POST-TRAUMATIC STRESS
FIRST OF A TWO- PART SERIES ON THE TOLL
THE DISORDER IS TAKING ON SOME VETERANS OF IRAQ AND AFGHANISTAN
NIKO KALLIANIOTIS PHOTOS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Former Marine Sgt. Stanley Laskowski thought his involvement in the war in Iraq was over when he returned home froma tour of duty in 2003. But the horror he
witnessed never went away, leading himto develop post-traumatic stress disorder.
The Iraqi soldier burst into the home, kidnapping
and then killing Marine Corps Sgt. Stanley Laskow-
skis four young children, and raping and murdering
his wife, Marisol.
The veteranMarine fought valiantly to save his fam-
ily, only to be overpowered after his rifle malfunc-
tioned, leaving himto watch as they were brutalized.
Ahorrific scene, but one that never
happened, at least not in the physical
world. The carnage was the product
of a mind ravaged by the horrors of
war that Laskowski, 33, witnessed
duringhis tour of duty inIraqin2003.
Night after night, the Iraqi soldier
the personification of men Laskowski
killed in combat exacted his re-
venge, taking control of Laskowskis
mind in a reoccurring nightmare.
It was a terrifying scene not just
for Laskowski, but for his wife and
children, whofoundthemselves faced
with a highly charged and delusional
Marine, never knowing what he
might do to protect them.
By then he had a house full of
weapons. There were guns and rifles
loaded and ready to go everywhere,
said Marisol Laskowski, 36. I was
terrified I dont think he realized
where he was or what people were do-
ing.
It was not thehomecomingtheCar-
bondale couple expected after Stan-
ley Laskowski concluded his 5-
month tour of duty in July 2003.

Story, 1C
To the U.S. Marines, former
Sgt. Stanley Laskowski was a
highly regarded solider, an effec-
tive leader who had limitless
potential.
A veteran of the war in Iraq in
2003, Laskowski earned several
medals and proved himself to be
an invaluable asset during sever-
al major battles in the initial
invasion of Baghdad, his superi-
ors said.
But just six months after he
was honorably discharged from
the Marines in 2007, the deco-
rated veteran found himself in a
jail cell, charged with breaking
into a pharmacy to steal drugs.
How had he fallen so far in
such a short time?
Was it an act of a good soldier
gone bad, who knowingly broke

KINGSTON TWP. Christ-
mas was inthe air duringanafter-
noon tea at the Cottage at the
Lands at Hillside Farms Satur-
day.
Nearly 100 people filtered
through the dozens of holiday-
decorated rooms as they toured
thehistoric Victorianhomeof the
Conyngham family. A fire crack-
led in the living rooms massive
stone hearth, while guests en-
joyed tea, eggnog and wassail
along with a huge assortment of
homemade sweets.
Built in 1881 as a summer
home for WilliamL. Conyngham,
a prominent Wilkes-Barre coal
broker, and his wife, Olivia Hill-
ard Conyngham, the cottage,
which overlooks the 412-acre
farm, boasts 34 rooms and 14
bathrooms. The Conyngham
family owned and operated the
farm for over 100 years.
Renovations to the cottage,
which included painting, updat-
ing wiring and installing a water
main, began in 2009, when the
Lands, a nonprofit organization,
bought the farm.
Each room, preserved with
original period furnishings, is a
reminder of the opulent lifestyle
the family led. Inthe heart of the
Depression, (William L. Conyng-
ham) brokered all of the anthra-
cite coal in the Valley that fueled
the Industrial Revolution, said
Chip Morgan, cottage chairman.
Volunteer tour guides pointed
out interesting details, from the
French porcelain basin in the
cooks bathroom, to the servant
buzzers in the childrens bed-
rooms. The shelves inthe butlers
pantry bulged with china that
once served250people. Aneleva-
tor, which was the only one in the
region for years, travels from the

pillowcases and bathrobes. The

all extremelyvaluable, saidMor-
gan.
Fran DeFazio, 55, of Houston
said she loved learning the histo-
ry of one of Wyoming Valleys
great families. Ever since I was
a little girl I used to go by this ev-
ery day and always wonder what
it was like, she said. It is such a
grand structure, and to see this
preserved is such a joy.

Times Leader Correspondent
HARRISBURG A North-
eastern Pennsylvania lawmaker
says he wants to change the
commonwealths three-year-old
open records law to get rid of
an exemption that allows Penn
State and three other state-re-
lated universities to keep their
operations out of the public
eye while receiving taxpayer
money.
Democratic state Sen. John
Blake of Lackawanna County
said that he hopes to introduce
a bill early next year to end the
disclosure exemption for Penn
State, Temple and Lincoln uni-
versities as well as the Univer-
sity of Pittsburgh.
The exemption has come un-
der scrutiny since Penn State
assistant football coach Jerry
Sandusky was accused of sex-
ual abuse involving eight boys
over 15 years. School adminis-
trators Tim Curley and Gary
Schultz are charged with not
properly alerting authorities to
suspected abuse and with per-
jury. In the wake of the scan-
dal, Joe Paterno, Division Is
winningest coach with 409 vic-
tories, was fired by university
trustees. University president
Graham Spanier also left his
job under pressure
Terry Mutchler, executive di-
rector of the state Office of
Open Records, says the four
universities are required to dis-
close nothing, zippo under
current law, even though they
receive hundreds of millions of
dollars each year in state
funds. That stands in contrast
for the disclosure requirements
for the most obscure state
agencies or the smallest mu-
nicipal government, not to
mention the 14 state-owned
schools in the Pennsylvania
State System of Higher Educa-
tion, which are fully subject to
the law,
Mutchler
said.
Republican
Gov. Tom
Corbett and
Senate Major-
ity Leader Do-
minic Pileggi,
R-Delaware, both said they
support reviewing the open re-
cords law, which was consid-
ered one of the weakest laws in
the nation until it was
changed. The Right-to-Know
law now assumes that most re-
cords are public, with specific
exemptions, reversing a long-
standing rule requiring resi-
dents to prove why records
were public when they request-
ed them.
Pileggi said Friday that he
wants to review our entire sys-
tem of open records as it per-
tains to our state-related uni-
versities. Corbetts spokes-
man, Kevin Harley, said the
governor believes it is time to
examine whether (Penn State)
should be subject to broad ex-
emptions of the Right-to-Know
Law.
Blake said he has been con-
sidering changes to the statute
since his days as a senior Ren-
dell administration official in
the state Department of Com-
munity and Economic Devel-
opment, which includes the Of-
fice of Open Records, but the
scandal at Penn State has put
new emphasis on those efforts.
Certainly, a higher level of
scrutiny could have revealed
something and allowed for ear-
lier detection in the case, he
said.
Officials at the schools have
argued in favor of the exemp-
tion because they are quasi-
public institutions, receiving a
mix of private and public mon-
ey. Spanier and other officials
have said that including the
universities in the law would
discourage donors who wish to
remain anonymous and could
raise intellectual property is-
sues, among other concerns.

trol resulting from the child sex
abuse allegations against Joe Pa-
ternos former assistant coach, Jer-
ry Sandusky. The evening before,
Syracuse placed basketball coach
Jim Boeheims top assistant, Ber-
nie Fine, on leave after old allega-
tions resurfaced that he molested
two former ballboys. Sandusky
and Fine each have denied the ac-
cusations against them.
In his letter to Penn State,
NCAApresident MarkEmmert re-
statedamessagethat schoolshave
beenreceivingsimplybywatching
the news.
It is critical that each campus
and the NCAA as an Association
re-examine how we constrain or
encourage behaviors that lift up
young people rather than making
themvictims, Emmert wrote.
Earlier this week at Michigan,
President Mary Sue Coleman
wrote an open letter to the univer-
sity community reminding people
tocall 911orthepolicedepartment
if they see a crime in progress.
Thisisachancetoremindonean-
other that a communitys values
are lived out in the actions of each
of us as individuals, she wrote.
At St. Johns, athletic director
Chris Monasch said the incidents
offered a good opportunity to em-
phasize to staffers that if there is
an issue thats inappropriate you
have to deal with it immediately.
A cover-up only makes it more
severe, Monaschsaid. Certainly,
we do background checks on the
people we hire for summer camps
and those types of things. Were
trying to take precautions, but I
dont know how you can prepare
for some of those things.
At NorthCarolinaState, athletic
director Debbie Yowasks athletes
to anonymously complete a thor-
ough survey that includes a ques-
tionaskingif anathleticstaff mem-
ber ever engaged in inappropriate
contact.
I think inthis case it was some-
thing that was so new, a new type
of allegation, Yow said. Youre
used to someone saying players
are gambling or theres alcohol
abuse or there was a fight in the
parking deck or any number of
things like that an NCAAviola-
tion, extra benefits. Thelist is very
long that we know about and we
try to protect against. This was a
new type of issue I dont believe
that was on the radar of athletics
administrators.
John Burness, the former long-
timevicepresident of publicaffairs
at Duke, said there could be a
safety in numbers, element for
victims who keep details of their
abuse quiet, but suddenly see a
chance to seek justice.
Im not surprised, nor would I
be surprised, if we saw people
coming forward nowto make alle-
gations, Burness said. Becauseit
could be more comfortable to do
so. That shouldnt be discouraged.
It should be encouraged. At the
same time, we have to realize that
every allegation is not necessarily
true.
At a couple of smaller schools
where sports arent as big a focus,
leaders nevertheless used the lat-
est episodes to put a sharper point
on their reporting policies.
We all need an immediate real-
ity check, Southern Baptist The-
ological Seminary president R. Al-
bert Mohler Jr., wrote in a letter
first reported by The Chronicle of
Higher Education.

PHILADELPHIA The new
president of a charity founded
by a former Penn State assistant
football coach accused of mo-
lesting young boys said Friday
the organization is looking at
three options for its future and
may not close.
David Woodle, who was
named president of The Second
Mile this week after longtime
leader Jack Raykovitz resigned,
told The Patriot-News newspa-
per of Harrisburg that the orga-
nization was exploring how it
could stay open and keep serv-
ing children.
No decision has been made,
he told the newspaper in a re-
port posted on its website Fri-
day after The New York Times
reported that the charity was set
to be closed down, its programs
folded into other nonprofit orga-
nizations.
Woodle did not reply to mess-
ages from The Associated Press,
and phone calls to several board
members rang unanswered Fri-
day night.
The charity was founded in
1977 by Jerry Sandusky, who re-
tired from Penn State in 1999.
Sandusky, 67, was charged
this month with molesting eight
boys over a 15-year period in a
scandal that rocked the Penn
State campus in State College.
Authorities say some assaults
happened on the campus and
were reported to administrators
but not to police.
Sandusky has said he is in-
nocent. He has acknowledged
he showered with boys but said
he never molested them.
Woodle was quoted by the
Times earlier Friday as saying
that the charity was working
hard to figure out how the pro-
grams can survive this event.
We arent protective of this
organization that it survives at
all costs, he said.
He told The Patriot-News that
The Second Miles options in-
clude having the programs con-
tinue, transferring them to an-
other charity and closing.
We hope (option No. 3)
doesnt happen, Woodle told
The Patriot-News. Were only
into this four days. Were figur-
ing out whats viable.
But Lynne Abraham, a former
Philadelphia district attorney
hired by The Second Mile, said
the damage to the charity might
be irreparable.
Sanduskys Second Mile may not close
New president of the charity
is looking at options for it to
remain open.

Students complete clinical hours in a
facility of their choosing, pending facul-
ty approval. Successful completion of
the program leads to a masters degree
with a major in nursing with adult
nurse practitioner concentration. Stu-
dents will be eligible to sit for national
certification exams.
A16-credit adult nurse practitioner
post graduate certificate program is
also available for advanced-practice
nurses already holding a masters de-

WILKES-BARRE In the polarized
debate surrounding development of the
Marcellus Shale, where supporting ei-
ther the gas companies or their environ-
mentalist opponents risks attack from
the other side, Seamus McGraw seems
a rare figure: a man who wants to stand
in the middle.
McGraw, a Monroe County native,
has written a book titled The End of
Country, about natural gas drilling and
its consequences in and around Di-
mock, Susquehanna County.
The Institute for Energy and Environ-
mental Research invited McGraw to
speak at Wilkes University Saturday
and offer his perspective on the emer-
gent gas industrys presence in Pennsyl-
vania and the debate it has stirred.
McGraw said he doesnt view the gas
companies, as their opponents have de-
picted them, as moustache-twirling in-
dustrial barons quibbling about straws
and milkshakes. Nor does he see the in-
dustry in its self-styled guise of the flag-
brandishing
Local author Seamus McGraw speaks at Wilkes University Saturday morning
about the impacts of natural gas drilling on rural Pennsylvania, which he wrote
about in his book, The End of Country.
Taking a view from the middle
in the debate over natural gas
Seamus McGraw says hes not
against drilling per se. He wants
energy independence.

The Luzerne County Public De-
fenders office has made dramatic im-
provements in representing juve-
niles since the release of a state report
that heavily criticized the office, one
of the attorneys who
evaluated shortcom-
ings within the sys-
tem said.
Robert Listenbee, a
member of the Inter-
branch Commission
on Juvenile Justice,
said the creation of a
special juvenile de-
fenders unit within the Public De-
fenders office has resulted in signif-
icant changes that have put it on path
to become a model for the state.
There have been dramatic im-
provements in the unit since the In-
terbranch Commission report was is-
sued, Listenbee said. They are a ve-
ry engaging and very committed as a
group. I think they are off to a really,
really good start.
The juvenile unit was recently
awarded a two-year, $158,000 grant
by the Pennsylvania Commission on
Crime and Delinquency that has al-
lowed it to further expand services,
said Chief Public Defender Al Flora,
who runs the unit along with attorney
Cheryl Sobeski-Reedy.
Luzerne County beat out two other
counties was among four counties
who competed for the grant, said
Mike Pennington, director of the Of-
fice of Juvenile Justice and Delin-
quency Prevention for PCCD.

NEW HAVEN, CONN.
1 dies during tailgating
A
driver of a U-Haul truck
carrying beer kegs through
a tailgating area before the Yale-
Harvard game Saturday sudden-
ly accelerated, fatally striking a
30-year-old Massachusetts wom-
an and injuring two other wom-
en, police said.
Its not clear why the driver
sped up, New Haven Police
spokesman David Hartman said.
The truck then crashed into
other U-Haul vans in the lot, an
open playing field used for pre-
game tailgating parties before
Yale home games in New
Haven.
Hartman said the driver was
in police custody.
He said the woman who was
killed was pronounced dead at
about 10:15 a.m. at Yale-New
Haven Hospital. Police did not
immediately release her identi-
ty.

OUIDAH, BENIN
Pope unveils treatise
In a basilica built in the birth-
place of Africas Voodoo religion
in Benin, Pope Benedict XVI on
Saturday unveiled a treatise
outlining the role of the Cathol-
ic Church on the continent and
explained how Catholicism can
help address Africas chronic
wars and interact with indige-
nous practices.
Among the messages the
pope is bringing to Africa is that
Catholicism has evolved from
the religion practiced by the
missionaries who first brought
the church to this coastal town,
considered the cradle of Voo-
doo, a state religion in Benin
alongside Christianity and Is-
lam.
WASHINGTON
Impersonator fools AP
An Associated Press reporter
mistook an impersonator of
actor Christopher Walken on a
sports-talk radio program Friday
for Walken himself, leading the
news cooperative to include
comments mistakenly attributed
to the actor in its coverage of
the Natalie Wood death investi-
gation.
The AP corrected the story
about an hour later and told its
members not to use the in-
correct information.
The radio station, Washing-
ton, D.C.-based ESPN 980, in-
formed the AP that the Walken
impersonator appears weekly to
discuss sports-related topics for
a humorous segment. Walken
has a distinctive, staccato style
of speaking.
Walken was sharing a yacht
with Wood and her husband,
actor Robert Wagner, when the
actress drowned on Nov. 29,
1981.
During Fridays appearance,
co-host Kevin Sheehan asked
impersonator Marc Sterne
about the Wood case. Sterne,
impersonating Walken, re-
marked: We had a lot to drink
that night. There was Sambuca.
There was shouting. And then
there was tragedy. And thats all
I can remember.
The Walken impersonator
added that he went to bed after
reading one of the Hardy Boys
novels and awoke to learn that
Wood was dead.

ZINTAN, Libya Moammar
Gadhafis former heir apparent
Seif al-Islamwas capturedbyrev-
olutionary fighters in the south-
ern desert Saturday just over a
monthafter his father was killed,
setting off joyous celebrations
across Libya and closing the
door on the possibility that the
fugitive son could stoke further
insurrection.
Seif al-Islamwhohas under-
gone a transformation from a
voice of reform in an eccentric
and reviled regime to one of In-
terpols most-wanted now
faces the prospect of trial before
an international or Libyan court
to answer for the alleged crimes
of his late fathers four-decade
rule over the oil-rich North Afri-
can nation.
Thunderous celebratory gun-
fire shook the Libyan capital of
Tripoli and other cities after Li-
byan officials said Seif al-Islam,
who has been charged by the In-
ternational Criminal Court for
crimes against humanity, had
beendetainedabout 30miles (50
kilometers) west of the town of
Obari inanarea that borders Nig-
er, Mali and Algeria.
A photograph was widely cir-
culated showing the 39-year-old
son in custody, sitting by a bed
and holding up three bandaged
fingers as a guard looks on, al-
though Osama Juwaid, a spokes-
man for the fighters from Zintan
who made the arrest, said it was
an old injury caused by a NATO
airstrike and the detainee was
otherwise in good health.
I am hopeful that the capture
of Gadhafis son is the beginning
of a chapter of transparency and
democracy and freedom, Li-
byas interimPrime Minister Ab-
durrahim el-Keib at a news con-
ference in the mountain town of
Zintan, where Seif al-Islam was
taken after his capture.
ICC prosecutor Luis Moreno
Ocampo told The Associated
Press that he will travel to Libya
next week for talks with the
countrys transitional govern-
ment on where the trial will take
place. Ocampo said that while
national governments have the
first right to try their own citi-
zens for war crimes, his primary
goal was to ensure Seif al-Islam
has a fair trial.

CAIRO Egyptian riot po-
lice firing tear gas and rubber
bullets stormed into Cairos
Tahrir Square Saturday to dis-
mantle a protest tent camp, set-
ting off clashes that killed two
protesters, injured hundreds
and raised tensions days before
the first elections since Hosni
Mubaraks ouster.
The scenes of protesters
fighting with black-clad police
forces were reminiscent of the
18-day uprising that forced an
end to Mubaraks rule in Febru-
ary. Hundreds of protesters
fought back, hurling stones and
setting an armored police vehi-
cle ablaze.
The violence raised fears of
new unrest surrounding the
parliamentaryelections that are
due to begin on Nov. 28. Public
anger has risen over the slow
pace of reforms andapparent at-
tempts by Egypts ruling gener-
als to retain power over a future
civilian government.
Witnesses said the clashes
began when riot police disman-
tled a small tent camp set up to
commemorate the hundreds of
protesters killed in the uprising
and attacked around 200 peace-
ful demonstrators who had
camped in the square overnight
in an attempt to restart a long-
term sit-in there.
Violence breeds violence,
said Sahar Abdel-Mohsen, an
engineer who joined in the pro-
test after a call went out on
Twitter urging people to come
to Tahrir to defend against the
police attacks. We are tired of
this and we are not leaving the
square.
Police fired rubber bullets,
tear gas and beat protesters
withbatons, clearingthe square
at one point and pushing the
fighting into surrounding side
streets of downtown Cairo.
A 23-year-old protester died
from a gunshot, said Health
Ministry official Mohammed el-
Sherbeni. At least 676 people
were injured, he said. At least
one other protester was killed
in Alexandria, where demon-
strations and clashes also took
place, said a security official,
speaking on condition of ano-
nymity because he was not au-
thorized to talk to journalists.

SAN FRANCISCO The
chancellor of the University of
California, Davis said Saturday
that the school was launching
an investigation after chilling
video images surfaced online
showing an officer using pepper
spray on several protesters as
they sit passively with their
arms interlocked.
The use of the pepper spray
as shown on the video is chill-
ing to us all and raises many
questions about how best to
handle situations like this,
Chancellor Linda Katehi said in
a message posted on the
schools web site.
Katehi said she is forming a
task force comprised of faculty,
students and staff to review the
events surrounding the Friday
protest and the police response.
While the university is trying
to ensure the safety and health
of all members of our communi-
ty, we must ensure our strate-
gies to gain compliance are fair
and reasonable and do not lead
to mistreatment, her message
went on to say.
In the video, posted on You-
Tube and widely circulated on-
line, the officer displays a bottle
before spraying its contents on
the seated protesters in a sweep-
ing motion while walking back
and forth. Most of the protesters
have their heads down, but at
least one is hit in the face.
Some members of a crowd
gathered at the scene scream
and cry out. The crowd then
chants, Shame on You, as the
protesters on the ground are led
away. The officers retreat min-
utes later with helmets on and
batons drawn.
Its not clear from the video
what agency the officer who
used the pepper spray repre-
sents. Officers from UC Davis
and other UC campuses as well
as the city of Davis responded
to the protest, according to An-
nette Spicuzza, UC Davis police
chief. Davis is about 80 miles
north of San Francisco.

KABUL, Afghanistan Presi-
dent Hamid Karzai received a re-
sounding endorsement Saturday
from a traditional national as-
sembly to negotiate a security
agreement that could keep a U.S.
military presence in Afghanistan
past 2014, when most interna-
tional forces are to have left. The
size of the force is subject to ne-
gotiations but a future deal could
keep thousands of American
troops here for years.
The nonbinding resolution is-
sued at the end of a Loya Jirga as-
sembly alsosuggestedsome con-
ditions for the talks between Af-
ghan and American officials, in-
cluding an end to unpopular
night raids by military forces
searching for insurgents.
The more than 2,000 people
who attended the four-day meet-
ing asked Karzai to ensure the
United States hands over all de-
tainees to Afghan custody and
limits any agreement to10 years.
They also said the future pact
must be approvedby parliament.
We will act on the basis of
your consultation, Karzai told
the assembled delegates.
I amvery happy that youhave
accepted it and have put lots of
conditions on it. I accept this res-
olution. It is the instruction to
the Afghan government fromthe
Afghan people.
As part of a future deal, both
sides envision a force of several
thousand U.S. troops, who
would train Afghan forces and
helpwithcounterterrorismoper-
ations. The pact would outline
the legal status of that force inAf-
ghanistan, rules under which it
would operate and where it
would be based.

The couple, married nine
months at the time, felt fortunate
he had made it home in one
piece. They knew nothing about
the invisible wounds that had
been inflicted upon his shattered
psyche.
The full extent of the damage
would not be known until years
later, when an increasingly irra-
tional, hostile and depressed Las-
kowski was diagnosed with post-
traumatic stress disorder, a debil-
itating psychological condition
brought on by witnessing or ex-
periencing a traumatic event.
Common affliction
The Department of Veterans
Affairs estimates that up 20 per-
cent of the 2.1millionsoldiers de-
ployed to Iraq and Afghanistan
since 2001 will be afflicted by
PTSD or some other mental
health condition related to their
service.
The degree and symptoms of
PTSDvarybut aregenerallychar-
acterized by depression, fear of
crowds, hyper-alertness, agita-
tion, nightmares and flashbacks.
For the Laskowskis, Stanleys
diagnosis was a blessing and a
curse.
They were relieved to finally
have an explanation for his bi-
zarre behavior.
Why, they had wondered,
would he jump up and fly into a
rage when one of their children
dropped a toy on the hardwood
floors, creating a bang?
Why would he suddenly envi-
sion himself driving a Humvee in
Iraq when in reality he was inside
his Ford Taurus on the Cross Val-
ley Expressway?
And why would that dead Iraqi
soldier not allow let him to sleep
in peace?
Those are classic symptoms of
PTSD, the couple learned. Once
he was diagnosed, they set out to
do whatever was needed to get
him fixed.
But their efforts toobtaineffec-
tive treatment would turn into a
nightmare of its own.
Deployed in 2003
Sgt. Stanley Laskowski arrived
in Kuwait with the 3rd Battalion,
5th Marines, 1st Marine Division
in February 2003.
The unit was among the first
wave of Marines to invade Iraq.
At first, Laskowskis unit,
tasked with invading Baghdad,
saw little combat. That changed
the afternoon of March 26, 2003,
when his platoon was ambushed
in a brief but intense attack on a
highway.
It was the 25-year-olds first
taste of combat, and it would
havebeenhis last, if not for fellow
Marine Jared McNerney.
Standing a few arm lengths
apart, Laskowski and McNerney
were advancing toward the ene-
my. As they worked through the
hail of bullets, Laskowski looked
to his side to locate his comrades
positions.
He didnt see the Iraqi soldier
on the ground behind a sand pile.
He was about to roll over and
put one in my head when McNer-
ney shot him, Laskowski said.
Two weeks later, the platoon
had advanced within 20 miles of
Baghdad when they encountered
another fierce battle.
We heard shots from all
around. It was hardtodistinguish
where the bullets were coming
from, he said.
Minutes into the firefight, an
Iraqi soldier popped up from be-
hind a bush and fatally shot Las-
kowskis friend, 22-year-old Cpl.
Eric Sylva, as he stood just 15 to
20 feet away.
The battles weighedheavily on
Laskowski, but tothis day he can-
not say if they caused his PTSD.
Certain things bothered me
more than others, but I cant say
this one incident did it, he said.
Its more about the whole way
your mind starts to think while
you are over there.
Throughout his tour, he per-
formed with valor and courage,
as reflected in reports issued by
several of his commanding offi-
cers who described him as a
highly effective combat leader
whowas amongthe most valued
and respected in the company.
For his efforts, he was awarded
the Navy and Marine Corps
Achievement Medal, Marine
Corps Good Conduct Medal, the
Combat Action Ribbon and sev-
eral others.
He returned to the United
States with plans to continue to
build his life with his wife and
children. They had no idea that
once he finished fighting the ene-
my in Iraq, he would face another
war at home.
This time, the enemy would be
him.
Uneasy feeling
It was supposed to be one of
the happiest days of Stanley and
Marisol Laskowskis lives as they
gathered with family and friends
at a party to celebrate his return.
There was food, handshakes
and backslapping as dozens of
guests greetedandcongratulated
him for his service.
On the outside, Laskowski was
all smiles. No one sensed the fear
inside.
It starts so subtle that you al-
most dont notice it, Laskowski
said. I just didnt feel comfort-
able about so many people in one
place.
He shrugged off the feelings as
post-deployment jitters.
A few months ago I was in a
place where if you saw a huge
crowd, something had already
happened or was about to hap-
pen. I thought its just residual
stuff. It will work its way out in
time.
Shortly after the party, the Las-
kowskis returned to South Car-
olinawhereStanley, whowas still
in the Marines, was a rifle in-
structor at the Parris Islandtrain-
ing base. He remainedat the base
for four more years, working his
way up to chief rifle instructor.
Symptoms of PTSDfirst began
tomanifest while he was at Parris
Island, but they were relatively
mild, he said. He was uneasy be-
ing around people and occasion-
ally had a nightmare, but the
symptoms were manageable.
Im thinking, again, its leftover
stuff and will process its way out.
Maybe I was always this way and
I just never noticedit. Youkindof
rationalize things like theres
nothing really wrong with me.
In 2007 he took a new path in
life. He was discharged from the
Marines and moved back to the
Scranton area, where his extend-
edfamilylived. He landeda jobas
a salesman of financial products.
Life was looking up, but his
mental state was about to spiral
out of control.
Trigger for PTSD
Researchers say significant
changes in life, particularly those
that cause increased stress, are
often a trigger for PTSD.
After the family relocated, Las-
kowski grew increasingly para-
noid and agitated. Even the most
ordinary acts drew his suspicion.
That guy on the street corner
I gotta watch him. Hes got a
loose shirt so he could be carry-
ing a weapon, Laskowski said.
That vehicle that just drove by
why was that guy looking at us?
The nightmares continued to
escalate in intensity and frequen-
cy, sometimes occurring three or
four times a week.
Id wake up and feel like Im
back there again, Laskowski
said. My brain is thinking, we
have to find the enemy. Id grab a
baseball bat or golf club next to
the bed and walk through the
house to make sure nobody is
there.
Sometimes he would not sleep
for three days. He developed
mood swings and became in-
creasingly irrational.
Id be in the house and one of
the kids would drop a toy in the
kitchen. Id hear a loud bang and
immediately Id want to dive off
my chair and hit the floor, think-
ing of how I can flank the enemy
thats in my kitchen, he said.
In a matter of 3 seconds, of
course, I realize where I am and
whats going on. Then Im angry.
Why am I doing this? Why am I
acting like a lunatic?
And then there were the flash-
backs.
They were becoming down-
right scary, Laskowski said. Id
be driving somewhere. All of a
sudden something will set me off
and for a fewseconds Imdriving
a Humvee in the middle of Iraq. I
come back, and Im in my Ford
Taurus on the Kingston express-
way.
Perhaps most disturbing was
the cache of weapons he had
stashed throughout the home
and the targets he had placed on
every door set to the height of
anaverage manso that hedknow
howhighto aimto shoot through
the door if an intruder tried to
break in.
Thedepressionandanxietyled
him to begin abusing alcohol,
and, later, the painkiller Vicodin,
which he obtained illegally on
the street.
By then Marisol had reached
her breaking point. How, she
wondered, could the loving and
caring father and husband she
once knew have turned into this
crazy guy?
She had always been proud of
her husbands service in Iraq, but
now she was seeing it in a new
light.
When he decided to re-enlist,
thats what I signed up for, so I
was OK. I didnt know this was
coming, she said, choking back
tears. I didnt know I was going
toget backa different guy, a scary
guy that wasnt him anymore.
Finally, in April 2007 Marisol
convinced him to seek help.
We were arguing and the kids
were seeing him like that
punching walls, punching the tel-
evision, she said. You dont live
ina house full of weapons andtar-
gets on the doors. Thats not a
normal life. I was afraid of what
could happen.
He made an appointment with
the Department of Veterans Af-
fairs Medical Center in Plains
Township. The medical staff im-
mediately suspected PTSD.
Its what the VA did next, or,
Laskowski says, what it didnt do,
that led to the next crisis.
Medications prescribed
The medical staff at the VAim-
mediately prescribed medica-
tions, including anti-anxiety
drugs and anti-depressants. He
was reluctant to take the drugs,
but agreed.I said, is this really
necessary? I just want to talk to
someone. Isnt there anyone I can
talk to? Laskowski said. They
said that will come later. Youre
going to take these for now.
Theyregoingtohelpyoufeel bet-
ter.
But things only worsened. He
began drinking even more heavi-
ly and abusing Vicodin.
The couple said they both re-
peatedly called the VA to advise
them that Stanley was getting
progressively worse. The re-
sponse was to alter his medica-
tion, but no counseling was pro-
vided.
Marisol watched helplessly as
he continued to unravel. At one
point she decided she and the
children had to get out.
Id look at him, and I would be
afraid. I would think what hap-
penedtohim? Whats wrongwith
him? And then Im thinking to
myself, whats wrong with me?
What the hell am I doing here
with him?
She called the VA once again,
pleading withthe medical staff to
take some action to help him.
I wanted someone to know I
was leaving him. I was afraid if I
left himand no one knewI wasnt
there, he was going to go off and
do something and hurt some-
body, she said.
He was a ticking time bomb,
and he was about to explode.
Im begging these people, do
something for me. Help me out,
Stanley Laskowski said. Imask-
ing them the only way I know
how to help me, but that never
came. Then I find myself in a
pharmacy one night.
Pharmacy break-in
The early morning of Aug. 13,
2007, Laskowski left behind his
life as a decoratedIraqi war veter-
an and became a criminal.
Shortly after 3 a.m. he drove to
a pharmacy in Olyphant,
smashed the windowwith a rock
and grabbed handfuls of opiate
painkillers andanti-anxiety med-
ications.
Four years following his arrest,
he still struggles to understand
and explain what happened that
night.
He hadrunout of Vicodinearli-
er that day and went out that eve-
ning in search of more. But he
had no intent to burglarize a
pharmacy, he said.
He recalls driving to the area,
making his way through back
yards, setting up reconnais-
sance of the building, then
breaking the window and enter-
ing.
What he cant explain is why.
He was caught after a police of-
ficer saw his vehicle in the area
and became suspicious. Marisol
got the call around 7 the next
morning.
The arrest was a crushing blow
toher. She nowwas not onlydeal-
ing with a mentally ill husband,
but a mentally ill husband who
was in jail.
Stanley lost his job, and it
seemed that all hope was lost as
well.
His arrest, however, turnedout
to be the catalyst that finally
helped him get the treatment he
needed.
Counseling obtained
It was clear to Laskowski and
his family that he needed inten-
sive inpatient therapy. The VA
hospital in Plains Township re-
fused to accept him, however, be-
cause of the criminal charges,
Laskowski said.
His attorney, Patrick Casey of
Scranton, reached out to the VA
hospital in Coatesville 150 miles
away, which agreed to take custo-
dy of him.
He entered a 10-week counsel-
ing programthat dealt specifical-
ly with PTSD. Finally, he got
what hedbeenasking for some-
one to talk to. He began to learn
how to deal with the trauma he
experienced in Iraq. That led to
an immediate lessening of his
PTSD symptoms.
All the things that happened
over there, you try not to think
about them. You push them
down. Yougototherapy, andnow
youre talking about that stuff,
he said.
Its kind of like an emotional
numbing. The more you talk
about it, the more you can talk
about it and the more it becomes
OK to talk about it. Before that,
youre thinking I cant talk about
this, ever.
The VA has acknowledged the
depth of Laskowskis condition.
He was declared to be 100 per-
cent disabled as a result of his
PTSD and receives a monthly
disability pension of roughly
$3,100.
The criminal case against Las-
kowski concluded in May 2008.
Aware of his diagnosis of PTSD,
Lackawanna County prosecutors
allowed him to plead guilty to a
reduced charge of drug posses-
sion. He was sentenced to two
years probation through a first-
time offenders program that al-
lowed him to get his record ex-
punged.
Following his discharge from
Coatesville, he continued indi-
vidual counseling with a private
counselor.
Today he only has one or two
nightmares every few months.
He still gets unusually startled if
his children drop a toy, but he no
longer dives for cover.
And the arsenal of weapons he
stashed in his house is gone.
But that sense of anxiety
aroundpeople still remains. With
Marisols urging and support, he
can occasionally go to a restau-
rant in off-peak hours when not
so many people are there.
And then theres that ritual the
family goes through each time
they return from a trip.
He has to come in the house
first and make sure its OKfor ev-
eryone else before we can get out
of the car, Marisol said.
They have learned to take
those issues in stride, and even
attempt to find humor in some
situations like the time she
woke him from a dream in which
he was firing mortars at the
neighbors house.
Most wives, if they go to wake
up their husband and he says Im
firing mortars at the house down
the road, theyd be like, what are
you talking about? Laskowski
said. Shes like, OK, stop with
the mortars and get up.
Its been a long, arduous road
back to mental health a journey
Laskowski said would not have
been possible had his wife not
stood by him.
There were a several times Ma-
risol agonized over leaving him,
she said. But her love and devo-
tion wouldnt let her give up on
him or that sliver of hope that
some day she would get back the
man she married.
I still have that hope, but Ive
come tothe realizationthat thats
probably not going to happen,
she said. I love him. Ive just
come to accept it.
Bitterness lingers
While the couple is grateful for
the help he received at the Coa-
tesville VA, they remain bitter
that help did not come sooner.
In 2010 they filed a multimil-
lion-dollar federal lawsuit
against the Department of Veter-
ans Affairs, alleging Stanley had
received substandard care at the
Plains Township VA that led to
the progression of his PTSD.
Vince Riccardo, spokesman for
the medical center, said he could
not comment on the suit, citing
the VAs policy to not comment
on pending litigation.
The case is in the final pre-trial
stages and is expected to go to
trial soon. The Laskowskis hope
to recover significant damages
for emotional trauma, as well as
lost wages.
Equally important, they say, is
their hope that his case will lead
to changes in how the VA treats
vets suffering from PTSD.
There are a lot of us walking
around, guys like me who think
its just something in my head
and will work its way out, Las-
kowski said. I feel like someone
dropped the ball with me If
somebody else goes up there and
says, Is there someone I can talk
to? I want to make sure that guy
gets to talk to someone.

