WILKES-BARRE A 19-year-old
man police identied Wednesday as the
suspect in the deadly shooting Sunday
morning was free on bail when he
attempted to kill another man earlier
this year.
Police obtained an arrest warrant for
Joshua Carlos Ovalles, of Kent Lane,
Wilkes-Barre, charging him in the slay-
ing of Vaughn Kemp, 24, outside 174
S. Grant St. Ovalles was still at large
Wednesday night.
Witnesses told police Ovalles and
Kemp were arguing in front of the house
when Ovalles red several rounds,
according to the criminal complaint.
An autopsy revealed Kemp died from
multiple gunshot wounds. He became
the sixth homicide victim within the
city limits this year.
In another development Wednesday,
the city condemned the Grant Street res-
idence for a cockroach infestation under
the health code. The residents were
forced to leave, and it will not reopen

WEST PITTSTON
Federal agents with the
Department of Homeland
Security arrested two people
Wednesday on charges they
were distributing synthetic
designer drugs known as bath
salts.
Todd A. Morgans, 34, and
Christa Lee Policare, 20, were
arrested when agents raided
their house at 217 Liberty St.
early Wednesday morning.
Morgans and Policare were
indicted by a federal grand
jury Tuesday on conspiracy
to distribute a controlled sub-
stance, notably bath salts. The
indictment became unsealed
on Wednesday.
Neighbors in the residen-
tial neighborhood reported
hearing two gunshots when
agents forced their way inside
the two story house that had
a Confederate ag hanging on
the front porch and security
cameras mounted near the
front door, a front window and
rear door.
Two dogs were shot and
killed. The animals were taken
away by the SPCA of Luzerne
County.
I saw a bunch of cops pull
up and jump out of the car,
said neighbor Bruce Tobin. I
looked down the street and we
heard them bust in the door
and the next thing you heard
were gunshots, two gunshots.
We didnt know any of this
was going on in our neighbor-
hood. Its a shame, there are a
lot of kids in this area.
A 13-year-old girl was also
removed from the house,
neighbors said.
Joe Biscotto of Liberty
Street said he has complained
about the house for more than
a year. He said people would
cause disturbances at all hours
of the night, including barking
like animals and yelling.
There has been all types of
activity where the drug bust
happened, Biscotto said.

Charles Ferner calls his
son a real hero.
Ferner, of Mountain
Top, said his son,
retired Lt. Col.
Timothy Ferner,
reported a multi-
mi l l i on- dol l a r
fraud case, blow-
ing the whistle
on an improper
deal that was
condoned by his
superiors.
The law rm that rep-
resented him James,
Hoyer, Newcomer &
Smiljanich, P.A., of
Tampa, Fla. said Ferner
bucked the chain of com-
mand putting his career
on the line to expose the
fraud, waste and abuse.
According to the law
rm, major defense contrac-
tor Science Applications
International Corporation
agreed to pay the U.S.
government $5.75 million
to settle allegations that it
circumvented the bidding
process and induced the
Air Force to award
the company lucra-
tive contracts.
Ferner, 49, a
career military man
with 27 years in the
U.S. Air Force, led
the whistle blower
suit in 2010.
Ferner gradu-
ated from Scranton
Prep High School and
attended The University
of Scranton before n-
ishing his degree at the

Daniel Chipego worked
as Luzerne County deputy
controller for only three
months this year but will
still receive a county pen-
sion because of a pension
law anomaly.
The amount is so minus-
cule $1.50 a month
county retirement board
members plan to propose
a lump-sum payout to get
him off the pension rolls.
It would probably cost
us more per month to do
the check, board mem-
ber John Evanchick, a
deputy sheriff, said dur-
ing Wednesdays meeting.
The pension must be
offered because Chipego
is 63, and state pen-
sion law says employees
are eligible for pension
once they reach age 60,
regardless of how long
theyve worked for the
county, said county retire-
ment coordinator Rick
Hummer.
County ofcials were
surprised to learn about
the loophole last year
when Thomas Cooney
received a $71 monthly
pension after two years
as a county commis-
sioner. Former sheriff
John Gilliam, also a two-
year employee, received
a monthly pension in the
same amount.
Typically, employees
must have ve years of
county employment to
be vested, or eligible, to
receive a pension.

HAZLETON About a dozen area residents
marched into state Rep. Tarah Toohils district ofce
Wednesday to ask why she voted against Medicaid
expansion in Pennsylvania.
They didnt get answers because Toohil wasnt
there, but they left questions and concerns with
staffers, who promised Toohil would get back to
them.
RoseYanko of Wilkes-Barre said she has been
a licensed practical nurse for nearly 20 years and
couldnt afford health insurance while she was work-
ing. Now, she has liver disease and has been putting
off a biopsy for four years because
she cant afford to pay for one.
Im a single mother with two
daughters who just graduated col-
lege. Im the only parent that they
have, and I want to live. I dont want
liver cancer. I want something to be
done, and there are 700,000 other
people (in Pennsylvania) who need
coverage beside myself, Yanko said.
Yanko said Toohil ipped the
script on health care, breaking promises she made
during campaigns. She and other demonstrators
said they came out after learning Toohil, R-Butler
Township, spoke on the House oor last week, advo-
cating that language authorizing Medicaid expan-
sion be stripped from a welfare-related bill that had
bipartisan approval in the Senate, which the House
Rules Committee did.
Brian Symone, an employee at Schuylkill Medical
Center, said his employer and other safety net hos-
pitals, which he said are required to treat everyone,
with or without insurance, would be out of business
in a matter of years without Medicaid expansion and
if cuts to Medicaid continue.
Alex Mclean of Hazleton said he works in a
health care facility and cant afford company health
care insurance premiums. Now I have to decide
whether Im going to continue working in a profes-
sion I enjoy or end up going to a better paying job
that will also offer me the insurance that I desperate-
ly need due to a shoulder injury that I got at work.
Toohil said in a phone interview later Wednesday
that she is not necessarily opposed to Medicaid

WILKES-BARRE TWP.
The board overseeing the opera-
tions of the Mohegan Sun Arena
at Casey Plaza approved insur-
ance coverage for the installation
of a new roof and for liability pro-
tection for itself.
The continuation of an existing
policy and the addition of a new
one were voted on Wednesday at
the regular monthly meeting of
the Luzerne County Convention
Center Authority.
The premium for Directors
& Ofcers insurance coverage
increased to $7,780 up $112 from
last year through carrier State
National. It provides $3 million in
aggregate coverage and a $2,500
deductible. It also provides
employment practices liability
insurance against wrongful termi-
nation, discrimination and sexual
harassment claims by employees.
Joe Joyce of Joyce Insurance
Group, Pittston, the agent han-
dling the policy, told the board
its very difcult to nd higher
limits of coverage. He said the
policy is very good with unlimit-
ed defense costs. Sometimes the
defense costs can be more than
the award, Joyce said.
If a claim resulted in a verdict
with an award of $1 million and
$2 million in defense costs, the
policy picks up both costs, he
explained.
The board approved the addi-
tion of a builders risk insurance
policy through its carrier Chubb
for $1.5 millionincoverage for the
installation of the roof. The board
last week awarded the contract
to low-bidder Dunmore Roong
for the $1.2 million job.
The boards construction com-
mittee was designated to approve
change orders on an emergency
basis for the project.
Other components of the
arena that opened in 1999 will
be inspected at a total cost
of $42,000. High Concrete of
Denver submitted a quote of
$19,980 to inspect the pre-cast
concrete throughout the build-
ing. Premium Builders of Wilkes-
Barre offered quotes of $6,300
for the windows and casings and
$11,220 for the exterior metal
panels. Quad 3 Group of Wilkes-
Barre will participate in the
inspections.
Rebecca Bonnevier, general
manager of the arena for SMG,
said the facilitys ranking moved
up further in the top 10 of Mid-
Year Top Stops by Venues Today.
The ranking was amended to
ninth place on the list from 10th
for venues with seating capacity
between 5,000 and 10,000. The
rankings were determined from
total gross dollars for events held
between Oct. 16, 2012 to May 15
of this year.

WILKES-BARRE Not all who serve
our country wear a uniform.
When the 68th annual Wyoming Valley
Veterans Day Parade steps off at Kingston
Corners on Nov. 10, its theme will be
honoring those who have served in the
nations armed forces, as well as members
of their families who provided love and
support on the home front.
The U.S. Navy will be the host branch
for this years event.
Retired Navy Lt. Cmdr. Susan Allen, a
Dallas resident, recalled how her husband
cared for their two small children during
her deployments.
I know that when I was away, he han-
dled everything, said Allen, who retired
in 2008 and is serving as chairwoman of
this years parade committee.
Cmdr. Albert C. Seeman lives in Plains
Township, and has served as commanding
ofcer of the Navy Operational Support
Center in Avoca since May 2012. His wife
and two children, ages 6 and 8, are back in
the Washington, D.C., area, where Seeman
knows the challenges of family life can be
difcult to bear when he is not there.
His children were toddlers when
he was deployed overseas in Iraq and
Afghanistan. Now, although he may not
be as far away, the demands on both par-
ents are more intense as their children are
older and sometimes, more in need of
guidance and discipline.
It can be difcult, trying to be a father
from 260 miles away, Seeman said. Im
trying to be the dad over the phone.
Such struggles, common to military
families throughout history, are the reason
kith and kin of service personnel will be
honored at this Novembers parade.
Gathered to discuss the annual event
Wednesday, Allen, Seeman and retired
Capt. Robert Ambrose, of Mountain Top
said one of the things they appreciate
about the region is how appreciative the
community is of its veterans, whether
serving or retired.
Allen, herself a self-described Navy
brat who spent many years in Bucks
County, believes the states strong tra-
dition of military service may explain
that: she recently heard a statistic that
during World War II, one out of every
17 Americans in uniform was from
Pennsylvania.
In D.C., you cant shake a stick with-
out hitting someone in uniform, Seeman
joked. Here, if you go to the gas station in
uniform, people want to talk with you, ask
about your service.
Anyone who wants to support this years
parade may call Staff Sgt. Christopher
Keen at 288-6641, or visit the committees

WILKES-BARRE A
Luzerne County judge on
Monday reduced the bail
amount of a Wyoming man
who is accused of setting
re to his own apartment.
Judge Fred Pierantoni
reduced Kennith Searfoss
bail from $50,000 to $5,000
after a request by Searfoss
attorney, and noted that
Searfoss must reside with
his mother if 10 percent of
his bail is posted.
Searfoss, 28, was charged
in January after a neighbor
reported seeing Searfoss
in his apartment banging
something on the wall. The
woman then said she saw
Searfoss leave and noticed
black smoke before calling
911.
A re marshal deter-
mined the re was incen-
diary and started in two
separate locations inside the
apartment in the kitchen
and living room.
Searfoss allegedly told
police he started the re
because he wanted to com-
mit suicide.
Searfoss attorney made
the request to reduce her
clients bail because an
application to the countys
drug treatment court pro-
gram is currently being
considered.

Luzerne County Judge
William Amesbury sen-
tenced Amber Sutton, 28,
with a last known address
of Luzerne Avenue, West
Pittston, on charges of
endangering the welfare

mischief.
Sutton also received two
years probation. She previ-
ously pleaded guilty to the
charges.
According to court
papers, police said Robert
Hospodar and his girlfriend,
Sutton, were using bath
salts and were plunging
knives in walls, believing
there were 90 people living
inside the walls of their
apartment on Luzerne
Avenue on March 18, 2011,
according to the criminal
complaint.
A 5-year-old girl was
inside the residence at the

WILKES-BARRE A
Luzerne County judge on
Wednesday scheduled a
hearing date for next week
on a request by a city man
to be released on nominal
bail on charged he robbed a
clerk at the R/C Movies 14.
Sean Patrick Flavin, 34,
led the request through
his attorney, Thomas
Cometa, arguing Flavin
should be released on
nominal bail because it has
been more than 180 days
since he was charged and
he has not been brought to
trial yet. State law permits
the request.
Flavin is scheduled to
stand trial in September.
On Aug. 19, city police
allege Flavin was armed
with a handgun and threat-
ened Colin Henry as Henry
left the ticket ofce at the
theater.
Judge Fred Pierantoni

date for July 19.
Sewer line repairs, freworks among concerns at Luzerne meeting
B. Garret Rogan
Times Leader Correspondent
LUZERNE - Borough council
discussed sewer repairs and re-
works enforcement regulations
during Wednesday nights regu-
lar council meeting.
Three sections of municipal
sewer line were identied as
being in urgent need of repair.
Estimates for the work to be
done to storm water lines on
Bennett, Miller and Walnut
streets place costs at more than
$12,000.
While that amount is less
than the minimum $18,500 that
would prompt the work to be
bid out to contractors, it does
impose a signicant nancial
burden on the borough.
Citing that concern among
others, council and Luzerne
Borough Sewer Authority
member Bill Turcan cited his
belief that the authority should
assume maintenance responsi-
bilities for all of the boroughs
sewer lines. Turcan explained
that it is only currently respon-
sible for all of the sanitary
sewer lines and roughly half of
the storm water lines.
Turcan went on to explain that
the matter has repeatedly come
up at authority meetings but has
never been held up for a vote.
While he does intend to force a
vote on the matter at the next
meeting, he refused to speculate
on the outcome.
In other matters, a heated
exchange between residents on
what reworks are illegal within
the borough and the manner in
which police should respond to
themled to council member Kurt
Santayanas suggestions that the
boroughs reworks ordinance
be eliminated.
The boroughs current ordi-
nance prohibits essentially all
reworks, including such mun-
dane items as sparklers and caps.
Santayana stated his prefer-
ence to have borough police be
directed to enforce state law
forbidding the use of large-scale

NANTICOKE The
Greater Nanticoke Area
School Board voted unani-
mously Wednesday to restore
physical education, library ser-
vices, music and art classes in
elementary grades, to resume
an old practice of contribut-
ing $5,000 annually to the
Mill Memorial Library, and to
revise the dress code to allow
jeans and collarless shirts as
long as they are clean.
During a special meeting
the board also voted to con-
tract cafeteria services out for
the rst time in the districts
history, hiring Metz Culinary
Management, one of two
companies that handle most
cafeteria contracts in Luzerne
County school districts.
This is like a new begin-
ning for the district, board
member Tony Prushinski said
of the decision to bring back
programs cut two years ago
after the state slashed public
education funding under Gov.
Tom Corbett.
Prushinski said the educa-
tion committee, which he
chairs, had pushed for the
restorations and gured most
of the cost can be covered the
rst year at least by savings
realized when the district
brought two classes in-house
that were being handled con-
tractually by the Luzerne
Intermediate Unit. The LIU
provides a variety of services
to area districts, primarily spe-
cial education.
We saved between
$250,000 and $300,000,
Prushinski said, which should
cover 90 percent or more
of the cost of bringing back
three workers furloughed two
years ago: physical education
teacher Eric Speece, music
teacher Ellen Rutkowski, and
part-time library aide Monica
Kochanski. Any additional
cost can be covered using
money from the district fund
balance, a reserve built up over
years that currently stands at
about $7 million.
The board also voted to post
for three positions, another
physical education teacher, an
English as Second Language
teacher, and a high school
assistant principal. Prushinski
said the ESL teacher is need-
ed because a current teacher,
Michelle Kordeck, will switch
to the elementary art position
and will have to be replaced.
Superintendent Tony
Perrone said contracting Metz
wont cost the district money
because the company guar-
anteed a minimum $100,000
prot from cafeteria sales. He
also noted the workers remain
under district control.
Long-time board watchdog
Hank Marks questioned the
wisdom of restoring the pro-
grams when the district still
has $22 million in debt from
massive construction and
renovation projects done years
ago, but both Prushinski and
board President Ryan Verazin
defended the decision.
This is personal for me,
Verazin said. Im not going to
deprive kids in this district.
My fear was that we would
have a child come to kinder-
garten and they would have no
art or music until sixth or sev-
enth grade, Prushinski said.
Perrone said the board
decided to loosen the dress
code because of the high per-
centage of low-income student
enrollment. Some of these
families have jeans and cant
afford anything else, Perrone
said, stressing the clothes still
had to be neat and clean.

Local connection to
Hotshots ceremony
A former Dupont man participated
in the honor guard for one of the

Len Lojewski said his son, Eric, 37,
a San Bernardino County forest re-
ghter, drove a vehicle in the proces-
sion Wednesday carrying Christopher
MacKenzie to Hemet, Calif., where he
grew up. Lojewski said his son sent a

College tuition costs
going up once again
Tuition is going up this fall at the
states 14 public universities.
Ofcials said it will cost $194 more
per year to attend schools in the
Pennsylvania State System of Higher
Education. Thats up 3 percent from
last year.
The annual cost of tuition for in-
state residents now totals $6,622.
Rates are also going up for non-resi-
dent and graduate students.
About 115,000 students attend the
schools, and about 90 percent are from
Pennsylvania. The system is receiving
nearly $413 million in state aid, the
same amount as last year. Ofcials say
that covers about one-quarter of the
institutions operating costs.
HARRISBURG
New state law funds
anti-gang crime unit
A bipartisan group of senators high-
lighted the inclusion of $2.5 million
in the state budget to create a new
Mobile Street Crimes
Unit in the Attorney
Generals Ofce to
ght gang activity
across Pennsylvania.
The ve senators
Majority Leader
Dominic Pileggi, and
Sens. John Rafferty,
Ted Erickson, Lisa
Baker, R-Lehman Township, and John
Yudichak, D-Plymouth Township
collaborated to pass legislation, now
Act 200 of 2012, making it a crime
to recruit criminal gang members
and toughening sentences for various
crimes committed by street gangs.
Act 200 added Pennsylvania to a list
of more than two dozen states which
have anti-gang recruitment laws. The
senators said funding the new Mobile
Street Crimes Unit is part of an ongo-
ing effort to crack down on gang activ-
ity in Pennsylvania.
Our job as state legislators is to
make sure that law enforcement has
the tools and resources needed to ght
the scourge of gang activity across the
commonwealth, Baker said. Gangs
are often on the move, so the Mobile
Street Crimes Unit allows them to
strike back wherever the need arises,
providing an indispensable weapon for
protecting our communities.

