiva-
ted and still a solid receiver,
even if hes a bit rusty after such a
long layoff. Burress had seven
balls thrown his way, and he
made a few expected mistakes.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Den-
ver Broncos coach John Fox has
seen enough to name Kyle Orton
his starting quarterback.
What he hasnt determined is
whos No. 2.
Fox said TimTebowand Brady
Quinn have two more preseason
games to win the job as Ortons
primary backup.
Because the leagues newrules
dont mandate teams designate
their quarterback rotation on
gamedayanymore, thewinner of
that QB competition might re-
maina mystery, however, barring
an injury to Orton.
The Broncos began training
camp trying to trade Orton but
when no teams made an offer,
they opened the competition and
Orton quickly showed he was the
best of the bunch.
Hes gotten almost all the work
with the starters.
Well, weve talked to the quar-
terbacks, in particular Kyle, Fox
said after practice Monday.
Were going to name him the
starter for the opener against the
Raiders (on Sept. 12). Weve not
really reached a conclusion on 2
or 3 yet, and wont, probably, un-
til after the preseason games.
Ortons starting status hasnt
reallybeenindoubt sincethefirst
day of training camp, when he
showedthe gulf betweenhimand
the others was still enormous.
Hes played very well. He has
great command of the offense, I
think he has the most experience
in this offense, and I think thats
been evident, Fox said.
Tebow, who started the final
three games last season and
thought hed be coming into
camp as the incumbent, might
slip to the No. 3 job as he contin-
ues tostruggle withaccuracy and
mechanics while Quinn shows
vast improvement from last year,
when former coach Josh McDa-
niels didnt play himat all during
the regular season.
Heres how the QB competi-
tion breaks down:
Orton has a 110.0 passer rat-
ing in the preseason. He drove
Denver to two touchdowns in
three drives Saturday night and
has completed12 of 19 passes for
172 yards and a touchdown with
no interceptions.
Quinn has a 95.1 QB rating.
Hes completed 18 of 30 passes
for 250 yards, two TDs and an in-
terception against Buffalo that
looked like it hit the ground and
shouldhave beenruledanincom-
pletion.
Orton is
winner of
Broncos
battle
Tebow and Quinn are left to
contend for the job as backup
to veteran signal caller.

JUPITER, Fla. Tiger Woods
is thinking about adding another
PGA Tour event to his schedule.
Woods failed to qualify for the
FedEx Cupplayoffs that start this
week in New Jersey for the top
125 players in the standings,
meaning he is ineligible for tour
events until October. He said on
his website Monday that he
might add a tournament in the
Fall Series.
Right now, Im looking at my
options, Woods said.
The Fall Series begins in Las
Vegas on Sept. 29. It is followed
by the Frys.com Open in San
Martin, Calif., before moving to
the East Coast for the final two
weeks the McGladrey Classic
in St. Simons Island, Ga., and
concluding with the tournament
at Disney on Oct. 20-23.
Woods won Las Vegas for his
first PGATour victoryin1996. He
also won Disney that year.
He alsosaidhe wants tobe part
of the Presidents Cup team in
Australia the week before
Thanksgiving, although Woods
will to have to rely on being one
of two captains picks.
Ive had some conversations
with U.S. captain Fred Couples,
andwell see howit goes, Woods
said. Of course, I want to be on
the team. Its always fun to play
for your country, and we did pret-
ty well two years ago in San Fran-
cisco. Imjust going to keep prac-
ticing and try to get better. Its
Freddies call, and he can make
any choice he wants.
Woods is to play Aug. 31 in up-
state NewYork, a one-day exhibi-
tion to support the charity of
longtime friend Notah Begay.
Still to be decided is a full-time
caddie. Woods used childhood
friend Bryon Bell at the Bridge-
stone Invitational and the PGA
Championship, where he missed
the cut for only the thirdtime ina
major.
I havent decided on a new
caddie yet, but am definitely
thinking about it a lot, Woods
said. Theres a fewguys Imlook-
ing at, but it all depends on tim-
ing. At this point, Imin no hurry
to make a decision.
He said the two things he is
looking for in a caddie are experi-
ence and a person Ill have fun
with.

Tiger may play another tour event
Next months Las Vegas
Tournament appears to be
Woods most likely option.

