public and private funds, bringing on a

fixed to the windows of the street-level

WILKES-BARRE Three years after
Bill Geary came to town to fill the store-
fronts at University Corners, most of
them sit empty, he filed
for bankruptcy and was
accused in California of
embezzling clients
money to set up a slush
fund to bankroll person-
al and business ventures
and investments.
Geary assumed a huge
stake in the downtown
project by taking on the
$8.4 million note on the
mortgage issued by a
consortium of 10 banks
to a company set up by
the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber of
Business and Industry.
Recently, he has picked up his efforts
raised questions about his ability to
make the grade at University Corners,
having failed at the Ocean Walk Shop-
pes property he managed in Daytona
Beach, Fla. that is in foreclosure.
In his May filing for Chapter 7 bank-
ruptcy in Los Angeles, Geary listed
debts of $39.3 million and assets of
$724,984. He statedthat his monthly in-
come was $3,871 with $2,454 of that
coming from Social Security. He also
stated that at the time he filed for bank-
ruptcy he was unemployed.
Chamber support
Still he has the support of the cham-
ber, which retains a 25-percent interest
in the property, said Todd Vonderheid,
the chambers president and chief exec-
utive officer.
Lease-up has much more to do with
the national economy, the ability of pro-

Ten years after the first charter school in
Pennsylvania opened, students continue to
flock to the alternative form of education,
thanks in part to the advent of cyber charter
schools.
The schools, which provide lessons to stu-
dents via computers in
their homes, have skyrock-
eted in popularity. The
number of enrollees state-
wide increased more than
4,000 percent, from just
582 in the school year end-
ing in 2001 to 27,779 in 2011, according to data
from the state Department of Education.
In Luzerne County, enrollment increased
tenfold, from just 63 students in 2001 to 700 in
2011.
But as the popularity of cyber schools con-
tinues to grow, so does the controversy sur-
rounding them.
Eleven schools in Pennsylvania
There are 11 cyber schools operating in
Pennsylvania.
Executives with the schools and their sup-
porters say they provide students a quality edu-

SWEET VALLEY Seventeen-year-old Ian
Lubetski hasnt stepped inside a school class-
room since first grade, but come June of next
year, hell graduate high school with honors.
A decade ago, Ians parents, Dawn and
David, were among the first families in the
state to test the waters of what was then an
emerging educational movement known as
cyber schooling.
No longer would their son attend daily
classes as his local elementary school. His
education would come via teachers at the PA
Virtual Cyber School who, with Dawns help,
would teach lessons via a computer the
school set up in their home.
It was a gamble, but Dawn said she was
confident they were making the right choice.

PHILADELPHIA Facing a
budget crisis, the president
strode to the microphone and
gently told Americans that he
planned to raise their taxes.
"Wouldyourather reducedeficits
and interest rates by raising reve-
nue from those who are not now
payingtheir fair share?" heasked.
"Or would you rather accept
larger budget deficits, higher in-
terest rates and higher unem-
ployment?"
He even used the C word
"compromise to make his
case.
The speech could have been
delivered yesterday. But the year
was 1982, and the president who
proposed swapping $99 billion in
higher taxes for $280 billioninre-
duced spending was not Barack
Obama but Ronald Reagan.
Howcouldthe standard-bearer
of conservative politics call for
raising taxes when politicians
who do so today are berated as
traitors?
One reason is the current econ-
omy, which makes any kind of
price hike whether for gaso-
line or schools or soft drinks a
burden on ordinary Americans.
Another: memories of George
H.W. Bush and Walter F. Mon-
dale.
Their defeats remind leaders
that raising taxes is almost al-
ways political kryptonite. As hu-
morist Dave Barry wrote, Mon-
dale, "on the advice of shrewd
campaign strategists from the
planet Zargon," promisedtoraise
taxes if electedpresident. Theon-
ly state Mondale won was his na-
tive Minnesota.
But even traditionally liberal-
leaning Minnesota is no longer
safe for tax-raising talk. The state
government there has been shut
down for nearly two weeks now,
strangledbydebate over whether
to raise taxes on the wealthy.
Making a mention of tax in-
creases in this climate is an invi-
tation to a brawl.
"In the last 10 to 15 years, its
become anathema," said former
New Jersey Gov. James J. Florio,
whose own support for tax hikes
contributedtohis narrowre-elec-
tion loss in 1993 to a centrist Re-
publican, Christie Whitman.
Economic woes and tax talk
have always been a volatile mix.
When Florio ran, protesters car-
ried signs with his photo sur-
rounded by swastikas.
Even so, some politicians
blame one man for much of to-
days vitriol: Grover Norquist,
leader of Americans for Tax Re-
form.
About 1,600 state and federal
officeholders have taken Nor-
quists pledge against raising tax-
es, according to the groups web-
site, which prominently features
Reagans image.
Florio argues that Norquist
and others have exploited the ec-
onomic insecurity of the working
and middle classes to protect the
wealthy. "You have the combina-
tion of the (anti-taxers) ideolog-
ical fervor ... and an affordability
crisis, where people are trying to
figure out how to pay for basic
things like gasoline or a college
education," he said. "All of those
things sort of make sort of a toxic
potion whenever you talk about
taxes."
And there lies the problem
not language, or elections, but
promises that our current fiscal
condition makes nearly impossi-
ble to keep.
Leonard Burman, a Syracuse
University economist who
worked in the Clinton adminis-
tration, said voters didnt want
huge cuts in programs such as
Medicaid, Medicare or Social Se-
curity. Only a mix of tax hikes
and spending cuts will work, he
said.
Of course, the voters who
swept anti-tax candidates into of-
fice might begtodiffer. Nate Ben-
efield, director of policy analysis
for the Commonwealth Founda-
tion, a Harrisburg, think tank
that advocates for limited gov-
ernment, says thats because
Americans are overtaxed.
Benefield favors restructuring
the so-called entitlement pro-
grams to make them financially
sustainable.
But Charles Morris, a financial
author who has been credited
with having predicted the down-
turn, said he has always been
stunned that Americans believed
their taxes were high.
Of the 30 largest industrial
countries, he said, we have one of
the lowest tax burdens.
"A fair conclusion would be
that Americans are not heavily
taxed, that the current tax code is
reasonably progressive, but cer-
tainly not confiscatory, Morris
wrote.
Economic woes, talk of tax hikes often are a volatile mix
Making a mention of tax
increases in this climate is an
invitation to a brawl.

First-time author Peter Conway de-
scribes his true crime book that chron-
icles the Dallas Township murder of
Bryan Kocis as a page turner.
Conway and published author Ar-
thur E. Stoner worked together to
write a 300-page book about the hei-
nous murder in January 2007 and the
coast-to-coast investigation.
It also goes into great detail about
the pornographic lives of Harlow Cua-
dra and Joseph Kerekes, and their ill-
fated plot to kill Kocis, whomthey con-
sidered their main ri-
val in the production
of gay adult films.
Conway, of Nor-
folk, Va., became in-
terested in the case
when he learned Cua-
dra and Kerekes be-
came the primary
suspects in Kocis death.
I lived in the same apartment build-
ing as they did here in Virginia a few
years ago, Conway said in a telephone
interview. I never knew them per se. I
rode the elevator with them a few
times and always wondered why these
two young men were driving $50,000
and $75,000 cars.
Conway created a blog that he regu-
larly maintained about the investiga-
tion and subsequent arrests of Cuadra
and Kerekes. In the year before Cua-
dras death penalty trial in March 2009,
Conway said his blog had more than
200,000 visits.
Kocis owned Cobra Video, a produc-
tion company that produced adult
films featuring young men.
Cuadra and Kerekes were partners in
their own adult production company
based out of their house in Virginia
Beach. Investigators said Cuadra and
Kerekes killed Kocis to produce mo-
vies with Sean Lockhart, a contract
modal for Cobra Video.
Conway said his interest about writ-
ing a book sparked while covering Cua-
dras trial in Luzerne County Court.

of animal offenders also had been

WILKES-BARRE Monica Jendrze-
jewski told city council Tuesday that
she is concerned about the parking sit-
uation along Coal Street.
She said she gets a lot of visitors
mostly family and parking always has
been limited, but with the road widen-
ing project that has been going on for
months and scheduled to be completed
sometime in 2010, the situation will on-
ly get worse. Jendrze-
jewski lives at 203 Coal
St.
Butch Frati, the
citys director of oper-
ations, said the $12
million PennDOT pro-
ject will widen Coal
Street to five lanes and
change the access point on Wilkes-Barre
Boulevard. He said parking along Coal
Street will be eliminated when the pro-
ject is completed.
Frati said there will be a 12-space
parklet between North Hancock and
North Grant streets and the spaces will
be available on a first-come, first-serve
basis. He said some additional spots
will be available along the old Coal
Street from the boulevard to North Han-
cock near Walters Hardware Store. The
new design includes four pull-off areas
for buses.
James May of PennDOT said there
will not be parking available because in
order to do so, more land would have
been needed to acquire from either Coal
Street Park or from the residents, and
PennDOT felt that would not be appro-
priate.
More than $1 million was spent on
acquisitions to make the street wider,
said Frati. May said residents were noti-
fied of the project details long before
construction began.
Frati said a public meeting on the
Coal Streets dearth of parking sparks concerns
Wilkes-Barre officials take action on
complaints about a barking dog and
an unkempt property.

case, Conway said.
The blog was a book in itself.
I had all this information and
there was a heavy interest about
the story. Not only in Northeast-
ern Pennsylvania but across the
country.
Conway said Stoner, an Indi-
ana native who currently re-
sides in Colorado, contacted
him about writing a book.
Right after Harlows trial
ended, Andrew called me and
asked if I was thinking about
writing a book. He wanted to
make sure I wasnt writing it. I
thought about Awriting one but
I never wrote a book before. I
had the information and he had
the writing skills. It worked out
perfectly, Conway noted.
Stoner, a former newspaper
crime reporter, has written sev-
eral books in his career, includ-
ing Legacy of a Governor: The
Life of Indianas Frank OBan-
non, and Notorious 92: Shock-
ing murders in each of Indianas
92 counties.
Conway, who owns his own
hotel marketing company, said
the writing came easy to him
considering his knowledge and
vast amounts of documents he
had about the case.
He purchased most of the trial
transcript and interviewed wit-
nesses, several of the investiga-
tors and Luzerne County Assist-
ant District Attorneys Michael
Melnick and Shannon Crake.
Stoner interviewed Kerekes
in state prison.
A jury convicted Cuadra of
first-degree murder after a two
week trial. He was sentenced to
life in prison with no chance of
parole after the jury was unable
to reach a verdict on imposing
the death penalty.
Several weeks before Cuadras
trial, Kerekes pleaded guilty to
second-degree murder and was
sentenced to life in prison.
I believe people will misun-
derstand the book by seeing its
cover, Conway said.
It really is a true crime book
and its not written in a sala-
cious way or anything like that.
The book features the trial and
the people involved in the trial. I
still read it every now and then;
it keeps you wanting to read
more.
Release in 2012
The book is titled, Cobra
Killer, Gay Porn, Murder and
the Manhunt to Bring the Kill-
ers to Justice. It is published by
Magnus Books in New York
City, N.Y., and is scheduled to be
released in February 2012.
Preordering the book began
last week on amazon.com and
borders.com.
Conway said he expects to do
several book signings in the area
after the book is released.

isting state laws that already address the
issue of spectators at animal fights. The
federal legislation also imposes penalties
up to three years in jail and fines - on
people who take minors to an animal
fight.
The U.S. HumanSociety also backs the
legislation, saying in a statement that by
addressing the issue of penalizing specta-
tors at animal fights it wouldcorrect this
remaininggapinfederal lawtoallowfor a
more comprehensive crackdown on this
barbaric activity.
Marino is a former state and federal
prosecutor whois a member of the House
Judiciary Committee.
When the issue was brought to the at-
tention of the judiciary committee, Mari-
no decided to get involved because of he
has seen first-hand the criminal culture
that surrounds animal fightingevents and
the damaging influence this environment
has on our children.
We try to protect our kids from crimi-
nal violence and yet there are no conse-
quences for thoseadults whotakeimpres-
sionable children to animal fights where
they can witness these heinous acts in
person, Marinosaidina statement when
he introduced the legislation.
While the legislation imposes federal
misdemeanor penalties for knowingly at-
tending an organized animal fight and
federal felony penalties for bringing a mi-
nor to the fight, the law would not apply
to people who did not realize they were
attendinganorganizedanimal fight or sit-
uations where two animals simply fight,
without provocation by animal fighting
organizers, according to Marinos office.
Marino says that organized animal
fighting is a secretive affair, and specta-
tors actively seek out the fights and often
need passwords to enter and are required
to pay costly admissions fees to attend
and be allowed to gamble on the fights.
All that could help a prosecutor prove a
spectator was knowingly inattendance of
an illegal fight, Marino said.
Discourage fights
The Luzerne County SPCAs Moran
said making animal fight attendance a
federal crime could help discourage the
fights themselves andencourage witness-
es to come forwardto testify against orga-
nizers.
Unfortunately, animal fighting has re-
ally made a presence in our county the
last few years, Moran said. But because
many of those involved with animal fight
organizing are dangerous career crimi-
nals, many people are afraid to come for-
ward and testify about the activity, she
said.
Congress has twice in recent years
rampedupfederal laws aimedat stopping
animal fights, Marinos office. In 2007,
lawmakers passed a bill making intestate
transport of fightinganimals or cockfight-
ing implements a felony.
In2008, inthewakeof theMichael Vick
dog fighting case, Congress passed a bill
making possession and training of fight-
ing animals a felony.
Warren Reed, the executive director of
the Humane Society of Lackawanna
County, also known as the Griffin Pond
Animal Shelter in South Abington Town-
ship, said in a phone interview that the
Marino-Sutton proposal is a logical next
step. Reedsaidanimal fighting events are
a problemin the area, saying he knows of
a veterinarian who cuts the ears of pit
bulls to help turn them into fighters.
Its very important that the people
who attend these things get punished for
it, Reed said.
If no one is attending them, they will
stop having them.

