HARRISBURG Gov. Tom Corbett had many decisions to make when he took office in January, and he looked to Northeastern Pennsylvania to make three of them. Corbett, 62, selected three cabinet members with deep roots in the region. They are: Dan Meuser, Secretary of Revenue, of Kingston Township. Richard J. Allan, Secretary of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, who grew up in Wilkes-Barre and worked in the family business, Allan Industries. Frank Noonan, commissioner of the Pennsylvania State Police, who

has lived in Clarks Summit for 30 years. All three are good men, Corbett said. They possess good character and they have good judgment. And they are personable and can work with people. Corbett, who served as the states Attorney General before taking over the governors office, said having
worked with Noonan since 2005 made him an easy choice. Corbett said Noonan is a decision maker who had the background for the job. Noonan is a Marine Corps veteran of the Vietnam War and worked for the FBI before coming to the AGs office as senior agent/lead investigator. I asked Frank to become senior
agent when Cliff OHara retired in 2009, Corbett said. He can work with people, and he can make decisions. And I felt it was important to have a state police commissioner from outside of the state police ranks. Frank brought a fresh perspective to the job.

No joke: Frivolous suits by prisoners costly

Inmates have the right to sue, and taxpayers are on the hook even for the baseless legal actions.

Luzerne County prison officials anticipated that state prisoners Shawn Quinnones and Anthony Gray would cause problems when they arrived at the county lockup in 2007 to await trial on charges of assaulting a state prison guard. The inmates had numerous incidents of misconduct while housed at the State Correctional Institution, Dallas, and it
was expected their behavior would not improve. County officials never anticipated the roughly 10 months Quinnones and Gray spent at the prison would end up Quinnones costing taxpayers more than $89,000, however. The expense, which continues to grow, has nothing to do with the typical costs associated with housing an inmate, such as security, food or clothing. The entire cost is related to the defense of four lawsuits Quinnones and Gray, either jointly or separately, filed against the
prison alleging violations of their rights during their short stints there. The inmates, who are representing themselves, have made myriad claims in the suits, ranging from allegations of abuse to procedural violations relating to deductions taken from their inmate accounts. The cases are among numerous lawsuits that have been filed against the prison and other county agencies in recent years by inmates and others who are unhappy with the judicial or social welfare system. The vast majority of the suits are filed

A group of about 10 protesters called for Mayor Thomas M. Leighton to resign at a rally in front of City Hall Saturday afternoon. The rally was organized by Frank Sorick, who sought a Republican nomination to run for mayor in the May primary but lost the GOP nod to Lisa Cope. Sorick said he is calling on the mayor to resign in light of a preliminary state ethics probe into the hiring of his children as part-time city emLeighton ployees. Sorick also alleged Leighton campaigned inside a polling station in the May primaries. Also among the protesters was city resident Sandy Fonzo, who gained national attention for her outburst at ex-Judge Mark Ciavarella following his conviction on corruption charges and subsequent efforts to promote juvenile justice reform. Fonzo accused Leighton of nepotism and questioned how many underprivileged children could have used the income from the summer jobs Leightons children held.

Firm seeks prom advisers
WILKES-BARRE The River Common Chalk Festival gave attendees the opportunity to once again enjoy the Susquehanna on Saturday, despite recent flooding. Millennium Circle was filled with local residents, many of them children, enjoying both the weather, various environmentally based displays, and the opportunity to utilize the chalk provided free of charge to craft little bits of artwork on the massive areas of concrete available at the circle. Area resident Rachel Galassi and daughter Tessa Miorelli said they worked together to add a triangle of color to the park. Both mother and daughter expressed gratitude to the organizers of the event for providing a chance for residents to participate in an outdoor activity after recent flooding. We are really having fun, said Galassi, hot dog in hand, indicating that they enjoyed both the fun and the food offerings. Organizers of the event agreed with Galassis assessment of success in once again allowing area residents to fully enjoy the river area. John Maday, past president of the
River Common Association, emphasized the three foundational keys to success of the organization: realism, optimism, and pragmatism. Sure, we know that Millennium Circle will probably flood periodically, said Maday, but we are prepared to deal with that because of long term planning, both in developing and maintaining the area.

Roberta Troy, volunteer of the Penn State Extension, said if the environment was preserved in such a way that properties retained water, flooding would be less likely. We are all part affected by the river, said Troy, saying that the effects of flooding are often indirect and encouraging property owners to gain an understanding of watershed issues. Other presentations at the festival included the Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commission presenting information on local fishing opportunities, and fire safety information. Area residents seemed to enjoy all aspects of this years Chalk Festival, both artistic and environmental. It was a pleasure to spend this beautiful day here and we are grateful for the wonderful weather, said Rick and Jean Rutter, who were accompanied by their four children and granddaughter.

Chain of bras extends the message of breast cancer awareness

By CAMILLE FIOTI Times Leader Correspondent
BILL TARUTIS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Hundreds carry a chain of bras along the Market Street Bridge in Wilkes-Barre for the fight against breast cancer.
KINGSTON Thousands of bras in a variety of sizes and colors lay in a large mound on the pavilion floor at Kirby Park Saturday. Frantically tying the straps together, Michael Valovich, 46, of Hazleton, joined KRZ disc jockeys Sue Barry, Rocky Rhodes and Lissa as they raced to form an enormous chain of bras that would stretch across the Market Street Bridge into Wilkes-Barre and back to the park. More than 300 people attended the third annual Bras Across
the Bridge event, sponsored by KRZ and the American Cancer Society to support breast cancer awareness. Valovich, whose wife, Kelly, is a breast cancer survivor, said this was the second year he, Kelly, and their two sons Michael, 5, and Alex, 4, participated in the event. Sporting a giant pink hat trimmed and a pink feather boa, Kelly said she never felt better. Diagnosed in December 2009, Kelly said shes been cancer-free for more than a year, adding that she doesnt take anything for granted anymore. Patty Lunski, 56, and Barb Dorak, 49, both of Hanover Township, dangled a hot pink,
rhinestone studded, size 36DD bra over the pile. Attached to one of the cups was a small photo of Lunskis sister, Ann Marie Grula, who died from breast cancer in 2008 at the age of 47. As they ceremoniously dropped the bra into the heap, they remembered Grula, as well as Doraks stepchildrens mother who also died of breast cancer several years ago. Roughly 20 long rows of bras were spread out on the grass as the final connections to the chain were made. Many of the bras were inscribed with messages honoring loved ones who fought breast cancer.
Rep. Karen Boback, R-Harveys Lake, has introduced legislation to require the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board to report information about its executive sessions to the governor and state legislature, stating it would ensure that the board is appropriately heeding state Right to Know and Sunshine acts. The bill adds language to existing law requiring the board include in its annual reports information about the number of executive sessions it conducted and the Boback agenda of those sessions. The bill is part of a package of legislation largely based on a grand jury recommendations for rehabilitating the board. Other legislation in the 14-bill package would: Require annual audits of the board by an independent state agency. Prohibit any person from serving as a member of the PGCB if he or she was an applicant for or holder of a Pennsylvania slot machine license. Prohibit any board employee from obtaining employment with a gaming entity or associated firm for two years.

Zombie program cuts deficit

BANGKOK
WASHINGTON Theyre calling it the zombie in the budget. Its a long-term care plan the Obama administration has put on hold, fearing it could go bust if actually implemented. Yet while the program exists on paper, monthly premiums the government may never collect count as reducing federal deficits. Real or not, thats $80 billion over the next 10 years. The Community Living Assistance Services and Supports program, CLASS for short, may just keep lurching along indefinitely. It would join other peculiar creatures of the federal budget such as trust funds that are actually more like
IOUs and Medicare cuts that can be counted twice. Its a gimmick that produces phantom savings, said Robert Bixby, executive director of the Concord Coalition, a nonpartisan group that advocates deficit control. That money should have never been counted as deficit reduction because it was supposed to be set aside to pay for benefits, Bixby added. The fact that theyre not actually doing anything with the program sort of compounds the gimmick. The program was created under President Barack Obamas health care overhaul, and arguably provided much of the 10-year, $143 billion in savings claimed under the law. But now some Capitol
Hill aides have dubbed CLASS a budget zombie. The administration recently asked Congress to hold off on money for implementingCLASSasittriestofindawayto make it solvent for the long run. The chief financial expert for CLASS left the government, saying the programs staff was abruptly reassigned. CLASS was a priority of the late Democratic Sen. Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts, who envisioned a voluntary, long-term care insurance plan sponsored by the government, without the overhead costs of private insurers, or the rigorous pre-screening they require. CLASS beneficiaries would pay an affordable monthly premium while they were healthy and working. In exchange,
they could collect a modest daily cash benefit if they became disabled. Congress included CLASS in the health care law, specifying it must be self-sustaining. Kennedys idea was to give families some financial breathing room. The burden of long-term care is growing. But a central design flaw dogged CLASS from the beginning. Unless large numbers of healthy people willingly sign up during their working years, soaring premiums driven by the needs of disabled beneficiaries would destabilize it, eventually requiringataxpayerbailout.Themainreason the program produced budget savings in its first10 years was a rule that enrollees pay in for at least five years before collecting benefits.
Floods threatening Bangkok
GREED IS NOT GOOD IN PHILADELPHIA
hailands prime minister is warning that rising floodwaters which have wreaked havoc across the nation are now threatening the capital, Bangkok, as the death toll from the worst monsoon rains in decades rose Saturday to 253. Prime Minister Yingluck Shinawatra said the flooding which has severed rail links with the north, shut dozens of highways and swamped ancient Buddhist temples in the city of Ayutthaya has reached a crisis level. Bangkok has so far been spared serious damage, but many fear it could be inundated as large amounts of water flows from submerged northern rice fields toward the Gulf of Thailand.

Anthony deposed in lawsuit

Disguised in sunglasses and a baseball cap, Casey Anthony was deposed Saturday for a civil lawsuit that accuses her of ruining another womans reputation. Attorneys for Zenaida Gonzalez used videoconferencing to question Anthony, who was at an undisclosed location in Florida. John Morgan, who is representing Gonzalez, said he asked Anthony about the disappearance of her 2-year-old daughter, Caylee. Anthony told detectives in 2008 that Caylee had been kidnapped by a nanny named Zenaida Gonzalez. Detectives said no such baby sitter existed. Morgans client, who has the same name as the fictional baby sitter, has sued Anthony, claiming her reputation was ruined.

Japan has grounded its F-15 fighters for the second time in three months after a fuel tank and parts of a mock missile fell off a jet on a training mission, officials said Saturday.

Hazmat sent to bleach fight

Authorities in Maryland say two women threw bleach and another chemical on each other during a fight at a Walmart, prompting officials to evacuate the store for two hours and call in a hazardous materials team. Fire officials say 19 people had to be taken to hospitals, although only one was thought to have serious injuries. That person was taken to the Wilmer Eye Institute with a potentially serious eye injury. Fire officials were called to the store in the Baltimore suburb of Arbutus shortly before 11 a.m. Saturday.

ThebattleforSirteiscrucialbecauseLibyas new leaders have promised to declare liberation after it is captured even though fighting continues elsewhere and Gadhafi remains on the run.

Gadhafi forces also remain entrenched in the central city of Bani Walid, but the transitional leaders say they will declare liberation without it because Sirtes fall will give them control over all seaports and harbors. British Defense Secretary Liam Fox pledged to keep up NATO airstrikes even after Sirtes fall, saying the international
military action would continue as long as the remnants of the regime pose a risk to the people of Libya. We have a message for those who are still fighting for Gadhafi that the game is over, you have been rejected by the people of Libya, he told reporters Saturday in Tripoli. Anti-Gadhafi forces met strong resistance as they pushed to within less than half a mile from loyalist fighters dug in around Sirtes convention center .

Sadly missed by Your Loving Daughters Leslee & Helen and Devoted Wife Mary Alice
Its almost a year since you went away, With us here I wish you could have stayed. As we watched you go to sleep, Your memories inside us will keep. With a saddened heart we said our goodbyes, As the tears welled up in our eyes. You were strong and brave right to the end, No more for you to pretend. Although we loved you, you could not stay. But we know well see you someday. Your loving heart is beating no more, For you have walked through heavens door. Somehow I know this was Gods plan, to make an angel from a great man. Now you watch over us from above, And send down your undying love. Father, Forever in Our Hearts.
Sadly missed and loved by his family.

Corbett said Noonan has been traveling around the state meeting troopers. Hes a leader and hes leading, Corbett said. Corbett said he met Allan a number of times, but didnt know him very well. He said he looked at Allans background and was certain he was the man for the DCNR job. Again, we wanted someone who could manage and who could make decisions and Rick fit that bill, Corbett said. He had a business background and a lot of community involvement. Corbett said people skills are important in the DCNR position because of the extensive contact with the public. The job is all about people enjoying the outdoors, Corbett said. Rick understands that and he knows the environment. Hes a sportsman too. And Ellen Ferretti has done an outstanding job as deputy secretary. They make a great team. Corbett said the states parks and forest lands are an integral part of who we are as Pennsylvanians. Corbett said Meuser is facing incredible challenges in the Department of Revenue. He said a major announcement will be coming within the next 30 to 45 days, but the governor wouldnt tip his hand on what that might be. Lets just say we will be enforcing rules that are already out there, Corbett said. He said one of the areas being looked at is the state lottery system to make it more efficient and increase play. The information technology system at Meusers department is antiquated and Corbett said it will take a few years to get it into the 21st century. We will probably skip about five generations when we upgrade the system there, Corbett said. But its essential that we get that done. Corbett looked around his spacious office, adorned with historic portraits and murals, and reflected on his job and the task before him. He said he deliberated long hours before he selected whom he would entrust to help him run the state. I looked for people of quality, Corbett, of Allegheny County, said. And I wanted a geographic balance as best that I could attain. The Northeast did pretty well. They are three great people and thats why I put them in key positions. The governor was quick to note that when decisions are made, they are not made by region they are made in the best interests of the entire state.
PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER
Pennsylvania Governor Tom Corbett, in his office at the state Capitol on Wednesday, has chosen three people from Northeastern Pennsylvania for top posts in his administration.
DAN MEUSER
Dan Meuser was nominated by Gov. Tom Corbett on Jan. 18, 2011, to be Secretary of Revenue. Prior to being nominated, Meuser was with Pride Mobility Products for more than 20 years and is the former president of Pride USA. Located in Luzerne County, Pride Mobility Products Corp. is the worlds leading designer, manufacturer and distributor of power wheelchairs and scooters. Meuser serves on the boards of the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Wilkes-Barre YMCA and Misericordia University. Meuser attended the New York State Maritime College, then attended Cornell University through a Navy ROTC scholarship where he majored in economics and government studies. Meuser and his wife, Shelley, reside in Shavertown with their three children.
Meuser has been doing a lot of public speaking around the state, and he meets constantly with his senior staff. The Department of Revenue has more than 2,000 employees. Its been a learning experience for sure, Meuser said. But the governor didnt bring Dan Meuser us in to go to school. Were here Revenue Secretary Dan to get a job done.

RICHARD J. ALLAN
Gov. Tom Corbett nominated Richard J. Allan as DCNR secretary on March. The state Senate confirmed the nomination by a vote of 50-0. Since 1991, Allan has served as executive director for the Pennsylvania, Maryland and Delaware members of the Institute of Scrap Recycling Industries, the national trade association that represents the recycling industry. Since 2005, he also has been a consultant to energy producers in the electric, wind, solar and coal sectors. Allan has served on the boards of the Pennsylvania Environmental Council and Pennsylvania Resources Council since 2000. Allan was also a member of the energy and environmental committees for Gov. Corbetts transition team. Allan has long been involved in environmental interests. He was a founding member of Back Mountain Recreation, Inc. He also was a founding member of the North Branch Land Trust, which provides management to more than 10,000 acres of land in Northeastern Pennsylvania. He also has worked with the LACAWAC Sanctuary Foundation. Allan earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Environmental Sciences/Biology from Wilkes University in 1976. He was vice president and general manager of Allan Industries from 1975 to 1991. Allan and his wife, Patricia, live in Camp Hill, Cumberland County, and have two adult daughters.

FRANK NOONAN
Frank Noonan was nominated by Gov. Corbett on Jan. 18 to be Commissioner of Pennsylvania State Police and was confirmed by the State Senate on April 12. Noonan is a career investigator with more than 30 years of experience. He began his career in 1971 as an FBI agent, investigating public corruption, drugs, bank robberies and kidnappings. Following his retirement from the FBI in 1998, Noonan was appointed as Northeast Regional Director for the Attorney Generals Bureau of Narcotics Investigation. After 11 years as regional director, Noonan was promoted to Chief of Criminal Investigations for the Office of Attorney General in July of 2009. As regional director of the Northeast region, Noonan oversaw some of the largest drug cases in the history of Northeastern Pennsylvania, including: Operation Bonecrusher, a $2 million cocaine ring; Operation Smackdown, a multi-million dollar heroin ring; Operation Bad Rap, a multi-million dollar cocaine and marijuana ring; and Operation Heavyweight, two violent drug gangs operating in Wilkes-Barre. Noonan received the Linda E. Richardson Commitment to Excellence Award, which is the most prestigious award given by the Pennsylvania Narcotics Officers Association. He is a graduate of West Chester University. He and his wife reside in Clarks Summit; they have five children and eight grandchildren.
Allan was growing up in WilkesBarre, his family often visited Ricketts Glen, Hickory Run and Frances Slocum state parks. Now, at age 58, Allan is in charge of those and the other 114 state parks and 2.2 million acres of state forest lands. As secretary of the Department of Conservation and Natural Resources, he oversees some 2,000 full-time employees and another 1,000 seasonal workers. Allan served on Corbetts transition team and then was asked to join the cabinet. Allan said he had to step back lar spent in Pennsylvania parks, and evaluate how the post $9 is generated for the local would affect his family, person- economy.

Frank Noonan Corbett said Frank Noonan is the right man for the job commissioner of the Pennsylvania State Police. A former Marine, FBI agent and Attorney Generals Office lead investigator, Noonan is faced with ensuring the state police ranks are fully staffed. Noonan said there are 4,400 state troopers on staff about 200 to 300 below full complement, he said. But in the next six to eight months, Noonan said, as many as 800 current troopers become eligible for early retirement. Depending on how many exercise that option, the task of replacing them is daunting. Noonan, 65, said there are two state police classes in session right now with 90 recruits in one and 42 in the other. He said from the time a recruit enters the academy, it takes 18 months before they are actually deployed on the road. Looking forward, we could be facing a real crisis, Noonan said. Recruitment has become paramount with the state police troopers routinely visit college campuses and other sites to try to sign up young men and women. A person must be at least 21 years old to enroll and no older

than 40. With the state police becoming more and more responsible as the main law enforcement for small communities, Noonan said the demand is great. State police provide law enforcement for 80 percent of Pennsylvanias land mass, representing 30 percent of the state population. Troopers also patrol interstate highways and the Pennsylvania Turnpike. We provide a lot of coverage, Noonan said. Keeping troopers on the road is our primary concern. Noonan said state police are the first to respond to emergencies in small communities that have had to reduce or eliminate their police departments due to funding cuts. Its problematic when you have to cut back services, Noonan said. Thats what I worry about. All emergencies need a prompt response.
The uncertainty of terrorism is another of Noonans concern. He said he works with the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, the New York Police Department and the New York State Police to meet a challenge that didnt exist 12 years ago. You never know when or where or what might happen, Noonan said. But the real focus of the Pennsylvania State Police is law enforcement in general. So far, so good; we never want to make a mistake on that. Noonan said one of his goals is to improve the image of state troopers. Troop commanders have been asked to increase their presence in the community to project a positive image. Noonan oversees a $900 million budget. He said the administrative aspects of his job the budget, meeting with legislators and watching the fleet of vehicles, helicopters and airplanes demands a lot of his
time. Noonan smiles when he talks about Camp Cadet an chance for young people to experience what law enforcement is all about. Its an opportunity for us to give back to the kids, he said. But it helps down the road when we are trying to recruit new troopers. Noonan said he feels very fortunate to have lived in Northeastern Pennsylvania for 30 years. He said he is the state police commissioner for the entire state, but he has a special knowledge of the region and its needs and problems. He said he was honored to have been asked to serve under Corbett, whom he considers a close friend. When Im done being the Pennsylvania State Police Commissioner, I want people in the state police to be proud that I served as their commissioner, he said.

Corbett wants to fix education

By MARC LEVY Associated Press
PUBLIC PROPOSAL
Governor will make announcement at York school
COURT BRIEFS
WILKES-BARRE A man accused of using his former employers gas account to buy $518 worth of gasoline waived his right to a preliminary hearing in Wilkes-Barre Central Court on Thursday. Adam Francis Migatulski, 24, last-known address of Courtright Street, Plains Township, waived 12 theft counts and 11 identity-theft counts to Luzerne County Court. Wilkes-Barre police withdrew 11 forgery counts. Police allege Migatulski used the gasoline account of his former employer, Green Valley Landscaping, to pump gasoline into his own vehicle at the Petroleum Service Co., South Main Street, from April 21 to May 22. WILKES-BARRE A woman accused of injuring three people with a knife inside a tavern waived her right to a preliminary hearing in Wilkes-Barre Central Court on Thursday. Doreen Smith, 41, last-known address of South River Street, Wilkes-Barre, waived two counts of aggravated assault and simple assault and one count of harassment to Luzerne County Court. Wilkes-Barre police allege Smith injured three people with a knife during a fight inside Godfathers Bar on Brown Street on Oct. 23, 2010.
HARRISBURG Gov. Tom Corbett is expected Tuesday to put meat on the bones of a top priority essentially, his vision for how to fix the ailments of public education as his allies in the Legislature hope he will step more visibly into the battle to win over public opinion in Pennsylvania. Corbett hasnt yet said exactly what hell announce when he travels to a school in York. But lawmakers expect four main points: an expansion of the $75 million educational improvement tax credit program; a taxpayer-paid voucher program to help more children attend private schools; an overhaul of Pennsylvanias charter school law; and a requirement that teacher evaluations be based partly on student performance. Those are the heavy hitters, said House Education Committee Chairman Paul Clymer, RBucks. While the Republican governor has spoken often on the subject, even sympathetic lawmakers complain that he has not disclosed enough detail about what he wants, and that he has not become engaged in fighting for those initiatives, which may prove a tough sell in some quarters. The details of the proposals may divide Corbetts fellow Re-
publicans, who control both chambers of the Legislature, and resistance is also possible from school boards, Corbett teachers unions and Democrats. So October may be the beginning of that fight for Corbett, after a spring spent battling for a budget that resolved a multibillion-dollar deficit by making deep spending cuts, primarily in state aid to public schools, without increasing state taxes. The cuts in public school funding came as teachers point to the results of this years states standardized tests as a sign that Pennsylvanias public school students are showing remarkable performance gains against benchmarks required under federal law. Restoring these unprecedented funding cuts should be Job 1 for all of us, said David Broderic, a spokesman for the states largest teachers union, the Pennsylvania State Education Association. However, Tim Eller, a spokesman for the Department of Education, said the test results were very concerning when viewed through a different lens. Although the union says more than 90 percent of school districts were judged to have demonstrated adequate yearly progress, Eller said fewer than 40
percent of individual schools demonstrated such progress by test scores alone. Corbetts long-term goal is a school choice system in which taxpayer money flows not to a public school to educate a child who lives within its geographical boundary but to the student, who then chooses where he or she wants to attend school, whether public or private. We need to develop a system of portable education funding; something a student can take with him or her to the school that best fits their needs, Corbett said in his March 8 budget speech. Providing money for vouchers to attend private schools and an overhaul of the states charter school law could be a big, first step for Corbett toward that end. A bill sponsored by Senate Education Committee Chairman Jeff Piccola, R-Dauphin, would create new pathways for charter schools to open while also improving their public accountability, proponents say. However, the Philadelphiabased nonprofit Education Law Center of Pennsylvania, which advocates for poor and disadvantaged students, says the bill would fail to fix a myriad of problems with charters schools, which served about 90,000 students last year. Charter schools can play a valuable but limited role in helping to strengthen public schools
in communities facing complex educational challenges, the center said in testimony submitted to the House Education Committee this summer. But taxpayer dollars for education should be invested primarily in public schools that are open to all children and fully accountable to the public through elected school boards. Its not clear how ambitious Corbett will be when he endorses a private-school voucher plan. Education Secretary Ronald Tomalis told the House Education Committee in August that the administration supports extending vouchers to low-income students in the lowest 5 percent of schools based on combined math and reading scores. He also told the committee that the Corbett administration supports expanding vouchers later on to students who attend schools where fewer than half of the students are performing at grade level in combined reading and math scores. Money also will be a question; the bigger a voucher program, the more it will cost taxpayers.
WILKES-BARRE A man accused of spitting blood at officers waived his right to a preliminary hearing in WilkesBarre Central Court on Thursday. Brandon K. Underkoffler, 23, last-known address of Madison Street, Wilkes-Barre, waived two counts each of aggravated assault by prisoner, resisting arrest, four counts of disorderly conduct and one count of public drunkenness to Luzerne County Court. Wilkes-Barre police withdrew two counts of aggravated assault and one count of loitering and prowling at night. Police allege Underkoffler was found covered in blood in the area of Carey Avenue and Academy streets on Sept. 15. He was transported to Wilkes-Barre General Hospital, where he allegedly spat blood at officers in the emergency room, the criminal complaint reads. WILKES-BARRE Robert M. Gribble, 42, last-known address of Davis Place, Wilkes-Barre, waived his right to a preliminary hearing on charges of burglary and criminal mischief Thursday in Wilkes-Barre Central Court. The case goes to Luzerne County Court Wilkes-Barre police allege Gribble smashed a window at Uni-Mart, South Pennsylvania Avenue, and stole cigarettes on Sept. 26.

