Packer Township wins court

ruling vs sludge dumping
The Commonwealth Court of
Pennsylvania ruled this week
against PA Attorney General
Thomas Corbett and in favor of
Packer Township—which has
banned corporate sewage sludge
spreading within their township.
In a lawsuit filed in August of
2009, Attorney General Corbett
claimed that Packer’s ordinance –
which bans corporations from land-
applying sewage sludge within the
township – violated Pennsylvania’s
“ACRE” law. Through that law, the
legislature has prohibited local gov-
ernments from regulating “normal
agricultural operations” and empow-
ers the Attorney General to sue
those municipalities. The lawsuit
against Packer is one of about a
dozen lawsuits filed by the Attorney
General’s office against ordinances
adopted by rural Pennsylvania com-
munities.
The Packer ordinance, adopted in
2008, bans corporate sludging with-
in the township, citing the dangers
that land-applied sewage sludge
poses to the community and the
natural environment. Recently,
Packer Township supervisors
Grover Gerhard and Tom Gerhard
attended a state rally in Harrisburg
that urged the legislature to over-
turn the “ACRE” law. Chairman of

suffered a heart attack. My
sister called 911 three times,
my brother-in-law Bill also
called. Gordie needed oxy-
gen. He was in severe pain.
He told my sister if an ambu-
lance did not come soon, he
would die. About a half hour
later an ambulance came –
not from White Haven, but
from Drums. For Gordie help
came, but too late.
The next day, I went down
to the ambulance building
and confronted Richard
Henning. He said they did not
have enough volunteers, they
couldn’t get anyone... The
paid ambulance crew, he
said, worked from 7 to 7. I
said, “Oh, so Gordie should
have waited until then to have
a heart attack.” Mr. Henning
then said; Did I know how
many people the ambulance
saved over the years. Well,
Mr. Henning, perhaps you
should tell my heartbroken
sister about all the saved
people - because Gordie was
not one of them.
I’m sorry, but there is no
excuse that a man who lived
a stone’s throw away from the
ambulance bldg., had an
ambulance card, had to wait
a half-hour for an ambulance.
When you are having a heart
attack, every second counts.
God Bless my dear friend
Gordie. He deserved better.
Sincerely,
Wanda Walb-Gower

Seth’s Sightings by Seth Isenberg
It is hard to believe that
during a normal winter this
week would be blessed with
40° highs, when weʼve been
experiencing 60°+ days—
springtime in winter. As of
Saturday, it has become
actual springtime, and the
warm weather combined
with longer evenings is just
so sweet.
Our yard celebrated this
warm spell by popping up
crocuses. For a few days we
had pale blue as well as
deep purple flowers. By
Sunday, only the purple ones
remained.
Our forsythia is now look-
ing like it will bud, but that
will depend on this weekʼs
cooler weather.
The warm days have
allowed us to open up some
windows in our house, which
not only lets fresh air in, but
also bird songs. There seem
to be a lot of happy birds in
our corner of the Poconos.
Just this morning, I sighted a
female cardinal and believe
it to be half of a pair that reg-
ularly nests in the trees
around our house.
Our yellow lab, Chad, is
coming into spring in his
usual way, shedding near to
the point of molting. On
Sunday I gave him a thor-
ough brushing that left a
substantial amount of hair

Packerʼs supervisors Tom
Gerhard vowed that the
supervisors would continue
to fight the state, declaring
that “weʼre in this to the bitter
end – we believe that the
stateʼs override of our right to
govern ourselves in our own
community violates our con-
stitutional right to self-gov-
ernment. Weʼre going to
defend local control...We feel
we have the right to self-gov-
ernment. I was elected by
Packer Township citizens to
represent them. I am not
intimidated by the Attorney
General. I am not intimidated
by the legislature. I am look-
ing out for our township and
its citizens.”