Barking dog keeps her up
Maureen Allevia of New Mal-
lery Place told council about a
loud barking dog in her neigh-
borhood that kept her awake at
night. She said the barking dog
is disturbing the peaceful quiet
of the street.
Drew McLaughlin, adminis-
trative coordinator for Mayor
Tom Leighton, said the citys
Animal Enforcement Officer cit-
ed the owner of the dog and
issued a fine that was upheld at
district judge court on July 11
the day before the council meet-
ing. McLaughlin said the fine
was $100 plus court costs.
McLaughlin said he was told
that the animal enforcement of-
ficer has been in contact with
Allevia she told him the owner
of the dog has moved from that
property, but the dog is still
there with a new tenant.
McLaughlin said another cita-
tion will be issued by animal
enforcement against the new
tenant if the barking continues.
Rodent sightings noted
Joanne Sprau of Ralph Street
said a neighboring property on
Pennsylvania Avenue that is fil-
led with garbage and high
weeds and that rodents have
been seen.
McLaughlin said the com-
plaints are being addressed. He
said the health department will
place traps to catch any rodents
or other animals in the area.
McLaughlin added that the
code office will examine the
abandoned building and, once
legally permitted, DPW will re-
move the litter and garbage
from the vacant lot. The high
grass has already been cut, he
said.
Council approved the con-
sumption of alcohol on city

Last shuttle gets closer
A
stronauts kept busy fixing and
hauling gear aboard the linked
Atlantis and International Space Sta-
tion on Saturday, as the last shuttle
flight drew closer to an end.
Atlantis pilots got a jammed storage
locker open and retrieved air purifiers
for the space station.
In more good news, they brought
back online a computer that abruptly
stopped working two days earlier, the
second computer failure in five days
aboard Atlantis. NASA wants to run
more diagnostic testing, but so far the
computer seems to be working fine,
officials said.
Engineers have yet to figure out why
the computer shut down Thursday;
cosmic radiation is suspected. The first
computer failure was traced to a bad
switch throw and quickly fixed.
Atlantis has five of these main com-
puters, each one critical for the trip
back to Earth.

dergoing chemotherapy in Havana. But
shortly after a legislative vote approv-

televised Cabinet meeting that the vice
president and his planning minister
would temporarily take on extra re-

Activists try to oust Assad
Syrian opposition figures said Presi-

has lost its legitimacy and urged him to
step down at simultaneous meetings
Saturday in Damascus and Turkey to
discuss ways for a peaceful transition
to democracy.
Some 400 people are taking part in
the National Salvation Conference in
Istanbul where participants were ex-
pected to come up with a working
paper and elect a unified opposition
front composed of Syria-based opposi-
tion figures and those in exile.
Opposition figure Mashaal Tammo
told The Associated Press that a simi-
lar conference that was to be held in
Damascus in tandem was canceled
after security forces fired on protesters
Friday, killing at least 28 people, most
of them in Damascus.
At least 14 of those killed died near a
hall in the Damascus neighborhood of
Qaboun, where Saturdays conference
was to be held.

Many of the active-duty troops said
they were moved to come out because
it is time to end the militarys ban on
openly gay troops. The march comes a
day after a federal appeals court rein-
stated dont ask, dont tell but with a
caveat that prevents the government
from investigating or penalizing any-
one who is openly gay.

NEW YORK Families and friends
of some of the 230 people killed when a
Paris-bound jumbo jet mysteriously ex-
ploded in the sky off the Long Island
coast are planningtomarkthe early eve-
ning moment with a quiet beach gather-
ing today.
The destruction 15 years ago of TWA
Flight 800 off east Moriches just 12 min-
utes after takeoff fromKennedyInterna-
tional Airport set off a mammothFBI in-
vestigation amid fears that a bomb or a
missile had downed the plane and intro-
duced sky-based international terror-
ism to U.S. shores.
The unityof familymembers after the
July17, 1996, crash and the impact of
an organization formed by one of them
for those who lost loved ones in disas-
trous circumstances are an enduring
legacy of the crash.
A 16-month federal inquiry relied on
Navy divers to pull bodies and pieces of
the plane off the ocean floor and rebuild
a 96-foot section of the Boeing 747. For
weeks, the crash drew heavy interna-
tional interest in news conferences
wheredetails of thetragedywerespoon-
fed to a worried public.
Investigators eventually determined
explosives were not to blame and
that a flaming object which people on
land said flared across the sky and met
the plane just before it explodedwas not
a missile. Instead, said investigators, it
was a piece of the plane itself that had
broken off in an initial blast that preced-
ed an even larger explosion.
The National Transportation Safety
Board concluded the plane was de-
stroyed by a center fuel tank explosion,
likely caused by a spark from a wiring
short-circuit that ignited vapors in the
tank.
Those killed in the crash included
Jack OHara, an Emmy-winning execu-
tive for ABCs Wide World of Sports,
Marcel Dadi, Frances best known coun-
try music guitarist and 16 teenagers
from Montoursville, Pa., who were go-
ing to Paris with their high school
French club.

WASHINGTON Racing the
debt clock, Congress is working
ondual trackswhilePresident Ba-
rack Obama appeals to the public
inhopes of influencinga deal that
talks have failedtoproduce sofar.
We have to ask everyone to
play their part because we are all
part of thesamecountry, Obama
said Saturday, pushing a combi-
nation of spending cuts and tax
increases that has met stiff resist-
ance from Republicans. We are
all in this together.
In his weekly radio and Inter-
net address, Obama said the
wealthiest must pay their fair
share.
As a critical Aug. 2 deadline ap-
proached, the chances that Oba-
ma would get $4 trillion or even
$2 trillion in deficit reduction on
terms he preferred were quickly
fadingas Congress movedtotake
control of the debate. At a news
conference Friday, Obama
opened the door to a smaller
package of deficit reductions
without revenue increases.
House Republicans prepared
to vote this coming week on al-
lowing an increase in the govern-
ments borrowing limit through
2012 as long as Congress ap-
proved a balanced-budget consti-
tutional amendment, which is
highly unlikely.
In the Senate, the Republican
and Democratic leaders worked
onabipartisanplanthat wouldal-
lowObama to raise the debt limit
without a prior vote by lawmak-
ers.
Still no
answer to

Congress is working to reduce
deficit while president takes
his appeal to the public.
glare of the media spot-
light.
That could be diffi-
cult: More than a dozen

noon Saturday, though
the facility was other-
wise quiet. Scores of re-
porters andcameramenareexpectedtobe
outside later on, and local television sta-
tions are going live with coverage starting
late Saturday night.

ORLANDO, Fla. Casey Anthony is
spending her last day in jail Saturday pre-
paring for an uncertain future after nearly
three years behind bars.
Orange County Jail officials planned to
release Anthony sometime today under
circumstances they refused to disclose.
Experts have said shes likely to be re-
leasedinthedeadof night, andherdefense
team will try to keep her away from the
the death of her 2-year-old daughter, Cay-
lee.
Anthony was acquitted of first-degree
murder in Caylees death earlier this
month. Shewasfoundguiltyof fourcounts
of lyingtopolice, but withtimeservedand
good behavior credits, she didnt have to
serve out her four-year sentence.
Another attorney, Charles Greene, said
Friday that Anthony was emotionally un-
stable and needed a little breathing
room after the draining two-month trial.
That could be difficult, given the vitriol
directed at Anthony. After the verdict, an-
ger spilled onto social networks like Face-
book and Twitter from people who had
spent weekswatchingthetrial onlocal and
cable television networks.

KABUL, Afghanistan A man in an
Afghan army uniform shot and killed a
NATO service member Saturday, and
the Taliban said the assailant was a
sleeper agent whohadinfiltratedthe Af-
ghan military.
Cases of foreign troops being at-
tacked by rogue policemen and soldiers
or militants impersonating them
areontheriseas international forces are
increasingly partnered with Afghan
troops preparing to take the lead in se-
curity by the end of 2014.
The shooting was part of a spate of
weekend attacks that killed at least 10
people, including three other foreign
troops. The nationalities of the slain for-
eign soldiers were not released.
Saturdays shooting attack by the Af-
ghan soldier took place at a military
compound in Helmand province that
was occupied by both Afghan and coali-
tion troops, an Afghan military official
in the area said. He said the NATO ser-
vice member was killed in his quarters
and the shooter got away before the vic-
tims body was discovered.
This was our person, Taliban
spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi said in
a text message to The Associated Press.
Now he is with us.

spective tenants to get financing,
and the overall business climate
than it has to do with Mr. Geary,
said Vonderheid in an email
Thursday.
Im confident that he and the
brokers are capable of being cre-
ative enough to properly nego-
tiate with interested parties.
The commercial space has
been made ready for tenants
with the help of $1 million the
state awarded to University Cor-
ners from the local share of gam-
bling funds in 2008.
To date $965,042 has been
drawn down from the award, ac-
cording to the state Department
of Community and Economic
Development.
Vonderheid said his office is in
contact with Geary every few
days.
As for the accusations against
Geary, Vonderheid said, Our
counsel is reviewing all docu-
ments and is speaking to Mr. Ge-
ary, who has told us about all his
financial issues, to ensure that
this project is not affected by his
difficulties elsewhere in the
country.
The only reference to the
Wilkes-Barre project was the
$293,000 Gearys Carlsberg Man-
agement Co. owes to the cham-
ber, according to his Chapter 7
bankruptcy filed in Los Angeles
in May.
But the company has run afoul
of the California Department of
Real Estate, which issued a de-
sist and refrain order against it,
Geary and Carlsberg Realty (Ma-
ryland) Inc. on April 26, prohib-
iting them from doing work that
requires a real estate broker li-
cense.
Based on a complaint filed in
November, the department audi-
ted Carlsberg Realty from April
1, 2007 to Feb. 28, 2010 and
found numerous violations, in-
cluding the transfer of funds be-
tween trusts and then to the
companys bank account to cover
operating expenses for business-
es owned by Geary.
One such transfer made with-
out the approval of the owners of
the funds involved $1.9 million
from the Ocean Walk trust ac-
count to another Carlsberg trust.
Fired in Florida
The owners of the Florida
property fired Geary as manager
last year and removed him as a
member over the alleged misap-
propriation of $1 million in
funds.
Like University Corners, the
Ocean Walk Shoppes property
has a mix of entertainment and
retail tenants.
RCTheatres acts as the anchor
in the properties and the former
president of the chain, Wayne
Anderson, referred Geary to the
Wilkes-Barre development that
also has a residential component
of 21 loft condominiums. Those
are owned and managed by an-
other company unrelated to Ge-
ary.
Anderson did not return a
message left at his business An-
derson Consulting LLC on
Wednesday.
The theater, WB Movies 14,
occupies the largest amount of
leased commercial space in Uni-
versity Corners at 77,000 square
feet, according to Vonderheid.
When added with the other
tenants, nearly 80 percent of the
leasable space is occupied and
three letters of intent are in place
for other storefronts, Vonderheid
said.
The property can survive with
the remaining vacancies, but the
goal is to fill up all the store-
fronts, he said.
Since the overall project gen-
erates enough revenue to cover
its expenses, it can continue to
absorb the costs of the remaining
retail vacancy, Vonderheid said.

LOS ANGELES Southern
Californians were making the ul-
timate sacrifice Saturdaytoavoid
the dreaded Carmageddon
leaving their cars in the garage.
Unusually light traffic flowed
freely through the nations sec-
ond-largest city despite fears of
epic traffic jams spawned by the
53-hour shutdown of a 10-mile
stretchof one of the regions most
critical freeways.
Authoritiesclosedthesegment
of Interstate 405 on the western
side of the metropolis to allow
partial demolition of a bridge,
warning motorists to stay off the
roads or plan alternate routes.
Officials were optimistic that
thepublicfar andwidehadgotten
the message, though there was
some concern that the lack of gri-
dlock would make the public
complacent and that drivers
would get behind the wheel be-
fore the freeways scheduled reo-
pening early Monday.
We hope they still listen to
what were saying and not go out
andtry todrive throughthis area,
because it is going to be congest-
ed if people do that, said Mike
Miles, a district director of the
California Department of Trans-
portation, known as Caltrans.
Mayor Antonio Villaraigosa
flew over the city in a helicopter
and said it was clear there were
far fewer cars on freeways and
streets than normal, but he cau-
tioned at a midafternoon news
conference that there were hours
to go.
Its been one of the most quiet
Saturdays Ive seen in forever,
said Steven Ramada, who had ex-
pected to hear lots of cars honk-
ing in front of his Sherman Oaks
home but instead only heard
news helicopters.
Everyones callingthis Carma-
geddon weekend, but it feels like
copter-geddon over where we
live, he said.
Not everyone was cooperating,
though.
California Highway Patrol Offi-
cer Charmaine Fajardo said a 74-
year-oldmanwas arrestedfor jog-
ging on the closed freeway after
police told himhe couldnt do so,
and one or more bicyclists also
wereinterceptedontheroute. Fa-
jardo said officers now have or-
ders toarrest anyone tryingtoen-
ter the shuttered freeway.
Additionally, a suspected
drunkendriver was arrestedafter
going around barricades to enter
the freeway, Fajardo said.
Progress on demolition of the
half-century-old Mulholland
Bridge was on schedule, Villarai-
gosa said. Powerful machines
with long booms hammered
awayat thesouthsideof thespan,
which is being removed to allow
the interstate to be widened. The
plan is to leave the north-side
lanes standing until the south
side is rebuilt.
Weve made great progress,
Villaraigosa told reporters at the
citys emergency operations cen-
ter.
Gail Standish, 47, peddled
from Beverly Hills with her bicy-
cling club to a 405 overlook a
quarter-mile from the closed
span.
Everybodys calling this week-
endCarmageddon, but seeingthe
freeway empty it feels more post-
apocalyptic, Standish said.
Authorities looking at the po-
tential impacts of the$1billionin-
terstateproject spent months giv-
ing the public dire warnings. The
event got its name when Los An-
geles County Supervisor Zev Ya-
roslavsky told an early June press
conference that this doesnt
need to be a Carmageddon if
people avoided driving.
Althoughnomajor delays relat-
ed to the closure had occurred by
midafternoon, a major test of was
likely in the evening when Major
League Soccers Los Angeles Gal-
axy, featuring David Beckham,
was scheduled to play Spanish
heavyweight Real Madrid at Me-
morial Coliseum south of down-
town.
Demolitionworkisexpectedto
be completed by 2 a.m. Monday,
followed by cleanup and reopen-
ingof thefreewayat 6a.m. Anoth-
er 53-hour closure will be re-
quired in the future to demolish
the north side of the span.

