NEW YORK When this years
Sept. 11 anniversary ceremony unfolds
today at ground zero, the mayor who
has helped orchestrate the observances
from their start will be watching for his
last time in ofce. And saying nothing.
Over his years as mayor and chair-
man of the National Sept. 11 Memorial
& Museum, Michael Bloomberg has
sometimes tangled with victims rela-
tives, religious leaders and other elected
ofcials over an event steeped in sym-
bolismand emotion.
But his administrationhas largely suc-
ceeded at its goal of keeping the com-
memoration centered on the attacks
victims and their families and relatively
free of political image-making. In that
spirit, no politicians including the
mayor were allowed to speak last
year or will be this year.
Memorial organizers expect to take
primary responsibility for the ceremony
next year and say they plan to continue
concentrating the event on victims
loved ones, even as the forthcoming
museum creates a new, broader frame-
work for remembering 9/11.
As things evolve in the future, the
focus on the remembrance is going to
stay sacrosanct, memorial President
Joe Daniels says.
At todays ceremony on the 2-year-old
memorial plaza, relatives will again read
the names of the nearly 3,000 people
who died when hijacked jets crashed
into the World Trade Center and the
Pentagon and near Shanksville. Readers
also will recite the 1993 trade center
bombing victims names.
At the Flight 93 National Memorial
in Shanksville, where todays ceremony
will include bell-ringing and wreath-lay-
ing, ofcials gathered Tuesday to mark
the start of construction on a visitor
center. The Pentagon plans a morning
ceremony for victims relatives and sur-
vivors of the attacks, with wreath-laying
and remarks from Defense Secretary
Chuck Hagel and other ofcials, and
an afternoon observance for Pentagon
workers.
Deciding how to mark the anniversa-
ry of the worst terror strike in U.S. his-
tory was a sensitive task for Bloomberg
and other leaders in the months after
the attacks, perhaps especially for the
then-new mayor. Ofcials were plan-
ning a memorial service for thousands
of families from90 countries, while also
setting a tone for how the public would
commemorate 9/11.
That was the challenge that we
faced, and it was an enormous one,
recalls Jonathan Greenspun, who then
was part of Bloombergs community
affairs unit and nowis a political consul-
tant. There was a recognition, by the
mayor, that the ceremony had to tran-
scend typical memorial services and the
politics that are sometimes associated
with them.
Ofcials elded about 4,500 sugges-
tions including a Broadway parade
honoring rescue workers and a one-min-
ute blackout of all Manhattan before
crafting a plan centered on reading
names at ground zero.
Our intent is to have a day of obser-

Obama: Give diplomacy a chance
WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama asked Congress on
Tuesday to postpone a vote on air-
strikes against Syria to allow time
to explore a Russian proposal to get
Syria to turn over its chemical weap-
ons to international control.
Obama made the dramatic last-
minute turnaround in closed-door
meetings with members of Congress
and then in a prime-time address to
the nation, even as he was dispatch-
ing Secretary of State John Kerry
to Geneva to meet with his Russian
counterpart later this week. Their
goal: a binding resolution in the U.N.
Security Council, where Russia had
threatened to veto any move against
its ally in Syria.
Over the last few days, weve
seen some encouraging signs, in
part because of the credible threat of
U.S. military action, Obama said in
a 15-minute address from the White
House. Its too early to tell whether
this offer will succeed but this ini-
tiative has the potential to remove
the threat of chemical weapons with-
out the use of force.
As the United States stepped back
from the thorny debate over whether
to strike, Syria said it was already
agreeing to the Russian proposal to
surrender its chemical weapons and
adhere to a longstanding global arms
control agreement that bans the pro-
duction, stockpiling and use of such
weapons. We are ready to honor
our commitments under this conven-
tion, including providing informa-
tion about these weapons, Syrian
Foreign Minister Walid al Moallem
said in Moscow.
Obama, as well as the leaders of
France and Britain, agreed to work

SCRANTON A Philadelphia environmental
advocacy group has identied 50 U.S. power plants
as the most prolic carbon dioxide polluters world-
wide and Pennsylvania has some of the worst
offenders.
According to a report released Tuesday by
PennEnvironment Research & Policy Center, the
states power plants are the third largest contribu-
tors to these emissions after the ones in Texas and
California. Overall, the countrys 50 heaviest carbon
dioxide emitters send up 2 percent of the worlds
carbon dioxide that is a byproduct of electricity gen-
eration.
PennEnvironment researchers lookedat the more
than 6,000 power plants in the United States and
found, in 2011, 50 of those power plants produced
30 percent of total carbon emissions.
The report, called Americas Dirtiest Power
Plants, points to the United States as the second
greatest contributor to carbon emissions world-
wide, pumping about 5,250 million metric tons
(mmt) of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.
China emits about 9,750 mmt. India ranks third,
contributing 2,000 mmt to the annual global share
of carbon emissions, according to the report.
The report showed the countrys heaviest carbon-
emitting coal-red plant is the Scherer Power Plant
in Georgia, which pushed out 21.3 mmt in 2011.

Corby, PennEnvironments Global Warming and

double power plants emissions. The report notes
that, to reduce the threat of global warming, a com-
prehensive emissions policy should encourage alter-
native vehicle fuel as well.
Corby prefaced her speech by saying that in
the last two years uncanny weather patterns only
point to an increasing global temperature, and

WILKES-BARRE City
Council on Thursday will con-
sider a resolution to hire an
architectural rm to prepare
a study for the former First
National Bank building on
Public Square.
Mayor Tom Leighton told
council the Williams Kinsman
Lewis Architectural Firm,
Wilkes-Barre, has bid $68,500 to
do the preliminary design on the
building that has been vacant
since the early 1970s.
The study will determine
what it will cost to repair
the buildings roof and
masonry to get it sta-
bilized for prospective
developers.
The costs will be paid
from $1.3 million in gam-
ing funds that city received for
the building. Leighton said he
hopes that by doing the work,
developers will show interest.
The economy appears to be
better now, he said.
In 2010, James Burke and
architect Don Sanderson
had proposed to establish an
Anthracite Miners Museum in
the former bank building, but
withdrew their interest more
than two years ago. The
building was built in
1906 and a tree grows
on the roof.
At the time, Leighton
said he was supportive
of the project but told
Burke that he couldnt
commit to a specic
project because there
were other interested develop-
ers.
The structure was the rst
building on Public Square,
according to Burke. He and
Sanderson planned to raise
$600,000 to transform it into
a museum. Sanderson said the
one-story buildings 40-foot-high
ceiling made it not scally fea-
sible to build a second oor.
Burke has since developed a
relationship with Kings College
to be the home of his Anthracite
Heritage Foundation, having
held several events there to cel-
ebrate the regions mining his-
tory.
In another matter,
Councilwoman Maureen Lavelle
asked Leighton to have the city
look into complaints about a
four-unit apartment building on
South Hancock Street. Lavelle
said a fth unit was been added,
which is a violation of the city
zoning regulations.
Lavelle said no permits have
been issued for work done on
the building. Leighton said city
ofcials will look into the mat-
ter.
The city will remove the large
metal structure on Public Square
to make way for construction of
a permanent stage. Leighton
said Pittston has expressed
interest in the structure and the
city will let it go at no charge.

Docs: Ofcials
misused US
surveillance
program
SAN FRANCISCO Government ofcials
for nearly three years accessed data on thousands
of domestic phone numbers they shouldnt have
and then misrepresented their actions to a secret
spy court to reauthorize the governments sur-
veillance program, documents released Tuesday
show.
The Obama administration had earlier conced-
ed that its surveillance programscooped up more
domestic phone calls and emails than authorized.
But until Tuesday, the depths of the programs
abuse were unknown.
According to the documents released by the
administration, a spy court judge in 2009 was so
fed up with the governments overreaching that
he threatened to shutter the surveillance program
designed to ght terrorism. Judge Reggie Walton
said in March 2009 that he had lost condence
in ofcials ability to legally operate the surveil-
lance program.
The NSA told the Foreign Intelligence
Surveillance Court that month that from a tech-
nical standpoint, there was no single person who
had a complete technical understanding of how
the programs computer systemworked.
Walton issued his blistering opinion after dis-
covering government ofcials had been accessing
domestic phone records for nearly three years
without reasonable, articulate suspicion that
they were connected to terrorism. For instance,
he noted that only 1,935 phone numbers out of
17,835 on a list investigators were working with
in early 2009 met that standard.
Walton said the governments excuse that ana-
lysts believed his order applied only to archived
phone records strained credulity, and he
ordered the National Security Agency to conduct
an end-to-end review of its processes and poli-
cies while also ordering closer monitoring of its
activities.
Later in 2009, a Justice Department lawyer
reported to the spy court a likely violation of
NSA surveillance rules. The lawyer said that in
some cases, it appeared the NSAwas distributing
sensitive phone records by email to as many as
189 analysts, but only 53 were approved by the
court to see them.
Walton wrote he was deeply troubled by the
incidents, which he said occurred just weeks
after the NSAhadperformeda major reviewof its
internal practices because of the initial problems
reported earlier in the year.
The judge said in November 2009 that on
the same day the NSA counterterrorism ofce
reminded employees they were not allowed to
indiscriminately share phone records with co-
workers and one day after a similar reminder
from the agencys lawyers an NSA analyst
improperly shared information with colleagues
who were not approved to see it.
Walton also noted that sometimes a U.S. phone
number would be reassigned by phone compa-
nies, and in such cases the NSAwould scrutinize
therecordsof aninnocent customer. Waltoncalled
such cases a source of concern by the court. He
noted that, months earlier, the court ordered the
NSA to explain more fully how it chooses which
phone numbers to search and to delete any infor-
mation that was improperly collected.
This report was not sufciently detailed to
allay the courts concerns, Walton wrote. He
ordered the NSA going forward to regularly tell
the court the number of phone records searched,
the time period they could be searched and
details about how the NSA analysts were con-
ducting searches suggested by results from other
searches.

DUPONT Borough residents and
the owner of Continental Bar and Grill
came to Tuesday nights council meeting
in response to complaints about activities
at the establishment.
John Slivkanch, of Center Street, pre-
sented a petition with 30 signatures of
residents in the vicinity of Continental
seeking permit parking only in that area.
He then repeated his complaint from
the August public meeting that patrons are
littering, and some cases, urinating in his
property when they leave the bar.
Amari Oliveira, the establishments
owner, said he feels discriminated against
by the residents and police in the area.
He took issue with occasions when
borough ofcers entered his bar, accusing
them of harassment, and said he believed
black and latino customers are routinely
treated with more scrutiny when leaving
the bar than white customers.
But acting police Chief John Saranchek
denied the accusations. He said ofcers
have entered the bar only in response to
calls.
He said that on the night of Aug. 16
alone, 13 calls were received from eight
different callers between 9:41 p.m. and
2:07 a.m. While he didnt provide specic
numbers, Saranchek said no patrons were
singled out on the basis of race or skin
color.
Several residents also denied accusa-
tions of discrimination and said their com-
plaints concerned noise and lewd behav-
ior.
Bill DeFazio, the owner of the building
that houses Continental, however, sup-
ported Oliveiras contention, and said he
had very loud and popular musical acts
when he ran Corner Pocket Lounge but
never received complaints about noise.
Oliveira said he installed thousands of
dollars worth of sound proong to the
windows and walls. He said he also red
a D.J. who repeatedly exceeded volume
limits and regularly monitors whats going
on outside during closing times when he
is present.
Borough ofcials told residents about
their intentions to have private meetings
involving DeFazio, Oliveira and police
ofcers.
The regular council meeting will be on
Oct. 8 at 7 p.m.

SHEENA DELAZIO
sdelazio@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE Juan Borbon
was close to GAR High School
when Marquis Allen was attacked
with a machete that nearly severed
on Feb. 9, 2012.
But, Borbon testied Tuesday, he
wasnt involved in the ght between
students of African American and
Dominican descent.
He said he was getting sandwich-
es for him and his pregnant girl-
friend at a nearby Dominican store.
Borbon, 21, faces a number of
charges on allegations he swung the
machete at Allen, then 15, who was
trying to break up the ght and help
someone who was being jumped.
Prosecutors and defense attor-
neys completed calling witnesses
Tuesday. They will present their
closing arguments to a jury today
before the jurors are instructed on
the charges and sent to deliberate.
Borbon testied in his own
defense Tuesday, with the help of a
Spanish interpreter, saying he start-
ed his day by going to Scranton with
his aunt, Rosemary Borbon, to apply
for jobs. They returned between
2:30 and 3 p.m., when Borbon was
dropped off near Blackman and
Hazle streets, and walked the three
miles to the Dominican store, about
two blocks from GAR High School.
There, he said, he bought two
sandwiches and returned to his
aunts home on Franklin Street
around 3:30 p.m.
Prosecutors witnesses testied
differently. Yansy Abreau, 18, said
Borbon met him at GAR, where the
two joined a group that was going
to ght a group of black kids.
Neither Borbon nor Abreu was a
student at GAR at the time.
Abreu, who failed to abide by
a subpoena and was taken to the
courthouse by investigators, tes-
tied Borbon had a machete and
swung it at Allen, hitting Allens
wrist.
Abreu said he didnt remember
what Borbon looked like or what he
was wearing, and he said he didnt
supply the machete to Borbon.
Abreu is under juvenile supervision
for unspecied charges.
When asked by Borbons attor-
ney, Paul Galante, if Borbon had
previously been known to carry a
machete, Abreu said yes, but that
he hadnt carried one since about a
month before the GAR incident.
Several witnesses testied
Tuesday the male they saw swing
the machete at Allen had his hair,
dyed red, pulled back into a puffy
ponytail. Prosecutors say that
is how Borbon appeared at the
time and he has since changed his
appearance.
Allen, who attended GAR at the
time, testied that after school that
day he saw the two groups ght-
ing and broke up two people before
going to a group of three Hispanic
males jumping a black male.
I pushed them off and told them
to chill, Allen said, noting he next
reached down to pick up the male
with his right hand.
He said thats when someone
grabbed two of his left ngers and
hit him with what he thought was
a bat until he saw the machetes
blade.
The person wielding the machete,
he said, had reddish hair in a pony
tail. Allen waited for the ambu-
lance that took him to Geisinger
Wyoming Valley Medical Center,
where he underwent nine hours of
surgery.
Borbons aunt, Rosemary Borbon,
and his girlfriend and mother of
his two children, Aleyey Ovalles,
also testified Borbon had been in
Scranton in the morning, got sand-
wiches and returned home around
3:30 p.m.
Deputy District Attorney Alexis
Falvello asked Borbon and Ovalles if
they were lying to protect Borbon.
Both women said no, with the help
of interpreters. Rosemary Borbon
said her nephews hair was red that
day; Ovalles said it was black.

All non-union Luzerne
County government employ-
ees must work at least 37.5 per
week effective Jan. 2, and the
administration will attempt
to negotiate the change
into union contracts as they
expire, county council decided
Tuesday.
Full-time county employ-
ees currently work anywhere
from 32.5 to 40 hours a week
depending on the position and
department.
Most non-union workers at
the courthouse follow a sched-
ule of 32.5 hours, but non-
union prison staffers are at
35 hours. Human service non-
union employees have been at
37.5 hours for years.
County Manager Robert
Lawton has vowed to stream-
line and reduce staff to com-
pensate for paying some
employees to work more.
Council had planned to
make the new directive
effective within 30 days but
changed to Jan. 2 to allow
Lawton more time to develop
a plan and factor changes into
the 2014 budget.
Lawton announced Tuesday
he has appointed deputy bud-
get/nance director Donna
Magni the interim budget/
nance division head because
senior accountant Brian Swetz
isnt permitted to serve in the
temporary division head post
for more than 90 days. Swetz
was made interim budget head
in June.
Magni, who has a bachelors
degree in accounting, was
hired as deputy in February
2011 at $40,000 and wont
receive an increase to handle
the temporary division head
duties.
She will be instrumental in
preparation of the 2014 bud-
get because Lawton expects
the yet-to-be-hired profes-
sional recruiter to be seeking
budget/nance division head
applicants through Nov. 15.
Chief Solicitor C. David
Pedri told council the emails
council members send to each
other will be publicly posted
on the county website, www.
luzernecounty.org, starting
Oct. 1.
Council members pushed
for the online posting, which
occurs in some Florida
counties but is unusual in
Pennsylvania, to increase
transparency.
The move also will elimi-
nate the need to process
Right-to-Know requests for
these emails. Pedri told coun-
cil candidate Kathy Dobash
on Tuesday his ofce spent
$10,000 reviewing about
30,000 emails to comply with
her request last spring for all
emails exchanged by council
members since January 2012.
Pedri also announced plans
to start publicly posting all
Right-to-Know requests and
the information provided in
response on the county web-
site by the end of the month.
His ofce has received about
140 public information
requests this year to date, and
Pedri said the online posting
will give all citizens access to
the information supplied by
his ofce.
Councilman Edward Brom-
inski complained Tuesday that
newly appointed Controller
Walter Mitchell is still operat-
ing his insurance and nan-
cial estate planning rm out-
side county business hours.
Brominski said the council-
adopted administrative code
says the controller cannot have
other outside employment.
Pedri said the countys home
rule charter does not ban the
controller from other outside
employment, and the charter
supersedes the administrative
code if the two conict. He
said he will provide an opinion
to council on the matter.
Mitchell was recently
appointed to ll the rest of
Walter Grifths term until the
controller elected in November
takes ofce in January.