Friday night Ruth and I
joined people attending an
event in support of United
Way held in the performance
hall at Pocono Brewing
Company in Swiftwater. En-
tertainment was the Rock &
Roll Dinosaurs, a group of
musicians made up mostly of
staff and and administrators
from the Pocono Mountain
School District. Their play list
was late 60s and 1970s
rock, just what we listen to
on the internet when weʼre
home. This was fun, and the
organizer of the event is
hoping for more like it in the
future.
Our Saturday was maxed
out with a meeting followed
by a fund-raising soup con-
test that we enjoyed judging
(great soups, slightly burnt
tongue), and ending with a
tour of the historic Train-
works restoration project in
Weatherly. We even had
time to fit in a movie when
we got home.
In between work, we took
the dogs for a short hike up
Old Stage Trail from the
Albrightsville side into Hick-
ory Run State Park. As we
got out of our van, we sight-
ed a large, red-tailed hawk,
or more exactly, it had sight-

It then decided to take flight,
and as it circled higher and
then flew off, I believe it
made its feelings known,
shrieking loudly.
We were not the only
humans in that area during
that time. We passed two
men on a competition hike,
and then later an area cou-
ple. They shared a story
about a nesting hawk that
had become protective, and
dived at hikers who got too
near her nest at Boulder
Field last year. Given the
size of the hawk that we saw,
that would be intimidating.
We hiked in to the stream
crossing at the Boulder Field
Trail, where somehow the
dogs found a place deep
enough for both to swim, or
at least get wet. The trail
showed signs of the effects
of the heavy rains, and
heavy winds. It was a beauti-
ful day for a longer walk, but
our schedule didnʼt permit it.
For that matter, it was the
same on Sunday, when weʼd
gone shopping, and then
needed to meet someone in
Tannersville. Another hike
was in our plans, but time
got away from us. I knew of
a rail trail just off of Route
309 south of Tamaqua that
we hadnʼt been on, so we
found an entry near the old
Leibyʼs Restaurant, then fol-
lowed the path for about a
half mile on what looked like

which fortunately our dogs
heeded our commands to
stay away from. Again, it was
too nice of a day for too short

at how these super-athletes
balance their schooling with
the schedule that a national

moved on to successful
careers around the basket-

steaks. So on Sunday even-
ing, after our errands, we
headed to Tannersville.
We were seated at a booth
in the main bar room. Most
places, I donʼt like sitting in
the bar; itʼs often noisy and
crowded. But at Smugglerʼs
Cove, the
Dining Out
bar has
energy, but
because of
its layout,
you still feel as though youʼre
having a private dining expe-
rience.
Our waitress was quick to
the table with the extensive
menus, and to take our drink
orders. I asked for a glass of
Pinot Noir, Blackstone, $8.
Seth had a glass of unsweet-
ened iced tea, $2.25 refill-
able; his only complaint was
a lack of Sweet ʻnʼ Low; he
thought the Splenda had an
after-taste.
The Surf & Turf Celebra-
tion is an excellent value at
$18.95. There are five choic-
es of a single item, and four
surf and turf combinations.
Seth chose one of the lat-
ter—an eight-ounce sirloin
with a half lobster. Crabmeat
stuffing was free, so he add-
ed that, along with sweet
potato fries and the salad
bar.
I chose one of the premi-
um catches of the day, fresh
Florida pompano, $22.95. I
ordered it grilled, with mango
salsa on the side, and also

Named to Camp Cadet board
John L. Augustine III, of
Mountain Top, was recently
named to the PA State Po-
lice—Camp Cadet Board,
Troop “P” Wyoming.
The Troop P Camp Cadet
Program is a one-week law
enforcement program for
youth, both male and female,
developed by and coordinat-
ed through Troop P—Wyom-
ing, Pennsylvania State Po-
lice. The overall activities are
administered by State Police
personnel working in part-
nership with a volunteer
community board.
In addition to serving on
the board, John is also re-
sponsible for the design and
maintenance of the Camp
Cadet website. “John has
been a tremendous asset to
the board by bringing our
website up to date and help-
ing to attract new candidates
as well as business spon-
sors,” said PA State Police
Trooper Thomas Kelly, camp
director.
Donations from area busi-
nesses and private individu-
als offset the cost of sending
a child to camp for the one-
week, law enforcement
academy experience. Camp
Cadet is not a corrections
type program, it is an oppor-
tunity for youth to see what
resources go into police sci-

