WILKES-BARRE A community
laid young Tyler Winstead to rest on
Wednesday.
Hundreds of family members,
friends and mourners packed the
Mount Zion Baptist Church on Hill
Street tobidfarewell tothe14-year-old
whowas shot todeathonly yards from
the church and his home last week.
Dozens of family members followed
as Tylers grandmother, Carol Golden,
entered the already-crowded church
shortly after 11 a.m. for Tylers home-
going service. Her legs were shaking
andshe leanedonher husband, Willie,
for support. Behind her she had what
seemed like hundreds to lean on as
well.
The city has seen through Tyler everything that is
good and that youth have to offer. It is our duty,
ladies and gentlemen, to make sure that his death
is not in vain. -- The Rev. Shawn Walker

Luzerne County interim Clerk

signed to oversee the county

Aformer county controller and
commissioner, Pizano was asked
tohandle the taskbecause he was
county election director for near-
ly12years until resigningin1993,
Packard said.

WILKES-BARRE In the courtroom,

satisfaction fromdefending the rights of

If electedto Congress, Cartwright, 50,

Luzerne County and Harveys
Lake officials reached an agree-
ment covering ambulance dis-
patches through 911.
The two sides met Tuesday re-
garding a change put in place last
October by the county that a bor-
ough official said had a potential
to slow responses.
They agreed to reinstate the
procedure used before the
change, said Rich Williams, depu-
ty emergency management coor-
dinator for the borough.
We will dual dispatch with
Kunkle, said Williams on
Wednesday.
Thechangewill takesometime
for thecountytoredesignits com-
puter-aided dispatch system, but
it will address the boroughs
shortage of volunteers during the
day time for ambulance calls, said
Williams.
Harveys Lake, which operates
entirely withvolunteers, reliedon
neighboring Kunkle in Dallas
Township for backup when the
borough could not assemble a full
crew. Both departments were dis-
patched simultaneously before
the change last year.
Weve done it for years, said
Williams.
Under the switch put in place
by911, unless thecountywas noti-
fied Harveys Lake did not have a
crew available, Kunkle would be
dispatched only after Harveys
Lake was called three times dur-
ing a nine-minute period with no
response.
There was a potential for de-
lay. There wasnt any (before),
said Williams.
Dissatisfied with the countys
handlingof theissue, theborough
called a press conference late last
month with other emergency re-
sponders in the Back Mountain.
The meeting Tuesday resolved
any differences, said Williams.
We really appreciate them
working with us on this, he said.
His wife, Amy Williams, a bor-
ough council member, and bor-
ough solicitor Charles McCor-
mick met with Robert Lawton,
county manager, and David Pars-
nik, 911 executive director.
Parsnik confirmed there was a
meeting, adding a decision was
reached. We have to implement
some new things.
He declined to provide any de-
tails at this time.
Williams summed it up, saying
the return to the old way means
both departments will be dis-
patched at the same time. What
that means for residents when
they call 911is, Somebodys com-
ing, he said.

WILKES-BARRE State po-
lice at Wyoming said a man who
was shot by a city police officer
early Monday morning was ar-
raigned Wednesday on charges
related to a home invasion.
The same day the officer who
shot James M. Rankin was clear-
ed of wrongdoing by the Luzerne
County district attorney and
Pennsylvania State Police.
Rankin, 21, of Carnegie, was
charged with aggravated assault,
robbery, burglary, prohibited of-
fensive weapon, possession of an
electronic incapacitation device,
theft and resisting arrest. State
police said bail was set at
$100,000.
Rankin was shot by a city po-
lice officer in the area of Laurel
Street and Jenks Lane after he al-
legedly fled an apartment on Kid-
der Street at about 4:30 a.m.
Monday.
State police allege Rankin
forced his way into an apartment
at 251 Kidder St. and was con-
fronted by Naeem Ford, 28, and
Margarita Martinez, 22. Rankin
stunnedthepair witha Taser dur-
ing a fight inside the apartment.
Rankin jumped through a
third-floor window and was
chasedby city police. State police
said Rankin refused commands
to get on the ground and made
suspicious movements reaching
to his waistband when he was
shot.
Rankinunderwent surgery and
remains hospitalized.
The city officer who shot Ran-
kin, who has not been identified
by authorities, was placed on ad-
ministrative paid leave after the
shooting.
District AttorneyStefanie Sala-
vantis said Wednesday that dis-
trict attorneys and state police
have completed their investiga-
tion into the home invasion and
have cleared the officer of any
wrongdoing.
The officer fired a single shot
as Rankin, standing between two
vehicles, appeared to reach for a
weapon, Salavantis said.
She said the officers name is
not being released at the time be-
ing because of a concern for the
officers safety, but will be made
public when information relating
to that concern is resolved.

WAVERLY -- Democrats who
conducted a policy committee
hearing Wednesday questioned
the necessity of the voter identifi-
cation law enacted last month
andthe struggles it couldpresent
to Pennsylvania voters, as did
many of those who testified
about the law at the Waverly
Community House.
State Rep. Sid Michaels Kavul-
ich, D-Taylor, requested the hear-
ing in his home district and
served as co-chairman.
The law slams the brakes on
progress made to provide greater
access to persons with disabili-
ties, said Keith Williams, Clarks
Green Borough Council presi-
dent, and a community organizer
for the Northeast Pennsylvania
Center for Independent Living.
The law requires voters to car-
ry a photo ID with an expiration
date issued by an approved agen-
cy. Acceptable documents in-
clude a drivers license, an ac-
credited state college or universi-
ty card, or one from a govern-
ment agency.
The lawwill be enforced in the
November general election; it
will not affect voters in the April
24 primary election.
Williams testified there are ap-
proximately 2 million people in
the state with disabilities, a fig-
ure that represents more than20
percent of potential voters.
Those individuals, he added, are
twice as likely to not possess a
drivers license, one of the most
common forms of photo identifi-
cation.
Desiree Hung, associate state
director for advocacy for AARP
Pennsylvania, added that the ex-
treme example of voter ID legis-
lation is similar to legislation
contested by the AARP in Ten-
nessee, New Hampshire, Maine,
Minnesota and seven other
states.
The photo identification law
places a severe burden on older
Pennsylvanians fundamental
right to vote, Hung said, largely
because older voters are signif-
icantly less likely to have photo
identification when compared
to other age groups.
Obviously, this issue is some-
thing that we think is a pretty im-
portant issue to the people of
Pennsylvania, to the extent that
we are preparing to file a lawsuit
to try and prevent it from going
intoplace because we thinkit vio-
lates peoples rights, said state
Rep. Mike Sturla, D-Lancaster,
committee chairman.
State Rep. Eddie Day Pashin-
ski, D-Wilkes-Barre, classifiedthe
ill-fated law as an act of sup-
pression that has beenbasedon
a false premise.
None of the 11 legislators who
presided over Wednesdays hear-
ing approvedthe bill that became
Act 19 of 2012 in March.

WILKES-BARREThe city is
not selling its parking assets
and there will be no option to
purchase them if they are
leased, Drew McLaughlin, the
citys administrative coordina-
tor, said Wednesday in response
to a concern raised by Karen
Ceppa Hirko, a frequent critic of
the administration and council.
Hirko is concerned the pro-
posed leasing of the citys park-
ing garages, surface lots and
parking meters actually consti-
tutes a sale. She cited the Inter-
nal Revenue Services 1031 Ex-
change rules as the source for
her theory. She said the IRS
code is obscure and could allow
the leasing company to assume
ownership if the lease termis 30
or 50 years. McLaughlin rebut-
ted Hirkos claim.
This is not applicable,
McLaughlin said. This isnt
what we are doing. KarenCeppa
Hirko is wrong in every way.
McLaughlin said when the
termon the lease expires in 30
or 50 years -- the assets will be
returned to the city in better
condition than at the start of the
lease. He said the citys intent
remains to pursue the feasibility
of a lease of all parking assets,
but not at any price.
If a beneficial deal does not
materialize then no lease agree-
ment will be executed,
McLaughlin said. We remain
confident that given the value of
the assets andthe unique invest-
ment opportunity that the city
offers, this lease proposal is a
viable option for the city to pur-
sue.
Mayor Tom Leighton an-
nounced the plan Monday, say-
ing that City Council must ap-
prove the solicitation of Re-
quests for Qualifications from
companies that may be interest-
ed in leasing the citys parking
assets. If the city seeks propos-
als, a minimum of $20 million
must be paidup front by the suc-
cessful bidder. The city would
also retain enforcement reve-
nues from the parking meters,
Leighton said.
At councils work session
Tuesday, Leighton said the RFQ
solicitation would be advertised
in professional trade journals
andbidrequests wouldgoout in
mid-May. He said a projected
settlement could come in late
November.
Hirko said it appears that
Leighton is trying to lease the
city property and at the end of
the lease, the leaseholder would
become the owner.
He is trying to sell the city
property without calling it a
sale, Hirko said. I fail to see
the financial benefit to the tax-
payers other than an immediate
infusion of cash.
There is no sale, McLaugh-
lin said. If it were a sale then
the parking assets would not be
returned to the city and the au-
thority at the end of the lease
agreement.
Parking may be leased, not sold

critic that city will retain
ownership of facilities.

WILKES-BARRE Jackie
Wallen choked back tears
Wednesday as she asked the
Wilkes-Barre Area School
Board to give her late stepson,
Joel Wallen, a diploma at gradu-
ation this spring, and let her
and the boys father walk across
the stage to accept it.
Joel Wallen died May 2010,
when he was struck by a car
while walking on the Cross Val-
ley Expressway. Were it not for
that tragedy at age 15, Jackie
Wallen noted, the Coughlin
High School quarterback
would be graduating. The di-
ploma would give the family
some closure and likely be well
received by the students, she
said.
More than half of those kids
were at my sons memorial,
she said.
The passionate plea left the
crowded room stone silent, un-
til Superintendent Jeff Namey
replied. The district will award
an honorary diploma for the
first time ever he said, and
the school was planning a short
memorial program for Joel at
the graduation. But the parents
would not be allowed to walk
on stage.
After several muted attempts
by Jackie Wallen to change his
mind, Namey repeated the dis-
trict believes graduation is a
day for the students, and that
policy does not allow parents
on the stage.
The scene came near the end
of a long public-comment ses-
sion devoted mostly to ques-
tions from the audience about
the fate of Meyers High School
and the status of a districtwide
internal study of school build-
ings and curriculum.
Namey and Board President
Mary Anne Toole repeatedly
stressed the study is a first step
in developing a comprehensive
plan for the district, and that no
school closings are on the table
at this time.
Meyers is of particular con-
cern, however, because of a wa-
ter main leak under the base-
ments thick concrete floor that
has defied efforts to locate it,
including recent use of ground
radar. At Wednesdays meeting
the board voted unanimously
to award a $46,440 contract to
A&E Group Inc. of Wilkes-
Barre to design a fix that will
run a new main above ground
and cut off the underground
line. The cost of the actual work
wont be known until it is bid
out.
The board also approved
next years school calendar, set-
ting the first day of classes on
Aug. 27 and the last day on June
4, 2013, with June 7-13 as desig-
nated make-up days for snow
days or other cancellations.

with two counts of terroristic
threats, and one count each of
harassment and fugitive from

Luzerne County Correctional
Facility for lack of $10,000 bail.
City police allege Molina
threatened an ex-girlfriend and

robbery in NewYork, according
to the criminal complaints.

KINGSTON Gene Stilp,
Democratic candidate in the
11th Congressional District, is
objectingtothe League of Wom-
enVoters policytonot allowvid-
eo recording at tonights debate
with Bill Vinsko.
The debate will be at Wyom-
ing Seminarys Buckingham
Performing Arts Center,
Sprague Avenue, Kingston, at 7
p.m. The winner in the April 24
Democratic primary will chal-
lenge incumbent U.S. Rep. Lou
Barletta, R-Hazleton, in the gen-
eral election on Nov. 6. Ques-
tions will be collected from the
audience and relayed to the can-
didates through
moderator and
league board
member Mis-
chelle Anthony.
Susan Ferenti-
no, president of the League of
Women Voters, said the candi-
dates and audience members
will not be permitted to video/
audio tape, but media is wel-
come to cover the event.
This is done to ensure the
nonpartisan reputation of the
league and to protect candi-
dates fromany information that
is sharedat theevent frombeing
recorded and used for biased or
out of context purposes, she
said.
Vinsko said he felt it was
wrongfor Stilptocondemnthe
league for all the great work it
does.
Hereyouhaveanot-for-profit
organization and a group of vol-
unteers providing an opportuni-
ty for voters to see and hear the
candidates, Vinsko said. I
think its unfair for anyone to
take shots at the League of
Women Voters because they are
doing this service free of
charge.
Vinsko said he welcomes vid-
eos and free speech, but he will
follow the leagues policy. Stilp
saidhewill not recordtheevent.
Stilp at first thought the
league was banning all record-
ing at the debate, but learned
Wednesday that media will be
allowed to record the event.
Stilp objected and sent a letter
to Ferentino and Cheryl Dehaut
questioning the elimination of
the publics right to record
sound and video at the debate.
Stilp said Wednesday that
transparency is necessary so
that the voters canhave as many
facts as possible and that open
recording would help the voters
decide who they will vote for in
the April 24 primary election.
This is still a matter of First
Amendment rights, Stilp said.
Its still a form of censorship.
Anybody in the room should be
able to record whatever they
want.
Stilp asked the league to
change its new unfair policy
for tonights debate.
This is America. This is
Pennsylvania. This is theWyom-
ing Valley, Stilp said. We still
have the First Amendment here,
and the league should be fight-
ing to enhance the First Amend-
ment not to censor it.

WILKES-BARRE Though she faces
no primary election opponent, Laureen
Cummings wanted to introduce herself
to Luzerne County voters Wednesday
andexplainwhyshehopes
to serve the states 17th
District in Congress next
year.
The Republican from
Old Forge had entered the
U.S. Senate race last year
to try to unseat Bob Casey, D-Scranton,
but the state Republican Party ap-
proached her in December after redis-
tricting maps were approved and asked
her to instead run for the House.
Sheobligedandwill likelyfacethewin-
ner of the Democratic primary contest
between incumbent U.S. Rep. Tim Hold-
en, D-St. Clair, and Moosic attorney Matt
Cartwright.
Speaking in front of the county cour-
thouse, Cummings said that even with a
huge registration disparity between
Democrats and Republicans in the six-
county district, she believes issues, not
party, will matter most.
As one of the founders of the Scranton
Tea Party, she said the goal is to protect
the Constitution and change Washing-
ton.
We dont believe in Republican or
Democrat. We believe in the American
people, said the 47-year-old mother of
four and grandmother of three.
She fought hard to get U.S. Rep. Lou
Barletta elected two years ago when
much of Lackawanna and Luzerne coun-
ties were locatedinthe11thCongression-
al District and she said she was proud of
the campaign that defeated long-time in-
cumbent Democrat Paul Kanjorski.
But the lines were redrawn and Barlet-
tas district was shifted south, leaving
people such as Cummings with another
uphill battle to try to unseat another en-
trenched Democratic representative.
Cummings, who owns Lorimar Home
Care, a private duty nursing and staffing
agency in Old Forge, said her platform is
to stop out-of-control spending and to
make sure government operates on a
smaller scalebut keeps acloser eyeonup-
holding the Constitution.
The17th District serves all or portions
of Lackawanna, Luzerne, Northampton,
Monroe, Carbon and Schuylkill counties.

