Its been al-
most two
years since
former Arkan-
sas Republi-
can Gov. Mike
Huckabee de-
clared the death of journalism
on the blog for his political ac-
tion committee.
Yet here I sit.
Ive often said that journal-
ism will never die.
Print? Sure, in time.
Reporters? Not a chance.
Editors? Well, I hope not.
But its innovation like the
scheme I discovered this week
that make me feel like things
are going to be alright.
A newspaper in Maine has
completely converted its news
operation to what could be a
completely free online deliv-
ery format, save for the neces-
sary dues to programmers and
debuggers.
The system apparently oper-
ates on Google Docs to build a
workflow similar to the tradi-
tional copy desk. Story
slugs, or reporter descrip-
tions of the piece, serve as the
file names. For example, this
piece is called 0619go_co-
lumn.hughes. Simple enough.
Copy editors use specific
characters to separate head-
lines frombody copy, and com-
ments are used to keep notes
out of the general workflow.
Action folders move the sto-
ries from reporters and editors
to the publishing desk, and a
WordPress plugin is used to
port headlines, photos, credits
and more into the blog content
management system.
Further integration allows
editors to assign a print head-
line in WordPress to be used in
layout through InDesign.
Its an amazing cloud-based
workflow that not only allows
for publishing from anywhere
presumably even from
smartphones with a Word-
Press app as it likely reduces
cost and improves much need-
ed newstoom attention to the
Internet.
That, and a Nieman Report
also released this week, con-
tinue to give me new hope for
the industry. That report said
that a focus on communities
and not money-making alter-
natives like paywalls are much
more effective business mod-
els.
I certainly smiled after read-
ing that one.
We certainly do a lot of e-
mail based work here, and that
goes for many fields far out-
side the scope of journalism.
But the thought of an entire
newsroom hooked in through
Google Docs and WordPress?
Thats really something to
keep an eye on.
CMS systems are pricey. I
know. My former role with this
company showed me just how
much a news business can
spend to make their hard work
appear online.
As print operations around
the country continue to con-
sider whether they should
shut down, newsrooms have to
think further ahead than ever
before.
Kudos to the Maine news-
room thats ahead of the curve
- where we all need to be.
Innovation never ceases to amaze

TRIAL OF A.J. MUNCHAK AND ROBERT CORDARO
S
CRANTON The pub-
lic corruption case
against A.J. Munchak
and Robert Cordaro will be
in the jurys hands Monday
following closing arguments
and instructions from U.S.
District Judge A. Richard
Caputo on how theyre to de-
termine whether the current
and former Lackawanna
County commissioners are
guilty or not guilty of any of
the 41 counts against them.
Caputo adjourned court
proceedings at 2:40 p.m. fol-
lowing defense testimony
Friday, the 10th day of the
trial, that included a revolv-
ing door of 11 witnesses who
spoke on Cordaros behalf.
Among them was Victor A.
DePhillips, president and
CEO of Signature Building
Systems in Scranton, who
spoke about a trip to Atlan-
tis Paradise Island in the Ba-
hamas in 2004 or 2005. On
the family vacation, DePhil-
lips said he encountered the
Cordaro family along with
the families of Glenn Gress
and West Scranton funeral
home director Al Hughes.
During that vacation, De-
Phillips said he saw Hughes
playing blackjack for $10,000
per hand. Its alleged that
The jury has certainly heard our side of the case, and were con-
fident that theyll acquit when they begin to deliberate next week.

CRANTON After six full
days of testimony against
them, attorneys for Lacka-
wanna County Commissioner
A.J. Munchak and former com-
missioner Robert Cordaro were
able to call the defendants to the
stand to give their side of the
story.
While Munchak admitted on
the stand that he broke state
rules regarding cash campaign
donations, Cordaro used the op-
portunity to degrade testimony
from those given government
immunity from criminal prose-
cution.
Munchak, the first defense
witness, said Wednesday during
five hours of testimony that he
did not pocket any cash that was
given to him by either Louis
Costanzo of L.R. Costanzo or
John Grow. The mens dona-
tions, he added, did not influen-
ce their ability to gain govern-
ment contracts or appointments
to the Lackawanna County Mul-
ti-Purpose Stadium Authority,
respectively.
He admitted under cross ex-
amination by Assistant U.S. At-
torney William Houser that not
reportingthecashcontributions
was wrong.

I know that I had to report all cash contributions,
and I didnt. It was a mistake. In my position, I should have

Day 6: June 13
John Heim of A.J. Guzzi General
Construction of Clarks Summit
said Ronald Cordaro, using the
analogy of a horse race, asked
him if he wanted to bet on the
winning horse.
Heim said Ronald Cordaro asked
him to make a contribution to
former Lackawanna County
Commissioner Robert Cordaro
and fellow majority Commission-
er A.J. Munchaks campaign. He
believed he was asked for $3,000
to $5,000.
Heims testimony differed from
other businessmen, all of whom
have admitted paying kickbacks
to either Cordaro or Munchak out
of fear they would lose contracts
they had with the county.
John Grow later testified he gave
a $500 cash contribution to
Munchak in 2003. Questioned by
Munchaks attorney, Chris Powell,
Grow denied the money was
meant to influence the commis-
sioners into appointing him to the
board.
Day 7: June 14
Internal Revenue Service Special
Agent Denise Cole said Wednes-
day that Cordaro racked up
$701,559.57 in cash expenditures
from 2004 to 2007, his time as a
majority commissioner alongside
Munchak.
He allegedly paid $50,000 placed
in a red paper box to Shawn
Tuffy, whose Dunmore home at
57 Tiffany Drive Cordaro bought.
His childrens tuition payments
for Scranton Prep and the Uni-
versity of Rochester included
$67,844.38 in cash. And bank
deposits and cash payments
toward his lines of credit amount-
ed to $380,749 all while Corda-
ro was claiming $122,725 in
taxable income in 2005 and
losses of $252,474 in 2006 and
$8,900 in 2007.
Officials say Cordaro failed to
report additional income totaling
$408,500 in those years. Its
alleged that Acker Associates
partner P.J. McLaine and High-
land Associates executive Don
Kalina gave the former commis-
sioner cash during that time out
of fear of losing their county
contracts.
If the jury does not believe the
witnesses, there is no tax claim,
IRS Revenue Agent Raymond
Eppley said under cross exam-
ination from Cordaros co-coun-
sel, Jerry Johnson, on Tuesday.
But if they do, it leaves Cordaro
on the hook for $98,856 in taxes,
according to Eppleys calculations
based on filed returns and testi-
mony that began last week.
Day 8: June 15
For once, the public corruption
trial focused squarely on Mun-
chak as he took the stand for five
hours after the prosecution
rested its case.
In a series of questions from
Powell, Munchak denied he
accepted $60,000 in cash from
Kalina, that he accepted $5,000
cash from L.R. Costanzo Presi-
dent Louis Costanzo in exchange
for county contracts, and that he
accepted $500 in cash from Grow
for a seat on the Lackawanna
County Multi-Purpose Stadium
Authority. He admitted to receiv-
ing campaign contributions from
Costanzo and Grow, but denied
pocketing the cash.
All monies I received were put
into the campaign, he said.
He admitted under cross exam-
ination by Assistant U.S. Attorney
William Houser that not reporting
cash contributions over $100 was
wrong.
I know that I had to report all
cash contributions, and I didnt. It
was a mistake, Munchak said. In
my position, I should have known
Ive learned it subsequently.
He also admitted that the de-
scription given to $25,150 in
campaign contributions was false.
They were reported in payments
of $50 each and labeled uni-
dentified contributions -- deposit
detail lost.
I broke a state violation, and
reluctantly I have to take respon-
sibility for that,he said.
Day 9: June 16
On Thursday, former Lackawanna
County Commissioner Robert
Cordaro launched his counter-
attack.
And he didnt hold back.
Government witnesses who said
he extorted money from them?
They were liars who, facing their
own legal troubles, took the easy
way out when they were offered
immunity, Cordaro said.
The federal investigators who
questioned them? They used
strong-arm tactics and threats of
prosecution to coerce witnesses
into saying what the government
wanted them to say, he said.
And the more than $700,000 he
spent in cash on cars, school
tuition, country club fees and
other expenses from 2004 to
2007?
It wasnt kickback money, but
part of $350,000 in cash savings
he kept in safe deposit boxes and
a home safe that Cordaro, an
attorney, earned over the years
from his law practice and other
businesses, he said.
Day 10: June 17
A series of character witnesses
testify on behalf of Cordaro
before U.S. District Judge A.
Richard Caputo adjourns at 2:40
p.m. He tells jurors that closing
statements will be heard Monday
morning, after which they will be
instructed on the process they
are to follow in order to find
Cordaro and Munchak either
guilty or not guilty of the 41
counts against them.
TRIAL TIMELINE - WEEK TWO
Hughes delivered $10,000 a
month in cash or checks to
Cordaro on behalf of Acker As-
sociates, and defense attor-
neys have worked to illustrate
his gambling habits and need
for additional income through-
out the trial.
Paul Taramelli, the former
county chief of staff during
Cordaro and Munchaks run as
majority commissioners from
2004 to 2007, said he had
known Cordaro for 20 years
and worked for the Friends of
Munchak and Cordaro cam-
paign. Fundraising events like
golf tournaments often includ-
ed cash donations above the
$100 limit.
Taramelli said he was in-
structed by the commissioners
to pay tips using cash that
came in, normally paying $50
each to waitresses, bartenders
and other staff members at
venues.
Cordaros co-counsel, Jerry
Johnson, asked a series of
character witnesses about
their opinion of his reputa-
tion for being truthful, honest,
and a law-abiding citizen.
Dr. Catherine Richmond-
Cullen, curriculum specialist
for Northeast Educational In-
termediate Unit #19, said she
joined Cordaro on an arts edu-
cation advisory council.
We found him very accom-
modating and delightful to
work with, she said.
Philadelphia Atty. Mark Ca-
vanaugh said he considered
Cordaro a man of the highest
integrity, and Peter Della Por-
ta, the director of technology
for the city of Philadelphia,
said he would trust the former
commissioner with his life.
The jury has certainly
heard our side of the case, and
were confident that theyll ac-
quit when they begin to delib-
erate next week, Cordaro said
Friday outside the William J.
Nealon Federal Building.
Closing arguments are ex-
pected to begin Monday at
9:30 a.m.

