lives in one of two house fires that raged in
the city Tuesday.
The victims, who have not been identi-
fied, were pulled unconscious by firefight-
ers fromthe thirdfloor of 37 Pine St. inthe
citys East End neighborhood shortly after
5 p.m. Tuesday.
Firefighters performed CPRon the men
just outside the still-
burning building; one in
the backyard and one in
the street. Both were
transported by ambu-
lance to Wilkes-Barre
General Hospital, but
were pronounced dead
shortly after arriving at
the hospital at 5:30 p.m.,
acting Luzerne County
Coroner Bill Lisman
said. Carbon monoxide
intoxication was ruled the cause of death.
Lisman did not release the names of the
victims because their families have not
been contacted. Neighbors identified the
victims as middle-aged men of Hispanic
descent named Jos and Willy.

HAZLETON An early-
morning blaze that de-
stroyed an apartment build-

door and left about 24 peo-
ple homeless on Wednesday
was intentionally set.
Hazleton Deputy Fire

Jones said at the scene
that officials considered the
blaze suspicious because
firefighters responded to a
fire on the porch of the
apartment building just
before 11 p.m. Monday. He
said someone had set fire
to a chair on the porch.

WILKES-BARRE On Mon-
day, all five City Council mem-
bers said they had questions re-
garding the waiving of permit
fees for the demolition of the Ho-
tel Sterling and were looking for-
ward to discussing the issue.
At Tuesday nights work ses-
sion, none of the council mem-
bers brought it up.
The ques-
tionhasnt been
raised to coun-
cil, said Coun-
cil Chairman
Mike Merritt.
Asked what
he meant by
that, Merritt
said Mayor Tom Leighton has
not yet offered a recommenda-
tion on whether the city should
waive the estimated $50,000 in
permit fees as requested by the
Luzerne County Council.
Merritt said council could
waive all, part or none of the fees.
Amajority of council members
interviewed Monday said they
would oppose dropping the fee,
which would be paid by the coun-
ty. They cited the citys financial
investment in the Sterling
about $300,000 as the reason.
The County Council can opt to
provide the $1million for demoli-
tion, mothball the building for
possible future development or
do nothing. The county has a
stake in the property because of
$6 million in community devel-
opment loans for the project.
The city, which condemned
the 114-year-old structure, could
be forced to come up with the
demolition cost should the coun-
ty decide to revoke its offer to fi-
nance the demolition. City Con-
troller Kathy Kane informed
council of a movement to sup-
port state legislation that would
clarify the law as it applies to ar-
bitration awards and to munici-
pal pensions, binding arbitration
and unfunded state mandates.
Kane gave a packet of informa-
tion for each council member
from the Coalition for Sustaina-
ble Communities. She said she
will meet with council and the
administration to discuss the
concerns in detail.
On Thursday, council will
vote:
On the appointments of Dan
Lavery to the city Housing Au-
thority and Christine Jensen, for-
mer city human resources direc-
tor, to the Planning Commission.
To enter into a 30-month
lease agreement with FAHS Con-
struction group, Binghamton,
N.Y., for 5,000square feet of prop-
erty under the Veterans Memo-
rial Bridge. Leighton said the
company will make repairs to the
bridge this spring.

cient widows for the police de-
partment headquarters for

WILKES-BARRE A city
man who police say slashed a
teen boy in the head with a ma-
chete will stand trial next
month, a county judge said
Tuesday.
Junior Alberto Diaz-Reyes,
25, of South Grant Street, ap-
peared in Luzerne County
Court on Tuesday on charges of
aggravated assault, simple as-
sault, disorderly conduct and
harassment in the June 2011 in-
cident.
Judge David Lupas said he
will issue court papers schedul-
ing a trial for sometime in April.
Assistant District Attorney
William Finnegan said Diaz-
Reyes attorney, Christopher
ODonnell, is waiting for docu-
mentation in the case to review.
Police allege Diaz-Reyes
swung a machete that slashed a
16-year-old boy in the forehead
during an argument in the area
of East Northampton and South
Grant streets.
The boy was taken to Geisin-
ger Wyoming Valley Medical
Center, Plains Township, where
he was treated for lacerations to
his forehead, injuries to his left
eye and a fractured skull, police
said.
According to court papers,
Diaz-Reyes was drinking beer
while sitting on steps to another
house at East Northampton and
South Grant streets when the
boy and his friends walked by,
and Diaz-Reyes started speak-
ing to the boy in Spanish.
An argument erupted when
the boy told Diaz-Reyes he did
not speak the language. Diaz-
Reyes and the boy shoved one
another as the boy tried to walk
away.
Diaz-Reyes ran after the boy,
pulling out a machete that he
swung at the boy, striking him
in the forehead and eye, the
complaint says.
Diaz-Reyes is currently jailed
at the Luzerne County Correc-
tional Facility on $10,000 bail.
A request to reduce his bail
amount had been previously de-
nied by a judge.

WILKES-BARRE A Lu-
zerne woman charged with
using another womans credit
card to make several purchases
in 2010 was sentenced Tuesday
to two years probation.
Annette Billings, 46, of Ben-
nett Street, was sentenced on a
single count of identity theft by
County Judge Tina Polachek
Gartley. Billings pleaded guilty
to the charge in December and
paid $1,161 in restitution Tues-
day. A remaining $161 must
still be paid, Polachek Gartley
said, and 25 hours of communi-
ty service completed.
WILKES-BARRE The
sentencing of a Pittston man
convicted of several charges
relating to a case in which
prosecutors say he had an
inappropriate relationship with
a young girl has been delayed
until April.
Albert Chase, 33, who was
scheduled to be sentenced next
week on three counts of invol-
untary deviate sexual inter-
course, and one count each of
rape of a person less than 13
years old and aggravated in-
decent assault will now be
sentenced on April 17, a senior
judge said.
Senior Judge Kenneth Brown
granted a request by Chases
attorney, Nanda Palissery, to
delay the sentencing to give an
expert time to review a report
by the state Sexual Offenders
Assessment Board.
WILKES-BARRE A Pitt-
ston Township man facing new
charges in relation to firing a
gun into a tax office in early
January has asked a judge to
reduce his $100,000 bail.
Michael Kozloski, 28, was
originally charged in January
with related charges, but those
charges were later dismissed.
New charges, filed on Feb.
28, by Pittston Township police
include aggravated assault,
discharging a firearm into an
occupied structure, person not
to possess a firearm, simple
assault, reckless endangerment
and indecent exposure.
A preliminary hearing is
tentatively scheduled for
March 13 for Kozloski, his
attorney Jonathan Ursiak said
in court papers, and asked a
judge to reduce his bail amount
because it is excessive and
violates his constitutional
rights.
COURT BRIEFS
WYOMING -- A man who
stopped to ask for directions at
a state police barracks was ar-
rested on evidence of drunken
driving.
State police at Wyoming said
Raymond J. Rock, 67, of Ed-
wardsville, drove his 2005 Che-
vy Malibu into the parking lot of
their Wyoming Avenue barracks
at about 4:30 Monday afternoon
and pulled to the back of the
building, where patrol cars are
parked.
Rock parked in the space
reserved for the Troop P area
commander, got out of his vehi-
cle and knocked at the rear
door, which is restricted to state
police personnel only. After
getting no answer, he walked to
another building on the proper-
ty and spoke with members of
the Troop P Vice Unit, who had
watched Rock pull into the
parking space, state police said.
Troopers determined he was
under the influence of alcohol
because he allegedly had a
strong odor of alcohol on his
breath, was unsteady on his feet
and didnt know exactly where
he was, state police said.
Rock said he was looking for
his accountant, state police said.
He was taken into custody
and transported to Wilkes-Barre
General Hospital for a blood-
alcohol test. Charges are pend-
ing those test results, state
police said.

DALLAS TWP. The
supervisors first work
session Tuesday ended
with the townships two
fire companies agreeing
to work out their bound-
aries with Luzerne
County 911.
Dallas Fire andAmbu-
lance addressed the
board about disputed
territories within the
township after two for-
mer supervisors did not
approve suggestions
made by the fire compa-
nies and Luzerne Coun-
ty 911.
In August, 911 ap-
proached the township
to redistrict the dis-
patching territories due
to a new computer-aid-
ed mapping system.
Andrew Zahorsky of
LuzerneCounty911said
the county wanted
boundary clarification
on streets both fire com-
panies shared.
The map was final-
ized in August, and Za-
horsky said 911 started
using the new technolo-
gy last week.
Conrad Higgins of the
Kunkle Fire Co. said the
fire company is willing
to work out the issues,
though he felt Kunkles
territory has been de-
pleted over the last 50
years he has been a part
of the company.
In other business, the
board discussed chang-
es that will need to be
made to the zoning ordi-
nance to comply with
state Act 13, governing
the natural gas and oil
industries.
Jack Varaly, the town-
ships planning consult-
ant, said the new state
law supersedes local
zoning laws. The town-
ship approved compre-
hensive regulations on
natural gas activities in
October as two compa-
nies pursued gas facili-
ties there.
Varaly said there are a
few areas the law does
not address, such as
buffer zones and lot siz-
es, the township could
use to strengthen its or-
dinance.
Supervisor Liz Martin
suggested the township
protest the law by not
complying, but Solicitor
Thomas Brennan said
the townships power is
given by the state, and
lawsuits could arise
from such an action.

Prison guard on trial
A Luzerne County jury heard testi-
mony Tuesday in the case of a county
prison guard charged with selling
drugs to another guard.
Christopher Walsh, 29, of Pittston,
faces three charges in the case. Testi-
mony is expected to
continue through
today.
On Tuesday, jurors
heard several record-
ed conversations
between Walsh and
another guard, Jo-
seph Ciampi, about
grand jury subpoe-
nas, testimony and how investigators
were tipped off to the drug activity.
Ciampi offered testimony to the
grand jury during the investigation
and had resigned from his position at
the county prison as a guard. Ciampi
has not been charged.
Walsh was charged in March 2011
along with three other prison work-
ers, following a 13-month probe.
After a grand jury hearing, prosecu-
tors learned Walsh allegedly sold
cocaine to corrections officers.

Disciplinary actions taken
Disciplinary actions were taken by
state departments against 171 licens-
ed or commissioned professionals
and organizations across the state in
February.
Two of the measures were levied
against area professionals, according
to the Department of State:
Mark H. Bell, of Shavertown,
was indefinitely suspended for no
less than 18 months retroactive to
June 28, 2011, by the state Board of
Medicine because he is unable to
practice medicine and surgery with
reasonable skill and safety to patients
by reason of illness or addiction to
drugs or alcohol.
David Lloyd Naugle, of Hazleton,
Luzerne County, was temporarily
suspended by the state Board of
Optometry, pending a hearing, on the
grounds that his continued practice
of optometry within the state may be
a danger to public health and safety.

Luzerne County union representative
Paula Schnelly urged county council
Tuesday to further examine the Lu-
zerne-Schuylkill Workforce Investment
Board, an outside county agency that
handles job placement and training pro-
grams.
Representatives of the board, known
as the WIB, spent more than an hour
briefing council on the boards work dur-
ing Tuesdays work session as part of on-
going updates by outside boards and au-
thorities.
Schnelly said
WIB employees
have received ex-
cessive pay in-
creases and enhan-
cements to their
benefit packages
that could reduce
funding available
to service the un-
employed.
She tried to play
an audiotape of a
conversation at
the end of a Janu-
ary 2010 WIB
meeting that was obtained through a
public information request, but Council
Chairman Jim Bobeck said council
members must review the tape before
determining if it is permissible to play it

WILKES-BARRE For the
second consecutive year, May-
or Tom Leighton has named a
City Hall employee as Grand
Marshal of the 32nd annual St.
Patricks Day Parade.
City Clerk Jim Ryan was
stunned when Leighton made
the announcement at a City
Hall press conference Tuesday.
I knowthere have been a lot
of right-to-know requests from
the media to find out who this
years grand marshal would
be, Leighton said, joking. But
even the city clerk didnt know
who we selected.
Leighton said Ryan was cho-
sen for his strong Irish heri-
tage, as was the case inhis pick-
ing Marie McCormick, city ad-
ministrator, as the 2011 Grand
Marshal.