Private hearing for
murder suspects
Attorneys for two half-brothers
charged in the shooting deaths of
three people in Plymouth last summer
appeared in Luzerne County Court
Wednesday for a private hearing with a
judge regarding expert fees and associ-
ated costs in their clients case.
Attorneys for Sawud Davis, 16,

era hearing a private hearing held
with defense attorneys and a judge
to discuss the costs.
According to prosecutors, Davis
was in a Plymouth apartment dur-
ing an alleged drug transaction and
pulled out a .40-caliber pistol. He red
multiple rounds, said prosecutors, kill-
ing Bradley Swartwood, 21, Nicholas
Maldonado, 17, both of Plymouth, and
Lisa Abaunza, 15, of Duryea, and injur-
ing 19-year-old Daniel Maldonado.
At a preliminary hearing in October,
Hamilton said he was the lone gun-
man, not his half-brother. Both
Hamilton and Davis are formerly of

WILKES-BARRE Crime is not solely a city
problem.
If anyone at Wednesdays Luzerne County Crime
Watch Coalition meeting needed such a reminder,
members of Sweet Valleys neighborhood watch
organization, formed in October, gave testament
to the fact.
We saw an increase in vagrancy, said Mickey
Donaghey, a resident of the rural community
who joined about 50 people from across Luzerne
County at the county Emergency Management
building to discuss grassroots anti-crime efforts.
We saw a lot of juveniles on the streets with no
adult supervision, vandalism, quads on the high-
ways, added fellow member Tom Becker.
Were trying to protect our little slice of heav-
en, Donaghey added.
The good news? Donaghey and Becker said they
believe the groups efforts have borne fruit in the
form of less crime and improved presence by state
police who patrol their area.
The bad news? They and other civic-minded par-
ticipants know they will have to maintain constant
vigilance and to have faith that their efforts
make a difference.
We dont know what we prevent. We have no
idea, said Charlotte Raup of the Wilkes-Barre
Crime Watch Coalition, who led the gathering.
We cant measure crime-prevention. Is it work-
ing? I hope so.
That hope attracted representatives from about
15 different neighborhood watch groups, from
Hazleton to Avoca, to the meeting for a refresher
from Raup and Luzerne County District Attorneys
Ofce Detective Charles Chaz Balogh on best
practices for crime watch activities.
Everyone here knows your neighborhood better
than your local police, Balogh said. Every cop in
Luzerne County would agree with me, too you
guys know when something is out of place.
Among Baloghs instructions: Be observant.
Take notes and photos. Always travel in pairs when
on crime watch patrol, as per local crime watch by-
laws. Stay in public view. Call the police.
But as Balogh and Raup also took pains to point
out, crime watch volunteers are not police, and
should never act like them dont carry weapons,
dont attempt to apprehend suspects and dont
interfere with police when they are interviewing
or arresting suspects.
Were not vigilantes. Were just the eyes and
ears of the police. Thats it, Raup said.
Balogh and Raup also gave participants advice
on common sense steps everyone can take to avoid
becoming victims, from locking their cars and not
leaving valuables in plain sight to how best they
should secure the doors and windows on their
homes.
More than this, they also advised residents how
to engage more volunteers in the cause, including
elderly residents who may not be willing or able to
participate in street patrols.
Balogh recommended creating iers with infor-
mation about watch groups, as well as knocking on
doors and talking to neighbors in person.
The elderly are a huge asset, he said. Even
though they may not go out on patrols, those
people become window watchers, they see every-
thing.
How to spot meth labs, meanwhile, was a con-
cern shared by many on Wednesday. It is to be the
topic of a Sweet Valley community picnic on June
27 at the North Lake pavilion, as well as at the next
Luzerne County Crime Watch Coalition meeting
on Oct. 9.
Raup also encouraged members to foster such
discussions at their own gatherings.
Youve got to be able to do these topics your-
self, she said, offering to provide information on
everything from meth labs to sexual abuse and
nancial crimes against the elderly.

Red Cross issues call for blood donors
With more families on vaca-
tion, the July 4th holiday and
college students back home, the
summer months traditionally
are difcult for the American
Red Cross to maintain blood
supplies. But this year seems
even more lean.
Inlight of thelowergures, the
American Red Cross issued an
emergency request Wednesday
for platelet and blood donors of
all blood types to roll up a sleeve
and give because many fewer
donations than expected were
received in June and the rst
week of July.
We are counting on gen-
erous volunteer blood and
platelet donors to step up and
give now, said Maria Elena
Geyer, chief executive ofcer
for the Red Cross Northeastern
Pennsylvania Blood Services
Region. Every two seconds
someone in the U.S. needs
blood. Each day donations come
up short, less blood is available
for these patients in need.
Nationwide, donations
through the Red Cross were
down approximately 10 per-
cent in June, resulting in about
50,000 fewer donations than
expected. The shortfall is similar
to what the Red Cross experi-
enced in June 2012.
June can be among the most
challenging months of the year
for blood and platelet donations
as regular donors delay giving
while they adjust to summer
schedules. High school and col-
lege blood drives account for
as much as 20 percent of Red
Cross donations during the
school year. Donations from
those who usually give at these
drives drop by more than 80
percent when school is out
for the summer. In addition, a
mid-week Independence Day
holiday reduced the number of
blood drives scheduled in early
July. Many sponsors, especially
businesses, were unable to host
drives because employees took
extended vacations.
The Red Cross urgently needs
donations to ensure an adequate
blood supply is available for
patients all summer long. Each
day, the American Red Cross
Northeastern Pennsylvania
Blood Services Region needs
approximately 450 donors to
step forward and give blood.
Eligible donors with types O
negative, B negative and Anega-
tive blood are especially encour-
aged to give. Type O negative
is the universal blood type and
can be transfused to anyone who
needs blood. Types A negative
and B negative can be trans-
fused to Rh positive or negative
patients.
There is also an urgent need
for platelet donations. Platelets
a key clotting component of
blood often needed by cancer
patients - must be transfused
within ve days of donation, so
its important to have a steady
supply of platelets on hand.

Victims of the attack were in the courtroomas
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev entered his plea.
Denise Lavoie
AP Legal Afairs Writer
BOSTON His arm in a cast and his face swol-
len, a blase-looking Dzhokhar Tsarnaev pleaded
not guilty Wednesday in the Boston Marathon
bombing in a seven-minute proceeding that marked
his rst public appearance since his capture in mid-
April.
As victims of the bombing looked on, Tsarnaev,
19, gave a lopsided smile to his sisters upon arriv-
ing in the courtroom. He appeared to have a jaw
injury and there was swelling around his left eye
and cheek.
Then, after he leaned over toward a microphone
and said, Not guilty over and over in a Russian
accent, he was led out of the courtroom, making a
kissing motion with his lips toward his family as he
left. His sister sobbed loudly, resting her head on a
woman seated next to her.
He faces 30 federal charges, including using a
weapon of mass destruction to kill, and could get
the death penalty if prosecutors choose to pursue
it.
The proceedings took place in a heavily guarded
courtroom packed not only with victims but with
their families, police ofcers, members of the pub-
lic and the media.
Tsarnaev looked much as he did in a photo
widely circulated after his arrest, his hair curly and
unkempt. He appeared nonchalant, almost bored
during the hearing. The cast covered his left fore-
arm, his hand and his ngers. The April 15 attack
killed three people and wounded more than 260.
Authorities say Tsarnaev orchestrated the attack
along with his older brother, Tamerlan Tsarnaev,
who died following a shootout with police three
days after the bombing.
Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was arrested on April 19
when he was found hiding in a boat in a suburban
backyard. He was initially charged in the hospital,
where he was recovering from wounds suffered in
a police shootout.
Tsarnaevs two sisters, both in Muslim garb,
were in court Wednesday. One was carrying a baby,
the other wiped away tears with a tissue. His par-
ents remained back in Russia. Reporters and spec-
tators began lining up for seats in the courtroom
at 7:30 a.m. as a dozen Federal Protective Service
ofcers and bomb-snifng dogs surrounded the
courthouse.
Four hours before the hearing, the defendant
arrived at the courthouse in a four-vehicle motor-
cade that included a van, a Humvee and a state
police car. A group of about a dozen Tsarnaev sup-
porters cheered as the motorcade arrived. The dem-
onstrators yelled, Justice for Jahar! as Tsarnaev
is known. One woman held a sign that said, Free
Jahar. Lacey Buckley, 23, said she traveled fromher
home in Wenatchee, Wash., to attend the arraign-
ment. Buckley said she has never met Tsarnaev but
came because she believes hes innocent.
I just think so many of his rights were violated.
They almost murdered an unarmed kid in a boat,
she said.

Amid criticism, Rail World Inc. president
arrives in devastated Quebec town.

LAC-MEGANTIC, QuEBEC
The head of a railway company
whose train crashed into a Quebec
town, killing at least 15 people,
blamed the accident on an employee
who he said had failed to properly
set the brakes.
Edward Burkhardt, president
and CEO of the railways parent
company, Rail World Inc., made his
comments Wednesday during his
rst visit to the town where some
60 people remain missing following
Saturdays ery crash. He arrived
with a police escort and was heckled
by angry residents,
He said a train engineer has been
suspended without pay.
I think he did something wrong
We think he applied some hand
brakes but the question is did he
apply enough of them, Burkhardt
explained. He said he applied 11
hand brakes, we think thats not true.
Initially we believed him but now we
dont.
Burkhardt said that he had stayed
in Chicago to deal with the crisis in
his ofce, where he was better able
to communicate with insurers and
ofcials in different places during
what he described as 20-hour work
days.
The railway boss promised an
energetic response to the humanitar-
ian crisis.
At a press conference, shortly
before Burkhardt was due to arrive
in Lac-Megantic, Quebec Premier
Pauline Marois faulted the com-
panys response in the wake of the
disaster.
We have realized there are seri-
ous gaps from the railway company
from not having been there and not
communicating with the public,
Marois said.
She also announced a $60-million
fund to help victims in Lac-Megantic
and to rebuild the town.
Quebec police inspector Michel
Forget said they were pursuing a
wide-ranging criminal investigation
but had ruled out terrorism as a cause.
Forget said an array of other pos-
sibilities remain under investigation,
including criminal negligence. Other
ofcials have raised the possibility
that the train was tampered with
before the crash early Saturday.
The heart of the towns central
business district is being treated as a
crime scene and remained cordoned
off by police tape not only the 30
buildings razed by the re but also
many adjacent blocks.
On downtowns main street Rue
de Laval police positioned a truck
near the perimeter of the no-go zone,
which prevented news crews from
getting direct photo and video views
of the search operations being con-
ducted by some 200 ofcers.
Police ofcials left no doubt that
the hunt for the missing people was
taxing they said two ofcers were
withdrawn from the sector because
of worries about their physical con-
dition.

Railway train broke loose early
Saturday and hurtled downhill

miles before jumping the tracks at 63

SOuTH SAN
FRANCISCO, CALIF.
As Flight 214 descended
over San Francisco Bay, both
Asiana Airlines pilots were in
new roles.
In the left seat of the cock-
pit sat a pilot with just 35
hours of experience ying a
Boeing 777 who was landing
the big jet for his rst time at
San Francisco International
Airport. At his right was a
trainer making his rst trip
as an instructor pilot.
While the two men had
years of aviation experience,
this mission involved unfa-
miliar duties, and it was the
rst time they had own
together. The ight came
to a catastrophic end when
the airliner crash-landed
Saturday, killing two passen-
gers and injuring many oth-
ers.
Experts say investigators
trying to piece together what
went wrong will be consider-
ing the pairing of the pilots,
who were assigned to work
together through a tightly
regulated system developed
after several deadly crashes
in the 1980s were blamed in
part on inexperience in the
cockpit.
The National
Transportation Safety Board
is denitely going to focus
on what type of policy Asiana
had in terms of crew pair-
ing, former NTSB Chairman
James Hall said.
Pilots are typically paired
by management, and are not
allowed to choose their own
ights nor who they are part-
nered with.
Massachusetts Institute of
Technology aeronautics pro-
fessor Mary Cummings said
its common for two commer-
cial pilots to be assigned to
the same ight without ever
working together before.
Airlines have standardized,
formal procedures to facili-
tate teams of strangers.
The military tries to have
crews work together more
permanently, she said.
Research would tell you
that crew pairing with the
same people over longer peri-
ods of time is safer, she said.
When two people y togeth-
er all the time, you get into a
routine thats more efcient.
You have experience commu-
nicating.
Details emerging frompilot
interviews, cockpit recorders
and control-tower communi-
cations indicate that pilot Lee
Gang-kuk, 46, who was half-
way through his certication
training for the Boeing 777,
and his co-pilot and instruc-
tor Lee Jeong-Min, thought
the airliners speed was being
controlled by an autothrottle,
which was set for 157 mph.
Inspectors found that
the autothrottle had been
armed, or made ready for
activation, said NTSB chair-
man Deborah Hersman.
But investigators are
still determining wheth-
er it had been engaged.

Corbett defends
gas royalty bill
Gov. Tom Corbett is defending legisla-
tion that an oil and gas royalty owners
group said undermines some landown-
ers negotiating rights when dealing with
Marcellus Shale drilling companies.
Corbett signed the bill without public
comment Tuesday after it won over-
whelming support from the Republican-
controlled Legislature in June. In a letter
to lawmakers, Corbett said he believes the
new law enhances the efciency of drill-
ing for oil and gas while limiting environ-
mental damage and protecting the rights
of landowners and leaseholders.
The law is designed to advance the
Marcellus Shale industrys ability to
vacuum up natural gas through the recent
advent of underground, horizontally
drilled bores that can extend out thou-
sands of feet from the vertical well bore,
sometimes even crossing property lines.

sarin gas claims
Syrias main Western-backed opposition

accusations that rebels made sarin nerve

attack outside Aleppo in March.
The Syrian National Coalition called
the charges desperate and fabricated.
Russia is a key ally of President Bashar
Assads regime.
use of chemical weapons is an explo-
sive issue, potentially guiding whether
the West increases its aid to rebel forces.
President Barack Obama called chemical
weapons use by the Assad government a
red line, while such accusations against
the rebels could reinforce Western misgiv-
ings about arming them.
LAKELAND, FLA.
Sex scandal rocks
police department
Nearly a dozen police ofcers in
Lakeland are under investigation after
state and local ofcials uncovered a wide-
spread sex scandal that has unfolded over
eight years.
According to ofcials, the investigation
centers on Sue Eberle, a Lakeland Police
crime analyst who says she had consen-
sual and sometimes coerced sex with
police ofcers and one reghter and
was propositioned by a municipal worker.
Eberles accounts of the liaisons were
largely corroborated by her sexual part-
ners and others within the police depart-
ment, and published in a 59-page report
from the countys top prosecutor.
The state attorney says he cant pros-
ecute the cases because of a lack of physi-
cal evidence and because of how much
time has passed since some of the encoun-
ters. However, Lakelands mayor says the
ofcers and employees involved are under
an internal investigation.