WILKES-BARRE With an easy
smile and convincing story of beating
the odds herself, Maria Montero told16
local Latino high school students gath-
ered at Kings College on Wednesday
that if they stay focused and work hard,
they can overcome language, cultural
and fiscal barriers.
I had a child when I was in college,
said Montero, the executive director of
Gov. Tom Corbetts Commission on La-
tino affairs and Commission for Wom-
en. I took care of my son and worked
through the day and went to school at
night for 3 1/2 years.
Montero came to Kings courtesy of
two programs working together, the
Kings College McGowan Hispanic Ou-
treach program and the Regional Edu-
cation Academy for Careers in Health
Higher Education Initiative (REACH-
HEI) set up by The Commonwealth
Medical College in partnership with
colleges and universities, including
Kings.
The goal of REACH-HEI is to help ec-
onomically disadvantaged high school
students pursue a career in the medical
field. Through a federal grant, the pro-
gramoffers mentoring, classes and oth-
er support for the last three years of
high school, as well as guidance
through college.
The McGowan Spanish Outreach
program offers a wide range of pro-
grams for adults and students in the La-
tinocommunity, tryingtobridge cultur-
al and language gaps for newcomers.
Kings spokesmanJohnMcAndrewsaid
using the outreach program was the
quickest way for the college to help stu-
dents get into REACH-HEI this year.
Montero, 35, talked of the poverty
her father experienced as a child in Pe-
ru, where there were 30 families shar-
ing one bathroom, as well as the hard
work her mothers parents did as coal
mining immigrants of Irish and Italian
descent. Immigrants have traditionally
worked hard, she said, because they be-
lieve their new home afforded opportu-
nity for a better life for their children.
We have what is called immigrant
zeal, the Coaldale native currently liv-
ing in Hometown told students from
GAR, Meyers and Greater Nanticoke
Area high schools. Thats what makes
the United States stronger and better
every day.
Asked about local prejudice against
immigrants, particularly Hispanics,
Montero noted similar prejudice was
expressed against the Irish and Italian
immigrants on her mothers side, and
that the important message to the stu-
dents is the same now as then. They
can achieve despite the negativism.
Monteros visit was sandwiched be-
tween a class on obesity management
and a diversity workshop for the stu-
dents. Asked about her talk, Coughlin
student Saray Sosa, who hopes to study
political science in college, said shes
nice, then added, She gives inspira-
tion to a lot of people.
Kings College-Commonwealth Medical College program aims to
help local Latino students pursue a career in the medical field

SCRANTON Afederal judge
on Wednesday denied a request
by defendants in the kids-for-
cash lawsuits that would have
allowed themto showreports re-
lating to crimes the juveniles al-
legedly committed to victims
and witnesses of those offenses.
Attorneys for PAChildCare ju-
venile detention center and its
related entities sought to alter a
protective order that precluded
them from showing certain doc-
uments to anyone but attorneys
andothers who are involvedinli-
tigating the case.
PAChildCareis amongthede-
fendants who remain in a class-
action suit that seeks damages
for juveniles who allege they
were wrongly incarcerated as
part of a scheme to enrich the
centers owners and two former
county judges.
The defendants sought per-
mission to contact reported vic-
tims of the juveniles and show
them police reports and other
court documents that would re-
fresh their memories regarding
the crime that was committed
against them. The attorneys ar-
gued that investigation was cru-
cial to their defense because it
would show some juveniles
wouldhave beenincarceratedre-
gardless of the alleged conspir-
acy.
U.S. District Judge A. Richard
Caputo on Wednesday denied
the motion, saying the privacy
interests of the juveniles out-
weighed any harmthat would be
done to the defendants by pre-
cluding them from releasing the
information.
In his ruling, Caputo said de-
fendants were seeking to re-liti-
gate the underlying criminal
cases against the juveniles.
Those convictions had been
overturnedby the state Supreme
Court, whichdeterminedformer
judge MarkCiavarella hadviolat-
ed juveniles rights to a fair trial.
Whether a particular juvenile
would have been declared delin-
quent if given due process would
require a fair retrial of the juve-
nile. Suchanexercise is inconsis-
tent with the expungement on
the basis that the juvenile was
denied due process, Caputo
said.

SCRANTON A federal judge
on Wednesday ruled former state
Sen. Robert Mellows guilty plea
hearing will be held in Scranton
instead of Philadelphia, where it
was initially scheduled.
U.S. District Judge Joel H.
Slomsky, acting at the request of
the U.S. Attorneys Office, sched-
uled the hearing for 9 a.m. April
27 in the U.S. District Court for
the Middle District of Pennsylva-
nia.
In a related matter, Slomsky on
Wednesday denied U.S. Attorney
Peter J. Smiths request to seal a
letter he wrote to Slomsky re-
questing Mellows case be trans-
ferred to Scranton. Slomsky or-
dered the clerk of courts to un-
seal that document, as well as a
letter Mellows attorney hadwrit-
ten in response.
Mellow was charged last
month with conspiracy to com-
mit mail fraud for using Senate
staff to perform campaign work
on state time. He has signed a
plea agreement with prosecutors
and was originally scheduled to
appear before Slomsky, whopres-
ides in federal court in Philadel-
phia, on April 27.
In his letter seeking to transfer
the hearing to Scranton, Smith
noted Mellow is a well-known
public figure who served in the
stateSenatefor 40years. As such,
his case is of great interest to resi-
dents in the Scranton area.
Mellows attorney, Daniel
Brier, objectedtotransferringthe
case, saying that Smiths state-
ment that the move is in the pub-
lic interest is unfounded and un-
dermined by the governments
decision to file the request under
seal.
Smiths motion to seal his let-
ter cited a need to preserve the
integrity of this ongoing case, as
the justification for seeking keep-
ing his letter from public view.
The motion does not further ex-
plainhowa letter askinga case be
heldinone courthouse versus an-
other would be something that
could harm the integrity of the
case.
Melissa Melewsky, an attorney
for the Pennsylvania Newspaper
Publishers Association, said she
cant understand why Smith
would seek to seal the letter, par-
ticularly since he was citing the
interests of the public in arguing
to transfer the case.
There needs to be an impor-
tant public reason. I dont see
that reason in this case. Obvious-
ly the judge didnt either, Me-
lewsky said. Its great that a
judge recognized the presum-
ption of access and the high bur-
den that must accompany any
kind of request to seal.

move because case is of great

WILKES-BARRE TWP. Ker-
win Gobin initially claimed he
was mugged by a muscular man
driving a green-colored vehicle
on Blackman Street on Sunday.
An investigation and blood
found inside a blue car allegedly
showed Gobin was the offender.
Gobin, of Brooklyn, N.Y., was
arraigned by District Judge Mi-
chael Dotzel on four counts of
robbery, and one count each of
aggravated assault, simple as-
sault, theft and terroristic
threats. He was jailed at the Lu-
zerne County Correctional Facil-
ity for lack of $10,000 bail.
According to the criminal com-
plaint:
Gobin was found by a home-
owner on Blackman Street on
Sunday morning bleeding from
his neck just before10 a.m. Gobin
told police he was walking when
he was attacked by a knife-wield-
ing man driving a green-colored
vehicle.
Township police said they
were unable to find any evidence
or blood spatter on the ground
where Gobin claimed he was
stabbed.
Gobin was treated at Geisinger
Wyoming Valley Medical Center
in Plains Township, police said.
When township police relayed
to Luzerne County 911 about the
green car, they learned Brett Tay-
lor was at the Wilkes-Barre City
Police Headquarters reportinghe
was robbed at knifepoint on
Blackman Street.
Taylor, who was treated at
Wilkes-Barre General Hospital
for injuries to his hand, said he
was giving Gobin a ride home
when Gobin pulled a knife and
demanded money on Blackman
Street intheareaof Skateway, the
complaint says.
Taylor said he struggled with
Gobin over the knife that cut his
hand.
Townshippolice saidthere was
blood spattered inside Taylors
blue car.

uled on April 18 before Dotzel.

tain Inn in Plains Township.
The award hadnt been issued
since 2007 but was revived this

Its sort of overwhelming, Co-
nyngham said. Im deeply hum-
bled.
The local businessman and for-
mer chairman of the CSCs board
was honored for his years of ser-
vicenot onlywiththeCSC, but for
other community activities and

chairman from 1990 to 1992.
Whilestill activeintheCSC, heal-
so served as chairman of the
board for the United Way of
Wyoming Valley from 2000 to
2002.
Given the family history, you
might say Conynghams connec-
tion with the CSCis in his blood.
AConynghamhas been associ-
ated with the organization since
its inception in1862.
Conynghams great-great-
grandmother, Ruth Ann Butler
Conyngham, was a charter mem-
ber of the Board of Lady Manag-
ers a group of women who cre-
ated the Home for Friendless
Childrenandmappedits dailyop-

drens Service Center.
Conynghams father, Guthrie,
and uncle Bill were longtime
members of the board of direc-
tors.
It feels great tobeabletocarry
on the heritage of my family, Co-
nynghamsaid.

SAN FRANCISCO
Panel: Spray unreasonable
A
University of California task force
said Wednesday that UC Davis
police should not have used pepper-
spray on student demonstrators in an
incident that prompted national out-
rage and calls for the chancellors resig-
nation after online videos of the con-
frontation went viral.
The officers decision to douse pep-
per-spray on a seated line of Occupy
protesters was objectively unreason-
able and not authorized by campus
policy, according to the report by a UC
Davis task force created to investigate
the incident.
Officers involved in the incident said
they felt they needed to use pepper
spray because they believed they were
surrounded by a hostile crowd, but the
investigation suggested that was not
the case, according to the report.
LOS ANGELES
Houstons death accidental
Beverly Hills police say they have
concluded Whitney Houstons death
investigation and found no signs that a
crime occurred.
Lt. Mark Rosen said Wednesday the
determination was made after review-
ing the Grammy-winning singers full
autopsy report, which attributed her
death to accidental drowning. Coro-
ners officials ruled heart disease and
cocaine use contributed to the 48-year-
old singers death.
Houston died in a bathtub of the
Beverly Hilton Hotel on Feb. 11 on the
eve of the Grammy Awards. She had
been planning a comeback, including a
starring role in the remake of the film
Sparkle, which is due for release later
this year.
CORCORAN, CALIF.
Parole for Manson rejected
A prison panel denied parole
Wednesday to mass murderer Charles
Manson in his 12th and probably final
bid for freedom.
Manson, now a gray-bearded, 77-
year-old, did not attend the hearing
where the parole board ruled he had
shown no efforts to rehabilitate himself
and would not be eligible for parole for
another 15 years.
Also playing heavily into the boards
decision was something Manson had
said recently to one of his prison psy-
chologists that Peck read aloud.
Im special. Im not like the average
inmate, Peck said. I have spent my
life in prison. I have put five people in
the grave. I am a very dangerous man.

Sewer system bids set
to be opened April 27
The sewer authority an-
nounced Monday that bids for a
proposed sanitary sewage sys-
tem will be opened on April 27,
at 7 p.m., at special meeting at
the borough building.
The authority, through the
Quad 3 Group, began accepting
bids for the project earlier this
month. Reports indicate that
there have been 15 bidders. A
pre-bid conference was held last
week. Presently, the overall cost
has been estimated by engineers
at $9 million.
Generally, it was stated by
Sally DiRico, secretary, that
issues surrounding undeveloped
property in the borough were
also discussed, as were restric-
tions imposed by the U.S. De-
partment of Agriculture for
funding of undeveloped land.
There was also communi-
cation from the Luzerne Soil
Conservation District, in which
David Pekar, chairman said, it
raised questions and asked for
clarification in a permit process
being conducted for Nuangola.
DiRico said the authority,
besides the special session, has
scheduled a regular meeting on
Monday, April 23 at 7 p.m.

Two new township
firefighters take oath
Two firefighters were sworn
in by District Judge James Dix-
on at a meeting of the Board of
Supervisors on Tuesday night.
James Roslevich and Theo-
dore Kubitz, both volunteers
with the Harwood Volunteer
Fire Co., took the oath.
Board Chairman William
Gallagher said he was proud of
the service provided by the
volunteers in their effort to keep
residents of the community safe.
In another matter, the board
voted to amend the existing
drug and bath salt ordinances,
making enforcement the respon-
sibility of the police and law
enforcement rather than code
enforcement officers.
We felt the ordinance would
be more effective if amended in
this way, said Charles Pedri,
township solicitor.
Also, Gallagher issued a re-
minder that the burning ban
was in effect and would be
strictly enforced.
It just takes one violation of
the provisions of this ban to
result in tragedy, said Gallagh-
er. Residents would receive
citations and not just warnings
for any burning infractions, he
said.
In another matter, Supervisor
Andrew Benyo said UGI was
doing a feasibility study in re-
gard to running a gas line in the
Chapel Hill area. He said resi-
dents had requested the study
and he would report back to the
board with its results when they
were received.
Benyo also said the township
road department was moving
forward with its paving project
and hot patching projects within
the township, and that they
would be completed on time.
The next meeting of the Ha-
zle Township Board of Super-
visors will be on May 7.

Railroad St. project
center of debate
Last months Borough Coun-
cil meeting included an argu-
ment among council members
over a project on Railroad
Street. Tuesday night, Council-
man Al Akulonis Jr. questioned
the minutes of last months
meeting.
At the meeting, Council Presi-
dent Audrey Marcinko apol-
ogized for her mistake with
awarding a job to Bejeski Con-
struction without consulting the
other council members first.
Akulonis asked the borough
solicitor Donald Frederickson if
any violations of the borough
code and ethics were found
against Marcinko. Frederickson
said there were not.
He said it is not a criminal
matter, and by the council ap-
proving the bills of the project
after the fact last meeting, there
is no violation in borough code
or ethics.
But Akulonis and Councilman
McGlynn said they still disagree
with how it was all handled. To
which Councilwoman Lois
Hanczyc responded by asking
Akulonis, How many months
do you have to bring this up?
Some in the public audience
said they approved of the end
result of the project on Railroad
Street. Others indicated support
for Akulonis.
Akulonis and McGlynn voted
against accepting the minutes
concerning last months argu-
ment. The language doesnt
sound right as recorded in the
minutes, McGlynn said.
In another matter, Council-
man Frank Groblewski an-
nounced a pavilion to host a
trailer loaded with sandbags has
been erected on Foote Avenue.
He said the sandbags are part of
the emergency plan for flood
and high waters, and are ready
for any event.
A portion of the borough was
badly flooded last September
when the Lackawanna River
backed up after the Susquehan-
na River rose to record highs.
Marcinko said the borough is
in a state of readiness and the
council has been vigilant.