HANOVER TWP. Blood spatter
covered a blue Hyundai outside a Ma-
rion Terrace apartment after Lisa
Scoffone allegedly was stabbed mul-
tiple times by her boyfriend, Joseph
Dunaj, on Tuesday.
Township police arrested Dunaj, 27,
outside 1601 Mark Drive as Scoffone
was leaning over the vehicle just after
11:30 a.m.
Scoffone was rushed by township
paramedics to Geisinger Wyoming
Valley Medical Center, Plains Town-
ship, where she underwent surgery,
Police Chief Al Walker said.
Walker said Dunaj was jailed at the
Luzerne County Correctional Facility
on a probation violation. Charges are
expected to be filed against Dunaj
pending an investigation, Walker said.
Police allege Dunaj stabbed Scof-
fone inside their apartment.
Court records indicate Dunaj is
serving a two-year probation sentence
that was imposed by a Luzerne Coun-
ty judge on May 6 on a criminal tres-
pass charge when he smashed a win-
dow at the same apartment on Nov.
20, 2010.
Scoffone filed a protection from
abuse order against Dunaj in January
in the apartment complex, said the
mother was outside honking her cars
horn and getting no response fromthe
daughter.
(Scoffones) mom stopped me to
help her check on this Lisa girl, she
said she wasnt answering, Bryant
said. I walked in and yelled and she
(Scoffone) came down from upstairs.
Bryant said she left and later return-
ed to find police at the same apart-
ment.
I feel bad; I dont even know these
people. With this happening around
here, its kind of scary, Bryant said.
Bryant said the victims mother was
returning a young boy to the apart-
ment Tuesday morning. The apart-
ment is adjacent to a small playground
in the apartment complex.
A front window was smashed and
blinds were damaged in the 1601Mark
Drive apartment.
Township police detectives David
Lewis and Dean Stair were at the
apartment interviewing witnesses and
collecting evidence immediately after
the incident.
County Detective Dan Beky arrived
and spent a short time inside the
apartment before going to police
headquarters in an attempt to ques-
tion Dunaj.
2010 that he violated seven times, ac-
cording to court records.
Earlier in the morning, Lorinda
Bryant said she was walking to a bus
stop and was asked by Scoffones
mother to help her check on Scoffone.

tionship with the members of the
City of Hazletons police, he said.
I live in Hazleton, Ive raised six
kids in Hazleton, I think its a phe-
nomenal place. Ive always had a lot
of respect for the police department
(here) and Imactually very excited
to be the chief of the department,
he said.
Yannuzzi said DeAndreas ap-
pointment must be ratified by at
least three city council members on
Thursday. If council approves,
DeAndrea will start work Friday
and will be sworn in at 10 a.m. Mon-
day.
Responding to a report that the
mayors top pick for the post was
Jerry Speziale, the former sheriff of
Passaic County, N.J., who acted
alongside Richard Gere in the 2009
police drama Brooklyns Finest
and resigned in 2010 to take a
$200,000-a-year job with the Port
Authority Police Department, Yan-
nuzzi said that was inaccurate.
Yannuzzi said he offered the job
first toDeAndrea, but DeAndrea ini-
tially refused.
He asked if he could do anything
else and I said, Yes, help me when I
put the ad in and, when we get the
resumes, you rank them. So Frank
did that. I guess going through that,
talking to me, talking about the po-
lice, the challenges, it got his adren-
aline going, Yannuzzi said.
Yannuzzi said he and DeAndrea
narrowed a list of applicants down
to six and settled on Speziale, but
negotiations fell through.
When that happened, Frank
askedif hecouldbeconsideredandI
said, Give me your resume. He did,
and of course I knew that was my
original choice.
So I asked himand he accepted,
Yannuzzi said.
Yannuzzi said Hazleton has an
outstanding police department,
but, using a sports analogy, said its
comprisedof a lot of goodathletes
who are not a team yet because
they dont have the quarterback to
lead them through it.
This is mychoice for the quarter-
back: Frank V. DeAndrea Jr., he
said.

a person that I have admired
and respected for years,
Leighton said. He is stead-
fast, dedicated, and the polar
opposite of the Irish stereo-
type.
Leighton said Ryan has
been an anchor of his neigh-
borhood who wears his Irish
pride on his sleeve.
Ryan, with his wife, Jean-
marie, and children Bridget
and Daniel, was shocked
when his name was called.
Im speechless; I had no
clue, Ryan said. Its a tre-
mendous honor and I hope to
uphold the honor of all the
previous grand marshals.
Leighton noted past honor-
ees include former Gov. Ed-
ward G. Rendell, former City
Administrator James F. Co-
nahan and Jack and Cece
McCarthy.
The mayor said Ryan is the
first child, and only son, born
to Edward J. Ryan and Mar-
cella P. Ryan, in Syracuse,
N.Y. He said Ryan grew up in
a large Irish family of 30 first
cousins.
One of Ryans first cousins
is world famous. Tom Kenny,
the voice of cartooncharacter
SpongeBob SquarePants, is
the godson and first cousin of
Ryan.
In a Times Leader story in
2009, Kenny saidRyanwas14
when he stood as his godfa-
ther.
Obviously he has utterly
failed in his responsibilities,
Kenny joked in the story.
Ryans ancestors hailed
from County Longford, Ros-
common, andCounty Tipper-
ary.
Growing up in the Tipper-
ary Hill neighborhood, the
family was never far from
their Irish roots, Leighton
said. The area boasts of the
only traffic light in the world
where you will find the green
light over the red, in respect
for these roots.

adults and underprivileged
youths, and this work was previ-
ously handled by employees of
the countys now-defunct Work-
force Investment Development
Agency.
A state hearing examiner or-
dered the county in June to re-
hire the employees and pay them
lost wages and benefits. The rul-
ing stemmed from an unfair la-
bor practices claim arguing the
county played a role in the out-
sourcing and failed to negotiate
the outside contracting of union
jobs as required by a collective
bargaining agreement.
The payment of past wages
was estimated at $1 million at
that time, and Schnelly, of the
American Federation of State,
County & Municipal Employees,
or AFSCME, said the amount
has increased since then.
County commissioners had
appealed the ruling, but a deci-
sion has not been publicly is-
sued.
Schnelly said she has not re-
ceived a decision on the appeal
and noted she has forwarded in-
formation to the FBI about the
WIB that she believes warrants
investigation.
County council members ap-
point members to the 33-person
board that oversees the agency.
WIB representatives had left
Tuesdays meeting by the time
Schnelly spoke.
Martha Herron, chair of the
WIB, told council the agency
was facing multiple deficiencies
and on the verge of losing all
government funding three years
ago. It is nowmeeting all govern-
ment performance standards
with no audit deficiencies.
The agencys executive direc-
tor Lucyann Vierling said the
agency, one of 22 WIB zones in
the state, oversees two Career-
Link offices in Luzerne County
in addition to other programs.
The agency received $9.06 mil-
lion in funding, mostly federal,
in the 2010/11 fiscal year, but
that amount has decreased to
$7.4 million this fiscal year, she
said.
In other business, county
Manager Robert Lawton an-
nounced county Security Chief
John Robshaw and Chief Engi-
neer Joe Gibbons have come up
with a plan to reopen county-
owned Moon Lake Park daily
from the second week of April
into November. Workers from
both departments will open the
gates to allowaccess. The park is
open weekends only for now be-
cause of security staff layoffs.
COUNCIL
Continued from Page 3A
Some lawmakers and law en-
forcers say a statewide ban on
texting while driving that goes
into effect Thursday is only a first
step in reducing distracted driv-
ing and will be difficult to en-
force. Theyadvocate a banonany
hand-held cellphone use.
Approved by legislators in the
fall, the newlawwill take effect at
12:01 a.m. Thursday and makes
texting while driving a primary
offense carrying a $50 fine. A pri-
mary offense means police offi-
cers can pull over a driver for no
other reason than they see them
texting.
But how can an officer know
for sure that someone is texting
rather than dialing their phone?
Thats an issue some local po-
lice chiefs said their officers are
sure to encounter.
Well have to cross that bridge
when we come to it, said Keith
Keiper, chief of the Kingston Po-
lice Department.
He said officers will consider
extended time spent looking at a
phoneas a cluethat textingis tak-
ing place.
Its going to be hard to do,
Keiper said, adding that he ex-
pects court challenges to some
tickets.
State Police Commissioner
Frank Noonan, a Clarks Summit
native, noted that texting is a se-
rious problem and we are hoping
that we can educate citizens on
the dangers of texting while driv-
ing and prevent future acci-
dents.
Noonan echoed Keipers com-
ments about howofficers will de-
termine when to initiate a traffic
stop.
Our troopers will attempt to
use observations of the driver
while the vehicle is in motion to
determine if traffic stops are war-
ranted. An example might be the
motorist continues to manipu-
late the device over an extended
distance with no apparent voice
communication.
State Rep. Eddie Day Pashin-
ski, D-Wilkes-Barre, said one
should pull over before sending a
text, email or using the web.
According to the state Depart-
ment of Transportation, distract-
ed driving played a role in14,000
crashes in Pennsylvania in 2010
and 68 people were killed.
Text messaging while driving
has skyrocketedover the past few
years and the trend is increasing,
according to AAA. The auto club
reported that its research found
21 percent of drivers admitted
text messagingwhile driving. Ac-
cording to the Virginia Tech
Transportation Institute, a driv-
ers crash risk is doubled when
looking away from the road for
two or more seconds.
Michele Drago, a 22-year-old
Larksvilleresident andasenior at
Misericordia University, does not
text while driving but said she
has seen firsthand the dangers it
poses.
She was a passenger in a vehi-
cle when the driver was texting
and the vehicle almost veered off
the road. She said that while my
friends dont do it as much as
they used to its still done. And
the law, which she fully supports,
might scare some into stopping
but it will likely still occur.
(People who text while driv-
ing) are sneaky about it. Theyll
be more sneaky than they are
now, Dragosaid. She agrees that
police have a tough task ahead.
Its going to be a hard law to
enforce, Drago said.
Pennsylvania will become the
35th state to ban text messaging
for all drivers. Its a good first
step, said Wilkes-Barre Police
Chief Gerry Dessoye, who also
noted it will be difficult to know
at a glance whether someone is
texting or simply dialing their
phone.
While Keiper said the texting
banhelps, ultimatelyheis hoping
the legislature will approve a
complete ban on hand-held cell-
phone use while driving.
Provisions that would have
done just that were taken out of
the texting ban bill before final
passage.
The texting while driving ban
will be difficult to enforce in its
current form because police may
not knowor be able to prove that
the driver was textingas opposed
to dialing the phone. We need a
hand-held cellphone use while
driving ban. But, unfortunately,
as hardas it was toget the texting
ban passed, I just dont think that
will happen any time soon, said
Rep. Phyllis Mundy, D-Kingston.
NEW STATE L AW Beginning at 12:01 a.m. Thursday, texting while driving will be illegal in Pennsylvania
Drivers must keep fingers off phone keypads
AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER
Beginning Thurs-
day, this activity
will be illegal.
Texting while
driving will be a
primary offense
carrying a $50
fine. A primary
offense means
police officers can

son than they see
them texting.
PennDOT reports
distracted driving
played a role in
14,000 crashes
statewide in 2010
and 68 people
were killed.
There have been at least two bills
this legislative session that, if
approved, would outlaw using
cellphones while driving:
House Bill 896 was unanimously
approved by the House on May 10
and was sent to the Senate, where
it remains in that chambers Trans-
portation Committee. That bill
sought to address distracted
driving, which would encompass
cellphone use while driving and
any other activity that takes atten-
tion away from the road.
House Bill 330, which would ban
all hand-held cellphone usage
while driving was referred to the
House Transportation Committee
on Jan. 31, 2011, and has not been
considered by the committee to
date.