PUBLIC RECORDS
WILKES-BARRE A man suf-
fered serious head trauma after
he was struck by a vehicle Satur-
day morning at the intersection
of AcademyStreet andSouthRiv-
er Street.
The accident occurred at ap-
proximately 10:12 a.m. Saturday.
After the victim was transported
to an area hospital, Wilkes-Barre
police reconstructed the acci-
dent.
Sgt. Tom Harding of the
Wilkes-Barre Police said the vic-
tim crossed South River Street
while headed eastbound on A-
cademy Street on a bicycle, but
droppedsomething as he crossed
the street. He then parked his bi-
cycle on the sidewalk and headed
back into the intersection on foot
to retrieve the item.
As he reentered the roadway
he was struck by a black Chevro-
let Blazer SUV that was turning
left fromAcademy Street into the
northbound lane of South River
Street, Harding said.
Harding said the pedestrian
suffered serious head trauma in
the accident and was transported
by ambulance to Geisinger
Wyoming Valley Medical Center
for emergency care. The manwas
alive and conscious when emer-
gency responders arrived, Hard-
ing said, but was not responsive.
Harding said the driver of the
SUV had the right of way as the
left turnsignal at the intersection
was green at the time of the acci-
dent. The driver submitted to a
voluntary blood alcohol test,
Harding said. Police are still
awaiting the results of that test,
but Harding said the driver
showed no outward signs of in-
toxication.
There were no passengers in
the vehicle that struck the pedes-
trian, he said.
Police have not released the
names of the persons involved in
theaccident. Geisinger Wyoming
Valley Medical Center does not
release medical information
about accident victims unless a
name is provided.
Harding said any charges
would come following the com-
pletion of the accident recon-
struction units investigation.

HARRISBURG A measure
that could expose a mountain of
spending data about state gov-
ernment to greater public scruti-
ny went into law with little fan-
fare late last month, but imple-
menting it has already raised sig-
nificant logistical issues.
The Pennsylvania Web Ac-
countability, Transparency and
Contract Hub, or PennWATCH,
as it is known, was one of the
first measures Republicans
pushed out of the House this
spring after reclaiming majority
control from the Democrats. It
became law with Gov. Tom Cor-
betts signature on June 30.
The state court system has al-
ready begun a review to deter-
mine if it violates the constitu-
tionally ensured separation of
powers between the three
branches of state government.
The site will be run by the Of-
fice of Administration under
Corbett, a change the Senate in-
serted after the House had
placed it under the state treasur-
ers office.
By the end of next year, people
should be able to go online to see
details about every funding ac-
tion or expenditure paid out
with state or federal funds, in-
cluding the name and address of
recipients and the funding
source. The site will also say
howmuch state revenue was col-
lected during the previous
month.
Every month, the site will re-
port the name, position and sala-
ry of every employee. After Jan.
1, 2013, it also will provide an an-
nual listing for each employees
total compensation, including
any bonuses.
The information has to remain
online for eight years.
There are exceptions for re-
cords that are not subject to dis-
closure under the Right-to-Know
Law, or that pertain to specific
provisions of state laws govern-
ing the retirement systems for
state employees and teachers.
A second phase of implemen-
tation should result, by the end
of 2014, in disclosure of descrip-
tions of the programs being fund-
ed and performance measures.
The bills prime sponsor, Rep.
Jim Christiana, R-Beaver, said
his goal was to improve public
accountability.
This is the checkbook of the
citizens of Pennsylvania, and
they deserve to see where were
spending it, he said. Because
this is going to be complete
transparency, it will change com-
mon practices of the people
working in state government,
the decision-makers, because
they know we can be audited, 24
hours a day, by people at their
home computers.
The Office of Administration
has begun writing system re-
quirements and putting together
a project team, laying the
groundwork to implement the
law, said agency spokesman Dan
Egan. He said it will be a chal-
lenge to tie together far-flung
computer networks.
Just from a technology per-
spective, we dont know what
were walking into, Egan said.
We dont know what their sys-
tems are like, we dont know
how up-to-date they are, the dif-
ferences in how they capture
their data.
The state court system has al-
so begun looking at what the
new law requires. In addition to
the technical questions, some
have raised concerns that it may
improperly infringe on the judi-
ciarys independence.
TomDarr, a spokesman for the
Administrative Office of Pennsyl-
vania Courts, said that will ulti-
mately be up to the seven Su-
preme Court justices to decide.
What we will do is look at the
issues, convey what they may be
to the court, and it will have to,
in its administrative capacity,
make a decision whether there
are issues, either constitutional
or practical, that need to be ad-
dressed, Darr said.
Also ahead will be decisions
about howmuch detail will be on
the site regarding the individual
expenses of state lawmakers.
Christiana said the bill gave the
administration some flexibility
to work through those types of
issues with legislative leaders.
The PennWATCH bill did not
attract any negative votes going
through both chambers of the
Legislature, but a series of Dem-
ocratic-proposed amendments
were voted down along party
lines.
Some of the defeated amend-
ments would have linked spend-
ing to specific legislative dis-
tricts, required state-agency
credit card statements to be sear-
chable, and included informa-
tion about state-bonded indeb-
tedness.
While some aspects of gov-
ernment spending will be more
open, its a missed opportunity
for greater progress, said House
Democratic caucus spokesman
Bill Patton.
Barry Kauffman, executive di-
rector of Common Cause of
Pennsylvania, described Penn-
WATCH as a hopeful step for-
ward.
If theres a flaw in the law, I
think it is the fact that it didnt
create specific criteria to deter-
mine how precise and how easy
it should be, Kauffman said.
We think it should be usable
with any off-the-shelf spread-
sheets.
The final verdict on its effec-
tiveness will have to wait until
the site is operational.
SPENDI NG DATA Goal of measure was to improve public accountability
PennWATCH law will shine light on spending

BUFFALO, N.Y. Combat
veterans are known to come
home from war hungry for
adrenaline, taking up things
like motorcycle racing or sky
diving to satisfy their cravings.
And some who
come home with-
out arms or legs
are simply deter-
mined to do the
things they did
before war rede-
fined normal.
James Hackem-
ers family insists
the father of two
who lost both his
legs to a roadside
bomb in Iraq was no thrill-
seeker, but his fatal fall from a
roller coaster highlights the
challenge of balancing the de-
sire for both excitement and
normalcy with the reality of
new disabilities.
He just had a thirst for life
and he just wanted to do as
much as possible, the 29-year-
old Army sergeants sister, Jo-
dy Hackemer, said following
her brothers death at Darien
Lake Theme Park & Resort in
upstate New York last week.
In fact, riding a roller coast-
er can be a good way for veter-
ans to feel the rush they so
crave after living in a hypervi-
gilant state while in a war
zone, far better than driving
too fast or abusing drugs or al-
cohol, according to experts
who say those high-risk behav-
iors are all too common. An Ar-
my report last July noted a rise
in risky behavior among sol-
diers, attributing it partly to
the ramped-up tempo of mili-
tary life and faster deploy-
ments.
Going on a high-speed roll-
er coaster is not the same as
getting shot at and the danger
involved with it is next to
nothing, but its just the inten-
sity of the high speed, the
curves and everything else
that are just so exciting, said
Dr. James Tuorila, a psycholo-
gist whos worked with veter-
ans and their adrenaline ad-
diction for more than 25
years.
The problem in Hackemers
case was he chose a roller
coaster the Ride of Steel
that had been a favorite before
his 2008 injury that specifi-
cally requires riders to have
two legs: Its only restraints are
a fabric seatbelt and a T-
shaped lap bar that comes up
between the legs. His will to
ride was no match for physics,
and he was lifted and thrown
to his death during a
family outing July 8.
Mr. Hackemer did
not have the physical
attributes necessary
to be properly re-
strained, said Gene-
see County Sheriff Ga-
ry Maha, who ruled
the death an accident
and said no criminal
charges would be fil-
ed.
Obviously, it was a risk, Jo-
dy Hackemer said. But he
never would have thought any-
thing like this would have hap-
pened, theres no doubt in my
mind.
With the Defense Depart-
ment reporting 31,922 military
members wounded in Iraq and
12,593 in Afghanistan since
the start of combat operations
as of July 14, plenty of veterans
face dramatic changes in their
physical abilities and limita-
tions.
Coaster death suggests
veterans are thrill-seekers

ners for members of the commu-
nity who are in need of funds for

ey tothe recreationboardof West

libraries.
"We are simply people helping
people," said Carmella Dessoye,
a long-time member, who re-
members challenges the club has
faced since she became a mem-
ber. At one point, the members
were without a place to meet.
Members credit Ed Zalepa Sr.
with"savingthe group," allowing
members to meet twice a month
at his home until they foundtheir
present home on Eighth Street in
West Wyoming.
"We enjoy being in West
Wyoming," Skolnick said. "They

Eagles way of showing gratitude
for their service to the communi-
ty.

KINGSTON TOWNSHIP
St. Thereses Church was buzz-
ing with the sound of laughter
and fellowship on Saturday as
the NEPA Red Hat Society
Queens Council held a Red Hat
closet sale, selling new and
gently used items to members.
The sale was awash in red
and purple, the colors that the
"red-hatters," as they are
known, have adopted as their
own.
"Many of our members dont
have the opportunity to buy so-
ciety related clothes and acces-
sories ," said Romaine Stout,
head of the local chapter. This
event gives them the opportuni-
ty to do that and to get to know
other members of the society."
Stout said the Red Hat socie-
ty was founded in 1998 and that
the local group, the Ruby Rose
Divas, has been in existence for
more than seven years.
"Our goal is simply for wom-
en over 50 to get together and
have fun," she said. "Our chap-
ter has attended pajama parties,
Red Hat days in other cities,
and participated in various
tours, including the candle fac-
tory."
Member Joanne Golden
sported two new red hats and a
big smile as she emerged from
the sale. Golden said it was a
"fun way to spend a Saturday
morning." Group members said
the focus of the Red Hat Socie-
ty is "fun, not funds," and the
group is not a charity but is
focused on social functions and
fellowship among its members.
Asked to share a motto for
the organization, Marie Cigar-
ski, head of the Wiser Older
Women chapter, said, "How old
would you be if you didnt know
how old you were?"
Several "red hatters" said that
society activities such as the
closet sale made them feel
"younger than ever."
The NEPA Queens Council
coordinates events of other lo-
cal chapters. The Queens Coun-
cil meets on the second Thurs-
day of each month for fellow-
ship and planning of upcoming
events.