WILKES-BARRE In a meeting with The Times Leader endorsement board, a confident Mayor Tom Leighton touted his record of the last seven years and deflected questions about hiring practices that are now being explored by a state agency and his relationship with city tower Leo Glodzik. This is the most demanding and yet most rewarding job Ive ever had, Leighton said. Im proud of my strong record of achievement and I know that the city is better now than it was when I took office in 2004. Leighton, 51, a Democrat, is seeking his third term as the citys chief executive. He is opposed by Republican Lisa Cope and Libertarian Betsy Summers. Leighton seemed unfazed by news of a preliminary inquiry by the Pennsylvania Ethics Commission into his hiring practices. A complaint has been filed with the commission regarding Leightons hiring of his children and other relatives to summer jobs. Its unfortunate that you cant hire a relative who is qualified for the job, Leighton said, adding he wouldnt hire a relative again for a city job big or small. Leighton made sure to mention the 53 new businesses in the city, revitalizing the Coal Street
Complex, the Intermodal Center, Barnes and Noble, Movies 14 and the Courtright development a housing project on the former site of a lace mill that was ravaged by fire four years ago. Leighton said the number one issue facing the city remains public safety. He said he has hired 29 police officers in his seven years, but believes the city needs more cops on the street that it cant afford now. More officers will be added when the city can afford them, he said. Leighton said he will continue cracking down on nuisance properties, absentee landlords and disorderly tenants. He said has improved regulations, including mandatory inspections, rental licenses and mandated property managers for out-oftown landlords. The mayor wants to consolidate the health and building code departments, thereby doubling the inspection force to deal with persistent problems in neighborhoods. Leighton also plans to: Work with the Luzerne County Court to set up a housing court in the fight against blight. Establish a community development fund pool which would be a 50 percent match program up to $5,000 to fund exterior upgrades such as new siding for homes. Establish Wilkes-Barre Enhancement Blocks where residents would be eligible for tax abatement on improvements to their homes. The city would waive the reassessment fee normally associated with exterior improvements.

Leighton said the citys recycling program will soon be changed to be more effective and easier to comply with. I am proud to announce that starting in January, the City of WilkesBarre will be one of the first communities in NEPA to transition to a single-stream recycling pickup schedule, he said. The change will allow all recyclable materials to be combined for one collection.The mayor said he would not consider lowering the 3 percent wage tax, as proposed by Summers. How could we ever make up $9 million? That pays for our fire and police departments, Leighton said. In response to ongoing criticism over his handling the former Old River Road Bakery building, the mayor said Leo Glodzik of LAG Towing the tower with an exclusive city contract -- was the third person to make an offer on the former Old River Road Bakery building. He said the first two proposals fell through.
WILKES-BARRE An attorney for more than two decades, Molly Hanlon Mirabito has worked in the district attorneys office, in her private practice since 1987 and most recently tried a death penalty case in county court. Ive been preparing for 25 years (to be a county judge), Mirabito told The Times Leaders endorsement board. Im proud of my career as a whole. Mirabito, 49, of Forty Fort, is one of seven candidates vying for six open seats on the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas. Thousands of clients have trusted Mirabito to represent them in court on civil matters, and five district attorneys have trusted her to work in a courtroom to represent the county, and thats also something the candidate is proud of. In the last five years, Mirabito said, shes tried six criminal jury trials two resulting in a first-degree murder conviction, and one bench trial a case heard and decided by a judge. Mirabito said her legal work is split 50-50 between criminal and civil cases, and that shes appeared before a district magistrate on a variety of cases, hundreds of times. If elected to serve on the bench, Mirabito said she would support an ethics and personnel policy, but one separate from one drafted by county council members because a separation of powers is absolutely necessary. Mirabito said she would advocate reducing costs in the court system, but isnt sure if sharing law clerks and tipstaffs is the answer because a judge needs to be able to trust the people around them and value their opinions. Mirabito said she would seal court proceedings that are required to be sealed by law, including juvenile and adoption matters, or any criminal proceeding that could be compromised by information becoming public. Setting bail would be determined by a defendants prior criminal record, the offense itself and if

that person has failed to appear before, Mirabito said. When sentencing defendants, Mirabito said she would sentence someone to deter others from committing that crime, and to rehabilitate that offender. Several alternative sentencing programs are currently available, Mirabito said, including Drug Treatment Court, and that she would utilize those if the case called for it. A judges calendar should be available for the public to see, Mirabito said, and court employees should clock in like other county
employees. For the November general election, Mirabito said she expects to spend about $35,000 and is still not accepting contributions from attorneys. Most of her campaign money, Mirabito said, will come from her own pocket. Its unseemly to ask people for money when they need to fix their homes (because of the flooding), Mirabito said. Im the one who wants the job. Im the one who should pay for it.

SUITS
COST TO DEFEND PRISONER LAWSUITS

Pro-se litigants those who represent themselves without an attorney cost Luzerne County tens of thousands of dollars each year in legal fees. Listed below is a sampling of some of the cases handled by the law rm of Elliott, Greenleaf & Dean.
The federal court system has taken steps to reduce the number of frivolous cases, including enacting the Prison Litigation Reform Act in 1996.
plead a case, McDonough said. The Prison Litigation Reform Act has helped to a degree, he said. The act mandates, among other things, that a prisoner first try to resolve their complaints through the prisons internal grievance procedure. If a suit is filed before those actions are taken, the complaint will be automatically dismissed. Another key component is the so called three strikes rule. Any prisoner who has filed three lawsuits that have been deemed frivolous by the court is precluded from filing any further lawsuits unless the inmate receives special permission from the court to do so. Unfortunately for the county, the three strikes rule did not apply to Quinnones and Gray due to the timing of the suits, all of which were filed within a one- year period and proceeded simultaneously through the court, Dean said. Despite the frustration meritless lawsuits cause, Dean and McDonough stressed theyre not saying all prisoner litigation suits are frivolous, or that prisoners should be precluded from ever filing a lawsuit. Weve all seen instances of errors or negligence that has occurred in prisons. They do have a right to proceed to protect their constitutional rights, Dean said. In Luzerne County, there has been least one case in which an inmate prevailed in securing a settlement from the county. That case involved Scott Bolton, who was paralyzed from the chest down after he fell from a window while trying to escape from the county prison in 2003. Boltons suit, filed in 2008, alleged the prison failed to provide adequate facilities to accommodate his disability when he was returned there to await trial on another matter in 2005. Agreed to settle The prison, which was represented McDonough, agreed in last year to pay $5,000 to settle the case. McDonough said at the time that the prison was not admitting any wrongdoing. It decided to settle to avoid a prolonged litigation battle. Even with the problems, Dean and McDonough said, overall, they believe the federal court has done a good job in trying to curb frivolous suits given the obstacles. I dont know what the solution is, McDonough said. The court does its best, but it has a difficult task balancing the object of the statute, which is to weed out frivolous cases, and at the same time give pro-se litigants enough latitude to attempt to pursue a claim that may be meritorious, McDonough said.

tions Quinnones filed. The prison has had to respond to those filings. The two other cases filed by Quinnones and Gray are still pending. In the excessive force case, the prison filed a motion to dismiss the case in May, but a judge has not yet ruled on the matter. In the misconduct fee case, a judge recently dismissed most of the complaint, but allowed the suit to continue on the sole issue of whether the prison has an adequate policy in place that allows inmates to challenge deductions made from their accounts for misconducts. Dean said he believes both suits clearly lack merit and will be dismissed, just as the other two suits were. But that takes time, and money. Legal bill: $89,170 The legal bill for the four cases has reached $89,170 as of July 2011, according to records from the county controllers office. Quinnones and Gray were last discharged from the county prison in December 2008 and are now housed at separate state correctional institutions. Unfortunately for the county, theres little officials can do to prevent prisoners from filing a frivolous lawsuit, Dean and McDonough said. The federal court system has taken steps to reduce the number of frivolous cases, including enacting the Prison Litigation Reform Act in 1996. But those measures are far from foolproof, the attorneys said. Any prisoner case that is filed in federal court first goes to a law clerk, who screens the complaint to determine whether it meets the minimum standards
for a federal lawsuit. That standard is fairly low, McDonough said. A suit will pass the initial test so long as a prisoner has alleged a federal constitutional right was violated and provides at least some details of the alleged violation. A lot of inmates are pretty shrewd. They know how to

housed at the county prison in 2007 and 2008 while awaiting trial on charges they assaulted a state prison guard. The suits allege various violations of the inmates rights. Other cases that Deans firm has gotten dismissed include: Ronald Weaver: Weaver sued then district attorney David Lupas and others in 2005, alleging his rights to the court was violated because officials failed to comply with his instruction on how to bind a mail a petition to the U.S. Supreme Court. Cost to defend: $5,674. Vickie Ashton: Ashton sued the prison in 2008, alleging she was subjected to cruel and unusual punishment after prison officials transferred her from the main prison to the work release building. Cost to defend: $8,696 James DiPietrae: DiPietrae sued the prison in 2010, alleging he was subjected to cruel and unusual punishment after the prison failed to supply him an antihistamine to treat severe allergies. Cost to defend: $3,290. Anthony Tabit: Tabit, who was originally represented by an attorney who later withdrew, sued the sheriffs department in 2008 alleging he was forced to sit in an awkward position in a police car, causing an injury that led to the removal of one of his testicles. Cost to defend: $5,556. Ramon Cora: Cora sued the prison in 2010, alleging he was assaulted by a guard and denied medical care. Cost to defend: $3,700. Charles Dennis: Dennis sued the county prison, Children and Youth and several area police officers for false arrest after charges that alleged he had given his young son alcohol were dismissed. Cost to defend: $11,376.
pay legal fees associated with the defense of the suits until it reaches the deductible on the insurance policies. The exact amount the county pays each year could not be determined because defense of the lawsuits is handled by several different law firms. Bills submitted by the firms do not always identify the plaintiff, or specify if the bill is for defense of a lawsuit or other legal work. But a sampling of just seven of the cases handled by Elliott, Greenleaf & Dean, one of the law firms that represents the county, shows how expensive defending the suits can be. Since 2005, the county has paid at least $127,472 in fees to the firm for legal work performed on the seven cases. The bulk of the money -$89,170 has gone to defend four lawsuits filed Shawn Quinnones and Anthony Gray, two state prison inmates who were temporarily

Youve had a very diverse and interesting professional life. What do you attribute that to? Like everything else, as Ive moved on in my career, its sort of evolved and Ive really gotten a better handle on what my interests are. The mayoral experience was something that really changed my goals and objectives across the board. I really got interested in community and economic development at that point. You really seem to be enjoying your work at Quad3. Ive always been interested in architecture. And theres really a culture of voluntarism and giving back to the community here. And thats important to me. You see that from our CEO right down to the men and women who work in the offices the architects or the engineers. Im very comfortable here. Im enjoying this experience and Im learning a lot. What do you do to relax? I like to do construction on the side. Im always tinkering, and I like tools. I just finished remodeling the house that we now live in. I also run a little bit and try to work out when I can. I ran throughout high school and college. And my children run cross-country and track, and I very much enjoy going and watching them, and all of the kids. Weve got some great athletes here. Hobbies? Are you a collector? Mostly stuff with music. I also like unique and individual kinds of art. When I travel, instead of bringing home a goofy coffee mug or a T-shirt, I always like to pick up some art, because when I look at it, it reminds me of that trip or that journey.

ired of the seemingly endless search for old census records and microfilms? If youre a genealogist facing burnout, step back from the daily grind and join in these three upcoming events of interest to family researchers. One event is just getting under way. That is the Luzerne County Historical Societys new exhibit entitled The Polish in Luzerne County. Its at the societys museum, 69 S. Franklin St. in Wilkes-Barre, just behind the Osterhout Free Library. The exhibit traces the experiences of Polish immigrants who left their homeland and settled in Luzerne County in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the museum says. Also featured is a look at the cultural and fraternal organizations which keep the Polish heritage and connections with Poland alive today. The museum is open Tuesday-Saturday, noon to 4 p.m. Admission is free for members of the society. Otherwise it is $4 for adults and $2 for children ages 6-12. The exhibit will remain through Jan. 31. On Saturday, also courtesy of the Historical Society, you will have the opportunity to explore one of the areas most important old burial grounds the Forty Fort Cemetery, resting place for many of Wyoming Valleys earliest and most prominent citizens. The tours are at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m., with the group meeting at the cemetery entrance, River Street and Wyoming Avenue, Forty Fort. The cost is $7 for society members and $10 for non-members. The group is limited to 30 people. For reservations, call 570-823-6244, ext. 3 or go to www.luzernehistory.org for details. No occupation has been more closely associated with this area than coal mining. The next meeting of the Northeast Pennsylvania Genealogical Society will focus on that area of our history with its program entitled Was There a Miner in Your Family? Heading the program will be Donald Sanderson, a founding trustee of the new Anthracite Heritage Foundation. He will discuss the importance of mining as an industry and the need to collect mining history from individual coal miners family descendants, according to the Genealogical Society. The meeting will be at 7 p.m., Oct. 25, in the Burke Auditorium of the McGowan Building, Kings College, West Union and North River streets in Wilkes-Barre. Its open to the public. Flood Recovery: The West Pittston Library, badly damaged by flooding from Tropical Storm Lee in September, expects to reopen within the week in temporary quarters in the former Blockbuster building (near the Gerritys Market, Wyoming Avenue), according to the librarys Facebook page. The generosity of the Insalaco family made the space possible. The opening date will be announced soon. The library, which has hosted my genealogy presentations for several years, is in now dire need of money and other assistance. The flooding cost the library its computer equipment and much of its collection and furniture.

Farmington, he said he saw the best and worst of church. There weregodlypeople,butalsoinfidelity and hypocrisy. When he was11, he dutifully followed his cousin to the front of a tent revival in Sikeston, Mo., to publicly show that he accepted Jesus Christ as his savior, what evangelicals call being saved. By the time he was a young adult, he was fluent in the church language. He tithed while serving in the Vietnam War, where he was shot in the leg as a rifle platoon leader. He became the dean of admissions for William Carey University, a Christian school in Mississippi. But something huge was missing. I was a full-blooded Baptist, he said. I just wasnt a full-blooded Christian. On a business trip to Atlanta in 1974, the facade finally crashed in a flood of cold beer. He got so drunk in the clubs that he kept falling out of a taxi. Nursing a hangover, he questioned the authenticity of his faith. I woke up discovering what I had always hated as a kid hypocrisy, he said. During that same trip he met a recovering alcoholic, whom he described as a charismatic Catholic. The man had what Brand wanted. He was so full of the joy of the Lord that I found it irresistible, Brand said. He had a true, intimate relationship with Jesus. When he came back home, it was Brand, one of the church regulars, who walked to the front during service to publicly profess his faith. Today, in Brands study in Wildwood, theres a framed picture beside his desk of Jesus sitting down with a businessman. Brand made his fortune at an investment firm called Brand Asset Management Group in Chesterfield, Mo., that he started from scratch. He promised God that if

he helped Brand in his business hed help God in his. He said he nearly went bankrupt when he gave up buying and selling securitiesoncommission,insteadcharging clients fees, because he said thats what Jesus would have done. As a Christian, the conflict of interest potential is enormous, he said of financial advising. Then one day he and his wife Vicki were sitting in church when a visiting minister read a verse from a modern translation of the Bible that proclaimed: Write My answer in large clear letters on a billboard,sothatarunnercanread it and tell everyone else. They responded by founding Jesus Name Project, a nonprofit organization that promoted the billboards. As per the Lords wishes, he said, any details other than the name Jesus would lessen the impact. He wept at the initial sight of the first sign that went up near Six Flags St. Louis on Interstate 44. It looked so big and beautiful, Brand recalled. I couldnt safely see to drive. But theres disagreement on whether the signs are effective. Just about anyone who has driven across the Midwest has seen Hell is real. Other faith-based signschampionslogansthatrange from, If you die today, where will you spend eternity? to Jesus Saves. But displaying one word Jesus seems to create more noise.
These billboards show how powerful brand promotions have become to every aspect of American life, Kathryn Lofton, an assistant professor of American and religious studies at Yale, wrote in an email. There are other monuments in the mix. Like giant crosses, small crosses and groups of crosses. Where people have gotten used to seeing crosses, they are a little less used to seeing great big names of Jesus, said Thomas J. Davis, a professor at the Center for the Study of Religion and American Culture at Indiana University. There is a specificity there now. Free-thinking groups have responded with their own campaigns, for instance in Indianapolis where there have been billboards that say: You dont need God to hope, to care, to love, to live. Center for Inquiry president Ronald Lindsay said in an email that Jesus billboards will resonate only with those who already believe that Jesus is the simple, uncomplicated answer to everything. Though catchy, Davis said, peoplewillbecomeaccustomedtothe Jesussignsandwontpaymuchattention to them anymore, like crosses on churches. It will become part of the landscape, he said.

favorite of all-time is probably The Twilight Zone. Its timeless. Favorite book? The Great Gatsby. Favorite quote? Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed people can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has. Margaret Mead. Defining professional moment? It happened during my time as mayor, and unbelievably, its not the ribbon-cutting of the new library that we built, or any of the things we built. It was probably the most challenging time that I had, and that was the year on the Fourth of July when we had the accident with the fireworks. Because what I realized is that its easy to be a leader when youre cutting ribbons and things are going the right

dlees are one of my favorite bands. Peter Gabriel, James McMurtry, Clapton, Mellencamp, Springsteen ... I really like great songwriters. I really like to look at lyrics. Follow sports? Im a Notre Dame and Penn State fan, oddly enough. Im not a huge baseball fan, but I like the aura and history of the Yankees. And Ive been a Miami Dolphins fan since 1969. Favorite city? Next to Pittston? I like San Fransisco, because of the art and architecture. And I love New Orleans. Good food and good art, and I try to get to the jazz festival whenever I can. Favorite food?

way, but its not so easy when things dont go the right way, and youre looking at a couple of people that were injured, and you planned for all of this time to have something that started out as a great event. You had this sort of polarity of emotions: it starts out really great, weve got an incredible crowd, and then boom two or three minutes before the finale, we had a serious accident. I spent about 24 straight hours dealing with the situation, and for the first time I guess I believed, myself, that I could be a leader, and felt like I led. When things are difficult, I always look back on that moment.

Late goal by Keith Aucoin on the power play lifts Hershey to victory.

OPINION
HERSHEY
ARLINGTON, Texas Justin Verlander and the Detroit Tigers were delayed by rain in the opener of a playoff series again twice. Game 1 of the AL championship series between the Tigers and Texas Rangers was stopped by rain for 41 minutes in the top of the fifth inning on Saturday night. Then, 13 minutes after play resumed, umpires halted the game for the second time. Detroit scored twice after the resumption to close to 3-2, and the Tigers had the bases loaded with two outs in the fifth when play was halted again. Verlander had thrown one inning and 25 pitches in the division series opener at Yankee Stadium on Sept. 30 when that game was suspended. Under a rules change adopted two years ago, postseason games are suspended when called instead of being cut short or wiped out. Verlander came back and started Game 3, which he won, and threw 82 pitches against the Rangers before the delay. After the fourth inning at Rangers Ballpark, the groundskeeper went out and spoke with plate umpire Tim

WILKES-BARRE TWP. The WilkesBarre/Scranton Penguins made one fatal mistake during their season opener Saturday against the Hershey Bears. They gave Keith Aucoin an eternity to shoot the puck. With the game tied 2-2 and the Bears on a power play early in the third period, Ryan Potulny dished a pass to Aucoin, who was alone in the right faceoff circle. Aucoin held the puck and patiently

Raiders owner Davis, 82, dies
OAKLAND, Calif. Al Davis was a rebel with a cause Just win, baby he exhorted his beloved Oakland Raiders. And as the NFL well knows, he was also a rebel with a subpoena. Davis, who bucked league authority time and again and won three Super Bowl titles during his half-century in professional football, died Saturday. He was 82. The Hall of Famer died at his home in Oakland, the team said.

Penn State defensive tackle Devon Still, right, sacks Iowa quarterback James Vanderberg during the fourth quarter Saturday in State College. Penn State won 13-3.
STATE COLLEGE -- The fourth quarter began, and the Iowa boogeyman was still breathing. Penn State led by just three points. The defense dropped a potential pick-six. The offense threw an interception in the end zone. Saturday felt exactly like so many Iowa wins in the series in the past decade. I said, Geez, I hope this isnt here we go again, defensive coordinator Tom Bradley said. I thought it could be like that, said senior captain Drew Astorino, who couldnt hold onto that interception. I thought I lost the game. But those old fears never came. Instead, Bradley cranked up the pressure as much as he has in the past decade and a dominant Nittany Lions defense suffocated the Hawkeyes in a 13-3 win at Beaver Stadium. The defense, sometimes criticized for being too passive, too vanilla in its worst moments, went over the top. With the game on the line and a 6-3 lead in the fourth quarter, the Lions blitzed. And blitzed.

