A former Wilkes-Barre police captain is the
first person to die in Pennsylvania this year as
a result of complications from the mosquito-
borne West Nile Virus.
Joseph Krawetz, 82, died Sunday at Kindred
Hospital, Wilkes-Barre. The North End resi-
dent started with the police force in 1963 and
served for more than a quarter of a century
before retiring.
His wife of 51 years, Dorothy, said her hus-
band was an avid gardener
and loved walking their Bi-
chon dog, Buddy, but en-
gaged in few other outdoor
activities. She also said they
made it a point to not have
standing water on the proper-
ty, which state Department
of Environmental Protection
officials say is the best way to prevent mosqui-
to pools from forming.
Dorothy Krawetz said her husband began
complaining on Aug. 2 about a pain in the back
of his neck and she noticed memory lapses,
though at his age that didnt seemunusual. He
went to see a doctor, and by the end of the next
day he was in the hospital. She later learned
that West Nile causes neurological issues.
He soon entered a semi-comatose state and
was hooked to a ventilator until he died Sun-
day.
She said she hopes people who hear about

NEW ORLEANS With its
massive size and ponderous
movement, Tropical Storm
Isaac was gaining strength
Monday as it headedtowardthe
Gulf Coast. The next 24 hours
would determine whether it
brought the usual punishing
rains and winds or some-
thing even more destructive
harkening back to the devasta-
tionwrought sevenyears ago by
Hurricane Katrina.
The focus has been on New
Orleans as Isaac takes dead aim
at the city, but the impact will
be felt well beyond the city lim-
its. The storms winds could be
felt more than 200 miles from
the storms center.
The Gulf Coast region has
been saturated thanks to a wet
summer, and some officials
have worried more rain could
make it easy for trees andpower
lines to fall over in the wet
ground. Too much water also
could flood crops, and wind
couldtopple plants suchas corn

T
he evening of Saturday, August
25, 2012, at 9:24 p.m., with quiet
courage and the dignity, manner
and grace of a lady, Maryterese
Ryan Streett passed peacefully from
the loving embraces of her family
and friends on this earth to the lov-
ing embraces of God and previously
departed family and friends in heav-
en.
Mary was born on September 4,
1930 in the little Borough of Forty
Fort, situated in the Wyoming Val-
ley to which Mary referred as the
Valley of Enchantment, in the
mountainous region of Northeast-
ern PA, to proud Irish parents, Jo-
seph and Mary Ryan (nee Durkin).
Baptized a Roman Catholic, Ma-
ry and her family belonged to Holy
Name of Jesus Parish in Swoyers-
ville. Mary attended and was gradu-
ated from Holy Name School and
later, over the objections of her fa-
ther, who said she should find and
settle down with a good Polish hus-
band, Mary earned a scholarship to
and attended and was graduated,
with a degree in English, from Col-
lege Misericordia (now Misericor-
dia University, Dallas). There are
mountain people and ocean people
and Mary was the latter.
During her college years. Mary
spent summers working at the Col-
ton Manor hotel located on the
boardwalk in Atlantic City, N.J., and
was fondof recountingstories of her
college days, of her carefree fun-fil-
led summers in Atlantic City, and of
the treasured lifelong friendships
she made at bothplaces, college and
the shore.
After completing college, in1952
the intrepid Mary (She was not
where she had beenShe was not
where she was goingBut she was
on her way...) traveled from North-
eastern PA to the little town of Bel
Air, situated in rural Harford Coun-
ty, Maryland, to begin her teaching
career at the newly constructed
(1950) Bel Air High School. Marys
migrationtoBel Air at that timewas
the beginning of a migration of
many talented teachers fromNorth-
eastern PA to Bel Air, all of whom
have left legacy and imprint on Bel
Air students andpublic educationin
Harford County. Mary was creative,
of an artistic bent and not rigid in
her approach to teaching.
She believed in and respected
that each child was as an individual,
that every child could learn, but did
not believe that all children must
necessarily learn in the same rote
manner. She observed kids falling
through the cracks because they
could not learn the same way as did
most other kids, who may have act-
ed out, and she had empathy for
them.
Thus, Mary formed classes of
kids other teachers did not want in
their classes (Maryreferredtothese
kids fondly as her wild boys) and
implemented creative teaching
methods and reached many. Mary
was very proud of her wild boys and
spoke of them often, but never by
name, the rest of her life.
In her early teaching days in Bel
Air, at the soda fountain in Boyd &
Fulford Pharmacy located on Main
Street, Mary met a handsome
young man, Gene Streett, a pharma-
cist at Boyd & Fulford. Gene and
Mary courted and on July 30, 1955,
were married at Holy Name Church
in Swoyersville, (Gene still has the
soda fountain booth in which they
met), and they then rented the lit-
tle stone house (still stands at cor-
ner of Main St. and Fulford Ave.) in
Bel Air and began to raise a family
and to scrimp and save for the fu-
ture.
In December 1956, Mary and
Gene welcomedintothe worldtheir
first son, Christopher (at which
point Mary gave up her teaching ca-
reer), followed by their second son,
Timothy, inMay1959, thirdson, Eu-
gene, in October 1962 (at which
point they moved to current resi-
dence on Gordon St., Bel Air), and
fourth son, Jonathan, in October
1963. In 1962, after Gene having
worked at Boyd and Fulford since
1945 when he started out as a 14-
year-old stock boy, Gene and Mary
purchased the pharmacy and have
continuously ownedandoperatedit
ever since (to 2012). A Bel Air insti-
tution, BoydandFulfordhas beenin
continuous operation for 120 years,
since 1892. Through the course and
conduct of her life and day-to-day
work at Boyd & Fulford, Mary her-
self became a Bel Air MainStreet in-
stitution.
A verbal historian of sorts,
through countless conversations
with countless pharmacy employ-
ees, customers, friends, acquaint-
ances, and pretty much whoever
cared to stop in and chat over the
past nearly six decades, Mary dis-
cussed and conveyed local history,
news, events, people and lore. No
matter who or what ones station in
life, Mary welcomed all with friend-
ly greeting, conversation and at
times motherly advice.
The operation of a small busi-
ness, especially a small town Main
Street pharmacy where customers
share with you their joys in life such
as having a newbaby as well as their
sorrows such as the diagnosis of an
unfortunate illness, was an intense-
ly personal affair that Mary under-
stood. It is a people business.
As Mary herself once said We
know the people, we care about the
people, we go out of our way for the
peopleand we keep it simple. All
are special andall have beenextend-
ed family and a treasure to Mary
(and Gene) over the decades and
generations. Mary was very in-
volved in community affairs
through her past involvement in the
Ladies Inner Wheel of Rotary, and
was very proud of her charity fun-
draising efforts and contribution as
a 30-year docent at Liriodendron
Mansion on Gordon Street in Bel
Air.
Outside of the pharmacy Marys
favorite pastimes were playing
bridge with close friends every
Thursday, getting away with hus-
band Gene to Ocean City, Md.,
when they could, being a mother
and grandmother and spending
time in the company of family and
friends.
Sadly, Mary Streett suffered a
massive stroke in late May (2012)
from which she courageously re-
bounded, but from which she suf-
feredlimitations. Thenthe morning
of Monday, August 20th, our dear
Mary suffered another massive
stroke to which she succumbed fa-
tally the evening of Saturday, Au-
gust 25, 2012.
God bless you, Mary. We love and
miss you and will be up to see you
someday.
Mary is survived by her husband
of 57 years, M. Eugene Streett; her
four sons #1Christopher (wife Mau-
reen) of Bel Air, Md.; #2 Timothy
(wife Cheryl and granddaughters,
Emma, Julia, Olivia) of Bel Air, Md.;
#3 Eugene (Tina) of Nokomis, Fla.;
#4 Jonathan (wife Audrey and
grandchildren Rebecca, Thomas,
Mitchell) of Fallston, Md.; as well
her brothers, Joseph Ryan and Leo
Ryan of Forty Fort, and many nieces
and nephews.
In life, Mary was predeceased by
her beloved father, Joseph Ryan,
and beloved mother, Mary Ryan.
Visitation will be held at McCo-
mas Funeral Home, P.A., Bel Air,
Md., on Wednesday, August 29,
2012 from 2 to 4 and 7 to 9 p.m. A
Mass of Christian Burial will take
place at St. Ignatius Catholic
Church, Forest Hill, Md., on Thurs-
day, August 30, 2012.

DOG BITES POSTAL CARRIER IN WILKES-BARRE
PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER
A letter carrier with the U.S. Postal Service was bitten by a dog in the area of 112 Wyoming
St., Wilkes-Barre, at about 10 a.m. Monday. Police did not release information about the
incident.
NUANGOLA Sewer author-
ity member Ray Shirk had a word
of alert for borough residents
who have not entered into ease-
ment agreements on proposed
grinder pump installations: They
have until Sept. 7 to sign and re-
turn the agreements to the au-
thority.
He said at Monday nights
meeting of the authority that 50
propertyowners have not respon-
ded to prior correspondence on
easements, andbecauseof this he
is preparinga letter, whichwill be
sent by registered mail, alerting
the residents to the deadline.
In addition, it was announced
at the meeting that representa-
tives of the Quad3 Group, the en-
gineering firm designing and
planning the sanitary sewer sys-
temproject, have scheduled a se-
ries of sessions with residents of
Blytheburn Road to outline how
the project will impact their prop-
erties.
The first is scheduled today at
6:30 p.m. at the borough building
followed by two others: Wednes-
day at 6:30 p.m. and on Satur-
dayat 10:30 a.m.

SCHOOLS OPEN
PRINGLE -- There will be
some new teaching techniques
and a focus on improvement in a
number of processes when West
Side Career andTechnology Cen-
ter students return to class next
week.
At the August meeting of the
schools joint operating commit-
tee on Monday, Administrative
Director Nancy Tkatch and Prin-
cipal Richard Rava spoke about
the ways the school will address
Average Yearly Progress scores
that Rava called not favorable.
The two administrators said
considerable time has been put
into analyzing the scores, which
included a math proficiency
score that dropped from around
20percent of student testingat or
above proficient level to less than
sevenpercent reachingthat level,
and a multipronged approach to
improvement is under way.
The use of hybrid learning
with computers integrated into
classroom instruction, cluster
teaching that pairs academic
teachers with shop teachers
working with the same group of
students, and increased enforce-
ment of attendance are some of
the aspects of the school im-
provement plan that is under
way.
Tkatch said efforts will also be
made to engage the nearly 545
students which includes 121
freshmen and 68 upperclassmen
in a culture change.
The perception is that they
come here to work with their
hands, Tkatch said, but the
workplace demands skilledwork-
ers. Its imperative that they learn
that they have to work with their
hands and their heads. Tkatch
said the school improvement
plan addresses this as well.

Selenskis appeal opposed
Prosecutors in the case of Hugo
Selenski who is charged in a double
murder have filed court papers with
the state Superior Court stating why
Selenski should not
be allowed to appeal a
county judges ruling.
Prosecutors said in
their filing that a
county judge properly
ruled on a request by
Selenski to have
charges against him
thrown out because
he had previously been charged with
homicide in another case involving two
different victims.
Selenski, 38, could face the death
penalty if convicted in the deaths of
Tammy Fassett and Michael Kerkow-
ski. Investigators allege Selenski killed
Fassett and Kerkowski on May 3, 2002.
He is tentatively scheduled to stand
trial beginning Sept. 10.
Prosecutors were required to file the
documents this week after Selenskis
attorneys last week filed court papers
detailing their reason for appealing
that Selenski had been previously pros-
ecuted on homicide charges.
Selenski had been previously
charged in the deaths of Frank James
and Adeiye Keiler in May 2003. A Lu-
zerne County jury acquitted Selenski of
the James and Keiler slayings in March
2006. But he was convicted of burning
their bodies at the Mount Olivet Road,
Kingston Township, home where he
lived at the time
The high court has not yet ruled on
the appeal or scheduled a hearing. The
appeal will likely delay the Sept. 10
trial.

A man captured in Connecticut last
week ona fugitive arrest warrant charg-
ing himwith an armed robbery inside a
Wilkes-Barre movie theater is sched-
uled for an extradition hearing next
month.
Sean Patrick Flavin, 33, is jailed at
the New Haven, Conn., Correctional
Center for lackof $95,000 bail oncharg-
es of interference of a police investiga-
tion and on the fugitive-from-justice
warrant.
Flavin surrendered after a several
hour standoff at a farm
house on Artillery
Road in Watertown,
Conn., on Aug. 22.
An arrest warrant
was issued by District
Judge Martin Kane in
Wilkes-Barre on Aug.
21 after city police
charged Flavin with an armed robbery
at Movies 14 on East Northampton
Street.
Police allege Flavinwas armedwitha
handgun and threatened Colin Henry
as Henry left the ticket office at about
10:30p.m. onAug. 19. Flavindemanded
the money bag and told Henry not to
watch himleave as he ran out the lobby
doors, according to the criminal com-
plaint.
Police releaseda photoof the suspect
to media outlets on Monday.
City police Det. Charles Jensen
stated in the complaint that Lydia Na-
perkowski recognized the person in the
picture as Flavin.
According to the complaint: Naper-
kowski said Flavin was staying at her
residence, sleeping on a couch and she
turned over a money bag she found un-
der a childs playpen to police. Henry
identified it as the money bag taken
from him, the complaint says.
Police say in the complaint Naper-
kowski had communicated with Flavin
on her cellphone and Flavin sent sever-
al text messages to Naperkowski after
the robbery.
Police secured a search warrant for
Naperkowskis cellphone records to de-
termine what Flavinmayhave textedto
her.
Flavin is scheduled for a court hear-
ing in Waterbury Superior Court in
Connecticut on Sept. 21.

PLYMOUTH TWP. -- Township Super-
visor Gale Conrad was relieved to receive
a letter from the Pennsylvania Emergency
Management Agency on Monday commit-
ting $265,000 for a new temporary access
road to the Tilbury Terrace neighbor-
hood.
The access route is needed to replace
Tilbury Terrace Road, which ripped apart
due to flood damage last July and Septem-
ber, Conrad said.
Traffic has been reduced to a single lane
on a section of the road for months, she
said.
Tilbury Terrace is the only roadway to
the neighborhood of 65 properties, she
said.
Its been a struggle for those folks, and
theyve been very good and patient, Con-
rad said.
Township Supervisor Joseph Yudichak
expects the temporary road project will be
bid out in two weeks.
Construction should take about six to
eight weeks.
Disaster funding also has been ap-
proved to redo Tilbury Terrace Road -- an
estimated $700,000 project, Yudichak
said. Conrad said Tilbury Terrace Road
will be impassable for at least three
months during the reconstruction.
She supports keeping the temporary
road after Tilbury Terrace Road is com-
pleted in case it sustains future flood dam-
age, but said township officials must dis-
cuss that possibility.
Conrad said a residential development
wouldnt be approved today without two
access roads for emergencies.
Residents have become increasingly
anxious over the wait for funding be-
cause they dont want to navigate the
damaged road a second winter, Conrad
said.
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Scranton, issued
a public statement earlier this month urg-
ing the Federal Emergency Management
Agency to speed up funding for the road.

DWARDSVILLE Woo-hooooo! Kmarts
back! shouted a woman walking into the
newly reopened store Monday.
That was the sentiment of just about everybody
who came to shop at the store on U.S. Route 11 that
was heavily damaged by flooding in September
2011, renovated and reopened Monday at 8 a.m.
The parking lot was filled, and inside, bright
white floors, ceilings and walls greeted faithful cus-
tomers who lamented time and again that they were
tired of having to cross the Susquehanna River to
shop.
Store manager Jim Soucy said new product lines,
wider aisles and expanded departments will make
the new store all the more popular with shoppers.
An official grand opening will be held Sept. 8.
Denise Talley greeted every customer walking
through the front door of the newly remodeled
Kmart .
Everybody has been so nice and they all are hap-
py that were open again, said Talley.
Soucy, who has been with Kmart for 42 years 11
in Edwardsville -- said the Edwardsville store ranks
in the top 10 percent in the Kmart chain for profit
and sales.
The decision to come back was easy, Soucy
said. Were the only large merchandise store in
town. This is a great town our customers missed
us and we missed them.
The store opened as a Kmart in October 1974,
Soucy said the same day Kmart opened stores in
Wilkes-Barre on Route 309 and in Moosic.
Norm and Kathleen Miller of Larksville were leav-
ing with a shopping cart filled with bags.
Were glad we can come here and no
longer have to travel over to Wilkes-
Barre. Most of the people Ive talked to
are excited that Kmart is back. We like it
here its like coming home again.