CAIRO Authorities
escalated their crackdown
Wednesday on the Muslim
Brotherhood, ordering the
arrest of its top leader for
inciting violence this week in
which more than 50 people
were killed in clashes with
security forces.
One week after the mili-
tary overthrew President
Mohammed Morsi and began
moving against his Muslim
Brotherhood movement,
prosecutors issued a warrant
for the arrest of the groups
supreme leader, Mohammed
Badie, as well as nine other
leading Islamists.
According to a statement
from the prosecutor generals
ofce, they are suspected of
instigating Mondays violence
outside a Republican Guard
building that grew into the
worst bloodshed since Morsi
was toppled.
Members of the
Brotherhood and other
Islamists have denounced
Morsis ouster and have
refused offers by the military-
backed interim leadership
to join any transition plan
for a new government. They
demand nothing less than
Morsis release from deten-
tion and his reinstatement as
president.
The warrants highlight
the armed forces zero-
tolerance policy toward the
Brotherhood, which was
banned under authoritarian
leader Hosni Mubarak. The
military already has jailed ve
Brotherhood leaders, includ-
ing Badies powerful deputy,
Khairat el-Shaiter, and shut
down its media outlets.
This just signals that dicta-
torship is back, said Muslim
Brotherhood spokesman
Ahmed Aref.
We are returning to what is
worse than Mubaraks regime,
which wouldnt dare to issue
an arrest warrant of the gen-
eral leader of the Muslim
Brotherhood.
Foreign Ministry spokeman
Badr Abdel-Atti gave the rst
ofcial word on Morsi in days,
saying the ousted leader is in a
safe place and is being treated
in a very dignied manner.
No charges have been leveled
against him, Abdel-Atti said.
For his own safety and
for the safety of the country,
it is better to keep him.
Otherwise, consequences will
be dire, he added.
Thousands of Muslim
Brotherhood supporters are
continuing a sit-in at the
Rabaah al-Adawiya Mosque
near the Republican Guard
building that was the site of
Mondays clashes that killed
54 people, most of them
Morsi supporters.
The Islamists have accused
the troops of gunning down
protesters, while the military
blamed armed backers of
Morsi for provoking its forces.
News of the arrest warrants
did not surprise the protest-
ers, who saw the move as
an attempt to pressure the
groups leadership to end the
demonstration.
We expected it, said
Ayman el-Ashmawi. Even if
they arrest the biggest num-
ber of Muslim Brotherhood
members, we want to say that
the Muslim Brotherhood will
leave this square only over our
dead bodies or the return
of Dr. Mohammed Morsi.

vided advertising, marketing
and business strategy ser-
vices to Cefalo and his busi-
nesses.
The services included
Internet advertisement,
website creation and man-
agement, website banner ad
placement, graphic designs,
marketing plans, search
engine accessibility and oth-
ers, according to the suit.
The suit says a total of
$39,042 is owed, which
includes interest and late
fees, and that Cefalo has not
offered or asserted any objec-
tions to the amounts billed.
The suit says Cefalo con-
tinues to receive nancial
benet from the services
Genesis provided, and is cur-
rently still using a logo on
the Planet Miata website.
Onecount of unjust enrich-
ment is alleged in the suit,
and requests that a judgment
be made in Lipperinis favor
for the amount owed, as well
as attorneys fees, costs and
interest.
Cefalo did not return a
message seeking comment
Wednesday, but a letter
he wrote to Lipperini was
included as an exhibit in the
lawsuit where he explains
his businesses have seen a
need to change marketing
direction.
The undated letter from
Cefalo to Lipperini says that
the letter is a formal noti-
cation that Planet Miata is
terminating all services and
association with Lipperini
and his business, and that
Planet Miata was instructing
Lipperini to cease providing
any future services with the
business.
The letter requests that
all websites be registered to
Cefalo by April 22, 2009, and
that once proof of the switch
is received arrangements
will be made with regard to
payment of the outstanding
involves for the months of
Jan., Feb., and March and up
to April 15, 2009.
Cefalo wrote that he felt
his business was being held
back as a result of Genesis
marketing strategies and
that Cefalo has spent thou-
sands of dollars for services
and received little value
over a six-month period.
You have been increasing-
ly difcult to get a hold of,
Cefalo wrote. You have also
allowed monthly invoices to
accumulate without forward-
ing them to us in a timely
manner despite repeated
requests for you to do so.

Mazda parts dealer sued over failure to pay $40,000
Sheena Delazio
sdelazio@timesleader.com
Ciavarella appeal seeks rehearing on judge recusal, statute of limitations
Ex-Luzerne County Judge
Mark Ciavarellas attorneys
want a federal court to dis-
miss his conviction on three
counts and reconsider his
contention that the trial
judge should have recused
himself.
Ciavarellas attorneys,
William Ruzzo and Al Flora
Jr., led a brief Tuesday
arguing the Third Circuit
Court of Appeals had erred
in upholding all but one of
12 convictions received by a
jury following a trial before
U.S. District Judge Edwin
Kosik in February 2011.
Ruzzo and Flora argue the
appeals court should rehear
the case because it did not
apply the proper legal tests
in deciding whether Kosik
should have recused him-
self. In the 2011 trial, Flora
had explicitly asked Kosik
to recuse himself following
several testy exchanges that
Flora contended showed a
bias.
In the initial appeal follow-
ing Ciavarellas conviction,
that argument was made
again, citingcomments Kosik
made in personal responses
to letters from citizens.
The appeals court con-
ceded Kosick shouldnt have
made the comments he did
in the letters, but said that
did not rise to the level set
by the U.S. Supreme Court
requiring recusal. In the brief
led Tuesday, Ruzzo and
Flora argue that the appeals
court cited the wrong cases
in making that determina-
tion, and that rulings in other
cases which dealt directly
with comments made out-
side the court proceedings
should be used in deter-
mining whether recusal was
required.
The brief also argues the
appeals court erred by not
addressing Ciavarellas con-
tention the jury should have
been advised of the statute
of limitations for three of the
charges. Ruzzo and Flora
admit they did not request
such an instruction be given,
but contend that failure was
plain error that could be
corrected by the appeals
court by reversing the convic-
tion on the three counts.
Ciavarella was convicted
on 12 of 27 counts and sen-
tenced to 28 years in what
has widely been called the
Kids for Cash scandal, a
label he repeatedly and vehe-
mently rejected, insisting
he never incarcerated chil-
dren in exchange for money.
Ciavarella and former Judge
Michael Conahan, who
worked out a plea deal and is
serving a sentence of 17-1/2
years, received millions of
dollars from the owner and
the developer of private,
for-prot juvenile deten-
tion and treatment centers.

ble. They did everything
together, including travel,
hunting and shing.

WILKES-BARRE A
heroin sale occurred in a car
while it was being driven
from Lee Park Avenue and
Division Street in Hanover
Township to a parking lot
on Hanover Street in Wilkes-
Barre, according to charges
led.
State police troopers with
the Vice and Narcotics Unit
arrested six people after the
alleged heroin exchange took
place Tuesday afternoon.
Some of those arrested
have previously been arrest-
ed on prior drug offenses in
Luzerne County.
Nelson Soto, Lamar
Thomas Brown, Khalif
Mitchell, John E. Simpson,
Teara PerryandAdamJames
Apitiliasimov were arraigned
on drug related charges by
District Judge Diana Malast
in Plains Township, and all
were jailed at the Luzerne
County Correctional Facility
for lack of $25,000 bail each.
TUNKHANNOCK
A former treasurer of the
Noxen Fire Volunteer Fire
Department accused of
stealing $34,183 in funds
acknowledged she had a
gambling problemwhen con-
fronted by the chief about
the missing money, arrest
papers said.
Robin Ann Gorton-
Parrish, 42, of Luzerne
waived her preliminary hear-
ing Wednesday, sending
charges of theft and forgery
to Wyoming County Court.
District Judge Carl Smith
allowed her to remain free on
$50,000 unsecured bail.
Arrest papers led by
Pennsylvania State Trooper
Edward Urban said Gorton-
Parrish used a department-
issued automatic teller
machine card to unlawfully
withdraw $17,651 in funds
and wrote out $16,532 in
checks to cash and herself,
including two on which she
forged the department presi-
dents name.
The alleged thefts came
to light on June 14 while the
departments annual carnival
was under way.
According to the afdavit
of probable cause to sup-
port the arrest and ling of
charges: On June 13 depart-
ment Chief Lewis Hackling
attempted to cash a check
worth $1,140 issued to him
from the department as
reimbursement for materi-
als he bought for the depart-
ment. However, instead
there being a balance of
approximately $20,000 in
the account, Hackling was
informed that there were
insufcient funds to cash the
check.
When Hackling later sent
a text message to Gorton-
Parrish about the depart-
ments checkbook and what
other checks were going to
bounce, she sent a text mes-
sage saying she was sorry
for what she did and asked
if she could repay the money.
Hackling said Gorton-
Parrish mentioned she had
a gambling problem and that
she needed to seek help for
issues, including gambling.
Hacklingmet withGorton-
Parrish and her ex-boyfriend
and member of the depart-
ment Matthew McCormack
at the Wyoming Valley Mall
where she handed over the
checkbook and an empty
cash box.
A review by the depart-
ment determined she wrote
out 11 checks and made
15 cash withdrawals from
ATMs in Wilkes-Barre.
Between April 11 and June
13 Gorton-Parrish made a
minimal deposit or none at
all of money from depart-
ment fundraisers.
None of the $2,100 raised
from the breakfast was
deposited. Only $990 of
the $5,322 from the pow-
wow was deposited and
$5,249 was missing from
the cash box for the carnival.
Gorton-Parrish who held
the elected treasurer posi-
tion for approximately 2 1/2
years, was the custodian of
the cash box and start-up
funds for the carnival. She
was responsible for issuing
the stand cash boxes and
taking custody of them and
their contents at the end of
the night.

We would expect no less from
Americas modern and growing wel-
fare state:
The U.S. Department of Health
and Human Services says it will not
attempt to verify individual eligibil-
ity for Obamacare insurance subsi-
dies.
It instead will rely on self-report-
ing, with minimal efforts to verify
the accuracy of the information, The
Wall Street Journal reports.
The administration says that since
it delayed the employer mandate
until 2015 an illegal act, we con-
tend, given it violates the law passed
by Congress it cant expect indi-
viduals to provide documentation
that their employers dont offer
health insurance and, thus, they will
be eligible for taxpayer-subsidized
plans.
Allow us to translate: Government-
subsidized health insurance will be
available to all, with no checks or
balances, and likely forever, despite
promises of, someday, a robust
verication process.
After all, theres likely no way the
government will be able to corral all
of these horses stampeding out of
the barn.
Nod-nod, wink-wink. Hey, whats a
little (or a lot of) fraud, eh?
If you had any doubt that
Obamacare is anything other than
the latest in a long line of entitle-
ment programs, none should remain.
The Journal calculates that costs
associated with the loosey-goosey
verication standard could explode
by as much as a quarter of a trillion
dollars in the rst 10 years.
Obamacare must be taken out. For
surely, it will take out America.
The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review
Paycard fees hurt
low-paid workers
oThEr oPiNioN: WAgES
You must spend money to make
money. That axiom may be true, but
it doesnt follow that you must spend
money to get the money you already
made.
Yet thats what is happening as
an increasing number of employers
change their payroll systems to issue
prepaid cards theyre like debit
cards instead of traditional pay-
checks or direct deposits to workers
bank accounts.
The argument in favor of the
paycards is obvious for employers;
theyre cheaper to issue.
Theres an argument that the cards
are advantageous for workers, too;
funds become available on payday
without the delay of waiting for and
cashing a check.
But there is a big drawback with
the cards, one that hits Americas
lowest-paid workers the hardest at
some of the nations largest employ-
ers, including Wal-Mart.
Most of the cards charge the cus-
tomers the workers a fee to get
their money from an ATM. Thats not
right.
A charge of $1.50 per withdrawal,
for example, may not seem like a
lot, but those fees can add up, espe-
cially if there are other costs such as
monthly charges for statements, card
replacement, inactivity or using a
bank other than the one that issued
the card.
An employee at a McDonalds in
Milwaukee told The New York Times
that he spends $40 to $50 a month on
fees associated with his pay, and he
earns only $7.25 an hour.
Thats a sizable chunk of his income.
While proponents of the cards argue
that they still are cheaper than using
check-cashing services, which typi-
cally charge at least a 3 percent fee,
his experience refutes that.
Government agencies also are
starting to introduce the plastic pay-
ment method.
For example, Allegheny County
is planning to use the cards to issue
payments to foster parents.
Thats the wrong way to go. State
and local governments should be try-
ing to protect workers and consum-
ers from exploitation, not using the
service just because they can save a
few bucks on payroll processing.
When it comes to employee com-
pensation, the paycards might even
be illegal in Pennsylvania.
According to the state Department
of Labor and Industry, depending
on the details of each card program,
fees may constitute invalid deduc-
tions from employee wages, which
are prohibited under the states Wage
Payment and Collection Law. New
Yorks attorney general has started
an inquiry into the practice.
Theres nothing wrong with paying
employees with debit cards, as long
as there are no charges associated
with using them. Workers are enti-
tled to receive full payment of their
wages.
With the use of paycards grow-
ing, regulations are needed to pro-
tect consumers and prevent gouging
workers who are just trying to collect
what theyre owed for their labors.

A letter to
lawmakers: Shut
down station
This is a letter recently sent to
state Sen. Lisa Baker and State Rep.
Karen Boback:
From the time of PVR Partners
Chapin Dehydration Stations zon-
ing hearing in March of 2011, when
the Monroe Township zoning board
approved the permits because they
thought Gov. Tom Corbetts Act
13 would prevent them from not
approving the permit, to todays
third accidental blow off in nine
months, leaving the residents with
a terrible taste in their mouths and
dizziness, this gas processing facility
has been one big mistake.
After 9 months, PVR Partners,
the owners of the facility, still hasnt
given the residents a safety plan.
From my understanding, one was
supposed to be in place before the
station went on line.
From Tom Corbett on down,
nobody had the common sense to
see that such an industrial facility
has no business existing next to
where people live, children play, and
animals graze.
As a citizen of Pennsylvania, I
demand that you, Sen. Lisa Baker
and State Rep. Karen Boback do
whatever it takes to shut down the
Chapin Dehydration Station perma-
nently, so that the residents can go
back to living a peaceful life in the
country, free from worry that the sta-
tion will blow up, or that they will
suffer serious health problems from
breathing the harmful emissions.
This was built in a residential area
on your watch. Our legislators are
supposed to work for us, and it is
up to us to demand that they do, or
they will no longer be able to hold
such an ofce of public trust.
Twenty or more families are look-
ing to you to protect them from one
Green Monster as they call it, on
Route 309 on the Luzerne County
border. It shouldnt be hard to see
what is the right thing to do.

Rethink dress
code for GNA
students
I am writing in regard to the pos-
sible change in Nanticoke Areas
school dress code.
I do feel it is wise to rethink the
dress code. Uniforms do help to curb
the incidence of children being teased
because of how they are dressed how-
ever not every child has been able to
wear a uniform because many parents
in Nanticoke nd it difcult to buy
uniforms for their children.
If the code were changed to ban
hoodies, short skirts or shorts and
boys underwear from being displayed
because of their drooping pants that
would most likely appease everyone.
The other issue I see with a
change in dress code is it needs
to be decided and shared with the
public well in advance of the start of
the school year. Sometimes parents
buy clothes a little at a time or when
there is a sale.
Hop to it decision-makers; get
the ball rolling on this and make it
known in a timely fashion!

Discontinue
prayer at public
meetings
On June 13, 2013, I addressed
Wilkes-Barre City Council objecting
to government-led prayer and urging
council to remove prayer from gov-
ernment meetings. I detailed why I
object to governmental prayer in a
follow-up written piece now avail-
able on justinvacula.com, was since
featured in local media and was most
recently backed by the Freedom
From Religion Foundation (FFRF)
who joined me in my dispute with
Wilkes-Barre City Council.
FFRFs three-page letter argues
that government prayers are exclu-
sionary, unnecessary, inappropriate
and divisive while noting that council
members may pray on their own time
rather than during public meetings
in which they lend power and pres-
tige to religion in a governmental
endorsement which excludes 19% of
a nonreligious American population.
FFRF also states that [t]he state
of the law regarding the constitu-
tionality of government-sponsored
prayers is unstable, afrms the
secular character and founding of
the United States, and notes Jesus
exaltation during his Sermon on
the Mount address do not be like
the hypocrites, for they love to pray
standing in synagogues and on the
street corners to be seen by others.
when you pray, go into your room,
close the door and pray to your father
who is unseen (Matthew 6:5-6).
The letters nal paragraph reads,
The solution is simple: discontinue
ofcial, government prayers at your
meetings. We urge you to concen-
trate on civil matters and leave
religion to the private conscience
of each individual. If government
meetings must show reverence, let
it be for our secular and godless
Constitution, which enshrines the
greatest American invention the
separation of state and church.
I will once again address council
in its next open meeting including
public comment on July 11, 2013.
I hope to see local residents at this
meeting and encourage them, like
me, to prepare ve-minute remarks
addressing council whether they
deantly continue prayer or remove
it from the sessions.

Hypnotherapist
wants to help
smokers quit
I am a certied hypnotherapist and
practice at the Holistic Health Center
in Tunkhannock. I am writing you to
inform people that hypnosis is a prov-
en effective method to quit smoking.
There are many people out there
who feel trapped, or feel that they
will never be able to kick the habit. I
want to give those people some hope.
There is a method to quit and its
been around for hundreds of years.
Anyone can be hypnotized. In fact
we are hypnotized every day without
even knowing it. Just take a look at
those TV commercials. They are the
modern form of hypnosis. For those
of you who are scared of hypnosis,
I just want to let you know that all
hypnosis is self-hypnosis. I dont
control your mind .n fact you are in
control all the time. I cannot make
you do anything you dont want to
do. Thank you and I hope I can help
some people who think that there is
no way out of the habit.

Aprimer onhow
bodys bloodpumps
It recently occurred to me that the
amount of oxygen that is left in the
blood decreases as it travels from the
point where the blood is oxygenated
(in the lungs) to more distant parts of
the body. The farther away a part of the
body is from the more highly oxygen-
ated blood supply the less oxygen will
be available for this part of the body.
Those tissues that are closer to
the heart where the highly oxygenat-
ed blood is pumped to the rest of the
body would have an easier time to
get a full supply of oxygenated blood
to meet its needs. And those tissues
farther from this oxygenated blood
supply would have a harder time to
get its full share of this oxygenated
blood. This would also be true for
the brain and its circulatory system.
It is also well known that when a
person exercises, blood is diverted
from different parts of the body to
the muscles involved in the exercise.
This would also have a bearing
on the amount of oxygen that a tis-
sue normally recieves. And all of
this could have an effect on how an
organ or body tissue works.