cation with far more flexibility,
allowing them to learn at their
own pace while offering courses
not available in their home dis-
tricts.
But other education officials,
including school superintend-
ents and officials with the states
school boards association and
largest teachers union, have
raised concerns about the cost of
the schools andwhat theybelieve
to be a lack of oversight and ac-
countability.
School districts are required to
pay both brick and mortar and
cyber charter schools roughly 75
percent of the per pupil cost to
educate each student, which is
set yearly by the state. That cost
Luzerne Countys 11 school dis-
tricts a combined total of $6.5
million in 2011
Yet, local school officials have
no oversight of students to en-
sure they are getting an appropri-
ate education.
Districts are not privy to how
many hours an individual stu-
dent spends in cyber class, what
their grades are or how they per-
form on statewide academic
tests, area superintendents said.
We are paying the bill, but the
only thing we really know(about
a student) is that they are there,
said Wilkes-Barre Area School
District Superintendent Jeff
Namey, whose district paid $1.3
million to cyber schools in 2011,
the second highest of any dis-
trict. Im not saying there is not
a place for cyber charters. Par-
ents have the right to select that.
I just thinkthere needs tobe grea-
ter oversight.
Its a major concern, added
Chuck Suppon, superintendent
at the Wyoming Valley West
School District, which shelled
out $847,663. We dont know
how well a child is progressing.
Oversight becomes concern
Those concerns came to the
forefront recently after the par-
ents of a Plymouth teenager who
was taught exclusively inthe cyb-
er school system were charged
with sexually abusing him.
Police said the youth, who
lived in squalor in a home strewn
with garbage, lacked knowledge
of basic social skills, including
bathing and using a knife and
fork to eat.
In recent interview, the boys
mother insisted he did well at the
cyber school he attended, Com-
monwealth Connections Acade-
my.
There is no way to independ-
ently confirm that, however, as
privacy laws preclude the school
fromreleasing the information to
anyone, including the childs
home district, without parental
permission.
Oversight for cyber schools
lies with the state Department of
Education. Each school is re-
quired to submit an annual re-
port, but the DOE does not mon-
itor the progress of eachindividu-
al student, said department
spokesman Tim Eller.
The lack of information avail-
able to local school districts has
beena concernfor the Pennsylva-
nia School Boards Association,
said Dave Davare, director of re-
search services.
With public schools, the pub-
lic school is responsible for over-
sight. When you get into charter
and cyber charters, its the par-
ents function along with the
school, Davare said.
Suppon and Namey said thats
not in issue if the parents are ded-
icatedtoensuringthe childgets a
good education. But, just like
brick and mortar schools, thats
not always the case.
You have to have a child who
is self-motivated, Suppon said.
For some kids these schools do
work, but no one will convince
me this is an asset for the major-
ity of kids.
Schools have financial impact
The financial impact of cyber
schools is also a major concern
for cash-strappeddistricts, which
are already reeling from signifi-
cant cuts in state funding for the
upcoming school year.
Local districts have seen their
costs spiral from a combined to-
tal of just $378,071 in 2001 to
$6,535,441 in 2011.
The Hazleton Area School Dis-
trict paid out the most $1.4 mil-
lionfor161students, while Dallas
paid the least $176,848 for 20
students.
The financial hit on districts
will be even larger this coming
school year as the state budget
eliminated a program that reim-
bursed districts roughly 30 to 40
percent of the cost of each char-
ter school student.
David Broderic, spokesman for
the Pennsylvania State Educa-
tionAssociation, the states large-
st teachers union, said the elim-
ination of the subsidy will cost
districts statewide a combined
$224 million in 2011-12.
School officials have also com-
plained about the wide disparity
in the cost per student each dis-
trict pays to cyber schools.
The payment to a charter
school is based on the home
school districts per student cost,
brokenout for regular andspecial
education students. That rate va-
ries greatly by school district,
even though the cost to educate
each child at a cyber school is rel-
atively the same.
In the case of the cyber
schools, if they have one student
in each of 500 school districts in
Pennsylvania, they get 500 differ-
ent payments basedonwhat each
district spent, Davare said.
Areport releasedinOctober by
state General Jack Wagner
showedthat rates paidtoall char-
ter schools (cyber and brick and
mortar) in the 2009-10 school
year varied from $6,496 to
$16,249 per student for regular
educationstudents, while special
education student costs ranged
from $12,333 to $111,033 per stu-
dent.
Local cost disparity is seen
That disparity is present in Lu-
zerne County as well. Greater
Nanticoke Area paid $7,101 per
student for regular educationstu-
dents in the 2010-11 school year,
the lowest of any district, while
Northwest Area paid $9,073, the
highest rate in the county.
Wagner also faulted the fund-
ing structure for cyber schools,
whichhe saiddoes not accurately
reflect the actual cost they incur
to educate students.
The schools operating costs
are less because they do not have
as many fixed costs as brick and
mortar schools, such as transpor-
tation, lighting, heating and oth-
er maintenance.
Jon Marsh, executive director
of the 21st Century Cyber School
headquartered in Exton, ac-
knowledged there are some legit-
imate concerns regarding how
cyber schools are funded. But he
took issue withmany of the other
allegations made about cyber
schools.
Marshsaidhe believes local su-
perintendents have an inherent
bias against cyber schools be-
cause they dont want to lose stu-
dents and the money that goes
with them.
If you lose a child to a cyber
school there is a cost associated
with that, he said. Most Target
managers arent in favor of a Wal-
mart and most ma and pa stores
dont like Wegmans coming into
their neighborhood either. They
dont like school of choice be-
cause they dont like competi-
tion.
He vehemently disputed that
cyber schools are not held ac-
countable. He noted their curri-
culum is reviewed by the state
and they are required to file an
exhaustive annual report with
the state Department of Educa-
tion each year.
The schools also employ varie-
ty of tactics to ensure the stu-
dents are actually doing the
work, and not just logging on and
then leaving the computer to do
other things.
There are systems in place.
The machine knows what the top
application is thats running. If a
student opens up a Web page and
opens up Itunes, we knowit. Our
machine constantlygoes through
and pans the system to see what
the child is doing.
There are also methods to de-
tect if someone else is doing the
work for them, he said. For in-
stance, if a teacher suspects a stu-
dent didnt author a paper, it can
be run through authentication
checker that analyzes the writ-
ing style and other factors that
would detect if it was written by
someone else.
Do we know 100 percent that
every paper was done by that
child? No, we dont, but nor does
your school district, he said.
The method of teaching varies
by cyber school, but in general
students will log on to a comput-
er provided by the cyber school
and complete tasks assigned by
a teacher.
Most schools offer virtual
classes that require all students
to log on at a set time and take
part in class via their computer
connection.
Students can interact with the
teacher and each other by elec-
tronically raising their hands.
Students can also opt for a
more self-directed program of
study in which they are given an
assigned curriculumto followon
their own. Ateacher checks their
work and interacts with them
electronically onanas neededba-
sis.
Marsh said students and par-
ents choose cyber schools be-
cause they are dissatisfied with
the service in their own district.
For some thats because the class
is going too slow, or fast, for
them.
Satisfied parent offers praise
Liz Morales of Wilkes-Barre
enrolled her daughter, Maria,
now19, in the Pennsylvania Cyb-
er charter school four years ago
when she was in eighth grade be-
cause she was concerned she was
spending too much time socializ-
ing instead of studying.
She had fair grades, but I felt
she was getting lost in the shuf-
fle, Morales said. She has A
grades now.
The cyber school helped Ma-
ria, who needs a fewmore credits
to graduate, focus more on her
education and provided her the
chance to take classes that were
not available in her home dis-
trict, including a photography
class at an area art school, Mo-
rales said..
We got to spend more time to-
gether andI was more involvedin
her schooling, Morales said.
You look at a regular school,
how much you do you know
whats going on? You know(your
child) got an A, but what did she
learn for that A?
Marsh said other students at-
tracted to cyber schools include
those dealing with medical is-
sues that require constant atten-
tion, making it difficult to attend
classes all day. The schools are al-
so popular with athletes who
spend long hours in practice be-
cause it allows for more flexibil-
ity, he said.
Marshsaidhe understands and
sympathizes with financial hard-
ships districts are facing, but if
they want to stop the migration
to charter schools, they need to
do more to improve so that stu-
dents want to stay in their home
school district.
They dont like the fact that
dollars are leaving the district. I
understand that, But you have to
provide better service, he said.

I didnt feel hesitant at the
time, Dawn said. I went to a
conference to hear the schools
presentation to see if I felt it was
something I could do.
Today, she knows they were
right.
Not only has Ian excelled aca-
demically, earning straight As
and scoring in the advanced lev-
els on standardized state tests.
So have his three siblings, Aaron,
15, Ryan, 11, and Abigail, 9 all
of whom have also
been cyber-schooled
their entire lives.
The Lubetski chil-
dren are among thou-
sands of students
from Luzerne County
and the state who
have opted to trade
the traditional chalk-
board for a computer
screen over the past
decade.
Skyrocketing
enrollment
Enrollment in cyb-
er schools statewide
has skyrocketed since
Ian started, increas-
ing from 582 in 2001 to nearly
20,000 in 2007-2008, the latest
data available from the state. In
Luzerne County, it jumped from
63 in 2001 to 499 in 2008.
The initial decision to enter
Ian into a cyber school was
based on dissatisfaction with his
academic progress at his elemen-
tary school, Dawn said. She was
also concerned about peer pres-
sure that might be exerted on
him to engage in inappropriate
behavior.
The decision wasnt wholly
supported by her extended fam-
ily, she said, noting her father
didnt approve. Now, he, too, is a
convert.
I had a conversation the other
day with my father. He said,
When you started this I was ada-
mantly against it. I cant deny
the outcome, how they matured
and how they are.
Convincing others that cyber
schooling is a good option has
been more difficult, she said.
Shes keenly aware of the bar-
rage of criticism thats been
launched against cyber schools,
including that they lack account-
ability and harm children by in-
hibiting their ability to socialize
with others their age.
Dawn, 39, said she believes
much of that criticism stems
from ignorance over how cyber
schools operate. Her school, PA
Virtual, is diligent about ensur-
ing students are
logged on and do-
ing the work, she
said.
Students log into
a virtual classroom
and interact in real-
time with the
teacher and other
students.
The teacher will
put a problem on a
white board, and
the students work
together, raising
their hand by hit-
ting a button that
signal they have a
question.
Every couple of
minutes shell do a roll call. You
have so many seconds to re-
spond, or youre marked absent,
she said.
The school has little tolerance
for excuses, she said.
I had an incident for the first
time in nine years, I was ill and
didnt log one child onto a
screen. They didnt want to hear
it, she said. It was an excused
absence. They go by the book.
As for socialization, thats nev-
er been an issue for her children,
who are active in many outside
activities unrelated to school,
she said.
My kids go out. They have
pen pals. They socialize at
church. They have friends over,
she said.
Socializing via computers
While its true they dont have
face to face contact with their
cyber classmates, they still so-
cialize with them via the com-
puter. PA Virtual Cyber also
holds outside activities where
the kids can meet up. That in-
cluded a junior/senior prom this
past year.
The thing that upsets her
most, she said, is the perception
that the education provided by
cyber schools is inferior. Nothing
could be further from the truth.
The academic program and
PA Virtual Cyber is very rigor-
ous, she said. She spends hours
each day with each child, work-
ing as a facilitator to help them
understand the lessons.
On an easy day it would be
six hours, but usually eight, she
said. Its no different than work-
ing outside the home if you had a
full-time job.
Yes, there are kids who trans-
fer to cyber schools, thinking it
will be easier, she said. Theyre
in for a rude awakening.
You see a lot of kids transfer
out thinking its going to be an
easy ride. They get in and get a
reality check, she said. Theyre
in over the heads and bail and go
back to their home school dis-
trict.
Parental involvement
But she cautions parents: The
key to a students success lies
with the student and the parent.
People cant sign up to do this
if theyre not willing to commit
to being active in education. You
cant think youre going to put
your kids online and its a done
deal, she said. If you think in
cyber school youll be able to
slack off, not send in homework
and skip class, you will fail.
The family is looking forward
to next June, when Ian and his
fellow cyber-classmates will
graduate at a ceremony to be
held in Harrisburg. She expects
to be making that trip three
more times over the next decade
as her other three children make
their way through cyber school.
Hopefully Im going to gradu-
ate all my children from cyber
school, she said.

THE TIMES LEADER SUNDAY, JULY 17, 2011
W
ith practiced eyes my com-
mando team and I survey
the property.
Lets go, I bark. My flak-jacketed
troops and I roll out of our Humvees
and smash down the door of the
store, our semis at the ready.
Soda patrol, I shout to the gap-
ing clerk. The lady buying a lottery
ticket shrieks in terror.
But we have our sights on bigger
game.
You call this cold? I cry, waving
a 20-ounce plastic bottle of some
kind of pathetic-looking soft drink I
plucked from an appliance laughing-
ly known as a cooler.
Clear the store, I command as
my men order the customers out
and snap manacles on the clerk.
Buddy, I say to him, shoving the
bottle under his nose, from now on
when you put a sign reading ice
cold soda outside, you better mean
it.
Boy oh boy, do I ever wish I could
really do that.
Its almost enough to make you
cry when you realize that whole
generations of people have grown
up, married, bought houses and
retired without ever tasting a truly
head-splittingly cold soda on a broil-
ing summer day.
Im talking 1950s, folks, the hey-
day of the American soft drink in-
dustry, and the hardy race of people
who swigged the stuff.
Wilkes-Barres old East Market
Street had its drawbacks. But it had
its charms too, and one of them was
the plethora of stores where when
the sidewalks sizzled you could
order up a glass bottle of soft drink
so cold it would make an Eskimo
shake his head and gasp Man, thats
brutal.
My parents had a store, and here
was our system for ensuring that
our customers got an icy rush when
they popped the metal cap off a
bottle of Coke or Nehi or Squirt.
A couple of times a day Id enter
into our dungeon-like soda storage
room and come out with a case or
two of various brands. Id put the
bottles into an old-time cooler, in
our back room, that was filled with
water chilled by a block of ice a man
would bring in off a truck every day.
Hours later Id transfer those bot-
tles, so cold you could barely hold
them, to the chilled-air cooler out in
the store. So when our customers
guzzled their Mas Old Fashion, they
could barely steady themselves.
Wooooeeee! It was the cold of outer
space brought down to Earth, cour-
tesy of Mr. Mooneys emporium.
Im not sure exactly how modern
society ended up drinking cool (not
cold) soda and not knowing the
difference. Probably it has some-
thing to do with the vanishing of the
mom-and-pop store.
But I also think that around 1967
or so a chain store lord called his
henchmen together one day and said
something like Gentlemen, if we
stop chilling our sodas properly we
will make more money.
At that, everyone shouted huz-
zah, and before long there was a
story about it in Business Week
and then all the other chain store
lords, not to be outdone, said sub-
stantially the same thing and there
were more huzzahs and thats why
you cant get a really cold drink

his wife, Patricia, a retired school teacher, have twin sons, Jonathan and Steven, 26. The couple lives in
Dallas.
Youve been in automotive sales
for more than three decades. Whats
kept you in the business? Ive always
been a car fanatic. Thats howI got into
this in the first place. And I love people.
And there are no two days that are the
same. The slogan that we came up
with, Making good deals, making good
friends was mine. It truly is my motto
and how we do business. I treat every-
body like family. My employees are like
family and the customers are like fam-
ily. People ask, What do you do thats
different? and Ill say, We treat every-
body the way you would expect to be
treated. Thats kind of my credo not
only in business, but in my personal
life.
What led to your early interest in
cars? My grandfather was a tinkerer and
likedtoplayaroundwithcars. Hedjust love
to talk about cars and show me tools and
things like that. And growing up in the late
60s and 70s, there was street racing and
all other kinds of stuff going on, and a lot of
the guys were into cars, and that was kind
of the group I was in with. I bought my first
car when I was 15.
What was it? A 1964 red Malibu con-
vertible.
Hobbies or interests?Golf. Whenever I
can. I belong up in Huntsville and at Glen-
maura. The last couple of years, I havent
gotten out that much, but I try. I enjoy the
game, and when you get out on the course
you can pretty much put everything else
out of your mind and relax. I enjoy the cam-
araderie.
Music?I haveverydiversetastes. Obvi-
ously growing up in the 60s and 70s. I still
listentoa lot of that stuff. I was always a big
Bowie fan, and even Alice Cooper, AC/DC
and Elton John. But I also like country and I
listen to a lot of Sinatra.
Beatles or Stones? Beatles.
Follow sports? I follow pro and college
football. I kind of root for the Eagles, just
because theyre here, but I a grewup more
of a Giants and Vikings fan. I liked Fran Tar-
kenton. And I liked the Raiders when Ken
Stabler was there. A lot of people are die-
hards with one team. Im not like that. I
want to see a good game. With college, Im
kind of a Notre Dame fan and I like to root
for Penn State. And I like hockey, basically
because of the (local) Penguins. Hockey is
definitely a game youve got to watch live.
Television just doesnt do it.
Favoritecity?Chicago. I just loveit. Ve-
ry down to earth people, and theyve just
done wonders with the city. Its exception-
ally clean, there are great restaurants,
great places to go and everybodys just got
a great attitude and is very friendly.
Always in the fridge? In the summer-
time, Popsicles. And blueberry juice.
Favorite food? Italian.
TV? I watch all of the auction shows
withcars. I alsowatchedSeinfeld for many
years, and I like Criminal Minds, Law&Or-
der, The Big Bang Theory and Rules of
Engagement.
All-time favorite movies? Any of the
Godfather films, or Casino or Goodfel-
las. And any World War II flick. Im a huge
World War II fanand collect DVDs. That was