the painkiller, Vicodin?
Or was it a plea for help
from a veteran tormented by
memories of war, who acted
in desperation after his at-
tempts to obtain mental
health counseling were ig-
nored?
Thats the question a federal
judge must answer as he con-
siders a $10 million medical
malpractice lawsuit Laskowski
and his wife, Marisol, filed
against the Department of
Veterans Affairs relating to his
treatment at its medical cen-
ter in Plains Township.
The lawsuit, filed last year,
alleges medical professionals
botched the mental health
treatment provided to Laskow-
ski after he was diagnosed in
April 2007 with post-traumatic
stress disorder, a psycholog-
ical condition that results
from experiencing a severe
traumatic event. The most
common symptoms include
fear of crowds, nightmares,
flashbacks and mood swings.
Similar lawsuits
The suit is the latest in a
growing number of actions
nationwide that have been
filed against the Department
of Veterans Affairs for alleged-
ly providing substandard care
to veterans suffering PTSD.
In 2009 the VA agreed to
pay $350,000 to settle a law-
suit filed by the family of
Jeffrey Lucey of Massachu-
setts, who committed suicide
after he became increasingly
despondent over failed efforts
to treat him for his mental
health problems.
Attorney Cristobal Bonifaz
of Conway, Mass., who repre-
sented Luceys family, said his
case paved the way for other
suits because it defined the
legal basis upon which a fam-
ily or soldier could seek to
recover damages.
Under federal law, the U.S.
government is immune from
lawsuits relating to injuries a
soldier suffered during com-
bat, Bonifaz said.
The focus of the case was
not what happened in Iraq,
but what happened here,
Bonifaz said. I was not claim-
ing damages for the PTSD
itself. That was caused by the
war. I was saying he had
PTSD and the VA had a duty
to treat him and they didnt.
Thats the key issue in Las-
kowskis case.
Laskowski, 33, of Carbon-
dale, has been declared 100
percent disabled as a result of
his PTSD, which resulted
from his experiences during a
5-month tour of duty in Iraq
in 2003.
Laskowski was seen at the
VAs medical center in Plains
Township from April to Au-
gust 2007, when he was ar-
rested. In that entire time he
was given only medications
and never provided any coun-
seling, according to the law-
suit filed by attorney Dan
Brier of Myers, Brier and
Kelly in Scranton.
Lawsuit allegations
The lawsuit contends the
lack of proper care caused
Laskowskis PTSD to progress
unabated. That led him to self
medicate with alcohol and
drugs. His break-in at an Oly-
phant pharmacy was a desper-
ate attempt to obtain drugs he
believed would relieve his
symptoms.
The key legal issue in the
case, which will be heard in a
non-jury trial, is whether the
VAs alleged negligence was a
direct and proximate cause of
the injuries Laskowski claims
to have suffered, which in-
clude mental anguish, past
and future lost earnings and
medical expenses.
A psychological expert for
the VA has acknowledged the
care provided to Laskowski
fell below expected medical
standards, according to court
documents filed in the case.
Vince Riccardo, spokesman
for the VA, declined comment
on the suit, citing the hospi-
tals policy not to discuss
pending litigation.
In court records, the VA has
denied liability, arguing there
was no way medical staff there
could foresee that Laskowski
would commit a crime.
The VA also contends Las-
kowski initially downplayed
the severity of his symptoms
to medical staff. In a pre-trial
memorandum, Assistant U.S.
Attorney Michael Thiel said
Laskowski admitted he first
experienced PTSD symptoms
shortly after he returned from
Iraq, but didnt seek treatment
until 2007 out of fear the
stigma could impact his mil-
itary career.
Theres also a legal dispute
over whether Laskowski is
barred from seeking damages
because his alleged injuries
were caused by his own action
in burglarizing the pharmacy.
Brier said the VA has placed
too much emphasis on the
burglary. The issue, he said, is
not so much the crime Las-
kowski committed, but what
caused him to commit the
crime.
The incident at the phar-
macy was a dramatic manifes-
tation of his mistreated
PTSD, Brier said. If he had
received the care he was entit-
led to from the VA, he would
not be 100 percent disabled
today and he would not have
resorted to painkillers to avoid
the emotional horrors of his
combat-related PTSD.
SUIT
PHOTO COURTESY OF THE BALTIMORE SUN/JOHN MAKELY
Marines in Sgt. Stanley Laskowskis unit look over a hill during a battle near Al Muhaydi As
Salih, Iraq in April 2003. One of Laskowskis friends was killed in the battle.
If he had received the care he was entitled to
from the VA, he would not be 100 percent dis-
abled today...
Dan Brier
Laskowskis lawyer
Its residual stuff fromthe war. It
will pass.
Former Marine Sgt. Stanley
Laskowski cant count the number
of times he said those words to
himself as he tried to make sense of
the anxiety, flashbacks and depres-
sion that plagued himupon his
return froma tour of duty in Iraq in
2003.
Laskowski, 33, had heard the
termpost-traumatic stress disorder
many times. But surely, that
couldnt be what he had. That only
afflicts weak-minded people, those
looking to get out of doing stuff,
he thought.
Its a common perception among
the general public and those serving
in the military, leading many of
those who are afflicted with the
mental condition to avoid seeking
treatment, say experts who treat the
disorder.
The Department of Veterans
Affairs estimates that up to 30 per-
cent of Vietnamveterans and 20
percent of veterans who served in
Iraq and Afghanistan currently
suffer or will develop PTSD. Yet
studies reveal that as many as two-
thirds of those veterans are not
receiving treatment, according to a
report by Military Pathways, a
nonprofit organization that provides
mental health assessment services
to military personnel.
There is an element of pull
yourself up by your bootstraps, said
Dr. Joseph Boscarino, a social psy-
chologist at the Center for Health
Research at Geisinger Clinic in
Danville, who is an expert in PTSD.
You have to soldier on and suck it
up. Its part of the job and your
identity, and you take pride in it.
For most people, symptoms of
PTSDdevelop within a fewmonths
of the traumatic event, but the
condition is also known to lie dor-
mant for years, Boscarino said.
A study of World Trade Center
responders showed some people
didnt develop PTSDuntil a year or
two after, he said. The memories
go back into the unconscious and
stay there. When there is a big
change in your environment or you
get more stress, it doesnt have to
be traumatic stress, it manifests
itself.
Laskowski, of Carbondale, no-
ticed something was wrong shortly
after he finished his tour of duty in
July 2003. He was extremely edgy
around people and began experi-
encing nightmares.
As time went on, his symptoms
got progressively worse, coming to
a head in 2007 after he was dis-
charged fromthe military and
moved his family fromSouth Car-
olina to the Scranton area.
The circumstances surrounding
service in Iraq and Afghanistan,
including multiple deployments, the
inability to identify the enemy, lack
of real safe zones and the inad-
vertent killing of innocent civilians,
make veterans of those conflicts
particularly prone to develop PTSD,
researchers say.
Yet despite significant research,
the mental health community still
doesnt fully understand why some
people who have experienced trau-
ma develop the disorder, and others
dont.
Research has shown those with
pre-existing mental conditions, such
as depression and substance abuse,
and those who experienced trauma
earlier in life or have a family histo-
ry of mental illness are more prone
to develop PTSD.
We are finding that people who
get post traumatic stress disorder
tend to have a lot of risk factors
before deployment. Their deploy-
ment triggers the onset of symp-
toms, Boscarino said.
In most cases, symptoms typical-
ly last for several months. But oth-
ers will be afflicted for years, and
possibly the rest of their lives.
Laskowski has had to come to
terms with that reality.
He is continuing to receive coun-
seling for his symptoms and has
made significant progress. But hes
been told its unlikely he will ever
fully recover.
I had thought that, if Imon my
medications and do whatever the
VA told me to do, eventually this is
going to go away, he said. They
set me straight that Improbably
going to have this, at least some
formof it, for the rest of my life. It
was a sobering moment.
Heres what to watch
out for with PTSD

William Geary, the private de-
veloper who took over most of
the retail and theater space from
the chamber, filed for bankrupt-
cy in California and has been
barred from working as a broker
or salesperson for violating the
states real estate code.
A similar property he man-
aged in Florida has been fore-
closed on by lenders, and a
pending civil suit in California
accused him of misappropriat-
ing funds and concealing deals
he made on properties he man-
aged for investors.
Geary did not return a call
seeking comment.
Support for Geary
Still, city and economic devel-
opment officials have stood be-
hind him and blamed the high
vacancy rate on the poor econo-
my, even though others business
owners have ventured into the
same risky environment.
Within walking distance of
the project that starts on South
Main Street and wraps around
to East Northampton Street,
bars and restaurants such as Ca-
f Toscana, Thai Thai and Mulli-
gans Irish Pub opened in spaces
outfitted without the benefit of
state funding.
Mulligans owner Ron Ka-
mionka said he was not ap-
proached by anyone from Uni-
versity Corners.
This was absolutely a wise
investment of public funds to
stimulate positive development
in the city, said Drew
McLaughlin the citys adminis-
trative coordinator in an email
response to inquiries about the
project.
The University Corners pro-

In October 2008, the city ap-

cowboy sowing prosperity and
energy independence in our
quaking frontier towns.
He sees the gas companies as
corporations; machines with the
singular function of making
profit, much the same as any
other company, and said it is in
everyones best interest to view
and treat them that way.
McGraw said gas companies
are developing new technolo-
gies every day that can greatly
reduce the risk of environmen-
tal damage and the industrys
carbon footprint. The problem
is that they arent applying
them, by and large, because
they have no monetary incen-
tive to do so.
They are not motivated by
the better angels of their nature;
they are not, McGraw said.
But we need to use the in-
stincts that theyve got You
appeal to greed.
Doing so could begin with a
severance tax on gas extraction
with a rate that could be re-
duced for companies that em-
ploy green practices like con-
verting their diesel
fleet trucks to run on
cleaner-burning gas
and fashioning stur-
dier gas-well casings.
Though fright-
ened and hesitant,
McGraw said he ulti-
mately supports do-
mestic gas drilling,
mainly because he
doesnt want more
American soldiers to
fight wars defend-
ing someone elses
oil.
Its also important
to remember, he
said, that the worlds non-renew-
able resources are running out
and that global warming is a
real concern, a point he drove
home at the start of his speech
by tossing to the floor a 19.6-
pound bag of coal representing
the energy the average Amer-
ican consumes daily.
There are real perils to de-
veloping the Marcellus, he
said. But when we talk about
risks, we need to view those
risks in context.
Some of his opinions clearly
didnt sit well with
many of roughly the
30 who attended the
lecture, among
them both oppo-
nents and backers of
local drilling.
McGraw held an
hour-long discussion
after reading a chap-
ter from his book,
and some chal-
lenged his asser-
tions and his fig-
ures.
But at the very
least, McGraw gave
the crowd some-
thing to think about, and thats
exactly what the Institute
hoped for in inviting him to
speak, Associate Director Ken
Klemow said.
Our goal is to bring in peo-
ple with different philosophies
on energy and the Marcellus
Shale in the interest of better
educating the public, Klemow
said.
GAS
McGraw said he
doesnt view the
gas companies, as
their opponents
have depicted
them, as mous-
tache-twirling in-
dustrial barons
quibbling about
straws and milk-
shakes.

The Quandel Group Inc. of
Harrisburg was paid $550,321for
contracted work. Borton Lawson
Architecture of Plains Township
was paid $40,721.
Panzitta Enterprises Inc. of
Wilkes-Barre and G.C. Wall Inc.
velopment in2009awarded$13.8
million to 22 projects, including
University Corners, known at
that time as the Northampton
and Main Street mixed-use facil-
ity.
Among the other recipients of
state funds were: Dallas,
$750,000 for Misericordia Uni-
versitys College of Health Sci-
ences; Freeland, $412,315 for
streetscape improvements; and
Wyoming, $799,195 for public
safety projects.
In its application to DCED, the
city said the project is specifical-
ly designed to reknit the frayed
urban fabric of downtown
Wilkes-Barre.
At full occupancy, the Universi-
ty Corners was expected to cre-
ate between 60 and 115 full-time
jobs, the application said.
The downtown Wilkes-Barre
project has a combination of re-
tail and residential components
that have since been sold to sep-
arate owners.
Above the storefronts sit 21
condominiums that make up the
Elevation Lofts on Main devel-
oped and managed by Susque-
hanna Real Estate of York. Eigh-
teen of the lofts have been sold.
Part of the state grant was usedto
soundproof ceilings of the retail
space so that loft residents would
not hear noise of business being
conducted below.
The work on the retail space
began in 2009, and the first of 10
payments made to the city for re-
imbursement to contractors was
made in December of that year.
The last payment was made on
July 29.
The payments totaled
$982,370, and 60 percent of that
went toward completion of the
planned Irish pub.
According to records provided
by the DCED, infrastructure
work on the Irish pub cost
$591,042.
of Wyoming were the other two
contractors onthe project that re-
ceived payments for work done
on other retail space.
In the email comments from
the city, McLaughlin said the
possibility of an Irish pub was
discussed by Geary, but the im-
provements to the space make it
suitable for other tenants.
The city is awaiting the time
when that and the other spaces
are filled, McLaughlin added.
The city has a realistic expec-
tation, he said, that once the
economy completes its recovery,
there will be any number of po-
tential business ventures that
will enhance South Main and
Northampton Streets and build
upon the existing foundation of a
thriving downtown business dis-
trict whether it be restaurant, re-
tail, or other merchant opportu-
nity in University Corners.

The grant allowed the unit,
which consisted of three attor-
neys, an investigator, a social
worker and secretary, to add a
second social worker and to in-
crease the hours of the investi-
gator from part-time to full-
time, making it one the most
comprehensive units in the
state thats dedicated solely to
juveniles, Flora said.
As a member of the Inter-
branch Commission, Listen-
bee had been one of the most
vocal critics of prosecutors
and public defenders who
failed to halt abuses of juve-
niles rights committed by for-
mer judge Mark Ciavarella.
The Commissions report, is-
sued in 2010, laid much blame
on a lack of training of juvenile
defenders.
Thats no longer an issue as
the three attorneys in the
countys juvenile unit have un-
dergone extensive training,
Flora said. They continue to
attend training conferences all
over the country, with the tab
being picked up entirely by
various other grants the unit
has received, he said.
Flora said Luzerne County
has also set itself apart in that
its the only public defenders
office in the state that has two
social workers with masters
degrees.
The social workers are cru-
cial to the process as they eval-
uate the children and their
families to determine the root
cause of the juveniles behav-
ior. They also visit the facili-
ties the county utilizes to help
determine if it is the best facil-
ity to meet a particular childs
needs.
Most recently the unit de-
veloped a mentoring program
that pairs at-risk juveniles
with students fromKings Col-
lege.
The program focuses on ju-
veniles who have behavioral is-
sues, but who have not yet
committed any criminal of-
fense, from entering the juve-
nile justice system, Sobeski-
Reedy said.
Going to court is very trau-
matic for kids. It should be a
last resort, Sobeski-Reedy
said. This program gives par-
ents and teachers another
choice than sending a kid into
the juvenile justice system.
Listenbee said hes im-
pressed by the changes and
continuing efforts the county
is making to improve.
Things are going extremely
well. Its too early to conclude
that theyve become a model
for the state, but they are cer-
tainly making progress in that
direction, he said.
REFORMS
Flora Sobeski-Reedy
said Pat Millo.
But Doug and Lisa Lyons of
Mackeyville didnt knowabout it.
The couple was at the casino
celebrating the second anniver-
sary of their wedding on Nov. 21.
Were big Cake Boss fans,
said Lisa Lyons after posing next
to the cake with her husband.
We were surprised when they
said this was gonna be here, he
added.
The casino has been drawing
people fromnear and far, like the
Lyonses, who live near Lock
Haven in Central Pennsylvania.
Its evolved since it first opened
with slot machines and horse rac-
ing to include table games, res-
taurants, bars and shops, said
Bobby Soper, president and chief
executive officer of the casino.
Its become a destination,
said Soper.
The complex could undergo
further change with the addition
of a hotel and conference center
planned for the site, he said.

"I come out every year and ev-
ery year it gets bigger," said Ted
Stanislau of Hanover Township,
who came with his two balloon-
toting toddlers.
"This is an event my kids really
love. It puts you in the holiday
mood."
Thedowntownareawas ablaze
with holiday spirit as shop win-
dows adorned with Christmas
motifs enticed the crowds to be-
gin their Christmas shopping in
earnest. Peddlers pushed carts
overflowing with colorful chil-
drens trinkets and holiday mer-
chandise along the parade route
and a number of downtown busi-
ness owners joined the celebra-
tion by offering their fare at side-
walk stands along South Main
Street.
This years parade featured
marching bands from Meyers,
Coughlin and GAR high schools
as well as a number of dance
troupes and local emergency re-
sponders. Children along the
route scrambled for the candy
and treats strewn from the pass-
ing holiday-themed floats.
"The economys really de-
pressed right now," said one
young father, kneeling next to his
daughters stroller. "Its nice that
we can come together to forget
our troubles for a little while and
just enjoy the meaning of Christ-
mas. I mean, who doesnt love
Santa Claus?"

THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2011
G
enealogists all know that news-
papers contain much of the
information they need on their
quests obituaries, wedding notices,
news stories. Thats why they spend so
much time straining their eyes over
microfilm.
But theres an often-overlooked area
of those old papers where much of our
ancestors lives was chronicled. That
was the social notes.
Joe Gregory of Mountain Top found
a little social note that paid a big divi-
dend in his search for information. He
knew that out in Missouri many dec-
ades ago he had a great-uncle named
Pickett who according to family leg-
end was associated with Missouris
most famous son, Jesse James.
Gregorys problem, though, was that
there were too many Picketts out there
and without a given name he could
never be isolated from the other Pick-
etts in Missouri.
But people then as now traveled
about to visit friends and relatives, and
it was in a microfilmed copy of the old
Wilkes-Barre Sunday Independent that
Gregory found his breakthrough.
These snippets can be useful, he
writes. From one I learned that my
great-uncle Thomas Pickett from Mis-
souri was visiting his parents in Ge-
orgetown. With that information,
Gregory was able to go decades back
and identify his ancestor in the 1880
U.S. Census for Missouri.
Heres the bottom line: though its
largely a hit-or-miss proposition, a
genealogist can often find valuable
family information from these social
notes. Locally, The Times Leader,
which until the 1990s published only
Monday through Saturday, and the
Sunday Independent carried a lot of
this material.
Today, of course, no one advertises
his departure on vacation in a newspa-
per, and an account of a relative vis-
iting from out of state would not be
considered publishable news. But
many years ago information like this,
and much more, was run in newspa-
pers. Often it was collected and run
under town headings somewhere in-
side the paper. Occasionally it would
be used as filler.
Where did it come from? Newspa-
pers employed part-time correspond-
ents whose job was collecting items
that might be as simple as a wife
throwing a birthday party for her hus-
band or a club electing new officers.
These brief items would generally be
run inside the paper under titles like
Nanticoke News.
The Sunday Independent microfilms
are at the Osterhout Free Library in
Wilkes-Barre. The library has good
20th-century files of The Times Leader
the Wilkes-Barre Record as well. Just a
few doors away is the Luzerne County
Historical Society, with complete
Times Leader and Record microfilms
going back more than a century, as well
as lots of other area papers.
Searching: In recent weeks Ive re-
ceived inquiries about local Civil War-
related groups and mid-20th-century
bakeries in Wilkes-Barres Heights
section. While it would seem that no
two topics could be further apart, they
have one thing in common: they can
both be researched through old copies
of the Wilkes-Barre City Directory.
If you look up the GAR Hall in the
second block of South Main Street a
century ago you will find several relat-
ed groups of veterans, wives and de-
scendants that met there. One, Sons of
Union Veterans of the Civil War, is still
active. Check out East Market Street
circa 1950 and you will find several
bakeries. Others will be listed under
bakeries in the business listings,
though you might need a map to find
out if they were in the Heights.
Where are these directories? Theyre
in the same two fantastic places as the
newspaper microfilms mentioned
above the library and the historical
society.

really is. I enjoy it. I enjoy when they come
back after theyve been in it for a year or
two and stop in to see me. Ill go to trade
shows, and people will come up and say, I
built a house with your company in 1974,
and Im still living it, and the house is
great. I wasnt even here then, but its nice
to hear that.
What do you do to relax? Im a runner. I
wrestled and ran track in high school, and
Ive been running ever since. I used to run
a seven-minute mile. Now I run a 10-minute
mile. But I run whenever I can. And I enjoy
watching college football.
Hobbies? My brother-in-law got me started
with Lionel trains, and I was involved for
about 10 years. We used to go to all of the
train meets all over the state. Ive got quite
a collection at home, but I havent done it
in quite a number of years.
Music? Moody Blues. And I like the Motown
sound, Roy Orbison, The Bee Gees and
America. And Anita Baker.
Favorite city? Thats a tough one. I lived in
Marina del Ray, California, right on the
beach, and I loved it out there. I lived in
Philadelphia and loved Philadelphia. My
daughters live in New York and were there
all the time. Love New York. And I lived
most of my life in Allentown. But Im a
certified diver, and my buddy and I used to
go down to the Florida Keys two or three
times a year, and Key West, Florida, is my
favorite city. I love it.
Favorite vacation spot? Hilton Head Island,
South Carolina.

efore she ever met him, Mollie
Marti knew the judge for whom
she was going to work as a law
clerk had to be an incredible man. She
could tell it fromthe way her lawprofes-
sor spoke of him with deep respect and
fondness decades after he himself had
served as the mans clerk and from what
shereadinthethoughtful, fairandjustde-
cisions the man had written as a judge in
Federal Appeals Court. But none of that
could truly prepare her for how her life
changed when she traveled to Wilkes-
Barre andmet Judge MaxRosenn.
I came from Iowa to Wilkes-Barre to
meet him, and within a week, I told my
husband that if I never practice lawa day
inmylife, thisiswhyIgotmydegreeto
work beside this man, Marti said. She
was originally scheduled to clerk for a
year, but received the unprecedented of-
fer tocontinue toworkwithRosennafter
that andendedupworkingwithhimato-
tal of three years. They remained friends
for10yearsafterthat, untilRosennsdeath
in2006at the age of 96.
Now, more than 20 years after she first
heard about Rosenn, Marti has written a
book that she hopes will give others a
glimpseintothelifeandlegacyofmanshe
calls simply, Judge. The book, Walking
with Justice: Uncommon Lessons from
One of Lifes Greatest Mentors, will be
available early next year.
IknewwhatJudgemeanttome,Mar-
ti said, but whenI sat downtostart writ-
ingthisbookIwassurprisedbyall of what
hehaddoneinhis career. Hewas theSec-
retary of Welfare for Pennsylvania andhe
started Head Start here, and it was then
rolled out as a national program. He was
theonewhorecognizedthedifferencebe-
tween mental illness and mental retarda-
tion, and he wrote decisions on that that
are used to this day. There was his mili-
tary service, andthe way he continuedto
grow in his service to his community all
hislife. Thechallengeinwritingthisbook
was that he was such a great man. How
couldItakeamanthatIcouldwrite10vol-
umes about and write one book that
wouldtell whohe was?
Marti saidshestruggledwiththis until
shethoughtoftheeulogiesRosennssons,
Daniel and Keith, had delivered at his fu-
neral.
They talkedabout the choices that he
madethat shapedhimandwhohewas as
afatherandasaperson,shesaid. Thats
where I foundmy structure.
UsingexcerptsfromDaniel andKeiths
moving tributes to their father as a start-
ing point, Marti wove in anecdotes and
stories that flash back to moments in the
judges life that illustrate the eulogies
messages or shed light on incidents that
formed Rosenn. For example, a chapter
entitled A Patriots Heart opens with a
sons words about his dads military ser-
vice as a JAGlieutenant, then goes on to
tell howRosenn, thoughexempt fromthe
draft because he was married with two
children and despite the fact that he was
in the middle of growing a law practice,
was determined to serve his country in
WorldWar II.
Whenthe Navy wouldnt enlist him
it turned out to be because they werent
acceptingJewishofficersRosennturn-
edtotheArmyandwassent tothePhilip-
pineIslands. About this, Marti quotesRo-
sennassaying, I felt elatedwhenI got in-
tothe Army because I was able tomake a
contribution to a cause that affected so
many.
One incident related in the book that
Marti finds especially telling happened
when Rosenn was only about 5. Marti re-
calledRosenntellingher about thehobos
that wouldoftencomelookingfor money
orfoodandhowhismothertreatedthem.
Rosenn explained howhis mother called
TIMES LEADER FILE PHOTO
U.S. Circuit of Appeals Senior Judge Max Rosenn during a court hearing on the day of his 90th birthday in 2000. Rosenn was 96 when he died.
I knew what Judge meant to me, but when I sat down to start writing this book I was surprised by all
of what he had done in his career. He was the Secretary of Welfare for Pennsylvania and he started
Head Start here. ... He was the one who recognized the difference between mental illness and mental
retardation, and he wrote decisions on that that are used to this day. ... The challenge in writing this
book was that he was such a great man. How could I take a man that I could write 10 volumes
about and write one book that would tell who he was?