West Pittston police assisted in the raid
and kept Liberty Street closed for most of
the day.
A Dodge Ram truck parked in front of
the house was searched.
According to the indictment,
Morgans and Policare conspired to dis-
tribute 7,000 grams or more of a mix-
ture or substance known as bath salts
since December 2011. The indictment
also seeks the forfeiture of the property,
a bank account in the name of Morgans,
a 2005 Chevrolet Colorado pickup
truck, and $700,000.
The indictment does not say the source
of the money or howMorgans and Policare
obtained the substance.
Morgans and Policare appeared
before U.S. Magistrate Judge Malachy
E. Mannion in Scranton late Wednesday
morning. They are being held pending a
detention hearing at a later date.
In October 2011, the U.S. Drug
Enforcement Administration issued
an order designating certain synthetic
substances illegal under the Controlled
Substance Act.
Nothing could be worse than bath
salts, Biscotto said. All drugs are bad

until the city re-inspects
it, Wilkes-Barre Municipal
Affairs Manager Drew
McLaughlin said.
Court records say
Ovalles is facing felony
charges for the near
fatal shooting of Michael
Kubiak on Jan. 9. Kubiak
was shot several times in
the face, leg and chest
while he was driving
Ovalles with intentions to
buy heroin, according to
arrest records.
Kubiak drove himself
to Wilkes-Barre General
Hospital where he was
found stumbling in the
parking lot.
In the latest case, an
unnamed witness told
police he was attending
a party at the house and
was talking to another
man in front when Kemp
showed up and soon
thereafter, Ovalles.
As Ovalles and Kemp
were arguing, a large
group of people walked
from the back yard to the
front. One person from
the group yelled, East
side as Ovalles respond-
ed, West side and
allegedly discharged two
rounds from a handgun
in the air, the complaint
says.
The unnamed witness
ran to the back and heard
more gunre. He identi-
ed Ovalles by his street
name, Jay Crim.
A second unnamed wit-
ness told police he was at
the party when Ovalles
arrived at about 12:30
a.m.. A large group of
people including Kemp
gathered in front. Ovalles
was overheard saying, I
have a problem with this
guy, referring to Kemp,
and I am going to get
my gun, according to the
complaint.
The second witness
entered the house and
heard two gunshots. He
went back outside, seeing
Ovalles holding a gun and
Kemp throwing a beer
bottle at Ovalles.
Police allege in the
complaint the second
witness saw Ovalles re
more rounds at Kemp
who was running toward
the backyard and Ovalles
driving away in a Honda
Civic.
Police were called to
the house on a report of
a large ght with shots
red and found Kemp
lying in the backyard.
Kemp was transported
to Geisinger Wyoming
Valley Medical Center,
where he was pronounced
dead at 2:05 a.m. Sunday,
about 45 minutes after he
was shot.
The complaint says
Kemp was shot in the
lower back and buttocks
area, indicating he was
running away from the
gunman.
District Judge Martin
Kane signed the arrest
warrant for Ovalles, who
has not been captured.
Police consider Ovalles
to be armed and danger-
ous. He is described by
police as a Hispanic male,
6 feet 2 inches tall, about
190 pounds, black hair
and brown eyes. Anyone
with information about
Ovalles whereabouts is
asked to call 911.
Ovalles was free on
$100,000 bail on charges
he attempted to kill Kubiak
in January. He was also
free on $1,000 bail on
heroin possession charges,
according to court records.

Ferner retired early from the Air
Force in 2010 and moved to New
Zealand, his wifes native country. He
lives on a 25-acre alpaca farm and is
taking classes at a local university
there. He was not available for com-
ment Wednesday.
Law rms statement
According to Angie Moreschi, com-
munications director/investigator at
James Hoyer Newcomer & Smiljanich,
the law rm issued a press release
detailing the case that has caught
national attention.
The release states: This was a case of
fraud, waste and abuse involving taxpay-
er moneythat one militaryofcer refused
to accept. Its been a frustrating and life
changing ordeal for Lt. Col. Ferner, but
we salute his effort to expose wrongdo-
ing, even though it put his career on the
line by bucking the chain of command.
According to the release, Ferner
was chief of staff for the Coalition and
Irregular Warfare Center at Nellis Air
Force Base in Las Vegas when SAIC
was awarded a multi-million-dollar
contract in 2007 to help CIWC develop
enhanced warfare capabilities in the
ght against terrorism. Ferner became
suspicious that normal contract proce-
dures were bypassed and was alarmed
that his military supervisors condoned
and wanted to cover up the violation.
Ferner is quoted in the release, stat-
ing: We were basically paying guys to
sit around at computers and play games.
The more contractors that came in, the
less work that got done. And the more
that occurred, the angrier I got, because
we were not being good stewards of the
taxpayers money. It was wrong. It was
illegal and it was immoral.
Told to keep quiet
The release states Ferner reported
his concerns up the chain of command,
but his efforts to expose the wrongdo-
ing were rebuffed.
He was toldto keepquiet, the release
states. When he wouldnt, he eventually
faced retaliation. His superiors threat-
ened to deploy him to Afghanistan while
he was undergoing cancer treatment.
Ultimately, Ferner was red from his job
and relegated to a menial position with
little to no responsibility.
The whistle blower suit was joined
by the U.S. Department of Justice. As
a reward under the False Claims Act
for exposing fraud against the govern-
ment, Lt Col Ferner received nearly
$1 million of the nearly $5.75 million
SAIC paid back to the government.
The Justice Department issueda state-
ment on the settlement:
Federal contracts must be awarded
based on full disclosure and fair deal-
ing. It is completely unacceptable for
taxpayer dollars to be paid under cir-
cumstances where the integrity of the
contracting process has been under-
mined.
SAICs viewpoint
Jennifer A. Gephart, spokeswoman
for SAIC, said the company acknowl-
edges a settlement has been reached
with the Department of Justice in the
amount of $5.75M. She provided a
statement from the company on the
settlement:
SAIC disputes the allegations
brought in a complaint by DOJ, but
agreed to settle to avoid cost of pro-
tracted litigation. SAIC was and con-
tinues to be fully cooperative with the
federal government and transparent in
disclosure of information to the DOJ.
Charles Ferner said he is proud of
what his son did to expose fraud.
If he had kept his mouth shut he
probably could have made general,
he said.When I moved here from
New Jersey, I wanted my kids to go to
Scranton Prep and be educated by the
Jesuits. His actions speak well for that
education.
Several other pension oddi-
ties came up Wednesday:
Michael Shucosky will start
receiving a $1,445 monthly
retirement later this month
even though he still works in
county government.
Shucosky is permitted to
receive a pension for past coun-
ty employment while working
as county court administrator
because his current position is
funded and controlled by the
state, ofcials said.
The county pension was
based on Shucoskys more
than 14 years of employment
in county-funded family court,
Hummer said.
Shucosky is eligible to collect
the pension because he turned
60 last month. Former county
employees with less than 20
years of employment generally
must wait until age 60 to receive
a pension, while those with
20-plus years can retire at 55.
Former county District
Attorney Jackie Musto Carroll
is permitted to continue receiv-
ing a county pension even
though she was recently hired
as a part-time assistant county
solicitor for $39,885, Hummer
said.
The state pension law says
retirees can return to work part-
time as long as they work fewer
than 1,000 hours annually.
Hummer said at least one
other retiree still works part-
time for the county, and he
monitors payroll hours. If retir-
ees exceed 1,000 hours, he must
halt their pension because they
would be considered full-time.
Another pension quirk
allowed Musto Carroll to start
collecting a $1,005 monthly pen-
sion last year when she was 52.
Musto Carroll had 12 years of
county employment at the time,
and the law allows employees
with more than eight years of
service to collect pensions early
if theyre involuntarily elimi-
nated through a layoff or loss of
a re-election campaign. Musto
Carroll lost a campaign against
District Attorney Stefanie
Salavantis in November 2011.
Elizabeth (Decker)
Topolski, who ran the protho-
notarys ofce in 2009 after
Jill Morans resignation until
Carolee Medico Olenginski
took ofce, returned to county
employment in the court sys-
tem in January 2012 and is
seeking pension credit for her
prior county employment.
State law allows employees to
buy back past full-time county
employment if they left and
later returned to work a prac-
tice that increases their future
pension.
The board tabled Topolskis
request Wednesday because
county Manager Robert
Lawton, a board member, ques-
tioned if the county can force
Topolski to pay interest on the
purchase price to compensate
the fund for losing out on poten-
tial investment earnings when
her initial employee contribu-
tions were withdrawn.
Topolski received $4,483
the money she paid into the
fund plus interest when she
left county employment, and
thats the amount Hummer stat-
ed must be paid back to buy the
credit. Hummer said he and the
board solicitor reviewed the law
after the meeting and saw no
authority permitting the board
to charge Topolski additional
interest.
In addition to the Shucoskys
pension, the board approved
four monthly pensions over
$1,000 Wednesday: Florence
Muth, $3,723; Al Guerin,
$2,796; Al Flora, who was
terminated as chief public
defender in April, $2,682; John
Sieminski, $2,312; and Paul
McGarry, $2,308.

Police investigate a shooting in Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday night. Police said a 37-year-old man was
shot in the leg on Harkins Lane. The name of the victim was not released. Police said the man
was transported to a local medical facility for a non-life threatening gunshot wound. A firearm
was found on the sidewalk in the area of 43 Harkins Lane. Police said the gunman fled the area
after the shooting that was reported at 9:26 p.m.
Investigation continues
expansion, but she does have trepi-
dation about costs down the road
and that the federal government
might leave Pennsylvania holding
the bag. She said she didnt think it
was appropriate to have the expan-
sion language in a bill that included
language on changing the name of
the Department of Public Welfare,
which she opposes.
Toohil also said it doesnt make
sense to her to pump more money
federal or otherwise into a
Medicaid system that is broken
and currently doesnt provide enough
access to high-quality care, noting
that many physicians in the area no
longer accept Medicaid patients.
Toohil said she believes AdultBasic
a state-subsidized health insur-
ance plan for the working poor
should be reinstated, and more study
of the Medicaid system is needed.
She thinks establishing more free
clinics could help people who cant
afford insurance until the Medicaid
system is xed. And she encouraged
those who cant afford insurance or
treatment, such as Yanko, to come
to her ofce for help nding possible
solutions.
Guy Anthony, a demonstrator
from Montgomery County, said fed-
eral dollars would pay for the expan-
sion for the rst three years and 90
percent after that. He said if federal
funding decreased, Pennsylvania
could drop out of the program.
Told what Anthony said, Toohil
responded that it would be hard to
discontinue the expansion because
you already created dependency.
Anthony, said it was encourag-
ing to see the Senate put partisan-
ship aside and put together a plan
that addressed all these concerns
that (Toohil) claims to have. He
said the House Republican plan
is to create a task force to study
all the other studies that theyve
already studied and then send a
recommendation on those studies
back to the House.
Thats the plan: Do nothing; study,
study, study it to death. My question
you can put to her is, while theyre
studying it, does she have any idea
how many of the 700,000 people are
going to be dead by the time theyre
done studying? Anthony said.

The theme song from
Skyfall crackles out
of raised speakers in a
hotel ballroom festooned
with chandeliers. Youve
heard Adeles lyrics. She
sings about standing tall
together when the sky
crumbles, where worlds
collide and days are
dark.
As the song fades out, Franco
Harris takes the stage alone,
wearing a navy sports coat. His
hair is thinning, but his beard is
thick. He has a microphone in
his hand, a captivated
audience at his feet and
another mans legacy on
his mind rather than his
own.
In the wild month of
November 2011, when
Penn State football coach
Joe Paterno was red,
Harris visited State
College several times.
Driving back to Pittsburgh from
one of these jaunts, he called Bob
Capretto, his friend and a former
Penn State football player. Mr.
Capretto remembers Harris say-
ing, Look Bob, Im going to
be very vocal about this. Youd
better distance yourself from me
because there are going to be
people coming after me.
The rst time Harris spoke
out in support of Paterno in the
wake of the Jerry Sandusky child
sexual abuse scandal, Meadows
Casino and Race Track halted a
sponsorship deal it had recent-
ly made with him. Pittsburgh
Mayor Luke Ravenstahl then
asked him to step down as the
chair of the Pittsburgh Promise
charity.
In the weeks following his
dismissal in 2011, Ravenstahl
received more criticism, and
Harris was quickly reinstated.
Appreciation for his former
coach and a gut feeling drove his
actions.
It was a start where you really
felt that you didnt know where
this was going, he said. You
felt kind of alone. In my wildest
dreams I wouldnt have guessed
where weve come out today.

NEW YORK We may
never know exactly what Alex
Rodriguez and Ryan Braun are
being accused of in Major League
Baseballs Biogenesis investiga-
tion if they beat the rap.
Thats because details likely
will be caught in a tangle of legal
gymnastics involving MLB, the
players union and probably an
arbitrator, who could rule no dis-
cipline is warranted.
Lengthy proceedings make it
nearly a certainty most, if not all,
suspensions would be served in
2014.
Among the early legal issues:
Does the commissioners ofce
have the right to announce any
suspensions before grievances are
decided by an arbitrator? Can a
player not previously disciplined
under the drug agreement be sus-
pended for more than 50 games
because of multiple violations?
Two people familiar with the
investigation said if manage-
ment and the union cant agree
on the process, arbitrator Fredric
Horowitz likely would be asked
to decide. The people spoke on
condition of anonymity because
no public statements were autho-
rized.
MLB has spent most of the
year investigating about 20 play-
ers for their links to Biogenesis
of America, including A-Rod and
Braun, both former MVPs. Miami
New Times reported in January
that the closed Florida anti-aging
clinic had distributed banned
performance-enhancing drugs to
major leaguers.
Lawyers for the commission-
ers ofce have been interview-
ing players and many, including
Braun, have refused to answer
questions about their dealings
with Biogenesis, the two people
said. Braun was interviewed in
late June, and Rodriguez is sched-
uled to be interviewed Friday.
Braun and Rodriguez have said
they didnt do anything that mer-
its discipline.
The players refusal to respond
to MLBs questions were rst
reported by ESPN and the New
York Daily News.
MLB hopes to complete the
player interviews in mid-July but
is not sure whether it will meet
that schedule. Management then
will have to decide what disci-
pline it intends to impose.
Baseballs joint drug agreement
calls for a 50-game suspension
for a rst offense, 100 games for
a second and a lifetime ban for a
third. Among the players linked

MONT- S AI NT- MI CHEL,
FRANCE Halfway through the
Tour de France, Chris Froome
appears unstoppable after
extending the lead on his rivals
in the time trial on Wednesday.
A l t h o u g h
Froome missed
out on his second
stage win by 12
seconds to win-
ner Tony Martin
of Germany, the
stage 11 perfor-
mance felt like
a big victory
for the British rider because his
challengers were at least two
minutes slower.
My biggest race today was
with the other GC riders,
Froome said. Ive extended
my lead so Im very happy with
that.
Spanish rider Alejandro
Valverde is still in second place
overall but 3 minutes, 25 seconds
behind Froome, while Alberto
Contador improved to fourth but
is 3:54 behind.
Meanwhile, the 2010 Tour
champ Andy Schleck and 2011
winner Cadel Evans lost massive
time.
Im happy with my shape,
Froome said. I think Ive shown
in the mountains that I can hold
my own and time trial, also.
As the two-time world time
trial champion, Martin did
not disappoint over the 20.5-
mile route in Normandy from
Avranches to the breathtaking
island citadel of Mont-Saint-
Michel.
Hats off to Tony Martin,
Froome said. It just goes to
show what class he has.