Supervisors discuss
paving Heslop Road
Supervisor Chairman Miller
Stella on Tuesday night said it
would be foolish to repave a
township road that may bear
excess weight this year.
A Pennsylvania Game Com-
mission representative contact-
ed Stella, who also serves as the
townships roadmaster, to say
the commission was looking to
begin logging state game lands
adjacent to Heslop Road, which
Stella has said in the past is in
bad need of repaving.
Stella said Heslop is the only
road logging trucks could use to
reach the timber.
The project would not begin
until October and continue until
March of next year.
"At this time, if we went
ahead with the paving, it would
be a ludicrous move on our
part," Stella said.
The township instituted a
10-ton weight limit on the road,
which demands a bond in place
for damages, but the supervisors
were concerned that if they
repaved and even documented
their works quality Heslop Road
would not be returned to its
finished state when the logging
was complete.
Stella said that the township
has the funds and repaving
Heslop is priority number one,
however supervisors have to
wait for more information from
the state to move further.
Also, Solicitor William Higgs
received a letter last month
from the attorney representing
Nuangola Borough, about the
request for property protection
they made last month.
Nuangola, in the planning
stages of a sewer line project
that will pass through Rice
Township, said its will honor
the request and guarantee no
property damage only for the
township.
Some residents say they are
concerned they might get
caught up in a lawsuit if the
borough denies responsibility
for potential damages.
Higgs suggested residents
acquire additional water tests
for iron and magnesium, as
these elements will not be test-
ed for in the contractors survey
and can often pollute ground-
water after blasting.
Higgs said the projects engi-
neering firm, Quad 3 of Wilkes-
Barre, which also has the Rice
Township engineers contract,
has not decided if blasting will
be necessary at all.
Kevin McDonald, a resident
who raised $5,000 last year to
promote fish life in the town-
ships Ice Lakes, asked what was
being done with the money.
McDonald said he fishes the
lakes about three times a week
with his dog and he hopes the
money will help.
The (lakes need) a chance,
and this $5,000 was to propaga-
te aquatic life, McDonald said.
Stella said that the money
was still in a fund and that the
company Ecological Solutions is
to conduct plant life surveys
before any repopulation begins.
McDonald said, if it were
needed, he would be happy to
raise money every year for the
lakes.

NESCOPECK
Council rejects union
action for ex-chief
Council voted unanimously
Monday night to reject a griev-
ance resolution from Teamster
Local 764 on behalf of former
police chief Jim Disidoro.
Instead council moved for-
ward with plans to reorganize
and reform the department after
a discharge action taken in
March against Disidoro.
With six of seven members in
attendance, the vote was 6-0.
In its grievance, the Team-
sters, through agent James
Litle, asked that Disidoro be
restored immediately to his post
with full pay and that a $10,000
contribution be made to his
retirement fund. Instead, at the
initiative of Paul Nye, chairman
of the police committee, council
voted to reject all of these de-
mands.
The matter was referred to
Anthony McDonald of the law
firm of Bull, Bull & Knecht. Nye
mentioned that, at McDonalds
recommendation, steps have
also been taken to secure a
lawyer specializing in labor law
to represent the borough in the
Disidoro case.
Councilman Dick Powlus, a
member of the police commit-
tee, received support when he
proposed that a new computer
be purchased for the police at a
cost of $783.95, including the
computer, software and surge
protector. The purchase will be
from the Power Micro firm. In
addition, council discussed
other electronic programs which
are designed to speed the proc-
essing of forms and documents
by the police.
Mayor Tim Kelchner said the
department has spent more
than 105 man hours so far reor-
ganizing files and official proce-
dures.
Council President Sandy
Wright said Were re-evaluating
everything and while these
changes are necessary . . . we
have to stay within the budget
of a small community. She
commented in response to re-
quests discussed by Michael
Eyer, acting officer-in-charge.
She said the 2012 budget is
$340,000.
It was decided to conduct a
police committee meeting on
Monday at 6:30 p.m. that will be
open to the public. Initially it
was suggested that the meeting
be closed. Powlus, however, said
police issues need to be dis-
cussed in public.
Besides the police, Powlus,
who also chairs the street com-
mittee, announced that Ne-
scopeck has been in receipt of
$46,264 in state liquor fuels
funds for 2012.
Councilman Dave Madara
received support for the pur-
chase of surveillance cameras
for $2,589 from American Tech-
nologies. The cameras are in-
tended to be positioned at the
recreation field.
Councilman Joseph Coakley
read a report that extensive
repairs are needed at the sewage
treatment plant, and Stacie
Kachkurka, secretary-treasurer,
stated she has been informed by
the Federal Emergency Manage-
ment Agency that $29,367 is
forthcoming for expenses in-
curred in September 2011 for
flood clean up.
Council agreed to a proposal
to relocate traffic and parking
signs on Raber and Dewey
streets.
At the request of veterans
groups, Council endorsed the
annual Memorial Day Parade,
May 27, along Route 93, Third
Street, from10 a.m. to noon.

WILKES-BARRE An Exeter
couple charged with taking more
than $500,000 from the estate of a
late labor leader will stand trial on
relatedchargesinOctober, acounty
judge said Tuesday.
Joel Riegel, 74, and Gloria Bart-
nicki Riegel, 63, of Memorial
Street, appeared Tuesday in Lu-
zerne County Court, where Judge
Fred Pierantoni scheduled an Oct.
29trial for thecouple, whoprosecu-
tors say began taking money in
2005 from the estate of Anthony
Kane.
Kane passed away in December
2001.
TheRiegels attorney, Demetrius
Fannick, saidthe evidence phase of
the case is complete, and that any
requests in the case have not yet
been filed. Joel and Gloria Riegel
each face charges of theft by failure
to make required disposition of
funds and criminal conspiracy.
Investigators say the estates as-
sets were earmarkedfor the United
Way of Wyoming Valley, and the
two began taking the money in
2005.
Kane, who served as president
of the Wyoming Valley West
School District teachers union,
was a supporter of the United
Wayandleft the bulkof his estate
to the agency after his death in
December 2001.
The Riegels served as execu-
tors until 2007. The value of the
estate plummeted from $1.3 mil-
lion to just $2,425 during their
tenure, according to accounting
conducted as part of a civil case
involving the United Way.
An investigation conducted by
the Charitable Trusts Unit, a civil
branch of the Attorney Generals
Office, and the estates newexec-
utor alleged the Riegels spent
hundreds of thousands of dollars
on personal expenses, including
golf memberships, jewelry and
lawn care.
Thecriminal charges arebased
on an investigation by the crimi-
nal unit of the Attorney Generals
Office, which is prosecuting the
case. The charges allege the Rie-
gels wrote more than $150,000
worth of checks to themselves
and took roughly $380,000 from
the sale of a mortgage that was
supposedtobedepositedintothe
estate.

YATESVILLEAlocal stateleg-
islator views aGeorgiainitiativeas
a potential solution for Pennsylva-
nias transportation-funding chal-
lenges.
At a public hearing today in the
Pittston Area High School audito-
rium, state Rep. Mike Carroll, D-
Avoca, will host a House Demo-
cratic Policy Committee hearing
on transportation issues. About a
dozen representatives from across
the state will participate in the
hearing, whichisopentothepublic
starting at 10 a.m.
In addition to hearing about
road, bridge and other transporta-
tion issues from across the state
and in District 4 in particular, the
panel will hear from Doug Call-
away, the executive director of the
Georgia TransportationAlliance.
Callaway will describe the Geor-
giaTransportationAct of 2010that
dividedthestateinto12special tax
districts, allowing each district to
approve a1percent sales tax for 10
years to be used for local transpor-
tation projects. If more money is
generated than needed, the tax
wouldend. The planwill gobefore
voters this summer.
Carroll said a local example
could be PennDOT District 4,
whichserves Pike, Wayne, Susque-
hanna, Wyoming, Lackawannaand
Luzerne counties.
Its not the total solution to the
transportation issues in the state,
Carroll said. We have to try alter-
native solutions.
For years, transportation de-
bates in Pennsylvania have been
marked by battles between urban
centers and rural areas, Carroll
said.
He said this plan takes that ar-
gument away, because each dis-
trict would approve or reject using
locally generated funds to pay for
local projects, frombusandrail ser-
vicetoroadandbridgework. Heal-
so stressed that money from this
initiative would supplement fund-
ing the region already receives,
which amounts to about $140 mil-
lionthis year.
He saidanadded1percent sales
tax in District 4 would generate
about $40 million annually and
whilethat wouldnt beacure-all for
local transportation projects, its
no doubt a step.
The hearing today could last up
to three hours and security will di-

Carroll saidboththestateHouse

Republican/Democrat Policy
Committee turned down his re-
quest toholdahearingontheplan.
He saidhe couldintroduce a bill
by summer using feedback he gets
at the hearing.

WILKES-BARRE A Luzerne
County judge has scheduled a trial
date in the case of a Wilkes-Barre
Township resident who claims the
townshipfirechief defamedhimat a
council meeting.
Judge Michael Vough scheduled
anOct. 15trial dateinthelawsuit fil-
ed by Joseph Na-
perkowski, who
alleged in a Sep-
tember 2009
complaint that
John Yuknavich
made false and
defamatory
statementsabout
him.
If thecaseissettledbeforethetrial
date, Vough said, attorneys are re-
quired to notify him by telephone
and a written notice. If the trial is to
commence, apretrial hearingwill be
held on Oct. 5, Vough said in court
papers.
Naperkowski said in the suit that
statements made by Yuknavich
aboutNaperkowski arefalseandde-
famatory and were heard and un-
derstood by everyone present at the
June1, 2009, meeting.
Yuknavich stated at the meeting
that Naperkowski said to him, Ill
kill you; Ill kill your mother; Ill kill
your familyandIll evenkill themay-
or if he dont straightenyouout, ac-
cording to the lawsuit.
Naperkowski says Yuknavich act-
ed maliciously, recklessly and in
bad faith.
Thewordsutteredbythedefend-
ant were false and untrue and were
known by (Yuknavich) to be untrue
when he uttered and published
them, the lawsuit says.
Naperkowski, through his attor-
ney, Charles A. Shaffer, originally
asked that a judgment be entered in
his favor for $50,000.
Yuknavich, who is represented by
attorney Brooks Foland, of Harris-
burg, said in court papers in re-
sponse to the lawsuit, that the state-
ments should be considered his
opinion.
Yuknavichallegedthedefamation
claim should be barred because the
statement was made at a public
meetingandthat heisimmunefrom
the lawsuit in his capacity as fire
chief.
Yuknavich, who is facing theft
charges in his role as fire chief, re-
cently resigned as a township road
worker.
State police allege Yuknavich, 48,
of East Northampton Street, stole
$11,865 from the fire departments
bankaccountbetweenOctober2008
and August 2010, and used the de-
partments credit card at Sams Club
for $3,706 in personal purchases.

Falls homeowner feels
flooded village forgotten
I
ts very nice to see all the flood-recovery
help that the populated areas Tunk-
hannock, West Pittston, all down the
line are getting.
A nice news article was done on the 10
volunteers helping to clean the riverbanks
in Falls. But the fact is, our once beautiful
village looks as though its still September
2011.
Falls looks like a war zone: piles of de-
bris, sheds, siding, you name it. Its heart-
breaking.
Its good to see areas getting back to
normal. But our little village, tucked away,
has all but been forgotten. The people of
Falls want to move on, too, and get back to
some kind of normal.
Its been eight months since the flood.
Homeowners are left to repair and rebuild;
but with all the effort, we look around only
to be reminded that were left on our own.
Id like to know why all this funding and
government help has not reached our
village. Falls needs Dumpsters, machines
and hundreds of volunteers. With all these
agencies, why are we left without support?
We need help.

Paul would be champion
for change, Constitution
W
hile there are some decent politicians
out there, the majority of them appar-
ently are serving their own egos
more than our country.
Newt Gingrich has an issue with his ego,
as he seemingly is only staying in this race
for the Republican presidential nomination
to sell books, his idea of a moon colony
and to be a part of this historic race.
Mitt Romney is this rich elitist who
struggles to act like the certain crowd he
addresses, such as Southerners or people
from Michigan. Remember the trees are
just the right height comment in Detroit?
Hes just distancing himself from average
Americans.
Theres one man who doesnt greedily
think about being president every time he
goes to sleep, but instead thinks of what he
can do to actually restore the countrys
sanity. Its good ol Pittsburgh native Ron
Paul. Hes not running to run our lives, but
to make every decision based on what the
Constitution allows.
Hes the champion of freedom and truly
wants to make changes in this country,
changes of which some people are afraid.
Its because most voters, specifically the
50-plus crowd, vote for bland politicians
who in the end just brainwash us with lies.
We are headed for more financial disas-
ter and the $15 trillion debt we face will
only get bigger if the federal government
doesnt watch what it spends. We need to
get out of these pointless wars, stop polic-
ing the world and have the troops back
home to defend our country.
It seems that every news pundit is de-
claring Romney the presumed nominee.
All 24-hour news stations have Romney
first in the delegate race and Paul last. The
delegate count as of now is just a guessti-
mate, because no one will know the exact
number for each candidate until the party
convention months from now. So far, Ron
Paul has been winning the majority, if not
all, of the delegates in most local district
caucuses nationwide. Those delegates then
go to the state convention at which theyre
nominated to the party convention. This is
why Dr. Paul is still in the race, because his
campaign knows the rules of the game.
Quite frankly this strategy could send
shock waves if there is a brokered conven-
tion.
Lastly, I hope for my generations sake
that you wont keep voting for people who
dont respect the Constitution and who
continue to work in a government that
probes our lives. I plead for you to ignore
the lies of the media and to vote Ron Paul.
A vote for Paul is a vote for change,
peace and individual liberty!

Writer says signs needed
at levee trail intersection
M
any people who use the Susquehanna
River levee trail system might be
unaware that there is vehicle access to
Nesbitt Park that intersects the walking
path north of the Pierce Street bridge in
Kingston. If this is not apparent to people
using the trail, they will not be cautious
when approaching the intersection.
I propose signs and a crosswalk be in-
stalled to make this dangerous intersection
more apparent.
This is a blind intersection for those
people walking north because they cannot
see drivers approaching from First Avenue.
Because the road curves, drivers, who are
coming up an incline, cannot see people
who are using the trail, especially as they
look to the right (toward Pierce Street).
To ensure the safety of walkers, runners
and cyclists, signs should face trail users at
either side of this intersection. Also, signs
should be placed along the roadway to
make drivers aware of pedestrians and
cyclists, and to remind them to yield. Fi-
nally, a white crosswalk should be painted
on the roadway to make this intersection
more apparent.