cash contributions, and I didnt. It
was a mistake, Munchak said. In
my position, I should have known
Ive learned it subsequently.
Houser characterized Mun-
chaks signature on campaign fi-
nance reports as a lie.
Youre saying it was a lie. Im
saying it was a wrong act, Mun-
chak said, adding that he believed
the reports to be true at the time
he signed them.
Prosecutors focused heavily on
the commissioners gambling hab-
its, outlining $43,000 in casino
markers paidthroughhis Pennstar
Bank account from Jan. 1, to Dec.
31, 2005. That amount included
$8,000 in markers specifically pur-
chased on New Years Eve 2005.
In one particular trip, Munchak
said he and Robert Conway, presi-
dent of Alicon Environmental,
Inc., sharedexpenses at Foxwoods
Resort Casino in Preston, Conn.
Alicon was responsible for the re-
moval of 20 tons of pigeon drop-
pings fromthe Lackawanna Coun-
ty Courthouse, and the govern-
ment alleges they bribed Cordaro
for a county contract inearly 2006.
That was the only (gambling)
tripwitha vendor, Munchaksaid.
After taking over the checking
account for the political action
committee Friends of Munchak
and Cordaro, he said he approved
several items he believed to be re-
lated to the campaign. Prosecu-
tors allege those payments in-
clude Cordaros personal dues to
the Glenmaura National Golf Club
and Scranton County Club.
If he had people that he was en-
tertaining and it was campaign-re-
lated, Mr. Cordaro would say,
This is a campaignexpense, andI
would approve it, Munchak said.
Cordaro, who testified Thurs-
day, took a more offensive ap-
proach to bolstering his defense.
He spent nearly six hours on the
stand sparring with Assistant U.S.
Attorney Bruce Brandler as he re-
viewed the myriad of allegations
against Cordaro and his co-de-
fendant, A.J. Munchak.
Brandler set the tone for the day
of often contentious testimony
when he reminded Cordaro of the
campaign promise he made to end
pay for play schemes and crony-
ism in the county.
You not only continued that
practice, you escalated it to whole
new corrupt level, Brandler said.
You personally got over $400,000
in cash by shaking down contrac-
tors wanting to do business with
the county.
Completely false, Cordaro
shot back. You and the govern-
ment gave them immunity to tell
the story you wanted to be told.
You offered them an easy way out
and unfortunately they took it.
Cordaro focused on attacking
the credibility of many of the wit-
nesses against him. His prime tar-
get was Al Hughes, a West Scran-
ton funeral director who prosecu-
tors say passed tens of thousands
of dollars in kickbacks to Cordaro
from the civil engineering firm
Acker Associates. Hughes also al-
leged Cordaro was a silent partner
in a cell tower project that netted
Cordaro and others $14,000 each.
Acker Associates is amongeight
businesses the government alleg-
es paid kickbacks to Cordaro and
Munchak during their tenure as
majority commissioners from
2004 to 2008 out of fear they
would lose lucrative contracts
with the county.
Cordaro vehemently denied he
was a partner inthe cell tower deal
or that he ever accepted money
from Hughes, whom he portrayed
as a degenerate gambler mired in
financial troubles.
Questioned by his attorney, Wil-
liam Costopoulos, Cordaro said
Hughes routinelylost tens of thou-
sands of dollars betting on foot-
ball, including a $10,000 bet he
once made with Cordaro.
Gambling was so ingrained in
Hughes blood that he once lost
another $10,000 bet with Cordaro
regarding whether Sno Mountain
would go through with the pur-
chase of Montage Mountain from
the county, Cordaro said.

CRIMINAL
COMPLAINTS
S
CRANTON AThroopmancontinuedhis annual effort toraise aware-
ness about the effects of asthma this weekend.
Dale Zawicki, who began his annual Walk Away fromAsthma walk
Friday at 8 a.m., around Scrantons Courthouse Square, was expected to con-
tinue walking for 58 hours, finishing today, Sunday, June 19.
Last year, Zawicki walked from Scranton to Washington, D.C. It took the
31-year-old Mt. Cobb native eight days to traverse nearly 250 miles.
It was a lot harder than I really antici-
pated, Zawicki said. There was people
that helpedmealongtheway- randompeo-
ple that were just really, really nice.
Growing up with asthma, Zawicki said
he knows first-hand the debilitating effects
it can have on a person.
Other members of his family have had it
as well, and now he worries for his two
sons, Austin and Logan.
They are big into baseball and sports
and activities just being kids. I dont really
want themto have to suffer through things
like I did, he explained.
Zawicki was first afflicted with asthma
when he was only eight years old, but he
now has the inflammatory disease under
control. It can flare up, he said, if he over-
exerts himself.
Imnot abigrunner. I dont liketogotoo
hard because my asthma will kick in, but I
walk a lot, said Zawicki.
I have a longer, faster stride when Im
out training. I wouldnt call it power walk-
ing, but its a decent amount of speed.
He often takes the 30-minute walk from
his Throop home to the Fortis Institute,
Scranton, where he is studying massage
therapy.
With a full-time class schedule and the
beginning of a newjob, he wasnt able to do
a long distance walk like he did in 2010.
He hopes that this years walk of nearly
60miles straight canmatchor eventoplast
years feat. He chose
Courthouse Square for
the 2011 event to attract
some attention from pas-
sers-by.
Hopefully it gets real-
ly busy. The more sup-
port and donations the
better, Zawicki said.
Healsohopedothers wouldjoinhimdur-
ing his nearly three-day effort.
Evenif youcant make a donation, come
down and take a walk. The more people
that are coming down, the more I feel moti-
vated and know Im doing a good thing.
Zawicki said he knows the risks of such
an extended effort.
He has suffered from heat exhaustion
twice before and once even stopped sweat-
ing completely.
Last year, he said, a park ranger just out-
side of Virginia had to stop him and bring
him into her home to get him hydrated
again.
Imdoing it for a goodcause, youknow?
Imnot just some crazyguywalkingaround
thecourthousesquarefor theweekend, he
laughed.
The event is sponsored by Zawicki, and
donations can be made at www.firstgiv-
ing.com/walkawayfromasthma. All pro-
ceeds benefit the Asthma and Allergy
Foundation of America.

SCRANTON - A Gouldsbo-
ro man was taken into custo-
dy by city police on June 10
after an employee with Best
Buys Geek Squad found sev-
eral images of child pornogra-
phy on his hard drive.
Glenn Smith, 51, of Sunset
Drive, was charged with one
count each of possession of
child pornography and crimi-
nal use of a communication
facility after the alleged dis-
covery.
According to the avadavat:
Scranton police arrived at
the Best Buy location in Dick-
son City just before 3 p.m. af-
ter receiving a report of child
pornography found on a lap-
top computer.
Eric McFarland and Wil-
liam Esgro were the computer
technicians that were current-
ly working on the computer.
Smith dropped his laptop
and a hard drive off at the
store earlier that day to have
the files transferred from the
hard drive to the laptop.
McFarland checked to make
sure all the files were relocat-
ed successfully due to an un-
usual amount of My Docu-
ment folders.
Upon checking the folders,
seven or eight pictures of
young children that appeared
to be between the ages of 11
and 16 age were allegedly dis-
covered.
Police seized the laptop and
hard drive.
In an in-depth forensic anal-
ysis, more images were alleg-
edly uncovered depicting sex-
ual abuse of children.
Smith was voluntarily
brought by detectives to the
Lackawanna County District
Attorneys office where he
told authorities with that he
browsed Internet sites depict-
ing images of young nude
girls.
He said he is sexually at-
tracted to 12- and 13-year-old
girls.
Smith denied ever having
sexual contact with a minor.
He also expressed he is only
interested in nude images,
and not girls engaged in sex-
ual intercourse.
The arresting officer was
Scranton Detective Jennifer
Gerrity.
Smith was arraigned June
10 and released on $10,000 un-
secured bail. A preliminary
hearing is set for June 20.

SCRANTON A current
Scranton patrolman faces charg-
es including official oppression
after an alleged incident Sun-
day, June 12, at The V Spot, 906
Providence Rd., Scranton.
Mark Miller, 32, of Prospect
Ave., faces one count eachof ter-
roristic threats, official oppres-
sion, disorderly conduct and ha-
rassment, and two counts of
simple assault in charges filed
June 16.
According to an affidavit:
The Lackawanna County Dis-
trict Attorneys office received a
report written by Scranton Sgt.
Timothy Charles about the
physical altercation at the V
Spot on June 14.
Miller, along with Brian Gan-
non and Christopher Kahanic,
attemptedto enter the bar while
carrying alcohol, according to
security guard Matthew Sobies-
ki. Miller and Gannon said that
they were Scranton cops, and
Gannon allegedly showed hima
fake badge as he is not employed
by the department.
Miller allegedly told Sobieski
that he was going to punch him
in the face when he was asked
to show his police badge a sec-
ond time. He then began fight-
ing with Robert Ruddy, an off-
duty security guard for the bar,
and Michelle Smolskis. Miller
allegedly punched the two and
was stepping on their chests.
Lackawanna County Detec-
tive John Munley interviewed
Sobieski after reviewing the re-
port. He told Munley that when
the men refused to leave after
they approached the door carry-
ing alcohol, he warned them
that he would call police.
Oh yeah, (expletive), Im a
Scranton cop, Miller allegedly
replied.
Miller also allegedly told So-
bieski that if anything happens
to him, he will (expletive) Mr.
Sobieski up, according to the
affidavit.
I will make your life a living
hell. I will pull you over every
timeI could. I will arrest youand
put you in jail for the rest of your
life, Miller allegedly continued.
I will kill you.
Sobieski told the detective
that he was in fear for his life at
this time.
Surveillance footage showed
Miller showing his badge in an
attempt to enter the bar and
striking Smolskis and Ruddy.
Miller offered no comment as
he left his arraignment on
Thursday afternoon. He was re-

one count each of simple as-
sault, impersonating a public of-

DUNMORE - In what has been described
as a win-win situation for Dunmore, coun-
cil unanimously approved a motion on Mon-
day night that promises to bring the borough
$20,000 through a previously an untapped
revenue source.
The agreement moves Dunmore into a 10-
year land lease agreement with Besko Media
Advertising Company of Hamlin, which will
lease land on part of the boroughs Depart-
ment of Public Works complex in the Keys-
tone Industrial Park alongside Interstate 81
North. Besko will erect and maintain a two-
sided billboard structure on the land leased
from the borough.
The lease allows the borough to earn ap-
proximately $20,000 per year with a five per-
cent increase in revenue every two years. At
the end of the ten-year period, the borough
stands to make $25,000 annually from the
lease agreement. Besko will assume all re-
sponsibility for the parcel.
This is money that Dunmore Borough
could sorely use to fund other projects that
werent budgeted for this year, revenue-
wise, saidCouncilmanPaul Nardozzi. This
is a windfall for us andwe coulduse it for oth-
er expenses that might arise between now
and the end of the year. They have already
givenus $5,000, whichwe put intoour gener-
al fund. Every municipality has things that
popupthat werent budgetedfor. This is only
June so this will be a great help to us.
In other news, council approved a motion
entering into a lease agreement with the
Scranton-Lackawanna Human Development
Agency Head Start Program to use space in
the Dunmore Community Center in the
amount of $1,300 per monthbeginning July1
and ending June 30, 2014. The new lease in-
creased the rental fee by $100.
In a 5-1 vote, the borough passed a motion
entering into a two-year lease agreement
with the Dunmore Senior Center for use of
the Dunmore Community Center for $1.00
annually. The lease will run from July 1 until
June 30, 2013. Councilman Sandy Cancelleri
abstained from the vote.
Also, Peter Cordaro, Scott Perry, and
Christopher Rinaldi were unanimously ap-
pointedtothe Dunmore Police Departments
part-time reserve officer list. The newly-ap-
pointed officers will serve the borough on an
as-needed basis.