THE BALL ROCKETED off the bat as thousands of sullen fans suddenly leaped to their feet, watching gleefully as their renewed hopes soared high and deep toward the right field wall. And thats where the dreams of the Phillies and Yankees died. They wont meet in the World Series this year, the way did in 2009. Mainly because baseballs two best teams were both beaten by a game of inches. Another fraction of an inch of contact may have put the Phillies in the National League championship series which begins today. But Phillies outfielder Raul Ibanez said he knew he barely missed sending his fourth-inning fly over the fence from the moment he hit it Friday. I thought I hit it too high, Ibanez said. Still, he elevated the spirits of the Phillies and their second-largest Citizens Bank Park crowd of 50,960 fans if only for a fleeting second. Because in a decisive National League division series game the Phillies lost 1-0 to St. Louis pitcher Chris Carpenters three-hit shutout, one swing almost changed the outcome. Instead, the Phillies stranded runners on first and third when Lance Berkman tracked down the blow by Ibanez just in front of the right field wall. I hit it well enough where if it was a little more on a line to get it up out of here, Ibanez said. But I didnt. That turned out to be Philadelphias only real scoring opportunity against Carpenter, who set down 15 of the last 17 Phillies batters starting with the shot by Ibanez that came up just short. Ibanez skies the ball up, you think its got a chance, Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. It wasnt far enough. A drive not long enough Neither was Derek Jeters drive against Detroit. But the Yankee captain electrified the largest crowd in the threeyear history of new Yankee Stadium with optimism. Doesnt he always? When Jeter jumped on a twostrike fastball from Tigers reliever Joaquin Benoit in the eighth inning of New Yorks 3-2 defeat Thursday, he was hoping to put the Yankees over the top. A lot of times, its a matter of a foot here or a foot there, Yankees manager Joe Girardi said, and its the difference in the game. This situation could have been the difference in the series. What happened in New York was no different than what happened in Philadelphia. Jeters opposite-field blast with a runner on first base was pulled in by Tigers right fielder Don Kelly who caught the ball with his back against the wall. I thought it might have a chance, Jeter said. I just got it too high. It dropped the emotions of both teams to new lows. The Phillies were picked to win the World Series, after setting a franchise record by posting a baseball-best 102-60 record during the regular season. The Yankees believed theyd win their 28th world championship after leading the American League with a 97-65 mark. Baseball, sometimes, is cruel, Yankees first baseman Mark Teixeira said. The game never plays favorites. It toyed with the emotions of two favored teams, raising their anticipation to new heights with majestic flights toward glory. Like their chances of advancing, both came up just short.

Theyll find out today, when the two-day tourney concludes with a 10 a.m. start at Glenmaura. Saturdays 68 was good for a one-stroke lead over Eric Williams and Irv Williams. Davis hit an opening-round low of 32 and Brown finished the first day with a 36. From the fifth through eighth hole, they used three birdies and a couple of pars to get to 3-under.

McGloin pilots offense during games key moments

By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com
STATE COLLEGE -- The coaches wont acknowledge it. Not just yet. But Penn State may have taken a big step to solving its quarterback quandary on Saturday In a three-point game, it was Matt McGloin leading the offense for all but one drive in the second half. Even more telling, perhaps, was what happened after McGloin threw his first interception of the season -- in the end zone, no less -- at the end of the third quarter. Penn States defense came up with a turnover of its own on the ensuing drive and McGloin went right back out there, capping off the drive with a 2-yard touchdown pass that sealed things up for the Nittany Lions. I didnt expect to come back off the field and be replaced by Rob Bolden, McGloin said. We were moving the ball very well. The interception -- it happens. What are you gonna do? The guy made a great play. I was real proud of the way the offense responded after that and pushed the ball right down the field. The offense again seemed to respond to McGloin, who had taken the Lions out from their 4-yard line in the third quarter. McGloin and the Lions drove

NOTEBOOK
90 yards to the Iowa 6, only to see the Hawkeyes Micah Hyde read a fade to Derek Moye in the back corner of the end zone, timing his jump perfectly to come up with the pick. But while the Penn State coaches had switched quarterbacks following a turnover several times already this season, they kept McGloin in to lead the offense. Though Penn State ran the ball on 10 straight plays on that ensuing drive before McGloins touchdown pass, teammates lauded McGloin after the game for his leadership in the huddle. Youve got to keep your emotions in check, obviously, McGloin said. (The Hawkeyes) were getting tired as the game went on. You could just tell by their body language. We were coming up to get set and I was trying to push the pace a little bit and get guys going. McGloin finished 12-of-19 passing for 133 yards. Bolden, who started for the sixth straight game, was just 3-for-7 for 31 yards while adding 13 yards on the ground. Despite the disparity in playing time between the two, Joe Paterno wasnt willing to say anything had changed with the
Bradley said after the game that he expected Lynn to be able to return next week against Purdue. Tailback Brandon Beachum also missed a second straight game with a foot injury. Wideout Curtis Drake (leg) also did not play. Senior Stephfon Green made his 2011 debut after being suspended twice since the summer. The tailback touched the ball once, losing 4 yards on a screen pass. Split duty once again For the third straight week, Paterno spent the first half on the sideline before adjourning to the coaches booth for the second half. Paterno, who still isnt 100 percent after injuring his hip in August in a collision with a player in practice, said he felt pain when he had to get out of the way of a play in the first half. They almost ran over me once, Paterno said. I came out and I made a couple quick moves to get out of the way. I just dont want to be in the way. I dont want those kids looking around to see where I am. But I was hurting. Im hurting more now than I have in a week, and thats because I made a stupid move. Ill be all right tonight.

quarterback rotation. I dont know, Paterno said. Well have to look at that. Infirmary report Penn State looked to come out of the game relatively unscathed. One slight surprise was that junior cornerback Stephon Morris did not play after injuring his ankle last week at Indiana. With DAnton Lynn out for a
second straight game as he continues to undergo concussion tests, the Lions went with true freshman Adrian Amos starting opposite Chaz Powell. He played a heck of a football game. He played the whole game, defensive coordinator Tom Bradley said. Steph, his ankle, he hadnt practiced all week. Wasnt taking a chance. Amos did an outstanding job today.
FIRST QUARTER PSU -- Anthony Fera 20-yard field goal, 1:36. Drive: 18 plays, 88 yards, 8:16. Comment: Plenty of good fortune leads to a long drive but only three points for the Nittany Lions. Rob Bolden was nearly intercepted twice and had a third pass take a crazy bounce off of a foot into the air where it was caught by tight end Andrew Szczerba. Then on fourth-and-4 from the Iowa 17, the entire stadium was puzzled when benched kicker Evan Lewis came out for a 34-yard try. While everyone was trying to figure it out, the snap went directly to Lewis, a former all-state athlete at Gettysburg High School, who sprinted up the middle through traffic to pick up the first down.The gamble only led to a field goal, however, as Boldens third-down scramble was stopped at the 3. PENN STATE 3, IOWA 0. SECOND QUARTER UI -- Mike Meyer 23-yard field goal, 10:51. Drive: 12 plays, 72 yards, 5:45. Comment: Now its the Hawkeyes turn to cap off a long, plodding drive with a breakdown in the red zone. A false start penalty turns a thirdand-3 to a third-and-8, and it costs Iowa as Drew Astorino makes a good play to bring down Marvin McNutt out in the left flat after a gain of just 4 to bring on the kicking team. PSU 3, UI 3. PSU -- Fera 20-yard field goal, 4:59. Drive: 12 plays, 81 yards, 5:41. Comment: Matt McGloin takes over at quarterback as the Lions second drive actually comes in the second quarter. McGloin connect on two tough sideline passes to Justin Brown and then heaves one up to Derek Moye with three Iowa defenders in the vicinity, only to have the big senior go up and bring it down for a big gain. Penn State once again takes it down to the Iowa 3, and on third down McGloin rolls left and considers making a break for the end zone but pulls it down and fires incomplete, trying to fit a tight throw in there to Szczerba. Dueling field goals it is. PSU 6 UI 3. FOURTH QUARTER PSU -- Kevin Haplea 2-yard pass from Matt McGloin (Fera kick), 8:08. Drive: 11 plays, 49 yards, 6:04. Penn States defense comes up with yet another enormous fourth-quarter play. Emerging linebacker Gerald Hodges demolishes James Vandenberg, sending the quarterback and the ball flying toward the Iowa sideline. In a frantic pile-up its senior Nate Stupar who escapes with the ball at the Hawkeyes 49. From there, Penn State ran straight at a worn-down Iowa defense, running it 10 straight times down to the Iowa 2-yard line -- 11 if you count a Silas Redd touchdown run that was called back on two separate holding penalties. On the final play, Penn State went play-action, easily beating a defense that sold out against the run. Haplea was wide open in the back of the end zone for his first career touchdown. One demon down. PSU 13, UI 3. PLAY OF THE GAME The beauty of Gerald Hodges huge sack and forced fumble in the fourth was that defensive coordinator Tom Bradley had Iowa completely fooled. Calling more blitzes than he has in years, the man they call Scrap emptied his playbook, calling every blitz he had in his repertoire. On this one, the Hawkeyes expected the pressure to come from Nate Stupar on the strong side, only for Hodges to fly around the corner from the weak side and crush James Vandenberg to jar the ball loose. Credit Stupar for coming up with the ball and setting up the clinching score.
BLITZ
Continued from Page 1C
How much did we go after them? I think I called every one we got in our repertoire for the game, Bradley said. Called em a number of times. We were getting after it pretty good. Weve never gone that much (blitzing) in a long time. Iowa, which had won eight of the last 10 and three straight against Penn State, wasnt expecting it. The sudden aggressiveness caught the Hawkeyes off guard, as the Lions (5-1, 2-0 Big Ten) came up with four sacks and three turnovers in the final frame -- none bigger than the one that came at the start of the fourth quarter. On a third-and-7 at the Penn State 45, strong-side linebacker Nate Stupar showed blitz. But it was the weak-side man, Gerald Hodges, who came instead. The confused pass protectors never picked him up, and Hodges blindsided quarterback James Vandenberg for a sack, jarring the ball loose. There wasnt a blitz that we have in there that (Bradley) didnt call, Hodges said. He mightve even made up some at halftime. OK, it certainly seemed like the Lions blitzed much more than usual. How much more? Oh, way more, Hodges said. Ten times more. We never blitzed that much. Ive never even seen it watching Penn State football before I came here. It was Stupar who came up with the loose ball at the Iowa 49, and the Lions finally delivered a knockout blow to the Hawkeyes. Resisting the urge to take a shot deep right after the turnover, Penn State called 10 straight run plays right at a worn-down Iowa front seven, taking it down to the Hawkeyes 2-yard line. The Lions had stalled twice inside the 5 in the first half, settling for two Anthony Fera 20-yard field goals. This time, Penn State went play-action. It worked to perfection as Matt McGloin took a few steps to his right after faking the handoff and hit wide-open tight end Kevin Haplea for the games only touchdown. Now up 13-3 with 8:08 to play, Penn State kept coming. Malcom Willis and Nick Sukay came up with interceptions to end Iowas next two drives. On the Hawkeyes last chance, the Lions came up with three straight sacks sandwiched around a procedure penalty. Iowas final play was a fourthand-39 from its 2. I think that Coach Bradley really wanted it this week, senior defensive tackle Devon Still said. He just went full tilt today. He

sent as many blitzes as he could. Still estimated the Lions blitzed on at least 30 percent of the plays throughout the game, with that number ramping up dramatically after halftime. Stupar, in his fifth year with the program, said he couldnt remember the defense ever being so aggressive. No. But we have the athletic ability, the persistence, the determination to get to the quarter-
back, Stupar said. Im glad to see Scrap have that faith in us to do our job. What could have been another demoralizing loss to Iowa instead became a statement for the Lions. We are dominant, Still said of the defense. We put our minds to it that no teams gonna be able to move the ball on us.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL ROUNDUP
NOTRE DAME FOOTBALL
No. 3 Oklahoma made a case to reclaim that top ranking with a Red River Rivalry rout. Then No. 1 LSU showed that it was, indeed, a worthy No. 1. The Sooners smoked No. 11 Texas 55-17, ripping up their heated Big 12 rivals by Landry Jones and a defense that scored three touchdowns. Texas came to the State Fair in Dallas undefeated but not yet tested by a ranked team. The Longhorns, with their inexperienced quarterback combination of David Ash and Case McCoy, couldnt up with Jones and his talented receivers. All-American Ryan Broyles had 9 catches for 122 yards. In Baton Rouge, La., LSU had little trouble with a Florida offense playing with a freshman quarterback who had never taken a snap in a college game. Jacoby Brissett, playing because both John Brantley and Jeff Driskel were hurt, couldnt muster any offense against the Tigers. It was the second straight week Florida was pounded by AP PHOTO an SEC West heavweight. The Florida running back Mike Gillislee is tackled by LSUs Stefoin Francois (23) and Eric Reid (1) durGators were trounced by Alabaing Saturdays game in Baton Rouge, La. ma 38-10 last week. No. 1 LSU 41, No. 17 Florida 11 BATON ROUGE, La. Spencer Ware rushed for 109 yards and two scores and each of LSUs quarterbacks passed for touchdowns. Jarrett Lee gave the Tigers (6-0, 3-0 SEC) the lead for good on their second offensive play, hitting Rueben Randle deep over the middle for a 46-yard touchdown. Jordan Jefferson used a jump pass to Mitch Joseph for another score. No. 2 Alabama 34, Vanderbilt 0 TUSCALOOSA, Ala. AJ McCarron passed for careerhighs of 237 yards and four touchdowns for Alabama. Trent Richardson rushed for 107 yards and a touchdown in his fifth straight 100-yard effort for the Crimson Tide (6-0, 3-0 Southeastern Conference). The Commodores (3-2, 1-2) trailed by only seven points until the final minute of the opening half, then Alabama took over with four straight touchdown drives. No. 3 Oklahoma 55, No. 11 Texas 17 DALLAS Landry Jones threw for 367 yards a three touchdowns, Dominique Whaley ran 64 yards for another touchdown and the Oklahoma defense scored three more touchdowns. Having slipped from first to second to third over successive weeks, Oklahoma (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) stomped its top rival almost as easily as it did lowly Ball State the previous week. The Sooners wound up with their most lopsided win in this series since 2003, when they won by a series-record 52 points. No. 7 Stanford 48, Colorado 7 STANFORD, Calif. Andrew Luck threw for a seasonhigh 370 yards and three touchdowns, and Stanford stayed perfect. With former Stanford standouts Tiger Woods and John Elway joining the crush of NFL scouts on the sidelines, Luck completed 26 of 33 passes with a rare interception to extend the nations longest winning streak to 13 games. No. 8 Clemson 36, Boston College 14 CLEMSON, S.C. Tajh Boyd threw for a touchdown and ran for another before leaving with a hip injury. The severity of Boyds injury was unknown. He came in leading the Atlantic Coast Conference in total offense and has been the catalyst for the Tigers first 6-0 start in 11 years. No. 6 Oklahoma State 70, Kansas 28 STILLWATER, Okla. Brandon Weeden threw for 288 yards and five touchdowns playing less than a half and Oklahoma State had its highest scoring game since 1970. Jamie Blatnick recovered a fumble and leaped to tip an interception to himself for two of the Cowboys four first-half takeaways, and Oklahoma State (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) scored touchdowns on all eight of its possessions before halftime against the nations worst defense. No. 10 Arkansas 38, Auburn 14 FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. Tyler Wilson threw for 262 yards, completing 19 straight passes at one point for Arkansas. Wilson, who set a school record with 510 passing yards in a win over Texas A&M last week, ended the first half against the Tigers by completing 18 straight passes. That included a 5-yard touchdown pass to Jarius Wright in the second quarter that gave the Razorbacks (5-1, 1-1 Southeastern Conference) their first lead at 21-14. holding off the Terrapins fourth-quarter comeback. No. 16 West Virginia 43, Connecticut 16 MORGANTOWN, W.Va. Geno Smith threw for 450 yards and four touchdowns and West Virginia navigated through another slow start to win its Big East opener. West Virginia (5-1, 1-0) struggled to a 10-9 halftime lead before erupting for 23 points in a 7:35 span of the third quarter to take control. No. 18 South Carolina 54, Kentucky 3 COLUMBIA, S.C. New starting quarterback Connor Shaw threw for 311 yards and four touchdowns for South Carolina. Shaw, a sophomore who took over as starter this week from fifth-year senior Stephen Garcia, completed 26 of 39 passes and had no interceptions. No. 20 Kansas State 24, Missouri 17 MANHATTAN, Kan. Collin Klein ran for three touchdowns and the Wildcats, who nearly blew a big second-half lead, improved to 5-0 for the first time since 2000. No. 21 Virginia Tech 38, Miami 35 BLACKSBURG, Va. Logan Thomas ran 19 yards for a touchdown with 56 seconds to play, capping a wild fourth quarter for Virginia Tech. The Hokies (5-1, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference) rescued their chances of contending in the Coastal Division with the dramatic rally, and may have killed the hopes for Miami (2-3, 0-2). Osweiler had the third 300yard game of his career to lead the Sun Devils (5-1, 3-0 Pac-12). Wake Forest 35, No. 23 Florida State 30 WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. Tanner Price threw three touchdown passes, Josh Harris rushed for 136 yards and Wake Forest beat Florida State. Price was 21 of 35 for 233 yards with touchdowns covering 22 yards to Chris Givens, 2 yards to Tommy Bohanon and 8 yards to Terence Davis to give the Demon Deacons (4-1, 3-0) their best start to ACC play in school history. No. 25 Baylor 49, Iowa State 26 WACO, Texas (AP) Robert Griffin ran for a season-high 107 yards and Terrance Ganaway rushed for a career-high 200 yards for Baylor. Tevin Elliott returned a fumble 86 yards for a touchdown for the Bears (4-1, 1-1 Big 12), who bounced back from a 36-35 loss last weekend to No. 20 Kansas State. No. 25 Baylor 49, Iowa State 26 WACO, Texas Robert Griffin ran for a season-high 107 yards and Terrance Ganaway rushed for a career-high 200 yards for Baylor.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. Tommy Rees threw four TD passes in the first half, Notre Dame built a big early lead and the Irish rolled to their fourth straight victory Saturday, routing Air Force 5933. It marked the most combined points ever for a game at Notre Dame Stadium. And the 59 points were the most by Notre Dame since beating Rutgers 62-0 in 1996 in Lou Holtzs final home game as Irish coach. The two teams combined for 1,125 yards total offense 565 by Air Force and 560 by Notre Dame. Reess four TD passes went to four different receivers and he completed 19 of 25 for 208 yards in the first half. He finished 23 of 32 for 261 yards. Notre Dame (4-2) scored on all six of its first-half possessions and led 42-16 at the intermission. Air Force tried everything a no-huddle and option offense that ran up big yards, an onside kick the Falcons didnt recover, a fake punt that resulted in a 19yard gain. Air Force finished the first half with 311 yards and was 5-for-5 on fourth down conversions in the game. But the Falcons (3-2) were simply no match physically for the Irish, especially Notre Dames big offensive front that allowed Rees ample time to find wide open receivers and running backs to dance through huge holes. And two turnovers, a fumble by Asher Clark on Air Forces first play from scrimmage and an interception, helped send the Irish onto TD drives. The Irish also showed a new wrinkle and a new weapon in coach Brian Kellys spread of-
fense when sophomore Andrew Hendrix was inserted as a change-of-pace quarterback in place of Rees. Hendrix completed all four of his passes and broke off a long run to the 2 in the fourth quarter, giving a glimpse perhaps of the Irishs future. Hendrix finished with six carries for 111 yards. Jonas Gray ran for two Notre Dame touchdowns. Tim Jeffersons 6-yard TD pass to Ty MacArthur, set up after punter David Baskas 19-yard run and another 30-yard jaunt by Mike DeWitt, got Air Force within 35-16 in the second quarter. But just as they did all day, the Irish played pitch-and-catch and went right down the field for another score. This time it was Theo Riddick who finished with eight receptions catching a pass over the middle as Rees was hit. Riddick sailed through the defense on a 24-yard play that made it 42-16. Notre Dame scored on its first drive and kept going. Michael Floyd leaped high over Air Forces Bobby Watkins III to grab a pass from Rees at the front pylon of the end zone. Initially ruled a touchdown, the play was reviewed and even though replays showed that Floyds left foot appeared on the line the score was upheld. The 34-yard TD pass capped an 81-yard drive, one that took under three minutes and also included a Rees-to-Riddick hookup of 24 yards. Moments later, on the Falcons first scrimmage play, Clark broke off a 29-yard run but fumbled at the end of it and Robert Blanton recovered for Notre Dame. A 20-yard run by Gray set up a 5-yard TD pass from Rees to Tyler Eifert. After a field goal by Air Forces Parker Herrington, the Irish got a 40-yard kickoff return by George Atkinsson III and moved in for another TD in four plays.