Taxpayers butt of joke
that is House Bill 2137
C
oncerning the recent HB 2137 property
tax legislation that passed the state
House: Instead of eliminating the
cursed property taxes, the bill that is head-
ed to the Senate allows for a delay/com-
pletion of court-ordered reassessments.
The county officials saw the handwriting
on the wall that it was stupid for them to
reassess in the midst of an economic de-
pression, which gave homeowners access
to many low comparables. With a housing
glut and very few people buying high-end
properties, its not fiscally sound for the
counties at this time.
Of course, theyll opt for a delay until
this depression subsides and the housing
market rebounds. Then, homeowners
wont be able to find low comparables, and
the counties will be laughing all the way to
the bank with money the public really
doesnt have. The joke of HB 2137 is on us!
Not so funny!

Rohrer should replace
Casey in U.S. Senate
U
.S. Sen. Bob Casey should be booted
out of office. Not only did Casey vote
for 99 percent of President Obamas
agenda the last 3 years, he also went
back on his pro-life promises.
He also, when running six years ago for
Senate, was furious at the gas prices that
were $1.79 a gallon; but now that gas pric-
es are $4.01 per gallon, Casey is silent.
We need a candidate we can trust, and
that is Sam Rohrer. Sam, when working in
the state House of Representatives, never
voted for a tax hike. Sam was the author of
the original property tax elimination bill,
which would have eliminated school prop-
erty taxes, but which was struck down by a
Democratic House.
This is the kind of man we need in the
U.S. Senate. Sam is pro-life, pro-gun and
for limited government. We need Sam
Rohrer for U.S. Senate.

HE TREMENDOUS
success of Pennsylva-
nias bid to encourage
the growth of the nat-
ural gas industry has worked so
well that the market risks col-
lapsing due to a glut of gas.
The price of natural gas hit its
peak in July 2008 at $10.79 per
1,000 cubic feet in the very early
days of the expansion of drilling
in the Northern Tier. The price
of natural gas has fallen below
$2 per 1,000 cubic feet. Experts
warn that if demand does not
catch up with supply, prices
couldtumble below$1per1,000
feet.
A number of gas companies
have announced plans to scale
back drilling activity as the
priceof natural gashasdropped.
While the lowprice of natural
gas is forcing gas companies to
determine if they can make
enough money drilling for it,
those same prices create oppor-
tunities for investment inthe in-
frastructure that shouldone day
facilitate demand.
A number of legislative pro-
posals have beenfloatedto seed
the natural gas market. The key
hurdle is that natural gas is not
readily available as fuel for vehi-
cles. Investment in efforts to
add fueling stations for com-
mercial, institutional and gov-
ernment use of natural gas vehi-
cles might helpthemarket price
of gas. As fueling stations be-
come more widely available,
natural gas could begin to gain
consideration as a backyard al-
ternative to foreign oil for fuel-
ing personal vehicles.
Too often, government only
completes half a job. By provid-
ing leadership to help create a
market for natural gas that re-
sults in market prices that will
encourage investment, Pennsyl-
vania can seal the deal by fully
capitalizing on the opportunity
presented by the Marcellus
Shale gas reserves.

Rick Santorums
announcement Tues-
day that he was suspending his
presidential campaign, cou-
pled with Newt Gingrichs ear-
lier decision to scale back his
effort, has effectively wrapped
up the Republican presidential
nomination for Mitt Romney.
Thus the outcome of Penn-
sylvanias April 24 presidential
primary will be moot. Neither
this states voters, nor NewJer-
seys, whose primary isnt until
June 5, will have a say in decid-
ing the GOP nominee.
While that is unfortunate,
theoutcomegives Republicans
their best choice to run against
President Obama in the fall.
Romney was able to withstand
all the slings and arrows aimed
at him since the caucuses and
primaries began because he al-
ways has beenseenas the most
electable candidate the Re-
publicans have.
Thats code for moderate.
Romney is the better Repub-
lican candidate because his
views, like his Democratic op-
ponents, are more main-
stream. It is lamentable that to
win his partys nomination, he
had to tack so far right. But
Romneys record suggests his
general-election campaign will
reveal his willingness to cross
party lines for the good of this
country.
Now that Romney doesnt
have to fear
the barbs of
his more con-
servative op-
ponents,
maybe he
will own up
to the simi-
larities be-
tween the Affordable Care Act
fashioned by the Obama ad-
ministration and the Massa-
chusetts health care reform
lawthat he and that states leg-
islature devised.
There are differences, but
they are essentially the same,
with both including a mandate
that everyone must have some
formof healthinsurance or pay
a penalty.
Santorums decision to sus-
pend his campaign makes
sense. It had become obvious
that Romneys massive war
chest was paying for an adver-
tising blitzkrieg that would de-
stroy any chance that Santo-
rum could come back from his
embarrassing 17-point defeat
for re-election to the Senate in
2008.
But nowthat Romney essen-
tially has the nomination, its
time for himto use that Etch A
Sketch that he has denied hav-
ing ever since a campaign aide
made that reference, and begin
a new campaign aimed not at
the GOP right, but at Ameri-
cas middle.

gressional District was redrawn,
he couldnt pass up the opportu-
nity.
The redistricting, approved
bya state legislative panel inDe-
cember, placed Scranton and
Wilkes-Barre in the same con-
gressional district as Holdens.
Both are areas where Cart-
wright, a partner with the Mun-
ley, Munley & Cartwright law
firm, is a recognized figure.
And, Cartwright noted, the
new district comes gift-wrap-
ped with an incumbent that no-
body here has ever voted for.
Holden, who visited The
Times Leader last week, con-
tends that two decades of ap-
pearing on the television news
in the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre
market, which includes Schuyl-
kill County where he lives, has
made his name well-known
throughout most of the district.
An internal poll, released
Monday by the Cartwright cam-
paign and conducted by Thirty
Ninth Street Strategies, showed
Cartwright leading Holden
among 600 likely Democratic
primary voters in the 17th by a
42 to 36 percent margin. In Feb-
ruary, according to the poll,
Holden had a 41 to 25 percent
lead. Both men had 51 percent
favorability ratings in the poll,
which was conducted April 2-5
and had a margin of error of +/-
4 percent.
Cartwright, of Moosic, said
he has heard frompeople on the
campaign trail that they like
that a local person is running,
someone that theyve heard of.
Holden, from St. Clair, said
what he maylackinname recog-
nition will be counterbalanced
by elected officials and political
party officials who have en-
dorsed him and will do their
part getting his message out on
his behalf.
Cartwright said his campaign
is supportedby voters, everyday
citizens fromthroughout the re-
gion who are contributing small
amounts of money so he can get
his message across.
Im raising it from friends,
family, relatives, neighbors, he
said, adding that Holden is sup-
ported by corporate donors and
political action committees,
something Cartwright pledged
to limit if elected.
He said he hasnt accepted,
nor would he, contributions
from energy, insurance or Wall
Street-related political action
committees. And while he said
its likely that when political
campaign financial reports are
releasednext week, theyll show
he is neck and neck in contribu-
tions with Holden, he also said
at least half of his war chest will
be loans or donations made to
the campaign from the private
bank accounts he shares with
his wife, Marion Munley.
Cartwright said the need to
personally infuse his campaign
with funds was made necessary
by the late announcement of the
new district lines. He said in-
cumbents can fundraise con-
stantly, regardless of where
theyre running. Challengers,
especially in a year where redis-
tricting occurs, typically get a
late start. He noted he did not
officially enter the race until the
end of January, a full year after
Holden began fundraising for
the current cycle.
Cartwright made it clear that
he believed Holden is a Demo-
crat in name only and chided
the party for beingtoocomplicit
with Republican presidents and
congressmen.
I dont think theyve (Demo-
crats) been as vocal as they
should be for quite a while,
Cartwright said.
When it comes to Holdens
votes, Cartwright mentioned a
handful that he disagreed with,
but the vote against President
BarackObamas MakingHealth-
care Affordable Act, called Oba-
macare by many, really struck a
chord with him.
He said that vote was loud
and clear proof of Holdens self-
given Blue Dog Democrat mo-
niker.
Hes a career politician who
has constantly reached out to
vote onsignificant GOPitems
People want an actual Demo-
crat, Cartwright said, adding
thats the mantle hell wear.

finer details, Wansacz said.
It is a moving document, but
our goal was, originally, to have
it for this Wednesday or Thurs-
day, but that didnt happen.
Werestill talkingthis through,
trying to figure this out. Weve
beenworkingonit, workingonit
late last night.
Under the proposed agree-
ment, the franchise owned by
Lackawanna and Luzerne coun-
ties would be sold to SWB Yan-
kees LLC, a joint venture of the
New York Yankees and Manda-
lay, for $14.6 million, and SWB
Yankees would agree to lease
PNC Field in Moosic as part of
the sales terms.
The sale would cover a por-
tion of stadium reconstruction
costs, which include an entirely
new design. The construction
manager was authorized to be-
gin project mobilization April 6,
as work must begin soon to be
completed for the 2013 season,
though Commissioner Corey
OBrien said last week that dem-
olition will not begin until after
public review of the proposed
agreement and consideration by
the stadium authority.
Baseball is very important,
obviously. Weve been working
veryhard. We believe that we are
very close, but are still working
out someof thefiner, finer points
to be able to present to the pub-
lic. The last thing that we want
to do is turn around and present
some information and then
(have) the deal change, Wan-
sacz said Wednesday.
Were really reduced to writ-
ing the issues that we have been
discussing and the details we
have been discussing, OBrien
added.

dollars, and Corbett has pro-
posed tens of millions in addi-
tional cuts for the budget that
starts July 1.
The governor said that, when
the cost of teacher pensions is
included, state funding for pub-
lic schools is at a recordhigh. He
saidthosepensioncosts will rise
from $1.6 billion to over $4 bil-
lion in the next four years.
The Democratic minority in
the state House of Representa-
tives has said its misleading to
count the pension contribution
since it is unrelated to students
education and masks the depth
of the cuts in spending on aca-
demics.
Responding to Corbetts com-
ments, a spokesman for the
Pennsylvania School Boards As-
sociation said schools are do-
ingeverythingintheir authority
to stay within budget and still
provideanexcellent education,
such as increasing class sizes,
eliminating programs and ser-
vices, freezing wages, furlough-
ing staff and setting up pay-to-
play options to finance extracur-
ricular activities.
In light of these tight bud-
gets, the state needs to step for-
ward and provide relief fromun-
funded mandates that divert
hundreds of millions of dollars
away from the classroom, such
as prevailing wage require-
ments, said spokesman Steve
Robinson.
A spokesman for the Pennsyl-
vania State Education Associ-
ation, the states largest teacher
union, said that Corbetts criti-
cismis unfounded and that peo-
ple concerned about the quality
of education already are speak-
ingout against the programcuts
resulting from the cuts in state
aid.
What were seeing across
Pennsylvania is cuts to pro-
grams that work for students,
said the spokesman, David Bro-
deric.
The state Democratic Party
said Corbett should stop blam-
ing other people for his tax in-
creases.
Tom Corbetts massive bud-
get cuts will raise taxes for mid-
dle-class Pennsylvanians while
eliminating important school
programs that help Pennsylva-
nia students get the education
they need to enter the work-
force, party spokesman Mark
Nicastre said in an email.

Lawton usurped their authority
to determine if Piazza should
stay or go, but they are setting
that disagreement aside for now
toconcentrateontheApril 24pri-
mary, Packard said.
The board has to focus on get-
ting this election done right, he
said.
Packard said board members
are confident they have the au-
thority to choose a new director
and will discuss plans to perma-
nently fill the post after the pri-
mary. A nationwide search will
be conducted over the summer,
with the goal of choosing a direc-
tor before the November general
election, he said.
Im very hopeful that Tom Pi-
zano will stay on as interim until
we have a full director in place,
he said.
Piazza, who could not be reac-
hed for comment Wednesday, an-
nounced his firing on the social
networking site Facebook, de-
scribing the termination as sad
and saying he was going to law-
yer up and file for benefits.
Piazza had been placed on
leave withpayApril 5, largelydue
to his recent decision to audit the
campaign finance reports of
county Controller Walter Grif-
fith, accordingtoinformedsourc-
es.
Griffith said he has a witness
who heard Piazza saying he was
initiatingthe audit toretaliate for
Griffiths investigationof election
office attendance records.
He has absolutely no right un-
der state lawtoaudit anyone, and
for himtospecificallytarget meis
a violation of my civil rights,
Griffith said, noting he had no in-
volvement in the countys deci-
sion to terminate Piazza over the
matter.
The countyhas contactedstate
election officials for technical as-
sistance to ensure all deadlines
and mandates are met in the up-
coming election, Packard said.
County officials also are request-
ing assistance from the company
that supplied the countys elec-
tronic voting machines.
County mapping department
employees will load election re-
sults from polling places into the
computerized tabulation system
on election night because they
have handled this duty in several
elections, officials said.
Lawton visited the voting ma-
chine warehouse in Wilkes-Barre
on Wednesday morning to check
on preparation of the machines.
The county employs several tech-
nicians who already pro-
grammed the primary ballots in-
to the machines. Routine pre-
election machine testing is under
way, and the machines are set to
be delivered to polling places
starting Wednesday, a worker
said.
At this point, the election
boardhas confidence that the pri-
mary election can move forward
as projected and that we will not
have problems, Packard said.
Packard said the board was not
consulted about the plan to ter-
minate Piazza. He doesnt know
if board members would have
chosen termination but said they
were concerned about the timing
of the firing so close to an elec-
tion.
The boardvery clearly has the
statutory power to name the di-
rector. The statute doesnt say
anything about who removes
him. This is one of the problems
with statutes theyre not always
as clear as wed like, Packard
said.
The board wants to work
cooperatively with Lawton to
select the interimandpermanent
replacements, he said. Lawton
will attend Mondays election
board meeting.
Packard said the issues of pow-
er over the director were never
fully resolved under the old gov-
ernment system because the
three county commissioners also
served as the election board.
Under home rule, registered
voters fill the five unpaid election
board seats. Personnel decisions
are handledby the manager hired
by council.
Its a difficult learning process
for everyone, Packard said.