Heinz earnings
The food maker has been making
more of its revenue and profit in
emerging markets. When it
releases its fiscal first-quarter
earnings today, investors will
want to see what its gains are
overseas, and also how the
slower U.S. economy has
affected its business. And,
whether it plans more staff cuts.
When it released its fourth-
quarter results, Heinz said it
would cut 1,000 jobs around the
world. It had 37,000 workers then.
Stagnant housing market
The housing markets inability to
pick up is one of the reasons
stocks have fallen this month.
Investors havent been looking
for a big improvement they just
want some signs that people are
starting to buy. Todays report on
new home sales from the Com-
merce Department isnt expected
to help. Economists forecast a
minor rise in the number of
homes sold in July. If theyre
right, sales will still be below
where they were back in April. Source: The Commerce Department

The Richmond Fed on manufacturing
Reports on manufacturing from the regional Federal Reserve
banks are becoming more important because national
numbers have showed that factories are producing less. That
has been distressing for investors because manufacturing
helped lead the
recovery from the
recession. The report
from the Philadelphia
Fed on Thursday
contributed to a
419-point plunge in the
Dow. So todays report
from the Richmond Fed
will get a close reading.

Shares eke out small gains
It was another day of big swings in
the Dow Jones industrial average, but
at least Monday ended with a modest
gain.
The Dow soared 200 points in the
morning, an encouraging start after
four weeks of losses. By noon that
gain shriveled to just 2 points, then
came a rise of another 100 in the
afternoon.
Bank stocks, which have been clob-
bered over worries about Europes
debt crisis, took another fall. JPMor-
gan Chase & Co. dropped 2.7 percent.
Bank of America lost 7.9 percent, the
biggest drop among the 30 Dow com-
panies.
Gold rose 2 percent to $1,892 and
has gained 16 percent in August.
Late mortgages on rise
The percentage of homeowners
who have missed at least one mort-
gage payment has risen for the second
straight quarter, the Mortgage Bank-
ers Association says.
Officials at the trade group ex-
pressed concern that the sluggish
economy may be creating another
group of distressed borrowers.
The second-quarter delinquency
rate for loans on one- to four-unit
residential properties increased to
8.44 percent of all U.S. mortgages as
of June 30, up from 8.32 percent on
March 31 and 8.25 percent on Dec 31.
In a normal market, the percentage
of delinquent borrowers is about 1.1
percent, according to the trade group.
United plans upgrades
United Airlines plans to invest more
than $500 million to improve seating
on its planes and to create the same
look and feel across its fleet. United
and Continental merged last year and
this is just one part of the two compa-
nies integration.
The airline will be adding flat-bed
seats to first and business class cabins
on long-haul aircraft, increasing over-
head bin space on some jets and add-
ing Wi-Fi to other planes.
Former Continental planes will get
Economy Plus seating a coach
section with more legroom.
3M settles age suit
Technology giant 3M has agreed to
pay a total of $3 million to about 290
former employees who accused the
company of age discrimination, the
U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity
Commission said Monday.
The EEOC sued 3M on behalf of a
class of former employees who said
the company laid off hundreds of
workers over the age of 45 from July
1, 2003, to Dec. 31, 2006. The lawsuit
alleged 3M terminated many highly
paid older employees and directed
leadership training to younger work-
ers.
Market KOs new IPOs
The stock markets wild daily
swings this month have knocked out
the market for initial public offerings.
So far in August, companies have
pulled deals at a pace not seen since
December 2008, and only four compa-
nies have gone public.
Data collector Dealogic says that 17
deals have been canceled, whether
postponed indefinitely or withdrawn
completely.

EARBORN, Mich. A chance
meeting in an airport lobby be-
tween the top executives of Ford
Motor Co. and Toyota Motor Corp. has
evolved into a deal between the auto gi-
antstojointlydevelopagas-electrichybrid
engine for pickup trucks and sport utility
vehicles.
The companies signed the agreement
Monday to share development costs, say-
ing they want to make the technology
more affordable for customers andbring it
to market faster. Many details have yet to
be workedout, but bothsaidtheir vehicles
wouldremainuniqueevenif theysharethe
same drive systems.
The deal will helpbothcompanies meet
more stringent fuel economy and pollu-
tion standards in the U.S. and elsewhere,
whileat thesametimekeepinglarger vehi-
cles viable if gas prices continue to rise.
Trucks and SUVs are indispensable for
the U.S. society, said Takeshi Uchiyama-
da, Toyotasexecutivevicepresident for re-
search and development.
Thecompaniesarent sureyet what kind
of gas mileagethesystemwill get, but they
know that hybrid trucks would help auto-
makers meet U.S. fuel economy standards
that require new vehicles to average 56.5
miles per gallon by 2025. Trucks will have
lower mileage targets, but still wouldhave
to improve to meet the standards.
Neither company would say what vehi-
cles the system would go into, but it was
clear they are targeting pickup trucks,
which for both are big sellers. Fords F-Se-
ries pickup is the top-selling vehicle in the
U.S., andToyota is still tryingtobreakinto
the full-sized pickup market with its Tun-
dra model.
Both companies now sell thousands of
hybrid cars and trucks worldwide, with
Toyotas Prius the world leader in hybrid
sales. But theyll have to develop a differ-
ent systemwithenoughpower tohaul and
towheavy loads.
Derrick Kuzak, Fords product develop-
ment chief, said Ford expects that 10 to 20
percent of Fords vehicles will have hybrid
or electric powertrains by 2020. This is
just a reflection of that plan, he said.

