WILKES-BARRE New head-
aches may be in store for motor-
ists already frustrated by de-
tours near the too-dangerous-to-
drive-by Hotel Sterling.
Starting Monday and contin-
uing for the next six weeks, one
lane of the Veterans Memorial
Bridge, also known as the Pierce
Street Bridge and North Street
Bridge, will be closed for paving
work, the Pennsylvania Depart-
ment of Transportation an-
nounced Friday.
The announcement advises
drivers that heavy delays could
result and to use an alternate
route, if possible.
PennDOT spokesman James
May said the department is
aware of the lane closures on
River Street and West Market
Street that the city has institut-
ed to protect the public from the
structurally-unsound Sterling,
but the bridge work was
planned weeks before the de-
tours around the hotel were put
in place.
Those detours are set up di-
rectly in front of the Market
Street Bridge, which links
Wilkes-Barre and Kingston. The
Veterans Memorial Bridge links

To add to already difficult traffic patterns, the Veterans Memorial
Bridge is slated for six weeks of repairs starting Monday.

is scheduled for patching and

SHICKSHINNY Just as the
return of robins is a sure sign of
spring, the reappearance of a goril-
la on Main Street might be a tipoff
that this little river town is making
a comeback.
Jim Bach Jr. has had the life-
sized stuffed gorilla standing out-
side his storefront as an advertising
gimmick for about 17 years, first
placed there when the building
housed the furniture store he and
his father operated.
Monty the gorilla, an icon of
sorts in the town of 838 residents,
took a respite from its post when
flood waters engulfed the down-
town and left behind flood mud
and a swath of destruction. But last
week, Monty was back.

WILKES-BARRE Fire-
fighters freed a cat lodged in
the engine compartment of a
vehicle in the parking lot of
Scheils Family Market, 30
Hanover St., shortly after 7
p.m. Saturday.
Jeremy Crop said he felt his
cars power steering give out
shortly after leaving his house
on Dexter Street, so he pulled
into the nearby parking lot.
When he got out of the car
he heard the cat whining, he
said, and called 911.
Firefighters removed parts of
the car to extricate the cat,
whose leg had pulled into a
crevice by the turning of the
vehicles front axle.
The black and brown cat
was taken by firefighters to the

treatment.
It did not appear to be wear-
ing a collar or identifying tags.

POLICE BLOTTER
HARRISBURG Pennsylva-
nias law that governs the collec-
tion of DNA may soon get its
first overhaul since it was estab-
lished 16 years ago, but some are
voicing concerns about the pro-
posals effect on civil liberties as
well as the cost to taxpayers.
A bill to mandate DNA collec-
tion from people accused of seri-
ous crimes, among other chang-
es, passed the state Senate Judi-
ciary Committee unanimously
on Tuesday and will probably
get a vote in the full Senate
sometime this fall.
Current law requires people
who are convicted of a set of se-
rious felonies to submit to hav-
ing a DNA sample taken by a
swab on the inside of their
cheek. Lawmakers are now con-
sidering a requirement that
those samples be collected upon
arrest and they would be tak-
en for any felony as well as some
misdemeanors.
The American Civil Liberties
Union of Pennsylvania opposes
the bill, saying people who have
been arrested deserve the pre-
sumption of innocence. The
ACLU also argues that the ex-
pansion would greatly add to the
already overburdened state po-
lice system and the cost would
be some $13 million. The state
associations of prosecutors and
chiefs of police both support the
legislation.
About half of the states and
the federal government current-
ly take DNA from arrestees, and
the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Ap-
peals just upheld the practice.
The bill submitted by Senate
Majority Leader Dominic Pileg-
gi, R-Delaware, would also let in-
vestigators, under narrow cir-
cumstances, test crime scene
samples to see if they contain
enough markers to determine
whether the perpetrator was
likely to be a close relative of
someone whose DNA is already
in the state database. That type
of kinship analysis has been
used for paternity reasons and
to identify remains.
Sen. Daylin Leach of Mont-
gomery County, the ranking
Democrat on the Judiciary pan-
el, said that could lead to fishing
expeditions by investigators at
the expense of privacy.
Privacy rights are ve-
ry important, Leach
said. We should only
take them away from
people in clear circum-
stances.
Pileggi said police
have long been allowed
to collect and keep fin-
gerprints and photos,
records that can convey
more information about
an individual than their
DNA record.
Its a very intention-
ally chosen segment of
DNA that does not re-
veal personal character-
istics, he said.
State police have said
that their DNA lab last
year received 1,924
cases and completed 1,412, with
an average turnaround time of
240 days. The department re-
ceived 23,938 convicted offend-
er samples for testing, and the
state now has more than
240,000 offenders registered in
the National Combined DNA In-
dex System, better known as
CODIS. Over the past five years,
state police report more than
2,700 hits to samples upload-
ed by its lab.
The bill would immediately
and automatically purge DNA
records after someone is exoner-
ated under current law a
court order is required and
ban the use of the records for
human behavioral genetic re-
search.
Once you open the door to
uses other than law enforce-
ment, it introduces a whole host
of issues and problems that I be-
lieve would slow down passage
of the legislation and really are
not where my focus is on this
bill, Pileggi said.
The measure would add to the
list of crimes for which testing is
required: simple assault against
a child under 12 by an adult who
is at least 21 years old, unlawful
restraint, defiant criminal tres-
pass on school grounds, conceal-
ing the death of a child, endan-
gering the welfare of a child and
dealing in infant chil-
dren.
Other updates in-
clude accreditation
standards for forensic
DNA testing labs and
continuing education
requirements for peo-
ple involved in doing
the testing.
Most recently, the
bill was amended to
have the testing done
when someone is book-
ed, or as soon as pos-
sible after arrest, rather
than after a preliminary
hearing, and to phase
in over two years the
list of new crimes that
are covered.
Leach said it would
be bad public policy to allow col-
lection of DNA for someone who
is arrested, before any court has
determined whether he or she
did something wrong.
Our system depends on neu-
tral fact-finders as a protection
against arbitrary law enforce-
ment, Leach said.
Pileggi said the changes will
take into account improvements
in technology as well as the les-
sons learned by the use of DNA
in criminal investigations since
the state law was first enacted.
He sees it as a way to help in-
vestigators solve serious crimes
more quickly and efficiently.
The clear picture that emerg-
es from both of those trends is
we in Pennsylvania are underuti-
lizing this very important inves-
tigative tool, Pileggi said. And
when it is successfully and fully
utilized, it literally saves lives.
Plan would file more DNA
Civil libertarians are
concerned about possibly
expanding the taking of DNA.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Cele-
brating the 20th anniversary of
the start of his presidential cam-
paign, Bill Clinton on Saturday
offered a vigorous defense of
President Barack Obama against
what he called the same anti-gov-
ernment stances he faced during
his campaignandtwoterms inof-
fice.
The former president told a
crowd of about 5,000 people out-
side the Old State House Mu-
seum in downtown Little Rock,
the same spot where he an-
nounced his White House bid in
1991, that Obama faces a different
set of challenges but is battling
thesamequestions about therole
of government in growing the
economy.
Underlying
those challeng-
es is the same
old debate
about whether
government is
the problem or
whether we
needsmart gov-
ernment and a changing econo-
my working together to create
the opportunities of tomorrow,
Clinton told the crowd, which
was flooded with old campaign
signs for him or his wife, Secre-
tary of State Hillary Rodham
Clinton, who lost to Obama in
2008s Democratic nominating
contest.
The speech was the center-
piece of a weekendcommemorat-
ing Clintons presidential an-
nouncement, but it also offered
plenty of parallels between his
presidency and Obamas, includ-
ing opposition on multiple fronts
from Republicans.
Theres not a single example
on our planet, not one, where an
anti-government strategy has
produced a vibrant economy
with strong and broad-based
growth and prosperity, Clinton
said.
Clinton said Obama has of-
fered plans to stimulate the econ-
omy, reduce the long-term debt
and address the housing crisis,
and its now up to Congress to
act on those plans, and if they
dont like them, then come up
with better ideas.
Holding hands with Hillary
Clinton, the former president ar-
rived at the stage to Fleetwood
Macs Dont Stop Thinking
About Tomorrow, the song that
became the anthem of his 1992
presidential bid. The weekends
events included the dedication
Friday of a $10.5 million pedestri-
an bridge at his presidential li-
brary.
The reunion of Clinton sup-
porters and staff turned into a
pep rally of sorts for Democrats
as they approach the 2012 elec-
tion.
Clinton sees parallels to his own years
The former president uses an
appearance to defend
successor Democrat Obama.

LUZERNE COUNTY
DEP schedules spraying
The Department of Environmental
Protection will apply mosquito treat-
ments the evenings of Monday and
Tuesday in residential areas of Duryea,
Edwardsville, Swoyersville, West
Wyoming and Wyoming boroughs;
Hanover, Plains and Plymouth town-
ships; and Wilkes-Barre to control adult
mosquito populations. As a result of
recent flooding, high populations of
adult mosquitoes capable of transmit-
ting the West Nile virus have been
detected near these areas of the county.
The application material has a very
low toxicity profile to mammals and is
safe for the environment.

BUTLER TWP. The townships
annual tire recycling collection was
held on Saturday at the Butler Town-
ship Fire Hall, in Drums.
Beth DeNardi, Luzerne Countys
recycling coordinator, said the num-
ber of tires collected each year aver-
ages about 5,000.
She expects to reach that same
number this year. Between 9 and 9:30
a.m., 1,000 tires had already been
dropped off at the location. In the
nine years that the event has been in
existence, more than 160,000 tires
have been collected.
DeNardi said that 160,000 tires
has to have made a difference. We are
cleaning up the environmentevery
year we get better at doing this.
Luzerne County Constable Joe
Walters, who was in charge of traffic
and safety at the event, explained
where the tires go upon leaving the
facility.
They go to Harrisburg, where the
wire is taken out; they are sanitized
and melted down. He added there
are also two electronics drives held in
June, where computers, televisions,
house and cell phones are collected.

Up to seven local school districts,
along with West Side Career and Tech-
nology Center and the Luzerne Interme-
diate Unit, will participate in a pilot pro-
gram for a new state teacher and princi-
pal evaluation system that uses student
test results to gauge teacher effective-
ness.
AstateDepartment of Educationpress

tion entities had agreed to participate in
the program. Alist postedwiththe press
releasesaidHazletonArea, Wilkes-Barre
Area, Greater Nanticoke Area, andLake-
Lehman school districts are participa-
ting.
Luzerne Intermediate Unit Assistant
Executive Director Anthony Grieco
who sits on a panel
helping implement the
pilot program said he
receivedemail notifica-
tion that Dallas and
Wyoming Area also are
in the program, and
that he had heard Pitt-
stonAreagot onthelist
as well.
LIUExecutive Direc-
tor Hal Bloss said his
administration had dis-
cussed the idea of join-
ing the pilot program
with union representa-
tives, andthat theagen-
cy had decided to par-
ticipate because he be-
lieves the new system
will become mandato-
ry and the LIU wanted
to help shape it.
Unlike school districts, the LIUhas no
classroombuildings. It providesavariety
of services, primarily special education,
to area schools. Because of that, Bloss
said, hefeltitwasimportanttojointhepi-
lot program and make sure the new sys-
tem accounts for the way intermediate
units work.
West SideCareerandTechnologyCen-
ter Executive Director Nancy Tkatch
echoedthat point. West Sideis oneof on-
ly a handful of comprehensive voca-
tional schools in the state, meaning they
get students from school districts for a
full day and provide both academic and
vocational training. Most career centers
have the student only a half day for voca-
tional training, leaving the academic
training to the students home district.
West Side students take the state read-
ing and math tests in grade 11, but also
take tests in their vocational skills de-
visedbytheNational Occupational Com-
petency Testing Institute. Tkatch said
the center wants to make sure the new
evaluation system takes into account
NOCTI test results and the unusual na-
ture of comprehensive career centers.

SHAVERTOWN A cackling flock
of free-ranging chickens greeted vis-
itors at the annual Fall Festival at
The Lands at Hillside Farms on Sat-
urday.
The two-day harvest celebration,
Hillsides largest annual fundraiser,
features pony rides, a petting zoo,
greenhouse tours and a live demon-
stration of a working dairy farm, as
well as hay-rides and live musical en-
tertainment.
This is a family-focused weekend
for families with children, said The
Lands Executive Director Chet Mo-
zloom. It allows us to showcase our
livestock and harvest.
Mozloom said feedback from past
festivals has been extremely positive
and people come from far and wide
to enjoy the event with family and
friends.
This is a publicly owned re-
source, stated Suzanne Kelly, The
Lands spokeswoman. Families come
here throughout the year here to en-
joy the farm, walk through the stream
and eat ice cream.
Mozloom said the extensive farm
complex is undergoing continual
change and rehabilitation due to a
combination of public funding and
private donations.
Officials said the facility is a year-
round learning resource for local
school districts and local Luzerne In-
termediate Unit students participate
in a popular agriculturally sustainable
food program at the farm.
This is a great experience for chil-
dren, said Joe Charney, who attend-
ed the festival with his 3-year-old son,
Sebastian. I bring my son here a few
times a year and he loves it.

The gallery allows local artists to ex-

not only makes it possible for artists to
sell their artwork, but to be integrated
into the spirit of the gallery itself.

Mahantango Enterpris-
es, Inc., of Liverpool picks
up the tires. Eventually,
the recycled tires will be
made into items such as
mouse pads, rubber mats,
mulch, playground rubber
base, buckets and padding
for horse arenas and stalls.
The recycled tires will also
be turned into various oth-
er products.
There are two very im-
portant reasons to collect
and recycle tires. Old tires,
left sitting around, are
breeding areas for mosqui-
toes carrying the West Nile
virus. Collecting also re-
moves and prevents litter
from the roadways, as well
as other areas.
A participant, who
wished to remain anony-
mous, said that if he had
not taken his tires to this
event, most likely they
would have wound up be-
ing dumped off on the
side of the road some-
where.
Hanover Area Junior/
Senior High School will
host the next tire collec-
tion on Saturday between 9
a.m. and 3 p.m. Approxi-
mately 12,000 tires are ex-
pected to be collected.
Both the Hanover Town-
ship, as well as the Butler
Township events are free
and open to all Luzerne
County residents. Tires
must be fairly clean and off
of the rim. It is necessary
to register, and there is a
limit of 15 tires per person.
DeNardi asked that any-
one calling to register
leave a contact number
where they can be reached,
and not just an address.

The state began testing the evaluation sys-
tem last year and expanded the pilot pro-
gram this year. Districts and other education
entities can participate at many levels us-
ing the new evaluation system in just a few
classrooms or one school and need not use
the system district wide. Hazleton Area, for
example, will use the system in the high
school and at Heights Terrace elementary,
Acting Superintendent Francis Antonelli
said.
This year, the new system will be used
alongside the old, but not for any official
purpose. The state hopes to start using the
new system to gauge teacher quality as
mandated by the federal No child Left Be-
hind Law as early as 2013. Antonelli said
Hazleton Area administrators and union
leaders agreed it made sense to join the pilot
program and try to shape the system if the
change is inevitable.
The current evaluation system tends to
rely on teacher observation. According to
the press release, under the new system, 50
percent of an educators evaluation would be
comprised of multiple measures of student
achievement.
While that includes results from annual
state tests, the system uses results of other
standardized tests administered by a dis-
trict.
The new system substantially beefs up the
traditional observation system, which still
accounts for half a teachers evaluation. Both
Tkatch and Bloss said the changes are a big
improvement.
It is much more useful, Tkatch said,
The administrator can be more of an in-
structional leader. It shows what areas need
improvement the most and gives the teacher
a clear example of what you are looking for.
It lends itself to having serious discussion
between administrators and teachers on how
to improve instruction, Bloss said, rather
than simply rate a teacher satisfactory or
unsatisfactory.

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN
Haqqani leader nabbed
NATO captured a senior lead-
er of the al-Qaida- and Taliban-
allied Haqqani network active
inside Afghanistan, the alliance
said Saturday, describing it as a
significant milestone in dis-
rupting the groups operations.
NATO said Haji Mali Khan
was seized Tuesday during an
operation in eastern Paktia
province, which borders Pakis-
tan. It could dent the groups
ability to operate along the
porous border with Pakistans
lawless tribal areas.
Shortly after NATOs an-
nouncement, Taliban spokes-
man Zabiullah Mujahid denied
in a message to Afghan media
that Khan had been arrested but
provided no evidence that he
was free.
The Pakistan-based Haqqani
network is affiliated with both
the Taliban and al-Qaida and has
been described as the top secu-
rity threat in Afghanistan. The
group has been blamed for hun-
dreds of attacks.
ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN
Officer gets death
A Pakistani court on Saturday
convicted and sentenced a po-
lice officer to death for the kill-
ing of a liberal governor earlier
this year, a murder that led to
fears the country was buckling
under the weight of extremism.
The January murder of Pun-
jab provincial governor, Salman
Taseer, by one of his police
guards was alarming in itself,
but what came afterward per-
haps even more so: lawyers
showered his killer, Mumtaz
Qadri, with flowers, thousands
demonstrated in his defense and
mainstream politician failed to
publicly condemn the killing.
Qadri has told his trial that
Taseer deserved to die because
of his criticism of Pakistani laws
that mandate the death sen-
tence for insulting Islam. Taseer,
a member of the countrys rul-
ing party, wanted amendments
in the law and had defended a
Christian woman sentenced to
death under it.

NEW ORLEANS It sounds
like a horror movie: Biting ants
invade by the millions. A camp-
ers metal walls bulge from the
pressure of ants nesting behind
them. A circle of poison stops
them for only a day, and then a
fresh horde shows up, bringing
babies. Stand in the yard, and in
seconds ants cover your shoes.
Its an extreme example of
what can happen when the ants
which also can disable huge
industrial plants go un-
checked. Controlling them can
cost thousands of dollars. But
the story is real, told by some-
one whos been studying ants
for a decade.
Months later, I could close
my eyes and see them moving,
said Joe MacGown, who cu-
rates the ant, mosquito and sca-
rab collections at the Mississip-
pi State Entomological Mu-
seum at Mississippi State Uni-
versity.
Hes been back to check on
the hairy crazy ants. Theyre
still around. The occupant isnt.
The flea-sized critters are
called crazy because each forag-
er scrambles randomly at a
speed that your average picnic
ant, marching one by one, reac-
hes only in video fast-forward.
Theyre called hairy because of
fuzz that, to the naked eye,
makes their abdomens look less
glossy than those of their slow-
er, bigger cousins.
And theyre on the move in
Florida, Texas, Mississippi and
Louisiana. In Texas, theyve in-
vaded homes and industrial
complexes, urban areas and ru-
ral areas. They travel in cargo
containers, hay bales, potted
plants, motorcycles and moving
vans. They overwhelm beehives
one Texas beekeeper was
losing 100 a year in 2009. They
short out industrial equipment.
If one gets electrocuted, its
death releases a chemical cue to
attack a threat to the colony,
said Roger Gold, an entomol-
ogy professor at Texas A&M.

Late Friday, two U.S. officials

was among those killed in the
strike. The officials spoke on con-
dition of anonymity because al-
Asiris death has not officially
been confirmed.
The29-year-oldal-Asiri wasone
of the first Saudis to join the Ye-
men-based al-Qaida branch and
became its key bombmaker, de-
signing the explosives in two at-

N E W S
one smiling, Bach, 59, said.
Only one business in town, an
insurance company, was spared
the early September flooding.
The record-high waters of the
Susquehanna have left proprie-
tors struggling some with the
challenges of reopening, others
with uncertainty whether they
can come back and at least one
with a feeling of defeat.
Bach, who opened a fitness
center in the former furniture
store two years ago, is among
those who are fighting their way
back.
I have an investment here. My
familys been here for years. And
whoamI goingtosell it to? Whos
going to come here and buy this
andgivemeareasonablepricefor
it? Bach said.
Wayne Wolfe and his wife Sue
were in the midst of remodeling
the former True Value Hardware
store on West Union Street to
open their new 5 Mountains
Hardware when flooding hit.
We lost moneyonthe building
and time, but there are a lot of
people worse off than we are,
Wayne Wolfe, 54, said.
The Union Township couple
recentlyreturnedtothearea after
living in Saudi Arabia for 30
years. Wayne Wolfe took an early
retirement package from his pet-
roleum engineer job so he and
Sue could be close to their chil-
dren and grandchildren, who had
moved to the states years ago.
Were using some of that mon-
ey to do this. Its an income
stream for retirement, Wayne
said, and the fact that the store is
inafloodzonedoesnt worryhim.
This building has had water in
2011, 1972, 1938 and1909, so this
is the fourth flood in this build-
ing. It will happen again. Its not a
matter of if it will, its when it
will, he said.
Frame shop reopening
Bonnie Shane, 56, is reopening
her art and frame shop The Up-
stairs Gallery at the corner of
Main and Union streets.
Shane had moved the shop to a
ground floor section of the build-
ing so she could remodel the up-
stairs, andlost some heavy equip-
ment whenthe townflooded. But
family and friends helped Shane
and her husband, Dan, move
most everything else back up-
stairs before the flood hit.
I saved my inventory and my
customer work. I would hope (to
reopen) by the end of October,
Shane said.
The Shanes ground-floor ten-
ant wasnt as fortunate.
Jim Houseknecht, 50, lost all
theequipment inhis two-year-old
business Angelos Pizzeria. He
thought it would be covered by
the Shanes flood insurance, but
their policy covered only the
structure. He hopes to qualify for
a Small Business Administration
loan. And hes worried.
On the SBApapers, they want
to knowwhat you have for collat-
eral. I sold my classic car and I
borrowed and borrowed and bor-
rowed because, when you open
up a new restaurant, you cant go
to a bank, they dont want to talk
to you. So, pretty much, every-
things in the breeze, he said.
John Morgan, owner of the 5
Mountain Market, also is waiting
on numbers.
Whether or not we can come
back is going to dependonif I can
get these SBA loans. I dont even
have all the numbers to plug in to
the loan (application) yet. My
warehouse is workingonwhat its
going to take to do a total rebuild
here. And if its not cost-effective
to operate and pay back those
loans, if its just too much money,
we cant do it, the 47-year-old
Pittston resident said.
Theda Bellas isnt interested in
a loan for her business.
Ive beenhere 25years andnot
a drop of water on the floor, so I
didnt get any (flood) insurance.
Im too old to borrow money and
goindebt at this age, saidBellas,
of Union Township.
Ask what her plans are for
Shickshinny Floral andGifts, Bel-
las points to the sign in the front
windowof her West Union Street
shop: For Sale Make Offer.
Future is unclear
Her future may be uncertain,
but Bellas knows she doesnt
want toopenanother flower shop
somewhere else. I need to do
something different. But at 65,
Imnot sure I want todoanything
right now anyway.
The town needs a flower shop,
shesaid, but her storefront will be
flooded again in the future.
And shes not at all confident
shell be able to find a buyer.
Youcanlookat it twoways: Its
a good opportunity, but its also a
gamble. You could have another
flood next year or it could be 25
years before it happens again.
Wayne and Sue Wolfe, owners of the former Ross & Brown hardware store building on Union Street in Shickshinny, were renovating the
building when flood waters struck. The couple plans to reopen the hardware store under the name of Five Mountains Hardware.
Cleanup efforts at the Family Dollar store in Shickshinny continue
two weeks after flood waters inundated the town.
SHICKSHINNY
Jim Bach of Bachs Fit-
ness Center in Shickshin-
ny points to a neighboring
building he owns in addi-
tion to his fitness center.
He talked about the work
that is involved getting
his businesses restarted
after the Susquehanna
River flooding that oc-
curred in Shickshinny two
weeks ago caused by
Tropical Storm Lee. Bach
has placed his iconic life-
sized stuffed gorilla back
outside the fitness center.

two blocks north of the Market
Street Bridge.
May said PennDOT is facing
time constraints, as patching
work cannot be done in overly-
cold weather. The paving work
is being done in preparation for
bridge deck replacement work
slated to begin in the spring.
That construction is anticipat-
ed to last 12 to 18 months.
We had to wait for the rain
and we cant wait until it gets
too cold, May said. If we cant
get it done before the weather
gets cold, then we cant start
on it until the spring and then
everything gets pushed back.
He also said PennDOT will
monitor how the road work af-
fects traffic patterns and adapt
its plans as necessary.
On Monday well look at it,
and if its causing major head-
aches well get in contact with
the city of Wilkes-Barre to see
what our options are to make it
as convenient as possible for
the traveling public, May said.
Wilkes-Barre City spokesman
Drew McLaughlin said the
bridge work will not alter the
detour in place around the
Sterling as the detour needs to
remain in place until the build-
ing is demolished.
Emergency vehicles have al-
ready been instructed to use al-
ternate routes such as North
Main or Pennsylvania Avenue
instead of River Street.
The city understands the in-
convenience factor for people,
but public safety is para-
mount, McLaughlin said.
Lane closures on the Veter-
ans Memorial Bridge will begin
in the westbound driving lane,
then move to the westbound
passing lane, then to the east-
bound driving lane, then to the
eastbound passing lane. Work
on each lane is expected to last
two weeks, according to Penn-
DOT.
Permanent detours were in-
stalled around the Hotel Ster-
ling on Wednesday at the rec-
ommendation of two engi-
neers, who inspected the build-
ing after it took on water that
leaked from the Market Street
Bridge flood gate in early Sep-
tember. Temporary detours
had been put in place a week
earlier.
The detour closes lanes on
West Market Street and River
Street, redirecting westbound
traffic from West Market Street
onto South Franklin Street and
northbound traffic from River
Street onto West Northampton
Street.

WILKES-BARRE The Mak-
ing Strides Against Breast Can-
cer 5KWalk held Saturday morn-
ing was the first time the event
has taken place in this area.
The walk, sponsored by the
American Cancer Society, has
been held annually for the past 18
years in communities through-
out the United States.
According to media chairwo-
man, Sara Klinges, approximate-
ly500people were expectedtobe
involved with the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton walk, which started at
the Henry Student Center at
Wilkes University. It was expect-
ed to raise $50,000 for the cause.
The first Making Strides event
was heldin1993, inBoston. More
than$400millionhas beenraised
since that time, with close to 7
million walkers participating.
Tonyehn Verkitus of the Amer-
ican Cancer Society coordinated
Saturdays event, which started
off National Breast Cancer
Awareness Month. Every Octo-
ber, various organizations make
an effort to educate and make the
public more aware of this dis-
ease.
The walkers, as well as the vol-
unteers, all had personal reasons
for their attendance at Saturdays
fundraiser. Plymouth residents
Henry and Elizabeth Mertis were
among the first to register for the
walk.I am here to support my
wife, Mr. Mertis said. She will
be a two-year survivor this De-
cember.
Melissa Tanner, also of Ply-
mouth, said that she was partici-
pating withher team, the Guardi-
an Elder Care Center of Nanti-
coke. She has also personally
known individuals who have bat-
tled the disease.
Russ Keeler, of Kingston, has
volunteered with several Ameri-
can Cancer Society events, in-
cluding Relay for Life. Im here
to do whatever they need me to
do Keeler said. Joan Senchak, a
four-year cancer survivor from
Pringle, was in charge of setting
up the survivors table at the
event. Senchaks reasons for at-
tending the event were deeply
personal.
Everybody was so wonderful
during my time of needthe
American Cancer Society is
where I volunteer my free time.
Kingston resident Linda Mo-
harsky has participated in several
cancer fundraising events. Her
mother, as well as a close friend,
were both diagnosed with breast
cancer.
Another four-year survivor,
Jackie Kahley, of Plymouth, is
the only one in her family who
has ever sufferedfrombreast can-
cer. This is the first time that she
has participated in this type of
event.
This is the first year that I feel
well enough to attend, she said.