Tylers siblings, parents, aunts
and uncles entered the church.
They were followedby other rela-
tives and friends. They just kept
coming.
The Rev. Michael E. Brewster,
church pastor, thanked the com-
munity for the support shown to
Tylers family, and said the com-
munity needs to build on that
spirit to make Wilkes-Barre a
safer, more peaceful and better
place to live.
Its times like these that I be-
lieve we, as a community, shine,
Brewster said. We shine in re-
flecting the values and the attri-
butes that I believe make this
community worth fighting for.
Its a community worth fighting
for and worth preserving.
We need to keep this love in
our community, he went on to
say. This is what needs to be re-
ported on the front page of our
newspapers. I wish they could
see the love that is in this room
right now.
Throughout the two-hour ser-
vice, spiritual leaders and friends
offered words of support to Tyl-
ers family.
His life albeit so short was not
lived in vain, said the Rev.
Shawn Walker of First Baptist
Church in Wilkes-Barre. The
cityhas seenthroughTyler every-
thing that is good and that youth
have to offer. It is our duty, ladies
andgentlemen, to make sure that
his death is not in vain. Now
theres many ways to do that, but
first and foremost, we can honor
his life by living it the way he
did.
Songs performed by the
church choir echoed the themes
of condolence and comfort ex-
pressed by speakers.
Through the storm, through
the night, I need you to lead me
home to the light, Brewster led
the crowd in singing. Take my
hand, precious Lord, and lead me
home.
One of the most emotional mo-
ments of the service came as
messages written to Tyler by his
siblings were read.
Dear Tyler, I will never forget
you and the fun times we had,
wrote Tylers half-sister, Nina La-
moreux. I will always miss you,
but I knowthat youwill always be
looking down on us.
Tylers brother, Tydus Win-
stead, remembered a generous
sibling who was never stingy
with anything and always want-
ed to help; who wasnt as good at
sports as he was at video games
but tried his hardest at both, and
who used to wake himup with an
I love you.
If I could see Tyler one more
time I would say I love you, Ty-
dus wrote. I promise you, we
will find out who did this.
Brewster told the assembled
crowd that God did not purpose
this tragedy; this tragedy is the
result of mans failure to consider
the impact of his indulgences on
others, but said the community
should use the spirit to foster a
brotherhood built on a radical
love for one another.
Folks, look around, Brewster
said. Its not all white here; its
not all black; its not one ethnic
group. This is what it takes. We
need each other to complete
what God needs in this world.
We do not have to kill each
other, he continued. We can
survive and we can make it, and
the way we can make it is to have
peace in our hearts and to start
loving each other radically. I
dont consider myself a political
activist; I am someone who
wants to make this community
safer for his children and for you.
You need to ask yourself, what
am I going to do to make the
streets of Wilkes-Barre safer?
After the service and a final
viewing, Tyler was buried at Oak
Lawn Cemetery, Hanover Town-
ship.
A memorial fund has been set
up in Tylers memory. Those
wishing to contribute can do so
through the Tyler T. Winstead
Memorial Fund, c/o Bank of
America, 406 S. Main St., Wilkes-
Barre, PA18701.

WILKES-BARRE The day
Elise Mosca came home to the
Wyoming Valley after compet-
ing in a worldwide beauty pag-
eant in Italy, she learned that her
biggest fan was in the emergen-
cy room, unable to speak.
Elises mom, Tina Mosca, has
been battling melanoma the
most serious type of skin cancer
since 2010. In the month that
Elise had been in Italy for Miss
Italia nel Mondo (Miss Italy of
the World), the cancer had unex-
pectedly spread to Tinas brain.
On Saturday, Elise, a 26-year-
old teacher at Heights Elemen-
tary School in Wilkes-Barre, is
having a Melanoma Awareness
benefit for her mom beginning
at 8 a.m. at Odyssey Fitness Cen-
ter in Wilkes-Barre.
In addition to other offerings,
three local physicians Drs.
Rick Blum, Sandhya DeSai and
Mirza Ali will perform free
skin screenings from10 a.m. to 1
p.m.
Early detection is key, Elise
said. If she had been diagnosed
earlier, we probably wouldnt
have had to go through all of
this.
Tina Mosca, 61, of Forty Fort,
went to three different foot doc-
tors beginning in 2009 when she
noticed a line on her big toe
near the nail, her daughter said.
They all said it was nothing,
but my mom knew something
was wrong, Elise said.
At her daughters urging in
May 2010, Tina went to a fourth
podiatrist, who did a biopsy and
diagnosed her with melanoma.
Even with aggressive chemo-
therapy and radiation treat-
ments and countless trips to
hospitals, the cancer spread to
Tinas liver and, eventually, her
brain. Tinas toe was amputated,
and she lost most of her beauti-
ful hair because of the treat-
ments, Elise said.
The benefit is designed to
educate people onmelanoma de-
tection and to raise money for
costs of Tinas continued treat-
ment that are not covered by in-
surance.
Im trying to impart all this
energy I have to try to help oth-
ers while we try our best to keep
her alive and comfortable, Elise
said.
While Elises mom is too ill to
attend the benefit, she, her sis-
ter, Vanessa, and her dad, John,
will be there to help, as will a
number of volunteers, who will
offer free massages, Zumba (be-
cause Tina loved to dance),
Aqua Zumba and exercise/train-
ing sessions.

The quarterback conundrum
that Bill OBrien inherited isnt
getting any easier to solve.
Penn States new coach said
last week that he hoped to make
some progress with the battle for
the starting job this month, trim-
ming the competition from three
to two by the
end of spring
practice.
Now halfway
through spring
ball, however,
OBrien is find-
ing that may
not be possible.
Matt McGloin,
Rob Bolden and Paul Jones have
all been splitting reps in practice
thus far and the forecast hasnt
cleared up much.
Right now, OBrien said
Wednesday onthe BigTenspring
teleconference, there is no sepa-
ration.
Granted, there hasnt been
much time for any of the candi-
dates to pull away fromthe pack.
The Nittany Lions have been
througheight of16springpractic-
essofar, buildinguptothefinale
theBlue-WhiteGameonApril 21.
All three quarterbacks are es-
sentially starting from scratch
with a newplaybook and OBrien
has purposely avoided watching
film of Penn States offense from
the past fewseasons.
Needless to say, the timeline
for making any decisions is still
blurred.
Well, Im not sure if it will
come right at the end of spring
practice, OBrien said of making
it a two-man race. I just know
that its hard to get three guys the
reps that you need to get for one
ortwoguystobethestarter. So, at
the end of spring ball, Im sure
well have a better idea of which
oneortwoguyswill bethestarter.
Sohopefully we candothat at the
end.
If not, then we head into train-
ing camp and we continue with
three guys getting reps. But,
hopefully, over the next eight
practices, a couple of guys will
separate themselves.
For OBrien, who worked di-
rectly with Tom Brady as a posi-
tion coach and an offensive coor-
dinator withthePatriots, its asit-
uation he hasnt had to deal with
in recent years.

T
hey walked into Nanticokes
softball lineup as sophomores
two years ago, and didnt stop
winning until they were parading
around town celebrating a state cham-
pionship.
Maggie Gola and Katie Kowalski
figured it was going to go on like that
forever.
And why not?
They were just two of the 13 sopho-
mores who helped the Trojanettes
capture the 2010 PIAA Class 2A title,
meaning Nanticoke expected to be
collecting gold medals for years to
come.
I look back on it, we were sopho-
mores and we did it, said Gola,
whose two-run double in the 11th
inning lifted the Trojans to that 3-1
state championship victory over Phil-
lipsburg-Osceola two years ago. We
had key positions that were sopho-
mores.
Suddenly, they are all seniors now,
and still looking for that second state
title.
We hope we can do it again this
year, Kowalski said.
They are off to a good start.
The Trojanettes went to 4-0 on the
season Wednesday by pummeling
Pittston Area in a mercy-rule, 20-5
victory. Kowalski blasted a long, run-
scoring triple and Gola added a three-
run double in a 10-run second inning
that put Nanticoke ahead 15-0 and put
the teams starters on the bench for
the day.
All the seniors coming back, we
really want to try this year, Gola said.
Were out for blood.
Especially after the way last year
ended in tears.
The Trojanettes thought they were
invincible and played like it, 10-run-
ning team after team while stacking
up a 20-0 record. Then they lost the
District 2 final to Elk Lake 2-1.
They never made it back to states.
We might have come in a little
over-confident, Nanticoke Area coach
Gary Williams said.
It is why the Trojanettes are taking
nothing for granted now.
They dont have Sarah Bertoni any-
more, their power pitcher from that
state title team, and their sparkplug
catcher Amanda Cardone and talented
shortstop Jenn Harnischfeger both
graduated following that 2010 state
final.
But the rest of the team looks pretty
much the same, starting with spunky
leadoff hitter Sammy Gow.
Our defense and our offense have
been the same from year to year,
Williams said. If I say our pitching
has dropped off, its just a little.
This years Trojanettes feature Han-
nah Rubasky, Wednesdays winner, and
Brooke Chapin Elite pitchers, Wil-
liams called them in the circle.
But the Trojanettes are circling the
day when they can form another mo-
torcade around town.
Wed like to end our career with a
state championship, Kowalski said.
Itd be nice.
But you cant win it all in April.
Thats the message Williams tries to
get across when he maps out his strat-
egy for each year.
We break our season into threes,
Williams said. The (regular) schedule
is the first round. Then we focus on
the playoffs. Then well think about
the state tournament.
Still, the thought is sitting some-
where in the back of his mind, espe-
cially with how strong the Trojanettes
look at seasons start.
Definitely, Williams relented.
Thats why we have high expecta-
tions. These are the majority of our
starters from 2010.
And they have one last chance to
recapture the magic that disappeared
last year.

PITTSBURGH Jakub Voracek beat
Marc-Andre Fleury from in close 2:23 in-
to overtime to give the Philadelphia
Flyers a 4-3 comeback victory over the
PittsburghPenguins onWednesday night
in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference
quarterfinal series.
Fleury stopped Matt Reads shot from
the corner, but Voracek pounced on the
rebound to cap a furious rally from a 3-0
deficit. Daniel Briere scored twice, and
Brayden Schenn added a goal in his play-
off debut. Ilya Brzygalov settled down af-
ter a shaky start to finish with 25 saves.
Sidney Crosby, Tyler Kennedy and Pas-
cal Dupuis scored for the Penguins, and
Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 22 shots, but
Pittsburgh struggled after dominating
the first period.
Game 2 is Friday night in Pittsburgh.
The rivals delivered on their promise
to play whistle-to-whistle and leave out
the rough stuff that highlighted their six
regular-season meetings. The game fea-
turedonly a handful of penalties andlittle
of the typical animosity.
Crosby missed the playoffs last season
while dealing with concussion-like symp-
toms and the memory of watching from
the rafters as the Penguins lost to Tampa

Shortly after Guillen addressed the
team in the clubhouse Wednesday and
apologized for saying he admired Fidel
Castro, it was business as usual for the
players.
To a man, they hadhis back.
Its really a hard time for him and his
family, closer Heath Bell said. We felt
bad for him. You have to understand that
occasionallyguys makemistakes. At least
hes owning upto it andnot trying to hide
or shy away fromit. Hes going to try and
make up for his mistakes.

Like he said, if he doesnt learn fromthis,
hes stupid. Thats what he said.

PHILADELPHIARoy
Halladay threwseven sharp
innings and the Philadelphia
Phillies broke out of their offen-
sive slump, beating the Marlins
7-1on Wednesday night in
Miamis first game without
suspended manager Ozzie
Guillen.
Aonce-potent offense thats
missing Chase Utley and Ryan
Howard struggled in the first
four games, scoring eight runs
total. But they rocked Marlins
ace Josh Johnson, chasing the
big right-hander in the fourth.
Carlos Ruiz hit a solo homer
and a double. Jimmy Rollins,
Hunter Pence and Shane Victo-
rino the Phillies 3-4-5 hitters
were 7 for 13 with three RBIs
and four runs. Before the game,
the focus was on Guillen. He
was suspended five games by
the Marlins on Tuesday for
saying he admired Cuban dicta-
tor Fidel Castro.
Nationals 4, Mets 0
NEWYORKStephen
Strasburg outpitched Johan
Santana for six innings in a
marquee matchup of aces on
the mend, and the Washington
Nationals bullpen made the
lead stand up for a victory over
NewYork on the 50th anni-
versary of the Mets first game.
Meeting in a blustery, chilly
matinee, Strasburg (1-0) and
Santana each got off to an errat-
ic start but settled into a duel
between pitchers coming back
frommajor armoperations.
Strasburg allowed just two
hits and struck out nine in help-
ing the Nationals take the final
two games of the three-game
series against their division
rival with stellar pitching
Ross Detwiler shut down the
Mets on Tuesday night.
Santana (0-1) allowed five
hits in five-plus innings but his
wild pitch gave Washington a
1-0 lead in the second inning of
a game that lasted 3 hours, 36
minutes even though the Mets
had only three hits. NewYork
pitchers combined to walk10
and hit one batter.
Reds 4, Cardinals 3
CINCINNATI Joey Votto
tied a career best with four hits
and scored the go-ahead run on
pinch-hitter Chris Heiseys
ninth-inning single, capping
Cincinnatis comeback froma
three-run deficit.
Down 3-0 in the third against
Jaime Garcia, the Reds tied the
score in the fifth.
Votto doubled off Marc
Rzepczynski (0-1) leading off
the ninth. Ryan Ludwick was
intentionally walked, and Jay
Bruce struck out. Fernando
Salas relieved and Heisey lined
a single to left.
Brewers 2, Cubs1
CHICAGOGeorge Kotta-
ras hit a two-run homer in the
seventh inning and Yovani
Gallardo outdueled Ryan
Dempster to lead Milwaukee to
its third straight win in the
four-game series.
Starlin Castro hit a sacrifice
fly in the first and Dempster
(0-1) had a three-hit shutout
before Mat Gamel doubled
leading off the seventh. Kotta-
ras, Milwaukees backup catch-
er, followed with his second
homer.
Padres 2, Diamondbacks1
SANDIEGOChris Denor-
fia hit a two-run homer with
one out in the eighth inning
Wednesday that carried the San
Diego Padres a win over the
Arizona Diamondbacks, who
had been the last unbeaten
teamin the major leagues.
Denorfias clutch shot to
straightaway center field his
first of the season came on a
2-1pitch fromDavid Hernandez
(0-1). Cameron Maybin was
aboard on a walk.