SCRANTON The cancella-
tion of a City Council public cau-
cus withthe ScrantonRedevelop-
ment Authority on Tuesday re-
garding the authoritys defaulted
loan left Council President Janet
Evans questioning their account-
abilityinthematter.
While it was mainly cancelled
duetolackof aquorum, withonly
threemembersof council present,
Evans said SRA board chairman
WilliamLazorrefusedtoattend.
Mayor Chris Doherty was out of
the country, Tax Collector Wil-
liam Courtright had a prior com-
mitment, andcouncil saidtheyre-
ceived no response from other
members of cityadministration.
Mr. Lazor stated that if we
want to discuss anything, we can
attendaScrantonRedevelopment
Authoritymeetingwhenit is held
sometimeinJulyI findthat type
of response unacceptableThe
parties involved, really, should
havebeenhere, Evans said.
The SRA purchased the citys
delinquent taxesfrom2004, 2005,
and2005withaline-of-credit loan
on Dec. 20, 2007, and the city is
now responsible for the
$1,560,398.80 debt after the au-
thority recently defaulted. The
city also owes interest of $227.56
per day through the date of pay-
ment. ItwasduetoPennstarBank
onor beforeJune18.
Not onlyareyouA: holdingup
the legislation, but B: it appears
that youre hiding from the pub-
lic, Evans saidof theSRA.
Council solicitor Boyd Hughes
felt that theloanwasacaseof mal-
feasance and that the loan never
should have been made, as the
SRAhas noliability.
I think the city could up a de-
fense that Pennstar made an im-
proper loan, that theyknewwhen
the loan was made that it could
not be collected under the terms
of thenote, Hughes said.
Lazor did not return a request
for comment.
Authority
opts out
of public
meeting
By RICH HOWELLS
SCRANTON City Council officially ap-
pointed former city business administra-
tor Stu Renda to the Scranton Sewer Au-
thority at their June 7 meeting, but some
members say they did not do so willingly.
Renda, whose wife Liz Renda currently
serves as director of finance for the Scran-
ton Parking Authority, was chosen to fill
the unexpired term of Matthew Flynn.
Flynn passed away on May 5, leaving the
remaining term to expire on Dec. 31, 2012.
Ryan McGowan replaced Mr. Renda as the
business administrator in January.
The vote was 3-1, with Council Vice
President Pat Rogan dissenting. Council-
man Bob McGoff was absent from the
June 7 meeting.
When Mr. Renda was the business ad-
ministrator, he had a very lackluster re-
cord of getting back to City Council re-
garding various issues, so I will be voting
no, Rogan said at councils May 31 meet-
ing.
Councilman Jack Loscombe said he
agreed with Rogan, calling Renda an en-
abler of Mayor Chris Dohertys agenda,
but voted in the affirmative because coun-
cils votes on authority appointments
dont matter.
Loscombe was referring to an incident
in March of 2010, when the council su-
permajority attempted to make their own
appointments to the Scranton Redevelop-
ment Authority and the Scranton Parking
Authority.
Doherty had selected Robert Timlin
and Joseph Matyjevich, respectively, to fill
the authority seats, but council rejected

SCRANTON City Council
unanimously passed the first
reading of legislation on Tues-
day that will change the zon-
ing of a parcel of land in Mi-
nooka. If given final passage,
the legislation may stop an
outside developer from build-
ing a proposed housing devel-
opment.
The 17-acre section, located
near the 100 to 200 block of
Davis Street, is currently
zoned as a C-N, or a commer-
cial neighborhood area, yet the
surrounding area is R-1A, or a
medium to low density resi-
dential district. Minooka resi-
dents packed council cham-
bers in a public hearing on
June 7 to express their over-
whelming support of changing
the zoning to R-1A to assure
that only single-family homes
could be built on the property.
Glenn Worgan, vice presi-
dent and principal of the Dela-
ware Valley Development Co.
and equitable owner of proper-
ty, explained to council his
companys intentions for the
property during the caucus.
They proposed building a 76-
unit affordable, low-income
housing development, and
Worgan said city officials, in-
cluding Office of Economic
and Community Development
Executive Director Linda Ae-
bli, are in support of the pro-
ject.
John Finnerty, president of
the Minooka Neighborhood
Association, countered with a
petition signed by 522 Minoo-
ka residents, citing increased
traffic flow, road capacity and
deterioration, water runoff,
school capacity, greater crimi-
nal activity, safety concerns,
and decreased property values
as issues they believe would
occur with the developments
construction. Worgan felt
these concerns were unjusti-
fied.
Council voted 3-0 in favor of
rezoning the property. Coun-
cilman Pat Rogan and Jack
Loscombe were absent from
the meeting.
In my opinion, attorney
Finnerty brought forth stron-
ger concerns than Mr. Morgan.
Besides the differing of opin-
ion between attorney Finnerty
and Mr. Morgan, the most im-
portant piece of the puzzle be-
hind all the legal red tape is
what the people of Minooka
want, Councilman Frank
Joyce said.
Last month, I walked vari-
ous streets in Minooka and
discussed this issue with resi-
dents, probably around 150 in
total. Out of all of those resi-
dents, everyone was in favor of
changing the zoning to R-1A.
Council solicitor Boyd
Hughes said that when he re-
searched the parcel of land, he
found that it had previously
been zoned as R-1A, but when
new zoning code was adopted
in 1993, it was changed to C-N
for no clear reason. He felt that
the property sticks out like a
sore thumb as a C-N zone.
Councilman Bob McGoff
asked Hughes if the Delaware-
based developer could legally

SCRANTON The loss of an expected
$4 million in state funding coupled
with the continuing tough economic
times has forced The Commonwealth
Medical College to trim faculty by eight
members and make cuts in other staff
andprograms, interimPresident Dr. Lois
Margaret Nora said Tuesday.
The total budget has been sliced by
more than $3 million a reduction of
more than 10 percent, Nora said.
The cuts wont impact the colleges
core mission to train new doctors and
medical professionals, Nora stressed. To
keep that promise, she noted six of the
eight faculty members who will not re-
turn next year were heavily involved in
research or administration and did not
spend a lot of time teaching.
Still, the moneyproblems pose a threat
to the colleges education status.
Our financial challenges are signifi-
cant enough that we understand they
contributed to the decision by the LCME
the Liaison Committee on Medical
Education, the accrediting body for the
MD-granting programs in the United
States to put TCMC on probation this
year.
The school still has preliminary ac-
creditation, and the LCME has given the
go-ahead to accept another class of in-
coming students next year, Nora said.
But the probation does mean it will
take longer to earn provisional accred-
itation something Nora said the col-
lege had hoped to reach this year fol-
lowed by full accreditation.
Financial issues
The financial problems stem from
three broad reasons, Nora said: the
drop in expected state funding, the esti-
mated $120 million cost of a newmedical
school under construction (TCMC cur-
rently uses space at Lackawanna Col-
lege), and the sour economic climate
that continues to curb donations.
The college, which opened in August
2009, is taking a three-pronged approach
to weather the bad times and emerge on
solid financial footing, Nora said.
Alongwiththe cuts, the college is look-
ing for new sources of money, including
seeking additional support from Blue
Cross of Northeastern Pennsylvania.
The insurance giant provided a cer-
tain level of initial support with startup
costs andconstructionof the newschool,
Nora said, and we are asking for addi-
tional support over the next five years as
we get our finances in order.
The college is also grateful for efforts
by some Harrisburg legislators trying to
restore funding in the upcoming state
budget, whichmust befinalizedbyJuly1.
The third part of the plan is to look for
new types of partnerships and affilia-
tions to strengthen the school going for-
ward, Nora said, working with other
schools and institutions to keep costs
downwhile keepingcollege offerings sol-
id. Spokeswoman Anne Green also said
the college is trying to extend its line of
credit with a local bank.
Three classes enrolled
The college has three classes of 65 stu-
dents eachandwill adda fourthclass this
fall, Nora said.
The school has several hundred clin-
ical volunteer faculty.
The eight people not comingbacknext
year are part of about 40 paid faculty. Of
those, two were part-time faculty who
spent most of their time teaching, but six
were predominantly researchers or in-
volved in administration.
Research is important to a medical col-
lege, Nora said, because it helps students
learn the process and the milieu of the
medical profession, and because it can
help advance the ever-changing field of
medicine. Research will continue at
TCMC but will be more carefully fo-
cused.
Students have been involved in re-
search on topics as varied as chewed to-
bacco to breast feeding to autism, Nora
said. Third-year students are set to begin
applying such experience in clinical set-
tings throughout the region, she added.
What this school means to the region
and what it will mean is so important,
Nora said. Its not surprising that new
organizations in these times have finan-
cial issues.
While the cuts come barely two
months after the colleges first president,
Dr. Robert M. DAlessandri, announced
he was stepping down, Nora stressed
they are absolutely not a result of any-
thingDAlessandri did. State cuts andthe
economic downturn are the primary cul-
prits, she said.
Nora noted news in The Chronicle of
Higher Education last week that The
University of California at Riverside
failed to earn preliminary accreditation
for a planned medical college from the
LCME precisely because the California
legislature hasnt promised to support
the idea.
Finances are difficult all over, Nora
said. The important thing is that we
have a plan, were going to have this tak-
encareof, andweregoingtobejust fine.