Trial still onin
Plymouthhomicide
The Dec. 9 homicide trial for
William Allabaugh, 25, is still on
schedule, a Luzerne County judge
said Tuesday.
Allabaugh, of
Plymouth, is charged
in the September
2012 shooting
death of 39-year-old
Scott Luzetsky, and
wounding of Stephen
Hollman, then 29,
at Bonnies Bar in
Plymouth.
In July, the trial was put on hold
due to a letter written by Allabaughs
mother regarding the representation
of his previous attorneys.
Allabaugh had since been assigned
new attorneys, Robert Buttner and
John Hakim. Although on Tuesday
Hakim said he had to withdraw his
appearance because he had personal
and professional relationships with
Luzetskys sisters.
Another pre-trial hearing will be on
Oct. 10, Judge Lesa Gelb said.

Borough:
Hauler
violates
order
SHEENADELAZIO
sdelazio@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE The borough of
West Wyoming says that despite a judges
order that businessman Joseph Russell
stop running a hauling company, he con-
tinues to operate the business under
another entity.
Incourt papers ledTuesdaybysolicitor
Linell Lukesh, the borough led a request
to hold Russell in contempt and sanction
himfor failing to abide by Luzerne County
Judge Michael Voughs ruling to stop oper-
ations at Russells Hauling.
On July 23 the borough led a request
for a special injunction against Russells
Hauling to cease and desist because of
neighbor complaints and Russells alleged
failure to have the business properly
licensed and zoned.
In early August, Vough ruled the busi-
ness must stop operation until further
order of the court.
The borough charged Russell continues
to operate his business at a neighboring
auto dealer to the Apollo Drive business,
and that the borough continues to receive
complaints from neighbors regarding
noise.
After hearing from a Times Leader
reporter about the most recent ling,
Russell said he is not operating his haul-
ing business in West Wyoming and had
been asked by the owner of VP Auto Parts
to operate and manage the salvage yard
there.
Russell also said his hauling business is
in the process of opening an ofce in the
borough of Wyoming.
I have to work and support my fam-
ily, Russell said. Working for (VP Auto
Parts) allows me to do that. Imjust trying
to make a living. AmI not allowed to work
at any other business?
Court papers led Tuesday by the bor-
ough allege that VP Auto Parts business
has been inactive for years and that Russell
has not completely moved out of his haul-
ing business. Russell said the auto parts
business is owned by John Pisanechi, who
could not be reached for comment.
(Russell) is clearly trying to usurp the
courts order and continue to operate a
business where he has no proper permit
nor license and is in violation of local ordi-
nance, and most clearly, the courts order
to cease and desist, Lukesh wrote.
Russell has been nothing but unco-
operative Lukesh wrote, and remains
in deliberate non-compliance with the
judges order.
The borough asks that Russell be
ordered to stop any other business in
West Wyoming, be held in contempt, pay
damages for police and code enforcement
services, and pay the costs for Tuesdays
ling.
In emails attached to Lukeshs l-
ing, neighbors Charles Umphred
and Tom and Linda Ciampi said that
because of continued noise they have
had to call 911 a number of times
since the business was ordered to stop.

PITTSBURGH As gas drilling
booms in Pennsylvania, major industry
groups are backing efforts to change the
states endangered and threatened spe-
cies laws, alterations that environmental-
ists say could have far-reaching effects on
wildlife.
The Marcellus Shale Coalition, the
Pennsylvania Independent Oil & Gas
Association, andtheAssociatedPetroleum
Industries of Pennsylvania outlined their
support in an Aug. 26 letter obtained
by The Associated Press. The industry
said the proposed legislation provides
for more efcient and effective resource
development as well as transparency
and accountability.
Legislation in the state House and
Senate would put some limits on the
exclusive authority that the Pennsylvania
Game Commission and Pennsylvania Fish
and Boat Commission currently have to
list birds, animals, sh and other species,
and to grant special consideration to spe-
cial wild trout streams.
The bills would instead give the
state Independent Regulatory Review
Commission a major role in the listing
process.
George Jugovic, a lawyer with the envi-
ronmental group Penn Future, said the
existing system is working well, and that
the political independence of the Game
and Fish commissions makes them better
able to protect at-risk species. In contrast,
the Regulatory ReviewCommission mem-
bers are political appointees.
The legislation is a bad idea wrapped
in a number of bad ideas, Jugovic said.
The state programs are separate from
federal endangered species listings and
are often used to manage species that
are threatened in a particular region but
perhaps not nationally. Pennsylvania lists
about 88 birds, sh, amphibians and other
animals as endangered or threatened. For
example, the black-crowned night heron is
listed as endangered in Pennsylvania, but
not nationally.
In practical terms, developers and oil
and gas companies face additional restric-
tions whena parcel of landis listedas habi-
tat for a threatened or endangered species.

WASHINGTON The
U.S. is facing a crisis in how
to deliver cancer care, as the
baby boomers reach their
tumor-prone years and doc-
tors have a hard time keep-
ing up with complex new
treatments, government
advisers reported Tuesday.
The caution comes even as
scientists are learning more
than ever about better ways
to battle cancer, and devel-
oping innovative therapies
to target tumors.
And while doctors try
to optimize treatment, the
Institute of Medicine found
daunting barriers to
achieving high-quality care
for all patients. Overcoming
those challenges will require
changes to the health care
system, and savvier consum-
ers.
We do not want to fright-
en or scare people who are
getting care now, said Dr.
Patricia Ganz, a cancer spe-
cialist at the University of
California, Los Angeles, who
chaired the panel.
But too often, decisions
about cancer treatments
arent based on good evi-
dence, and patients may not
understand their choices
and what to expect, the
panel found. For example,
some studies suggest that
two-thirds or more of can-
cer patients with poor prog-
noses incorrectly believe
the treatments they receive
could cure them.
Topping the list of recom-
mendations is nding ways
to help patients make more
informed decisions, with
easy-to-understand informa-
tion on the pros, cons and
costs of different treatments.
The patient cant be pas-
sive, Ganz said. Its an
important partnership that
we need.
The risk of cancer increas-
es with age, and older adults
account for just over half of
the 1.6 million new cases
diagnosed each year. By
2030, new diagnoses are
expected to reach 2.3 mil-
lion a year as the population
ages. The report warns there
may not be enough oncology
specialists to care for them.
Perhaps a bigger concern
is the growing complexity of
care. Increasingly, scientists
are nding genetic differenc-
es inside tumors that help
explain why one persons
cancer is more aggressive
than anothers. More impor-
tant, that also means certain
cancer drugs will work for,
say, lung cancer in one per-
son but not the next.
If your doctor doesnt
know that, or your hospital
doesnt do the test, you dont
have that opportunity for
newer, targeted therapies,
Ganz said. But, we are liv-
ing in an information age
where its impossible to keep
up.
Its not just a matter of
knowing the latest treat-
ments, but deciding if
theyre worth it for an indi-
vidual patient. Consider:
Of 13 cancer treatments
approved by the Food and
Drug Administration last
year, only one was proven
to extend survival by more
than a median of six months,
the report said. The drugs
all cost more than $5,900 for
each month of treatment.
For older adults, treatment
decisions may be even more
complicated because
the studies that test differ-
ent therapies dont include
enough people over age 65,
who tend to have multiple
health problems along with
cancer, Ganz explained.

School bars girls
diabetes dog
A diabetic 11-year-old whose family
paid $20,000 for a dog trained to sniff
out blood sugar swings at school is
being tutored at home after the school
district refused to allow the service ani-
mal in class.
Madyson Siragusas parents say her
dog named Duke is no different than the
seeing-eye dogs allowed inside public
buildings and are pressing the Rush
Henrietta Central School District to
reconsider.
We have no idea what changed their
mind, Keri Siragusa said of district
ofcials who seemed receptive to the
idea when she proposed it before the
summer recess.
But shortly before the start of the new
school year, Siragusa said, the suburban
Rochester district sent a letter barring
the dog because of concerns it would be
a distraction, scare other children and
aggravate allergies.

Feds to create

Deputy Attorney General James Cole
told Congress on Tuesday.
The issue has taken on greater urgen-
cy now that Colorado and Washington
have become the rst states to legalize
recreational use of marijuana.
Currently, processing money from
marijuana sales puts federally insured
banks at risk of drug racketeering
charges.

9 militants killed

Egyptian army troops backed by

Peninsula on Tuesday, killing nine and
arresting 10, a military ofcial said. The
latest raids raised the death toll from four
days of operations to 29.
Ofcials have described the military
offensive that started Saturday as the
biggest sweep of the region in recent
years, aiming to weed out al-Qaida-
inspired groups who have taken hold in
villages in northern Sinai.
A military ofcial said militant infra-
structure including weapons caches, mis-
sile launchers, and nearly 100 vehicles
were targeted in the operation. The
ofcial said troops, often with the help of
air cover, have also targeted shacks and
homes used by militants as hideouts, and
areas where they stacked fuel.

All quiet
on the
weather
front
WASHINGTON After a
couple years of wild, deadly and
costly weather, the United States
is mostly getting a lucky break
this year. So far.
Summer is almost over, and as
of Tuesday morning, not a single
hurricane had formed this year.
Tornado activity in 2013 is also
down around record low levels,
while heat waves are fewer and
milder than last year, accord-
ing to the National Oceanic and
Atmospheric Administration.
Meteorologists credit luck,
shifts in the high-altitude jet
stream, and African winds and
dust.
Its been great, said Deke
Arndt, climate monitoring chief
for NOAAs National Climatic
Data Center in Asheville, N.C.
I hope that we ride this pattern
out through this year and follow-
ing years.
There have been eight tropi-
cal storms in the Atlantic. Not
one has reached the 74 mph
wind threshold to become a hur-
ricane, though Tropical Storm
Humberto off the coast of Africa
is likely to become one soon.
If Humberto stays a tropi-
cal storm through 8 a.m. EDT
today, it will be the latest date for
the rst hurricane of the season
since satellites started watching
the seas in 1967, according to
the National Hurricane Center.
This year, overall storm activ-
ity in the Atlantic an index
that combines number and
strength is about one-fth the
average. Thats despite warmer-
than-normal seas, which usually
fuel storms.
It has also been a record of
nearly eight years since a major
hurricane one with winds
of 110 mph blew ashore in
the United States. That was
Hurricane Wilma, which hit
Florida in October 2005.
Meteorologists say dry, stable
and at times dusty air blowing
from Africa is choking storms
instead of allowing them to
grow. On top of that, shifts in the
jet stream the same river of
air some blame for wild weather
in 2011 and 2012 have caused
dry air and wind shear, which
interfere with storm forma-
tion, said Gerry Bell of NOAAs
Climate Prediction Center.
Plain old random chance
is also a big factor, said MIT
meteorology professor Kerry
Emanuel.
Nobodys complaining,
said former National Hurricane
Center director Max Mayeld.

Indian court convicts 4 in fatal gang rape
NEW DELHI An
Indian court convicted four
men Tuesday in the deadly
gang rape of a young woman
on a moving New Delhi bus,
a brutal crime that galva-
nized public anger over the
widespread yet widely
tolerated sexual violence
faced by Indian women.
As word of the verdict
ltered out, protesters out-
side the courthouse chanted
Hang them! Hang them!
The men were convicted
on all 11 counts against
them, including rape and
murder, and now face the
possibility of hanging. The
sentences are expected to
be handed down today.
Judge Yogesh Khanna
said in his verdict that
the men, who tricked the
23-year-old rape victim and
her male friend into board-
ing the bus they were driv-
ing, had committed mur-
der of a helpless person.
The parents of the
woman, who cannot be
identied under Indian
law, had tears in their eyes
as the verdicts were read.
The mother, wearing a pink
sari, sat just a few feet from
the convicted men in a tiny
courtroom jammed with
lawyers, police and report-
ers. The hearing lasted only
a few minutes, and the four
men were quickly led from
the courtroom by police-
men after the verdicts were
read.
Speaking before the con-
victions, the father of the
victim called for the four to
be executed.
For what happened with
her, these brutes must be
hanged, he told report-
ers as he left home for the
courthouse. Nothing but
the death penalty is accept-
able to us.

WILKES-BARRE A
Missouri man jailed on
drunken-driving and aggra-
vated assault-related offenses
might face vehicular homi-
cide charges after a co-work-
er died.
An autopsy is scheduled
today on the body of Shane
Stewart, 25, of Missouri,
who died at Geisinger
Wyoming Valley Medical
Center in Plains Township.
He was pronounced dead at
5:08 p.m. Monday.
Stewart was injured when
he was struck by a Dodge
Ram pickup allegedly driven
by Patrick R. Ramirez, 25,
of Blue Spring, Mo., in the
parking lot of McDonalds
Restaurant on Kidder Street
in Wilkes-Barre just after
12:30 a.m. Monday.
Ramirez was charged
Monday with aggravated
assault while driving under
the inuence of alcohol, driv-
ing under the inuence of

less driv-
ing. He
r e ma i ns
jailed at the Luzerne County
Correctional Facility for lack
of $50,000 bail.
The charges were led
against Ramirez before
Stewart died.
City police allege
Ramirez, Stewart and Stuart
Thompson spent the night
drinking at a restaurant on
Coal Street, Wilkes-Barre,
where they were picked
up by Derick Marsh and
returned to the Host Inn,
where they were staying.
Stewart left the hotel with
Ramirez and Thompson,
police said. A security guard
at the hotel told police he
tried to stop the three men
from leaving the parking
lot because they appeared
intoxicated, according to the
criminal complaint.
At the McDonalds park-
ing lot, Thompson said,
Stewart and Ramirez argued
about who wanted to drive,
the complaint states.
Ramirez got into the
drivers seat as Stewart
yelled at him to stop, police
said. Witnesses allegedly
told police Ramirez accel-
erated and Stewart landed
on the ground and was pos-
sibly run over by the truck.
Ramirez stopped about 20
feet away and got out, looked
at Stewart and drove away,
according to the complaint.
Police arrested Ramirez at
the Host Inn.
Ramirez refused to sub-
mit to a blood-alcohol test at
Geisinger Wyoming Valley,
police said in the complaint.
The three men are

KINGSTON Mike
Harper has gathered
about 800 signatures in
two weeks urging the
Wyoming Valley West
School Districts board to
reconsider the elimina-
tion of the middle school
librarian position, and
he plans to present them
to the board at tonights
monthly meeting.
Im hoping I can get
up to the podium and
bring this to the fore-
front, Harper said
Tuesday. I think a lot
of middle school parents
arent even aware they
dont have a librarian.
The district decided
to eliminate the posi-
tion last month and
use a part-time aide to
help students. Joann
Prushinski, the state-cer-
tified librarian who had
been managing the mid-
dle school facility, was
shifted to elementary
librarian, spreading
her time among three
schools.
Harper, a Kingston res-
ident who runs Sharper
Embroidery and Screen
printing in Luzerne, said
Prushinski is a friend and
her sister works in his
business, which is what
prompted him to act.
But he added the goal is
not necessarily reinstat-
ing Prushinski in her old
post, just that the post be
reconstituted.
The Pennsylvania
State Board of Education
has recommended there
always be a state-certified
librarian, Harper said.
The middle school is
now the only building in
the district without one.
He added that students
coming from the newly
renovated State Street
Elementary School, with
a state-of-the-art library,
will be transferring to a
middle school with near-
ly 14,000 books and no
librarian.
Union President Linda
Houck had promised
last month to file a labor
grievance because the
decision to eliminate the
post and move Prushinski
to the elementary schools
should have, by law and
contract, been announced
last December.
The move is being
grieved, said Harper,
but he believes the
issue needs to be put in
the public eye as well.
Hopefully, some parents
will show up and we can
get them thinking about
this, he said. I invite
all concerned parents,
taxpayers and voters
to come to the middle
school on Chester Street,
Kingston, at 7 p.m.
Petition launched to restore
Valley West librarian post
After districts recent personnel
moves, middle school has 14,000
books but no librarian

Council approved the
purchase a security sys-
tem for use in its office
area at a cost of $700 on
Tuesday night.
Council also autho-
rized its solicitor, Jarrett
Ferentino, to prepare and
negotiate the terms of
an Intergovernmental
Cooperation Agreement
with West Wyoming
to allow for certain
connections into the
West Wyoming sewer
system at Stites Street.
Council approved the
acceptance of Forty
Fort terminating an
i n t e r m u n i c i p a l
agreement for code
enforcement. Ferentino
said specifics of code
enforcement would be
addressed at its October
meeting.
Offers for the purchase
of a used borough pickup
truck will be opened at
its October meeting.
Resident Frank Prokop
asked council to clarify
ownership of a specific
piece of property on
First Street.
Ferentino said he
was familiar with the
property and would
be reviewing relevant
documents, reporting
back to council.
The next meeting of
council will be on Oct. 8