Favorite food? Pasta.
Always in the fridge? Choco-
late-chip ice cream.
First car? A1955 Oldsmobile.
Two-door, hard-top. White.
Pristine condition. Powder-
blue interior. I bought it for
$25 dollars. I was 15 years old
and didnt have my drivers
license yet. My dad let me
keep it the garage until I was
able to get my drivers li-
cense. And I remember, it
didnt have reverse. There
was a problem with the
transmission, so I had to be
real careful when I drove,
because I could only drive it
forward. But it was a great
car.
Favorite movies? Midnight
Cowboy, the original version
of The Day The Earth Stood
Still, The Bridge on the
River Kwai and Islands In
The Stream.
Favorite author? I like the
Hemingway classics. And
right now, Im reading Un-
broken by Laura Hillen-
brand.
Favorite TV shows? Blue
Bloods, Hawaii Five-0 and
Burn Notice. And, when the
series was running, 24.
What about you might sur-
prise people? I was a rugby
player. I played on a rugby
football team from1970-1975.
Loved it.
Favorite quote? If youre
going through hell, keep
going. Winston Churchill.
Words to live by? You have
two choices in life: You can
be part of your own plan or
part of someone elses.
Proudest professional mo-
ment? I received the 2009
Builder of the Year award
from the Pennsylvania Build-
ers Association. Its the
highest honor and recognizes
achievement in the building
industry and commitment to
it. I went to the banquet, and
I had no idea I was getting it.
It was kind of a shock, and it
was kind of like a defining
moment, because its judged
by a group of your peers.
Theyre all past recipients of
the award, and theyre all
builders, and its recognition
of the fact you did well.

she always gave each one a dollar,
no questions asked. On this partic-
ular day, an aunt was visiting, and
the aunt and Rosenns mother no-
ticeda manout inthe yardpicking
up the clothespins that were scat-
teredunder theline. Themanthen
cametothedoor andofferedtosell
the clothespins to Rosenns moth-
er, while the aunt and young Max
Rosenn watched from inside. The
mothergavethemanthemoneyhe
asked for in exchange for her own
clothespins, promptingthe aunt to
questionheraboutwhyshepaidfor
somethingshe alreadyowned.
Judge told me his mother said,
If I have the opportunity to show
him respect, if I can maintain his
dignity, howcouldI not givethat to
him? Marti said, Andas a 5-year-
old, Judgewas watchingthis close-
lyandheclearlylearnedthatlesson
that dayandnever forgot it.
Marti said that dozens of law
clerks who were able to work with
Rosennsharesomanyfondmemo-
ries of the man who shaped their
livesthat theyformedasocietyand
sponsor a lecture series in his hon-
or. Manyof themincludingMarti
keep pictures of the judge in
their home or office, or even both,
andsaytheycanstill turntotheles-
sons hetaught themandtheexam-
ple he set to guide them in their
lives years after he has passedon.
That feeling of his guidance still
being with her helped Marti en-
dure a recent difficult time in her
life, onethatshesaidledtothewrit-
ing of this book. When a virus at-
tacked her neurological system
and Marti was unable to work, she
foundthatRosennhadaleftbehind
a lessonfor eventhat situation.
He was a master of rejuvena-
tion, andamasterof intentional liv-
ing,Martisaid.HereIwas,mylife
haddeconstructedandIhadclosed
downmyconsultingpractice. I had
theopportunitytointentionallyre-
construct my life one block at a
time.
Thinking about the many les-
sons shehadlearnedfromRosenn,
Marti said she took time to think
about what her greatest regret
would be if her life had ended and
very intentionally began to chart
her newpath.
My greatest regret would have
beennot writingthisbook, not tell-
ingJudgesstory,shesaid. I need-
ed to tell about his leadership, his
resilience, how we can keep hope
alive, howtoserve, andthehealing
wecanbringtohumanityall the
things he taught me.
While the book has not yet been
published, Marti said she is encour-
agedbytheresponsefromthosewho
havereadadvancecopies, especially
thosewhoknewRosennstarting
with his family, and then his second
family, the lawyers and law clerks
who worked with him. A standing
ovation at a public reading and re-
peatedly hearing from law clerks
thatshewrotethebooktheywanted
towrite tells her she toldthe judges
story right. She thinks she knows
why the story came together soeas-
ily and resonates so well with those
whoknewRosenn.
I feel like this was co-written
with Judge, she said. At so many
points, I asked him what should I
sayor what doyouwant said. I feel
like he guided this whole process.
When I would get stuck, I would
just say, Judge and it would al-
most feel like his hand was on my
shoulder.
Thebookhasbeencalledahand-
book for living and the story of a
mentor to mentors, and Marti
agrees its all that and one thing
more.
This is a love story, she said.
No one will walk away from this
booknot realizingthis is alovesto-
ry between me and my lifes great-
est mentor.
She wrote the book, Marti said,
to share that love with others who
never had the opportunity to meet
Rosenn and to let them benefit
fromthelifelessonsof amentorbe-
lovedbymany.
Judge had a simple prayer that
he said every day: God help me
make a contribution to a just
world, Marti said. I think thats
the invitation here to people: what
is your lifes prayer to your God, to
your creator. Identifythat prayer in
yourlifeandprayit, andwalkitona
daily basis. Use, develop and share
all thegifts youhavefor thebenefit
of humanity. Thats what Judge
taught all of us.

LIKE SO
MANY other
Penn State
alumni, Jerry
Needel was
dazed with
confusion.
The proud
university he believed he knew
was suddenly shocked by
shame, its reputation sullied by
a sex scandal swirling around
the Penn State football coaching
staff and through the universi-
tys administration.
And Needel, a 1998 Penn
State grad whose passion for
sports starts and stops with the
Nittany Lions football team, was
beyond dismayed.
I felt very helpless and frus-
trated, Needel, a Morristown,
N.J. resident, said. I have a
Penn State sweatshirt that I
wear when I walk the dog at
night.
Im like, Can I even wear
this?
He wore that embarrassment
for a few days after former Penn
State defensive coordinator
Jerry Sandusky was charged
with preying on young boys and
legendary head coach Joe Pa-
terno lost his job over a suspect-
ed university cover-up.
But Needel wasnt going to
hide from the core values he
learned at Penn State, or turn
his back on what he knew in his
heart. So he turned to a few
thousand friends.
This is how a grassroots effort
by Penn State alums to raise
money for RAINN (the Rape,
Abuse and Incest National Net-
work) came about.
In the days after Sandusky
was charged and even before
Paterno was gone, Penn State
alums were already turning this
focus from the football field to
the alleged victims.
It was time for Penn Staters
to stop hurting and start help-
ing.
Theyre very proud people,
Needel said. No one in the
world is better at supporting
causes. Weve seen this emotion
out there. Lets funnel all this
passion and emotion the Penn
State and Pennsylvania commu-
nity had into something posi-
tive.
Led by Needel, a small group
of Penn State grads who had
no affiliation with the university
other than they went there
pitched their idea to RAINN.
When it was approved, they
started an online charity, proud-
tobeapennstater.com, hoping to
generate funds in the quest to
help sexually abused children.
If we do the right thing,
Needel reasoned, it will help
Penn Staters heal and get their
pride back. We threw up that
website 9 or 10 in the morning.
By 4 p.m. that day, responses
were flooding in, overwhelming
disgrace with kind-hearted
determination.
WE ARE PENN STATE
The people at RAINN thought
it would be great if this fundrais-
er could generate about
$25,000. In just three days, it
collected $250,000 by gametime
last Saturday. And that total
rose to $357,000 by the end of
last weekend.
Its blown me away, Needel
said.
Its still going.
Business owners with Penn
State connections from around
the state began reworking their
budgets to free up donations to
RAINN.
Norma Mann, who helps run
Gary Mann Jewelers a family
business in the Manayunk sec-
tion of Philadelphia is one of
them. With one child who is
attending Penn State and anoth-

COLUMBUS, OhioBefore kickoff, it was
pronounced that the game was essentially
meaningless. Wisconsin had already won. So
Penn States fate would be decided next week
in Madison, not on Saturday at the Horse-
shoe.
That hardly seemed to matter to the Nitta-
ny Lions as they ran off the field at Ohio State
after a 20-14 win over the Buckeyes.
After two weeks of turmoil and exclusively
bad news, this one had plenty of meaning for
Penn State players and coaches.
Dont get no better than this, linebacker
Gerald Hodges bellowed as he took off for the
locker room.
Anything to feel good again. Or, at the
least, anything to feel normal.
On top of the horrific allegations of sexual
abuse and cover-up at the university, those
outside of Joe Paternos family learnedFriday
that the deposed coach was suffering from
lung cancer.
This win, this isnt about me, interim
coach Tom Bradley said after his first victory
in Paternos stead. Its about these players.
The team. I dont think any teamin the histo-

WHITEHALL It was a game of
a lifetime for the entire Wyoming
Seminary roster.
For Kristian Stefanides, it was
probably even more than that.
In her final high school game,
Stefanides scored three times to
lift the Blue Knights to the PIAA
Class 2A state field hockey cham-
pionship, as Wyoming Seminary
defeated Villa Maria 3-2 on Sat-
urday.
Im speechless. This was just
the most incredible game, Stefa-
nides said. This was our last
game. For the seniors, this meant a
lot. We won state championships
in three of our four seasons. Wow.
The victory brought home the
fifth state title for Seminary since
2001, and the schools first repeat
championship. The win was also
an unprecedented 16th consecutive
state tournament victory -- a streak
which began with the Knights
2006 march to a title.

DALLAS One thing that concerned Dallas
greatly happened twice in the closing minutes
Saturday afternoon.
It was just enough to end the Mountaineers
season and quest for their first district football
title since 1999.
Valley View connected on
twotouchdownpasses, thefinal
with 1:11 remaining, to rally
past Dallas for an 18-12 victory
and the District 2 Class 3Atitle.
Dallas ended its season at
10-2. Valley View (11-1) won its
first district title after falling
short three previous times. The
Cougars will play D11 cham-
pion Allentown Central Cathol-
ic (7-5) at 7 p.m. Friday at Be-
thlehem Liberty High School.
Brian Lalli, Valley Views all-
time leading receiver, hauled in
a 74-yard touchdown pass at
2:56 and then after recovering a
Dallas fumble caught a 16-yard
game-winning toss with 1:11 to
play.
Everybody knows were a run-first team, Lal-
li said, soweliketoestablishtherun. Fortunate-
ly in the end it opened up a little bit for me and I
was able to make some plays.
That was a worry Dallas coach Ted Jackson
mentioned a week ago after a semifinal win
against Scranton Prep. The Cougars like to
pound their pair of 1,000-yard backs and then
shock opponents with a big hitter in the passing
game.

FIRST QUARTER
PSU-- Stephfon Green 40-yard run
(Anthony Fera kick), 12:27. Drive: 5
plays, 80 yards, 2:33. Comment:
Penn State coaches (understan-
dably) denied as late as Thursday
that the Nittany Lions were working
on a wildcat package for this game.
Naturally they bust it out on the
opening drive against the Buckeyes,
and its first appearance leads to a
touchdown. Wideout Curtis Drake, a
quarterback fromhis high school
days at West Catholic in Philadel-
phia, took a snap out of the shotgun
and handed it off to senior Stephfon
Green. The middle of the field opens
up entirely and Green doesnt even
need to make a cut, sprinting untou-
ched for the score. Its the fourth
score of the season for the senior, all
coming in the last four games. Its
also the second-longest run of the
season for the Lions (Silas Redd 42
yards vs. Northwestern). PENN
STATE 7, OHIO STATE 0.
PSU-- Fera 43-yard field goal, 1:59.
Drive: 15 plays, 54 yards, 5:29. Com-
ment: With Silas Redd not 100 per-
cent, the Lions use four different
ball-carriers on this drive and Matt
McGloin converts a couple of third-
and-long passes before the offense
stalls in Buckeyes territory. Fera
comes on and boots a career-long
field goal at the end of the lengthy
drive. His previous best had been 40
yards. PSU10, OSU0.
SECOND QUARTER
OSU-- Braxton Miller 24-yard run
(Drew Basil kick), 12:32. Drive: 10
plays, 77 yards, 4:22. Comment: The
Buckeyes and their true freshman
quarterback certainly missed top
receiver DeVier Posey. The senior
had been suspended for the first 10
games of the season following an
investigation into illegal benefits, but
he shows no rust fromit. Posey
makes a gorgeous one-handed catch
at the sideline, barely getting a foot
down in bounds near two Lions
defenders for a big first down. Look-
ing confident, Miller takes the ball
himself after that, making a great
cut and bouncing off right tackle to
race to paydirt at the near corner of
the end zone. PSU10, OSU7.
PSU-- Green 4-yard run (Fera kick),
10:05. Drive: 5 plays, 81 yards, 2:20.
Comment: Definitive answer on the
ensuing drive fromPenn State as
Redd once again looks like Redd.
The sophomore matches his career-
longest run by tearing out of a
tackle and trotting 42 yards down to
the Buckeyes 36. A McGloin-to-
Moye connection and another run
out of the wildcat -- this time from
true freshman Bill Belton -- drives
the Lions to the goal line, where
Green punches it in. That makes
back-to-back games with two touch-
downs for Green, who is closing his
career strong after missing much of
the start of the campaign for dis-
ciplinary reasons. PSU17, OSU7.
OSU-- Jake Stoneburner 7-yard
pass fromMiller (Basil kick), 5:22.
ment: Two big interceptions by
McGloin turned last years matchup
completely around. This one doesnt
go all the way back for a touchdown,
but the Buckeyes still manage to
convert a McGloin turnover into
points. Rolling to his right, McGloin
throws a pass across his body and
too high for tight end Andrew
Szczerba. The ball is tipped and
picked off by safety Orhian Johnson,
who returns it 15 yards to the Lions
37. Fromthere, the Buckeyes get
their option game going and Miller
fools the defense with a fake pitch
for a 24-yard gain. On third down,
Miller hits his tight end in the back
of the end zone for the score. PSU
17, OSU14.
PSU-- Fera 46-yard field goal, 0:00.
ment: Once again, the Lions newly
implemented wildcat scheme hurts
the Buckeyes. This time its Drake
taking the snap and weaving 38
yards through traffic to set up the
field goal try. Penn State winds the
clock all the way down to four sec-
onds before calling a timeout and
bringing on Fera again. The sopho-
more connects to set a new career-
high for the second time in the half.
Now at 20 points, the Lions have
their most points scored at Ohio
Stadiumsince 1964. PSU20, OSU
14.
PLAY OF THE GAME
In 2008, it was a safety who made a
big defensive play on Ohio States
quarterback to fuel Penn States first
win at the Horseshoe in 30 years. In
2010, it was another safety who
helped preserve another one. On
fourth-and-10 fromthe Penn State 41
with two minutes to play, the Buck-
eyes Braxton Miller took off as he
had done so many times on the day.
Astorino was able to take out the
rookie quarterbacks legs right in
front of the Lions sideline, dropping
himjust a yard short of a critical
conversion.
COLUMBUS, Ohio Despite
the notion that Penn State will
look to distance itself from Joe
Paternos staff, acting athletic di-
rector Dave Joyner said the
search for a permanent football
coach will include candidates
with ties to the school.
Joyner said that a search com-
mittee to find a permanent re-
placement for Paterno will be
formed in the near future with
himself andnewuniversity presi-
dent Rod Erickson being the fi-
nal decision-makers.
Were going to decide on that
structure very soon, Joyner said
Saturday before Penn States 20-
14 win over Ohio State.
Joyner, who was named acting
athletic director on Wednesday,
said that the decision on a foot-
ball coachwill not come fromthe
board of trustees, which voted to
fire Paterno on Nov. 9.
With the university still reel-
ing over the sexual abuse charg-
es against former defensive coor-
dinator Jerry Sandusky, there
was a question as to whether
anyone with even passing ties to
Penn State or Sandusky would
be a candidate for the full-time
job.
Joyner, a former Penn State
football and wrestling All-Amer-
ican himself, said that would not
influence his opinion.
I would have no objection to
hiring someone connected to
PennState, Joyner said. It wont
be my decision alone. There will
be a lot of counsel. But Penn
State, I would have no objection
to a Penn-State tied person.
Whoever is the best person is go-
ing to get the job.
Presumably that includes in-
terim coach Tom Bradley, who
has been at the university as a
player and coach since 1975.
I think coach Bradley has
doneaveryfinejob, Joyner said.
Ive known him for a very long
time and hes very direct. I think
hes good with the media. And
the players really respect him.
Because hes a very tough guy.
They dont call him Scrap for
nothing. I think hes done a fine
job.
People that know me know
Im going to do the right thing,
no matter what it is. It doesnt
matter if Im a Penn Stater or
fromOhio State or wherever. Its
more about whats inside the per-
son than whats going on out-
side.
As for Joyner himself, his offi-
cial title is acting athletic direc-
tor, as Tim Curley is still em-
ployed by the university. Curley
has been on paid administrative
leave since being charged with
perjury and failure to report
child abuse in connection with
the Sandusky case.
Mark Sherburne was initially
appointed acting athletic direc-
tor on an emergency basis before
Joyner was eventually selected.
Sherburne has returned to his
previous role as associate athlet-
ic director.
Joyner, who had been on the
board of trustees since 2000 be-
fore taking leave to serve in this
newposition, said he will contin-
ue on in that capacity for as long
as needed.
I will help the university for
as long as they want me to help
them, Joyner said. If its five
months, if its five years, Im pre-
pared to do that.
If somebody would offer me
the job (full-time), depending on
how things were, I would cer-
tainly be very interested.
Joyner said he was eager to
help lead the athletic depart-
ment -- and the school as a whole
-- out of the darkest period in its
history.
Penn State got yet more bad
news on Friday as Paternos fam-
ily revealed that the former
coach had been diagnosed with
lung cancer.
This came just hours after the
NCAA announced it would be
launching an inquiry to deter-
mine if any of the organizations
bylaws had been violated in light
of the Sandusky case.
Weve all been in a whirlwind.
Its everything at once, Joyner
said. First and foremost is the
tragedy for the victims. Ive said
to people that have been in a fu-
neral for the last two weeks. I
think were in a period of mourn-
ing now, to be honest with you.
Weve got to get about our
business. Weve got to get to
work and get things done, and
were beginning to do that. But
we have to keep walking that
straight path. Well be respectful
and well never forget.
New coach could be current staff member
PSU acting AD Dave Joyner
said ties to program would
not influence candidate.

ry maybe of college football has
been through so much in such a
(short) time period.
And to be able to hang in
there andfight their waythrough
it, theyve done everything weve
asked themto do. I couldnt be
prouder of them.
Yes, as far as the Big Ten race
goes, the victory at Ohio State --
the Lions second in three trips
to Columbus after a 30-year
drought there -- didnt change
anything.
The winner of next weekends
Penn State-Wisconsin show-
down will represent the Leaders
Divisioninthe inaugural BigTen
championship game against Mi-
chigan State. And that would not
have changed had the Lions lost
to the Buckeyes.
But that wasnt on the players
minds on Saturday. Not after
landinginOhioa day earlier only
to have their phones light up and
sound off in unison with reports
of Paternos health.
Hes gonna beat it, his son,
quarterbacks coach Jay Paterno
said. If theres anyone who can
beat it, its him.
Jay Paterno broke the news to
his fellow coaches on the plane
to Columbus. Bradley then for-
mallydiscussedit withthe entire
squad that night.
It served as yet another emo-
tional backdrop to a game for the
Lions.
Weve dedicated this season
to Joe, said senior tailback
Stephfon Green, who scored
both of the Lions touchdowns
for the second straight week.
With everything hes going
through, with the adversity hes
going through, we (feel it), too.
Were just going to fight to-
gether. And hes gonna come out
good on his side, and were gon-
na come out good on our side.
Were playing for everybody,
senior captain Drew Astorino
said. Were playing for Joe.
Were playing for Penn State Uni-
versity. Were playing for just ev-
erybody.
Unlike last week, that feeling
translated over onto the field in
the early going as Penn State
(9-2, 6-1 Big Ten) scored on four
of its five first-half drives to lead
20-14 at the break.
Debuting a wildcat scheme
that caught the Buckeyes by sur-
prise, the Lions racked up 254
yards of total offense inthe open-
ing 30 minutes while having re-
ceivers Curtis Drake andBill Bel-
tontake periodic snaps out of the
shotgun.
The first time the Lions un-
veiled it, Drake handed off to
Green, who burst 40 yards up the
middle untouched for a score.
Green added a 4-yard touch-
down in the second quarter and
Anthony Fera hit field goals of 43
and 46 yards, both topping his
previous career-high of 40.
By halftime, the Lions had
scored more points in a game at
Ohio Stadiumsince a 27-0 win in
1964 -- the last time they played
in Columbus without Paterno as
head coach.
Both offenses shut down from
there. Penn State came up with
two fumble recoveries in the
third quarter sandwiched
around a four-play goal-line
stand by the Buckeyes defense.
There was no doubt in my
mind we were going for it, Bra-
dley said. I told them we were
going the whole way. We were
going for the win the whole way.
Normally I wouldve probably
kicked it. But I felt that wouldve
been the wrong decision. Be-
cause Imaskingthose guys togo
to the wall, Im going to the
wall.
Ohio State (6-5, 3-4), which
hadpulledoff animprobablelast-
minute winover Wisconsinjust a
fewweeks ago, lookedtobe mak-
ing a similar rally.
The Buckeyes true freshman
quarterback, Braxton Miller, ran
andthrewfor a touchdowninthe
first half and was on the verge of
adding a third score for the win
in the final two minutes.
But on a fourth-and-10 scram-
ble fromthe Penn State 41, Asto-
rinobrought Miller downjust be-
fore he could pick up the first
downwithless thantwominutes
to play.
Ohio State got the ball back
with 36 seconds left but only
went backward on four plays be-
fore time expired.
Now the Lions head to Wis-
consin with a chance to win the
division. And a chance to finish
the season with memories of
more thanjust scandal andtrage-
dy.
I challenged the guys before
the game, Bradley said. I said
thelast teams towinherewerein
78 and 08. How are you gonna
be remembered?

SOUTH BEND, Ind. Jonas
Gray rushed for a touchdown,
David Ruffer kicked three field
goals and No. 24 Notre Dame re-
covered an onside kick with just
under 2 minutes to play to hold
off Boston College 16-14 on Sat-
urday.
Ruffer had field goals of 40, 41
and 27 yards for the Irish (8-3),
who matched their victory total
from last year with their fourth
straight win. But it was a costly
victory, too, with Gray leaving in
the third quarter with what
looked to be a knee injury. Gray,
whowas enjoyingabreakout year
after a lackluster first three sea-
sons, had extended his scoring
streak to eight games with a 26-
yard run on the opening drive of
the game.
The Eagles struggled to get
anything going offensively for
most of the second half, with
Chase Rettig throwing 10 incom-
pletions ina rowat one point. But
Rettig got on track just in time to
make things interesting, finding
Chris Pantale for a 21-yard gain
and throwing a 17-yarder to Ro-
landan Finch as the Eagles ad-
vanced to the Notre Dame 16
with about 3 minutes to play. A
pass interference call on Zeke
Motta moved Boston College to
the2and, after afalsestart andan
incompletion, Rettig connected
with Bobby Swigert for a 7-yard
score.
Boston College (3-8) went for
the onside kick, but Robby Toma
recovered it and Notre Dame ran
the clock down to just eight sec-
onds. The Eagles got the ball
back and lateraled several times
before Irish linebacker Troy Nik-
las made the final tackle around
the Boston College 15 to end the
game. Notre Dame has beaten
Boston College three years in a
row after losing six straight.
Eagles linebacker Luke Kuech-
ly was credited with 14 tackles,
leavinghimoneshyof theBoston
College career record. The junior
did set the ACC record with 523
career tackles.
Notre Dame looked as if it was
going to have an easy afternoon
when it marched 80 yards on its
opening drive, capped by Grays
rumble through the Boston Col-
lege defense. But the Irish of-
fense stalled twice just outside
the Boston College red zone, and
Tommy Rees was picked off
around midfield on another
drive. Rees finished 24-of-39 for
256 yards.
Cierre Wood had 98 yards for
Notre Dame, giving him1,001for
the season. Michael Floyd had10
catches for 92 yards in his final
game at Notre Dame Stadium.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. Trent
Richardson rushed for 175 yards
and scored three touchdowns to
power No. 3 Alabama to a 45-21
victory over Georgia Southern
on Saturday.
The Crimson Tide (10-1)
didnt win many style points in
giving up a season-high 21
points, but the teams biggest
national title boost came the
previous night when No. 2 Okla-
homa State fell 37-31 to Iowa
State in two overtimes.
Alabama needed Richardson
more than expected against the
FCS Eagles (9-2). The Heisman
Trophy candidate ran 32 times,
caught a 4-yard touchdown pass
and broke Shaun Alexanders
school single-season mark of 19
rushing touchdowns.
He was still running well into
the fourth quarter in a game
that was expected to be a low-
stress tuneup for the Iron Bowl
at Auburn.
No. 1 LSU 52, Mississippi 3
OXFORD, Miss. Ron
Brooks returned an interception
for a touchdown 28 seconds into
the game and top-ranked LSU
never looked back, piling up 353
yards rushing on the way to a
52-3 rout of Mississippi on Sat-
urday night.
The Tigers (11-0, 7-0 South-
eastern Conference), who
matched their best start since
1958, built a 35-3 halftime lead.
Quarterback Jordan Jefferson
started his second consecutive
game, completing 7 of 7 passes
for 88 yards and a touchdown.
Alfred Blue led the Tigers with
74 rushing yards while Spencer
Ware added 70 yards and a
touchdown.
No. 6 Arkansas 44,
Mississippi St. 17
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. Tyler
Wilson had a school-record 32
completions as No. 6 Arkansas
defeated Mississippi State 44-17.
Wilson finished 32 of 43 for
365 yards and three touch-
downs.
The win is the seventh
straight for the Razorbacks
(10-1, 6-1 Southeastern Confer-
ence), who travel to No. 1 LSU
next week for a game with con-
ference and national title impli-
cations.
It also clinched the first back-
to-back 10-win seasons since
1988-89 for Arkansas, which
completed its first undefeated
season at home since 1999.
N.C. State 37,
No. 7 Clemson 13
RALEIGH, N.C. Mike
Glennon threw three touch-
down passes and North Carolina
State shut down No. 7 Clem-
sons explosive offense to help
the Wolfpack beat the mistake-
prone Tigers 37-13 on Saturday.
Tobais Palmer had a dazzling
43-yard catch-and-run touch-
down to highlight a surprisingly
dominating performance by
N.C. State (6-5, 3-4 Atlantic
Coast Conference). The Wolf-
pack scored 27 points in the
second quarter, then increased
the lead and never let the Tigers
(9-2, 6-2) build any momentum
to rally.
No. 11 Houston 37, SMU 7
HOUSTON Case Keenum
set the Football Bowl Subdivi-
sion career record for comple-
tions, threw a touchdown pass
and ran for another score as No.
11 Houston stayed unbeaten
with a 37-7 win over SMU on
Saturday.
Keenum completed 30 of 45
passes for 318 yards, a modest
day for the nations leader in
total offense and pass efficiency.
He set the completions mark on
his seventh throw, breaking the
previous mark (1,403) set by
Texas Techs Graham Harrell
(2005-08).
No. 13 Georgia 19, Kentucky 10
ATHENS, Ga. Aaron Mur-
ray threw a touchdown pass to
Marlon Brown on the first play
of the fourth quarter, Blair
Walsh kicked four field goals
and No. 13 Georgia beat Ken-
tucky 19-10 on Saturday to
clinch a spot in the SEC cham-
pionship game.
Georgia struggled on offense
after losing top rusher Isaiah
Crowell to a left ankle injury
after only two carries. Crowells
top backup, Carlton Thomas,
was not at the game for personal
reasons.
Georgia was left with Ken
Malcome and Brandon Harton,
who rushed for 101 yards, at
tailback.
South Carolina 41, Citadel 20
COLUMBIA, S.C. Connor
Shaw threw for 217 yards and
three touchdowns, including
Alshon Jefferys first scoring
catch in more than a month, and
No. 14 South Carolina defeated
The Citadel 34-20 on Saturday.
The Gamecocks (9-2) reached
nine victories in back-to-back
years for the first time in school
history and held out hope for
even more milestones.
A Kentucky win at Georgia
later Saturday would send
South Carolina back to the
Georgia Dome as Southeastern
Conference Eastern Division
champions.
No. 19 TCU 34,
Colorado State 10
FORT WORTH, Texas
Antoine Hicks, Ed Wesley and
Matthew Tucker ran for touch-
downs and Tank Carder return-
ed an interception 69 yards for a
touchdown, helping No. 19 TCU
win at least a share of the Moun-
tain West title with a 34-10 vic-
tory over Colorado State on
Saturday.
Coming off an upset win at
Boise State, the Horned Frogs
(9-2, 6-0) seemed a bit flat in the
first half. They got rolling in the
third quarter on their way to
handing the Rams (3-7, 1-4) a
sixth straight loss.
Miami 6, South Florida 3
TAMPA, Fla. Jake Wie-
claws second field goal of the
game, a 36-yarder as time ex-
pired, gave Miami a 6-3 victory
over South Florida and made
the Hurricanes bowl eligible on
Saturday.
Temple 42, Army 14
PHILADELPHIA Temple
kept its bowl hopes alive with a
42-14 victory over Army before
25,516 at Lincoln Financial Field
on Saturday afternoon.
The victory gives the Owls a
7-4 overall record (4-3 MAC)
and a modest two-game winning
streak, with Kent State remain-
ing on their schedule. Army lost
its third consecutive game and
fifth of its last six.

SAN JOSE, Calif. Brandon
Rutley rushed for 132 yards and
two touchdowns and caught a

son.
The Cornhuskers (8-3, 4-3)
lost any hope of playing in the
Big Tens first title game.
Michigan State clinched its
spot in the Dec. 3 game in
Indianapolis with a win over
Indiana and Michigans victory
against Nebraska.
No. 12 Michigan St. 55,
Indiana 3
EAST LANSING, Mich.
Kirk Cousins threw for 273
yards and three touchdowns in
just over a half and No. 12 Mi-
chigan State clinched a spot in
the inaugural Big Ten cham-
pionship game with a rout of
Indiana.
The Spartans entered the
game with a one-game lead in
the Legends Division over both
Nebraska and Michigan, who
were playing at the same time
in Ann Arbor. When the Wolve-
rines won, it locked up the
division for Michigan State
(9-2, 6-1 Big Ten) because of its
28-14 win over Michigan on
Oct. 15.
Cousins hit B.J. Cunningham
for a 7-yard touchdown on
Michigan States first posses-
sion of the second half, giving
the Spartans a 41-3 lead. He left
on the next possession.
Wisconsin 28, Illinois 17
CHAMPAIGN, Ill. Montee
Ball rushed for 224 yards and
Wisconsin forced four turn-
overs in a comeback win
against Illinois.
The slumping Illini jumped
out to a 14-0 lead in the second
quarter and carried a 17-7 ad-
vantage into halftime. But Ball
had a 5-yard TD run after Wis-
consin recovered a fumble,
pulling the Badgers within
three early in the third quarter.
The Badgers kept up the
pressure, grabbing the lead for
good on quarterback Russell
Wilsons 1-yard TD run that
made it 21-17. Wilsons team
only had to go 44 yards for the
go-ahead score after a 74-yard
punt buried the Illini at their
own 3. Donovonn Young
rushed for two TDs for Illinois.
He finished with 43 yards on
eight carries.
Iowa 31, Purdue 21
WEST LAFAYETTE, Ind.
James Vandenberg threw three
touchdown passes, including
two to Marvin McNutt, to help
Iowa defeat Purdue 31-21 on
Saturday for the Hawkeyes
first road win of the season.
Vandenberg passed for 273
yards, and McNutt caught nine
passes for 151 yards.
Marcus Coker rushed for 139
yards on 30 carries for the
Hawkeyes (7-4, 4-3 Big Ten),
who had lost their three road
games by a combined 14 points.
The Hawkeyes outgained the
Boilermakers 408 yards to 286
but struggled to put away
scrappy Purdue.
Antavian Edison caught nine
passes for 97 yards and Ralph
Bolden ran for 71 yards for
Purdue on Senior Day. Quarter-
back Robert Marve threw two

once.
Northwestern 28,
Minnesota 13
EVANSTON, Ill. Dan Per-
sa threw for 216 yards and two

Venric Mark came through
with two big kickoff returns as
the Wildcats (6-5, 3-4 Big Ten)
scored touchdowns on their
first three possessions to build
a 21-7 lead. That set the tone as
Northwestern became eligible
for its fourth straight bowl
appearance.