Walk at Wilkes Universi-
tys Henry Student Cen-

Saturday morning. The
event is popular national-
ly, but this was the first
time it was held in this
area. People who turned
out to help expressed
many reasons for getting
involved. Some were can-
cer survivors, while oth-
ers just wanted to help.
A popular national event
comes to town and brings out
some very committed people.

About 95 percent of that inven-

said his sons, Jamey and Jerry

Their relatives had helped to

Edwardsville
The Long John Silver Seafood
Shoppe inthe MarkPlaza opened
Friday, workers said. Other busi-
nesses on lower ground in the
complex, including flagship ten-
ants Kmart and Redners Ware-
house Market, were still in clea-
nup mode last week. A security
company has been hired to make
sure no trespassers enter.
The roughly 120 full- and part-
time workers at Redners have
been offered employment at the
chains other stores in Pittston,
NesquehoningandScranton, said
company spokesman Eric White.
Arcadia Realty, the plaza own-
er, is still assessingdamage tothe
structure and has not informed
tenants whether it will rebuild,
White said.
Redners officials have not yet
decided whether they will locate
another store at the plaza if Arca-
dia decides to repair the place,
White said.
We are still in the process of
sorting through insurance claims
and damage estimates, White
said, thanking the many custom-
ers who have contacted the com-
pany with well wishes and inqui-
ries about its future plans for the
Edwardsville location.
Kmart plans to reopen, and the
store is working with Arcadia to
calculate damages and come up
with a plan for repairs, said spo-
keswoman Kim Freely. The
stores employees she wasnt

working on other post-flood as-
signments, and they will be

George and Carol Budnovitch
ate sandwiches packed in tin foil
outsidehisself-namedautorepair
and inspection station one after-
noon last week, enjoying the
break. Theyve come every day
since the flood, chipping away at
the work and trying to keep each
other upbeat.
Some days are good and some
are bad, Carol said.
Budnovitch worked at the sta-
tion since 1952 and bought the
propertyin1975. Heestimateshis
damages at $50,000, including
the loss of antiques and a model
train setup that added ambiance
and helped make the place a han-
gout when business was slow.
He plans to reopen but doesnt
know when. He needs electricity
todetermineif theemissionstest-
ing machine that he elevated still
works, and he hasnt yet touched
the basement cleanup.
Jeff Holtz reopened his Old
Mill Pine hardware store on Exe-
ter Avenue the day after the flood
because his fellow flood victims
needed supplies.
Friends and customers arrived

height he has marked with a sign
in the store.
It was overwhelming, he said
of the support.
He didnt have floodinsurance,
because in1972 the structure had
water only inthe basement, so he
will havetopayforanewfloorand
other repairs.
Bicycles, snowblowers andlots
of other merchandise were
moved to a safe spot before the
water rose inside the structure.
The stuff that was inthe floodbut
still usable is for sale cheap in the
lot outside the store, as indicated
by a large sign that says mud

Pittston
G T Fabrication Inc. general
manager Gino Tighe said the
flood wiped out $2.5 million in
equipment andforced30employ-
ees into unemployment.
Tigheis tryingtoworkout a so-
lutionsothedisruptionandlossis
not repeated at the metal fabrica-
tionandfinishingplant. The Ben-
edict Street property has been
flooded several times since 1996,
and staying would be like Rus-
sian roulette, he said.
We need to relocate, but we
cant do that without a buyout,
he said.
The business has flood insur-
ance through the National Flood
Insurance Program, but Tighe
said the maximum coverage that
may be purchased is $500,000 to
replace contents and $500,000 to
repair building damage.
That wont come close to the
money needed to acquire new
equipment, and the business
wont receivethebuildingdamag-
es portion because hes not fixing
up the old place. Tighes head is
spinningwithnumbers that must
be crunched to figure out what it
would cost to start fresh.
He had to pay other fabricators
to complete existing orders be-
cause he doesnt want to lose cus-
tomers. Tighe said he was power-
less to remove expensive, heavy
machinerybeforethefloodhit be-
cause he neededmore time to ob-
tain a crane.
Were in a tough position, he
said.
Plains Township
Randy Randu Ayers wonders
if his regular customers are in

ern Open Pit Bar-b-que on River
Street in Plains Township.
The roof was the only part of
the building visible in the flood,
and he shows pictures on his
phoneif peopledont believehim.
He leased the building and
doesnt know if the owner will
renovate, or even if the building
can be saved.
Ayerslost anestimated$10,000
in equipment, plus missed sales
revenue. He is focusing on his
grilling and barbeque catering
businessfor nowbut hopestoreo-
pen the restaurant there or some-
where else by the spring.
He took over the restaurant
three years ago and said he had
started attracting faithful cus-
tomers and newcomers.
Things were just starting to
get moving, he said.
GreenValleyLandscapingis on
the highest ground in the Plains-
ville section of the township, but
workers still prepared by moving
equipment and supplies above
1972 flood levels.
The effort helped, but the busi-
ness still lost material that was
swept away or inundated, said
Jerry Natishan, president and
owner of the company alongwith
business partner Dale Shuman.
The office had more than 3 feet
of water, forcing two managers to
set up shop upstairs.
The solution: Green Valleys
roughly 60 employees showed up
the Sunday after the flood to doc-
ument damage, remove mud and
ruined property and to scrub.
The workers also rescued a
stray kitten that is now being
nursed back to health and will
likely be named Mud. Natishan
saidhewasthankful hehadthere-
sources to recover quickly so cus-
tomers wouldnt miss service.

Luzerne County has a loan
program that may be an option
for businesses that need to bor-
row money to repair damage
caused by tropical storms
Irene and Lee, county officials
said.
About $9 million in loan
funding is available to attract
new businesses and retain ex-
isting ones.
Applicants must commit to
creating or retaining one per-
manent, full-time equivalent
job for every $35,000 borrowed
from the county. Loan funds
are available for eligible busi-
nesses at an interest rate of 1.5
percent for terms of seven or 15
years.
Loans may finance up to half
the project costs, with a mini-
mum loan amount of $50,000
and a maximum loan amount
of $500,000. Amajority (51per-
cent or more) of the jobs must
be held by people from low- or
moderate-income families.
County Community Devel-
opment Director Andrew Reil-
ly, who oversees the loan pro-
gram, said interested business-
es must also obtain a letter of
credit from a lending institu-
tion in the amount of the loan
guaranteeing that the county
will be repaid if the borrower
stops repaying.
Borrowers must have good
credit to obtain these letters of
credit, and banks typically
charge 1 percent to 3 percent
fees, though the interest pay-
ment will be lowered as the
amount owed to the county de-
creases, he said.
The countys loan program
has many more strings at-
tached than the disaster re-
covery loans provided through
the U.S. Small Business Ad-
ministration, he said. Interest
on the SBA loans ranges from 4
percent to 6 percent.
The county loan program
may fit some businesses
needs, but for others the SBA
loan is going to be a better op-
tion for them, said Reilly, who
advises businesses to first ex-
plore SBA loans.
Information about the coun-
ty loan program may be ob-
tained by calling Community
Development at 824-7214 on
weekdays between 9 a.m. and
4:30 p.m.
Flood-damaged businesses may get county loan
For every $35,000, a full-time
equivalent permanent job must
be created or retained.
Times Leader staff
Some private nonprofit orga-
nizations may be eligible for Small
Business Administration low-
interest-rate disaster loans to help
them recover from damages
caused by Tropical Storm Irene
that occurred Aug. 26-30.
Organizations in 10 counties, in-
cluding Luzerne and Wyoming,
may be eligible. Examples include,
but are not limited to, food kitch-
ens, homeless shelters, museums,
libraries, community centers,
schools and colleges.
Disaster loan information and
application forms may be obtained
by calling 800-659-2955 (800-
877-8339 for the deaf and hard-of-
hearing), or by sending an email to

THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, OCTOBER 2, 2011
F
ather JohnHartmanis the rector at Grace Episcopal ChurchinKingston. Hartman, 63, is a native of
Lebanon County, attended York Junior College, and also served four years in the United States
Navy. For most of his life, heworkedinthefieldof not-for-profit management, includingwork
for the Boy Scouts of America, the National Audubon Society and Volunteers of America.
He was ordained a deacon in 2008 and ordained a priest in 2009. This week, he is noting
his second anniversary at Grace Episcopal Church.
Youve said that you
were very involved
withyour churchas a
youth, but then got
away from organized
religion for a while. And
though you entered the
priesthood later in life,
youve said that you always
felt a special connection with
God. I never lost Christ as my
savior. I knew that I had a very
special relationshipwithChrist. I
take so much comfort in know-
ing that Christ was both human
and divine. The idea that Christ
walked on the Earth ... he cried,
helaughed, hebled, just likeyou
and I do, and at the same time,
was God and was divine ... I take
great comfort in that and always
did. From the very beginning, even
before I went to seminary, I knew
that I was being called to a parish
ministry. And that has been con-
firmed to me over and over and over
again, almost on a daily basis.
What do you enjoy the most
about your work? Certainly what I
enjoy the most and almost every
priest will tell you this is celebrat-
ing the Eucharist on Sunday. Sunday
is the highlight of my week. Being
able to celebrate the Eucharist is
both humbling and joyful. I also love
preaching, and Im told that Im a
good preacher and I feel that Im a
good preacher. I spend a great deal
of time preparing sermons. And I en-
joy pastoral care, and being able to
help people in both good times and
bad times.
What do you do to relax? I never
really golfed before I came here, but
there are a number of avid golfers in
the parish, so Ive learned how to
play golf. But Im really, really bad.
But I go golfing, not as often as I
want, but in the summer I was ave-
raging once every two weeks. And I
enjoy gardening and cooking.
Favorite music? Anything from
the 60s. Motown, the Philadelphia
sound, the British Invasion, Califor-
nia ... anything.
Favorite city? New York, N.Y.
Without a doubt.
Favorite vacation spot? Anti-
gua.
Favorite food? Anything that is
Pennsylvania Dutch. My grandmoth-
E
ver hear the expression a kid in
a candy store?
Well, in my younger days I
wasnt just a kid in a candy store; I was
a kid who was in charge of a candy
store.
Up until the early 1960s, Wilkes-
Barres upper East Market Street was a
type of business community that we no
longer have. It was a neighborhood
shopping district, filled with stores that
could sell neighbors all over the
Heights and Mayflower anything from
two pounds of fresh fish to a roll of
linoleum designed to look like hard-
wood. Hungry for a giant dill pickle?
Need your best suit cleaned and
pressed? Want a new TV? How about a
haircut? Maybe overseas postage for a
letter? You could get all of em there
without burning up a teaspoon of gaso-
line.
Today youd need the arena and all
its allied stores and shopping centers
to approach the variety of goods and
services you once found on Brewery
Hill.
Well, anyway, back to the topic. This
swarm of little stores didnt have work-
forces; they were staffed by the found-
ing families. If your parents owned a
store, you unpacked stock, waited on
trade and swept the floor, exactly the
way farm kids fed pigs and picked corn,
with nobody ever asking Hey, how
come I have to do this?
My department was three huge
racks for candy and gum, sitting atop a
long case full of licentiously aromatic
cigars, snuff and chewing tobacco,
behind which was a tall rack of Old
Golds, Raleighs, Camels and every
other brand of cigarette known at the
time, including a super-cheap kind
called Wings. In time I extended my
borders to the soda department as well.
What power! What authority! It was
my 13-year-old judgment that made
sure an elderly gentleman got his twis-
ty, black Italian seegars for the eve-
ning, and the young sports sweating
over the pinball machine were properly
fueled by endless freezing glass bottles
of Squirt and Nehi.
The candy racks were closest to my
heart, however. Soon I made the dis-
covery that the more candy you piled
on them, the more people bought. So I
went all out with mountains of
Mounds, heaps of Hersheys and piles of
Pez.
We had a penny candy shelf as well.
That was still in the days when a cent
bought you a sizable slab of Kleins
chocolate or an enormous roll of bub-
ble gum called Blony.
At the center of my sugary universe,
on top of the counter, was a huge glass
jar filled with chunks of vanilla and
chocolate fudge, at a penny apiece. I
liked selling fudge better than anything
else because when you opened the jar
you released a scent directly from
Heaven.
Lets ask the big question. How
come, a half-century later, I dont
weigh 600 pounds and smoke like a
factory? Thats because Im living proof
of this principle: when you handle
something all day, it has no mystery for
you. I put thousands of pounds of to-
bacco in peoples hands, but never lit
the stuff up myself. I invented the
candy-sicle (a frozen candy bar on a
stick), but to this day if Im given a
choice Ill grab the grapes and opt for
the oranges. I stop at the convenience
store for a soda now and then, but its
always a small one.
Yet, once I was the lord of all petty
vices.
Eat your heart out, Willie Wonka.

HICAGOMarshall Willoughby could pass for a homeless man as he sips coffee outside a neighborhood bar in
his adopted hometown of Gary, Ind. His eyebrows are wild and bushy, his worn clothes flaked with sawdust and
spotted with grease. He smiles broadly and exposes a lower jawholding too fewteeth. But the passersby fromwhom
he cadges cigarettes know him, and if you know Marshall Willoughby even in passing, you know he has a home.
Willoughby, 66, would like to
give tours of his house, a 120-
square-foot geodesic dome made
from Styrofoam panels covered
with a thin layer of concrete. He
likes to showoff rough-hewn con-
traptions he has built to provide
creature comforts: his laptop,
tankless water heater and lights
run on a bank of old batteries
charged by solar panels, home-
made windmills, or an Army sur-
plus generator powered by a
rough-hewn contraption that
burns wood gas.
He pumps his water from his
own well. He piles his waste be-
side his garden beds, composting
his own feces into topsoil. In
drums near his melon patch rest
gallons of his urine, decanting in-
to ammonia fertilizer. He gets
about half his calories from his
garden, the rest from occasional
bike trips to the grocery store or a
local hot dog stand.
With his gap-toothed grin and
his yard strewn with rusting ma-
chines, Willoughby knows howit
looks. In the most genial way pos-
sible, he will tell you that you are
the crazy one.
People are so damn ignorant
about energy, he said.
Willoughby admits he lives at
the extreme end of a spectrum of
environmental awareness, that
he lives as a survivalist surround-
ed by people who prefer to thrive.
He ascribes to the decades-old
ethos of permaculture, defined
by Willoughby as expending as
little energy as possible in ex-
change for a maximum return, to
replace all that is taken from the
environment. Eat a carrot one
day, pile your feces next to the
garden patch the next.
In Chicagos Rogers Park
neighborhood, Milton Dixon
heads a permaculture meet-up
group and knows which parks he
canforage for crabapples tojuice.
He, and most of his peers, ac-
knowledge that urban permacul-
ture involves co-existing with na-
ture and society.
Extreme sacrifice like Wil-
loughbys can make one some-
what isolated from neighbors liv-
ing a more conventional lifestyle.
Willoughby doesnt care.
He can start preaching pretty

quickly when you first get to
know him, said Grischa Kurz, a
friend and neighbor. Kurz recalls
visiting Willoughby last winter,
when a fire damaged his hut.
Friends offered to let him stay
with them, to collect money to
build him a new, slightly larger
place.
He did not seem interested at
all, Kurz recalled.
Less committed people may
have placed a brick in their toilet
tank to save water. They may
commute in hybrid cars. They
may believe these small sacrific-
es make their lifestyle sustaina-
ble. One day, Willoughby be-
lieves, there will be no gas for
your cars and your toilet will not
flush. If that day comes and
Willoughby believes it will soon
he will wake again on the floor
of his dome, load wood into his
generator, and his life will not
have changed at all.
He has become acquainted
with permaculture first out of
concern for personal economy,
then for the ecology, and finally,
ideology.
His second guiding belief is
peak oil, a controversial theory
that the earths petroleum re-
serves are near their maximum
output andthat they will dwindle
fast faster, Willoughby thinks,
than his neighbors will be willing
to trade in their McMansions for
domed sheds.
Both permaculture and peak
oil alignwitheverythingthat Wil-
loughbys life has affirmed to
him, a lifethat has valuedimprov-
isation.
For 20 years starting after he
returned from service in Viet-
nam, Willoughby rana successful
auto repair business in Hyde
Park, Ill., where his clients in-
cluded University of Chicago stu-
dents and faculty.
He wasnt home from Vietnam
long when Middle East nations
put an oil embargo in place, and
he watched the polite society of
his neighborhood fray. Graduate
students scuffled with each other
in lines for rationed gas. Women
who wouldnt give a grease mon-
key like himthe time of day were
suddenly very interested, if he
hadaccess toafewgallons of fuel.
When the landlord lost the
building to a bank, he was again
without a lease or credit. His re-
pair business, which had once
counted 14 employees and con-
sumed 70 hours of his week, was
gone.
He movedto a friends house in
Gary and wound up delivering
pizzas, saving money for a house
of his ownthat wouldgenerateno
bills. When he was laid off by the
pizza parlor in 2000, he was done
with jobs.

er was afabulous cook, andI try
to make the things that she
did.
Favorite movie? Almost
anything with John Wayne.
One of his movies, North To
Alaska, I really love. And The
Sound of Music. Its probably
the only musical that I really
like. And I was an aficionado for
years of all of the James Bond
movies.
First car? A 1966 British
racing green Austin-Healey
Sprite. I bought it brandnewoff
the showroom floor for $1,895
dollars, and I could fill up the
tank of gas for a little more
than 2 bucks, and it would last
me for at least a week.
What are you reading?
Goodness Gracious Green by
Judy Pace Christie.
Favorite quote? Feed My
Sheep.
Most memorable moment?
Being ordained. I started the
process in 2000 and was or-
dainedin2009, sofor nineyears
I kept working toward this goal.
And so finally, when I was or-
dained into the priesthood, I
thought it wasthegreatest thing
in the world. I still pinch myself.
MEET
Alan K. Stout writes about area
people for the Meet feature. Reach
him at 970-7131.
10, 12 years, Willoughby said. I
do not have a job. You dont need
a job. Theres enough work to
do.
Hemovedintoacamper vanon
a lot a friend bought for him for
$7,000. Eventually, he bought a
dome kit for $350, plus shipping.
Willoughby estimates that he
lives on perhaps $4,000 a year,
mostly money from repair jobs.
Last week, he applied for Social
Security, which he figures will
give him a few hundred dollars a
month.
He knows that the neighbors
who call him for help fixing their
cars or digging out their sewer
lines may get tiredof his lectures.
He knows experts, smart people,
debate the concepts underlying
peak oils apocalyptic vision. In-
side his dome, he waits.
I have been out here so long
because you have to know your
neighbors, he said. Ive talked
til Im blue in the face. People
hate to see me coming.
Someday, theyll be comingto
me.

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. The final
pass of the game fell well short of the end
zone, knocked loose by a gang of Penn
State defenders.
The ball foundits way into the paws of
senior Eric Latimore,
and the senior disposed
of it in less than a sec-
ond, giving it an em-
phatic spike into the
fake grass at Indiana.
Call it half celebra-

How had it even reac-

TUNKHAN-
NOCK
On a chilly 64-degree
night, it took the Phil-
lies offense a little while
to warm up.
St. Louis starter Kyle
Lohse retired the first 10
batters he faced, until
Chase Utley ripped a
double off the right field
wall. Utley wound up
scoring when Shane Victorino
poked an RBI single -- after third
baseman David Freese dropped
his two-out foul pop for an error.
Those were the only two hits
Lohse surrendered through the
games first five innings.
But they were waving white
flags over the next two innings -
or rather, the third-largest crowd
in Citizens Bank Park history of
46,480 fans were deliriously wav-
ing their white rally towels.
PHILADELPHIA --
When Lance Berkmans
booming three-run
homer quieted a stadi-
um full of excitement for
the start of the playoffs
at Citizens Bank Park, it
seemed the St. Louis
Cardinals had Roy Halladay on
the ropes.
Like most of the pitches the ace
of the Philadelphia Phillies
throws, looks were deceiving.
Halladay rebounded by retiring
the final 21 batters he faced Sat-
urday, Ryan Howard and Raul Iba-
nez belted long home runs, and
the Phillies exploded during a
five-run sixth inning to rally past
St. Louis, 11-6 in a National
League division series opener.
"Its huge to be able to get off to
a fast start," Howard said.

SCOREBOARD
THEY SAY
THE big slug-
ger in middle
of the Philadel-
phia Phillies
lineup doesnt
deliver enough
big hits -- that
many of his mighty shots turn
out to be meaningless.
Well, the one he delivered
Saturday meant the world to
the Phillies.
It may have made all the
difference between winning
and losing.
When Howard blasted a
three-run homer to give the
Phillies the lead in the sixth
inning, it not only lifted the
Phillies to a 4-3 lead over the
St. Louis Cardinals. It hoisted
a huge weight off his shoul-
ders.
Because the big man has
come up small in similar sit-
uations during the past.
Howard had a horrible
World Series when the Phillies
lost to the Yankees in 2009,
hitting just .179 with just three
home runs in the postseason
that year.
When Phillies need him
the most, Howard delivers

WILKES-BARRE Even if it
couldnt be seen in Saturdays
final score or the teams re-
cord, this is a different Holy
Redeemer squad from last
year.
Take last years game with
GAR, for example, when the
Grenadiers scored 41 points
on nine plays in two quarters.
Fast forward to Saturdays
rematch. The Royals found
themselves tied with Darrell
Crawford and the Grenadiers
at 20 apiece with four minutes
remaining in the second quar-
ter.
Unfortunately for Joe Os-
trowskis club, the Grenadiers
posted 35 con-
secutive points
in an 8:14 span
to shut down
the Royals by a
68-26 score.
We matched
them athlete-
for-athlete in (Dave) Gawlas
and (Darrell) Crawford, Os-
trowski said. Unfortunately,
we turned the ball over twice
and GAR never looked back.
Crawford had a landmark
day for the Grenadiers. The se-
nior quarterback ran for 157
yards on eight carries an av-
erage of 19.6 yards per run.
In total, Crawford accumu-
lated for seven touchdowns.
He scored touchdowns on a
punt return, kick return and
five rushing scores.
Royals quarterback Gawlas
matched Crawford score-for-
score in the first half. Gawlas
ran for two touchdowns and
threw a 19-yard touchdown
pass to Jim Strick to give Holy
Redeemer a 6-0 lead in the
first quarter. Gawlas finished
the day with 158 yards rushing
on 28 carries.
Holy Redeemer tied the
game with 3:59 remaining in
the second quarter when Mike
Martin bullied his way for a 9-
yard touchdown to make it 20-
20.
After a successful onside
kick to begin the second half,
the Royals fortunes soured
when Shakir Soto intercepted
a pass and went for 54 yards
for a touchdown with 11:04 re-
maining in the third quarter.
Soto also recorded three
sacks for a loss of 28 yards for
GAR.

in Freedom opener
other blocked punt the Comets
recoveredat the Tunkhannock3-
yard line.
Despite the outburst and a de-
fense that stifled Tunkhannock
(0-5), Crestwood coach Greg
Myers was concerned entering
the game.
Theres no doubt they im-
proved the first couple weeks,
said Myers, whose team im-
proved to 4-1. They took Hazle-
ton right down to the wire. You
look at it, they got stopped in-
side the 5 once andhadHazleton
backed up on the final drive they
eventually won the game on.
They were definitely an im-
proved football team and we
were worried about them.
Myers was also worried about
howhis teamwould react after a
26-21 loss at East Stroudsburg
North last weekend under simi-
lar weather conditions.
It was extremely important,
Myers said. Thats howI left last
Friday night how are we going
torespond? We talkedabout hav-
ing good leadership and I didnt
think we had it last week despite
the conditions we tried playing
in. But our leaders stepped up
this week, and we responded ex-
actly the way I wanted.
After Picketts interception re-
turn, Legg pounced on the ensu-
ing squib kick. He scoredona13-
yard run five plays later, increas-
ing the advantage to 35-0. Then
after holding Tunkhannock on a
fourth-and-1, Crestwood moved
56 yards on seven plays. Evan
Callaghans 7-yard run made it
42-0 going into halftime.
The only intrigue left in the fi-
nal two quarters was whether
Crestwood would pitch its first
shutout since defeating Hanover
Area 24-0 in 2006, a span of 54
games.
Tunkhannock moved to the
Crestwood 19 late in the game,
but misfired on consecutive pas-
ses.