Kingston repeals old shared
police services ordinance
KINGSTON -- Council voted Monday
night to repeal an ordinance regarding
shared police services between King-
ston and Edwardsville.
Mayor James Hag-
gerty said the ordi-
nance essentially
granted Kingston and
Edwardsville police
officers equal author-
ity and standing in
either borough, re-
gardless of the shared
municipal border.
Henry Mattern, Kingstons municipal
solicitor, said the ordinance was unnec-
essary, as state law allows officers to
enter other municipalities for official
police business.
Haggerty said Kingston officials were
unaware that the ordinance was even in
effect. He had only learned about the
agreement, which dates back to 1991,
when he was consulted by another
lawyer in his capacity as a private at-
torney.
He also raised the issue of the differ-
ing hiring practices used by the two
communities.
Also, Municipal Administrator Paul
Keating said the municipality had been
awarded a federal SAFER grant of
$149,000, which will go toward two
years of funding the salary of a new
firefighter. The new hire will serve to
keep the department at 29 members as
one firefighter is slated to retire later
this year.
Keating also said Kingston is likely to
be awarded a combined federal and
state grant through the K-Route pro-
gram, which will fund 80 percent of the
estimated $900,000 that it will cost to
repave Pierce Street from the Veterans
Memorial Bridge to Wyoming Avenue.
Keating estimates work on the streets
intersections will be completed in the
fall of 2012 with the actual repaving of
the street itself following in spring
2013.
Councilman Jack Schumacher pro-
vided his fellow council members with
photographs of the roadroad bridge
over Pierce Street that he feels show
the deterioration of the structure as
well as a lot of overgrowth and litter.
Other council members who live in
the vicinity of the bridge echoed his
concerns.
The council next meets at 7:30 p.m.
April 2.

Fairview crews are ready
to start repaving projects
FAIRVIEW TWP. -- Township Road-
master Russell Marhold said on Mon-
day that the road crews already had
finished patching roads for the spring
and were gearing up to start repaving
projects.
The news came just before Secretary
and Treasurer Barbara Wasiakowski
said that Luzerne County Community
Development officials were cutting
their yearly budget for road improve-
ments by about $50,000. Supervisors
will receive $75,000 as opposed to an
expected $125,000.
Marhold said the township will try to
replace two community roads this
season.

Plymouth Twp. soil test
findings are revealed
PLYMOUTH TWP. -- Township Engi-
neer Joe Mullen presented findings of
soil tests done on Tilbury Terrace Road
at Mondays supervisors meeting.
There are roughly 60 homes on the
road, which was badly damaged by
flooding last July and September.
Mullen, of Pennoni & Associates,
explained how his company bored
holes into the road and the slope below
to determine the stability of the area.
Mullen said the friction of the sat-
urated, sliding earth, which is mostly
sand and gravel, and the weight of
vehicles, caused the road to collapse.
This was a classic failure, he said.
Chairperson Gale Conrad said an
alternate road would be built for use
while Tilbury is being repaired.
The board next meets in regular
session at 6 p.m. April 2.

them. Damage caused by the sewer

Syrias president defiant
S
yrias president defied mounting
international pressure to end the
year-old crackdown on an uprising
against him and said Tuesday he was
determined to go on fighting what he
called foreign-backed terrorism.
After a powerful American senator
called for airstrikes on Syria, President
Barack Obama said unilateral U.S.
military action against President Bash-
ar Assads regime would be a mistake.
The United States said it is propos-
ing a new United Nations Security
Council resolution demanding an end
to violence in Syria, first by govern-
ment forces and then by opposition
fighters. Russia and China, powerful
allies that have blocked a Security
Council resolution against Syria, made
clear they were still standing by the
regime in Damascus.
WASHINGTON
Afghan transition stressed
President Barack Obama said Tues-
day the furor in Afghanistan over the
accidental burning of Qurans under-
scores the need for the U.S. to transi-
tion out of the war there.
Obama emphasized that the U.S. still
plans to end its combat role in Af-
ghanistan by the end of 2014. The
drawdown will be a central topic of
discussion at the NATO meetings in
Chicago in May.
Obama said in a news conference
that the recent accidental burning of
Muslim Qurans by U.S. forces and the
protests that followed underscore the
challenges in Afghanistan and why the
U.S. is drawing down its combat role
there.
Thirty people died in the Quran
protests, including six American
troops.
HARRISBURG
All-electronic tolls favored
A new report bolsters the prospect of
the Pennsylvania Turnpike converting
to an all-electronic tolling system.
The Pennsylvania Turnpike Commis-
sion posted the report on its website
Tuesday, but officials stressed that any
actual conversion is at least five years
away.
The study by an outside consultant
recommends replacing toll booths with
overhead gantries on travel lanes.
They would electronically deduct tolls
from vehicles with E-Z Pass trans-
ponders and photograph license plates
of other vehicles so bills could be sent
to the registered owners.
Commission spokesman Carl DeFe-
bo said that, if the commission ap-
proves all-electronic tolls, that firm
also could oversee the implementation
of the new system.

Small World writer dies
How do you sum up the work of
songwriter Robert B. Sherman? Try
one word: Supercalifragilisticexpiali-
docious.
The tongue-twisting term, sung by
magical nanny Mary Poppins, is like
much of Shermans work both com-
plex and instantly memorable, for child
and adult alike. Once heard, it was
never forgotten.
Sherman, who died in London at age
86, was half of a sibling partnership
that put songs into the mouths of nan-
nies and Cockney chimney sweeps,
jungle animals and Parisian felines.
Robert Sherman and his brother
Richard composed scores for films
including The Jungle Book, The
Aristocats, Mary Poppins and Chit-
ty Chitty Bang Bang. They also wrote
the most-played tune on Earth, Its a
Small World (After All).
Shermans agent, Stella Richards,
said Tuesday that Sherman died peace-
fully in London on Monday.

TEHRAN, Iran Efforts to find a dip-
lomatic solution to Irans disputed nucle-
ar programappeared to get a boost Tues-
day when world powers agreed to a new
round of talks with Tehran, and Iran gave
permission for inspectors to
visit a site suspected of secret
atomic work.
The two developments
counteredsomewhat the crisis
atmosphere over Irans nuclear
program, the focus of talks in
Washington between Presi-
dent Barack Obama and Israels visiting
prime minister.
Speaking at a news conference, Obama
said he sawa windowof opportunity to
use diplomacy instead of force to resolve
the dispute over Irans nuclear program.
He said he is focused on sanctions al-
ready imposed on Iran and on interna-
tional pressure to keep Tehran from de-
velopinga nuclear weapon. Iranians need
to show they are serious about resolving
the crisis, he said, adding that his policy
is not one of containment but of stopping
Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.
The U.S. and its allies say Iran is on a
path that could lead to the production of
a nuclear weapon. Iran in-
sists its programis for ener-
gy production and other
peaceful purposes.
EU foreign policy chief
Catherine Ashton said the
five permanent members of
the U.N. Security Council
and Germany had agreed to a newround
of nuclear talks with Iran. Previous talks
have not achieved what the powers want
an end to uranium enrichment on Ira-
nian soil. The last round ended in failure
in January 2011. Ashton said the EU
hopes Iran will now enter into a sus-
tained process of constructive dialogue
which will deliver real progress.

CRI SI S Major powers OK new round; Iran to allow inspection of suspect site
WASHINGTON More
than 70 percent of students in-
volved in school-related ar-
rests or cases referred to law
enforcement were Hispanic or
African-American, according
to an Education Department
report that raises questions
about whether students of all
races are disciplined even-
handedly in Americas schools.
Black students are more
than three times as likely as
their white peers to be sus-
pended or expelled, according
to an early snapshot of the re-
port released
to reporters.
The findings
come from a
national col-
lection of civil
rights data
from 2009-10
of more than
72,000 schools
serving 85 per-
cent of the na-
tion.
The Educa-
tion Depart-
ment said it
would release
more details
Tuesday.
The sad fact is that minor-
ity students across America
face much harsher discipline
than non-minorities, even
within the same school, Edu-
cation Secretary Arne Duncan
told reporters.
Duncan said some school of-
ficials might not have been
aware of inconsistencies in
how they handle discipline,
and he hoped the report would
be an eye-opener.
Raul Gonzalez, legislative
director at the National Coun-
cil of La Raza who taught
school in New York, said zero
tolerance policies in both
schools and the court system
disproportionately affect black
and Hispanic kids. He said the
policies have created a system
that takes kids out of school
and ultimately leads them into
prison where they become
hardened criminals.
Weve lost control of all
judgment here, and its almost
always a black kid or a Hispan-
ic kid affected, Gonzalez said.
According to the Education
Departments report, 42 per-
cent of the referrals to law en-
forcement involved black stu-
dents and 29 percent involved
Hispanics, while 35 percent of
students involved in school-re-
lated arrests were black and 37
percent were Hispanic.
Black students made up 18
percent of the students in the
sample, but they were 35 per-
cent of students suspended
once and 39 percent of stu-
dents expelled, the report said.

nursinghome where a 31-year-
old man died after a meth lab
fire that injured several other
people was cited for 18 viola-
tions last year, including not
providing adequate care, ac-
cording to state records ob-
tained Tuesday.
The victim was not a pa-
tient or employee of Park
HavenHome inAshtabula, au-
thorities said as they sought
to uncover how the meth lab
was set up in a residents room
and how long it went unde-
tected.
Police said charges were ex-
pected against two men who
were also burned in the fire.
The fire broke out Sunday
night, east of Cleveland, au-
thorities said.
Three residents and two
non-residents were hospital-
ized, including Shaun War-
rens of Ashtabula, who died
Monday at a Cleveland hospi-
tal. An autopsy was planned
Tuesday.
Police believe two visitors
and one Park Haven resident
knew about the meth lab, Po-
lice Chief Robert Stell told the
Star Beacon of Ashtabula.
The homes alleged viola-
tions in a December survey in-
cluded not providing ade-
quate care, failing to investi-
gate how a resident was in-
jured and not properly
responding to residents com-
plaints about missing proper-
ty.
An earlier review of the fa-
cility, in June, resulted in cita-
tions for two violations.

STATE COLLEGE Law-
yers in the Jerry Sandusky case
were ordered Tuesday to ap-
pear in court early next week to
address how much information
state prosecutors should be
compelled to disclose before
the start of trial on child sex-
abuse charges.
Judge John Cleland sched-
uled oral argument on the de-
fense request for additional de-
tails to be held
Monday morn-
ing in the Cen-
tre County
Courthouse in
Bellefonte.
Sandusky
lawyer Joe
Amendola said
last week he wanted the attor-
ney generals office to provide
more details about the allega-
tions to help him prepare pos-
sible defenses based on an alibi,
the statute of limitations, dou-
ble jeopardy or other grounds.
Sandusky, 68, is a former
longtime assistant football
coach at Penn State.
He is confined to his home as
he awaits trial on 52 criminal
counts that involve 10 boys
over 15 years. He denies the al-
legations.
Cleland wants jury selection
to begin May 14, although the
two sides continue to hash out
pretrial issues.
Next weeks hearing centers
on the bill of particulars
sought by Amendola that
would provide more details
about the times, dates and loca-
tions where crimes allegedly
occurred, the names of people
who were present or nearby,
and special events such as
football games on the days of
the purported crimes.

House transportation bill
seen as bad public policy
T
he recent commentary by U.S. Rep.
Lou Barletta, R-Hazleton, about the
transportation bill (Investing in in-
frastructure will help shore up economy,
Feb. 29) certainly sounded like a great
accomplishment. Closer examination
reveals Lou is not telling us everything.
The House of Representatives Natural
Resources Committee approved what
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood calls
the worst transportation bill Ive ever seen
during 35 years of public service. LaHood
spent 14 years in Congress, serving as a
Republican representative from Illinois. He
told a news outlet that Congress always
came together in the past to support trans-
portation, but HR 7 is the most partisan
transportation bill hes ever seen.
For 30 years, federal transportation
legislation has allocated a small portion of
the national gas tax to transit funding. But
under the new five-year bill just passed by
the House committee, funding for public
transportation systems will disappear.
Thats a bad public policy for all of us.

Early screenings crucial
in colon cancer prevention
E
very year during March, medical pro-
fessionals, patients, family members
and others observe National Colorectal
Cancer Awareness Month a time when
concerned individuals raise awareness
about the incidence of colorectal cancer.
The message is straightforward: There are
simple steps we can take to prevent and
diagnose this disease.
Colorectal cancer is the second-leading
cancer killer in America, claiming more
than 40,000 lives every year. According to
the Pennsylvania Department of Health,
the states colorectal cancer incidence and
mortality rates are higher than the nation-
al average (57.9 per 100,000 compared to
U.S. average of 52).
Fortunately, however, colorectal cancer
is one of the most preventable and easily
detected cancers if screening occurs
early enough. Regular colorectal screen-
ings can detect polyps that can be removed
before they become cancerous. A recent
study in the New England Journal of Med-
icine was consistent with the value of
colonoscopy for this purpose, demonstra-
ting a 50 percent decrease in colon cancer
deaths in patients who had adenomatous
colon polyps removed.
Whether youre male or female, follow
these guidelines, based on the U.S. Preven-
tative Services Task Force recommenda-
tions, beginning at age 50 (age 45 if Afri-
can-American):
Have a fecal occult blood test yearly;
or
Have a fecal occult blood test every
three years combined with a flexible sig-
moidoscopy every five years; or
Have a colonoscopy every 10 years.
If you have a personal or family history
of colorectal cancer, colorectal polyps or
inflammatory bowel disease, talk with
your health care professional about earlier
screening
No matter what your age, you should
know colorectal cancer risk factors, symp-
toms and your family history. Make screen-
ing tests part of your healthy life. Talk with
your doctor about the colorectal screening
options available, using the above list as a
guide.
Colorectal cancer is highly preventable,
treatable and often curable when detected
early. Do the right thing for yourself and
your family: Get screened early.