That is incredible, goalie
Hannah Dressler said of the state
tourney winstreak. Imjust soex-
cited. I never expected this to hap-
pen. We all just pulled together
andtheteamplayedagreat game.
For the seniors, there was noth-
ing but smiles, and some relief. Af-
ter a few minutes to take it all in,
they were even able to laugh a lit-
tle.
Yeah, three times. Were used
to it, Ann Romanowski joked be-
fore taking a serious look at the
class of 2012s three titles.
This one (was the toughest),
Romanowski said. We are the se-
niors now. A lot of it relies on us.
This never gets old, AshLeigh
Sebia said.
With the game looking like a
matchup between top scorers Se-
bia of Seminary (34 goals) and
Caroline Troncelliti of Villa Maria
(28 goals), Stefanides played like
shewasthenationstopscorer. Her
hat trick came after a postseason
of just onegoal insixpreviousplay-
off games.
Kristian Stefanides three
goals, that was just wonderful,
Seminary coach Karen Klassner
said. She was where she was sup-
posed to be. The coaching staff
worked with Kristian on her of-
fense, her tips. I felt cominginthat
Kristian was going to have a big
game.
Stefanides converted penalty
corners in the first seven minutes
of each half, tucking a pass from
Mallory Lefkowitz into a gaping
net to open the scoring and shov-
ing home a flip across the goal
from Molly Turner in the second
half to give Seminary a 3-1 lead.
The senior also scored in the
18thminute onanimpressive rush
upfield. Kristen Mericle started
the playwitha longdrive fromjust
inside the 25-yard line. Sebia
tipped the ball at the top of the cir-
cle to Stefanides, who poked it be-
hind keeper Maddie Joyce.
She was unbelievable today,
Sebia said of co-captain Stefa-
nides. She was there when we
needed her.
She could have had more. Ste-
fanides put the ball into the net in
the 49th minute, but a foul halted
play before the shot. A potential
fifth goal set up by Sebia with
3:56 remaining was called back
when the officials decided a cor-
ner had already been awarded.
TheHurricanes scoredless than
twominutes after Seminary tooka
1-0 lead on a corner. Olivia Bolles
shot squeaked through Dressler
and Lauren Del Valle was behind
the keeper toslamthe ball intothe
goal. Down3-1, VillaMarias Bolles
flicked a shot on a corner past
Dressler on the stick side with 19
minutes remaining.
Idsaytheywerenervous, Villa
Maria coach Maurene Polley said
of her team. Sometimes they
werealittleindecisive. Theydidnt
dotoday what got themhere. Alot
of these kids that are seniors now,
theydidnt haveaminuteof varsity
time before this season.
Molly Turner had a long rush
upfield with less than five minutes
remaining to relieve pressure, but
Villa Maria pressed for the tying
goal during the final minutes. A
wall of Knights defenders greeted
the Hurricanes.
Emily Granger, Mericle, Marra
Wagner and Lefkowitz all had
clears in the final two minutes be-
fore Ann Romanowski made two
big stops to put the game away.
To have back-to-back cham-
pionships is themost amazingfeel-
ing in the world, Stefanides said.
For us to make it past districts,
past the playoffs ... this has been
an amazing run.
We put what everyone else
said about us behind us. We
didnt listen to what everyone
else said. We just went out and
kept playing as hard as we
could.

KNIGHTS
WHITEHALL After the
three senior co-captains re-
ceived their gold medals, the
next Wyoming Seminary play-
ers to receive their champion-
ship prizes were goalie Hannah
Dressler and defenders Emily
Granger, Devin Holmes and
Bridget McMullen.
That group stymied Villa
Maria, which was riding a
14-game winning streak into
the state final Saturday.
"After we had heard that
they beat Selinsgrove 6-0, we
were kind of shocked, especial-
ly since Selinsgrove had beaten
us before," Seminary senior
Kristian Stefanides said. "They
were skilled, very fast and
made some amazing plays, but
we were ready for them."
Villa Maria had scored 13
goals in its previous three
games. The Hurricanes blasted
Selinsgrove in the state semi-
finals Tuesday, just a month
after the Seals had topped
Seminary 2-1.
"Emily Granger played a
great game defensively and
Hannah really stepped up,"
Seminary coach Karen Klassn-
er said. "Emily really took No.
3 out of the game."
Caroline Troncelliti, No. 3
and a Northwestern recruit
with 105 career goals, managed
just one assist and two shots --
one saved by Dressler in the
first half and a penalty corner
drive deflected wide in the
second half.
CORNER WORK
While Villa Maria was 2-
for-11 on penalty corners, the
Hurricanes could be state
champs if not for the work by
Seminarys Ann Romanowski.
"Ann is always making those
kinds of big plays," Dressler
said. "So many times shes
been able to make defensive
plays when we needed her to."
The senior flyer blocked four
drives from the circle and flus-
tered Villa Maria into three
empty opportunities in which
they did not set the ball.
"We knew they used a lot of
blow flicks," Granger said. "We
knew we had to stop them,
stay low, and watch their pass-
ing."
Romanowski said it is impor-
tant to stay focused while
charging at the shooter on a
corner.
"I think you just have to
watch the ball hit your stick,"
Romanowski said.
PERFECTION
Goalie Dressler is now 7-0 in
playoff games in her career
after taking over the starting
job when Ellie McDougal be-
came ill.
The junior has a 1.14 goals
against average in the postsea-
son after her six-save victory
Saturday.
THE STREAK
Wyoming Seminarys PIAA
win streak reached 16 games
with the victory. The Blue
Knights are 27-3 in the state
tournament since 2001, and are
14-2 against district champions
during that stretch.
They are now 7-0 against
District 1 foes in the state
brackets in the past decade,
with wins over Villa Maria in
2008 (4-0 in semifinals), 2010
(4-2 in quarterfinals) and 2011.

Its a shame somebody had to
lose, Jackson said, but they
made the plays at the end of the
game. I thought we made plays
all game. I thought our defense
was outstanding to that point.
The Dallas defense was as it
forced three turnovers, including
an interception by Paul Brace
that he returned for a 26-yard
touchdown and a 12-0 lead after
one quarter.
Dallas had Valley View pinned
in a second-and-16 situation after
linebacker Kris Roccograndi
blindsided Valley View quarter-
back Liam Callejas for a 6-yard
sack. The ball popped loose, but
the Cougars recovered.
On the next play, Callejas
found Lalli on a post pattern for a
74-yard touchdown to tie the
score 12-12. The Cougars got two
cracks at the extra point because
of Dallas penalties, but the kicks
were pushed left both times.
The Mountaineers fumbled on
their first play after the kickoff,
andLalli pouncedontheball. Val-
ley View went to the run four
times before Callejas and Lalli
hooked up on another post pat-
tern for the 16-yard touchdown.
When we went motion, they
were moving guys out of the mid-
dle, said Valley View coach Ge-
orge Howanitz, who quarter-
backed the Cougars to the 1992
Class 2A state title. So the two
touchdowns were the same play.
Any chances of a Dallas rally
were dealt a severe setback prior
to the 74-yard TD pass. Quarter-
back Ryan Zapoticky was
knocked out of the game by a vi-
cious hit from Valley View line-
backer Nyeem Wartman, a Penn
State recruit. Zapoticky led the
entire Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence in touchdown passes, pass-
ing yards and completion per-
centage in the regular season.
Wartman didnt play defense
the first half after being sick all
week with a stomach virus, strep
throat and a fever. He said he lost
10 pounds this week because he
was unable to eat.
My coach kept saying, This
could be your last game here,
Wartman said. I told him I
wasnt going to let it be my last
game, and I had to keep pushing
it.
Zapotickys departure put the
task of rallying Dallas in the
hands of backup Bill Dixon, who
had thrown one pass all season.
Nobody wants to come in in
that situation, Jackson said. Its
a tough situation, its a tough sit-
uation.
Trailing18-12, Dallas took over
at its 32-yard line with 1:04 re-
maining. Dixons first pass, a
screen to receiver Shane Dunn,
banged off a couple players be-
fore falling incomplete. After an-
other incompletion, Dixon was
engulfed by several Cougars for
consecutive sacks.
Dallas took advantage of two
Valley View turnovers to take a
12-0 lead in the first quarter. The
Cougars fumbled on their second
play of the game, leading to a 1-
yardtouchdownpass fromZapot-
icky to Dunn.
Valley View defensive back
Garrett Rupe had the fourth-
down play read well. He tipped
the pass, but Dunn caught it in
the rear left corner of the end
zone while falling.
Then at 2:24 of the first, Brace
sliced in front of a pass and
zippeddowntheleft sidelinefor a
26-yard score and a 12-0 lead.
Dallas moved to the Valley
View35 or better in its next three
possessions. But penalties, a
turnover and an errant shotgun
snap hampered the drives.

BETHANY, W. VA. The foot-
ball season for Kings didnt end
much better than it began.
The Monarchs were routed by
Bethany on Saturday, 48-0 to end
their season with a 1-9 record for
the second
straight year.
The host
piled up 487 to-
tal yards and
held Kings to
just 74 total
yards.
The game,
which was rescheduled from
Sept. 10 due to flooding in North-
east Pa., came at an inopportune
time for the injury-depletedMon-
archs as they made the six-hour
drive without several starters
who missed the game with inju-
ries. Kings, which typically trav-
els with 66 or 67 players, made
the trip with just 51 on Saturday.
Bethany held a 7-0 lead after
the first quarter then poured on
21 more in the second to open a
28-0 lead at halftime. At the
break, the Bison outgained the
Monarchs 240-12.
The loss was the second time
the Monarchs were shutout this
seasonandtheeighthstraight de-
feat after starting the season 1-1.
The Monarchs managed just
38 rushing yards on 30 attempts,
led by Delano Mullings 38 yards
on 12 carries. Freshman quarter-
back Bryant Klein was 7-of-16 for
26 yards with an interception.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.
The New York Giants had their
chancetoburythePhiladelphiaEa-
glesayearagoandfailedmiserably.
Who can forget the Meadow-
lands MeltdowninDecember, or if
youre anEagles fan, the Miracle at
the Meadowlands?
With first place in the NFCEast
ontheline, Eli ManningandtheGi-
antsopeneda21-point fourth-quar-
ter lead, only to see Michael Vick
and DeSean Jackson steal their
crown with one of the most im-
probable comebacks in NFL histo-
ry.
Vickledtheteamtothreetouch-
downs to tie the game late and
Jackson won it returning a punt
that was supposedtobekickedout
of bounds65yardsonthefinal play
of regulation.
Remember either Giants coach
Tom Coughlin slamming his clip-
board to the turf as Jackson ran
past theGiants bench? Or Jackson
tiptoeing along the goal line to eat
the final seconds on the clock be-
fore scoring?
It was uplifting and thrilling for
the Eagles, and downright heart-
breaking for the Giants, who mis-
sed the playoffs for the second
straight year.
Less thanayear later, theGiants
(6-3) get another chancetoburyto
the Eagles (3-6), and this one
seems just as improbable.
FewexpectedNewYork to have
aone-gamelead
in the division
and even fewer
had any idea
that Philadel-
phias Dream
Team would be
this close to
missing the
playoffs with
seven games re-
maining in the
regular season.
The comeback
they need now
might be even
bigger than last
season.
Ourmindset
is just to find a
way to win the
game, Eagles
running back
LeSean McCoy
said. We are just trying to take it
one game at a time and have a
chance to get in the playoffs and
makesomegoodof our season. We
arejust takingeachgameat atime.
We cant think about our record or
where we are at, we just need to
win a game.
This one might be tough be-
cause Vick broke two ribs in last
weeks loss to Arizona and was
ruledout fortonightsgameonSat-
urday. Vince Young will get the
start.
Jackson also is expected back in
the lineup after being benchedlast
week for missing a teammeeting.
Coming off tough 27-20 loss at
San Francisco that cut their NFC
EastleadoverDallastoagame, the
Giants are preparing for Vick.
This has been a big rivalry as
long as I have been here, and I am
sure it goes on longer than that,
defensive end Dave Tollefson said.
There are two agendas on each
team, us trying to get back in the
win column and get some control
of the NFC East, and they are try-
ingtoget the ball rollingtomake a
push. Its huge. Its always some-
thing, isnt it? Whenare the Eagles
andGiantsevergoingtoplayandit
aint something?

Vick wont play when the
Philadelphia Eagles visit the
New York Giants today be-
cause of two broken ribs. He
wont even be on the sideline
because injured players typ-
ically dont make the trip.
Vince Young will make his
first start for Philadelphia in
Vicks place. Hes thrown one
pass this season an in-
terception.
Vick didnt practice this
week because he broke his
two lower ribs on the second
play in a 21-17 loss to Arizona
last Sunday.
Vick was listed as question-
able on Fridays injury report,
but was ruled out after Sat-
urdays walkthrough. Wide

BALTIMORE The Cincin-
nati Bengals have surprised
quite a fewpeople with their im-
pressive start this season. The
Baltimore Ravens are not among
those on the list.
Cincinnati went 4-12 last year
and still beat the Ravens. Balti-
more is 5-4 in its last nine regu-
lar-season games against Pitts-
burgh and 3-6 against the Ben-
gals.
So dont go telling the Ravens
(6-3) that todays showdown for
first place in the AFCNorth is an
unexpected development.
I knew they were always on
the brink of being a good team,
Baltimore linebacker Terrell
Suggs said. Now theyre win-
ning games.
Suggs is the Ravens career
sacks leader, but he didnt have
one last year against Cincinnati
(6-3). Today he will be chasing
quarterback Andy Dalton,
whose14touchdownpasses over
the first nine games is the most
by a rookie since the 1970 AFL-
NFL merger.
Four different Cincinnati re-
ceivers have at least 26 catches
and two touchdowns, most nota-
bly A.J. Green (41receptions, six
TDs). Greens returnfromaright
knee injury sustained in last
weeks 24-17 loss to the Steelers
wont be determined until game
time, but coach Marvin Lewis
still has plenty of options to send
at the renowned Baltimore de-
fense he ruled from1996-2001.
Theyve got some goodweap-
ons over there, Suggs said.
This team is not only danger-
ous, but theyre special. Marvin
Lewis knows that. Theyre play-
ing with a lot of confidence. We
definitely have some work to do,
especially after last week.
Ah, last week. Coming off an
uplifting win in Pittsburgh, the
Ravens inexplicably lost at Seat-
tle to tumble out of first place.
We lost a game. Nobody feels
good about it, but at the same
time, we cant really ride that
wave and be on emotional highs
and lows, quarterback Joe Flac-
co said. We have to get ready to
play another game a very im-
portant game.

STEVE MACINTYRE
Forward
Although Steve MacIntyre was re-
called to Pittsburgh last week, he left
quite an impression during his short
stay with Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. He
also left an impression on a few oppo-
nents faces who were willing to drop
the gloves with MacIntyre.
Known as one of the toughest play-
ers in hockey, MacIntyres experience
at the AHL and NHL levels has also
made him pretty knowledgeable on
what makes a good team.
When asked to play GM and as-
semble his own fantasy hockey team,
MacIntyre breezed through just about
every position with players he has
played with because, as he said, he
has seen how good they are.
He also broke the rules a bit, picking
the same player for two spots but
when youre one of the top fighters in
pro hockey you can get away with
that.
When it came time to pick who he
feels is the best enforcer, MacIntyre
put a lot of thought into it. Its under-
standable, considering MacIntyre is a
top authority on the
subject.
Forward Sidney
Crosby (Pittsburgh),
That ones a no-
brainer.
Defenseman
Nicklas Lidstrom
(Detroit)
Goaltender Marc-
Andre Fleury (Pittsburgh), Hes pretty
darn good.
Power Play Specialist Sidney
Crosby (Pittsburgh), Can I pick him
again. Yes.
Penalty Kill Specialist Craig
Adams (Pittsburgh)
Shootout Specialist Evgeni Mal-
kin (Pittsburgh), Hes pretty dirty
with the moves he can make.
Enforcer Shawn Thornton (Bos-
ton), Hes really good and hes been
doing it a long time.
Agitator/Pest Brad Marchand
(Boston), MacIntyre threw out Daniel
Carcillo and Alexandre Burrows before
settling on Marchand. Hes good at
what he does. He can score and get in
your face. Hes one of the reasons why
Boston won the Stanley Cup.
Head Coach Dan Bylsma (Pitts-
burgh), The best coach Ive ever
had.
All-Time Great Wayne Gretzky
(Edmonton, Los Angeles, St. Louis,
N.Y. Rangers), I grew up an Oilers fan.
Theres a reason why they call him

customized coaching ap-
proach.
Depending on the sched-
ule and travel, a lot of times
if a guy is playing a lot on the
road its tough to work on
things in practice because
you dont want to burn them
out, Bales said. Thats
when you have to stay on top
of habits and game prep-
aration.
But in the end there is only
one goal no matter who the
netminder is.
My job is to keep these
guys progressing and get
them to the next level, Bales
said.
How a goaltender plays in
a game may be a good in-
dication of how close they
are to reaching the next level
and, more immediately, what
Bales needs to address in
practice.
I look for tendencies and
even strengths that we want
to emphasize, he said. Its
not always working on weak-
nesses. You want to continue
to improve on strengths too.
Mike Bales began laying
the groundwork for his career
as a goaltender coach in the
early 1990s.
Bales was a fifth round
draft choice of the Boston
Bruins in 1990, and two years
later he stepped on the ice
with one of his childhood
idols Andy Moog.
Moog was in the later
stages of his career with the
Bruins, and Bales studied the
veteran goal-
tender while
they were on
the ice to-
gether for
practice.
He was a
technical
guy for back
then and he
was a really good skater for a
goaltender of that era, Bales
said. A lot of guys struggled
with that back then, but
Moog was really good at it.
Bales went on to have an
18-year pro career, which
included 23 NHL games.
But it was that first impres-
sion left by Moog that trans-
formed Bales into a student
of the game.
Today, Bales is a teacher.
He is the goaltender devel-
opment coach for the Pitts-
burgh Penguins a job that
requires him to spend most
of his time working with
netminders in Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton and in Wheeling,
along with scouting amateur
goaltenders.
The post is similar to a
pitching coach for a baseball
team, Bales said.
Teams are starting to
realize you need to have
goaltending coaches in the
American Hockey League,
he said. They all have them
at the NHL level, and typical-
ly the NHL goaltending
coach would come and work
with the AHL team. But
theres so much pressure and
emphasis on winning up
there that those coaches just
dont have the time.
Bales fills that void one
that is admittedly important,
by working with Brad Thies-
sen and Scott Munroe at
Wilkes-Barre, and Patrick
Killeen in Wheeling.
Call it a specialized job for
a specialized position.
What I do really depends
on the individual, Bales
said. At Wilkes-Barre, you
have two guys who are veter-
ans at this level, so its less
work on technical things and
more about the mental as-
pects and making sure they
stay sharp.
But that doesnt mean
Bales can coach Thiessen and
Munroe the same way. When
Thiessen started 10 straight
games this season, Bales had
to make sure Munroe stayed
sharp and ready to go when
he got the call. Being in a
backup position is difficult
for a goaltender, he said,
because they need to be in
games to stay sharp.
In those situations, you
have to treat your practices
like games. Treat every puck
like its overtime in a game
and you have to stop every-
thing, Bales said.
Even a goaltender that
starts every night requires a
Before Bales was hired by
the Penguins this summer,
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton never
had a goaltending coach.
Gilles Meloche, who serves
in the capacity for Pitts-
burgh, came down to work
with the AHL goaltenders
periodically throughout the
season, but that was about it.
Having a coach of their
own is something Munroe
and Thiessen feel is a benefit
from several perspectives.
For Munroe who has had
goaltending coaches with just
about every team hes played
on, said Bales is another set
of eyes and ears that under-
stands the mindset of those
who play between the pipes.
Hes really good to bounce
things off of and use some
terminology that he under-
stands, Munroe said. But
having a goalie coach is as
much for the mental part of
the game as it is for the phys-
ical side. Its nice to have a
guy you can talk to.
Thiessen said that while
coaches work with forwards
and defensemen, goaltenders
can sometimes get lost in the
shuffle. With Bales on board,
he said, thats not an issue.
To have a specialized
coach is nice, Thiessen said.
Hes a guy thats been
through it all and you can
address different situations
that happen during the sea-
son because hes been there.
The benefits even extend
to head coach John Hynes,
who said the uniqueness of
the position requires a coach
who has experience playing
in net.
Goaltenders have a differ-
ent set of pressures and cir-
cumstances than other play-
ers, Hynes said, and if a
coach never played the posi-
tion they dont truly under-
stand the intricacies in-
volved.
You can coach the goalten-
ders effort, how they battle
for pucks, rebound control
and even confidence, Hynes
said. But whether a guys
getting beat because of his
glove or blocker and how to
fix those areas, thats where
Mike comes in. He can have
that technical talk with the
goalies and he can help prob-
lem-fix.
Munroe added that be-
cause the goaltending posi-
tion has become so impor-
tant and increasingly special-
ized, a coach dedicated to
netminders is a necessity
today.
Goaltending coaches are
part of the reason why NHL
teams have been able to
make deep runs in the play-
offs with a relatively un-
known goaltender.
Munroe points to goalten-
ders such as Antti Niemi,
who guided the Chicago
Blackhawks to Stanley Cup
championship as a rookie,
and Michael Leighton, who
led the Philadelphia Flyers to
the final despite having no
NHL postseason experience.
These guys are coming up
from seemingly out of no-
where and taking their teams
on these long playoff runs,
Munroe said. The goaltend-
ing position is so important
and theres so much focus on
it now, and thats why you
need that extra coach to work
with those guys.
Penguins goaltender development coach Mike Bales is helping young
netminders hopeful of NHL dreams.
From bottom to top
By TOMVENESKY

Penguins goaltending development coach Mike Bales played pro hockey for 18 years before
entering the coaching ranks.
Since being sent down by Wilkes-
Barre/Scranton on Nov. 8, Cody Chupp
has five points (three goals, two as-
sists) in four games with the Nailers.
Chupp has a goal in three straight
games heading into this weekend.
Chris Barton also remains hot, with
seven points in his last three games,
including three goals. Barton continues
to lead the Nailers with nine goals and
17 points in 11 games.

Hot Chupp and Barton
lead the way for Nailers
One of the trends in goal-
tending over the years has
seen certain geographic re-
gions seeming to churn out
top netminders in droves.
It began in the 1980s, when
Patrick Roy joined the Mon-
treal Canadiens and opened
the floodgates for French-
Canadian netminders into the
NHL.
Years later goaltenders
from Finland took over the
league, led by Calgarys Mik-
ka Kiprusoff, Minnesotas
Niklas Backstrom and, most
recently, Pekka Rinne of
Nashville.
And now, according to
Penguins goaltender devel-
opment coach Mike Bales,
Sweden is becoming a goalie
hotbed with players such as
Henrik Lundqvist (Rangers),
Jonas Gustavsson (Toronto)
and Jhonas Enroth (Buffalo).
It does run in trends,
Bales said. In Finland, for
example, those guys have an
advantage because they were
one of the first countries to
have goalie coaches for young
players.
The Quebec thing was a
trend for a while, and lately
its been more of the Finnish
and Swedish guys. But theres
good goalies everywhere, its
just a matter of finding them.

Theres more than just steaks,
chops and hamburger in the deer
that luckyhunters will dragout of
the woods during the two-week
rifle season.
Sure, the aforementioned op-
tions are standard fare when it
comes to getting a deer butch-
ered, but there are plenty of other
ways to transform venison into
table fare.
Kevin Naugle, owner of Nau-
gles Custom Butchering and
Deer Processing in Hunlock
Creek, offers hunters 15 choices
when they bring a deer into his
shop. In addition to the basic
steaks, chops and hamburger,
Naugle makes venison hot dogs,
kielbasa, salami and red hots a
smoked bratwurst, among other
things.
The choices have grown and
hunters like the variety, Naugle
said. We even have people that
get their deer butchered else-
where but bring us some of the
boneless meat for specialty
items. Thats grown tremendous-
ly.
Those specialty items include
kielbasa filled with cheddar
cheese or a combination of jala-
peno and cheese and even
cheese-filled hot dogs.
Naugle has been processing
deer for 28 years and has added
equipment to his shop to offer
more varieties. While there may
be 15 different choices now, that
list is likely to growinthe near fu-
ture.
Theres going to be more,
Naugle said. Were always look-
ing to try new products.
The larger selection means ex-
tra work for Naugle and his em-
ployees during deer season, who
workinthe shopfrom7 a.m. to10
p.m. With four refrigerated cool-
ers and two walk-in freezers, cus-
tomers will have all of their meat
ready to pick up in five to seven
days, he said.
And while Naugle and his em-
ployees work long hours to make
sure the meat is ready in a timely
manner, there are steps that hun-
ters can take to help speed up the
Venison processing has turned into more than just steaks
In addition to favorites, local
butcher also makes hot dogs,
kielbasa, salami and red hots.

AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER
Kevin Naugle skins a buck in his shop. Naugle processes several
hundred deer each season. See VENISON, Page 13C
Naugle processes several hundred
deer each season, and it doesnt
leave him much time to hunt. He
does get out in the morning on
opening day but has to be back
before the first successful hunters
arrive.
Despite a lack of time in the
woods, Naugle has a pretty good
perspective of just how well Penn-
sylvanias deer herd is doing based
on what comes into his shop.
The recently concluded archery
season was a successful one, he
said, with a lot of heavy-bodied
bucks with large antlers.
Its a big improvement from past
years, Naugle said. The heaviest
archery buck brought in weighed
215 pounds field-dressed, which
would put it between 250-260
pounds live weight.
Weve had a lot of very huge
bucks come in, and my back feels
every bit of it.

Hunting opportunities
arent limited to deer in some
parts of the northeast.
Hunters who have a valid
bear license can harvest a bear
during the first week of the ri-
fle deer season during an ex-
tended season. In Wildlife
Management Units 3D, 4C, 4D,
4E, 5B and 5C the extended
bear season runs from Nov. 30
to Dec. 3.
In WMUs 3A, 3C and por-
tions of 3B and 2G the extend-
ed bear season is open from
Nov. 28 to Dec. 3 (check the
2011-12 Hunting and Trapping
Digest for specific locations).
PGC spokesman Tim Con-
way said the extended seasons
are designedtooffer additional
hunting opportunities and re-
duce the bear population in ar-
eas where complaints are on
the rise.
Its a great opportunity for
those deer hunters who have a
valid bear license, Conway
said. There are a lot of bears in
these extended season areas,
and were hoping they harvest
some that are causingnuisance
problems in the area.
As long as the weather coop-
erates, Conway predicted
bears will still be very active
during the extended season
due to the heavy mast crop of
beech nuts in the woods.
The presence of thousands
of deer hunters in the woods
will help as well, he said.
The first two days and the
Saturday when the masses of
hunters are out there could get
the bears moving, Conway
said. The extended season is
one excellent opportunity to
harvest a bear.

A lot of work goes into growing that trophy set
of antlers that lures hunters into the woods during
the two-week rifle deer.
It takes years of effort, in fact, combining genet-
ics, nutrition and age. Even the bucks mother
plays an important role in the development of
antlers.
Its a complicated process one that Don Wagn-
er has watched every day of the year as manager
of the Penn State Deer Research Center in State
College.
The 22-acre fenced enclosure is home to 80
white-tailed deer, including bucks that top the
200-inch range in Boone and Crockett scoring.
Working daily with deer has given Wagner an
inside look at the factors that go into producing a
big buck. Heres his take on the three most impor-
tant areas when it comes to antler growth:
Genetics
The research center has conducted extensive
studies on genetics and antler growth, and Wagn-
er said does contribute more to antler growth of
their fawns than the males. Hes seen it firsthand
with the breeding program in place at the center.
If you take a doe that has produced offspring
that develop into large bucks, and breed it with a
small, inferior buck, shell still produce fawns that
GENETICS ARE ONE AREA that you can do the least about when
it comes to managing deer in the wild.

The number of large bucks in the region appears high for the upcoming rifle deer season, which begins on Nov. 28.
Many factors in determining size of bucks antlers
By TOM VENESKY
See RACK, Page 14C
Its a pretty good indication of
just how important the first day
of deer season is to the approxi-
mately 800,000 hunters who
will hit the woods on Monday,
Nov. 28: On the homepage of
the Pennsylvania Game Com-
missions website, there is a
clock counting down the days,
hours, minutes and seconds to
the first day of the rifle deer
season.
The countdown began on
Tuesday.
Ive said for a long time that
the Monday after Thanksgiving
is Pennsylvanias unofficial holi-
day, said PGC spokesman Jerry
Feaser.
Many school districts close
for the day, countless vacations
are scheduled around deer sea-
son and there is even a union in
central Pennsylvania whose
contract includes a day off for
the Monday after Thanksgiving.
Even the PGCs headquarters
in Harrisburg transforms into a
barren place on the opening day
of deer season.
We usually draw straws,
Feaser said, adding that those
who filled their tags in archery
or the early muzzleloader sea-
sons are the ones that come to
work, along with essential per-
sonnel such as dispatchers and
media relations staff.
We feel the same anticipation
for the first day that the nearly
800,000 hunters feel, Feaser
said.
In the northeast, there is
plenty of reason for anticipation.
Spokesman Tim Conway said
based on reports from local
Wildlife Conservation Officers,
deer numbers are better than
theyve been in more than five
years.
Theyre seeing a lot of nice
deer as well, Conway said.
Some are using the word slam-
Plenty of anticipation for start of deer season
By TOM VENESKY
Deer season will open with a five-
day, antlered deer-only season in
Wildlife Management Units (WMUs)
2A, 2C, 2D, 2E, 2F, 2G, 3B, 3C, 4B, 4D
and 4E from Nov. 28-Dec. 2. It is
followed in these WMUs by seven
days of concurrent, antlered and
antlerless deer hunting beginning
Dec. 3, and continuing through Dec.
10. The rest of the state follows the
two-week concurrent, antlered and
antlerless season Nov. 28-Dec. 10
that has been in place since 2001.
Hunters must wear 250 square
inches of fluorescent orange materi-
al on the head, chest and back
combined at all times while afield
during the seasons. Its also illegal to
hunt, chase or disturb deer within
150 yards of any occupied building
without the occupants permission if
they are using a firearm, or 50 yards
if they are using a bow or crossbow.
All hunters who take a deer must fill
out their harvest tag and attach it to
the deers ear before moving the
carcass. The tag can be secured to
the base of the ear with a string
drawn very tightly, if the hunter
plans to have the deer mounted.
Cutting a slit in the ear to attach the
tag will require additional work by a
taxidermist.
Successful hunters have 10 days to
report deer. Hunters can report their
kill using the postage paid card
supplied with their 2011-12 Digest, or
online using the Internet at
www.pgc.state.pa.us, or calling
1-855-PAHUNT1 (1-855-724-8681).