Crusaders clamp down in win

Defense corrals Stroudsburg quarterback Robbie Bennie on late fourth down run.
By JOHN ERZAR jerzar@timesleader.com
WILKES-BARRE Stroudsburg quarterback Robbie Bennie torched Coughlin at times Saturday night, but not when he needed to the most. Coughlin wrapped up the elusive senior on a fourth-and-6 with less than two minutes to play and also wrapped up a 24-21 victory in a non-conference football game. He is an outstanding player, Coughlin coach Ciro Cinti said. We remember him from when he played in biddy football. Some of our kids played against him years ago (when he played with) the Monroe Saints. He gave us fits last year.
Bennie did it again as he rushed 21 times for 210 yards. He needed four more to keep Stroudsburgs chances for victory going. Instead, linebacker Zac Evans got the first hit on Bennie on the fourth-down play, staggering him. Defensive lineman Brad Emerick finished him off. Thats a huge win because its a lot of (state) points, Cinti said. Its 160 points and puts us right back where we want to be. The victory will move Coughlin (3-3) from seventh to fourth in the District 2 Class 3A race for four playoff spots. Stroudsburg (4-2) took a hit in its run for a D2/4-11 Class 4A berth. The Crusaders finished off the Mounties with a couple runs by tailback Joe Parsnik. Parsnik finished with 173 yards on 22 rushes and two touchdowns. The biggest offensive play,

LEHMAN TWP. Lake-Lehman made ball control a key component of its game plan for Saturdays matchup against Northwest. Then the Black Knights went out and executed that game plan to perfection, running the games first 19 plays, chewing eight minutes off the clock, and holding a two touchdown lead before the Rangers got the ball. Lake-Lehman dominated the first half, cruising to a 35-7 victory over Northwest. They are a grinding team and our No. 1 goal was to control the clock, Lake-Lehman coach Jerry Gilsky said. We had the ball for 90 percent of the first quarter, the first half. We put a new scheme in and the kids handled it well. The Black Knights scored the games first 28 points and had 14 first downs to Northwests two in the first half. Lake-Lehmans offense rolled up 333 yards in the first half, and its defense limited the Rangers to 31 yards. This was a real big game for us. We want to get into the playoffs, and we needed this, said senior Nick Shelley, who ran for 99 yards and two scores. They couldnt stop us. Once we distributed the ball like we did, they didnt know where the ball was

and they couldnt stop it. Northwests defense struggled with the misdirection of the Lake-Lehman ground game, which averaged 7.4 yards per carry. Twelve plays run by LakeLehman in the first half gained at least 13 yards. Overall, the Black Knights faced a lot of short-yardage situations, converting 6-of-11 third downs, and an impressive 4-of-4 fourth downs. You put your offensive line at a disadvantage when you go to one guy all the time, Gilsky said. We were second in the league in rushing and the offensive line didnt get much credit. Thats the way we were last year (distributing the ball), and thats the way well be the rest of the year. Shelley might have had the biggest game of all the backs, Penn State recruit from scoring. Eight plays later, Valley West faced a fourth-and-12 from the Dallas 24. Lewis dropped back, evaded blitzing linebacker Jim Roccograndi and launched the ball into a group of three receivers and three defenders. Wideout Lucky Williams emerged with a TD catch, moving the Spartans within 28-27 with 1:04 to play. Then came the decision to go for a two-point try instead of an extra point. Lewis rolled right, with the option to run or throw. With the latter unavailable, he made a dash for the pylon, but Rogers wrapped him up around the shins and several other Mountaineers jumped aboard. My job was to contain and I knew I just had to do my job and beat the guy blocking me to the outside, Rogers said. That happened and thats how we met right there.
scoring on a 19-yard run around the right side and a 3-yard plunge in a four minute span of the second quarter the last touchdown making it 28-0. My sophomore year, we just got crunched by them, Shelley said. Now its our turn. The last two years (21-12 in 2010) weve beaten them and it feels good. Dustin Jones had three bruising carries and a 19-yard reception on the games first drive, which ended on his 2-yard touchdown run. Junior Brent Hizny recovered an onside kick after the score, and quarterback Jared Novitski ran a bootleg to the right for a 19-yard touchdown and a 14-0 lead. In all, four Lake-Lehman runners gained at least 50 years, paced by Novitskis 107. Eight rushers had a carry of at least 7 yards. Valley West tried an onside kick, but touched the ball before it went 10 yards and Dallas ran out the clock. I admire what he did, Dallas coach Ted Jackson said of Valley Wests decision to go for two. We did the same thing down at Berwick (in 2009) and lost. Its a heartbreaking way to lose, but with an athlete like that he certainly made the right decision. The rally attempt seemed unlikely after Dallas went up 28-14 on Roccograndis 11-yard touchdown run with 7:49 remaining. Roccograndi finished with 109 yards on 19 carries, with only one rush going for negative yardage. Theyre huge up front, said Dallas center F.J. Costantino, who helped open holes for Roccograndis fifth 100-yard game of the season. The coaches stressed we had to fire off the ball and attack them early. They have big guys up

WILKES-BARRE If it wanted to be a playoff contender, Nanticoke needed a victory Saturday at Wilkes-Barre Memorial Stadium. Trailing by six at halftime to a motivated Holy Redeemer squad, the Trojans rallied to win a shootout over the Royals 52-36. The Royals (0-6) controlled much of the first half over the Trojans (2-3) as sophomore quarterback Jimmy Strickland connected with senior quarterback David Gawlas for a 29-yard touchdown pass on Redeemers first possession after a blocked punt. Gawlas ran for two touchdowns, to put Redeemer up 22-16 going into halftime. He accounted for 33 yards on 13 carries and three touchdowns, and two receptions for 38 yards and one touchdown. As a passer, Gawlas was 4-for-9 for 129 yards and one interception being picked off by Nanticoke senior Jeff Jezewski. Strickland went 12-of-19 passing for 206 yards with three touchdowns and two interceptions. The Trojans were playing with heavy hearts after the passing of one of their assistant coaches, Hank Trauski, on Saturday. They would not back down as they came out running in the second half, scoring two touchdowns in the third quarter behind senior running back Brian Maslowski, who had touchdown runs of 48 and 25. Overall Maslowski had 20 carries for 197 yards and four touchdowns. It was all for coach Hank, said Maslowski. We played for him today. Adding to the lead, senior Zak Matulewski, in his first start at quarterback, hooked up with senior wide receiver Jeff Jezewski for a 67-yard touchdown pass to go up 44-22. In the fourth quarter, the Royals almost staged a comeback. Behind two touchdown receptions, by junior wide receiver Thomas Cosgrove, one of which was for 58 yards, The Royals found themselves down 44-36 with 6:02 left in the game. Nanticoke managed to hang on, and put the game away with a 12-yard touchdown run by Maslowski with 1:20 left to play. We played a great effort, but our kids were playing with heavy hearts, said Nanticoke head coach Ron Bruza. They were motivated, but at the same time they were still playing with heavy hearts with (Trauski) on their minds. We said Just keep plugging away and good things will happen. The Royals have lost 17 straight games dating back to the end of the 2009 season, but first year head coach Joe Ostrowski is optimistic about his younger players.

Busch looking to Kansas Speedway for Chase push

The championship season did not start well for the driver, who was 26th at Chicago.
KANSAS CITY, Kan. Kyle Busch stood outside his hauler in the infield at Kansas Speedway this week, wearing shades on an overcast day. Busch looked comfortable, breezily answering questions, even though he acknowledges the stress that weighs on him. This is supposed to be the year he finally wins a Cup title. Hes married now and has mellowed slightly, showing more maturity on and off the track. Hes won four more times to push his career total to 30, and started the Chase as the top seed. But Busch has gotten off to a
mediocre start through three races coming into Kansas, where his season has gone bust his last few title runs. Hes eighth entering Sundays race in the tightly bunched Chase standings, 15 points off co-leaders Kevin Harvick and Carl Edwards. Theres 43 guys out here every week that if they dont win, they didnt meet the potential they wanted to, Busch said before qualifying third for Sundays race. Theres been times we won races and we didnt feel like we reached everything we needed to reach, Busch said. Its high pressure, its high stakes. Theres a lot on the line and this is a performance business, and youve certainly got to make the most of it. Were trying every week. It just hasnt been quite good enough.
The 26-year-old Busch started the Chase with a 26th-place run at Chicago and finished 11th at New Hampshire before a sixthplace run last weekend at Dover restored some confidence. He had hoped to get off to a better start, knowing Kansas Speedway is rarely kind to him. Busch came to the 1 1/2-mile tri-oval just 10 points out of the Chase lead in 2007, his final year with Hendrick Motorsports, when he got tangled up with Dale Earnhardt Jr. Last year, Busch was sitting third in the standings when he spun David Reutimann early in the race. Busch called it unintentional contact, but it didnt sit well with Reutimann. He got payback with 122 laps left when
Busch was running seventh, hitting the outside of his car and forcing him into the wall. Busch finished 21st in the race and dropped all the way to seventh in the standings. In June, a simmering feud between Busch and Richard Childress Racing really ignited. Busch had bumped into Childress driver Joey Coulter on a cool-down lap after the Trucks race. The 65-year-old Childress
showed his displeasure by assaulting Busch, earning a $150,000 fine from NASCAR. It added another reason for Busch to dislike coming to Kansas. When its one of your least favorite racetracks, its not beneficial to come here twice, he said. Well work hard and take what we can get out of this weekend. We know its going to be a hard one for us, and were really going
to have to dig in. Busch got off to a good start with a solid qualifying effort Friday. Hell roll off alongside Matt Kenseth, who is just ahead of him in seventh in the Chase, with twotime Kansas winner Greg Biffle and Chase co-leader Edwards on the front row. Chase co-leader Harvick struggled on a windy Friday and qualified 14th in the 43-car field.

Many competitors complained after a summer of rainy weather left the course soggy and soft although they were quick to credit Glenmauras grounds crew for making it playable at all. It played pretty tough, Brown said, noting the course seemed pretty wet. And heavy rains last month, which extended into Monday, also soaked the preparation plans of tournament participants. Just being wet and not being able to golf the last couple weeks kind of made the situation more difficult, said Mario Costa, who joined his partner John Tolerico in a grouping with Davis and Brown. Obviously didnt affect those guys. Oh, but it did. Davis said an afternoon of sunshine kept the course in a constant flux throughout the day. You could see a difference from the first hole to the 18th, Davis said. The ground started Art Brunn Jr. of Hanover Twp. tees up his ball on hole No. 4 durhardening later in the day. It was ing The Invitational at Glenmaura National Golf Club. still soft, though. That only made Brown and Davis toughen up. They turned the opening round into a friendly rivalry with Costa and Tolerico who play a lot of golf with Brown. There are definitely some situations where you find yourself competing with the guys youre with, Davis said. You want to make sure you dont fall too far behind them. That wasnt a problem for Davis and Brown. Their group mates finished with a score of 80 one of the highest during the fields first day. Anytime you tee it up with these guys, theyre the team to beat, Costa said. Its nice to play in a group with them. You try to elevate your game. It wasnt our day today. Costa and Tolerico did get to feel like winners on one hole, beating Brown and Davis on the 13th. We punished them on that hole, Costa laughed. The rest of the time, he admitted, he could barely look at the shooting comparisons. I try not to watch them, Costa said. I cant do what they do.

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. Now that Michael Vick has suggested the Dream Team tag no longer applies for the underachieving Eagles, Bills receiver Stevie Johnson believes a change in perception might also be in order in Buffalo. I cant say were no-names, Johnson said, preferring instead the curiously coined moniker of Goon Squad, which Bills receivers have adopted. Were just guys that nobody really wanted. Until now, of course. This Buffalo team of Mis-Fitz as some also have begun to call them in tribute to quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick is off to a surprising 3-1 start and will host the Eagles (1-3) today. And the Bills are in no mood to rest on their ac-
complishments one month into the season, particularly after a discouraging 23-20 loss at Cincinnati. We took a step back, receiver David Nelson said. This is an opportunity for us to prove who we say we are. Who, then, might these Eagles be? All the high-priced, headline-grabbing splashes Philadelphia made this offseason in adding cornerbacks Nnamdi Asomugha and Dominique RodgersCromartie, defensive end Jason Babin and backup quarterback Vince Young have translated into a heap of disappointment. Having blown three consecutive second-half leads, Philadelphias off to its worst start and enduring its longest losing streak since 2007. So Vick asked this week to put an end to Dream Team references. That term doesnt ring true any more, the quarterback said. Were just like any other football team now. Worse, perhaps. The Eagles havent come close to matching their high expectations, while the Bills have so far defied their perennially low ones. This meeting has
the potential to start separating the contenders from pretenders. Its one of those games where a lot of questions will be answered, Bills running back Fred Jackson said. We know what were capable of, but we know weve got a tough UP NEXT team coming in here. EAGLES Troubled as the Eaat BILLS gles might be, they still TV: 1 p.m., have the makings of a WOLF-56 dangerous opponent. OPENING Vick, when healthy LINE: Eagles and even sometimes by 3 LAST MEETwhen not, has led an ofING: Eagles fense averaging nearly beat Bills 17-9, 435 yards and 25 points Dec. 30, 2007 a game.

And the Eagles have a one-two offensive punch with LeSean McCoy ranking fifth in the NFL with 363 yards rushing.

Last years game may Problems aside, long rivalry will be renewed not be a sign of future
By TOM CANAVAN AP Sports Writer
FOXBOROUGH, Mass. The Patriots have allowed the most yards in the NFL. The Jets gained their fewest in 14 years in their last game. Both teams have problems and a chance to correct them against their intense rival when they meet today. A win could provide an extra spark heading into the rest of the season. Its a rivalry game, said New England defensive end Shaun Ellis, who was on the other side of it for the past 11 years. Regardless of ... what sideline youre on, you want to go out and play your best in this game. Its one of the biggest rivalries Ive been a part of since Ive been in the league. LaDainian Tomlinson joined New York last year after nine seasons with San Diego and didnt need much time to feel the energy. Its one of the best rivalries in football, he said. You hear about it when you are on the outside looking in, and its obviously different and special when you get to be a part of it. In the next installment, the Patriots (3-1) must shore up their defense without injured star linebacker Jerod Mayo, while the Jets (2-2) hope Mark Sanchezs terrible performance

in a 34-17 loss to Baltimore last Sunday resulted more from the play of one of the NFLs best defenses than their own struggling offense. Patriots coach Bill Belichick put the focus on preparing for the game, not feeding the hype. We talk about what we need to do to beat the Jets on Sunday, he said. Thats what were here for. I mean, what else is there to talk about? There was plenty of chatter before last seasons playoff game between the teams. Patriots wide receiver Wes Welker made some tongue-incheek remarks referring to footfetish reports involving New York coach Rex Ryan. Welker sat out the Patriots first series, although neither Belichick nor Welker would comment on the reason behind it, and the Jets pulled a 28-21 upset.
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. There seems to be a common feeling among the New York Giants and Seattle Seahawks relating to last years meeting between the teams. Just forget it. The Giants went to Seattle and did everything right in posting a 41-7 victory in a game that was over by halftime. Nothing is going to change that, so its time to move on. There are no gimmes in this league, Giants guard David Diehl said. Just because last year was lopsided will have no effect on this game and this year. Were not taking it that way. We know we need to make improvements. Were going to have to go out there and earn this one. The Giants (3-1) are coming into todays game at MetLife Stadium against the Seahawks (1-3), riding a three-game winning streak that has been highlighted by fourth-quarter comeback wins over Philadelphia and Arizona the past two weeks. Seattle is coming off a tough loss to Atlanta and will be playing its final game before a bye. Entering the week with a fourth loss is not the way to go on vacation. It is really important, Sea-

SEAHAWKS AT GIANTS TV: No local coverage. OPENING LINE: Giants by 10 LAST MEETING: Giants beat Seahawks 41-7, Nov. 7, 2010
hawks coach Pete Carroll said of getting a win. It was important last week and it will continue to be every week. Every game is enormous and every game is a championship game for us. You just have to do everything you can to get that opportunity going your way. With the bye coming up, it would be great to go into the bye with a win and feeling like we are growing. We are such a young team and we need all the confidence builders we can get. The Giants are going to have to do a lot of studying to prepare for the Seahawks, who have changed roughly half of their starters since last season. Quarterback Matt Hasselbeck signed with Tennessee as a free agent and he has been replaced by the more nimble Tavaris Jackson, the former Viking who posted a 2-1 record as a starter against the Giants.
PITTSBURGH Dont even start with the Super Bowl hangover stuff. The Pittsburgh Steelers dont want to hear it. The defending AFC champions say there are plenty of reasons for their lackluster 2-2 record heading into todays game against surprising Tennessee. The defense cant stop the run. The offensive line cant keep quarterback Ben Roethlisberger upright. The injury list is long and distinguished. No need to throw the Super Bowl in the mix. Yes, the Steelers failed to make the playoffs the U P N E X T next year after winning it all in TITANS AT the 2005 and STEELERS 2008 seasons. TV: 1 p.m., CBS, WYOU-22 Yet theres a OPENING difference be- LINE: Steelers tween then and by 612 LAST MEETnow. We didnt ING: Steelers win, so it beat Titans 19-11, Sept. 19, 2010 doesnt even matter, linebacker James Farrior said. I was a loser last year. We were just like all the other (30) teams that (didnt win) and was looking for a new year and a better start. The Titans (3-1) couldnt have asked for a faster one under firstyear coach Mike Munchak. The defense is playing lights out and quarterback Matt Hasselbeck is enjoying a rebirth after bolting Seattle. In a Peyton Manningless AFC South, Tennessee doesnt think the rebuilding process needs to take that long. A road victory over a perennial playoff contender would certainly look good on the resume. The Titans are certainly coming in at the right time. The Steelers will be without All-Pro linebacker James Harrison for several weeks after he needed surgery to repair a fractured orbital bone near his right eye sustained in a 17-10 loss to Houston. Roethlisberger will wear a special shoe to protect his sprained left foot and the offensive line is so decimated the team re-signed veteran Max Starks practically off the street. Everything from health to momentum appears to be tilting toward Tennessee. Munchak isnt quite ready to play that game. The media or the public perception is, Man, so-and-so is not playing, that means we win. It doesnt work that way, he said. Munchak need only point to last years meeting between the two teams for proof. The Steelers were without Roethlisberger, serving a fourgame suspension for violating the leagues personal conduct policy, and then lost backup Dennis Dixon to an injury in the first half. No matter. Veteran Charlie Batch came on in relief and led the Steelers to a 19-11 win in a game that may have served as the starting point for longtime coach Jeff Fishers departure. Fisher pulled quarterback Vince Young in favor of Kerry Collins, who nearly led Tennessee to a stunning comeback.

award. He stopped a Chris Bourque blast from in front on a power play and later stuffed Christian Hanson on a breakaway attempt during the period, which also including killing off a Hershey fiveon-three power play. To be able to kill it like we did with the guys blocking shots and getting in lanes was a big boost for us, Thiessen said. But not big enough to overcome Aucoins third period power play goal, which proved to be the game-winner. I was waiting for him to pass it, Thiessen said, expecting Aucoin to pass to a teammate sneaking in the backdoor. He was looking and looking, and finally I knew he couldnt make that play so he had to take a shot. Hes a good player and he made a good shot. Hynes said the fact that Aucoin was left alone on the power play was a miscue, but it wasnt intentional. The Penguins had an opportunity to get the puck out of the zone and head down the ice with a odd man rush, he said. We were moving up ice and he was hanging back, Hynes said. it works both ways. We dont get it out and it winds up with a high-end offensive players with the puck. Notes - Cody Wild, Zach Sill (suspension), Jason Williams (injury), Alex Grant, Ryan Schnell, Brian Day (injury) and Keven Veilleux (injury) were scratched for the Penguins.
Flyers bedevil New Jersey in opener

PENGUINS
NEWARK, N.J. Ilya Bryzgalov made 20 saves and the Philadelphia Flyers spoiled another home opener with a 3-0 win over the New Jersey Devils on Saturday night. The Flyers started the season on Thursday with a 2-1 win over the defending Stanley Cup champion Bruins in Boston. Philadelphia improved to 2-0 with the victory at the Prudential Center. Claude Giroux, Matt Read and Wayne Simmonds provided the goals to support Bryzgalov, the Flyers major offseason signing. It was his 24th career shutout and improved his record against New Jersey to 2-1-0. The Flyers win spoiled Peter DeBoers debut as Devils coach. Martin Brodeur made 26 saves for New Jersey. Ducks 2, Rangers 1 STOCKHOLM (AP) Bobby Ryan scored the only goal in a shootout and the Anaheim Ducks offset New York goalie Henrik Lundqvists spectacular play to beat the Rangers 2-1 on Saturday night. Andrew Cogliano opened the scoring for the Ducks midway through the first period, and Brad Richards tied it with 2:15 left in the third period. Lundqvist, from Sweden, kept the Rangers close and rewarded the sellout crowd with an outstanding game in the net, stopping 27 of 28 shots. Jonas Hiller made 14 saves for Anaheim. Both teams opened the season with losses Friday night. Buffalo beat Anaheim 4-1 in Helsinki, and Los Angeles topped New York 3-2 in overtime in Stockholm. Sabres 4, Kings 2 BERLIN Luke Adam scored twice in a 2:20 span early in the second period to help Buffalo beat Los Angeles in the first NHL game in Germany. Paul Gaustad and Drew Staf-
Maple Leafs 6, Senators 5 TORONTO Phil Kessel had three goals and an assist and Toronto held off Ottawa for its second victory in two games this season. Joffrey Lupul had a goal and two assists, Mikhail Grabovski and Colton Orr also scored, and James Reimer made 27 saves for Toronto, which led 5-1 midway through the third period. Daniel Alfredsson scored twice for the Senators, coming off a 5-3 loss in Detroit on Friday night. Colin Greening, Jason Spezza and Stephane Da Costa, with his first in NHL goal, also scored, and Erik Karlsson had three assists. Alex Auld took the loss in relief for Ottawa after allowing two goals in the third period. Craig Anderson started and gave up four goals on 20 shots through two periods. Capitals 4, Hurricanes 3, OT WASHINGTON Mike Green scored a power-play goal 2:24 into overtime and Washington won its 10th straight home opener. Greens drive from the top of the right circle trickled between goaltender Brian Bouchers legs for the Capitals, who havent lost their first regular season game at home since Oct. 6, 2000, against the Los Angeles Kings. Alexander Semin and Jason Chimera scored second-period goals for the Capitals, and Brooks Laich tallied in the third period. Wild 4, Blue Jackets 2 ST. PAUL, Minn.