SCRANTON - Pennsylvania
American Water announced up-
grades onWednesday to approx-
imately 8,900 feet of water main
alongLuzerne Street toimprove
reliability for customers, reduce
service disruptions and increase
water flows for firefighting.
The cost of the system im-
provements is approximately
$2.7 million.
Pennsylvania American Wa-
ter will replace approximately
5,400 feet of existing 16-inch
cast iron water main, dating
back to the early 1900s, with
new16-inchductile-ironpipe be-
tween Main and Keyser ave-
nues. Additionally, 3,500 feet of
six-inch water main, originally
installed in 1893, will be re-
placed with new eight-inch pipe
from 13th Avenue to Sherman
Street.
This is an area that has a his-
tory of main breaks in recent
years, said Anthony Gangemi,
superintendent, field oper-
ations, Pennsylvania American
Water. With this significant
capital investment, we will help
ensure our water systems stabil-
ity to provide reliable service for
many years to come.
The company also will re-
place a pressure-reducing sta-
tion along Luzerne Street. The
station serves as a secondary
feedtoTaylor, OldForge andthe
west side of Scranton.
Work is set to begin the week
of June 20. The company ex-
pects to complete the pressure-
reducing station replacement
work and water main installa-
tion, including transfer of all
customer services and final pav-
ing restoration, by November.
During construction, custom-
ers might experience temporary
service interruptions, discol-
ored water and/or lower than
normal water pressure. Crews
will work as quickly as possible
to shorten the length of these

SCRANTON - Lackawanna
County participated in the sixth
annual Dump the Pump Day on
June 16 as the County of Lacka-
wanna Transit System offered
free rides on all of its routes to
help promote the use of public
transportation.
As people would get on and
off buses on Wyoming Avenue
on Thursday, they were present-
ed with flyers and information
packets describing the Dump
the Pump initiative, along with
other details about bus rates,
schedules, carpoolingandmore.
Patrons also received buttons
and entered raffles for free T-
shirts.
There was a calculation we
did where we found out 17,000
gallons of gas would be saved if
everyone in Lackawanna Coun-
ty would take the bus to and
from work for only one day,
COLTS Communications Direc-
tor Gretchen Wintermantel ex-
plained.
According to Wintermantel,
1,832 extra people decided to
take the bus onThursday to sup-
port the cause. The total people
that road the transit bus was
6,280 up from4,448 riders last
Thursday.
We are really trying to get
more people to ride because of
the environment, Winterman-
tel said. Even if people are car
pooling or walking, it helps and
is good for the environment.
Plus, they wont have to pay the
high gas prices.
COLTS is doing its own part
to cut down on those gas prices.
The transit system introduced
its first four diesel-electric hy-
brid buses in March, and Win-
termantel said another nine
have been ordered. The hybrid
buses offer 35 percent greater
fuel efficiency than more tradi-
tional models.
Later this year, riders can ex-
pect to see new routes through-
out the region as COLTS com-
pletes its restructuring effort.
That move to eliminate under-
used routes and increase access
to area shopping centers is ex-
pected to be completed by Octo-
ber 3.
Nelson Salcedo, a COLTS bus
driver of five years, said his fa-
vorite part of the job is the peo-
ple. He believes more people are
takingadvantage of public trans-
portation, and events like Dump
the Pump make residents pay
more attention to the effects
their cars couldhaveontheenvi-
ronment.
Brandon Hatalski, a frequent
bus rider who does not own a
car, said he loves riding public
transportation.
Its agreat senseof communi-
ty, Hatalski explained. Ive
made friends andI have noprob-
lem paying the $1.10 to get to
where I need to be.

OSCOW The staff of the North Pocono Library
hopes that they can break ground on a newstate-
of-the-art facility in the spring of 2012.
With population on the rise in the region, the current fa-
cility located at 113 Van Brunt St., Moscow, isnt capable of
supporting the rapidly growing community.
Because of the new people
moving into the community,
this community had outgrown
the library more than 10 years
ago. Even without a rise in the
sizeof thecommunity, thebuild-
ing is in declining condition and
we really just needa newhome,
said Library Director Susan Jef-
fery.
The existing1,300 square foot
library has little room to house
its many collections.
Many large programs are held
next door at the Moscow bor-
ough building. And there is no
space to display the books well,
making it difficult for patrons to
find what theyre looking for.
The newNorthPoconoPublic
Library, which will be located at
1315 Church St.,
Moscow, is de-
signedtofixmany of
the current facilitys
problems.
Plans include a
large community
hall allowing for
seating for up to 90
people. Other im-
provements include
room for larger collections and
new spacious areas for chil-
drens programming.
The library plans to provide
additional space for outdoor ac-
tivities, a business center with
computers and fax machines,
and advanced computer tech-
nology throughout the building.
The North Pocono Public Li-
brary is spearheading exciting
and much-needed plans to con-
struct a new, modern facility
that will meet the needs of the
community now and for gener-
ations to come, Terry Barret, li-
brary board president, said.
Nowis the time to get it done.
Corporate, private, and gov-
ernment support has started to
come together.
For example, the library has
already received a Redevelop-
ment Assistance Capitol Pro-
gram grant for $250,000.
They have gained support
from the Lackawanna County
Library system and one gener-
ous anonymous do-
nor. Board mem-
bers havealsogiven
generously.
The library is
seeking extra sup-
port from addition-
al corporate donors
andcitizens, as well
as more grants to
achieve a $3.2 million goal.
The new library will raise
property value and provide an
economic boost to the commu-
nity. Staff members hope it will
also allow people to search for
jobs and take advantage of other
services to survive the current
jagged economy.
Libraries are also a key re-
source for communities and
families. The hope is that the
new North Pocono Public Li-
brary will be a family venue that
brings residents together.
It is wonderful that genera-
tions of families - grandparents,
parents, and children - can enjoy
the library together and benefit
from it in many different ways.
board member Dottie Magnotta
said.

of a major redevelopment pro-

participating in graffiti removal
and neighborhood clean-ups;
and of new friendships that are
developing over the sharing of

Stories like these give us the
strength and hope necessary to
keep moving forward as a com-
munity.
Even though there is still
much to be done, families, busi-
ness-owners, youth and seniors
are all pitching in to build the
kind of community that we can
be proud of. Crime, blight and
abandonment need to be ad-
dressed, and we are grateful for
the citys police force and hous-
ing inspectors who work in this
community every day, but we
must also do our part at the
neighborhood level.
All it takes is volunteering at a
neighborhood clean-up, mow-
ing your neighbors grass or get-
ting to know the family next
door. Through small steps like
these, we can re-build South
Side one step at a time. If every-
one does their part, well have
plenty of stories to be proud of.

South Side has another
story to tell
Withall of the recent events at
Finn McCools and the Sun Ho-
tel, many residents of South
Scranton are deeply concerned
about the future of their neigh-
borhood, and rightfully so.
These types of incidents are
enoughto make any community
feel on edge.
We here at United Neighbor-
hood Center of Northeastern
Pennsylvanias (UNC) Elm
Street Program are trying to do
our part by continuing to work
in partnership with the District
Attorneys Office, the South
Scranton Residents Associ-
ation, the City Housing Inspec-
tors and the Scranton Police De-
partment to address crime and
blight in our neighborhood.
But addressing these issues
takes time, so it is important not
to let cynicism and fear get the
best of us, even when it seems
like things are never goingtoget
better.
Additionally, an unfortunate
side effect of events like these
cansometimes bethelabelingof
an entire neighborhood as dan-
gerous and unsafe.
While South Scranton does
face many obstacles in the path
towards creating a safer, health-
ier community, there is also an-
other story to tell.
There is a story of residents
who are getting involved for the
very first time; of neighbors that
look out for each other and who

challenge the rezoning as dis-
criminatory against low-in-
come residents, as Worgan had
charged during the caucus. Fin-
nerty, who pointed out that
plans for the development have
not even been officially submit-
ted to the city yet, denied this
claim.
Anybody can sue anybody.
Its that simple, Hughes re-
sponded.
Council President Janet
Evans saidthat the citys lawof-
fice refused to draft the zon-
ing legislation when they re-
quested it, so Hughes worked
with city planner Don King to
develop the legislation for
Tuesday.
She also requested that
Hughes write legislation for
next weeks agenda to transfer
funds fromthe citys Urban De-
velopment Action Grant ac-
count to pay for lifeguards at
the Novembrino pool in West
Scranton, which Mayor Chris
Doherty saidina January inter-
view would be closed to allow
construction on a new splash
park to begin.
Evans said that the rehiring
of four Department of Public
Works foremen by Doherty fol-
lowing their elimination in the
2011budget prevented the pool
from opening.
It isnt right that hundreds
of children must lose free
swimming this summer to pay
for political appointments,
Evans said.

quest for comment at press
time.

his appointments and selected
Andy Sbaraglia, a member of
the Scranton/Lackawanna
County Taxpayers Associ-
ation, and Giovanni Piccolino,
owner of Buona Pizza in
Scranton, instead, citing a
lack of cooperation between
the authorities and council.
While council solicitor Boyd
Hughes felt that council was
within their legal rights to do
so, the mayor, the authorities,
and their solicitors refused to
recognize councils appoint-
ments, saying they were in vi-
olation of the Home Rule
Charter and several other laws
that grant this power solely to
the mayor. Dohertys appoint-
ments, Timlin and Matyjev-
ich, took their respective seats
in April of 2010.
Renda and council had also
clashed during his term as
business administrator, usual-
ly relating to the management
of city finances.
On Tuesday, Council Presi-
dent Janet Evans said that
Renda had already been ap-
pointed to the Scranton Sewer
Authority before the legisla-
tion even came before council.
She added that council would
not be challenging the ap-
pointment this time.
We received the legisla-
tion, apparently, after the fact-
Because there are so many
issues on councils plate and
99 percent of these issues are
very great, very important to
all the people of the city, I
think it becomes important to
choose your battles, Evans
said.
I dont think its the battle
that, in this case, you want to
undertake because there are
far more serious situations
that require our immediate
consideration.
Councilman Frank Joyce
gave a hint, however, that rela-
tions between council and the
administration are improving.
He said that he and Evans met
with several city officials over
the weekend to discuss the
current financial situation of
city, though details of the con-
versation will be kept confi-
dential until further notice.
While council would have
preferred a public caucus with
city administration, Joyce said
he agreed to meet in private
as an amicable gesture and
to signify that council is will-
ing to work with the adminis-
tration.
The challenges that Scran-
ton faces today cannot be
solved by the same level of
thinking and processes that
were instituted when they
were first created years ago,
Joyce said. Public meetings
between the administration
and council have never oc-
curred in the past. A change in
this pattern is necessary to ini-
tiate true progress and overall
fiscal health.