Robert Kraft claims he was
duped, though the owner of
the New England Patriots
seemed to have plenty of
warnings before taking tight
end Aaron Hernandez
in the 2010 NFL draft.
The fact Hernandez
was left untouched by
other teams until mid-
way through the fourth
round despite his obvi-
ous physical skills was
one. So was an inci-
dent while Hernandez
was at the University
of Florida, when the
17-year-old allegedly
refused to pay for two
drinks at a bar andthen
sucker-punched an employee
who tried to collect.
And then there was a
psychological prole from a
scouting service widely dis-
tributed among NFL teams
that ranked him on the bot-
tom of the scale for social
maturity and indicated there
could be problems ahead.
Hernandezs responses
suggest that he enjoys living
on the edge of acceptable
behavior and that he may be
prone to partying too much
and doing questionable
things that could be seen as
a problem for him and his
team, said the report by
Human Resource Tactics,
which was obtained by Wall
Street Journal.
If Kraft was duped, so
were fans who shelled out
100 bucks for a No. 81 jer-
sey. They didnt have access
to psychological proles,
didnt know much about
Hernandez other than he
was a big tight end with soft
hands.
They loved him because
he could catch touchdown
passes, and they cheered
before last season when he
was given a new $40 million
contract to be Tom Bradys
biggest target.
Now Hernandez sits in a
jail cell, charged with a mur-
der portrayed in court docu-
ments as a cold-blooded exe-
cution. He has pleaded not
guilty to the charge. Hes also
being investigated in connec-
tion with a double killing in
Boston last year involving a
car rented in his name.
Millionaire sports hero
one day, just another inmate
the next. There may never
have been such a spectacular
fall by an active player.
During the weekend,
the Patriots held an event
for fans to exchange their
Hernandez jerseys for oth-
ers.
The conversations on the
drive to the stadium must
have been awkward. How do
you tell a kid that the athlete
he or she idolized whose
name was stitched across
their back is an accused
killer?
There are other conversa-
tions that should be just as
uncomfortable: Howcan par-
ents promote hero worship
of athletes when they know
so little about the person in
the uniform? Why are we
so quick to idolize someone
based simply on their ability
to throw or catch a ball?
Hernandez is, of course,
innocent until found guilty.
Thats a basic tenet of our
legal system, and sometimes
things arent always what
authorities say.
But the account of semi
pro player Odin Lloyd being
lured to an early morning car
ride and then shot to death
at what was supposed to be
a bathroom stop is chilling.
So is the police narrative of
Hernandezs reaction when
they asked him later about
a body being found nearby.
They said he didnt ask who
died.
Whats with
all the ques-
tions? police said
Hernandez asked
before shutting the
door on them. He
returned with his
attorneys business
card, but didnt
respond when police
told him they were
investigating the
death, according to
court records. This
isnt just another NFL play-
er arrest, something weve
become accustomed to over
the years. This is uncharted
territory, as evidenced by the
way Kraft and the Patriots
handled it.
Criticize them for signing
Hernandez in the rst place,
sure, but within 90 minutes
of his arrest, they cut him
despite knowing theyd have
to take a hit on the salary
cap. His locker was quickly
cleaned out, and they fur-
ther washed their hands of
him with the jersey trade-in
weekend at Gillette Stadium.
What weve generally seen
in the past when athletes
run afoul with the law, teams
generally stick with their
stars especially through the
legal process like the Ravens
did with Ray Lewis, said
Ramsey Poston, a crisis
communication expert who
heads Tuckahoe Strategies,
a public relations rm in
Denton, Md. This is a very
different move, one that sug-
gests to me that the organi-
zation takes its reputation
very seriously.
The Patriots should have
quit there, but Kraft talked
to a select group of media on
Monday and said Hernandez
seemed like a nice enough
guy. Respectful, likable, he
even gave Kraft a check for
his late wifes charity after
signing a new contract.
Maybe Kraft didnt read
the psychological review,
though it hardly matters.
Because in football in all
sports, really the urge to
win trumps everything and
teams with the most tal-
ented players win more than
others.
Its why baseball teams
reward known steroid users
with fat new contracts, and
why players such as Pacman
Jones keep getting chances
in the NFL.
Indeed, Hernandez was
a winner on the eld, help-
ing the Patriots get to their
last Super Bowl, where he
caught a touchdown pass
and led the teamin receiving
yards.
Sometimes, though,
theres a price to pay for put-
ting winning ahead of every-
thing.
Fans, meanwhile, prob-
ably wont give it a second
thought except to ponder
who the Patriots might nd
to replace Hernandez. Not
their fault he was drafted by
the team, certainly not their
fault he was charged with
murder.
Besides, when it comes
to hero worship, theres
always another player. And,
of course, another jersey to
be had.

Yankees shortstop Derek Jeter, center, grounds out in the first inning as Rochester first baseman
Chris Colabello, right, awaits the throw and home plate umpire Chad Whitson watches from behind at
PNC Field in Moosic on Wednesday night. Jeter is on a rehab assignment with the RailRiders.

Rochester pitcher silences RailRiders
By DAVE ROSENGRANT
drosengrant@timesleader.com
MOOSIC For the rst
time since Derek Jeter
was in town with the
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre,
the RailRiders lost a ball
game.
Rochester and a
power outage at PNC
Field ruined Jeters
party on Wednesday
night as starting pitch-
er Liam Hendriks held
SWB in check over eight
innings allowing just one
run on three hits as the
Red Wings stopped the
RailRiders six-game win
streak with a 5-1 win at
PNC Field.
Jeter, meanwhile saw
a lot of action in the
eld being a part of six
plays, but the 39-year-old
Yankee captain looked a
bit rusty having trouble
on an exchange once and
committing a throwing
error on another.
The third inning was an
eventful frame for Jeter.
First, he took a one-
hopper, backed up,
planted on his left foot
and threw a strike to
rst. Two batters later,
he charged a bouncer to
the left side then threw to
third on a elders choice.
The very next ball in play
was hit up the middle that
Jeter went to his left and
got to, but no out was
recorded on the ineld
single. He got a chance
on the next ball in play
again. This time a hard
grounder hit mildly to his
right. He had a little trou-
ble getting a grip on the
ball, but threw to second
in time for the force out.
Then in the fourth
inning with two outs,
he charged once again,
elded the slow-hopper
throwing to rst to get
the out. On the next
opportunity he wasnt
so fortunate going to his
left then bouncing a ball
on the throw to rst that
went for an error.
I felt good. There was
a lot of different situa-
tions that happened. It
was good to do an array
of things there, said
Jeter, who signed auto-
graphs during the 21-min-
ute delay while the lights
on the left side of the eld
were out.
During his press con-
ference he said that he
had not been informed
yet by New York person-
nel where he would be
playing today because the
Yankees game had just
concluded. But if his time
with the RailRiders is up,
he enjoyed it.
The fans have been
great to me while Ive
Jeter makes six
plays in the feld
and commits an
error at short

The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA Gio
Gonzalez tossed seven sharp
innings, the Nationals hit a
pair of consecutive homers off
Cliff Lee and Washington beat
the Philadelphia Phillies 5-1
Wednesday night.
Anthony Rendon and Wilson
Ramos hit back-to-back shots
off Lee to start the fth and
Ryan Zimmerman and Jayson
Werth did it to open the sixth.
Gonzalez (7-3) gave up one
run and six hits, striking out
ve to win his fourth straight
start. The lefty has eight qual-
ity starts in a row.
Lee (10-3) had allowed
nine homers in his rst 135
2-3 innings this year before
yielding four in a span of eight
batters.
Darin Ruf hit a solo shot
for the Phillies, who failed to
reach .500 for the rst time
since June 7.
Yankees 8, Royals 1
NEW YORK Robinson
Cano hit a three-run homer,
Lyle Overbay added a grand
slam and the New York
Yankees snapped out of their
offensive funk with a victory
over the Kansas City Royals.
Ivan Nova delivered another
impressive pitching per-
formance and the Yankees,
held to one run each of the
previous three days, stopped
a three-game slide. They
watched two more players
get banged up, though, when
slumping Travis Hafner and
speedy Brett Gardner left with
injuries.
Hafner came out with
a bruised left foot, while
Gardner departed with a
bruised right leg after getting
hit by a pitch for the second
time.
The team said X-rays on
both were negative and they
were day to day.
Marlins 6, Braves 2
MIAMI Giancarlo
Stanton hit a two-run double
to end a 10-game RBI drought,
and the Miami Marlins broke
a ve-game losing streak by
beating Atlanta.
Stanton had been in a
3-for-26 slump before he put
the Marlins ahead in their
four-run rst inning against
Paul Maholm (9-8). Placido
Polanco added three hits and
three RBIs.
Mets 7, giants 2
SAN FRANCISCO
Former Giants prospect Zack
Wheeler pitched seven sharp
innings, Marlon Byrd homered
again and the New York Mets
completed their rst sweep in
San Francisco since 1994 with
a win.
Daniel Murphy and John
Buck each had two hits and
drove in two runs as the Mets
won their fourth in a row,
including three straight over
the slumping World Series
champions. The Giants have
lost 16 of 19.
Wheeler (3-1), a former
Giants rst-round draft pick,
took a shutout into the sev-
enth. He allowed one run and
three hits overall, striking out
ve and walking three.
Reds 6, Brewers 2
MILWAUKEE Mike
Leake scattered four hits over
8 1-3 innings and Brandon
Phillips had three RBI, lifting
the Cincinnati Reds to a win
over the Milwaukee Brewers.
The Reds put the leadoff
runner on base in each of
the rst seven innings and
snapped a three-game losing
streak.
Orioles 6, Rangers 1
BALTIMORE Wei-Yin
Chen returned from the
disabled list to pitch seven
innings of three-hit ball, and
the Baltimore Orioles got a
three-run homer from Nolan
Reimold in a victory over the
Texas Rangers.
Manny Machado had
three hits and an RBI for the
Orioles, who won for only
the third time in nine games.
Baltimore will seek a split
of the four-game series on
Thursday night.
tigers 8, White Sox 5
DETROIT Prince Fielder
homered, Rick Porcello
pitched six solid innings and
the Detroit Tigers bounced
back with a victory over the
Chicago White Sox.
Detroit allowed 23 hits in an
11-4 loss to the White Sox on
Tuesday, but it was the Tigers
who did the slugging early on
in this game. Fielder lined a
two-run shot to right eld in
the rst inning for his 16th
homer of the year.
Alex Avilas two-run single
in the third put Detroit ahead
5-1.
Blue Jays 5, indians 4
CLEVELAND Munenori
Kawasaki hit a two-run single
with the bases loaded in the
ninth inning and the Toronto
Blue Jays beat the Cleveland
Indians 5-4 Tuesday night.
Kawasaki, who broke an
0-for-18 slump, lined a 1-2
pitch from Joe Smith into
left-center eld to score two
runs. A third run scored when
center elder Michael Bourn
booted the ball for an error.
The Associated Press
PHILADELPHIA Former
Phillies All-Star catcher
Darren Daulton has been diag-
nosed with brain cancer.
A statement released by
Philadelphia radio station 97.5
The Fanatic says Daulton has
glioblastoma. The American
Brain Tumor Association calls
that form of cancer highly
malignant.
Daulton had hosted a
nightly radio show at the sta-
tion before doctors found two
tumors on his brain on June
27.
He had an operation to
remove them on July 1.
The statement says Daulton
has returned to his home near
Clearwater, Fla., to continue
recuperating with his immedi-
ate family and friends. He will
eventually begin treatments
there.
Daulton played 14 1/2 of
his 15 major league seasons
with Philadelphia and was a
key part of the Phillies NL
championship team in 1993.
He nished his career with the
1997 World Series champion
Florida Marlins.

1914 Babe Ruth made his major league debut
for the Boston Red Sox and received credit for a
4-3 victory over Cleveland. He was removed for a
pinch hitter in the seventh, and Duffy Lewis single
led to the winning run.
1944 Phil Cavaretta set an All-Star game re-
cord by reaching base safely fve straight times
triple, single, three walks to lead the NL to a 7-1
victory over the AL at Forbes Field in Pittsburgh.
1950 The All-Star game returned to Comiskey
Park, the site of the frst game, and was won by
the NL 4-3 on Red Schoendiensts 14th-inning
home run off Ted Gray. It was the frst extra-inning
All-Star game, the frst time the NL won at an AL
park and the frst All-Star game shown on network
television.
1961 Despite a record seven errors and pitcher
Stu Miller getting blown off the Candlestick Park
mound by a gale wind, the NL edged the AL 5-4
in the frst of two All-Star games played that year.
1967 Tony Perezs home run off Catfsh Hunter
in the 15th inning gave the NL a 2-1 win in the
longest game in All-Star history. The game was
played in Californias Anaheim Stadium.
1973 Jim Northrup of Detroit knocked in eight
runs, batting in the leadoff spot, to lead the Tigers
to a 14-2 romp over the Texas Rangers.
1978 Steve Garvey keyed the NLs 7-3 All-
Star victory at San Diegos Jack Murphy Stadium
with a game-tying, two-run single and a triple that
sparked a four-run eighth inning.
1985 Nolan Ryan of the Houston Astros be-
came the frst pitcher in major league history to
reach the 4,000-strikeout mark when he fanned
New Yorks Danny Heep leading off the sixth in-
ning. The Astros beat the Mets 4-3 in 12 innings
on Bill Dorans ffth hit of the game.
1995 Jeff Conines solo shot in the eighth in-
ning gave the NL a 3-2 victory in the All-Star
game. Craig Biggio and Mike Piazza also hom-
ered for the NL.
2000 Derek Jeter of the New York Yankees
went 3-for-3 with two RBIs and a run scored as
the AL defeated the NL 6-3 in the All-Star game.

Swanek hurls no-hitter
For The Times Leader/Eric Seidle
Kaya Swanek of Plains slides into second base for a double during Wednesday nights softball win over Carbino Club.
evolved into a widely resonating move-
ment. Hes pestered the universitys
board of trustees constantly, sometimes
crashing their meetings, other times
signing up for the public comment ses-
sions.
Hes hosted several heavily-attended
pro-Paterno rallies. On 36-hour notice
in December, Harris found out NCAA
president Mark Emmert was scheduled
to speak at a luncheon in California,
flew from Pittsburgh to ask one ques-
tion about the NCAA sanctions then flew
back that night.
Most recently, he helped endorse three
candidates for the trustees May alumni
elections. Before their victory was official
he addressed the current trustees at their
meeting, saying, Well never understand
your lust for power, board of trustees, but
we will never back down.
Whether Harris is flying to California,
commanding attention at a trustees meet-
ing or espousing his views on TV, many
involved say he is not only the key link
holding this chain of protest together,
but the original designer.
If its not Franco, I dont know who it
is, Penn State trustee Anthony Lubrano
said. Without that notoriety, without
that push, I think it wouldve been much
easier to just say, You know what, were
just moving on and were not looking
back at this at all.
Ruffling feathers
After screening the mini-movie The
Framing of Paterno, passing out dia-
grams of the infamous Lasch Building
coaches locker room and bringing
up possible conspiracy theories at his
Upon Further Review rally in the State
College hotel ballroom, Harris asks the
crowd, Who can we believe in? Who can
we trust?
Quickly, somebody yells, You Franco.
Even when discussing heated issues,
he sounds remarkably calm, almost
soothing.
His steady cadence masks the complex-
ity or, as many would say, the extreme-
ness of his rhetoric.
There is no reluctance when it comes
to divulging his hard-core beliefs about
Paterno, who died in January 2012. Harris
discussed how after analyzing Paternos
grand jury testimony he now thinks
Paterno was briefed by somebody on
what to tell the grand jury because of lan-
guage he considers unusual.
Another one of his major points cen-
ters on a conspiracy to fire Paterno that
he believes is linked to John Surma, the
former trustees vice chairman, who is the
CEO of U.S. Steel.
His evidence toward this conclusion is
largely based upon a frayed relationship
between Paterno and Mr. Surmas broth-
er, Victor Surma, a former Penn State
football player, depicted in a series of
emails recovered from a 2007 Penn State
lettermans listserv group.
Neither Victor Surma nor John Surma
responded to interview requests.
Harris qualifies his theory by saying
hes just showing information, a strate-
gy that parallels the way radio host Glenn
Beck and other well-known contrarians
often portray arguments, presenting a
view for several minutes to a like-minded
audience and then telling those people
they dont have to accept the premise
that its just a possibility.
They are listening, though. Whether
that influence is being used for good is
another question.
Harris has been joined at most of the
Upon Further Review events by docu-
mentary filmmaker John Ziegler, who
directed The Framing of Joe Paterno,
and Ray Blehar, a Penn State graduate
and former federal government analyst
who has tirelessly studied the Freeh
report and authored numerous rebuttals
of it.
In State College, Blehar attempted
to discredit the testimony of some of
Sanduskys victims, saying they exagger-
ated how small and young they were when
they were sexually violated by Sandusky.
In a later email exchange, Blehar wrote,
[prosecutor Joe] McGettigan coached
many of the witnesses into changing
their stories.
He said his purpose of dissecting
their testimony was to draw attention to
Pennsylvanias child protective services.
In late March, the name of Victim 2
was leaked on Zieglers website. His
prison interview of Sandusky, broad-
cast on the Today show, prompted the
Paterno family to disavow him, saying
in a statement that Zieglers interview
was transparently self-serving and yet
another insult to the victims and anyone
who cares about the truth in this tragic
story.
Harris continues to associate with Mr.
Ziegler, assigning him to the panel at
his April presentation in State College
and his May presentation in the Lehigh
Valley.
As Penn State continues to move on
from the Sandusky scandal and Harris
and his team veer further toward per-
sonal vendettas and the questioning
of Sandusky victims, how long can the
grace period endure?
Chuck Franzetta was a senior when
Harris arrived on campus as a freshman.
He said he respects Harris as an athlete,
person, humanitarian and businessman,
but considers his actions detrimental
to the university, preventing Penn State
from showcasing its academic achieve-
ments and thwarting football coach Bill
OBrien from assembling and leading the
best team.
Further, he questions the veracity of
Harris message. Of the board of trust-
ees, which Mr. Harris has accused of con-
spiracy, Franzetta points out that four of
the 32 board members in November 2011
were former football players who respect-
ed Paterno.
Three of them, Dave Joyner, Paul
Suhey and Steve Garban, were captains.
Mr. Franzetta said he has asked Harris
via email and in person to discontinue his
actions.
Their attacks on those people are
wrong, Franzetta said. I get a little
emotional about that. Theyre wrong.
They shouldnt be doing that. They are
going after people who are good, decent
people who have committed themselves
to this university. I guess at some point
somebody has to stand up and say,
Stop it, shut up.
Cabrera, Oaklands Bartolo
Colon and San Diegos
Yasmani Grandal have served
50-game penalties following
positive testosterone tests.
The drug agreement speci-
es that if a suspension for a
rst PED offense is challenged
by the union, the violation is
not made public unless the
penalty is sustained in arbitra-
tion. However, discipline for
second and third offenses are
announced and served while
the grievance is litigated.
There also is a provision
stating the commissioners
office may publicly announce
the discipline of a player if the
allegations relating to a play-
ers violation of the program
previously had been made
public through a source other
than the commissioners office
or a club or their employees.
The sides or the arbitrator
will have to decide whether
the media accounts of
Biogenesis are covered by that
clause.
Each players case probably
will be handled in a separate
arbitration, which could slow
down the process while the
sides secure dates before
Horowitz or agree to retain
other arbitrators.
The three players who
already have served suspen-
sions also may claim they
cant be penalized under a
provision prohibiting mul-
tiple disciplines for the same
use. In addition, they cant
be penalized for conduct that
took place before they were
given notice of their positive
drug test.
rst two time splits but slowed down in
the last section. Martin won in just over
36 minutes.
Im not sad at all with that, said
Froome, who also nished second behind
countryman Bradley Wiggins on last years
longer time trial. I gave that time trial
everything I had.
He was the only rider to get within a
minute of Martin, with Belgian Thomas
De Gendt 1:01 behind in third.
Martin was lucky to be racing after he
lost consciousness on his team bus after
his crash in the opening stage. His left
lung was bruised and layers of skin were
shredded off his back.
At night, I couldnt sleep either on my
left or right sides or on my back, Martin
said.
He was not the only one having sleepless
nights.
His mother Bettina Martin said at the
nish line of his rst-day crash, I was very
shocked, very worried, and needed a long
time before I was back to normal again.
Still, nothing would deter Martin, who
won the penultimate stage of the 2011
Tour, also a time trial, and nished second
to Wiggins in the time trial at the London
Olympics.
The goal was always to continue the
Tour de France because its a big honor,
Martin said. When doctors said OK,
I kept the focus on todays stage. I knew
I would not be 100 percent for the team
time trial (last week), but I had a good
chance to recover for today.
There are still some deeper wounds
that are left to heal, but its not that painful
anymore.
Others had a more painful day.
Contador looked stern-faced and tense
when he prepared to start. The Spaniard
nished in 15th place, 2:15 behind Martin;
Evans was 2:30 slower, and Schleck n-
ished 4:44 behind Martin.
No ones won the Tour de France yet
and no ones lost it. We have to get to Paris
yet, Contador said. Chris Froome is in
impressive form and is a great climber, but
there are still many stages left.
Even though Evans is 6:54 behind
Froome in 14th place, he has not given up.
I think we will get a few chances, the
Australian said. In the last four days (of
the race) we will give everything.
The team of Mark Cavendish, winner
of the fth stage, believes someone threw
urine at the British rider along the route.
To do something disrespectful like that
is really sad and ruins the whole atmo-
sphere, Froome said.
The 12th stage today is one of two con-
secutive at days for sprinters, taking the
riders on a 135.5-mile route from Fougeres
to Tours in the Loire valley, a picturesque
region of ancient chateaux and vineyards.
The climbers will face a medium moun-
tain stage on Saturday and daunting
ascent of Mont Ventoux on Sunday. It
gives Froome another chance to crush his
wilting rivals.
been here. I didnt realize there
were that many Yankees fans in
Scranton. I gured Pennsylvania
might be more Phillies or
Pirates, said Jeter, who nished
Wednesday 0-for-3 with a pair
of groundouts and a strikeout
looking. Ive enjoyed meeting
most of Scranton while Ive been
here.
RailRiders starter Jose
Ramirez (1-2) struggled getting
through the rst inning. The
23-year-old had to throw 40
pitches and gave up three runs
on two hits and two walks. The
big blow of the frame came from
Chris Colabello, who hit a three-
run homer. It was his second in
as many games and No. 23 of the
season to put the RailRiders in
a rst-inning hole for the fth
straight game.
The second inning wasnt
much better as he was pulled
getting just one out and walking
two more. His nal line was three
runs, two hits and four walks
allowed in just 1 1-3 innings. His
struggle with command showed
throwing 56 pitches with the
majority of them (31) missing
the strike zone.
Rochester added a pair of runs
in the third against right-hander
Caleb Cotham to up the lead to
5-0.
During the recent stretch
of success, getting down
early wasnt a problem for the
RailRiders. But this time ve
runs was too much to overcome.
Especially since Hendriks was
on his game not allowing a hit
until J.R. Murphys hard single
to left with one out in the fth
inning.
The RailRiders avoided the
shutout getting a run in the
bottom of the eighth when
Adonis Garcia doubled then
scored on a double play ball.