OPERATION BACKPACK GETS UNDER WAY
CLARK VAN ORDEN/THE TIMES LEADER
D
ave Garlinger and Shannon Doyne, both of Volunteers of America, and Meghan
Davis of the Wilkes-Barre Family YMCA unpack backpacks Monday at Volunteers of
America on South Main Street in Wilkes-Barre. The YMCA had partnered with the
VOA in Operation Backpack a promotion in which anyone who donated a backpack filled
with school supplies for children from low-income families at the Y would get an annual
membership for $20 a savings of more than $120 or $20 off a current members next
months membership fee. The Y folks delivered about 50 donated backpacks Monday.
this July than last but because
more people have re-entered the
job-seekers market, ballooning
the number of unemployed.
Its not good news the rate
went up, but its explainable,
said Steven Zellers, an analyst
with the Department of Labor
and Industrys Center for Work-
force Information & Analysis,
which released the data report
today.
Keystone College business
professor Dana Harris said the
larger labor force is a sign the
economy is improving slowly.
She said that while some
might see increasing unemploy-
ment rates as pointing the other
way, the numbers behind the
numbers tell a different story.
Were seeing slow, steady im-
provement, Harris said. If it
brings people back into the labor
force, thats a positive sign. She
said an uptick of 2.3 percent, or
6,500 more people looking for
work this year than last means
people are starting to feel confi-
dent about their chances to find
jobs.
But of all the numbers, the
most important one, accord-
ing to Anthony Liuzzo, director
of the master of business admin-
istration program at Wilkes Uni-
versity, is 2,300, the increase in
people working compared to a
year ago. That shows increased
confidence among employers
who have begun hiring and po-
tential employees who have be-
gun looking.
The increased unemployment
rate is simply a sign that people
are getting back into the labor
force and the job market is just
not able to support them at this
point, Liuzzo said.
At 9.6 percent, the three-coun-
ty regions seasonally adjusted
unemployment rate continued
to be the highest among Penn-
sylvanias 14 large labor markets.
Pennsylvanias seasonally ad-
justed unemployment rate in-
creased three-tenths of percent-
age point over the month to 7.9
percent, while the United States
rate increased one-tenth to 8.3
percent.
The local rate was up two-
tenths of a point over the year,
while Pennsylvanias rate was
down two-tenths of a point, and
the U.S. rate was down eight-
tenths.
The rate was up two-tenths
fromJune, affected in part by the
impact of schools letting out for
the summer. School bus driver
numbers were down, as were
school staff and support staff fig-
ures. But, Harris noted, when
compared to July 2011 those sec-
tors are ahead of pace, meaning
more people are working in
those jobs this year.
Following national trends, the
report showed an increase of
2,700 workers in private-sector
jobs and a decrease of 400 in gov-
ernment jobs compared to July
2011.
A look at the unemployment
situation in Luzerne, Lackawan-
na and Wyoming counties indi-
vidually shows the rate up in
each, the biggest increase regis-
tered in Lackawanna County,
from 8.6 percent to 9.1 percent.
Luzerne tickedup from9.8 to 9.9
percent and Wyoming climbed
from 9 to 9.2 percent.
Two of the regions three large-
st cities also sawunemployment
rate hikes, Zellers said. Wilkes-
Barres was up four-tenths of a
percentage point to 11.4; Scran-
tons rose eight-tenths to 9.9 and
Hazleton remained static at 14.9
percent. Jobs were added in all
three cities though, the report
shows.

WILKES-BARRE A city man
sentencedinlateJuneto7to15
years in state prison on charges
he participated in a $3.5 million
cocaine distribution ring will re-
port to prison on Oct. 31, a coun-
ty judge said Monday.
Ronald Molnar, 40, of Joseph
Lane, had originally been sched-
uled to begin serving his sen-
tence on Thursday, but asked for
another 60 days to undergo reha-
bilitation for recent surgery.
Judge David Lupas said the
case has gone on for quite some
time Molnar was charged after
a 2008 investigation and original-
ly pleaded guilty in April 2010 to
drug charges, but withdrew
those charges this year, only to
re-enter a guilty plea in June,
when he was then sentenced.
Lupas said because of the
unique circumstances he
wouldallowMolnar the addition-
al 60 days to attend rehabilita-
tion. Any rehabilitation after
that, Lupas said, could be ad-
dressed within the Department
of Corrections.
Molnar thanked the judge
Monday, noting it is difficult for
him to care for himself because
he is wheelchair bound and relies
mostly on his arms. Molnar had
beeninjuredina motorcycle acci-
dent andhas receivedseveral sur-
geries.
Lupas said Molnar must abide
by conditions of his bail and re-
port to the county prison to be
thentransportedto a state prison
on Oct. 31.
Deputy Attorney General Tim
Doherty opposed Molnars re-
quest, noting in court papers that
allowing Molnar any additional
time out of prison would be de-
meaning the severity and impor-
tance of (Molnars) sentence.
Prosecutors say Molnar partic-
ipated in the drug ring operated
by members of the Outlaws Mo-
torcycle Club, which distributed
cocaine throughout the area be-
ginning in July 2008.
Deputy Attorney General Tim
Doherty has previously said Mol-
nar made hundreds of calls from
his house and cellphone about
the purchase and delivery of co-
caine.

Syrian copter crashes
A
Syrian military helicopter crashed
in a ball of fire Monday after appar-
ently being hit during clashes between
government forces and rebels in the
capital Damascus, activists said, in a
sign of the fighters growing abilities as
they struggle to topple President Bash-
ar Assads regime.
A video posted on the Internet
showed the chopper engulfed in flames
and spinning out of control shortly
before it hit the ground amid bursts of
gunfire near a mosque. Rebels shout
Allahu Akbar! or God is great, as the
helicopter went down. The authen-
ticity of the video could not be inde-
pendently verified.
In Paris, French President Francois
Hollande ratcheted up the diplomatic
pressure on the already isolated Assad
regime, calling on the Syrian opposi-
tion to form a provisional government
and saying France would recognize it
once it was formed.
CINCINNATI
Armstrong service Friday
A private service is planned in Cin-
cinnati on Friday for astronaut Neil
Armstrong, the first man to walk on
the moon, and President Barack Oba-
ma has ordered U.S. flags to be flown
at half-staff.
The Ohio native died Saturday in
Cincinnati at age 82.
Obama on Monday issued a procla-
mation calling for U.S. flags to be low-
ered the day of Armstrongs burial,
including at the White House, military
posts and ships, U.S. embassies and
other public buildings as a mark of
respect for the memory of Neil Arm-
strong.
Ohio Gov. John Kasich on Monday
had Ohio flags on all public buildings
and grounds flown at half-staff through
Friday.
NEW YORK
NYC shooting defended
New York City Police Commissioner
Raymond Kelly is defending two offi-
cers decision to kill an armed gunman
outside the Empire State Building,
which led to nine bystanders being
wounded.
Kelly on Monday called the shooting
appropriate since the officers had just
been told Jeffrey Johnson had killed a
co-worker around the corner and John-
son was pointing his weapon at them.
That assessment is supported by ex-
perts on police tactics and firepower.
Police say Johnson, a womens acces-
sories designer, ambushed a vice presi-
dent of the company that had laid him
off. The officers confronted him as he
tried to slip away in a throng of pedes-
trians.

killed by shabiha pro-government
militiamen being buried in a mass
grave in Daraya, Syria. Activists say
government forces retook the Da-
mascus suburb from rebel control
three days ago and have since gone

LUDOWICI, Ga. Four Army soldiers
based in southeast Georgia killed a former
comrade and his girlfriend to protect an an-
archist militia group they formedthat stock-
piled assault weapons and plotted a range of
anti-government attacks, prosecutors told a
judge Monday.
Prosecutors in rural Long County, near
the sprawling Army post Fort Stewart, said
the militia group composed of active duty
and former U.S. military members spent at
least $87,000buyingguns andbombcompo-
nents and was serious enough to kill two
people former soldier Michael Roark and
his 17-year-old girlfriend, Tiffany York by
shooting them in the woods last December
in order to keep its plans secret.
This domestic terrorist organization did
not simply plan and talk, prosecutor Isabel
Pauley told a Superior Court judge. Prior
to the murders in this case, the group took
action. Evidence shows the grouppossessed
the knowledge, means and motive to carry
out their plans.
One of the Fort Stewart soldiers charged
in the case, Army Pfc. Michael Burnett, also
gave testimony that backed up many of the
assertions made by prosecutors. The 26-
year-old soldier pleaded guilty Monday to
manslaughter, illegal gang activity and oth-
er charges. He made a deal to cooperate
with prosecutors in their case against the
three other soldiers.
Prosecutors said the group called itself
F.E.A.R., short for Forever Enduring Always
Ready. Pauley said authorities dont know
how many members the militia had.
Burnett, 26, said he knew the groups
leaders from serving with them at Fort
Stewart. He agreed to testify against fellow
soldiers Pvt. Isaac Aguigui, identified by
prosecutors as the militias founder and
leader, Sgt. Anthony Peden and Pvt. Chris-
topher Salmon.

NEW YORK Teens who
routinely smoke marijuana risk
a long-term drop in their IQ, a
new study suggests.
The researchers didnt find
the same IQ dip for people who
became frequent users of pot af-
ter 18. Although experts said the
new findings are not definitive,
they do fit in with earlier signs
that the drug is especially harm-
ful to the developing brain.
Parents should understand
that their adolescents are partic-
ularly vulnerable, said lead re-
searcher Madeline Meier of
Duke University.
Study participants from New
Zealandwere testedfor IQat age
13, likely before any significant
marijuana use, and again at age
38. The mental decline between
those two ages was seen only in
those who started regularly
smoking pot before age 18.
Richie Poulton, a study co-au-
thor and professor at the Univer-
sity of Otago in New Zealand,
said the message of the research
is to stay away from marijuana
until adulthood if possible. For
some its a legal issue, he said,
but for me its a health issue.
Pot smoking is relatively com-
mon in American teens. The
government reported in June
that 23 percent of high school
students said theyd recently
smoked marijuana, making it
more popular than cigarettes.
Young people dont think its
risky, said Staci Gruber, a re-
searcher at the Harvard-affiliat-
ed MacLean Hospital in Bel-
mont, Mass. Gruber, who didnt
participate in the newwork, said
the idea that marijuana harms
the adolescent brain is some-
thing we believe is very likely,
and the new finding of IQ de-
clines warrants further investi-
gation.

KABUL, Afghanistan Insurgents beheaded17 people at a
partyina Taliban-controlledarea, andanAfghansoldier killed
two U.S. troops, bringing the two-day death toll Monday to
about 30.
Near-daily attacks by militants and increasingly frequent
deadly violence against NATO troops by their Afghan allies
highlight an embarrassing failure of Western policy: After
nearly12 years of military intervention, the country is not pac-
ified. OncetheUnitedStates andother countries pull out their
troops, chaos seems almost certaintoreturnandTalibandom-
ination in large parts of the country is hardly implausible.
The beheadings occurred in southern Helmand, the same
province where more than100 insurgents attacked an Afghan
army checkpoint and killed 10 soldiers.
Helmand was the centerpiece of President Barack Obamas
surge, when he ordered 33,000 additional U.S troops to Af-
ghanistan to help the military with a counterinsurgency plan.
That plan hoped to turn the tide in Helmand and neighboring
Kandahar and establish the governmental institutions that
wouldallowtheAfghangovernment totakecontrol of theTali-
ban heartland.
Two years later, however, Helmand is still so lawless that
Afghan government officials couldnt even go to the Taliban-
controlled town where the beheadings were reported. Many
Afghans in the south, the Talibans birthplace and the home of
the countrys Pashtun speaking population, are leery of a gov-
ernment that many consider to be corrupt and ineffective.
The problem is compounded by a rapid reduction in Amer-
ican and international aid, which fueled most of the growth in
the south in recent years. Afghanistan, one of the worlds 10
poorest countries, has received nearly $60 billion in civilian
aidsince 2002. Nowit stands toreceive $16billion, or about $4
billion a year, in the next four years. By comparison, the U.S.
alone spent that much in 2010.
Analysts also say that a public worn down by a war that be-
gan just a month after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks no longer
cares about Afghanistan, and that the war has slipped off the
radar screens and is now considered by many to be over.
The problem with this attitude is that Afghanistan or
whatever the crisis may be has a life of its own. Men and
women keep dying, and U.S. policies keep accelerating the
centrifugal forces that are driving the country toward civil
conflict, which may have profound implications for future re-
gional and international security, said Sarah Chaynes, a se-
nior associate with the Carnegie Endowment for Internation-
al Peace, in a commentary published Sunday.

WILKES-BARRE Aprelimi-
nary hearing has been sched-
uled for a teen charged in the
shooting death of his great-
grandfather.
District Judge James Tupper
scheduled the hearing for Cody
Lee, 19, on Sept. 21.
Lee, who was charged in De-
cember 2009, has not yet had a
hearing due to the uncertainty
of which court would hear his
case.
Earlier this month, Judge Jo-
seph Sklarosky Jr. ruled Lees
case would be heard in adult
court after Lees attorneys ar-
gued that because Lee was 16
years old at the time of the
shooting, the case should be
heard by a juvenile court judge.
Lees attorneys recently ap-
pealedthe rulingtothe state Su-
perior Court.
The appeal should not delay
the preliminary hearing.
Attorneys Peter Paul Olszew-
ski, Melissa Scartelli and Char-
les Rado filed the appeal shortly
after Sklaroskys ruling.
The attorneys had previously
argued that Lee made state-
ments unknowingly to investi-
gators and suffered from hy-
pothermia when he was taken
into custody after spending sev-
eral hours in the woods. Acoun-
ty senior judge later threw out
statements Lee made to investi-
gators.
Sklarosky said in an opinion
that he did not feel Lees case
was appropriate for juvenile
court after hearing five days of
testimony regarding the attor-
neys request.
Last week, prosecutors asked
that Tupper schedule a prelimi-
nary hearing where testimony
in the case would be taken to de-
termine if prosecutors have es-
tablished enough evidence to
bring charges against Lee and
that Lee be returned to the
county prison within 20 days.
Lee has been housed at Adol-
phi Village Middle Creek Male
Secure Treatment Facility in
WestmorelandCounty since Oc-
tober 2010. He has not yet been
returned to the county prison.
State police at Wyoming and
Luzerne County detectives al-
lege Cody killedhis great-grand-
father, 80-year-old Herbert Lee,
with a single shot to the head
from a rifle just after 5:30 p.m.
on Dec. 9, 2009.
Lee planned to kill his father,
Scott Lee, who managed to
wrestle the rifle away from his
son, according to arrest records.
Investigators allege Cody Lee
shared his intention to kill his

police are investigating an
armed robbery at 363 S. Fran-

A man whose identity was not
released told police he was on
the porch using a laptop com-

by another man aiming a hand-
gun at his head at about 1:30
a.m. The gunman demanded the
computer and ran away toward
South Main Street.
The Beacon, the student
newspaper at Wilkes University,
reported Monday the victim is a
student at the university.
Police described the gunman
as a black man and wore a ski
mask, a black shirt and gray
pants.
In another incident involving
Wilkes University students, the
newspaper reported Monday on

Writer: Prove identity
if you intend to vote
W
hy are so many people complaining
about getting a photo ID to vote? You
have to have a photo ID for just about
anything: for example, to purchase alcohol
or tobacco products, and operate a motor
vehicle. College students have photo IDs,
and people in nursing homes, most of
whom vote by absentee ballot, have their
identities certified by the administrator of
the home.
Some of our local legislators state that
an abundance of people lack a Social Secu-
rity card. How do they get employment
without one? Another one of our legisla-
tors talked about training poll workers on
the photo ID law. How much training do
you require to compare a photo ID to the
face of the person presenting it?
In my opinion, the bottom line is you
have to prove who you say you are.