Bruins 4, Lightning 1 BOSTON Rich Peverley scored twice and Brad Marchand assisted on both to lead Boston over Tampa Bay and give the Stanley Cup champions
its first win this season. Tim Thomas made 25 saves for the Bruins in the rematch of the Eastern Conference finals. Boston won that series with Thomas posting a 1-0 shutout in Game 7 and went on to earn its first NHL title since 1972. Tyler Seguin also had a pair of assists for Boston, which raised its sixth championship banner on Thursday night before losing to the Philadelphia Flyers 2-1. Martin St. Louis scored for the Lightning, and Mathieu Garon stopped 38 shots.
waited for Matt Ford to skate into the crease before roofing a shot into the top corner. The goal led to a 3-2 Penguins defeat in a game where they came from behind twice and played relatively sharp for the first game of the season. Tonight was a step in the right direction and we did a lot of good things, Penguins head coach John Hynes said. The difference was managing the game when its 2-2 going into the third period. While the end of the game wasnt what the Penguins envisioned, neither was the start. Hershey scored two goals on its first four shots, and both tallies came on Penguins turnovers. Hersheys Kyle Greentree struck first when Eric Tangradi had the puck stripped from his stick along the boards in the Penguins end. The puck slid into the slot to Greentree, who put it home for a 1-0 lead. Penguins rookie Brian Gibbons evened things up with a beautiful shorthanded goal that came after he split two Hershey defenders in the offensive zone and placed a shot past Dany Sabourins stick. But the momentum was shortlived 20 seconds in fact, as Hersheys Matt Ford swiped a Penguins clearing attempt and ripped a shot that went behind Brad Thiessen for a 2-1 lead. When you play a team that talented and skilled, you cant make some of the mistakes we did, Hynes said. Niko Dimitrakos evened things up quickly for the Penguins who began the second period on a power play. Colin McDonald gained control of the puck deep in the Hershey end and dished across to Dimitrakos, who streaked in from the blueline and beat Sabourin to make it 2-2. It was Dimitrakos first North American goal in three years after spending the last four seasons in Europe. After that Thiessen displayed the form that won him last seasons AHL Goaltender of the Year

Lycomings stifling defense holds Kings in check

Monarchs managed just 58 total yards in the first half to top-ranked defense.
By JAY MONAHAN For The Times Leader
WILKES-BARRE TWP. The way Kings has played as of late, the last thing it needed was a matchup with Lycoming. After being outscored by 110 points in their past two games, the Monarchs hosted the nations top defensive unit a bruising Warriors squad that came in allowing just 168 yards per game. The Kings offense struggled mightily but did manage to gain 196 yards, in a 42-10 loss to the Warriors on Saturday at McCarthy Stadium. Its just a good defense, said Kings head coach Jeff Knarr. We
knew we had to make plays on third down. I thought we ran the ball consistently but our passing game had to rise up. Lycomings defense posed problems for the Monarchs in the first half. At halftime, the Warriors held a 204-58 advantage in total yards. The top-ranked defense is comprised of three Wyoming Valley Conference starters. GAR graduate Chris Kish posted three tackles, and Lake-Lehman alum Roger Jayne had two tackles, including one for a 4-yard loss. Ray Bierbach, a Northwest product, also chipped in with a tackle from the safety spot. Its great to come home and show everyone what we can do, said Bierbach, who also returned two punts for 24 yards. We come with our hard hat and our lunch pail every day, and

thats what we did today, said Kish. We just played basic fundamental defense. Tied at 3-3, Lycoming benefited from a lucky bounce to score its first touchdown of the game. Jake Lehnowsky forced a fumble by Warrior running back Matt Atkinson in front of the goal line. The ball bounced off a Monarch defenders chest and into the hands of Greg Kovacs for a score to give Lycoming a 9-3 lead. Knarr said that, despite the score, his defense played one of
its best games of the season. The Monarchs forced three field goals in the first half. A 22-yard touchdown by Parker Showers put the game out of reach at 22-3 with 1:12 left in the first half. I thought our defense played much better, said Knarr. They were inspired, physical. We put them in some bad situations as far as field position. Despite the short field, they didnt give up touchdowns; they gave up field goals. Kings failed to achieve any sort of momentum in the passing game with quarterbacks Mike Daly and Joe Kirchon completing a total of 9-of-29 throws for 89 yards. We knew we had to make plays in the passing game, and we had way too many misfires there. Down 42-3 with 3:08 remaining, the Monarchs connected for
their lone touchdown of the game when Jordan Buford caught a 33-yard pass in the end zone from Daly. Replacement kicker Dan Kempa kicked a 22-yard field goal to tie the game at 3-3 in the first quarter. Kempa also hit an extra point after Bufords touchdown. Kings had its best opportunity of the game, down 12-3 in the second quarter, when it was stopped twice in Warrior territory with six inches to-go for a first down. Knarr said, Were still a young football team that isnt where it should be in the weight room. Kyle McGrath rushed for 84 yards on 17 carries for the Monarchs.

Wilkes cant turn away DelVal

The Colonels force four turnovers, but still fall to the No. 10 team in Division III.

WILKES
EDWARDSVILLE In the last meeting between Wilkes and Delaware Valley, the Colonels forced eight turnovers in a loss. If the same scenario came up for Wilkes this time around, the team was determined to make the Aggies pay. Although Delaware Valley didnt cough up the ball nearly as much, the team did turn the ball over four times on Saturday at Schmidt Stadium. But once again, Wilkes couldnt take advantage, while the Aggies did capitalize on a Wilkes turnover in a 14-6 setback to Delaware Valley, which entered ranked 10th in the country in the AFCA Division III Coaches Poll and 16th in the D3football.com Top 25. We had opportunities throughout the course of the game and unfortunately we didnt capitalize on those oppor-
tunities, Colonels coach Frank Sheptock said. You know youre going to go through spurts where theyre causing you a lot of issues, but we had chances because there were times we were moving the ball well. We just couldnt put it in the end zone. The Aggies (6-0, 4-0 MAC), the three-time defending MAC champions, rattled Colonels sophomore quarterback Alex George early in the game to set the tone. Wilkes first drive was advancing into DelVal territory before George was intercepted in the end zone. It was the first time this season the QB was picked off. The Wilkes (2-3, 2-2) defense held the Aggies scoreless after the turnover. But two possessions later, after George coughed up the ball, Delaware Valley needed four plays to take a 7-0 lead. George, who entered the On the first pitch after play resumed, Brandon Inge grounded out. Austin Jackson followed with an RBI double and eventually scored on a wild pitch while Wilson walked three batters to load the bases. Magglio Ordonez had just drawn his walk when heavy rain started falling again, and play was stopped. These were the first rain delays at Rangers Ballpark since May 24. This season was played during one of the hottest and driest summers ever in North Texas, with 100-degree days the
game with a 64.8 completion percentage, was just 2-for-10 on Saturday. With all the moving, it was hard to get a gauge on what they were doing in the secondary. Theyre pretty experienced there and its the first time hes seen that scheme, Sheptock said. But hell bounce back. Hes a very resilient young man. The Aggies opened a 14-0 advantage a few drives later in the second quarter after Wilkes couldnt capitalize on two more takeaways. Senior defensive back Matt Gunther recovered a fumble, but Tyler Bernsten who replaced George was intercepted three plays after that. Delaware Valleys first play resulted in an interception by Gunther on the Aggies 47 and Wilkes got to the 20-yard line on the drive. But penalties pushed the Colonels back to the 37 and they eventually had to punt, which set up DelVal to take a14-0 lead with 4:44 left in the second quarter. Tailback Zach Tivald accounted for Wilkes lone score with a 77-yard touchdown run in the third quarter when he busted norm. Wilson already had six strikeouts and benefited from two inning-ending double plays. He had thrown 72 pitches before the first break, and 24 more before the second stoppage. Texas took a 2-0 lead in the second on an RBI triple by David Murphy before he scored on Ian Kinslers single. Nelson Cruz homered leading off the fourth, ending an 0-for-10 postseason slump. It was his seventh postseason homer, a Rangers record and one more than
through the line, breaking tackles, then sprinted to the end zone. The senior rushed for 148 yards on 25 carries. He became the first back to go for more than 100 yards against Delaware Valley since Lebanon Valleys Charlie Parker did so in 2008. Zach, I think hes as good a back as there is. Hes a hard worker and hes a complete back, Sheptock said.

Welke, certainly about the weather. A few minutes later, after Ramon Santiago led off the fifth with a double and while Brandon Inge was batting with a 1-0 count against C.J. Wilson, the intensity of the rain picked up. Welke then stopped the game for the first time, with Texas up 3-0, and had the field covered.
Juan Gonzalez had. Verlander had five strikeouts and two walks while throwing 82 pitches over the first four innings. Joaquin Benoit was tossing balls in the bullpen, instead of Verlander, when play resumed in the top of the fifth. Both of Verlanders walks came in the first, when he also struck out Josh Hamilton and Adrian Beltre to avoid giving up a run even after center fielder Jackson made an error when a flyball by Elvis Andrus hit off the heel of his glove.
The cause of death was not immediately disclosed. Davis was one of the most important figures in pro football history from his role in the development of the AFL, the merger with the NFL and the success he built on the field with the Raiders. Al Daviss passion for football and his influence on the game were extraordinary, Commissioner Roger Goodell said. He defined the Raiders and contributed to pro football at every level. The respect he commanded was evident in the way that people listened carefully every time he spoke. He is a true legend of the game whose impact and legacy will forever be part of the NFL. Davis was also a litigious gadfly. That was most evident during the 1980s when he went to court and won for the right to move his team from Oakland to Los Angeles. Even after he moved the Raiders back to the Bay Area in 1995, he sued for $1.2 billion to establish that he still owned the rights to the L.A. market. Before that, though, he was a pivotal figure in hastening the merger between the AFL where he served as commissioner and the more established NFL. Davis was not initially in favor of a merger, but his aggressive pursuit of NFL players for his fledgling league and team helped bring about the eventual 1970 combination of the two leagues into what is now the most popular sport in the country. Al Davis was a good man, and we were friendly rivals, Steelers chairman emeritus Dan Rooney said in a statement released by the Steelers. He was a football man and did a lot for the game of football. I had a lot of respect for him, and he will be missed throughout the entire NFL. But Davis was hardly an NFL company man. Not in the way he dressed usually satin running suits, one white, one black, and the occasional black suit, black shirt and silver tie. Not in the way he wore his hair slicked back with a 50s duck-tail. Not in the way he talked Brooklynese with Southern inflection. Not in the way he did business on his own terms, always on his own terms. His contributions and expertise were inspiring at every level
coach, general manager, owner and commissioner, Dallas owner Jerry Jones said. There was no element of the game of professional football for which Al did not enjoy a thorough and complete level of knowledge and passion. Elected in 1992 to the Pro Football Hall of Fame, Davis was a trailblazer during his half-century in professional football. He hired the first black head coach of the modern era Art Shell in 1988. He hired the first Latino coach, Tom Flores; and the first woman CEO, Amy Trask. And he was infallibly loyal to his players and officials: to be a Raider was to be a Raider for life. Everybody realizes that sooner or later, youre going to die. You never expected that from him, because he was so tough, said former Raiders Hall of Famer cornerback Willie Brown. The things hed gone through over the years, of course. Hes meant a lot to this organization, because hes the leader. Its hard to replace a great leader and a legend like Al Davis. Coach Hue Jackson told the team of Davis death at a meeting in Houston on Saturday morning. Fans dressed in Raiders jerseys, meanwhile, quickly made their way to team headquarters in Alameda, where a black flag with the team logo flew at half-staff and a makeshift memorial formed at the base of the flag pole. Definitely shocking news for us, quarterback Jason Campbell said. We got here last night and then you wake up this morning and hear we lost our owner, the man who built this team for many, many years, its tough to take in as a team. We understand what he meant to this organization. He loved his players, and that didnt matter if you were here now, or if you played for him 30 years ago. He still loved all his players. People carrying flowers, flags, silver and black pompoms and even a football-shaped balloon stopped by to pay tribute on a warm, crystal clear fall day in the Bay Area. A tiny candle burned as well. Its like losing a grandfather, said Rob Ybarra of Alameda, who left a bouquet of white flowers shortly after hearing the news of Davis passing. Hes such an icon. The face of the Raiders. Its hard to put into words how much he meant to everyone. Davis is survived by his wife, Carol, and son Mark, who Davis had said would run the team after his death.

long Interstate 81 South between Moosic and Wilkes-Barre, theres a gray fox lying dead alongside the road. Struck by a vehicle, no doubt, the foxs gray pelt splashed with patches of rusty red surely catches the eye of many passing motorists. Like most things in nature, the fox is a thing of beauty something to be respected. Unfortunately, this one is going to waste. Death by vehicle is a common demise for many of Pennsylvanias furbearers. Disease ranks up there as well. What makes such incidents even more unfortunate is they can usually be avoided. How? Through trapping. Regulated trapping is the best tool to manage furbearer populations, and keep them in check with the available habitat and food sources. Rather than wind up rotting alongside a road or dying a slow, painful death from disease, trapping not only keeps populations in check but ensures that the furbearer is utilized. Recently, however, an animal welfare group, Born Free USA, went on the attack against trapping. The group released a video with a handful of incidents that they claim involved trappers handling their catch in an inhumane manner. They then went on to use the incidents to paint all of trapping with the same brush. To take it a step further, Born Free USA petitioned the Pennsylvania Game Commission to make a number of changes in regards to trapping. They include prohibiting the use of Conibear, or body-grip, traps, prohibit the use of cable restraints and require trappers to employ an efficient and less-cruel method of dispatching their catches. Many false impressions Fortunately, the PGC board didnt act on the petition one that is filled with misconceptions. For starters, the petition contains a huge contraction. On one hand, Born Free wants trappers to be required to use efficient and less-cruel dispatching methods, while at the same time the group wants a ban on the very trap capable of dispatching a furbearer instantly and humanely the body-grip trap. And theres more. Barry Warner, public relations director for the Pennsylvania Trappers Association, believes that many of the cruel incidents contained in Born Free USAs video are actually staged. A real trapper, he said, doesnt get their kicks by standing around a set and torturing a captured animal. No one likes to see that, said Warner, who is a lifelong trapper. Its ludicrous. Its a shame that a valuable wildlife management tool such as trapping is the target of a group that uses sensationalism and emotion not facts -- to back its argument. Ethics are what drive trapping. Its why we check our traps early every morning, use body-grip traps for mink, muskrat and beaver, and make humanely dispatching our catch top priority. Its also why almost 5,300 people since 2005 have taken the cable restraint course conducted by the PGC and PTA, in addition to trapper training programs conducted throughout the state. I know in my heart that trapping is a very valid method to manage wildlife, Warner said. The only method to prevent the spread of rabies and distemper, keep predator populations in check to protect the eggs of nesting birds and limit conflicts with humans. And, just as important, trapping is the best way to avoid wasting our wildlife resource, such as the gray fox rotting away alongside the interstate.

New CWD regs With Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD) nearly 10 miles south of the Pennsylvania-Maryland line, the Pennsylvania Board of Game Commissioners gave final approval last week to a revised set of emergency powers enabling the agencys executive director to take actions that will mitigate risk factors and determine the prevalence and geographic distribution of CWD. For more than a decade, the Game Commission has been monitoring our CWD status and striving to prevent CWD from coming to our state, said Carl G. Roe, PGC executive director. While I hope that I never have to use these new tools, it is imperative this agencys executive director be empowered to contain the disease to one area and prevent, or at the very least, slow the spread of this disease.

American team qualifies for 12 Games

TOKYO The American Kiddie Corps looked as if theyd been on the big stage for years Saturday, responding to the loss of Beijing Olympic captain Alicia Sacramone with a commanding performance that topped qualifying at the world gymnastics championships and secured a spot at the 2012 London Games. They rose to the occasion, national team coordinator Martha Karolyi said. This was special, showing how young girls are growing into international gymnasts. The U.S. was dealt a massive blow Thursday when Sacramone tore her Achilles tendon
during training. The Americans were counting on her veteran poise to calm and reassure the youngsters Jordyn Wieber, McKayla Maroney, Sabrina Vega and Gabby Douglas are all firstyear seniors not to mention the big scores she puts up on vault, balance beam and floor. And with uneven bars specialist Anna Li sidelined by an abdominal injury, the remaining Americans would have to do every event. It was a tall order for the youngsters and they handled it like old pros. These guys are basically on a mission, U.S. coach John Geddert said. Im very, very proud of them. But again, its only one step.
Team finals are Tuesday night. The Americans didnt have a single fall, and their score of 234.253 points was more than three points better than defending champion Russia and almost four points ahead of Olympic champ China. They posted the highest team score on floor exercise and vault, and were secondbest on uneven bars and balance beam. All five Americans were in the top 12 of the individual standings, with Wieber trailing Russias Viktoria Komova by a mere 0.125 points. Aly Raisman was fourth in the all-around and had the highest score of the meet on floor exercise, while Maroney posted the best score on vault.

CEO pay accelerates nationwide
True college cost a click away

By CANDICE CHOI AP Personal Finance Writer
THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. AstheboardofAmgenconvenedat the companys headquarters in March, Chief Executive Kevin Sharer seemed an unlikely candidate for a raise. Shareholders at the company, one of the nations largest biotech firms, had lost 3 percent on their investment in 2010 and 7 percent over the past five years. The company had been forced to close or shrink plants, trimming the workforce from 20,100 to 17,400. And Sharer, a 63-year-old former Navy engineer, was already earning lots of money about $15 million in the previous year, plus such perks as two corporate jets. The board decided to give Sharer more. It boosted his compensation to $21 million annually, a 37 percent increase, according to the company reports. Why? The company board agreed to pay Sharer more than most chief executivesintheindustrywitha compensation value closer to the 75th percentile of the peer group, according to a 2011 regulatory filing. This is how its done in corporate America. At Amgen and at the vast majority of large U.S. companies, boards aim to pay their executives at levels equal to or above the median for executives at similar companies. The idea behind setting executive pay this way, known as peer benchmarking, is to keep talented bosses from leaving. But the practice has long been controversial because, as critics have pointed out, if every company tries to keep up with or exceed the median pay for executives, executive compensation will spiral upward, regardless of performance. Few if any corporate boards consider their executive teams to be beSee CEO, Page 3D
NEW YORK Students checking out colleges this fall shouldnt rule out any options based on price alone. The tuition and fees that schools publish online are often far more than what families end up paying. The problem is that the true cost of attendance after subtracting federal, state and school grants isnt always clear until students receive their financial aid award letters. But starting Oct. 29, colleges will be required to provide net price calculators on
their websites. These will give families a better sense of what their actual costs would be for that particular year. This is expected to help students get a more accurate assessment of the range of schools that are within their reach. The sticker price is what people look at, but its not a good indicator of what your cost is going to be, says Laura Asher, president of the Institute for College Access & Success, which advocates for more affordable education. Sometimes youll end up with a better deal at a school that looks more expensive on the surface.
At private colleges, which tend to have bigger endowments from which they can provide aid, the average published cost for tuition and fees is $37,000. But that figure drops to $21,000 after factoring in grant aid, according to the College Board, which tracks trends in education pricing. At public schools, the average published total for tuition and fees of $16,000 drops to $10,000 when factoring in grant aid. Students and families dont have to wait until later this month to start getting a betSee COLLEGE, Page 3D

Flood-damaged businesses need help now

he worst natural disaster we faced in all the years my wife and I owned The Dallas Post and The Abington Journal was a lightning strike that knocked out our computers for a day. We thought that was terribly inconvenient and resented the unexpected cost of a few hundred dollars, but were back to work long before deadline. That was a minor blip compared to the financial and personal tragedy faced by business owners such as Gino Tighe, whose G T Fabrication Inc. in Pittston suffered $2.5 million in flood damage, more than twice the coverage provided by insurance. Aside from his personal hardship, Tighe had to tell 30 employees they dont have jobs until he can find a way to recover. The losses at some smaller businesses were a fraction of Tighes, but their impact is just as great. Randy Ayers saw his barbecue restaurant in Plains Township devastated by floodwaters that reached the ceiling of his rented space. Things were just starting to get moving, for the 3-year-old business, he told reporter Jennifer Learn-Andes. Now the question is how to help these businesses these employers of dads and moms, teens and seniors get back on their feet. You would think that at a time such as this politicians and the private sector would quickly agree on a way to finance recovery. Instead, we witnessed a drawn-out fight in Washington over funding for disaster relief our representatives split on the first vote while in Harrisburg Gov. Tom Corbett seems more interested in coddling natural gas drillers than in finding money to help local businesses. One simple step could ease the way to recovery for businesses that need money to repair buildings and replace damaged equipment reducing the interest rate charged on disaster loans. Joe Milazzo, whose Plains Township company makes Qik Joe and other widely distributed products, said the rate was 1 percent after the 1972 Agnes flooding, while today its 4-6 percent. That makes no sense, and is destructive rather than helpful, when rates paid to savers are at record lows. Reducing the rate to 1 percent would not be a giveaway, because the return would include the payroll and income taxes paid by workers who would be getting paychecks and not unemployment benefits. And theres ample precedent; weve been giving the huge banks that plunged the economy into recession even sweeter deals for the past three years, allowing them to borrow money virtually for free while many of them shed thousands of workers. For now, local businesses must navigate a hodgepodge of financing options. Luzerne County has 1.5 percent money available, but in limited amounts and with many restrictions. The Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber has instituted a recovery fund that is being matched by the Luzerne Foundation, but again, the scope is limited. NEPA Alliance has loans at 3 percent interest and many local banks are promoting special rates for flood recovery. While commendable, all those things together cant come close to meeting the needs of flooded area businesses. And if we cant figure out how to help them get back on their feet, this regions already unacceptable unemployment rate will go higher and a generation of entrepreneurs will see their dreams dashed. Perhaps not every damaged business should be rebuilt, some should move and some may not have the credentials to merit a loan. But many enterprises that represent a lifetime of effort and commitment deserve the chance to make a go of it. Failure to help them will diminish our communities and injure our spirit at a time when we need to bolster both.

ITTSTON TWP. For years, officials of Wilkes-Barre/Scranton International Airport have contended that ticket prices there are competitive with big-city airports in Philadelphia and New York. It turns out they are right for many popular destinations; in some cases flights from the local airport are less expensive, while in others the small difference is more than made up by gas, tollandparkingfeesincurredwithadrive to the larger departure points. A Times Leader analysis of roundtrip coach airfares to destinations including Las Vegas, Orlando, London and Los An-
geles found that the cost of departing from the local airport is often cheaper than or comparable to flying out of Newark or Philadelphia. . There are some exceptions, but anyone with access to the Internet, a few spare minutes and a willingness to compare fares will find the perception that youll save money by flying out of larger airports is a myth. Its widely thought in Northeastern Pennsylvania that fares are higher here at this airport and people oftentimes dont even test that, said Mike Washo, a Lackawanna County Commissioner, member of the airports Bi-County Board of Directors and a frequent flyer from the airport
identifiedbytheFederalAviationAdministration as AVP. That symbol references the nearby borough of Avoca, even though the majority of the facility lies in Pittston Township. Washo said hes often found flights out of Avoca to be comparable to those leaving major airports. In many instances, its less expensive to fly from Avoca to a major airport for a layover and then on to your final destination than it is to drive to the large airport and fly directly. Thats the case for travelers who want to fly to London on Nov. 4 and return Nov. 11.

trip drive there, I have no problem paying a few extra bucks to fly out of here. Munley said when the entire family of five flies, however, a difference of $40 per ticket addsupandtheywilloftentakeprice,notconvenience, into consideration. The examples of cheaper flights or those within $40 when leaving from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton rather than Newark or Philadelphia are numerous. Using the departure date of Nov. 4 and return date of Nov.11, the Times Leader review of roundtrip coach ticket costs found: A U.S. Airways flight from Avoca to Las Vegas, with a layover in Philadelphia heading out and back, is $410. Flying out of Newark, with a layover in Charlotte heading west and Phoenix heading east, will cost $390. Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to Orlando on U.S. Airways will set you back $382. Drive the two hours to Newark instead and youll save only $24. Heading to the West Coast, why drive east first? Especially since a Delta Airlines roundtrip flight from Avoca to Los Angeles is $340 with a one hour, seven minute layover at the Detroit/Wayne County Airport heading out and a one hour, 20 minute wait at that same airport coming home. Flying from NewarktoLosAngeleswithaonehourlayoverat Cincinnati/NorthernKentuckyAirportheading out and a one hour, 14 minute layover at Memphis International Airport coming back will set you back $374.80, $34.80 more than leaving from Avoca.

than a nonstop flight out of Philadelphia. Not all cheaper There are plenty of examples of flights not only less expensive from Philadelphia or Newark, but sometimes dramatically cheaper. Mostoftheseareattributabletothefinaldestinations not being served from Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton. In the Times Leader survey, flights to Boston, Dallas and Miami were almost always cheaper when flying out of Newark or Philly, often with prices as little as one-third the cost of departing from Avoca. And there still are flights to cities served directly from Avoca, such as Chicago, that are much more expensive than those from Philadelphia or Newark. Airport Director Barry J. Centini said the airport keeps track of the flight schedules and fares at nearby airports and alerts airlines when they believe there is too great a disparity. To help passengers compare pricing, Centini said the airport has added a True Cost Calculator to its flyavp.com website for travelers toseehowmuchaflightoutofPhiladelphiaor NewarkorLehighValleyAirportinAllentown costswhenparking,gasandtollsareincluded.

tersenseoftheirexpectedcostseither; many schools have already posted their net price calculators. But theyre far from perfect and arent always as straightforward as one might expect. Heres how to get started: To start, its important to understand what exactly the net price entails. This is defined as the total cost of attendance including books, room and board after the total estimated grantaidaparticularstudentwouldreceive from the school, the state and federal government. Schools are given a lot of leeway in how they arrive at this figure, however. Thismeansthatthecalculatorscanvary significantly in how much financial information theyll require. The U.S. Department of Education provides a fairly simple template that asks just 10 questions. But schools can use their own or other outside calculators that require more detail information. Even with the more intricate calculators, families shouldnt have problems answering the questions as long astheyhaveacopyoftheirmostrecent tax forms in hand. Also note that the calculators are designed to give esti-
mates; they cant accurately predict costs to the dollar. Its also important to note that the aid a school provides in the first year isnt necessarily guaranteed in following years, even if your financial situation doesnt change. If the net price calculator isnt immediately available on the homepage, look undertheFinancialAidsection,which is usually under an Admissions heading.Thecalculatormayalsobelistedunder a different name, such as financial aid estimator. Remember that schools arent required to post their calculators until later this month. So if you dont see it right now, check back in a few weeks. Once youve located the calculator and entered all your information, you also want to be sure that youre looking at the right figure. Some schools may also provide a figure called out-of-pocket cost or remaining cost. Dont be confused; this is the cost after the school factors in projected income from work and loans. These figures may also combine federal and private loans into one lump sum, even though their interest rates and terms can vary significantly. Even if the calculator spits out a net price thats slightly out of your reach, dont be discouraged. The calculator might not have taken into account special circumstances, such as recent unemployment or academic achievements, that could qualify you for more aid.