Frank that gave me the ability tojust
do it my way for lack of a better
term. Also, I canbeaworkaholic, and
Frank was always ... hehadthis great
outlook on life. He had MS and was
wheelchair-bound for a good por-
tion of the last years of his life, and
he maintained this optimism and
would not let it get himdown. Noth-
ing would bother him. He had this
bright outlook. He was always a very
avid golfer, and MS of course ended
that. Id be really running around,

What are you doing here? Go play
golf. That will wait until tomorrow.
One day, you wont be able to play.
He said, You dont want to play golf
everyday, but every now and then,
take advantage of it and go. He put

Arts on North Franklin Street
and the director of the Dance
Theatre of Wilkes-Barre, as the
major inspiration who enabled
her to devote her life to dance.
Lauren came to the Dance
Theatre as a junior in high
school, Malsky says. David
Blight is a very good school and
Lauren came with a great foun-
dation, but she knewshe wanted
to take dance in a different direc-
tion. We worked on her audition
tapes for Drexel and I threw
some hard stuff in the routine.
Then I thought This is pretty
tough! Should I make her do it?
But she always responded, Ill
get it, Ill get it! and she did.
Lauren is so sincere; she is no di-
va. The minute I sawher, I knew
this kidwas goingtothe top. She
didnt knowhowgreat she was.
Bilski flourished during her
time at the Dance Theatre.
Amidst a rigorous academic ca-
reer at E.L. Meyers High School
that she supplemented with 9
hours a week in dance lessons,
dance instruction for children,
dual-enrollment at Kings Col-
lege, and a plethora of other ex-
tracurricular activities Bilski
was accepted into the Pennsyl-
vania Governors School of the
Arts as one of only 10 students
statewide allowed to participate
in the jazz program. She was al-
so a finalist at the 2009 Times
Leader Best &Brightest Awards
in the Performing Arts category.
By the time Bilski enrolled in
Drexel to pursue a bachelors de-
gree in dance, she was no strang-
er to hard work or deserved rec-
ognition. Much more of both
would follow her in Philadel-
phia.
Everyone knows the college-
girl stereotype, Bilski says,
but its not true at all for dance
students. Its very demanding to
be working with professionals.
Im staying active, eating
healthy. I need to get seven
hours of sleep a night, and the
majority of my time is spent in
the studios. Even still, the pres-
sures of studying dance have not
stopped Bilski from experienc-
ing big opportunities in Phila-
delphia, giving back to her new
community, or maintaining
close ties with the place where
she grew up. Participating in
Miss Philadelphia 2010 enabled
her to do all three.
While Bilski was not a season-
ed pageant girl, she says, I had
some friends and mentors who
were very involved in the Miss
America circuit and so I decided
it might be fun, and Drexel
would match any scholarship
money I won, sothat was anadd-
edbonus. All Miss Philadelphia
contestants select a platform, an
organization or cause they sup-
port in pursuit of the crown. If
crowned, they continue to raise
money for the cause over the
year. One of Bilskis students in
Wilkes-Barre, Jenna Marx, be-
came seriously afflicted with vi-
ral encephalitis. Interested in
supporting an organization that
reached out to children with
brain injuries and illnesses, Bil-
ski contacted Marxs mother for
suggestions and came up with
Camp Cranium in Millersville.
Camp Cranium, a nonprofit
summer camp held at the Camp
Victory grounds in Carbon
County, enables children who
have had brain trauma, stroke,
brain tumors, or other brain-re-
lated illnesses to meet other
children with brain injuries in
safe, supportiveandfunenviron-
ments. With a one-to-one counc-
selor-to-student ratio, children
are able to enjoy many tradition-
al summer camp activities, in-
cluding a rock-climbing wall,
paddle boats, and of course
dance lessons. To raise funds
for the organization, Bilski host-
ed Artists for Opportunity, a va-
riety showat Malskys Downton
Arts building in March 2010.
The event, coupled with a vig-
orous donation drive, enabled
Bilski toraise$1,500enoughto
give a child the gift of summer
camp. Bilskis enthusiasm for
her cause, coupled with her
seemingly endless optimism
and energy, earned her the title
of Miss Congeniality 2010 at the
Miss Philadelphia pageant. But
the real reward, Bilski insists,
was findingCampCraniumand
the kids there who truly
changed my life. With or with-
out the pageant I will go back to
the camp and help fundraise
each and every year.
Bilski has remained true to
her word. She served as a coun-
selor for the Summer 2010
camp. While Bilski remained on
campus this summer as part of a
Drexel requirement, her week-
longbreakhappenedtocoincide
withCampCranium2011, which
she volunteered at eagerly. Art-
ists for Opportunity will be held
again this October and Bilski
promises it will be even bigger
and better.
Bilski is also a member of
Drexels Youth Performance Ex-
change, a program that sends
the universitys dancers toinner-
city schools to choreograph new
work. All of Bilskis community
service projects have not inhib-
ited her professional develop-
ment. In fall 2010, Bilski re-
ceived a three-month contract
with DanceFusion, a profession-
al Philadelphia company direct-
ed by Gwendolyn Bye. Since
March 2011, Bilski has been un-
der contract to Danse4Nia Re-
pretory Ensemble, also in Phila-
delphia. I dance for Danse4Nia
on the side, Bilski explains, I
rehearse on the weekend and
perform at shows when I can.
Bilski credits her ability to
maintain such a demanding
schedule during the school year
to the mentorship of the Drexel
faculty, particularly Olive
Prince, a modern dance teacher,
Meredith Rainey, a ballet teach-
er, and Miriam Giguere, the di-
DANCE
Bilski and the rest of the Drexel dancers are going to Singapore to perform.

NAMES AND FACES
Hourigan Vojtko
rector of Drexels dance pro-
gram.
I have served as an adjudica-
tor for the Singapore Youth Fes-
tival before, Giguere says, and
I have seen firsthand the quality
of the dance performances by
the Singapore youth, which
makes it even more remarkable
that our dancers were selected
to participate.
The Singapore Youth Festival
is a month-long artistic celebra-
tion showcasing school per-
forming arts groups across mul-
tiple arts genres. Singapore,
which encompasses 268 square
miles in Southeast Asia, is con-
sidered one of the Four Asian
Tigers (along with Hong Kong,
South Korea and Taiwan) for its
highly developed economy. Sin-
gapore Youth Festival 2011s
theme is the symphonic can-
vas. It aims to promote two key
values at the heart of the Singa-
pore Youth Festival: teamwork
and creativity. In accordance
withthis theme, Prince has cho-
reographed a new eight-minute
routine for the company entit-
led Sea of Glass. In it, the 12
dancers will represent shards of
glass that come together to
form a pane. Giguere choreo-
graphed Overture, Bilskis
two-minute solo. She will dance
the piece to open International
Night onJuly20infront of a dig-
itial media backdrop from Cir-
que du Soleil.
I chose Lauren for this solo,
Giguere explains, because she
is a remarkable performer, an
outstanding technician. Her
physical presence is verypower-
ful, charismatic. She has a big
personality and it takes a
strong, charismatic dancer to
performa two-minute solo with
a video playing behind her. As
director of the dance major, Gi-
guere auditioned and admitted
Bilski to Drexels dance pro-
gram and has taught her in
dance and academic classes as
well as coached her in perform-
ances.
Im pretty sure Ive seen her
every day of her Drexel career,
Giguere says, She came inwith
a very solid technical back-
ground thanks to the training
she received in her hometown,
andthats not true of everyone.
Malskys sentiments echo Gi-
gueres. Malsky says, She is a
teachers dream. I would love to
take the credit for making her
who she is but she has natural
ability talent, and drive. I have
taught thousands of students
throughout my career, and Lau-
ren is one of those who absorb-
ed everything I had to give. She
has great facility, great outlook,
great work ethic, and great fam-
ily support.
That support comes fromBil-
skis grandmothers, Joan Deg-
nan of Kingston and Lucy Bilski
of Wilkes-Barre, and from her
parents, Sharon and Joseph Bil-
ski.
When you have a kid like
her, Sharon Bilski says, you
have no problem letting her fol-
lowher dreams. But I do have to
tell her when she gets really
stressed to take a break, be-
cause shes the kind of kid that
wont. She works so hard. Bil-
ski, a rising junior, already has
139 credits under her belt witha
3.89 GPA. She takes 20 credits
a semester, Sharon Bilski says,
She is the overachiever.
To hear Bilski speak, though,
she is right on track. She hopes
to earn her doctorate at Drexel
for Dance Physical Therapy, a
career she was inspired to pur-
sue after shadowing the physi-
cal therapist of the Pennsylva-
nia Ballet Company.
Giguere is confident Bilski
and the rest of the company will
fly away fromthe festival with a
newperspective of their craft. I
think they will be very encour-
aged by what they see. They
will realize that other people
value what we value. We will be
back stage with dancers from
Germany, the Philippines, Aus-
tralia. They will realize we are
all similar, but we are all differ-
ent, too, she says.
Like the rest of Bilskis sup-
port groups in both Philadel-
phia and Wilkes-Barre, Malsky
already knows that Lauren is
different. She insists, You cant
find or buy another Lauren.

W
hats ina name?
Just ask the Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees.
They usedto be calledthe RedBarons,
back whenNortheasternPennsylvanias
minor league baseball teamactually drew
a fewfans.
That name was a hybridof the old
ScrantonRedSox andWilkes-Barre
Barons, two pro teams whichhadnt
playedfor more thanthree decades be-
fore the RedBarons brought their memo-
ry back to life.
Thenthe Yankees replacedthe Phillies
as Scranton/Wilkes-Barres major league
affiliate andsuckedthe life right out of
the stadium. The team, a booming at-
tendance success whenit debutedin
1989, was still respectable andinthe
middle of the International Leagues
attendance pack whenthe Phillies pulled
out of the area following the 2006 season.
Thenthe Yankees came in, andScran-
ton/Wilkes-Barre eventually sank near
the bottomof the league indrawing
power.
Some fans say thats because Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre went frombeing our team
to their team. Froma club displaying
NortheasternPennsylvania pride simply
witha nickname to a bunchviewedas
NewYork guys thats what everyone
immediately thinks of whenyousay
Yankees, right? who just happento play
at PNCField.
The connectionto this area was lost in
the name game.
Eventhe semi-pro NortheasternPenn-
sylvania Miners get the correlation,
throwing a nodto the coal mining history
of our region.
Luck of the Irish?
So maybe the nickname Shamrocks
isnt a badstart for the newWilkes-Barre/
Scrantonlacrosse team.
We think we cando some goodthings
withit inmerchandise, in-game promo-
tions, JimJennings, the teams majority
owner, saidduring a press conference
Friday that revealedthe nickname.
They cando more outside the Mohe-
ganSunArena building inwhichtheyll
play.
Because if youdont think Northeast-
ernPennsylvania boasts a huge Irish
heritage, youve never beento the annual
St. Patricks Day Parade indowntown
Scranton.
Theres a big Irishcommunity here,
Jennings said. That definitely was a
deciding factor ingoing withthe (Sham-
rocks) name. Were hoping it clicks with
people.
Certainly, a teamnickname doesnt
have to resonate throughthe home areas
legacy.
The Wilkes-Barre/ScrantonPenguins
hockey teamdoes pretty well whenit
comes to attracting fans, anddoesnt do
muchto represent the regions history.
But it canbe beneficial whena team
creates aninstant bondwitha regionby
its nickname.
The LehighValley IronPigs, the Phil-
lies affiliate once knownas the RedBar-
ons, salute the LehighValleys once-
booming industry of making steel oth-
erwise knownas pig iron.
AndJennings, a LehighValley busi-
nessmanbasedinEaston, once debuteda
highly successful minor league basketball
franchise that playedinBethlehems
Stabler Arena andwas calledthe Penn-
sylvania ValleyDawgs.
Jennings saidNortheasternPennsylva-
nias soon-to-debut lacrosse teamhas
already soldabout $35,000 worthof
tickets during the past month. Youthink
he cant sell the name Shamrocks in
Wilkes-Barre andScranton?
The response has beenpositive,
Jennings said. Were going to make a big
pushinthe next 30 to 60 days. Now
were going to try to get everything onthe
fast track.
If this foray of his takes off, he might
just windup doing a jig.

tie en route to a 7-4 Interna-
tional league victory over the
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yan-

the bottom of the seventh,
Toledos Ryan Strieby fol-
lowed a Timo Perez single by
slamminga longhome runto
left-center, his14thhome run
of the season. The Mud Hens
then tacked on a run when
Jeff Salazar walked, stole sec-
ond one of five steals by To-
ledo in the first seven frames
before moving to third on a
sacrifice and scoring on a
groundout.
Those runs were the latest
in a contest that saw the two
teams score at least one run
eight of the first 14 half-in-
nings.
The wildness of Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre starter Lance
Pendleton cost him a run in
the first inning. Toledos Ar-
genis Diaz and Perez hit
back-to-back singles with
one out, and with two outs
Pendleton walked Salazar to
load the bases, then walked
Danny Worth to force in a
run.
Starting in the fourth the
two teams began exchanging
runs. The Yankees scored

bats in the opening game of
the Section 5 Little League
Tournament at the Archbald

Abington National offense
exploded for 11runs en route
to an 11-7 victory over King-

The tournament is double

elimination game this after-
noon against Mountain Top,
which lost 8-2 to Archbald.
First pitch is 2 p.m.

ues play in the winners
bracket a few minutes after
the first game.
Abington National wasted
no time starting up its offen-
siveattack. KylePorpiglialed
off the game with a frozen-
rope double to right field.
Ryan Harvey then blasted a
two-run home run to left
field, giving Abington Na-
tional the 2-0 advantage after
the first.
That lead would be ex-
tended to 5-0 in the top half
of the third inning. Harvey
started the inning with sin-
gle to right and then ad-
vanced to third on two
passed balls. Matt Hughes