Pittston pedestrian fears
for safety of city walkers
I
usually walk (weather permitting) for
my daily exercise in Pittston and I am
amazed that the drivers apparently can-
not read the new crossing signs that state
yield to pedestrians in crosswalks.
These signs were a long time coming to
the city. But after constant complaining to
Pittston officials (both police and City
Hall) and to state Rep. Mike Carroll, they
finally got three signs and put them in the
Main Street crosswalks. But this does not
help with attempting to cross the street.
Drivers do not stop.
Maybe the police should park near those
signs and ticket those drivers; they would
make millions.
Earlier this year there was a pedestrian
struck near the Fort Jenkins Bridge while
using a crosswalk. Main Street is a speed-
way even though the limit is supposed to
be 25 mph. People have no chance to cross
safely.
I almost have been struck numerous
times and when I yell at the drivers they
just look up as if to say: What am I sup-
posed to do? You were in the way.
They still text quite a bit on Main Street.
Does somebody have to be killed for coun-
cil to have the police enforce a state law on
these drivers?
I have a good lawyer and if I become one
of the victims of poor drivers along Main
Street, I (if I survive) will be more than
happy to take them all to court and bank-
rupt the city.

While rich reap benefits,
the rest of U.S. suffers
I
ve been flip-flopping between political
parties lately. Every time I seem to lean
one way, I find that side has lied. It just
keeps bouncing.
What I do know is that the elite have
killed the American dream not so much
as though it was a concerted effort, but
more so as a result of greed. You must pay
the masters to live today. Unless youre
rich, you must get a loan to buy a car to
get to your job and to get a house. If you
want better pay, you must get a loan for an
obscenely expensive education and pay
interest.
School subsidies created colleges that no
longer thought of students welfare, but
instead created a competitive atmosphere
that drove up costs for things such as spas,
climbing walls and salaries.
What needs to happen is cutbacks on the
extravagances that got us here. Bain Cap-
ital tried to make companies profitable. It
profited from the outcome regardless. Jobs
were sent overseas. As for the companies
that were saved and the people who still
have jobs because their companies didnt
shut down, the left will ignore this. As for
the people who did lose their jobs to lower-
paid workers overseas, Bains investors
made millions. I dont think people such as
GOP presidential candidate Mitt Romney
intend to harm American workers. I think
they simply dont care.
It comes down to a culture of caring
only for ones self for the sake of ever-
increasing profit.
Obama cant fix this. Romney cant fix
this. It is a cultural paradigm that has to be
eradicated. For 10 to 20 years before the
crash we were on a rollercoaster that only
went down. Yes, its a lot of fun and every-
one is happy, but it must end. Growth like
that cannot be sustained indefinitely.
We rose as a country, together. Now we
are falling as individuals as a small per-
centage of people reap everything at the
expense of the rest. None of us mind if
youre successful, just as long as you dont
get there by trampling on our backs.
Taxes for the ultra rich are at the lowest
theyve ever been in the United States, and
yet the right is complaining that raising
taxes on them will impede job growth. The
ultra rich dont create jobs. They create
nothing, absolutely nothing! They make
money through capital gains which, in
essence, moves money from one place to
another. It creates nothing but wealth for
those who hold it.
It is the less-rich who create jobs. But
these are not the people we are talking
about. People who make a few million
dollars a year are not the enemy.
The enemy is those who make a few
billion dollars a year doing nothing but
trading in oil stocks and the like, and driv-
ing up the cost of living for the rest of us
for their own benefit. The sooner the left
learns how to define this, and the sooner
the right learns what is actually going on,
the sooner we might recognize just who,
not Republican or Democrat, is to blame
for all of this.
The president cannot fix this alone no
matter who he/she is. The outrage of the
American people is our only hope.

Detain and imprison
called unconscionable
T
here is nothing more precious to Amer-
icans than our God-ordained rights as
set out in the Constitution.
Many served in the U.S. Armed Forces
defending these rights for every American,
and now President Barack Obama has
given the power through the National
Defense Authorization Act to round up,
detain and imprison American citizens in
the United States, denying them their
constitutional rights. Whats more, he has
the legal authority to use the military to
perform these unconscionable acts.
As a resident of Pennsylvania, I am call-
ing upon Gov. Tom Corbett to publicly
denounce the detain and imprison provi-
sions of the NDAA, and I demand that the
governor not cooperate with the federal
government or its agents in the perform-
ance of these unconstitutional actions.

F CONGRESS FAILS to
act before the start of next
year, the economy will
again fall into recession
and growth for all of 2013 will
be limited to only 1.9 percent.
Thats the latest prediction
fromtheCongressional Budget
Office. Its outlook is substan-
tially gloomier than at the be-
ginning of the year.
The galling thing about this
is we need not have gotten to
this point had Congress come
to a reasonable agreement on
solving a fiscal cliff thats
beenstaringevery lawmaker in
the face for months.
But thanks to the continuing
stalemate, on Jan. 1 the econo-
my will be whacked by nearly
$500 billion in tax increases
and spending cuts. Thats a lot
to yank out of an already weak
economy, one thats weaker
than previously predicted, as
the CBO put it.
Neither party, however,
seems willing to step out of its
now accustomed role. Each ac-
cuses the other of being stub-
born and unreasonable. Thats
unacceptable because the in-
creasing risk that Congress
cant come up with a reasona-
ble solution in time is already
an economic drag.
Congress and the White
House need to deal with this
threat well before the deadline.

OTHER OPINION: FISCAL CLIFF
Stubborn Congress

D
ARE YOU!
Often those words
are spoken only by
troublemakers in
schoolyards, study halls and
cafeterias as a way of goading
their gullible peers into doing
something ill-advised and like-
ly to result in a hurried trip to
the nurses office, such as
Dare you to mix that choco-
late pudding into
your spaghetti sauce
and eat it. Or, dare
you to lick that frigid
flagpole.
Students return-
ing to area class-
rooms this month,
however, should
know that a certain
amount of healthy
risk-taking is admira-
ble, even necessary. Its up to
grown-ups to remind them so.
Talk to students about expand-
ing their comfort zones. About
setting goals and preparing to
reachthem. About the extreme
importance of merely trying.
As a conversation starter, we
offer this:
Dare to raise your hand and
be heard. Dare to participate in
sports and hobbies. Dare to
make a newfriend. Dare to end
anoldfriendship that is caus-
ing you endless grief or bring-
ingout your worst side. Dareto
show others that you are
smart. Dare to admit you dont
know the answer. Dare to re-
fuse to go along with the
crowd. Dare toreport suspect-
ed wrongdoing to the proper
authority figure. Dare to in-
clude the person who is differ-
ent. Dare tomake music. Dare
to dance. Dare to be yourself.
Dare to fail miserably. Dare to
get back up (again and again).
Dare toaskfor help. Dare toex-
cel. Dare to envision you can
change the world.
Regrettably, it might take a
bold, younger generation to in-
still the rest of the United
States with some derring do,
once the hallmark of this na-
tion. Courage exhibited by the
likes of the Founding Fathers,
the late astronaut
Neil Armstrong
and others the
big dreamers and
doers seems to
be in short supply
among many
adults these days.
Chalk it up to the
terrorism of Sep-
tember 2001 or
maybe the 2007-
09 recession. In Luzerne Coun-
ty, the public corruption scan-
dals of 2009 further squelched
certain peoples spirits.
Historians will distill the
precise reasons. But the reality
is this: When your fellow citi-
zens are unnerved by simple
acts suchas shoppingfor a new
car, changing jobs or visiting a
movie theater, America has
lost its moxie.
The solution today is as ele-
mentary as it is elusive: a cer-
tainamount of healthyrisk-tak-
ing. For starters, may we echo
this advice?
Dare to raise your hand and
be heard Dare to report sus-
pected wrongdoing to the
proper authority figure Dare
to make music. Dare to dance
Dare to be yourself. Dare to
fail miserably. Dare to get back
up (again and again) Dare to
envision you can change the
world.

TAMPA, Fla. --
Sunday evening
there was a huge
event at Tropica-
na Field, home of
the Tampa Bay
Rays, managedbyHazletons Joe
Maddon, which opened up the
stadiumto the entire delegation.
It was a really great event with
live music.
OnMonday, there was a break-

fast with Gov. TomCorbett but
nothing really special happened.
After breakfast, there was an
event at the Florida Aquarium.
(New Jersey Gov.) Chris Chris-
tie was supposed to be at the
event, but he did not attend -- ve-
ry disappointing.
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Ha-

zleton, arrived Monday. He was
greeted like a rock star by many
when he entered the Pennsylva-
nia Delegation hospitality room
in the hotel. He took a few pic-
tures and shook many hands.
As for Monday night, there

was anevent hostedby the Penn-
sylvania Speaker of the House
Sam Smith in the hotel.
In regard to delegates, there is

a little bit of wrangling in regard
to the power a presidential can-
didate can have in shaping the
Republican platform. This is
mostly coming from pro-life ac-
tivists. The
wrangling
deals with
moderate dele-
gates who
might not be as
conservative
on the issue of
pro-life.
Overall, its been relatively

slowsince there are not many of-
ficial events going on, but every-
body is having a great time. We
have the distinction of staying
with the Nevada delegation in
the same hotel, so weve been
having a great time meeting new
people as well as seeing old
friends as well.
It looks like the weather is go-

ing to miss us mostly here in
Tampa. Despite false alarms that
there was a fire in the Philadel-
phia airport, everything has
gone smoothly thus far.
Events for Monday have been
postponed, but it certainly
seems like that wont stop the
delegates and guests from Penn-
sylvania from having a good
time.

A large, slow-moving system
is going to pose a lot of prob-
lems: winds, flooding, storm
surge and even potentially down
the road river flooding, said Ri-
chard Knabb, director of the Na-
tional Hurricane Center in Mia-
mi. That could happen for days
after the event.
The storms potential for de-
struction was not lost on Alaba-
ma farmer Bert Driskell, who
raises peanuts, cotton, wheat,
cattle and sod on several thou-
sand acres near Grand Bay, in
Mobile County.
We dont need a lot of water
this close to harvest, Driskell
said.
However, Isaac could bring
some relief to places farther in-
land where farmers have strug-
gled with drought. It also may
help replenish a Mississippi Riv-
er that has at times been so low
that barge traffic is halted so en-
gineers can scrape the bottomto
deepen it.
Forecasters predicted Isaac
would intensify into a Category
2 hurricane, with winds of about
100 mph, by early Wednesday
around the time its expected to
make landfall. The current fore-
cast trackhas the stormaimedat
New Orleans, but hurricane
warnings extended across 280
miles from Morgan City, La., to
theFlorida-Alabama stateline. It
could become the first hurricane
to hit the Gulf Coast since 2008.
Evacuations were ordered for
some low-lying areas and across
the region, people boarded up
homes, stocked up on supplies
and got ready for the storm.
Schools, universities and busi-
nesses closed in many places.
Still, all the preparation may
not matter if flooding becomes
the greatest threat. In Pascagou-
la, Miss., Nannette Clark was su-
pervising a work crew installing
woodcoverings over windows of
her more than 130-year-old
home. But she said all that wont
matter if a storm surge reaches
her home, as it did after Katrina
in 2005.
The water was up to the first
landing of the stairs, she said.
So I get very nervous about it.
Isaacs approach on the eve of
the Katrina anniversary invited
obvious comparisons, but Isaac
is nowhere near as powerful as
the Katrina was when it struck
on Aug. 29, 2005. Katrina at one
point reached Category 5 status
with winds of over 157 mph. It
made landfall as a Category 3
storm and created a huge storm
surge.
Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency officials said the
updated levees around New Or-
leans are equipped to handle
storms stronger than Isaac. Lev-
eefailures ledtothecatastrophic
flooding in the area after Katri-
na.
Its a much more robust sys-
temthanwhat it was whenKatri-
na came ashore, said FEMAAd-
ministrator Craig Fugate in a
conference call with reporters.
In New Orleans, officials had
no plans to order evacuations
and instead told residents to
hunker down and make do with
the supplies they had.
Its going to be all right, said
New Orleans Mayor Mitch Lan-
drieu.
Isaac could pack a watery dou-
ble punch for the Gulf Coast. If it
hits duringhightide, Isaac could
push floodwaters as deep as 12
feet onto shore in Louisiana,
Mississippi and Alabama and up
to 6 feet in the Florida Panhan-
dle, whiledumpingupto18inch-
es of rainover the region, the Na-
tional Weather Service warned.
On the Alabama coast, Billy
Cannon, 72, was preparing to
evacuate with several cars
packed with family and four Chi-
huahuas froma home ona penin-
sula in Gulf Shores. Cannon,
who has lived on the coast for 30
years, said he thinks the order to
evacuate Monday was prema-
ture.
If it comes in, its just going to
be a big rain storm. I think they
overreacted, but I understand
where theyre coming from. Its
safety, he said.
The stormleft 24deadinHaiti
and the Dominican Republic,
but left little damage in the Flor-
ida Keys as it blewpast. It prom-
ised a soaking but little more for
Tampa, where the planned Mon-
day start of the Republican Na-
tional Convention was pushed
back because of the storm.
Only a fraction of an expected
5,000 demonstrators turned out
in Tampa to protest GOP eco-
nomic and social policies out-
side the convention. Organizers
blamed Isaac and a massive po-
lice presence for their weak
showing.