You would pay $881for a ticket to fly directly out of Philadelphia International on U.S. Airwaysflight728arrivingatLondonsHeathrow Airport seven hours and15 minutes later. Factor in the price of gas, tolls on the turnpike and parking for the week and youre likely tacking on a couple of hundred dollars more. Or you can take a 46 minute flight from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton to Philly and catch the same plane to London. For that option you would shell out $845 for the roundtrip, taking the same flight back from London to Philly with the extra flight back to Avoca. The bottom line: Two short extra flights, lower parking, tolls and gas costs and the much quicker, more convenient check in at Avoca, all for $36 less. Time is huge, Washo said. Its not as hectic here. Patricia Munley, of Exeter, knows. At the airport last week to pick up her daughter,whowasreturninghomeaftervisiting a friend in Florida, Munley said her family used to fly out of New York-area airports but in recent years the prices at Avoca have come down to the point that they choose to leave Luzerne County to catch a flight fewer than one trip out of four.

low average, so the result has become known as the Lake Wobegon effect. It wasnt until recently, however, that its pervasiveness and impact on executive pay became clear.
Companies have long hid the way they set executive pay, but in late 2006, the Securities and Exchange Commission began compelling companies to disclose the specifics of how they use peer groups to determine executive pay. Since then, researchers have found that about 90 percent of major U.S. companies expressly set their executive pay targets at or
above the median of their peer group.Thiscreatesjustthekindsof circumstances that drive pay upward. Moreover, the jump in pay because of peer benchmarking is significant. A chief executives pay is more influenced by what his or her peers earn than by the companys recent performance for shareholders, according to two independ-
ent research efforts based on the new disclosures. One was by Michael Faulkender at the University of Maryland and Jun Yang of IndianaUniversity,andanotherwasled by John Bizjak at Texas Christian University. Peer benchmarking has a significantinfluenceonCEOpay,Bizjak said. Basically, you cant have every CEO paid above average with-
out pay ratcheting upward over time. The gap between what workers and top executives make helps explain why income inequality in the United States is reaching levels unseen since the Great Depression.

OFFICE COACH
Helicopter parent causes friction

By MARIE G. MCINTYRE McClatchy-Tribune News Service
Q: The mother of one of my employees recently called my boss to complain that her daughter, Angie, was being overworked. Angie was upset because some required training made it difficult for her to complete her regular duties, so I quickly resolved the problem by changing her training schedule. However, I was completely shocked that Angie had been afraid to talk to me directly and that her mother felt a need to contact my manager. With Angies permission, I called her mother, who said she was just worried about her daughters health. Apparently, the suggestion to call my boss came from our receptionist, who is a personal friend of Angies mother. I dont understand why the receptionist never told me about this, because we have always had a
great relationship. The fact that all these people have been talking behind my back has me very upset. As Angies supervisor, I feel I should have been given more respect. What should I do? A: You need to take a deep breath, calm down, and recognize that this is not some sort of subversive plot. You have simply gotten caught up in a convoluted communication chain. So instead of continuing to fret about recent events, focus on the future and take steps to prevent a recurrence. Regrettably, Angies mother appears to be a helicopter parent who doesnt understand that anyone old enough to have finished high school is also old enough to handle her own work issues. To help Angie break the habit of making Mom her mouthpiece, gently explain what she needs to do instead. For example: Angie, Im glad we were able to resolve your
concerns about the training schedule. However, I hope that in the future youll come to me directly if you are worried about anything. As your supervisor, my goal is to help you be successful, so we need to discuss any problems you may have. As for the receptionist, just cut her a little slack. She may have inadvertently stepped on your toes while trying to help a friend, but thats no reason to ruin a previously great relationship.
one reminder emails about the policy, but this guy is still eating his soup. How do we get him to stop? A: Like many managers, your boss has not yet learned that group warnings never solve individual performance problems. General admonitions are almost always ignored by the actual offenders. To actually enforce the policy, your manager must stop hiding behind reminder emails and tell this soup-slurping employee to take his bowl to the Q: My co-worker eats soup in break room.

DRAWING INVESTORS IN The typical investor doesn't know enough about the financial reporting process. At least, that's what the Center for Audit Quality thinks, and has set out to change. The CAQ has developed a three-minute video that's intended to break down how public companies are audited. Perhaps because the subject might be considered less than gripping, the video tells the story through drawings. It features film-noir-style characters with names like Lotta Charts, Indy Pendent, and Johnny Law. At the very least, the trench-coat-draped hero and moody background music inject some glamour into the accounting field. NO MORE PROCRASTINATION Nokia was once a leader in the cell phone industry, but it has been clobbered by innovations from rivals like Apple and Google. Nokia has said it will release its first Windows-based smartphone sometime this quarter. The phone has the best chance at wowing consumers if it's released in time for the start of the November shopping season. But there's a problem: Nokia traditionally doesn't start phone shipments until six months after it has unveiled a new phone. That would mean the earliest the phone could get into customers' hands would be April 2012. Nokia says that's no problem. It's changing its ways and will ship its new phones sooner than it used to. LESS BAD It's been a bad year for European stocks. Morningstar says all of the developed Europe funds it tracks lost money between the beginning of the year and Sept. 13. But before you pull all of your money from European companies, take a breath: some European stocks rose during that time, like Unilever. The Virtus Greater European Opportunities fund (VGEAX) has more than a third of its assets in Unilever and other consumer companies. That fund has fallen only 3 percent. Unilever sells basics from dried pasta to soap items people can't do without, even in a downturn. Morningstar says funds that are heavily invested in defensive industries like consumer staples and health care have done better than others. That's true in the U.S. and abroad.

Matthew Swaim, a portfolio manager at Advisory Research, says stocks may look like even better now than they did in March 2009, when the market hit bottom. Advisory Research has about $6 billion in assets under management, and Swaim helps run its All Cap Value Fund (ADVGX) and its Global Value fund (ADVWX).
InsiderQ&A
Why have stocks struggled lately? Is it because of a potential default in Europe? Europe is the one that has controlled the headlines for the last four or five weeks, Swaim but you can also throw in (fears about a slowdown in) Asian growth and how that develops over the next few years. Not only the growth but the potential overinvestment there: Theres too much capacity, too much inventories in certain areas.
The smart money is split on Bank of America. Investors George Soros and John Paulson have sold stock in the nations largest bank. Bruce Berkowitz, Thomas Brown and other fund managers are buying. Billionaire investor Warren Buffett has invested $5 billion. The sellers have largely been winning this bet. Bank of Americas stock plunged 44 percent in the third quarter. Its up 2.6 percent in the fourth but is still at a price not seen since March 2009.
Mixed reviews
Bank of America (BAC)
Thursdays close: $6.28 $5.13
52-WEEK RANGE
Mortgage rates fall to record low

Why are they selling?
Bank of America is swamped by losses from failed mortgages. Its fighting lawsuits from the government and investors who say the bank should buy back faulty mortgage securities or pay damages. In the first half, the bank paid $12.7 billion to settle such claims. Sellers dont want to hold the stock because Bank of America doesnt know how many billions of dollars it ultimately will pay on all the lawsuits. Soros sold 1.2 million Bank of America shares in the second quarter. Paulson and David Tepper of Appaloosa Management each sold half their stock in the same quarter.
InterestRates
The average rate on a 30-year fixed mortgage fell to 3.94 percent last week. Its the first time the rate has been below 4 percent, Freddie Mac says. Mortgage rates often rise and fall with the yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which has been mostly falling this year. But the 10-year yield rose slightly last week after employers added more jobs in September than economists expected.

Why are they buying?

Bank of America is the cheapest among large U.S. banks. Its also selling assets to raise capital to improve its balance sheet. So buyers are speculating it might spin off its profitable Merrill Lynch investment bank. Thomas Brown, CEO of hedge fund Second Curve Capital, is buying after criticizing Bank of America in the past for making big acquisitions like Merrill. Its still too big, but getting smaller, which is a good thing, he says. Buffett paid $5 billion for preferred shares that will earn him an annual dividend of 6 percent. He also has an option to purchase 700 million shares of common stock. Berkowitz of Fairholme Capital Management bought 7 million shares in the second quarter. He now has 99 million and is one of the banks 10 largest shareholders. At Thursdays closing price, his stake is worth $621.7 million.

Your global fund keeps about 8.5 percent of the portfolio in Japanese stocks. Those have been either disappointing or overlooked for a few decades now. We just found some good opportunities there from a valuation perspective. There are companies in developed Asia that have access to emerging market growth, whether that be China or other emerging parts of Asia. Japanese companies do have unique assets in Asia, and theyre able to take advantage of that growth. And youre not paying that (high a price for that). Youre paying a (price-to-earnings) multiple that would suggest theyre only operating in a slower-growth Japan environment. We think were getting value prices. Is it frustrating for you to see stocks moving in unison, regardless of their quality? We think that eventually business values will drive the outcome. Ultimately, if the public market wont value assets properly, management teams will have the ability to monetize the assets at prices that make sense. That means it may play out (through corporate mergers, where acquiring companies will pay a higher price for a company than the stock market will). Weve been hearing that a big wave of acquisitions is coming, but it hasnt arrived yet. It has not. We saw a flurry last year. Weve seen a couple this year, but its slowed as banks have pulled back on funding. But youve got larger companies that do not see vast (investment) opportunities for their cash. Theyre considering returning their capital. One way to do that is to buy assets that have good return potential, and we think thats (available by buying small and mid-cap companies). Certainly, they have the cash on their balance sheets to execute. Are stocks looking as cheap as they did in March 2009? From a risk-reward standpoint, its a better time than March 2009. Balance sheets are healthier. Cost structures are at a place where theyre making good money at even a potentially lower level of sales. So the businesses are lean and mean, and the balance sheets are healthy. If it picks up, as it continues to build off the bottom, these businesses have high return potential, and you dont have the downside risk of overleveraged balance sheets (like during the recession, when companies were weighed down by more debt) or the liquidation of inventories. In October 2008, you had a lot of retail companies with bloated inventory that were forced to liquidate (and sell their products off at cheap prices). That forced a lot of losses on these companies. But were not in that situation now. Inventories are healthy. Balance sheets are healthy. Stocks look pretty cheap.

Avoiding Europe
Stock Screener
Europe still looks like a mess, so it may pay to look for U.S. companies that have little to do with the continent. This screen from Deutsche Bank shows companies that get zero sales from Europe. Thats a bigger deal than it used to be: S&P 500 companies made $666.4 million in revenue from Europe last year, up from $516.7 million in 2009. Those sales could be in trouble. Greece has borrowed so much that investors worry that a default is inevitable. That would trigger losses for European banks that own the bonds. It could also lead to a recession. The concerns have already hurt the value of the euro, which is worth $1.34, down from $1.43 at the end of 2009. The stocks in this screen have also shown little reaction to swings in the euros value. Thats measured by whats known as the stocks beta against the euro. A stock with a beta of 1.0 relative to the euro means that the two tend to move together. A stock with a beta of 0.5 relative to the euro tends to fall just 1 percent when the euro falls 2 percent. All of these stocks have a beta of less than 0.5 relative to the euro over the last five years.

Can teams lend new tread to the Motor City?

CHRIS CHRISTIE of New Jersey, not surprisingly, chose to remain in Trenton rather than seek the Republican presidential nomination. A day later Sarah Palin, not surprisingly, was incoherent when stating her intentions. Last week, payroll processor ADP said 91,000 private sector jobs were created in September. And, while the Ford Motor Co., not surprisingly, was announcing a 9 percent increase for U.S. vehicle sales, its hometown Detroit Lions were inexplicably undefeated at 4 and 0. Gov. Christie, former Gov. Palin and September job figures are newsworthy. But Detroits Lions have not seen a 4-and-0 start since 1980 when President Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan were racing toward the finish line. The Detroit Lions have energized a city that enjoys a rich history and, like its NFL franchise, might finally be on the rebound after decades of decline. Next year historical remembrances of the United States second war with England will stretch from New Orleans to Detroit and into Canada. They will take place in locations including Washington, D.C., where British troops burned the home of Dolly and President Madison; in Baltimore where bombs bursting in air gave proof through the night that Englands assault upon Fort McHenry had failed; and on Lake Erie, where American naval forces on Oct. 9, 1812 initiated the essential retaking of Her Majestys Ship Detroit. Originally christened the USS Adams, the British renamed her HMS Detroit after the American fort and settlement they also had captured. The encampment Detroit was constructed on a river that along with the St. Clair River forms the indispensable strait connecting Lake Erie and Lake Huron. Its remarkable geographic location, a fortuitous accident of nature, would become a military, trading and economic gold mine. Detroit, the French word for strait, was founded in 1701 by Antonine Laumet de La Mothe, sieur de Cadillac. The Great Lakes and navigable rivers were once Americas premiere interstate highway system. Nary a vessel of any consequence could traverse the Great Lakes and reach the Atlantic Ocean or, leaving the Atlantic, reach the Great Lakes without passing through Detroit. Fort, settlement and city, Detroit has been the Motor City, the Paris of the west and Motown. During World War II, President Roosevelt called its industrial might, the arsenal of democracy. Today Detroit holds the distinction of being the only U.S. city to have had more than a million residents, but no longer. In the last decade alone it lost an incredible 238,000 residents, 25 percent of its population. With its numbers plummeting to 713,777 Detroit is the 18th largest city in the United States. As the Lions go, so goes Detroit? The Tigers vanquished the New York Yankees on Thursday night, and Dave Bing, 67, the former NBA star of the Detroit Pistons and a self-made steel mogul was recently elected mayor. He is considering various ideas for right-sizing his expansive city of 144 square miles and hundreds of abandoned square blocks. In addition, a recent article in USA Today suggests the Sun Belt boom with its money, jobs and corresponding increase in reapportioned congressional districts might be reaching an end. Migration to the South and West has slowed considerably. In the fall of 1956 Detroit was the fifth largest city in the United States. Its population of 1.9 million was booming, and the Detroit Lions under Bobby Layne and Howard Hopalong Cassidy were 5 and 0. Monday night, for the first time in 55 years, the Detroit Lions could again be 5 and 0. They host the visiting Chicago Bears. Oh my. Best of luck, Mayor Bing. Go, Lions!

Stop trying to dismantle government

THERE WAS A moment in one of the Republican debates last month when candidate Ron Paul said: 9/11 came about because there was too much government. That statement is flat-out delusional yet not one of the other candidates challenged the Texas congressmans point. I want to challenge Paul and others who think that way. I want to challenge those politicians who seek to unravel the American system of government. Some of the trademarks of this thinking are: a willingness or eagerness to see the federal government default on its debt obligations or shut down for lack of funding; a belief that all taxation is bad, that the less we have of any kind of taxation, the better off we will be; and a stance that suggests the federal government is the source of everything that is wrong with our country. We forget sometimes what other people and countries around the world admire about the United States. Its not our military power thereve been other empires with huge armies and navies. Its not our commercial strength that commands respect there have been and will be other commercial powers as successful as the United States, and as a matter of fact, there is one emerging now China that is bidding to surpass us. If the economic geniuses in the tea party succeed in pushing the American economy into a serious depression, China may just be able to do it. What sets us apart, and what others have admired since our founding, is our system of government: its individual liberties, its limited government with checks and balances, its flexibility and capacity for pragmatic innovation, and the rule of law. Ive talked with people in Europe, Asia, Africa and most recently in the Balkans. Many of them would like many of them have risked their lives to live under a system of government like ours. They find it incredible that theres now a major political group in the United States that wants to unravel our system of government. Proposing or opposing a particular plan, policy, law or aspect of government is legitimate indeed, that kind of criticism and debate is central to our system and is one of the things that makes it so strong. But trying to take down the system itself that is extremist and destructive. Thats what the communists, for example, tried to do. The behavior of many who march in the name of the tea party suggests that they want to turn their back on what made us great. Some of them want to abolish the Federal Reserve, which has been admired around the world as the anchor of sensible monetary policy for a century keeping the banking sector honest and fighting inflation. Others are beginning to question legal as well as illegal immigration, when ours is a country built on the import of tough, innovative talent willing to cast their lot with a young democracy. I dont mind the rough and tumble of politics, and I dont even mind a little loud rhetoric and healthy exaggeration. But if you want to undo Social Security, tell everyone they have to get health care totally on their own, abolish the Federal Reserve and think its OK for the United States to default on its debts, then I say you are trying to take apart the American government. The line the extreme right spouts is an incantation. Its adherents argue that cutting taxes will create jobs, but they dont have any research to support that. The biggest advances in America have come when weve paid attention to the facts and acted pragmatically and innovatively. Were in deep trouble now, and magic potions wont cut it. The presence of a significant movement in our midst that seeks to paralyze or take apart the American government is the single biggest threat today to what we need most: a common effort to adopt practical solutions to the huge economic problems that face us. Before we are done, each of us will have to decide which side we are on.

Gay couples, advocates fight for recognition

By CURTIS TATE McClatchy Newspapers
ASHINGTON Now that the U.S. militarys dont ask, dont tell policy is history, gay rights advocates and their supporters in Congress and the Obama administration are shifting their focus to repealing state and federal laws that define marriage as between one man and one woman.
While six states and the District of Columbia allow same-sex marriage and several other states provide varying degrees of legal recognition to same-sex couples, including civil unions and domestic partnerships, the 1996 Defense of Marriage Act prevents the federal government from recognizing legal same-sex marriages from any state. Rep. David Price, D-N.C., a leading co-sponsor of repeal legislation, said the law will look more and more anachronistic as more states adopt gay marriage. President Barack Obama, while stopping short of a full endorsement of same-sex marriage, told one of the nations leading gay rights organizations last week that he would work to repeal the law. Earlier this year, his Justice Department said it would stop defending it in court. I believe the law runs counter to the Constitution, and its time for it to end once and for all, Obama said at the Human Rights Campaigns annual dinner Saturday in Washington. It should join dont ask, dont tell in the history books. The U.S. Census Bureau announced last week that it had counted 646,000 same-sex couples across the country in 2010. Though one in five of these couples identified themselves as married, many live in states that offer limited or no legal recognition of their partnerships. That complicates many routine matters for gay couples, from child custody to inheritance to immigration. The vast majority of gay people identifying themselves as married actually are married or are in a legal relationship, said Evan Wolfson, the founder of Freedom to Marry, a New Yorkbased gay rights organization. Theyre doing

the best they can under the imperfect law to get legal respect for their committed relationships. Federal law permits states to define marriage any way they choose, and 37 of the 50 states have defined marriage as between one man and one woman. Same-sex marriage opponents would like to keep it that way. In 2008, they successfully overturned courtordered same-sex marriage in California by taking the issue to voters; Proposition 8 passed with 52 percent of the vote. Last year, a federal district judge struck down the voter-approved law in an ongoing case that likely will end up before the U.S. Supreme Court. Were supposed to have a representative form of government where voters ultimately make these decisions, not one where judges make soSee MARRIAGE, Page 6E

Our nanny state government feeds the hunger hoax

TWENTY YEARS ago, hysteria swept through the news media over hunger in America. Dan Rather opened a CBS Evening News broadcast in 1991 declaring, one in eight American children is going hungry tonight. Newsweek, the Associated Press and the Boston Globe repeated this statistic, and many others joined the chorus, with or without that unsubstantiated statistic. When the Centers for Disease Control and the Department of Agriculture examined people from a variety of income levels, however, they found no evidence of malnutrition among those in the lowest income brackets. Nor was there any significant difference in the intake of vitamins, minerals and other nutrients from one income level to another. That should have been the end of that hysteria. But the same hunger in America theme reappeared years later, when Sen. John Edwards was running for vice president. And others have resurrected that same claim, right up to the present day. Ironically, the one demonstrable nutritional difference between the poor and others is that low-income women tend to be overweight more often than others. That might not seem like much to make a political issue, but politicians and the media have created hysteria over less.
COMMENTARY

The political left has turned obesity among low-income individuals into an argument that low-income people cannot afford nutritious food, and so have to resort to burgers and fries, pizzas and the like, which are more fattening and less healthful. But this attempt to salvage something from the hunger in America hoax collapses like a house of cards when you stop and think about it. Burgers, pizzas and the like cost more than food that you can buy at a store and cook yourself. If you can afford junk food, you can certainly afford healthier food. An article in the New York Times on Sept. 25 by Mark Bittman showed that you can cook a meal for four at half the cost of a meal from a burger restaurant. So far, so good. But then Bittman says that the problem is to get people to see cooking as a joy. For this, he says, we need action both cultural and political. In other words, the nanny state to the rescue! Since when are adult human beings supposed to do only those things that are a joy? I dont find any particular joy in putting on my shoes. But I do it rather than go barefoot. I dont always find it a joy to drive a

car, especially in bad weather, but I have to get from here to there. An arrogant elites condescension toward the people treating them as children who have to be jollied along is one of the poisonous problems of our time. It is at the heart of the nanny state and the promotion of a debilitating dependency that wins votes for politicians while weakening a society. Those who see social problems as requiring high-minded people like themselves to come down from their Olympian heights to impose their superior wisdom on the rest of us, down in the valley, are behind such things as the hunger hoax, which is part of the larger poverty hoax. We now have reached the point where the great majority of the people living below the official poverty level have such things as air-conditioning, microwave ovens, either videocassette recorders or DVD players, and own either a car or a truck. Those who believe in an expansive, nanny state government need a large number of people in poverty to justify their programs. They also need a large number of people dependent on government to provide the votes needed to keep the big nanny state going.