COLUMBUS, Ohio Kirk
Cousins threw a 33-yard scoring
pass to B.J. Cunningham and
Michigan States No. 1-ranked
defense overwhelmed Ohio
State 10-7 Saturday, shutting out
the Buckeyes until the final
seconds.
Michigan State (4-1, 1-0 Big
Ten) came in as the national
leader in total defense (172
yards per game) and passing
defense (101 ypg) and almost
matched those numbers. The
Spartans allowed just 178 total
yards and 143 yards through the
air.
The Buckeyes (3-2, 0-1), be-
hind true freshman quarterback
Braxton Miller, stumbled and
bumbled all day on offense. Joe
Bauserman led Ohio State to its
only score, a 34-yard pass to
Evan Spencer with 10 seconds
left. The Spartans then reco-
vered the onside kick.
Dan Conroy added a 50-yard
field goal for the Spartans, far
from flawless but thoroughly in
command.
Wisconsin 48, Nebraska 17
MADISON, Wis. Russell
Wilson gave Nebraska a harsh
welcome to the Big Ten, throw-
ing for two touchdowns and
running for another in No. 7
Wisconsins rout of the eighth-
ranked Cornhuskers at Camp
Randall Stadium.
Montee Ball ran for 151 yards
and four touchdowns for the
Badgers (5-0, 1-0 Big Ten). But
Wilson was the main attraction
for a prime-time television audi-
ence as Wisconsin overcame a
slow start to solidify its status
as the class of the conference.
Taylor Martinez threw three
interceptions for the Huskers
(4-1, 0-1), who showed they
werent quite ready for the best
of the Big Ten.
Michigan 58, Minnesota 0
ANN ARBOR, Mich. De-
nard Robinson threw two touch-
down passes and ran for a TD to
lead No. 19 Michigan in a win
over Minnesota.
The Wolverines (5-0, 1-0 Big
Ten) had their most lopsided
win since beating Indiana by the
same score in 2000.
Vincent Smith scored on a
run, pass and catch to help
Michigan lead 38-0 at halftime.
Robinson was 15 of 19 for 169
yards and didnt throw an in-
terception for the first time
since the opener and had a
season-low six rushing attempts
for 51 yards. He was taken out in
the third quarter.
Illinois 38, Northwestern 35
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. Quarter-
back Nathan Scheelhaase scored
a 1-yard touchdown with 13
seconds left to lead No. 24 Illi-
nois to a comeback win over
Northwestern.
The sophomore QB threw for
a career-high 391 yards and
three touchdowns for the Illini
(5-0, 1-0). All three TD passes
went to A.J. Jenkins, who had 12
catches for a school-record 268
yards.
Scheelhaase had to engineer
two comebacks to pull out the
win over the Wildcats (2-2, 0-1).

ahead touchdown with1:41 left

Texas A&Ma rude previewof
what it can expect fromthe SEC
next season in a 42-38 victory
Saturday.
The Razorbacks (5-1) trailed
by 18 at halftime, and hadnt led
before Green squeezed through
the left side of the line.
This makes two straight
weeks the Aggies (2-2) have
thrown away a huge halftime
lead. They were up by 17 at
home against Oklahoma State
last week.
Wilson was 30 of 51 for 510
yards and three touchdowns,
and ran for a 2-point conversion
that tied the game at 35.
Wright caught 13 passes for
281 yards and two touchdowns.
He also made a heads up recov-
ery of a loose ball rolling into
the end zone on the touchdown
capped by Wilsons conversion.
Christine Michael ran for 230
yards and three touchdowns for
A&M, but was stuffed on a
fourth down to end his teams
last chance.
Alabama 38, Florida10.
GAINESVILLE, Fla. Trent
Richardson ran for 181 yards
and two touchdowns, breaking
tackles and carrying defenders
along the way, and No. 3 Alaba-
ma rolled No. 12 Florida in an
early season matchup of South-
eastern Conference heavy-
weights.
Richardson finished with his
fourth consecutive 100-yard
game, and the latest one should
solidify his position as one the
Heisman Trophy front-runners.
With Richardson leading the
way, the Crimson Tide (5-0, 2-0
SEC) extended its recent dom-
inance in the series. Alabama
has outscored the Gators (4-1,
2-1) 101-29 in three wins in as
many seasons.
The latest one was over by
halftime.
Florida struck first, getting a
65-yard touchdown pass from
John Brantley to Andre Debose.
It was one of fewhighlights for
the Gators, who couldnt run,
couldnt stop the run and lost
Brantley to a right leg injury
late in the second quarter.
LSU35, Kentucky 7
BATONROUGE, La. Jor-
dan Jefferson scored on his first
play back fromsuspension and
cornerback Tyrann Mathieu
scored after setting an LSU
record for career forced fum-
bles.
Jefferson was reinstated this
week after a grand jury reduced
his charges in connection with a
bar fight to a misdemeanor.
Jarrett Lee remained the starter
at quarterback.
LSUcoach Les Miles inserted
Jefferson on an early fourth-and-
goal, and Jefferson dove over
the goal line to give the Tigers
(5-0, 2-0 SEC) a 7-0 lead. Lee
later hit Odell BeckhamJr. for a
51-yard score, their second TD
connection of more than 50
yards in two games.
Kentucky (2-3, 0-2) did not
threaten to score until LSUled
35-0.
Boise State 30, Nevada10
BOISE, Idaho Doug Mar-
tin ran for two touchdowns and
Boise States suffocating de-
fense shut down Nevadas po-
tent offense.
Boise States defense dom-
inated throughout the game and
prevented the Wolf Pack (1-3)
fromcrossing midfield until
midway through the third quar-
ter.
Martin rushed for 126 yards
on 21 carries, and his 43-yard
touchdown run early in the
third quarter put the Broncos
(4-0) up 27-0. His best game of
the season helped offset a lack-
luster performance by Kellen
Moore and the rest of the Boise
State offense.
Moore threwtwo touch-
downs, but was also intercepted
on back-to-back possessions in
the second quarter. Moores
second touchdown pass gave
him113 in his career, moving
past Colt McCoy of Texas for
eighth best all-time.
Auburn16, South Carolina13
COLUMBIA, S.C. Barrett
Trotter threwa 9-yard touch-
down pass to Phillip Lutzenkir-
chen with1:38 left to lift Au-
burn.
The Tigers (4-1, 2-0 South-
eastern Conference) had strug-
gled to move the ball against
South Carolinas defense. Trot-
ter had thrown two intercep-
tions and was sacked four times
by the Gamecocks (4-1, 2-1). But
down13-9, Barrett led Auburn
on a 12-play, 57-yard drive that
ended with a pass to wide open
Lutzenkirchen in front of the
goal line.
The junior fumbled the ball
into the end zone, then reco-
vered it just before sliding out of
bounds to put Auburn ahead.
South Carolina advanced to
Auburns 29 on its final posses-
sion before time expired,
though Gamecocks coach Steve
Spurrier argued that clock
should have stopped with1
second left after a completed
pass for a first down.
Michael Dyer ran for 141
yards on a career-high 41 carries
and had a 1-yard TDfor Auburn,
which has won its past 11 SEC
games.
SMU40, TCU33
FORT WORTH, Texas J.J.
McDermott threwa 19-yard
touchdown pass to Jeremy
Johnson in overtime and SMU
recovered froma fourth-quarter
comeback for an upset.
The loss ended a school-
record 22-game home winning
streak for the Horned Frogs
(3-2).
SMU(4-1) coughed up a
16-point lead in the fourth quar-
ter before McDermott hit John-
son on a deep out route in the
end zone for his fourth scoring
toss of the game.
TCUs bid to tie ended when a
tipped pass fromCasey Pachall
bounced off the chest of Bran-
don Carter just past the first-
down marker.
The Mustangs beat a ranked
opponent for just the second
time since the NCAA imposed
the so-called death penalty
nearly 25 years ago.
Georgia Tech 45,
North Carolina State 35
RALEIGH, N.C. Orwin
Smith rushed for three touch-
downs and Georgia Tech extend
its best start in more than 20
years.
Smith finished with 74 yards
and scored on runs of 13, 9 and
3 yards to help the YellowJack-
ets (5-0, 2-0 ACC) open with
five wins for the first time since
their national championship
season in1990.
Georgia Tech led 21-0, briefly
allowed N.C. State to make a
game of it in the third quarter
and pulled away with three
touchdowns in a 2-minute,
22-second span of the fourth.
West Virginia 55,
Bowling Green10
MORGANTOWN, W.Va.
Freshman Dustin Garrison
rushed for 291 yards and two
touchdowns to lead West Virgin-
ia.
West Virginias Geno Smith
continued his solid season by
throwing for three scores. But
for the first time, the Mountain-
eers (4-1) found balance in their
offense.
West Virginia entered the
game as one of the worst rush-
ing teams in the FBS with 306
total yards. The Mountaineers
compiled 360 yards on the
ground Saturday.
West Virginia held the Mid-
American Conferences highest-
scoring offense to 217 total
yards. The Falcons (3-2) entered
the game averaging 38.5 points.
Kansas State 36, Baylor 35
MANHATTAN, Kan. Rob-
ert Griffin III threwhis first
interception of the year at exact-
ly the wrong moment.
Arthur Brown picked off
Baylors star quarterback in the
closing minutes Saturday, set-
ting up a 31-yard field goal by
Anthony Cantele that sent un-
beaten Kansas State to an upset
over the No. 15 Bears.
Collin Klein threwfor 146
yards and two touchdowns and
added113 yards and another
score for the Wildcats (4-0),
who won their third straight Big
12 opener this one in dramat-
ic fashion.
Kansas State trailed 35-26
midway through the fourth
quarter when Klein engineered
a 13-play, 70-yard drive that he
capped with a short touchdown
plunge.
Still, Baylor (3-1) took over
needing only a couple first
downs to wrap up its first 4-0
start since 1991. Instead, Griffin
missed Brown sliding over
across the middle and Kansas
States defensive captain hauled
in the throwafter a slight, heart-
stopping bobble.
Griffin finished 23 of 31 for
346 yards and five touchdowns
and one big interception.
Miami 45,
Bethune-Cookman14
MIAMI Lamar Miller ran
for 102 yards and two touch-
downs, Tommy Streeter caught
two scoring passes and Miami
used a series of quick scores to
shake off a dreadful early start
and beat Bethune-Cookman.
All five of Miamis offensive
touchdown drives took under 2
minutes two of themcheck-
ing in at 10 seconds or less.
Jacory Harris completed12 of
17 passes for 175 yards for Mia-
mi (2-2).
Bethune-Cookman (2-2) was
facing a major-college opponent
for the first time in its 86-year
history, and took an early 7-0
lead when Jackie Wilson found
Eddie Poole with a 1-yard touch-
down pass.
The Wildcats kept that edge
until midway through the sec-
ond quarter, when Miami got
touchdowns fromStreeter and
Miller to take the lead for good.
The final score said blowout.
In actuality, it was anything but.
For 22 minutes, Bethune-Cook-
man seemed like too much for
Miami to handle.
Maryland 28, Towson 3
COLLEGE PARK, Md.
Danny OBrien threwtwo sec-
ond half touchdowns and Mary-
lands defense forced four sec-
ond half turnovers, helping the
Terrapins pull away against
in-state foe Towson.
Maryland (2-2) snapped a
two-game losing streak with the
win, but failed to convert on any
of its third or fourth downs in
the first half, and led 7-3 at
halftime.
OBrien completed14 of 21
passes for 123 yards. Davin
Meggett added102 rushing
yards; as Maryland finished
with 335 yards total offense
198 rushing.
Towson came in leading all
Football Championship Series
teams in scoring defense, allow-
ing an average of 10 points per
game, and they held the Mary-
land offense in check until the
Tigers began committing turn-
overs.
The Tigers (3-1) had the ball
for 21:30 of the games first 30
minutes, keeping Marylands
offense off the field, but commit-
ted four turnovers in the second
half.
Virginia 21, Idaho 20
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va.
A two-point conversion pass by
Idahos Brian Reader fell in-
complete and Virginia escaped
with a victory in overtime.
Idahos Daniel Micheletti ran
in a blocked punt and Reader
completed a two-point con-
version pass to Marsel Posey to
tie the game 14-14 in the fourth
quarter and force overtime.
Virginia (3-2) got the ball first
in the extra period and scored
on David Watfords 27-yard pass
to Dominique Terrell. Reader
matched that with a 23 yard TD
pass to Armauni Johnson.
Western Michigan 38,

EAST HARTFORD, Conn.
Alex Carder threwfor a career-
high 479 yards and five touch-
downs to lead Western Michi-
gan to a win over Connecticut.

rushed for a score while break-
ing Carson Palmers 2002 yar-
dage record with a blistering
performance against Arizonas
maligned defense.
The Trojans (4-1, 2-1 Pac-12)
needed almost every yard
against Arizonas Nick Foles,
who passed for 425 yards and
four TDs of his own. USC out-
gained Arizona 582-554 in a
game largely devoid of defense.
Toledo 36, Temple13
PHILADELPHIA David
Fluellen scored two touch-
downs to help Toledo score 21
unanswered points and beat
Temple in the Mid-American
Conference opener for both
teams.
After a Dwight Macon touch-
down gave Toledo a 22-13 lead,
Fluellen caught a 20-yard pass
fromAustin Dantin to put the
Rockets ahead 29-13 in the third
quarter. Fluellen then scored
again on a 1-yard run to extend
the lead to 36-16 and seal the
victory for Toledo (2-3).
Fluellen finished with four
catches for 67 yards and added
41 yards rushing on eight car-
ries.

ond quarter.

Boyd and No. 13 Clemson be-
came the first Atlantic Coast
Conference teamto beat ranked
teams three weeks in a row, and
did it resoundingly with a victo-

FIRST QUARTER
IU -- Mitch Ewald 49-yard field
goal, 6:57. Drive: 9 plays, 47 yards,
1:51. Comment: The game had
started off well enough for Penn
State, as the Lions forced a three-
and-out and Rob Bolden -- start-
ing for the fifth straight game --
had the Nittany Lions moving. But
mistakes cost the Lions touch-
downs. Bolden underthrew a
wide-open Derek Moye, turning an
easy score into a 40-yard gain. A
hold on Andrew Szczerba then
negated a Silas Redd touchdown
run. One play later, Bolden mis-
fires to Szczerba over the middle,
and the tight end can only bat the
pass into the air, where its in-
tercepted by Forisse Hardin at the
1. Indiana takes the gift and drives
for the games first points. INDI-
ANA 3, PENN STATE 0.
SECOND QUARTER
PSU -- Anthony Fera 22-yard field
goal, 5:46. Drive: 12 plays, 65
yards, 2:57. Comment: Matt
McGloin takes over for the entire
second quarter, but the results
arent much better. Curtis Dukes
breaks off a few nice runs and
McGloin makes one of the better
throws of the game, hitting Shaw-
ney Kersey over top of the cov-
erage to set the Lions up in the
red zone. But the offense stalls at
the 5 and settles for just a field
goal to send an awful-looking
game into halftime tied. IU 3,
PSU 3.
THIRD QUARTER
PSU -- Fera 27-yard field goal,
12:18. Drive: 4 plays, 3 yards , 0:52.
Comment: Just like in the Temple
game, the Penn State defense
tries its best to win the game by
itself. Sean Stanley, an emerging
playmaker at defensive end,
makes a great play to strip tail-
back Stephen Houston in the
backfield and Devon Still jumps on
the loose ball at the Indiana 13.
Well, the drive summary says it
all. Four plays, 3 yards for the field
goal. On third down, Bolden deliv-
ers a ball between Justin Brown
and Devon Smith -- hard to tell
which one it was even intended
for. Its that kind of day for the
Lions. PSU 6, IU 3.
PSU -- Derek Moye 74-yard pass
from Matt McGloin (Fera kick), 1:31.
Drive: 1 play, 74 yards, 0:10. Com-
ment: It was looking very doubtful
we would hit this point, but yes, in
fact, one of these teams has
found the end zone. With McGloin
under center, he winds up for his
favorite play -- any kind of deep
pass to Moye. He had a much
easier throw available, as fullback
Joe Suhey was ignored by the
defense streaking down the mid-
dle of the field with no one within
25 yards of him in any direction.
But Moye gets separation on his
man and McGloin hits the tougher
throw, nailing the big man in
stride and allowing him to com-
fortably stroll the final 30 yards
into the end zone. PSU13, IU 3.
FOURTH QUARTER
PSU -- Fera 33-yard field goal,
10:10. Drive: 13 plays, 63 yards,
5:39. Comment: McGloin hits
Justin Brown and Moye on con-
secutive third-and-long plays to
keep the offense moving down to
the Hoosiers 16. McGloin takes off
on third-and-7 and makes two
tacklers miss -- but the second
one catches his foot and causes
him to stumble before he can turn
the corner toward the end zone
and the field goal patrol comes
out once again in the red zone In
this game, 16 points should be
more than enough. PSU16, IU 3.
IU -- Ted Bolser 5-yard pass from
Dusty Kiel (Ewald kick), 3:51. Drive:
14 plays, 77 yards, 3:45. Comment:
Or maybe not. The Hoosiers
exhausting no-huddle scheme
finally begins to wear down the
Lions in the final minutes. Kiel
converts twice on third down and
once on fourth down, pulling
Indiana into the red zone for the
first time all game. Kiel then
throws one where only his tight
end can catch it as Bolser snags
the score over Nick Sukay to give
Indiana a chance. PSU16, IU10.

PLAY OF THE GAME
Penn State had two turnovers
deep in Indiana territory, so any
play the Lions actually scored on
was going to be huge. Getting the
ball back at the end of the third
quarter, Matt McGloin was looking
for Derek Moye all the way. The
pass hung up against the wind but
McGloin still managed to hit Moye
in stride for a 74-yard touchdown
that proved to be the difference.
den Hoosiers (1-4), and it nearly
cost them the game.
Well I didnt think we looked
very goodtoday, coachJoe Pater-
nosaid. Wegot todosomethings
better. Were obviously not stay-
ing on blocks. We didnt do a cou-
ple things. We got to go back
home try to get a little better.
Weve got a lot of work to do --
Im not going to disagree with
that. But we hung in there and we
won the game. Thats what youre
supposed to do.
Conventional wisdom said
Penn State was supposed to have
more success against an Indiana
defense that had surrendered 106
points in its opening four games.
The Lions 16 points were less
than every other Indiana oppo-
nent scored, including Ball State
(27), North Texas (24) and even,
yes, South Carolina State (21).
Movingtheball wasnt theprob-
lem. Penn State held a 464-256
edgeintotal yards. TheLions held
amassivetime-of-possessionedge
of 37:27 to 22:33.
But Penn State blew several
chances, reaching the red zone
five times and scoring just three
field goals.
Were just stopping ourselves,
McGloin said. Weve definitely
got to improve in red zone. Three
field goals -- that just cant happen
in Big Ten play.
Bolden (6-of-14, 67 yards) start-
ed for the fifth straight game, but
the issues on offense started on
the first drive.
Silas Redd (129 yards) scored
an 8-yard touchdown on a nice
counter play, only tohave it wiped
out by a holding call.
The next play saw Bolden
throw behind his target and the
pass was battedintotheair andin-
tercepted by Indiana at the goal
line. That ledtoa fieldgoal andan
early 3-0 lead for the Hoosiers.
Penn State later stalled at the
Indiana 5-yard line, settling for an
Anthony Fera fieldgoal andanug-
ly 3-3 tie at the half.
Defensively, SeanStanleymade
another big play in the third quar-
ter, stripping tailback Stephen
Houstoninthebackfieldas Devon
Still jumped on the loose ball at
the Hoosiers 13.
Again, only a field goal for the
Lions.
Boldens best drive of the game
went 12 plays down to the 2, only
to see Redd fumble it away.
It wasnt until McGloin came
back into the game late in the
third quarter that the Lions of-
fense finally came through. The
Scranton native hit Derek Moye
streaking down the right sideline
for a74-yardtouchdownanda13-3
lead.
McGloinledthe Lions toanoth-
er field goal in the fourth quarter
andfinished10-of-22 for 204 yards
and a touchdown.
Indiana answered with a late
touchdown and converted two
fourth downs in the final minute
to reach the Lions 40-yard line
with two seconds left.
McGloin said after the game he
felt he had a breakthrough last
week with three touchdowns
against EasternMichiganandwas
disappointed he didnt earn his
first start of the season.
Sure, yeah, I was disappoint-
ed, McGloinsaid. Whowouldnt
be? I thought I playedwell enough
(last week) to get the start. I
thought I playedwell enough(Sat-
urday) to get the start next week.
But as of right nowI havenoidea.
The coaches, however, contin-
ue to be vague about their ratio-
nale behind the rotation, includ-
ing how they pick a starter each
week.
Quarterbacks coach Jay Pater-
no said McGloin, who has been
statistically superior to Bolden
through five games, was a good
player off the bench.
McGloinbristledat that charac-
terization.
I think Im a good player
whether I start or come off the
bench I really dont agree with
that at all, McGloin said. Id like
to be out on the field first. I think I
deserve to be out on the field first
after the past two games.
Whether the coaches agree is
anyones guess.
AP PH OTO
Penn State head coach Joe Paterno looks on during a game
against Indiana in Bloomington, Ind., on Saturday.
LIONS
Continued from Page 1C
BLOOMINGTON, Ind. -- They
tried to prepare for the tempo
all week. Tried being the oper-
ative word.
But nothing Penn State could
do with its scout team came
close to replicating Indianas
no-huddle attack, which regu-
larly lined up for another snap
within 20 seconds of the previ-
ous play.
Even fifth-year seniors like
Devon Still said they had never
played against anything like it.
We tried to imitate that
speed in practice and we didnt
do a good job, defensive tackle
Devon Still said with a laugh.
Because that wasnt nowhere
close to how it was out there.
Theyre a fast-paced offense and
that really wore us down.
It made a difference in the
fourth quarter as the Hoosiers
scored their only touchdown of
the game on a 14-play drive
before coming within 40 yards
of a game-winning score on the
games final play.
But through three quarters
the Nittany Lions defense held
strong, even without two of the
units top starters in Michael
Mauti and DAnton Lynn.
Indiana had just 136 total
yards headed into the final
frame until adding 120 more in
the final frame. Even better, the
Lions forced nine three-and-outs
and forced a turnover on the
first play of another drive.
That left the Lions with just
enough gas to close out the
game with the offense contin-
uing to struggle.
We go into every game ex-
pecting it to be on the defenses
shoulders, Still said. Its been
like that all season. We like that
type of pressure. We like to have
to play up to that (level).
As long as we keep playing
like weve been playing, were
gonna keep our offense in the
game and give us a chance to
win.
Infirmary report
Already down one corner-
back, the Lions suffered another
loss in the secondary when
Lynns replacement, junior Ste-
phon Morris injured an ankle.
How severe, I couldnt tell
you, defensive coordinator
Tom Bradley said. He tweaked
it there toward the end of the
second quarter, came back in
the third and hurt it again.
True freshman Adrian Amos
stepped in for Morris, playing
across from Chaz Powell.
Big No. 700
Celebrating his 700th game
on the Penn State coaching
staff, Paterno opened the day on
the sideline before returning to
the coaches booth at halftime.
The 84-year-old coach, who
debuted as an assistant for the
Lions in 1950, followed the
same routine as he did last week
against Eastern Michigan as he
continues to recover from his
preseason hip injury.
I felt really good to begin
with, but yknow its turf (at
Indianas Memorial Stadium)
and for some reason it was real-
ly tough on my leg, Paterno
said. I thought it would be
better off going upstairs and
playing it safe.
But Im getting better. I dont
use a cane or anything like that.
Sometimes I go overboard.
Milestones
Derek Moye continues to
move up the schools receiving
charts. He moved past O.J.
McDuffie for fifth place in all-
time receptions during the sec-
ond quarter and now has 129 for
his career.
The senior from Pittsburgh
had a career-high 158 yards in
the game, topping the century
mark for the sixth time.
His 74-yard touchdown catch
from Matt McGloin gives him18
on his career, good for fourth in
team history. The completion
was the longest career pass for
McGloin.
Silas Redd had a career-high
29 carries, finishing with 129
yards.
Travel list
The Lions also made the trip
without Lynn (head/neck), TB
Brandon Beachum (ankle), TB
Stephfon Green (disciplinary),
WR Curtis Drake (leg), WR Bill
Belton and former starting
kicker Evan Lewis.
Anthony Fera continues to
handle field goal duties and
went 3-for-4 on the day, hitting
from 22, 27 and 33 yards. He
missed a 52-yarder as time ex-
pired in the first half.
Five true freshmen -- Amos,
WR Allen Robinson, DE Deion
Barnes, OT Donovan Smith and
PK Sam Ficken -- were in Bloo-
mington and suited up.
Amos, Robinson and Ficken
have all played this season,
while Smith and Barnes still
have their redshirts intact.

LAS VEGAS Nick Wat-
ney shot a 7-under 64 on Sat-
urday for a share of the third-
round lead with Kevin Na in
the Justin Timberlake Shriners
Hospitals for Children Open.
Watney, a two-time winner
this year, birdied the final
three holes and five of the last
six at TPC Summlerin to
match Na at 17 under. Na
followed his second-round 63
with a 66.
Robert Garrigus (63) and
Kris Blanks (66) were a stroke
back, and Tommy Gainey
(64), Paul Goydos (66) and
Tim Herron (67) followed at
15 under.
Na, tied for the lead with
Jhonattan Vegas and Charlie
Wi after the second round,
played the front nine in 4
under with five birdies and a
bogey, and added a birdie on
the par-5 16th to reach 17
under.
Robert Garrigus had nine
birdies and a bogey in his 63.
Hospitalized for dehydration
on Monday in Phoenix, Garri-
gus opened the round with
four straight birdies, then
birdied three of the last four.
Vegas (69), Roland Thatch-
er (63), Spencer Levin (64),
Carl Pettersson (66) were 14
under.
The 36-hole cut came at
4-under 138, with 80 players
advancing. Because more than
78 players made the cut, there
was a secondary cut at 4-under
209 after the third round to
the low 70 players and ties.
The 4 under cut tied for the
lowest on the PGA Tour this
season with the Travelers
Championship, John Deere
Classic, Viking Classic and
The Barclays.
Fran Quinn was the only
player left on the course when
play was suspended due to
darkness Friday. He came back
Saturday morning and made a
14-foot birdie putt for a 67 to
make the cut.
Price, Perry, Huston
share lead
CARY, N.C. John Huston
shot a 6-under 66 on Saturday
for a share of the second-
round lead with Nick Price
and Kenny Perry in the Cham-
pions Tours SAS Champion-
ship.
Huston, the Dicks Sporting
Good Open winner this year,
played the last 10 holes in 6
under in windy conditions for
the best round of the day at
Prestonwood Country Club.
I was able to keep the ball
in play and manage the wind,
Huston said. It was kind of
hard, it was hard to get it
close. It was definitely a lot
harder today. The wind
seemed to keep changing
directions.
Blustering wind led to the
highest single-round average
in tournament history.
Price and Perry had 69s to
match Huston at 9 under.
You look at the guys who
are up there, and obviously
Kenny and John Huston are
both longer hitters than I am,
so Im going to be playing first
a lot (Sunday), Price said.
My approach shots, Im going
to be playing first most of the
day, I think.
Perry said he also struggled
a bit with the wind.
I got off to a great start,
birdied three of the first four,
so that kind of set the tone for
my day, Perry said. I hit a
couple wrong clubs in the
wind and hit a poor shot off
the 10th tee that caused bogey.
But all in all, Im very happy
with it. Im excited in good
shape for (Sunday).
Perry is looking for his first
win in two years and his first
on the Champions Tour. In
eight events on the over-50
tour this year, Perry has five
top-10 finishes.
Jeff Sluman (69) was 8
under, and defending cham-
pion Russ Cochran (71) was 7
under. First-round leader Co-
rey Pavin had a 74 to drop
four strokes back at 5 under.
Fred Couples (71) also was 5
under.

NEW YORK With a month
until theNBAseason, players and
owners dont sound much closer
toalabor deal thantheydidwhen
the lockout began.
Theyre so far apart on money
they decided to leave it alone Sat-
urday and focused mainly on the
salary cap.
They couldnt solve that one,
either.
I wouldnt say there was any
progress. What happened was,
they put some concepts up, we
put some concepts up, and were
still miles apart, unionexecutive
director Billy Hunter said.
Theres a huge bridge, gap, that I
dont know if were going to be
able to close it or not.
The sides will meet againMon-
day the day training camps
were to have begun though
time is getting short to save the
start of the regular season, sched-
uled for Nov. 1. Neither side
sounds optimistic.
In a seven-hour bargaining ses-
sion, their longest since the lock-
out began July 1, the sides talked
about one of the two major issues
that divides them. Owners want a
hard cap, or at least want a num-
ber of changes to the current soft
cap system, which the players
prefer to keep largely intact.
The sides didnt even attempt
to deal with the division of reve-
nues, the other big obstacle to a
labor agreement that would end
the lockout.
Commissioner David Stern
said he had nothing to announce
in terms of cancellations. But the
remainder of the preseason
schedule is in jeopardy some
games already have been can-
celed. Regular-season games
could now be threatened, too.
Our desire would be to not
cancel, and we had been hopeful
that this weekend would be a
broader marker, but for reasons
whichwe understand, the players
suggested that we resume on
Monday, and we said fine,
Stern said.
Sterndidindicatesomelevel of
progress, saying: Were not near
anything, but wherever that is,
were closer than we were be-
fore.
The sides will meet in small
groups, then bring large groups
back for another meeting Tues-
day.