S ervingthediscretehu nterforover12 years
mers to describe the bucks
theyve been seeing.
Weather is the main factor
when it comes to making the
openingdaya success or a bust. A
rainy, fog-laden day reduces visi-
bility and forces many hunters in-
doors, Feaser said, while a snow-
fall makes deer easier to spot and
track, thus keepinghunters inthe
woods.
Aside from rain and snow,
there is another aspect specifi-
callya behavior that factors into
the rifle season: the rut.
In the northeast region, Con-
waysaidthat kickedinduringthe
last week of archery season and
could continue into the rifle sea-
son.
The deer are very active right
now, and with that activity and
the overall numbers, its probably
going to end up being a good sea-
son, he said.
DEER
process and insure that the veni-
son is top quality.
Cleanliness is the top priority,
Naugle said.
When field dressing a deer, its
important that the heart and
lungs are removed from the
body cavity and it is washed out
and cooled. The hide should be
left on, Naugle added, and if the
deer should be hung with the
head up so the blood can drain
out of the chest cavity.
Youlookat theold-timehunt-
ing photos and they hang their
deer from the neck, Naugle
said. Thats the right way to do
it.
I do inspect every deer that
comes inandI have turnedsome
people away if the meat isnt up
to our standards.
Cleanliness, proper field dress-
ing and leaving the hide on are
easy ways to make sure the veni-
son is up to par, and there is one
moresimplestepthat hunters can
follow: bring their deer to the
processor in a timely manner.
Its alright to leave it hang if
the weather is cool, but dont
throw it in the trunk and drive
around for days with it, Naugle
said.

Joe Shenk wasnt going to bear
hunt this year.
It wasnt until his brother, Ger-
ald, suggested on Friday that he
should drive up and join him at
their Sullivan County camp that
Shenk decided to buy a license at
the last minute and head up.
It was a good choice.
By 7:30 a.m. on the Saturday
opener, Shenk saw two bears and
shot the second a male that had
a live weight of 171 pounds.
Today was the first time I ever
saw a bear, much less two, in the
woods during bear season, said
Shenk, who resides in Shermans-
dale, just outside of Harrisburg.
My brother saw two bears at
camp the day before and said I
needed to come up. Im glad I
did.
Shenkwas oneof manysuccess-
ful bear hunters in the area to take
advantage of the sunny weather
on Saturdays opening day.
Dan Balliet of Drums has hunt-
ed bears since 1972 without any
luck.
That changed at 8:30 a.m. on
Saturday when he spotted a large
bear on State Game Lands 187 in
Dennison Township. Balliet was
walking along a trail when he no-
ticed a bear nearby in thick brush.
He moved ahead of the bear and
was able to get a clean shot when
it stepped into an open area.
For all thebears Iveseeninthe
woods, this one
looked like a big,
black ball, Balliet
said. This region
has some of the
largest black bears
intheworld, andI al-
ways wanted to get
onenice, largePenn-
sylvania black bear.
This might be the
only one I ever get.
Balliets bear a
female dressed at
216 pounds and had
an estimated live
weight of 255
pounds.
The bear was
tagged and also had
acollar oneof 50inthestatethat
the Pennsylvania Game Commis-
sion collared last year to track the
movements of bruins in suburban
areas. Balliet turned the collar in
to the PGC when he brought the
bear to the check station at the
agencys regional office in Dallas.
Information from the bears tags
indicated it was trapped in May in
the Crestwood Industrial Park by
Wildlife Conservation Officer
Dave Allen. At that time the bear
weighed 175 pounds.
Sixty seven bears were brought
to the Dallas check station on Sat-
urday, slightly above last years
opening day total of 59. PGCbiol-
ogist Kevin Wenner said most of
the bears were harvested in State
Game Lands 57 in the Forkston
Township area, and Davidson
Township on State
Game Lands 13 in
Sullivan County.
Wenner said the
heaviest bear
brought in on Satur-
day had a dressed
weight of 401
pounds and an esti-
mated live weight of
473 pounds. It was
taken in Huntington
Mills, Luzerne
County.
In his district of
southern Luzerne
County, Allen said
hunting pressure
was light through-
out the day with
most of the activity on game
lands.
This years bear season is four
days long, Nov. 19 and Nov. 21-23.
In certain Wildlife Management
Units an extended season will be
heldfromNov. 28toDec. 3or Nov.
30 to Dec. 3, depending on the
unit.
Allen is hoping for a good har-
vest in his district because the
bear population is high and so are
complaints, he said.
The amount of human/bear
conflicts is rising due to the fact
theres more people, Allen said.
Idliketoseemorehunter partici-
pation.
So would WCOs JimJolley and
Jerry Kapral, who also cover Lu-
zerne County.
Jolley, who covers the northern
part of the county, said hunter
numbers on Saturday were on par
with previous seasons, but many
of them didnt stay in the woods
all day.
Todaywas aperfect dayweath-
er-wise for hunting, Jolley said. I
hope it picks up.
Kaprals district includes the
Wyoming Valley. He said hunting
pressurewaslight andthingswere
quiet as far regarding violations.
Kapral also said he didnt re-
ceive any reports of hunters bag-
ging the bear that passed through
Edwardsville on Nov. 1.
He said the bruin may have
denned up.
Bears here are denningupnow
due to a lack of food, Kapral said.
Food sources such as acorns are
pretty much exhausted in some
areas.
Like Allen, Kapral is hoping
that some of the bears generating
complaints in urban areas are har-
vested by hunters this season.
People dont want to tolerate
bears anymore, he said. Id rath-
er see themharvested by a hunter
who will utilize it rather than get
hit by a car or shot by someone
and run off.

turnout tobelargebucks, Wagn-
er said. The doe has equal or
more influence on the genetic
characteristics of antlers.
As a result, genetics in wild
deer are hard to manage. Antler
restrictions mayplaya small role,
Wagner said, but its the doe that
is the determining factor.
Genetics are one area that you
can do the least about when it
comes to managing deer in the
wild, Wagner said. But our
gene pool in Pennsylvania has a
lot of diversity, especially with
the far-reaching dispersals of
bucks. Theres a good mix of ge-
netics out there.
Age
The general consensus among
hunters is antler restrictions are
producing larger-racked bucks by
allowing the small ones to live
longer. That may be true to a cer-
tain extent, Wagner said, but most
Pennsylvania bucks still dont live
long enough to reach their full po-
tential.
Antler restrictions generally al-
low the one-and-a-half year old
bucks to survive a hunting season,
but they are usually only gaining
an extra year before they become
legal to harvest.
Were just at the tip of the iceb-
erg of whats possible with antler
growth, Wagner said.
In order for a buck to achieve
monster status, it needs to reach
the four to six year age range.
Four to six years old is when a
whitetail peaks, Wagner said.
With antler restrictions, were
protecting those yearlings and get-
ting themto two years old, but its
still no where near the age they
need to become a monster buck.
While it would be difficult to
achieve statewide, Wagner said
there are things hunters can do
when managing their own proper-
ties to increase the age of bucks.
While antler restrictions consider
points, Wagner saidspreadrestric-
tions will also help bucks live long-
er. Most yearling bucks have a
spread that is inside its ears, he
said.
Even a buck with five points on
one side, if its spread is still inside
the ears thats probably not at that
older age class yet, Wagner said.
If the spread extends past the
years, Wagner said its likely that
buckis at least twoyears old. Inor-
der to narrow the age down even
more, physical characteristics
shouldbeconsidered. Wagner sug-
gested looking at the width of the
neck, chest andshoulders todeter-
mine if its an older buck.
With younger bucks their legs
will look longer because theyre
not as thick throughout the body,
he said.
Nutrition
This is a big factor when it
comes toantler growthone that
Wagner has researcheddowntoa
science. A buck needs a diet that
consists of 16 percent protein. In
the early stages of antler growth,
protein is the main requirement,
but achieving that 16 percent lev-
el can be difficult in large forests.
Food plots do help, Wagner
said, but supplemental or winter
feeding doesnt give a buck a con-
sistent diet to have much of an
impact.
Factors that occur throughout
the year affect antler growth, and
that begins with the rut.
Bucks wont eat much and
theyre always on the move, so
they lose some body weight.
Then you get into winter and the
food just isnt there, so they may
lose 10 to 30 percent of their
weight, Wagner said. The fol-
lowing spring, they will work to
regain their body weight first and
whats left goes into antler
growth.
If a buck is able to make it
through the winter without suf-
fering much weight loss, it will
have less rebuilding to do in the
spring and it can direct more nu-
trients to antler growth.
But evengrowingaset of antlers
can be draining on a buck. Protein
is utilized in the early stages of
growth April and May. In the lat-
er stages of antler growthusually
August Wagner saidmoreminer-
als are needed.
A buck will take minerals from
its skeletal system specifically
the ribs and transfer it to the an-
tlers, hesaid. That helps withan-
tler density.
After theantlerslosetheir velvet
usually in September bucks
wont fight for several weeks.
The skeletal system needs to
recover from that last push of an-
tler growth, Wagner said. Its a
process that really occurs all year
long.
Other factors
When the buck was born has a
lot to do with the size of its first
few sets of antlers, according to
Wagner. Male fawns born early
in the year have a head start, and
that helps produce a better set of
antlers, he said.
If we have fawns born in July
and August, theyre almost al-
ways spikes or small three and
four-points, Wagner said. As
they get older, their racks catch
up.
Even the health of the mother
impacts that first set of antlers.
Years ago we had a doe that
had intestinal parasites. It was
bred to a 200-inch buck, Wagn-
er said. The first year, its fawn
produced a three-inch spike. At
three years old, the buck was a10-
point that wouldve scored in the
160s.
The health and nutrition levels
of the mother while she is nursing
her fawns will showup in that first
set of antlers.
Injuries to the body will also im-
pact antler growth, evenif its early
in the year. Wagner said the bucks
body will use minerals and nutri-
ents to heal the injury, taking it
away from development of the an-
tler on the opposite side of the
wound.
If a buck in the spring gets hit
on its right leg, its usually the op-
positesideantler thats deformed,
Wagner said.
When the antlers are in velvet
they are susceptible to damage as
well. Evenalight bumponavelvet-
covered antler can cause severe
nerve damage and lead to a defor-
mity in the rack.
Damage can also occur to the
rack after it is hardened. Wagner
has seeninstances where anantler
was broken off at the base of the
skull, damaging the pedicle (tis-
sue) resultingina deformedantler
for several years.
When the antlers are growing
the buck can feel them with the
nerves. But what I noticed here is
in that last week of growth the
nerves die off and the bucks get a
little careless, Wagner said.
Thats when you see some dam-
age occur. I dont know how a
large buck in the wild makes it
through with an un-damaged
rack.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. Playing
for the first time since an assist-

It was business as usual for the

allegations against assistant
coach Bernie Fine.
Syracuse placed Fine on ad-
ministrative leave in light of the

lested two former ball boys for
years. Fine dismissed the allega-
tions as patently false, and
expressed confidence he would
be vindicated.

69-33 victory over Wofford on
Saturday night.
The Badgers (3-0) came in
shooting 52 percent from3-point
range, but they often settled for
outside shots early in the game
and opened 2 of 9 frombeyond
the arc. Wisconsin led just 13-10
midway through the first half,
then started playing more of an
inside-outside game and began to
pull away.

MANCHESTER, New Hamp-
shire For the second straight
night Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
needed a shootout to decide a
winner. And for the second
straight game the Penguins were
forced to settle for a single point.
Jordan Nolan scored the game-
winner in the fourth round of the
shootout to lift the Manchester
Monarchs to a 4-3 win in front of
7,508at theVerizonWireless Are-
na.
Friday night the Penguins
dropped a 3-2 shootout decision
to the Portland Pirates. That loss
ended their season-opening
eight-game road winning streak.
I think it was a really challeng-
ing game, said Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton head coach John
Hynes. Credit to Manchester.
They played really hard. They re-
ally pushed us in certain areas of
the game.
David Meckler and Marc-
Andre Cliche were also success-
ful in the penalty shots while Ja-
son Williams was the only mem-
ber of the Pens to beat Manches-
ter goaltender Jeff Zatkoff.
The Monarchs carried the ma-
jority of the play in the opening
20 minutes, outshooting the vis-
itors by a 12-7 count, but it was
the Penguins who emerged from
the period with a 1-0 lead.
A pair of Monarchs penalties
led to a two-man advantage for
the Penguins in the waning mo-
ments of the period. The second
infractionledtoanoffensivezone
faceoff with 13 seconds remain-
ing. The Penguins controlled the
draw, setting up Niko Dimitrakos
for a blue-line blast that sailed
cleanly through traffic and past
Zatkoff with 4.4 seconds left in
the period. Williams and Ben
Street drew assists on Dimitra-
kos fifth of the season.
Manchester survived another
extended two-man disadvantage
to open the second before tying
the game 3:36 into the period.
Dwight King came up with the
puck deep in the Pens end and
quickly fed to the front where
Linden Vey redirected it past
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton goalten-
der Brad Theissen to even things
at 1.
Some good offensive zone
pressure allowed the Monarchs
to grab a 2-1 lead with 4:08 left in
the second when Andrew Camp-
bells shot from the point beat
Theissen high to the blocker
side.
However, only 67 seconds later
the Pens answered as Eric Tan-
gradi forced a turnover deep in
the Monarchs end. The puck
came free to Street who beat Zat-
koff high on the glove side to tie
the game at 2. For Street, the goal
marked his fourth in the last six
games after going scoreless in his
first eight games of the season.
I like our response when we
went through some adversity,
said Hynes.
The Monarchs lurchedback in-
to the lead midway through the
third on a controversial power-
play goal. Joey Mullins shot from
the point was deflected into the
pads of Theissen, who thought
he had it covered. The referee
ruled the puck was still loose and
Jordan Nolan was there to poke it
over thelinegivingtheMonarchs
a 3-2 lead.
But for the second time in the
game the Pens had a quick an-
swer. Just 1:16 later a Robert Bor-
tuzzo shot from the blue line
found the back of the net and the
game was even at 3.

W
ith the high holidays of con-
sumption beginning this week,
its a good time to examine a
couple of commonly held beliefs that
seem to encourage opening our wallets
as an exercise in patriotism.
First up is the seemingly unavoidable
statement that consumer spending is
about 70 percent of the U.S. economy.
Unless stripped out by editors I try
my hardest you will read something
like this is in nearly every national
story about retail sales, gross domestic
product or other of the myriad reports
that pour out of Washington weekly. Is
it true?
No, says Michael Mandel, Chief
Economic Strategist for the Progres-
sive Policy Institute and former chief
economist for Business Week maga-
zine. He points out that the outlays
that go into government estimates of
consumer spending include lots of stuff
that isnt, such as Medicare and Med-
icaid, which are in fact government
spending, or money spent by nonprofit
organizations and political campaigns.
Does it matter?
This is not harmless, Mandel told
me this week, because, This leads to
thinking about the economy the wrong
way.
And that leads to what Mandel con-
tends is a myth: You cannot have
growth unless the consumer is spend-
ing.
The kind of spending matters, too,
Mandel believes. When you carry that
new television out of Best Buy this
weekend, you will have supported the
domestic economy to the extent that
some of the profit is converted to the
salary of the helpful salesperson; he or
she will take that money and perhaps
spend some on lunch. If enough people
do that, the restaurant may be able to
hire additional wait staff, and their
spending may help the local jeweler.
And on and on.
Thats great, but what about the
money Best Buy pays to the overseas
manufacturer? That, Mandel contends,
is lost to our economy, even though the
entire purchase price is counted in
GDP.
Strip out the items that dont belong
in the category and adjust for imported
goods and Mandel says consumer
spending comes in at around 40 per-
cent of the economy, a figure that is
consistent with what other 70-percent
skeptics say, and more in line with
other developed nations.
So if indiscriminate spending wont
drive the economy, what will? Mandel
says production, an area that has been
getting far too little attention, possibly
because theres such a focus on goosing
spending. What we want to do is
spend on things that add to produc-
tion, he said, and thats not limited to
factories.
Research and development and edu-
cation, which he terms an investment
in future earnings, fit the category. A
barber cutting hair is production; build-
ing a shopping mall that sells largely
imported goods is not.
Mandel goes one step further, and
what he says rings true to my post-
World War II ears; People have to start
thinking of their primary role as pro-
ducers rather than consumers. Thats
what I grew up with, and if I didnt get
the message from my Depression-era
parents it rang through loud and clear
in President John F. Kennedys chal-
lenge to ask not what your country
can do for you exhortation.
Does this mean wed be better off as
a nation of misers? Or course not, but
when your heart begins to race at the
thought of that big screen hanging on
your living room wall, it might be wise
to make sure buying it doesnt put you
in the hole.
Borrowing the money we spend is a
formula that will bring ruin in record
time, and already has for too many
Americans.

BLACK FRIDAY IS
approaching and that
means retailers will
be putting out their
best sales of the
season on big-ticket
items to lure custom-
ers to their registers.
The Black Friday ads will be in The
Times Leader throughout the week,
mainly on Thanksgiving day, but I can
offer you a sneak peak, obtained
through a variety of sources, on what
you can expect when you brave the
cold and dark Thursday night or Fri-
day morning.

inch, 1080p resolution, 60 Hz, LCD

more your size, the stores have the
same brands 720p resolution LCD

ics sale kicks off at 12:01 a.m.
Best Buy also has a great deal on
televisions. Line up early to snag a
Sharp 42 inch LCD1080p HDTV for

hours before doors open. If you really
want to go big, get an LG 3.7 cubic
feet, nine-cycle front-load washing

HANNOVER, Germany Wear
Milk? Anke Domaske says why not.
The 28-year-old German is the de-
signer of an award-winning newtextile
made entirely frommilk thats environ-
mentally friendly as well as soothing to
people with skin allergies. Called
Qmilch, it drapes and folds like silk,
but can be washed and dried like cot-
ton.
The biochemist and fashion design-
er has so far used the fabric only to
make dresses for her ownMCCfashion
line. But next year Domaske has plans
tobeginmass producingandseveral
companies have already expressed in-
terest in using the fabric.
Qmilch a combination of quality
and the German word for milk won
the innovation award of Germanys
Textile Research Association, which
recognized it as a new, sustainable fi-
ber that could revolutionize the cloth-
ing industry.
Currently, apparel depends heavily
on byproducts from oil, or natural re-
sources such as water used in the
thousands of gallons to produce just a
bolt of cotton.
We know that everything that is
based on oil has a limit, that materials
likecottonthat takeupalot of land, wa-
ter and chemicals are limited, so we
need to think about how we can pro-
duce fabrics and textiles in the future,
said Klaus Jansen, who heads the Tex-
tile Research Association.
She has showed us how this can
work.

ROME They line up at soup
kitchens by the thousands. Individu-
al debt is rising, savings are eroding
and many young people have simply
given up, staying home without
studying or even looking for a job.
They are Italys invisible poor, un-
seen by tourists, ignored by the coun-
trys fat-cat politicians and living in a
reality thats a far cry from former
Premier Silvio Berlusconis descrip-
tion of an affluent country where the
restaurants are full.
Or in the words of Francesa Zucca-
ri, who runs a soup kitchen in Rome:
There is another city out there
where people cant get to the end of
the month.
This is the Italy facing Mario Mon-
ti, the economics professor tapped to
form an interim technocratic govern-
ment after Berlusconi was forced to
resign last weekend. International
markets andthe EuropeanCommuni-
ty decided the 75-year-old media mo-
gul lacked the political clout to enact
needed reforms to head off a debt cri-
sis and get the economy moving.
Monti wonsupport fromItalys two
largest parties, but the question re-
mains whether politicians will back
his expected painful reformmeasures
at the risk of social peace.
On the one hand, Italys elite manu-
facturers are girding for an increase
in luxury exports and some wealthy
Italians are looking to move their
money into the real-estate markets in
New York, Miami and Paris.
On the other, the state statistics in-
stitute ISTAT says 8 million Italians,
almost 14 percent of the population,
are living in relative poverty.
While tourists may not see the
poor as they visit Tuscanys rolling
hills, Venices waterways or the Amal-
fi coasts picturesque villages, they
are increasingly visible on Italian city
streets.
Many Italians have begun taking
their money out of banks, fearing re-
ports that measures to help fight the
sovereign debt crisis might include
deductions from bank accounts, as
was done in the 1990s.

Millers Holding Corp. were worried.
At a Jan. 26, 2011 board meeting to
review business plans for the coming
year, managers suggested a newprod-
uct line was not a good long-term fit
for the company built on providing in-
surance to the agricultural industry.
Independent directors were con-
cerned about the insurers lack of
scale, a market that was holding
downpremiumprices andpressure on
the bottom line from expenses associ-
ated with being a small public compa-
ny. The discussion was colored by the
companys failure to meet perform-
ance goals in two of the previous three
years. When the meeting broke up it
was agreed the challenges facing the
company demanded immediate atten-
tion.
These and other observations that
followaretakenfromdocuments Penn
Millers filedinSeptember withthe Se-
curities and Exchange Commission
about its proposed merger with the
much larger ACEAmerican Insurance
Co. The companys report onthe back-
ground of the merger reveals a man-
agement group rushing to complete
the deal which was not a merger
but a sale in the face of ballooning
claims, a persistent soft market for
premium price increases, potentially
hostile investors and the threat of a
downgrade in its investment quality
rating.
The tone is far different from the
confidence expressed in the prospec-
tus for the stock sale in October 2009.
We believe we are positioning the
companytotakeadvantageof theprof-
itable growth opportunities we antici-
pate will occur when prices increase
during the hard market, the docu-
ment read.
A hard market is one in which in-
surers findit easytoraisepremiums. A
soft market is the opposite. The insur-
ance business usually moves in cycles
between the two, but the financial cri-
sis that began in 2007 disrupted the
typical pattern.
Company CEO Douglas Gaudet
saidat thetimehewas confident every
one of the 6,095,000 shares being of-
fered at $10 each would be sold. That,
Gaudet said, wouldprovidethecapital
needed for Penn Millers to grow.
Mounting concerns
At the next meeting, held on March
Penn Millers Insurance, headquarted on North Franklin Street in Wilkes-Barre, is being sold to Swiss-based ACE Ltd.

23, 2011, management and the
board were looking in opposite
directions. Gaudet and Chief Fi-
nancial Michael O. Banks, noting
that PennMillers had$20million
in excess capital beyond what
was needed for operations, sug-
gested either returning the mon-
eytoinvestors or usingit tomake
an acquisition.
But directors, concerned that
performance projections were in-
adequate, questioned whether
thecompanyshouldremaininde-
pendent. Management was in-
structed to study both acquisi-
tion opportunities and to com-
pare the value of remaining inde-
pendent with linking up with a
strategic partner.
As would several more meet-
ings, this one endedwithanexec-
utive session from which man-
agement was excluded.
Two developments in April
would push the board to look
more closely at selling the com-
pany. On April 21, Gaudet and
Banks learned that Penn Millers
A- financial strength rating from
A.M. Best would likely be af-
firmed, but with a negative out-
look due to the companys low
profitability compared to a peer
group of larger firms. Any reduc-
tion in the rating could lead to
higher borrowing and reinsu-
rance costs.
Then, on April 29, a private eq-
uity fund with a history of at-
tempting hostile takeovers dis-
closed that it had purchased ap-
proximately 8 percent of Penn
Millers outstanding shares.
In response, at a May 9 meet-
ing the board decided to retain
the law firm of Ballard Spahr as
special counsel to independent
directors and to seek a financial
advisor. By mid-May the board
contracted with Willis Capital
Markets &Advisory andappoint-
ed a special committee of five di-
rectors Heather Acker, F. Ken-
neth Ackerman Jr., Dorrance Be-
lin, Donald Pfizer and John Cole-
man to work with them and
Ballard.
An intense series of meetings
followed; by May 21 Willis had
developed a list of 27 potential
buyers. Some pressure was re-
lieved when Best, after being in-
formed of the companys poten-
tial sale, affirmed Penn Millers
A- rating with a stable outlook.
On May 27, for the first time, the
boarddiscussedatimelinefor the
sale process.
By mid-June Willis had con-
tacted 49 potential buyers and
several of them had indicated in-
terest in buying Penn Millers. A
month later, six potential bids
had been received, with valua-
tions between$15.95 and$22 per
share, all hefty premiums over
the $10 initial offering price.
Significant catastrophic loss-
es in the second quarter and a
continued challenging sales mar-
ket led the special committee to
reaffirmits recommendationthat
a sale appeared to be the best al-
ternative to prevent destruction
of shareholder value By early
August a final bid deadline of the
25th was set.
Concerned that word of an im-
pending deal would leak, the
company issued a statement on
August 15 saying Penn Millers
was reviewing strategic alterna-
tives aimed at enhancing share-
holder value. The statement ac-
knowledgedthe companys small
size, the soft market for premi-
ums and increased catastrophic
storm activity.
Final push
Management made one last at-
tempt to sway the board toward
independence. At an August 20
meeting, Gaudet presented a
planthat calledfor major restruc-
turing, expense reductions and
significant cuts in staffing. Com-
mittee members were not im-
pressed; they believed the plan
would not provide much value
and carried high risks to share-
holders.
By August 26 PennMillers had
received three bids, with ACE of-
fering$20per share incash. Bid-
der B offered a cash bid of
$18.50-$19 per share, subject to
further reviewof PennMillers re-
cords, and Bidder C offered
$20.75 per share, subject to a 30-
day due diligence period.
Despite not being the highest
bid, the committee believed ACE
was the best partner because of
its ability to fund the acquisition
fromoperating funds rather than
by borrowing. Swiss-based ACE
is one of the largest insurance
companies in the world and has
its main U.S. operations in Phila-
delphia.
Now facing more losses in the
aftermath of Hurricane Irene,
Penn Millers management and
board decided to pursue a deal
with ACE, which seemed far bet-
ter prepared to consummate a
merger andhadgivenassurances
it would maintain the companys
Wilkes-Barre location, where
about 100 people worked.
ACE asked for a four-week ex-
clusive negotiating period; Willis
suggested cutting that to a week.
ACE agreed and raised its bid to
$21per share, which was later re-
duced to $20.45 in light of claims
caused by the storms and other
expenses.
Penn Millers countered with
an agreement at $20.75 per
share, but on Sept. 7 ACE pre-
sented a final bid of $20.50. See-
ing no better alternative, the
board accepted the offer and an-
nounced the agreement with
ACE on Sept. 8.
The next day, A.M. Best an-
nounced it was reviewing Penn
Millers rating with positive im-
plications.
Ironically, in their remarks
about the takeover, ACE officials
said on Sept. 30 that the pricing
climate had strengthened in the
June-September quarter, and the
company had been able to im-
poserateincreases of about 3per-
cent in many of its lines. On Oct.
26, the company raisedits annual
profit estimate by 9 percent.
Completion of the transaction
is expected in the first quarter of
2012. At the bid price sharehol-
ders will have doubled their in-
vestment inalittlemorethantwo
years.
Key officers will make out even
better. In addition to the share
priceappreciationGaudet, Banks
and six other officers will share
$8.1 million in golden para-
chute payments triggered by a
change in control of the compa-
ny.
Banks declined to comment
for thisarticleandGaudet didnot
respond to an interview request.

Tesslers temper sizzled just as
much as his chicken wings as he
stood over his deep fryers and
thought about the money that re-
cently greased the pockets of
thieves instead of his own.
Sinceheopenedhis business St.
Louis Wing Co. in April, thieves
have siphoned hundreds of
pounds of grease froma container
behindhisbusiness, deprivinghim
of about $2,000 that a grease ren-
dering company would have paid
him.
Itsabigdeal. Theresahugeun-
dergroundout there for this stuff,
he said.
Grease thefts have been on the
rise since the introduction of bio-
fuels to the market once dominat-
ed by animal feed and soap indus-
tries. Combating the thefts is diffi-
cultbecausethepenaltiesaremini-
mal despite environmental and
financial concerns, said Tom
Cook, president of the National
Renderers Association.
Othershavesaidthat thisislike
the new copper, Cook said.
These thieves are getting more
sophisticated. Its a multimillion-
dollar business for them.
Tessler knew something was
amiss after he calledhis rendering
company to ask why he had not
beenpaidfor thegreasehehadput
in their container during the first
six months he was open.
Theytoldusour container nev-
er had anything in it, he said.
He called police, who then spot-
ted three teenagers removing
grease from Tesslers restaurant
and other restaurants in the early
hours of Sept. 26. Its a crime that
nobody really cares about, said
John Kostelac, who co-owns Kos-
telacGreaseServicewithhisbroth-
er, Jim Kostelac. When copper
thieves get caught they are sent to
prison, but when somebody gets
caught stealing grease, they get a
slap on the hand and are turned
loose and are out stealing again.
Kostelac saidhis drivers cantell
when a business has been hit be-
cause the thieves often leave a
greasy mess behind. They usually
have 1,000-gallon tanks on trucks
anddo not carry cleaning supplies
withthemincaseof aspill, hesaid.
Its also hardto estimate the val-
ue of the stolen grease. It is a com-
modity; the purer the product, the
more it is worth, Kostelac said.
Most people think, Oh, that
stuff isnt important because no-
body gets hurt, so they dont wor-
ryaboutit,Kostelacsaid. Butitis
a big concern when theyre steal-
ing your material. We employ 20
people, and its hurting their job,
and its lost revenue for the restau-
rant.
Tessler said the company that
buys his grease pays him$1.15 per
gallon. He estimates that he uses
about 60to70gallonsof greaseper
week.
Nationally, Cook said grease is
selling for about 40 to43 cents per
pound, or roughly $3 per gallon.
Whenit usedtobe15 cents per
pound, they werent stealing it,
Cook said.
Slick thieves steal grease from restaurants

Bobby Tessler, owner of St. Louis Wing Co. restaurant in Rock Hill,
Mo., fries chicken wings. Tessler, who uses around 70 gallons of
cooking oil per week, estimates he has lost around $2,000 in
income from spent grease that was stolen from the container
behind his restaurant.
When copper thieves get caught they are sent to
prison, but when somebody gets caught stealing
grease, they get a slap on the hand and are turned
loose and are out stealing again.

cutting and sewing the fabric in-
to dresses for the past year.
At first I didnot believe that it
was made from milk, but when
you work with it, you notice that
it feels different fromnormal fab-
rics, said Berthold. She cast Do-
maske a sly sideways glance,
then confessed to have privately
made a pair of pajamas from a
scrap she had been given.
When you look it, you cant
see such a big difference, but
when you wear it, you feel the
difference, Berthold said.
The quest for a natural, non-ir-
ritating fabric began after watch-
ing her stepfather suffer through
terrible skin irritations while be-
ingtreatedfor cancer. There are
so many people who really suffer
just by wearing normal clothing.
I wanted to find a way to help
them.
She focused her research on
milk protein, or casein. Al-
though textiles made with milk
fibers have been around since
the 1930s, she said most of them
relied heavily on acrylics.
I thought it must be possible
tomake a fabric that is complete-
ly organic, said Domaske.
After two years of trial and er-
ror, working with a research lab,
Domaske and her team of six fi-
nally landed on a process of re-
ducing milk to a protein powder
that is then boiled and pressed
into strands that can be woven
into a fabric.
The strands, she says, can be
spun rougher for a heavier tex-
ture, or shiny smooth, to create a
soft jersey that drapes and feels
like silk.
She uses only organic milk
that cannot be consumed be-
cause it has failed Germanys
strict quality standards.
Domaskeconcedes that at (eu-
ro) 20 ($28) per kilogram (2.2
pounds), her fabric costs moreto
produce than even organic cot-
ton, which goes for about 40 per-
cent less. But she hopes local
productionwill keepdowntrans-
port costs and reduce the overall
price.
She also notes that only a half
gallon of water is needed to pro-
duce 1 kilogram of fabric,
enoughtomakeseveral standard
dresses. By comparison, the
same amount of cotton requires
more than 10,000 liters of water.
Lynda Grose, a consultant and
associate professor at the Cali-
fornia College of the Arts in Oak-
land, California, who specializes
in ecologically responsible de-
sign, notes that the fashion in-
dustry is dependent on the idea
of disposal, of people always
wanting new designs.
There is a tremendous
amount of waste in the fashion
world, Grosesaidina telephone
interview. She noted that by
rethinking how such waste can
be used will help make the fash-
ion and textile industry more ec-
ologically friendly.