At first glance, this list
seems to have an oddball
amongst its midst.
Upon further research,
one would realize that all
of those listed on the list
have been named Person
of the Year by Time Mag-
azine -or, in the case of
The Computer, a Ma-
chine of the Year.
Time Magazine correctly
foretold the future, where
virtually everyone uses a
computer in their daily
lives.
According to the U.S.
Census Bureau, the per-
centage of adults over the
age of 18 who use a com-
puter at least occasionally
rose from 65 percent in
2000 to 77 percent in 2010.
While nearly three-quar-
ters of the population have
experience with computers,
many regular users do not
have knowledge of more
advanced computer pro-
grams, such as Microsoft
Word and Excel. Knowledge
of how to use these programs
is important for those who
are seeking employment and
even for those who wish to
bring organization to their
daily lives.
If you do not know how to
use these programs, or do not
know how to use a computer at
all, the Albright Memorial
Library is here for you.
Professionally taught, free
computer classes are offered at
the Albright Memorial Li-
brarys Computer Learning
Lab.
Rick Maloney, a certified
teacher with over 20 years
experience is the Computer
Lab Coordinator and teaches
all classes.
Each class is capped at seven
adult patrons, so space is limit-
ed and pre-registration with a
valid Lackawanna County
Library Card is required for all
classes.
The library has been a cru-
cial resource for helping people
find and keep jobs by upgrad-
ing their computer skills.
With todays highly compet-
itive job market, you need
every advantage you can get,
and training and experience in
MS Word and Excel 2007 is
essential for almost any job you
apply for.
Classes currently offered
include:
Introduction to Computers

P
eople are often
confused when
hearing the words
stacking coupons. Pri-
or to learning about cou-
poning, I was not aware
of this money saving
strategy, either.
Stacking coupons re-
fers to using one store
coupon and one manu-
facture coupon, so ac-
tually stacking the cou-
pons on top of each for a
greater savings on the
product.
There are many stores that
offer store coupons, but you
have to be aware their cou-
pon policy before trying to
stack the coupons together.
However, most stores will
allow at least one store cou-
pon and one manufacture
coupon per product.
Price Chopper also allows
stacking coupons, and their
store coupons are found
online at
www.pri-
cechopper-
.com or
www.face-
book.com/
pricechop-
per. Addi-
tional coupons can be found
in the Sunday insert. There
have been a ton of great cere-
al coupons lately, like one
offering four General Mills
cereals for $6 with an in-
store coupon. This in-store
coupon can be stacked with
multiple manufacture cou-
pons to purchase cereal as
low as $1 per box.
Target is one of my favor-
ite stores to stack coupons
since they often send out
Target Coupons or you can
print them on www.target-
.com. If the coupon prints as
a Target Store Coupon that
means that you can use a
manufacture coupon as well.
An example of this is with
A-1 steak sauce. There is a $1
off of one A-1 Steak Sauce
Target Store Coupon at
www.target.com that can be
used with a June 5 Smart
Source coupon for $1 off of
one A-1 Steak sauce. Using
those coupons together, you
can snag the sauce for
around $1.
Drug stores also allow
stacking coupons. Rite Aid,
CVS, and Walgreens all allow
coupon stacking. Rite Aid
store coupons can be found
on http://riteaid.adperk.com
or in the weekly circular.
Walgreens store coupons can
be found in the weekly circu-
lar or the monthly coupon
booklets found at the front of
the store. And CVS store
coupons can be found scan-
ning your Extra Care Cards
at the coupon machine and
on www.cvs.com.
Although most stores do
allow coupon stacking, its a
good idea to read over their
coupon policy before heading
out shopping. Coupon stack-
ing is worth investing the
time in learning your stores
coupon policy to plan your
shopping trip in advance and
get the most stack for your
money. Most policies can be
found on store websites.

TOP DEALS THIS WEEK State Sen. John P. Blake ap-
plauded a Senate concurrence
vote takenWednesdayonHouse
amendments to Senate Bill
1006, banning the production,
use, sale and possession of bath
salts and synthetic marijuana in
Pennsylvania.
I commend my colleagues in
both chambers of the legislature
for their swift action to ban
these substances, which have
become an enormous threat to
public safety, Blake said. This
issue was of particular concern
to my Senate district. The pre-
ventative actions taken by the
mayor and by law enforcement
officials in the City of Scranton
in April evidenced an urgency
for action by the General As-
sembly.
Concentrated bath salts con-
tain a chemical known as
MDPV, which can mimic the ef-
fects of cocaine and metham-
phetamine.
Senate Bill 1006 also bans sal-
via divinorum and prohibits the
sale of synthetic marijuana.
The ban contained in Senate
Bill 1006 now goes to Gov. Tom
Corbett for enactment.

SCRANTON While detec-
tive work isnt as glamorous
as television shows often de-
pict it to be, the work is cru-
cial to solving violent crimes
or simple thefts, members of
the Scranton Police Depart-
ments Citizens Police Acade-
my learned on June 15.
Detectives Joe Lafferty and
Jeff Gilroy lead the week four
lesson on the detectives divi-
sion.
Everyone watches CSI
and all of these shows on TV,
but its really not like that,
Lafferty said.
But the department does
have some tools at its dispos-
al that can
feel like the
prime trime
crime dra-
mas.
JNET, for
example, is a
catalog of
photographs managed by the
Pennsylvania State Police. It
involves drivers license and
arrest photos and can be used
to identify possible suspects.
In order for some suspects
to be recognized using JNET
photos against surveillance
footage, the situation has to
be perfect, Gilroy said, but
its better than it was 10 years
ago As we keep progressing
technologically, its going to
get better.
The work can be laborious,
but its often very rewarding.
One of the reasons I came
to the Scranton Police De-
partment was because I want-
ed to do this, Gilroy, who
was promoted to the depart-
ment last year, told the men
an women enrolled in the a-
cademy.
Lafferty said detectives of-
ten use surveillance footage,
witness clues and more to
piece together cases of credit
card theft, burglary and
more. In assault cases, victim
interviews are crucial to find-
ing alleged criminals. Find-
ing the most information
from the most sources help
ensure that false charges
arent filed.
These cases, theyre never
simpleTheres many factors
in investigating, Lafferty
said.
In cases like the fatal shoot-
ing at Finn McCools in May,
officers may only have nick-
names or false names of pos-
sible suspects. It could take a
series of interviews to discov-
er actual identities.
Youre lucky if you get a
nickname, Lafferty added.
The McCools case involved
interviews with bartenders,
the research of credit card re-
ceipts, and the documenta-
tion of finger prints on every
glass in the bar, he said. That
helped police identify where
certain people may have been
sitting at the time of the in-
cident that left Harrisburg na-
tive Malik Carter dead.
Four people were charged
as co-conspirators in that
homicide.
The extraction of DNA and
other crucial evidence can
take between three months
and two years, which is why
some cases take longer than
others to solve.
Each detective has their
own favored ways of gather-
ing the data they need to
close a case.
My biggest thing is talking
to people because everything
sees everything. You have to
somehow get it out of that
person, Lafferty said.
Many of the crimes investi-
gated come back to drugs,
whether theyre home bur-
glaries, assaults or even cred-
it card thefts, according to
Lafferty.
Class members got first-
hand lessons on drug enforce-
ment during their June 8
class.
Class members were also
put through small exercises
where they had to put pieces
of a crime together to come to
a likely conclusion.
Detectives offer investigative lesson
Detectives Jeff Gilroy and Joe Lafferty discuss the detectives division in the fourth week of the Citizens Police Academy.
Citizen police class members line up to receive their T-shirts
during the June 15 session.
Class members will be educated
on crime scenes and auto theft
prevention in class on June 22.

SCRANTON Anoth-
er sign that residents
are becoming part of
the solution against
crime in the city was re-
vealed Wednesday night
at a meeting of commu-
nity leaders inside po-
lice headquarters.
Scranton Police Chief Dan
Duffy joined leaders from the
United Neighborhood Center
of Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia, West Scranton-Hyde
Park Neighborhood Watch,
Keyser Valley Association,
Plot Neighborhood Associ-
ation, North Scranton Neigh-
borhood Association and
Tripp Park Neighborhood
Association as he showcased
the new crime watch signs.
The idea for new crime
watch signs was first dis-
cussed in February during a
similar meeting at Widmer
Signs, and it is a continua-
tion of the chief s proactive,
positive approach to fighting
crime that has included bum-
per stickers, the foundation
of a West Side precinct at the
Jackson Street skate park,
and the first Citizens Police
Academy in several years.
I believe it has been work-
ing. I believe theres more in-
volvement, more interest,
he said.
Its my goal to keep mov-
ing forward with this and
keep building relationships.
The success of the police,
Duffy said, doesnt depend
solely on the size of the de-
partment.
Its a matter of getting
people involved and not be-
ing afraid to get involved,
he said. Its our city, and its
your police department.
Previous crime watch
signs depicting an unsavory,
silhouetted suspect, have be-
come faded and are often
passed by.
People probably dont
even know what they mean
anymore, Duffy said.
The new signs, embla-
zoned with blue, yellow,
white and black text carry
information on ways to re-
port crime by calling 911;
sending texts to a special-
ized, anonymous system;
calling the police depart-
ments non-emergency line;
or by visiting www.crimere-
ports.com.
We want the criminals to
know that the residents in
our communities are going
to report crime, he added.
Fifty signs to be distrib-
uted evenly throughout the
city were created this year,
and Duffy intends to have
more made in 2012.
Neighborhood leaders will
decide whether to place
them in the most visible ar-
eas, like near public schools,
or in areas known for their
high crime rates. Leaders
said they would discuss the
signs and conduct phone
calls to fellow leaders within
the next month, and Depart-
ment of Public Works em-
ployees will likely be respon-
sible for hanging the signs.
Updated crime watch signs unveiled