Couples looks to break through in US Senior Open
The Associated Press
OMAHA, Neb. Fred
Couples feels like hes overdue
for a win.
Hes played seven events on
the Champions Tour this year,
has been in the top ve in six of
them and comes into the U.S.
Senior Open today off three
straight runner-up nishes.
I would like to win some-
thing, he said Wednesday,
adding that he even came in
second in a member-guest
tournament in California last
month.
Couples most recent vic-
tory was just under a year
ago at the 2012 Senior British
Open. He looked ready to win
two weeks ago in the Senior
Players Championship, but
a back-nine collapse left him
tied for second behind Kenny
Perry.
Couples said his bothersome
back is feeling ne, so if the
man nicknamed Boom Boom
for his prodigious drives can
nd the fairway at Omaha
Country Club, no one would
be surprised if this is the week
he breaks through.
Fred still hits the ball a tre-
mendous distance, Bernhard
Langer said. He hasnt lost
any distance, maybe gained
some with the equipment and
all that. Hes capable of produc-
ing very low scores. Wherever
he tees up, hes one of the main
favorites, no doubt about it.
Couples, Perry, Langer, Tom
Watson and David Frost are
among the top contenders at
the 6,700-yard, par-70 Omaha
Country Club.
The fourth of the ve senior
majors will be a test of stamina
for the 50-and-over golfers,
especially with weekend highs
forecast in the low 90s with
high humidity. The course is
hilly, featuring elevation and
topographical changes that
belie the popular image of the
central plains.
Nebraska, youd think at
and hot, Perry said. I got the
hot part right, but its the hilli-
est golf course Ive ever been
on.
Drives in the fairway will be
at a premium with the rough
cut high and the greens small
and sloped. The 312-yard 13th
hole is drivable, but the course
features the second-longest
par-3 in U.S. Senior Open his-
tory in the 230-yard third hole
and the third-longest par-4 in
the 494-yard 10th.
The 53-year-old Couples
scaled-back schedule begins
to ramp up now. After the
U.S. Senior Open, he plays the
British Open at Muireld and
Senior British Open at Royal
Birkdale in consecutive weeks
which might be a little
much, he said.
For a man with a notoriously
bad back, the schedule is tax-
ing, in no small part because
of the challenge the Omaha
Country Club presents. Even in
the best of circumstances, golf-
ers will nd themselves with a
good number of side-hill and
downhill lies. And then theres
that gnarly, 4-inch rough.
If I drive it in the rough and
dont have a great lie, Im not
going to do too much out of
it, Couples said. Ill probably
play it safe.
Roger Chapman will try
to become the rst defend-
ing champion to repeat since
Allen Doyle in 2006. Chapman,
who also won the Senior PGA
Championship last year, has
not been able to recapture his
2012 magic. He has one top-10
nish in 13 events.
Notable rst-time entrants
are Colin Montgomerie, who
turned 50 last month and tied
for ninth in the Senior Players
Championship; Rocco Mediate,
who lost a playoff to Tiger
Woods in the classic 2008 U.S.
Open at Torrey Pines; and
Duffy Waldorf, who has six
top-10s in 11 Champions Tour
events this year.
Perry, the Charles Schwab
Cup points leader, is looking
for his second win of the year
in a senior major. He shot
three straight rounds in the
60s to win the Senior Players
Championship by 2 shots
over Couples and Waldorf in
Pittsburgh.
Anything that has major
attached to it was always
my one goal, Perry said.
Obviously, our majors out
here probably are not looked
upon like they are on the PGA
Tour, but yet theyre still a
major. It still will be attached
to your name.
Stricker the man to beat at
John Deer Classic
SILVIS, Ill. Steve Stricker
might be the only golfer on the
PGA Tour who isnt peeking
ahead to Muireld and next
weeks British Open.
Strickers single-minded
focus on TPC Deere Run, com-
bined with his recent domi-
nance of the course, makes him
the man to beat at this week-
ends John Deere Classic.
The 46-year-old Stricker
is skipping the Open
Championship as part of a plan
to spend more time with his
family. But Stricker won the
John Deere Classic three times
from 2009-11.
Hes not about to pass on a
shot at a fourth title just down
the road in Illinois.
Stricker and native Iowan
Zach Johnson headline a eld
left a bit thin because many of
the worlds top golfers are pre-
paring for the British Open.

UNCreviewing mens basketball issues
The Associated Press
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.
North Carolina ath-
letic director Bubba
Cunningham said
Wednesday the school is
gathering information on
potential improper con-
duct by members of the
mens basketball team
a month after the drug
arrest of leading scorer
P.J. Hairston.
Cunninghams state-
ment didnt name any
player specifically. But
the AD did say he and
coach Roy Williams will
support the appropriate
disciplinary measures
for any player if war-
ranted at the completion
of the universitys inves-
tigation.
We take these mat-
ters very seriously and
are looking into these
reports and the infer-
ences they contain
with all due diligence,
Cunningham said. It
is my practice not to
comment on the indi-
viduals involved or the
details surrounding these
reports until we have suf-
ficient understanding of
the facts involved. We
are still gathering infor-
mation, learning informa-
tion from other sources,
and we will not comment
until we have a strong
grasp of each individual
situation.
The school started
gathering informa-
tion after Hairston was
arrested June 5 during a
license checkpoint in
Durham.
Hairston and two
passengers were each
charged with misdemean-
or marijuana possession.
Officers also seized
a 9mm handgun and
ammunition during the
stop, with Durham police
spokeswoman Kammie
Michael saying the pistol
was found on the ground
outside the rental vehicle
during the search.
Police havent linked
the gun to Hairston or
his passengers.
All three are scheduled
for an August court hear-
ing.
Hairston was driving a
rented vehicle linked to
a convicted felon facing
pending drug charges at
the time of the arrest.
Trades and new
contracts become
ofcial around NBA
Brian Mahoney
AP Basketball Writer
Just about every NBA
team would like Dwight
Howard.
Only the Houston
Rockets could get him,
and on Wednesday some
of his other suitors either
announced their backup
plans or were still work-
ing on them.
Paul Millsap is headed
to Atlanta. The Dallas
Mavericks are consider-
ing Andrew Bynum. The
Golden State Warriors
have acquired Andre
Iguodala.
The Los Angeles
Clippers never had to
look beyond their top
target, with Chris Paul
committing to stay on the
rst day of free agency.
They also added Darren
Collison, Jared Dudley
and J.J. Redick to a team
that won the Pacic
Division last season, sur-
passing the Lakers as the
best team in Los Angeles.
Its hard to see that
changing after Howard
passed on re-signing with
the Lakers and instead
opted for the Rockets in
a deal that still hadnt
become ofcial as of
Wednesday night.
That was the rst day
transactions could be
completed and contacts
signed following the
completion of the NBAs
moratorium period. The
Rockets couldnt wait
to talk about their All-
Star center, getting ned
$150,000 by the league
on Tuesday for premature
comments about Howard
on TV and in social
media.
The rest of the league
waited until rules allowed
Wednesday.
The Clippers held a
press conference for Paul,
the three new players and
the re-signed Matt Barnes
and Ryan Hollins on what
Paul called one of the
biggest days in franchise
history.
While they were cel-
ebrating, Bynum was
meeting with Dallas,
another team that wanted
Howard.
Bynum was part of the
four-team trade that sent
Howard from Orlando to
Los Angeles last summer,
but never played a game
for Philadelphia because
of knee problems.
The Cleveland
Cavaliers have already
offered him a contract,
and the Mavericks are
weighing the risk.
At this point, were
having medical discus-
sions and well have the
opportunity to get with
him and his agent and
better understand the
risks involved and make
a good decision for our
franchise, said Donnie
Nelson, the teams presi-
dent of basketball opera-
tions. Currently, we still
need help and support in
our front court and were
going to turn over every
stone.
Charlotte got bigger
by adding former Utah
center Al Jefferson, while
his former Jazz teammate
Millsap is also bound for
the Southeast Division
with the Hawks.
Atlanta missed out on
Howard, and forward
Josh Smith left for a $54
million, four-year deal
with Detroit, but the
Hawks bounced back by
giving Millsap a two-year,
$19 million contract.
The Jazz also got
involved in the deal that
landed Iguodala with the
Warriors, who gave him
a four-year, $48 million
deal last week. Golden
State cleared more than
$24 million by sending
Richard Jefferson, Andris
Biedrins and Brandon
Rush to the Jazz along
with four draft picks and
cash. Denver received
guard Randy Foye from
the Jazz.
Chris Andersen signed
a $1.7 million, one-year
deal to stay with the
Miami Heat, who will
have to hold off some
stronger challengers next
season in the Eastern
Conference. Indiana re-
signed power forward
David West and added
C.J. Watson as a backup
point guard, while the
Chicago Bulls improved
their outside shooting by
signing Mike Dunleavy.
The New York Knicks
hope they did, too, with
the acquisition of Andrea
Bargnani. However, the
former No. 1 overall pick
from Italy struggled dur-
ing an injury-plagued
2012-13 season for the
Toronto Raptors, who
shipped him to New York
for Steve Novak, Quentin
Richardson, Marcus
Camby and three future
draft picks.
The NBAs other big
deal of the offseason,
the trade sending Kevin
Garnett and Paul Pierce
from Boston to Brooklyn,
will be completed Friday.
The Nets could pay
more than $70 million in
taxes in the rst season of
the NBAs harsher penal-
ties for teams who exceed
the limit.
Teams resort to backup
plans in wake of Rockets
signing of Dwight Howard

Staford signs $53M, 3-year extension with Lions
Larry Lage
AP Sports Writer
ALLEN PARK, Mich.
Matthew Stafford ended a
conversation.
Stafford signed a $53
million, three-year exten-
sion with the Detroit
Lions to stay under con-
tract for $76.5 million
over the next ve seasons.
The deal came a month
after the 25-year-old quar-
terback answered another
round of questions about
his future with the team.
I dont want to go for
the next three years talk-
ing about, Well, youve
got two years left. Youve
got one year left; now
youre getting
franchised, said
Stafford, who
had two years
left on the deal
he signed as the
No. 1 overall
pick in the 2009
draft. Thats just
something Im not
about. I want to
be about the team. I want
to help the team out if I
can in cap space, whatever
it is. I want good players
around me as a quarter-
back.
Stafford and the Lions
agreed to terms Tuesday
on the deal that will pay
him another $41.5 mil-
lion in guarantees, and
he signed the contract
Wednesday morning to
answer the question about
where hell play in the near
future.
It was important
too to remove that dia-
logue, Lions President
Tom Lewand said. Not
that Matthew would let
it become a distraction
or that we would let it
become a distraction. But
as he said, he was not the
kind of person that
wants to go into
next year talking
about one year left
on a contract or
possibly going into
a franchise tag.
This way we avoid
that.
The deal clears
some salary cap
space for a franchise des-
perately seeking success
with only one playoff vic-
tory since winning the
1957 NFL title.
Detroit hasnt won much
in large part because its
last Pro Bowl quarterback
was Greg Landry in 1971.
The last time the Lions
were a league power in
the 1950s they were led
by Hall of Fame QB Bobby
Layne, who like Stafford
played at Highland Park
High School in Dallas.
Theyre counting on
Stafford to make playoff
appearances a regular
occurrence, not something
that has happened only
once in 2011 in 13
years.

NASCARissues no
penalties for roof faps
The Associated Press
DAYTONA BEACH,
Fla. NASCAR declined
on Wednesday to penal-
ize the 31 cars that failed
inspection in the Sprint
Cup and Nationwide
Series at Daytona.
NASCAR conscated
the teams roof aps,
which are designed to
keep cars on the ground
during spins and wrecks
at high speeds, for further
inspection.
Thirty-one cars, includ-
ing 16 in the Sprint Cup
Series, failed inspec-
tion before Thursdays
practices at Daytona
International Speedway.
Based upon our
inspection and subse-
quent review, it was our
determination that the
functionality and safety
aspects of the roof aps
were not compromised
and the on track com-
petition would not be
impacted, NASCAR vice
president of competition
Robin Pemberton said.
Moving forward we will
work with the roof ap
manufacturer and the
race teams to evaluate
and optimize the associat-
ed installation hardware,
review the process in its
totality and communicate
in a timely manner to the
garage area any revisions
that we determine need
to be made.
The roof-ap spac-
ers had been illegally
machined down to reduce
weight.
NASCAR inspectors
made those Cup teams
install new, unaltered
roof aps before drivers
were allowed on the track
for the rst of two prac-
tices.
Inspectors then went
to the Nationwide garage
and found similar issues
on 15 cars.
The Cup cars involved
included all three Joe
Gibbs Racing entries
(Kyle Busch, Denny
Hamlin and Matt
Kenseth), all three Roush
Fenway Racing entries
(Greg Bife, Carl Edwards
and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.),
all three Michael Waltrip
Racing entries (Clint
Bowyer, Martin Truex
Jr. and Michael Waltrip)
and both Roger Penske
Racing entries (Joey
Logano and defending
series champion Brad
Keselowski). Cars driv-
en by Jamie McMurray,
Trevor Bayne, Casey
Mears, Marcos Ambrose
and Aric Almirola also
failed inspection.
Nationwide drivers
busted include Bayne,
Brian Vickers, Reed
Sorenson and Travis
Pastrana.