DeSanto was scheduled to be
interviewed about the allega-
tions by the boardat10a.m. Mon-

ment just before the interview,
said William Finnegan, the
boards solicitor.
Oprendick and Finnegan said
they could not comment on the
nature of the allegations because
it could jeopardize the contin-
uing investigation.
DeSanto had served as execu-
tive director since September
1998. He previously served in
other capacities inthe authoritys
administration for 18 years. Hes
also well-known around the re-
gion as the district administrator
of Little League District 16.
Finnegan said DeSanto is eligi-
ble for a pension fromthe author-
ity. It was not immediately clear
what, if any, effect the investiga-
tion might have on the pension.
Thats being looked into as
part of the investigation, Finne-
gan said.
Finnegan, who has served as
solicitor for about two years, also
works as a part-time assistant dis-
trict attorney for Luzerne Coun-

RETIRES
TAMPA, Fla. Republicans
launched Mitt Romneys nation-
al convention Monday with the
bang of a gavel before a smatter-
ing of delegates as Tropical
Storm Isaac led them to cancel
most of the opening-day pro-
gram.
Party Chairman Reince Prie-
bus calledthe gatheringtoorder,
citing convention rules requir-
ing a 2 p.m. Monday start, and
then immediately recessed the
session. It took less than two
minutes.
Priebus then instructed dele-
gates to look up at two debt
clocks one that reflects the
actual national debt and a sec-
ond that counts how much the
debt will grow during the con-
vention. It was quickly in six fig-
ures.
The convention will hit full
speed today, just as forecasters
say the storm could reach hurri-
cane strength and make landfall
somewhere between Mississippi
and New Orleans.
Our sons are already in Tam-
pa and they say its terrific there,
a lot of great friends. And were
looking forward to a great con-
vention, Romney said Monday
outside a New Hampshire high
school auditorium where he re-
hearsed his convention speech.
He said he hoped those in the
storms path would be spared
any major destruction but indi-
cated there were no thoughts of
canceling the convention in
Tampa, where Isaacs heavy rain
had all but passed.
It was hardly the opening
splash that convention planners
had hoped for, and it risked the
juxtaposition of Republicans
partying as the storm barrels to-
ward land almost exactly sev-
en years after Hurricane Katrina
devastated New Orleans.
Priebus was long gone from
the podium when a handful of
Ron Paul supporters hollered
their support for the defeated
presidential contender in a brief
impromptu gathering at the rear
of the convention hall.
They held up placards bearing
Pauls name in front of a perma-
nent sign that read, We Can Do
Better. The sign was there for
Romneys purposes meant to
showthat he couldfix the econo-
my but Pauls backers appro-
priated it for their own use.
Pauls delegates are trying to
mount a floor fight over new
GOP rules designed to limit the
ability of insurgent presidential
candidates to amass delegates to
future Republican conventions.

risk groups such as the elderly.
According to DEP, most peo-
ple dont get sick from contract-
ing West Nile encephalitis, an in-
flammation of the brain. Those
who become infected can expe-
rience a fever, rash, headache,
meningitis, encephalitis or
death. Older adults and people
with lower-functioning immune
systems are the most suscepti-
ble to developing the disease, in-
cluding those with HIV, a recent
organ transplant or someone
whos undergoing chemother-
apy.
Krawetz was the first county
resident to test positive this
year, according to the DEP. He
and two others tested positive
on Monday, bringing the total
number of humans statewide
testing positive for either West
Nile Fever or West Nile encepha-
litis to12 this year with peak sea-
son still to come.
Last year, there were six hu-
man positives for the virus, one
as late as Oct. 6, said Kait Gillis,
a state Department of Health
spokeswoman. But there were
no deaths.
Since data was first collected
on the disease in 2000, 26 people
have died statewide from the vi-
rus. Nine died in both 2002 and
2003 and two died in 2004, 2005
and 2006. The local mans death
was the first in the state since
2006.
VIRUS
Individuals can take a number of
precautionary measures around
their homes to help eliminate
mosquito-breeding areas, in-
cluding:
Dispose of cans, buckets, plastic
containers, ceramic pots or similar
containers that hold water.
Properly dispose of discarded
tires that can collect water. Stag-

We couldnt wait to get
Kmart back, Norm said. Its
really beautiful; much bright-
er.
Were glad we can come here
and no longer have to travel
over to Wilkes-Barre, said De-
nise Dalley . Most of the peo-
ple Ive talked to are excited
that Kmart is back. We like it
here its like coming home
again.
Some customers had difficul-
ty adjusting to the new layout
and had to ask for directions.
Mollie Hardin brought her
two children, Devin, 10, and Ki-
ley, 9, to do some back-to-
school shopping.
Its so convenient here, she
said.
Soucy said Acadia Realty of
White Plains, N.Y., owns the
plaza. He said he has heard ru-
mors of other stores coming in,
but he couldnt confirm any-
thing. Four other pre-flood ten-
ants Payless Shoes, Dollar
General, The Bounce Place and
Redners Supermarket have
not returned.
Amessage left at Acadia Real-
ty was not returned.
We look different, Soucy
said. Were totally new. De-
partments have been relocated,
we have an extended pantry
with15 coolers and more frozen
foods, and our pet center has
been expanded. We have a new
electronic center and weve
added major appliances.
And Nathans Hot Dogs is at
the front of the store near the
checkout lanes.
Theres always a line there
too, Soucy said.

Kmart store manager Jim Soucy keeps busy on Monday monitor-

said Robert Maiden, PACD exec-
utive director. Were definitely
excited to see the headway being
made to mitigate stream dis-
charge and increase the counties
economic vitality.
Karl Brown, SCC executive
secretary, said the tour provided
an opportunity to see conserva-
tion practices installed by local
conservation districts and their
partners. He said these best-man-
agement practices have effective-
ly reduced the impact of mine
drainage on the areas streams
and dramatically improved local
water quality.
Robert Hughes, EPCAMR ex-
ecutivedirector, saidthepolluted
creek has damaged the environ-
ment along the Sans Souci Park-
way. He said no aquatic life exists
in the section of the streamand if
humans drank the water, they
would get extremely sick.
Corrective action is needed, he
said, andthe agencies that toured
thesites haveties withstatefund-
ing sources. He said technology
is available to remove the iron
from the water.
The tests weve seen have
shown the iron levels at 30 milli-
grams per liter, Hughes said.
Normal readings would be .3
milligrams per liter.
Hughes said the sites in both
counties have connections to the
states major waterways. The Old
Forge borehole streams directly
into the Lackawanna River, a ma-
jor tributary to the Susquehanna
River.
Hughes said the three bore
holes in Solomon Creek measure
42 inches in diameter and handle
10,000 to 20,000 gallons of water
per minute. He said the orange
color tothe water is causedbyox-
idation when the water interacts
with the air.

plete his report with recommen-

T
he will to win is a lot stronger for
the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yan-
kees than the temptation to cave
in.
That has never been more obvious
than during a season that should have
been tumultuous but somehow turned
out terrific for the team.
It came into this season facing an
unimaginable obstacle, having to play
every single game on the road while
Scranton/Wilkes-Barres own stadium,
PNC Field, was being remodeled for
next year.
As if that wasnt challenging enough,
what came next would have destroyed
most minor league teams.
Top pitching prospects Dellin Be-
tances and Manny Banuelos both bot-
tomed out while trying to reach the
top, taking a beating at the Triple-A
level before suffering injuries.
While quickly losing two-fifths of
their projected starting rotation pretty
early may have been painful enough for
the SWB Yankees, they lost the heart of
their batting order within the last
month when DeWayne Wise, now
playing for the Chicago White Sox, was
promoted to New York, and sluggers
Jack Cust and Steve Pearce were re-
leased from the organization.
Does it look like Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre became disorganized over all of
this?
The Yankees went into Monday
nights game against Lehigh Valley
with a whopping 80 victories, and
looking to clinch the International
League North Division title.
We feel good, Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre catcher Francisco Cervelli said.
Even though this seasons been a little
crazy, to win a lot of games and to be in
first place will make people feel differ-
ently about this team.
Most people around baseball just felt
sorry for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre when
the season began.
The grind of a 144-game minor
league schedule is challenging enough
when teams play half their games in a
home ballpark. It becomes doubly
difficult when you cant play any of
those games at home.
Ahh, we stopped talking about that
the first week of the season, SWB
Yankees manager Dave Miley scowled
with a dismissive wave.
Maybe thats why his Yankees have
been so successful.
The move-ahead mindset starts with
manager Dave Miley, who was once in
the major leagues managing the Cin-
cinnati Reds and deserves to get there
again after the job hes done with
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre this season.
He doesnt say much, Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre prospect Brandon Laird
said. He just keeps it loose, lets us
play.
Most importantly, he doesnt let his
team sulk.
It was difficult in the beginning,
Cervelli said of Scranton/Wilkes-
Barres 2012 road show. Everybody
was making a lot of complaints. You
realize nothings going to change and
nobodys going to change it.
Nobody could have predicted the
roster would change so drastically,
though.
When Ray Kruml, Cust and Pearce
the Nos. 2, 3 and 4 hitters from the
opening day lineup were released a
couple weeks ago, it left the Yankees
with just three players still in the

EXETER For the first two years of
his high school career, Mariano Medico
picked up just one tournament victory
becausehehadtroublegettingpast Pitt-
ston Areas Brandon Matthews.
WithMatthews, a former PIAAcham-
pion now at Temple, Medico had little
trouble breaking into the win column at
the Wyoming Valley Conferences Pre-
season Tryba Invitational.
The Holy Redeemer junior not only
claimed his first Tryba title, but broke
Matthews tournament record by firing
3-under 68 at Fox Hill Country Club be-
sting the previous mark by one stroke.
Medico earned the win by shooting
mostlypar golf onthecourse, nettingan
eagle on the par-5 No. 6 hole and bird-
ieing Nos. 9 and12. If not for a bogey on
No. 13, Medico would have posted an
even better score.
I was disappointed the last two
years, and to come here and get a win is
just fabulous. Ive wanted to win this
tournament since Ive come to high
school and to win it now is just great,
saidMedico, whohadasolidsummer of

ciation of Philadelphia Junior cham-
pionship. It was just a real honor towin
this tournament today.
Medicos brilliant round was three
shots better than teammate Chase Ma-
kowski, who took second with a 71. An-
other Royal, Matt Slavoski was tied for
third with Coughlins Daulton Lentini;

ALLENTOWN -- As it turned out,
the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees
couldnt quite clinch a division title
just yet.
But that didnt stop them from try-
ing.
Infact, the Yankees
played deep into the
night before Kevin
Russos run-scoring
double drove home
Darnell McDonald
with the winning run
in the top13th inning
Monday, as Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre cut
its magic number for
clinching the Inter-
national League
North Division to
one with a 5-4 victory
over the Lehigh Val-
ley IronPigs.
The worst the Yan-
kees can do is tie for
the division crown,
but they didnt secure it outright be-
cause Pawtucket defeat Gwinnett, 3-1
earlier Monday.
No matter.
The Yankees can wrap up the title
on their off day today if Gwinnett de-
feats Pawtucket, or the Yankees can
win it themselves when they return to
Lehigh Valleys Coca-Cola Park as the
home team at 7:05 p.m. Wednesday.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre inched a lit-
tle closer to the divisional champion-
ship, trimming a game off its magic
number, by overcoming an early four-
run deficit, a plethora of missed offen-
sive opportunities and even a skunk

Now four days out from the opener, Penn
State still has six starting jobs up for grabs.
The Nittany Lions released their initial
depth chart for the 2012 season on Monday,
looking ahead to Saturdays debut against
Ohio at Beaver Stadium.
Some of the spots are still open because of
competition. Others because of injury. Re-
gardless, Bill OBrien and his staff will have
some decisions to make in the next few days.
Right tackle, strong safety and two spots
each at defensive line and wide receiver are
up in the air for the first week.

M A J O R L E A G U E B A S E B A L L
NEW YORK Colby Ras-
mus hit a three-run homer off
Rafael Soriano with two outs in
the ninth inning and the Toron-
to Blue Jays took advantage of
Derek Lowes wild pickoff
throw in the 11th to beat the
New York Yankees 8-7 Monday
night, snapping a seven-game
losing streak.
Moments after Rasmus
stunning drive put Toronto
ahead 7-6, Derek Jeter tied it
with a home run off Casey
Janssen. But the last-place Blue
Jays didnt cave, scratching out
a run two innings later to stop
an eight-game slide at Yankee
Stadium.
The loss might have been a
costly one in more ways than
one for the AL East-leading
Yankees. Slugging first base-
man Mark Teixeira was pulled
with a strained left calf and
sent to the hospital for an MRI.
Rangers 6, Rays 5
ARLINGTON, Texas
Adrian Beltre was 3 for 3 with
a home run and four RBIs,
including the go-ahead run in
the bottom of the fifth inning,
to lead the Texas Rangers to a
6-5 victory over the Tampa Bay
Rays on Monday night.
Elvis Andrus scored on
Beltres single to give the AL
West leaders a series-opening
win. Nelson Cruz also homered
and Mike Olt added an RBI for
Texas.
Orioles 4, White Sox 3
BALTIMORE Nate
McLouth hit a two-run homer
in the eighth inning, Lew Ford
also connected and the Balti-
more Orioles rallied to beat the
White Sox, ending Chicagos
six-game winning streak.
It was the franchise-record
13th consecutive one-run win
for the Orioles, who trailed 2-1

PITTSBURGH Matt Hol-
liday hit a tiebreaking home
run and Kyle Lohse won his
eighth consecutive decision,
leading the St. Louis Cardinals
to a 4-3 victory over the Pitts-
burgh Pirates on Monday
night.
Holliday led off the sixth
inning with his 24th homer, a
drive to right field off A.J.
Burnett that put St. Louis
ahead for good at 3-2.
Lohse (13-2) pitched five
innings before being lifted
following a 34-minute rain
delay in the top of the sixth. He
allowed two runs and five hits
while striking out three and
walking none.
Lohse has not lost in 13
starts dating to June 15 and
raised his career record against
Pittsburgh to 9-2.
Burnett (15-5) gave up four
runs, two earned, and seven
hits in 5
2
3 innings with three
strikeouts and one walk. He
lost at home for just second
time this season in 10 decisions
and 13 starts.
Holliday, Allen Craig and
Skip Schumaker all had two
hits for the Cardinals as did
Andrew McCutchen, Pedro
Alvarez and Clint Barmes for
Pittsburgh.
St. Louis, which has won six
of seven, entered play with a 1
1
2
game lead over the Los An-
geles Dodgers for the second
NL wild-card berth. Pittsburgh
fell three games behind the
Cardinals with its sixth loss in
seven games.
The Cardinals added a run in
the sixth after Hollidays home
run as Yadier Molina hit a
sacrifice fly to make it 4-2.
The Pirates drew within a
run in the seventh inning on
Barmes RBI double. They put
runners on first and second in
the eighth but closer Jason
Motte came in and escaped the
jam by getting Josh Harrison to
hit into an inning-ending force
play.
Motte retired the side in the
ninth for his 31st save in 36
opportunities.
St. Louis had tied the score
at 2-2 in the fifth inning as
Shumaker hit a run-scoring
double and came home on a
single by Lohse.
The Pirates scored the
games first two runs in the
fourth on RBI singles by
McCutchen and Alvarez after
neither team produced a hit in
the first 3
1
2 innings. Alvarez
has 17 RBIs against the Cardi-
nals this season.

STANDINGS/STATS
NEW YORK The New
York Yankees reacquired out-
fielder Steve Pearce in a trade
with Houston on Monday, giv-
ing them another right-hand-
ed bat on the bench for the
stretch drive.
The Yankees sent cash to
the last-place Astros for
Pearce, who
began the
season in
New Yorks
farm system
before he
was traded
to Baltimore
on June 2.
Pearce was
cut by the Orioles on July 21
and claimed off waivers by
Houston a week later.
The strong-armed Pearce,
who can also play first base,
batted .254 with eight RBIs
and five extra-base hits in 63
at-bats for the Astros. He is a
.277 career hitter against left-
ies with eight homers and an
.831 OPS in 213 at-bats.
Hes been a guy thats had a
lot of success off of left-hand-
ers, manager Joe Girardi said
before the Yankees opened a
three-game series with Toron-
to.
Minus injured slugger Alex
Rodriguez, the AL East lead-
ers have been vulnerable
against left-handed pitching at
times. New York acquired cor-
ner infielder Casey McGehee,
also a right-handed hitter,
from Pittsburgh at the July 31
trade deadline but he was bat-
ting only .186 with a homer
and six RBIs in 43 at-bats with
the Yankees.
Girardi wasnt sure if Pearce
would join the team Tuesday
or Wednesday. To make room
for him on the 40-man roster,
the Yankees designated minor
league infielder Brandon
Laird for assignment. They
will need to make another
move to open a spot for
Pearce on the 25-man big
league roster when he reports
to the team.
Because he was obtained
before September, Pearce
would be eligible to play for
the Yankees in the postseason.
The 29-year-old Pearce bat-
ted .318 with 11 home runs
and 30 RBIs for New Yorks
Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre affiliate early this sea-
son. He was leading the In-
ternational League in hits and
batting average when he was
traded.
Pearce played for Pittsburgh
from 2007-11 and is a .237 ca-
reer hitter with 12 homers and
74 RBIs in 234 major league
games. He has played first
base, third base and both cor-
ner outfield positions.

delay.
The game was held up a couple
minutes before the start of the
bottomof the12th inning when a
skunk found its way onto the
right field warning track and
couldnt find its way off.
That didnt stop the Yankees
from eliminating defending IL
North champion Lehigh Valley
from this years title contention,
anddamagingthe IronPigs hopes
of earning a wild card playoff
spot.
Lehigh Valley fell 1
1
2 games be-
hind Pawtucket in the wild card
race with the loss that didnt
seem possible early on.
The IronPigs exploded out of
the gates, scoring four runs inthe
first inning against Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre starter Adam War-
ren. But after that, Warren sur-
rendered just three more hits,
and more importantly, no more
runs to give the Yankees a chance
to chip away.
Or make that chunk away.
The Yankees broke through
against Lehigh Valley starter
Tom Cochran in a big way, blast-
ing two solo homers in the span
of three batters during the fourth
inning. Austin Romine belted the
first one, an opposite-field shot
that skipped off the top of the
right field wall and over the tall
fence to put the Yankees on the
board. After a long fly out, Melky
Mesa crushed another solo
homer to dead center field, chop-
ping Lehigh Valleys lead in half,
4-2.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, which
strandedeight runners inscoring
position and left the bases loaded
twice on the night, kept squan-
dering opportunities. But the
Yankees did just enough to tie
things up.
Ronnier Mustelier slammed a
single to left field in the fifth in-
ning and Kevin Russo trotted in
from third base as the Yankees
pulled within a run.
And just after Eduardo Nunez
was cut down at the plate on a
strong throw by Phillies rehab-
bing right fielder Nate Schier-
holtz in the seventh inning, Cole
Garners two-out squib single to
third base brought home Muste-
lier with a 4-4 tie.
That brought the Yankees back
from a huge early hole. Cesar
Hernandez and Schierholtz
slammed one-out singles in the
opening inning, then Jason Pri-
die roped a two-run single. Pete
Orr followed with a run-scoring
double, then scored himself on
Cody Overbecks single to center
for a quick 4-0 IronPigs lead.