MADISON, N.J. Wilkes con-
tinued to display its potent
ground game Saturday, amassing
more than 300 yards for a second
consecutive week in a 45-25 vic-
tory at FDU-Florham.
The Colonels piled up 395
yards on the ground just a week
after gaining 343 yards in a 35-27
victory over Widener.
Running back Zach Tivald ran
for a career-best 172 yards and
touchdowns of 1, 60 and 16 yards
for Wilkes (2-2, 2-0MAC). Hehad
87 yards in the first half on14 car-
ries, and 85 more yards on seven
second-half carries.
A21-7halftime leadfor the Col-
onels remained solid after Travis
Mullenkickeda 30-yardfieldgoal
for FDU-Florham (0-4, 0-2 MAC)
less than five minutes into the
thirdquarter. Wilkes AndrewRe-
gan returned the ensuing kickoff
85 yards for a score, making it 28-
10 and putting the game out of re-
ach.
Wilkes opened with a 12-play,
69-yard drive which was capped
by Alex Georges 6-yard TD pass
to Daniel Curry. George made it
14-0 with a 3-yard scoring run on
the Colonels next possession a
nine-play, 85-yard drive.
Tivald scored his first touch-
down of the game five minutes
later on a 1-yard run, staking
Wilkes to a 21-0 lead.
The teams combined for 1,200
all-purpose yards, and 893 yards
of total offense.
George was true with his pas-
ses throughout the game, com-
pleting 11 of his 15 attempts for
117 yards and one touchdown.
Todd Eagles caught six of those
balls for 74 yards.
Auxence Wogou (79 yards),
Tyler Berntsen (59) and George

CHESTER Kings made his-
tory Saturday at Widener.
Just not the kind it wanted to.
Widener scored early, often
and at will, dominating the Mon-
archs 70-0 in a MAC football
game.
The 70 points were the most
ever allowed by Kings in a game,
topping the 57 allowed last week
against Albright and in a 2009
game against Springfield. The
margin of defeat was also the
largest in school history.
Nine of the 10 scoring drives
for Widener were 2:30 or less.
Seven of the drives were at least
54 yards.
The Pride (4-1, 2-1MAC) limit-
ed Kings to 143 total yards, and
kept theMonarchs (1-3, 1-2MAC)
out of Widener territory on all
but three possessions. Kings
best possession reached the Wid-
ener 21inthe thirdquarter before
asackof quarterbackJoeKirchon
on third-and-3 pushed the Mon-
archs back. Theyalsoreachedthe
Widener 44 in the first half and
got tothe49inthefourthquarter.
The only drive past the Widen-
er 40 startedwithThe Pride kick-
ing off from its 15. Jay Torres re-
turned the kickoff 23 yards to the
Widener 47, and a 5-yard offside
penalty gave Kings its best field
position of the day to start the
possession.
Kirchon completed passes to
three receivers as the drive reac-
hed the 21.
Widener rolled to 658 yards of
offense and scored at least two
touchdowns in every quarter.
The Pride enjoyed a 32-9 advan-
tage in first downs.
Widener quarterback Chris

HOUSTON The Pittsburgh Steelers were
awful in their opener at Baltimore, blew out the
Seahawks and then slipped past the Colts last
week.
As quarterback Ben Roethlisberger put it:
Weve been all over the board.
That has some wondering which version of
the Steelers will show up for todays game
against the Houston Texans.
Roethlisberger, though, doesnt believe his
teams inconsistent start is rea-
son for alarm.
Its not panic, he said.
Were not panicked. I think
you guys and the media and
people and fans try and panic
for us and thats fine. Were a
veteran enough group that we
dont do that and we just talk
about what we need to do and
get it done.
New Orleans rallied to beat
Houston 40-33 last week. Now
the Texans are focused on mak-
ing sure they dont repeat last
years letdown when they
opened 2-0, but won just four
games the rest of the season.
The one thing about this
game, bad things are going to happen. Its just
how you respond to it, Houstons Andre John-
son said. Of course, you want to go out and try
to win every game. Thats everybodys goal, but
thats hard to do ... win or lose, were going to
come back and approach the next game with the
same intensity and prepare the same and try to
get better as a football team.
The biggest issue for the Steelers this week is
a banged up offensive line that allowed Roethlis-
berger to be sacked three times last week, lead-
ing to two fumbles. Left tackle Jonathan Scott is
still struggling with a left ankle injury and has
missed practice this week.
Steelers coach Mike Tomlin isnt overly con-
cerned with the number of hits Roethlisberger
has taken so far. Still, hed like to see what his
team could do with a healthy offensive line.
The quarterback seemed a bit more worried
about the injuries.
Youre always concerned when you lose guys
up front, Roethlisberger said. You like to get
some cohesiveness up there. It seems like our
team, we always lose linemen. It doesnt seem
like anyone else loses linemen like we do. Im
not sure why. Ive got confidence in those guys
that theyll be able to bounce back and whoever
fills will do a great job.
Scott or backup Trai Essex will face the unen-
viable task of holding off Mario Williams, who
has excelled in his new position at outside line-
backer in Wade Phillips 3-4 defense.
Roethlisberger let out a nervous chuckle be-
fore answering when asked what hes seen of the
Williams since he moved from defensive end.
(Hes) a little different than the outside line-
backers I see every day, Roethlisberger said.
(Hes) just a freak; one of the, if not the best.
Itll be a great challenge for our tackles ... this
guys just an absolute beast.
Houston spent the early part of the week try-
ing to figure out howto take better advantage of
its red zone opportunities. The Texans made
seven trips inside the 20-yard line against the
Saints and scored touchdowns on three of them.
The offense met Monday to watch every play
in the red zone from the first three games.

is seeking

to downplay his return.
I just realized from the start of the
season that Im a 49er and this is just
going to be another game, Akers said.
Obviously, Im going to where my
house is and my family is and all that.
Spending 12 years there, you just cant
erase that. But its another game as of
right now. Put the emotions away and
realize that Im no longer going to be
on the sidelines where the Eagles are.
Akers didnt choose to leave Phila-
delphia. The Eagles decided to go in
another direction, even though Akers
had perhaps his best season last year
and made the Pro Bowl for the second
straight year. After designating Akers
as a transition player a move that
was voided by the newCBAthe Ea-
gles drafted kicker Alex Henery in the
fourth round.
That signaled the end of Akers ca-
PHILADELPHIA David Akers
left his heart in Philadelphia when he
went to San Francisco.
The five-time Pro Bowl kicker is
coming home today when the 49ers
(2-1) visit the Eagles (1-2). Akers re-
turn to Philadelphia hasnt received
the headlines Donovan McNabb and
Brian Dawkins got when they came
back. But this will be a special home-
coming nonetheless.
Philadelphia has been a huge bless-
ing in my life, Akers said. I just cant
say enough for the organization, for
the way they gave me the opportunity
to make it in the NFL when so many
other teams didnt.
Akers was so thankful that he put up
a billboard on I-95 near Lincoln Finan-
cial Field that read: Thanks Philly for
blessing me for 12 years and for your
support on and off the field!
The green-and-white billboard
above the backdrop of a football field
hung for a month during the presea-
son.
I cant thank those fans enough, he
said.
Still, Akers, whose wife andchildren
remain living in New Jersey, is trying
reer inPhilly. He finisheduphis12 sea-
sons here as the best kicker in team
history and one of the NFLs all-time
greatest.
Akers holds the franchise record for
points, field goals, extra points, games
played in the regular season and in the
playoffs. He was selected to the NFLs
All-Decade team for the 2000s, and
Morten Andersen (seven) and Jan Ste-
nerud(six) are the only kickers whove
made more Pro Bowls.
Unfortunately, its part of this
game, Eagles coachAndyReidsaid. I
have the highest regards for David Ak-
ers. Youre talking about the greatest
kicker in Eagles history; really, I mean
I think thats probably a slam dunk.
And the guy, hes a great person and he
did a tremendous amount in the com-
munity and Imsure hell be welcomed
back with open arms. When youre to-
gether for 12 years like he and I were,
then you develop a relationship there
and I hold he and his wife and his fam-
ily in the highest regards.
The 49ers are thrilled to have him.
The 36-year-old Akers has made all
seven of his extra points and all seven
field goals, including long ones from
55 and 53 yards. He also has been a
positive influence on his teammates.

GLENDALE, Ariz. The NFC
East seems to always have its way
with the NFC West.
The New York Giants already
have one victory over St. Louis
in the divisional matchup.
They go for No. 2 when they
travel toArizona tofacetheincon-
sistent Cardinals today.
The East is 4-0 against the West
through three weeks of the sea-
son, and the Giants (2-1) bring
momentum into todays game af-
ter knocking off Philadelphia 29-
16 last weekend.
Coach TomCoughlin said beat-
ingtheEagles didboost his teams
confidence.
It was a tremendous game, he
said, in terms of the physical na-
ture of the game. So it did help,
without a doubt.
The game in Arizona is the first
of two straight for New York
against an NFC West foe. The Gi-
ants are home against Seattle Oct.
9.
Cardinals coach Ken Whisen-
hunt said its good for his division
to be facing the tough teams from
the East.
The NFC East is certainly a
physical division and they play
good football, Whisenhunt said.
They have a lot of good teams,
and the Giants have done very
well in that division for a number
of years. Its going to ultimately
makeusabetter football team. We
are going against good players,
tough competition, and if our
guys can continue to match up
and improve and get better, and
we can win some of these games,
its going to make our teamstron-
ger.
Arizona(1-2) has cometheclos-
est of any of the NFC West teams
against the East, losing at Wash-
ington 22-21, but that was fol-
lowed by a13-10 pratfall at Seattle
last weekend.
Therewerealot of mistakesby
myself andtherest of theoffense,
quarterback Kevin Kolb.
We have to clean things up.
The defense played a great game
andnowweneedtoput thewhole
thingtogether andbothsides play
well, along with special teams,
and go get after the Giants.
The Cardinals had two good of-
fensive games, but shaky defen-
sive performances, followed by a
strongdefensive showingandbad
outing by the offense.
Arizona has changed its defen-
sive scheme under new coordina-
tor Ray Horton.
It is early but its time to start
trying to click on all cylinders,
defensive tackle Darnell Dockett
said.

could barely see the return tosses from
catcher JonathanLucroy, losingthemin
the bright light filtering through the
windows at Miller Park.
Imagine how the Diamondbacks felt.
Gallardo emerged from the shadows,
outpitching Arizona ace Ian Kennedy as
the Milwaukee Brewers kept winning at
home with a 4-1victory in their NL divi-
sion series opener on Saturday.
It was tough for me seeing the ball
coming back, just having the sun there
inthebackground. I was just hopingLuc
didnt throw one at my face, Gallardo,
who knew the shadows would play a
role late. When you have the lead, for
myself, I was just going to keep going
out and be aggressive knowing little
things like that.
Prince Fielder chasedKennedy witha
two-out, two-run homer in the seventh
inning, helping erase the stigma that
the big sluggers playoffs would be any-
thing like 2008, when he went 1 for 14.
Same, too, with Gallardo.
The right-hander retired 14 of 15 dur-
ing one stretch, perhaps helped by how
the shadows cut across the infield. With
an early start time, the sun peeked
through the retractable roof all after-
noon, creating a crazy, changing pat-
tern.
Ive played here almost two years
now, soIve kindof gottenusedtoit. But
I can imagine some of the guys on the
other team, and the umpires, too, hav-
ing problems with it, Lucroy said. Its
tough. Its hitting different. Dark, light,
dark coming down through the strike
zone. Its tough to see sometimes.
Gallardo gave up one run and four
hits over eight innings and matched a
postseason franchise record with nine
strikeouts.
Gallardo was only nicked by Ryan Ro-
berts home run in the eighth, and won
in his first postseason start since a
Game 1 loss in the 2008 NLDS to Phila-
delphia. An All-Star in 2010, he went 17-
10 this season, yet is rarely mentioned
among the elite pitchers in the game.
Hes even overshadowed so to
speak on his own staff by 2009 ALCy
Young winner Zack Greinke.
Hes been great his whole career, but
I think if you look at the last month, hes
really taken a step forward, Brewers
star Ryan Braun said. Hes been dom-
inant. I think hes thrown the ball better
the last month than Ive seen and Ive
seen himsince we were in Aball togeth-
er. Ive gottentosee himthrowa lot, and
hes really takena step forwardandI put
himup there with any other ace in base-
ball.
Game 2 is Sunday. Greinke will start
for Milwaukee against Daniel Hudson.
Jerry Hairston Jr., playing in place of
starter Casey McGehee, put the Brew-
ers ahead for good in the fourth with a
sacrifice fly set up by Fielders double.
Braun, who fell just short of the NL
battingtitle, contributedthree hits. The
All-Star left fielder also threwout a run-
ner at the plate in the first inning as Mil-
waukees shaky defense was suddenly
solid.
John Axford pitched a perfect ninth
for his first save after converting his last
43 in a row in the regular season. The
Brewers started 1-0 at Miller Park after
winning a major-league best 57 times at
homeduringtheir runtotheNLCentral
title.
Gallardo was at his best over his final
three starts and reached more than 200
strikeouts for the second straight sea-
son.
He never made a mark in the postsea-
son in 2008 because he need surgery
and missed almost five months after
tearing a ligament in his right knee.
Gallardo got out of a first-inning jam
thanks to Brauns throw, then cruised
until Willie Bloomquist singled in the
sixth. Hairston ended that inning when
he scooped up a weak grounder to third
base by Justin Upton and threwhimout
as he tried sliding into first.
In the seventh, Lyle Overbay drove a
ball to deep center field where Nyjer
Morgan gathered it at the warning track
beforeslammingintothewall toendthe
inning.
Fielder hit his second postseason
home run in the seventh after Braun
doubled, making it 4-0. Fielder finished
2 for 4, already topping his 08 disap-
pointment.
In08, inmy mind, it was a one-game
playoff every day. I felt if we lost, the se-
ries was over every time, today I was
just, like I said, enjoy it. Weve got a five-
game series, Fielder said.
The Diamondbacks decided not to
walk Fielder, who had 38 homers and
120 RBIs in the regular season.
Im not going to do that, Kennedy
said. I just hung that curveball.

Milwaukee Brewers Prince Fielder is congratulated in the dugout after hitting a two-run home run during the seventh inning of Game 1 of the National League
division series against the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday in Milwaukee.
Brewers cast shadow with opening win
By COLIN FLY
AP Sports Writer
Milwaukee Brewers catcher Jonathan Lucroy tags out Arizona Diamondbacks
Willie Bloomquist at home during the first inning of Game 1 of the NLDS.
ARLINGTON, Texas With Texas
Rangers fans chanting his name, Mike
Napoli kept fouling off pitches until
getting the big hit after James Shields
had hit two batters.
Then Tampa Bays starter really got
wild.
After Napolis two-run single, Shields
threw a pair of wild pitches to the
same batter. One of the balls in the dirt
sent home the tiebreaking run in a
five-run fourth inning for the Rangers
in an 8-6 win Saturday night that
evened the AL division series at a
game apiece.
The defending American League
champion Rangers were finally on the
board in the game and in the series
after being held to two hits in the open-
er by 22-year-old rookie left-hander
Matt Moore and two 20-something
relievers in Tampa Bays first-ever post-
season shutout.
This time, the home team finally
won a postseason game between the
Rangers and Rays.
Game 3 in the best-of-five series is
Monday in Tampa. Colby Lewis pitches
for the Rangers against David Price.
Texas was trailing 3-0 when Elvis
Andrus was hit by a breaking pitch
leading off the fourth. Josh Hamilton
then singled between the shortstop
and the second baseman, both posi-
tioned on the right side of the infield
against the slugger. Michael Youngs
sharp single to left loaded the bases.
The Rangers then got their first run
of the series when Shields hit Adrian
Beltre with a fastball near his left knee,
forcing in a run.
When Shields threw three consec-
utive balls to Napoli, the chants of
Nap-o-li!, Nap-o-li! began and only
grew louder with each swing. Napoli
swung and missed at two pitches, then
fouled off three consecutive before
ripping a liner to left that tied the
game at 3.
Manager Ron Washington pumped
both fists with a shout, team president
Nolan Ryan clapped in the front row
nearby and those chants turned to
earsplitting cheers from a towel-waving
crowd of 51,351.
Nelson Cruz struck out and David
Murphy fell behind 0-2. What followed
were a couple of foul balls and the wild
pitch that allowed Beltre and Napoli to
move up a base as Murphy worked to a
full count. Then came a pitch that
Murphy swung and missed, but the
ball hit in the dirt and ricocheted away
from catcher Kelly Shoppach, allowing
Beltre to score. Napoli came home on
Mitch Morelands grounder.
Napoli and Cruz had consecutive
singles to start the sixth and chase
Shields. Kinsler sent both of them
home with a double to make it 7-3.
Moreland added a towering one-out
homer in the eighth for the Rangers,
their first long ball of the postseason
and his first at home since June 21.

Singles by Jimmy Rollins and
Hunter Pence in the bottom of
the fifth inning got them revved
up. Then Howard rocked the
place, blasting a 3-2 pitch deep
over the right field wall for a
three-run homer and 4-3 Phila-
delphia lead.
Howard and the Phillies were
just getting started.
Victorino ripped a single to
center field, then Ibanez rocket-
ed a two-run homer to right.
The Phillies padded their ad-
vantage with three more runs in
the seventh inning, an uprising
started when Halladay beat out
an infield single.
Base hits by Rollins and Utley
filled the bases with nobody out,
and Howard delivered his fourth
RBI of the night by lacing a sacri-
fice fly to right field. Victorino
and Ibanez followed with run-
scoring singles for a 9-3 Phillies
lead.
Hunter Pence added a two-run
single in the eighth -- after Ut-
leys second double of the game -
as the Phillies let loose with 12
hits and 10 runs over their final
three at-bats to take complete
command.
After a shaky beginning, Halla-
day regained the control that led
him to a 19-6 record with a 2.35
ERA this season.
He was touched for a single by
Rafael Furcal to open the game
and issued a one-out walk to Al-
bert Pujols in the first inning.
Then Berkman launched a
bomb, jolting a three-run homer
to right that sent Halladay into a
rage.
"He was kind of like a Rocky
movie. He got mad after he gave
up the homer," Phillies manager
Charlie Manuel said. "Ticked
him off."
"Yeah, I was upset," Halladay
said. "You have your moment of
frustration and youve got to
move on."
The Cardinals appeared pre-
pared to move Halladay out of
the way when Skip Schumakers
hard single opened the Cardinals
second inning.
Then the Phillies righthander
started mowing them down.
He got help fromHoward, who
made a diving play at first base
on a hard grounder by John Jay
to prevent more danger.
Then Halladay became as
masterful as he was when he
pitched a no-hitter for the Phil-
lies against the Cincinnati Reds
on the first day of the 2010
NLDS.
Halladay cooly set down the
seven consecutive innings
worth of Cardinals, striking out
eight Cardinals along the way
before departing with an 11-3
lead after the eighth inning. No
ball left the infield during that
stretch.
"Couldnt think of a worse
start, really, putting your teamin
a hole like that," Halladay said of
the early homer he surrendered.
"But you get to this point, youre
not going to pack it in."
The Cardinals didnt quit, ei-
ther.
They tagged Phillies reliever
Michael Stutes for three runs in
the top of the ninth, using Schu-
makers two-run double off clos-
er Ryan Madson to pull within
five runs. But Madson finished
the job with two game-ending
strikeouts, giving the Phillies a
fast series lead.
"You have to protect home-
field advantage," Howard said
ASSOCIATED PRESS
St. Louis Cardinals catcher Yadier Molina cant make the tag as Philadelphia Phillies Chase Utley is safe at home on an RBI single by
Shane Victorino in the eighth inning of Game 1 of the National League division series Saturday in Philadelphia.
PHILS
He didnt hit any homers
in the playoffs last year.
And when the Phillies fil-
led the bases with a chance
to send the 2010 National
League championship series
to a Game 7, the hulking
6-foot-4, 242-pound Howard
stood there sulking with the
bat on his shoulders and
watched strike three end the
Phillies season.
You know what, I knew
coming into this year that
people were probably going
to say whatever, Howard
said. But I left last year in
the past.
This is a completely new
year.
He had the same, big, old
numbers in the regular sea-
son.
Howards 33 home runs
and 116 RBI in 2011 gave him
six straight seasons of 30 or
more homers and 100 or
more RBI, which extended
his team record by another
year. He also delivered some
big hits in the clutch, leading
the National League with 38
go-ahead RBI and 23 game-
winning RBI this season.
But everyone was waiting
to see what Howard would
do this postseason.
What the cleanup hitter for
the Phillies did at Citizens
Bank Park in the sixth inning
Saturday was give Philadel-
phia big hope that things will
be different this time. All it
took was one big blow.
That was huge, said Phil-
lies Game 1 winner Roy Hal-
laday, who surrendered a
three-run homer before retir-
ing the final 21 batters he
faced in an 11-6 victory.
Youre down two (runs), its
starting to get late in the
game. One swing of the bat,
youre up.
Only Howard wasnt done
swinging.
He drilled a sacrifice fly to
start the scoring in a three-
run seventh inning that broke
the game open for the Phil-
lies, and almost took that
pitch out of the park for a
grand slam.
But the most impressive
part about both his RBI at-
bats wasnt the end result,
but the way Howard accom-
plished it.
He fouled off a couple
tough changeups from Cardi-
nals starting pitcher Kyle
Lohse -- who wasnt giving
the Phillies anything through
most of the first five innings
-- to get to a 3-and-2 count.
Howard also battled off some
nasty fastballs from hard-
throwing St. Louis reliever
Mitchell Boggs before driving
his sacrifice fly in the sev-
enth.
I felt like Ryan Howards
at-bats were similar to when
hes hitting the ball real
good, Phillies manager Char-
lie Manuel said.
Especially when Howard is
giving the Phillies the lead
by sending a ball over the
wall.
Howards home run was
big, Manuel said.
As big as the expectations
of the Phillies to win the
World Series. As big as the
doubts about him, being
knocked off his back and
straight out of the park.

leading contenders for AL
MVP and he showed
why. Yankees manager Joe
Girardi moved the slugger
up fromfifth to third in the
lineup for the playoffs to
get him more protection
and pitches to hit.
Good move.
Cano added a run-scor-
ing double in the eighth to
tie a club record for RBIs in
a postseason game. His
seventh career postseason
homer was the11th slamin
Yankees postseason histo-
ry and the first since Ricky
Ledee connected in the 1999

against Boston.
I wasnt looking for a
home run, just looking for a
pitch I can make good con-
tact and at least get one
RBI, Cano said.
It ended up being a grand
slam.
YANKS
NEW YORK In just
over an hour at Belmont
Park, the Breeders Cup
Classic likely came away
with its three favorites. Take
your pick Havre de
Grace, Uncle Mo or Flat
Out.
Each staked a claimas the
horse to beat in the $5 mil-
lion Classic at Churchill
Downs on Nov. 5 with stir-
ring victories on a Super
Saturday of racing over a
muddy track.
Were going to be there
and try them, elated 70-
year-old trainer Scooter
Dickey said after Flat Out
won the $750,000 Jockey
Club Gold Cup by 2
1
4
lengths over 2010 Belmont
Stakes winner Drossel-
meyer, with Travers winner
Stay Thirsty third. This is
tremendous, Its hard to
fathom, but I like it.
In the previous race, the
4-year-old filly Havre de
Grace left four rivals in the
slop with an 8
1
4-length romp
in the $350,000 Beldame
Stakes to remain a leading
contender for Horse of the
Year.
She has the speed to
match up with them, train-
er Larry Jones said of Havre
de Grace, who beat the boys
Flat Out included in
the Woodward at Saratoga
on Sept. 3. Im sure well
see Uncle Mo in there, too.
Yes we will.

DOVER, Del. Tony Stewart
needs a tremendous rallyat Dover
to keep his perfect Chase season
alive.
Stewarts No. 14 Chevrolet has
not performed like the car that
rompedtovictoriesinthefirst two
races in the Chase for the Sprint
Cup championship. He was horri-
ble at practice and that carried
over into Saturdays qualifying,
where he turned a lap of 156.760
mphandwill start the thirdChase
race 27 spots behind polesitter
Martin Truex Jr.
Stewarts two wins have only
given him a seven-point cushion
over Kevin Harvick entering to-
daysrace. Withfour Chasedrivers
starting in the top six at the con-
crete mile, this could be the race
where the standings get rattled.
Stewart had little explanation
forhisstruggles, otherthansaying
his car was tight.
History
shows all is not
lost for Smoke.
He started 27th
in the second
Dover race in
2000 and won.
In the first
Dover race in
2009, he finished second after
starting 31st. If any driver knows
howto work his way through traf-
fic, its Stewart.
HecouldrunintoTruexleading
the way.
Truex returned to the site of his
only career Cup win and turned a
lapof 159.004 mphtowinthe pole
at Dover International Speedway.
He crashed the Chase party with
his first poleof theseason. Hewon
his only career Cuprace in2007at
the Monster Mile.
I love this place, Truexsaid. I
feel like I understandwhat it takes
to get around this place. Ive just
been fortunate enough to have
good race cars here.
Truex, of nearby Mayetta, N.J.,
has long considered Dover his
home track. Truex, 18th in the
points standings, has twoof his six
career poles at Dover.
Chase driver Kurt Busch was
second. Paul Menard was third.
Chase drivers Carl Edwards, Kyle
Busch and Jimmie Johnson took
the next three spots.
Like Stewart, four-time Cup
champion Jeff Gordon also strug-
gled during qualifying and starts
34th.
Denny Hamlin, all but out of
contention, starts11th. BradKese-
lowski was 15th, Matt Kenseth
18th, Ryan Newman 20th, Dale
Earnhardt Jr. 21st, and Harvick
starts 22nd.
Round 3 of the Chase promises
to create some separation among
the Chase contenders and the pre-
tenders.
Gordon is in fifth place and a
manageable 23 points behind
Stewart. His poor start might not
help himmove up the standings.
Kurt Busch is 28 points out in
ninth place. Hes counting on his
strongqualifyingstart toserveasa
preview for whats ahead in the
400-mile race.
Wedefinitelylookat wherethe
Chase guys qualify, Busch said.
You race your own race and let it
pan out. You cant worry too early
on in the race. Once you get to the
final two pits stops, thats when
youre looking at the other Chase
guys.
Truex hopes the Chase drivers
are inhis rearviewmirror over the
final laps, givinghimsomethingto
feel good about in a mostly lost
season. Truex, who has only eight
top-10s this year, hasnt built off
the promise he showed in 2007
when he won a race, posted 14
top-10s and made the Chase.
He hasnt finished better than
15thinthe standings the last three
years.
But if can take the checkered
flag for Michael Waltrip Racing at
any race this season, Truex is at
the right track.

Edwards wins Nationwide race
DOVER, Del. Carl Edwards dominated again at Dover
International Speedway, winning his seventh race of the season in
the Nationwide Series.
Edwards celebrated Saturday with his traditional back flip, then
jumped into the stands to celebrate with fans.
Edwards said before the race his Sprint Cup car was better than
the No. 60 in the second-tier series. He could use another win to
strengthen his push toward his first career Cup championship.

T
he hand-blown panes of glass in
the milk house window were
smudged with decades of dirt.
Flecks of white paint clung to the wood
surrounding the panes, and each one
contained the imperfections common
with blown glass - the way it was made
more than 100 years ago.
Attached to the milk house is an old
dairy barn, small by todays standards
but still standing strong and true. The
wooden stanchions inside - 12 in all --
no longer hold dairy cows. Its probably
been 50 years since livestock of any
kind stood inside the barn.
But while the barn and its milk
house are abandoned and forgotten, the
structure does offer something that
often goes overlooked by todays fast-
paced society that seldom slows down
to appreciate it.
A view.
I noticed it years ago while hunting
rabbits in the grown up fields surround-
ing the barn. Rain began falling and I
sought refuge inside the milk house.
Standing on the concrete floor, the
structure was bare and empty. Against
one wall was a concrete-lined ditch
that used to hold full milk cans. A
spring that had since dried up used to
provide a flow of cold water through
the ditch to keep the milk cans cool.
On another wall was the window,
four panes in all, and it provided a view
like no other.
I wiped the dirt off one of the panes
until I could see the narrow dirt road in
front of the barn. On the other side was
a small valley with a large pond at its
base. Fields climbed the mountain
above the valley, and stands of enor-
mous evergreens and oaks guarded the
top. Beneath the trees, I could make
out a pattern of stone walls that criss-
crossed the mountainside, culminating
at a perfect square of large, chiseled
stones that served as the foundation for
another barn that vanished from the
landscape decades ago.
No doubt the view that I so appre-
ciated was much different to the farmer
that stood in this very milk house long
ago. Back then the fields flanking the
mountainside were green, dotted with
cows and lined with crops. And the
stone foundation held a barn probably
much like this one.
I spent a lot of time on the mountain
that I now viewed from the milk house
window. The shady forest floor be-
neath the evergreens was a haven for
grouse and turkeys. At the very top I
once sat at the base of an enormous
red oak and watched quietly as a de-
cent-sized black bear passed nearby. In
the grown-up fields my father and I,
along with our beagle, Randy, spent
many winter days chasing rabbits.
Its been some time since I stopped
at the milk house to enjoy the view
again. Recently, however, I had the
opportunity to travel the dirt road that
meanders in front of the barn and I
took time to soak in the view from the
milk house window.
And this time it had changed again.
The fields along the mountainside
were split by a wide road made of
coarse, jagged stone. It led to the top,
but the stands of enormous evergreens
and oaks were no more.
The top of the mountain had been
clear-cut to make way for a Marcellus
shale well pad, as indicated by a white
sign placed at the entrance of the road.
Large trucks hauling equipment used
the road to access the once-quiet
mountaintop, and the recently-cut had
fallen in a zig-zag pattern, smothering
the stone walls and old barn founda-
tion.
Perhaps one day trees will grow
again at the top of the mountain and
the solitude will return. But for now,
the mountain as I knew it is gone, and
so is the view from the milk house
window.