TheAssociated Press
HARRISBURG Gov.
Tom Corbetts administra-
tion is being told it must
shift tens of thousands of
Pennsylvania children froma
state-subsidized health insur-
ance program to Medicaid,
although the Republican
governor is not saying yet
whether he will comply with
the federal directive.
U.S. Health and Human
Services Secretary Kathleen
Sebelius told Corbett in a
Friday letter that the switch
is required by the 2010 fed-
eral health care law and that
it will simplify coverage for
families by aligning children
under the same program as
their parents.
Corbett has protested
that some children will have
to nd new doctors, but
Sebelius said many other
states have already prepared
for the transition by elimi-
nating age-based eligibility
rules for Medicaid coverage
and by extending Medicaid
eligibility to children 6 or
older whose families earn up
to 133 percent of the federal
poverty level. Advocates for
the poor say children are
better off under Medicaid
anyway because its coverage
is more comprehensive than
Pennsylvanias Childrens
Health Insurance Program,
or CHIP.
Corbetts top insur-
ance regulator, Michael
Consedine, on Tuesday
called Sebelius response
disappointing and could
not yet say whether the
administration will comply
with it or seek to block it,
perhaps through a court
challenge.
I dont think the gover-
nors ready to give up the
ght for this program, so
we continue to evaluate our
options, Consedine said.
Currently, Pennsylvanias
Medicaid program covers
children under 6 whose
families earn up to 133 per-
cent of the federal poverty
level, and children 6 and
over whose families earn
up to 100 percent of the fed-
eral poverty level about
$23,550 for a family of four
this year. The 2010 federal
health care lawalso expands
Medicaid to working-age
adults who earn up to 133
percent of the federal pov-
erty level, although Corbett
has said he will not allow
Pennsylvania to participate
without certain cost-savings
concessions fromthe federal
government.
The change for children
takes effect Jan. 1, although
Sebelius offered in her letter
to cooperate in a phased-in
transition. She also sug-
gested that Pennsylvania
can structure its child health
care to make two programs
appear more like one that
resembles CHIP, with differ-
ent plan benets and cost-
sharing obligations for some
families.
Consedine said the
administration will seek
more information about
those ideas.
Feds: Pa. must switch CHIP kids to Medicaid

Its easy to understand the frustra-
tion of Anthony Maniscola, the for-
mer Pennsylvania Turnpike inspector
general who says the toll-road com-
mission ought to be disbanded and
folded into the state government.
The commission has long served as
a cash cow for politicians. A March
grand jury report found that turnpike
employees regularly hit up contrac-
tors for contributions to politicians.
The spreading of the wealth was even
ritualized: The party in power got 60
percent of the take, and the minority
party got the rest.
But folding the Turnpike
Commission into the state
Department of Transportation
wouldnt solve that problem. To extri-
cate political money from govern-
ment contracting, vendors must be
prohibited from funding politicians
campaigns.
Whether they want to or not, gov-
ernment contractors in Pennsylvania
are expected to support political can-
didates. Doing a good job can be far
less important to their survival as
businesses than keeping the political
class happy.
Outrageously, there is no limit on
how much money a vendor can give a
politician in Pennsylvania. For state-
wide candidates, contributions in the
hundreds of thousands of dollars are
not unusual.
Its true that its especially easy
for politics to overrule good govern-
ment when it comes to independent
authorities such as the Turnpike
Commission, which are shielded from
public view. Maniscola noted that the
turnpike commissioners are political
appointees who can inuence person-
nel and contracting.
The commission says it has cleaned
up its act and become more transpar-
ent. But how much can we expect of
the commission or any other agency
when the states politicians are tak-
ing baths in campaign cash?
New Jersey has an imperfect but
tough pay-to-play law that prohibits
contractors from donating more than
$300 to candidates, and authorities
are enforcing it. Last month, a state
court ordered an engineering rm to
pay $1 million in penalties on top of
a $2.6 million settlement stemming
from its violations of the states pay-
to-play law. Seven executives and
shareholders of the rm, Monmouth
County-based Birdsall Services
Group, face criminal charges, while
two more have pleaded guilty. The
prosecution put Birdsall out of busi-
ness, and it will act as a stiff deter-
rent to others.
What if Pennsylvanias attorney
general had the power to conduct
similar prosecutions? There would
probably be more law enforcement
actions like the one that yielded
criminal charges against high-rank-
ing turnpike employees and a former
state Senate leader. And contractors
would be more worried more about
doing good work than currying polit-
ical favor.
Maniscola was the Turnpike
Commissions rst inspector general,
and he shouldnt be the last. But no
inspector general can clean up an
entrenched pay-to-play culture on
his own. Pennsylvania needs strong
campaign-nance laws and robust
enforcement to do that.

Investigation due
for national group
On Aug. 6, the General Accounting
Ofce announced that it is nally
going to do a nationwide investiga-
tion into how Planned Parenthood,
the largest abortion provider in our
country, spends taxpayer dollars. Of
course, the mainstream media is virtu-
ally ignoring this story.
The government funding to Planned
Parenthood should denitely be cut
because taxpayers are subsidizing
abortion. The money is fungible,
meaning that every dollar the govern-
ment gives Planned Parenthood for
other services frees up money for it to
spend on abortion care. Mechanisms
to segregate public from private funds
are mere accounting gimmicks and
funding schemes.
Planned Parenthoods annual report
for 2011-2012 reveals that it received
$542.4 million from taxpayers in
government grants and reimburse-
ments. During that same time frame,
the 333,964 abortions performed
represented a record high for them. It
should also be noted that as Planned
Parenthoods government funding
went up, abortions increased and real
health services for women went down.
I actually nd one more thing trou-
bling, the fact that Susan B. Komen
still gives Planned Parenthood grant
money, even though there has been
shown to be a direct link between
abortions and breast cancer. The
Coalition on Abortion/Breast Cancer
reported that on Aug. 14 there was
a Bangladesh study published in the
Journal of Dhaka Medical College on
risk factors for breast cancer, led by
Dr. Suraiya Jabeen. The authors found
a statistically signicant 20.62-fold
increased risk among women with
abortion histories by far the high-
est risk elevation reported among
73 published abortion-breast cancer
studies.

Editorial
Restaurant inspections, health edu-
cation and screenings for sexually
transmitted diseases and tuberculosis
are some of the services at risk due to
an Erie County Department of Health
budget shortfall.
As Kevin Flowers reported Thursday,
the county Health Departments nan-
cial problems are twofold. The state
has cut $234,000 from the countys
budget, which runs through June
2014. Because the county is required
to match state funding dollar for dollar,
the cuts actually will amount to at least
$468,000.
The Pennsylvania Health
Department is itself under nancial
pressure. In March, Michael Wolf,
secretary of health, proposed consoli-
dating 60 state-run health centers that
serve rural residents into 34 centers.
That action would have required the
district ofce in Crawford County
to close, but the State Employees
International Union, which represents
nurses, sued to block the closings. The
Pennsylvania Supreme Court issued an
injunction in July to halt the consolida-
tions.
Erie County doesnt have a district
health ofce. Instead, it operates
its own health department. But the
state nances the bulk of the county
Health Departments budget $5
million of the $6.5 million budget for
this year. Cuts in state funding have
been a challenge for the county Health
Department for years, even as the need
grows to tackle public health problems
in our region.
On June 14, for example, we report-
ed that the number of active tubercu-
losis cases had increased from 2011 to
2013, compared to 2007-2010. County
Health Department ofcials stressed
that the increase in TB patients didnt
pose a health risk, but its not hard to
imagine that cuts to health education
programs could lead to an increase in
communicable diseases.
On July 22, we reported that Erie
County was experiencing a mini-
outbreak of syphilis, with six cases
reported in July. Thats as many STDs
as normally occur in a year, Charlotte
Berringer, R.N., director of com-
munity health for the county Health
Department, said then. Sexually
transmitted diseases are serious, and
syphilis can lead to life-threatening
complications. Syphilis can be easily
treated, but only if the patient has been
screened and then has access to treat-
ment.
The county Health Department also
inspects every restaurant and business
that sells food at least once a year. We
publish the inspection results weekly
in the Erie Times-News and on GoErie.
These inspections give Erie residents
peace of mind when they dine out. Its
also reassuring to know that vendors at
Eries many fairs and festivals have fol-
lowed proper food-safety procedures.
We are going through all of our
programs and services and making a
determination about how we can pro-
vide basic services. We will de-
nitely be cutting or restricting some
programs, Andy Glass, director of the
county Health Department, said when
Erie County Council discussed the
impact of the funding cuts.
These steep cuts require the atten-
tion of our legislative delegation to
Harrisburg as well as Erie County of-
cials. Public health is everybodys busi-
ness.

Since his death in
1951, Sgt. Bernard
Fisher has roamed
half the globe.
Killed while
repositioning in a
delaying maneuver
against a erce
enemy attack
near Seoul, South
Korea, Fishers
remains initially
rested somewhere
in the eld for
six months, until a U.S.
unit recovered remains of
four men. Unidentied,
they were transferred to
Tanggok, South Korea,
then to Japan, then to
Hawaii.
For all that time, Fisher,
a Wilkes-Barre native with
squared jaw and curved-up
coif, remained Missing in
Action and presumed dead.
It wasnt until last year, fol-
lowing one more exhuma-
tion, that the government
determined it had found
Fisher, and could give him
a nal burial.
That burial occurred July
27, with the Army relaying
a family request to be left
alone in their grief. I wrote
all this in a July 12 story.
After the story ran,
Sgt. Fishers brother and
sister-in-law, Ken and
Marina Fisher, stopped by
the paper to thank
me for the coverage,
to share a few addi-
tional insights about
Sgt. Fisher, and to
promise an update
after the burial. They
fullled that promise
with a letter, a photo
and a phone call.
Marina said people
who graduated from
St. Marys High
School with Sgt.
Fisher had joined forces
and arranged to have a
Catholic Mass held in his
name at St. Mary of the
Immaculate Conception
Church, Wilkes-Barre.
During the Aug. 24
Mass they presented
an American ag to the
church, complete with a
brass stand and plaque that
commemorates Sgt. Fisher,
class of 47.
Marina also offered a
poem she wrote, an ode
to a man who died at the
age of 21, and spent nearly
triple that time wending
his way to a nal, tting
resting place in Arlington
National Cemetery.
Her homage concludes
with a quote from rst-cen-
tury Roman poet Horace.
Its the title and most
famous line of an ode writ-
ten to spur fellow citizens
to defend
Rome.
The line
fell out of
favor after
the horrors
of World
War I, par-
ticularly
after Wilfred Owen used
it mockingly in his own
poem about gas attacks
in the trenches, prefacing
Horaces line with The old
lie:
But it seems clear that
Horaces original intent
truly applies here. Sgt.
Fisher did not merely die
defending fellow soldiers
and his country. He died
in a war that country
never ofcially declared.
For decades he was not
ofcially dead, his remains
found but deemed uniden-
tiable, his family denied
true closure.
Sgt. Bernard Fishers
brief life, heroic death and
epic journey home make
him a truly exceptional
defender of our freedoms.
Marinas poem:
The Final Homecoming
On a sultry summer day
in Arlington, Virginia, The
funeral cortege pauses.
Rising above the cemetery
entrance are statues of
eagles, reminiscent of our
own Market Street Bridge.
A long way and the
Honor Guard, with utmost
precision, transfers the
ag-draped casket to cais-
son.
Thirty-eight family mem-
bers begin the walk behind
the warrior, about to arrive
at his nal resting place.
Sixty-two years later, after
being declared Missing
in Action on January 1,
1951, at the age of 21, Sgt.
Bernard J. Fisher comes
home via a very circuitous
route.
The Army band plays
a Catholic hymn and the
chaplain says prayers com-
mitting his body to the
earth. The ag is folded
and presented to a family
member along with other
tributes.
Bernie, you fought the
good ght; you nished
the race; and you will be
awarded the prize, which
the Lord will give you on
the last day.
Dulce et decorum est pro
patria mori
It is sweet and right to
die for your country.

PennEnvironment contends green-
house gas emissions cause this collec-
tive warming.
Scientists predict that extreme
weather events will become more fre-
quent and severe for future generations,
unless we act now to cut the pollution
that is fueling the problem, Corby said
in a prepared statement. Americas
dirtiest power plants are the elephant
in the room when it comes to global
warming.
Evidence of climate change became
real this year by way of hot spells and
ash ooding in the state, and were
approaching the one-year anniversary
mark for Hurricane Sandy, whichstruck
the New York/New Jersey coastline last
October, Corby said. These meteorolog-
ical oddities are all symptoms of human-
assisted global warming, she said.
Corby called for legislators to tighten
controls on emissions for old coal-red
power plants and better construc-
tion standards for new plants. He said
they chose to speak at Caseys ofce
because he is in a good place to support
President Barack Obamas power-plant
control efforts as legislators and the fed-
eral Environmental Protection Agency
are moving to set newstandards for old
and planned power plants this year.
(Casey) has yet to come out in
support of President Obamas plan to
limit pollution from existing and future
power plants, Corby said. We hope
that the senator will be able to take a
strong stance on climate in the future.
We want him to be a champion for the
climate.
In an email message, a spokesman
for Casey said the senator believes the
energy issue calls for balance.
Pennsylvania is one of the coun-
trys top energy producers and (Casey)
believes that our state can lead the way
in reducing our reliance on foreign oil
and promoting clean energy, the state-
ment said.
Casey believes the nations energy
portfolio should be diverse, including
both renewable and fossil-based fuels,
but he recognizes the importance of
green power, the statement said.
Developing cleaner energies will
boost our economy and reduce carbon
emissions, the statement said.
Bernard McGurl, Lackawanna River
Corridor Associations executive direc-
tor, backed Corbys efforts to get legis-
lators moving toward stricter policies,
and he also urged them to seek alterna-
tive power sources.
Theres newer technologies that are
available wind power, solar power
and a variety of natural gas and clean
coal that are much more efcient
and have reduced emissions of car-
bon dioxide, McGurl said.
But Corby rejected natural gas as an
alternative, saying PennEnvironment is
not in favor of exploration because of its
contested side effects.
Just looking how its produced and
how its transported, often (leaking
methane) gas along the way, completely
nullies anyadvantage we wouldexpect
to see in terms of global warming pollu-
tion, so we dont think natural gas is a
solution, Corby said.

WASHINGTON
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta on
Tuesday said given the
chance, he would vote
against an attack on Syria.
Barletta, R-Hazleton,
said based on infor-
mation he has, both
publicly disclosed
information and
classied, an attack
on Syria would
have two devastat-
ing results: the U.S.
would be drawn
into a war it could
not get out of and a retali-
ative attack would happen
here at home.
Barletta said he has
attended several briengs
and he was hoping to hear
something to make him
want to support President
Obamas plan. He said
there is no vote scheduled
in the U.S. House.
I left the meetings with
more questions and fears
that a strike in Syria would
cause retaliation right here
at home, Barletta said.
They tried to reassure
us that there would be no
boots on the ground, but
there were no assurances
that, upon retaliation by
Syria, that we would not
be drawn into war.
The U.S. should not
strike Syria alone without
a coalition of allies,
he said. He said
calls to his ofces
have overwhelm-
ingly opposed
attacking Syria.
This has by far
been the most one-
sided issue since
been in Congress,
he said.
Im still not convinced
that there is a clear cut
plan after the attack and
moving forward, he said.
I dont believe the U.S.
should act as the worlds
policeman and go into a
war alone.
Barletta said he is not
certain the House will ever
vote on the issue.
If we do vote, I will vote
no, he said.
On Tuesday, Barletta
used a hearing before
the full House Homeland
Security Committee to
raise questions of border
security and its relation
to a potential terrorist
attack in retaliation for any
American military action
in Syria.
We know theres a
signicant presence
of Hezbollah in Latin
America. We know our
borders are open. How real
is the possibility of Iran
engaging in retaliation in
the United States through
its Hezbollah proxies in
Latin America? he said.
For Congress to approve
a military action, he
said, a compelling argu-
ment must be proven that
national security interests
are immediately at stake,
or that a failure to attack
would cause the U.S. harm
in the near future.
I nd neither to be the
case, Barletta said. I do
not believe that President
Obama has adequately
made the case for me to
vote to send our men and
women into harms way.