PHILADELPHIA Michael
Vick is back practicing after in-
juring his ribs last week and Ea-
gles offensive coordinator Marty
Mornhinweg says hes real
close to 100 percent.
Vick returned to the field Sun-
day night for the Philadelphias
annual practice party at Lincoln
Financial Field. He left last
Monday nights game after tak-
ing a hard hit that left him with
bruised ribs and didnt play in
Fridays game at Cleveland.
I thought he threw the ball
last night just
beautifully;
threw it strong
and aggressive-
ly, Mornhin-
weg said Mon-
day. So, I
think hes
ready to rock
and roll. Thats my point on
that. I think hes ready to go.
Vick has taken just 12 snaps in
two preseason games and isnt
expected to play against the Jets
on Thursday.
I think in that ballgame that
he got hurt, I think he would
have played in the game if it
was a regular season game,
Mornhinweg said. I dont know
that for sure, but that was just
my thought at the time.
The more important thought
in the coordinators mind right
now, revolves around the back-
up quarterbacks. Philadelphia
has Mike Kafka, Trent Edwards
and Nick Foles in the fold right
now.
Well, we havent come to
that decision. Weve got some
days of practice and the last pre-
season game to evaluate that
and discuss it, he said. Weve
really and I think we dis-
cussed this early in training
camp weve got a host of run-
ning backs that are very good.
Weve got four quarterbacks
here (who) really can play at a
high level. Those are good
things. Those are good things
that you have to come to a deci-
sion on at some point here and
its coming up pretty quick.
Foles, a rookie who was a
standout at Arizona, has been
impressive in the preseason. He
threw two touchdown passes in
the first quarter and led the Ea-
gles to a 27-10 victory over the
Cleveland Browns last Friday.
Foles finished the victory 12 of
19 for 146 yards with one in-
terception.
That choice has not been
made, Mornhinweg said when
asked if Foles had been labeled
the No. 2 yet. Weve got several
different things to evaluate
there. I certainly have great con-
fidence in all of our quarter-
backs to do all of the jobs that
we would ask them to do: back-
up and the number three.
(Quarterbacks coach) Doug Pe-
derson has done just an out-
standing job with all four of the
quarterbacks.
The Eagles, who closed the
regular season on a four-game
winning streak last year, are 3-0
this preseason and have scored
78 points along the way.
Vick back at practice, close to 100 percent
Eagles quarterback preparing
to lead team into its season
opener Sept. 9, at Cleveland.
RICHMOND, Va. The founder of a dog sanctuary at NFL star Michael
Vicks former dogfighting compound said Monday that she was shocked
to learn that she faces charges of animal cruelty and inadequate care of
animals. Both charges are misdemeanors.
Tamira Thayne said in a telephone interview from her Dogs Deserve
Better operation in Surry County that she read a newspaper report
about the charges, but had neither spoken to authorities nor been
served warrants.
I know nothing about it, Thayne said. I just got home from my honey-
moon in St. Lucia. Apparently I was abusing dogs while I was gone.
Surry County Chief Animal Control Officer Tracy Terry said her office
received complaints that led to an investigation, and the results prompt-
ed her to file the charges Friday. She declined to say specifically what
led to the charges, but said Thayne should not be surprised.
Thayne insisted she and her employees have done nothing wrong.

Vick
Vince Young is out of work,
Terrell Suggs is on PUP and
several veteran NFL kickers are
on the street after the first set
of mandatory NFL cuts.
Teams needed to be down to
75 players Monday, and Young
was the biggest name to lose
his job. After Buffalo acquired
Tarvaris Jackson from Seattle
to back up quarterback Ryan
Fitzpatrick, 2006 Offensive
Rookie of the Year Young was
released.
Vince, I dont want to get
into what he can do and cant
do, it just didnt work out, gen-
eral manager Buddy Nix said.
We just need to move on and
give this guy a try.
Young knew what was com-
ing and tweeted earlier in the
day: Respect Bills fans. I want
to thank the Bills organization
for the opportunity and with
the organization and my team-
mates good luck this season.
Its been a tough few years
for Young since he was exiled
by the Titans for inconsistent
play on the field and several
incidents off it. Young had a
disappointing season as Mi-
chael Vicks backup in Philadel-
phia last year, and couldnt
make it through the preseason
with Buffalo.
Suggs, on the other hand,
comes off his best pro season,
when he was voted Defensive
Player of the Year. But he tore
his right Achilles tendon in the
offseason and isnt expected
back before November.
By placing him on the phys-
ically unable to perform list,
the Ravens must be without
Suggs for the first six weeks of
the season.
Detroit placed on PUP run-
ning back Jahvid Best, who
hasnt played since October be-
cause of concussion problems.
All 32 teams must be down
to the regular-season roster lim-
it of 53 on Friday.
Among the kickers given the
boot were Olindo Mare by Car-
olina, Josh Brown by the Jets,
and Neil Rackers by Washing-
ton.
Mare has played 15 NFL sea-
son and got a four-year, $12 mil-
lion contract last year. But Jus-
tin Medlock, last with the CFLs
Hamilton Tiger-Cats, appears
to have won the kicking job in
Carolina.
Veteran punter Nick Harris
was beaten out by sixth-round
draft pick Brad Nortman.
Both of those decisions at
kicker were very difficult, Pan-
thers general manager Marty
Hurney said. In both situa-
tions we felt like we had two
young kickers with strong legs
who had very good training
camps. So did Olindo and Nick,
but we made a decision to go
with the younger guys based on
their performances.
Brown lost out to incumbent
Nick Folk in New York, and
Rackers was beaten out by Gra-
ham Gano in Washington.
Gano missed an NFL-high 10
field goal attempts in 2011; five
were blocked. Coach Mike Sha-
nahan said Gano won the sta-
tistical battle in practice.
Tackle Jammal Brown, who
had hip surgery last week, was
moved to the physically unable
to perform list.
Also:
The Jets, besides Brown,
waived LB Damario Ambrose,
WR Stanley Arukwe, WR Wes
Kemp and RB Jeremy Stewart
and Josh Baker. Baker, a hybrid
fullback/tight end, suffered a
season-ending injury in the
Jets 17-12 preseason loss to the
Carolina Panthers Sunday night
at MetLife Stadium. Baker, 25,
had impressed the coaching
staff in training camp with his
multifaceted skill set - a neces-
sary edge in a Tony Sparano
offense that calls for multiple
tight end sets and puts an em-
phasis on blocking ability.
The other 31 NFL teams
have 24 hours to claim Baker
off the waiver wire. If he goes
unclaimed, the player - whom
coach Rex Ryan called a "Swiss
Army knife" because of his ver-
satility - will revert to the Jets
injured reserve list.
"Hes a smart guy and a
tough kid," Ryan said earlier
this month.
Green Bay lost starting li-
nebacker Desmond Bishop for
the season. He went on injured
reserve with a right leg prob-
lem.
San Diego released veteran
receiver-kick returner Roscoe
Parrish.
Cleveland claimed DL Er-
nest Owusu off waivers from
Minnesota and placed lineback-
ers Emmanuel Acho and Chris
Gocong on injured reserve, los-
ing them for the season. Placed
defensive tackle Phil Taylor
went on the PUP list. Taylor
tore a biceps muscle lifting
weights during the offseason. A
first-round pick in 2011, he
started all 16 games last sea-
son.
Denver waived veteran
long snapper Lonie Paxton.
Jacksonville put sixth-year
linebacker Clint Session (con-
cussion) on PUP.
New Orleans released QB
Luke McCown and DT Remi
Ayodele.
The New York Giants
placed DT Chris Canty and TE
Travis Beckum on the PUP list,
released DBs Antwaun Molden
and Chris Horton.
Tampa put two-time Pro
Bowl guard Davin Joseph on
injured reserve and second-year
defensive end DaQuan Bowers
on PUP. Joseph tore the patel-
lar tendon in his right knee last
week and Bowers tore his right
Achilles tendon during a work-
out in May and has not partici-
pated in training camp.
Houston let go of veteran
LB Omar Gaither and WR
Bryant Johnson.
New England released re-
ceivers Jabar Gaffney and
Donte Stallworth, and defen-
sive lineman Gerard Warren.
DBs Will Allen and Josh Bar-
rett and FB Spencer Larsen
went on injured reserve.

Former ROY Young cant make Bills roster
By BARRY WILNER
AP Pro Football Writer
The Eagles trimmed their roster to 75 by placing All-Pro left tackle
Jason Peters and two others on injury designations and releasing a
player.
Peters tore his right Achilles tendon in the offseason and was put on
the non-football injury list on Monday. Defensive tackle Mike Patterson
was placed on the non-football illness list while he continues to recov-
er from brain surgery. Both players are eligible to return to practice
with the team between Weeks 6-9 of the regular season.
Guard Mike Gibson was placed on injured reserve because of a hip
injury, and wide receiver Jamel Hamler was released.
I N J U R I E S FA C I L I TAT E E A G L E S M O V E S
PITTSBURGH Despite re-
ports and heavy speculation that
Mike Wallace would report to the
Steelers on Monday, the holdout
receiver was not there.
High school teammate and
Steelers cornerback Keenan Le-
wis said Wallace would arrive
Tuesday, however. So, the drama
continues to build. Officially,
Wallace, coach Mike Tomlin and
the organization arent talking,
but teammates openly discussed
the pending arrival.
Rookie guard David DeCastro
was at the facility, took part in
meetings and hung with team-
mates. But the Steelers first-
round pick was in crutches after
sustaining a potentially severe
knee injury during Saturdays
preseason game. He will undergo
surgery Wednesday.
Pittsburgh concludes the pre-
season by hosting Carolina on
Thursday.
Lewis and cornerback Ike Tay-
lor are arguably Wallaces closest
friends on the team, and the two
have openly embraced playfully
actingas conduits for speculation
concerning Wallaces status and
whereabouts.
After a media member request-
edLewis call Wallace onMonday,
Lewis and Taylor passed Lewis
cell phone back and forth during
a conversation. Taylor played
coy.
Just to have
him back,
whenever he
comes, its go-
ing to be a
plus, Taylor
said. We miss
him, we miss
the attitude, we
miss the way he clowns, we just
miss Mike in general. So, when
he gets back, were going to em-
brace him.
Wallace had 2,450 receiving
yards and18touchdowns thepast
two seasons. A restricted free
agent, he would need to sign a
one-year tender of approximately
$2.7milliontoreport totheteam.
The Steelers suspended negotia-
tions with Wallace when he was a
no-show on the first day of train-
ing camp. The organization also
has a policy of not conducting
contract negotiations during the
regular season, meaning the
clock is ticking if Wallace wants a
long-term deal though he
could be content to test the open
market as an unrestricted free
agent after this season.
With Wallace not around, the
Steelers gave an extension to
their other starting receiver, An-
tonio Brown, on the third day of
training camp.
NOTES: Players cut by the
Steelers on Monday were DBs
Myron Rolle, Andre Freeman,
and Walter McFadden; LBs Ryan
Baker and Mortty Ivy; DTs Mike
Blanc and Kade Weston; WRs
Paul Cox, Juamorris Stewart and
Jimmy Young; K Daniel Hrap-
mann; OL Kyle Jolly; LS Matt

sources, but was a no-show.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
Defensive tackle Chris Canty
chose his words carefully after
the New York Giants put him on
the reserve-physically unable to
perform list to start the 2012 sea-
son.
The eight-year veteran never
said he disagreed with the move
that will sideline him for at least
six games. The 29-year-old line-
man, however, made it clear on
Monday that the Giants and their
medical staff decidedthat his sur-
gically repaired knee needed
more time to heal.
It was their decision, not his. In
fact, Canty insisted he is close to
being ready. But either way, he
cannot suit up until at least Oct.
18, when New York takes on
Washington.
Imnot gonna sayI sawit com-
ing, CantysaidObviously, I was
optimistic about it. I feel good, I
feel in pretty good shape consid-
eringall thefactors. I standbythe
position my knee is better than it
was November, December, Janu-
ary of last season.
But ulti-
mately this was
a decision that
was madeinthe
best interest of
the football
team.
Canty had a
knee neither
he nor the team has said which
one cleaned out after the Gi-
ants beat the NewEngland Patri-
ots to win their second Super
Bowl in five seasons. In mini-
camp, he insisted he would be
ready for the season opener on
Sept. 5 against the Dallas Cow-
boys, the team that drafted him.
But when training camp
opened, Canty was placed on the
PUP and he never looked ready.
He was seen on the sideline run-
ning after the team returned to
NewJersey, but that was it. Canty
said the Giants told himthe deci-
sion recently. He was not given
the chance to plead his case oth-
erwise.
Yeah it is disappointing, he
said. But at the end of the day,
what can you do?
Canty refused to get into the
specifics of his surgery.
He saidhe playeda least a third
of last season on a bad knee and
his career would not have contin-
ued had he not addressed the in-
jury.
Giants Canty upset

batting order from the seasons
first night.
Thats (the same) for every
team team in Triple-A, said
Laird, who leads the team
with 87 RBI. The guys who
we have here, it doesnt mat-
ter who they are. What were
here to do is win.
With all theyve had to over-
come, the Yankees recently
rolled off a nine-game winning
streak, and barring a complete
collapse, will clinch a division
title within the next couple of
days.
That seems spectacular,
considering all the turmoil the
SWB Yankees had to battle
through.
Theyre doing it on their
own, Miley insisted, nodding
to his players. I dont know
what expectations were on the

in the clubhouse.
It is an attitude to not only
conquer, but overcome, no
matter how great the obstacles
may look.
Its called playing with
heart.

with 74s.
The three low scores by Re-
deemer helped the team win its
third consecutive tournament ti-
tle with a score of 290, which
shattered the events teamrecord
of 296 set by the Royals the last
two years. Redeemers Ryan
Crossin rounded out the scoring
for his team, carding a 79.
Coughlin placed second to the
Royals in the teamscoring with a
score of 302. In any other year ex-
cept the last three when Holy Re-
deemer broke 300, the Crusaders
score would have won the tour-
ney. Shamus Gartley scored 76
and Corey Hausers 80 also
helped Coughlins low points to-
tal.
Honestly I never thought any-
one would ever beat the 296 we
had. So to beat it by six shots is
unheardof, Redeemer coachArt
Brunn Jr. said. (Coughlin) shot
302, thats a phenomenal score.
Thats a great round those guys
put together today.
Pittston Area (312), Wyoming
Valley West (314) and Dallas
(320) rounded out the top-five
team scores.
One of the weirdest things to
happen during any round of golf
occurred in the threesome of
Medico, Gartley and Wyoming
Valley Wests Chris McCue when
all three players eagled the sixth
hole consecutively
Its once in a lifetime to see
three eagles on one hole like
that, Medico noted. We all hit it
to about 15 feet fromthe hole and
all made it.

said last week during practice.
Mike had a really good sum-
mer, obviously. Mikes an im-
proved player. Theyll both play
for us, I can tell you that.
At receiver, Allen Robinson is
the only starter set in stone.
Oppositehimwill beeither ju-
nior Shawney Kersey or true
freshman Trevor Williams, who
has impressed in camp. Sopho-
more AlexKenney andfifth-year
man Evan Lewis will battle for
time in the slot.
On defense, the position to
watch is strong safety, given the
Lions injury woes during the
summer. Williamsports Jake
Fagnano came into camp as the
projected starter, but a hamstr-
ing issue has kept himsidelined
for much of the month. That
could lead to junior Stephen
Obeng-Agyapong starting on
Saturday.
Its touch-and-go, OBrien
said of Fagnanos status. Its a
tough deal when you have a
hamstring.
You have to let
it heal or else
its just going
to keep nag-
ging you.
On the de-
fensive line,
touted red-
shirt freshman Deion Barnes
could step in at end for senior
Pete Massaro, who has been
dealing with a sore knee recent-
ly.
At tackle, DaQuan Jones and
James Terryarebothcandidates
to start next to stalwart Jordan
Hill.
NEPA products Eugene Le-
wis and Nyeem Wartman are
both in contention for a spot on
the two-deep for the opener.
Lewis and Matt Zanellato are
both listed as second-stringers
behind Robinson at receiver.
Wartman is named along with
senior Mike Yancich as the top
backup at middle linebacker for
Glenn Carson.
Lewis and Wartman are two
of 13 true freshmen to appear on
the initial depth chart.