A ban on brats? Theyre not kiddin
FTER A Pennsylvania restaurant made headlines this summer by banning children under age 6, the Yahoo! Shine website asked its readers: Are kid-free restaurants a great idea or flat-out wrong? Responders skipped right over the real question to list the many other places where children shouldnt be allowed. Movie theaters. Grocery stores. Airplanes. Disney World. That last one was a joke ... we think. In four days, the site got more than 20,000 comments. The biggest camps by far were the people who are fed up with small people who whine, cry, run around and poop their pants in public and the people whose own children never, ever do any of that. Lost in the din were the normal parents of normal children. All they ask is a little indulgence: Do we have to limit our dining options to Chuck E. Cheese? The no-kids-allowed movement, aka the Brat Ban, is gaining momentum, driven by quiet-seeking adults who want to prohibit children from ev-
erything from concerts to public transportation to Facebook. Demographics tell the story: The United States has more empty-nesters and more childless couples than ever before. One in five women choose not to have children. There is a growing list of options for the child-averse: Adult swim. Theaters that have separate kids and no-kids screenings of the same movie. And yes, kid-free restaurants. Some Whole Foods stores have child-free shopping hours, with activities to keep the kids busy while the grownups forage for cage-free eggs. For a real getaway, theres leavethembehind.com, a website that specializes in kid-free vacation destinations. But sometimes theres no escape. On airplanes, for example. Frequent-flying moms have learned to carry big packages of foam earplugs to share with seatmates. There are few things more unnerving than being trapped in a flying tube with a screaming infant. But babies have to go places, too.

We may not like it, but sometimes we must pull together

ONE OF the many barriers to recovery from a financial crisis is that prudent people end up having to pay for the greed and stupidity of others. Its not fair. But its inevitable. When the federal government launches a big stimulus package, for example, it must sooner or later tax the lucky and the prudent (the only people with money) to pay for it. Similarly, when the Federal Reserve drives interest rates down near zero to keep the economy afloat, savers find that they are earning almost nothing on their nest eggs. Its as if we imposed a tax on prior thrift, and sent the proceeds to reckless banks and profligate consumers. Of course, some in need of help are victims of misfortune. But often its hard to sort the culpable from the blameless. Are homeowners to blame for borrowing too much? What if they didnt understand the loan? Or got laid off? The prudent feel entitled to be resentful, but perhaps they too are merely lucky in their prudence. Ultimately it makes no difference. Theres just no getting around the need to have some people pay for others at times if were to head off a complete economic collapse. As it turns out, thats especially problematic in America. Indeed, even before the financial crisis, Americans have been less willing than voters in other affluent countries to approve social

safety-net programs. Why? Americans traditionally believe that peoples economic troubles are of their own making. In a famous study titled Why Doesnt the United States Have a EuropeanStyle Welfare State?, the economists Alberto Alesina, Edward Glaeser and Bruce Sacerdote pointed out that in Europe, the poor are overwhelmingly considered unfortunate. In America, they are perceived as lazy. The American notion that we each make our own fate is probably useful in motivating us to work hard. But its not so helpful when there is no work. Sadly, our racial and ethnic diversity probably makes us particularly unwilling to bail one another out. Diversity is often seen as an American strength, and there is evidence that it promotes innovation and productivity, which makes all of us richer. But the political scientist Robert Putnam has found that diversity also undermines trust, voluntarism, political engagement and community involvement. Even members of the same ethnic group reported lower trust in more diverse areas. These findings were a source of anguish to Putnam, who struggled to see if they could be
explained by other factors. But they couldnt, and other studies yield similar results. Greater diversity is linked with lower census response rates, for instance, and lower school funding both indicators of civic-mindedness. America is growing more ethnically and racially diverse. It is already a lot more diverse than it was a generation ago. And in all likelihood, this plays a role in our reluctance to help one another with a more extensive social safety net. As Alesina and his colleagues put it, Racial heterogeneity within the United States is one of the most important reasons why the welfare state in America is small. But why dont people like to help those who are different? Its not just racism. Humans probably evolved to make sharp distinctions between those in the clan and those not. Red Sox and Yankees fans do the same, regardless of race. In the long run, intermarriage might turn the American mosaic back into a melting pot. For now, voters are more likely to support the kind of universal programs they perceive as insurance rather than welfare, which is reserved for the neediest. Social Security is an example. We pay for one another. Yet we support it anyway, because were all in it together.

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER
tists had a plate to record the arrival of the neutrinos and a super-powerful telescope to peer (through the Alps!) directly into the lab in Geneva from which they were being fired, the Gran Sasso guys would have heard the neutrinos clanging against the plate before they observed the Geneva guys squeeze the trigger on the neutrino gun. Sixty nanoseconds before, to be precise. Wrap your mind around that one. Its as if someone told you that yesterday at drive time Topeka was released from Earths gravity. These things dont happen. Natural laws dont just expire between shifts at McDonalds. Not that there arent already mysteries in physics. Neutrinos themselves are ghostly particles that travel through nearly everything unimpeded.But that is simplicity itself compared to quantum mechanics, whose random arbitrariness so offended Einstein that he famously objected that God does not play dice with the universe. Aphorisms dont trump reality, however. They are but a frail, poignant protest against a Nature that disdains the most cherished human notions of order and elegance, truth and beauty. But if quantum mechanics was a challenge to human sensibilities, this pesky Swiss-Italian neutrino is their undoing. It means that Einsteins relativity a theory of uncommon beauty upon which all of physics has been built for 100 years is wrong. Not just inaccurate. Not just flawed. But deeply, fundamentally, indescribably wrong. It means that the standard model of subatomic particles that stands at the center of all modern physics is wrong. Nor does it stop there. This will not just overthrow physics. Astronomy and cosmology measure time and distance in the universe on the assumption of light speed as the cosmic limit. Their foundations will shake as well. But there must be some error. Because otherwise everything changes. We shall need a new physics. A new cosmology. Why? Because you cant have neutrinos getting kicked out of taverns they have not yet entered.

THE WORLD as we know it is on the brink of disintegration, on the verge of dissolution. No, Im not talking about the collapse of the euro, of international finance, of the Western economies, of the democratic future, of the unipolar moment, of the American dream, of French banks, of Greece as a going concern, of Europe as an idea, of Pax Americana. I am talking about something far more important. Which is why it probably only made the back pages of your newspaper, if it made it at all. Scientists at CERN (the European highenergy physics consortium) have announced the discovery of a particle that can travel faster than light. Neutrinos fired 454 miles from a supercollider outside Geneva to an underground laboratory in Gran Sasso, Italy, took less time (60 nanoseconds less) than light to get there. Or so the physicists think. Or so they measured. Or so they have concluded after seemingly checking for every possible artifact and experimental error. The implications of such a discovery are so mind boggling, however, that these same scientists immediately requested that other labs around the world try to replicate the experiment. Something must have been wrong to account for a result that, if we know anything about the universe, is impossible. And thats the problem. It has to be impossible because, if not, everything we know about the universe is wrong. The fundamental axiom of Einsteins theory of relativity is the absolute prohibition on speed faster than light. Einsteins predictions about how time slows and mass increases as one approaches the speed of light have been verified by a mountain of experimental evidence. As velocity increases, mass approaches infinity and time slows to zero, making it progressively and, ultimately, infinitely difficult to achieve light speed. Which is why nothing does. And nothing ever has. Until two weeks ago Thursday. Thats when the results were announced. To oversimplify grossly: If the Gran Sasso scien-

How Amanda Knox became Italys scapegoat

AMANDA Knox is nothing if not a good story. The pretty young American who headed to Italy for her junior year abroad, fell for an Italian boy and then landed in the dock with him, accused, convicted and then exonerated on charges of murdering another young woman in a sex game gone wild. Knox was never one of the usual suspects. Her roommate, Meredith Kercher, a British exchange student, was found on the night after Halloween 2007, raped, with her throat slit, in the Perugia apartment they shared. When I went to Perugia in 2009, as Knoxs testimony began, to research a book on the case, I didnt know whether she was guilty as charged, but I was certainly willing to believe it. Either way, it was a textbook example of our never-ending fascination with the supposed femme fatale. Men might batter wives and girlfriends daily, sometimes to death, but their perp walks rarely make it onto Nancy Graces show, let alone through a second cycle of the local news. Foxy Knoxy (as she called herself on her MySpace page), on the other hand, has been a continual headline

grabber from the moment of her arrest. After a few weeks in Perugia, I saw that there was something very wrong with the narrative of the murder that the authorities and the news media were presenting. There was almost no material evidence linking Knox or her boyfriend to the murder, and no motive, while there was voluminous evidence material and circumstantial implicating a third person, a man, whose name one almost never read in accounts of the case. It became clear that it wasnt facts but Knox her femaleness, her Americaness, her beauty that was driving the case. In person, in prison and in the media, Knox was subjected to all manner of outlandish, misogynistic behavior. A prison doctor (he has never stepped forward publicly) tested a sample of Knoxs blood and then informed her she was HIV-positive, prompting Knox to list every man shed had sex with. Authorities passed the names of seven men to reporters from the British tabloid pack, who printed it. Soon thereafter, Knox was told the doctor was mistaken
and she didnt have AIDS. Outside prison walls, Italian criminologists were opining in the media and eventually on the witness stand that because the body had been covered with a blanket, the killer was surely female because such an act was evidence of feminine pieta. Finally, there were the prosecutions operatic closing arguments, repeated almost verbatim in the appeal that ended last week. Knox was a luciferina a she-devil capable of a special, female duplicity. She was dirty on the inside. Always, even from the defense lawyers, the closing arguments ended with appeals to God, in a medieval courtroom with a peeling fresco of the Madonna on the wall and a crucifix hanging above the judge. The prosecutions angel-faced killer had arrived in Italy a few months after turning 20, a high school ugly duckling who blossomed into a beauty in college and was still testing her effect on men. She appeared outwardly confident, but, according to people I interviewed, she was deeply averse to conflict. She was also a compulsive diarist, explaining herself in rounded handwriting filling hundreds of journals. She thought of herself as a writer. But that penchant for unfiltered self-expression hastened
her demise. In her prison diary, a document police handed to reporters after shed scribbled in it for a month, Knox was often upbeat, blithe, clearly a devotee of positive thinking. The reporters who read the diary explained it as evidence of a psychopathic mind. Tabloid reporters from Britain concentrated on the few instances where she appeared to have sex on her mind when she wrote about the fan letters Italian men sent her in jail, for example. They ignored pages she filled with details about being sexually harassed by a prison guard. The young woman who first went to jail at age 20 was a cipher onto whose photogenic, smiling face some Italians could see the archetypal Madonnawhore and, in whose pale eyes, others saw a psychopath. The gaunt, tense woman defending herself on appeal bore barely any resemblance to the fresh, pretty girl photographed kissing her boyfriend outside the murder scene. Only now, having lost the power to bewitch and beguile, has she been revealed as human and also, apparently, not guilty of murder.

MOUNTAIN LAURELS
Mountain Laurels is a regular series of letters from readers conveying thanks to individuals or groups for their support, help or kindness.
n the midst of cleanup from recent flooding, we felt it important to extend a public thank-you to all who offered assistance in our Brookside neighborhood, including city, state and federal officials, the American Red Cross and students of Wilkes University. We especially extend thanks to the Salvation Army for setting up a disaster canteen, providing food, cleaning supplies and comfort throughout the ordeal. Its help was offered based on only one criterion: the need. Its care, concern and assistance became a powerful wind beneath our weakened and broken wings. We always will be grateful.

Wyoming Area Secondary Centers cafeteria: the members of the American Red Cross, teachers, support staff, cafeteria workers and members of the community. Also, we thank all the volunteers, including Wyoming Area students, who helped our residents in their cleanup efforts. Once again, this demonstrates the tight-knit and caring community in which we live, with people reaching out to others at their most vulnerable time. We are proud and honored to be a part of it. The devastation that the flood caused in our community was a humbling experience. Our hearts go out to the wonderful residents of the Wyoming Area community as you rebuild your lives, homes and businesses. Our sincerest regards and best wishes as you fight back.

Also to be thanked are Larksville Mayor Joseph Zawadski, Chief of Police Tony Kopko and his patrol officers, the Luzerne County Sheriffs Department, Fire Chief Andrew Kachman, Dr. Stanish, the Area Agency on Aging caseworkers and the youth who volunteered. The Salvation Army and Commission on Economic Opportunity provided meals every day, and Olive Garden provided meals for one night as did many other generous donors who dropped off pizzas, brownies, fruit, etc. We are thankful to have provided a safe haven to everyone who utilized the 14 American Red Cross shelters during the recent Tropical Storm Lee disaster. The Red Cross typically is first to respond to any natural disaster, local or national, and to provide food and shelter during that disaster to anyone affected. Thanks to everyone who helped to provide a safe haven for the residents at the State Street shelter. It was greatly appreciated.

Volunteer hopes he did enough
n September, Hurricane Irene swept up the East Coast, saturating the land and filling the rivers. A few days later, rain-filled Tropical Storm Lee made landfall in Mississippi and rolled eastward. These two storms tracks met just days apart over the Susquehanna River Valley of Pennsylvania and southern New York. Almost all of Lees rain drained into the river valley, causing widespread flooding. I wanted to help in some way. I called the Scranton headquarters of the American Red Cross and was asked to volunteer at the Wyoming Valley headquarters, on Sherman Street, Wilkes-Barre. I walked in to introduce myself and soon began handing out supplies to hundreds of cars daily. About 11 days later, I told Bob Haber I wanted to know more about Red Cross operations, as Bob was instrumental in setting up the Red Cross relief effort in Penn-
sylvania. He told me that later that day, Sept. 21, he would be transporting the Wayne County area director to the Hazleton headquarters and that I was welcome to join them. When we arrived in Hazleton, I was amazed at the massive relief effort in progress. Before I walked through the parking lot, I saw license plates from almost every state. Bob introduced us to people from across the United States. Trucks were being loaded and departing in every direction. Bob later told us his part in the ground floor of this effort. I was amazed at how much this man has done for many thousands of people who do not know his name. At some time during our visit, Bob became aware I was not registered as an official volunteer, and he asked me to do so, which I did with great pride! A few questions repeat in my head: Did I contribute enough? How could I have done better?

s I watched the large earth-mover trucks roll down Wyoming Avenue with a state police escort in order to secure the floodrelated problems on the soccer fields in Forty Fort, I was applauding the Army Corps of Engineers, Luzerne County Emergency Management officials and the levee authority officials. I thought that they were prepared for an impending emergency. The colonel from the Baltimore Army Corps of Engineers also was here, advising and supporting the efforts that were under way at every problem location during the September 2011 flood. According to a news conference, this colonel had been involved in 30 levee projects, including the construction of our Wyoming Valley levee. Did he not see flooding problems before, during or after all of these levee projects? It has been reported in the newspapers and on local TV stations that it was Mr. Robert Mericle who saved the day. It was Mr. Mericle who saved my home and business and thousands of other homes and businesses. Thank you, Mr. Mericle. You have been, and continue to be, one of the countless heroes who helped save the Wyoming Valley. You, your colleagues and your employees also have been helping to clean up. One of many questions that needs to be asked is this: Where were the Army Corps of Engineers, EMA officials, levee officials and Luzerne County officials, who apparently were unprepared to handle a potential worst-case scenario? We have had too many flood scares to count. The flood problems that residents near creeks and streams have had to endure have been relent-

less. The Valley residents whose homes border the Susquehanna River had been evacuated in 2006, 1996 and 1972. With the known potential threat, why were the warnings to evacuate not more serious this time? If Mr. Mericle did not offer his services, who would have secured the problems that existed at the Midway Shopping Center, the Forty Fort airport, the soccer fields and the Forty Fort Cemetery? Why were those trucks not a part of a convoy for which the Army Corps of Engineers had been prepared? We pay a levee fee to Luzerne County. Isnt this money being used for protection, maintenance, prevention, repairs and problems that might exist before, during or after a flood? Someone also said to me that government sometimes uses private industry to help in times of need. Mr. Mericle should have been a backup. Who would have been available if Mr. Mericle had not offered his services? I was under the assumption that we can and should count on our government in times of crisis.

and sacrifice to help save others. Our national media, to its credit, went through great lengths to bring these matters to light. But what the media showed too little of was the entirely dishonorable, disastrous, immoral and destructive U.S. response to the events of that day in 2001. We didnt see the media citing the fact the U.S. response has caused more than 50,000 fatalities and injuries to U.S. soldiers. (And still, we wonder, for what?) We didnt see the media citing the fact that the U.S. response has caused the needless deaths of more than 600,000 Iraqis. Nor did we see the media citing the fact that our nations invasion of Iraq, as a response to 9/11, has about as much causal relationship as, say, were the United States to attack New Zealand due to global warming. The U.S. military response to 9/11 will rank as one of world historys most destructive, irrational, cruel and sacrificial acts of war ever undertaken by any nation. We saw too little of that sort of reporting by the U.S. media on the 10th anniversary. But we need to; otherwise, the real sacrifice made by the victims of 9/11 will never come to light, and, again, well have learned nothing as a nation.

he 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks was surely a day of mourning for those who lost their lives that day, and a day of remembrance and praise for those who showed great courage
riends from Luzerne County suggested that I comment on the recent flooding challenges of my former home county. They know that I now live in a different portion of the Susquehanna River watershed and that I have operated flood-control systems in the Wyoming Valley. I must commend the emergency officials who handled your recent flooding. If it were not for their high level of competence, any portion of the levee might have failed leading to significant flooding. I cannot imagine the economic impact. And when we look at those communities that chose to avoid flood mitigation within your valley and near where I live in upper Northumberland County we know how devastating the damage can be. I remember how vigilant Kingston was in maintaining the facilities that we managed. But I also know that other communities in the Wyoming Valley at that time were less vigilant, and I always was concerned that the weakest link in the system could lead to devastation. Your current countywide system mirrors a model that proves we can best protect property through cooperation. Many years ago Sunbury took steps to ensure its flood protection. It established a municipal authority and created a fee schedule to fund the costs of the maintenance of the levee system. That was unique statewide, and possibly nationwide, until the Wyoming Valley flood-control officials in cooperation with the county commissioners established a similar fee to accomplish the same objective. In addition, a region-wide, floodcontrol system was initiated that included multiple partners within the Susquehanna
watershed from WilkesBarre to Sunbury. I have heard that some people who were critical of the flood-control fee in Luzerne County might now be complimentary. Regardless of whether one is in the direct path of flooding or merely impacted economically by flooding, the fee is a reasonable security for our economic viability. Communities and people make choices. We grieve for what has happened in West Pittston and downstream in Bloomsburg, Danville and other river communities. I know from my experience in Milton that some community leaders have imprudently objected, in my opinion, to flood protection systems. These choices are very difficult because they impact riverfront properties who some people might view as of historical value. Sometimes property owners experience economic loss or perceived loss from flood-protection takings, but flood protection might be for the greater good. While we cannot protect everything, we can do our best to protect our most valuable assets. By cooperating and understanding the risks we can best meet the challenges of a flooding disaster.

n August 2010, I attended a regular meeting of the Wilkes-Barre Council in regard to the citys intermodal center. In part, I felt that it needed to be safer and cleaner. I also stated that police are never visible, especially between 4:30 and 5:30 p.m., a very busy time at the center. I also felt that it wasnt designed correctly, that there should be two crosswalks: one
Intermodal called unsafe and dirty
at each end. At that meeting I was told that police do patrol the intermodal and you cant add another crosswalk; that would be like crossing the street in the middle of traffic. Just like crosswalk areas are located at specific areas, the same holds true for the intermodal. More than a year later I could count on one hand how many times Ive seen a police officer there, and those were only times when they were called due to a problem. Whats worse is someone was recently killed. Had that second crosswalk been built, maybe things would be different today. As time went by, other problems I addressed were never dealt with: Kids still bicycle and skateboard, and areas are overwhelmed with cigarette butts. Its also far from clean. For starters, check out the elevators that reek of urine. This transportation center now looks like a very old transportation center, kind of like the current Hotel Sterling. If this facility had been built better, maybe there wouldnt be all these problems. If you check out most bus terminals, especially New York, Philadelphia and the previous Martz Terminal, when you enter or exit buses, you enter a building no crosswalks, no need to walk behind a bus. What really floors me is that $28 million was spent on this, money that could have been used elsewhere that would have garnered employment. This would have really helped in todays economy. As any bus commuter can tell you, this was an accident waiting to happen. If these problems arent addressed soon, next time well be reading in the paper that someones child on a skateboard was hit by a bus.

company from the agency that procured the loan. As Solyndra becomes the third solar company to go belly-up this year, laying off its 1,100 employees and leaving the American taxpayer on the hook for more than half a billion dollars, now might be a good time to ask some important questions: Should the federal government be in the business of picking winners and losers in the marketplace? In other words, should companies whose business model conforms to Obamas extreme left-wing ideology get preferential treatment over other companies? And as President Obama tours the country trying to sell his second stimulus package, I think its also fair to ask this: If the first stimulus package was used to create real jobs rather than give kickbacks and sweetheart deals to Obama administration cronies and campaign contributors, would there even be a need to ask Congress to spend another $400 billion to jumpstart the economy?