What thEYrE saYIng
Here is what other federal elected ofcials are saying
about the situation with Syria:
U.s. rep. Matt Cartwright, D-Moosic: At this point
Imundecided and still collecting information and input
fromthe intelligence community and constituents. I
have approached the subject of military action in Syria
with a healthy amount of skepticismand I aminterested
in hearing the administration make the case for action.
U.s. sen. Bob Casey, D-scranton: As the facts
come in, a clear and convincing case is being made
that the U.S. cant just walk away without taking action
against the Syrian regime of Bashar al-Assad. You have
to consider the gravity of the crime against humanity. .

with Donald Kinney Jr.,
16, in Nanticoke, and they
were on their way to the
girls house after she invited
them to hang out, accord-
ing to arrest papers.
While talking to Duda
on the phone, the girl alleg-
edly told police, she heard
Kinney tell Duda to slow
down, and then heard the
crash that claimed the life of
Nicholas Zurilla, 59, in front
of Zurillas house at 340 W.
Union St.
Zurilla was thrown
through the Fords wind-
shield, knocking Kinney
unconscious. Limbs were
severed from Zurillas body,
arrest papers say.
Kinney was treated for
facial injuries at Geisinger
Wyoming Valley Medical
Center, police said.
The Ford careened out of
control and struck a parked
vehicle which slammed
into two other parked cars
and came to a stop 115
yards away against the front
porch at 409 W. Union St.
The girl kept the phone
open listening for 40 min-
utes after the fatal crash,
according to the complaint.
A state police reconstruc-
tion of the crash alleges
Duda was traveling in
excess of 70 mph when he
struck Zurilla, arrest papers
say. The speedlimit onWest
Union Street is 25 mph.
Duda was arraigned
by District Judge Donald
Whittaker on charges of
homicide by vehicle, third-
degree murder, accidents
involving death, driving
without a license, speeding,
reckless driving and failing
to stay in lane.
Duda had no comment
when he was escorted to his
arraignment and returned
to the police department.
Hes a good boy, he
would give you the shirt off
your back, said a woman
who refused to give her
name at Dudas arraign-
ment. She said she is a rela-
tive of Dudas and said he
attends Dallas High School.
This incident is a trag-
edy that has already unnec-
essarily taken one life
affecting the victims entire
family, Salavantis said in a
news release. It will doubt-
lessly forever change the
lives of (Duda) and his fam-
ily.
Zurilla had been sitting
on the porch of his neigh-
bor, Paul Murphy, at 341
W. Union St. As Murphy
was about to enter his
house, Zurilla was cross-
ing the street and said
in a loud voice, This
car is going to hit me,
according to arrest papers.
Murphy turned around
and had seen a car, and
a body in front of it going
directly upward and to the
left, arrest papers say.
A preliminary hearing is
scheduled for Sept. 20.

vances that are simple and
powerful, Bloomberg said
as he and then-Gov. George
Pataki announced the plans
in 2002.
For years, the ceremo-
nies did include politicians
reading names and texts,
and Bloomberg made
remarks that over the years
touched on Hurricane
Katrina, the 2005 London
subway bombings and the
Biblical King Davids grief
at the death of his son
Absolom, among other
topics.
Bloombergs role hasnt
always been comfortable,
especially for a mayor
whose brisk, pragmatic
personality and early criti-
cisms of the memorial
struck some victims rela-
tives as insensitive.
When the ceremony was
shifted to nearby Zuccotti
Park in 2007 because of
rebuilding at the trade cen-
ter site, some victims rela-
tives threatened to boycott
the occasion.
The lead-up to the
10th anniversary brought
pressure to invite more
political gures and to
include clergy in the
ceremony. And when
Bloomberg mentioned the
idea of ending the name-
reading the next year,
some of the relatives were
aghast.
By next years anni-
versary, Bloomberg will
be out of ofce, and the
museum is expected to be
open beneath the memorial
plaza.
While the memorial
honors those killed, the
museum is intended to
present a broader picture
of 9/11, including the
experiences of survivors
and rst responders.
But the organizers expect
they will always keep the
focus on the families on
the anniversary, Daniels
said. We see ourselves as
carrying on a legacy.

with Russia and China to
explore the proposal that
wouldcall for the destruction
of Syrias chemical weapons.
France said it would pro-
pose a resolution that would
include a requirement that
those responsible for an Aug.
21 alleged chemical weap-
ons attack in a Damascus
suburb be referred to the
International Criminal Court
for trial.
Obamaworkedanewtotry
torally support froma skepti-
cal nation for military action
against Syria, even if that is
nowmore to proda deal than
an imminent threat. He said
that U.S. armed forces would
remain on standby, ready to
strike if necessary.
America is not the
worlds policeman, he said.
Terrible things happen
across the globe, and it is
beyond our means to right
every wrong, but when with
modest effort and risk we
can stop children from being
gassed to death and thereby
make our own children safer
over the long run, I believe
we should act.
He added, I know that
after the terrible toll of Iraq
and Afghanistan the idea of
any military action no matter
how limited is not going to
be popular.
Earlier Tuesday, Obama
told Democratic and
Republican senators in
separate closed-door meet-
ings that they should post-
pone any vote on the use
of force until negotiations
with Russia and Syria are
exhausted. He did not lay
out a timetable in his conver-
sations with lawmakers or in
his address.
Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid, D-Nev., already
had postponed a Wednesday
vote in the Senate as an
increasing number of law-
makers expressed opposition
to the use-of-force proposal
and support for diplomatic
negotiations. But Reid said
Tuesday that the U.S. should
not withdraw possible mili-
tary intervention which
he said led to Syrias willing-
ness to negotiate especial-
ly given Syrias extremely
lowlevel of credibility.
The days events were a
sharp change from Monday,
when the Obama administra-
tion had been pressing for-
ward with an aggressive lob-
bying campaign to persuade
lawmakers andthe American
people to back a proposal to
use military force in Syria
despite pending negotiations
with Russia on its proposals.
The diplomatic door has
opened ever so slightly, and
while I have doubts about
this eleventh-hour offer, it
would be wrong to slam
the door shut without due
consideration, Sen. Robert
Menendez, D-N.J., chair-
man of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, said
after Obamas speech. A
negotiated solution to a cri-
sis is always preferable and if
this possibility is legitimate,
Ill give it serious thought. At
the same time, the credible
use of military force is neces-
sary to keep on the table.
I appreciate the compli-
cated issues the president
faces, said Sen. Chuck
Grassley, R- Iowa. Still, I
dont think the case for mili-
tary action has been made.
Military action should be
the last resort, so this diplo-
matic offer, if credible and
enforceable, needs to be con-
sidered.
Testifying before the
House Armed Services
Committee, Kerry said
were waiting on the
Russian proposal, but were
not waiting long.
The president believes
we need to keep this threat,
this reality, absolutely on the
table, he said. He wants the
Congress to act.
The White House
announced Tuesday that
more countries signed a
statement on the need to
reinforce the prohibition
against the use of chemi-
cal weapons. Thirty-three
nations now support the
statement. The statement
does not endorse military
action against Syria.
Chinese reaction to the
developments was also favor-
able. A Chinese Foreign
Ministry spokesman, Hong
Lei, said in Beijing that the
proposal can help ease the
current tension in Syria,
solve the Syrian issue politi-
cally and safeguard the peace
and stability of Syria and the
whole region.
France, the only country
that had said it would join
the United States in a mili-
tary strike on Syria, said it
would support the Russian
proposal. But French Foreign
Minister Laurent Fabius
attached three conditions:
that Assad agree to place
his entire chemical weapons
arsenal under international
control and allow it to be
destroyed, that the operation
be conducted quickly under
a binding U.N. resolution,
and that those responsible
for the attacks be referred to
the International Criminal
Court.

Mike Hull returned to practice
Tuesday. For Penn State, the timing
couldnt have been better.
The dynamic linebacker spent much
of last week resting his sprained knee,
sitting out the Nittany Lions win over
Eastern Michigan.
Theyll very much need him back this
week.
Penn State coach Bill OBrien said
Hull is expected to play Saturday against
Central Florida, the toughest opponent
on the Lions non-conference schedule.
Hull made a name for himself last sea-
son by helping the Lions improve their
pass defense after the team struggled
to get off the eld on third downs dur-
ing an 0-2 start. His speed and coverage
abilities will be especially important
against UCF and standout quarterback
Blake Bortles.
This season, the Lions have opened
2-0 despite barely having Hull at all. The
junior went down in the rst quarter of
the opener against Syracuse and briey
returned after a trip to the locker room
before being shut down for the second
half.

No, really.
Kellys hurry-up offense sparkled in his NFL
debut as the Eagles opened the season with
a 33-27 win over the defending NFC East-
champion Washington Redskins on Monday
night.
Michael Vick and Co. executed Kellys dont-
stop-for-a-breath offense with precision and
efciency, running 53 plays in the rst half and
racking up 443 total yards. While the rest of
the league and a national television audience
watched in awe the way the Eagles moved at
lightning speed, Kelly sees room for improve-
ment.
I felt like it was slow, to be honest with you,
Kelly said Tuesday. Im not joking. Weve got
to do a better job. We left the ball on the ground
too much. We didnt get the ball to the ofcials.
We could have sped things up from a process
between plays. Thats something we need to
continue to work on.
It looked like Kelly was still coaching Oregon
against Pac-10 opponents in the rst half. The
Eagles controlled the ball 20:20 and averaged
2.6 plays per minute. They outgained RG3 and
the Redskins 322-75, had a 21-3 edge in rst
downs and led 26-7.
Still, it was the rst real test for Philadelphia
under Kelly. Theres still a learning process and
players should get more familiar with the way
he wants the offense to move as they gain expe-
rience in it.
I saw a team play their rst game, Kelly
said. I was pleased, but we still have got a lot
of work to do. Theres so many things we can

SECTION B
Bowyer denies intentional spinout at Richmond race
JENNA FRYER
APAuto Racing Writer
CONCORD, N.C.
Clint Bowyer feels awful
for costing Ryan Newman
a win, though his apology
for spinning at Richmond
is not an admission of guilt.
Ryan Newman also feels
terrible. Only his sympathy
is for Martin Truex Jr., the
unwitting participant in a
botched race-xing attempt
by Michael Waltrip Racing
that has put two friends
in an awkward position
and spoiled the start of
NASCARs championship
race.
I feel bad for Martin, and
I feel he didnt know any-
thing about it and he had
the carpet ripped out from
underneath him, Newman
told The Associated Press
on Tuesday. And I know
exactly how that feels.
Its been a roller-coaster
for NASCAR since there
were seven laps to go in
Saturday nights race at
Richmond. Newman was
on his way to a victory that
would have given him the
nal spot in the 12-driver
Chase for the Sprint Cup
championship eld. Then
Bowyer spun to bring out
a caution, setting in motion
a chain of events that cost
Newman the win and the
Chase berth, cost Jeff
Gordon a Chase berth and
put Truex and Joey Logano
in the nal two spots.
There were way too
many questions about the
nal moments of the race
and NASCAR launched an
investigation, determining
Monday that MWR had
manipulated the outcome
of the race and levying
unprecedented sanctions
that put Newman in the
Chase and bumped Truex
out. MWR was also ned
$300,000, general manager
Ty Norris was suspend-
ed indenitely, Bowyer,
Truex and Brian Vickers
were docked 50 points
each, and their crew chiefs
were placed on probation
through the end of the year.
Bowyer, previously
scheduled to spend the day
at ESPN, denied the spin
was deliberate. In his rst
interview, he said he had
apologized to Newman in a
phone call for bringing out
a caution while Newman
was leading, but said it was
racer protocol for costing
Newman a win.
Asked specically if the
apology was an admission
of guilt, Bowyer said: Lets
not dig too much into this.
The topic was covered
again in a second appear-
ance, and Bowyer denied
deliberately spinning.
No, he said. Anytime
something happens on the
race track, its unfortunate.
If I had a crystal ball and
could have told you every-
thing lined up just perfectly
the way it did, theres no
way you could do all that
math and know everything
that happened.
Bowyer also revealed
he had poison oak all over
his arm from cutting a tree
down last week when asked
about his team allegedly
talking in code during the
race. His crew chief had
inquired about his arm
right before he spun, at one

and try to salvage his season.
Year 2 of
girls fall
soccer is
underway
JAY MONAHAN
For The Times Leader
The Wyoming Valley
Conference fall soccer
experiment was interesting,
to say the least.
Last season was the rst
time WVC teams joined
the rest of the state and the
Lackawanna Conference in
playing in the fall, creating
a fury of interesting dynam-
ics. For starters, conference
ofcials were unsure of the
retention rate of players
better known as the eld
hockey effect would have
on the sport.
In the end, only GAR
dropped its girls soccer pro-
gram and the most of the
league suffered minimal ros-
ter drops due to the season
change. The result, how-
ever, was the creation of a
cluttered lump of a singular,
16 team division (in hope-
fully its last season). The
disparity between the top
soccer clubs and the bottom
tier left countless blowouts
and very few close games.
Needless to say, scoring was
at an all-time high.
The traditional girls soc-
cer powers Berwick,
Dallas, Coughlin contin-
ued on to district playoffs
while some new faces
Holy Redeemer, Wyoming

Penn State head coach Bill OBrien speaks during his weekly press conference, Tuesday in State
College.
OBrien prepares to
face former mentor
By DEREK LEVARSE
dlevarse@timesleader.com
Bill OBriens coaching career was
more or less launched by a phone call
from George OLeary to Jim Bernhardt.
Do you know anybody thats smart
enough to get into graduate school at
Georgia Tech and dumb enough to want
to coach? said OLeary, who was taking
over as head coach of the Yellow Jackets.
I got just the guy for you, said
Bernhardt, who was OBriens position
coach at Brown.
Its a story OBrien has told a few
times since taking over at Penn State,
including on Tuesday at his weekly
press conference. Its one of the more
important moments in his career.
That call eventually led to OBrien,
who had been working as a linebackers
coach at his alma mater, to OLearys
staff and the world of major college foot-
ball.
That he is now the head of his own
program, preparing to face OLearys
Central Florida squad on Saturday,
is thanks in part to the mentoring he
received while at Georgia Tech.
I have a fantastic relationship with
Coach OLeary, said OBrien, who
coached under OLeary from 1995-2001
at Tech. I think that probably I took
two big lessons from him in coaching
that Ive always kept with me.
One was organization. He was a very
organized guy. There wasnt a wasted
moment during the day, and that had
a lot to do with work ethic. We worked
extremely hard, all of us did, when we
worked for him. He demanded that of
us. So I learned a lot about that.
And then I just learned about how
important the physical toughness, resil-
iency of your football team is. Thats a
very important characteristic of a good
football team. And when you dont have
that, then youre going to struggle. But
when you have that, when you have a
physical, resilient, tough football team,
then youve got a chance to win games.
OBrien has done plenty of that, using
his experience under OLeary to eventu-
ally land a spot with the New England
Patriots before coming to Penn State.
Billy I thought came up through the
ranks the right way, OLeary said. He
learned. He got better, he got better
and he continued to get better. It didnt
suprise me that hes had the success he
had at New England, the success he had
when I was at Georgia Tech with him.
That bond with his former boss
helped put together this series between
the Knights and Nittany Lions.
Penn State needed a last-minute
replacement for Virginia, which bailed
out of its trip to Happy Valley in favor
of hosting Oregon last week. And the
Lions were also looking for a unique
destination for players and fans who
have no trips to bowl games for the next
few years.
Voila. The coach-to-coach connection

NATIONAL LEAGUE ROUNDUP
AMERICAN LEAGUE ROUNDUP
NEW YORK Jayson
Werth kept up his power
surge with a home run
and two doubles, leading
the charging Washington
Nationals past the New York
Mets 6-3 on Tuesday night
for their fourth straight win.
Jordan Zimmermann
wound up with his
NL-leading 17th victory and
Rafael Soriano closed for his
40th save as Washington
tries to make a late playoff
push.
The Nationals have won
six of seven, and have 18
games left this season. They
began the day seven games
behind Cincinnati for the
nal NL wild-card spot.
AdamLaRoche and pinch-
hitter Scott Hairston also
homered and Denard Span
extended his hitting streak
to 21 games. Catcher Wilson
Ramos threw out two run-
ners who tried to steal sec-
ond and lined an RBI single.
Werth has gone 10 for 18
during Washingtons win-
ning streak with two homers
and ve doubles. Hes scored
ve runs and driven in ve
while raising his batting aver-
age to .328.
Werth homered in con-
secutive games for the fourth
time this season. Before this
year, he had done it only
twice since joining the Nats
in 2011.
Zimmermann (17-8)
topped the Mets for the rst
timeinvestarts this season.
He gave up three runs and
eight hits inve-plus innings.
Zimmermann, Colorados
Jorge De La Rosa and St.
Louis Adam Wainwright all
started the day with 16 wins.
Detroits Max Scherzer tops
the majors with 19.
Relievers Craig Stammen,
Drew Storen, Tyler Clippard
and Soriano combined
for four scoreless innings.
Soriano reached 40 saves for
his third team, having done
it with Tampa Bay and the
NewYork Yankees.
Werth hit his 23rd homer
in the rst and LaRoche led
off the second with his 19th.
Both homers sailed into the
Party City Deck above the
wall in left-center eld, and
LaRoches drive was caught
on the y by a fan wearing a
Mets jersey.
Padres 8, Phillies 2
PHILADELPHIA Jedd
Gyorko and Chase Headley
each had three hits to back
Andrew Cashners strong
pitching in San Diegos vic-
tory. Gyorko, who entered in
a 3-for-28 slide, scored three
runs and drove in another.
Headley added two RBIs for
the Padres, who have won
four straight andsixof seven.
Cashner (9-8) earned his
rst victory since Aug. 2,
throwing 7 2-3 masterful
innings while limiting the
Phillies to four hits and a
walk. He matched a season
high with seven strikeouts
and retired his rst 11 bat-
ters before giving up a dou-
ble to Chase Utley.
Cashner had allowed just
one run in his previous two
outings but did not get a
decision in either one.
Philadelphia had won
three in a row.
The Padres, who had
13 hits, struck early with
Headleys RBI single in the
rst inning.
They added three runs in
the fourth on an RBI double
by Ronny Cedeno and a two-
run double by Rene Rivera.
In the fth, San Diego
scored four runs on six sin-
gles, including ve in a row
to open the inning. Six hits
in one inning tied a season
high.
Cedeno and Kyle Blanks
nishedwith two hits apiece.
Cody Asche hit his fth
home run in the fth inning
for the Phillies rst run. The
homer was Asches third in
six games.
Phillies starter Tyler Cloyd
(2-4) was not sharp in his
rst major league start in
three weeks. The right-
hander allowed seven runs
and nine hits over four-plus
innings. He struck out four
and walked none.
Braves 4, Marlins 3
MIAMI Julio Teheran,
working on 10 days rest,
overcame a rough rst
inning and pitched into the
seventh to help the Braves to
the victory.
Teheran (12-7) gave
up three runs in the rst,
then none after that, and
he left with a 4-3 lead. Luis
Ayala came on to strike out
Giancarlo Stanton with
the bases loaded to end the
seventh, and Craig Kimbrel
pitched around a one-out
double by Placido Polanco
in the ninth for his major-
league-leading 46th save in
49 chances.
Pinch-runner Jake
Marisnick made the nal out
trying to advance to third
when a pitch by Kimbrel got
past catcher Brian McCann.
Atlanta went 3 for 16 with
runners in scoring position,
but Evan Gattis had his third
straight two-RBI game.