Writer believes mandate
will hurt service members
P
resident Barack Obamas push of his
unconstitutional health care mandate
is now taking a shot at military person-
nel and veterans.
Obamas plan calls for increases between
30 percent and 78 percent in Tricare an-
nual premiums for the first year. After that,
the plan will impose five-year increases
ranging from 94 percent to 345 percent
more than three times current levels in
hopes it will push service members out of
Tricare and into Obamacare.
Not included in these cuts are civilian
unionized defense employees.
How are we letting this happen?

Burning of Quran required
no apology from Obama
S
omething is wrong in this world. The
National Endowment for the Arts can
support a photographer who places a
crucifix in urine and calls it art. Yet Unit-
ed Nations/American troops accidentally
burn a copy of the Muslim Quran (which
reportedly had been desecrated by prison-
er extremists writing notes on the pages),
and 10 people, including four Americans,
are killed.
President Obama degrades America by
apologizing. Where are we going? There
were no apologies to America for the
deaths (murders).

Poor management blamed
for downfall of USPS
I
previously challenged postal manage-
ment to not close the mail processing
center in Scranton and to increase ser-
vice, not decrease it. By announcing that
not only the Scranton facility will close,
but 11 other processing facilities, including
Reading, Lancaster, Williamsport and Erie,
the U.S. Postal Service management has
failed miserably to provide any evidence
that its mission is to save the USPS and
not dismantle it from within.
As I have seen in the last five years, bad
and subversive management decisions
have pushed the USPS to the precipice of
nothingness.
I recently read a letter to the editor
about cutting costs, referring to USPS
commercials. Id like to expand on where
costs can be cut.
Pay for performance bonuses: How can a
company projected to lose $14 billion still
hand out bonuses, spot awards, etc.?
Detail assignments: When a valued
member of the postal service management
team fills in a vacancy in another facility
and area, not only do they receive salary
and compensation, but also per diem such
as travel, meals and, if far enough, hotel
accommodations. How much is this cost
annually?
A football field-sized behemoth known
as the Flats Sequencing System: The USPS
is into this machine roughly $1.4 billion,
and it has been referred to as a boon-
doggle. It isnt known when, or even if,
there will be cost savings.
Second ounce free: This was recently
announced so that major mailers essential-
ly will pay the one-ounce price for up to
two ounces of mail. How can a corporation
thats bleeding money have giveaways like
this?
Keep in mind, since 2004 the USPS has
had a decrease of 135,909 employees, but a
net increase of 822 headquarters positions.
Why are they necessary?
These are some of the facts that our
elected representatives should be looking
into and have investigated externally.
When these closings and consolidations go
into effect, it will be a sad day for what
was once the U. S. Postal Service.
Im afraid when the dust settles history
will not be kind to not only the interests
who destroyed the Postal Service, but also
to those who stood idly by and let it hap-
pen.

TWOULDBE easy to call
the gridlock in Congress
laughable, except for the
real impact it has on our
everyday lives suchas the gri-
dlock on highways.
Case in point is the massive
transportation spending bill, a
confusion of practical and po-
litical priorities that lawmak-
ers seem incapable of turning
into clear federal policy. Since
a five-year transportation fund-
ing plan expired in 2009, Con-
gress has managed only a se-
ries of nine stopgap measures
to keep federal gasoline taxes
flowing back to the states.
Lawmakers are in the throes
of their latest attempt at a re-
placement plan, but the House
and the Senate have strayed,
seemingly oblivious tothe date
this month when the tempora-
ry highway bill expires.
Of the two, the Senate is
closer to having its act togeth-
er. It forged a bipartisan ap-
proach to a two-year bill that
would continue many current
programs, including the use of
gas taxes to support public
transportation. Thats impor-
tant federal policy of 30 years
standingthat must be retained.
Still, the Senate bill has been
hit with a blizzard of distract-
ing amendments, including
one to strip mandated contra-
ceptive coverage from the fed-
eral health care law. Please!
The House, meanwhile,
weighed in with a stinker of a
transportation bill that would
have scrapped the guaranteed
transit support and helped pay
for expanded road projects
through more offshore drilling,
including in the Arctic Nation-
al Wildlife Refuge.

M
OONLAKEPARK
the nearly 650-acre
Luzerne County
campground and
recreation area in Plymouth
Townshipdeserves better than
to fall into further disrepair
while, for yet another season, its
future remains murky.
The place should swarmwith
visitors onwarmspringdays. By
summer, its double Olympic-
sized swimming
pool ought to draw
oodles of area resi-
dents seeking cool
relief. Instead, most
park amenities have
been idled in recent
years because of the
countys ongoing
budget problems. As
recentlyasthisweek,
public access has
beenrestrictedtoSaturdays and
Sundays, from 9 a.m. to 4:30
p.m. Moon Lakes gates will be
latched on weekdays.
Fortunately, two state law-
makers hope to intervene, res-
toring at least some activities
and ensuring lake access for
trout season. State Rep. Gerald
Mullery and state Sen. John
Yudichak, whose constituents
have voiced concern about the
park, intend to muster support
from state agencies, such as the
Pennsylvania Fish and Boat
Commission.
Their stated aim: a partner-
ship between county and state.
Perhaps the best outcome,
however, would be for Moon
Lakes ownership to one day be
transferred, ending any county
control. This oasis probably
could be better protected and
maintainedas a stateparkor the
property of another conserva-
tion-minded institution.
Twoyearsago, LuzerneCoun-
tys commissioners appeared
ready to plunder the park for po-
tential revenue from the natural
gas drilling industry. Historical-
ly, few of this countys leaders
seemed to fully grasp the poten-
tial of its outdoor recreational
assets, including
the splendid Sev-
en Tubs Natural
Area in Plains
Township.
Dont expect
significant
change under the
newly installed
Luzerne County
Council. Its mem-
bers understanda-
bly are fixated on the countys
bottom line, and few of them
seem inclined to devote dollars
toward nonessential pro-
grams.
At the risk of sounding like
the Lorax, Dr. Seuss magical
character who speaks on behalf
of the trees and this month is
making an appearance in movie
theaters, the fate of our natural
resources rests largely in the
hands of people like you.
Unless you voice concern for
theparkandoffer your ideas, the
status quo probably will prevail.
Unless you tell elected leaders
that you value places such as
Moon Lake, these spots likely
will languish. Unless you do
something, nothing much will
be done.

OUR OPINION: COUNTY PARK
Moon Lake worthy
of better upkeep

some activities and

shals determined that the
structure fire was a set fire
and is under investigation.
Jones said the apartment
building was a total loss. The
second and third floors on
the 135 side of the building
collapsed into the first floor
and the third floor of the
other half collapsed into the
second floor, he said.
Hazleton Code Enforcement
Officer Richard Wech said the
building presents an immi-
nent danger and the owner,
Sonny Patel, who also owns a
Pantry Quik around the cor-
ner, had contacted a demoli-
tion contractor.
Our biggest concern right
now is just to alleviate it,
Wech said. He expects the
building will be torn down
within the next day or two.
Chris Lehman said his
parents, Louis and Rose Fe-
dullo, were forced from their
home next door, which sus-
tained heavy damage.
From what we were told
by the fire chief and some
Hazleton police officers, they
suspect it was arson simply
because someone set a chair
on fire on the porch the night
before, Lehman said.

the burned apartment building is

housing to downtrodden per-
sons who often cannot find hous-
ing elsewhere.
Kathy Evans, a neighbor and
Boices sister, said Jose and Willy
hadlivedinthe house for three or
four years. They and other resi-
dents of the house drank alcohol
frequently, and their activities
sometimes drew complaints
fromthe senior citizens high-rise
across the street, but they we-
rent bad neighbors, Evans said.
None of them were really bad
people, she said. They like to
drink and sometimes they make
noise, but theyre not bad people,
really. My dad has been taking
them in for years, because no-
body else would help them.
They were people nobody want-
ed.
Second major fire in day
Theblaze, first reportedat 4:55
p.m., was the second major struc-
ture fire city firefighters battled
Tuesday. In the early-morning
hours, firefighters extinguished
fires at two adjacent, vacant
homes on Academy Street.
The causes of both fires are un-
der investigation.
Wilkes-Barre Fire Chief Jay De-
laney described an enormous
amount of flames shooting from
the front of the Pine Street apart-
ment building when firefighters
arrived and learned from bystan-
ders the two men were still
trapped inside.
Firefighters entered the third-
floor apartment through a rear
door accessed from an outside
staircase at the back of the build-
ing andcarriedthe limpbodies of
the two men down the staircase.
Delaney performed CPR on one
of the men himself.
Five additional residents of the
building, a house divided into
several apartments, also escaped
fromthe first floor prior to the ar-
rival of firefighters.
Aneighbor whodidnot wishto
be identified said she, a family
member and a resident of the
building named Billy rushed into
the home and helped carry the
first-floor residents out.
Billy, who did not want to
speak to media or give his full
name, tried to help the men from
the third-floor apartment as well,
but was turned back by the
flames, she said.
James Johnson, 48, was one of
the residents who escaped the
fire. He said he has lived in the
home on and off for three years.
I was downstairs and all of a
sudden the fire came from up-
stairs it was coming down,
Johnson said. I came running
out.
Red Cross aiding victims
The Red Cross of Wyoming
Valley will provide shelter and
other aidtothevictims of thefire.
The Red Cross will put the fire
victims up in a hotel for at least
three nights, provide monetary
aid for them to buy essential
goods to satisfy their immediate
needs and make psychological
counseling available.
All victims lost medications in
the fire, Red Cross volunteer Mi-
na Hontz said, and finding re-
placements for themwas the Red
Cross first priority Tuesday
night.
Firefighters brought the fire
under control within about 30
minutes, and completed their
work at the house by 8 p.m.,
though the fire remains under in-
vestigation by state police fire
marshals and city fire investiga-
tors. Delaney would not com-
ment on the possible cause of the
fire while it is under investiga-
tion.
The flames were confined to
the buildings second and third
floors. Boice and Evans said the
buildings second floor was va-
cant.
No firefighters were injured.
Earlier Tuesday, fire destroyed
two vacant houses at 27 and 31A-
cademy St., while firefighters
saved Bob Moirs house and a
business, Butler Casket Co.,
which has been on Academy
Street since 1960.
Moir said he wasnt surprised
to see flames coming from two
vacant houses next door after he
was awakened by
two young men
banging on the door
to his Academy
Street house.
Ive been talking
to the city about
these houses for four
years nothing,
Moir said. Were on
a main road here, the
smell, the mice and
the rats. All Im told
from the city is, Our
hands are tied.
Moir said 27 Acad-
emy St. has beenvacant for about
five years, and the other for at
least four years.
Delaney said firefighters were
called to the blaze at about 2:30
a.m., finding heavy fire and
smoke coming from both build-
ings.
Delaney credited two aerial
ladder trucks, one from the city
and the other from the Kingston
Fire Department, with saving
Moirs residence and the casket
business.
Without the two aerials, we
probably would have lost the oth-
er house, Delaney said.
Runoff water froze
Cold temperatures quickly
froze water runoff on the side-
walks and Academy Street, mak-
ing suppression efforts difficult,
Delaney said.
It looked like an inferno,
Moir said. The fire chief told me
thefirefighters weregoingtocon-
centrate on my house. The
flames were starting to shoot
over and they were afraid the fire
was going to jump. The firemen
did a terrific job, a
terrific job. Theyve
been checking my
basement and my
attic. They dont get
paid enough.
Moir said he had
water damage in his
basement from run-
off and several roof
shingles were
blown off by water
pressure from hos-
es. Adistance of less
than 5 feet separate
Moirs house and 31
Academy St.
Delaney said it was too danger-
ous for firefighters to enter the
burning houses due to structur-
al collapse.
Sections of the roof on both
houses collapsed.
Firefighters returned to the va-
cant houses Tuesday afternoon
to extinguish hot spots.
Delaney said an investigation
by city fire inspectors Alan Kla-
pat and William Sharksnas is un-
der way to determine the cause.
Moir said he believed there
was noutilityservice tothe build-
ings, which were often used by
squatters.
I called police at least once a
month saying, Come on down,
there are people in there, Moir
said.
DrewMcLaughlin, city spokes-
man, saidthe city last boardedup
27 Academy St. on Feb. 28. He
said the city was unable to react
to complaints about the house
due to litigation involving the
property owner.
Luzerne County property re-
cords list the owner of 27 Acade-
my St. as Joseph Reisinger Jr., of
Wilkes-Barre. Reisinger pur-
chasedthe propertyinJune 2004.
The house at 31 Academy St.
was purchased by Dan and Janet
Frascella, of Hanover Township,
in June.
Neighborhood fires
It is the fourth fire at a vacant
house in South Wilkes-Barre
since May.
A fire at a vacant house at 73
Sullivan St. claimed the lives of
two homeless men, Robert Klein
and James Moore Jr., both 52, on
May 31. The cause of the deadly
blaze has not been determined.
Firefighters found the body of
Jhole Beaubrun, 29, of Brooklyn,
N.Y., in a second-floor bedroom
of a vacant double-block at 19-21
Elizabeth St., after a blaze on
Aug. 4. Acause of the fire has not
been determined. Most recently,
firefighters extinguished a fire at
a vacant house at 257 Carey Ave.
on Friday.
The city obtained an emergen-
cy demolition order Tuesday af-
ternoon to raze the two buildings
for safety, McLaughlin said.

Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich
carried Georgia, home of the district he

said it proved the naysayers wrong.
I want youtoknow, inthemorning, we

thats just this week, Gingrich told cheer-
ing supporters in Atlanta, referring to the
next set of contests.
ThebiggestprizewasOhio. With92per-
cent of precincts reporting, Romney, the
former Massachusetts governor, had 38
percent to 37 percent for Santorum, the
formerPennsylvaniasenator, andamargin
of about 6,000 votes.
Inall, votersin10stateswerecastingbal-
lots in Super Tuesday contests. But even
though Georgia dispensed the most dele-
gates, the greatest attention was focused
on Ohio, a November battleground where
Romney and Santorum devoted the bulk
of their time and resources.
Both candidates focused on the econo-
myinOhio, aRust Belt statethat hurt long
before the rest of the country sunk into
deeprecession, thenemergedtoa fitful re-
covery.
Santorum touted his roots across the
border in a Pennyslvania steel town, say-
inghewouldseektostrengthentheecono-
my by restoring Americas manufacturing
might. Romney unveiled a new slogan
more jobs, less debt, smaller govern-
ment andjabbedat Santorums digres-
sionintosubjects suchas contraception
and the separation of church and state.
During this campaign there has
been discussion about all sorts of is-
sues, Romney said in Canton. I keep
bringing it back to more jobs, less debt
and smaller government. Thats what
my campaign is about.
Thefourthcandidateintherace, Tex-
asRep. RonPaul, washopingforhisfirst
victory in the one remaining caucus
state, Alaska. (Voters inWyoming were
also caucusing) Paul campaigned hard
in North Dakota and appeared there
election night, but came up unavailing.
With his three victories and strong
showing in Ohio, Romney added con-
siderably to his lead among delegates.
But the results continued to flash cau-
tion signs.
He trailed Santorum and Gingrich,
respectively, amongthe most conserva-
tivevoters inOhioandGeorgia, accord-

ued weakness among evangelical Chris-
tians, perhaps because of concerns about
his Mormon faith.
Whilethosevoterswhorepresentthe
base of the party are likely to rally be-
hind the eventual winner, the resistance
has kept Romney from wrapping up the
nominating fight as quickly as he would
like.
Overall, 437 delegates were at stake
Tuesday, considerably more thaninthe12
previous contests combined; 1,144 dele-
gates are neededto secure the GOPnomi-
nation.
Even before the first ballots were cast,
Romney was assured a victory in Tues-
days delegate count, thanks in part to the
organizational failings of his main rivals.

feited more than a dozen Ohio delegates
by failing to qualify representatives in sev-
eral congressional districts, including the
oneinwhichheheldhiselection-night par-
ty.
The shortfall underscored the advan-
tage that Romney has maintained
throughout the ups and downs of the tur-
bulent nominating fight: his big financial
and organizational advantages.
Both were brought to bear on Super
Tuesday.
Repeating a pattern seen throughout
the contest, Romney vastly outspent San-

Citing anonymous sources,
ESPN reported Tuesday that the
Colts plan to hold a news confer-
ence to announce the long-ex-
pected decision. Manning and
teamowner JimIrsay are expect-
edto attend, the network said.
Colts spokesman Avis Roper
said he could not confirm the de-
cision or that a news confer-
ence would be held today be-
cause Irsay was out of town and
could not be reached for com-
ment. Neither Irsay nor Man-
nings agent, Tom Condon, re-
sponded immediately to messag-
es left by The AssociatedPress.

that all hewantedtodowas finish

is to go start-to-finish with the

DORAL, Fla. Tiger Woods
already has left his own mark in
world golf.
History will decide what it
means.
Thenumber that defines great-
ness in golf is 18. It has been that
way since 1986, when Jack Nick-
laus won his 18th professional
major at the Masters. And it will
staythat wayunlessor until
Woods wins the five more majors
he needs to pass him.
Whilehehasbeengonefor 2
years, these guys who have all
learnedhowtoplay, orall learned
howtowin, are probably nolong-
er afraid of Tiger, Nicklaus said.
In my opinion, I still think Tiger
will regain what he does. He will
come back and play very, very
well. Whether he breaks my re-
cord is another issue. I still think
he will. But he still has to go do
it.
If not, Woodsmight havetoset-
tle for another standard.

For what
appears to be
the first time in
the 74-year
history of the
PIAA Wrestling
Championships,
the 56 finalists
will not be the only ones under
the spotlight.
In a proposal last year to save
time and be more wrestler
friendly, the PIAA decided to
change the schedule for this
weekends tournament at Giant
Center in Hershey. That means
all four placing bouts in each
classification championship,
third, fifth and seventh will all
be held at the same time. And
the parade of champions in both
classifications will consist of all
112 medal participants.
In previous years, the 2A
finals started at 2:30 p.m., which
was following the third, fifth
and seventh-place bouts, which
started at approximately 12:30
p.m. This year, both will kick off
at 2 p.m.

WILKES-BARRE TWP. During
their first two meetings against the St.
Johns IceCaps, the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton Penguins were victorious in
both contests thanks to a total of four
shorthanded goals.
OnTuesday whenthe IceCaps made
their first trip to Wilkes-Barre, the
roles were reversed.
St. Johns scored three goals on their
first three shots and had two short-
handed tallies to beat the Penguins,
5-2.
Theres no explanation for it, said
Zach Sill, regarding the six shorthand-
ed goals that have resulted in the three
meetings against the two teams. If
were going to win these games, we
have to capitalize on our special teams
and we cant afford to give up short-
handed goals.
The loss drops the Penguins 33-19-
2-5 and keeps them in fourth place in
the Eastern Conference, two points
ahead of Hershey. The Penguins have
lost three out of their last five games
and are now12-13-2-2 at home.
Despite equaling St. Johns in scor-
ingchances andoutshootingthem11-4
in the first period, the IceCaps built a
3-0 lead by connecting on their first
three shots of the game. John Albert
scored a shorthanded tally to put St.
Johns ontheboardat 4:48, followedby
a power play sequence that saw both
Matt Rust and Zach Sill hobbled after
blocking shots before Carl Klingberg
connected to give the IceCaps a 2-0
lead.
I didnt knowwhat the heck was go-
ing on. It was mayhem, Sill said of the
power play sequence. The first shot
hit Rust, went back to their guy and he
fed it over to (Paul) Postma for a one-
timer and it hit me. That was a pretty
good game plan by them.
Former Penguin Jason DeSantis
scored with a shot fromthe high point
less than a minute later to put the Pen-
guins down 3-0 and bring an early end
for Scott Munroe in goal, who failed to
stop all three shots he faced. Munroe
was replaced by Patrick Killeen.

Around the region, its hardly a secret.
From her high school days at Scranton Prep
to her three seasons playing guard for
Kings, Celia Rader has been known on the
court as a dangerous
shooter.
After this past week-
end, the NCAA tourna-
ment field knows it too.
Rader, a junior guard
for the Lady Monarchs,
tied the all-time record
for three-pointers in an
NCAA Division III wom-
ens tournament game,
connecting on nine of them to help lift
Kings to a wild 64-63 win over William Pa-
terson in the second round.
Despite hitting five in the first half alone,
Rader found herself open down the stretch,
keying a double-digit rally with four more in
the games final four minutes.
Celias our best shooter. Its just that
shes been hurt for a couple weeks, Kings
coach Brian Donoghue said. To be honest,
I think in our league play, (opponents) prob-
ably secure her a little bit more. The fact is
that theres not a lot of film on her recently
because shes been out.
Im sure they knew who she was, but
maybe not the range she has or some of the
things we try to get her loose on.
Certainly the Lady Monarchs next oppo-
nent will know all about her. Kings faces

Crosby cleared for contact
PITTSBURGH Pittsburgh Pen-
guins captain Sidney Crosby has been
cleared for contact, a big step toward
his return from concussion-like symp-
toms.
Crosby went through drills with his
teammates on Tuesday, the first time
hes been a full participant in practice
since the symptoms returned after a
loss to Boston on Dec. 5.
The 24-year-old Crosby says he will
play at the moment he is symptom
free, but there remains no timetable for
his return. The Penguins continue a
four-game homestand on Wednesday
against Toronto.
Crosby missed more than 10 months
following a pair of hits to the head in
January 2011. He had two goals in his
season debut against the New York
Islanders, his only goals in the last 14
months.
Flyers retire Howes No. 2
PHILADELPHIA The Philadel-
phia Flyers have retired former defen-
seman Mark Howes No. 2 and raised
the number to the rafters.
Howe was honored before Tuesday
nights game against the Detroit Red
Wings. Howe is a pro scout for the Red
Wings and players for both teams
stayed on the bench to watch the cere-
mony.
Howe is Philadelphias career leader
in goals, assists and points for a defen-
seman. He played for the Flyers from
1982-92 and was a three-time Norris
Trophy finalist.
Howe said during the ceremony, it
was as if I was born to become a Flyer.
He is the fifth Flyer to have his num-
ber retired, joining Bernie Parent,
Barry Ashbee, Bill Barber and Bobby
Clarke. Howe was inducted into the
Hockey Hall of Fame last November.
Gordie Howe, one of the all-time
NHL greats, received a standing ova-
tion from Flyers fans when he was
introduced.

Coach K not thinking 2016
Mike Krzyzewski says he is only
thinking about this year, not about a
potential third Olympics as U.S. basket-
ball coach.
A day after Cleveland rookie Kyrie
Irving said he found out Krzyzewski
planned to lead the U.S. again in 2016,
the Duke coach says he is focused only
on the remainder of the Blue Devils
season and the London Games.
Both Krzyzewski and USA Basket-
ball chairman Jerry Colangelo, in state-
ments provided Tuesday by USA Bas-
ketball, deny that discussions about the
future have taken place.
Irving said he would not pursue a
chance to play for Australia this sum-
mer in hopes of playing for the U.S. in
four years. Colangelo says Irving will
be given consideration if he continues
to play as well as he is now.
NFL
Foster signs 5-year deal
HOUSTON Texans running back
Arian Foster has signed a five-year,
$43.5 million deal to stay in Houston.
An undrafted free agent in 2009,
Foster made $525,000 last season. He
was the NFLs leading rusher in 2010
with 1,616 yards. He then ran for 1,224
yards and 10 touchdowns last season.
He was due to become a restricted free
agent next week, but his agent, Mike
McCartney, said Monday that Foster
was eager to work out a deal with the
Texans.
Hell make $18 million in base salary
next season, plus incentives.