STATE COLLEGE Penn
States home opener on Satur-
day will be missing a game-day
staple: Sweet Caroline.
The Altoona Mirror reports
that school officials decided to
eliminate the Neil Diamond
sing-along hit from the Beaver
Stadium playlist because of its
lyrics: Hands, touching hands,
reaching out, touching me,
touching you.
The song could be awkward
in light of the Jerry Sandusky
child-sex scandal.
However, Associate Athletic
Director Greg Myford says that
while the lyrics were discussed,
Sweet Caroline had been on
the bubble for several years be-
cause the song has no real con-
nection to Penn State. He says
it simply became easier to ro-
tate out in order to try some-
thing else.
Diamond has said he wrote
the song in tribute to President
John F. Kennedys daughter,
Caroline

NEW YORK The Jets and
Rams swapped struggling right
tackles Monday night as New
York acquired Jason Smith from
St. Louis for Wayne Hunter.
Both the Jets and Kenny Zuck-
erman, Hunters agent, con-
firmed the deal, adding that it
was pending physicals Tuesday.
Smith was the No. 2 overall
pick by the Rams in the 2009
draft, but failed to live up to lofty
expectations and lost his starting
job. Free agent Barry Richardson
has started at right tackle all pre-
season ahead of Smith, who has
been plagued by concussion
problems and ineffectiveness
throughout his career.
Hunter was demoted to the
jumbo tight end spot and re-
placed by Austin Howard last
week after struggling in the first
two games of the preseason. But
the Jets made it clear he was still
in their plans for this season
when they didnt cut him before
the start of free agency allow-
ing his contract to become guar-
anteed for $2.45 million.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- As a
former first-round draft pick
once considered the savior of
another franchise, quarterback
Brady Quinn wasnt about to
celebrate the news that he had
officially been selected the
Chiefs top backup to Matt Cas-
sel.
"Everyone wants to be a start-
er in this league and play on the
field," Quinn said. "Thats the
ultimate time youd be pretty
happy having a title of sorts."
Even if Quinn wasnt im-
pressed, it was big news for the
Chiefs, though not a surprise.
Quinn has more experience
than his competition, Ricky
Stanzi, and outplayed him dur-
ing the preseason.
Coach Romeo Crennel cited
Quinns experience as the big
factor. Quinn, a first-round pick
by Cleveland in 2007, started 12
games for the Browns over
three seasons.
Stanzi, a rookie last season,
has never played in a regular-
season NFL game.
"Thats the main thing I feel
like will benefit us the most,"
Crennel said. "He (Quinn) has
experience in games. Both guys
have good ability, and they both
competed and worked very
hard."
Stanzi will stay with the
Chiefs as their third quarter-
back.
"Hes a good, young player
with a lot of talent, and he has a
lot of upside to him," Crennel
said.
Because of the difference in
experience, Stanzi needed to
clearly win the competition, and
that didnt happen. In their per-
fect world, the Chiefs would
have loved to see Stanzi win the
job. Not only was he their fifth-
round pick last season, but he is
signed through 2014. Quinn is
on a one-year contract.
But Stanzi didnt claim the
job. Heading into Thursday
nights final preseason game
against the Packers in Green
Bay, Quinn has completed 59
percent of his throws with a pas-
ser rating of 76.1. Stanzi has
completed 46 percent and has a
quarterback rating of 27.1.

FARMINGDALE, N.Y. The race
for the cup has rarely been this intense
after just one playoff event.
Only its not the FedEx Cup.
At the moment, thats only meaning-
ful to those who risked going home af-
ter one week. Sure, it was significant
for Nick Watney to win The Barclays
because it assures he will be at East
Lake for the Tour Championship with a
legitimate shot at the $10 million prize.
But there are rarely surprises at the
opening playoff event. Watney (No. 49)
was only the second Barclays winner
who was not already in the top 30.
Right now, its all about the Ryder
Cup.
There are no points to tally. There
are no charts to show how each birdie
and bogey will help or hurt someones
chances. This is all speculation. Wat-
ney chose the right word when he said
his three-shot win at Bethpage Black
against the strongest, full field this side
of a major was all about getting into the
conversation.
Let the chatter begin.
Europe was the first to fill out its 12-
man team. Martin Kaymer earned the
last spot on the teamby not playing the
Johnnie Walker Championship at Gle-
neagles and securing 10th place only
when Nicolas Colsaerts of Belgium
failed to finish first or second. Jose Ma-
ria Olazabal, in a decision that sur-
prised no one, selected Colsaerts and
Ian Poulter.
It was the second time in three Ryd-
er Cups that Poulter had to rely on be-
ing a pick, only there was no cause for
panic. The only thing that made him
uptight at Bethpage Black was the
baked greens that sent him into a Twit-
ter rage.
Few outside Ireland can protest
those picks. There was plenty of gossip
about a decade-only squabble between
Olazabal and Padraig Harrington, but
it would have been tough to take the
Irishman for a second straight cup
when he hasnt beaten meaningful
competition in four years.
U.S. captain Davis Love III might
have had an easier time under the old
system of announcing his two picks
right after the PGA Championship, the
final qualifying event.
In a move that was overdue, former
captain Paul Azinger orchestrated a
change in 2008 that gave the Ameri-
cans four picks instead of two, and al-
lowed the captain an additional three
weeks to make his decision. The idea
was to get the players on top of their
games. That essentially turned the first
couple of FedEx Cup playoff events in-
to an audition. And now, its a larger
cast than Love might have imagined.
What a difference from two years
ago, when no one really inspired U.S.
captain Corey Pavin. He took Tiger
Woods, an easy choice for no other rea-
son than hes Tiger Woods. He settled
on two veterans in Zach Johnson and
Stewart Cink, and Rickie Fowler by de-
fault. No one else distinguished him-
self as an obvious pick. Fowler not only
was the first PGA Tour rookie to make
the team, he had yet to win a tourna-
ment as a pro.
Its more complicated this time.
Steve Stricker and Jim Furyk are be-
lieved to be locks to be taken. Stricker
not only is one of the best putters in
golf, he and Woods have a 6-2 record as
a team in the last three Presidents Cup
and Ryder Cup matches. Furyk hasnt
won since the 2010 Tour Champion-
ship, when he captured the FedEx Cup,
but he gave himself great chances at
the U.S. Open and at the Bridgestone
Invitational, doomed by a snap-hook
off the 16th tee at Olympic and a dou-
ble bogey on the 18th hole at Firestone.
He not only has played on every U.S.
team since 1997, he has qualified for
them all. Consider this a lifetime
achievement pick, and not a bad one. A
year ago, he narrowly qualified for the
Presidents Cup, and then went 5-0 at
Royal Melbourne. Only one of his
matches reached the 18th hole.
That essentially leaves Love having
to look at five players maybe more
for two spots.
Watney was enduring a lost season
until winning The Barclays. That
doesnt make him a frontrunner, but he
is a big blip on the radar at the very
least. Brandt Snedeker already was un-
der consideration a winner at Tor-
rey Pines, a contender at the British
Open and a guy who can putt. He
showed that at The Barclays, making a
15-footer for par on the 17th and a bird-
ie putt from about that length on the
18th to finish alone in second.
Dustin Johnson, who has won every
year since his rookie season in 2008,
tied for third at Barclays. His sheer
power and talent is difficult to ignore.
Fowler showed up on the leaderboard
until Saturday, when Bethpage Black
became Bethpage Brown and sent
scores soaring. Not to be forgotten is
Hunter Mahan, who was poised to
make the team on his own until he fin-
ished toward the bottom of the pack at
Firestone and missed the cut at the
PGA Championship and the Barclays.

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Kyle
Busch seems awfully unhappy
these days.
Thats unfortunate for Busch,
and its bad for NASCAR.
Its been a stressful summer
for Busch, who finds himself
clinging to one of the wild card
spots for the 12-driver Chase for
the Sprint Cup championship.
Not qualifying for NASCARs ti-
tle-deciding series isnt the end
of theworldBuschmissedthe
cut in 2009 and lived to tell
about it but its a colossal fail-
ure for a driver of his caliber.
So, yeah, his fun meter was
flat over the weekend at Bristol.
He disliked changes to the track,
didnt want to discuss an inci-
dent at Watkins Glen with Brad
Keselowski he has yet to address
and wasnt willing to go in depth
about his shaky Chase chances.
Weve got three weeks. Chill
out, he said when asked about
the importance of getting a win
at Bristol.
Busch didnt win, though, and
now hes down to two weeks to
claim a victory that would dra-
matically boost his shot at mak-
ing the Chase. First up is Sunday
nights race at Atlanta, where he
has one win in 14 career starts,
but a more telling average finish
of 18th.
But, all this Chase pressure
may not be the only issue thats
left Busch in a seemingly sour
mood. His demeanor is a far cry
from his Rowdy heyday, when
Buschwas racking up wins inev-
eryseries andwas athreat towin
every time he entered a race.
Why? Because hes hardly run-
ning anything anymore.
Busch this year has run just 14
Nationwide races in addition to
his Sprint Cup starts, and hes
got a singlewinfor theseason, in
Cup at Richmond in May. At this
time last year, he had four Cup
wins, five Nationwide wins and
five Truck Series wins. And he
was doing it an abbreviated
schedule by Buschs standards.
He made a big mistake last
November at Texas, when he in-
tentionally wrecked Ron Horn-
adayunder cautionintheTrucks
race. NASCAR suspended him
for the rest of the weekend, and
he practically had to grovel to
keep his primary Cup sponsor
fromforcingJoe Gibbs Racingto
give him the boot.
Busch kept his job, but hes
been a shell of himself since.
Part of his punishment was ap-
parently forcing himto stop run-
ning in the Truck Series, which
Busch had heavily invested in by
starting a team at a time when
owners are struggling to see the
value.
Out of the driver seat, hes
thrown himself into the team
owner role and expanded Kyle
Busch Motorsports into the Na-
tionwide Series. He shares the
seat with older brother Kurt,
and when he announced the
team, there was talk that the
Busch brothers could win every
Nationwide race they entered.
Yet here we are, 23 races into
the season, and Kurts win at
Daytona in July stands as KBMs
only Nationwide victory. The
Nationwide team he had hoped
would win the owners cham-
pionship is instead 10th in
points, while his Truck team is
11th.
Some might argue that this
newfound idle time and KBMs
struggles are weighing on Busch
far more thanhis Chase chances.
When Busch was winning every-
thing, he had an air of invincibil-
ity and walked through the ga-
rage without a care in the world.
If he minded being NASCARs
bad boy, he sure didnt show it.
With his trademark celebratory
bowtothe crowd, andhis refusal
to back down to anyone, Busch
had established himself as the
centerpiece in almost every
NASCARs storyline.
Like him or hate him, Busch
had you talking about him and
thats good for NASCARs busi-
ness.
Now? He seems somewhat de-
feated. The constant booing
fromfans, the nastymessages on
Twitter, the stifling media scru-
tiny and the never-ending spon-
sor glad-handing hes got to do
as both a driver and a teamown-
er has pushed Busch to the edge
of bitterness. He wasnt cocky or
confident in his media availabil-
itys at Bristol; he was fulfilling
an obligation with zero enthusi-
asm.
Everyone is to blame for this.
Busch for the bad decisions and
missteps hes made, the media
for holding himto a double stan-
dard hes crucified for not
talkingwhenhes angry, but five-
time champion Jimmie Johnson
got a pass for the exact same
thing last week and the fans
for not appreciating him for the
excitement and entertainment
he brings to NASCAR.
Well all follow the Chase
down to the wire whether Busch
is part of it or not. But if Busch
was allowed to be Busch you
know, the one with105 victories
spanning NASCARs three na-
tional series wed all find it a
lot more enjoyable.
Busch announced Monday
hell be back in his truck this
weekend at Atlanta. It will be his
first start of the season, and the
first weekend hes running all
three series again. Maybe thats
the medicine he needs to get his
groove back.

Kyle Busch prepares for prac-
tice for a NASCAR Sprint Cup
race at New Hampshire Motor
Speedway.
led stadium was her first match
since a 6-0, 6-1loss to Williams at
the London Games in a gold-
medal showdown that looked
and felt more like one of these
first-round wipeouts Sharapova
usually inflicts.
Turns out, Sharapova was deal-
ing with some stomach pain
then, which only got worse a few
weeks later. She went to the doc-
tor for a series of tests, including
an ultrasound to see if she was
pregnant. Thetest turnedupneg-
ative.
Just because of the pain I was
having, it was really weird, Sha-
rapova said. They told me I was
fine, not pregnant. Then, Imlike,
Can I get my money back?
It has beenaneventful summer
for one of tennis biggest stars.
After serving as the flagbearer
for Russia, then finishing as the
silver medalist at the Olympics at
Wimbledon, Sharapovas original
plan was to come to North Amer-
ica and play in tuneups in Mon-
treal and Cincinnati to acclimate
herself to the hard courts.
But the Olympics tooka lot out
of Sharapova, and when she ar-
rived in Canada, she got knocked
down by a stomach ache so bad
that she went to the doctor.
It turned out to be a virus
her bodys way of telling her to
take it easy, she said, so she with-
drew from the events and took a
few weeks off.
It was a nice break in a way,
but after so many weeks of prac-
ticing, youre just eager to get
back on the court, she said.
She looked eager to get off the
court, as well, showing very few
signs of rust against her 88th-
ranked opponent.
The routine win closed out a
day session filled mostly with by-
the-book results: Defending
champion Sam Stosurs 6-1, 6-1
victory over Croatias Petra Mar-
tic, No. 3 Andy Murrays 6-2, 6-4,
6-1 win over Alex Bogomolov Jr.,
of Russia and, of course, a two-
hour rain delay at a tournament
that has finished on a Monday for
four straight years because of bad
weather.
Monday night, Kim Clijsters
began the last tournament of her
career by winning her 22nd con-
secutive U.S. Open match, beat-
ing 16-year-old American wild
card Victoria Duval 6-3, 6-1. The
29-year-old Belgian is retiring af-
ter this years U.S. Open.
Clijsters has left Flushing
Meadows with the title each of
the last three times she played
in 2005, 2009 and 2010. She mis-
sed the Grand Slam tournament
in 2011 because of an injured
stomach muscle.
No. 1 Roger Federers quest for
a sixthU.S. Opentitle beganlater
in Mondays night session.
Murray is trying to become the
first man to win the Olympics
and the U.S. Open in the same
year. His first match of 2012 at
Flushing Meadows gave him a
decent test with just a little
something to worry about.
He fell down a break to open
the first two sets but won the last
five games of the first and last
four games of the second, then
cruised in the third, which he be-
gan by shouting focus.
No. 22 Florian Mayer with-
drew while trailing 19-year-old
American wild card Jack Sock
6-3, 6-2, 3-2, saying he felt dizzy
and had blurred vision.
Sock advanced to the second
round for the second straight
year. Hell be joined by Ameri-
cans James Blake, a four-set win-
ner over Lukas Lackoof Slovakia,
23rd-seeded Mardy Fish, who
beat Go Soeda of Japan in three
sets, and TimSmyczek, who won
1-6, 6-4, 6-2, 4-6, 6-4 over Bobby
Reynolds in a 3-hour, 33-minute,
all-American matchup between
qualifiers.