fielders choice hit by Donovan Solano as Atlanta Braves shortstop
Andrelton Simmons (19) throws to first during the first inning of
a Tuesdays game in Miami. The Marlins Giancarlo Stanton scored
on the play.
BALTIMORE Alfonso
Soriano hit two home runs,
including a tiebreaking shot
in the eighth inning, and the
New York Yankees rallied
past the Baltimore Orioles
7-5 Tuesday night to end
a six-game losing streak at
Camden Yards.
Mark Reynolds also hom-
ered for the Yankees, who
won for the second time in
six games to bolster their
postseason hopes. New
York still trails Tampa Bay,
Baltimore and Cleveland
in the hunt for the nal AL
wild-card slot.
Chris Davis hit his major
league-leading 49th home
run for the Orioles and
raised his RBI total to 126.
Baltimore led 4-1 in the fth
inning before faltering.
Soriano and Reynolds
launched the comeback with
solo homers in the sixth off
Baltimore starter Miguel
Gonzalez.
Alex Rodriguez led off the
eighth with a double against
rookie Kevin Gausman (2-5)
and Robinson Cano deliv-
ered an RBI single. Soriano
followed with a two-run shot
to center, his 15th homer in
43 games since New York
reacquired him in a July
26 trade with the Chicago
Cubs. The victory was man-
ager Joe Girardis 556th
with the Yankees, tying Billy
Martin for sixth place on the
franchise list.
Angels 12, Blue Jays 6
TORONTO Mark
Trumbo matched a team
record with four extra-
base hits, including back-
to-back home runs with
Josh Hamilton, and Chris
Iannetta and Erick Aybar
also went deep as Los
Angeles beat Toronto.
Trumbo had a career-best
ve hits and became the rst
player in Angels history to
collect ve hits and score
ve runs in the same game.
He went 5 for 5 with three
doubles and two RBIs as the
Angels won for the eighth
time in 11 meetings with the
Blue Jays.
Red Sox 2, Rays 0
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
Clay Buchholz allowed
three hits over ve innings in
his rst start since early June
and the AL East-leading Red
Sox beat the Rays.
Buchholz (10-0), sidelined
by a strained neck, hadnt
pitched in the majors since
beating the Los Angeles
Angels on June 8. The right-
hander, who made three
rehab starts in the minors,
struck out Jose Molina with
two on to end the second.
Jonny Gomes and Jarrod
Saltalamacchia both drove in
a run for the Red Sox, who
extended their lead over
second-place Tampa Bay to
8 1/2 games in the East.
Royals 6, Indians 3
CLEVELAND Jeremy
Guthrie got a major assist
from his defense in pitching
six innings, Alcides Escobar
hit a rare home run and the
Kansas City Royals snapped
a six-game losing streak in
Cleveland, 6-3 on Tuesday
night to close on the Indians
and two others in the ALs
cramped wild-card scram-
ble.

NEW YORK Mets ace
Matt Harveys ailing elbowis
feeling better, and the right-
hander said Tuesday he is
still optimistic he can avoid
reconstructive surgery that
would likely sideline him for
all of next season.
Harvey will visit Dr. James
Andrews on Monday before
deciding whether he will
undergo Tommy John sur-
gery.
Everything feels ne, my
arm feels great, the 24-year-
old right-hander said. I am
still very optimistic about
everything, but I am not a
doctor so we will see what
happens.
In his rst public com-
ments since Aug. 26, when
the Mets saidhe hada partial
ligament tear, Harvey said he
hasnt yet had a second MRI
to determine the best course
of action going forward.
He has been icing his
elbowand riding a stationary
bike since he was shut down
for the season last month.
Harvey said the swelling is
down and that pain subsided
two days after he put a ball
down.
We wanted to get the sec-
ond opinion, let the swelling
settle down before we went
in and started any rehab or
anything like that, he said.
Were going to wait to see
how Monday goes with Dr.
Andrews.
I am not going to make
an immediate decision while
I amdown there.
Whether it is another
week or whatnot, I am going
to talk to as many people as
I can. If we do go the sur-
gery route, having it sooner
so maybe I can get back in
September next year its a
possibility. We havent gotten
that far.
Harvey, the All-Star game
starter for the National
League, joined Mets team-
mates David Wright and
Zack Wheeler, along with
Jeff Wilpon the teams
chief operating ofcer at
a Manhattan rehouse in
advance of the anniversary of
the Sept. 11 attacks on New
York.
Harvey was in middle
school in Connecticut on the
day the World Trade Center
was struck by hijacked airlin-
ers.

DETROIT
Ndamukong Suhs latest
controversial play drew a
hefty ne.
The Detroit defen-
sive tackle was docked
$100,000 by the NFL for
his illegal low block on
Minnesota center John
Sullivan in the Lions
season-opening victory
Sunday. Suh hit Sullivan
during an interception
return by Detroit line-
backer DeAndre Levy, and
the penalty negated what
would have been a touch-
down.
NFL spokesman Randall
Liu said Tuesday that vice
president of football opera-
tions Merton Hanks noti-
ed Suh of the ne. Suh
was not in the locker room
at Detroits practice facil-
ity when it was open to
reporters Tuesday. A text
message was sent to him
seeking comment.
Suh said Sunday he
wasnt goingafter Sullivans
knees, adding that the two
had discussed the play at
halftime. Detroit players
said Suh apologized to the
team Tuesday.
He just basically said
that he cant make those
types of mistakes he
cant put us in a position
where weve got to battle
back from mistakes like
that, wide receiver Nate
Burleson said.
Its believed to be the
largest ne for an NFL
player for an on-eld viola-
tion, although suspensions
without pay can result in
bigger nancial hits.

PITTSBURGH
Mike Tomlin stressed to
Jonathan Dwyer when the
coach cut the Pittsburgh
Steelers running back 10
days ago that the decision
to release the teams lead-
ing rusher in 2012 was not
a personal one.
We kept the guys that we
kept because of the things
they did, not because of the
things Jonathan didnt do,
Tomlin said.
No hard feelings, appar-
ently.
Dwyer practically sprint-
ed to the teams practice
facility after the Steelers
re-signed him on Monday.
A day before, the Steelers
lost LaRod Stephens-
Howling for the season
due to a knee injury.
While allowing it may take
Dwyer a day or two to get
back up to speed, Tomlin
didnt rule out Dwyer play-
ing a signicant role when
Pittsburgh (0-1) travels
to Cincinnati (0-1) next
Monday night.
I dont anticipate that
being a major problem,
Tomlin said, but well play
it by ear and see how he
looks on the practice eld
and in the classroom.
Dwyers presence
couldnt hurt after the
Steelers managed just 32
yards on 15 carries in an
uninspired 16-9 loss to
Tennessee last week. Isaac
Redman lost two fumbles
and ran for just nine yards
on eight carries while Felix
Jones who surprisingly
beat out Dwyer for the nal
roster spot spent most
of the day on the sidelines.
Tomlin insisted he
remains condent in
Redmans ability as a
starter while rookie
LeVeon Bell recovers
from a sprained right foot.
Center Maurkice Pouncey
will undergo surgery on
Thursday to repair torn
knee ligaments in his right
knee and wont play until
2014 after teammate David
DeCastro fell on him less
than 5 minutes into the
game.
Losing Pouncey was
a blow to the group, not
only in terms of what hes
capable of, but emotion-
ally, the manner in which
it happened, Tomlin said.
The Steelers signed vet-
eran Fernando Velasco on
Monday but utility line-
man Kelvin Beachum will
get the rst shot at replac-
ing perhaps the most irre-
placeable player on the ros-
ter. In addition to being a
captain, Pouncey made the
blocking calls at the line of
scrimmage and served as
the big brother to a group
lled with second and
third-year guys.
Now the group will have
to go it alone while also
bringing Velasco up to
speed. Titans coach Mike
Munchak said Velasco will
do great. At the moment,
merely doing OK would
be an improvement for a
group rattled by one of the
more miserable openers in
recent memory.

Steelers running back Jonathan Dwyer (27), seen in a preseason
game against the Panthers and Josh Norman (24), was cut by
the Steelers before the season, but was re-signed by the team on
Monday.
ASHBURN, Va. At least theres a
ready-made excuse to be made for Robert
Grifn III. He was coming off a knee injury,
was rusty after sitting out the preseason
and perhaps was a bit too psyched for his
own good.
His teammates cant say the same. The
Washington Redskins came out of the
gate unfocused and off-kilter in their sea-
son opener, deserting the fundamentals of
sound football. Dropped passes. Penalties.
Turnovers. Missed assignments. By the
time they woke up, they were 26 points
behind in the third quarter.
What a letdown. After their franchise
player spent an entire offseason talking
about howhe was all in for Week 1, all the
Redskins got out of the season opener was a
bunch of garbage-time points in a 33-27 loss
to the Philadelphia Eagles.
Thats whats really disappointing about
last night, linebacker Ryan Kerrigan said
Tuesday, is we had a good game plan going
in, and they didnt throwanything at us that
we hadnt seen, but they out-executed us.
Its easy to say the Redskins drew a short
straw, facing a fast-paced Eagles offense
making its NFL debut under coach Chip
Kelly, but coach Mike Shanahan said his
team essentially knew what was coming.
Theres only one play we saw that we
didnt practice against, Shanahan said.
Besides, the Redskins offense should
have feasted on an overhauled Eagles
defense. There were also intangibles that
should have worked in Washingtons favor:
a home game on a Monday night, returning
as NFC East champions against a division
rival that went 4-12 last year.
Redskins cant explain
their collective letdown

SI: Oklahoma St. players paid for play
Magazine details payments in frst of fve-part series on program
STILLWATER, Okla.
Boosters and assistant coaches
at Oklahoma State handed out
tens of thousands of dollars to
players for at least a decade
as the program grew into a
national power under coach-
es Les Miles and then Mike
Gundy, according to a Sports
Illustrated article released
Tuesday.
The article, which quoted
several former players by name,
said some players received
$2,000 to $10,000 annually,
with a few stars receiving
$25,000 or more. Eight play-
ers told SI they received cash,
while 29 others were named by
teammates as taking money.
The transgressions cited
stretched from 2001 until at
least 2011, the magazine said.
Oklahoma State said it has
notied the NCAA about the
report and launched its own
investigation.
Sports Illustrated said its
ve-part series included inter-
views with more than 60 for-
mer players who played for
Oklahoma State from 2001-10.
Among the allegations of mis-
conduct and potential NCAA
violations are:
An Oklahoma State assis-
tant coach, Joe DeForest, paid
cash bonuses to players of up
to $500 for performance.
Boosters and assistant
coaches funneled money to
players and provided sham jobs
for which players were paid.
Tutors and school person-
nel completed school work for
players and professors gave
passing grades for little or no
work.
The programs drug policy
was selectively enforced, allow-
ing some players to go unpun-
ished for repeated positive
tests.
Some members of a host-
ess program used by the foot-
ball coaching staff had sex with
recruits.
NCAA rules bar boosters
from providing cash or other
benets based on athletic
performance. NCAA spokes-
woman Emily Potter declined
comment when asked about
Oklahoma State, citing the
organizations longstanding
policy.
SI reported that eight for-
mer Cowboys told the maga-
zine they had received cash
paymentsand 29 others were
named by teammates as having
also taken money.
Former player Calvin
Mickens said he was handed
cash in the locker room by a
stranger after Oklahoma States
2005 season-opening victory, a
game in which he played well.
I was like, Wow, this is the
life! Mickens told SI. Im 18,
playing football and I just got
$200.
He said he got money at other
times, including $800 later that
season after the game at Texas
A&M, and saw teammates get-
ting similar handouts. Former
defensive tackle Brad Girtman
said he saw some star players
get monster payments, while
he once received $500 from a
member of the football staff.
Miles has said he didnt know
of any improprieties while he
was the Oklahoma State coach.
I can tell you this: We have
always done things right, he
said after LSUs game Saturday
night in Baton Rouge, La.

Aggies
brace for
Round 2
Heisman winner Manziel
quiet as Bama game
approaches
KRISTIE RIEKEN
AP Sports Writer
COLLEGE STATION, Texas
Everything went right for
No. 6 Texas A&M in last years
upset of top-ranked Alabama
that helped launch Johnny
Manziels run to the Heisman
Trophy.
As the
Aggies pre-
pare for the
rematch, they
insist its
just another
game, saying
it so much it
almost seems as if they are try-
ing to convince themselves.
But no matter how much
they repeat the sentiment thats
being fed to them by coach
Kevin Sumlin and the rest of
the staff, everyone knows that
it isnt just another game. Its
arguably the biggest game in
the programs history.
As much as Sumlin tries to
downplay the hype surround-
ing this week, even those in his
family arent buying that its
business as usual. He said his
9- and 11-year-old sons watch
television and see all the satel-
lite trucks parked near the sta-
dium.
They recognize how big
things are, he said with a
laugh.
Things have changed dras-
tically for the Aggies since
last years meeting with the
two-time defending national
champion. The biggest dif-
ference is the focus on their
captivating Heisman Trophy-
winning quarterback. Interest
in Manziel has reached such a
fever pitch that CBS will have
a camera focused solely on him
for the entirety of Saturdays
game, which theyve dubbed
the Johnny Cam.
Sumlin understands the extra
attention paid to Manziel. But
he certainly doesnt like it.
Everything that we do
here at Texas A&M is about
team and its about building
our team, building our pro-
gram and not the individual,
Sumlin said. Saturday after-
noon youre going to have two
football teams, and I just dont
understand why theres got to
be one guy singled out with a
camera.
Manziel spoke after
Saturdays win over Sam
Houston State for the rst time
since SEC media day. Many
expected him to talk about
Alabama on Tuesday, but he
was not made available. The
reason, according to Sumlin,
was out of his hands.
He and his family and his
advisors and lawyers have
advised him not to talk and
Ill respect his wishes on that,
Sumlin said.