I N B R I E F
Almost a week after the NFL pointed
to them for failing to stop a bounty pro-
gram involving some two dozen Saints
players, coach Sean Payton and general
manager Mickey Loomis apologized
and took the blame for violations that
happened under our watch.
These are serious violations and we
understand the negative impact it has
had on our game, Payton and Loomis
added. Both of us have made it clear
within our organization that this will
never happen again, and make that
same promise to the NFL and most im-
portantly to all of our fans, Payton and
Loomis said in a joint statement Tues-
day.
Payton and Loomis also said NewOr-
leans owner Tom Benson had nothing
to do with the bounty pool.
We acknowledge that the violations
disclosedby the NFLduring their inves-
tigation of our club happened under our
watch. We take full responsibility, they
said.
The leagues investigation, released
last Friday, saidthebountyprogramwas
funded primarily by players for the past
three seasons and was overseen by for-
mer Saints defensive coordinator Gregg
Williams. He admitted to running the
program and apologized within hours
after the report surfaced.
The NFL said it confirmed Benson
was unawareof theprogram, andthat he
told Loomis to stop it immediately, but
that Loomis did not. The league also
said Payton, though not directly in-
volved, was aware of the bounty pool,
but did nothing to stop it.
Williams now is defensive coordina-
tor for the St. Louis Rams. He met with
NFL security officials on Monday as
part of the leagues ongoing investiga-
tion.
Once it concludes the league says
there is no timetable Roger Goodell
likely will hand out the stiffest penalties
of his 5
1
2 years as commissioner.
Goodell has frequently taken a hard
line on any action that threatens player
safety. He suspended Detroits Ndamu-
kongSuhfor twogames for stompingon
an opponent last season; banned Pitts-
burghs James Harrison for one game af-
ter aseries of flagrant hits that culminat-
ed in a collision with Cleveland quarter-
back Colt McCoys helmet; and has
ramped up the amount of fines for what
the league terms egregious hits.
NFL spokesman Greg Aiello said be-
fore handing out any penalties, Goodell
will review the information with his
staff and consult with others, including
the union and player leaders.
The players union has not seen a full
report of the investigation, so it cant be
certain if Goodell will levy punishment
under the on-field discipline or the per-
sonal conduct policy. Theres a major
distinction, because players can appeal
on-field punishment to independent ar-
bitrators Art Shell and Ted Cottrell. Ap-
peals under the personal conduct policy
are heard by Goodell and other league
officials.
Thecommissioner has broadauthor-
ity to impose discipline for violation of
league rules. Were not going to put it in
a category right now, Aiello said.
The NFLhasnt cited specific players,
but fines and suspensions are probable
for those found to have participated in
the bounty program.
We take this issue seriously and we
continue to look into it, union spokes-
man George Atallah said.
Goodell fined the NewEngland Patri-
ots $250,000 and their coach, Bill Bel-
ichick, $500,000 for the Spygate scandal
in 2007, when the teamwas caught ille-
gallyvideotapingtheJets sideline. New
England also was stripped of a first-
round draft pick.

Saints GM and coach admit blame
By BARRY WILNER
AP Pro Football Writer
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. To
Johan Santana and the New York
Mets, this was a most pleasant
spring sight.
The lefty ace returned to the
mound for his first game against
major league hitters in 18 months
and pitched two scoreless innings
Tuesday as a Mets split squad beat
the St. Louis Cardinals 8-6.
Santana walked his first batter on
five pitches. But a single marked the
only other runner against Santana,
who threw 17 of 29 pitches for
strikes.
The two-time Cy Young winner
last pitched to big league hitters on
Sept. 2, 2010, in a game in Atlanta.
Two weeks later he underwent sur-
gery to repair a torn anterior cap-
sule in his left shoulder.
Finally I had an opportunity to
go out there and finally get the first
one out of the way, Santana said.
... I was excited about today. Even
as I was preparing myself prior to
the game, I was anxious to go out
there and do it.
Mariners 8, Reds 6
PEORIA, Ariz. Seattle ace Felix
Hernandez struck out four in three
hitless innings.
Hernandez hit the first batter he
faced this spring, then retired nine

LONDONOn the other hand ...
The British government has rejected
advice fromthe Olympic teams top doc-
tor that athletes should not shake hands
at the London Games to avoid germs
that could make themsick.
Government health advisers seemed
perplexed by the guidelines, which
Olympic hopefuls derided as rude and
pointless.
Bytheendof theday, theBritishOlym-
pic Association had softened its stance.
Yes, the athletes will be able to greet
the 10,000 visiting Olympians and hun-
dreds of dignitaries with handshakes.
Theyll just have to make sure they wash
thoroughly later.
TeamGBs 550 athletes will of course
warmly welcome their fellow competi-
tors fromaround the world this summer
there is no question about that, BOA
communications director Darryl Seibel
said Tuesday.
We are not advising our athletes to
avoid shaking hands. We are simply re-
minding them to follow common-sense
measures by maintaining good hand hy-
giene to minimize the risk of becoming
ill, he said.
Duringabriefingwithasmall groupof
reporters, BOA chief medical officer Dr.
IanMcCurdiepointedout that theOlym-
pic Village environment couldbe a pret-
ty hostile one for infections and said a
handshake ban was not such a bad
thing.
His comments went viral in Britain,
drawing derision on TV and radio.
Even the Department of Health urged
Olympians to disregard the advice.
It goes without sayingthat we should
all wash our hands regularly to keep
themcleanandprevent spreadingbugs,
the department saidina statement. But
theres no reason why people shouldnt
shake hands at the Olympics.
And athletes took to Twitter to insist
that they would still shake on it at the
games.
Cant we just carry around a small
bottle of alcohol hand gel & not be so
rude to everyone we meet? tweeted
Pete Reed, an Olympic champion in the
coxless four.
Another Olympic champion rower,
Zac Purchase, tweeted that the advice
seemed a bit pointless unless u r going
to run around with disinfectant 4 every
surface you come into contact with.
But triathlete Hollie Avil, who was
forced to pull out of the 2008 Beijing
Olympics after picking up a virus,
quipped: Maybe I shook too many
hands in Beijing.
The BOAs clarification is now merely
about minimizing the risk of germtrans-
mission during the Olympics.
After years of training and sacrifice,
thelast thinganathletewouldwant todo
is unintentionally compromise or under-
minetheir abilitytoperformat their very
best at the Olympic Games, and basic,
common-sense measures can go a long
way toward making certain that doesnt
happen, Seibel said.

Britain says
handshakes
will be OK
Athletes will be encouraged to wash
their hands instead of avoiding
traditional greeting during Games.

bouts started at 8 p.m. in previ-
ous years and it was not out of
the ordinary for the last two or
three matches to begin after 11
p.m. This weekend, the 3A
finals will start an hour earlier,
at 7 p.m., and will be accompa-
nied with the medal matches
just like in 2A. In previous years,
the medal round was held at 6
p.m.
In 2006, Wyoming Valley
West heavyweight Trevin Cow-
man stepped on the mat for his
gold medal match just after 11
p.m. The next year, when the
Pennsylvania Wrestling Coaches
Association Hall of Fame in-
ductions ran long, Hazleton
Areas Nate Eachus didnt win
his 189-pound gold medal until
the clock struck 11 p.m. That
year, the 285-pounders didnt
end until nearly 11:30.
The PIAA also changed the
starting times for the final two
days. In previous years, wres-
tling would start at 8 a.m. on
Friday and Saturday with weigh-
ins and skin checks starting at 7.
This year, the start times will be
9 a.m. all three days.
Its expected that the changes
will only be on an experimental
basis to see how it goes and
what kind of reaction is had.
The state of Ohio also uses
the format of the medal rounds
held at the same time as the
finals and many big tourna-
ments across the state also have
the same arrangement.
Here are some other interest-
ing tidbits to watch for this
weekends PIAA Champion-
ships.
CLASS 2A DEFENDING
CHAMPIONS: If Lackawanna
Trails Eric Laytos wins his
second state title in three years,
the 220-pounder might have to
go through a two-time champ in
Richlands John Rizzo. Rizzo
won his previous two titles at
285 before dropping down this
season. The two can only meet
in the finals.
Derry Areas Jimmy Gulibon
(126 pounds) will attempt to
win his fourth state title and
Kittanings Jason Nolf (113),
North Stars Nick Roberts (120)
and Pen Argyls Michael Raccia-
to (138) are also looking for
another state title.
CLASS 2A UNBEATENS: Ten
wrestlers, including Laytos and
Nolf begin the 2A event with an
unblemished mark. The most
interesting may be at 182 where
Dakota DesLauries from Burrell
(42-0) and Grove Citys Wes
Phipps (36-0) could meet in the
finals. DesLauries has the most
wins of any unbeaten in 2A.
3A DEFENDING CHAM-
PIONS: A total of nine past
champions are looking for a
repeat performance in Class 3A.
Only eight are guaranteed to
leave Hershey with a gold medal
though, because Central Moun-
tains Brian Brill (38-0) and
Chance Marsteller (39-0), a
sophomore from Kennard Dale,
could square off in the final.
Another notable returning
champ is Canon-McMillans
Cody Wiercioch, who previously
won a state title in 2010 as a
freshman in Class 2A for Char-
leroi and was runner-up in 2A
last season.
The remaining past cham-
pions going for another gold are
Billy Rappo (113, Council Rock
South), Conner Schram (120,
Canon-McMillan), Corey Keen-
er (126, Blue Mountain), Mitch-
ell Minotti (145, Easton), Tho-
mas Haines (220, Solanco) and
Averee Robinson (285, Susque-
hanna Township).
CLASS 3A UNBEATENS: The
3A event will feature 11 grap-
plers without a loss with the
most notable locally being
Coughlins Brad Emerick at 39-0
at 285 pounds. Another 285-
pounder is also unbeaten with
Chambersburgs Dawson Peck
at 10-0. The two could only see
each other as unbeatens in the
finals. Schram (22-0), Minotti
(37-0), Brill (38-0), Marsteller
(39-0) and Haines (40-0) high-
light the rest of the 3A undefeat-
eds.
MOST WINS: The most wins
in the state entering the tourna-
ment belong to Fort LeBoefs
Evan Dailey (47-4) at 220
pounds in Class 2A, while Nor-
ristowns Shane Springer has
the most in either classification
with a 50-5 record in 3As 170-
pound bracket.
The state record for wins in a
season of 57 will be safe for
another season. The most any
grappler can get is five after
falling into the losers bracket in
the first round and wrestling
back to take third.

What: PIAA Championships
When: Thursday through
Saturday
Where: Giant Center, Hershey
Local Flavor: Nine wrestlers
from the WVC will participate.
At Stake: The top eight in each
weight class earn a state
medal.
This was not the kind of post-
season the Wyoming Valley
Conference was looking for.
In District 2 tournament play,
WVCteams went a disappoint-
ing 6-12. Of those six wins, one
came at the expense of another
conference foe (Dallas overtime
victory against Holy Redeemer)
and another came against a
District 4 team(Hazleton Area
over Williamsport). There were
a variety of reasons for the strug-
gles ... or maybe not.
Their half-court trap and
defense was pretty sufficating,
Wyoming Valley West coach
Curt Lloyd said after a loss to
Wallenpaupack. He also said
that playoff game was his teams
worst shooting performance
since a December game against
North Pocono, another District 2
squad.
We handled their press better
than we did before (in a Decem-
ber game), Abington Heights
coach Vince Bucciarelli said after
downing Hazleton Area. In that
(December) game, we had16-18
turnovers in the first half alone.
You just cant simulate what
they do in practice, no matter
howgood your kids are. Its just
really tough, Nanticoke coach
Alan Yendrzeiwski said after
losing to Honesdale.
While not every teamlost
because of Lackawanna League
members using presses, it was a
recurring theme for many coach-
es after games in the past two
weeks.
SENIORMOMENTS: Heres a
look at the players who finished
their high school careers this
season ...

means a great deal to me.
But things have changed since
last summer. Nowit looks likethe
NFLs only four-time MVP, and a
former Super Bowl champion,
wont be wearing No. 18 for Indy.
With a $28 million bonus pay-
ment due Thursday to Manning,
his neck problems, and the fact
that the Colts own the No. 1 pick
in Aprils draft, the Colts seemto
have deemed it too risky and
toopriceytokeepthelongtime
franchise quarterback, who will
turn36 later this month.
Thetwists andturns of a public
debate between Manning and Ir-
say, who have been friends for
more than a decade, created the
sense the two had been fighting.
Irsay twice issued statements to
deny a rift.
Still, with the Colts in full re-
building mode, Irsay has been ex-
pected by many to play for the fu-
ture and let Manning try to chase
a second Super Bowl ring some-