When the economy looks shaky, many investors consider technology companies to be risky. So
these stocks often fall more than others in a down market. The Nasdaq composite index, which is
seen as an indicator of how tech stocks are doing, has fallen 18 percent from its high on July 22.
The S&P 500 fell 16 percent.
But financial analysts say some tech stocks are a good buy. Here are three of their favorites:
Take a chance on tech
Canaccord Genuity analyst Bobby Burleson raised AMDs stock to a
buy because of the chip makers gains in market share in laptops and
servers. In the second quarter, its share of the global microprocessor
market rose 1.5 percentage points to 20.4 percent. Intel lost 1.5 points
and had 79.3 percent, according to research firm IDC. Burleson has an
$8 price target on the stock.

Qualcomms chips are inside the iPhone and other smartphones.
Goldman analyst Simona Jankowski has a buy rating on its stock and
a $68 price target. Thats a nearly 50 percent increase from its closing
price on Monday. Sales of smartphones and tablets have risen even as
the economy has slowed. Goldman believes that prices for Qualcomm
chips, and therefore its profits, will continue to rise.

Analysts say Apples stock has plenty of room to rise. They like it for
more than just its iPhone and iPad. The company had a $76.2 billion
reserve of cash and securities at the end of June. Brian Marshall of
Gleacher predicts the stock will hit $500. Brian White of Ticonderoga
Securities says Apple could reach $666 in the next year. He likes the
fact that it thrived during the recession.

Analysts at Wells Fargo cut their
price target on the banks stock to
$7-$9 from $10-$12. They cited
fears about a recession.
The technology companys stock re-
covered following last weeks sell-
off. HP said last Thursday it would
restructure its business.
The New York Post reported that
private equity firmApollo Manage-
ment was preparing an offer for the
discount store chain.
The stock market stabilized as investors looked for
cheap stocks after a four-week losing streak.
Compared with the wild swings of earlier this
month, trading was relatively calm. The Dow rose
0.3 percent. The S&P 500 rose less than one
point. The Nasdaq rose 0.2 percent. Investors still
worry the U.S. may fall into another recession.
Some hope the Fed will announce action to help
the economy at its annual retreat in Jackson Hole,
Wyo., on Friday.

Many places out-

morning had
readings in the
40s, our coolest
morning since
July 1, and under
a blanket of dry
air scattered

will blossomthis
afternoon but
theres a guaran-
tee for no rain.
Temperatures
will once again
remain below 80
since the suns
rays are only as
strong now as
they are on May
19. Slightly
warmer air will
move in tomor-
row and our next
chance for rain
will come
Thursday when
showers will
form along a
trough. A thun-
derstormis also
possible
Thursday. As
hurricane Irene
approaches later
this week some
of her wind and
rain could arrive
here on Sunday
and /or Monday.

NATIONAL FORECAST: A slow moving frontal boundary stretched across the Southeast will be
responsible for scattered showers and thunderstorms for most of the southern Atlantic Coast, most
of the Gulf Coast, and into the Mississippi River Valley. Meanwhile, a chance of showers and thunder-
storms will be possible for the Upper Midwest and portions of the Great Lakes.

THE TIMES LEADER TUESDAY, AUGUST 23, 2011

Q: When I was diag-
nosed with diver-
ticulitis, I was advised
against eating any
nuts, popcorn or
seeds. My doctor at
the time advised me to
stay away from hard
seeds as well as soft seeds. Now, I see
theres controversy regarding the needs
to avoid seeds. What is your opinion?
Are there any studies regarding this?
-- D.M., Tunkhannock
A: First, a point of clarification: Diver-
ticulosis refers to those nook and cran-
nies that are tiny finger-like outpocket-
ings ballooning out through the colons
muscular wall. Some people have none,
and others have dozens. Diverticulitis is
an infection of one or more of those
diverticuli sacs. Diverticuli dont empty
well; stool can get trapped in those sacs
and then become infected and inflamed.
This causes abdominal pain, typically in
the left lower abdomen. Thats because
diverticuli usually are present on that
side.
When theres diverticulosis, eating
large amounts of fiber and roughage
help to keep the pipes clean. In fact, its
a Western low-fiber diet that increases
the chances of developing diverticular
disease. But when diverticulitis is pre-
sent, the last thing that youd want to do
is consume high amounts of fiber or
roughage. Thatll further inflame and
injure the colon.
For years, doctors have said that nuts,
popcorn and anything with seeds
should be avoided in diverticulosis or
diverticulitis. Because obstruction of
the diverticular sac is associated with
complications, it has been suggested
that avoiding foods with seeds or nuts
(such as popcorn, pomegranates or
strawberries) will reduce the risk of
complications. Although this suggesti-
on makes sense, there is no research
evidence that the risk of complications
is reduced by avoiding seeds. In fact, a
Harvard School of Public Health study
of 47,228 male health professionals
between the ages of 40 and 75 who had
no history of diverticulosis/diverticul-
itis found that men who ate nuts, corn
or popcorn frequently had no greater
risk for developing diverticulitis than
men who rarely ate those foods. A gen-
eral rule is that small amounts of these
foods are probably fine. However, if you
know that certain foods aggravate your
diverticular condition, it makes sense to
avoid them.