Local quilters celebrate National Quilting Day
The National Quilting As-
sociation began sponsoring
National Quilting Day with a
resolution passed by its
members attending the 22nd
Annual Show in Lincoln, Ne-
braska, in June 1991. The
third Saturday in March is
officially designated as Na-
tional Quilting Day.
Quilting…What is quilting?
As stated in Britannica it is
a “process of stitching to-
gether two layers of fabric,
usually with a soft, thick sub-
stance placed between
them. The layer of wool, cot-
ton, or other stuffing pro-
vides insulation; the stitching
keeps the stuffing evenly dis-
tributed and also provides
opportunity for artistic ex-
pression. Quilting has long
been used for clothing in
many parts of the world,
especially in the Far and
Middle East and the Muslim
regions of Africa. It reached
its fullest development in the
U.S., where it was at first
popularly used for petticoats
and comforters. By the end
of the 18th century the U.S.
quilt had distinctive features,
such as colored fabric sewn
on the outer layers (appli-
qué) and stitching that echo-

A quilt, to its owner, is a
feeling of warmth, comfort
and a touch of home. Have
you ever wondered why your
quilt has the colors or fabrics
and pattern that make it
come to life? A quiltersʼ love
of the craft allows them to
pull all expression of them-
selves from deep within and
create a one of a kind beau-
ty. Fabrics along with a pat-
tern are the expressive tools
needed to complete that
quilt. Interpretation of the
colors and pattern of the fab-
ric truly has its own meaning
to each quilter. The end
result is a love of the craft.
Quilts have been made and
passed on for generations,
therefore giving that touch of
home, warmth and comfort.
Locally, the craft of quilting
is very much practiced by
the Cranberry Quilters Guild.
The guild has over 50 mem-
bers and is very active within
the community. In the past
year, cool ties were made for
our troops in Iraq and
Afghanistan. Baby quilts
were donated to the families

Veterans’ Corner
I normally after my main
topic host questions that our
readers e-mail or ask me
about. With the day ap-
proaching, I think the Ques-
tion of the week earned its
way to the top.
QUESTION OF THE
WEEK-What is VE Day?
VE DAY, May 8 1945-You
might not have heard of this
holiday, as it is not celebrat-
ed in some parts of the
world. But it is an important
holiday to Europeans and
many other nations.
To the millions who died
and suffered, to the be-
reaved families and to the
many of the too soon forgot-
ten and overlooked from our
own home town, I am sure
VE and later VJ day still hold
to their hearts and minds, a
true day when again we
would still have our freedom.
As a child growing up in the
shadow of post World War II,
not many words were shared
with family. The war that had
an effect on every family and
citizen of the United States
had ended in victory. The
incomprehensible fact that
three Axis powers (Germany,
Japan and Italy) would not
be marching down our main
streets was now a reality.
Reality back then could not
be surmised today, little
things we take for granted
like only using a teabag
once, the ability to go to the
market and buy two whole
pounds of butter if you want-
ed and the clerk at the meat
counter not asking for your
card before you could put
food before your family.