BOSTONBaby boomers ful-
ly embraced the stock market by
riding its ups and downs through-
out their peak income years.
But now that the oldest boom-
ers are turning 65, their focus has
turned toward ensuring a steady
income from their investments.
And theyre likely to find the an-
swer is to put money in bonds
rather than stocks, as recent mar-
ket volatility shows.
Consider that bonds have made
stock returns look puny in recent
years. Broadly diversified bond
mutual fundshaveprovidedinves-
tors an average annualized return
of nearly 5.6 percent over the past
five years. Thats better than all of
the domestic stock fund catego-
ries that Morningstar tracks.
Withretirement just aroundthe
corner for such a sizeable popula-
tion, its understandable that in-
vestors have deposited a net $670
billion into bond mutual funds
since January 2009, while consis-
tently pulling their money out of
stock funds. Fidelity Investments
says its clients alone have added
$100 billion in new cash to bond
investments over the past three
years.
But dothestock-savvyboomers
and others who have flocked to
fixed-income investments really
understand bond investing, and
the potential risks and rewards?
Many fund companies believe
theres a pressing need for inves-
tors to bone up on their bond ba-
sics, so the companies are putting
more resources into the invest-
ment products that have been
drawingthe most newcash. Fidel-
ity upgraded its online resources
for bond investors in September,
and Nuveen Investments made a
similar move this month.
Its a recognition that bonds are
more complex than stocks, with
more moving parts that influence
investment returns yield,
price, and interest rates, for start-
ers.
Interest rates are perhaps the
most critical risk for bond inves-
tors now. Short-term rates are
near zero, andhave nowhere togo
but up. Whentheyeventuallyrise,
if the economic recovery really
gets going, expect to see lower
bond returns and possibly losses.
The economy is growing so
slowly that interest rates arent
likely to spike in the short run.
Any increase would be unwel-
come for investors.
Its a phenomenon that bond
fund investors havent faced in a
very long time, says analyst Lo-
ren Fox of the fund industry con-
sultancy Strategic Insight. Some
will be surprised and disappoint-
ed when it happens. Indeed, in-
vestors have become accustomed
to declining rates for the better
part of 30 years.
Boomers flock to bonds,
but do they know basics?

75 William Street., Pittston
Professional Hearing Aid 45th Year
655-3078
Q: I seem to be at a crossroads
in my career. My boss recently
told me that I am on track to be-
come a partner in our firmin two
to three years. However, my hus-
bandandI arealsoreadytostart a
family. If I have a baby, Im not
sure how I will feel about contin-
uing to work full-time.
Although cutting back to 20 or
30 hours a week would not be a
problem financially, Im afraid it
might endanger my ability to
make partner. All of our partners
are men who work very long
hours and may not understand
my need for a reduced schedule.
Ideally, I would like to have
both a successful career and time
with my family. Does that seem
possible or will I have to give
something up?
A: I wish I could say that, pre-
sented with the proper persua-
sive arguments, your industrious
male colleagues will warmly em-
brace the idea of keeping you on
the partner track with fewer
hours. However, that wouldprob-
ably be a trip to Fantasyland.
In the type of firm you de-
scribe, senior partners typically
expect younger associates to
earn their stripes by racking up
lots of billable time. Unless your
skills are irreplaceable, simply
raising the issue of a lighter
schedule could dampen your ca-
reer prospects. That may not be
fair, but its often true.
For better work-life balance,
consider finding a firmwitha his-
tory of promoting women who
have children. When you are jug-
gling the demands of work and
motherhood, a more family-
friendly environment will be
much less stressful.
Q: After a recent meeting, my
boss called me into his office and
slammedthedoor. Hegot right in
my face, backed me against the
wall, and said, Dont ever make
another comment like the one
you just made in that meeting.
When I stated that I was only
expressing my personal opinion
on a business issue, he shook his
finger at me and repeated, Dont
ever, ever do that again. His an-
ger scared me, so I left quickly.
In the three years that we have
worked together, nothing like
this has ever happened before.
DoyouthinkI shoulddiscuss this
withmyboss or just report himto
human resources?
A: Regardless of what you said,
your managers aggressive reac-
tion was completely inexcusable.
But since this is one isolated in-
cident in a three-year relation-
ship, you should probably give
him a chance to explain.
For example: Bob, weve
worked together for a long time,
so I was really taken aback when
you got so angry with me the oth-
er day. To be perfectly honest, I
was rather frightened. Can you
help me understand what was so
upsetting?
No matter what he says, listen
calmly without arguing or debat-
ing. An apology would be nice,
but that may not happen. Hope-
fully, this unexpected outburst
will be a one-time occurrence,
but if your boss ever threatens
you again, you should definitely
inform human resources.

They are putting it under the
mattress, or even inside empty
wine jugs in the cellars. We are a
country of farmers, said Elio
Lannutti, president of consumer
protection group Adusbef.
An American service organiza-
tion in Rome asked its members
to spend their Thanksgiving ho-
liday next week making food
packages for the poor. Zuccari
said demand for food parcels had
risen 20 percent in the last few
years, with well-dressed Italians
now joining immigrants in line.
Caritas, the Roman Catholic
churchs charity arm, says grow-
ing numbers of families cant
meet a surprise expense of euro
700 ($947) without turning to
borrowing.
What is really dramatic is the
geographic division, said Cari-
tas Walter Nanni, pointing to
figures that Italys south remains
severely impoverished.
While only 18 percent of fam-
ilies in the Alpine province of
Trento could not meet such an
unexpected payment for medi-
cal expenses or car repairs, the
figure rises to 48 percent in Sici-
ly.
A gerontocracy dominates Ita-
lys key professional posts, mak-
ing workers even well into their
40s still considered up-and-com-
ing. In the highest political cir-
cles, Monti is 68, Berlusconi is
75 and the president of Italy,
Giorgio Napolitano, is 86.
Many younger Italians in
fields like medicine, science and
technology leave for countries
that have more professional op-
portunities and mobility.
And the prospects for those
who have not left are eroding
fast. The Bank of Italy this
month reported that nearly one
in four Italians under 30 a to-
tal of 2.2 million people nei-
ther study nor work.
The great majority of the Ital-
ian NEETs short for Not in
Education, Employment or
Training live at home with at
least one parent, and a full 25
percent are living in a family
where no one is working, the
bank said.
A university degree does little
to alleviate their plight: A full 20
percent of college graduates are
without a job.
At least with Monti there is
some hope since he is not a poli-
tician subject to pressure from
the lobbies, said Francesco Bu-
reca, who graduated from an
elite school but cant land a job.
But hardline leftists expect no
improvement for Italys poor,
even from the new government.
The Monti government is
born from a mandate of Confin-
dustria (a powerful business lob-
by) and the banks, said Marco
Ferrando, leader of the tiny
Communist Workers Party.
He called for newprotests. Ita-
lys last major economic protest
this fall ended in a bloody riot on
the streets of Rome.
POOR
There is another city
out there where people
cant get to the end of
the month.

FEARING FOR FRANCE
Until now, jittery investors have focused on
the debt crisis affecting Greece, Spain and It-
aly. Harris Bank Chief Investment Officer
Jack Ablin says they should worry about
France, too. The widening difference be-
tween the yield on high-quality French bonds
and German bonds is cause for concern,
says Ablin. France is thought of as one of the
large European economies thats in a posi-
tion to help its teetering neighbors. But some
doubt the countrys own debt quality. Stan-
dard & Poors issued a downgrade to France
on Nov. 10, but then said that it had done so
by mistake. S&P maintained the countrys
Triple-A debt rating. Ablin said the clerical er-
ror reveals that S&P is preparing to take
some type of action on France. If Frances
debt lost its Triple-A rating, the bailout fund
would be dealt a severe blow.
SOMETHINGS FISHY IN
UTAH
Utahs next big industry: Gold-
fish crackers. Demand for the
cheddar-flavored snack has
been rising says Pepperidge
Farm, the division of Campbell
Soup Co. that produces the
crackers. The company is
beefing up its Goldfish pres-
ence in Utah. Pepperidge
Farm will create 54 new jobs at
its cracker factory in rural Rich-
mond. Some other states
might also benefit from future
Goldfish growth: Pepperidge
Farm has Goldfish-producing
facilities in Pennsylvania, Flori-
da and Ohio that its consider-
ing expanding as well.
JEANS BLUES
The incoming CEO of teen retailer
American Eagle Outfitters knows jeans,
but can he turn around a stock on pace
to fall for the fourth time in five years?
American Eagle last week said Robert
Hanson would be its new boss, effective
Jan. 30. As global president of the
Levis brand, he has experience selling
clothes. But he wasnt running a big re-
tailer, Nomura analyst Paul Lejuez
wrote in a report. Levis has only about
500 company-owned retail stores;
American Eagle has more than double
that in North America alone. Hanson al-
so didnt have to deal with the challeng-
es of running a publicly traded compa-
ny: Levis is privately held. Lejuez says
Hansons background is solid, but the
transition could be bumpy.

Rich Howard is more interested in
a stock when its beaten down than
when its soaring. Thats one rea-
son why he likes gold miners, even
though many are down this year
when golds price is up 20 percent.
The strategy has helped his Pros-
pector Capital Appreciation
(PCAFX) fund return 18 percent
annually over the last three years.
Is owning
miners a
way to in-
vest in gold
without
having to
pay the
high price
for the met-
al itself?
Gold was
close to
$600 when
we started
the fund (in 2007 and is now about
$1,700 per ounce). Gold mining
stocks, we havent had much profit
from them. I think gold miners
have a couple things going for
them: They could do well just be-
cause they catch up with gold pric-
es. They could do well because
credit problems come up (which
would drive up gold prices further),
and they could do well if the dollar
continues to debase (which leads
to higher gold prices), and I think
all those things are possible.
I also see that payroll company
Automatic Data Processing is one
of your top holdings. There are
many reasons to dislike it, start-
ing with the weak job market.
That stock had done nothing for
close to 10 years. You dont have
employment growth, and that hurts
you. And you dont have high inter-
est rates, and that hurts you a lot,
because they have a three to sev-
en day float where companies pay
into them before they pay it out to
employees. (ADP can take advan-
tage by investing that cash for
those three to seven days.) So by
having short-term interest rates
collapse the way they have, its re-
ally hurt their growth.
But they still do gradually add
customers. And its real growth: Its
mostly internal growth. I much pre-
fer internal growth to acquisitions.
Because acquisitions are
expensive?
Because acquisition growth tends
to bring with it cultural problems
and accounting gimmickry and
things like that that end up biting
you as a shareholder. For every
FirstEnergy, which is the only com-
pany I can think of that has done
well growing through acquisitions,
theres five Enrons.
Why do you own so few banks?
I hate banks. You just have no idea
whats going on in a bank. There
are plenty of people who say they
know whats going on in banks, but
they are just way too dangerous.
Does that philosophy stretch
back to 2008, when banks blew
up, or further?
It stretches back to 1971 when I
got my first job. Banks have been
good dividend payers, and people
have made money on them, but I
want no part of them.
DuPont is one of your top hold-
ings, but wont demand for its
chemicals be hurt by the weak
economy?
DuPont is one company, but there
are two big drivers. Theres the ag-
ricultural driver and the specialty
chemicals. I think the agriculture
economy is going to be so power-
ful for such a long period of time
that its worth owning DuPont. And
this is another stock thats done
nothing for years.
Every year, they become more
powerful in ag (through their seed
production). If you think about how
the world has changed over the
last 10 years, with the tremendous
increase in the standard of living of
China, Brazil, India, people want
decent food. And theres no more
land, so you gradually have to im-
prove your farming.

InsiderQ&A
Howard
Stan Choe Kristen Girard AP
Wild swings in stock prices have many profes-
sional and individual investors sitting out the market.
That has sent daily trading volume sharply lower.
Volume on the New York Stock Exchange has
fallen since mid-October, when Europes debt crisis
worsened. Volume is down 15 percent from the 4.9
billion shares it has averaged since the bull market
began March 10, 2009. On Monday, it was down by a
third at 3.2 billion shares.
Its not just a U.S. phenomenon: Monthly trading
volume of large companies on the Tokyo Stock
Exchange fell last month to 36.1 billion shares, the
lowest level since September 2007. Average daily
trading volume sank to 1.8 billion shares, its lowest
level since August 2010.
Theres just so much uncertainty that people are
just in a look-and-see mode, says Jerry Zhang, senior
portfolio manager with Wells Capital Management.
Investors are waiting to see how Europe will
resolve its debt problems. And they want to see if the
U.S. congressional committee named to cut the
budget deficit succeeds by next Wednesdays
deadline.
The takeaway for investors: Expect light trading to
lead to more volatility. When fewer shares are being
traded, prices can have sharper swings. But keep in
mind that a big drop means you may be able to pick
up the stocks you want more cheaply.
Those can be opportunities, when people are
frozen, when people are paralyzed, when people are
not trading, says Richard Ross, global technical
strategist for Auerbach Grayson.

Last Wednesday, the price of oil hit $100 a
barrel for the first time since July. Crude is up 12
percent since the beginning of the year. The S&P
500 is down nearly 4 percent.
Most of oils rally has happened in the last six
weeks. Oil is up 24 percent since Oct. 6, when
traders regained confidence in
the U.S. economy and stopped
predicting a financial meltdown in
Europe. Without a global slowdown or a second
recession for the U.S., demand for oil is expected
to keep growing.
Energy stocks in the S&P 500 are up 4 percent
in the last month. This screen shows the oil and
gas stocks in the index that have gone up the
most this year. The top stock, Cabot Oil & Gas,
more than doubled. Analysts say Cabots produc-
tion could grow more than 55 percent next year
as the company drills in the Marcellus shale de-
posit under Pennsylvania, New York, West Virgin-
ia and Ohio. Analysts polled by FactSet think
Cabot will reach $94.68 in the next two years, a
14.5 percent gain.

Yields rise but mortgage rates fall
Uncertainty over the stability of Greek talks to re-
place its prime minister eased, sending Treasury
prices lower. The yield on the 10-year Treasury,
which rises when its price falls, rose. Bond trad-
ing was closed on Friday for the Veterans Day
holiday. The average rate on the 30-year fixed
mortgage fell to 3.99 percent from 4 percent the
previous week.

DAVID BRODER,
veteran reporter, co-
lumnist, author and
lecturer, won the Pu-
litzer Prize for Com-
mentary in1973. He
appeared on NBCs
Meet the Press 401
times, more than any other individual,
save four of the long-running programs
11 moderators. You often saw him on
the PBS news show, Washington
Week, and his political columns were
syndicated to more than 300 newspa-
pers nationwide.
Often referred to as the dean of the
Washington, D.C., press corps, the
81-year-old Broder died earlier this year.
For almost half a century Broder was
one of the most respected commenta-
tors on the national scene. President
Barack Obama called him the most
respected and incisive political com-
mentator of his generation.
Broder once noted, The old maxim
that good government is the best poli-
tics has special force and relevance at
the start of a new administration, espe-
cially one, like that now beginning,
which brings a new party to power.
In Luzerne County it is far more than
a new administration taking over; it is a
new framework of government, and it
will grab the reins of power on Jan. 2.
Thats when the 11 men and women you
elected will assume their seats on coun-
cil, signaling a new beginning for Lu-
zerne County.
The voters are to be congratulated.
Considering the 55 candidates who
eventually ran for county council, 49
original candidates plus six third-party
entrants, the voters performed extraor-
dinarily well. In sifting through all the
noise, they cobbled together a council
consisting of many highly educated,
talented and accomplished men and
women.
The makeup of county council can
accurately be conveyed in a variety of
ways. The panel consists of nine men
and two women. Ten of the 11 are col-
lege graduates. Seven are older than 50.
Five live in the Kingston area, two live
near Hazleton and only three are from
Wilkes-Barre. There are four sexagenar-
ians, five educators and six have never
held elective public office. There is also
one resident of Dallas, one lawyer, one
architect and one septuagenarian.
Describe them as you will. There are
any number of combinations. Just dont
label them Democrats (six), Repub-
licans (four) or registered Independent
(one).
If this council is to build upon the
natural goodwill that extends to every
candidate-elect and earn the continuing
trust of a deserving people, the mem-
bers need to avoid the traps of partisan-
ship, grandstanding, destructive coali-
tions and heels-dug-in, too deep, too
quickly and too often.
Such was the dismal performance of
the previous government that voters
abolished.
Those on council need to remember
not every issue is tantamount to Arma-
geddon, believe it or not. Measure your
words. The people of Luzerne County
already have begun measuring you.
They are on the lookout for workhorses,
show horses, fissures and serious indi-
viduals.
Spout your most poetic lines at the
procedural minutia surging in your
direction and what will you have at the
ready when an issue equal in weight to
the refurbished dome rests on your
collective shoulders as the clerk calls for
the inexorable yeas and nays? Who
heeds a clanging symbol?
Good government is the best poli-
tics. That enduring tenet has special
force and relevance at the start of a new
administration. David Broder penned
those words on Jan. 20, 1969, following
the inauguration of President Richard
Nixon. More officers in the new admin-
istration should have read and paid
close attention to Broders words.
Four years later, Broder was awarded
the Pulitzer Prize for his clear and
compelling commentary on an emerg-
ing topic called Watergate.
Honorable members of council, good
government is the best politics.

DES MOINES, Iowa For
weeks, it was the other Texan who
was shaking things up as a front-
runner in the Republican presiden-
tial race.
Now, while Gov. Rick Perry
struggles to reverse his plunge in
the polls, Rep. Ron Paul is the Tex-
an on the march after pushing his
way into the top tier of candidates
for the Jan. 3 Iowa caucuses.
A Bloomberg News poll this
week showed Paul, Herman Cain,
Mitt Romney and Newt Gingrich
are about even as the top choices of
likely Iowa Republican caucus par-
ticipants. Perry, Texas longest
serving governor, was in fifth place,
with 7 percent support.
For true believers like Ani De-
Groot, Pauls surge was no surprise.
In 2007, someone had scrawled
Google Ron Paul on the chalk-
board of her astrophysics class at
the University of Iowa. She accept-
ed the challenge and soon became
an enthusiastic volunteer in Pauls
2008 presidential race.
With her candidate waging his
third bid for the White House, De-
Groot, now23, has put her universi-
ty studies on hold to be Midwest re-
gional director of Youth for Ron
Paul. Shes based in the campaigns
state headquarters, a tiny suburban
strip-mall office where a handwrit-
ten sign proclaims, Ron Paul
Rocks.
The Bloomberg poll showed
Cain, an Atlanta businessman who
has been dogged by sexual harass-
ment allegations, at the top of the
field with 20 percent. Paul was in
second place with19 percent. Rom-
ney, a former Massachusetts gover-
nor who is widely portrayed as the
man to beat in the Republican race,
had 18 percent. And Gingrich, the
former House speaker whose candi-
dacy has surged in recent weeks,
had 17 percent.
But it is Paul who seems to have
the most dependable base of core
supporters. Nearly 70 percent of
those who supported him in the
2008 caucuses are standing behind
him in the 2012 race, according to
the poll. Among caucus-goers who
say theyve firmly decided on a can-
didate, Paul leads with 32 percent.
Pauls electoral appeal some-
times mystifies establishment poli-
ticians. Unlike Perry, whose rugged
good looks often drawcomparisons
to the Marlboro Man, Paul is the ol-
dest candidate in the race and is far
from being the flashiest.
But the candidates libertarian
message, which includes opposi-
tion to the wars in Iraq and Afghan-
istan and a sharp retrenchment in
federal spending, attracts followers
from a diverse socioeconomic
range.
His message just keeps catching
on and its growing steady, steady,
steady, said Drew Ivers, who was
Pauls Iowa campaign chairman in
2008 and has resumed that role in
the 2012 campaign.
Arthur Sanders, a political sci-
ence professor at Drake University
in Des Moines, said Paul has re-
tained the nucleus of ardent liber-
tarians who have always embraced
his past campaigns, while picking
up support from more traditional
Republicans.
Hes been saying the same thing
on the issues for a long time, and to
many of his supporters, that initself
is a refreshing change to a majority
of these candidates, who seem to
change their minds often about
where they stand, Sanders said.
At the same time, Sanders and
other analysts say Pauls chances of
becoming the nominee are a long
shot at best.

HICAGO Victims of sexual ha-
rassment often remain in the shad-
ows for one simple reason: fear.
Fearof accusationsbecomingpublic,
of having their entire lives scrutinized. Fear they
may be judged uncharitably by people who dont
knowthem. Examplesof thosefearsweremade
real as the political scandal engulfing Republican
presidential candidate Herman Cain swirled
through the media in recent weeks, reminding
peoplewhohaveexperiencedsexual harassment,
along with their attorneys and advocates, how
emotionally devastatingit canbe tostepforward.
Its horrible, said Laura Beth Nielsen, a researcher
at the American Bar Foundation and an associate pro-
fessor of sociology and law at Northwestern Universi-
ty. I cant tell you how many (accusers) have gone
bankrupt, gottendivorcedor start (having)drinkingor
drug-use problems. ... Most people are unprepared for
how long its going to take and the emotional toll its
going to have.
Sexual harassment complaints often take years to
end, result in small compensation payments and leave
the reputations of the accuser andthe accusedscarred.
Attorneys say many cases are settled early in the proc-
ess for a few thousand dollars, and a 2004 bar founda-
tionstudyfoundthat onceemployment discrimination
cases get to court, they were settled for an average of
$30,000.
Evenif theywin, theyfeel like theyve lost, Nielsen
said. Some say, Im glad I made the point that they
couldnt do that. But by and large, they feel pretty
chewed up and spit out by the justice system.
Twenty years after Anita Hills sexual harassment
claim against Supreme Court nominee Clarence Tho-
mas brought the issue out in the open, multiple allega-
tionsof inappropriateworkplacebehavior byCainhave
reignited a national discussion of the problem.
Cain has denied sexually harassing anyone. But
since news broke that two sexual harassment claims
against Cainwere settledwhile he was president of the
National Restaurant Association, at least two other
women have come forward with similar allegations.

Editorial
If that building collapses, then
everybody will be here
complaining that the
commissioners didnt do
anything.
Walter Griffith
The Luzerne County controller still questions the handling of the failed
Hotel Sterling restoration project but defended county commissioners
Thursday before they approved a $1 million allocation to demolish the
landmark structure.
NOVEMBER is the peak
month for collisions be-
tween cars and deer, ac-
cording to the Insurance
Institute for Highway Safe-
ty.
Insurance groups esti-
mate that about one in every 100 drivers
will be involved in a deer-vehicle collision at
some point in his or her life. A fatal crash
late last month in Indiana illustrates how
heartbreaking such encounters can be.
Seven people including four children
were killed after their minivan hit a deer
and was subsequently struck by a semi-
trailer.
While hunters invariably point to such
tragedies as justification for killing even
more deer, the blame for deer-vehicle colli-
sions falls at least partly on their shoulders.
Pennsylvania-based Erie Insurance, which
has analyzed deer-vehicle collision data in
the state for more than a decade, found that
the opening day and opening Saturday of
deer hunting season are (t)wo of the most
dangerous days to drive. According to the
Missouri Insurance Information Service,
increased deer activity associated with
hunting is a major factor in the rise in
deer-vehicle collisions in the last three
months of the year. With more people (hun-
ters) in the woods, deer are spooked out of
wooded areas often out onto the road.
Hunting also increases deer populations
which increases the likelihood that deer-
car collisions will occur. While several stud-
ies have suggested that sterilization pro-
grams might provide an effective, long-term
solution to controlling deer populations,
hunting only makes the problem worse. Its
been shown, for example, that in hunted
populations, does are more likely to have
twins rather than single fawns and are more
likely to reproduce at a younger age. Imme-
diately following a hunt, theres less compe-
tition for food. The surviving deer are bet-
ter nourished, which can lead to a higher
reproductive rate and lower neonatal mor-
tality.
The state agencies responsible for wild-
life management know this, of course, but
theyre primarily run by hunters, who hard-
ly have the animals best interests in mind.
So, instead of setting up sterilization pro-
grams, they destroy the deers homes by
clear-cutting to increase the amount of
vegetation for the deer to eat further
increasing their population. Such programs
help to ensure that there are plenty of ani-
mals for hunters to kill (not to mention
plenty of revenue from the sale of hunting
licenses).
Simple, nonlethal methods can reduce
the risk of deer-vehicle collisions. A team of
scientists from the University of Alberta
found that simply placing warning signs in
hotspots where deer are known to cross
roads can reduce collisions by 34 percent.
Other communities are experimenting with
roadside sensors that trigger lights and
whistles as cars approach to scare deer
away and with laser beams that sound
alarms to alert motorists to the presence of
deer.
Drivers also should slow down and watch
the road carefully especially during hunt-
ing season. Scan the side of the road for
wildlife and use high-beam headlights at
night when there is no oncoming traffic.
Also be aware that deer tend to travel in
groups, so if you see one deer, slow down
and watch for more. In many deer-vehicle
accidents, the driver slowed down for one
deer, then sped up and hit another one.
Hunters like to say that killing deer is the
only way to prevent traffic collisions with
them, but its not. When hunting season
turns deer territories into a war zone, its no
wonder that the animals panic and run
often right out onto our roadways.

COMMENTARY
P A U L A M O O R E
Simple, nonlethal methods can reduce the
risk of deer-vehicle collisions.
I HATE to break this to my
fellow progressive-conserva-
tives, but those of us who
believe in progressive social
values and conservative
economics wont have a
presidential candidate who
satisfies us next November.
Barack Obama made noise about going
this way in 2008. But the president has em-
braced the progressive part of the code more
than the conservative side. He even has gone
populist.
And Republicans, wow. Theyre bent on
electing a candidate wholl satisfy the conser-
vative economic part of the equation but
completely reject the progressive aspect. No
compassionate conservatism or McCain-like
independence this time around.
But those who want a humane immigra-
tion system, stronger public schools, a place
for gays in the military plus debt reduction,
entitlement reforms and private-sector-led
growth need not sit out this cycle. Progres-
sive-conservatives can start now to create an
agenda that would encourage fellow travelers
to compete in future elections. It also would
allow the numerous current officeholders
who are quiet about their center/right beliefs
to come out of the closet.
Here are a few suggestions:
Press for better public schools: Partner
with civil rights groups and business leaders
who, like us, believe Washington should hold
local schools accountable. The Obama ad-
ministration started strong in this direction
but has faded, and Republicans are distanc-
ing themselves from federal involvement
altogether.
By standing up for testing that shows
whether children are learning at grade level,
prog-cons will stand on the side of minority
students whose public schools have left them
behind. But accountability isnt enough. Also
delve into what makes schools work, starting
with how districts develop principals and
teachers as leaders and retain them.
Welcome immigrants: The top goal is
immigration laws that create more permits
for foreign workers to come here legally and
a process for illegal immigrants to become
citizens. But that priority has been hard to
achieve and will be until at least 2013.
So, start working with churches, schools
and other mediating institutions to integrate
the many immigrants from Latin America
into our culture. The school part especially
matters.
Let the private sector grow jobs: Obama
had to stimulate the economy, but he relied
too much on government to grow jobs. Bet-
ter to let the private sector lead. The place to
start is the energy industry. Numerous states
have natural gas reserves. Push for access to
them and press producers to invest in envi-
ronmental technologies.
Also, flatten the tax code. Create two
rates, scrap many exemptions and lower
firms cost of capital.
Go gonzo about the debt: Progressive-
conservatives should hope Congress super-
committee succeeds in reducing the debt by
$4 trillion. But even if the panel hits a homer,
entitlement programs such as Medicare and
Social Security need attention.
Former GOP Sen. Pete Domenici and
former Clinton adviser Alice Rivlin have the
best Medicare idea. Keep traditional Medi-
care for seniors who want it, but give others
a voucher they could use to buy private
insurance. The choice model could control
costs.
The 2012 race might be less than satisfying
for those of us who lean left on cultural is-
sues but right on economics. But this is the
time for the muscular middle to create its
future.
In hands of voters, todays candidates are like putty

HEN THE joint
Select Commit-
tee on Deficit Re-
duction was
formed in August, there were
high hopes that the super-
committee would mimic the
process in which politics was
largely brushed aside to close
excess military bases across
the nation.
Pennsylvanians will recall
how then-Gov. Ed Rendell
usedevery maneuver he could
think of, including a lawsuit,
to try to keep Willow Grove
Naval Air Station open. But in
the end, the decision of the
Base Realignment and Clo-
sure Commission prevailed.
The BRAC process, which
began around 1990 and con-
cluded in 2005, was strength-
ened by a mandate that Con-
gress must agree to imple-
ment all of that special com-
mittees recommendations or
none of them. There was little
wiggle room for politics.
Unfortunately, theres a lot
of wiggling going on with the
deficit supercommittee. So
muchso, it looks doubtful that
what it produces by Thurs-
days deadline will provide a
meaningful cut to the spend-
ing that seems to have the
country on course to a fiscal
tsunami.
It was hoped that a higher-
minded supercommittee,
with an equal number of Re-
publicans and Democrats,
would reject the partisanship
that has thwarted agreement
on a deficit-reduction plan. In-
stead, the panel has been em-
broiled in the same tax hikes-
vs.-spending cuts argument.
The supercommittee will
likely come up with some-
thing to avoid blowing its
deadline. But unless some-
thing changes drastically in
less than a week, Americans
shouldnt expect much. Each
day closer to the 2012 elec-
tions seems to further erode
any zeal to make budget deci-
sions that might inflame a fac-
tion of voters.
What a sad commentary
that is, that the panelists
would rather do nothing than
risk an election loss.