The Colts are expected to take
Stanford quarterback Andrew
Luck with the first pick in Aprils
draft.
Mannings impending depar-
ture marks the end of a remarka-
bly successful era that included
the 2006 league title.
He started every meaningful
game for 13 seasons in Indy, 227
straight including the playoffs,
andtooktheColts fromperennial
also-rantooneof theNFLs model
franchises.
In the two decades pre-dating
his arrival, the Colts won 116
games, one division title and
made the playoffs three times.
With Manning taking snaps, the
Colts have won 150 games, eight
division titles, two AFC cham-
pionships and the franchises first
Super Bowl since moving from
Baltimore in1984.

the Division III tournament at
5 p.m. Friday in Amherst,
Mass.
After a breakout sophomore
campaign in which she led the
Lady Monarchs in scoring
(12.9 ppg.) and earned second-
team all-conference honors.
Rader spent much of league
play this season coming off the
bench for Kings, still topping
20 minutes per game but hav-
ing her scoring numbers dip in
the process. She missed the
regular season finale and both
games in the Freedom Confer-
ence tournament before re-
joining the starting lineup for
the NCAA tournament be-
cause of an injury to senior
Brittany Muscatell.
She has not disappointed. In
those two NCAA games she
has racked up 40 points and
hit 12-of-20 shots from behind
the arc. Her 27 points against
William Paterson were a ca-
reer-best.
I think thats kind of just
my goal. I feel like shooting
threes is what I do, Rader
said. Im not a post player. Im
not very big. Thats just what I
bring to the team.
Last season in particular
saw Rader score in bunches,
going on shooting streaks that
were catalysts for several
Kings wins.
The opportunities may have
gone down for her in 2012, but
when Rader connected from
long range on the games first
possession, it was a familiar
sight for teammates.
When the next three shots
fell as well, the Lady Mon-
archs knew it was going to be
one of those nights.
Oh yeah, when she hit the
first couple threes, senior Sa-
mantha Simcox said. I mean,
when she gets going, its hard
to stop her. And I think she
needed a game like that.
I think more important
than (the coaches) knowing it
is that Celia knew it and her
teammates knew it, Donogh-
ue said of Raders shooting
groove. And they did a great
job of finding her in the right
space where she could catch
and shoot. She just got it go-
ing and was huge for us.
One imagines there will be
much less space for Rader to
shoot against the Saints. And
should Kings win Friday, the
likely opponent in Saturdays
national quarterfinals would
be undefeated Amherst, the
top-ranked team in the coun-
try and the defending national
champion.
The road will get tougher,
but Rader wasnt fazed in tak-
ing down the No. 8 Pioneers
this past weekend.
No, I wasnt intimidated,
Rader said. I think people
should be intimidated of us.

those back, said head coach John Hynes. (Mun-
roe) can be better and he will be better.
With 30 seconds left in the period, Simon
Despres scored on a long shot from the top of the
slot to give the Penguins hope heading into the
second down 3-1.
The Penguins cut the lead to one in the second
period thanks to a Brian Gibbons goal. With less
than two minutes to play, Gibbons split the St.
Johns defense in the slot and broke in on IceCaps
goaltender Eddie Pasquale, roofing a shot over his
glove to make it 3-2.
After we made it 3-1that gave us some life com-
ing into the room. We had a good second period
and made it 3-2 going into the third and gave our-
selves a chance to win it, Gibbons said.
Killeen stabilized things in net, stopping all 10
shots he facedinthe periodtoprevent the IceCaps
from extending their lead, but things changed for
the worse in the third period when the IceCaps
scored their second shorthanded goal in the open-
ing minutes to make it 4-2.
St. Johns connectedagaintomakeit 5-2andput
the game out of reach.
It was a missed opportunity, said Penguins
captain Ryan Craig of the 5-2 loss. We had a
mixed bag of efforts and execution tonight, and
youre not going to win many hockey games like
that.

amazing record. When he last
won a WGC at Firestone in 2009,
that gavehim16worldtitles out of
the 32 he played, an astounding
rate of 50 percent.
What does that mean?
Foronething, hehaspaddedhis
bank account. Woods has made
more than $22.2 million in the
WGCs alone, which is nearly 25
percent of his career PGA Tour
earnings. His official WGCmoney
is more than all but 25 players
have made in their careers.
More than money, and more
than trophies that probably are
packed away in a box, it means
that Woods won16 events against
the best players in golf. The fields
aresmall, andtheytendtoinclude
players fromoverseas whoarejust
getting started (Louis Oosthui-
zen) or might never beheardfrom
again (Shiv Kapur). But for most
of their 13-year existence, they
haveincludedat least thetop50in
the world.
The World Golf Champion-
ships are still not what they
should be.
Along with bringing together
thebest players fromall corners of
theglobe, it wouldhelptotakethe
tournaments around the world.
And if they are mostly going to be
in America, it would be better to
move them to iconic venues in-
stead of merging them with for-
mer PGA Tour events, which is
what happened at Doral.
They deserve a higher status
based on the players they attract
and the winners they produce.
Hunter Mahanjoinedelitecom-
pany two weeks ago when he won
the Match Play Championship
and became only the sixth player
to win multiple WGCevents. The
others are familiar names
Woods, Phil Mickelson, Ernie Els,
Geoff Ogilvy and Darren Clarke.
Martin Kaymer won the HSBC
Champions last November and
became the 10th player with a
WGC title and a major. He joined
Woods, Mickelson, Els, Ogilvy,
Clarke, Mike Weir, Stewart Cink,
David Toms and Vijay Singh.
The WGC event this week at
Doral used to travel to Europe ev-
ery other year until 2006. Woods
has wonit sixtimes onsixcourses
in four countries. That gives it a
little more punch than winning
the Bridgestone Invitational sev-
en times, all at Firestone.
I think Tiger gave them credi-
bility by winning14 of the first 20,
orwhateverit was. Hewonalmost
every one of them, Ogilvy said.
If you do look at the list of guys
who have won them, generally, at
that timetheywereoneof thebest
in the world.
Thats because the best in the
world are there.
In that respect, it can make
them the most difficult events to
win next to the majors. The ma-
jors havehistoryandprestige, and
withthat comespressurethat can-
not be compared with other
events.
Paul Azinger is famous for say-
ing cash and prestige are the only
things that made him choke. The
WGCs are heavy on cash.
These arent the best 74 players
intheworldat Doral, rather 74top
players who qualified through the
world ranking of the money lists
on the six major tours.
Then again, the majors have
their share of players who cant be
considered serious contenders
aging champions at the Masters,
amateur qualifiers at the Opens,
club pros at the PGA Champion-
ship.
What might boost the credibil-
ity of the WGCs is to expand the
fieldandintroduceacut. Tosome,
the WGCs have the appearance of
free money. The courses? No one
can argue with Firestone, which
once hosted a PGA Champion-
ship. And while Doral has pro-
duced a winning score of at least
16-under par the last four years, a
course doesnt have to have high
scores to be a good test.
I dont think Doral is close to
beinga top100 course, but it finds
good players, Ogilvy said.
Asked the difference between
majorsandWorldGolf Champion-
ships, Clarkesaidtherewas abso-
lutely no difference whatsoever,
except for the title.
One is a major. One is not.
The title is the obvious thing,
he said. As players, we are judged
by major championships. Were
not judged by World Golf Cham-
pionships. Were not judged by
regular tournaments. Were
judged by majors. Its easy for me
to say now that Ive got one, but I
would have told you the same if I
hadnt got one.
It means more because of tra-
dition and history. Theres added
pressure because of that.

HARRISBURG Pennsylva-
nia Game Commission Exec-
utive Director Carl G. Roe today
announced that the final bear
harvest results from the states
three recently concluded sea-
sons show that hunters harvest-
ed 4,350 bears, which sets a new
record as the highest in Penn-
sylvania history.
On Dec. 5, a preliminary har-
vest of 3,968 was announced,
but that figure did not include
complete reports from all check
stations.
Bears were harvested in 54 of
the states 67 counties. The top
five bear harvest counties this
year, once again, all come from
the Northcentral Region. How-
ever, the final numbers caused a
shifting in the order of counties
in that list, as well as in several
region rankings. After all reports
were reviewed, Potter propelled
into the top spot with 399 bears
harvested (148 in 2010); fol-
lowed by Tioga, 381 (184); Ly-
coming, 336 (230); McKean,
258 (92); and Clinton 205 (250).
Final county harvests by re-
gion (with 2010 figures in paren-
theses) are:
Northeast: Wayne, 208 (93);
Sullivan, 180 (57); Bradford, 126
(38); Pike, 116 (134); Luzerne,
99 (58); Susquehanna, 92 (41);
Monroe, 88 (69); Wyoming, 57
(22); Carbon, 45 (35); Colum-
bia, 26 (20); Lackawanna, 25
(19); and Northumberland, 11
(3).
Southeast: Dauphin, 46 (20);
Schuylkill, 34 (27); Lebanon, 13
(7); Northampton, 4 (7); Lehigh
3 (0); and Berks, 2 (2).
Northcentral: Lycoming, 336
(230); Centre, 129 (119).
According to the final reports,
88 bears weighing 500 pounds
or more were legally harvested
during the three seasons, and 25
bears surpassed the 600 pound
mark. The top 10 bears proc-
essed at check stations all had
estimated live weights that
exceeded 678 pounds.
Joseph C. Colyer, of Pocono
Lake, harvested the largest bear,
a male that weighed 767 pounds
(estimated live weight). The
bear was taken in Tobyhanna,
Monroe County, at 6:50 a.m. on
Nov. 16, with a crossbow during
the archery bear season.

Misericordia Getts its
big game-winning hit
The Times Leader staff
BOSTON Kevin Gar-
nett grabbed 13 rebounds to
pass Shaquille ONeal and
move into 12th on the
NBAs career list, and Paul
Pierce scored seven of his
30 points in overtime on
Tuesday night to lead the
Boston Celtics to a 97-92
victory over the Houston
Rockets.
Boston has won five
straight since the All-Star
break, including two in a
row in overtime. Houston
has lost four in a row.
Ray Allen scored 21,
including a 3-pointer with
36 seconds left in the fourth
quarter to give Boston the
lead. But Rajon Rondo
missed an open layup with
a chance to clinch it in
regulation, and Goran Drag-
ic tied it for the Rockets.
Luis Scola had 18 points
and 14 rebounds, and Sa-
muel Dalembert had 11
points and 17 boards for
Houston.
Hawks 101, Pacers 96
INDIANAPOLIS Josh
Smith had 27 points and
nine rebounds, leading the
Atlanta Hawks to their
third straight victory.
Smith scored 13 points in
the first quarter, 11 in the
third, and fell three points
shy of his season high.
Jannero Pargo had 16
points, while Marvin Wil-
liams and Zaza Pachulia
each scored 12 for the
Hawks.
David West scored a
season-high 24 points for
the Pacers, who have lost
two straight. Danny Gran-
ger had 19 points and eight
rebounds, and George Hill
scored 15 points off the
bench for Indiana.
Pistons 88, Lakers 85
AUBURN HILLS, Mich.
Rodney Stuckey scored
34 points, and the Detroit
Pistons overcame a tying
shot by Kobe Bryant at the
end of regulation, beating
the Los Angeles Lakers in
overtime.
Bryant, who had tied the
game at the buzzer to force
the extra session, missed
from 3-point range in the
final seconds of overtime.
Metta World Peace came up
with the ball and dribbled
back toward the top of the
key, but his last-ditch turn-
around missed as well.
Andrew Bynum had 30
points and 14 rebounds for
the Lakers.
Bobcats 100, Magic 84
CHARLOTTE, N.C.
Corey Maggette scored a
season-high 29 points,
Gerald Henderson hit some
big shots in the fourth quar-
ter, and the Charlotte Bob-
cats overcame a 20-point,
first-half deficit to beat the
Orlando Magic.
The Bobcats came in
having lost 21 of their last
22 games, but seemed to
get a spark after coach Paul
Silas was ejected in the
second quarter with the
team trailing by 18.
The Bobcats also got a
big game from rookie cen-
ter Bismack Biyombo, who
battled toe-to-toe with
Dwight Howard and had 10
points and a career-high 15
rebounds.
Heat 108, Nets 78
MIAMI LeBron James
scored 21 points and
capped his night by bank-
ing in a halfcourt shot,
Chris Bosh added 20 points
and the Miami Heat
snapped a two-game slide
by rolling past the New
Jersey Nets.
The win came with a
cost: Dwyane Wade turned
his right ankle late in the
first half and did not return,
finishing with 13 points.
Wade missed six games
earlier this season after
spraining the same ankle,
though the team said he
could have returned to this
one if needed.
Mavericks 95, Knicks 85
DALLAS Dirk Nowitz-
ki scored 28 points and
bailed out the Mavericks
after they lost the lead
following a 7
1
2-minute
scoreless stretch in the
fourth quarter, and Dallas
beat the New York Knicks.
Nowitzki made a 14-foot
fadeaway jumper with 4:34
left, starting a game-clinch-
ing, 14-0 run by the Maver-
icks in which their All-Star
forward scored nine points.