The Associated Press
BALTIMORE Nick Swish-
er hit a two-run homer in the
10th, and the New York Yan-
kees beat Baltimore 6-4
Wednesday night for their
second straight extra-inning
win and a three-game sweep of
the Orioles.
Curtis Granderson homered
and drove in three runs for the
Yankees, who won consecutive
extra-inning road games for the
first time since July 16-17, 2001,
at Philadelphia, according to
STATS LLC.
After getting swept at Tampa
Bay and starting 0-3 for the
first time since 1998, the Yan-
kees are back to .500 heading
into their home opener against
the Los Angeles Angels on
Friday. With two outs in the
10th, Mark Teixeira hit an
opposite-field pop off Kevin
Gregg (0-1) that landed just
inside the left-field line and
between third baseman Mark
Reynolds and left fielder Nolan
Reimold.
Rays 4, Tigers 2
DETROIT Ben Zobrist hit
a tiebreaking two-run single in
the ninth inning, and the Tam-
pa Bay Rays scored four runs
in the ninth inning to beat
Justin Verlander and the De-
troit Tigers.
The Tigers (4-1) lost for the
first time this season.
Verlander (0-1) took a one-
hitter into the ninth and hadnt
allowed a run all season, but he
gave up one on a wild pitch.
Evan Longoria then tied the
game at 2 with a single to left
on Verlanders 104th and final
pitch.
Blue Jays 3, Red Sox 1
TORONTO Ricky Rom-
ero outdueled Jon Lester, Yu-
nel Escobar drove in two runs
and Boston fell to 1-5.
Other than a third inning in
which the teams combined for
five hits and three runs, both
left-handers were perfect until
Lester (0-1) issued a two-out
walk to Rajai Davis in the
eighth, snapping a streak of 15
consecutive outs. Davis
promptly stole second, beating
the tag on a failed Red Sox
pickoff play, then scored on
Escobars single to center.
Romero (1-0) saw his streak
of 17 straight outs end when
Jacoby Ellsbury and Dustin
Pedroia drew back-to-back
walks to begin the ninth. He
left to a standing ovation after
Adrian Gonzalez flied out to
center, with both runners ad-
vancing on the play.
White Sox 10, Indians 6
CLEVELAND A.J. Pier-
zynski hit a three-run homer
and drove in four runs.
Chicago scored four runs in
the first off Justin Masterson
(0-1), but Cleveland closed to
5-4 in the fifth against John
Danks (1-1) on Travis Hafners
two-run double.
Then in sixth, Alejandro De
Aza hit a two-run homer off
Dan Wheeler and Pierzynski
homered against Rafael Perez
for a 10-4 lead.
Twins 6, Angels 5
MINNEAPOLIS Jamey
Carroll had his first two hits
with Minnesota, including the
go-ahead single in the seventh,
and Josh Willingham hit a
two-run homer to lift the
Twins to their first victory of
the season.
Chris Parmelee hit a tying
two-run triple in the seventh
before Carroll drove him in
with a single off LaTroy Haw-
kins. Matt Capps pitched the
ninth for his first save.

PHILADELPHIA When
Dan Baker yelled Ryan Ho-
wards name into the micro-
phonebehindhomeplateMon-
day at Citizens Bank Park, the
crowd cheered. It was louder
when Howard, wearing his No.
6 jersey, popped from the du-
gout and jogged to the first-
base line for pregame introduc-
tions.
Charlie Manuel, standing
near home plate, was sur-
prised.
Actually, the Phillies man-
ager said, I didnt want himto
do that. He didnt just want to
limp out there. But I didnt
want him running. Matter of
fact, I might have carriedhimif
he asked me.
The progress for Howard is
slow; he no longer must take
antibiotics to treat an infec-
tion. But he is restricted until
the wound totally heals, and
that has yet to happen.
My activities, its all the
same, Howard said. The
wound is what were waiting
on.
General manager Ruben
Amaro Jr. said Howard was
scheduled to consult with
wound specialists at the Roth-
man Institute on Thursday.
Then, the team should have a
better idea when Howard can
extend himself.
Howard took ground balls
during batting practice again
Wednesday, but is still limited
in his work. Before the infec-
tion and Feb. 27 surgical proce-
dure, he was more active than
he is now. Howard said he can
do cardiovascular activities
such as jumping rope.

Prohaska, a 6-foot-4 hitter and
blocker, piledupat least five kills
in each game on Wednesday, in-
cluding nine in the final stanza
and accounted for the 25th point
in that game.
In the first game, Crestwood
led throughout. The closest the
Black Knights got was within a
point when Scott Judson and
Mike Hartman nailed back-to-
back kills to pull Lehman to an
8-7 deficit. Lake-Lehman strug-
gled serving early in the game,
hitting many into the net or out
of bounds.
But the Knights rebounded
fromthat showing the rest of the
match, including in the second
game, when they overcame
those miscues to take a 25-22 de-
cision. After Crestwood took a
16-15 leadinthe second, Lehman
went on an 11-7 run to close out
the win. After committing 11 er-
rors in the first game, Lehman
only had five miscues in the win.
The final two games could
have gone either way.
The first game they played
tough, the second game we
played tough, and then the third
and fourth game each team was
aware of what the other could
do, Lehman coach Corey Brin
said. So it was whoever got that
momentum swing. I think were
very equal teams and whoever
got the momentumwas going to
win.
Opening a 4-0 lead in the third
game, the Black Knights ap-
peared to be in control. That was
before Prohaska, who also had
four service points, took over.
The senior had two of his three
blocks in the game and piled up
eight kills, including three in a
row to get the Comets even at 4.
The game also consisted of five
ties and three lead changes.
Crestwood didnt take its first
lead until 13-12. Then when the
score was 20-19 in favor of the
Comets, they closed out the
scoring in the frame with a 5-1
run.
He really turned it on today,
Williams said of Prohaska. He
really wanted it.
Crestwoodjumpedout toa 4-0
leadinthe fourthandfinal game,
but unlike the third, the Comets
never gave up the lead. The
Black Knights evened the score
twice, but thats as close as they
got. It was just what Williams
wanted to see out of his team
holding a 23-16 lead, until his
team committed five straight er-
rors to get Lehman back in the
game to trim the lead to 23-20.
We got to tighten up the ship
on that. We get a little relaxed
sometimes and when we get a
lead by six or seven we have to
learnto put the game away, Wil-
liams added.
Nick Banos was a big time set-
ter for Crestwood, tallying 48 as-
sists to go with16 service points,
four aces and four blocks. Pat
Henry added 10 kills, eight
points andthree digs for the win-
ners, whileJoshLewis contribut-
ed seven kills and two blocks.
For the Black Knights, Kyle
Fine piled up 18 kills and five
digs, while Brent Oliver regis-
tered32assists, sevenpoints and
five digs. Kevin Masters also had
a good match for Lehman with
eight kills, eight blocks and six
digs.

Holy Redeemer swept Nanti-
coke by the scores of 26-9, 25-14

with 15 service points, 14 assists
and 11 kills. Jeremy Myslowski
totaled 22 assists, 10 kills and
nine service points for the win-
ners, while Mike Morrison (nine
kills) and Dylan Myslowski
(eight service points) also con-
tributed.

WACO, Texas The NCAA
put Baylor on three years of pro-
bation Wednesday after an inves-
tigation turned up hundreds of
impermissible telephone calls
and text messages sent to prep
recruits by coaches and assist-
ants on the basketball teams.
The violations were consid-
ered to be major infractions, and
they were announced less than a
week after the Lady Bears won
the national championship with
the first 40-0 season in NCAAhis-
tory.
Still, it could have been much
worse for Baylor. All of the penal-
ties were proposed by the school
andacceptedbythe NCAAafter a
review of nearly 900,000 phone
and text message records found
that 738 texts and 528 calls were
against the rules.
The NCAA said mens coach
Scott Drew failed to monitor his
program and will be suspended
for twoBig12games next season,
in addition to recruiting restric-
tions. Womens coach Kim Mul-
key also received recruiting re-
strictions.
I believe strongly in following
NCAArules andwill always tryto
do so in the future, Mulkey said.
I donothingwithout permission
from our compliance office and
will continue to ask questions to
assure that things are done right.
Any compliance-related mis-
takes, eventhose that are second-
ary, are disappointing. The ma-
jority of mistakes in this matter
were errors in sending text mess-
ages and failure to accurately
document our phone calls.
The report put a bit of a damp-
er on what has been an extraor-
dinary run of success for Baylor.
Besides Baylors win over
Notre Dame for the womens ti-
tle, Drews team won a school-re-
cord 30 games and reached the
NCAA regional finals, where the
Bears lost to eventual national
champion Kentucky. And all that
came after star quarterback Rob-
ert Griffin III became the schools
first Heisman Trophy winner fol-
lowing a football season that in-
cluded 10 wins for the first time
since 1980.
Mulkey was named the APs
national coach of the year and ju-
nior Brittney Griner was its play-
er of theyear. HowBaylor recruit-
ed Griner, one of the most dom-
inant womens players in college
basketball history, was reported-
ly part of the NCAA probe.
A school report obtained by
ESPN.com said Mulkey and her
staff committed minor NCAA vi-
olations for having impermissi-
ble contact with Griner and her
family. During a 2007 camp,
coaches spoke with the Griners
about the basketball program,
academic requirements and the
school in general both before and
after the camp.
Mulkey also reportedly broke
NCA rules when she sat next to
Griners father and discussed
what the Baylor experience
would be like. Brittney Griner,
who is from the Houston area,
played on the same AAU team as
Mulkeys daughter, Makenzie Ro-
bertson.
The other matters were relat-
ed to my daughters participation
in summer basketball, she said.
While I am and will always be a
mother first, I do recognize that
there has to be a balance between
my role as a mother of a prospect
and my role as a head coach. I
have always tried to strike that
balance and appreciate the op-
portunity to demonstrate to the
NCAA staff such balancing ef-
forts dating back to whenMaken-
zie was in the seventh grade. I am
pleasedthat my efforts tofindthe
appropriate balance between a
mother and a coach were recog-
nized.

BUFFALO, N.Y. A seven-run
fourth inning was too much for
the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yan-
kees on Wednesday afternoon in
the teams series opener against
Buffalo.
Dellin Betances, one of the
Yankees top pitching prospects,
got roughed up -- allowing eight
runs on seven hits and six walks,
including six of Buffalos seven
runs in the fourth as the Bisons
won 12-3 at Coca Cola Field.
The Yankees held a 3-2 lead en-
tering the bottom of the fourth,
but Buffalo put upthe sevenspot,
highlighted by three two-run
home runs by Jordany Valdespin,
Valentino Pascucci and Zach
Lutz. Lutzs blast was his second
of the game and came after Jason
Bulger relieved Betances (0-1),
who was making his second start
of the season.
The first homer of the game by
Lutz gave Buffalo a 2-0 leadinthe
bottom of the second.
The Yankees, who dropped to
1-5 this season, took a 3-2 lead in
the next half inning when De-
wayne Wise whacked a three-run
home run off Bisons starter Jeu-
rys Familia (1-0). Wises blast was
his second of the season and just
the second of the season for the
Yankees.
The Yankees were outhit 12-6
and Brandon Laird had two of
Scranton/Wilkes-Barres hits,
finishing 2-for-4 in the contest, as
the Yankees only multiple hitter.
The Bisons and Yankees con-
tinue their series this afternoon
at 1 when left-hander Manny Ba-
nuelos (0-1, 10.18) takes the hill
against Buffalo righty Chris
Schwinden(1-0, 0.00). The series
concludes on Friday with an af-
ternoon contest as well before
the Yankees open their home
campaign on Saturday against
Syracuse at Alliance Bank Stadi-
um in Syracuse.
Notes: Thecompletiondatefor
the suspended game with Syra-
cuse fromTuesday was incorrect-

urday. Since the Yankees will be
the home team Saturday and the
team returns to Syracuse as the
visiting team later in the season,

ance Bank Stadium on July 12.

If OBrien has an earlier leader
in his head, he isnt letting on.
Similar sounding praises have
been offered about all three sig-
nal-callers.
So what will he be looking to
see from them in the rest of the
spring?
I want to see these guys deci-
sion-making get better, OBrien
said. I want to see their accuracy
get better. I want to obviously see
them grasp the offense better
than they are right now. And,
again, these guys are really work-
ing at it. You gain everything
through hard work, and theyre
working extremely hard at it.
But I want tosee improvedde-
cision-making and accuracy and
grasping the offense. Then its
easier to make a decision.
Off the field, things are begin-
ning to fall into place for OBrien,
whose wife andtwosons recently
moved full-time to State College.
After afewmonths of livingout of
a hotel room near Beaver Stadi-
um, the coach has taken resi-
dence in neighboring Boalsburg.
Its one less thing to worry
about for the man tasked with re-
inventing Penn State football.
OBrienadmittedthat it will be
a major challenge.
Of course. Everything is new,
he said. The terminology is new,
the coaching styles are new, the
tempo might be different. And
different things that we stress
might be different thanwhat they
stressedbefore. I havenoidea. All
I knowis that its new.
So, of course, thats what
change is about. And these guys
have embraced it and theyre do-
ingthebest jobthat theycanright
nowto this point.

bouncing to his feet and flipping

ago after the Flyers fell behind
by two goals in the first 5 min-
utes. It worked April 1, as Phila-
delphia rallied for a 6-4 victory.
It worked. Just not immediate-
ly.
Dupuis gave Pittsburgh a 3-0
advantage with just 37 seconds
left before the first intermission,
scraping a puck off Bryzgalovs
pads and into the net. The goal-
tender appeared to have no clue
where the puck was on the play.
The Flyers limped to the
dressing room but as they
have all season they rallied.
Philadelphia won 20 games
during the season when the op-
ponent scored first, the most in
the NHL. The Flyers showcased
that resiliency during the final
two periods of regulation,
clamping down on Crosby and
NHL-leading scorer Evgeni Mal-
kin.
Briere gave the Flyers life with
a breakaway goal 6:22 into the
second period, even though re-
plays showed he was well offside
onthe play. He brought Philadel-
phia within a goal with10:37 left
in regulation with a wrist shot
from a tough angle that clanged
off the far post and in.
Schenn tied it just over 3 min-
utes later by redirecting a shot
by Scott Hartnell and setting up
the kind of taut finish expected
in perhaps the most competitive
first-round series of the playoffs.