Berwick native Adam Bowman admits
that when he got to Kentucky last year, he
didnt know a thing about riding a horse.
Anyone who saw him at River Downs
last Wednesday sure wouldnt have
known that.
Bowman, aboard Debs Girly Girl, did a
masterful job of guiding the green filly to
victory in the sixth race. The horse
moved from third to first on the stretch
turn, but attempted to bear in after taking
the lead.
However, Bowman managed to get her
back on a straight path and was able to
avoid contact with the horse next to her
as they raced for the finish line. He
showed the horse the whip, but didnt use
it as Debs Girly Girl won by a length

Editors Note: The Scranton/Wilkes-
Barre Yankees have taken a page
from their parent club by winning

International League North Division
titles and more could be on the way
because the minor league system is
stacked with top prospects that are

or Major League level. Heres a look

are now and how they are faring:
By DAVE ROSENGRANT
drosengrant@timesleader.com
In 1995, the Red Barons
were in the midst of a record-
breaking road trip through
Rochester, Syracuse and Co-
lumbus, with 10 wins out of 14
games. The road trip began
July 8 with a doubleheader
spilt at Rochester and ended
with a win over Columbus
July 21.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre set a
record for road wins that sea-
son with 34, but that mark has
since been passed nine times
and every year since 2006.
The franchises current mark

By DAVE ROSENGRANT
The 2011 season for Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre began with much promise
with a starting rotation filled with top
prospects and one of the most explo-
sive offenses PNC Field has ever wit-
nessed.
With several promotions to New
York and many injuries this season, the
campaign hasnt lived up to those high
expectations as of yet.
But with the first half out of the way,
the Yankees still have another seven
weeks of baseball to erase a five-game
deficit in the International League
North Division and claim the division
title for the fifth consecutive year.
Heres a recap of some of the high-
lights this season for the Triple-A Yan-
kees.
APRIL
After losing their first two games of
the season, the Yankees got in the win
column by defeating Rochester in the
third game of the season thanks to
Jordan Parrazs second home run of
the season and the first of 21 this sea-
son by first baseman Jorge Vazquez.
The Yankees went on to win 15 of
their next 19 games to open a two-
game lead in the division. One of the
highlights of the streak came on April
18 when Justin Maxwell hit a walk-off
home run in a 2-1, 13-inning win over
Syracuse.
SWB ended the month with three
straight losses to drop its record to
14-9. Vazquez ended the month with
nine home runs and 27 RBI as the
Yankees ended April with a .269 bat-
ting average and a team ERA of 3.43.
The month also featured appearances
by proven big league pitchers Kevin
Millwood and Mark Prior. Millwood
has since moved on to the Red Sox
organization, while Prior has been on
the disabled list for two months.
MAY
Of the 26 games the Yankees played
during the second month of the sea-
son, only 11 of those were in the
friendly confines of PNC Field. And
the home park was not so friendly to
the team as it went 3-8, including a
franchise record-tying seven straight
losses in series against Pawtucket,
Lehigh Valley and Indianapolis. Those
losses dropped SWB out of first place
and left the team five games behind
the division-leading IronPigs on May
22.
The transactions also started to pile
up for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre with a
total of 35 moves made during the
month, more than doubling the April
total of 16. Speedy outfielder Greg
Golson and fellow outfielder Parraz
highlighted the injured players, while
New York called up outfielder Chris
Dickerson and pitchers Lance Pendle-
ton and Hector Noesi for lengthy stays
in the bigs.
The team posted a 13-13 mark in
May, and Vazquez hit nine more long-
balls for a total of 18. Maxwell went
deep eight times to double his home
run total for the season, to 16. Vazquez
and Maxwell ended the month one-two
in the league in home runs.
JUNE
The third month looked similar to
May with a total of 42 transactions in
the 30-day period, a second-straight
non-winning month (14-15) and a los-
ing record at home (7-9).
Injuries started to take a toll on the
team with Maxwell, Vazquez, starter
David Phelps, closer Kevin Whelan and
outfielder Dan Brewer landing on the
DL. Maxwell was ruled out for the
season, while Vazquez missed 13
games. Phelps and Brewer have not
returned yet.
Right-hander Adam Warren starred
for the team, making his case for an
All-Star selection by posting a 3-2 re-
cord in June with five quality starts. In
a 29-inning stretch, he allowed only
two runs. Warrens most impressive
outings came on June 9 when he threw
his first career complete game and
then on June 20 when he took a no-
hitter into the seventh inning.
The offense got a boost midway
through the month when veterans
Mike Lamb and Terry Tiffee were
signed from an independent league.
JULY
This month, the Yankees appear to
be breaking a losing trend from the
previous two months. Theyve gone 7-6
in their first 13 games, including two
contests after the all-star break. SWB
started off winning four of its first five
and has a 4-3 record at home.
The Yankees are also starting to get
most of their players back, with Vaz-
quez returning from the disabled list,
Dickerson and starting pitcher Ivan
Nova back from New York and Tiffee
and Lamb starting to heat up, despite
a current injury to Lamb.
Catcher Jesus Montero hit the DL as
did fellow all-star selection Whelan,
but they have returned to the active
roster.
LOOKING
AHEAD
With 91 games down and 53 games
remaining, the Yankees will have their
chance to pick up ground on the Iron-
Pigs in the division. They play first-
place Lehigh Valley five more times
this season, and of their 53 games left,
31 are at home.

TORONTO CC Sabathia
won his seventh straight start
to become the first 14-game
winner in the majors, Brett
Gardner had three hits and the
New York Yankees beat Toronto
4-1 on Saturday, ending the
Blue Jays five-game winning
streak.
Derek Jeter got two hits and
matched Al Kaline for 26th
place on baseballs career list.
Jeter singled in the ninth for hit
No. 3,007.
Gardner doubled in the sec-
ond, hustled for a double and
scored in the fourth, then stole
second after reaching on a bunt
single in the sixth.
The Yankees got back in the
win column after losing their
first two games following the
All-Star break..
Red Sox 9, Rays 5
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
Dustin Pedroia, Jacoby Ellsbury
and Josh Reddick homered and
the Boston Red Sox rallied from
an early three-run deficit
against All-Star James Shields
to beat the Tampa Bay Rays 9-5
on Saturday.
John Lackey (7-8) struck out
seven while allowing four runs
and 10 hits over 5 2-3 innings
for the AL East leaders, who
retained a 11-2-game lead over
the New York Yankees and
dropped the third-place Rays a
season-high six games off the
pace in the division.
White Sox 5, Tigers 0
DETROIT Edwin Jackson
pitched his first complete game
since his no-hitter last year, and
Juan Pierre added four hits to
lead the Chicago White Sox to
a 5-0 win over the Detroit Ti-
gers on Saturday.
Jackson (6-7) allowed nine
hits in his third career shutout,
striking out two and walking
two. It was his first complete
game since June 25, 2010, when
Jackson, then with the Arizona
Diamondbacks, held Tampa
Bay hitless in a 1-0 win.
Jackson threw149 pitches in
that game. He needed only 101
on Saturday.
Max Scherzer (10-5) allowed
two runs and eight hits in eight
innings. He struck out six.
Carlos Quentin hit a solo
home run for Chicago.
Angels 4, Athletics 2, 1st game
OAKLAND, Calif. Jered
Weaver held Oakland hitless
until the fifth inning and won
his sixth straight decision,
pitching the Los Angeles An-
gels past the Athletics 4-2 Sat-
urday in the first game of a
doubleheader.
Erick Aybar homered and
Bobby Abreu drove in two runs
as the Angels won for the ninth
time in 11 games.
Orioles 6, Indians 5
BALTIMORE Alfredo
Simon pitched seven innings of
three-hit ball, Nick Markakis
homered and scored three runs,
and the Baltimore Orioles held
on to beat the Cleveland Indi-
ans 6-5 Saturday night to end a

Twins 4, Royals 3
MINNEAPOLIS Michael
Cuddyer singled home the
go-ahead run in the eighth
inning and Joe Nathan did his
job as the new closer Saturday
night, giving the Minnesota
Twins a 4-3 win over the Kan-
sas City Royals.
Cuddyer, Minnesotas lone
All-Star representative, singled
off Aaron Crow to drive in Alexi
Casilla.
Nathan finished for his fourth
save in seven chances. Earlier in
the day, the Twins put the for-
mer All-Star back into his famil-
iar role, replacing the strug-
gling Matt Capps.

The Associated Press
NEW YORK Scott Hair-
ston, subbing for ailing All-Star
Carlos Beltran, hit a long
homer and drove in a career-
best five runs as the New York
Mets hammered Philadelphia
Phillies ace Cole Hamels yet
again in an 11-2 victory Sat-
urday.
Daniel Murphy also went
deep and Jonathon Niese
pitched seven strong innings to
help the depleted Mets snap a
three-game skid. Fielding a
makeshift lineup minus its four
biggest bats, New York rapped
out 15 hits and improved to 4-7
this season against the NL East
leaders, who own baseballs
best record.
Beltran sat out with the flu
and a high fever, so manager
Terry Collins inserted a not-so-
secret weapon against Hamels
(11-5).
Hairston batted third in large
part because he entered with a
.353 career average (6 for 17)
and three homers against the
left-hander, one of Philadel-
phias three All-Star starters.
Marlins 13, Cubs 3
CHICAGO Mike Stanton
hit two home runs, Javier Vaz-
quez struck out 10 and the
Florida Marlins routed the
Chicago Cubs 13-3 Saturday.
Stanton got three hits and
drove in four runs. He hit a solo
homer in the fourth inning and
added a three-run shot, his
20th, in the fifth off Carlos
Zambrano.
Zambrano (6-5) was activa-
ted from the 15-day disabled list
earlier in the day. He had a
rocky 4 2-3 innings, giving up
eight earned runs on seven hits
and four walks.
Vazquez (6-8) went seven
innings and pitched the Marlins
to their seventh win in eight
games.
Astros 6, Pirates 4
HOUSTON Humberto
Quintero hit the go-ahead sin-
gle in a three-run eighth inning
to lift the Houston Astros to a
6-4 win over the Pittsburgh
Pirates on Saturday night.
The Astros trailed 4-3 before
Hunter Pence walked and
scored on a fielders choice to
tie it up in the eighth. Clint
Barmes reached on an error by
Brandon Wood when his groun-
der bounced off the third base-
mans glove and into the out-
field to leave runners at the
corners with one out.
Nationals 5, Braves 2
ATLANTA John Lannan
gave up two runs in 5 2-3 in-
nings and had his first two hits
of the season to lead the Wash-
ington Nationals to a 5-2 victo-
ry over the Atlanta Braves on
Saturday night.
Lannan (6-6) also drove in
two runs and earned the win
eight days after he escaped
with only a small cartilage
break in his nose when he was
hit by a line drive.
Drew Storen pitched the
ninth for his 24th save.
Cardinals 4, Reds 1
CINCINNATI Albert
Pujols hit a three-run homer
his second in two days and
Chris Carpenter stymied the
NLs most prolific offense again,
leading the St. Louis Cardinals
to a 4-1 victory over the Cincin-
nati Reds on Saturday night.

RBI double to center field. Later
in the inning, Maxwell scored
from third on a sacrifice bunt off
the bat of Zack Sott.
Abington National added an-
other run in the top of the fourth.

Kingston/Forty Forts Alex So-

gle to start the bottom of the
fourth. He then advanced to sec-

Judge then hit a sacrifice fly to
center field, making it a 6-4 ball
game.
However, Kingston/Forty-Fort
wasnt done yet. With two outs in
the inning, Maxwell reached on
an infield single, then stole sec-
ond base. He was then brought
home by a ground-rule double
from McCue and all of a sudden,
Kingston/Forty-Fort was down
just one run after four innings.
Abington Nationals offensive
responded in a big way in the top
of the fifth by batting around the

Hughes led off the inning with a
blast to straight-away center.
With two outs in the fifth, Ryan
Eckersly singled to left field and
Nick Kerekes singled to third
base. In his first at-bat of the
game, Tony Sallavanti crushed a
two-RBI single down the right-
field line, giving Abington Na-
tional a 9-5 advantage.
Later in the inning, Porpiglia
singled and Harvey then hit an
RBI single to center. Abington

with the bases loaded and the
Abington National lead was 11-5

Maxwell then hit a mammoth
two-run homer way over the
scoreboard in center field. How-
ever, that 11-7 deficit would be as