“Victory in Europe!” “The
War Has Ended!” “It’s Over!”
were the cries throughout
the free world, London,
Paris, New York City and
throughout the land, the bells
rang, whistles tooted and
everyone celebrated.
A big difference is that the
war was here, at home and
in your school, where you
worked and even in church
on Sunday. U-Boats off our
coast, food and material
shortages, balloon fire-
bombs sent from Japan
London Daily Mirror
May 8, 1945.
killing families in our Midwest
as they sat to supper saying
grace and a incendiary bomb
from Japan reaching its pre-
determined distance fell from
the sky on the farm house
killing an entire family. Yes,
WWII was on our doorstep
unlike later wars of Korea,
Vietnam, our expeditionary
wars, Gulf war and our cur-
rent conflicts. Not until re-
cently, were the members of
the civilian population in dan-
ger, danger from the hands
of terrorists.
In honor and remem-
brance of the time of turmoil
and triumph, I am going to
write a little about those
days, days that some re-
member, days that many of
us only heard about, but
days that all should know
about and understand. In
Europe, the Nazisʼ unstop-
pable war machine beat
itself up, mostly from within
and mostly by its creator,
Adolf Hitler. Hitler was so
harmful to winning WWII, by
1943 all assassination plans
by the Allied nations were
stopped. Hitler in the end
would make the decisions
that greatly enabled our
great military to put an end to
Nazi Germany. Over-confi-
dent, he did now allow his
“wonder weapons” to be pro-
duced or used until it was too
late. Had he listened to his
generals and admirals, WWII
would have had a much dif-
ferent and devastating end-
ing. Over the next weeks, I
will present to you some of
the futuristic weapons of
WWII. It is well that Hitler
by John Kearns
was flawed into thinking it
was over in 1941, the wea-
pons that would have made
a difference sat in hangers,
shipyards, munitions facto-
ries and on blueprints. All the
time they could have been in
the hands of the military.
GERMANY, 1945: The
propeller driven P-51 mus-
tang, the very best we had to
offer at the time was proven
to be superior to anything the
Allies or the warring Axis
powers possessed. Its
young pilot confident that if
he did his job, he and his air-
craft were invincible from
anything but the dreaded far
reaching flak from the well-
known 88s. The B-17 bomb-
ers he was assigned to es-
cort and protect below him
droned on toward the Ger-
man industrial targets deep
within the Fatherland.
To many, the war was won,
to others still wary of the
sudden appearance of the
King Tiger Tank at the Battle
of the Bulge, questions
remained. While premature
celebrations of victory were
becoming common, many
military members in high
command were becoming
cautious. There was good
reason; Germany still had
many secrets yet to unfold. 
 lenge, even our own airmen
The escorting P-51ʼs pilot
caught a “glint” approaching
the bomber formation and
took immediate action, in-
creasing power, he then
pushed his stick to dive and
bank to intercept the ap-
proaching diamond in the
sky. Now confirmed it was an
enemy aircraft, he alerted his
fellow pilots, dropped his
tanks and nosed in at the
approaching aircraft. The
BF-109 German fighter was
an incredible aircraft, but the
P-51 was well above what
ever the BF could dish out.
Calculating the angle of
intercept, the pilot gauged he
had plenty of time to inter-
cept and engage before the
fighter got to the laboring
bomber formation. (Keep in
mind all this is happening in
mere seconds, not minutes.)
The pilot thought as he
THE JOURNAL-HERALD, THURSDAY, MARCH 25, 2010—PAGE B5
watched in a high speed dive
that the angle was supposed
to be decreasing, in a dive
and with the far superior
speed of the Mustang, and
given the bogie was on a
level flight approach he
should be closing, not open-