Writer questions Obama cronyism

hen Barack Obama ran for president in 2008, he appealed to voters sense of disillusionment with Washington. Obamas campaign theme of Change we can believe in assured the American people that he would bring a new kind of leadership to the White House that eschewed the cynical politics of the past in which lobbyists, special interest groups and deep-pocketed campaign contributors were given special consideration. The latest scandal involving the Obama administration and its cozy relationship with the now-bankrupt Solyndra Corp. reveals that nothing could be further from the truth. Solyndra was a Californiabased manufacturer of cylindrical solar panels that served as the flagship for President Obamas green jobs initiative. Solyndras chief investor was an oil billionaire by the name of George Kaiser, who has been a frequent guest at the Obama White House and had contributed more than $50,000 to Obamas presidential campaign. Kaisers relatively small investment apparently was handsomely rewarded after Obama won the election. In 2009, as part of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, Solyndra was given a very low interest rate government loan guarantee in the amount of $535 million! An investigation by the U.S. Treasury Department is under way, examining why Solyndra, which received only a B-plus speculative investment grade from Fitch Rating, received a rock-bottom interest rate of only 1.5 percent when other energy projects have had to pay more than double that rate. There is speculation that Solyndra might have used Enron-style accounting gimmicks in order to hide the true financial condition of the

Dont hold FEMA as political hostage

he recent destruction of property in our area in the aftermath of Tropical Storm Lee is a stunning reminder of the awesome force of Mother Nature and the need for the Federal Emergency Management Agency. Since 1979, FEMA has been a life raft to those people most in need. The organization, as with the majority of its federal counterparts, is far from perfect and certainly needs a form of oversight that Congress provides. Despite its flaws, few would argue that the agency plays a vital role in providing the most needed of resources. For this reason, it is stunning that Congressman Lou Barletta and his Republican caucus used this agency as a political hostage in budget talks that have turned into a shameful orgy of cuts to essential services. I do not argue the need for budget reform, but playing games with affected residents is nothing short of shameful. Congressman Barletta appeared on television, claiming that he is looking for federal aid. But when FEMA was in need of funds following the destruction seen in Joplin, Mo., the congressman said nothing when U.S. Rep. Eric
braham Lincoln dealt with slavery as a law that ruled the slave was not a person, and was thus used, abused and sold as property at the whim of the holder. Lincoln knew both the law and the Bible, saying that a person should neither be a slave nor own one. He spoke of a God ever on the side of right, and prayed daily that he and the nation remain on Gods side and thrive under his righteousness. He spoke of destroying his enemies by making them his friends. A peacemaker, he fulfilled the promise of being called blessed and a son of God as in the Beatitudes revealed by Jesus in the Sermon on the Mount.

n Sept. 25, the article Postal service gets stamped out appeared in The Times Leader. This article attributed the financial condition of the U.S. Postal Service to rises in email, estatements and e-bill payment. While first-class mail volume has undeniably declined in recent years, this is not the true reason for USPS financial situation. The real reason is Congress. Congress has been using the quasi-government postal service as a cash cow for years. USPS funds are considered off-budget, so by transferring costs to USPS and making unreasonable demands for cash from USPS, Congress has billions more to work with. Specifically: The Postal Civil Service Retirement System Funding Reform Act of 2003 shifted $27 billion in military pension obligations from the U.S. Treasury to USPS. In other words, USPS is now responsible for the full pension obligation of any USPS employee who ever served in the military both military and USPS service time not only their time as a USPS employee. Overpayments to the Civil Service Retirement System. Two independent studies have returned estimates of $55 billion and $75 billion, respectively. Overpayments to the Federal Employees Retirement System. The $6.9 billion
figure as of June 2011 is undisputed. In June, USPS stopped paying the employers share into FERS, so that overpayment is now down to about $6 billion. The Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act of 2006 requires USPS to pre-fund retiree health care out to the year 2075, and to do so in 10 years. In other words, Congress is forcing USPS to pay retiree health care for employees who have not yet been born. No other federal agency is required to pre-fund, nor do any do so. The total of all the above: Between $130 and $150 billion. It was the 2006 PAEA that drove the nail into the coffin. Absent that one law, USPS would have posted a profit since 2006, would have billions in the bank and be wellpositioned to deal with the drop in first-class mail. But Congress has sucked USPS dry. Theres no more water in the well. HR 1351 was introduced on April 5 by Rep. Stephen Lynch, D-Mass. If enacted, it would correct the above without requiring a single penny of taxpayer dollars. In short, HR 1351 would: 1. Require the Office of Personnel Management within six months to accurately calculate the CSRS overpayment and transfer that amount within 15 days to the USPS retiree health benefits fund. 2. Direct the OPM to use $5.5 billion of the FERS overpayment for the 2011 retiree health care pre-funding requirement (due Sept. 30, which will have passed by the time you read this). Competing proposals to HR 1351 exist. Some will gut the USPS, closing thousands of post offices and processing facilities, and placing hundreds of thousands of employees out of work. This new postal service would offer substantially lower service and substantially higher prices, but Congress would get to
keep the money it has stolen from the USPS. The future of the USPS is up to you. Do you want todays Postal Service that delivers six days a week to every address in the United States and has the worlds lowest postage rates? If so, contact your congressman/congresswoman and request their support of HR 1351.

Volunteers lauded for sheltering pets
he recent flooding and devastation caused by Tropical Storm Lee brought hardship and loss to many Pennsylvania communities. In response to the storm, the Pennsylvania State Animal Response Team, through its network of volunteers in county animal response teams, opened numerous temporary animal shelters, many in conjunction with the American Red Cross. Our county teams are made up of local volunteers who help their communities. Locally, teams in Luzerne, Wyoming and Bradford counties provided care for many animals for up two weeks, while the families with whom they resided dealt with the effects of the storm. On behalf of our board of directors, we recognize and thank our many volunteers who assisted their communities during this emergency situation. We also thank PetSmart Charities and the Wilkes-Barre PetSmart for its significant donation of equipment and supplies, which were helpful to our effort.

riage. Rep. Tammy Baldwin, D-Wis., an openly gay member of Congress whos running for the U.S. Senate, said while she hoped that Ros-Lehtinens support would encourage other Republicans to back the repeal of an unjust law, last years midterm elections dealt a significant setback to that effort. The repeal bill has 125 co-sponsors in the Republican-majority House of Representatives and 29 in the Democratic-led Senate. Its a steep hill to climb. Thats not to say we wont climb it, Price said. Repeal is going to be a tough political fight. Baldwin said her main focus wasnt on gay issues, but the economy. This is a tough time for our country, she said. My constituents dont care that Im gay. In the meantime, gay and lesbian couples still face a patchwork of state laws. Roughly 50,000 same-sex couples have gotten married in the six states that allow it: New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Connecticut, Massachusetts and Iowa, plus the District of Columbia. Other states give same-sex couples the

sex couples would take for granted. She is as much his parent as I am, Bollinger said. For other couples, the lack of marriage rights reinforces longstanding social stigmas against gay people. Beverly Fletcher of Fort Worth, Texas, who married her partner of 20 years in Connecticut, said her family has struggled at times against barriers and institutional challenges in a state that doesnt recognize their marriage. When her now 12-year-old daughter was in elementary school, another mother protested to the school that Fletcher should not be allowed to accompany the children on field trips, Fletcher said. The mother wanted her banned from the classroom, though the school supported Fletcher. We have spent our entire adult lives together, my wife and I, Fletcher said.

cial judgment calls, said Andy Pugno, the general counsel for the Proposition 8 Defense Fund and Protect Marriage Coalition, who said he thinks the Supreme Court will uphold the law. Same-sex marriage opponents point out that theyve won in every state where the issue has been put on the ballot. But polls show that could be changing. In North Carolina, where voters will consider a constitutional amendment banning same-sex marriage next spring, an Elon University poll shows that 56 percent oppose the ban, while 39 percent support it. Leaders in Washington are changing their minds, too. Last month, Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen of Florida became the first Republican to back the repeal of the federal Defense of Marriage Act. Though she voted for the law in 1996, a decade later she declined to support a federal constitutional amendment to ban same-sex mar-

benefits of marriage without the name, but many couples wont be satisfied until they can get married. Right now its basically a second-class citizenship, said Washington state Rep. Laurie Jinkins, a Democrat and one of six openly gay members in the Washington legislature who are crafting a strategy for the passage of a marriage law, possibly as early as next spring. Washington states voters approved a domestic partnership law in 2009. Federal and state marriage laws pose special challenges for samesex couples with children. According to the Census Bureaus American Community Survey, 115,000 such couples are raising children.
In Lexington, Ky., Jessica Bollinger and her partner of 17 years, Cathy Wieschhoff, have an11-yearold adopted son, Lucas. Bollinger, who is the adoptive parent, said that if they lived in a state that recognized same-sex marriage, there would be more security for her son. Bollinger said she and her partner have indicated in their will and spoken with family members to assure that if she died, her partner could take custody of their son and be the legal parent. But the law wouldnt automatically grant Wieschhoff custody, something that married opposite-

But others said it mattered less how the government defined their families. Paul Wolford and Howard Freedland, both 48, of Davis, Calif., were married in June 2008 during the brief window before Proposition 8 when gay couples in California could legally do so. Wolford, a preschool teacher, and Freedland, an attorney, are parents to an 8-year-old daughter and a 6-year-old son. Wolford believes Americans are generally more accepting of gay couples and harbor fewer stereotypes about them. While Wolford isnt happy that his marriage wouldnt have been permitted after Proposition 8 passed a few months later, hes decided not to vociferously campaign to repeal the measure. My greatest activism is just living a normal life, he said.

Does your big sister ever dress you up and give you a makeover? Does your little brother barge in and mess up your plans? Do you drive each other crazy but love each other just the same? If any of that is true, you and your sibs are a lot like Max and Ruby except theyre furry, long-eared, animated rabbits. Max and Ruby, I think, really offer the reality of siblings. They have that unconditional love for each other, but they dont always have to agree with each other, said Patti Caplette, director of Max and Ruby: Bunny Party. The family show will come to the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts at 6:30 p.m. Wednesday. Based on a Nickelodeon show created
by author Rosemary Wells, the show stars 3-year-old Max and his 7-year-old sister, Ruby. Ruby is the older sister. Shes in school, and she goes to Bunny Scouts. Shes very smart and thinks she has all the answers, Caplette said in a telephone interview. Max is a boy boy. He loves mud. He loves getting dirty. He loves to find worms. If Rubys playing dolls with her friends, hell instinctively come by with a noisy fire truck, just to bug them. In the Bunny Party show, Max and Ru-
by are planning to celebrate the arrival of a super-duper special guest, Caplette said. They take a bus ride to a general store. They look for the most perfect present. They meet all kinds of characters, and all kinds of fun things happen. Magic happens. Oh, yes, we have magic. Highlights of the show include Maxs larger-than-life toys, some robots, a giant spider, a ballerina, four amazing vaudevillian folks who sing and dance and the scene during which Ruby and her best friend, Louise, treat Max to a beauty makeover, complete with curlers and make-up. It appeals to kids from 2 to 92, The lovable rabbits Max and Ruby might Caplette said. But well let you in if remind you of a brother and sister in your own life. youre 93.
Since beginning her own pop music group, 2BIG, when she was 12 years old, Julianne Hough has gone through more changes than David Bowie. Shes earned a living as a Dancing With The Stars hoofer and a country-music songbird. With Footloose, she can add leading lady to her list of accomplishments. A remake of the 1984 hit musical, the movie about a town where boogie-ing is prohibited gave Hough the chance to strut her stuff as a dancer and an actress. Houghs work on the flick (due in theaters Friday) so impressed the producers of Rock of Ages that she recently nabbed a starring role in the upcoming songfest about a hair-metal howler (Tom Cruise) and a waitress-turned-stripper (Hough). Alec Baldwin, Paul Giamatti, The show Catherine Zeta-Jones, Mary J. Blige and was a great Bryan Cranston co- stepping star. stone. I mean, I am having the it did everytime of my life, says Hough, 23. It seems thing for my like everything hap- career. It gave pened for a reason. I me this inworked really hard credible expowhen I was growing up. I paid my dues. sure. Now it feels like the Julianne Hough stars have aligned. I feel like every decision Ive made has been the right one. Im kind of freaking out at the moment. Its crazy. Dancing, country crooning, pop singing, acting is there anything Hough cant do well? Im absolutely awful at sports, she notes. Youd think being a dancer that Id have good coordination, but I dont. I am the worst tennis player you will ever see. Im so bad, its embarrassing. Theres nothing embarrassing about Houghs ascent up the show-biz ladder. Fresh off back-to-back Dancing With The Stars wins, shes become a hot property in Hollywood thanks to Footloose. The remake, directed by Craig Brewer, recycles the story of a new kid in town named Ren McCormack (Kenny Wormald) who is shocked to discover that a local minister (Dennis Quaid) has outlawed dancing. The ban went into effect after the alcohol-related death of five high-school seniors including the ministers son. Hough plays the preachers daughter Ariel, a spitfire who longs to dance as much as Ren does. Its only a matter of time before Ariel and Ren are kicking off their Sunday shoes together. The new Footloose is more gritty and less cartoony than the original, which starred Kevin Bacon, Lori Singer and John Lithgow. But some film fans wonder why a 1984 movie needs to be remade in the first place. I was skeptical, too, says Hough who, coincidentally, grew up near where the original Footloose was shot. When I think of remakes, I think of bad remakes. Why remake something that you love so much? But I think our movie is very relevant and, lately, there havent been that many teen movies with great messages, like we had in the 80s. So it was cool to make this movie very honest and real for a new generation.

HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19). At first, you will have a rather straightforward reason for getting to know someone. The more you learn, however, the less the initial purpose seems to matter. You will be, quite simply, curious to find out more. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You take your responsibilities as an earthling seriously. You will show the love and respect you feel for nature by admiring and caring for the various life forms in your environment. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You would normally be inclined to make a prediction as to what you might accomplish and what will likely unfold as a result. Not now. You lead with a sense of wonder. Who knows where the day will flow? Only time. CANCER (June 22-July 22). The dimensions above you seem to invite you to share their lightness of being to whatever degree possible on this earthly plane. You certainly feel freer, as though life is suddenly fresh. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You approach others with your free-flowing conversation. You also have a terrific sense of when to engage and with whom. Knowing when to retreat will be equally useful. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You realize how futile and silly it is to expect people to think and behave just like you do. Your loved ones adore you, in part because they sense that you truly want them to live fully, though not in any particular way. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You see what you create as a part of yourself and therefore bestow a special kind of beauty in all of your work. When you meet with interference, you see it as a fortuitous influence. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Appointments and errands are in store, all in preparation for an upcoming event. While getting everything in order, your mind is abuzz with anticipation. This is going to be fun! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Youll do your own thing, and you wont care whether anyone notices. Youre making your own rules now, at least socially speaking. And youll cause some excitement in the process. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Everyone changes. You cannot predict exactly how, either. To love someone truly and completely means to love him or her through the inevitable changes of life. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Whatever you concentrate on evolves quickly, taking up greater amounts of space and energy. Its like you can grow things with the power of your thinking. So definitely concentrate on things you actually want to grow. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You can feel someone psychically tugging at you. This person probably just wants to be closer to you, or perhaps he or she needs something so intangible from you that they dont even know what it is. TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Oct. 9). Youve dared to dream before, but this year theres something even stronger about the visions you conjure for yourself. You have every intention of bringing them to reality, and you most certainly will. A change in your work lends greater balance to your life. New family additions happen in April. Capricorn and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 2, 18, 24, 36 and 21.

Granddaughter too young to withstand criticism

Dear Abby: My mother watches my two children before and after school and during the breaks. She is a caring person, but she is also very critical of my daughter. (Shes fine with my son.) Mom constantly tells my daughter she needs to lose weight or exercise more, or her hair looks stringy, or she isnt dressed properly. My daughter is only 9. My mother did this to me when I was younger, and it made me feel I could never live up to her standards. How should I approach her about this? I dont want my daughter to feel inadequate. Shes a beautiful, intelligent little girl. Frustrated in Missouri Dear Abby: My siblings have noticed my distant, odd behavior toward one of my brothers. This sibling and I have a history of incest. He raped me repeatedly for years, and I want nothing to do with him. When the family gathers, one or the other of us declines the invitation if the other one is going to be present. I have told one sibling, We just dont get along old stuff, ya know! and left it at that. I want to keep the reason to myself. I feel I may be pushed for a better answer. Shouldnt old stuff be enough of a reason? Should I tell or not? Should I Or Shouldnt I? Dear Should I?: A person who repeatedly rapes someone for years is a predator. This wasnt two kids experimenting; it was sexual assault. How do you know he didnt prey on other siblings or cousins? You should have sought counseling about this years ago, and its still not too late. Once you do, Im sure youll find the strength to stand up for yourself and speak out.

Ghost Hero lightens up crime series

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 9, 2011 PAGE 5F
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
By BRUCE DeSILVA For The Associated Press
faworldofstrongwomenandtheircomplex relationships with one another doesnt draw you into Alice Hoffmans brilliant new novel, The Dovekeepers, read it for Hoffmans fine sense of narrative, history and detail as she shares the story of four women who come by various paths to Masada. Masada is the mountain in the desert where 900 Jews held out for months against Roman armies in ancient Israel. Hoffman introduces her four main characters at a leisurely pace, first Yael, whose mother died in childbirth and whosefatherresentsherforit.Revkaisabakers wife who saw her husband and daughter slain, and now cares for her daughters two sons. Aziza, daughter of a warrior, is raised as a boy and is skilled in fighting. And Shirah is a woman of magic and medicine who keeps her own secrets while helping other women handle theirs. Each woman is broken and hurt in some significant way. Yael seeks the love of a strong man in the face of her fathers rejection. Revka carries failure with her, because she blames herself for the death of her daughter and her grandsons fate. Aziza is torn between the world she was born to, and the life of a warrior where she must hide who she really is. Shirah keeps the biggest secret of all hiding her love for a man she can never publicly have. Hoffman skillfully weaves their lives and stories together as all the women make the arduous journey to Masada. We came like doves across the desert. In a time when there was nothing but death, we were grateful for anything and most grateful of all when we
awoke to another day. The Dovekeepers immerses readers in an ancient world, where nothing is easy not breathing or walking, not eating or sleeping, no part of daily life happens without chores and challenges associated with that task. Coupled with the difficulty of daily life is the persecution of the Jews. Revka recalls seeing her daughters death: The men fell upon Zara at the fire. I heard her voice the way you hear a bell, it rings and sounds above all other noises. I ran to her and one of the intruders threw me to the side, for to him I was no more than a dried locust ... I charged at them, screaming, but they were four and brutally strong ...While two of them held Zara, tearing at her garments, the other two made quick business of me. Such a spare description of such a horrid event makes it that much more real. Hoffmans novels often rely on symbols and magic,mysticismandtotems;Dovekeepersis no different. But she weaves these devices so intricately into the lives of Yael, Revka, Aziza and Shirah that readers pay less attention to the mystic elements and more to the events that tie these women to one another. The men in this novel are not given the depth and breadth of the women, in part because the women live in such a misogynistic time and place. Yet there is respect for Revkas son-in-law, who is nearly unhinged with grief. Josephus, a 1st-century historian, said that two women and five children survived the siege of the Roman armies. So its clear that not all four of these remarkable women will live. But each of them will live on in the minds of readers.
The on-again, off-again partnership between Lydia Chin and Bill Smith, the private detective-heroes of 11 of S.J. Rozans crime novels, is on again. In Ghost Hero, a mysterious man hires Ghost Hero (Mithem to innotaur Books), by vestigate a S.J. Rozan: rumor that previously unknown paintings by Chau Chun, a Chinese painter killed in the Tiananmen Square uprising, are about to surface in New York. But soon they learn that another P.I. is looking into the same thing and that unscrupulous art dealers, criminal gangs, an academic expert on Chinese painting and even the Chinese government all have a stake in the game. They also learn that their client has been lying to them from the start. Rozans heroes, first-generation Chinese-American Chin and middle-American Army brat Smith, allow her an enormous range of voice and tone within this successful series. In last years On the Line, for example, Chin is abducted and Smith, who narrates the story, races against time to get her back. The mood is grim and the pace intense, giving the book the feel of movies like Liam Neesons 2008 kidnapping thriller, Taken. But in Ghost Hero, narrated by Chin, the mood is light and the story is laced with humor, reminiscent of the 1973 Paul Newman-Robert Redford classic, The Sting. Chin and Smith approach their case by running a confidence game designed to deceive everyone, including their client. Some of the books funniest moments feature Smith posing as a Russian mobster, complete with a swagger and an accent that is by turns authentic and hilarious. The ethnic differences between Chin and Smith give this series an added dimension. Chins mother, who suspects Smith is interested in her daughter for more than business reasons (and he is), calls him the white baboon. Rozan uses such tensions to explore issues of diversity and cultural politics without ever getting heavy-handed. Chin and Smith fans will find Ghost Hero one of the better books in the series.

New Legoland park in Florida will keep the kids busy
By MITCH STACY Associated Press
A Lego model of downtown New York greets visitors to Legoland Florida in Winter Haven, Fla. The second Legoland in North America, Legoland Florida is on the site of the old Cypress Gardens. Opening day is Saturday.
IF YOU GO
What: Legoland Florida. Where: Winter Haven, Fla., about a 45-minute drive from Orlando When: Opens Saturday. Hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. most days; check online calendar for occasional closures and longer hours. Tickets: $65 for ages 13 and older and $55 for ages 3 to 12 and 60-plus. More info: www.florida.legoland.com or 877-350-5346
INTER HAVEN, Fla. The first thing youll do upon entering Legoland Florida is walk up to the nearest oversize Lego model and touch it: Is it really made out of those little plastic bricks that are as much a part of American childhood as skinned knees and ice-cream cones?
We dont have special pieces made; they are standard brick sizes, the standard colors that kids can buy in the kits at the store. We dont modify, change or do anything different. Because we want to show what you can do with them. This is the ultimate toy box. The new Florida park is the largest of the Legolands, covering 150 acres on the site of the old Cypress Gardens, which was the states first theme park when it opened in 1936. Known for its lush gardens and water-ski shows, Cypress Gardens fell into disrepair and financial trouble over the years, changing hands several times and getting battered by a hurricane before it closed for good in 2009. Then Legoland came to town. Legoland planners incorporated the gardens into the new park, as well as the water-ski shows on Lake Eloise and the bleachers and pavilions on its banks. Legolands version is a pirate-themed water-ski and stunt show that will be staged several times daily. Sixteen mature live oak trees were moved and replanted as planners tried to maintain the Old Florida feel of the place. A huge, majestic banyan tree, planted in 1939, is in itself worth a stroll through the gardens, thick with lovely native Florida foliage. Also left over
The answer is yes. And thankfully, theyre all glued together to withstand abuse from the rambunctious kids and curious parents who will be visiting Floridas newest theme park, opening Saturday. Situated in little Winter Haven, 45 minutes from Disney and the other Orlando-area attractions, Legoland Florida is aimed at children from 2 to 12. Those in the upper half of that demographic will get the most out it, marveling at the cool Lego models scattered throughout the park and taking full advantage of the opportunities to get their hands on them, visit a castle, shoot lasers and ride four roller coasters that range from mild to mildly wild. (The Legoland folks call them pink-knuckle rides.) But theres a special area for toddlers, too, and parents will certainly linger in the amazing Miniland USA area, which recreates the skylines of New York and other big cities, as well as Florida landmarks, all constructed from Legos. The Miniland is the heart of this and the other four Legoland parks around the world, including one near San Diego. Every Lego model you see in the park is made with standard Lego pieces, says Bill Vollbrecht, the self-described Lego nerd who designed the park.
A bust of Albert Einstein, made from Legos, sits outside the entrance to Lego Technic at Legoland Florida.
from Cypress Gardens days were two of the four roller coasters including the only wooden coaster at a Legoland park anywhere and Island in the Sky, a 100-foot rotating platform ride that offers a birds-eye view of the entire park. We came in there and said, Wow, you cant buy this from scratch, says Ian Sarjeant, the senior project director. The challenge for us was how do we take our standard castle and clusters that we have in every other park and incorporate them into this while keeping some of the existing buildings? We fixed what we could; we tore down what we couldnt; we added new; we modified old. Says Vollbrecht: What first started out as challenges became amazing opportunities. The park is divided into 10 zones, including Fun Town, where families can get a closer look at how Legos are made; Lego Kingdoms, with a whimsical, interactive ride through the castle; Lego City, where children can drive a car by themselves on
scaled-down streets; and the Imagination Zone, where they can build and mess with more big Lego models. Some of the coolest models outside of the Miniland are the life-size African animals that populate the Safari Trek ride in the Land of Adventure area. Of course, the park conveniently serves as one big commercial for Lego toys, and parents probably wont get away without plunking down the credit card for souvenirs. To facilitate that, the park has helpfully included one of the largest Lego stores in the world, and other retail opportunities abound throughout. Concessions are available everywhere, including the signature Legoland dessert, Grannys Apple Fries. The first Legoland opened in Billund, Denmark, in 1968. Parks in Windsor, England; Carlsbad, Calif.; and Gunzberg, Germany, followed. A new park in Malaysia is scheduled to open next year.