F O R U M
IN 2008, the
slogan was
Yes We Can.
For 2011-12,
its We Cant
Wait. What
happened in
between?
Candidate Obama, the vessel
into which myriad dreams
were poured, met the reality of
governance.
His near-$1 trillion stimulus
begat a stagnant economy with
9 percent unemployment. His
attempt at Wall Street reform
left in place a still too-big-to-
fail financial system as vul-
nerable today as when he came
into office. His green energy
fantasies yielded Solyndra
cronyism and a cap-and-trade
regime not even a Democratic
Congress would pass.
And now his signature
achievement, Obamacare, is
headed to the Supreme Court,
where it could very well be
struck down, just a week after
its central element was over-
whelmingly repudiated (2-1)
by the good burghers of Ohio.
So what do you do when you
say you can, but, it turns out,
you cant? Blame the other
guy. Charge the Republicans
with making governing impos-
sible. Never mind that you had
control of the Congress for
two-thirds of your current
tenure. Its all the fault of Re-
publican rejectionism.
Hence: We Cant Wait. We
cant wait while they obstruct.
We cant wait while they dither
with my jobs bill. Write Con-
gress today! Vote Democratic
tomorrow!
We cant wait. Except for
certain exceptions, such as the
1,700-mile trans-USA Keystone
XL pipeline, carrying Alberta
oil to Texas refineries, that
would have created thousands
of American jobs and increased
our energy independence.
For that, we can wait, it
seems. President Obama de-
creed that any decision must
wait 12 to 18 months post-
poned, by amazing coinci-
dence, until after next years
election.
Why? Because the pipeline
angered Obamas environ-
mental constituency. But their
complaints are risible. Global
warming from the extraction of
the Alberta tar sands? Canada
will extract the oil anyway. If it
doesnt go to us, it will go to
China. Net effect on the cli-
mate if we dont take that oil?
Zero.
Danger to a major aquifer,
which the pipeline traverses? It
is already crisscrossed by
25,000 miles of pipeline,
enough to circle the Earth.
Moreover, the State Depart-
ment had subjected Keystone
to three years of review the
most exhaustive study of any
oil pipeline in U.S. history
and twice concluded in volumi-
nous studies that there would
be no significant environmen-
tal harm.
So what happened? The
administration, reported The
New York Times, had in re-
cent days been exploring ways
to put off the decision until
after the presidential election.
Exploring ways to improve the
project? Hardly. Exploring
ways to get past the election.
Obamas decision was meant
to appease his environmental-
ists. Its already working. The
president of the National Wild-
life Federation told The Wash-
ington Post (online edition,
Nov. 10) that thousands of
environmentalists who were
galvanized to protest the pipe-
line would now support Oba-
ma in 2012.
Its hard to think of a more
clear-cut case of putting poli-
tics over nation. This from a
president whose central cam-
paign theme is that Repub-
licans put party over nation,
sacrificing country to crass
political ends.
Nor is this the first time
Obamas election calendar
trumped the national interest:
Obamas decision to wind
down the Afghan surge in
September 2012 is militarily
inexplicable. It comes during
the fighting season. It was
recommended by none of his
military commanders. It is
explicable only as a talking
point for the final days of his
re-election campaign.
At the height of the debt-
ceiling debate last July, Obama
pledged to veto any agreement
that was not long term. Defini-
tion of long term? By another
amazing coincidence, any deal
large enough to get him past
Election Day (and thus avoid
another such crisis next year).
Tuesday it was revealed
that last year the adminis-
tration pressured Solyndra, as
it was failing, to delay its
planned Oct. 28 announce-
ment of layoffs until Nov. 3
the day after the midterm
election.
A contemporaneous email
from a Solyndra investor
noted: Oddly they didnt give
a reason for that date. The
writer was clearly born yester-
day. The American voter was
not and (s)he soon gets to
decide who really puts party
over nation and re-election
above all.
We cant wait.
Country over politics:
We cant wait for that

IMAGINE YOU
were one of
them.
Imagine you
were 10 years
old. A coach
you trusted. A
man you liked.
A guy with white hair. An older
person.
Imagine he led you. Imagine
you listened. Imagine you didnt
want to. Imagine you did what
you were told.
Imagine the setting. A bath-
room. A shower. Imagine he said
it was OK. Imagine his tone.
Imagine his eyes.
Imagine the disbelief. The
horror. The pain. The tears.
Imagine the shame. The confu-
sion. The rage.
Imagine going home. Lying in
your bed. Eating dinner with
your family. Going to school
elementary school, fourth or fifth
grade.
Imagine years passing, seeing
the event, again and again, when-
ever you close your eyes. Imagine
the nightmares. Imagine the loss.
Now imagine keeping all this
to yourself.
Because most people do.
The damage done by former
Penn State defensive coordinator
Jerry Sandusky, if the charges
against him prove to be true, is
almost unimaginable except for
the roughly 14 percent of boys
and 33 percent of girls, according
to some estimates, who have
been molested before the age of
18.
Thats right.
A third of all girls. A seventh of
all boys.
And most abuse goes unreport-
ed.
This horror did not begin with
Penn State. It will not end with
Penn State. It is an ugly under-
belly of adult behavior that has
been around forever and is only
increasing with the Internet and
the spread of pornography.
Many were mistaken at Penn
State.
But one man was responsible.
The damage done.
Did you watch the Nittany
Lions game against Nebraska
that Saturday? Was it not surreal?
Think about, in a matter of days,
the lives Sandusky knocked over
with his alleged behavior.
Here, for the first time in 62
seasons, was a Penn State team
without Joe Paterno, who was
watching, presumably, on a tele-
vision set somewhere. He was
weeks from a potentially glorious
retirement, a celebration of all he
had done and represented at his
school. Gone now. Vaporized by
the mere allegations against
Sandusky not a trial, not a
conviction, just the charges alone.
The mere idea that Paterno did
not take more serious action if
aware of Sanduskys behavior was
enough to ban him forever from a
sideline and to punt seven dec-
ades of football into a cesspool.
The damage done.
The school president, Graham
Spanier, one of the longest-serv-
ing university presidents, is gone,
ousted. Same for Tim Curley, the
athletic director, and another
high-ranking school official, both
of whom, in 2002, allegedly heard
from a graduate assistant about
Sandusky having relations with a
boy in the showers of the football
building.
That graduate assistant, now
an assistant coach, is on leave,
hiding somewhere, the object of
death threats.
All this from Sanduskys al-
leged lust.
The current players, who had
no part of any of this, are now
altered, their experience shad-
owed. The university and the
townspeople, once unified by
Blue and White, are split over
who to blame and who to pity.
So many affected. One mans
actions.
The damage done.
Imagine you are one of them.
Imagine these last few weeks.
Imagine being questioned by
authorities. Imagine having to
relive the nightmare. Imagine
anger. Imagine relief. Imagine
fury. Imagine surrender.
Imagine saying, Finally.
Imagine saying, What took so
long? Imagine seeing rallies in
support of those who knew or
might have known. Imagine
thinking you will be blamed and
hated for bringing down a pro-
gram.
Imagine wishing to have your
story told. Imagine wishing no
one would ask you anything.
Imagine pain and confusion, all
over again.
Imagine wondering, Why
me?
This is not a football story.
This is not a Joe Paterno story.
This is a daily story, an American
story, an international story, a
human tragedy. The shame, pain,
hurt and confusion are no differ-
ent for Sanduskys suspected
victims than they are for the
dozens of cases reported last
week, or the hundreds last
month, or the thousands last
year.
Fingers point. Blame is an
arrow. And the months to come
will unfold an already wincing
story. But you need only survey
the landscape to see what hap-
pens when an adult robs a child
of innocence.
One man. A million little piec-
es.
The damage done.
For victims, Penn State story is horror relived

Mayor Leighton
humbled, thankful
I
thank the people of Wilkes-
Barre for entrusting me
with their safety, security
and general welfare for anoth-
er four years. I am humbled to
have received such over-
whelming support from the
people during this last elec-
tion.
I did not seek a third-term
lightly and I will assume the
office of mayor in January
fully aware of its extraordinary
responsibility. I ran to contin-
ue to serve as your mayor
because I believe that this city
has made important invest-
ments in its future and that
there are many goals yet to be
accomplished. We have come
so far as a community, and I
firmly believe that the team I
have assembled at City Hall
will be able to deliver the
results that Wilkes-Barre resi-
dents demand and expect over
the next four years.
During the campaign, I
presented a bold, concrete
agenda that charted the future
progress of the city. I will not
wait until a new term to begin
implementing my agenda. The
issues that our community
faces are too great for us to
remain idle. I will work tire-
lessly to execute my agenda,
but we also will develop new
ideas and initiatives over the
next four years. My guiding
principle in the next term will
be only this: What will im-
prove the future for all Wilkes-
Barre residents? That is my
benchmark of success.
I also must thank my two
opponents in the campaign.
They both ran spirited cam-
paigns and, although we had
competing visions for Wilkes-
Barre, I think the residents of
this city benefited from hear-
ing a full exchange of ideas.
The future of Wilkes-Barre
is bright. It cannot be
achieved by any one mayor or
a single administration, but
only through the collective
dedication of the city govern-
ment and the people. Togeth-
er there is no project too dar-
ing, there is no idea too fool-
ish, there is no dream unob-
tainable.
I humbly ask for your sup-
port in the coming years. We
can make Wilkes-Barre a shin-
ing example of a proud city in
Pennsylvania.

Wilkes-Barre
On the mend and
grateful to many
I
thank the medical staff at
Geisinger Wyoming Valley
for the excellent care I re-
ceived while I was hospital-
ized for 12 days with double
pneumonia.
A grateful thanks to physi-
cian assistant Monica Lynn of
Intermountain Medical Group
for realizing how ill I was and
making sure I got to the hospi-
tal. Thanks to the two para-
medics from the Wilkes-Barre
Fire Department who trans-
ported me to the hospital.
A special thanks to the
Geisinger nurses who were
assigned to Room 300 and
Room 311B for the compas-
sion and care they showed me
during my stay. They truly are
a credit to the Geisinger
Health System.
Thanks also to the two
ladies who brought my meals
every day. Thanks, Katherine
and Jane.
May almighty God continue
to bless all of you for your
kindness.

so bad from my feet to half way up my calf. I had electric shocks, pulsating
throbbing pains through my toes and intense numbness. At the same time
my feet to touch felt like ice. I had the Neuropathy Centers treatment done
and now I can sleep at night. I would say I have at least 50% of my feeling

Talking turkey
on Thanksgiving
E
very year at Thanksgiving
in the United States, hun-
dreds of thousands of
turkeys are slaughtered to
celebrate the American Colo-
nists survival in their new
homeland. Most of these ani-
mals are raised under inten-
sive factory farm conditions.
In factory farm conditions,
turkeys undergo acute phys-
ical, social and psychological
stress and deprivation.
Animal suffering is not the
only issue involved in the
traditional Thanksgiving din-
ner, however. There also are
the problems of human health,
world hunger and environ-
mental disasters. More than
40 percent of the antibiotics
produced in this country go
into animal feeds. In the case
of poultry, almost 100 percent
are given antibiotics to coun-
teract the risk of disease,
which arises largely from the
stress attendant upon inten-
sive confinement conditions.
Even more important, it is
common practice to make use
in the animal food industry of
a host of chemical flavorings,
coloring agents and antispoi-
lants, many of which are
known carcinogens.
Giving thanks for the Amer-
ican Colonists survival by
eating meat is also a moral
contradiction, given the world
hunger situation. While peo-
ple in America consume tur-
key on Thanksgiving, thou-
sands upon thousands of
Third World people go with-
out adequate protein and
nutrition.
We can no longer afford to
be so parochial in our diet and
oblivious to the world sit-
uation. The use of land for
raising animals for slaughter
land that could be better used
for growing high-protein vege-
table crops and the feeding of
these foods to food animals,
which could be used instead
for feeding hungry people is
not in the spirit of a true
world Thanksgiving Day.

Wilkes-Barre
Sterling lot ripe
with potential
W
ith the inevitable de-
struction of the once
grand Hotel Sterling on
the horizon, county, city and
community leaders should put
together a concrete plan for
the empty lot that will be left
behind. That lot is too impor-
tant to allow it to remain
vacant.
I have had an idea to trans-
form that lot into the regions
first and only urban market-
place.
After visiting The Reading
Terminal Market in Philadel-
phia many times and seeing
how successful and vibrant it
is, I believe the same can be
done in downtown Wilkes-
Barre. We already have a very
successful, seasonal Farmers
Market on Public Square.
This project would allow
the Farmers Market and its
merchants to operate year
round and out of the weather.
I envision a stylish new par-
kade (perhaps with a clock
tower attached to make it look
good) on the site where the
crumbling hotel now stands.
The ground-floor level of the
parkade would be the actual
urban market, with the par-
kade being above.
The parkade would not only
serve as much-needed parking
for downtown and the market-
place, but also would play a
dual role as being a main
parking area for The River
Common.
Why cant our leaders deliv-
er what so many other com-
munity leaders can? It is our
time to shine and have some-
thing of which to be proud.
Our leaders should be col-
lectively working and brain-
storming to come up with a
prominent, large-scale, lasting
idea for the huge void that will
be left behind when the old
hotel is razed.
The Wyoming Valley Mar-
ketplace is my grand idea.
What are some of yours?

River dredging
benefits revisited
W
here were you when Mrs.
Johns was fighting the
U.S. Army Corps of Engi-
neers to have the Susquehan-
na River dredged, thereby
protecting your homes? Look
at your homes today; if you
would have supported her, you
would have been spared.
The corps claims the levees
protected the Wyoming Valley
during the September flood-
ing. If this were so, why is
there so much damage in West
Pittston, Duryea, Plymouth
Township and Shickshinny?
Are these not part of the
Wyoming Valley? People from
these areas have helped to pay
for the levees that seemingly
contributed to the destruction
of their homes.
The river bed is getting
higher every year. Are we
going to spend tax dollars to
raise the levees every time we
have bad storms? They esti-
mate it will cost $1 million to
repair these levees.
Why not do what is right
and dredge the river to protect
all of the Wyoming Valley?
Our governor has allocated
$14 million to dredge the
Delaware River. Now, if it is
good for the Delaware River,
why not dredge the Susque-
hanna River?

New county DA
faces challenges
W
hat were Luzerne Coun-
tys voters thinking?
The ugly kids-for-cash
scandal once more raised its
ugly head on Election Day
when the voters ousted Dis-
trict Attorney Jackie Musto
Carroll for what apparently
was deemed noncompliance.
When the Interbranch Com-
mission on Juvenile Justice
put a plaque on DA Carrolls
back for failure to do nothing
in the scandal, her fate was
sealed. However, voting her
out and placing the prose-
cuting system in the county
with someone without any
true experience is ludicrous.
This is tantamount to putting
a high school quarterback in
to play Sunday for the Green
Bay Packers.
So where do we go from
here?
Attorney Stefanie Salavan-
tis campaign ad claimed she
will be hardworking and hon-
est. So was President Jimmy
Carter, one of our most inept
presidents.
My advice for attorney
Salavantis would be to ask
District Attorney Carroll for
access to her office for the
next two months. Get in the
locker room before you get on
the playing field.
Next, do what President
Franklin Roosevelt did in the
Great Depression: Form a
brain trust. That is, dont
hire lawyer friends, but in-
stead surround yourself with
the best and brightest at-
torneys you can find.
For our soon-to-be district
attorney: I wish you the best
of luck and always remem-
ber you are only as good as
the people who work for you.
Congratulations.

Gauging response
to river flooding
L
ike so many people with
properties along the North
Branch of the Susquehanna
River, I am an anxious river-
watcher during hurricanes,
snowmelts and tropical
storms.
When potential flooding is
imminent, I typically use the
U.S. Geological Survey data
that instantaneously monitors
the hydraulic gauge height for
many rivers and streams. Of
particular interest to me is the
Towanda station, since I have
property slightly south of
Wyalusing. This website has
historical data that dates to
1865. Additional stations of
interest to me are the gauge
heights of Wilkes-Barre, Tunk-
hannock and the Lackawanna
River/streams.
For Tropical Storm Lee, this
data projected a crest at To-
wanda at 32 to 33 feet.
Tropical Storm Lee pro-
duced a Towanda crest of 33
feet, and typically the river
level in Towanda produces a
crest in Wilkes-Barre of nine
to 10 feet higher, or approxi-
mately 43 feet. So the projec-
tion of 38.6 feet in Wilkes-
Barre should have been recog-
nized as erroneous based on
the historical hydraulic data
and river crests upriver of
Wilkes-Barre.
Second, once the Wilkes-
Barre gauge was fixed, it re-
corded a height of 42.6 feet,
and declared a new record
over Agnes. Again, I dont
believe that Lee produced a
new record, since the USGS
website indicated a gauge
height in Wilkes-Barre at 44
feet.
A telephone pole near my
property is accurately marked
(using a transit and flood
levels on buildings) with the
floods of 1972, 75, 96 and
2011. Lees level was 13 inches
below Agnes, so I propose that
the Agnes record still stands.
There is much speculation
about river-dredging to im-
prove the channel. However
because of cost, this proposal
is quickly shelved. A quick
observation can be made re-
garding the formation of is-
lands. As silt and debris col-
lect and vegetation grows,
more debris accumulates.
These islands expand, which
further chokes the channel
and artificially raises gauge
heights over historical data.
Its like adding stones to a
glass of water. Im sure if
topographical mapping of
these islands existed today
and they were compared with
much older Pennsylvania data,
the impact of this island
expansion could be deter-
mined.
In addition, as many of
these islands expand, they
eventually become part of the
shoreline with further reduc-
tion of the river channel.
One might say that these
islands are insignificant in
raising gauge heights, but
without any data or observa-
tion, another guessing game
is apparent.
So, what if the vegetation
and debris on these islands
were burned? Then a small
excavator could be used to
remove burned remnants and
allow the river to purge itself
and to get back to its original
channel.
The Susquehanna River has
a lot of potential, but it needs
our attention and respect!

Thornhurst faces
expansion threat
I
n an effort to update electric
service, PPL is proposing to
erect a 230-kilovolt trans-
mission line through Thorn-
hurst Township. While resi-
dents arent opposed to more
efficient, reliable service,
many people who live and
visit here are concerned that
colossal metal towers will
spoil a rare natural setting
enjoyed by Pennsylvania resi-
dents for more than a hundred
years.
Thornhurst is three-quar-
ters pristine state forest, with
access to the Lehigh River and
its tributaries. This is public
land regularly used by people
from Wilkes-Barre, Scranton
and surrounding communities
to connect with nature and
enjoy outdoor recreation.
Whether it is to hunt, fish,
hike, swim, picnic, boat, cross-
country ski or engage in other
activities, this natural setting
is a gem that embraces and
nurtures all who come here.
If the PPL proposed route is
given the nod by the Public
Utility Commission, 145-foot
towers will be lined up along
the route. These towers will
form a veritable highway of
steel and electric lines. A
surrounding, 150-foot-wide
swathe will be devoid of trees,
and herbicides will be used to
maintain clearance.
Residents are concerned
that herbicides leaching into
ground water eventually will
make their way into the Le-
high River and its tributaries,
affecting fish and other wild-
life. The Pennsylvania Legisla-
ture has, after decades of
arduous work by local resi-
dents and others, recently
designated 219 miles of the
Lehigh River and its trib-
utaries as exceptional value
the highest standard of wa-
ter quality given to streams.
The threat of herbicidal
contamination is just another
reason why this line shouldnt
travel through Thornhurst
Township. Other possible
options exist that would be
less intrusive into natural
landscapes: using existing
power lines to carry electricity
but inserting more poles be-
tween them to accommodate
heavier wire load, using old
railroad beds or running lines
along existing highways and
roadways.
These or other alternatives
could leave a rare and histor-
ically beautiful environment
unspoiled for generations to
come.

Postal hearing
slated for Tuesday
A
public input meeting on
the proposed moving of
mail processing oper-
ations from the Scranton Post
Office to the Lehigh Valley
Post Office will be held from
6:30 to 8:30 p.m. Tuesday at
the Scranton High School.
This will affect all residents
in the 184-188 ZIP code areas.
The postal service also is
conducting similar sessions in
Reading, Williamsport and
across the country.
Its imperative that resi-
dents, businesses, local mail-
ers and government officials
attend this meeting to express
opposition to what amounts to
nothing more than the in-
tentional dismantling of the
postal service.
As a 25-year employee of
the postal service and know-
ing, along with my co-work-
ers, what is actually happen-
ing on the workroom floor,
there are some things Id like
you to consider.
These actions, along with
others being considered
such as reducing delivery from
six days to five, raising rates
while reducing service, in
effect having customers pay
first-class rates for second- and
third-class service and elim-
inating 75 percent of door-to-
door delivery are what the
postal service is doing to
save the organization.
This is your chance to stop
these ill-advised and unsup-
ported actions, and to stop the
postal service from becoming
the next Enron.
Remember, cut the fat, cut
the waste, but dont cut the
service!

Ashley
Reader warns
the end is nigh
O
ur time is up. Our civi-
lization is coming to an
end.
We have fallen short of our
goal and purpose on this plan-
et. In fact, we have gone in the
opposite direction.
The two most powerful
value systems on this planet
are science and economics.
Science has replaced the
mythical gods. It would have
you believe that it and it alone
knows what is best for each of
us and for the planet. Science
accepts only what can be seen
and proven, otherwise it
doesnt exist. Science believes
that our existence is an acci-
dent. It is the coming together
of the right elements, which
then form greater compounds,
etc.
The economic value system
has absorbed all of our in-
stitutions globally. Its creed is
profit, power and greed. It is
no more concerned with our
well-being and with the com-
mon good of the planet than
the Man in the Moon.
Together these two systems
have absolutely nothing to do
with our real purpose and why
we are here. In fact, they have
plunged us into a meaningless
existence.

Obama job efforts
deemed lacking
P
resident Obamas massive
expenditures havent been
met with positive results.
Job growth and employ-
ment are still at alarmingly
low levels, but the president
has failed to take this as a
message. By continuing to
spend at a startling rate and
proposing new job-killing
taxes, hes failed to listen to
the American people.
Its time for the adminis-
tration to listen up. Americans
want government to start
taking drastic steps to limit
overspending in the interest of
our nations future.
Small business is the private
sectors number-one employer,
and by introducing new taxes
and industry regulations to
pay for his unprecedented
spending President Obama is
killing job growth.
A Balanced Budget Amend-
ment is a must. It will force
the president and the rest of
Washington to behave like the
rest of us and only spend the
money it has.
We have congressmen in the
area, Rep. Lou Barletta and
Rep. Tom Marino, who get it
that we must curtail the ab-
surd spending in Washington
for the future of our nation.

Paternos impact
on PSU lauded
J
oe Paterno, Penn State
Universitys football coach,
was made a scapegoat in
the universitys child sexual
abuse scandal.
The board of trustees jump-
ed to judgment. Paterno re-
ported the incident to his
superiors; they allegedly failed
to report it to authorities.
There are a lot of people at
fault. This scandal apparently
went on for years, and I be-
lieve someone on the board of
trustees knew about it and
kept quiet. The governor of
Pennsylvania, Tom Corbett,
knew the details when he was
state attorney general. And,
what about the district at-
torney who had the case be-
fore him?
Remember the words of
Christ when they stoned the
prostitute: Those without
sin, cast the first stone.
For all the good he has done
Penn State, Paterno should
have been treated much better
and been allowed to finish out
the season.
He has engaged a fine law-
yer. I hope he takes his name
off the library and asks for his
three and a half million dollars
that he had donated to it.
Moreover, there is a new
building being constructed in
the name of Sue Paterno, Joes
wonderful wife. And she, too,
should ask that her contribu-
tion be returned.
I believe Joe Paterno should
sue Penn State for rushing to
judgment in disgracing a fine
and charitable family man.
Penn State does not deserve in
any way to have any kind of
credit ascribed historically to
Paterno, who has given 60
years of his life to be Penn
State proud.
And, if they decide to take
down his statue, I proudly will
take it and put it on my front
lawn.

Dairy marketing
bill commended
O
n Oct. 26, more than 20
members and friends of
the Progressive Agricul-
ture Organization traveled to
Washington, D.C., to discuss
the Casey Bill with the aides
of several congressmen and
senators.
U.S. Sen. Robert P. Casey
Jr., of Scranton, already has
introduced the Federal Milk
Marketing Improvement Act
of 2011 (S-1640) into the U.S.
Senate. The Pro-Ag members
anticipate that some of the
other senators who had their
aides present for the briefing
will join forces and start to
move the legislation forward.
Pro-Ag officials continued
to impress upon the aides that
S-1640 is the only proposed
bill that will cover the dairy
farmers cost of production as
well as return a potential
profit to dairy farmers.
Equally as important,
S-1640 is the only dairy bill
that will not cost the U.S.
government any money!
Pro-Ag members are contin-
ually making calls to U.S.
senators and congressmen in
an attempt to move along
S-1640. We urge the public to
make calls to their members
of Congress in support of the
Federal Milk Marketing Im-
provement Act of 2011.
Pro-Ag can be reached at
(570) 833-5776.

U.S. becoming
another Europe!
T
he pendulum has swung
too far left. Look at Eu-
rope. It is in worse shape
than the United States and its
problems are having an ill
effect on the U.S. economy.
Why?
Its social programs reward
people for less work and less
productivity. For example, a
35-hour work week, four
weeks vacation, excessive sick
and personal days. Sound
familiar?
The United States is no
longer a manufacturing coun-
try. Ford and GM assemble
vehicles in Mexico! Northeast-
ern Pennsylvania no longer
has shoe, furniture, dress,
cigar, steel or railcar factories.
Many people now retire at
age 55 with pensions of 50 to
90 percent of their former
salaries. The city of Philadel-
phia has more people collect-
ing pensions than are current-
ly working for the city. Any-
one remember the term
featherbedding? We are
killing the golden goose.
Its time to swing the pendu-
lum back to center and right!
Lets think about our chil-
dren and grandchildren. Ad-
mit it, extended unemploy-
ment compensation is a nega-
tive incentive to look for or go
back to work.
Union members: Do not be
a puppet. Please vote your
conscience, not as directed by
union leaders.
The United States is at a
crossroad. We all must sacri-
fice. As a 60-plus-year-old man
and one of five siblings, I
remember my father worked
as a coal miner and a baker,
plus did odd jobs on the side.
My mom also worked. I didnt
realize, until I was a teenager,
that we were poor.

cusers who have been identified
have had their backgrounds and
personal lives scoured by the Cain
campaign and the media.
On Wednesday, one of the wom-
enwho receiveda settlement from
the restaurant association, Karen
Kraushaar, told The New York
Times: Anyone should be able to
report allegations of sexual harass-
ment without fear that their lives
and careers will be put on public
display and laid open to public
scrutiny.
Though never caught in a pub-
licity whirlwind the likes of which
Cains accusers have seen, Cheryl
Lockard said she experienced gut-
wrenching sexual harassment in a
small central Illinois town.
Lockard was the treasurer of
First Baptist Church in Canton.
She accused the pastor of harass-
ing her starting in 2003 by,
among other things, making sex-
ual remarks, massaging her
shoulders without her permis-
sion and informing her that the
office dress code required her to
wear halter tops and miniskirts.
She also alleged that the church
tried to cover up the situation,
then terminated her position
when she took her complaints to
board members.
Lockards case dragged on for
six years before she ultimately got
satisfaction when the states Hu-
man Rights Commission awarded
her about $63,000 in September
2009. But the emotional toll was
immense.
In such a small community, it
was difficult to be anonymous. At
thesupermarket, shewouldrunin-
to acquaintances who would turn
around and go the other way. Peo-
ple called her a liar and accused
her of destroying the church. They
wrote letters tothe editor of the lo-
cal paper questioning her charac-
ter and motives.
It did hurt to read those let-
ters, Lockard said. You wonder
how people can say things like, I
know (the pastor) didnt do this
or, This is a disgruntled employ-
ee. How can they make a state-
ment and call it a fact, when they
werent eventhere? But peoplejust
dont want tobelievethis stuff goes
on.
Ananalysis of statistics fromthe
U.S. Equal Employment Opportu-
nity Commission shows that the
number of sexual harassment com-
plaints filed nationally has gone
down by 26 percent since 1997.
Last year, 11,717 cases were filed.
Experts believe there are two
primary reasons for the drop. One
is increased workplace education.
Another is simply a desire by both
sides toresolve the issue andavoid
the emotional toll that comes with
litigation.
Monica Brennan has worked in
human resources in the Chicago
area since 1996 and said she has
dealt with many sexual harass-
ment cases.
Going into these situations, I
dont want anyone to have to seek
legal counsel, she said. It be-
comes dirty and nasty and every-
ones reputation is at stake: the
company, the accused and the ac-
cuser. If I can do anything to make
sure that its resolved amicably, I
will.
In past cases none of which
she said occurred at her current
employer, Bear Construction Co.,
in Rolling Meadows Brennan
has seen wildly varying resolu-
tions, fromthe firing of anaccused
harasser to the reassigning of one
of the people involved in a com-
plaint to a different department.
Attorney Joan Eagle and Zev Ei-
gen, anassistant professor of lawat
Northwestern University, have
each represented defendants in
sexual harassment suits. Theysaid
accusations can wreak havoc on
the lives of those falsely accused.
Long after a case is settled, the ac-
cused must live with co-workers
and family members wondering if
theresanysubstancetotheclaims.
The attorneys said some cases
arebaseless attempts toget money
out of employers sometimes
small payouts are issued to make
cases likethat goaway, demonstra-
tinghowasettlement isnoproof of
guilt. However, Eagle said, repeat-
ed settlements may hide a serial
harasser behind confidentiality
clauses that prevent an airing of
the issues.
Denise Mastro saidshe endured
10 months of harassment before fi-
nally quitting her job in telephone
sales at International Profit Associ-
ates, a Buffalo Grove consulting
business knownas IPAthat agreed
last year to pay $8 million to settle
a class-action suit brought by the
EEOC.
It was like walking into hell,
said Mastro, 49, one of 81 women
in the class when the parties set-
tled.
The suit alleged that women
were regularly propositioned, of-
fered money for sex, groped,
slapped, pinched and subjected to
attempted rape. The company ad-
mitted last year in court filings
that it had engaged in an unlaw-
ful pattern or practice of tolerat-
ing sexual harassment for nearly
eight years.