FBI busts Web hackers
A group of expert hackers who at-
tacked governments and corporations
around the globe has been busted after
its ringleader one of the worlds
most-wanted and most-feared comput-
er vandals secretly became an in-
formant for the FBI months ago, au-
thorities announced Tuesday.
Five people were charged in court
papers unsealed in federal court in
New York, and authorities revealed
that a sixth person, Hector Xavier
Monsegur, a legendary figure known in
the hacking underworld as Sabu, has
pleaded guilty.
According to the charges, members
of the group got their start as part of a
large worldwide hacking organization
known as Anonymous.
KKR, Chesapeake team up
Investment firm Kohlberg Kravis
Roberts & Co. and Chesapeake Energy
Corp. are teaming up to invest in U.S.
oil and gas fields.
The companies said Tuesday they
will pool $250 million to buy new re-
sources. KKR, which has invested in
the energy sector for two decades, will
contribute 90 percent of the money for
the partnership. Chesapeake, the sec-
ond-largest natural gas producer in the
U.S., will contribute 10 percent.
Chesapeake has been pushing to get
access to more oil, which has become
much more profitable to produce than
natural gas.
Philippines gaining jobs
Higher labor costs on Chinas south-
ern coast are causing some big foreign
manufacturers to relocate to the Philip-
pines. One company that left is return-
ing, and another major garment maker
is seriously considering a move.
Philippines Trade Secretary Gregory
Domingo said his country is seeing a
spike in investor fact-finding missions.
By 2015, a majority of Filipinos will
be of working age, considered a de-
mographic sweet spot that encourag-
es growth.
Greece banks on board
Greeces government on Tuesday
said the countrys six major banks have
agreed to participate in a bond-swap
deal. Though Greece still needs many
more creditors to sign up before the
Thursday deadline, the banks inclu-
sion is a relief to financial authorities
and potentially persuasive for smaller
bondholders.
The Finance Ministry said the six
banks have already agreed to participa-
te or would recommend participation.
The bond deal is an integral part of
the countrys second package of in-
ternational bailout loans.

THE TIMES LEADER WEDNESDAY, MARCH 7, 2012
timesleader.com
Stocks suffered their biggest
losses in three months Tuesday,
the first hiccup in a strong and stea-
dy rally to start the year. Wall
Street worried about the global
economy and waited while Greece
pressured the last investors to sign
on for its bailout.
The Dow Jones industrial aver-
age gave up more than a quarter of
its 745-point advance since Jan. 1,
the best start to a year in the U.S.
market since 1998.
The sell-off, which spread west
from Europe, also interrupted a pe-
riod of unusual calm on Wall
Street. Before Tuesday, the Dow
had not fallen 100 points for 45
straight trading sessions, the long-
est streak since 2006.
All but one of the 30 Dow stocks
finished the day lower. Intel man-
aged a gain of 7 cents.
All 10 industry groups in the
Standard & Poors 500 declined.
Bank stocks, which typically take a
hit when there is any reason to wor-
ry about Greece, led the declines,
followed by industrial and materi-
als companies, which depend on
strength in the world economy.
Bill Stone, chief investment
strategist for PNC Wealth Manage-
ment, called Tuesdays decline
fairly rational, considering how
much the market has climbed and
the economic worries in Greece
and the rest of Europe.
You need the pullback to give
people opportunities to want to get
involved again, Stone said.
The price of gold fell $31.80 per
ounce, or 2.1 percent, to $1,672.10
per ounce.

worlds most prestigious
schools of cooking and hospi-

Starting in June, one student
each will be eligible to partici-
pate in an 18-week paid work-

Metz also is opening paid in-

HOUSTON Former Texas ty-
coon R. Allen Stanford, whose finan-
cial empire once spanned the Amer-
icas and made him fabulously
wealthy, was convicted Tuesday of
bilking his investors out of more than
$7 billion through a Ponzi scheme he
operated for 20 years.
A day after telling U.S. District
Judge DavidHittner they were having
trouble reaching a verdict, jurors con-
victedStanford, 61, on13of 14charges
he faced, acquitting him on a single
count of wire fraud stemming from
Super Bowl tickets he allegedly used
to bribe a regulator.
We are disappointed in the out-
come. We expect to appeal, Ali Fazel,
one of Stanfords at-
torneys, said after
the hearing. He said
he couldnt com-
ment further be-
cause of a gag order
U.S. District Judge
David Hittner placed
on attorneys in the case.
Prosecutors and Stanfords family
members declined to comment, but
oneof his investors, CassieWilkinson,
welcomed the verdict.
As an investor, you have to doubt
whether or not youwere stupidor just
taken advantage of. This relieves that
doubt. Its a vindication, said Wilkin-
son, 62, who lives in Houston. She de-
clined to say how much money she
and her husband lost.
Ashorter civil trial before the same
jury, in which prosecutors hoped to
seize money from more than 30 Stan-
ford-controlled accounts in countries
including Switzerland, Britain and
Canada, began later Tuesday. Stan-
ford faces up to 20 years for the most
serious charges against him. But if
Hittner orders him to serve his sen-
tences consecutively, Stanford could
get up to 230 years in prison.
Prosecutors say Stanford used in-
vestor money to fund a string of failed
businesses, bribe regulators and pay
for his lavish lifestyle, which included
buying himself yachts and private
jets. His attorneys portrayed Stanford
as a visionaryentrepreneur whomade
money for investors andconductedle-
gitimate business deals.

Let the warm-up
begin! And
indeed it will,
starting today
with uninterrupt-
ed sunshine and
afternoon tem-
peratures 15
degrees warmer
than Tuesday.
The sun is as
strong now as it
is on Oct. 6,
strong enough
to warm the top-

out the crocus
blooms this
week. For sure,
the sap is flow-
ing and the buds
are swelling on
the maple trees.
In our backyard,
the witch hazel
tree is starting
to bloom.
Thursday will be
our warmest day
of the week, with
readings topping
60 for the rst
time since back
on Dec. 5. About
a quarter-inch of
rain will come
Thursday night,
followed by cold-
er weather head-
ing into
Saturday.

NATIONAL FORECAST: Moisture feeding northward from the Gulf of Mexico will produce showers
from Texas to the central Plains. Showers will be likely along a cold front from the central Plains to
the northern Great Lakes, with a few snow showers over the arrowhead of Minnesota. Rain and snow
will fall over the central Rockies to the north of low pressure passing through northern New Mexico.

T
heres a new county manager in town, and a tipster told us one of the first questions he asked was,
Where can I get a good pizza? He asked, so we asked. We asked you. Within hours of posting a
survey on timesleader.comon Friday, we had hundreds upon hundreds of responses, 440 in total by
Monday morning.
If Northeastern Pennsylvania isnt actually the pizza capital of the world, we dont know what is. We
broke our pizza-surveyquestions downinto10distinct categories, andyoutoldus whoyoubelieve sells the
best stuff in each. Some names came up again and again, and some names only occasionally, meaning
familiarity breeds contentment or maybe we should all break out of our individual pizza boxes, so to
speak, and try something different on occasion.
As for Mr. Robert Lawton, our new county manager? Has he found his bliss in a box or on a tray yet?
Nope, not yet, he told us. But now, we hope, he has a pretty good road map.

Largely characterized by simple structure or basic cheeses, perhaps even

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby:
Several years ago
you printed a poem
about forgiveness
in your column. It
described very
well the benefits of
the practice, and it
was accompanied by a sort of for-
giveness schedule for every day of
the week.
I clipped the column and saved
it, but over time I seem to have lost
it. Could you please run this piece
again?
Daniela in Toronto
Dear Daniela: Im glad to oblige. The
poem you have requested, Decide to
Forgive, was written by the late Rob-
ert Muller, former assistant secretary-
general of the United Nations.
Now, with so much turmoil going
on in the nation and in the world,
its sentiments are particularly
relevant.
This poem is part of a collection
of letters, poems and essays that
are collected in my booklet Keep-
ers because so many Dear Abby
readers had clipped them and
continue to request that they be
reprinted. Here is the poem you have
requested:
DECIDE TO FORGIVE
Decide to forgive
For resentment is negative
Resentment is poisonous
Resentment diminishes and de-
vours the self.
Be the first to forgive,
To smile and to take the first step
And you will see happiness bloom
On the face of your human brother
or sister.
Be always the first
Do not wait for others to forgive
For by forgiving
You become the master of fate
The fashioner of life
A doer of miracles.
To forgive is the highest,
Most beautiful form of love.
In return you will receive
Untold peace and happiness.
And here is the program for achiev-
ing a truly forgiving heart:
SUNDAY: Forgive yourself.
MONDAY: Forgive your family.
TUESDAY: Forgive your friends
and associates.
WEDNESDAY: Forgive across eco-
nomic lines within your own nation.
THURSDAY: Forgive across cul-
tural lines within your own nation.
FRIDAY: Forgive across political
lines within your own nation.
SATURDAY: Forgive other nations.
Only the brave know how to for-
give. A coward never forgives.
It is not in his nature.
Since I cannot reprint the cont-
inual avalanche of requests I receive
for reprints, for those who desire
them, my Keepers booklet can
be ordered by sending your name
and mailing address, plus check or
money order for $7 (U.S. funds) to:
Dear Abby Keepers Booklet, P.O.
Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-
0447. Shipping and handling are
included in the price. Many people
have told me it makes a welcome
gift for newlyweds, new parents,
animal lovers, those who are griev-
ing, and anyone who is recovering
from an illness because its a quick
and easy read, and filled with
wisdom and humor on a wide variety
of topics.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Willingness to forgive can help bring love into a world of uncertainty
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your
will is strong, and what you want
may indeed be what is best for
everyone. However, you must be
careful not to overpower others
with your passion.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The
games you choose are hard
enough on their own, so theres
no need to put up with team
members who drag you down.
Seek those who are warm, sup-
portive and positive.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Multitasking will prove to be gen-
erally a rotten idea except in the
instances of listening to audio
books while traveling or making
phone calls while you walk an
unpopulated stretch of track or
sidewalk.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youll
act in a vigorous and determined
way to exert your authority and
have a meaningful impact. You
may spend time working out how
you might alter the behavior and
thinking of others.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). If youre
feeling discouraged, youll rely
too much on outer forces to
shape your path. Thats why you
need to make sure that youre
feeling enthusiastic.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Youll go
into the day with a take-charge
attitude, and youll use your
knowledge to alter your circum-
stances. Your winners mindset is
unstoppable.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). As much
as you may try to avoid being
the center of attention, the eye-
balls will still be trained on you.
It has to be this way because you
know what youre doing and you
need to teach others.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youll
be aware of how social condi-
tioning shapes behavior. The one
who is trying hard to live up to
an image of independence may
really need your help. Your com-
passion helps you see the truth.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You wont have time to be very
self-conscious, because youre so
focused on experiencing all you
can in one day. You may even
dare to sing solo in public or
dance for no reason.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Youre likely to put more empha-
sis on substance than form,
though not immediately. A lovely
package will draw you in. But you
wont stay in if theres nothing
compelling inside it.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
may be concerned about being
criticized or judged harshly, but
it doesnt keep you from putting
your best work out there for all
to see.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Youll be inspired by a person
who really seems to have it all
together. Youre already planning
your future involvement with
this person.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (March 7).
Though a playfulness dominates
your energy this year, make no
mistake: You still get plenty of
serious business accomplished.
Youll purposefully execute
new facets of your will through
the next 10 weeks. The cast of
characters in your personal life
changes a bit in May, and youll
enjoy fresh influences. Libra and
Scorpio people adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 7, 20, 1, 50
and 19.