Best Buy deal closer
Best Buy Co. Inc. has struck a deal
with founder Richard Schulze that will
grant Schulze access to confidential
financial information so he can prepare
a formal offer to buy back the company.
Under terms of the agreement, the
company will allow Schulze to formally
form a buyout group and present an
offer to the board of directors within 60
days after he first sees Best Buys fi-
nancial data. If the board rejects his
offer, Schulze cant pursue an acquisi-
tion until January 2013.
Schulze, backed by private equity
firms like Apollo Global Management
and KKR, has said he would like to
offer Best Buy shareholders about $24
to $26 a share, or roughly $9 billion.
M&T buys Hudson City
M&T Bank Corp. is buying Hudson
City Bancorp Inc. in a cash-and-stock
deal valued at about $3.7 billion that
will broaden its reach in the eastern
The buyout includes Hudson Citys
135 branch offices located in New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut.
The combined company will include
870 branches located in states running
from Connecticut to Virginia. M&T
says there is very little overlap between
its existing branches and those of Hud-
son City.
Hertz snags Dollar Thrifty
More than two years after its original
bid, Hertz agreed Sunday to buy Dollar
Thrifty Automotive Group Inc. for
about $2.3 billion, giving it more ways
to attract travelers and expand its in-
ternational presence. It will also give
the company a leg up against competi-
tion from an increasing number of
smaller competitors.
At $87.50 per share, the deal is worth
far more than any of Hertzs previous
bids and about 8 percent higher than
Dollar Thriftys closing price Friday.
Nothing will change immediately for
consumers.
CAW threatens strikes
The Canadian Auto Workers union
said Monday that its members have
voted overwhelmingly to go on strike,
if necessary, in contract talks with
Chrysler, General Motors and Ford.
In the past several days, union mem-
bers voted 99 percent in favor of strike
authorization at Chrysler, 98 percent in
favor at General Motors, and 97 per-
cent in favor at Ford.
The CAWs contracts with the De-
troit Three Sept. 17.

WHATS IN A GAME?
Quite a bit, as it turns
out.
You might have
encountered it already
in certain Facebook
apps, when using
Foursquare or on any number of pro-
gressive websites.
Foursquare is a great example.
Whoever has checked in the most
times at a given location becomes the
Mayor of that location.
While the idea on Foursquares part
is to drive more use of the platform,
businesses have latched on to the idea,
offering deals and promotions to fre-
quent visitors. Thats a very basic exam-
ple, and the tip of a far larger and more
interesting iceberg.
Its called Gamification, a concept
in which aspects of games scores,
rewards, etc. are applied to something
other than a game actions you take on
a website, for example. Its starting to
gain serious traction so much so that
educational institutions like the Uni-
versity of Pennsylvania are offering
courses on Gamification and its appli-
cations.
Companies like Nike have taken the
concept to the next level with Nike+, an
app that uses the GPS and accelerom-
eter capabilities of modern phones to
track the users running progress and
that of friends, allowing them to com-
pete for rewards.
Nike+ also offers its users milestones
earn NikeFuel by running or walking,
for example, and its system will award
badges and trophies that can be shared
and seen by other users.
For Nike, as a business, this means
that their customers are being actively
incentivized to continue to purchase
Nike products, which brings in direct
revenue, and to utilize Nike apps and
websites, constantly exposing them to
Nikes marketing messages.
But the process can be even simpler.
Users can be directed to different
areas of a website on Easter egg
hunts to make them more aware of
products, features or marketing mess-
ages.
They can be rewarded for frequent
visits, or for taking actions that gener-
ate value or content.
Achieving goals is one of the reasons
people enjoy playing games. By apply-
ing those concepts to everyday tasks,
its possible to simultaneously improve
a users experience and to subtly push
them towards desired actions or tasks.
People also enjoy competition. An
otherwise mundane action like posting
a message is subtly changed when
people are ranked or rated for the num-
ber of comments posted, or the highest
rated post, and there are rewards or
status messages involved.

NEW YORK A federal jury in San
Jose, Calif., ruled late Friday that Sam-
sung, the worlds largest maker of phones,
had copied features of the iPhone and the
iPad. That included the bounce-back
behavior when a user scrolls to the end of
a page andthe ability tozoominonanim-
age by spreading two fingers.
The jury awarded Apple $1.05 billion in
damages. That was less than the $2.5 bil-
lion sought, but still a victory for Apple.
Meanwhile, the jury rejected Samsungs
patent-infringement claims against Ap-
ple. An appeal is expected.
For now, heres what the verdict means
for consumers:
Q. Can I still buy a Samsung phone or
tablet computer today?
A. Yes. The jury didnt prohibit sales of
the devices. However, Apple on Monday
submitted a list of eight Samsung prod-
ucts it wants pulled from shelves and
banned from the U.S. market. The prod-
ucts are: Galaxy S 4G, Galaxy S2 AT&T,
GalaxyS2, GalaxyS2T-Mobile, GalaxyS2
Epic 4G, Galaxy S Showcase, Droid
Charge and Galaxy Prevail.
ASept. 20 hearing has been scheduled.
Q. Was Fridays verdict final?
A. No. Samsung is challenging it. First,
Samsung will first ask the trial judge to
toss the verdict. Then it will appeal to a
court in Washington that specializes in
patent appeals. Samsung has vowed to
take the fight all the way to the U.S. Su-
preme Court, if necessary.
Q. Will this make Samsung phones
more expensive?
A. Possibly. Samsung may have to pay
Apple substantial royalties on each
phone. Consumers will likely pay for that
somehow, but it may not be noticeable in
stores.
Q. What does this mean for the Sam-
sung phone I already own?
A. This doesnt directly affect phones
that have already been sold, even if they
are the models that the judge decides to
ban. Q. What does this meanfor other An-
droid phones?
A. Although the ruling applies only to
Samsung, it will have anindirect effect on
all makers of Android devices. Apple
could go after themwith arguments simi-
lar tothe ones usedagainst Samsung. But
Fridays ruling is not precedential, mean-
ing that other courts could reach com-
pletely different decisions.
Q. What does this mean for Apple?
A. Analysts say it could help Apple gain
market share at the expense of Android
phones, if thesehavetoavoidsomeattrac-
tive and easy-to-use features introduced
by Apple.

After more than three weeks of trial and two days of deliberations, a federal jury in San Jose, Calif., said Friday that Sam-
sung copied Apples iPhone and iPad and ordered the South Korean firm to pay more than $1 billion in damages.
What Apples win means to you

WASHINGTON As the in-
come gap between rich and poor
widens, a majority of Americans
say the growing divide is bad for
the country and believe that
wealthy people are paying too lit-
tle in taxes, according to a new
poll released Monday by the Pew
Research Center.
The poll found that many
Americans believe rich people to
be intelligent and hardworking
but also greedy and less honest
thanthe average American. Near-
ly six in10, or 58 percent, say the
rich dont pay enough in taxes,
while 26 percent believe the rich
pay their fair share and 8 percent
say they pay too much.
Even among those who de-
scribe themselves as upper
class or upper middle class,
more than half or 52 percent
said upper-income Americans
dont pay enoughintaxes; only10
percent said they paid too much.
This upper tier was more likely to
say they are more financially se-
cure now than 10 years ago 62
percent, compared to 44 percent
for those who identified them-
selves as middle class and 29 per-
cent for the lower class.
The results reinforce a tide of
recent economic data showing a
widening economic divide.
Americas middle class has been
shrinking in the stagnant econo-
my and poverty is nowapproach-
ing 1960s highs, while wealth
concentrates at thetop. Sixty-five
percent of Americans say the gap
between rich and poor has gotten
wider in the past decade, while
20 percent believe it has stayed
the same and 7 percent say the
gap has gotten smaller. The Pew
survey involved telephone inter-
views with 2,508 adults conduct-
ed from July 16-26 with a margin
of error of 2.8 percentage points.

Don't despair.
Those cloudy
skies out your
window early
this morning will
soon turn to
sunshine as drier
air moves in with
clearing for a
beautiful after-
noon. Northerly
winds will then
continue to
import very dry
air into town
tonight and
tomorrow and
this will bring a
sense of fall in
the air under
blue skies for
Wednesday and
Thursday.
Indeed, the
mornings will be
quite cool and
most refreshing.
By Saturday, the
weakened circu-
lation associated
with Isaac will
still be far away
from here but
heading into
Sunday and
Monday what
remains of the
dying storm
could drift closer
and bring show-
ers our way.
-- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: Hurricane Isaac will bring very windy conditions and heavy rainfall to the cen-
tral Gulf Coast today. Localized ooding will be likely from southern Louisiana into southern
Mississippi, Alabama and the Florida Panhandle, as 6 to 12 inches of rain is possible, with isolated
amounts up to 18 inches. Isolated tornadoes can also be expected throughout the day.

Q: When are they
going to have a better
way of preparing for a
colonoscopy? My
doctor keeps remind-
ing me that I need
one, but it seems like
such a hassle!
F.P., Tacoma, Wash.
A: I agree with you that the worst
part of a colonoscopy is the bowel prep.
A clear liquid-only diet the day prior to
the procedure is not fun either. The
procedure itself is a breeze. With the
superb short-acting intravenous seda-
tion used nowadays, not only will you
not feel the scope, youll probably nev-
er even see the scope. Theres a brand
new bowel prep that might make your
cleanout experience a whole lot easier.
On July 16, the FDA approved Prepopik
powder to help clean out the colon
prior to colonoscopy. The recommend-
ed cleansing regimen is to dissolve a
small packet of citrus-flavored laxative
powder in just five ounces of cold wa-
ter, taking one packet the evening prior
to the planned procedure and a second
packet dissolved in five ounces of cold
water the morning of the procedure.
The evening dose is followed by the
consumption of 40 ounces of water or a
clear liquid of your choice; the morning
dose is followed by the consumption of
24 ounces of water or clear liquids.
This is the simplest bowel cleansing
regimen to date.
Q: I read an article that described a
big jump in the number of kids with
juvenile (type 1) diabetes. I can under-
stand the big increase in type 2 dia-
betes from todays obesity problem, but
why would rates of diabetes in children
be going up? Is there something in our
food or environment to blame?
T.U., Orlando, Fla.
A: Its definitely a real phenomenon.
The incidence of type 1 diabetes (an
auto-immune condition where the
young persons body attacks its insulin-
producing cells in the pancreas) is now
twice as high as it was in the 1980s,
and 10-20 times more common than it
was 100 years ago. While rising rates of
type 2 adult-onset diabetes can be
explained by the obesity epidemic, the
incidence of type 1 diabetes should be
relatively unchanged over a few dec-
ades.
We dont know whats causing the
worldwide trend toward higher rates of
type 1 diabetes, but several hypotheses
have been proposed:
The Hygiene Hypothesis: The lack
of exposure to once-prevalent germs
results in autoimmune hypersensitivity
and the destruction of insulin-produc-
ing cells by rogue white blood cells.
The Sunshine Hypothesis: In-
creased time spent indoors is reducing
childrens exposure to vitamin D. Low-
er vitamin D levels are linked to an
increased risk of type 1 diabetes.
The Accelerator Hypothesis: The
rising height and weight of children
has accelerated their risk of type 1
diabetes by stressing the insulin-pro-
ducing cells.
The Cows Milk Hypothesis: Expo-
sure to cows milk during the first 6
months of life wreaks havoc on the
immune system and increases the risk
of type 1 diabetes.
The POP Hypothesis: Exposure
to persistent organic pollutants in our
environment increases the risk of dia-
betes.

Organic jelly beans. Organic
potato chips. Organic vodka.
Organic is a term perceived as
healthier than conventional
products...no matter what they
are, according to a recent article
by registered dietitian Sharon
Palmer in the Environmental
Nutrition newsletter. So what
does the term organic mean
anyway?
According to the United States
Department of Agriculture
which regulates organic stan-
dards organic food is pro-
duced without using most con-
ventional pesticides, fertilizers
with synthetic ingredients,
bioengineering, or ionizing
radiation. In other words, or-
ganic refers to how a food is
farmed.
Organic does not necessarily
mean a food cant be highly
processed, however. (Proc-
essed means it has been
changed in some way from its
natural form.) Take a chocolate
chip cookie, for example. OK,
take two. Organic chocolate
chip cookies are made with
organically cultivated wheat,
sugar, butter and chocolate. The
organic flour and sugar can
still be refined and white, how-
ever. And the nutritional value
of these cookies may be no
different from regular cookies.
So while organic farming meth-
ods help ensure healthy soil and
ecosystems, organic standards
do not regulate a food products
nutritional attributes, says
Palmer. Take a product made
with organic brown rice syrup or
evaporated cane juice. Its still
sugar. And organic sweetened
beverages, candy bars, and
chips? If they are stripped of
healthful nutrients, theyre just
organic junk food.
What about organic milk? It comes
from cows that were fed organic
feed and were not given hor-
mones or certain types of medi-
cations for illness. Both organic
and regular milk contain the
same profile of essential nutri-
ents, say nutrition experts. And
both types of milk are enriched
with vitamin D a hormone-like
vitamin that helps the body
absorb calcium.