Here is breaking news from
recent scientific studies.
If you are in your home,
EVERYBREATHYOUTAKE
CAN BE DANGEROUS TO
YOURHEALTH.
The EPAhas found that in-
door air has 100 times more
pollution than outdoor air. The
EPAreports that this pollution
has now been linked to numer-
ous health problems including
heart attacks and cancer.
Anew ultra air purifier that
is used by hospitals removes
99.9% of this harmful pollu-
tion and relieves the suffering
it causes. It is now available to
the public in a home sized
model.
Indoor air pollution is gen-
erated by many sources includ-
ing human infections, pet dan-
der, dust mites, decomposing
insects, bacteria breading dirt
in carpets, household cleaners,
laundry detergent, synthetic
fabrics, personal care toiletries,
household appliances, comput-
ers, paint, stoves, furnaces, air
conditioning, fireplaces, tobac-
co, and much more.
This pollution causes al-
lergies, breathing problems
and headaches, as most peo-
ple know. However recent re-
search has found that it caus-
es more serious health prob-
lems. Small particle pollu-
tants that are not removed by
conventional air purifiers
such as hepa filters get into
the lining of your lungs. They
then breed toxins which then
travel into your blood stream.
They then can cause serious
health problems in every part
of your body.
Ashort while ago, a highly
advanced air purification sys-
tem was developed that uses
400 degree heat at a central
core to destroy virtually all
pollution. This advanced pu-
rification system has been
proven in 20 international, in-
dependent scientific studies.
Hospitals then used this air
purification system in the form
of large commercial units.
They found it to be lifesaving
in that it cut the spread of in-
fections, diseases, and re-
moved the cause of many oth-
er health problems.
Ahigh-tech company then
developed a small version of
these commercial units for
home and small institution use.
These small units are now
available to the public for home
use, and they are being used by
small hospital facilities, doctors
offices, schools, and nurseries.
This small version of the
hospital air purifier is the
EdenPURE

Air Purifier by
Air Free

. It has no fan so it
runs silent. It has no filter or
UVlight bulbs to replace sav-
ing you up to $229 a year over
conventional air purifiers. It
uses less electricity than a 60
watt light bulb.
If you have allergies and
breathing problems this new
air purifier will relieve those. If
you have headaches that are
related to pollution, it will also
relieve those. If you have other
health problems that are relat-
ed to harmful pollution, this
advanced air purifier will re-
lieve those also.
The patented technology
developed byAirFree

kills up
to 99.99% of all pollution and
ALL microorganisms (germs
and viruses) passing through
the 400 degree ceramic core,
yet it cannot burn anyone. It is
totally safe.
The EdenPURE

by Air
Free

works in 15 minutes
to kill germs, viruses, mold,
mildew, bacteria, pollen, pet
dander, ozone, odors, dust mite
allergens and much more.
To learn more about the in-
credible healthy air offered by
the EdenPURE

Air Purifiers
by AirFree

, here is an exclu-
sive interview with WilliamT.
Betts, Director of Research and
Development for EdenPURE

.
Q. You said this technol-
ogy is used in hospitals?
A. Yes. Hospitals trust the
technology found in the Eden-
PURE

by AirFree

to stop
the spread of infections and rid
the air of pollution that causes
serious health problems.
There are hundreds of dif-
ferent kinds of disease-causing
germs and viruses in hospitals
and the technology found in
the EdenPURE

Air Purifier
by Air Free

is what hospitals
pick to help stop the spread of
infections. There is also other
pollution that makes people ill,
some to the point of being life
threatening. EPAstudies have
found that indoor air pollution
is linked to many serious
health problems including
heart attacks and cancer.
Countless lives have been
saved thanks in part to the Air-
Free

technology found in
EdenPURE

by AirFree

pro-
ducing the clean, sterile envi-
ronment hospitals need for
surgeries and other life and
death procedures.
The revolutionary, patent-
ed AirFree

Sterilization Sys-
tem (TSS) kills up to 99.99%
of ALLmicro organisms pass-
ing through the 400 degree ce-
ramic core. It also removes the
most harmful air pollution oth-
er air purifiers do not.
You will feel physically
and mentally better because
you will have less pollutants in
the air making you feel run
down and sick because of the
99.99% kill rate of micro or-
ganisms that cause respiratory
problems and illness.
And its incredibly safe
around pets and children. The
air that goes through the 400
degree Thermodynamic Steril-
izing System is cooled off
quickly and emits less heat
than a persons body heat, so
there is NO chance of being
burned.
Q. What kinds of pollu-
tants does EdenPURE

byAir
Free

remove fromthe air?


A. The EdenPURE

byAir
Free

works in 15 minutes
t o kill germs, viruses, mold,
mildew, bacteria, pollen, pet
dander, ozone, odors, dust mite
allergens and thousands of oth-
er organic and inorganic pollu-
tants.
Anumber of other air puri-
fiers produce harmful ozone to
clean the air, but ozone has
been found to decrease lung
function, aggravate asthma,
create shortness of breath and
even cause cancer. Computers,
printers, and other electronics
also produce ozone.
The EdenPURE

Air Puri-
fier by AirFree

does NOT
produce any harmful ozone
and the Swedish National Test-
ing and Research Institute
shows that the AirFree

tech-
nology in the EdenPURE

by
Air Free

destroys 26% of
ozone in the air!
And the unit emits NO
sound at all, so you can have
one in your bedroom without
disturbing your sleep, leading
to a good nights rest.
Q. Is the EdenPURE

by
AirFree

air purification
technology proven to work?
A. Yes. Over 20 indepen-
dent, scientific tests from
around the world prove the
AirFree

technology inside
the EdenPURE

by AirFree

removes 99.9%of pollutants.


Imagine what the Eden-
PURE

Air Purifiers by Air-


Free

can do for you and your


familys health. You will feel
physically and mentally better
because you will have no pol-
lutants in the air that make you
feel run down and sick.
Q. Is it true other air pu-
rifiers actually cost hundreds
of dollars in upkeep every
year?
A. Yes. HepaFilters can
cost up to $289.95 and UV
lightbulbs can cost up to
$232.88 per bulb. But the
EdenPURE

Air Purifiers by
AirFree

have NOfilters or UV
lightbulbs to replace, saving
you up to $289.95 every year!
And when a regular air pu-
rifier filter isnt replaced or
cleaned properly, it releases all
the harmful things it just re-
moved back into the air, infect-
ing you and your family.
Other popular but inferior
air purifiers sell for $700.00 to
over $1,000.00. You can get
this superior air purifier for
much less.

Associated Press
OKLAHOMA CITY
Its a pivotal time in the
history of their sport and
the members of the U.S.
team at the eighth World
Cup of Softball are aware
of that.
The World Cup, which
will begin today at ASA
Hall of Fame Stadium,
also will include teams
from Canada, Australia,
Japan and Puerto Rico.
It will be one of the last
major international soft-
ball events before the
International Olympic
Committee meets in
Buenos Aires, Argentina,
from Sept. 7-10.
During that meeting,
either wrestling, squash
or softball/baseball will
be added to the program
for the 2020 Olympics.
So is this week an oppor-
tunity to make a positive
impression on the IOC
voters?
I think were always
trying to show the world
that softball is a great
sport and deserves to be
back in the Olympics,
said U.S. inelder Lauren
Chamberlain, who starred
for Oklahoma during
the Sooners run to the
NCAA title this spring.
Were just staying posi-
tive about the whole
thing. There are a ton of
little girls out there who
want the same thing.
Fellow inelder Lauren
Gibson, the Southeastern
Conference player of the
year at Tennessee, echoed
that sentiment.
It would be really
good to get it back, said
Gibson, whos starting
her third year on the U.S.
squad. Obviously, weve
all dreamed about being
in the Olympics. That was
one of our goals when
we were little. Were just
going to out and work
hard and have fun and
hopefully showcase soft-
ball so that people will
want to put it back into
the Olympics. Thats what
were trying to do.
Softball made its
Olympic debut in 1996
in Atlanta. The U.S. won
the gold medal that year,
then again in 2000 in
Sydney and in 2004 in
Athens. Japan beat the
U.S. for the gold in 2008
in Beijing, after the IOC
voted in July 2005 to drop
softball (and baseball)
from the Olympics.
Ever since, efforts have
been ongoing to have
the IOC reconsider its
decision. Most recently,
softball and baseball
international federations
have paired together, g-
uring their sports stood
a better chance of jointly
regaining Olympic sta-
tus instead of competing
against each other.
One by-product of the
absence of softball from
the Olympics is that
international events like
the World Cup - rst held
in 2005 - have gained an
added importance in the
sport. After nishing
second behind Japan in
2005, the U.S. has won
every World Cup played
since.
The Americans have
posted a 39-4 record in
World Cup play, losing
only to Canada and Japan
in 2005 and Canada in
2010 and 2011. But while
the U.S. has the worlds
most consistent national
team, it isnt invincible.
In their last meeting
during the 2012 World
Championships, Japan
beat the U.S. 2-1 in 10
innings for the title.
Its always gold
or bust for us, said
Valerie Arioto, a former
California star also enter-
ing her third year on
the U.S. squad. Were
always looking at the gold
medal. Last year was a
little disappointing, but
I think the day after (the
loss), we were ready to
compete again and ready
to get back at it and get
that gold medal. Nothing
is going to stop us. Were
a young team and that
might work to our advan-
tage.

Clock running out
on loan talks
The defeat of a student loan bill in
the Senate on Wednesday clears the
way for fresh negotiations to restore
lower rates, but lawmakers are racing
the clock before millions of students
return to campus next month to nd
borrowing terms twice as high as
when school let out.
Republicans and a few Democrats
blocked a White House-backed pro-
posal that would have restored 3.4
percent interest rates on subsidized
Stafford loans for one more year. The
failed stopgap measure was designed
to give lawmakers time to take up
comprehensive college affordabil-
ity legislation and dodge 6.8 percent
interest rates on new loans.
Fed ofcials cant
agree
Federal Reserve ofcials seem far
from a consensus on the question
thats consumed investors for months:
When will the Fed slow its bond
purchases, which have fueled spend-
ing, supported economic growth,
driven up stocks and kept mortgage
rates near record lows?
Minutes of their June policy meet-
ing show many members felt the job
markets improvement would have to
be sustained before the Fed would
scale back its bond purchases.
And many thought the purchases
should extend into 2014, according to
a summary of economic forecasts that
are released with the minutes.
Vintage Apple
goes for nearly
$388,000
An original Apple computer from
1976 has sold at auction for nearly
$388,000.
Known as the Apple 1, it was one of
the rst Apple computers ever built.
It sold Monday for $387,750 at a
Christies online-only auction. Bolaf,
an Italian collections company, says
in a statement that it bought the com-
puter. The seller was a retired school
psychologist from Sacramento, Calif.
Vintage Apple products have
become a hot item since Steve Jobs
death in October 2011. Jobs joined
forces with Steve Wozniak to build
computer prototypes in a California
garage, and Wozniak built the Apple
1.
Another Apple 1 was sold in May
for a record $671,400 by a German
auction house. It broke a record of
$640,000 set in November.

Ground broken for long-simmering I-81 project
Judge: Apple conspired to raise e-book prices
Larry neumeister
Associated Press
NEW YORK Apple Inc. broke antitrust laws
and conspired with publishers to raise electronic
book prices signicantly in spring 2010, a federal
judge ruled Wednesday, citing compelling evi-
dence from the words of the late Steve Jobs.
U.S. District Judge Denise Cote said Apple knew
that no publisher could risk acting alone to try to
eliminate Amazon.coms $9.99 price for the most
popular e-books so it created a mechanism and
environment that enabled them to act together in a
matter of weeks to eliminate all retail price compe-
tition for their e-books.
Apple seized the moment and brilliantly played
its hand, Cote said. She wrote that Apples deals
with publishers caused some e-book prices to rise
50 percent or more virtually overnight.
The Manhattan jurist, who did not determine
damages, said the evidence was overwhelming
that Apple knew of the unlawful aims of the con-
spiracy and joined the conspiracy with the specic
intent to help it succeed.
Her decision was not surprising, since she had
urged Apple to settle before trial and said the com-
pany had only a slimchance of winning. Government
ofcials and industry experts have said e-book pric-
es have declined and stabilized since rising after
Apple entered the market.
Cote identied ve trial witnesses as notewor-
thy for their lack of credibility, including Eddy
Cue, a top Apple executive described as Jobs right-
hand man.
Apple spokesman Tom Neumayr said the
Cupertino, Calif.-based company will appeal.
Apple did not conspire to x e-book pricing and
we will continue to ght against these false accusa-
tions, he said. Weve done nothing wrong.
Assistant Attorney General Bill Baer called the
ruling a victory for millions of consumers who
choose to read books electronically.
He said the judge agreed with the Justice
Department and 33 state attorneys general that
executives at the highest levels of Apple orchestrat-
ed a conspiracy with ve major publishers.
Through todays court decision and previous
settlements with ve major publishers, consumers
are again beneting from retail price competition
and paying less for their e-books, he said.
The publishers that had settled were Hachette,
HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster, Holtzbrinck
Publishers, doing business as Macmillan, and The
Penguin Publishing Co. Ltd., doing business as
Penguin Group.
In her ruling, Cote said the conspiracy harmed
consumers in numerous ways.
She said some had to pay more for e-books, others
bought a cheaper e-book rather than the one they
preferred to purchase and others deferred a pur-
chase altogether rather than pay the higher price.
Although she acknowledged that many of Apples
practices in its dealing with publishers would indi-
vidually be legal, Cote said they collectively fur-
thered the goal of raising e-book prices across the
board.

DUPONT Ofcials broke ground
Wednesday on a multi-phased, $41.9
million project that will bring the rst
trafc roundabouts to Luzerne County,
among other things.
When complete, possibly by late
2015, the work will reshape the Avoca
interchanges off I-81, open up a por-
tion of the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton
International Airport property for
development and provide easier access
for vehicles from an industrial park to
and from the interstate that in turn will
alleviate congestion on Duponts thor-
oughfares.
Pennsy Supply Inc., of Annville
will perform the work that required
the cooperation and approval of the
Federal Aviation Administration, the
airports Bi-County Board of Directors,
PennDOT and local municipalities.
Charlie Adonizio, the immediate
past president of the Greater Pittston
Chamber of Commerce, said once
completed, the project will entice
companies to take a closer look at
becoming tenants in the Grimes
Industrial Park and it will bring jobs
and additional tax base to Greater
Pittston.
This will be the catalyst, Adonizio
said.
Its a catalyst thats long been prom-
ised. Back in the late 1980s the portion
of the project connecting the industrial
park to I-81 through the airport was
rst suggested. Rosemary Dessoye,
now the chambers director, remem-
bers sending out letters to tenants
of what was then called the East ern
Distribution Center, now the Grimes
Industrial Park, on her rst day of
work, Nov. 1, 1989. The letters were
seeking letters of support for the proj-
ect.
The cost was just too high and the
project lingered on the back burner as
other projects in the region, including
the Casey Highway in Lackawanna
County, proceeded.
But it picked up steamin recent years
thanks to State Rep. Mike Carroll,
D-Avoca. Once the I-81 interchange
was coupled with the connector road
project, it began to gain traction in a
hurry.
Carroll, who received praise from
multiple ofcials Wednesday during
the groundbreaking, called the project
a great, great day for Greater Pittston
and a great, great day for Lackawanna
and Luzerne counties.
Its an excellent improvement for
Northeastern Pennsylvanias transpor-
tation and infrastructure network,
said George Roberts, the executive for
PennDOTs District 4 in Dunmore.
Oil prices jump 2 percent on sharp decline in US supplies
The Associated Press
NEW YORK The price of oil
rose nearly 2 percent Wednesday as
the U.S. government reported another
steep decline in the nations supplies
of oil and gasoline.
By late morning, benchmark crude
for August delivery was up $1.94, or
1.9 percent, to $105.47 a barrel on the
New York Mercantile Exchange.
Oil has risen about $12 a barrel, or
13 percent, in the past two weeks to
the highest level since early May of
last year. The initial catalyst was tur-
moil in Egypt. The country controls
the Suez Canal, a critical channel for
oil and gas shipments from the Middle
East. But now oil is rising on signs
of increased demand in the U.S., the
largest consumer of oil and gasoline.
Rising oil prices have reversed a
steady decline in the price U.S. driv-
ers pay at the pump. The average
price for a gallon of gas rose 2 cents
to $3.50. Thats the biggest one-day
increase since May 18. The price is
still 14 cents cheaper than a month
ago.
The government reported that
crude supplies declined by 9.9 mil-
lion barrels in the week ended July 5,
more than twice the decline expected
by analysts. Gasoline supplies were
expected to rise, but instead fell by
2.6 million barrels.
In the past two weeks, oil supplies
have dropped 20.2 million barrels,
while gasoline supplies have fallen 4.3
million barrels.
At 373.9 million barrels, the nations
oil supplies are 1.1 percent below year-
ago levels, the Energy Departments
Energy Information Administration
said in its weekly report.
The drop in supplies suggests stron-
ger demand and underlines the signs
of economic recovery shown in last
weeks stronger-than-expected U.S.
hiring report.
A report from The Organization of
Petroleum Exporting Countries fore-
casting rising global demand in 2014
also helped boost prices.
The Vienna-based group said it
expected additional global demand
to reach 1 million barrels a day next
year, compared to an annual increase
of around 800,000 barrels a day in
2013.