Reduced pheasant stocking
Due to extensive damage from flood-
ing on two game farms, the Pennsylva-
nia Game Commission was forced to
significantly reduce its pheasant stock-
ings this year.
Prior to the flooding, the agency
planned to release 104,000 pheasants
on public lands for the upcoming small
game season. Because flood waters
destroyed holding fields at the Loyal-
sock and Northcentral farms in Lycom-
ing County resulting in an initial loss
of 40,000 birds -- the Game Commis-
sion will reduce this seasons statewide
allocation by 30 percent, or 73,390
pheasants. Also, no stocking will take
place for the late small game season
(Dec. 26 to Feb. 4).
Pheasant season opens Oct. 22 and
pre-season stockings will begin on Oct.
19, followed by the first and second
in-season stockings on Oct. 27 or 28,
and Nov. 3 and 4 around the state.
The PGC said it still plans to in-
crease its production goal to 200,000
pheasants for the 2012-13 license year.
PFDs mandatory
Beginning Nov. 1, 2012, boaters will
be required to wear life jackets on any
boat less than 16 feet in length, in-
cluding canoes and kayaks, during the
cold weather months.
life jackets as well.
Gavlick said there are models of life
jackets available that dont restrict
movement and wont interfere with
being able to hunt or fish.
One statistic we were given on
these coldwater accidents in regards to
hunters is there were two instances
where the boat was anchored and the
hunting dogs went to jump out and
capsized the boat, Gavlick said.
Theres really no excuse not to wear
a life jacket during the cold water peri-
od.
New boat launch
Gavlick said the first phase of the
Shickshinny boat launch construction
project land acquisition -- is complet-
ed, and work on the launch, parking lot
and access road should begin soon.
The grant to perform the construc-
tion has been approved by the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife Service, Gavlick said.
The work consists of a new single-
lane boat launch on the river at Crary
Park, which will either be concrete or
paved. A gravel access road and park-
ing lot will also be installed.
The boat launch will provide another
access point to the river in a stretch
that is popular with anglers along with
canoes and kayaks. The nearest launch-
es right now are in Hunlock Creek to
the north and Berwick to the south.
The change was approved by the
Pennsylvania Fish and Boat Commis-
sion board during its quarterly meeting
last week. It applies to the period from
Nov. 1 to April 30, and the change is
intended to protect boaters from the
dangers of coldwater shock if they fall
into the water.
While boating accidents are more
frequent during the traditional sum-
mer season, the risk of an accident
being fatal is significantly higher when
the air and water temperatures are
colder in late fall through spring, said
Laurel Anders, director of the Bureau
of Boating and Access. Over the last
15 years, cold-water incidents repre-
sented only eight percent of boating-
related accidents, but resulted in 24
percent of the fatalities.
PFBC commissioner Norm Gavlick,
Kingston, voted for the measure and
said he supported it from the early
stages.
An avid boater himself, Gavlick said
he has experienced a few close calls
with cold water.
When youre drifting in the river
and you hit something, you can lose
your balance in a split second, Gavlick
said. Ive seen how easy it can hap-
pen.
The new law isnt limited to just
anglers. Recreational boaters and wa-
terfowl hunters will also have to don

Each time Don Kapral tried to take a bite
of his apple turnover, he was interrupted.
Perched atop the cliffs at Council Cup,
Kapral was on the lookout for migrating
raptors Friday.
A gusty wind and cloudy sky made for
perfect conditions to spot the soaring birds,
but left little time to eat.
There was a flurry as soon as I got here,
Kapral said. Its really hopping today.
Like miniature airplanes soaring through
the sky, a variety of raptors quietly appeared
over the tree line and sailed high above the
cliff. American kestrels, Coopers hawks,
bald eagles, broad-winged hawks, sharp-
shinned hawks, turkey vultures and even
Monarch butterflies all sailed overhead
throughout the day.
Kapral said he spends about 125 hours
each fall at Council Cup, counting the mi-
grating raptors. His results are listed on
www.hawkcount.org.
This is my sixth year doing this and you
can really see some trends -- increases and
decreases in some species, Kapral said.
When the conditions are right here, this
place can rival Hawk Mountain on some
days.
Its somewhat of a mystery what makes
thousands of raptors and vultures fly past
Council Cup each fall as they migrate south
for the winter.
Is it instinct that tells the birds its time to
leave? Could it be the changing weather as
summer transitions into fall? Or a lack of
food as conditions turn colder?
Whatever the reason, the fall migration
past Council Cup and other areas in Penn-
sylvania provides a stunning, unique display.
When conditions are right, you can see
over 1,000 hawks in one day from here, said
naturalist Rick Koval as he perched on the
rocky overlook at Council Cup. We get
some impressive numbers here.
Kovals best day? That was in 2000, when
he counted more than1,200 hawks, includ-
ing roughly 1,000 broad-winged, along with
several sharp-shinned hawks, American
kestrals, osprey and bald eagles.
The type and number of raptors that can
be spotted from Council Cup is dictated by
several factors. Time of year is important,
Koval said, as the migration season typically
begins in late September and concludes in
early November. There is also a two-week
window in September where the majority of
broad-winged hawks flying down from Cana-
da will pass through the area.
Other factors influencing raptor sightings
are time of day and weather. Mid-morning
to mid-afternoon is the best period, Koval
said, and cloudy, windy days are most pro-
ductive.
Hawks like to take advantage of the
prevailing winds, he said. But you need to
dress for the weather. When you get on top
of a cliff and have those gusts, it can get
pretty cold.
Utilizing prevailing winds are only one
method that migrating raptors use to con-
serve energy for the long trek south. Riding
thermal currents is the other.
A thermal current is a pocket of warm,
rising air. When a hawks flies into one, it is
actually lifted to a high elevation before it
breaks from the thermal and glides effort-
lessly for miles until it reaches another.
Considering that many species are head-
ing to wintering areas in the southeastern
U.S. and South America, energy conserva-
tion is crucial to survive the journey.
Migration can be taxing, Koval said.
Theyre hungry along the way and the
conditions are extra windy at those eleva-
tions. It takes a toll.

Nick Johnson didnt lose any
sleep worrying if he would be
claimed off waivers before last
Thursdays deadline.
He spent the morning in his
Pittsburgh hotel room, where he
took a nap before making the
planned drive back to Wilkes-
Barre.
I wasnt expecting anything. I
spoke to my agent and the chanc-
es I would be claimed were zero,
said Johnson, a right wing. I put
it totally out of my mind.
And then his phone rang.
All of a sudden, Johnsons
planned trip to Wilkes-Barre was
diverted to Minnesota to join the
Wilds NHL camp.
Just one day after Pittsburgh
decidedJohnson, 25, shouldstart
the season in the AHL, he was
getting a second NHL shot.
Andthis one looks pretty good.
I have a great opportunity and
Im definitely excited, Johnson
said. They (Minnesota) want
me to play a third line game.
Johnson was Pittsburghs third
round pick in 2004 and joined
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton at the
end of the 2007-08 season. He
went on play three seasons with
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, evolving
into a 20-goal scorer and a power
forward. Along the way Johnson
had two brief stops in Pittsburgh,
posting two goals and five points
in 10 games.
I know they (Pittsburgh)
though I could play in the NHL
and do well, Johnson said. But
they have a lot of veteran guys
who are proven and embedded in
the locker room. To take one out
is a pretty tall task.
In Minnesota, Johnsons NHL
prospects arebright. Hecomes to
anorganizationledbytwopeople
headcoachMike Yeoandgener-
al manager Chuck Fletcher, who
have roots in the Pittsburgh orga-
nization.
And the team itself, Johnson
said, has many of the same ele-
ments of play as the Penguins.
The mentality is similar. Its a
very detail-oriented game. Con-
stant skating and making it hard
for teams to play in your own
end, he said. But I came here
with the mentality that I still
have to make this team. I still
have to work hard.
If Johnson did start the season
in Wilkes-Barre, he wouldve be-
come the longest tenuredWilkes-
Barre/Scranton Penguin this
year. He looks back to his years in
Wilkes-Barre fondly and said his
time there helped to develop his
game.
I had a blast playing at the are-
na and I really enjoyed my team-
mates and the fans, Johnson
said. The city really supports
the team and I had a blast. I was
happy to be a part of Wilkes-
Barre.

HERSHEY The last time
goaltender Scott Munroe
played an entire hockey game
was Feb. 18 in the Kontinental
Hockey League in Russia.
Since then, Munroe played
only one period in the presea-
son stopping all six shots he
faced during Pittsburghs sec-
ond preseason game against
Chicago.
That was on Sept. 22 nine
days ago, so its understanda-
ble that Munroe was thankful
to play a full 60 minutes dur-
ing the Wilkes-Barre/Scran-
ton Penguins 2-1 win over the
Hershey Bears on Saturday.
Its been a while and it was
nice to get a full one in and get
the legs under me, Munroe
said. I welcome the work.
Munroe anchored a Pen-
guins lineup that featured few
regulars and stopped 34 of the
35 shots he faced. He was also
pivotal in the Penguins being
able to kill off all seven Her-
shey power plays they faced
on the night. The feat was
even more significant consid-
ering the Bears dressed sever-
al of their top players, includ-
ing Keith Aucoin and Graham
Mink.
Last night at our place,
they didnt have too many of
their big guys in, Munroe
said. I expected theyd have a
few in the lineup tonight.
After allowing an early goal
to Hershey in the first two
minutes of the game, Munroe
was stellar the rest of the way.
During a second period that
featured several Hershey pow-
er plays, Munroe came up big
to keep the Bears off the
board, including a save on Au-
coin who was alone in the slot.
In the third period, Munroe
stifled the Bears offense
again, including several key
saves to protect a one-goal
lead during a Hershey power
play in the last two minutes of
the game.
Not a bad start for a veteran
AHL goaltender who hasnt
played a full game in months,
starting behind a lineup of
new faces.
Its always a challenge
when you have new faces and
guys learning the system. You
can see it out there the pas-
ses arent quite there yet,
Munroe said. You come to ex-
pect that. Its just time to iron
out the kinks and see who
wants to play and step up.
Head coach John Hynes said
Munroe was brought in be-
cause of his maturity and AHL
credentials 184 games in five
seasons. Although last sea-
sons AHL Goaltender of the
Year Brad Thiessen is the ob-
vious starter in net for the
Penguins, Hynes said Munroe
will get the chance to compete
for ice time, much like Thies-
sen and John Curry did last
season.
Were really looking for an-
other competitive situation,
Hynes said. Right now, both
guys are competing for min-
utes and they both have
played well.
NOTES
The Penguins are now 2-1
in the preseason after sweep-
ing a two-game set against
Hershey. The final exhibition
game is tonight at the Mohe-
gan Sun Arena against Adiron-
dack. The puck drops at 5:05
p.m.
Ben Street scored a third
period goal to tie things up for
the Penguins, and Brian Gib-
bons tallied the game-winner
with less than four minutes
left. It was Gibbons second
goal in two preseason games.
Zach Sill was assessed a
match penalty for elbowing in
the second period. Hynes re-
viewed the play after the game
and said Sill was finishing his
hit. He doesnt expect a sus-
pension.
Keven Veilleux, who left
Fridays game with an injury,
didnt play on Saturday. Hynes
said he will see a doctor on
Monday and until then he
wont know the extent of the
injury.

the New Jersey Devils to a 2-1
preseason victory over the
Philadelphia Flyers on Saturday
night.
Petr Sykora added his second
goal of the preseason, strength-
ening his chances of making

The Flyers took a 1-0 lead on
Scott Hartnells power-play goal
with 3:31 left in the first. Phila-

Looks like there
is a light at the
end of the tun-
nel. A nice ridge
of high pressure
will be setting up
next week to
bring us some
dry weather and
sunshine; we just
have to get
through the next
few days first. It
will be a chilly
morning with
lows around 43.
Remember to
grab your rain-
coat since the
possibility of a
shower is likely.
We will warm up
to 61, and the
chance of a
thunderstormis
possible later in
the day. Monday
will bring show-
ers with mostly
cloudy skies and
some drizzle
with a high of 60
and a low of 45.
On Tuesday,
things will slowly
start to turn
around. We will
have a few
morning and
afternoon stray
showers but
should turn part-
ly sunny with a
high of 63 and a
low of 45.

NATIONAL FORECAST: Low pressure will continue to sit over the Northeast, with clouds, cool tem-
peratures and scattered showers. The Southeast will be dry, but temperatures will be on the cool
side. Scattered thunderstorms will be possible from the Southwest into the Rockies this afternoon.
Most of the West Coast will be dry, but some rain will develop along the Pacic Northwest Coast.

P
redicting the pace of holiday
sales is one of those insider par-
lor games that hits the spotlight
this time of year, only because Amer-
ican Idol is over, the Super Bowl is far
off and were all sick of talking about
the weather. Judging by their accuracy
in recent years, economics experts
might do better forecasting temper-
ature and precipitation than how wide
consumers will open their pocketbooks
in November and December.
But that inconsistency only means
its more of a challenge for prognostica-
tors like Anthony Liuzzo to gaze into
their crystal snow globes and come up
with a guesstimate.
How hard is it to be right, or even
close? In 2009 Liuzzo, a professor of
business and economics and director of
the MBA program at Wilkes University,
predicted that sales would rise just 2
percent, after falling 2.8 percent the
prior year. Sales finished up 3.6 per-
cent.
Last year, with memories of the
Great Recession lingering, he predicted
a meager 1.5 percent gain, but again
was surprised as was nearly every
other forecaster that sales rose 4.4
percent. The figures, by the way, are
for sales at stores open at least a year,
considered the most accurate measure
of retail spending.
What happened? Last year I
thought I was being optimistic, Liuzzo
said. What he missed was, there was
so much pent up demand.
I dont know if its in reaction to
missing low the last two years, but for
2011 Liuzzo is predicting a 3.5 percent
gain. Well, he was predicting that when
he drew up his forecast on Sept. 6.
With the data that has come out
since it would probably go to the low
3s, closer to 3 than 3.5, he said on
Friday.
That puts Liuzzo in the middle of the
pack compared to other forecasters,
whose predictions for sales growth
range from 2.2 percent to 3.5 percent.
But while those seem reasonably opti-
mistic, that kind of increase could turn
out to be flat or even a slight decline in
real terms.
Thats because inflation, which is
running about 3 percent, is not fac-
tored in, and this years Thanksgiving
to Christmas shopping season is 30
days long and includes five Saturdays.
That difference alone could account for
3 percent more sales compared to last
year.
All of this leads to the conclusion
that their will be little magic for retail-
ers in the 2011 holiday season. Liuzzo
thinks the stores are prepared for that.
I think the retailers are ready this
year, not overly optimistic or pessimis-
tic, he said. That means shoppers who
tarry may find less selection as Christ-
mas approaches. Still, many of them
may wait; sales the week between
Christmas and New Years now account
for about 10 percent of all holiday busi-
ness, he says, as some shoppers wait
for after-holiday bargains and others
cash in gift cards.
Liuzzo has consistently been a be-
liever in the resilience of American
shoppers, but acknowledges that a new
frugality will hurt sales this year.
Were behaving in a much more
fiscally responsible way, which hurts
in short run but is good in the long run,
he said.
That makes consumers something
like Washington politicians right now
emphasizing thrift at a time when
spending could give the economy a
needed boost. Of course, if we em-
braced that philosophy wed need to
change direction and become more
frugal in good times, socking away our
acorns for a long winter that inevitably
arrives.
Good luck with that, on both individ-
ual and national levels.

LOS ANGELES When
John Landgraf joined FX as
head of entertainment, he
smugly figured hed landed in
the catbird seat. After all, the
News Corp.-owned cable net-
work had two hit dramas on
the air and a hot prospect
about to premiere.
It quickly dawned on him
that he could easily fall on his
face. Im the schmuck whos
supposed to replace The
Shield, Nip/Tuck and Res-
cue Me, Landgraf recalled
thinking when he was hired in
January 2004. Not only was
Landgraf going to have to de-
velop FXs next set of hits, he
was also going to have to find a
way to make money from
them.
Although the shows he in-
herited delivered solid ratings
and were adored by critics,
they were very expensive. The
costs kept rising the longer
they were on the air, as cast
and crew demanded bigger
raises. But because FX bought
rights to these series fromoth-
er producers rather than own-
ing them, the network did not
participate in rerun or DVD
sales. Therefore FXdidnt have
muchleverage whenit came to
negotiating deals to keep the
shows on its network.
Youve got tofigure out how
to pay for it, said Landgraf,
who devised a way to change
that equation to his networks
financial advantage. He creat-
ed FX Productions, an in-
house unit that now produces
or co-produces seven FX
shows, meaning the company
shares in any profits and has
more control over costs.
Landgraf, who has since
been promoted to president
and general manager, appears
to be sitting pretty. He has
shepherded new and more fi-
nancially sound shows includ-
ing the gritty drama Sons of

WASHINGTON The Obama
administration and Republicans
each want a broad overhaul of the
tax system to close loopholes and
lower corporate rates, but small
businesses that do much of the na-
tions hiring feel theyre an after-
thought in the debate.
A lot of the conversation is
dominatedbytopics that arereally
a focus of larger businesses, said
KristieArslan, president of theNa-
tional Association for the Self-Em-
ployed.
By government definition, a
small business is one with fewer
than 500 employees. To most
Americans, however, the image of
asmall business is theself-employ-
ed contractor, a family restaurant
or a mom-and-pop shop in a strip
mall. Statistics suggest that 78
percent of small businesses have
10 employees or fewer.
These businesses rarely can
take advantage of tax breaks for
howthey write off equipment pur-
chases, or even the payroll tax ho-
lidays being proposed in the presi-
dents recent jobs plan. Their tax
needs areoftenmorebasic andnot
addressed in either Democratic or
Republican plans.
Its inexpensive, or relatively
inexpensive, small fixes that could
be done in the tax code that could
really have a profoundeffect, said
Arslan, noting that more than half
of all small businesses are home-
based firms.
The group which counts
more than 200,000 members
wants astandardtaxdeductionfor
a home office. The qualifications
for claiming such a deduction
wouldnt change from the present
system, but the self-employed
couldopt totakeastandard$1,200
or $1,500deductioninsteadof hav-
ing to itemize and keep receipts.
The association also seeks a
change to allowthe self-employed
to deduct fully their health care
costs. Employers who hire work-
ers are able to deduct from taxes
what they spend on employee
health care, and the employee is
not taxed on the health care of-
fered by their employer. The self-
employed get no such break.

ozens of businesses affected by
floodwaters last month remain
closed and a fewmay never reo-
pen. But while waiting to rebuild,
some have come up with creative ways
to serve customers, many of them also
displaced by the flooding.
A pair of banks, Wells Fargo and
Bank of America, set up mobile ATM
machines to serve customers in Shick-
shinny and West Pittston respectively.
Both banks buildings were damaged
by floodwaters from the Susquehanna
River when it overflowed it banks
Sept. 8 and 9.
Within days
of the water re-
ceding, the
Bank of Amer-
ica branch, op-
posite the Pen-
Mart at the
corner of Lu-
zerne and
Wyoming ave-
nues in West
Pittston, was
back in business thanks to
mobile banks with two teller
windows and four ATMs that
were set up in the parking lot.
Wells Fargos retail banking
branch at 2 W. Union St., in
Shickshinny will be closed for
some time. But the company
brought in a mobile ATM so
that customers can conduct
basic banking near their
homes.
The mo-
bile ATMwill
remain in
place until re-
pairs are
made to the
banks retail
space, which
received
heavy flood
damage. The
ATM allows both Wells Fargo
customers and non-Wells Far-
go customers to receive cash,
while Wells Fargo customers
also can make transfers,
check their account balances
and print mini-statements.
Guards are on duty around
the clock for the safety of cus-
Flood waters forced Village Pet Supplies owner Brenda Bartlett to vacate her store located in Hanover Twp. and sell
her inventory from the back of a rented Penske truck in the Dundee Plaza parking lot until restorations to Bar-
tletts store are completed. In photo Bartlett checks on the store.

Landgrafs strategy has beento
have a healthy mixof low-cost co-
medies and big-budget dramas
each of which turn traditional
genres on their heads.
Under Landgraf, FXs prime-
time audience has grown 55 per-
cent. According to Nielsen, this
year FX is averaging almost 1.5
millionviewers a night, an18 per-
cent jump over last year. Among
the coveted demographic of
adults ages 18 to 49, skewing
more toward males, FX has just
over 800,000 prime-time view-
ers, an improvement of 17 per-
cent.
The network is also financially
stronger. Advertising revenue at
FX in 2011 will hit nearly $521
million, compared with $325 mil-
lion five years ago, and operating
revenue is expected to top $1 bil-
lion for the first time, according
to SNL Kagan, an industry con-
sulting firm.
Landgraf has a fantastic com-
bination of creative skills and
business skills, said Peter Rice,
chairman of entertainment at
Fox Networks Group, to whom
Landgraf reports. That sort of
right-brain left-brain combina-
tion is unusual, and he has it
spades.

WASHINGTON Jose Palo-
mo was surprised when the
knock on the door came in Au-
gust, informing himthat his Cal-
ifornia home had been fore-
closed and hed need to vacate
promptly. After all, hed recently
started payments on an in-house
mortgage modification with Ci-
tiMortage Inc.
I was speechless, didnt know
what to say. Whats going on?
Why? They got our hopes high
saying we got approved; every-
thing was going to go through,
recalled Palomo, 23, a car sales-
man fighting to keep his small
home in Riverside, Calif.
Palomos plight illustrates
why housing remains such a
drag against U.S. economic re-
covery. Hes fighting to keep a
738-square-foot home that today
is worth less than $85,000. He
was given a mortgage modifica-
tion where hell owe about twice
that amount illustrating how
such modifications often fail to
solve the problem theyre de-
signed to fix. Simply put, mort-
gage modifications arent clean-
ingupthe housing-finance mess.
And to top it off, even as he be-
ganmakingpayments onhis still
too-high mortgage, Palomo still
faced losing his home under-
scoring lenders relentless pur-
suit of foreclosure proceedings
four years after the housing-mar-
ket bust.
Today there are at least 4.2
million homeowners who, like
Palomo, are late on their mort-
gage payments or somewhere in
the delinquency and foreclosure
process. The first wave of fore-
closures came duringthe 2008fi-
nancial crisis as subprime mort-
gages given to weak borrowers
imploded. Now the subsequent
economic downturn and high
unemployment keephousingde-
pressed.
The administrations of Ge-
orge W. Bush and Barack Obama
both offered incentives for lend-
ers to help homeowners modify
their mortgages. Those efforts
havent achieved much.
FromDecember 2009 through
June, more than 1.6 million gov-
ernment-backed mortgage mod-
ifications had been started, but
only 791,000 became perma-
nent. These numbers remain
well below the goal of 4 million
modifications that the Obama
administration set for itself.
Mortgage modifications fall short of expectations
By KEVIN G. HALL
McClatchy Newspapers
If we just leveled the playing
field... youwouldboost their bot-
tom line at the end of the day,
said Arslan.
The National Federation of In-
dependent Businesss chief econ-
omist, William Dunkelberg, said
the ongoing debate over taxing
earners reporting more than
$200,000 of taxable income is
weighing on small business own-
ers, many of whom claim their
business income when filing
their personal income taxes.
What are my tax rates three
months from now? That would
be nice to know. There is no cer-
tainty about anything. This is
what theyre unhappy about,
said Dunkelberg.
The National Restaurant Asso-
ciation shares that concern.
There are more than 1 million
restaurants nationwide, and
about 93percent of themarecon-
sidered small businesses. The
group wants Congress to adopt a
permanent and simpler tax poli-
cy for writing off equipment pur-
chases, over a period of 15 years
or less. That period has been ap-
proved as a temporary measure,
but absent renewal, the time
frame could revert back to an an-
tiquated 40-year-long tax write-
off.
If you know that the tax laws
you are dealing with only apply
for nine or 12 months, but your
investment schedule is three to
fiveyears, or sevento10years, its
hard to make the larger, sus-
tained investment, said Scott
DeFife, the groups executive
vice president and head of gov-
ernment affairs. (For now, much
of the tax-overhaul debate focus-
es on issues such as whether cor-
porations should be allowed to
bring home foreign earnings at
reducedtaxrates, or if theenergy
sector should lose tax breaks.
Small firms are lost in the mix.
Somehowit is OKtotakeahit
(on mounting deficits) on tax
provisions that benefit larger cor-
porations, said Arslan, adding
that the word small business is
the card thats always pulled out
when there is a talking point on
the economy ... but a lot of policy
out there does not help main-
streambusinesses. We should be
looking at shoring up mom-and-
pop businesses, because if you
look at themas a whole, they are
Main Street America.
TAX
tomers.
We wanted to provide our
Shickshinny Wells Fargo cus-
tomers with banking services as
quickly as we could after the
flood waters subsided, said
Greg Collins, Wells Fargos
Northeast Pennsylvania com-
munity banking president whos
based in Kingston. This ATM
traveled here fromNorth Caroli-
na and is being well received. It
will stay in Shickshinny until we
complete the necessary repairs
at 2 West Union Street.
Collins said 7 feet of water
filled the banks lobby and even
seeped into the vault damaging
contents in safe deposit boxes.
He said with borough residents
already dealing with damage
and recovery, forcing themto go
without a local bank or to travel
about 15 miles to the next clos-
est Wells Fargo branch in Ply-
mouth would have been unfair.
While there are multiple
banking options in the Wyom-
ing Valley, the same cant be
said for some organic pet food
lines.
Village Pet Supplies, in the
Dundee Plaza on the Sans Souci
Parkway in Hanover Township,
sustained 6 feet of water in its
store. Most merchandise was re-
moved before the floodwaters
entered, according to owner
Brenda Bartlett, but thousands
of dollars in merchandise, shelv-
ing and equipment was lost.
The store, open for nearly
nine years, sells healthy, holi-
stic, organic and all-natural pet
foods. Many of the brands full
lines are not available anywhere
else locally. The closest retail-
ers that sell full lines of the
products are in Bloomsburg, Al-
lentown and Montrose.
Bartlett said knowing how
hard it is for some animals to
switch foods and some ani-
mals, because of health issues,
need specific brands she knew
she had to continue making
brands such as Verus, Precise,
Orijen and Acana available.
Thanks to one of her main dis-
tributors, Natural Animal Nutri-
tion, of Edgewood, Md., a
Penske rental truck was set up
in the plazas parking lot so Bar-
tlett can continue selling prod-
ucts while the store is being gut-
ted and rebuilt.
I was desperately upset, she
said. She worried about her loy-
al customers and their pets and
knew she couldnt just cease
selling the specialty food for a
few months. She had establish-
ed a loyal customer base whose
pets had become accustomed to
the products and she couldnt
imagine them having to change
foods or travel a great distance
to buy it.
Her dedication to her custom-
ers has paid off.
Were surprisingly busy,
said Bartlett, who lives in Nanti-
coke. She added that cash and
checks are the only forms of
payment accepted since theres
no electricity or internet avail-
able for her to accept credit
cards.
Its low budget, Bartlett
said. Weve got a receipt pad
and a calculator.
She said shes hoping to be
back in the store by Halloween
but the first few weeks it will
be a bare-bones operation.
The Enterprise Rent a Car on
Route 11 in Edwardsville was
flooded and they too have a mo-
bile business unit in place to
handle customers needs. The
bus, equipped with computers,
is in the stores parking lot and
able to take reservations. The
unit arrived just three days after
the flooding.
OPEN
Thanks to one of her main distributors, Natural
Animal Nutrition, of Edgewood, Md., a Penske rent-
al truck was set up in the plazas parking lot so
Bartlett can continue selling products while the
store is being gutted and rebuilt.