USHVILLE, Ill. Stepping into the office of Dr. Russell Dohner feels like a trip
back in time. At his one-man practice, the phones are rotary, the records are hand-
written, and the charge since the 1970s has been just $5. Its a fee that the 87-year-
old family physician refuses to change because, he says, most everyone can afford $5.
And if they cant, he says with a shrug, we see them anyway.
And so, even before his clinic
opens at 9 a.m., the line out front is
already 12 people deep. Factory
workers with callused hands. Farm-
ers in muddy work boots. Senior ci-
tizens leaning on canes and slump-
ing teenagers with spiky hair.
All day long, they pack the gray
vinyl seats in the waiting room. So
many people come that, on a recent
day, there wasnt a seat for Larry Le-
nover, a 64-year-old heavy equip-
ment operator, who was happy to
standbecause, he says, Dr. Dohner
cares about everyone. It doesnt
matter if you got money, or you
dont.
That open-door policy has made
Dohner a beloved figure in Rush-
ville, Ill., a city of 3,200 people
about 60miles northwest of Spring-
field, Ill. that has suffered froma
drumbeat of factory closings and
layoffs.
But its not just the $5 fee that
keeps the locals lining up. It is, they
say, the kindness he has shown and
the impact of his care. It is, in short,
Dr. Dohner, a calmand gentle pres-
ence in a rumpled suit and fedora
hat, whohas, for nearlysixdecades,
held the hand of the dying, tended
to the sick and injured, and helped
everyone else get on with the busi-
ness of living.
There was the baby girl who suf-
fered from seizures. He would
come to the house and sit beside
her crib all night, recalledthe girls
sister, Lynn Stambaugh, now 49
and still touched by the memory.
And the gasoline fire that left a 10-
year-old boy badly burned. That
MCT PHOTO
Austin Clark, left, of Macomb, undergoes an examination, for sports eligibility given by Dr. Russell Dohner,
87, in Dohners Rushville office. Dr. Dohner has been in the same practice since 1955, and charges only $5
per visit, or $8 for a sports eligibility physical exam.
Five-dollar doctor
Physicians fee is still $5 unchanged since the 1970s
PART OF THE FORMULA, he says, is keeping costs low. He doesnt take
health insurance, or do any billing. When patients arrive, there are no forms
to fill out. Just tell the doctor whats wrong, and hell do his best to help.

child survived in large part be-
cause there was a doctor in town
Dohner, of course who was
in the emergency room that day.
He loves the people in this
community, says Mayor Scott
Thompson, 51, who, like most
people over the age of 30, was de-
liveredbyDohner. Andthe thing
is, people love him back.
He is a small man whose large
eyeglasses, bald head, and tufts
of thinning white hair, just above
his ears, give him the look of a
wise, old owl. Stooped and in-
creasingly frail, he moves slowly,
barely picking up his feet as he
shuffles between exam rooms.
But he continues to work be-
cause he knows, if not for his low
fee, many couldnt afford medical
care.
I never went into medicine to
make money, he says. I wanted
to be a doctor, taking care of peo-
ple.
He works seven days a week,
opening his office for an hour be-
fore church on Sundays. He has
never takena vacation, andrarely
left Schulyer County, except for
the occasional medical confer-
ence.
If someone gently suggests
that he cut back, his answer is al-
ways the same.
What if someone needs me?
The day begins at 8 a.m. at the
one-story, 25-bed hospital in
Rushville, where every morning
he handles paperwork and visits
patients.
Next stopis the red-brickstore-
front on the town square where
he has practiced for 57 years.
All day long, patients cycle in
andout the door. Dohner pats the
knee of Ethan Deloche, a teary 4-
year-old who came in with an
itchy rash. Lets get him some
Prednisone tablets, says Dohn-
er, handing a prescription to the
boys harried mother.
A moment later, he removes
stitches and places a bandage on
the arm of Harold Morrell, 86.
Just leave that on for a day or
two, and I think youll be all
right, he says.
He moves slowly and steadily,
up and down the office hallway.
Everyone is seen on a first-
come, first-served basis.
Records goingbackfive dec-
ades are kept on handwritten,
4-by-6-inch index cards, which
are constantly getting misplaced.
Dohner and his 85-year-old
nurse, Rose Busby, spend much
of the day bickering about lost
cards.
Ive worked here 12 years,
sighed Edith Moore, 84, the re-
ceptionist. Sometimes it feels
like 100.
But Moores eyes grow wide
and her demeanor softens when
she talks about the people who
come for treatment.
We have an envelope here, for
people who cant pay, she whis-
pers.
She opens her desk drawer to
show an envelope, stuffed with
dollar bills.
Who puts the money in the en-
velope?
A lot of us, she says.
.
Raised during the Depression
on a farm near Vermont, Ill., in
the next countyover, Dohner was
the fifth of seven children. When
he was 13 years old, he suffered
from severe tonsillitis, which re-
sulted in fevers and seizures.
WhenI came out of the seizures,
Doctor Hamilton would be
there, he remembers. Thats
how I decided I wanted to be a
doctor.
He graduated fromNorthwest-
ern University medical school in
1953withthe intentionof becom-
ing a cardiologist. But Rushville
neededa doctor. He movedtothe
small town in 1955, intending to
stay for five years. Those years
came and went and, he says,
there wasnt anyone else to take
care of the people here.
Dohner decided to stay, but his
wife at the time did not. After
their divorce, he never remar-
ried, and never had any children.
He was close to his siblings and
his 11nieces and nephews. But in
manyways, he was weddedtothe
town.
Hes given up everything to
stay here and to take care of peo-
ple, says Dr. Linda Forestier, 64,
the only other local physician,
who has practiced in Rushville
for four years.
To mark Dohners 50 years in
medicine, the town held a huge
celebration a few years ago. At
the parade, held in his honor,
Dohner waved from a horse-
drawn carriage.
Today, thewalls of his officeare
plastered with childrens crayon
drawings. In his office refrigera-
tor, boxes of temperature-sensi-
tive medication sit next to boxes
of chocolate, given to him by pa-
tients. A stick of homemade but-
ter, wrapped in cellophane, bears
a handwritten note: 4U because
you are a good person.
Charging $5 a patient, Dohner
doesnt make any money for him-
self or his practice. He says he
supports his work with income
from his family farm, and other
investments.
Part of the formula, he says, is
keeping costs low. He doesnt
take health insurance, or do any
billing. When patients arrive,
there are no forms to fill out. Just
tell the doctor whats wrong, and
hell do his best to help. If he
cant, hell send you to someone
who can.
For those too sick to make the
trip to the office, Dohner still
makes house calls.
Though some in his waiting
room are poor and have no other
place to go, others simply prefer
the elderly doctor who has treat-
ed some families for generations.
My kids love him. They wont
see anyone else, says Lisa Hill,
39. When her young son came
down with asthma, Dohner had
tobribe himwithSnickers bars to
get him to see a specialist.
He saved my husbands life,
says Sharon Werner, 58, explain-
inghow, after the family hadseen
other doctors, it was Dohner who
diagnosed her husbands appen-
dicitis. We have good health in-
surance, but wed still rather
come here.
Moore, the receptionist, locks
the door at 5 p.m. But Dohner
stays as late as it takes to see ev-
ery patient.
It is after 8 p.m., on a recent
evening, when he finally ushers
the last person to the door.
This is what Ive done all my
life, he says as he grabs his hat
andprepares toheadtothe hospi-
tal, where he typically eats din-
ner at his desk and checks on a
few patients before going home
for the evening. This is what Im
supposed to be doing. I dont
have any reason to quit.

prise. Since then, manufactur-
ers have been releasing their
products in August instead of
October.
Last year was one of the mil-
dest flu seasons on record, said
Dr. Lisa Grohskopf, a medical
officer with the Centers for
Disease Control and Preven-
tions influenza division. But
she says consumers shouldnt
get complacent; the CDC still
recommends everyone older
than 6 months be vaccinated.
We know the flu is unpre-
dictable, so we cant say what
this season will be like, Groh-
skopf said.
Federal statistics projected
that drug manufacturers
would make as many 149 mil-
lion vaccine doses for this sea-
son. The CDC does not antici-
pate shortages. About 132 mil-
lion immunizations were given
in 2011-12, covering about 45
percent of adults.
More people are getting im-
munized at the same places
where they buy their groceries
and fill their prescriptions
rather than doctors offices.
Many say they like the conve-
nience. Retailers usually are
set up to process insurance
billing on-site, so customers
with coverage or on Medicare
pay nothing out of pocket.
A CDC report found that in
the 2010-11 flu season, about 18
percent of adults received
their flu shots in stores, while
40 percent went to doctors of-
fices.
States regulate how vaccines
are given outside of medical
settings, and the CDC has no
recommendations about
where is the best place to get a
shot. We think its fortunate
you now can get a flu vaccine
in a wide variety of places,
Grohskopf said.
Here are answers to the most
commonly asked flu questions.
Q: Do I need to be vaccinat-
ed against the flu?
A: The Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention recom-
mends everyone age 6 months
and older receive a flu vaccine.
Those who most need immuni-
zation: seniors age 65 and ol-
der, pregnant women, patients
with certain medical condi-
tions, caregivers of patients
who develop serious complica-
tions from contracting the flu.
Q: How does a flu shot work?
A: Seasonal influenza vac-
cines combine inactive strains
of three flu viruses. The formu-
la, when injected, encourages
your immune system to build
antibodies that fight infection.
The vaccine works against the
three most commonly circulat-
ing flu viruses: influenza B, the
H1N1 A strain and the H3N2 A
strain.
Q: Do I really need a vaccine
every year?
A: Yes. Thats because public
health officials annually look
at which flu viruses will be
most prevalent, then set a vac-
cine formula designed to
thwart those particular
strains. So the formula can
change from year to year. The
2012-13 vaccine cocktail is dif-
ferent from last years, mean-
ing you could be unprotected if
you skip this years shot.
Q: What about children?
A: Children age 6 months
through 8 years who never
have been immunized for flu
will need two shots, four
weeks apart. The CDC also is
advising that children this age
who did not receive at least
one dose of the 2010-2011 vac-
cine, or for whom its not cer-
tain they were immunized in
2010-2011, should receive two
doses of the 2011-2012 season-
al vaccine. Ask your doctor for
details.
Q: When does flu season
start?
A: It typically begins in Oc-
tober and can last through
May, with the season peaking
in February. But flu is unpre-
dictable, and seasonal peaks
vary by region.
Q: Why should I get vacci-
nated now instead of this fall?
A: The CDC advises people
to be vaccinated as soon as
shots are available, so theyll
be ready when flu season
starts. Many providers began
receiving vaccines this month,
as manufacturers are shipping
earlier. Shots given now
should protect you through the
season, and you wont have to
worry about supply shortages
later. It takes your body two
weeks following the vaccine to
form flu-fighting antibodies.
But even if its past October,
the CDC suggests you still go
ahead and get a shot.
Q: I hate needles! Can I take
a flu pill instead?
A: Sorry, no. But now there
is an intradermal vaccine that
uses a pin-prick needle, about
90 percent smaller than the
standard model. It injects un-
der the skin rather than deep
into the muscle, causing less
arm-ache afterward. People ag-
es 18 to 64 can have intrader-
mal vaccines.
Q: What about the new high-
dose shot for seniors?
A: The Fluzone High-Dose
for people older than 65 first
became available in 2010. It
has four times the antigen of a
standard shot, to boost the im-
mune response, as the body
loses the ability to produce an-
tibodies as we age. More side
effects have been reported
with the high-dose vs. the reg-
ular shot. People who have se-
vere egg allergies or who had a
serious reaction to a standard
flu vaccine should not get the
high dose.
Q: What about the nasal
spray vaccine?
A: This vaccine is different
from the shots in that it con-
tains a live but weakened ver-
sion of the flu virus. Healthy
people ages 2 to 49 can use the
spray. People with egg aller-
gies, and serious medical con-
ditions or weakened immune
systems and their caregiv-
ers should not use this vac-
cine or check with a doctor
first.
Q: Does Medicare or my in-
surance cover vaccines?
A: Flu shots are covered un-
der Medicare Part B and most
private insurance plans. There
usually are no out-of-pocket
costs to consumers, but ask
your provider.
Q: What are the risks?
A: Serious complications
from flu vaccines are rare.
Common mild problems in-
clude: soreness or redness
where the shot was given, fe-
ver, headache, fatigue and
cough. Allergic reaction symp-
toms include: difficulty breath-
ing, fast heart rate, dizziness
or hives. People with severe al-
lergies, especially to eggs,
should talk to their doctor be-
fore getting a shot.
Still have questions? Call the
CDC at 800-232-4636, or go to
cdc.gov/flu.

Residents of United Methodist Homes Tunkhannock Campus
recently welcomed 7-year-old therapy dog Jake and his handler
Dave Overbeck to campus for Jakes 150th senior facility visit.
Overbeck rescued Jake in 2005 from a golden retriever rescue
group in North Carolina. After completing a wide variety of train-
ing courses, including obedience, Canine Good Citizen and therapy
dog certification, the pair began making visits to senior facilities
and hospitals in 2007. They typically make five visits per week,
giving obedience demonstrations and interacting with residents
and patients. Resident Lillian Davis watches as Jake and Overbeck
do a demonstration during their visit.

les, CA 90069

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I am a
woman in my early
40s. I have two chil-
dren. I have never
been married. Five
months ago I met a
fine man. Mr. M.
is in his mid-40s and
was married for about four years in
the late 1990s.
I am very much in love with Mr.
M., and he has shown me how much
he loves me in many different ways.
However, he says there are no wed-
ding bells in the future.
Do you think Mr. M. is afraid to
make a commitment because of his
divorce? Has a woman ever proposed
marriage to a man? Is there anything
wrong with it?
I have one more problem. Mr. M.
likes to be all alone some days. And
he takes long weekends to get away
by himself. Is this common?
Concerned in New Jersey
Dear Concerned: There is nothing
wrong with a woman proposing to
a man; many women have done it.
And yes, it is entirely possible that
Mr. M.s experience with divorce has
left him marriage-shy. Since you are
serious about him, pursue the reason
for his statement that there are no
wedding bells in the future.
While its common for men (and
women) to spend alone time and
have separate interests, they dont,
as a rule, involve spending long
weekends away by themselves. If Mr.
M. goes on an occasional spiritual re-
treat, I see nothing unusual about it.
However, if he is a loner by nature
the person who will be lonely is YOU.
Dear Abby: We have read about mar-
ried couples renewing their marriage
vows. My wife and I have been mar-
ried 50 years and thought perhaps
this would be a way of celebrating
this milestone. However, the more we
discuss it, the more illogical it seems.
We took our vows, ending with
... til death do us part. Over the
course of the marriage, we have had
many wonderful experiences as well
as some of the worst life can offer.
Through it all, we have loved each
other. There was never a time that we
did not think in terms of we.
We believe it would be an insult to
each other to renew that which seems
to be in good condition. Vows dont
wear out. Devotion to each other
becomes a way of life, to the point
that life is unthinkable for each of us
without the other.
We still find each other attractive.
Like wine, old vows improve with age
and become more precious.
Young at Heart in Connecticut
Dear Young: You appear to have an
enviable marriage, and I congratulate
you both. However, some couples
experience the same thrill from
renewing their vows that they did
in pledging them in the first place.
Please do not judge them or minimize
the reaffirmation of their love.
Dear Abby: Over the years, you have
provided me with insight and many
grins and chuckles. I hope to return
the favor by providing you with at
least a smile:

memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus

ARIES (March 21-April 19). Artists
inspire you, but that doesnt
mean you want to copy what
they do. Theres something in
the essence that carries over
into your work. The result is an
homage.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youve
had many practice runs at a
certain task, and now youre
ready to show that you can do it
for real. Your courage and con-
fidence rise as your safety net
depletes.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You need
privacy, silence and long stretch-
es of time to do your work. Stake
your claim on a room with a
door that closes out the rest of
the world, even if that room hap-
pens to be a closet.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Ask
for a favor and elaborate some
as to the reason why you need
it. People will love to help you
(especially fellow water signs)
when they understand why you
need the help.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Success
depends on self-reliance. Dive
in, and along the way, youll pick
up the skills, supplies and knowl-
edge you need. A Capricorn will
be instrumental.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). When
you do the things that feed
your soul, your soul will grow,
animating even the smallest
parts of your daily life and radi-
ating through your words and
actions.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you
stumble, dont worry. Falling is an
opportunity. While youre down
there, pick up something off the
ground that might be useful to
you when you come back up.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You
have an open heart. People
watch you interact in the world,
and they can feel the warm
energy you project. For this
reason, youll attract many dif-
ferent types of people, and youll
have to weed out what you dont
want.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Your timing is exquisite. You will
be enthusiastic when it counts,
confident when it matters most
and restful when your body and
mind most need restoration.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Today provides you with the
opportunity to gratefully
acknowledge your competition.
After all, they are the reason
youll get so good at what you
have set out to do.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Youre a productivity ninja. Like
the best ninjas, you carefully
choose your target, you dont
act unless youre sure, and
you use the elements in your
environment to your advantage.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Sometimes its actually better to
procrastinate. It saves you from
potentially futile efforts. Youd
be amazed at how many prob-
lems will solve themselves today
simply because you neglected
them.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Aug. 28).
Youll further your aims as you
look for opportunities to give
your knowledge, energy and
other resources to those who
could use them. September
begins a journey. Youll trade old
habits for a new look in October.
Your lucky numbers are: 8, 24,
19, 48 and 1.