Little hands can have a heyday on an artfully placed chalkboard surface.
Alexandria Abramian
The Orange County Register
W
eve seen them everywhere, from wine bars
to glossy decorating magazines: those chalk-
board walls that bring in a bit of retro chic
and function as a place to make lists, air your daily
afrmations or doodle to your hearts content.
Best of all, it can all be erased and made ready for
new creations in a matter of seconds.
For adventurous DIYers, getting the chalkboard wall
right requires a few lessons in skill, materials and self-
control. Fullerton-based husband and wife design team
Erin and Dan Benedict of Benedict August ( www.
benedictaugust.com ) have aced the application for
many clients, using chalkboard walls everywhere from
kitchens to nurseries.
Here are their rules for taking the trend out of the
classroom:
Raw materials: Rust-Oleums chalkboard paint
from Home Depot works well. Its best to apply with
foam rollers. They hold less paint than other rollers but
give you a smoother nish.
Keep it clean: Take special care to make sure the
wall is smooth. Any divots will collect chalk dust. So
take extra care in prep.
Worth the wait: Wait the full four hours between
coats, even if it feels dry to the touch before. And keep
in mind it usually takes about four coats of paint to get
a really even chalkboard nish.
Let it go: Remember that the wall will never look
for chalkboard walls

So Ive started brushing
my daughters hair.
Shes 7. Its time.
Some would argue its
past time. Some would
argue she has spent the
better part of her life look-
ing rather unkempt.
I would reply with one
word: Jessie.
Jessie is the perfect-
ly coiffed titular star
of the Disney Channel
show about a 19-year-old
Manhattan nanny. Shes
quick with the acerbic
one-liners, bewildered by
her life and wracked with
insecurities about boys
and accessories.
Her hair, though, is
fantastic. As fantastic as
Londons from The Suite
Life on Deck and CeCes
from Shake It Up and
Allys from Austin and
Ally.
I know all about their
hair because my daughter
loves their shows with the
same level of zeal that I
devote to hating them.
The Disney princesses
are always coming in for
parental ack theyre
too doe-eyed, too empty-
headed, too prince-reli-
ant. But the princesses
are childs play. They
may be devoid of career
ambitions, but at least
they treat people well.
(Animated people, but
still.)
Disneys tween and
teen characters, packaged
for elementary-schoolers,
are wretched. Many of
them are mocking and
contemptuous and petty,
and theyve saturated the
marketplace so that even
if you limit screen-time
exposure, they and their
hair will still call out to
your kid from clothing
lines and lunchboxes and
stickers at the pediatri-
cians ofce.
What does all this have
to do with brushing my
daughters hair?
Until recently, she could
not be bothered. Washing
her hair was torture.
Brushing it was a waste of
her time. She eyed bows
with the same disdain she
directs at tomatoes.
I loved this. I loved that
she approached birth-
day parties and spring
musicals and rst days of
school with nary a glance
toward her hair.
Should we brush your
hair? Id ask, usually on
our way out the door.

York Daily Record
When Heather Robinson, a single mom, was severely injured
in a car crash in November 2010, her parents took care of her
13-month-old son, Christian. Without their help, she said, she
would have had to put him up for adoption.
They 100 percent took care of me and my son, Robinson
said.
Betsy Robinson, 68, and her husband, Russell, 69, cared for
their daughter and grandson for about two years in their Lower
Chanceford Township home.
I cant imagine not doing that, Betsy said.
Their time together forged a special bond. Even though
Heather and Christian now live in Alexandria, Va., they visit at
least every other week.
I miss him, Russell said.
While the Robinsons situation was partly fueled by need,
more and more grandparents are getting involved in their grand-
childrens lives. And their involvement extends beyond the holi-
days and usual family functions.
In fact, todays grandparents provide more care, money and
advice to grandchildren than they ever have, according to a
2012 AARP survey of 1,904 grandparents.
Becky Gillan, AARP senior vice president of research and
strategic analysis, said in some cases, grandparents are assum-
ing the role of primary caregivers.
Its not just taking the grandkids to their grandparents
place for Sunday brunch anymore, she said. Grandparents are
actively involved on a daily basis. They are involved nancially
helping with medical, education, dental expenses.
Gillan said grandparents indicate that its important for them
to spend money on and even spoil their grandchildren.
During the recession, the one thing grandparents didnt cut
back on was their grandkids, Gillan said.
Jean Koppen, director and research fellow with AARP, said
research also showed that Grandpa is more involved than he
ever was in playtime with the grandkids.
The boomers have grown up in a culture where there is less
of a gender role, Koppen said. Grandpa missed out when his
children were young, but he is not going to lose this second
chance.
Grandparents are making grandchildren more of a priority
and sharing responsibilities with parents.
They provide day care and want grandchildren to stay close:
More than one in 10 grandparents surveyed said they provide
day-care services while parents are working. Also, about seven
in 10 grandparents live within 50 miles of their closest grand-
children. More than one-third of the grandparents surveyed
indicated that their grandchildren had lived with them for more
than ve years.
Kelly Funke, 48, baby-sits both of her grandchildren, Brynn
Elicker, 2, and Rylan DeNunzio, 1. She baby-sits Brynn three
days a week and Rylan whenever his parents are out of town.
Baby-sitting is such a priority for Funke, she sometimes takes
vacation time from work to do it.
I say all of this with a smile, Funke said. Im glad that Im
able to do that.
She never wants her grandchildren to move away, because she
said she loves seeing them weekly.
I absolutely want them to stay close, Funke said. I thought
when my daughter moved to Palmyra, it was the end of the
world.
Brynn lives 10 minutes away,and Rylan lives an hour away.
Live-in grands
Some grandparents go one step further and offer their home
to their grandkids, as Mark Foreman of Dover Township did.
When Foremans stepson fell on hard times, Foreman took him
in along with his stepsons 6-year-old son Michael Hagarman,
his stepsons ancee and her two children.
Because Foreman, who works as a contractor with the govern-
ment, travels a lot for work, Foreman told his stepson that he
could stay at his place for as long as he needed.
They have the run of the place, Foreman, 56, said. I help

SPECIAL ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE 2013 WORLD RESERVE MONETARY EXCHANGE INC. 8000 FREEDOM AVE., N. CANTON OH 44720
WILKES-BARRE AREA RESIDENTS CASH IN: Pictured above and protected by armed guards are the Overstuffed Money Bags containing 10 indi-
vidual Vault Bags full of money that everyone is trying to get. Thats because each Vault Bag is known to contain over 100 U.S. Govt issued coins some
dating back to the early 1900s.
PENNSYLVANIA - The phone lines are ring-
ing off the hook.
Thats because for the next 2 days Vault Bags
containing valuable U.S. Govt issued coins are
actually being handed over to Wilkes-Barre
area residents who find their zip code listed in
todays publication.
Now that the bags of money are up for grabs
Pennsylvania residents are claiming as many
as they can get before theyre all gone. Thats
because after the Vault Bags were loaded with
over 100 U.S. Govt issued coins the bags were
sealed for good. But, we do know that some of
the coins date clear back to the early 1900s, in-
cluding: Silver, scarce, highly collectible, and
currently circulating U.S. Govt issued nickels,
dimes and quarter dollars, so theres no telling
what youll find until you sort through all the
coins, said Timothy J. Shissler, Chief Numis-
matist for the private World Reserve.
The only thing residents need to do is find
their zip code on the Distribution List printed
in todays publication. If their zip code is on the
list, they need to immediately call the National
Claim Hotline before the 2-day order deadline
ends.
Everyone who does is being given the 90%
pure Silver Walking Liberty coin for free just by
covering the Vault Bags each loaded with over
100 U.S. Govt issued coins for only
$
99 each as
long as they call before the deadline ends.
Since this advertising announcement cant
stop dealers and collectors from hoarding all
the valuable coins they can get their hands on,
the World Reserve had to set a strict limit of ten
Vault Bags per resident.
Coin values always fluctuate and there are
never any guarantees, but those who get in
on this now will be the really smart ones. Just
think what some of these coins could be worth
someday, said Shissler.
Each Vault Bag is loaded in part with high-
ly sought after valuable collector coins dating
clear back to the 1900s including a 90% pure
Silver Walking Liberty Half Dollar, an Eisen-
hower Dollar, some of the last ever minted U.S.
Dollars, Kennedy Half Dollars, Silver Mercu-
ry Dimes, rarely seen Liberty V Nickels, near-
ly 100 year old Buffalo Nickels and unsearched
currently circulating U.S. Govt issued nickels,
dimes and quarter dollars.
Were bracing for all the calls because there
are just hours left for residents to get the Silver
coins free, he said.
So, Wilkes-Barre area residents lucky enough
to find their zip code listed in todays publica-
tion need to immediately call the National Claim
Hotlines before the 2-day deadline ends to get
the Silver coins free. If lines are busy keep try-
ing, all calls will be answered.
LOADED WITH OVER 100 COINS: The
phone lines are ringing off the hook. Thats because
thousands of sealed Vault Bags each loaded with
over 100 U.S. Govt issued coins some dating back
to the early 1900s including: Silver, scarce, highly
collectible, and currently circulating coins are being
handed over to Wilkes-Barre area residents.

Who gets to claim the bags of money: Thousands of U.S. residents stand to miss the deadline to claim the money. Now Wilkes-
Barre area residents who find their zip code listed in todays publication and beat the 2-day deadline get to claim the bags of money for
themselves and keep all the U.S. Govt issued coins found inside.
I keep calling and cant get through: Thats because each Vault Bag is guaranteed to contain a free Silver Walking Liberty coin and
just that one coin alone could be worth up to $325 in collector value. So thousands of residents are calling to claim as many Vault Bags
as they can get before theyre all gone. In fact, since each Vault Bag fee has been reduced to just
$
99 nearly everyone is claiming at least
three bags. So if lines are busy keep trying, all calls will be answered.
How much are the Vault Bags worth: Coin values always fluctuate and there are never any guarantees, but heres why Pennsylvania
residents are claiming as many Vault Bags as they can get before theyre all gone. After the Vault Bags were loaded with over 100 U.S.
Govt issued coins including: Silver, scarce, highly collectible, and currently circulating U.S. Govt issued coins the bags were sealed for
good. But we do know that some of the coins date back to the early 1900s. That means theres no telling what youll find until you sort
through all the coins. So you better believe at just
$
99 the Vault Bag fee is a real steal since the free Silver Walking Liberty coin alone
could be worth between $15 to $325 in collector value.
Are the Silver Walking Liberty coins really Free: Yes. All Wilkes-Barre area residents who beat the 2-day deadline are instantly being
awarded a Silver Walking Liberty coin issued by the U.S. Govt between 1916-1947 free with each Vault Bag they claim.
Why is the Vault Bag fee so low: Because thousands of U.S. residents have missed the deadline to claim the money its being held
in limbo at the vaults of the World Reserve and it has to be moved out in the next 2 days. That means the money is up for grabs and now
any resident who finds their zip code on the Distribution List below gets to claim the bags of money for themselves and keep all the U.S.
Govt issued coins found inside. Each Vault Bag fee was set at
$
149, but residents who beat the 2-day deadline cover the reduced Vault
Bag fee of just
$
99 as long as they call the National Claim Hotline before the deadline ends at: 1-888-207-4579.

Nah, shed invariably
reply.
And that always felt like
a victory. Like she was
headed out to enjoy what-
ever we were about to
enjoy for the sheer experi-
ence. Not for the chance
to look cute in photos or
show off her headband.
Once we arrived, shed
always dive in with aban-
don not a moment
spent wondering if her
braids would come loose
or her curls would drop.
Disney
From page 1C
She was the antithesis
of Jessie. Now she wants
me to brush her hair.
Sometimes she brushes
it herself. The other day
she asked me to re-create
a hairstyle in an American
Girl magazine and didnt
bother hiding her con-
tempt for my pitiful ren-
dering.
Have the Disney gals
shiny cascades of thick,
lovely tresses tangled

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Legal
marijuana is making
my best friend stu-
pid, boring and insip-
id. Susan and I are
in our 50s and have
been best friends
off and on since
childhood. A decade ago, we started
taking better care of our friendship
because so few longtime friends were
still in our lives. Since then, I have
been careful not to be judgmental or
condescending because it was the
source of past friction.
Susan is a regular marijuana user,
which has sapped away all of her
ambition and curiosity. Even when
she isnt actually high, she lacks
the cleverness and mental acuity I
have always treasured about her.
Otherwise, her life is functional.
Shes in a good marriage, loves her
pets and enjoys her job. I think if I
said anything, it would cause a major
rift.
Should I just limit our time togeth-
er and accept this is how things
are going to be from now on? Im a
widow who has lost my parents and
others to illness. I have other friends
and family, but I dont want to lose
my old chum, even though being
around her is starting to make me
sad.
Friendship Going to Pot in
California
Dear FGTP: As people grow older,
long and well-established relation-
ships become more precious. But
much as we might wish otherwise,
relationships do not always remain
the same. Because you are no longer
receiving what you need from your
interactions with Susan, I agree you
may need to see her less often.
In light of your long relationship,
I dont think it would be offensive to
tell her you have noticed a change in
her and you miss the person she used
to be. However, are you absolutely
certain that what you have observed
is caused by marijuana? If youre not,
then consider sharing your observa-
tion with Susans husband, in case her
lack of sharpness could be the result
of another medication shes using or a
neurological problem.
Dear Abby: My husband and I have
been married for one year. Yesterday
I put all the pieces together and real-
ized hes been cheating on me.
I called the other woman, and af-
ter she regained her composure and
heard she is a mistress, she told me
everything. She gave me the answers
I desperately needed, and I am thank-
ful for her honesty and surpris-
ingly her compassion.
Now I need to move forward. I am
crushed, and even though he cant
explain why he cheated, I still want
to know why. He says hes going to
counseling, which is something I have
been begging him to do since I had a
miscarriage last summer.
Will he change? Or should I con-
tinue to pack the house and move on?
Crushed in Chicago
Dear Crushed: Much depends upon
the reason your husband started
cheating. If it was a way to avoid ex-
periencing the pain of the loss of the
baby, its possible that with counsel-
ing you can get beyond this.
I suggest you ask to be included in
one or more of the counseling ses-
sions. If he agrees, at least you will
know he is seeing a therapist. If not,
you will have to decide whether you
have had enough loss in one year, and
whether you have a future together.

memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box
447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
dont have to worry about your
trade secrets getting out. Even
if they did, others wouldnt know
what to do with them. Whats
relevant to you would be a lot of
work for others to get into.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You
used to have location envy, but
youre starting to realize that
you can connect with the world
you want to be a part of from
wherever you live right now. Use
the library and the Internet.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Youll
examine the elements that make
up your lifestyle. Its the people
you talk to, the pictures and
notes on your wall, the decor
and food. Bit by bit, youre build-
ing something beautiful.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Dont
be afraid to speak your true
opinion today, especially when
you sense that youre with a
kindred spirit. Youll likely say
the thing the other person has
always thought, too.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). A hand-
shake will convey secret mean-
ing. Beware of the one who turns
the shake so that the top of your
hand faces the ground and his is
on top. This dominating person
wont treat you as an equal.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Theres
wisdom in playing it cool, but not
so cool that you dont show emo-
tion. Showing your feelings, or
at least a glimpse of them, takes
confidence.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). By being
open to your wilder instincts,
you heighten the energy level
of everyone around you. But go
too far with this, and people get
jumpy.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Someone will always say that the
ship is sinking, but dont be too
quick to jump off. Show a little
faith in your vessel. The same
goes for your idea, project or
relationship.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Have you ever heard of deci-
sion fatigue? Youve felt it
every time you leave the grocery
store after a big shop. It drains
your willpower. Thats why fewer
options are better today.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Youve created a steady stream
of activity and joy or at least
you thought thats what it was
going to be. Now it may feel
more like a hectic schedule. Cut
back now. Take it easy.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). In
food, bitterness is made palat-
able by adding something sweet,
salty or sour. As for internal bit-
terness, salty or sour thoughts
wont balance it at all. Go for the
sweetness, and youll get a deli-
cious result.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Youve
let go of minor grudges and
resentments before, and now
youre in the same place all over
again. Should you forgive one
more time? No. Forgive a thou-
sand more times.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July 11). A
retreat in the next six months
will change your perspective and
help you earn big, too. Youll act
to improve your family dynamic
and influence your kin to lead
healthier lives. What you accom-
plish in September will put you
in the running for an award. Your
lucky numbers are: 4, 22, 19, 35
and 16.