or some, its
vacation.
For others,
its blockbuster mo-
vies. For others
still, its outdoor activities. For
hardcore geeks, the summer pri-
marily means convention season.
The meaning of this has un-
doubtedly changed over the years.
Sure, they existed when my par-
ents were growing up on Star
Trek and the like, but in my life-
time, Ive seen them transform
from small niche gatherings to
multi-million dollar extravaganzas.
Comic cons, for example,
used to center around writers
and artists who, while wor-
shipped by fans, remained rela-
tively unknown to the general
public, but now big-name movie
stars and major studios have
made these events a whole new
ballgame, attracting millions of
people to cities on both the east
and west coasts.
Whether its E3 in Los Angles
or San Diego Comic-Con, its
clear that things will never
again be like they once were.
Both bloggers and the main-
stream media bombard you with
every minutia of information
that comes out of them, telling
you about the latest and great-
est in just about every form of
entertainment outside of sports.
Its become an annual ritual
now, and like its athletic coun-
terpart, its a marathon that
tests the endurance of all its
participants, whether it be its
big brands or small players.
This has been both good and
bad for fans. On the positive
side, geeks are finally seeing
their interests legitimized in the
eyes of the public. Successful
movies have allowed their be-
loved characters some long-
overdue exposure, and even the
term geek has gone from a
bullys taunt to a badge of hon-
or. With the backing of some of
the largest multi-media compa-
nies in the world, our interests
are not only here to stay, but
theyre quickly becoming pre-
ferred pastimes.
On the flip side, some fans
may not want to share. Many
liked it when the adventures of
Captain America were their
best-kept secret, and who wants
to play games that practically
play themselves just so anyone,
regardless of skill level, can play
right through? Maybe theyd
rather meet a humble artist
over an arrogant movie star, and
wasnt it great when you didnt
have to wait in a line all day
Horror fans chat with guests at the Saturday Nightmares convention.

damCarolla has a lot to be happy about
these days, but that doesnt mean hes
ready to give up ranting just yet.
The radio personality and stand-up comedi-
an will perform at Gypsies Lounge & Night-
club at Mt. Airy Casino Resort on Saturday,
June 25, at 8 p.m.
First introducedtomany as the co-host of the call-in
advice radio showLoveline from1995 until 2005, Car-
olla said that host Dr. DrewPinsky was a fan of a char-
acter he was portraying on another program on the
same station and asked him to appear on the show.
The transition from traditional comedian to radio
host was an easy one, he said.
For me, it was exactly what the doctor ordered,
pardon the pun. I always liked comedy, but I like sort
of reality comedy a lot more than joke-based stuff,
Carolla said.
His fame grew when he co-created two
successful shows for Comedy Central -
The Man Show in 1999 and Crank
Yankers in 2002. Creatively, Carol-
la said he experienced both ex-
tremes in television when it
came to creative control.
It really runs the gambit
from pretty much autonomy,
whichis doingCrankYankers
for Comedy Central where
they pretty much sat back and
cut you a check and leave you
alone, versus doing a sitcom pi-
lot for CBS where theyre just up
your butt, arguing about what col-
or the curtains should be over the
sink in your fake kitchen and unnec-
essarily scrutinizing and basically mi-
cromanaging every creative fiber that was
once in this project and just killing it eventually,
he recalled.
Its always a horrible experience creatively. They
never make the product any better; they always hurt
the product.
In 2007, he released The Hammer, a semi-auto-
biographical independent film that he co-wrote and
starred in. Loosely based on his early life as a con-
struction worker and boxer, the comedy was praised
as one of the best sports movies of the year. Despite
receiving positive reviews, Carolla doubts he will be
making another movie any time soon, saying that the
only scripts they are truly interested in making have
big names like Adam Sandler attached.
As far as me just heading over to Hollywood and
going, Hey, Ive got an awesome idea for a movie,
thats not going to happen, he said.

just to watch one Q&A panel?
One dollar entry fees have
now become hundred-dollar
weekends, and simple au-
tographs have gone from free
bonuses to small investments.
And as more and more un-
related events, like Twilight
sneak peeks, invade our sa-
cred ground and shift its dy-
namic completely, it becomes
harder and harder to even
find a vendor selling comics
amongst the corporate mer-
chandising overload.
For me, its all bittersweet.
My con experience began at
the Days Inn in Scranton,
where my father would take
me every time they held one
to pick up some comics at
quiet shows tucked away in a
small ballroom. Sure, it was
just a few kids playing Mag-
ic: The Gathering card
games and independent shops
unloading their overstock, but
there was something truly
great about sifting through
those hundreds of books for
that one special stack to take
home.
As I grew older, Id still go
now and again, but then other
conventions began catching
my attention. As a movie buff,
I was elated to discover hor-
ror movie conventions like
Monster-Mania in New Jersey,
where it wasnt just about
buying things, but about
meeting celebrities of all
kinds and sharing unique
experiences with them.
As an adult, however, I
became more and more cogni-
zant of the increasing costs of
such epic weekends.
As the guests get bigger at
these events, so do the costs.
By the time organizers pay
the celebrities, the hotel, the
staff, and factor in the promo-
tion and production costs,
there probably isnt much left
for them, so now they not
only charge you per autograph
at these things, but they even
hit you up for money to take
a picture with a guest on your
own camera.
By the time you pay for
gas, tolls, a hotel room, and
entry fees, youre already
broke, yet they expect you to
also have enough to blow on
personalized merchandise?
You better have a stable job
to return to on Monday be-
cause youre definitely putting
a major dent in your bank
account.
Convention season, for me,
kicked off with Saturday
Nightmares, a classic horror
movie con held in East Ruth-
erford, N.J., from June 3-5. In
addition to meeting film leg-
ends like Martin Landau,
Bruce Dern, and Tippi He-
dren, I was able to interview
Doug Bradley of Hellraiser
fame, watch cult-favorite
Martin with its star John
Amplas, listen to Sid Haig tell
stories from his 50 years in
show business, and talk to a
good portion of the cast of
the original Dawn of the
Dead about their favorite
memories of the film.
Even as I prepare for Wiz-
ard World Philadelphia Comic
Con this weekend, where Ill
hobnob with the likes of Lou
Ferrigno, Bruce Campbell,
Pam Grier, and Billy Dee
Williams, Ill never forget
where it all started for me.
Scranton held its own com-
ic con this past weekend at
Johnson College, and with a
simple three dollar entry fee
and about $30 in my pocket, I
was able to walk away with
two bags full of comics and a
little nostalgia. I didnt need
to spend my life savings to
talk to the talented writers
and artists who were more
than willing to sign comics
for free that were being sold
for much less than their re-
spective cover prices, and I
found those same deals from
friendly vendors that built up
my collection in the first
place.
So what am I trying to say
with this column full of mixed
messages? Please, if you have
even a feigning interest in
geekery, do yourself a favor
and hit at least one of the
major conventions, such as
the various Wizard World
cons. You will have an over-
whelmingly fun experience no
matter how much youre will-
ing to spend. Youll leave with
a hundred stories and maybe
even some new friends.
But, at the same time, be
sure to also support those
smaller cons held throughout
the country year-round. Not
only will you probably find
the coolest Wolverine T-shirt
you ever saw in your life,
youll also walk away with a
lot of love for an ever-grow-
ing, yet still intensely person-
al, culture.

he popularity of teen angst
in TV and films has result-
ed in a steady stream of
brooding young actors who walk
lonely streets in long black coats,
trying to emote dark feelings. Of-
ten they are so wooden the scenes
come across as trite.
Thats not the case with The Art
of Getting By. The film is loaded
with teen-angst moments that have
a more realistic feel because of su-
perbperformances byFreddieHigh-
more andEmma Roberts. Their act-
ing resonates with such depth that
the angst isnt a dark costume
slipped over the actors but a deep
feeling consumedandthensweated
out through every pore.
Highmore plays
George Zinavoy, a
high-school senior
who sees home-
work as a trivial an-
noyancewhencom-
pared with the
larger concerns of
living. Hes so con-
sumed with the
topics of life and
death that hes cre-
ated a social bubble
around himself.
Sally Howe (Ro-
berts) provides the
first reason for George to look beyond
his emotional barricades.
Teen-angst films often are comical, as
with Charlie Bartlett, or melodramat-
ic, as with Twilight. The Art of Get-
tingBy is more heartfelt. Newcomer di-
rector/writer Gavin Wiesen shows
great maturity by having his actors play
the angst in a realistic tone. Thats what
makes the deep emotional moments so
strong.
Everyone is so confident of the
strengthof the performances, they dont
hesitate to enter areas usually consid-
ered taboo for the genre. When High-
more cries, its a nice contrast tothe usu-
al depictions of intense physical explo-
sions or long passages of silence. Its re-
freshing to see such a natural reaction.
The filmhas a fewscript problems, es-
pecially a secondary story about Ge-
orges parents. But when it focuses on
the sweet, confusing, frustrating and
truthful relationship between the cen-
tral characters, The Art of Getting By
shows that even a well-worn genre can
be given new life.

o there are these aliens, you see, who have divided the universe
into 3,000 or so sectors and have chosen one being from each
planet someone absolutely fearless to wear a green ring
that brings superpowers and helps the group maintain peace and order.
On Earth, that person is Hal Jordan (Ryan Reynolds), a hot-shot fighter-
jet pilot given his ring by a dying alien who crash-lands on our planet.
The ring comes witha lantern
that is used to charge it when its
batteries run low. The lantern
kind of resembles a funky bong,
and if you were to make use of
one before seeing Green Lan-

aving done Ebenezer

once again plays a cynical old
grouch taken on a journey of
salvation by cute tykes. This
time, with penguins!
Purists may be disappointed that Mr.
Poppers Penguins has ditched the per-
forming-birds storyline of the childrens fa-
vorite in favor of the familiar workaholic
dad drifting away fromhis kids template.
The film is just another slice off a stale
loaf, but its earnest and benign, even fun-
ny and has no ingredients that are bad for
you, unless you are allergic to sap.
Carreys Tom Popper is a fast-rising
New York City real-estate wheeler-dealer
one promotion away from the corner of-
fice. His climb to the top has distanced
him from his ex-wife and two kids. He
adores them and maintains both house-
holds in mega-affluent style, but where
nonfinancial obligations are concerned he
hasnt a clue. When he tries to advise his
teen daughter on the school-dance snub
that threatens to ruin her whole entire life
forever, she is thoroughly mortified at his
meddling. Hes really not to blame,
though. His own dad was an explorer for-
ever off adventuring throughout Toms

but Hal remains a wholly un-
believable creation some-
one who accepts these mind-
blowing discoveries with a
shrug and goes with the flow.
The 3-D in Green Lan-
tern is particularly good, but
there are bigstretches during
which you can tell Reynolds
is standing alone on a green
screen, interacting with ob-
jects and creatures not really
there. The villain is a gigan-
tic, planet-devouring mon-
ster going around killing
Green Lanterns by feeding
on their supposedly non-ex-
istent fear. The climactic bat-
tle between the eponymous
hero and the huge octopus
thing is well done but lasts
only a few minutes.
In fact, for a comic-book
movie, Green Lantern is
surprisingly light on action
and fun and heavy on talk. I
never read the comics, so I
have no idea howfaithful any
of this is tothe source materi-