season, but his career was effec-
tively ended on April 1.
That day, Petrino and Dorrell
went for a motorcycle ride on a
two-lane highway southeast of
Fayetteville and skidded off the
road. Petrino was injured -- four
broken ribs, a cracked neck ver-
tebra, scrapes and bruises -- but
Dorrell was not.
Petrino didnt disclose her
presence on the ride until a po-
lice report was issued on April 5;
he told his boss, athletic director
Jeff Long, 20 minutes before the
report was released to the public.
The cell phone records show
that Petrino was on the phone
with Dorrell at the very moment
the report was issued, at about
3:30 p.m. Central time. And he
spoke with Dorrell 11 times in all
that day.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. For-
mer Arkansas coach Bobby Petri-
no and his mistress were in fre-
quent contact over the past six
months, sometimes calling or
texting each other dozens of
times in a single day including
game days, according to a review
of his business cellphone records
by The Associated Press.
Petrino was fired Tuesday
night for failing to disclose his re-
lationship with Jessica Dorrell, a
25-year-old former Razorbacks
volleyball player he hired last
month without disclosing his
conflict of interest or the fact he
had once paid her $20,000. Ath-
letic director Jeff Long said he
had determined their relation-
ship had been ongoing for a sig-
nificant amount of time, but he
did not say for how long.
The cellphone records show
the two were in close contact at
least as far back as Sept. 12. The
university provided nearly seven
months of Petrinos business cell-
phone records and that is the
first date listed. Among the find-
ings:
Petrino, a married father of
four, exchanged 91 texts with
Dorrell on Sept. 13 and 84 texts
with her over five hours on Oct.
28, the day before a game at Van-
derbilt. On Oct. 17, the two
swapped 73 text messages, and
on four days in a row in the week
before a loss to eventual national
champion Alabama, Petrino
called Dorrell early -- at 5:52 a.m.,
6:35 a.m., 5:49 a.m. and 7:55 a.m.
The day Arkansas beat Troy,
the two exchanged 70 texts.
The 51-year-old Petrino built
Arkansas into a national power,
including a 21-5 record over the
past two seasons and a No. 5
ranking in last seasons final AP
poll. He was expected to lead the
Hogs on a national title run next
Petrino faithful in contacting mistress
By KURT VOIGT
AP Sports Writer
COLUMBUS, Ohio Half of
the six teams in the Big Tens
Leaders Division have new
coaches, plus there are a lot of fa-
miliar names and some not so fa-
miliar ones coming back this fall.
But one thing hasnt changed:
The drive to the conference title
still runs through the pictur-
esque college town of Madison,
Wis.
I believe we are the targeted
teamright nowin the Big Ten be-
cause of what weve done these
past two years, said Montee
Ball, the Badgers superstar run-
ning back. Everyone is probably
shooting and gunning for us.
Thats why we make sure we
practice just as hard as we did
two years ago when we first went
to the Rose Bowl, and last year as
well. We make sure we do what
we do here.
We play Wisconsin football.
Clearly, thats been a success-
ful formula for the Badgers, who
have won the last two Big Ten ti-
tles, including last years inaugu-
ral conference championship
game.
The Badgers lost half of their
starters from an 11-3 team that
outlasted Michigan State 42-39
last year to pick up the first Stagg
Trophy. They also lost six key
members of the coaching staff.
Perennial power Ohio State is
coming off a woeful 6-7 season
but has new coach Urban Meyer.
Illinois has retooled with Tim
Beckman now in charge. And di-
vision co-champion Penn State
has replaced the iconic Joe Pater-
no with former NFL offensive gu-
ru Bill OBrien.
All in all, the Leaders Division
should make for an interesting
mix of the old and new.
Meyer, who won two national
championships at Florida, has al-
ready jousted with conference
coaches over recruiting players
who had made verbal commit-
ments elsewhere.
His first team features return-
ing quarterback Braxton Miller
and 15 other starters, although
Meyer a coachwholoves noth-
ing more than guys who can
break off a game-changing play
is still on the lookout for
speedy players to whom Miller
can hand or throw the ball.
Thats a work in progress, he
said of the search for playmakers.
Imholding out hope that in this
last half of springthat were going
to put them in situations where
theyre going to make plays.
Beckman, who moved from
Toledo to replace the fired Ron
Zook, has beenanassistant inthe
Big Ten and spent much of the
rest of his career near the confer-
ence.
He has made a point of getting
to know last years Illini quarter-
back Nathan Scheelhaase, who is
a building block for the new
coaching staff.
PennState is trying to move on
in the wake of the ugly sex-abuse
scandal, the firing of Paterno and
his subsequent death. By hiring
OBrien, an acolyte of New En-
gland genius Bill Belichick, the
school has its first head-coaching
change since 1966.
The NittanyLions, 9-4overall a
year ago and tied with Wisconsin
atop the division at 6-2, have a
surplus of QBs for OBrien to fit
into his pro-style offense: Matt
McGloin, Rob Bolden and Paul
Jones. The first two have shared
the job, but all three have gotten
equal first-team reps this spring.
Theyve definitely pro-
gressed, he said. Each one of
them is a different type of player.
Theyve worked very hard.
Theyre all bright guys. They all
have different types of tools.
I really enjoy being around
them.
Purdue has benefited fromsur-
viving a series of ghastly, injury-
filled seasons. Caleb TerBush
was the startingQBlast year for a
team that won a bowl game (the
Big Ten was just 4-6 in the post-
season). Theres Robert Marve, a
former Miami Hurricanes starter
who has had an injury-plagued
career at Purdue but is now
healthy after the NCAA handed
him a final year of eligibility.
Then theres Rob Henry, another
starter who is out this spring af-
ter knee surgery.

LEXINGTON, Ky. Dr. Ken-
dall Hansen sees signs all around
of his horses surging popularity.
Its become a heady experience
for the owner and the near-white
colt he named for himself.
Its a dream of a lifetime, but I
didnt even dream this far, Im
just trying to take it all in, he
said Wednesday after Hansen
was made the 6-5 morning-line
favorite in a field of 13 3-year-olds
for Saturdays Blue Grass Stakes
at Keeneland.
Im a little bit (nervous) with
the responsibility that comes
with it. I dont want to make mis-
takes or embarrass the horse.
Hes doing just fine on his own. I
try to stay back, out of the way.
Hansen, trained by Michael
Maker and ridden by Ramon
Dominguez, drew the No. 4 post
for the 1
1
8th-mile race over Poly-
track. Last years 2-year-old
champion comes into his final
prep before the Derby on May 5
off a convincing victory in the
Gotham Stakes at Aqueduct last
month.
Hes great, he actually start-
ing peaking the weeks after the
Gotham and Mike said hes Der-
by-ready, hes good to go, said
Hansen, dressed in a black blazer
with a striking white pin in the
shape of his horse attached on
his lapel. This race obviously
with the talent in this race is
going to be a tightener for him.
Dullahan, trained by Dale Ro-
mans, and Howe Great, trained
by Graham Motion, are the sec-
ond choices at 6-1.
Howe Great is looking to fol-
low in the footsteps of Animal
Kingdom, last years Derby win-
ner. Both horses are owned by
Barry Irwins Team Valor Inter-
national.
I wouldnt say Im confident,
Irwin said of his chances with
Howe Great. Its a really tough
race and Hansen is the best
horse. I dont think (Howe
Great) can beat him to tell you
the truth.
The Blue Grass is one of the
final major Derby preps, but the
move fromdirt to a synthetic sur-
face in 2006 has made the race
more unpredictable with the
field in recent years comprised
primarily of turf horses looking
to cash in on the $750,000 purse.
Street Sense in 2007 is the only
horse to run in the Blue Grass
and win the Derby since the
switch.
The last time a horse won both
the Blue Grass and the Derby
was Strike the Gold in 1991 and
the field hasnt been this big
since 14 horses ran in 1974.
Howe Greats last three races
have all been on turf, while Dul-
lahan has run three of its last five
races on turf.
Owner Ken Ramsey has two
horses in the field, Gung Ho and
Politcallycorrect. Both are 30-1
long shots, and will break from
the Nos. 2 and 7 posts, respec-
tively.
Hero of Order, the 109-1 long
shot who won the Louisiana Der-
by on April 1, drew the No. 12
post the same spot he broke
from two weeks ago.
The field in post position or-
der, with jockeys and odds:
Heavy Breathing (Corey Lanerie,
12-1); Gung Ho (Edgar Prado,
30-1); Prospective (Luis Contre-
ras, 10-1); Hansen (Ramon Dom-
inguez, 6-5); Russian Greek (Mi-
guel Mena, 50-1); Dullahan (Kent
Desormeaux, 6-1); Politicallycor-
rect ( Elvis Trujillo, 30-1); Mid-
night Crooner (Garrett Gomez,
15-1; Holy Candy (Joel Rosario,
30-1); Howe Great (Javier Castel-
lano, 6-1); Ever So Lucky (Julien
Leparoux, 12-1); Hero of Order
(Eddie Martin Jr., 12-1); Scatman
(Shaun Bridgmohan, 12-1).

LONDON Britains
Olympic body has urged the
World Anti-Doping Agency
to introduce mandatory four
years bans for drug cheats as
a minimum.
The current WADA code
has a provision for four-year
bans, but fewfederations opt
to impose sanctions beyond
the standard two years.
(That) places in danger
WADAs reputation and lays
itself open to the question of
how effective a global (non-
governmental organization)
can be in tackling the ever
growing challenge of doping
in sport, the British Olym-
pic AssociationwrotetoWA-
DA in a document released
Wednesday.
The2012Olympic host na-
tion has submitted its pro-
posed changes for the revi-
sion of the WADA code,
which sets out drug-testing
rules and sanctions across
all sports and countries.
Athletes globally are call-
ing for tougher sanctions to
rid sport of those that
choose to cheat, the BOA
said. WADA should listen
and act accordingly.
The BOA is the only
Olympic body to impose life
bans for dopers, but that
would have to be scrapped
ahead of the London Games
if a Court of Arbitration for
Sport ruling goes in WADAs
favor later this month.
Too often WADA has
failed to catch the serious
doping cheats which, to
its credit, WADA acknowl-
edges, the BOA said. Too
often it is the law enforce-
ment officers from individu-
al countries who have led
the war on doping in sport.
Nowmay be the time to con-
sider at a more fundamental
level the role, structure and
function of WADA as a cen-
tralized body.
Britains anti-doping agen-
cy announced Wednesday
that it has started testing in-
ternational athletes in the
countryaheadof the London
Olympics.
Intelligence has been
gathered from international
sports federations and na-
tional anti-doping organiza-
tions to target athletes who
are inBritaintotrainor com-
pete before the July 27-Aug.
12 Olympics.
We are doingall we canto
ensure that there is no place
to hide for drug cheats in
this country, British Olym-
pics minister Hugh Robert-
son said. Information shar-
ing across borders and a
strong testing program will
help in this fight.

Olympiad of a ban

CHARLOTTE, N.C. Ti-
ger Woods is taking a three-
week break before returning
to golf at the Wells Fargo
Championship.
Woods announced
Wednesday he will resume
an up-and-down season May
3-6 at Quail Hollow, where
he wonin2007. He alsocom-
mittedto The Players Cham-
pionshipthefollowingweek.
Ayear ago, he injuredhis left
Achilles tendon and with-
drewafter nine holes at TPC
Sawgrass. Woods missed the
next three months.
But first, a rest.
Im going to take some
time off and not look at the
clubs for a while, and then
get backafter it, Woods said
on his website.
In his last three tourna-
ments, Woods withdrew in
the final round at Doral with
a sore Achilles tendon, won
at Bay Hill for his first PGA
Tour title in 30 months and
tied for 40th at the Masters,
his worst 72-hole position in
a major as a pro.
I know what I need to
work on, Woods said. Its
just a matter of getting out
there and doing it. Just put-
ting in the reps and the
time.
Woods also said it was a
mistake to kick his 9-iron af-
ter missing a tee shot at the
par-3 16th on Friday.
One thing I would like to
say about the Masters last
week is that obviously I got
frustratedat times andknow
some of my actions were
wrong, especially at No. 16,
he wrote. The Masters
means a lot to me, and I was
trying as hard as I could. Im
out there competing. I grind
every day, and my expecta-
tions are to do my best. Its
very disappointing when
that doesnt happen.
Woods missed Quail Hol-
low a year ago because of
what was described as a mi-
nor injury to his left leg.
The last time he played the
Wells Fargo Championship,
it was his second tourna-
ment since returning from
the crisis in his personal life.
He missed the cut with the
highest 36-hole score (153)
of his career.
Masters champion Bubba
Watson, U.S. Open cham-
pion Rory McIlroy, Lee
Westwood and former U.S.
Open champion Graeme
McDowell also said they
would play at Quail Hollow.

Verizon adds upgrade fee
Verizon Wireless, the countrys large-
st cellphone company, says it will start
charging $30 every time a subscriber
wants to upgrade to a new phone.
Other phone companies have in-
troduced similar fees. Competitor
AT&T Inc. raised its fee from $18 to
$36 this year.
Verizon says it will start charging the
fee on April 22, and it will help fund
customer support and online educa-
tional tools.
Verizon is introducing the fee as
cellphone companies are seeing their
profits cut by the cost of subsidizing
smartphones, especially iPhones.
Beige Book is upbeat
A Federal Reserve survey released
Wednesday found steady economic
growth and hiring throughout the
United States in late February and
March.
The survey, known as the Beige
Book, suggests weaker job growth in
March may prove to be temporary. The
report is based on anecdotal informa-
tion from the Feds 12 regional banks.
Business activity in the Philadelphia
region showed slow, steady improve-
ment. Motor vehicle dealers experi-
enced strong sales growth in February,
but their sales were less robust in
March.
Disney drawing on China
The Walt Disney Co. says it is part-
nering with Chinas Culture Ministry
and Internet service provider Tencent,
to help develop the nations nascent
animation industry by training Chinese
animators and helping them develop
original content.
The partnership, announced Tues-
day, will require little to no investment
on Disneys part and gives the family
entertainment giant the so-called first
look at developing any promising
material into TV shows or movies for
Chinese and global audiences.
Lehman to make payouts
Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.,
which is preparing its first payment to
creditors after more than three years in
bankruptcy, said the initial distribution
will be $22.5 billion, or 53 percent
more than it previously estimated was
possible.
Lehman, which filed the biggest
bankruptcy in U.S. history in Septem-
ber 2008, said a second distribution is
planned for Sept. 30.

Nat. gas dips below $2 mark
By NAUREEN S. MALIK
Bloomberg News
WASHINGTONFormer Ap-
ple Inc. Chief Executive Steve
Jobs and top executives at five
major book publishers illegally
conspired to raise the prices of e-
books, costing consumers tens of
millions of dollars, federal and
state officials alleged in antitrust
lawsuits filed Wednesday.
Thecollusionbeganin2009and
price fixing took effect with the
launch of the Apple iPad in early
2010, boosting the average cost of
e-books by $2 to $3 each virtually
overnight, said Sharis Pozen, the
acting head of the Justice Depart-
ments antitrust division.
We allege that these executives
knew full well what they were do-
ing. That is, taking steps to make
sure the prices consumers paid for
e-books were higher, she said in
announcing the federal suit.
The customer pays a little
more, but thats what you want
anyway, Pozen quoted Jobs as
saying in talks with publishers.
Thesuit saidAppletookpridein
the plan which gave the iPad
maker a guaranteed 30 percent
commissiononeache-book it sold
through its online marketplace.

attorneysgeneral, wasfiledagainst
Apple, Simon &Schuster Inc., Ha-
chette BookGroup, HarperCollins
Publishers, Macmillan and Pen-
guin Group.
Hachette, HarperCollins and Si-
mon & Schuster reached a settle-
ment with the feds that would re-
quire them to allow retailers such
as Amazon.comInc. andBarnes &
Noble Inc. to reduce the prices of
e-books they sell fromthe publish-
ers, the Justice Department said.
Suits aim
at Apple,
publishers
By JIMPUZZANGHERA
and ANDREA CHANG
Los Angeles Times
HUBRIS CAN be a
terrible thing, as Mac
owners are learning.
After decades of
mocking PC users
about viruses and
malware, and years of
suing anyone that
produced any product an Apple em-
ployee had ever happened to imagine,
not only does Apple find itself the
target of a federal antitrust lawsuit,
Mac users are beginning to find that,
when it comes to viruses and malware
theyre not as safe as they thought.
Lets take a look at the malware
first.
Its called Flashback (or Flashfake),
Apple denies the allegations, and
says it reached agreements that would
promote competition against Amazon
and other e-book retailers such as
Barnes & Noble.
You can accuse Microsoft or Google
of being heartless mega-corporations
all you want, but theyve never been
anywhere near as controlling of soft-
ware or customer sales as Apple a
philosophy that seems to be directly at
odds with the values of Apples tradi-
tional target audience.
Apple has been wildly successful in
todays wobbly economy. The price of
that success can be measured in
you guessed it malware attacks and
anti-trust suits.
Java, a software installed on many
computers that allows them to exe-
cute code written in that program-
ming language.
Oracle, the company that develops
and maintains Java, was aware of the
problem in February, but Apple didnt
fix it until it became apparent that
many computers had become affected.
This isnt the first time that Macs
have become infected with malicious
software, and as more people use
them, the trend is likely to continue.
In the antitrust action, the federal
government is suing Apple and other
publishers, claiming they conspired to
fix the prices of books offered in
Apples online e-book store.
and its whats known as a Trojan
Horse it hides out on your comput-
er, masquerading as something in-
nocuous as it makes your computer
perform diabolical deeds behind your
back.
Flashback infected several hundred
thousand Macs, which linked together
to form a botnet a group of com-
puters infected with viruses and con-
trolled from a remote location.
Flashback entered the infected
computers through a vulnerability in

Today will be
another cold day
with northerly
winds. However,
with drier air in
place at mid-lev-
els of the atmos-
phere, the
chance for
having showers
today has dimin-
ished. But still
there could be a
few small isolat-
ed showers on
radar this after-
noon. Skies will
turn clear
tonight and once
again readings
will drop down to
near freezing.
Friday will be a
stunning day
weatherwise. Not
only will the sun
shine all day, but
temperatures
will rise to and
above 60
degrees.
Saturday we will
be even warmer
with an abun-
dance of sun-
shine and light
winds. Some rain
could arrive at
night and again
Sunday.
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: An upper-level trough of low pressure and an associated surface frontal
boundary will produce numerous rain and higher elevation snow showers from the Pacic Northwest
into the Intermountain West today. Isolated thunderstorms will be possible, as well. Another storm
system will trigger scattered thunderstorms across the Plains into the Mississippi Valley. Some of
these storms may be strong to severe.