Q: My boss, Jerry, keeps try-
ingtoreduce his workloadby giv-
ing me assignments that he
shoulddohimself. He alsofails to
follow up on important issues,
which often leads to a crisis.
When this happens, Jerry tends
to fabricate facts and blame oth-
ers, including me.
I have never complained about
Jerrys management style, but I
suspect he knows how I feel
about him. On my last perform-
ance review, he rated me satis-
factory in areas where I had pre-
viously been outstanding.
Since then, Ive been keeping me-
ticulous records to protect my-
self.
After 17 years with this compa-
ny, I have no intention of leaving.
Im sure Jerrys incompetence
will catchupwithhimeventually,
but until that happens, howcan I
preserve my career? Talking to
upper management is not an op-
tion, because Jerry is good
friends with the executives.
A: Having a difficult boss who
is well-connected creates a chal-
lenging set of circumstances.
Since there is little hope of chang-
ing Jerry and apparently no ave-
nue of appeal, your only remain-
ing choice is to start managing
up in a politically intelligent
manner.
Assuming that your job per-
formancehasnt deteriorated, the
declining appraisal rating is a
clear sign that Jerry is not happy
with you. He may be a self-pro-
tecting slacker, but he can still af-
fect your career and reputation,
so you need to repair this rela-
tionship.
First, you must simply accept
the unpleasant fact that you are
stuck with a bad boss. Instead of
becoming annoyed whenever
Jerry screws up, stop expecting
him to be any better than he is.
Lowering your expectations may
help you feel less irritated.
Despite your low personal re-
gard for Jerry, you still need to
show respect for his position.
Managers are highly sensitive to
any sign of disrespect, so watch
your nonverbal behavior. If you
roll your eyes or speakina conde-
scending tone, Jerry will un-
doubtedly notice and take of-
fense.
Since you say that Jerry is
aware of your feelings, you must
have conveyed contempt during
your interactions with him. To
send a more positive message,
try to be consistently pleasant,
cooperative and helpful. This
may actually improve your per-
formance rating.
Finally, to increase your own
leverage, develop as many allies
as possible. Having higher-level
managers in your network can be
especially useful. The more peo-
ple who know and admire you,
the safer your job will be.
Q: My uncles wife has been
sending insulting and hurtful
emails toeveryoneinour family. I
believe she sends these emails
fromwork, so I want to teach her
a lesson by telling her supervisor.
Can you advise me on how to ap-
proach this professionally?
A: You can approach this pro-
fessionally by not doing it at all.
This is a personal family matter,
so involving your aunts supervi-
sor is completely inappropriate.
Instead, instruct your email
programto direct all correspond-
ence from your aunt to the junk
email folder. That way, you can
avoid both the nasty messages
and the unnecessary drama.

NO TAXIS? BUY CASINOS
Its tougher to find an available
taxi in Las Vegas. Thats an en-
couraging sign for any investor in
casino stocks. FBR Capital Mar-
kets analysts say taxi figures are
a good indicator for business
conditions in Vegas. They actual-
ly have a stronger correlation
with casinos gambling revenue
than even the number of visitors
to Las Vegas. Thats because
people who ride in taxis are likely
ones who fly into Vegas, rather
than drive. They tend to spend
more. Augusts taxi trip growth
was slower than Julys, but the
FBR analysts say it is still en-
couraging because its growing
rather than shrinking.
CANT BEAR IT
The S&P 500 fell 15 percent be-
tween April 29 and Thursday, but
its still not a bear market yet. That
would mean a 20 percent drop.
But if were on the way to one, in-
vestors may need to prepare for
months more of declines. After
looking at every bear market since
1946, Standard & Poors Equity
Research found it takes an aver-
age of 14 months for one to hit
bottom. We are only five months
into this decline. The longest bear
market took 31 month. It came af-
ter the tech bubble burst in 2000
and lasted until 2002. Even after
the index hits the 20 percent
mark, it keeps falling for an aver-
age of nine months more.
AH, YOUTH
Smaller and younger is better, at
least when it comes to hedge
funds. That's what research firm
PerTrac found when it studied how
the size and age of a hedge fund
related to its performance. Funds
with less than $100 million in as-
sets under management and funds
that were less than two years old
had better returns than older and
larger ones. The reason could be
that smaller hedge funds attract
less notice when they purchase
stocks, so they can more deftly ad-
just their portfolios. And younger
hedge funds tend to have lower
overhead and use more up-to-date
technology. That lets them stream-
line their operations.

Sudhir Nanda cares about the num-
bers. He is head of equity quantita-
tive research at T. Rowe Price,
which means he screens for stocks
by looking at their price relative to
their earnings. He also considers
their book value, which is what ac-
countants say the company is worth
if it shut down. He studies their re-
turn on equity, which is a companys
profits divided by how much share-
holders have invested in it. Nanda
runs T. Rowe Prices Diversified
Small-Cap Growth fund.
Is it frus-
trating to
see every-
thing fall-
ing in uni-
son regard-
less of their
numbers?
We try to ig-
nore short-
term volatility
and short-
term correla-
tion spikes.
I think companies that are an-
nouncing bad earnings, they do un-
derperform. In the short term, it may
not matter. But over time, a compa-
ny that is producing earnings, in-
creasing cash flow, should outper-
form. If you look at the history of the
market, there have been very few
times where (buying stocks that look
like good values) has not been re-
warded over long periods of time.
To find good values, what do you
look at first, a stocks price rela-
tive to its earnings?
Typically, I like to look at cash flow
before (price-to-earnings), because
everyone looks at (price-to-earnings)
first, so it gets arbitraged away. Typi-
cally, we dont look at only one met-
ric. We look at multiple metrics be-
cause the idea is that they confirm
each other.
Does one work better than others
before or after downturns?
Typically, after downturns, price to
book works very well in the U.S. be-
cause (analysts) earnings estimates
are off. (Analysts earnings expecta-
tions) take time to turn, because
they wait for information. Otherwise,
price to book is not a great metric at
many other times.
And you say avoiding big drops
in stocks is just as important as
finding winners?
Its very simple math: When a stock
goes from $100 to $50, thats a 50
percent drop. But to go back to
$100, it has to go up 100 percent.
So mathematically, If you can pre-
vent big down moves in your portfo-
lio, over time, there is a higher
chance that you will (benefit from
compounded growth to arrive at) a
higher ending value.
And you can do that by buying
firms with higher dividends, because
they tend to outperform in down
markets, by avoiding (high risk)
stocks and by avoiding stocks with
low return on equity.
Return on equity is a good
indicator?
In down markets, high ROE stock
will outperform 65 to 70 percent of
the time. In up markets, they just
keep up with low ROE stocks. The
one time that low ROE stocks do
well is coming out of bottoms, com-
ing out of recessions, because these
stocks tend to get beaten up a lot,
and they get a big bounce back.
That happened in 2003. That hap-
pened in 2009. When people talk
about the low-quality rally, that is
what they are talking about.
So do you stock up on utilities
then, if you want to avoid stocks
that could drop a lot?
People assume utilities are the best
defensive sector, but we found that
in down markets, consumer staples,
health care and utilities all tend to
outperform a similar proportion of
the time - 70 to 75 percent. But over
time, both staples and health care
have higher returns than utilities
(because they rise more than utilities
during up markets).

InsiderQ&A

Dee-Ann Durbin, Tom Krisher, Kristen Girard AP
Ford lost $17 billion in 2006,
the year Alan Mulally became
CEO. In 2010, it made $6.6 bil-
lion. The 66-year-old Kansan
reined in Fords bureaucracy and
infighting. He shed money-losing
brands like Jaguar, Volvo and
Mercury. He closed six U.S.
plants, cut thousands of jobs and
billions in engineering costs.
Mulally still has challenges.
Ford is trying to overhaul Lincoln,
once the nations top-selling luxu-
ry brand. Sales in China are
about a sixth of those at General
Motors. And a slow economy is
hindering a comeback in U.S.
sales.
Mulally spoke with The Asso-
ciated Press about the economy
and his industry. Some excerpts:
What are your biggest worries
about the economy?
We're generally on the right
track, but it is going to be a slow-
er recovery than we've ever had
before. The private sector lead-
ing us out of this recession is the
most important thing.
Why arent companies using
their cash stockpiles to hire
more?
The consumer has pulled back.
Were ready with the products
and services that people really
do want, but we're going to
match our production of goods
and services, cars and trucks, to
what the real demand is. We're
very disciplined about that. ...
The demand is still very, very low.
Is it a permanent trend that
people want more fuel-efficient
cars?
I sure think so. Most of us in
the United States and around
the world know that we are go-
ing to pay more for energy go-
ing forward. There will be ups
and downs but, in general, it is
more expensive to find oil and
bring it to market than ever be-
fore. So fuel efficiency has just
continued to move as the No. 1
consideration.
Take us through how, inside
Ford, that changes things.
If you look at Ford historically in
the United States, we were
about 70 percent trucks and big-
ger SUVs and made 30 percent
cars. Around the world, the per-
centage is the opposite way. But
in the United States, we are
moving to a tremendously bal-
anced portfolio of small, medium
and large vehicles. Over the next
few years, we'll be at the place
where nearly 60 percent of our
vehicles are small- or medium-
sized cars, and about 40 percent
will be the larger SUVs and
trucks. It really is a tremendous
transformation of Ford.

Everyone has to eat. Thats one reason why
agriculture stocks look so appealing after their
recent drop, Credit Suisse strategists say.
Prices for wheat and other agricultural
commodities have fallen since the start of
September, along with expecta-
tions for global economic growth.
That has dragged down stocks of
fertilizer producers and makers of farming
equipment.
But the supply of agricultural commodities in
inventories is still low, which should help
support prices. Rising incomes for families in
emerging economies will also mean more
demand, Credit Suisse analyst Mary Curtis
wrote in a report.
This screen shows stocks that could benefit
from the need to boost crop production yet still
look relatively cheap. Agrium, CF Industries
and Potash make fertilizers. Deere makes
farming equipment. Bunge owns grain
elevators and oilseed processing plants and
also sells fertilizer.

Treasury yields edge up
Treasury yields rose from their record lows this past
week. The yield on the 10-year note rose to 1.93 per-
cent Friday from 1.82 percent the week before. De-
mand for U.S. government debt securities has gener-
ally been strong since late summer. Stocks and com-
modities have been volatile because of concerns
about Europes debt crisis, and that has sent Trea-
sury prices higher and their yields lower.

VIEWS S E C T I O N E

SOON VOTERS of
Luzerne County will
converge on neigh-
borhood polling plac-
es and with a loud,
clear voice elect 11
people to a new coun-
ty council that will
reform county government and select
the most qualified, independent and
professional county manager to lead it.
Well, thats whats supposed to hap-
pen. But in this most critical cross-
roads election, at a time when our
politics, planning and future economic
paths forward are obscured in a dense
fog, there are no guarantees.
In May the two major parties each
nominated 11 candidates for the job.
Twenty-two contenders to compete in
November for the 11 available seats on
council, and weve heard precious little
from them since.
In the meantime, however, a few
undaunted independents have secured
the necessary signatures to join the
fray, become candidates and have their
names on the November ballot.
With so many candidates seeking so
many seats in a contest so replete with
importance and high expectation, you
would expect far more excitement
than presently exists on the barely
perceptible campaign trail.
The moment for candidates to step
up, speak up and justify their county
candidacy already has arrived and
most council candidates are late,
weeks late.
Election Day is Nov. 8. With only 37
days remaining before the big vote
there appears to be little intelligent
exchange of ideas and almost nothing
to justify the two parties request for
support of their candidates at the bal-
lot box. Its quiet.
Too quiet.
The two major political parties like
it that way. Candidates with an orga-
nized party behind them and a history
of loyal and habitual voters under-
pinning their silence can employ the
ancient strategy of lying low, avoiding
issues and winning regardless.
On the other hand, two independent
candidates Jere Packard and Rick
Williams have been speaking out,
meeting voters and making their views
known.
Packard, 73, is an adjunct professor
of history at Misericordia University
and the former president of Wyoming
Seminary, where he administered for
17 years a college preparatory school of
200 employees, 750 students and a $16
million budget. Packard lives in King-
ston with his wife Ingrid; they are the
parents of three grown sons.
In listing his reasons for an inde-
pendent council candidacy, Packard
did not mince words: We need a coun-
ty manager who will act independently
and in the best interests of the people.
My fear is that some on council may
attempt to select someone amenable
to political pressure. I am running to
ensure there is a voice on council inde-
pendent of Valley partisan politics.
(See www.packard-for-council.com.)
Williams, 63, is an accomplished
architect and founder of his own firm,
Williams, Kinsman & Lewis, in down-
town Wilkes-Barre.
He decided to enter the race be-
cause, Im concerned that the new
council might get too preoccupied
with party politics and power. I am an
independent. I think for myself. I am
beholden to no one. I have no ax to
grind, no party to serve, no hunger for
power. I just want to get this new form
of government off to a good start.
Williams and his wife Linda are
residents of Kingston and are the par-
ents of two teenagers, Oliver and Lil-
lian. His stated goals if elected: to
select an excellent, high-performing
county manager and address the near
half-billion dollar county debt. (See
www.rickwilliamscountycouncil.com.)
This might be the year when a few
independent candidates might win.
While Democrats and Republicans are
lying low, independent council candi-
dates Jere Packard and Rick Williams
are standing up, speaking out, creating
a stir, and they are gathering support.

CHESTER IS com-
fortably lying under
an apple tree,
munching to his
hearts delight on old
rotted fruit. Occa-
sionally he lifts his
nose in the air and
smells fall. Then he might roll over
on his back with an apple in his
mouth or he might stand, shake and
look as though hes ready to spring
into action only to collapse under
the tree and grab another apple.
Standing over him, I urge him to
his feet.
Chester, you idiot, you bum you,
lets go, I cajole. Exercise. We need
to get into shape for the long days
ahead. He stares up balefully. I re-
turn his gaze with a look of disgust.
I am not serious. I love Chester.
Most often he doesnt even look at
me so I grab him by the collar, lift
him to his feet and make him walk.
Hes compliant but leaves his apple
trove reluctantly, looking back wist-
fully.
I begin to jog and he breaks into a
lope, rarely straying from my side
but bumping into
me and looking up
affectionately.
Sometimes, he
actually runs side-
ways as if he is a
Slinky toy. My
11-year-old daugh-
ter Meredith im-
itates him perfect-
ly and I howl in
laughter each time
I watch her do the
Chester run.
Autumn,
though, is not a
time for laughing
at Chesters twist-
ed gait and mock-
ing him. October
is the month he
begins coursing through the woods
with a frantic sense of purpose. This
is bird-hunting season and the two of
us must be sharp to harvest our prey.
In your minds eye, youre probably
not envisioning Chester as a highly
motivated, clear-focused hunting
machine who instantly springs to life
when he enters a field or the woods.
Well, think again, you skeptic.
Chester is a hunting dog. My hunt-
ing partner. Advertised succinctly,
accurately and with a light tone of
snobbery by the kennel he came from
as a Gentlemans Shooting Dog.
The description is half true, if you
focus on the promise of the dog. His
work in the field is excellent, almost
manic.
At home, though, Chester displays
a clumsy lovableness thats endearing
but reveals an attention deficit that if
he were a child in school would put
him in the principals office so often
hed have his own chair. It makes
perfect sense that his early training
as a bird dog was provided by an
elementary school teacher, Bob
Barth, who once told me he teaches
younger children because you can
still give em a hug.
A pipe-smoking outdoorsman with
a linebackers body and the heart of
an angel, Barth is in his 27th year of
teaching all but two of them
teaching first-graders at Lamar
Township Elementary School in the
Keystone Central School District
based in Lock Haven.
Like all dogs, Chester needs love
and patience. Playing in the yard
with our other dogs he often trips
over his own feet, tumbling head
over tail to the ground. Hes not
much more stable in the house.
Its tradition for a longtime friend
to come to our house for dinner on
Christmas night. Last year, after the
family had left the table, my friend
and I sat reminiscing, talking politics
in peaceful serenity as snow fell out-
side the window.
A terrible commotion interrupted
the calm as a crashing, bone-thump-
ing set of sounds bounced off the
walls.
The guest jumped.
Whats that? he asked, shaken.

OSTONThings were going well for Job Asiimwe as he approached his final semester
at Bunker Hill Community College here last winter. Then a toothache almost derailed
his college career. Asiimwe, an immigrant fromUganda whos been on his own since age 19,
was close to graduating. He had been accepted to a bachelors degree programat a college in
Vermont and his plan to become a lawyer seemed within reach until something in his
mouth began to throb.
He needed a crown on a tooth that
had begun to decay. But the proce-
dure cost $2,000, more than he
earned in a month, and it wasnt cov-
ered by insurance. As close as he was
to graduation, he considered aban-
doning his studies so he could earn
the money.
Asiimwe was on the verge of be-
coming one of the surprisingly large
number of Americancollege anduni-
versity students who fail to earntwo-
year associate degrees within even
three years, or four-year bachelors
degrees within six.
I dont think many people know
how sometimes just one medical
event could affect your life, said Asi-
imwe, now 22.
Asiimwe was fortunate. Bunker
Hill steppedinandpaidfor thecrown
with funds froma pool of foundation
money. He finished the semester,
graduated in June, and has now be-
gun work on his bachelors degree.
Ive seen other students drop out,
not because they cant afford tuition,
but theycant affordtheother costsof
coming to college rent, health in-
surance, transportation, Asiimwe
said. I was lucky.
More and more American colleges
and universities are recognizing that
unexpected crises unrelated to aca-
demics are pushing people to drop
out, especially as the economy stag-
nates. Under intense pressure from
parents, taxpayers and politicians to
improve abysmal graduation rates,
the colleges are not only assuming a
new role in helping their students
over the bumps theyre also keep-
ing a close eye on students and even
monitoring social media to detect
early signs of trouble.
Our students are not sheltered
from the economic problems of the
country, said Linda Byrd-Johnson,
director of the U.S. Department of
Educations TRIO programs, which
helplow-income, first-generationand
disabled college students.
Thesekids arejust likeeverybody
else, she said. Some of them are
struggling to make ends meet.
TheDreamkeepersprogramthat
helped Asiimwe underwritten by
the Kresge Foundation, the Lumina
Foundation for Education and the
Walmart Foundation assists low-
income students facing personal
emergencies that could derail their
graduation plans. Payouts average
$500 but can be as small as $11 for a
bus pass. (TheLuminaFoundationis
amongthe funders of The Hechinger
Report, which produced this story.)
Many such interventions have not
been around long enough to con-
cretely measure their success, but
some have.

An escape from Lackawanna
County Prison is totally
unacceptable
Robert McMillan
Lackawanna Countys prison warden launched an
internal investigation and announced the unpaid
suspensions of four security staff members after last weeks escape of
a murderer, who reportedly was left unsupervised in the Scranton
lockups exercise yard. The escapee was back in custody the same day.
THEY SAY all politics is
local. But economic deci-
sions impact the whole
economy and reverberate
internationally. That is why
politicians meddling with
the economy creates so
many disasters.
The time horizon of politics seldom reaches
beyond the next election. But, in economics,
when an oil company invests in oil explora-
tions today, the oil it eventually finds and
processes might not make its way to market
and earn a profit until it is sold as gasoline a
decade from now.
In short, the focus of politicians is extreme-
ly limited in both space and time and all the
repercussions that lie beyond those limits
carry little, if any, weight in political decisions.
At one time, many state banking laws for-
bad a bank from having multiple branches.
The goal was limited and local namely, to
prevent big, nationally known banks from
setting up branches that many locally owned
banks could not successfully compete against.
But, limited and local as such state banking
laws were, their impact was both national and
catastrophic, when thousands of American
banks failed during the Great Depression of
the 1930s. The vast majority of the banks that
failed were in states that had laws against
branch banking.
Why? Because, when there is a single bank
in a single place, the fate of both its depositors
and its borrowers depends on what happens
there. If it is a wheat-growing region, a drop in
the price of wheat means people deposit less
money in the bank at the same time when
more borrowers are unable to repay their
loans.
Banks caught in that kind of crossfire went
under on a scale that shrank the total amount
of credit in the country and helped plunge the
national economy into depression.
Our own more recent housing boom and
bust began when local politicians in various
places began severely restricting the building
of houses, in the name of open space,
smart growth or whatever other political
slogans were in vogue.
As housing prices skyrocketed in such
places as coastal California, both renters and
home buyers in these particular places often
had to pay half their monthly income just to
put a roof over their heads. This in turn led to
Washington politicians declaring a need for
nationwide laws and policies to create affor-
dable housing, even though people in most
of the country were paying a lower share of
their income for housing than in previous
years.
This political crusade for affordable hous-
ing was at the heart of laws, regulations and
even threats from the Department of Justice
against mortgage lenders that failed to lend to
as many low-income and minority borrowers
as the politicians wanted them to.
Regardless of the additional problems that
occurred as these mortgages were bought by
Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, or were later
bundled into securities sold by Wall Street,
the fundamental problem was that many
people simply stopped making their mortgage
payments as was perfectly predictable when
lending standards were forced down by the
government.
The politicians and bureaucrats who forced
lenders to lower their standards had limited
goals in mind namely affordable housing
and more minority home ownership. But the
repercussions when the housing markets
collapsed spread all across the American
economy and led to financial crises overseas,
where financial securities based on American
mortgages were widely sold.
All politics might be local, but the repercus-
sions reach around the world, and even ex-
tend to generations yet unborn, who will be
left to cope with the national debts resulting
from this debacle.
Quick fixes for the economy now are un-
likely to get investors to make job-creating
investments, which depend on long-term
factors ignored by politicians who are focused
on the 2012 elections.
Local politics can have worldwide consequences

COMMENTARY
T H O M A S S O W E L L
BEFORE EVERYONE in
Washington rushes out to
slay No Child Left Behind,
lets be clear what the guid-
ing principles of the 2001
law are:
In return for a sub-
stantial hike in funds to help schools serve
low-income students, states must measure
how all their schools are doing, based on
the states education standards.
Schools are expected to show progress
each year on student test scores. By the
year 2014, all children are to be proficient in
reading and math.
If schools consistently fail to show
adequate progress year over year, the feds
and states can intervene. The most dramat-
ic sanction would be to close schools. In
other cases, struggling campuses would
have access to substantial funds for tutor-
ing. In some situations, students could
transfer to another public school.
These are the essential parts of No Child,
which admittedly has a bad brand. But do
we really want to ditch these fundamentals?
Data from a recent Harvard Journal on
Legislation report shows substantial in-
creases in reading and math scores for some
age groups of blacks and Hispanics since
states started measuring their schools and
holding them accountable. For example,
9-year-old blacks and Latinos have shown
essentially a one-year-or-more gain in read-
ing and math from1999-2008.
Im making these arguments again be-
cause the Obama administration announced
earlier this month that it wants to give
states a way out from No Childs require-
ments.
Yes, the administration wants to continue
testing kids. Thats good. But to what end?
After all, the president would let each state
determine how it would use the data each
year to assess its students.
The White House also is ending No
Childs requirement that every child be
proficient in reading and math by 2014. It
instead wants them college-ready.
College readiness is important, but how
will states define that term?
Also, why give states a waiver to decide if
they want to use the tutoring requirements
under No Child? Dont we want kids who
are struggling to be guaranteed access to
help? Likewise, why get rid of the federal
requirement that lets students transfer out
of a consistently failing school? Does the
administration, which would let states
decide whether to provide that option,
think its OK to leave kids in those schools?
Yes, there are ways to improve the law.
For example, the administration is right
that, if a school shows progress with one set
of students, but not another, those differ-
ences should be factored into the campus
assessment. The White House also is cor-
rect that states should use classroom data
to help evaluate teachers. Classroom obser-
vations shouldnt be the only way to do the
assessments.
But the real headline here is discourag-
ing: The White House is lessening the fed-
eral governments requirements for public
schools. In this age, when everyones mad at
government, thats likely to be popular.
Lets remember, though, why the feds
stepped up their involvement because,
just as the legislations name suggests
students were being left behind.
Do we really want to return to that era,
where some kids have access to good
schools, but students in other states dont?
Doesnt the federal government have a
stake in trying to give all children a shot at
a better school, much like it does in cre-
ating access for all of us to clean air or clean
water?
Yes it does. Which is why No Child needs
amending, not ending.
Obama should mend, not end, No Child Left Behind

COMMENTARY
W I L L I A M M C K E N Z I E

HE CONCEPT IS
simple: Test school
students each spring
in reading and math,
and keep working until every
one passes the test every year.
Yet the numbers that mea-
sure schools Adequate Year-
ly Progress are numbing.
Just try to decipher the re-
sults of all those tests in all
those grades with all those
subgroups (minorities, spe-
cial education and more) and
all those exceptions
to the simple-sound-
ing goals
Yeah, youre entit-
led to be confused
about the test scores
released Thursday
by the state Depart-
ment of Education.
For example, the
minimum goal was
67 percent of students scor-
ing proficient in math, and
West Side Career and Tech-
nology Center in Pringle had
only 19.6 percent do that, but
it still made the goal. As math
goes, that doesnt sound very
proficient.
Be confused by these statis-
tical gauges of academic pro-
gress, but dont be dismis-
sive. This stuff isnt going
away soon far fromit. In the
endless quest to reform
education, Washington and
Harrisburg continue to im-
plement changes, and pro-
pose even more.
President Barack Obama
has decided states can apply
for exemption from some of
the rules of the law known as
No Child Left Behind, the
massive legislation that man-
dated all those tests in all
those grades with all those
goals for all those subgroups.
Obama also has proposed
changes to the law, but the
way it looks right now, there
will be more tests, not fewer.
Pennsylvania Gov. Tom
Corbett has slashed educa-
tion funding,
prompting
teacher layoffs,
larger class-
rooms and pro-
gramming cuts.
Yet he is moving
forward with
plans to make
proficiency in
the Keystone
exams mandatory for high
school graduation. And he is
developing a system that will
link test results to teacher
evaluations.
All of this costs tax dollars
and causes headaches for par-
ents, students and educators
alike. It forces districts to fo-
cus shrinking resources on
growing mandates, increas-
ing the odds that other vital
aspects of education will be
shortchanged.
We need to pay attention to
the intent and outcome of
these efforts. Getting educa-
tion right is a test we cant af-
ford to fail.
OUR OPINION: SCHOOL PROGRESS
These are tests
we cant ignore
In the endless
quest to reform
education, Wash-
ington and Harris-
burg continue to
implement
changes

A
S A QUICK glimpse
at Republicans debat-
ing in presidential fo-
rums or in Congress
will confirm, regulation is one
of their scapegoats of the hour
in a struggling economy. Regu-
lating businesses, they say,
kills jobs.
But too little or no regula-
tion brings its own harmin the
real world as a cursory read-
ing of the newspaper will
show.
Consider the Environmental
Protection Agency, which
came into being more than 40
years ago under a Republican
president, Richard Nixon.
These days Republicans in
Congress are doing their best
to gut the agencys enforce-
ment powers, particularly in
the area of airborne pollutants.
Environmentalists fear an-
other attack this week when
the House votes on HR 2250
and HR 2681, which are at-
tempts to repeal recent EPA
rules under the Clean Air Act
restricting toxic emissions
from incinerators, boilers and
cement kilns. Once again, pro-
tecting jobs is the excuse for
jeopardizing the health of
Americans.
How people feel about their
well-being can be gauged from
an EPA hearing in Pittsburgh
Tuesday. Some 108 speakers,
many of them people living
near Marcellus Shale natural
gas wells, signeduptobeheard
at the daylong meeting. All but
about a dozen of the speakers
supported the regulations. In
addition, the Sierra Club pre-
sented the three EPA officials
with 23,560 comments gath-
ered from people concerned
about drilling here and else-
where. Anti-regulation dogma
aside, jobs are fine but so is
health.
Meanwhile on Capitol Hill,
U.S. Sen. Rand Paul, the Ken-
tucky Republicanandtea party
favorite, has beenthesolehold-
out blocking a law to strength-
en safety rules for oil and gas
pipelines a needthat eventhe
industry acknowledges after a
deadly gas pipeline explosion
last year and other mishaps.
But Sen. Paul dislikes federal
regulation more than the
chance to avert tragedy. And
right there is all the proof that
is needed of the moral bank-
ruptcy of anti-regulation ideol-
ogy.