Steve Mytych and Will Weber
grewuptravelingthe junior wres-
tling circuit together.
Mytych followed Weber into
the cage Saturday night as the
two local high school wrestling
coaches posted wins on the ama-
teur portion of the first Mixed
Martial Arts cardat the Mohegan
Sun Arena.
Swoyersvilles JimHettes, who
is teaching the former wrestlers
Jiu Jitsu while Mytych helps him
add some wrestling techniques,
remained unbeaten in eight pro-
fessional bouts by winning the
main event of the Mixed Martial
Arts Super Sport (MASS) Pro-
ductions Inauguration card.
Weber, a former Lake-Lehman
wrestler who is now an assistant
coach at Crestwood, won his
MMAdebut inthe secondbout of
the card.
Mytych, who began his high
school wrestling career at Wyom-
ing Valley West andwent onto be
the all-time leader in wins at
Drexel University, improved to
3-0 when he quickly finished off
the next bout.
Hettes made it through the
toughest bout of his career to
stop Jacob Kirwan on a choke
hold tapout with a minute left in
the second period.
Youhave tohave anall-around
game, Mytych said of the transi-
tion from wrestling to MMA.
Youhave tobe able toboxandbe
able to defend when on your
back.
Imgetting more confident on
my back, but its still where I nev-
er want to be.
While giving up six inches in
height to Freelands Sam Beha-
rovic, Mytych relied on what he
knows best. He worked inside
early for a double-leg takedown
and got a headlock in to gain con-
trol.
Mytych held Beharovic down
and got a triangle choke hold in
place for the tapout at 1:20.
I knew he was going to have
an overall reach advantage,
which is huge when you look at
MMA and boxing, said Mytych,
the Wyoming Area head wres-
tling coach. I knew I wasnt go-
ing to want to exchange big
bombs with him.
I waited until he went to
throw a punch. I knew when he
went to throw a punch that he
would be off balance and I got on
my double and drove him across
the cage.
Weber was never able to lock
up his choke holds enough to fin-
ish the bout, missing his best
chance when the first-period bell
saved Anthony McGlynn of East
Stroudsburg. Weber held
McGlynn down for most of the
first period and all of the second
before making it through a more
evenly matched third period.
One judge gave McGlynn the
third round, but Weber managed
the unanimous decision while
winning all three rounds on the
other two judges cards.
After Rex Harris stopped
Chase Owens with11seconds left
in their wild battle in the co-main
event, Hettes had to work in the
second round for only the second
time.
Hettes fought from on bottom
for much of the last two minutes
of the first period, but then con-
trolled the second period of the
featherweight title bout to get
the win at 3:58.
Jeremiah Wells appeared to
have the boxing advantage in the
first round of the amateur fight
that started the card more than
40 minutes late.
Dave Spadell, however, imme-
diately took charge with a right
uppercut to open the second
round. Spadell then put Wells
downwitha left hand, ending the
fight 19 seconds into the round.
The upper level of the arena
was left empty and less than half
the seats on the lower level were
filled with entire sections left
empty, but hundreds of enthusi-
asts of the sport claimed the ex-
pensive floor seats for a close-up
look at the action.
In the second and third fights
after an intermission, Jay Haas
and James Cianci put on impres-
sive displays of power.
Haas won for the seventh time
in eight fights after starting his
pro career 3-5. He had Nick Bles-
er face down and was pounding
Bleser with elbows to the head
when the referee stopped the
bout late inthe first round. Bleser
neededseveral minutes before he
was able to sit up.
Cianci, from Clarks Summit,
improvedto3-0witha one-punch
knockout of Ryan Harder 55 sec-
onds into their bout.
Ciancis right handsent Harder
straight back into the cage before
landing face first, leading to an
immediate stoppage.

going away.
Bowman, 21, looked more like
champion jockey Ramon Domin-
guez than someone who just got
his apprentice license two weeks
earlier
It was enough to draw the at-
tention of veteran HRTV analyst
Jon White, who was quick to
praise the jockey who was un-
known to him.
That kid can ride, White
said. I was reallyimpressedwith
howhewasabletokeepthehorse
under control, and showed a lot
of poise by the way he put away
the stick after showing it to the
horse, and still kept her going.
White was so taken by Bow-
man, that he asked co-host and
former jockey Zoe Cadman to
check her computer for informa-
tion about the young rider. She
quickly discovered that Bowman
is a recent graduate of the Chris
McCarron jockey school in Lex-
ington, Ky.
That doesnt surprise me,
White quipped. The kid has tal-
ent.
Wednesdays win was the sec-
ondof Bowmans buddingcareer.
He scored his initial victory with
first-time starter Debaro at River
Downs on July 7. He already has
established himself as one of the
hottest apprentice jockeys at the
Cincinnati track.
Apprentice jockeys receive a 5-
pound weight allowance, which
makes them in demand if they
show promise.
Im really starting to pick up
business, said Bowman, who
spends the first few hours of ev-
ery day visiting with trainers on
the backside and trying to sell
himself. Luck doesnt fall on
your plate, youhavetogoout and
make it.
Thats how Bowman won over
trainer RyanMetz, who gave him
his first two winning rides. One
morning Metz allowed Bowman
to breeze Debaro. He eventually
worked the horse from the gate,
andthings went sowell that Metz
decided to let Bowman have the
mount for her debut.
The horse galloped to a 3-
length victory.
It was like getting a monkey
off my back, Bowman said. It
took a lot of pressure off me.
Once you win a race, people take
notice.
Its hard to believe that only
three years ago Bowman was a 4-
foot-9, 95-pound wrestler at Co-
lumbia Montour Vo-Tech in
Bloomsburg. His riding experi-
ence consisted of two trail rides.
Despite his size, Bowman al-
ways has been a fitness and
strength buff. He was a success-
ful wrestler, even though he gave
away 5 to 7 pounds in his match-
es.
I was always the small guy,
but I wanted to get strong and be
macho. I continually lifted
weights, and I enjoyed body-
building. I worked out three
times a day.
Bowman is the son of Gary
Bowman, of Berwick, and Bon-
nie Cain, of Barbourville, Ky. His
sister, Ashley, 23, is a graduate of
Northern Kentucky University
and is a stage manager for an
Ohio River showboat theater.
After high school, Bowman
spent a year as a bodybuilder. He
performed in two shows, includ-
ing one in New York City. He
loved bodybuilding, but gave it
up to returnto school. He attend-
ed Luzerne County Community
College for one semester in2009.
And then fate stepped in.
Adams mom told him about
McCarrons riding school, and
suggestedthat heconsider apply-
ing for it. Bowman followed
through, and was among 20 stu-
dents that won acceptance from
more than 500 applicants. But it
didnt come easy.
Four weeks passed and I
didnt hear anything from the
school, said Bowman. So, I
headed back to Pennsylvania.
However, he didnt get far. His
Jeep broke down 15 miles out of
Lexington.
I was stuck in Kentucky, and I
guess it was meant to be, Bow-
man said. The next day I got a
letter fromChris telling me I was
accepted to his school.
Having the opportunity to
study under Hall of Fame jockey
McCarron was a turning point in
Bowmans life.
After spending 18 months do-
ing everything from cleaning
stalls, grooming horses and hon-
ing his riding skills, Bowman
graduatedwithflyingcolors. The
term included a five-month in-
ternship galloping horses at Phi-
ladelphia Park for John Servis,
trainer of 2005 Kentucky Derby
winner Smarty Jones.
According to McCarron, Bow-
man was an exceptional student.
He has great handtoeye coor-
dination, andhes a quicklearner.
He pays attention and also recog-
nizes that hes very advanced for
someone whos only ridden a
couple dozen of races to this
point.
Bowman is personable and re-
spectful -- qualities that will take
hima longway inthe racingbusi-
ness, McCarron added.
Hes verylaidbackanddoesnt
get upset or flustered. Horses re-
ally like him. Hes very comfort-
able in the saddle.
Bowman is thrilled with his
early success, but emphasized
that hes still learning the ropes.
Im ecstatic that I got my li-
cense so fast andImalready win-
ning races, but its all about reac-
hing a goal. Right nowmy goal is
riding at River Downs on horses
that will just teach me riding
skills. Theres so much to learn
every day.
McCarron says its the right
place for Bowman to be right
now.
Theres nothing wrong with
riding at River Downs, he said,
recalling that another young
jockey began his career there a
long time ago. Steve Cauthen
did OK.
Cauthen won the 1978 Triple
Crown with Affirmed at age 18,
and also is in the Hall of Fame.

Back Mountains first trip to
the Region 5 American Legion
Baseball Tournament in 10 years
got off to a good start Saturday
at Central Columbia High
School in Bloomsburg with an
11-10 win over Jersey Shore in 11
innings.
The Wyoming Valley Amer-
ican Legion League champions
got the win when Josh Everett
singled to center with one out in
the top of the 11th to give the
team a one-run lead.
Pat Condo shut down Jersey
Shore, the West Branch cham-
pion, in the bottom of the frame
to secure the win.
Back Mountain will play Sus-
quehanna Valley League cham-
pion and defending tournament
champion Danville today at 3
p.m. at Bloomsburg University.
Danville advanced with a 14-13
win over FMS on Saturday.
Im not satisfied with one
win, Back Mountain manager
Tom Evans said. I want more
wins. I want to win the whole
tournament and move on to the
next one.
A five-run eighth gave Back
Mountain (20-4) a 10-4 lead as it
took advantage of three errors
made by Jersey Shore. But the
West Branch champions answer-
ed back in the bottom of the
frame with a six-spot to even the
score at 10-10.
Deep Patel doubled twice for
the winners as part of a 3-for-7
day with three runs scored and
two RBI. His teammate Paul
Narcum also had three hits and
was 3-for-4 while scoring two
runs.
Condo picked up the victory
pitching the final four innings
and only allowing one run on
three hits, while fanning two.
Zach Shreck paced Jersey
Shores offense with four hits,
two RBI, two runs scored and
two doubles.

Plains 16,
Bloomsburg 6 (7 inn)
Three five-run innings and a
second consecutive strong pitch-
ing outing from Anthony Grilli-
ni catapulted Plains to its first
win in the Region 5 Tournament
since winning the title in 2006.
Plains, the WVALL runner-up,
took a 1-0 lead in the first, then
jumped out to a 6-0 lead after
the second inning with three of
those runs scoring on a three-
run home run by first baseman
Jordan Bone (4-for-5, 4 runs, 3
RBI). The blast was estimated
as traveling 400 feet.
Thats all Grillini would need
as he went six innings, giving up
just one earned run and striking
out nine to pick up the win. He
helped himself at the plate in a
five-run fifth with a run-scoring
single. Dom Gulius and Joe
Parsnik also had RBI hits in the
fifth as Plains opened a 16-3
advantage after five innings. For
the afternoon, Grillini tied Bone
with a game-high three RBI.
We told the kids coming in
lets get on top early and contin-
ue to hit and we didnt let down
at all, Plains manager Don
Stark said. Its important to get
that first win in there. Its a
memory for the kids and now
its time to get down to business
and see if we can bring back a
regional title.
Plains (17-8) will face Brad-
ford League champion Canton
today at 4:30 p.m. at Central
Columbia High School. Canton
advanced with a 6-4 win over
District 11 champion Greed
Ridge (14-8).
Bob Sorokas (3-for-4, 3 runs)
and Parsnik (3-for-5) had three
hits each for the winners, which
banged out 16 hits. Jim Graziosi
added two hits and two RBI for
Plains.
Blooms Austin Davis was
3-for-4 with a double, triple and
scored a pair of runs.

Noting that progress has been
made, NFL owners and players
wrapped up a round of intensive
talks without a full agreement to
end the leagues four-month lock-
out, but determined to keep
pushing during the weekend.
NFL Players Association head
DeMaurice Smith expects to
speak with NFL Commissioner
Roger Goodell in the next couple
of days, possibly in person, while
the two sides legal and financial
teams continue working. After
about eight hours of negotiations
in New York on Friday tacked
onto more than 25 hours across
Wednesday and Thursday the
league and players issued a joint
statement, saying: The discus-
sions this week have been con-
structive and progress has been
made on a wide range of issues.
Theydidnot reveal anydetails,
citing a gag order imposed by the
court-appointed mediator, U.S.
Magistrate Judge Arthur Boylan.
I wouldnt dare speculate on
where we are, said Dallas Cow-
boys owner Jerry Jones, one of
six members of the owners labor
committee participating Friday.
But people familiar with the
discussions told The Associated
Press that Fridays talks moved
beyond economic issues to cover
other remaining areas where
gaps need to be bridged to finish
off a deal. That included player
healthandsafetymatters, suchas
offseason workout rules.
The aim was to build upon the
significant steps made Thursday,
when the framework for a rookie
salarysystemwas established, in-
cluding that first-round draft
picks will signfour-year contracts
with a club option for a fifth year.
On another financial matter, the
per-team cap figure for 2011 will
be in the range of $120 million in
salaries plus about $20 million or
so in benefits, according to peo-
ple with knowledge of the talks.
The people spoke to the AP on
condition of anonymity because
the negotiations aimed at break-
ing the impasse are supposed to
be confidential.
One person also told the AP
that owners first learned Thurs-
day that the NFLPA set up
$200,000 in lockout insurance
for each player if the 2011 season
were lost entirely, a policy that
cost at least $10 million and was
taken out nearly a year ago. That
policy was first reported by SI-
.com.

PLATEAU DE BEILLE,
France French cyclist Tho-
mas Voeckler retained the lead
of the Tour de France on Satur-
day after the last stage in the Py-
renees, which was won by Jelle
Vanendert of Belgium and failed
to be as significant as expected
for the main contenders.
Vanendert clinched the 14th
stage the first Tour stage win
of his career after finishing 21
seconds ahead of Samuel San-
chez of Spain and 46 seconds in
front of third-place Andy
Schleck of Luxembourg.
I never imagined this would
happento me onmy first Tour de
France, Vanendert said. I have
been feeling good in the moun-
tains.
The contenders were expect-
ed to launch attacks in the most
grueling stage of the Pyrenees so
far which featured a 10-mile
climb to Plateau de Beille but
Schleck only gained 2 seconds
on defending champion Alberto
Contador and Cadel Evans de-
spite several attempts from the
two-time runner-up.
Evans crossed the line fourth
ahead of Colombias Rigoberto
Uran and Contador. They all
were 48 seconds behind Vanen-
dert.
It wasnt possible to make a
big difference, I need a steeper
stage than this, said Schleck,
who rides for the Leopard Trek
team with his older brother
Frank. We worked hard, we
climbed well. But when you at-
tacked today, you could only get
50 meters ahead because there
was a bit of wind. But still, I got a
few seconds at the end.
Voeckler is 1 minute, 49 sec-
onds ahead of Frank Schleck,
2:06 clear of Evans, 2:15 ahead of
Andy Schleck and 4:00 in front
of Contador, who is seventh be-
hind Sanchez and Italys Ivan
Basso.
Im not interested who is
stronger than who, Voeckler
said. My objective was to keep
the jersey.
Voeckler keeps predicting he
will lose the yellow jersey and is
stunned by his impressive form.
Its hard for me to believe that
Im in yellow after the Pyre-
nees, he said. Its like a dream.
Contador praised Voeckler,
but does not expect him to keep
going at this rate for much long-
er.
We know hes a great rider,
but if he ever cracks one day he
will really lose a lot of time,
Contador said.
The 105-mile trek from Saint-
Gaudens to Plateau de Beille fin-
ished with a famed and tortuous
ascent.
Schleck kept shooting glances
at Contador when next to the
three-time champion early in the
last climb, looking to see if the
Spaniard was struggling. Conta-
dor beat Schleck to win the Tour
the past two years.
With about 6 miles remaining,
Schleck, Contador and Evans ac-
celerated ahead of the main
pack.
I tried to keep things under
control, Evans said. It was a
long, but not a steep climb. Its at
this point in the race that the
contenders are pretty evenly
matched, so its really hard to
make a big difference.
Schleck launched another at-
tack soon after, with Contador
struggling to follow until he sat
on Frank Schlecks wheel and
caught up a few seconds later.
I amsatisfied because I didnt
lose any time today, Contador
said. I cant say I was good, be-
cause good means winning.
Contador banged his knee
twice in crashes on stages 5 and
9, but feels he can hit top form
when the race reaches the high
Alps on Wednesday.