Despite Kellys big talk in preseason,
Irish still having problems scoring touchdowns
AP photo
Notre Dame quarterback Tommy Rees talks with head coach Brian Kelly on the sideline during a break in the first
quarter of a college football game with Michigan, in Ann Arbor, Mich., on Saturday.
ND struggling in the red zone
SOUTH BEND, Ind.
Notre Dame is still struggling
to get from the red zone to the
end zone.
Coach Brian Kelly thought
the No. 21 Fighting Irish (1-1)
would improve, saying con-
dently during the preseason
that Tommy Rees would do a
better job of making decisions
that would make them more
efcient in the red zone. Last
season, they were a disappoint-
ing 70th in the nation, convert-
ing on 80 percent of their scor-
ing chances.
Two games into this season,
though, the Irish are tied for
111th in red zone offense, con-
verting on just four of seven
chances and only three were
touchdowns. Kelly said during
his weekly news conference
Tuesday that the problem is
players executing plays.
It comes down to perfor-
mance. It comes down to prac-
tice and preparation. We have
to continue to work on those
things, he said.
Kelly was clearly displeased
with Rees decision to try
to force a throw to running
back Amir Carlisle, who was
covered, late in the Michigan
game on rst-and-goal from the
6-yard line. The ball glanced
off Carlisles hands, ricocheted
off of Michigan cornerback
Raymon Taylors leg and was
intercepted in the end zone by
cornerback Blake Countess.
Earlier in the quarter, Notre
Dame receiver DaVaris Daniels
was hit by Taylor the moment a
quick pass landed in his hands,
tackled for a 2-yard loss on
third-and-2 from the Wolverine
15. Kelly decided to go for it
on fourth-and-4, but the pass
by Rees was out of reach for
the diving TJ Jones in the end
zone.
All three failed attempts
came on passes, as the Irish
called 12 passing plays in the
13 plays they had in the red
zone. Overall, the Irish passed
on 74 percent of their offensive
plays against the Wolverines.
Kelly said it was because
Michigan was forcing the Irish
to throw by placing eight men
or more near the line of scrim-
mage.
I want balance just like
everybody else in America
wants balance. But look, we
have to throw the ball effec-
tively when we are called upon
to throw the ball, and we have
to run the ball effectively when
we are called upon to run effec-
tively, he said.
Kelly said hes not worried
that other teams will try to fol-
low Michigans model and try
to force the Irish to depend on
the pass.
I wouldnt say that were
that far away from being very
efcient at it. I would welcome
it every single week. I think
were close, if not right there,
he said. I mean, were a step
away here; were an alignment
away here or there. Were a
check away. Im very confdent
that if you want to play us that
way, were going to beat you.
Kelly got a bit testy during
the news conference as he kept
getting asked about what went
wrong at Michigan, instead
of about the upcoming game
against Purdue, saying at one
point: I would like to move on
here, sooner or later.
Kelly tread carefully when
asked if he regards Purdue as a
rivalry kind of game.
Kelly answered by saying the
Irish will be focused more on
themselves this week.
I dont want to minimize the
fact that were playing Purdue,
because I think that we clearly
understand who they are as a
Big Ten opponent, somebody
within our state, and the natu-
ral rivalry because weve played
so much, he said.

AFC North
of to bad
start, 0-4
JOE KAY
APSports Writer
CINCINNATI Bengals
coach Marvin Lewis
watched a little video of
Pittsburghs season-opening
disaster and felt a kinship
with the failure.
I just watched the rst
half of their game and Im
sure they feel the same way
we do, Lewis said.
Not just them. Theyre all
feeling the blues this week
in the AFC North.
All four teams in the
NFLs most successful divi-
sion over the last ve years
have started the season at
0-1. Its only the second time
thats happened, according
to STATS LLC. The other
time? Way back in 2002,
when the league went to the
current division format.
And its not just that all
four lost, its how they lost:
The defending Super
Bowl-champion Baltimore
Ravens went back to Denver,
the scene of their improbable
playoff comeback last sea-
son, and had their revamped
defense get taken apart for
a record-seven touchdown
passes by Peyton Manning
in a 49-27 rout.
Over in Pittsburgh, the
towel-waving crowd at Heinz
Field put those towels away
and led out quietly near
the end of a shocking 16-9
loss to the Titans that was in
most ways the worst of the
divisions opening ops.
In Cleveland, the
Browns did their annual
looking-a-little-better tease
before falling apart and
losing to the Dolphins
23-10, dropping their ninth
straight opener and their
14th in the last 15 years.
Lewis team actually
looked the best of the bunch
before bungling one away
in Chicago, 24-21, with per-
sonal fouls, wasted timeouts
and turnovers.
None of them looked like
a playoff-caliber team for
very long.
Weve got a lot of work
to do, Steelers coach Mike
Tomlin said. Nobody cares
about our problems. Theyre
glad weve got them. We
need to understand that. We
need to stick together and
persevere.
The Steelers might have
the toughest go of it. They
missed out on the playoffs
last season by nishing 8-8,
unable to run the ball con-
sistently or protect quar-
terback Ben Roethlisberger.
They drafted LeVeon Bell
to boost the running game,
but he got hurt during
camp. Pittsburgh ran for
only 32 yards in the opener
and Roethlisberger was
sacked ve times.
Worse, Pro Bowl center
Maurkice Pouncey tore liga-
ments in his right knee and
linebacker Larry Foote rup-
tured his right biceps, end-
ing their seasons.
Up next: a Monday night
game in Cincinnati against
the Bengals and former
Steelers linebacker James
Harrison. Pittsburgh hasnt
opened a season 0-2 since
2002.
The Bengals looked good
in the rst half at Chicago
before reverting to their
old Bungles ways. The nal
ub was linebacker Rey
Mauaulga a team cap-
tain last season throwing
down a Bears defender after
the whistle for a penalty that
allowed Chicago to run out
the clock.

Meyers rolls past Berwick
JOHN MEDEIROS
jmedeiros@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE It was just
the start the Mohawks were look-
ing for.
Meyers scored on its rst shot
and didnt look back in a 4-0 vic-
tory over Berwick in WVC eld
hockey Tuesday.
A sigh of relief, rst-year
Meyers coach Allison Banks said
of getting a quick lead. You know
your team is up and pushing hard.
You get that goal and you want
them to keep it up.
The game was just 58 seconds
old when Bri DiMaggio set up
Michelle Chavez for a shot from
the right wing that opened the
scoring. It was the perfect spark in
a battle of two unbeaten teams in
divisional play early in the season.
It was also the goal that allowed
the Mohawks (2-0 in WVC
Division 2) to continue an unbeat-
en streak against the Bulldogs that
goes back to when the current
players were in elementary school.
It wasnt Berwicks day, but
that was set before the team bus
arrived in the city. Bulldogs (2-1)
players are battling a bug, which
combined with the sudden onset
of summer weather, sapped much
of the energy that was evident in
wins over Elk Lake and GAR in
the seasons rst week.
Our girls were just not into it,
Berwick coach Brandi Bertollo
said. We have a lot of sickness
going around. It was unfortunate
were just riddled with illness
right now.
The Mohawks struggled to
solve Berwick keeper Lizzie Dyer
despite the advantage on the eld.
Meyers had nine of the 10 penalty
corners called in the rst half and
generated 10 of the games rst 13
shots.
Finally, on a corner as time
expired in the half, Sydney Rentsch
delivered a blast off the injection
pass from Allison Berman to give
Meyers a two-goal edge.
A goal like that is just momen-
tum so much momentum enter-
ing the second half, Banks said.
Youre up 2-0 at the half. You can
play defense. Everyone gets a lift
from it.
Berman tipped a shot by Rentsch
ve minutes into the second half
for the Mohawks third goal. And
DiMaggio added a marker with a
running drive that skipped under
Dyer as she came sliding out of
the cage to challenge the shot.
Meanwhile, Berwick did its
best to regroup at halftime. Allie
Katsock and Kylene Welsh had
good chances on corners turned
aside. Alexis Steeber tipped a
drive by Mady Readler just wide
and Kasey Rood had two shots
from in front stuffed by Meyers
keeper Sabrina Robertson, who
nished with four saves.
This is going to be a team to
be reckoned with, Bertollo said.
But you have to give credit to
Meyers. They played phenomenal-
ly. You cant take anything away
from how well they played.
At one point during the balmy
second half, Berwick had eight
players at mideld waiting to
enter play as both teams substi-
tuted liberally.

*Talia Szatkowski, junior
midelder, Dallas - The

much more on Szatkowski
on offense with the gradu-
ation of Ashley Dunbar.
Played defense last season
with 14 goals and an assist
to her name.
*Mary Tona, sopho-
more forward, Coughlin
- Quickly established her-
self as a player with nesse
and goal-scoring ability for
a team that lost much of
its offense to graduation.
Netted 14 goals, eight
assists and 36 points as a
freshman.
*Tiffany Tubioli, sopho-
more sweeper, Pittston
Area - Boasts a strong
leg that creates fast-break
opportunities for the
Patriots high-scoring
offense. Generates sup-
port for Barber and Madde
Mimnaugh.
*Hayley Wilkinson,
junior goalkeeper,
Hazleton Area - Showcased
herself as the conferences
top keeper in the fall.
Made nine saves leading
to an upset victory over
Delaware Valley in the
District 2 Class 3A tour-
nament. Finished with an
average of 11.6 stops per
game, including 27 against
Lake-Lehman.
Scouting the WVC
Graduation deplet-
ed much of defending
WVC champion Berwick
Bulldogs, and they are
left without the likes of
last years player of the
year Kelly Sheptock. The
Bulldogs are still intact
with experience, led by
junior Brianna Floryshak
and a defense that let up
three goals in 15 regular
season games a 0.2
goals-against average.
Berwick did not trail for
its rst 17 games.
Dallas is without its lead-
ing scorer but still brings a
number of scoring options
in Talia Szatkowski,
Wendy Greenwood and
Ashley Strazdus.
Pittston Area and Lake-
Lehman generated an
interesting rivalry last
season. The Black Knights
rebounded from an early-
season blowout to surprise
the Patriots 3-1 in the rst
round of districts. Lake-
Lehman gave Berwick
its biggest scare of the
season in a seminal loss
and bring the most lead-
ership in Hillard, Sutton
and Mahoney. Pittston
Area brings a high-octane
offense and will have to
depend on other sources
of offense besides Barber
to leapfrog to the top of
the division.
Coughlin and Holy
Redeemer could be dark
horses this season after
squeaking into the play-
offs last season. The
Crusaders will benet
from a healthy (2012
spring all-star) Nora Fazzi
who will surely comple-
ment Lercara and Tona
with strong mideld work.
The Royals have a very
deep team that is skilled
in the mideld.
Crestwood will be an
interesting team to watch
out for in 2013. Off-
season injuries crushed
the Comets, and their ros-
ter showcases a number
of names that made them
a playoff team in spring
2012. Morgan Kile will
juggle eld hockey and
soccer, potentially making
a strong impact down the
stretch.
Look for Tunkhannock,
Hanover Area, Hazleton
Area and Wyoming
Seminary to have strong
showings and be in the
running for district play-
off slots.

percent Hull will be in
time for the game, but his
return would be a boost
to a thin linebacker corps.
Penn State coaches elected
to play Brandon Bell last
week, forgoing a redshirt
for the true freshman
because both Hull and Ben
Kline were sidelined.
OBrien said Hull, Kline
(shoulder), LB Nyeem
Wartman (shoulder), OT
Adam Gress (knee) and RB
Bill Belton (undisclosed)
are all banged up but con-
sidered probable to play.
Safety Ryan Keiser is the
lone player OBrien called
questionable after being
knocked out of the Eastern
Michigan game in the rst
half. If Hull and Kline are
both available to play for
most of Saturdays game,
it could free up safety
Stephen Obeng-Agyapong
to play more at his natural
position after lling in at
linebacker for the rst two
weeks.
I think, if Hull can go,
it would be Hull, (Glenn)
Carson, and Wartman
(starting), more than like-
ly, OBrien said. If Hull
has some issues through-
out the week, well go with
whoever we have there,
whether its Obeng or
somebody else.
But Obeng will play, and
hell have a role in the game
just like hes had the past
two weeks.
Tight end Matt Lehman
had successful knee sur-
gery on Tuesday morning.
He will miss the rest of the
season along with DE Brad
Bars and WR DaeSean
Hamilton. Tight end Brent
Wilkerson remains out
indenitely following back
surgery.
eagles excitement
OBrien doesnt get too
much time to watch NFL
games with his busy sched-
ule. But he certainly made
note of what Chip Kelly and
the Philadelphia Eagles did
Monday night.
Kelly, the former Oregon
Ducks coach who consult-
ed OBrien and the New
England Patriots staff in
the past about running a
no-huddle offense, led the
Eagles to a 33-27 win in
Washington in his NFL
debut.
The Eagles ran out of
steam late but had been on
pace to set an NFL record
after running 53 plays on
offense in the rst half.
It was unbelievable. It
was great, OBrien said.
Its kind of a ne line that
you walk with your tempo.
Youre trying to control the
tempo of the game. A lot of
it has to do with how your
defense is playing.
With the way our
defense has been playing
in the last couple games, it
was probably appropriate
for us to be in more fast-
tempo because our defense
was playing pretty well. I
think you have to get the
ow of the game to see how
the games going.
OBrien doesnt run his
offense at the same break-
neck pace as Kelly, but he
enjoys it just the same.
I love to play at a fast
pace, OBrien said. I
think its a lot of fun for the
kids. Its fun in practice.
They enjoy it. They have
a lot of condence in it. So
well try to keep mixing it
in there.
Knights note
UCF hasnt had to break
much of a sweat this sea-
son. The Knights are 2-0
and have outscored oppo-
nents 76-7, including a
shutout of lowly Akron last
week.
The teams biggest con-
cern on its trip north may
be the health of starting left
tackle Torrian Wilson, who
injured a knee late in last
Fridays blowout.
Knights coach George
OLeary did not provide
an update on Wilson at
his weekly press confer-
ence on Monday. Wilson
would likely be the one to
match up with reigning
Big Ten Freshman of the
Year Deion Barnes, who is
looking for his rst sack of
the season.
From page 1B
Hull
helped put together Saturdays
game at Beaver Stadium and next
Septembers opener in Ireland.
OLeary, 67, has seen plenty of
former assistants have success at all
levels, and OBrien is now one of the
top examples.
All those coaches that Ive had
that have moved on to bigger jobs,
they had the one thing that you need
to have, OLeary said. Great work
habits. Theres no hours in the day
that you couldnt give them enough
information to make them better
coaches.
Theyre lm jockeys. Theyre
always watching lm and trying
to get better. And not just in their
position, but all positions. The good
coaches can coach em all. Because
its a team game and you need to
know the whole gamut.
The Yellow Jackets staff in the
mid-to-late 90s also included cur-
rent Penn State assistants Stan
Hixon and Mac McWhorter, as well
former Maryland head coach Ralph
Friedgen and newBuffalo Bills coach
Doug Marrone, one of OBriens best
friends in the business.
How all of those talented coach-
es and diverse personalities
meshed together in Atlanta under
OLeary provided a blueprint for
OBrien when it came time to pick
his own staff.
We had a laundry list of some
really good, top-notch coaches, many
of whom went on to become head
coaches, OBrien said. I learned
a lot from them. And I contributed
what I contributed to that staff, but
I think we all learned from Coach
OLeary.
And I think every one of those
guys would say we owe a lot to
Coach OLeary because he taught us
about tough, physical football, great
organization. Things like that.
This week, the two men will put
all that aside before the 6 p.m. kick-
off. Just football.
But OLeary remains proud of his
former protegee all the same.

point saying, I bet its hot in
there. Itch it.
NASCAR said they could not
prove Bowyers spin was inten-
tional.
Newman said he accepted
Bowyers apology and the two will
move on they have a previously
scheduled hunting trip together
next week. But while Bowyer dis-
cussed the spin in Monday nights
phone call, Newman told AP
Bowyer never said it was inten-
tional.
I could tell by the sound of his
voice, I really feel he was genu-
ine with his remorse, Newman
said. He said it was a heat of the
moment thing, and he told me
the biggest thing was he was glad
NASCAR did what they did and
took the action they did to get
me in the Chase. I believed him
and that made me feel good about
what he was saying. But, no, he
did not say with the exact words
that he spun on purpose.
Still, Newman said he has no
doubt that MWR manipulated
the ending of the race through
a series of different actions that
only began with the Bowyer
spin. NASCAR could only prove
one action radio communica-
tion between Norris and Vickers
in which a confused Vickers was
told to pit as the eld went green
with three laps to go. The call
was an effort to give Joey Logano
position on the track to pass Jeff
Gordon in the standings and
knock Gordon out of the Chase
so that Truex could gain the wild
card.
Newman had been leading at
the time of Bowyers spin with
seven laps to go, and the victory
would have given him the wild-
card berth. He lost the race and
the nal spot in the Chase.

That should be bad news
for other teams.
People wondered for eight
months how Kelly would
fare at the pro level after
having tremendous success
at Oregon. When he nally
unveiled his high-octane
philosophy, Kelly showed off
the play designs that earned
him a reputation for being an
offensive innovator.
The Eagles used numerous
formations in Kellys read-
zone attack, including some
that surely have defensive
coordinators bafed. Kelly
lined up both of his offensive
tackles wide for one play and
put them on the same side for
another. Its not just the plays
that are unique, but also the
signals for some of them.
Kelly has coaches putting
up ash cards to relay signs
to the offense. One placard
has a picture of the Phillie
Phanatic and another has
Sylvester Stallones Rocky
character.
We dont always run the
same play. We dont always
have the same options. I
think thats what makes the
defense have to be very hon-
est in terms of how they
play, Kelly said. If theres
always one way to do it,
theres always going to be
one way to defend it.
We have a wide variety in
terms of how we can do it.
Vick was outstanding,
throwing for 203 yards and
two touchdowns. He also
ran for 54 yards and another
score. LeSean McCoy had
184 of the teams 263 yards
rushing along with one TD.
DeSean Jackson caught
seven passes for 104 yards
and one touchdown.
They were having a hard
time lining up, McCoy said
of the Redskins defense. You
can denitely know when a
defense is tired, as theyre
going down youre hiking
the ball. The tempo really
worked. I dont think anyone
has seen it that fast.