PENGUINS
Everyone whos reading this
has exactly the same chance of
making my next movie. Im seri-
ous. I might beonekickabovethe
personreadingthis inthat I could
probably get a meeting.
This didnt impede his success
in other mediums, however. His
2010 book, In Fifty Years Well
All Be Chicks, made the New
York Times Best Seller List, and
after his morning radio showwas
cancelled, he founded his own
podcast, The Adam Carolla
Show, and offered it for free on
his website.
The podcast became a busi-
ness. It started making money. It
startedgettingadvertisers. It was
a big thing when people were do-
ing this thing where they would
go to adamcarolla.com and click
on the Amazon banner and buy
whatever they had to buy off of
Amazon. We made so much mon-
ey that month just fromthemdo-
ing that that it really said to me,
Wow, people are listening and
theyre motivated. Lets keep the
pirate ship steaming forward, he
said.
The showwent on to break the
Guinness World Record for the
most downloaded podcast ever,
receiving over 59 million unique
downloads. This prompted him
to turn down a three-year, multi-
million-dollar national radio syn-
dication deal, feeling comfort-
able that his fans would support
him.
Whether you do a late-night
show or a sitcom or a terrestrial
radio show or a satellite radio
show or a podcast or you own a
dirigible, it doesnt really much
matter. Its how many ears and
eyeballs you can get, and if you
canget those ears andyoucanget
those eyeballs, then its a busi-
ness. If you cant, then you can be
on NBC in primetime and be out
of business. Its really just about
that.
The now47-year-old comedian
is sure to continue to entertain
audiences with his relatable hu-
mor and quick wit during Satur-
days performance.
My bedroom has turned into
my kids bedroom. Its filled with
plastic castles and ponies and
trinkets and crap everywhere,
and I thought, Would this have
worked with our parents? Could
you imagine taking your big
wheel and your Stratego game
and just spreading it out all over
your parents bedroom? It would
be unthinkable, right? Carolla
observed.
I dont know really whats go-
ing on, but I do know that there
are more of my kids toys in my
bedroom than I owned, toy-wise,
my entire life outside of my par-
ents bedroom, and that is a sad
state of affairs.

ukanya Roy, winner
of the 84th Scripps
National Spelling
Bee, returned to Abington
Heights Middle School
June 13.
A 14-year-old eighth
grade student at Abington
Heights Middle School and
a three-time winner of the
Times Leader/Scripps NE-
PA Regional Spelling Bee,
Roy competed at the event
for the third consecutive
year near Washington, D.C.
on June 2.
She was transported by lim-
ousine and escorted by the
South Abington Police Depart-
ment Monday, paid a visit to
Abington Heights High School,
the districts elementary schools
and administration building be-
fore returning to the middle
school .
Roy, accompanied by her par-
ents, Abhi and Mousumi Roy,
was greeted by her classmates,
who lined the sidewalks with
signs congratulating her on her
achievement.
It was really amazing. I
couldnt believe that everyone
was out here supporting me and
cheering me on, said Roy.
It was really great to be back
because I really did miss Abing-
ton Heights Middle School in
the two weeks I was away. So it
was so great tosee all these fa-
miliar faces and see the school
again.
An assembly was held in the
school auditorium with a video
highlighting Roys journey, from
winning the spelling bee to her
appearances on CNN, Live!
With Regis and Kelly, Jimmy
Kimmel Live and her meeting
intheOval OfficewithPresident
Barack Obama.
The one word I think we all
know how to spell is pride, and
thats what this all about today
pride, said Lackawanna Coun-
ty Commissioner Corey
OBrien.
OBrien and Lackawanna
County Commissioner Michael
Washo were two of the special
guests in attendance at the as-
sembly. They congratulated
Roy, and Washo presented her
with a proclamation from the
Lackawanna County Commis-
sioners, OBrien, WashoandA.J.
Munchak, that declared Mon-
day, June 13, 2011, as Sukanya
Roy Day inLackawanna County.
Other special guests in at-
tendance Monday were Abing-
ton Heights Superintendent Mi-
chael Mahon and State Senator
John Blakes Regional Director
Lawrence D. West.
On June 8, Blake introduced a
Senate Resolution honoring
Roy for winning the Scripps Na-
tional Spelling Bee.
West extended an invitation
to Roy and her family to receive
the resolution on the Senate
floor in Harrisburg some time
this week.
Lieutenant Governor Jim
Cawley and Governor Tom Cor-
bett each sent proclamations
congratulating Roy on her
achievement.
Mahon encouraged students
in attendance to look at Roys
achievement as aninspirationto
fuel their own success.
Perhaps through one of the
students in this roomis a world-
class novel, or perhaps there will
be an extraordinary piece of mu-
sic produced in this room. Per-
haps someone who is working
so hard in our robotics program
will develop something that will
change the lives of thousands of
people, said Mahon.
Maybe that will happen, be-
cause we know that it can.

One pitch that missed the

But what unfolded in the bottomof

the Tigers (19-3), who held a 2-0
lead after Papi and Mike Healey
came through with back-to-back
RBI singles inthetopof thethird.
That inning ended with run-
ners stranded on second and
third, however, and there was a
sense that the Tigers missed a
chance to take control of the
game.
So when Northern (23-5) led
off thebottomof thefourthwitha
pair of singles against Healey,
Tunkhannocks starter, the ten-
sion on the field rose.
A sacrifice bunt was mishan-
dled in the field and the Tigers
were charged with two errors on
the play, pushing across a run to
make it 2-1.
Two more infield singles tied
the game upwithnoouts andthe
bases still loaded.
I sensed a little panic, Tigers
coach Gary Custer said. Thats
why I went out there (to try and
calmthemdown).
Healey struck out the next bat-
ter, but that brought up Tuschak.
The Polar Bears leadoff hitter
wasselectedinthesixthroundby
the NewYork Mets in last weeks
Major League Baseball Draft.
He quickly displayed his pedi-
gree, keyingonan0-1fastball that
stayed up in the zone, blasting it
just beyondthefenceinright-cen-
ter for the grand slam.
I was just hopinghewas going
to make a mistake, and he did,
Tuschak said.
Given that the ball was headed
out near the deepest part of the
park, Tuschak said he was wor-
ried his shot would be tracked
down right in front of the wall.
But there was enough juice to
clear thestadiumandgivethePo-
lar Bears a 6-2 lead.
Healey responded immediate-
lywithapairof strikeouts, but the
damage had been done.
Wegot thehits weneededand
got the breaks, Northern coach
Brian Robison said.
Tunkhannock cut the deficit to
6-3afterjust twobattersinthetop
of the fifth, as Ty Saylor doubled
homeKyleCuster, wholedall bat-
ters with three hits in the game.
Northern ace Vince Apicella
shut things down from there,
however, retiring the next three
Tigershefacedtoblunt Tunkhan-
nocks momentum.
The junior lefty finished with
eight strikeouts and no walks in
the complete-game victory.
He was right there all game,
GaryCuster saidof Apicella, who
has an offer to Division I Coastal
Carolina. He mixed in his off-
speed stuff well and I think it
threwus off guard.
Apicella did not allow another
hit after Saylors double in the
fifth, as the Tigers had just one
baserunner for the rest of the
game, thanks toa Northernerror.
The Polar Bears committed
four errors inthegame, including
one by each outfielder after the
first three innings.
I guess it was probably a little
bit of the nerves kicking in, Tus-
chak said.
Healey echoed that sentiment,
saying everyone in the Tigers du-
gout had their share of nervous
energy early on in the day.
The energy turned to disap-
pointment by games end, as the
team received its silver while be-
ing cheered on by the large con-
tingent of orange-clad fans who
made the trip from Tunkhan-
nock.

Yazy Arbello will start for the Eastern
Division Tuesday in the Midwest League
All-Star Game.
Arbelo, a first baseman from Keystone
College, is leading the league in home
runs whileplayingfor theSouthBendSil-
ver Hawks. His efforts represent the most
promising start among six players with
county college or high school ties that
were selected in the 2010 Major League
Baseball Draft.
All six immediately started their pro-
fessional careers last summer.
Arbelo was the first of four Keystone
players selected in the draft and the first
of three to be taken by the Arizona Dia-
mondbacks organization.
Following his selection in the 26th
round, Arbelo excelled with the Yakima
Bears, making the Northwest Leagues
year-end, all-star team.
Arbelobatted.285in68games withYa-
kima. He had 13 doubles and 14 homers
while driving in 55 runs and was selected
as the leagues Player of the Week Aug. 9.
This season has resulted in another
Player of the Week awardandanother all-
star selection for Arbelo, who has moved
up to a higher-level Class A league.
Arbelo was named the Midwest
Leagues Player of the Week May 23.
No other player in the league had more
than 11 home runs through Tuesday
whenArbelowas leadingthewaywith16.
He also led the league in runs batting in
(51) and slugging percentage (.592)
while ranking fourth in doubles (20).
Arbelo was hitting .280 through 63
games.
Third baseman Eric Groff also put up
some impressive numbers at the plate
last season after Arizona selected him in
the 34th round last season.
Groff tied a Missoula Osprey record by
hitting three home runs in a Pioneer
League game less than a month into his
career.
The 44th-round pick finished second
on the team in homers (eight) and RBI
(40) while hitting .281 in 63 games. That
earned Groff a promotion all the way to
Class AAA for the final five games of the
season when he batted .091 for the Reno
Aces of the Pacific Coast League.
Like many other second-year players,
Groff has been waiting to get started this
season. He returns to Missoula, which
opens the season Monday in Helena.
Relief pitcher Victor Lara remains a
teammate of Groffs. They played togeth-
er at Keystone and in Missoula last year
after Lara was drafted in the 34th round.
Lara will return to Missoula after
strugglingtherein2010. Hewent1-5with
one save and an 8.02 earned run average
in 17 games. In 21 1/3 innings, Lara al-
lowed 27 hits and17 walks while striking
out 22.
Sean Murphy, the other Keystone play-
er selected last year, started his season
June 12 with a strong pitching perform-
ance to lead the Stockton Ports to a Cali-
fornia League victory in Bakersfield.
Murphy went six innings and gave up
just one run on six hits and a walk while
striking out five while earning the win.
The victory improvedMurphy to4-0as
a professional. He was 3-0 with two saves
and a 2.57 ERA in 14 games as a reliever
last year. In 21 innings, he yielded just 15
hits andeight walks whilestrikingout 32.
Dan Winnie, a Lackawanna College
player selected by the Atlanta Braves in
the 16th round, is returning to Danville,
Va. of the Appalachian League after fin-
ishing the season there in 2010.
Winnie pitched two scoreless innings
in his only appearance with Danville. He
started out with the Braves team in the
Gulf Coast League where he was 4-2 with
a 5.79 ERA in 14 games, including 10
starts.
In 42 innings, Winnie gave up 52 hits
and 15 walks while striking out 35.
Lackawanna Trail graduate Jacke Hea-
ley was selected by the Houston Astros
out of Youngstown State in the 27th
round last season.
Healey batted .170 with five homers
and 21 RBI in 44 games with the Tri-City
Valley Cats, a New York-Penn League
team based in Troy, N.Y.
After going 0-for-1 in one appearance
with the parent Astros in a Major League
spring training game, Healey had not
played this season prior to Fridays start
of the NewYork-Penn League season. He
was again listed on the Valley Cats roster.