ing. Again looking at his tar-
get, it was different. Now
realizing he lost his chance
for interception, he looked
closely at the aircraft. It did
not have the standard
straight monoplane wings of
the BF 109; these were
swept back like a bird of prey
in a dive. He could now see
the cannon fire from the
nose, a practice long given
up because of the need to
synchronize between the
propeller revolutions and
each round fired to prevent
shooting off your own pro-
peller.
Then as the B-17 burst
into flame, the aircraft was
gone and so was the aircraft
that shot it down. Where did
it go? He clicked his mike to
his fellow pilots and asked,
What the heck was that?
Many unprintable replies
came back, a whole flight of
superior American Fighters
and one darn Nazi snuck in
and shot down a bomber.
It would be a few more
weeks before it was known
what the heck that was,
when they realized it, though
brave and up to the chal-
got a shiver (note: a fighter
pilot will never admit they got
a shiver). It was the German
ME-262, the worldʼs first
operational fighter jet.
Now pause a moment, this
is 1945, there are no such
things as jets. So the world
outside Nazi Germany
thought. The fighter was on
the table before WWII start-
ed, in 1941, it was flown with
a piston engaging to test the
airframe. In 1942 the first
ever ME-262 fighter Jet took
to the skies in successful
flight exceeding all expecta-
tions and was ready for pro-
duction.
Amazingly, Adolf Hitler,
unimpressed, scrapped the
project in favor of more fight-
ers at the time already win-
ning the war in Europe. The
ME-262 sat on the shelf until
Germany realized the war
was being lost. Then in late
1943, they revived the proj-
ect. It seemed the worldʼs
first and foremost fighter air-
craft would dominate the
skies winning back air supe-
riority.
Again Hitler intervened,
with all the exhausting work
and innovation to produce
the worldʼs best fighter, Hitler
decreed it would be flown as
a Bomber. This delayed any
chance of regaining an edge.
All operational jets would be
detailed to carry bombs.
What might have changed
the outcome of WWII Europe
if used in 1942 and mass-
produced, now faded into
history.
In an interview with Tim
Frable of Weatherly, Tim like
many pilots was unaware of
the advent of the fighter until
after the war. Some say it
was hushed up to not cause
concern among the Allied
pilots. In reflection, P-51
fighter pilot Frable noted, “I
was not scared of it, it may
have caused concern if it
came in unseen, knowing it
was approaching though, the
Mustang would quickly out
maneuver and place me in a
firing position.”
Messerschmitt Me 262A at
the National Museum of
the USAF.
Following WWII, all re-
maining ME-262s were
taken by the Allies and by
Korea in 1951 America had
its own jet fighter, the Sabre.
More confusing was that the
Russian-supplied North
identical in the air and it was
difficult for both Korean and
American pilots to tell friend
from foe. Below the ME 262
and P-51 in original WWII
paint schemes.
The ME-262 armament
was impressive,
Guns: 4 × 30 mm MK 108
cannons (A-2a: two can-
nons)
Rockets: 24 × 55 mm (2.2
in) R4M rockets
Bombs: 2 × 250 kg (551
lb) bombs or 2 × 500 kg
(1,102 lb) bombs (A-2a only)
The P-51 was also impres-
sive sporting:
6× 0.50 caliber (12.7mm)
M2 Browning machine guns
with 1,880 total rounds (400
rounds for each on the inner
pair, and 270 rounds for
each of the outer two pair)
2× hardpoints for up to
2,000 lb (907 kg) of bombs
10× 5.0 in (127 mm) rock-
ets
Next Week: In WWI, a
submarine was nothing more
than a warship that could
temporarily go underwater. It
had to resurface often to
recharge batteries and
replenish used-up oxygen.
This made it easy prey to air-
craft and rendered it eventu-
ally ineffective. Nazi Ger-
many had an answer as
early as 1940, the type XXI
and the Walther Engine.