Wal-Mart to take
smartphone trades
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is launching
a smartphone trade-in program later
this month that will help consumers
trade up to the newest phones avail-
able.
The worlds biggest retailer said
Tuesday that consumers will receive
a credit from $50 to $300 when they
trade in their working, undamaged
phone. The credit can be used toward
the purchase of a new phone, with a
selection of more than 100 devices
to choose from. This includes some
smartphones with prepaid plans.
Phones can be traded in at the
electronics departments of more than
3,600 participating Walmart stores
and Sams Club locations in the U.S.
Consumers will need to enter a two-
year contract for the new phone with
AT&T, Verizon Wireless or Sprint.
FDA seeks stronger
pain med warning
The Food and Drug Administration
is requiring stronger warning labels on
prescription painkillers like OxyContin,
in the governments latest attempt to
reduce overdose deaths caused by the
long-acting medications.
The changes announced Tuesday are
designed to remind doctors and patients
about the fatal risks of misusing and
abusing long-acting opioid pain reliev-
ers, which include forms of oxycodone,
morphine and other narcotic medica-
tions. The new label emphasizes the
drugs are only for patients with around-
the-clock pain.
Internet puppy
sellers targeted
The Agriculture Department is crack-
ing down on dog breeders who sell
puppies over the Internet, issuing new
regulations that will force them to apply
for federal licenses.
The rules announced Tuesday would
subject dog owners who breed more
than four females and sell the puppies
online, by mail or over the phone to
the same oversight faced by wholesale
animal breeders.
Many breeders who run their busi-
nesses online have skirted federal
oversight by classifying themselves as
retail pet stores, which are exempt from
licensing requirements. Commercial pet
stores arent required to have licenses
because buyers can see the animals
before they buy them and decide
whether they appear healthy and cared
for. But thats not the case when buying
over the Internet.

BUSINESS
IN BRIEF
WASHINGTON The
income gap between the rich-
est 1 percent and the rest of
America last year reached
the widest point since the
Roaring Twenties.
The top 1 percent of U.S.
earners collected 19.3 percent
of household income in 2012,
their largest share since 1928.
And the share held by the top
10 percent of earners last year
reached a record 48.2 percent.
U.S. income inequality
has been growing for almost
three decades. But it grew
again last year, according to
an analysis of IRS gures dat-
ing to 1913 by economists at
the University of California,
Berkeley, the Paris School
of Economics and Oxford
University.
One of them, Emmanuel
Saez of the University of
California, Berkeley, said
the incomes of the richest
Americans might have surged
last year in part because
they cashed in stock hold-
ings to avoid higher capital
gains taxes that took effect in
January.
Last year, the incomes of
the top 1 percent rose nearly
20 percent compared with
a 1 percent increase for the
remaining 99 percent.
The richest Americans
were hit hard by the nan-
cial crisis. Their incomes fell
more than 36 percent in the
Great Recession of 2007 to
2009 as stock prices plum-
meted. Incomes for the bot-
tom 99 percent fell just 11.6
percent, according to the
analysis.
But since the recession of-
cially ended in June 2009, the
top 1 percent have enjoyed the
benets of rising corporate
prots and stock prices: 95
percent of the income gains
reported since 2009 have gone
to the top 1 percent.
That compares with a 45
percent share for the top
1 percent in the economic
expansion of the 1990s and
a 65 percent share from the
expansion that followed the
2001 recession.
The top 10 percent havent
done badly, either. Last year,
they captured 48.2 percent of
income, up from the previous
record, 46.6 percent, in 2011.
The top 1 percent of
American households had
income above $394,000 last
year. The top 10 percent had
income exceeding $114,000.
The income gures include
wages, pension payments,
dividends and capital gains
from the sale of stocks and
other assets. They do not
include so-called transfer pay-
ments from government pro-
grams such as unemployment
benets and Social Security.
Income gap widest since 1920s

Craig Federighi, senior vice president of Software Engineering at Apple, speaks Tuesday during the new
product release in Cupertino, Calif. Apples latest iPhones will come in a bevy of colors and two distinct
designs, one made of plastic and the other that aims to be the gold standard of smartphones and reads
your fingerprint. The fingerprint can be used to unlock the phone and, perhaps, even be tied to making
payments on the phone.

WASHINGTON Major
contractors hooking up
the internal plumbing of
President Barack Obamas
health care law projected
confidence Tuesday that they
will be ready to go by an Oct.
1 deadline, even though the
system is still being tested.
With only three weeks to
go before new state health
insurance markets launch,
efforts are ongoing to reli-
ably link up government
agencies, the markets them-
selves and private health
plans.
The congressional
Government Accountability
Office warned this summer
that with so much work
left for the last minute, the
timely and smooth launch
of the markets could not be
guaranteed. Still, with the
presidents image at stake,
his administration is work-
ing all out to deliver.
But the administration
got a boost this week when
California officials said their
marketplace the nations
largest would start enroll-
ing uninsured people Oct. 1
as scheduled, through a mix
of online access, call cen-
ter support and community
helpers.
Representatives of four
big contractors testified
in a rare joint appearance
Tuesday before the House
Energy and Commerce com-
mittee. Republicans who run
the panel billed the hear-
ing as a pulse check on
Obamas law. The contrac-
tors have routinely ignored
media requests to explain
their work, but they could
not rebuff Congress.
A private consulting firm
that is advising states also
separately said it expects a
rocky launch, due in part to
the sheer scope of technicali-
ties in the system.
Obamas health care law
will provide subsidized pri-
vate coverage for middle-
class people who dont
get health insurance from
employers. Low-income
people will be steered to
an expanded version of
Medicaid in states that
accepted it.
The insurance market-
places that launch Oct. 1 are
supposed to be the gateway
to the new system. People
can apply online, through a
call center, in person or on
paper. Thirty percent are
expected to use paper.
Coverage takes effect Jan
1. At that time, insurers will
be forbidden from turning
away people in poor health
and virtually all Americans
will be required to carry
health insurance or face
fines. Two recent indepen-
dent studies of rates already
filed by insurers indicate
plenty of low-premium plans
will be available, but con-
sumers who pick them will
face high deductibles and
copayments.
The four contractors each
said they would be ready,
and said they have strong
safeguards in place to pro-
tect the privacy of personal
data an issue Republicans
have lately raised as a poten-
tial vulnerability.
Obamacare contractors
say theywill be ready

NEW YORK The Dow
Jones industrial average will
have three new members in
Goldman Sachs Group Inc.,
Visa Inc. and Nike Inc., while
Bank of America Corp.,
Hewlett-Packard Co. and Alcoa
Inc. have been shown the door.
S&P Dow Jones Indices
announced the shakeup before
the open on Tuesday, saying it
represents the rst three-for-
three change to the blue-chip
index since April 2004.
Goldman will replace Bank
of America, Visa will replace
HP, and Nike will replace Alcoa.
The adjustment to the Dow
industrials will happen after
the close of trading Sept. 20,
and it will be effective at the
open of trading the following
Monday.
S&P Dow Jones Indices,
the company behind the
index, said it made the change
because of the low stock prices
of the three departing compo-
nents, and because the compa-
nys index committee wants to
diversify the sector and indus-
try group representation.
The three stocks on the way
out are the Dows three lowest-
priced components, said David
Blitzer, managing director and
chairman of the index commit-
tee at S&P Dow Jones Indices.
That means they have relatively
little impact on the Dow, since
its a price-weighted index
unlike other popular bench-
marks, such as the Standard
& Poors 500 index, that are
weighted by market capitaliza-
tion.
Blitzer said additions and
removals to the index shouldnt
be seen as investment rec-
ommendations. Theres no
intention to pick winners, he
said during a conference call
Tuesday.
With Goldman supplanting
Bank of America, the blue-
chip index is exchanging one
nancial rm for another.

PHILADELPHIA If youre
planning to bake a cake for your
childs upcoming birthday party,
you might want to ask yourself one
question: What would the Cake
Boss do?
Because if you think a basic sheet
cake and candles are all you need,
you clearly havent been paying
attention. Extreme caking has come
to the home cook, fueled partly by
TV shows showcasing crazy confec-
tions and partly by boastful amateur
bakers eager to strut their sugary
stuff on social media.
Shows like Ace of Cakes, Cake
Boss and various spinoffs tempt
viewers with stunning visions of
creations closer to art than dessert.
They build cityscapes, sea monsters
and dragons all sculpted like stat-
ues in three dimensions. Amateurs
follow suit, posting photos of their
creations to Twitter and Reddit, and
the more elaborate the cakes are,
the more popular they become.
This helps explain why once eso-
teric pro-grade tools and ingredients
for creating elaborately embellished
cakes not to mention classes on
how to use all those toys are big
sellers today.
In Philadelphias Italian Market,
kitchen supply store Fantes has
been teaching cake decorating to
amateurs for at least 30 years. The
supplies they sell and classes they
offer are constant indicators of cake
trends. During the early 80s it was
marzipan and fancy owers; today
its 3-D and fondant, an icing that
can be sculpted.
There was a huge shift as soon as
the TV shows came out, says Nina
Rose Pelc, an instructor at Fantes.
Ive seen some three-tiered, ve-
tiered cakes that could be wed-
ding cakes for 3-year-olds birth-
day parties.
According to Lynn Sorensen, co-
owner of Kitchen Krafts, a website
that sells baking tools and materi-
als, the number of vendors selling
specialty tools and ingredients for
building these cakes has increased
as demand for them has risen.
She says the cakes people want
to build can change by the week,
depending on popular movies or
events. When the royal baby was
born, for example, Sorensen said
people wanted decorative crowns.
The Cake Boss himself, Buddy
Valastro, said in a phone interview
that hes happy to have raised the
cake-decorating bar.
Im a proponent of people mak-
ing those kinds of cakes, trying
to make the cakes that I make,
Valastro says. At the end of the day,
the reason I became a baker is that
when you nish a cake and you step
away, theres a feeling inside. Youre
like, Wow! And I want to give that
feeling to other people.
When Joshua Orvis, a research
scientist from Tulsa, Okla., started
getting into extreme caking along
with his wife, it was for their sons
third birthday.
He said, I want an Angry Birds
cake and we thought, Well, how do
we do that? Orvis says.
He searched Google Images for
Angry Birds cakes, unsure of what
would turn up. Hundreds of color-
ful cakes tiled his screen depicting
the games scenes and characters in
varying levels of complexity.
Then we found out you can get
fondant and just make whatever you
want to make, Orvis says. Like a
kid with Play-Doh, we just sculpted
shapes out of it.
The Angry Birds cake was a suc-
cess. The Orvises have since sculpted
a variety of special cakes for their four
young children: one of Pingu, the clay-
mation Swiss-British penguin, one of

As satisfying as it is
to eat freshly picked
apples straight up and
unadorned, the chill of fall
makes it equally tempting
to head back to the kitch-
en and bake them into a
pie.
But thats where most
people get tripped up.
They fear a fussy pie
crust. They loathe a long
baking time or a persnick-
ety lling. So we decided
to come up with an easy
apple tart that uses a
fuss-free crust and comes
together in under an hour.
Even better because
the lling is only gently
cooked on the stovetop,
the apples retain more
of their crisp, fresh, just-
picked avor.

Pantry Chef, Vanderlyns Restaurant
Summer may be winding down, but I enjoy grilling
year round. This week I am sharing an awesome recipe,
which is an upgrade to your everyday burger. By adding
delicious crab meat, your burger is taken to a new level
of sophisticated grilling yet done simply.
I used a claw-meat variety of crab
and further enhanced this elegant
sandwich by topping it off with an Old
Bay infused mayonnaise. It adds the
right amount of seasoning to the crab
meat and a savory component to the
burger. When put on your favorite roll
I used a brioche, soft roll this
half-pound burger will be a hearty treat
for you and your guests. It is truly a
great combination of surf and turf.
I have paired this burger with home-
made coleslaw and a crispy dill pickle, both prepared
from locally grown ingredients. My garden cooperated
this year, so I was able to make my family-recipe crispy
dill pickles to enjoy later in the year.
You may make this outstanding burger yourself at
home or if you would rather sit back, relax and have
Vanderlyns culinary team prepare it for you, we will
offer the Surf & Turf Burger at Vanderlyns Restaurant
beginning today for lunch service. For reservations or
additional features call Vanderlyns at 283-6260. Check
out our website at www.vanderlyns.com to see our new
lunch and dinner menus.

In a food processor,
combine the butter, sugar
and 1/4 teaspoon of the
salt. Pulse several times.
Add the our and pulse to
combine, scraping down
the sides of the work
bowl as needed. Transfer
the dough to the prepared
pan. Press the dough
evenly across the bottom
and up the sides of the
pan. Poke the bottom all
over with a fork. Bake for
15 to 20 minutes, or until
golden brown.
While the crust bakes,
make the lling. In a large
skillet over medium-high
heat, combine the apples,
vinegar, brown sugar,
cider, cinnamon and the
remaining 1/4 teaspoon
salt. Cook, gently stirring
to promote even cooking
but without breaking the
apples, until just tender,
about 10 to 12 minutes.
In a small glass, mix
together the cornstarch
and water. Add to the
apples and cook, stirring
gently, for 2 minutes, or
until thickened.
When the crust and
apples are cooked, spoon
the apples into the crust,
arranging them in con-
centric circles if desired.
Pour any extra juices over
the surface of the apples.
Serve warm or room tem-
perature.

rewarding, not just for the
joy it brings their children
but also for the creative
outlet.
Both of our jobs are not
very artistic, but we both
think that were relatively
artistic people, Orvis
says. Its a fun thing to do
together.
Unfortunately, not every
foray into elaborate cake
making goes so well. Katie
Lewis, a 32-year-old web
designer from Washington,
D.C., has given it up entirely.
When a friend asked
her to make a cake for his
wedding, Lewis had a few
elaborate cakes under her
belt. There was a gory
fondant chest cavity with
a red velvet heart for one
Halloween, and a tasty
alien head for another.
But now shed entered the
big leagues: a three-tiered,
three-dimensional, Mario
Brothers-themed wedding
cake.

the cake the night before
the wedding, and it wasnt
working out. As the hours
went by, she realized that
shed taken on something
too big. She didnt have
the right tools or the right
training.
At one point I was lying
on the oor just covered in
confectioners sugar, she
said.
By morning, Lewis
managed to put together
something that kind of
appeared to be some sort
of cake but has never
looked back. She doesnt
watch shows like Cake
Boss anymore.
Its not possible, and it
makes you cry, she says.
There is, however, a mid-
dle ground between baking
a work of art and produc-
ing a boring, traditional
cake. Some amateurs sim-
ply use a layer of fondant
to cover a traditional round
cake and get creative from
there.
And at Fantes, Pelc
says the classes that focus
on baking basics remain
among the most popular.
We will always have
an interest in using the
traditional butter-cream
approach, Pelc says.
Those are fundamentals
people will always want to
learn.
Have a taste for cornbread?
Heres a corn-fed recipe

Using only cornmeal makes this cornbread gluten-free. Adding pureed fresh sweet corn boosts the
corn flavor while ensuring a moist bread.
KIM ODE
Star Tribune (Minneapolis)
Cornbread may not
have been front and cen-
ter, but we suspect it also
was a source of contention
during the Civil War. Or
as it is also known: The
War Between the Recipes.
Even today, Southerners
maintain that not even a
smidgen of sugar should
besmirch their beloved
cornbread. Northerners,
ever girding themselves
for winter, like their corn-
bread a little sweet.
Southerners call
for bacon fat, while
Northerners think butter
is just ne. There are but-
termilk camps and plain-
milk camps. Then there
are the doctorers, who
cant help but stir in some
diced jalapeos, shredded
Cheddar cheese, crum-
bled bacon, corn kernels,
even dollops of jam.
In the end, though, it all
comes down to the corni-
ness of the cornbread.
Todays recipe combines
the best parts of two great
recipes, one from Cooks
Illustrated and the other
from Cooks Country
both under the umbrella
of Americas Test Kitchen
(although perhaps not on
speaking terms?).
In any case, the result-
LAUREN CHATTMAN
Newsday
The abundance of late-summer
tomatoes is a mixed blessing. It is
wonderful to be able to enjoy them
in massive quantities, but theres
also the sad realization the sup-
ply wont last. If you are not up to
the task of canning your surplus,
is there anything you can you do
to preserve your gardens tomato
bounty for a snowy day?
The simplest and most avor-
ful solution is oven roasting. Slice
your extra tomatoes in half and
place them, cut-sides up, on a wire
rack set on a baking sheet. Drizzle
with a little olive oil, sprinkle with
salt and bake. Ive seen recipes that
call for roasting at 225 degrees for
3 hours and others that specify 400
degrees for 30 minutes. Any tem-
perature will work. Just keep an
eye on your tomatoes and pull them
out when they are shriveled but not
completely dry.
This method works best on toma-
toes without a lot of seeds and
juice. Plum tomatoes and cherry
tomatoes are both good choices.
Oven-roasted tomatoes will keep in
an airtight container in the refrig-
erator for up to ve days and can
be frozen for up to 6 months. Roast
some today and you can enjoy them
in the dark days of February.
Roasted tomatoes have a concen-
trated avor and sweetness simi-
lar to sun-dried tomatoes. But in
texture they are entirely different.
While commercial sun-dried toma-
toes are practically dehydrated, giv-
ing them a chewy and sometimes
leathery consistency, roasted toma-
toes are tender and yielding. And
unlike commercially available sun-
dried tomatoes, homemade roasted
tomatoes are all-natural and preser-
vative-free.
A few ideas for using your toma-
toes, now or later:
On sandwiches and pizza
Roasted tomatoes add moisture
to sandwiches without making
bread soggy. Try grilled Cheddar
cheese with roasted tomatoes, or
a BL and roasted T. Roast beef,
roasted tomatoes and rosemary-a-
vored mayonnaise is another favor-
ite. They also are great on pizzas,
adding avor without drenching
the dough. Roasted tomatoes and
ricotta cheese are a good combina-
tion, as are roasted tomatoes, fen-
nel sausage and Fontina cheese.
In salads
Add defrosted roasted tomatoes
to a green salad in the middle of
the winter, when avorless super-
market tomatoes are the only other
option. They also are good in heart-
ier salads made with grains. Toss
couscous, roasted tomatoes, olives
and feta cheese for a quick vegetar-
ian main dish. Another good com-
bination: bulgur, roasted tomatoes,
sauteed onions, spinach and chick-
peas. Dont be shy with the spices.
The robust avor of roasted toma-
toes stands up well to salad dress-
ings containing cumin, smoked
paprika and chili powder.
With pasta
Perhaps the most obvious way to
Roast tomatoes to preserve the late-summer bounty

crumbs and anchovies provides flavor contrast and crunch.
ing cornbread uses 100
percent cornmeal (mak-
ing it gluten-free) that
gets a brief soak in but-
termilk. It makes a good
cornbread. But then we
added the kernels from
a couple of ears of sweet
corn, pured and cooked
down just a bit into a
sort of corn butter. Its
an extra step, but vaults
this good cornbread into
the territory of great,
and makes savvy use of
this seasons sweet corn.
The Cooks Country
recipe works because
the cornmeal softens in
the buttermilk, making
a moist bread with no
graininess. The Cooks
Illustrated recipe works
because pureing the ker-
nels avoids those weird
chewy pockets in the
bread, or corn that grows
tough in the ovens heat.
The recipes split on the
sugar question, but we
sided with leaving out the
sweetener. Thats what
a drizzle of honey is for,
right?
If you have a cast-iron
or other ovenproof skil-
let, please use that. But
a regular 9- by 9-inch
metal pan works well, too.
Preheating either pan cre-
ates the crispiest crust.
And if you want to swap
in bacon fat for the butter,
yall go ahead.
After all, the idea is to
ensure that a nation of
cornbread of the people,
by the people, for the peo-
ple, shall not perish from
the Earth. Nor from our
plates.