THE TIMES LEADER THURSDAY, APRIL 12, 2012
timesleader.com
There was a time when white cot-
ton undies reminded me of my dad.
In other words, definitely not
fashionable.
And so not hot.
But then there was Mario Lopez
posing for his underwear line Rated
M.
And Tim Tebow for Jockey.
And David Beckham for Body-
wear for H&M.
Suddenly, the tighty whitey, and
all of the T-shirts and tanks that go
with it, are kind of pause for
some throat-clearing sexy.
As mens underwear revenue in-
creases the NPDGroup reported
that total mens underwear sales
jumped 6.4 percent, from $3.08 bil-
lion in 2010, to $3.28 billion in 2011
mens white briefs are getting a
makeover.
Yes, we are seeing a change in
the plain white brief, confirmed
Thomas Longo, owner of Metro
Mens Clothing on Philadelphias
East Passyunk Avenue. Its about
fabric, texture and breathability as
much as it is about fashion.
Male shoppers are starting to go
old-school in their undergarments
for two reasons: new technology
and a shift in mainstream mens
fashions from slovenly to stylish.
Ill start with technology.
Brands from Adidas to Jockey to
Michael Kors are
using high-tech fab-
rics intheir brief de-
signs that wick
away moisture and
allow for more
movement.
There is white
stretch, white with
contrast waist-
bands, white perfo-
rated panels and
white textured rib
knits, said TomJu-
lian, trend expert
and retail consult-
ant for the Tom Ju-
lian Group, discuss-
ing the surfeit of
white options in re-
tail today.
But evenmore in-
fluential, explained
Mo Moorman, director of public re-
lations at Jockey, is that men are fi-
nally realizing that their wardrobe
may require more than one style of
underwear. If a guy wants to wear
pants with slimmer fits, boxers can
be too bulky, not to mention that
waistbands peeking out from pants
is so yesterday.
Men are dressing up more, and
they are starting to look at under-
wear more like foundation, Moor-
man said.
George Haralambous, merchan-
dise manager for Adidas Accesso-
ries, points to the growing popular-
ity of a newer underwear style
called the trunk: slightly shorter
than boxers, but longer than classic
white skivvies.
And most important, these
trunks are snugger. So yes, fellas,
there are no panty lines.
The trunks emerged out of fash-
ion, Haralambous said. Its all
about the snugger fit.
Haralambous said Adidas Sport
Performance Underwear line is sell-
ing well in bold reds, neons and co-
balt blue.
That brings me to my next point.
Billboards of Calvin Klein-perfect
bods maywant us tobelievethat vir-
ile men are vying to wear white
and after seeing David Beckhamon
Super Bowl night, I do want them
to.
Guys, however, arent quite there
yet. They may dig the new sil-
houette, but they need more time to
get acquainted with the white their
dads wear.
That doesnt mean fighting the
white fight is useless. Everyday
guys adopt fashion changes a little
slower than women it took near-
ly 10 years for men to dump their
droopy drawers and embrace a
snugger silhouette.
Soif celebrities keepposinginthe
white retro look Im thinking ac-
tor/heartthrob Idris Elba could be
next the tighty whitey will be
back before we know it.
Men saying
all righty to
tighty whiteys
By ELIZABETH WELLINGTON
The Philadelphia Inquirer
Yes, we are
seeing a
change in
the plain

fabric, tex-
ture and
breathability
as much as
it is about
fashion.

EWYORKWhen Letty Abraham
of Sylvan Lake, Mich., married her
husband, Mark, almost 22 years ago, she
was determined not to make a fuss.
It was her second marriage, and she
didnt want to go overboard.
I had a big wedding the first time. My
second wedding I was over that, and I
wanted it more small and intimate. We
got married in Las Vegas. We had family
andfriends there, but it wasnt a really big
deal, she said.
Still, it was crucial to the couple to make their
union special, so they planned early to renew their
vows. Fast forward10 years, and they were saying I
still do on a trip to Maui, Hawaii, where Abraham
let herself cry. She and her husband were so happy
with their second wedding to each other that they
decided to do it again at the 15-year mark as well.
Well probably do it again at 25, she said.
Recommitting to a relationship through vow re-
newals is becoming more popular, saidSusanSouth-
erland, president of Just Marry!, Inc. wedding plan-
ners in Orlando, Fla. In the last three to five years
theyve become extremely popular. Weve always
done one or two throughout the year, but all of a sud-
den its become a huge request.
For one thing, its a great way to reconnect.
Kathryn Quinn of East Lansing, Mich., is ap-
proaching her 11-year anniversary. She and her hus-
band recently renewed their vows in the Virgin Is-
lands, where they traveled with three other couples
to renewtheir vows on the beach on Valentines Day.
Imsogladwe didit, she said. This was our first
tripawayfromour children. It was at abeautiful loca-
tion. The vowrenewal was meaningful and gave us a
chance away from our daily life to really celebrate
our time together and be grateful for our relation-
Duringthefour years theywere
dating, AnneMilfordwasnt sure
shewantedtomarryher boyfriend,
but shecertainlywantedtowant to.
Hewas a nice, responsible, success-
ful professional. Shewas watching
manyof her friends taketheplunge.
Sowhen, over dinner onher 28th
birthday, Mr. Great-On-Paper pro-
posed, Milfordaccepted. Theyset a
date, bookedthechurchandre-
servedthereceptionvenuebut
Milfordcouldnt shakethefeeling
that somethingwasnt right.
I remember thinking, I wishhe
woulddosomethingreallyrottenso
I wouldhavea great reasontocall
this off, Milfordsaid.
Couldit bejitters? Afear of leav-
ingbehindthesinglelife? For many
people, perhaps. Havingreserva-
tions as marriagelooms is com-
mon. Thetoughpart is distinguish-
ingbetweenstandardanxietyand
serious doubts.
Nervousness about settling
down, thepossibilityof divorce, and
thelikelihoodof never againsleep-
ingwithsomeoneelsearenormal
andnot reasons topull theplug,
saidMira Kirshenbaum, co-founder
of theChestnut Hill Institute, a
therapypracticeinBoston.
But if youhavea historyof un-
happiness intherelationshipor
concerns about whether your part-
ner is basicallysmart, saneor kind,
theweddingtrainshouldbestop-
pedinits tracks until youvesorted
things out, Kirshenbaumsaid.
Withdoubts likethese, the
mistakeis tothinkthat thegood
things cancel out thebadthings,
saidKirshenbaum, author of the
newbookI LoveYouBut I Dont

ship (BerkeleyTrade). But in
reality, over timethesebadthings
will destroythegoodthings.

Sometimes, a vow renewal is
not only a reminder of howfar a
couple has come but a memory
to cherish.
Winifred Wini Brunston of
Lancaster, Calif., lost her hus-
band last year. She enjoys look-
ing back to their 35th anniver-
sary, in 2004, when they renew-
ed their vows in the same small
church where they got married.
The same couple who stood up
with them back then resumed
their duties.
Brunston believes marriage
vows mean more over the years
because after beingtogether af-
ter all that time you really know
each other, and it lets the
spouse knowyou still love them
enough to marry them again.
Anja Winikka, editor of the
weddingwebsiteTheKnot.com,
believes one reasonfor the spike
of interest in vow renewals is
that some celebrity couples
have done it.
Tori Spelling and Dean
McDermott filmed their vowre-
newal for their reality TV show.
Holly Robinson Peete tweeted
photos after she and former
NFL quarterback Rodney Peete
recently celebratedtheir17-year
anniversary by renewing their
vows on top of the Empire State
Building in New York. Mariah
Carey and Nick Cannon are the
most consistent; they renew
their vows every year.
You hear about it, and just
like any trends celebrities cer-
tainly do influence us in that
way, Winikka says.
Southerland says she recently
helpedacouplewhorenewtheir
vows every year. Its always a
surprise, and the husband plans
it, she said.
Whether you renew your
vows annually or just once, in a
small ceremony or as part of a
vacation, the cost of saying I do
again can vary.
You can do something thats
very simple, thats just the hus-
band and wife standing up with
a photographer, and that can be
less than $1,000. Or Ive had
people spend upwards of 50 or
60 thousand, Southerland said.
Even a do-over bride can turn
into a Bridezilla, she says.
That still is personality-dri-
ven, which kind of makes me
chuckle, she said. Im think-
ing, Wow, youve known this
guy for a longtime. Whats there
tobenervous about? Sowhat if a
flower falls off an arch? Others
are more laid back. But you still
have some verynervous brides.

The vow renewal

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Id like
to respond to the
letter from Hurting
in Virginia Beach,
Va. (Feb. 6), who
complained that the
smell of mint chew-
ing gum triggers her
migraines. Many gum chewers, like
me, have good reasons for doing it. I
chew gum on planes because it helps
reduce sinus pressure, thus prevent-
ing my own headaches. I am also a
former smoker, and gum-chewing is a
healthier alternative to tobacco.
If Hurting explained her situation
to me, I would certainly abide by her
request to not chew, although I would
find it uncomfortable to go without
for long. I recommend she carry
several packs of non-mint gum in her
purse. When forced into close prox-
imity with a gum-chewer, she could
then offer him or her an acceptable
alternative.
Dave in Spring Hill, Fla.
Dear Dave: Your commonsense
suggestion was the one most often
repeated by my readers. I advised
Hurting that whether at a concert
or on a plane, she could ask to be
moved away from an offender. My
readers comment:
Dear Abby: I propose a different
solution. She should purchase one
(or several) of those surgical masks
that cover the mouth and nose. They
come in a variety of styles, and she
could surely find one that would
block her sense of smell. This way
she wont have to risk a confronta-
tion or depend on a third party to
get involved. Once she detects the
offensive smell, she can just put on
her mask, no one gets bothered and
everyones happy.
Tim in Salem, Ore.
Dear Abby: I sympathize with Hurt-
ing. I am a migraine sufferer myself.
The smell of many perfumes, lotions,
cleaning agents, tobacco smoke
even some foods can trigger a
migraine. Because it is nearly impos-
sible to control what other people
wear, clean with or eat, I have found
it much easier over the years to make
sure I always carry some medication
with me whenever I go out. Being
able to take my medication the min-
ute I sense a migraine coming on has
prevented many events from ending
badly for me.
Feeling Her Pain in New York
Dear Abby: I have a deadly allergy to
oranges. The smell alone can bring
me very close to anaphylactic shock,
but more often just causes a migraine
like Hurtings. I have a small bottle
of eucalyptus oil I take with me and
place a drop or two under my nose.
This will stop the reaction. Hope this
information helps.
Vernelle in California
Dear Abby: Your advice was spot on
as far as asking the gum chewer to
discard the gum, or to be reseated in
a theater. But often the house is full,
or the plane has no empty seats and
no one will switch. As I suffer from
similar issues, my father found me a
device called a personal air purifier.
It hangs around your neck (or sits in
your lap) and literally cleans the air
you breathe. It is battery-operated
and goes everywhere.
Rachel in Cherry Hill, N.J.

ARIES (March 21-April 19). When
you are afraid, your hair stands
on end. In primitive times when
humans were downright furry,
this made a difference. Today,
youll find other ways to appear
big.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You
cant control the weather, but
you can control how you react to
it. Youre in a flexible mood now
and will instantly adapt to what-
ever comes your way. Someone
new takes notice.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Youll
be drawn to a mystery. Is this
dangerous? Maybe, and thats
definitely part of the allure. Your
curiosity may get the best of
you, and youll love the daring
mood this puts you in.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Noises
wont hurt you, but they cer-
tainly can break your concentra-
tion and distract you from your
desired focus. Youll have to
make an extra effort to find a
quiet place.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Youll be in
one of your generous moods.
Youll give and keep giving until
you fall asleep tonight. The good
you send into the world will boo-
merang back to you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Youll
be disillusioned with someone.
You projected your own desires
onto the relationship, and human
nature can be so unfair. The
good news is that the person
you were looking for is out there.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youre
ready to step into the position
youve had your eye. Youll be
filling big shoes, but that doesnt
scare you. Its as though you
were always meant for this.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). When
a project stalls, it gives you time
to do the thing you wanted to be
doing in the first place: taking
care of your personal life. Your
people need the brand of atten-
tion only you can give.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You have nothing to hide, and
yet a certain someone keeps tell-
ing you secrets. If its becoming
burdensome to carry the weight
of this load, request an end to
your tenure as confidante.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Obviously, youre not going to
be motivated to accomplish any-
thing in an arena that bores you
to tears. Begin the quest for a
more interesting environment.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Youre an important member of
your community, even when all
youre doing is spreading good
will with the decency of your
cheerful smile. Friendly faces will
be everywhere you go today.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). That
so-called friend who burned
you long ago will do the same
again if you allow it to happen
and if you do, youll have no one
to blame but yourself.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (April 12).
Developments in your personal
life allow you to experience more
love than ever. It starts with a
gift you give to someone this
month. Youll make valuable con-
nections with people from a dif-
ferent background in May. Youre
ready for adventure in June.
Loved ones depend on you, and
you make them proud. Cancer
and Sagittarius people adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 7,
31, 48, 18 and 20.