WHILE diplo-
matically
inconvenient
for the West-
ern powers,
Palestinian
Authority
President
Mahmoud Abbas attempt to
get the United Nations to uni-
laterally declare a Palestinian
state has elicited widespread
sympathy. After all, what choice
did he have? According to the
accepted narrative, Middle East
peace is made impossible by a
hard-line Likud-led Israel that
refuses to accept a Palestinian
state and continues to build
settlements.
It is remarkable how this
gross inversion of the truth has
become conventional wisdom.
In fact, Benjamin Netanyahu
brought his Likud-led coalition
to open recognition of a Pal-
estinian state, thereby creating
Israels first national consensus
for a two-state solution. He is
also the only prime minister to
agree to a settlement freeze 10
months something no Labor
or Kadima government has ever
done.
To which Abbas responded
by boycotting the talks for nine
months, showing up in the 10th,
then walking out when the
freeze expired. Late last month
he reiterated that he will contin-
ue to boycott peace talks unless
Israel gives up in advance
claim to any territory beyond
the 1967 lines. Meaning, for
example, that the Jewish Quar-
ter in Jerusalem is Palestinian
territory. This is not just absurd.
It violates every prior peace
agreement. They all stipulate
that such demands are to be the
subject of negotiations, not
their precondition.
Abbas unwaveringly insists
on the so-called right of re-
turn, which would demograph-
ically destroy Israel by swamp-
ing it with millions of Arabs,
thereby turning the worlds only
Jewish state into the worlds
23rd Arab state. And he has
repeatedly declared, as recently
as about a week ago in New
York: We shall not recognize a
Jewish state.
Nor is this new. It is perfectly
consistent with the long history
of Palestinian rejectionism.
Consider:
Camp David, 2000. At a
U.S.-sponsored summit, Prime
Minister Ehud Barak offers
Yasser Arafat a Palestinian state
on the West Bank and Gaza
and, astonishingly, the previous-
ly inconceivable division of
Jerusalem. Arafat refuses and
makes no counteroffer, thereby
demonstrating his unserious-
ness about making any deal.
Instead, within two months, he
launches a savage terror war
that kills a thousand Israelis.
Taba, 2001. An even sweet-
er deal the Clinton Param-
eters is offered. Arafat walks
away again.
Israel, 2008. Prime Minis-
ter Ehud Olmert makes the
ultimate capitulation to Pal-
estinian demands 100 percent
of the West Bank (with land
swaps), Palestinian statehood,
the division of Jerusalem with
the Muslim parts becoming the
capital of the new Palestine.
And incredibly, he offers to turn
over the citys holy places, in-
cluding the Western Wall
Judaisms most sacred site, its
Kaaba to an international
body on which sit Jordan and
Saudi Arabia.
Did Abbas accept? Of course
not. If he had, the conflict
would be over and Palestine
would already be a member of
the United Nations.
This is not ancient history.
All three peace talks occurred
over the past decade. And every
one completely contradicts the
current mindless narrative of
Israeli intransigence as the
obstacle to peace.
Settlements? Every settle-
ment remaining within the new
Palestine would be destroyed
and emptied, precisely as hap-
pened in Gaza.
So why did the Palestinians
say no? Because saying yes
would have required them to
sign a final peace agreement
that accepted a Jewish state on
what they consider the Muslim
patrimony.
The key word here is final.
The Palestinians are quite pre-
pared to sign interim agree-
ments, like Oslo. Framework
agreements, like Annapolis.
Cease-fires, like the 1949 armi-
stice. Anything but a final deal.
Anything but a final peace.
Anything but a treaty that ends
the conflict once and for all
while leaving a Jewish state still
standing.
After all, why did Abbas go to
the United Nations last month?
For nearly half a century, the
United States has pursued a
Middle East settlement on the
basis of the formula of land for
peace. Land for peace produced
the Israel-Egypt peace of 1979
and the Israel-Jordan peace of
1994. Israel has offered the
Palestinians land for peace
three times since. And been
refused every time.
Why? For exactly the same
reason Abbas went to the U.N.
last week: to get land without
peace. Land for peace, yes. Land
without peace is nothing but an
invitation to suicide.

ANOTHER VIEW
A photograph by Pete G. Wilcox
and words by Mark E. Jones
IM LOOKING
for a few good
men.
Or women.
Or companies.
Or churches.
Or trusts.
Im looking
for partners 11 partners, to be
precise to help people such as
Sherell Garrison, who, at 17, is a
jewel of Detroit, an honor roll
student bursting with potential,
who, until now, was facing a
limited future.
Sherell began drawing as a
child on Detroits west side. She
drew with crayons. She drew
with colored pencils. She drew
on any available paper and some-
times on the walls of her grand-
mothers house.
Oh, yeah, she did a lot of
great work on that wall, her
father, David, recalled, laughing.
We had to wash it off, but we
praised it first.
Today her artwork she is
particularly gifted at drawing
and painting people, their
moods, their expressions, their
facial nuances hangs in her
mothers room, on the walls of
her fathers auto glass shop and
recently was hanging inside a
gallery of the prestigious College
for Creative Studies in Detroit.
Where she is a freshman.
And where the few good men
or women, companies, etc.
come in.
I am starting something called
the Detroit Dream Scholars at
CCS. It is a series of scholarships
for kids from the area to realize
their artistic dreams kids who
otherwise wouldnt have a
chance given the high costs of
tuition.
I knew my parents couldnt
afford it, Sherell said. They also
had her twin sister starting
college (at Eastern Michigan
University). Her mother, Stacy,
who works as a corrections
officer, told Sherell, Keep your
dreams, but have a Plan B.
When I asked Stacy what Plan
B would have been, she
shrugged and said, Probably go
somewhere else.
I have a better Plan B. Lets
help kids like Sherell stay with
Plan A. As in A Scholarship.
Not a handout. An invest-
ment. As part of this Detroit
Dream program, young people
like Sherell would be required,
every summer during the four
years of school, to produce some
work of art, free of charge, to
help beautify our city. A mural.
A sculpture. A billboard. The
exterior of an otherwise ugly
building.
The city is making you better?
You make it better in return.
Id love to do that, Sherell
said.
Of course. Like most artists,
she just wants the chance to
create.
I know. I was once where she
is.
I was coming out of school. I
wanted an education and to
learn the arts, but my family
could not afford the entire col-
lege tuition. I took loans. Fortu-
nately, I was given time to pay
them back (school was cheaper
then), and I found a place in the
creative world of writing.
I know the joy that provides. I
know the inspiration it gives
young people. Think of all the
artists, writers, musicians, danc-
ers, actors, directors, painters or
photographers who might never
have been had they been forced
to stop their studies at age 18.
Detroit has a working class, a
darn fine one, but it also has a
creative class.
And we should nurture it.
I would not ask anyone to do
something I wouldnt, so I am
funding the first Detroit Dream
Scholar. Four years, $60,000
total. This utilizes all available
scholarship sources from CCS
and makes up the difference.
One down. I want to make it a
dozen.
Would you or your company
join me? You could sponsor
one talented young Detroiter
(and all of them, like Sherell,
have to be top-rate students and
top-rate people to even be con-
sidered) and you could watch
him or her grow and go. I know
there are others out there who
have been blessed, as I have
been, to make a living doing
what we love.
Shouldnt we share that bless-
ing?
If youd like to partner up
and the goal is to quickly label it
A Detroit Dozen Dream Schol-
ars please get in touch via
e-mail at malbom@free-
press.com. The money can be
spread over four years so it is not
so onerous.
Meanwhile, youll be support-
ing the most important currency
of this city: young, productive
minds.
Not a handout, an investment.
The next four summers, Sherell,
through her paintbrush, will
help make Detroit more beauti-
ful. But by learning here and
thriving here, she already is.
You can, too.
Program aims to foster dreams of young artists

Blood drive tops
last years effort
T
he fifth annual Mike Cho-
callo Memorial Blood
Drive in July was the most
productive one thus far, yield-
ing 50 units of much-needed
blood as well as a double red
cell donation.
I am grateful for the people
who came out to help ensure
that there will be lifesaving
blood available when it is
needed. Six people donated in
memory of my husband, and
my son Michael did the dou-
ble red cell donation.
I know that my husband
was smiling down through the
holes in the floor of heaven as
his family and friends gath-
ered to remember him. The
other 44 donations were made
by the regulars, as we affec-
tionately call them those
people who donate on the
56-day schedule all year. God
bless these people for their
devotion to this lifesaving
mission. I see the regulars at
each blood drive, and we have
formed a bond as we share
conversation and refresh-
ments.
The blood drive was a beau-
tiful thing; people of all ages,
from all walks of life and with
problems of their own all
united in the selfless, quiet
generosity of sharing. That is
something that money cannot
buy. I cannot say enough
about the volunteers and paid
staff who make the wheel
turn at the blood donation
sites, and I want to thank each
of them for what they do.
From the time I walk in the
door, each person is friendly,
kind and efficient, making the
donation process seem like a
visit with friends.
The need for blood dona-
tion never ends; the recent
flooding in our area caused
the cancellation of countless
blood drives, resulting in a
shortage of blood.
There are blood drives
within minutes of almost
everyones home, and many
offer nifty prizes and incen-
tives for donors.
Please donate blood; you
never know whose life might
depend on it. Heroes come in
many forms and sizes, and
that hero can be you.

Helping hands
in a difficult time
M
y husband and I left our
dwelling due to flooding
concerns after feverishly
trying to save what we could.
We noticed there was sewage
backing up into our basement,
so we capped off any access
and began moving whatever
we could to the first floor.
The next day, my husband
and I were devastated to see
that the sewer backup on
Brookside Street, Wilkes-
Barre, had entered our first
floor. When we returned home
on Saturday, the sewage was
off the street.
Now we are on the road to
what we are calling our new
beginning. We thank the
good Lord for providing us
with the following people who
helped and supported us
through this transition: Fran-
chelli Brothers, Tom Young,
John Young, Dave Young,
Ronald Evans Jr., Marianne
Fox, George Petrick, Emily
Benson, Dan Laury, David
Hess, Jen Hawk, Mary Kroll,
Jason Prutzman, The Magic
Bus Cafe, Jack (the bartender
at Dukeys), Joe Shumoski,
Dukeys, Nancy Polocko, the
American Red Cross, the city
of Wilkes-Barre, Mayor Tom
Leighton, Sen. John Yudichak,
Wilkes University students,
Kings College students, Ar-
row Auto Glass, Mom, Dad
and the Federal Emergency
Management Agency.
We are hoping that there
will be some sort of state aid,
because we know FEMA will
not be able to supply us with
the full amount of what it will
cost to put our house in order.

Eagles Vick must
take his lumps
I
read sports columnist Paul
Sokoloskis commentary
regarding the unfair beat-
ings poor Michael Vick is
suffering at the hands of just
about everyone (Beatings
and batterings dogging Vick,
Sept. 27).
What I glean from this co-
lumn is that many NFL play-
ers, their coaches and officials
are banding together in an
unfair attack on the Eagles
star quarterback, and Mr.
Vick is very displeased with
the rough and unjust treat-
ment hes receiving. Poor
baby.
Perhaps some of the hits
hes taken were late and per-
haps hes been battered due to
lack of protection while in the
pocket. Ill never know first-
hand because I gave up watch-
ing the Eagles play when Mr.
Vick was brought into the
Eagles fold and, subsequently,
signed to his $100 million,
six-year contract. While he
might continue to be reviled
by many fans, others have
newfound admiration for his
excellent skills on the field
and dont remember that little
matter about the dogs. Go
Eagles! (No matter what).
In his interview with GQ,
Mr. Vick stated, Its almost as
everyone wanted to hate me,
but what have I done to any-
body?
Seriously? My grandfather
always said you can measure a
man by how he treats his dog.
That said, it is my opinion
that Michael Vick will never
be anything more than some-
thing unpleasant on the shoe
of society.

Conahan counsel
W
hile en route to Boston
several years ago, I was
pulled over on Route 184
in Connecticut for doing 72
mph in a 55-mph zone. The
fine amounted to $198, which
I could have put to better use
by augmenting my cigar and
wine supply. However, I was
aware I was breaking the law
and did not try to point out to
the trooper that I was in the
flow of traffic. I was the one
stopped and accepted respon-
sibility.
Although there is no com-
parison of my speeding fine to
former Luzerne County Judge
Michael Conahans corruption
conviction, I must give him
credit for accepting responsib-
ility for his misdeeds, unlike
the lame excuses of his co-
conspirator, Mark Ciavarella.
On the other hand, I am
sure that Conahan was aware
that his defense attorneys
were going to attempt to ratio-
nalize his behavior by claim-
ing Conahans father beat him
when he was a boy for forget-
ting to stoke a furnace. What
utter nonsense!
The elder Conahan was
elected mayor of Hazleton
three times, and I understand
he was highly regarded. In my
view, it was unnecessary to
seek a lighter sentence by
besmirching his fathers repu-
tation.
Conahan gets an A for his
statement at his sentencing.
The same cannot be said for
his counsel.

Flooding victims
need speedy help
T
here is much to say and
much to do relative to
Hurricane Irene and Trop-
ical Storm Lee that hit North-
eastern Pennsylvania, includ-
ing the Wyoming Valley, with
a vengeance. Many agencies
are dealing with ways to assist
flood victims.
It was extremely distressing
that certain members of Con-
gress seemed to have more
interest in smoke and mirrors
than immediately and expedi-
tiously providing the neces-
sary funds for the Federal
Emergency Management
Agency. An emergency is
exactly what that word signi-
fies. It demands quick and
speedy action to combat a
problem that requires a mas-
sive support system for the
benefit of all those affected by
these tragic events.
Commendation goes to all
those federal elected officials
who made the decision to
quickly come to the aid of
flood victims.
We have the heart to meet
the need.
We have the talent to meet
the need.
We have the commitment to
meet the need.
We have the volunteers to
meet the need.
We have the creativity to
meet the need.
We have the strength to
meet the need.
We do not have all the fi-
nancial resources to meet the
need. Support the needs of
disaster victims and their
families now.

SEND US YOUR OPINION
WITH HIS political
party firmly in control
of Congress, President
Obama devoted his
first two years in
office to several mas-
sive regulatory
schemes that would
for the first time bring whole sectors of
the economy under the control of the
federal government.
The Patient Protection and Affor-
dable Care Act, which passed only after
several reluctant lawmakers were plied
with giveaways to their states, placed
fully 17 percent of the U.S. economy
into the hands of the Department of
Health and Human Services.
Not only does Obamacare mandate
that every American purchase health
insurance, but it regulates out of exist-
ence basic plans that now cover mil-
lions of Americans. It mandates expen-
sive new coverages. It regulates doc-
tors, hospitals and insurers. It fines and
regulates employers. And it establishes
a board of unelected functionaries who
now have the power to ration medical
care.
Is it any wonder that barely a year
after the law was passed more than a
thousand companies and unions, in-
cluding some of the presidents biggest
supporters, have applied for and re-
ceived waivers?
The public backlash against Obama-
care was so intense that Congress
quickly abandoned another of the presi-
dents goals a vast expansion of envi-
ronmental regulations. The proposal,
called Cap and Trade, would have
imposed a complicated system of pe-
nalties and credits aimed at driving up
the cost of energy. Why do that?
It is a central doctrine of environ-
mentalism that energy from fossil fuels,
such as Pennsylvania coal and natural
gas, are a danger to the world. Despite
that carbon emissions have dropped
sharply in the past two decades be-
cause of technology, and despite that
carbon is a natural element found ev-
erywhere in the environment, the aca-
demic left from which President Oba-
ma comes is fervently devoted to the
proposition that our energy system
must be replaced by new, green tech-
nologies. Cap and Trade is explicitly
designed to force Americans to use less
energy.
But with the economy on the ropes
and energy prices soaring, the presi-
dents allies in Congress were willing to
go no farther. No matter. The president
would merely regulate what he was
unable to legislate. So last year, the
federal Environmental Protection
Agency declared that carbon emissions
were a dangerous substance that could
be regulated by the federal govern-
ment. Its the first time that a federal
agency has been able to assume so
much power over the economy without
congressional approval.
Since then, the rules have been tum-
bling out of the EPA. Indeed, there are
330 new regulations under consid-
eration right now, and every one of
them would have an impact of $100
million or more on the economy.
But theres more. The other agencies
of the Obama administration also are
busy writing new rules. They would
affect our food choices, our financial
lives, our farmers and even the basic
renovations that we make to our
homes. Nothing apparently is beyond
the reach of the federal government.
Small businesses pay the heaviest
price to comply with these rules. Ac-
cording to the Small Business Adminis-
tration, mom-and-pop businesses pay
60 percent more to meet federal stan-
dards than larger corporations. Its no
surprise, then, that small businesses
are extremely reluctant to hire new
workers even if they can because of the
cloud of uncertainty that billows out of
Washington these days.
The National Federation of Inde-
pendent Business, which is the coun-
trys largest advocate for small busi-
nesses with more than 14,000 members
in Pennsylvania, has embarked on a
nationwide campaign.
It is our goal to bring to Americans
the stories that we hear every day from
our members, but which never seem to
make the news. They involve small
business owners who are being de-
stroyed or prevented from operating
successfully by the landslide of new
rules coming from Washington.
Readers can learn more about our
coalition and its members by visiting
www.sensibleregulations.org.
Our representatives in Washington
should be reminded that Pennsylvanias
economic future depends on a healthy,
efficient private sector, and that before
they approve new burdens, they should
ensure that the rules are actually neces-
sary and founded in science.

CONGRATULATIONS
Dwight Eisenhower was just nishing his
second term as President of the United States,
Detroit was designing cars with tail ns, and Elvis
Presleys music was blaring from45 RPMs on record
players throughout America. It was 1959 and
Hanover Homes was building its rst house in the
Lehigh Valley. Five decades later, music downloads
onto Ipods, muscle cars have been replaced with
Hybrids, and Hanover Homes North Corporation
redenes quality by designing and building the most
energy-ecient and environmentally responsible
homes oered in the area. Building to Energy-Star
and National Association of Home Builders Green
Guidelines has dierentiated Hanover from the
normal cookie-cutter world of home construction.
Teir consistent adaptations to the needs, lifestyles,
and budgets of their customers have resulted in
homes that have earned the company numerous
awards for architectural design, construction and
energy eciency.
Joe Peterson, President and Owner of Hanover
Homes North, was entering the 4th grade in
1959 and running a home building company
was the farthest thing from his mind. Today and
for more than 30 years, Joe has been building
homes and light commercial projects throughout
Northeast PA. His strong mechanical engineering
background, technical abilities, and interest in
architecture has given Hanover the ability to test the
boundaries of best construction practices and high
performance, sustainable designs resulting in lower
energy and maintenance costs for homeowners. As
a Certied Green Professional he constructed the
rst Energy Star and NAHB Green-GOLD home
in Lackawanna County. Joes interest in the local
community has led to his serving on the boards
of the Building Industry Association of NEPA,
the Luzerne County Housing Partnership, the
Pennsylvania Builders Association, the National
Association of Homebuilders and the BBB of
NE and Central PA. In 2010 Joes considerable
impact on the construction industry and service
to community was recognized as he named he
Pennsylvania Builders Associations 2009 Statewide
Builder of the Year.

Oh, I said, thats just
Chester falling down a flight
of stairs. Hes fine.
There are times when I call
Chester to the door and he
comes at a dead run, misses
the door and collides head-on
with the side of the house.
Hes been known to wander
into the middle of a busy
street and stand there, quizzi-
cally looking at the brake-
screeching, horn-blowing cars.
Actually, all of these traits
vanish when bird season starts
this time of year, as it does in
several parts of the country.
He and I will be in the north
woods next weekend, hunting
grouse and woodcock with
some friends.
They have never seen Ches-
ter, but when they do, the day
before we hunt, he will be
curled up at my feet like a big,
spotted foot cushion. When
we go to our cabins for a
nights rest, he will sleep ei-
ther next to my bed or on it.
When I describe how the
next day they will see a differ-
ent Chester when he swings
into action, hunting and re-
trieving with passion, they
will laugh, skeptical that my
unfocused pet could be a seri-
ous hunting dog. If they shoot
something, I assure them,
Chester will retrieve. He will
hold up his end of the bargain.
Here is how Chester and I
became a pair.
About three years ago, after
losing two hunting dogs to old
age and mourning for a year
or more, I decided the only
possible cure for my pain was
to buy a new dog.
I had always admired the
DeCoverly setter, which has at
its roots the English setter,
out of a line called Ryman
setters.
More than likely, you now
know more than you care to
know about dog lineage. The
explanation is offered only
because when people see one
of these dogs and ask its
breed, owners often say En-
glish setter, referring to the
general type.
DeCoverly Kennels is in
Falls and the drive alone, up
through Tunkhannock along
the river and through the
winding, hilly roads, is worth
a visit to see puppies and
older dogs.
Whew. Im starting to bore
myself being so explicit, espe-
cially when theres a good dog
story to tell. Readers love dog
stories, I know, because my
column about my old yellow
lab Boone is still requested
for reprint many years after
the writing and after he left
the good Earth lying in my
arms at the vets office follow-
ing many bouts with the mala-
dies of old age.
I was looking for a replace-
ment for Boone and a springer
spaniel named Sophie the day
I drove to DeCoverly Kennels.
Looking for a puppy I can
raise and train to be a bird
dog, I told the kennel owner
by phone the day before I
drove to the kennel.
When I arrived, the owner
invited me into his office.
Grimly he stared at me over a
cup of coffee.
No puppy for you, he said.
I wont sell you one.
Crushed as if my prom date
had refused at the last second
to go to the dance with me, I
winced.
Nope, he said. At your
age (61 then) you may not be
around long enough to hunt a
dog whos now a pup.
He said he had some dogs
that were about two years old
that had completed their early
bird-dog training. There was
one lying outside on the porch
with Bob Barth, he said. And
sure enough, there was Prince
(his kennel name), gnawing
on a wooden table.
Barth held him by a leash
and said the dog was new to
the field but was his favorite
training prospect. Prior to his
training, he had been consid-
ered a possible breeding dog.
Hes one handsome devil, a
tri-color of brown and black
speckles against a background
of white coat.
He had failed the final con-
firmation test as a prized stud
by one centimeter.
Missing out on a lifetime of
breeding in the kennel must
have been a blow to him, but
he showed great eagerness to
greet me.
Although I could imagine
this dog and I, against a set-
ting of fall foliage, walking
back to my truck after a re-
warding day in the field, I told
the kennel owner I still want-
ed a puppy.
Hell never bond with me,
I proclaimed.
He asked me to watch him
work Chester in the field be-
fore turning down the chance
to buy him. But by that time
Chester had jumped up with
his paws on my chest and was
looking soulfully into my eyes.
From that point on, I never
had a chance.
The first night at my house,
Chester followed me to my
bedside. Hes been there ever
since well, if you dont
count the times hes been
under the apple tree. He often
comes to the office with me.
As much as I love him, there
is one grudge I will forever
hold against him. If he had
come along sooner, revealing
the many characters he plays
in real life and the many per-
sonalities he displays, I could
have chronicled them in writ-
ing and we might have made
millions with a book and then
movie about Chester and
Me.
Of course, Chesters undying
loyalty and friendship are
worth far more than fame and
fortune and, actually, its
not Chester against whom I
hold a grudge.
Its Marley.

Hunlock-Harveyville Rd., Hunlock Creek
(Between Muhlenburg Corners & Country Quick Mart)
and other scholarship programs,
reports that the proportion of stu-
dents who stay in school fromone
semester to the next after getting
help fromDreamkeepers is 72 per-
cent, compared with 50 percent
for students who dont receive
such help.
Finances are the number one
reason students drop out. Its not
just school finances its life fi-
nances, said Lauren Segal, presi-
dent and CEO of Scholarship
America. Its the day-to-day life
experiences that are the hurdles
students have to get over. And
those dont have to be big things.
They can be small things say,
their day care goes up $100 a
month, and thats the make-or-
break number.
Only 29 percent of community
college students earn two-year de-
grees within three years, accord-
ing to U.S. Department of Educa-
tion statistics. At four-year univer-
sities, 57 percent of students com-
plete bachelors degrees within six
years. The Obama administration
has called for raising graduation
rates substantially by 2020. But
about a third of students entering
college today are the first in their
families togotocollege, according
to the National Center for Educa-
tion Statistics, and a quarter are
both first-generation and low-in-
come.
A lot of the issues that (they)
have are life issues, not academic
issues, said Ingrid Washington,
vice president of student affairs at
Gateway Community and Techni-
cal College near Cincinnati.
Gateway loans laptops to stu-
dents who cant afford them and
accepts donated clothes for them
to wear to job interviews or to
work.
Theyre so close to the edge,
andthats howtheyliveeveryday,
Washington said. Educators used
to say, leave your issues at the
door. You cant do that anymore.
At Mount Hood Community
College near Portland, Ore., em-
ployees have foundstudents sleep-
ing in campus restrooms or in
their cars because they were evic-
ted from their homes. More than
half work full or part time. Fewer
than 22 percent graduate within
three years.
I dont think the general public
gets it, said Robert Cox, Mount
Hoods dean of student services.
These are people who are on the
fringe. Theyre really just trying to
get through till they get paid.
Yet with other public services
cut, he added, There arent many
other places left for students to
turn.
Mount Hood lets students
check out books, laptops and cal-
culators if they cant afford them,
runs a food pantry and provides
bus passes for students in emer-
gencies. The cost of one-way bus
fare on the local transit system is
$2.40.
Eventhat couldbeadeal-break-
er for many of these students,
Cox said.
Arecent study by researchers at
Michigan State University found
that minor problems can start a
chain of events resulting in stu-
dents dropping out.
These small things just sim-
ply having the bus fare, or an un-
expected bad grade, or being de-
pressed are shocks that prompt
students to think about quitting,
saidTimPleskac, aMichiganState
psychology professor who direct-
ed the study.