If anyone believes laughter is the best medi-
cine, its Jeannine Luby.
Luby, 40, of Scranton, has made the art of
chuckling her full-time job, founding Laugh to
Live LLC, a company that promotes the benefits
of laughter to reduce stress and promote healthy
and happy living among organizations that span
workplaces, community groups and schools.
Through Laugh to Live, Luby offers laughter
yoga sessions, which combine laughter with yo-
gic breathing. She is a Laughter Leader certified
by the World Laughter Tour and a Laughter Yoga
Leader certified by the American School of
Laughter Yoga. She also formed the Humor Ther-
apy Fund at the Scranton Area Foundation in
2005 as part of a graduate-student project at Ma-
rywood University.
Luby is now taking a break from her Keep
Wine-ing, He Might Start to Look Like Prince
Charming! comedy tour, the title of which is
based on her 2010 dating manual, Hes Not
Prince Charming When She will begin a sec-
ond round of shows, at venues such as Wood Win-
ery, MountainViewVineyardandVintners Circle,
in the spring.
Why is laughter so important?

Its somethingwe cancontrol. Eventhoughits
not always easy, depending on the day were hav-
ing, we canalways choose to laugh. It doesnt cost
us anything, the effects are instant, andit cando a
lot for our health. The power of laughter is kindof
incomparable; there are fewthings with that kind
of power over our body, mind and spirit. If we
could really tap into the power, we would be un-
stoppable.
If you could make any person laugh, who
would it be, and what joke would you tell them?
Id like to make Jesus laugh. The joke I would
test out on himis the following that Imcurrently
doing in my act: Im starting a campaign called
WWJP: What Would Jesus Post, to imagine
Facebook back in biblical times. Imthinking on a
Saturday night that Jesus might post something
like this: 11:30 p.m. - This party in Cana is off the
hook. 11:50 p.m. Oh, snap they just ran out of
wine. 11:55 p.m. - Goodthing Imhere, partys still
rocking. I think he would appreciate it.
Finish this sentence: He is Prince Charming
when
Hes real, he doesnt pretend, is patient, and
wants to knowthe real you and showyou the real
him.
Best advice anyone has ever given you?
Ive been on this personal-growth thing the
past couple years, and I read a book by Eckhart
Tolle, Awakening to Your Lifes Purpose. From
that I found I really like the idea of wherever
youre at is your starting point. Dont worry about
What if I dont reach this goal? You just go from
where youre at. You always look towards your
next goal.
If you could bring your act to any venue,
where would it be?
Imtotally in love with the French culture. Ive
beenover there. I haveafriendinFranceImgoing
to visit in 2012, so I would love to have a show at
the Eiffel Tower. Id need a translator, but I dont
care, because thats where Id want to be.
Whats the best part about hearing others
laugh?
As far as the stand-up goes, its a bit of stroking
the ego. I feel very proud when I hear people
laugh. I write my own material; its a lot of myself
beingveryvulnerable andopen, soI feel a sense of
pride about it. On a secondary level, its this con-
nection with people. When laughter happens
theres usually this, Oh I get it; I get what youre
saying, and I like that connection with people.
They understand me, and its like were sharing a
moment.

When the studios talk about the
movies they are opening for this holi-
day season, they really mean holi-
days. There was a time when the big
movies were released after Thanks-
giving. Then it got pushed back to
the beginning of November. This
years holiday films started before
Halloween.
Still, if youre a traditionalist who
considers a holiday movie one that
arrives around Thanksgiving or
shortly thereafter, heres what you
have to look forward to in coming
weeks:
WEDNESDAY:
ARTHUR CHRISTMAS
Stars: James McAvoy, Hugh Lau-
rie, Jim Broadbent
Director: Sarah Smith
Plot: Santas misfit son goes on a
mission to deliver a present before
Christmas morning.
What to expect: The idea seems as
dated as last years Christmas gifts.
THE MUPPETS
Stars: Jason Segel, Amy Adams,
Kermit the Frog
Director: James Bobin
Plot: The Muppets reunite for
The Greatest Muppet Telethon Ev-
er to raise money to save their thea-
ter.
What to expect: Muppet fans will
reunite to raise big box-office num-
bers.
HUGO
Stars: ChloeMoretz, JohnnyDepp,
Jude Law, Emily Mortimer
Director: Martin Scorsese
Plot: An orphan living in the walls
of a train station in the 30s gets
pulled into a mystery.
What to expect: Its hard to bet
against a Scorsese movie.
DEC. 9:
NEW YEARS EVE
Stars: Michelle
Pfeiffer, Ashton
Kutcher, Halle Ber-
ry, Jessica Biel
Director: Garry
Marshall
Plot: A group of
New Yorkers cross
paths as they prepare to
greet the new year.
What to expect: This semi-sequel
to Valentines Day certainly has
star power.
THE SITTER
Stars: JonahHill, Ari Graynor, Sam
Rockwell
Director: David Green
Plot: Ababysitter and three young-
sters end up on an adventure that
leads toa wildchase throughthe city.
What to expect: Doesnt look like
the kind of movie youll be willing to
pay a babysitter so you can go see it.
DEC. 16:
YOUNG ADULT
Stars: Charlize Theron, Patrick
Wilson
Director: Jason Reitman
Plot: A writer of teen literature re-
turns to her hometown to find love.
What to expect: At least the dia-
logue should be smart, as its written
by Diablo Cody.

Your ticket to holiday movies
ALNUT CREEK,
Calif. When it comes
to fairy-tale cred, Snow
White is in a league of her
own. With the staunch support of
her seven little BFFs, she trumped
evil, rose from the dead, did the whole
royal-wedding thing and made global head-
lines as the fairest of them all.
Witha resume like that, youdthinkMs.
White would have her own reality TV
show, or at least a guest spot on Glee.
Instead, shes spent recent years in relative
obscurity while other literary goddesses,
namely Cinderella, hogged the limelight.
But thats about to change in a big way. The
sweet-natured lass, who has hung around for centu-
ries, is poised to become Hollywoods newest it girl.
Again.
The SnowWhite comeback tour kicked off recently when she in
theformof actress Ginnifer Goodwinassumedmajor prominence
in Once Upon a Time, an enchanting ABC drama from two for-
mer Lost writers. Reviews mostly have been positive, with
Rolling Stone lauding Goodwin for making history as the first
hot Snow White.
Things heat upevenmore next year whenrival live-action
projects arrive at the cineplex. First up in March is a yet-to-
be-titled filmfromRelativity Media that casts Lily Collins
in the role (and Julia Roberts as the Evil Queen). Then, in
June, comes Universals Snow White and the Hunts-
man, with Kristen Stewart as the snowy one.
But thats not all. Set for 2012 is a Disney live-action
version that aims to dramatically reinvent the saga.
It remains to be seen if these new productions will
make box-office magic or get rejected like a batch of
poison apples. But one thing is clear: Snow White
hasnt been in this much demand since1937, when she
enjoyed a breakout performance in Walt Disneys
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the landmark
animated classic that thrills and terrifies children
even now.
Snow Whites the new it girl.
Actresses portraying the fair-
est role of all are: Lily Col-
lins, above; Ginnifer Good-
win, left, and Kristen
Stewart, above right.
Goodwin kicked off
the comeback
with Once
Upon a
Time.

HOROSCOPE
HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
You have a white-hot burn-
ing desire to accomplish
a certain goal. You will do
whatever it takes for as
long as it takes to bring
this outcome into being.
You are, in short, driven.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
You probably already know
that your sign can be stub-
born about learning from
others. When you have a
mentor you really trust,
the only sensible thing to
do is let go of your defens-
es and learn all you can.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You
have a talent for noticing
big obstacles ahead and
steering to avoid them. Its
the small obstacles and
unanticipated problems
that could bog you down
now if you let them. Stay
positive, and youll keep
moving ahead.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Whatever happened in
the past, leave it there.
You are what you make of
yourself. Remember that
youre in charge, and dont
let other people or circum-
stances determine your
destiny.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You
give your love whole-
heartedly. That could be
overwhelming for certain
people. Not everyone
knows how to open up to
love. Be patient, and try to
give your attention in eas-
ily acceptable doses.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). As
you deal with loved ones,
it may occur to you that
there has got to be a bet-
ter way to communicate.
The secret is in vicinity
and eye contact. Whenever
possible, be close and con-
nected to one another.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Youll decide that your
expressions need to be
heard. What you wear and
how you carry yourself will
be as much a part of that
expression as what you
say, write and present.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Drop your uncertainty
about the future. You can
be sure that youll rise to
the occasion because said
occasion is one that you
have been thinking, wish-
ing and dreaming about
for ages.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). To some extent, this
day is a study in contrast:
the poor against the rich,
the infantile next to the
wise. Youll be prompted to
form some kind of conclu-
sion from all that plays out
before you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). You feel a respon-
sibility to make people
happy. Start with yourself.
Ultimately, youre the only
one you can really control.
But if you can do that,
youll strongly influence
others to enjoy life.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Someone will do a good
deed for you that is kind
of a mixed blessing. On
the one hand, you enjoy
the perk. On the other,
your impetus to return the
favor is quite substantial.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
What you are called on to
handle today is not the
same old crisis of the past.
Its something new and
exciting. Youll have to
release the past in order
to see this for the oppor-
tunity it really is.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Nov.
20). You are not afraid to
fail, and therefore, youll
succeed at a faster rate.
Youll spend many happy
hours with a true friend
next month and into the
new year. January brings
the completion of a proj-
ect, and youll set new
exciting goals, too. A vic-
tory for someone close to
you will affect you favor-
ably in March. Scorpio and
Capricorn people adore
you. Your lucky numbers
are: 20, 14, 33, 1 and 19.

1. We love family picnics out in the
woods. At the last one, we invited
some funny actors over to ham it up.
2. Ken was looking forward to the
big spread at the fancy annual
picnic. He was quite eager to try the
Barbieque.
3. The picnic was a very regal affair.
We had cucumber tarts, great
scones, butter, cream and mugs of
tea, and it was presided over by the
Earl of Sandwich.
4. The picnic fare was perfect: lots of
spicy meatballs, hot peppers,
tomatoes and brownies, with a tasty
side of antacid!
DEAR ABBY
Parents must maintain
contact with daughter
Dear Abby:
Late last
winter, a
sheriff called
to tell me
that my
daughter
Amy had been found stand-
ing, bruised and battered,
on a street corner in upstate
New York. Her arm had
been broken. He was con-
vinced that the man she
was living with had beaten
her and kicked her outside
to freeze. Her sister (my
other daughter) paid to put
her up in a hotel for the
night.
My husband and I were
convinced early on in this
relationship that this mon-
ster was determined to
have us support him finan-
cially, because he would
leave us long, threatening
messages demanding money,
or else our daughter would
be homeless.
Amy moved back in
with him, and I heard
from her sister that the
creep was bringing other
women home for sex.
It raised my hopes that
Amy would give up on
him. Instead, she became
pregnant.
Now Amy is hurt that
I dont call her and share
in this exciting event. When
I try to explain how I feel,
she tells me, Its not about
YOU, Mom. Shes right.
Its about the baby. I am
ashamed to not be able to
change this babys future.
What can I do?
Paralyzed With Fear
Out West
Dear Paralyzed: Make every
effort to prevent your daugh-
ter and grandchild from
becoming isolated from your
family. Some abusers delib-
erately impregnate their vic-
tims in order to keep them
dependent. Keep the contact
and the conversation going,
so that when Amy finally
realizes that her boyfriend
is a danger not only to her
but also to her baby, she can
come to you for help.
Dear Abby: What would you
say is the difference between
a friendship and an emo-
tional affair?
Unhappy Wife
in Pennsylvania
Dear Unhappy Wife: A
friendship is a relationship
in which the spouse feels
included. An emotional
affair is one during which
the spouse writes to Dear
Abby and signs her question
Unhappy.

Snow White is ground zero
for fairy tales. Its where they all
grow from, says Adam Horo-
witz, who created Once Upon a
Time with longtime writing
partner Edward Kitsis. It was
the first movie I saw as a kid. Ev-
erybody loves the character and
loves the story so much that its
going to be continually retold in
new and different ways.
Indeed, while the Disney ver-
sionof SnowWhite has roots in
afablecollectedandpublishedby
German brothers Jacob and Wil-
helm Grimm in the early 1800s,
numerous takes on the tale have
been handed down in oral and
written form over the years. But
why is Hollywood suddenly pil-
ing on now? Maria Tatar, a Har-
vard University professor who
has written extensively about
fairy tales and childrens litera-
ture, believes the Shrek movie
series is partially responsible.
Those wildly popular computer-
animated films put fun newspins
on the old standards.
Before that, Cinderella sto-
ries, in various forms, were all
over the cinematic landscape,
she says. Shrek reminded ev-
eryone that theres a whole wide
range of fairy tale characters, and
that theres more to life than rags-
to-riches.
It probably didnt hurt, either,
that director TimBurtons recent
reboot of Alice in Wonderland
grossed $1.02 billion worldwide.
At a point when the supply of
comic-book superheroes seem-
inglyis close todepletion, screen-
writers are now turning to the
stories we used to hear at bed-
time.
Hollywood is reading the
mood of the public and, in these
tough times, people want hope
and fantasy, Kitsis says. Fairy
tales are like the lottery. Its the
belief that you can change your
crappy life in an instant.
Snow Whites adventures con-
tinue to fascinate audiences for a
number of reasons, literary ex-
perts say.
Its a gruesome story with a
strong heroine and sublime end-
ing. Whats not tolike? asks Kate
Bernheimer, who founded the
Fairy Tale Review (www.fairy-
talereview.com). It presents a
world where we can experience
terror, adventure and bliss. Good
will survives amid terrible prob-
lems. The underdog will win. Its
an adventure story, and its magic
is spare: a talking mirror, a shiny
object that speaks the truth.
SNOW
Continued fromPage 1F
Snow White and the
Seven Dwarfs was an
enormous hit in 1937.
1812: The Grimm Brothers
publish their dark tale, derived
from earlier versions in various
European countries. Originally,
the young heroine is victimized
by the jealousy of her natural
mother, later changed to her
stepmother.
1916: Marguerite Clark stars in
a silent-film version of Snow
White. It makes an indelible
impression on a young Kansas
City boy by the name of Walt
Disney.
1937: Defying naysayers who
claim the project will lead to his
financial ruin, Disney takes a
major risk with Snow
White and the Seven
Dwarfs. Its the first
feature-length, full-
color animated film
produced in America.
Its also an enormous
hit.
1943: Warner Bros. releases
Coal Black and de Sebben
Dwarfs, a controversial short
film that parodies the Disney
version with an all-black cast
and sexual overtones. It is later
removed from circulation.
1961: The story is parodied
again in Snow White and The
Three Stooges. The leading
lady is Olympic figure-skating
champ Carol Heiss.
1987: The Charmings, an ABC
sitcom, whips up a tale in which
Snow White and Prince Char-
ming find themselves living in
the suburbs of Southern Cali-
fornia.
1989: Its an Oscars telecast
moment that lives on in infamy:
An off-key Rob Lowe is accom-
panied by a ditsy Snow White
(Eileen Bowman) during a
cheesy opening number. Disney
threatens legal action.
1997: Things turn really creepy
in the horror movie Snow
White: A Tale of Terror, star-
ring Sigourney Weaver and
Sam Nell. Ominous ads for the
film claim, The fairy tale is
over.
2007: In Shrek the Third,
Snow White (voiced by Amy
Poehler) goes from meek push-
over to kick-butt action hero,
using her syrupy singing voice
to seduce forest animals into
following her command.
2011: The new ABC drama
Once Upon a Time (8 p.m.
Sundays) has Snow White
(Ginnifer Goodwin) banished to
the modern world, thanks to a
curse by the Evil Queen.
SNOW WHITE THROUGH THE YEARS
Snow White is ground zero for fairy tales.
Everybody loves the character and loves the story so much that its going to
be continually retold in new and different ways.
AdamHorowitz
Who created Once Upon a Time with
longtime writing partner Edward Kitsis
W
e get it already: Michael Jackson was
kind of a weird dude.
In the weeks, months and now years
since the music icons death, news consumers
across the globe have been inundated with ex-
aminations of Jacksons life. And frankly, too
muchof it has focusedonthe sensational aspects
of his 50 years on Earth.
Luckily, for those of us who prefer to remem-
ber Jackson as a once-in-a-generation entertain-
er and the undisputed King of Pop and not so
much for his sometimes peculiar personal choic-
es, we have Joseph Vogel in our corner.
Vogel, who writes about popular culture, mu-
sic and politics for The Huffington Post and
teaches at the University of Rochester, has writ-
ten a book that focuses solely on Jacksons cre-
ative output.
Man in the Music is thankfully all about just
that the music.
And its really good.
Vogel takes the reader album-by-album, song-
by-song and examines in exhaustive detail how
Jackson produced a lifetimes worth of music
that became a soundtracktothe lives of millions.
Jacksons Motown years, in-
cluding his work with The
Jackson 5, isnt covered in
Man in the Music, which fo-
cuses on the singers solo
work, beginning with 1979s
mega-selling Off the Wall all
the way through Invincible
in 2001.
Vogel, relying on news ar-
chives, Jacksons words and
interviews with those who
collaborated on the albums,
opens the door to the studio
and provides an in-depth pic-
ture of the artists creative
process. Each song Jackson recorded during his
solo career is examined with a critical eye.
Its a fascinating read and really a must-have
for any Jackson fan.
I wanted to write something historically and
critically rigorous, but approachthe subject with
less cynicism and curiosity, Vogel writes in the
preface.
Mission accomplished, sir.
By MIKE HOUSEHOLDER Associated Press

The Adventures of Tintin is a real Christmas treat.
The seven video screens in the new
youngadult thriller DarkEden flicker in
black and white not only as described
in the books text but through an accom-
panying downloadable
app that plays out the
storys action in video
snippets viewable on
iPhones, iPods, iPads
and Android devices.
Thebackcover of thelat-
est multimedia creation
from bestselling author
Patrick Carman also in-
corporates a QRcode al-
lowing readers to watch
the ominously creepy
Dark Eden trailer.
Isit abook?Afilm?An
audio book? Dark
Edenisall threeaneffort toencourage
reluctant readers to embrace the written
wordthroughtechnological enticements.
Dark Eden is a compelling read that
transposes the best aspects of classic hor-
ror storytelling onto a modern back-
woods adventure experienced by seven
terrified teens.
Each of them suffers from a fear of
rabid dogs, rickety ladders, kidnapping.
None of them understands why, despite
years of psychotherapy. So their doctor
corrals themtogether, driving themdeep
intoa woodedarea onL.A.s outskirts and
droppingthemoff, saying, Acure is wait-
ing for each of you down that path.
Their doctor refers to themas The 7.
All of themare15years old. Theyre a mix
of hormone-addled boys and girls, some
of whom are inevitably romantically in-
volved. None had met before being
packed into their doctors van. Theyre
panicked to discover their cellphones are
out of service range and even more
freaked that the first person they meet is
Mrs. Goring a crotchety woman of in-
determinate age whose first words of ad-
vice are: Act like grown-ups and I wont
spit in your oatmeal.
Mrs. Goring is one of just two people
living at Fort Eden a compound that
consistsof buildingsnotableonlyfor their
bunker-esque architecture and sturdy
iron doors. Rainsford also lives on the
premises, perfecting his cure for fear,
though the details of how he does so are
unclear.
Facedwithloomingdarknessandalack
of survival skills, sixof thekids venturein-
to the appropriately named fort, but Will
Besting stays behind. Will, it turns out, is
scaredof peopleandfindscomfort intech-
nology, specifically vintage video games
and the audio recording device he
brought with him. The Recorder, as he
calls it, was cobbled together from old
iPods and digital cameras he bought on
Craigslist and reassembled into a device
he uses to record audio and video.
Readers can hear and watch what hes
recorded through the Dark Eden app,
the first episode of which consists of sha-
ky video footage of the teens walk
through the woods and audio files of the
sevens psychotherapy sessions that Will
surreptitiously downloaded fromhis doc-
tors computer. The first episode is free.
Subsequent chapters can be purchased
for 99 cents apiece or in their entirety for
$9.99.
As befits a story taking place just out-
sideof L.A., all of thecharacters intheapp
are Hollywood-slick. Andso are the video
and audio production values, which am-
plify, rather than detract from, Carmans
inventive storytelling. Dark Eden is a
fast-pacedthrill ride that ends withbigre-
veals about why the seven were taken to
the fort and subjected to Rainsfords ther-
apy. Readers will need to wait until the
second, andfinal, bookintheseriestofind
out if the fear cure actually works.

P
lanning a vacation with two generations par-
ents andkids canbe tricky. Planninga vacation
with three generations grandparents, parents
and kids can be daunting. With family get-to-
gethers coming up over the holidays, and some families al-
ready planning next years trips, here are three first-person
stories about different types of multi-generation vacations
a roadtrip, a house rental anda cruise as recountedby
Associated Press reporters.
Road trip
Some of my happiest child-
hood memories are of the road
trips I took with my grandpar-
ents, mother and brother in the
1960s. One year we made a loop
through the Pacific Northwest;
another year we visited national
parks including Yellowstone and
the Grand Tetons. I remember
the unreal blue of Crater Lake
andthewell-thumbedAAAguide
that steered us to inexpensive
motels.
After my daughter was born, it
seemed natural to return to
three-generation vacationing. In
thepast fiveyears mymother, my
daughter and I have crisscrossed
much of the United States. Weve
been to Colonial Williamsburg,
Mount Rushmore and Yellow-
stone again. Weve been to the
White Mountains of New Hamp-
shire and the Great Smoky
Mountains of Tennessee.
My mother, a historian as well
as the captain of our expeditions,
has aimed to balance kid-friendly
activities with the historical and
cultural attractions she craves. A
museum one day, a trail ride the
next. It hasnt always gone
smoothly, but its been fun.
Williamsburgs 18th-century
re-enactments were right up my
mothers cobblestone alley. My
daughter was 8 that year, and her
attention wavered. A brickmak-
ingdemonstrationinterestedher
more than a tour of the Gover-
nors Palace. But a promise that
the following day would be spent
at a water park kept grumbling in
check.
We went to Mount Rushmore
in 2008. I had not seen it before
and was suitably awestruck. My
daughter thought it was cool. In
planningthe trip, my mother had
not realized that our stay in
South Dakota would coincide
with the Sturgis Rally, which at-
tracts hundreds of thousands of
motorcycle riders annually.
As we drove through Colora-
do, Wyoming and South Dakota
that August it seemed we were
the only non-bikers on the road.
The restaurants and motels were
full of beefy, tattooed men in
Sturgis T-shirts. Members of a
biker church sold bottled water
at a rest stop. They could not
have been nicer to us. One of my
abiding memories of that trip is
my 10-year-old taking turns on
the indoor water slide at a hotel
in Rapid City with a biker who
seemed to enjoy the splashdown
as much as she did.
Earlier this year, we visited
Tennessee and the Civil War bat-
tlefields of Stones River and Shi-
loh. Exhibits and ranger talks
brought wartime heroism to life,
though my daughters attention,
once again, flagged. But she liked
the zipline course at Ruby Falls,
near Chattanooga, and all of us
enjoyed the Lookout Mountain
Incline Railway, which has a 72.7
percent grade and bills itself as
the worlds steepest passenger
railway. Families that visit the ar-
ea should consider staying, as we
did, at the Chattanooga Choo
Choo hotel, where the lobby is
the citys lovingly restored his-
toric trainstationandyoucaneat
dinner in a repurposed dining
car.
Well do another trip next year,
destination as yet unplanned. I
cant wait.

House rental
As an American, Im used to
the If its Tuesday, this must be
Belgium style of travel, running
frenetically from place to place.
But when the British side of
the family proposed spending
two weeks relaxing on a rustic
property outside a small town in
Tuscany, I had to confess it
sounded idyllic.
We were 20-odd family mem-
bers and partners, from an 18-
month-old to an 87-year-old,
coming in from London, New
York, Boston, Madrid and the
Italian city of Padua.
We stayed in three stone
houses atop those lovely Tuscan
hills. We were 45 minutes from
the nearest big tourist attraction
the medieval city of Siena
and we had no plans, other than
swimming, reading, cooking,
eating and spur-of-the-moment
excursions if we felt like it.
We had no cooks coming in, as
some do. Instead, in a brilliant
system devised by two young
members of our group, we divid-
edintoteams of twoor three peo-
ple. Each team was responsible
for meal duty one day a week.
The teamwould do all shopping,
cooking, serving and cleanup.
And everyone else would relax,
knowing they soon would have a
turn.
There was an indoor kitchen,
but we never used it. All meals
were cooked in an outdoor kitch-
en that boasted a wood-fired grill
and eaten on a stone deck. Din-
ners were long and leisurely
come to think of it, so were
lunches always with a fewbot-
tles of nice Tuscan wine. Nobody
watched television. Instead we
talked, played cards and read
books, thoughI have toadmit my
youngkids, deprivedof their usu-
al electronics, were addicted to
games on their fathers iPad (to
his annoyance.)
On days where the sun and the
pool seemed a bit too much, or
when we feared our kids were
getting too noisy, we packed
them up in the car and took off.
We brought the kids into Siena
for an afternoon stroll one day,
then came back ourselves just
parents to see the art and
amazing mosaic floor of the ca-
thedral. (I am forever grateful to
the older family members who
babysat the kids.)
Though this holiday was not
planned around kids Europe-
ans, sensibly, do that much less
than Americans there were in-
teresting places for them to see,
too. On a trip to Pisa to pick up
her older sister, our young
daughter enjoyed seeing the
Leaning Tower, which has been
shored up, but still leans. And
they loved Bomarzo, a 16th-cen-
tury Park of Monsters, full of
scary stone sculptures. (They al-
so liked a nearby complex of out-
let stores much less romantic,
but there you have it.)
One of my favorite events was
also the most unexpected: An
evening talent show. Nobody got
a pass; everyone had to have an
act. Performances took place on
the deck where we ate. We had
three judges, American Idol
style, and cream pies to throw at
the judges at the end.
But the biggest surprise for me
was somethingmany people take
for granted. In the decade since I
had become a mother, I had nev-
er once been able to read a book
on holiday. This time, with the
help of a huge crew to entertain
the kids, I actually read an entire
book: Life, by Keith Richards.
Cover to cover. Victory!

al Writer Jocelyn Noveck
Cruise
My brothers and I had not
shared a vacation since we were
kids. Now we were grown, with
eight children from 12 to 27 be-
tween us, all standing on the
deck of a cruise ship as it pulled
away from the Seattle harbor,
headed toward Alaska.
It was my mothers idea. Acou-
ple of years had passed since my
fathers death, and I believe the
trip was her way of saying, Your
father isnt here anymore, but
were still a family.
My brothers and our wives
trieddifferent things fromwhale-
watching to sea kayaking to vis-
iting the art galleries and gift
shops in port towns. On the ship,
diversions ranged from photog-
raphy classes to a talent show to
an Elton John tribute act he
was actually good. And a bonus:
My younger brother won the
ships blackjack tournament.
The seven grandchildren went
on many of the same trips, but
what they enjoyed most was the
freedom to roam the ship, eating
what they wanted when they
wanted it. The prepaid all-you-
can-drink soda cards made the
younger ones such as my son, 12
at the time, feel like big shots,
and theyre a bargain compared
with paying by the glass.My
daughter, then 17, said there
could have been more activities
for teens. The club and game
roomonthe HollandAmerica ms
Oosterdamwere aimed at young-
er kids.
The cruise lines are trying to
fight the image that they appeal
mostly to older people by adding
new entertainment acts (Norwe-
gian brags about the Blue Man
Group), amusement areas com-
plete with a carousel (Royal Ca-
ribbeans Allureof theSeas), rock
climbing walls, 3-D movies and
other attractions. Disney has its
own cruise line.
Sometimes, just the route
might make a difference for
younger family members. Onour
tripalongthe Alaska coast, it was
cold enough most days that the
kids didnt want to swim on the
ship, and of course snorkeling ex-
cursions were out of the ques-
tion.
A cruise is a good option if
there are family members who
have limited mobility. It also
eliminates the need to pack and
unpackeveryday, yet thescenery
changes with every destination.
Bigships tendtohavemoreactiv-
ities, and they have a range of
room sizes and prices an im-
portant consideration for many
multi-generation family trips.
While everyone in our group
trieddifferent activities eachday,
we gathered as a family for din-
ner, just as we did years ago at
home. Its those memories of
spending time together that will
endure long after the excursions
have ended.

restoration in Pisa, Italy. Planning a vacation with three generations - grandparents, parents and kids - can be tricky. Renting a home
in Italy and seeing the sights is one option.
Associated Press writer Jocelyn Noveck and some 20 others in an extended family enjoyed a two-
week vacation based at this home with a pool in Tuscany, Italy.

Advertising Projects Writer
Striking architecture and an amazing
layout are just a few of the highlights
at this two-story contemporary in the
Amber Woods development in Lehman
Twp. Just off Jackson Rd. and near to
the Huntsville Dam, this approximately
4,700-square-foot beauty has ve bed-
rooms, ve baths and elegant details
such as an ultra-modern granite kitchen
and two-story great room with replace.
Listed by Margy Simms of Lewith and
Freeman Real Estate for $445,000, this
stellar home was built in 2007 and also
has a beautifully nished lower level
that offers an exceptional family room
loaded with custom cabinetry. Among
the features you will fall in love with at
this home are the unique oor plan that
offers angled rooms, unique rooines,
and the dramatic two-story portico that
frames the front entry.
A beautiful inlaid marble tile oor
welcomes guests into the dramatic foyer
where an angled staircase leads to the
second oor. To the left, you have the
21-by-16 vaulted living room, with a two-
story chimney that hosts a wood-burning
replace and cayenne colored walls. To
the right of the foyer, the 16-by-13 dining
room has hardwood ooring, green walls
and large windows.
The adjacent kitchen is a cooks dream
with an amazing number of cherry cabi-
nets and a large island topped by black
speckled granite designed to accent a
tan ceramic tile oor. The cabinets are
oversized, making good use of the height
provided by a nine-foot ceiling. There
are two windows set on an angle facing
rear. Top-of-the-line appliances include a
trash compactor, dishwasher, refrigera-
tor, stove and a second bar refrigerator
for storing drinks. A door opens to the
rear deck.
A nearby study also has a door to the
deck and more of the beautiful hardwood
ooring. At 12-by-12, this bright and
sunny room has two large windows rear
and a double closet. A laundry has a tile
oor, blue walls, storage cabinets and a
utility sink. Next door, the powder room
offers a black and white tile oor, strik-
ing red walls and a white pedestal sink,
with a single side-facing window.

wood ooring. Two is a popular number