THE SLY ON
NCAA Tournament has provided
plenty of March Madness
by Steve Stallone
Sports Editor
Iʼm probably not alone
when I say my NCAA Menʼs
Basketball Tournament
brackets look like more like a
test paper from my days in
high school biology class:
Plenty of X marks and an
abundance of red ink!
Like biology, narrowing the
field of 65 is an exact sci-
ence, you know. After all, I
spent a couple of hours mak-
ing my picks this year, refer-
ring to my USA Today pull-
out guide and studying
everything from matchups
and tendancies, to stats and
players in order to figure out
my Final Four and the even-
tual national champion. Four
days into the tournament, I
learned that unless you con-
ferred with Nostradamus or
sought out divine interven-
tion, you didnʼt have a prayer
in making this yearʼs picks.
Though itʼs safe to say I
wonʼt be reaping any re-
wards from my picks, this
yearʼs Big Dance is already
becoming one of the best
and most unpredictable tour-
naments in history.
Not convinced? Well, con-
sider these facts. After just
two rounds ...
• The top overall seed in
the tournament (Kansas)
has already been knocked
out, as have one No. 2 (Villa-
nova), three No. 3s (George-
town, Pittsburgh and New
Mexico) and three No. 4s
(Vanderbilt, Maryland and
Wisconsin).
• Three members of the
Sweet 16 are from one-bid
conferences (the Horizon
League, Ivy League and Mis-
souri Valley Conference), the
first time that has happened
since the tournament field
expanded in 1985. And
speaking of parity, 11 differ-
ent conferences still have
teams alive in the regional
semifinals.
• The vaunted Big East,
which had eight of its 16
teams playing in the field,
has only two teams left
(Syracuse and West Virgi-
nia). Big East teams went 6-
6 in the first two rounds, with
second-seeded Villanova,
third seeds Georgetown and
Pittsburgh, sixth-seeded
Marquette and Notre Dame,
and No. 9 Louisville already
planning their Easter breaks.
• Thirteen of the 48 games
played so far have been de-
cided by three points or
fewer, and four of those
games went to overtime.
There were only three over-
time games in all of last
yearʼs tournament.
• Lower-seeded teams
won 16 of the games during
the first two rounds, includ-
ing 11 wins by double-digit
seeds.
• And for only the third time
since 1985, four teams seed-
ed ninth or worse (No. 9
Northern Iowa, No. 10 Saint
Maryʼs, No. 11 Washington
and No. 12 Cornell) have
reached the Sweet 16.
Letʼs face it, who would
have thought that struggling
defending champion North
Carolina would be playing
longer than top-ranked Kan-
sas in the postseason? As
of this writing, the 18-16 Tar
Heels were still alive in the
NIT quarterfinals.
Itʼs been a bizzare post-
season so far, and there
doesnʼt appear to be any
sign of the March Madness
letting up.
As we regroup from the
first weekend of madness
and get set for what could be
another crazy weekend
starting today (Thursday),
letʼs take a closer look at the
remaining 16 teams, and
how they might fare in their
quest to reach the Final Four
come Sunday night.
The East Region has a
pair of Cinderella teams still
dancing: No. 11 Washington
and No. 12 Cornell. Many
thought the Washington
Huskies didnʼt even belong
in the field, but their Pac-10
Conference Tournament
championship sealed their
bid, and they havenʼt disap-
ponted. Led by the explosive
Quincy Pondexter and su-
perb guard Isaiah Thomas,
the run-and-gun Huskies dis-
patched No. 6 Marquette
and third seed New Mexico
with ease. Now they get to
tangle with another Big East
team in second-seeded
West Virginia, truly a tough
test for the Mountaineers
and a game the Huskies will
win if they get the pace they
want.
The other half of the brack-
et features top-seeded
Kentucky and its talented
freshmen, led by John Wall
and DeMarcus Cousins,
against Ivy League champi-
on Cornell.
The Big Red have opened
up plenty of eyes in their
upset wins over No. 5
Temple and fourth-seeded
Wisconsin, but experts know
this is no ordinary Ivy Lea-
gue team. They have a legit-
imate big man in seven-foot
Jeff Foote, incredible shoot-
ers led by 6-7 Ryan Wittman
(son of former Indiana and
NBA player Randy Wittman),
and a big-time point guard in
Louis Dale.
Dale has one of the best
quotes Iʼve heard from the
tournament so far. “Weʼve
got eight seniors on this
team, and we want to take
this ride as long as we can,
because after this itʼs just
nothing but babies and
memories, so weʼll just keep
going,” he told reporters after
Sundayʼs dismantling of
Wisconsin.
The Kentucky-Cornell
game will be played in Sy-
racuse, N.Y., only 50 miles
from the Cornell campus.
Though the Big Red have
the weapons and experience
(this is their third straight
tournament) to win this game
and become the first Ivy
team since Penn (1979) to
reach the Final Four,
Kentuckyʼs talent and athleti-
cism eventually get the Big
Blue into the regional final
against Washington, and ulti-
mately into the Final Four.
In the South Region, the
way has been pretty much
cleared for ACC champion
Duke to advance. In the
semifinal round the top-
seeded Blue Devils meet
fourth-seeded Purdue, which
won two games
despite playing without
injured star Robbie Hummel.
Dukeʼs size, depth and abili-
ty sends Purdue packing.
Third-seeded Baylor is big,
long and athletic, but will
have its hands full with
another tournament Cinde-
rella in St. Maryʼs. The 10th-
seeded Gaels upset Rich-
mond in the opening round
and then No. 2 Villanova in
the second round, getting
their first tournament wins
since the 1950s. Showing
the way was center Omar
Samhan, who scored 29
points and had 12 rebounds
against Richmond, and fol-
lowed it up with a 32-point
effort in the win over Villa-
nova.
Baylor seems to have the
size to at least contain
Samhan, which will spell the
end to St. Maryʼs tournament
run. The Bears wonʼt have
enough to take down Duke,
however, as the Blue Devils
return to the Final Four for
the first time in nearly a
decade.
The Midwest Region is
wide open now that top seed
Kansas, No. 3 Georgetown
and fourth-seeded Maryland
are out. The dark horse here
now seems to be No. 9
Northern Iowa, which ousted
UNLV and Kansas with its
stifling defense and the peri-
meter shooting of Ali Farokh-
manesh. The hot-shooting
guard hit the game-winning
shot against both the Run-
ninʼ Rebels and Jayhawks,
both from the 25-foot range.
It begs the question: If the

With injured star Kailin

nament, fifth-seeded Michi-
gan State is vulnerable,
and will be upset by Northern
Iowa.
The other half of the brack-
et features No. 2 Ohio State
and its star, Evan Turner,
against No. 6 Tennessee, a
game the Volunteers can win
if they can keep Turner
under wraps.

ing and perimeter shooting,