NEW YORK Summertime
or not, living is anything but
easy around the Broadway-
bound revival of Porgy and
Bess.
Ever since reports surfaced
about a drastic makeover
planned for George and Ira
Gershwins
1935 land-
mark folk
opera about
poor blacks
on Catfish
Row, smoke
can be seen
spewing
from the ears
of outraged
admirers
including
the impecca-
ble ears of a furious Stephen
Sondheim.
It may seem ridiculous to be
arguing about a production
that isnt even scheduled to
open on Broadway until mid-Ja-
nuary.
In fact, the new adaptation
recently had its first preview at
the American Repertory Thea-
ter in Cambridge, Mass. Robert
Kimball, musical-theater schol-
ar and artistic adviser for the
Ira Gershwin trusts, said the
production has not yet been ap-
proved for New York, as re-
quired, by the estates of both
Gershwins and authors Du-
Bose and Dorothy Heyward.
(Tickets for the Broadway run,
however, already are being
sold.)
The controversy may be pre-
mature, but it is hardly unpro-
voked. The fury involves radi-
cal revisions announced by di-
rector Diane Paulus (Hair)
and her creative team in Amer-
ican Theatre magazine, The
Boston Globe and, most explo-
sively, The New York Times.
Indeed, the changes sound
enormous. Porgy, the crippled
beggar who loves the fast-liv-
ing Bess, uses a cane instead of
a goat-drawn cart. Bess gets
softened as a rape victim in-
stead of a woman complicit in
her seduction. And the ambig-
uous ending, where Porgy sets
out to find Bess, has been turn-
ed into a happy one.
For starters, George Gersh-
wins magnificent music is be-
ing rearranged and reharmo-
nized, half-sung introductions
to songs are being replaced by
new dialogue, lyrics by brother
Ira and DuBose Heyward are
being revised. Sondheim, in his
book Finishing the Hat, de-
scribes Heywards lyrics for
Porgy as the most beautiful
and powerful in our musical-
theater history. Even the rav-
ishing Summertime is being
turned into a duet with an ac-
cordion because, according to
musical adapter Diedre Mur-
ray, its too high for a lullaby.

It is hard not to
bristle when
artists brag
about fixing
what most con-
sider one of the
great American
theater-opera
pieces.
No matter how many hits they
may have in their careers, artists
are usually forever identified by
one song.
Willie Nelson? On the Road
Again.
Frank Sinatra? My Way.
Carly Simon? Youre So Vain.
For George Thorogood, that
song is the enduring Bad to the
Bone, defined by its signature
chainsaw riff.
The Delaware bluesman, who
plays the F.M. Kirby Center in
Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday with his
longtime band the Destroyers, is
perfectly fine with that.
Most people are known for
one song. When I get on the
plane, they go, Well, who are
you? I say, George Thorogood,
andtheysay, Never heardof you.
Then I say, Bad to the Bone, and
they go, Oh yeah! the fast-talk-
ing Thorogood explains. Thats
not the curse of every artist; thats
the dream of every artist.
Still, the now-30-year-old tune,
released in 1982 on the album of
the same name, almost wasnt the
signature song it has become.
Thorogood says he originally
shoppedit toblues legendMuddy
Waters, whose manager not only
shot it down but became irate at
thenotionthat Waters wouldever
record Thorogoods composition.
It kind of broke my heart. His
manager got really offended, say-
ing, Well never doa songwritten
by some white guy. This is really
an insult. I said, This song is tai-
lor-made for Muddy Waters. If Er-
ic Clapton or Keith Richards
wrote that, youd record it in a
minute, Thorogoodsays. Then
we tried to give it to Bo Diddley,
and, although he liked the song,
he passed because he didnt have

S
o, do we Americans use too many bottles? Cans? Plastic
bags?
Visit the Sordoni Art Gallery at Wilkes University this
month and you may find yourself squinting as you ponder
the answer.
Welcome to the Running the Numbers exhibit where, from a
distance, the photographic images by Chris Jordan look like ocean
waves, curtains made from wood, even gravel.
But lookcloselyat that gravel. Itsmadeupof 426,000cell phones,
representing the phones retired in the United States every day.
That bigoceanwave? Its composedof tiny images of bottle caps,
umbrella handles, flower pots all representing2.4millionpounds
of plastic that, it is estimated, enter the worlds oceans every hour.
The picture that looks like curtains represents 1.14 million
brown paper bags, the amount used every hour in supermarkets in
the United States.
And, no, the Seattle-based artist did not physically collect thou-
sands of pieces of trash. Jordan worked with photos of single ob-
jects or small groups of objects and arranged them in many
thought-provoking ways.
The exhibit remains on display at the Sordoni Art Gallery inside
the Stark Learning Center at Wilkes University through Dec. 11.
The address is 150 South River St. in Wilkes-Barre.
Above: Sam James looks over the art work hung in the Sordoni Art
Gallery inside the Stark Learning Center of Wilkes University.
Top of page: Look closely and youll begin to distinguish some of the 1.14
million brown paper bags used in supermarkets in the United States every
hour. Inset top: Every 30 seconds, 106,000 aluminum cans are used in the
United States. Here is a representation of those cans arranged to look like a
portrait by Georges Seurat. Middle: The 11,000 jet trails represented in this

HOROSCOPE
HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Think about the skills
youve already learned in
your life. It wasnt easy,
but with practice you got
there. And youre about
to add new tricks to your
bag. Your brain is like a
muscle that gets stronger
when you exercise it.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Your powers of visualiza-
tion are pumping. You will
put this state of height-
ened imagination to good
purpose. For instance, you
might use it to gaze into
the future and see the per-
son you will become.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Take advantage of down-
time and rejuvenate your
energy. There is no right
way to relax. If you are
feeling carefree and loose,
then whatever youre
doing is working.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
In many ways, you are just
being born. Giving yourself
too much to think about
and do will stunt your
growth. Pare down your
schedule and focus your
attention on the obviously
essential tasks on your list.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). This
day is all about partner-
ship. You cooperate well
with others, and you get
things done quickly and
easily. You get the same
benefits from giving as
you do from taking when
you give with joy and take
with gratitude.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
Stress can hurt. Strain
becomes pain. The best
way to avoid this circum-
stance is to resolve not
to worry so much in the
first place. Detach yourself
emotionally, and you will
be able to handle things
easily and maybe even
joyfully.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Youre looking good today,
but why settle for good
when you could be ravish-
ing? All it takes is 10 per-
cent more attention to the
details, and suddenly you
sparkle and shine.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Youll excel without trying
very hard. This will prob-
ably annoy your peers.
Whats your winning
secret? You view the work
involved as a form of play.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). You will listen to your
inner voice. If there are
secrets being kept from
you, youll sense what they
are about and slyly poke
around until you get an
answer.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). A game that was
fun in the early stages
has rapidly become a joy-
less struggle. You hate to
quit, and yet quitting just
might be the smartest
thing to do.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). The clock seems to
be laughing at you. Its
speeding up and slowing
down at will, just to mess
with you. Remember: You
can be a great manager!
Youve got to show Time
who is boss.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
A boost in your physi-
cal vitality has a domino
effect on the other areas
of your life. Your self-
esteem percolates, your
love life shimmers, your
financial horizons open up.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Oct.
2). Some previous roles
wont apply, and youll
happily embrace your
new incarnation. A new
relationship helps you
transition smoothly in let-
ting go of who you used
to be. Through fall, you
will have greater freedom
and heightened creativ-
ity. Youll teach and share
your wisdom in January.
Finances pick up in March.
Cancer and Sagittarius
people adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 2, 1, 20,
44 and 29.

1. Most fish would be much bigger if
the fishermans arms would stretch
longer.
2. Fishermen think "megabytes"
describes a great day at sea.
"Storage" is room on the deck for
the catch.
3. To a good, serious-minded
fisherman, there are four seasons:
pre-spawn, spawn, post-spawn and
hunting.
4. Scientists maintain that a trout in
the wild grows one inch per year.
Once it is caught, mind you, it leaps
to one inch per hour.
DEAR ABBY
Nieces behavior
presents sticky situation
Dear Abby:
My mother
passed away
recently. My
sister, who
lives in an-
other state,
flew in with her 4-year-old
daughter, Nikki, to attend
Moms wake.
When the wake ended,
Nikki began to place stickers
on Moms hands and one
on her face. The stickers
had been given to her by
another guest before the
service started. When my
18-year-old daughter saw
what her cousin had done,
she removed them, and
Nikki threw a tantrum and
refused to leave the casket.
My sister spoke quietly
to her, trying to get the
child to leave, then allowed
her to put at least two more
stickers on my mothers
hand. Finally, I gently picked
Nikki up and took her away
from the casket. My father
is a mild-mannered man
and, although he frowned
in disapproval, he said
nothing.
This has caused a huge
rift between my sister and
me. I feel a 4-year-old is too
young to attend a wake.
Nikki should not have been
allowed to put stickers on
my mother. My sister says
I undermined her parent-
ing and had no right to
intervene. What are your
thoughts?
Saddened in New Jersey
Dear Saddened: If one de-
fines parenting as teaching
a child appropriate behavior,
your sister wasnt parenting
at all. Although the child
was well-intentioned, unless
the stickers said Return to
Sender, they had no place at
the funeral. My condolences
to your family.
Dear Abby: I recently
started dating a wonderful
man, but theres one prob-
lem: On several of our dates
he was dressed like he was
staying home to watch TV
wearing dirty pajama-type
shorts, ripped T-shirts, stuff
Id barely wear even if I were
home sick.
I have gently tried to sug-
gest he wear something else,
but he has no concerns about
his appearance. Any ideas?
Baffled in Baltimore
Dear Baffled: The wonder-
ful man you are seeing is
either eccentric or a slob. If
you have gently tried to
suggest that he make him-
self look more presentable
when you go out and have
gotten nowhere, you have
two choices: Accept him just
as he is, or look further for
male companionship.

lieve, is less the specific
changes than what Sond-
heim, in a scorching letter to
the Times, refers to as the
disdain for the original ex-
pressed by Paulus, Pulitzer
Prize-winning adapter Su-
zan-Lori Parks and four-time
Tony winner Audra McDo-
nald, who plays Bess.
I wouldnt dream of pre-
judging any production. But
it is hard not to bristle when
artists brag about fixing what
most consider one of the
great American theater-op-
era pieces because you
know nobody liked it any-
way.
Yes, there has always been
a queasy side of Porgy, a
work about blacks in a South
Carolina slum by citified
Jews from Brooklyn. Phillip
Boykin, who plays the villain
Crown here and has sung the role
in opera houses, says There are
things I have done in the opera ...
that I have hated for years. I have
hated the lines.
Remember when Matthew
Bournes all-male Swan Lake
was advertised to Broadway audi-
ences as a musical, not a ballet,
even though it was just a tricked-
up ballet? I even resented vision-
ary director Peter Brook when
his 90-minute reduction of Bi-
zets Carmen was promoted in
1983 as a musical-theater piece,
not an opera because, hey, who
wants to sit through that boring
old thing?
Porgy has always sat on both
sides of the musical-opera divide.
The other six times the show was
revived on Broadway (in cut and
simplified versions until the 70s
production), Im betting nobody
felt it necessary to insult opera to
prove its street cred.
PORGY

A Washington National Opera production of Porgy and Bess starred Terry Cook as Crown, seated, and Indira Mahajan as Bess. Con-
troversy surrounds the upcoming revival of the Gershwin classic on Broadway.
a record deal at the time.
Thorogood said the stuttering
ba-ba-ba-Bad to the Bone, writ-
ten long before its eventual re-
lease, sat dormant for nearly
eight years. Until stations suchas
Rock 107, which is presenting
Tuesdays show, got hold of it.
Classic-rock radio, thats what
did it, Thorogood says.
Considering the frequency
with which you hear the song on
the radio, he isnt exaggerating.
Bad to the Bone, along with
other Thorogood hits such as I
Drink Alone, Get a Haircut
(And Get a Real Job) and his
take on One Bourbon, One
Scotch, One Beer, have become
staples of the classic-rock format.
Naturally, thosesongs arehigh-
lights of Thorogoods hard-rock-
ing set, but he and the band also
will work in a fewselections from
their latest album, the terrific
2120 South Michigan Avenue.
A tribute to the artists and
songs of the famous blues, rock
and R&B label the records ti-
tle refers to the address of Chess
Records in Chicago 2120
contains Thorogoods interpreta-
tions of such classics as High
Heel Sneakers, Let It Rock and
Seventh Son. Its that last one,
Thorogoodsays, that has beenes-
pecially wowing audiences on
this tour.
How did Elvis Presley miss
that song? Thorogood wonders
of the jumping rockabilly tune,
which became an eventual hit for
60s rock-n-roller Johnny Rivers.
Johnny Rivers is lucky Elvis
didnt do it. He would have torn
that thing to pieces.
Thorogood said he chose the
song for inclusion on 2120 be-
cause of the response he knew it
would receive when played live.
Most people at record labels are
always picking something that
will go to radio, which is under-
standable. But when we do a pro-
ject, Im always looking for at
least three songs that I can get in-
to the live show. It keeps us ad-
vancing.
While progression is vital to
the 60-year-old, he says hes none-
theless happy to give his audi-
ence what it secretly desires:
thoseoft-playedradiohits suchas
Bone and One Bourbon.
In fact, to this day, the Dela-
ware native says fans still ap-
proach himto try to ply himwith
free booze. Even the principal of
his daughters school.
I didagiginL.A., andtheprin-
cipal came to the show. He loved
it so much and afterward said,
You and me have to talk. I
thought he was going to talk
about my daughter and, like,
counsel me or something. I
thought I was in trouble, Thoro-
good recalls.
But, no, this was a decidedly
social call.
The principal said, You and I
aregoingtodoa bourbon, scotch,
and beer together. Thorogood
says, bursting into laughter.
How do you like that?

Many mysteries with foren-
sics at the heart of their plots
tend to concentrate more on sci-
entific minutia, often at the det-
riment of characters and plot.
While Florida author Lisa
Black wraps her series around
Cleveland forensic scientist
Theresa MacLean, she steeps
her novels in the exploration of
her characters lives and mo-
tives, resulting in engrossing
stories and solid plots. Defen-
sive Wounds, Blacks fourth
novel, works well as a story
about grief and the bonds be-
tween a mother and child, while
including
just enough
forensics to
satisfy read-
ers who rev-
el in the sci-
ence.
Theresas
latest crime
scene is a
forensics
mess withno shortage of sus-
pects. Aggressive defense attor-
ney Marie Corrigans murder in
an expensive hotel suite leaves
lots of trace evidence much
of which may not be related to
the crime. After all, hotel rooms
have anendless parade of guests
who leave behind tiny bits of
DNA. Despised by the cops, her
colleagues, her clients and even
her sexual partners, Mariemade
enemies, not friends, including
at the convention for defense at-
torneys she was attending when
she was killed.
If youwant tohide anenemy,
hide it in a forest of enemies,
muses one detective investigat-
ing the crime. When two more
attorneys are killed, Theresa
tries to find the evidence that
will link the three murders.
Despite her demanding job,
Theresa finds time to worry
about her daughter, Rachel,
whose summer job at the hotel
may have put her near a murder-
er. The college-bound Rachels
growing affection for another
co-worker has Theresa on edge.
Brisk action and detailed
characters complement Defen-
sive Wounds.
Blacks investment in her
characters shows as eachemerg-
es as a real person, with under-
standable motives.
Blackknows her forensics, be-
ing a latent fingerprint examin-
er and crime scene investigator
in Florida and a former forensic
scientist for the Cleveland coro-
ners office. She loads just
enough forensics in Defensive
Wounds to make the story be-
lievable, but is careful not to let
the science overwhelmthe plot.
Defensive Wounds illus-
trates the reality of crime scene
investigations with appealing
characters.

L
ee Duncans great unrealizedambitionwas a movie basedonhis unlikelylife
with his canine pal Rin Tin Tin. He had to settle instead for the financial
rewards that came from creating a cultural phenomenon.
The ups and downs of Duncans life and the German shepherds Hollywood
career provide the spine of Susan Orleans engrossing and delightful book,
Rin Tin Tin: The Life and the Legend. Its heart lies in her exploration of howa
dog could come to embody the ideal of heroic devotion and, eventually, exist as
an icon outside the boundaries of time.
Duncan grew up fatherless in California and
spent three years at anorphanage while his moth-
er sorted out her life. Not until he was living on
his grandfathers ranch did he have a dog and the
companionship he craved only to be forced to
give up his little terrier when the family moved.
Unlike the plot of a typical Rin Tin Tin script,
the boy and his dog never reunited.
Asoldier inFranceduringWorldWar I, Duncan
came across a wrecked kennel. Amid the dead
dogs were five German shepherd puppies. He
kept two, naming them Nanette and Rin Tin Tin
after good-luck figurines of the day, and managed
to get them back to the U.S. Nanette died soon
after, and Duncan began training Rinty at his
home in Los Angeles.
The breed was relatively new, developed in
Germany in 1899, and its fierce, contemplative
countenance andathletic abilities made it perfect
for the movies. Rin Tin Tin became Americas fa-
vorite movie star, on four legs or two, after 1923s
Where the North Begins. The incredible suc-
cess of his films inthe silent era gave the fledgling
Warner Bros. studioafirmfootingintheindustry.
Agenerationlater, Duncanturnedtotelevision
to introduce Rin Tin Tin to baby boomers. A star
was reborn. The bloodline was a bit murky by
then and more than one dog was needed for the
weekly series and public events. As Orlean notes,
it was the idea behindRinTinTinheroismand
devotion that really mattered.
Orlean finds much more to the story than a
manandhis dog: goodfortuneandbadluck, mon-
ey made and lost, egos built up and torn down,
families united and broken, people loved and un-
loved, and lots and lots of litigation.
Through it all, Rin Tin Tin abides.

Rin Tin Tin: The Life and the Legend (Simon & Schuster), by Susan Orlean
LOSANGELESAccordingto
James Curtis, author of the new
1,056-pageSpencer Tracy: ABiog-
raphy, it could have been actress
Loretta Young who became the
love of Tracys
life, not Katha-
rine Hepburn,
hispartner for 26
years and with
whom he made
nine films.
Tracy and
Young, both Ca-
tholics, began
their romance while working to-
gether on the 1933 Depression-era
drama A Mans Castle. Though
TracywasmarriedtoLouiseTread-
well, the illicit pair would go to
Mass andconfessions together.
I thinkthey were drawntogether
because of the shared bond of faith,
saidCurtis,whospentsixyearsonthe
book, drawing from Tracys own pa-
persandobtainingthecooperationof
theactorsdaughter, SusieTracy.
But it was also their faith that
caused the relationship to end after
about ayear. Tracywouldnt divorce
Treadwell andYoungwouldnt have
marriedadivorcedman.
Hepburn didnt have such hang-
ups. Tracymet her ontheset of Ge-
orgeStevens1942classicromantic
comedyWomanof the Year.
Hepburnreallykindof inserted
herself into Tracys life, said Cur-
tis. Shefellmadlyinlovewithhim,
though she was never sure that he
felt the same way about her. They
hadsomeroughtimes, but shewas
absolutely devoted to him. I think
shes averyinterestingpersonwho
was, in some ways, completed by
Tracy. He was not reluctant to tell
her toshut up.
The Milwaukee-born Tracy is
considered an actors actor, who
wontwoAcademyAwards, onefor
playing a vibrant Portuguese fish-
erman in 1937s Captains Coura-
geous,theotherforportrayingthe
noble Father Flanagan in 1938s
Boys Town. Hemovedeffortless-
lybetweencomediessuchas1950s
Father of the Bride and dramas
suchas1961sJudgmentatNurem-
berg. He even did a horror movie:
1941s Dr. Jekyll andMr. Hyde.
But Tracy was beset with de-
mons, including a drinking prob-
lem and guilt over his marital af-
fairs and that his son, John Tracy,
was borndeaf.
Susie Tracy is thrilled that Cur-
tis book offers new insights into
her mother, whostayedmarriedto
Tracy for more than 40 years and
founded the John Tracy Clinic for
thedeaf. HedidntmeetMissHep-
burn until 1942, she said. There
weremanyyears beforethat where
a lot went on that people should
knowabout.
Hermother, whohadbeenanac-
complished actress and polo play-
er, coulddoalmostanything,said
Tracy. She was also a writer. She
wrote some lovelypoetry.
Tracy saidthat her dadwas very
much like the charming, devoted
father of Elizabeth Taylor in Fa-
ther of the Bride and 1951s Fa-
thers Little Dividend.
Hehadasenseof humor,Tracy
remarked. He was funny. He al-
ways hada jokeat thedinner table.
He tolda joke wonderfully.
It was director-producer Stanley
Kramer whogaveTracyasplashyfi-
nal act, castinghimin1960sInherit
the Wind, Judgment at Nurem-
berg,1963s Its a Mad, Mad, Mad,
Mad World (after which he had a
massive heart attack) and 1967s
Guess Whos Coming to Dinner
(the frail 67-year-old Tracy died just
twoweeks after its completion).
KatharineHoughton, Hepburns
niece, whocostarsinGuessWhos
ComingtoDinner,recallsthat her
auntwasabasketcaseduringthe
production of Dinner because of
Tracys failinghealth.
I think they both wanted to do
the movie, said Houghton, who
had known Tracy since she was lit-
tle. Theythought it was animpor-
tant film, and they loved Stanley
Kramer. I think they felt that, OK.
Its better than just sitting around
waitingtodie. Lets tryit. I thinkit
didprolong Spencers life by sever-
al months because he had to meet
the challenge.

STRONG CITY, Kan. Its
easytoenvisiontheworldthat pio-
neers encountered while looking
at a herd of bison grazing at Tall-
grass Prairie National Preserve in
east-central Kansas.
Little has changed over the dec-
ades on the landscape of the only
national park dedicated to protect-
ing this dwindling ecosystem,
which once covered 40 percent of
the United States. Today, less than
4 percent remains of the original
tallgrass prairie. Most of whats left
is in the Flint Hills of eastern Kan-
sas and the Osage Hills of north-
eastern Oklahoma.
Patches of theprairieareburned
in the spring, and the early growth
offers vibrant shows of wildflow-
ers. By September and October,
visitors can walk among grasses
that reach chest high in damp
years. But after a blistering sum-
mer with little rain, this years
show of foliage is knee-high in all
but the wettest areas.
The ground was too rocky to
plow in this stretch of the Flint
Hills, sonamedfor a type of quartz
that litters the ground. And so this
nearly11,000-acre patch was saved
a landscape created through a
combination of limited rainfall,
grazing and fires that routinely
sweep across the land. Only a few
trees survive these conditions, and
they grow mainly along the
springs that dot the area.
Early explorers called the land-
scape the Great American Des-
ert. But later settlers realized the
land was fertile and tilled the
fields. And so it mostly disap-
peared. Homogenous fields of
corn, wheat, soybeans and a type
of grain sorghum called Milo re-
placed the prairie that once
teemed with hundreds of species
of plants like switchgrass and blue
sage.
So what was seen as a hazard
for settlers 150 years ago is a bene-
fit for us now, said Eric Patterson,
the lead park ranger.
On the mostly unplowed prairie
that became the park nearly 15
years ago, early settlers made use
of the land much the same way as
American Indians before them.
But insteadof huntingthemillions
of buffalo that once grazed upon
theprairie, thesettlers madeuseof
the land to fatten cattle.
One early rancher grew so
wealthy he used the areas lime-
stone to build a grand four-level
ranchhomeandbarnonthelandin
the1880s. Anewvisitors center is
under construction, but for now,
most of the 23,000 visitors that
come to the preserve each year
start their tour in the ranch house,
watching a short movie in the
homes former dining room. Peri-
od furniture fills the rooms of the
partially restored home.
Fromthere, visitors can wander
among the ranch buildings, hike
morethan40milesof trail orfishin
some of the preserves ponds.
Bus tours the only way to
drive through the park are usu-
allyofferedonceor twiceadayand
last about 90 minutes.
Patterson hands out binoculars
sovisitors canget a closer lookat a
herdof16bisonduringonestopon
the bumpy trip. All but the babies
were captured two years ago at
Wind Cave National Park in South
Dakota and relocated here.
At another stop on a high point
that challenges Kansas flat-as-a-
pancake reputation, visitors can
glimpse views of rolling hills that
stretchout 15 to20 miles inany di-
rection. Lizards and skinks scam-
per among the rocks. Butterflies
flit amongtheflowers, andcrickets
chirp.
Its kind of a cerebral, Patter-
son muses. Its one of those envi-
ronmentsthat challengesyoutore-
ach out for it. Its almost like it
wants youtobe a part of its discov-
ery. You have to look close or its
not going to really tell you much.
After the hazy skies of summer
are replaced with clear, fall skies,
visitors can catch stunning views
of the stars, far away from the city
lights. While the ranch house and
barnclose inthe evening, the trails
are open 24 hours a day. No camp-
ingis allowedinthepark, but there
is camping available nearby or vis-
itors can choose fancier digs such
as theGrandCentral Hotel innear-
by Cottownwood Falls.
Its very serene, Amber
Smyers, 26, a Kansas native who
lives in Seattle, said after the bus
tour ended.
Her friend, Jessica Cutting, 27,
also of Seattle, had visited numer-
ous national parks from little-
known ones in Alaska to the pop-
ular destination of Yellowstone
and the Grand Canyon.
It was pretty, she said. I think
there is beauty in everything.
But this isnt the typical national
park experience, the rangers read-
ily acknowledge. There are no
stunningmountainviews, canyons
or waterfalls to behold. Much of
the magic is underground, where
the plants roots reach15 to 25 feet
into the soil.
As awareness grewthat the land
was unique, Congress votedinNo-
vember 1996 to create the Tall-
grass Prairie National Preserve.
There was resistance to the move
from residents who feared federal
intrusion and that the land would
betakenoff thetaxrolls. Landown-
ers put up signs reading, Private
Land in Private Hands and Say
No to National Parks.
Former U.S. Sen. Nancy Landon
Kassebaumcame up with the idea
of a public-private partnership.
The National Park Service owns
just 34acres of the land; the bulkis
ownedbytheNatureConservancy,
an environmental group, that han-
dles grazing leases and taxpaying.
Its reallyanexperiment inhow
you can operate a national park
and have the bulk of the property
be in nonprofit, private owner-
ship, Patterson said. So far so
good.

Advertising Projects Writer
A great home awaits at 304 Vista
Dr., in the Rolling Meadows section of
Shavertown. Conveniently located just off
Hillside Rd., near to the Huntsville Dam,
this 2,990 square foot two-story offers
four bedrooms and two and half baths,
and has been beautifully remodeled.
There are plenty of terric amenities,
including a granite kitchen, great deck
with gazebo, and large master suite with
two large closets.
Listed by Richard Long of Gordon &
Long Real Estate for the newly reduced
price of $269,000, this home features pale
gray vinyl siding with blue shutters and
white trim.
You are sure to love the deck and
gazebo that extend out the rear. It is a
perfect place to entertain and enjoy the
fall and the .64-acre lot.
The front door has sidelights and leads
into a two-story foyer. Here tan speckled
ceramic tile takes you left into the 14-by-
13 dining room. A wood laminate oor
sets an elegant tone with two elongated
windows front bringing in plenty of
natural light. This room has off-white
walls and an opening rear that leads to
the kitchen.
The nearby family room measures a
plentiful 20-by-14 and has two windows
that ank a striking natural stone re-
place with stone hearth and stone mantle.
There is also a double window rear and a
door leading to the unnished basement.
The adjacent formal living room mea-
sures 14-by-13 and has two windows front
and cream wall-to-wall carpeting. This
room could also serve as an ofce or den.
Recently remodeled, the kitchen
comes complete with new cabinets
topped by tan and black speckled granite
countertops. A highlight here is a
pressed tin backsplash that accents the
countertops and compliments a tan ce-
ramic tile oor. Storage includes a walk-in
pantry closet. The breakfast area is the
perfect place for a morning cup of coffee
thanks to sliding doors that open to a rear
deck and yard. Appliances included in the
sale are a stove, dishwasher and micro-
wave. There is a single window facing
rear over the sink.
The kitchen opens to the left to the
laundry/mud room. Here you have
access to the two-car garage, a double
closet and washer and dryer hook-ups.
Vista Dr. two-story offers great setting