girls fromsexuallytransmitteddiseases?
Some doctors say the answer is to vacci-
nate boys.
More than 65 million Americans
thatsoneinfivecarryasexuallytrans-
mitted disease. The most common one
the human papilloma virus, or HPV
affects more than half of sexually ac-
tive Americans at some point, according
to the federal government.
Since 2007, health officials have rec-
ommendedthat adolescent girls get vac-
cinated against HPV because it can lead
to cervical cancer later in life.
Now, theyre also suggesting the vac-
cinefor boystoprevent genital wartsand
anal cancer, rare symptoms of HPV. But
for some doctors, vaccinating boys is al-
so a favored new strategy in preventing
the spread of the virus to girls.
Dr. Sameena Evers, a physician at Dil-
worthPediatrics, encourages boys toget
vaccinated against HPV so that girls
dont get it. This kind of practice is
called herd immunity, or vaccinating
onesegment of thepopulationtoprotect
another.
Its no surprise that women are get-
ting it from the men in the world, said
Evers.
Officials say that along with Pap
smears, vaccinating girls is the most ef-
fective way to prevent cervical cancer.
They say its as important for girls as
vaccinating against illnesses like teta-
nus, meningitis, andtheflu. Theseriesof
three shots cost about $400 or more but
are covered by Medicaid and most pri-
vate insurance programs.
Since the approval of the vaccine for
boys in 2009, health officials have debat-
ed whether vaccinating boys for girls
sake is an effective way to control cervi-
cal cancer. In part, there are questions
about how long the vaccine stays active
in boys bodies.
The federal government recommends
the vaccine for boys, too, but its consid-
ered less urgent. Its optional for doctors
to tell boys and their parents about it.
But many doctors are recommending
it tobothboys andgirls withthesameur-
gency. Every year, cervical cancer leads
to about 4,000 deaths in the United
States. (By comparison, breast cancer

The correlation between cer-
vical cancer and some types
of HPV is clear: the primary
cause of the cancer in women
is HPV. One out of 10,000
women who contract HPV end
up with cervical cancer.

ardiopulmonary resuscitation is the medical term for
theemergencyprocedureusedtorestorebloodcircula-
tion and breathing to a person in cardiac arrest. Com-
monly known as CPR, it is one of the first life-saving skills a
nursing student learns. For Sister Ruth Neely, the acronym
CPR holds a special and equally powerful meaning. CPR --
Compassion, Presence and Reassurance -- are key in her ef-
fort to help individuals diagnosed with HIV/AIDS.
Formerly the director of health ser-
vices and director of nursing at the
Mercy Retirement Center in Dallas,
Sister Ruth has delivered more than
40 years of care to patients. Today she
uses her values as a Sister of Mercy to
provide care and direction for more
than 400 HIV/AIDS patients at the
Wright Center for Primary Care in
Scranton. She stresses that each per-
son is different and she focuses on the
human face of HIV/AIDS.
Im focused more on the person
than on the HIV/AIDS, enabling the
personthroughthe experience of hav-
ing HIV/AIDS to uncover a greater
integrity and sense of direction than
they had before the diagnosis, reads
Sister Ruths mission statement. This
is but one of the many examples of
her outward thinking toward patient
care.
AIDS is a life threatening disease
and an extremely delicate, often un-
comfortable subject to broach.
Among the most difficult aspect of an
HIV/AIDS diagnosis is the embar-
rassment the afflicted face afterward.
The stigma associated with the dis-
ease can be devastating. Promiscuity,
irresponsibility and carelessness are
just a few words associated with the
viral infection. Sister Ruth said she
makes a point to look beyond the ill-
ness -- and beyond labels.
If you listen attentively to some-
one, to their essential self, you will of-
ten find at the deepest most uncon-
scious level, they can sense the direc-
tion of their own healing and whole-
ness, Sister Ruth said.
If I can remain open to that with-
out expectations of what a person is
supposed to do, what can happen is

mary Care in Scranton.