CORNBREAD
Serves 9 to 12.
Note: This recipe is
adapted from recipes
by Cooks Country and
Cooks Illustrated. If mak-
ing this with frozen corn,
the small shoepeg vari-
ety works particularly
well. Thaw before pure-
ing.
2 c. ne-ground corn-
meal
2 c. buttermilk
2 ears of sweet corn,
kernels cut from cobs
(about 1 to 1 c.)
c. canola or vegetable
oil
4 tbsp. unsalted butter,
cut in 4 pieces
2 eggs, beaten
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
Directions: Preheat
oven to 450 degrees.
Place rack in middle posi-
tion. Place 10-inch cast-
iron or ovenproof skillet
or 9- by 9-inch metal pan
in oven to preheat for 10
minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk
together cornmeal and
buttermilk. Set aside.
Process the corn ker-
nels in a blender until
very smooth, about 1 min-
ute. Transfer to a medium
saucepan and cook over
medium heat, stirring
constantly, until thick and
deep yellow, about 5 min-
utes. Remove from heat
and set aside.
Carefully add the oil to
the hot skillet and contin-
ue to bake until oil is just
smoking, about 5 min-
utes. Remove from oven
and add butter, carefully
swirling pan until butter
is melted. Pour all but 1
tablespoon of oil mixture
into the cornmeal, leaving
remaining oil mixture in
pan. Whisk corn pure,
beaten eggs, baking pow-
der, baking soda and salt
into cornmeal mixture
until well-combined.
Pour mixture into the
hot skillet and bake until
top begins to crack and
edges are golden brown,
20 to 22 minutes. Let
cornbread cool in pan
for 5 minutes. Place a
plate over the top of corn-
bread, then carefully turn
over the skillet until the
cornbread releases. Then
cover cornbread with a
serving plate and ip it
so its right-side up. Serve
warm.
Variations: Stir in
cup chopped jalapeos,
cup shredded Cheddar
or pepper jack cheese,
or 3 to 4 slices cooked
and crumbled bacon just
before baking.

NEW YORK Tina Fey
cant seem to stay away
from 30 Rockefeller Plaza.
The funny lady, whose
Emmy-nominated 30
Rock had its series na-
le on NBC earlier this
year and has already sold
another female-centered
sitcom to the network last
month, will return to her
old stamping grounds once
again on Sept. 28, when
she will host the 39th sea-
son premiere of Saturday
Night Live.
Fey, of course, got her
start on the long-running
comedy series, on which
she was the shows rst
female head writer as
well as the co-anchor of
Weekend Update, rst
with Jimmy Fallon and
later with Amy Poehler.
She left Saturday Night
Live in 2006 to develop
the Emmy-winning 30
Rock but has returned
repeatedly over the years,
most notably in 2008,
when she appeared several
times to perform an imper-
sonation of vice presiden-
tial candidate Sarah Palin.
She also has hosted three
times.
Fey will return to the
show just as her successor,
Seth Meyers, prepares to
leave SNL to take over
for Jimmy Fallon as host of
Late Night in early 2014.
The current Weekend
Update anchor and head
writer will stay on board at
SNL until December.
Fey will be joined by
musical guest Arcade Fire.
Other talent lined up for
the fall includes host and
musical guest Miley Cyrus
on Oct. 5 (Taran Killam
should start honing that
Robin Thicke impression
right about now) and
Bruce Willis, who will host
on Oct. 12 with musical
guest Katy Perry.

Cobie Smulders faces fnal season
of HowI Met Your Mother
LOS ANGELES Fifty nine
series will start their new sea-
sons on the ve networks this
fall to go along with the 26 new
programs getting added to the
lineups. All but one of those
shows will start the year hoping
to have a good enough year to
get brought back next season.
The cast and crew of How I
Met Your Mother start their
ninth season on Sept. 23 know-
ing that this is the last year.
After being teased for nearly a
decade, viewers will nally get to
nd out how Ted (Josh Radnor)
met the woman he would wed.
How that plays out through the
nal episodes isnt clear, but it
will all take place in whats sup-
posed to be the weekend leading
up to the marriage of Barney
(Neil Patrick Harris) and Robin
(Cobie Smulders).
If thats the case, Smulders had
better like the wedding dress
her character will be wearing
because shell be in it for a big
part of the year. The only break
will come, as has become the
norm with the Monday night
CBS comedy, during episodes
that will include ashbacks.
The end of How I Met Your
Mother is bittersweet for the
Canadian actress. Shes excited
about the opportunity to move
on to other projects, but shes
been on the show for so many
years that it feels like home. The
reality is that this is the end.
Just like fans of the show,
Smulders got to see the Mother
when Cristin Milioti appeared in
the last moments of the season
eight nale. There have been a
lot of different candidates for the
mother job over the years.
In the rst year, I thought I
was going to end up being the
mother, Smulders says. But
that went away in seasons two
or three. There still have been a
lot of people who wanted to offer
their theory. For me, all I cared
about was what I was doing.
Smulders is glad Milioti will
be on the series all season and
get to interact with the cast.
Her greatest fear was that the
character would be revealed in
the last scene of the very last
episode with Bob Saget whos
been the narrator as the voice of
future Ted since the start say-
ing and thats how I met your
mother and the screen going
black.
After this season, the cast will
go their separate ways. Smulders
has been thinking about future
work that could include stage
or even another series, though
shes leaning more toward work
in lms.
Right nowImexcited because
since we know this is the last
year, I have time to choose what
I want to do, she says.
Smulders is going to reprise
her role of Agent Maria Hill
rst seen in the feature lm
The Avengers in Captain
America: The Winter Soldier
that will be released in 2014.
Shes hoping to be part of the
Avengers sequel when it starts
lming.
Smulders will make guest
appearance as Hill in the rst
episode of the new ABC series
Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D,
which airs Sept. 24.
RICK BENTLEY
The Fresno Bee
Cobie Smulders, a.k.a. Robin Scherbatsky, will not be revealed as the mother in the
final season of How I Met Your Mother. That job, which also includes wife of Ted
Mosby (Josh Radnor, left) will go to a character played by Cristin Milioti.
Back where she began: Tina Fey will host season premiere of SNL
MEREDITH BLAKE
Los Angeles Times
Tina Fey will return to her old stamping grounds on Sept. 28 to
host the season premiere of Saturday Night Live.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My
13-year-old son,
Wiley, was play-
ing a game on my
cellphone. I stupidly
forgot to delete a
short video of myself
engaged in a sex act
with my ex-husband, Cliff. Wiley
didnt confront me or mention it, but
given his sudden change in behavior,
Im almost certain he saw it.
The next morning I mentioned
it and apologized, hoping we could
get past the awkwardness, but Wiley
wouldnt admit this is whats bother-
ing him. He wont talk to me.
I divorced Cliff because he and my
son didnt get along, but in the last
six months we have been secretly
having an affair and we ultimately
want to get back together when Wiley
is 18. My son doesnt approve of him
and hes angry about it.
Im worried and embarrassed that
he saw me doing what I was doing in
that few seconds of video, and I dont
want to scar him or have him think
differently of me. I tried therapy for
Wiley it didnt help. Do you have
any suggestions?
Mortified in Arizona
Dear Mortified: Im printing your
letter because, once again, it illus-
trates the danger of putting videos of
a sexual nature on cellphones. I can
think of few people of any age who
dont prefer to think of themselves as
products of immaculate conception,
and your son is no exception.
Because Cliff and Wileys relation-
ship was so poor the three of you
couldnt coexist under one roof, dis-
covering that you are once more in-
timately involved with your ex must
have been traumatic and threatening
to Wiley. It might reassure him to
know that your seeing Cliff does not
mean you will be living together any-
time soon.
In the meantime, I recommend that
YOU talk with a therapist to help you
cope with the changed relationship
you now have with your son. Di-
vorced couples MUST remember that
they have to love their child more
than they hate each other.
Dear Abby: A year and a half ago, I
reconnected with Paul. We were in
grade school together and hadnt seen
each other for many years. We have
been extremely happy and want to
spend our remaining years together.
Because of our ages (were both
seniors) and separate families and
incomes, we feel marriage is not what
wed like to do. But we would like to
move in together.
Would it be ridiculous for us to do
that without being married? Will the
world condemn us? Will our children
understand or ostracize us? How do
we handle questions about why we
have chosen not to marry?
In Love in Louisiana
Dear In Love: Many older couples
do what you are considering because
being married would negatively affect
their retirement income. If your chil-
dren like Paul and his children like
you I doubt you will be ostracized.
Most adult children want their par-
ents to be happy.
If youre worried about how the
community will react, consider talk-
ing to a clergyperson about being
married in the eyes of God. As to
questions about why you have chosen
not to marry, apart from your family,
it is nobodys business and you are
not obligated to discuss it.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Moms brief cellphone video has lingering consequences for her son
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Friends
ask a lot of you, but dont feel
obligated. Give whats easy
for you to give, and do as you
please. Taking care of yourself
and being happy will be the best
thing for your friendship.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Easy
and effective solutions may be
right in front of you, but for
some reason you may be unable
to see them. So take it easy. Go
slowly into the days events.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The apple
from the Garden of Eden was
supposedly delicious before Eve
and Adam took a bite, and poi-
sonous thereafter. Similarly, the
juicy knowledge you get at the
start of the day may be tainted
by days end.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You
can avoid misfortune by being
silent. The talkative parrot is
shut up in a cage. Other birds,
without speech, fly freely about.
Saskya Pandita
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). No matter
how much you liked an endeavor
the first dozen or few hundred
times you did it, eventually youll
tire of it. Launch the search for
whats next.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You want
to make a difference. Getting
too deep into the minutia will
burn you out before you have a
chance to do any real work. Start
with broad strokes.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You are
part of a human chain. Your
positioning does depend on
the links before and after you.
Understand where this chain is
anchored, and youll know better
the direction in which you need
to stretch.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Sometimes you have to open
your eyes to see, and other
times you have to close them.
Both kinds of observational
opportunities will be present
today.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
The Internet is rife with bizarre
ideas. Youre susceptible now,
so beware: If you read enough
about people who want to cook
in their dishwashers or grow
tails, you may entertain a few
strange notions, too.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Is
it wrong to spend so much time
and energy questing for new
experiences? Not wrong, exactly
more like misguided. An expe-
rience doesnt have to be sought
after.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Every
relationship is different. They
each have their own color and
tone. Dont be afraid of making
new connections or watching
your friends make new
connections.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Can a
day of happiness be enough to
make someone entirely happy?
According to Aristotle, the
answer is no. However, you could
prove the philosopher wrong
today.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Sept. 11).
You wont fully understand the
big picture, and thats OK. As
long as you can see whats in
front of you and take the next
step, youll do remarkable things
October brings a happy reunion.
November ends a financial issue.
Family expands in February. Your
lucky numbers are: 13, 40, 50, 47
and 25.

NEW YORK Tina Fey
cant seem to stay away
from 30 Rockefeller Plaza.
The funny lady, whose
Emmy-nominated 30
Rock had its series na-
le on NBC earlier this
year and has already sold
another female-centered
sitcom to the network last
month, will return to her
old stamping grounds once
again on Sept. 28, when
she will host the 39th sea-
son premiere of Saturday
Night Live.
Fey, of course, got her
start on the long-running
comedy series, on which
she was the shows rst
female head writer as
well as the co-anchor of
Weekend Update, rst
with Jimmy Fallon and
later with Amy Poehler.
She left Saturday Night
Live in 2006 to develop
the Emmy-winning 30
Rock but has returned
repeatedly over the years,
most notably in 2008,
when she appeared several
times to perform an imper-
sonation of vice presiden-
tial candidate Sarah Palin.
She also has hosted three
times.
Fey will return to the
show just as her successor,
Seth Meyers, prepares to
leave SNL to take over
for Jimmy Fallon as host of
Late Night in early 2014.
The current Weekend
Update anchor and head
writer will stay on board at
SNL until December.
Fey will be joined by
musical guest Arcade Fire.
Other talent lined up for
the fall includes host and
musical guest Miley Cyrus
on Oct. 5 (Taran Killam
should start honing that
Robin Thicke impression
right about now) and
Bruce Willis, who will host
on Oct. 12 with musical
guest Katy Perry.

Cobie Smulders faces fnal season
of HowI Met Your Mother
LOS ANGELES Fifty nine
series will start their new sea-
sons on the ve networks this
fall to go along with the 26 new
programs getting added to the
lineups. All but one of those
shows will start the year hoping
to have a good enough year to
get brought back next season.
The cast and crew of How I
Met Your Mother start their
ninth season on Sept. 23 know-
ing that this is the last year.
After being teased for nearly a
decade, viewers will nally get to
nd out how Ted (Josh Radnor)
met the woman he would wed.
How that plays out through the
nal episodes isnt clear, but it
will all take place in whats sup-
posed to be the weekend leading
up to the marriage of Barney
(Neil Patrick Harris) and Robin
(Cobie Smulders).
If thats the case, Smulders had
better like the wedding dress
her character will be wearing
because shell be in it for a big
part of the year. The only break
will come, as has become the
norm with the Monday night
CBS comedy, during episodes
that will include ashbacks.
The end of How I Met Your
Mother is bittersweet for the
Canadian actress. Shes excited
about the opportunity to move
on to other projects, but shes
been on the show for so many
years that it feels like home. The
reality is that this is the end.
Just like fans of the show,
Smulders got to see the Mother
when Cristin Milioti appeared in
the last moments of the season
eight nale. There have been a
lot of different candidates for the
mother job over the years.
In the rst year, I thought I
was going to end up being the
mother, Smulders says. But
that went away in seasons two
or three. There still have been a
lot of people who wanted to offer
their theory. For me, all I cared
about was what I was doing.
Smulders is glad Milioti will
be on the series all season and
get to interact with the cast.
Her greatest fear was that the
character would be revealed in
the last scene of the very last
episode with Bob Saget whos
been the narrator as the voice of
future Ted since the start say-
ing and thats how I met your
mother and the screen going
black.
After this season, the cast will
go their separate ways. Smulders
has been thinking about future
work that could include stage
or even another series, though
shes leaning more toward work
in lms.
Right nowImexcited because
since we know this is the last
year, I have time to choose what
I want to do, she says.
Smulders is going to reprise
her role of Agent Maria Hill
rst seen in the feature lm
The Avengers in Captain
America: The Winter Soldier
that will be released in 2014.
Shes hoping to be part of the
Avengers sequel when it starts
lming.
Smulders will make guest
appearance as Hill in the rst
episode of the new ABC series
Marvels Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D,
which airs Sept. 24.