Majors. Torres is 72-50 with a
4.67earnedrunaverage in11mi-

perhaps his best season at age

and 26 strikeouts in 23 2/3 in-
nings at Tulsa, Colorados team
inthe Texas League at Class AA,
the highest level he has reached
to date.
Former Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Red Baron Kevin Garner
toppedout at ClassAAAafterbe-
ing selected in 1987, but every
other 10th pick besides Torres
through 2009 made it, with var-
ying levels of success.
Michael Choice, a center fiel-
der from Texas-Arlington who
was selected by the Oakland
Athletics last season, is working
his way through the minors.
Choice has 14 home runs and is
7-for-8 stealing bases but is hit-
ting just .245 in 63 games at
Stockton of the Class A Califor-
nia League.
The list of the last 25 num-
ber-10 picks starts with Garner,
who was drafted by the Padres
out of the University of Texas as
a pitcher, but became a full-time
position player a year later. Gar-
ner played 887 games in the mi-
nors, including98overthreesea-
sons at Class AAA. He hit 14
homers, drovein39runsandbat-
ted.267asafirst basemanforthe

Three of the pitchers picked
10th in that time Lincecum,
Ben Sheets and Jon Garland
went on to strike out more than
1,000 batters in the Major
Leagues.
Barely more thantwoyears af-
ter being selected out of Stan-
ford, Drew Storen has already
saved 21 games and won eight
for the Washington Nationals.
First baseman Carlos Pena,
picked by Texas in1998, has 240
career homers, including 46 in
2007 when he also drove in 121
runs and batted .282 for Tampa
Bay in the best season of his ca-
reer. Pena averaged 36 homers
and102RBI for theRaysover the
past four seasons before moving
to the Cubs where he has 10
homers while batting .218 this
season.
Robin Ventura, Pena, Carl Ev-
erett, EricChavez, Charles John-
sonandMichael Tucker all went
on to hit more than 100 homers
in their careers.
Ventura won six Gold Gloves
and was a two-time all-star in a
career that included294 homers
and1182 RBI.
Tucker also stole114 bases.
Past performances by other
players selected with the 10th
overall pick in the MLB Draft
point to a strong chance of
Abington Heights graduate Co-
ry Spangenberg eventually end-
ing up as a Major League Base-
ball player.
Spangenberg has done every-
thing he can to get that process
moving as fastas possible, in-
cluding driving in the winning
runinhis professional debut Fri-
day night.
The 20-year-old from Clarks
Summit was thefirst player from
the first roundof this years draft
to sign a contract. Spangenberg
followed through on plans first
reported on golackawanna.com
when he signed his contract
June10 in San Diego. He agreed
to a $1.86-million offer from the
Padres, according to the San
Diego Union-Tribune, and took
batting and infield practice be-
foreSanDiegosgamethat night.
After a training camp stop in
Arizona, Spangenberg reported
to the Eugene Emeralds in time
for their short-season Class A
Northwest League opener.
Spangenberg batted second,
played second base and helped
the Emeralds complete a rally
froma three-run deficit by draw-
ingabases-loadedwalkwithtwo
outs in the bottom of the eighth
to force in the final run in a 5-4
win over the Boise Hawks.
We showed some tenacity
right there, Spangenberg said,
according to the University of
Oregons Daily Emerald. We
stayedwithit, hadsomepositive
at-bats.
Fridays game began the proc-
ess of climbing through the
ranks of Minor League Baseball
for Spangenberg, who went on
from leading Abington Heights
to the 2009 state Class AAA
championship to have award-
winning college seasons at Vir-
ginia Military Academy and In-
dian River State College in Flor-
ida.
Every 10th pick from 2001 to
2009 ultimately made it to the
Major Leagues, including two-
time Cy Young Award winner
Tim Lincecum of the San Fran-
cisco Giants.
That streak could still be ex-
tended if Joe Torres, a pitcher
drafted out of Gateway High
School in Kissimmee, Fla. in
2000 ultimately makes it to the

Cage Fight Series featherweight
title bout.
It was a matter of staying out
of trouble and weathering the
storm, Roberts said of absorb-

5-3 as a pro. He will meet Bret
Thomas (5-4) in the main event.

two wins since the loss to Ro-

Valley
View did not stop
creating the op-
portunities that made the Cou-
gars the highest-scoring team in
the first two rounds of the state
softball tournament.
Manheim Central, however,
had three arms available to keep
making sure the hits Valley View
produced in each of the seven
innings resulted in nothing more
than scoring chances.
A championship-level softball
game does not often feature 19
baserunners, but pitcher Alexa
Campbell, shortstop Samantha
Ginder and catcher Katie Van Blar-
gan combined to turn it into just
another 1-0 game.
That is the score by which Man-
heim Central ended Valley Views
season in Mondays Pennsylvania
Interscholastic Athletic Association
Class AAA semifinals at Patriots
Park.
The way it was going, it was a
one-run game, Manheim Central
coach Steve Ginder said. We felt
confident from about the third or
fourth inning on.
By the time the fourth inning
ended, Campbell had posted in-
ning-ending strikeouts with a run-
ner in scoring position twice, Sa-
mantha Ginder had gotten her first
chance to show her combination of
range and arm that would contrib-
ute to each of the final three in-
nings and Van Blargan had gunned
down runners on Valley Views only
two attempts to steal bases.
They were the reasons coach
Ginder was able to envision a 1-0
game against a team that had
scored 25 runs in just 12 innings in
the first two rounds of state play.
We only gave up 10 runs one
time all season, he said. We we-
rent going to give up 10 runs.
I was confident in that.
A Manheim Central team that
had started the season 4-3 came
away with its 21st win in 22 games
since while Valley View suffered its
first loss after 19 straight wins in a
season that included Lackawanna
League Division 2 and District 2
Class AAA championships.
Valley View advanced four run-
ners to second base in the first
three innings, but none made it to
third base.
Campbell pitched a great game,
Valley View coach E.J. Weston said.
She battled our hitters the entire
game.
I thought we hit the ball. I
thought we put the ball in play. I

just dont think we strung any
along.
Manheim Central did not get a
runner into scoring position until
it loaded the bases with one out
in the bottom of the fourth.
Gina Chieffallo got a strikeout
and an infield pop-up to second
baseman MollyAnn Mecca to end
that trouble.
The difference, however, ulti-
mately came in Manheim Central
stringing its limited chances
together.
Valley Views seven hits in sev-
en innings might have worked a
little better if they werent pro-
duced so consistently one at a
time.
Manheim Central had four of
its seven hits and both of the
walks it received in the two in-
nings that the Barons loaded the
bases.
The second chance in the sixth
inning was all that was needed to
decide a game where runs were at
a premium.
Van Blargan singled to get it
started and gave way to courtesy
runner Meagan Ebersole.
Two groundouts moved Eber-
sole around to third and walks to
the bottom two hitters in the
order loaded the bases.
Shortstop and leadoff hitter Liz
Aniska, one of the biggest reasons
Valley View was in the state semi-
finals, backpedaled and went to
reach for an overhead catch as left
fielder Gaby Santarelli came
charging in.
The ball bounced off Aniskas
glove for an error that allowed
one run to score.
The run ultimately decided a
state finalist, but the Cougars did
not stop trying to overturn the
result.
Santarelli, who also contributed
a single and double, got to the
ball as Aniska tumbled to the
ground. Santarelli threw home
where catcher Anna McElroy
stood her ground in a vicious
collision, holding on to the ball
for the third out to keep Valley
View within a run.
Katie Iyoob finished 3-for-3 by
singling through the middle with
one out in the seventh.
The Cougars got the bat on the
ball two more times, but Saman-
tha Ginder handled both, includ-
ing a charging, bobbling play
before throwing across the dia-
mond to end Valley Views season
in disappointment.
Im so proud of Valley View
softball and everything it stands
for, Weston said, and most im-
portantly the girls that represent
it.
After falling in the state tourna-
ment for the second straight year,
Weston had a message similar to
a year ago.
We will be back, he said. I
have kids that are resilient, that
have true character and I know
that their determination will get
us to a position where we bounce
back and continue to fight in the
future.

I thought we hit the ball. I thought we put the ball in
play. I just dont think we strung any along.

Pena called up to NYY
Derek Jeters injury in New
York was felt by the Scran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees.
When the New York Yan-
kees placed their shortstop
on the 15-day disabled list
with a strained right calf
Tuesday, infielder Ramiro
Pena was recalled from
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Pena hit .269 with four
homers, 17 RBI and three
stolen bases as the shortstop
at Class AAA.
Loughnane named U of S
assistant soccer coach

versity of Scranton, has