10 years. Right behind was Dustin
Johnson, who was 4 over through
the opening 13 holes of this cham-
pionship and somehow wound up
in the final group.
Thomas Bjorn, who threwaway
the BritishOpeneight years ago at
Royal St. Georges, was the first al-
ternate at the start of the weekand
now is only three shots behind.
Theres also a 22-year-old who
plays without fear and makes it
look fun only its not U.S. Open
championRoryMcIlroy, butRickie
Fowler Little Rickie as they
call himin these parts.
Could anyone have predicted
these storylines at the start of the
week?
No, Johnson replied. I was
playing pretty well, but you never
know, especially coming into a
British Open.
At least today might be a little
easier to sort out.
Clarke escaped the worst of the
raging weather Saturday, leaving
him far less traffic on his unlikely
road to a claret jug.
He was dressed in full rain gear
whenhewalkedtothefirst teefora
thirdroundthat hadbeencrowded
with contenders. When he walked
off the 18th green in short sleeves,
he had a one-shot lead and was
blinking in the bright sunshine
over Royal St. Georges.
There were 44 players within
five shots of the leadgoingintothe
third round.
Nowthere are12.
If somebody had given me 69
before I was going out to play, I
wouldhavebittentheirhandoff for
it, Clarke said. Saying that, we
did get very fortunate with the
draw. Sometimes to win any tour-
nament, the draw can make a big
difference. But inTheOpenCham-
pionship, it makes a huge differ-
ence. We got very lucky.
He also was very good.
Clarke missed only two greens
in regulation, and was one of only
three players who managed to
break par. It was his third round in
the 60s, and it put him at 5-under
205 and into the final group of the
BritishOpenforthefirst timesince
1997 at Royal Troon.
Fewer contenders doesnt make
it any easier.
Johnson, the powerful 27-year-
old American, managed to make
six birdies on his way to a 68 that
puts him in the final group for the
third time in the last six majors.
The other two arent exactly glori-
ous memories an 82 to lose a
three-shot lead at the U.S. Open
last year, a two-shot penalty onthe
lastholeof thePGAChampionship
when he didnt realize he was in a
bunker.
Im going to be pretty comfort-
able out there (today) because I
knowwhat to expect, I knowhow
to approach it, and I know what I
do in those situations, Johnson
said. So hopefully, I can go out to-
morrow and play some solid golf
like Ive been doing the last few
days.
Fowler was soaked, zippedupin
a cream-colored rainsuit for two-
thirds of his round, yet it never
seemed to bother him. He hung
around par during the worst of the
conditions a remarkable feat
and when the rain went away, he
took off to higher ground. Fowler
madethreebirdies over thelast six
holesfora68andwastwoshotsbe-
hind, along with Thomas Bjorn
(71).
Fowler played with McIlroy,
whosehopes endedwithateeshot
that went out-of-bounds on the
14th. Heshot74andwasnineshots
behind.
Lucas Glover, aU.S. Opencham-
pion who played in the final group
Saturday, made 10 straight pars
early in his round only to lose his
way, but not his hopes over the fi-
nal hour. Glover missed two birdie
puttsinside6feet onthebacknine,
and made two bogeys. He shot 73,
but still was within four shots. He
was tied with Miguel Angel Jime-
nez, whodidnt makeabirdieinhis
round of 72.
Alsostill inthe mix is Phil Mick-
elson, who has only contended
onceintheBritishOpen. Herallied
when the sun began to break
through the clouds and salvaged a
71, leaving himfive shots back in a
group that included Anthony Kim
(68), PGA champion Martin
Kaymer (73) and Ryder Cup cap-
tain Davis Love III, who tied for
fourthat Royal St. Georgesin2003
and had a 72 to stay in range.
But it starts with Clarke, a 42-
year-old from Northern Ireland
who has beenwatching the young-
sters from Ulster celebrate golfs
biggest events, from Graeme
McDowell at Pebble Beach last
summer to McIlroy at Congres-
sional last month.
Is it his turn at this stage in his
career?
DidI everdoubtI wouldgetmy-

kesaid. DidI knowit was goingto

ing to happen? Yes. But did I ever
doubt? No.
Oncehefinishedhis ownQ&A,
Clarkeheadedtothehomeof agent
ChubbyChandlertostuff hisface
and try not to have too much to
drink.
A big day awaits today, perhaps
the biggest of his career.
And the forecast isnt very
friendly.
Typical of the weather in this
part of the world, anything goes.
Theressupposedtobeamixtureof
sunshineandpassingshowers that
could be heavy but wont stick
around for long. The constant is
the wind, which again is likely to
gust upward of 30 mph at times. A
one-shot lead is nothing on Royal
St. Georges in calm conditions,
and anyone at par or better figures
to be in the mix.
No other major championship
depends so largely on the weather,
and that was never more clear on
Saturday.
Those who played early, such as
five-time Open champion Tom
Watson, caught the worst of the
nasty stuff gusts so strong they
flipped umbrellas inside-out, a
light rain that soon turned into a
drivingrain, andscoresthat soared
through the gray sky.
Of the first 41 players who teed
off, no one could even match par.
Trevor Immelman had one of the
better rounds at 72, and his strong
effort left him nine shots behind.
It was like going18 holes withthe
heavyweight champion of the
world, he said.
Watson, the 61-year-old magi-
cian on the links, must have been
smiling inside when he saw how
bad it was. He worked his way
around the front nine in wind so

SANDWICH, England
Amid the 30 mph winds and
horizontal rainstorms that
wreaked havoc at Royal St. Ge-
orges on Saturday, one man
with nearly 40 years of links ex-
perience stood tall.
Playing with a smile that nev-
er left his face, TomWatson rev-
eled in the kind of fierce weath-
er conditions that brought
many of the early starters to
their knees in a wet
and wild third round
at the British Open.
Watsons 2-over 72
wasnt the lowest
score of the day, but
it might have been
the most impressive.
You know, if we
had weather like we
had this morning the
entire tournament, I
dont know whos going to beat
him, Phil Mickelson said.
He played in the worst of it,
andI thinkhe shot about as well
as anybody did.
Jason Day said Saturday had
been his toughest day in golf.
Edoardo Molinari described
the conditions as a joke.
Watson merely called them
bothersome.
The challenge of dealing
with conditions on a course like
this is, its fun, said the 61-year-
old American.
I kind of liked that forecast
yesterday, when it said it was
going to get nasty out there. It
worked out well for me today.
While many players strug-
gled in the gusts, Watson
stayed solid, especially on the
greens where he needed just 29
putts.
Parring the first six holes, the
five-time Open champion bird-
ied the par-5 No. 7, delighting
the huge galleries that stayedto
cheer him on.
He made par with a 30-footer
on No. 8 and dropped his first
shot on No. 11. Three more bo-
geys followed, but that didnt
get him down.
Ill remember this day. It
was a very good day out there,
especially with that putter,
Watson said.
Never losing the determina-
tion that helped him win eight
majors, Watson used his vast ar-
ray of shots to combat the wind,
often from the rough of the 10
fairways he missed off the tee.
Hitting only nine greens in
regulation, he used his scram-
bling instincts well, too, help-
ing himto one-putt eight times.
It was a clinic in how to play
links golf. Especially in bad
weather.
Well, a lot of times you can
see these young kids out there
trying to hit it real-
ly hard into the
wind. That doesnt
flight the ball very
well, he said.
Hitting low
stingers, things like
that, you dont have
to hit it that hard.
Youcanjust flight it
by swinging it a lit-
tle bit easier, and
that will take the height off the
ball. In my case I cant hit it
hard. I mean, Im 61 years old.
Watson should charge for
such advice.
He hits the ball so solid, he
plays links golf, he hits a low,
penetrating running shot so
well and controls his distance
throughhis trajectory. Its really
impressive to watch, Mickel-
son said. He was behind me
the first couple days and Id
watch him hit approach shots
because he just knows how to
do it here.
Watson said it was a struggle
by the end, but mentioned two
British Opens where the condi-
tions were worse.
Muirfield in 2002 was
worse. The worst Ive ever
played in the Open Champion-
ship was at Muirfield in 1980 in
the first round. Lee Trevino and
I shot 68 the first round and led
the field by 8 or something like
that. We both played lights
out.
Watson is 4 over heading into
the final round, nine shots be-
hind leader Darren Clarke and
even with Rory McIlroy.

LOUDON, N.H. Dale Earn-
hardt Jr.s summer swoon hasnt
dented his confidence.
At least not yet.
Earnhardt was having his best
season at Hendrick Motorsports
and was in the hunt for several
wins until this four-race slump
sent him from third to eighth in
the standings.
He finished 21st at Michigan,
41st at Sonoma, 19th at Daytona
and 30th last week at Kentucky,
a rough stretch that not only
extended his losing streak to 111
races, it again stirred doubts
that he can be a serious conten-
der for the title.
Earnhardt is frustrated, for
sure. But NASCARs most pop-
ular driver hasnt let the dip in
production affect his morale. He
was one of the hottest drivers in
the sport six weeks ago and he
believes he can hit that level
again.
Weve got good cars. Weve
got a really, really good team,
he said. We should be running
better than we have been the
last couple of weeks and we
know it. We are just going to try
and work really hard to get back
where we were earlier in the
season. It shouldnt be that
difficult.
His eighth-place standing
would earn him a guaranteed
spot in the Chase for the cham-
pionship field at the cutoff. The
Hendrick Motorsports driver is
only 21 points ahead of 11th-
place driver Tony Stewart, leav-
ing little wiggle room for more
poor finishes. A top 10 at New
Hampshire today could go a
long way toward easing some
doubts about Earnhardt.
We wanted to come in here
with a lot of confidence that we
belong in the Chase, Earnhardt
said. That we belong up front
in the top five and the top 10
and try to make that happen
this weekend and try to race up
there well.
DO-GOODER GORDON: Jeff
Gordon is spending his off week-
end far, far from the track: All
the way in the Congo.
Gordon leaves right after
todays race at New Hampshire
as part of the Clinton Global
Initiative. Gordon, part of a
group that he said included
actress Ashley Judd, will visit a
refugee camp in the Congo.
Gordon said hes been planning
the trip since last year.
My expectations are to see
some jaw-dropping, eye-opening
experiences that are going to
change my life forever, he said.
Hopefully, we can do some
very good things to try to
change that in the future.
Gordon works with various
charitable endeavors, including
his own foundation and hunger
relief. He visited a food bank in
New Hampshire and donated
$10,000. He plans to visit Rwan-
da in December.
Its a short trip, hell return
Friday, and hell keep fans up-
dated through his Twitter feed.
The four-time Cup champion
hopes the trip will aid him in
further development in the Jeff
Gordon Childrens Foundation
Pediatric Cancer Treatment
Research.
You realize that the govern-
ment has a tough enough time
controlling and keeping things
safe, so theres definitely a little
bit of fear thats built in there,
he said. Its a short trip, but I
think its very valuable, and I
think its important to what our
cause is about.
HELTON RULE: Kyle Busch
has a court date on Wednesday
because he was cited for care-
less and reckless driving. Busch
was busted driving 128 mph in a
45 mph zone in a borrowed
Lexus.
While some sports, most
notably the NFL, get involved in
discipline even after verdicts
have been issued, NASCAR
president Mike Helton said he
would like to steer away from
those types of punishments.
I think what we try to do is
be very respectful of the fact
that our realm is regulating, our
realm of responsibility, (is)
NASCAR as a sport and letting
the proper jurisdictions regulate
everything outside the sport,
he said.
Helton touched on a few
subjects during a press confer-
ence to discuss the traffic deba-
cle at Kentucky:
On NASCARs boys, have
at it policy: I think the policy
is being probably defined every
time something happens and
the community sees our reac-
tion to it. So its a never ending
process of defining what all that
means.

THE U.S. ARMY CORPS ENGI-

DISTRICT has announced it will
hold whitewater releases Aug. 28

Dam.
The Corps updated the recreation
plan, which states whitewater
events scheduled for the final
weekend in August and in Sep-
tember will be held if adequate
water storage is accumulated in
the reservoir. A rainy season has
enabled the Corps to schedule
the two water releases in August.
The whitewater releases will be
approximately 650 cubic feet per
second of water. They would
bring the total number of white-
water events to 21 for 2011.
The Corps will continue to utilize
storage for weekday and week-
end fisheries enhancement water
releases of 100 cubic feet per
second through Aug. 5 and 50
cubic feet per second through
Sept 11.

water, theoperatorof aboatthatcollidedwithanother

sentence that was handed down.
The incident occurred in 2009 in Clinton County.
The operator of the boat that struck the other was in-
toxicatedmorethanthreetimesthelegal limit and
he had numerous drunk driving arrests in the past.
Back then, drunk driving penalties on the water
didnt match those that occurred on the pavement.
Today, they do.
Earlier this monthGov. TomCorbett signedHouse
Bill 78intolaw. Thebill requiresthatanypriorDriving
Under the Influence convictions be considered for
those facing a Boating Under the Influence charge. It
alsoraises a BUI
homicide to a
second-degree
felony. Before a
BUI homicide
was considered
a misdemeanor.
The new law
is a welcome
change to those
chargedwithen-
forcing it.
Waterways
Conservation
Officer John
Cummings,
who covers part
of Luzerne
County, saidany
move to make a
BUI chargesimi-
lar to a DUI will
serve as a stron-
ger deterrent
and save lives on the water.
Andjust asimportant, Cummingssaid, thenewlaw
should change mindsets about drinking and boating.
When I first started in1997 drinking while on the
water wasnt somethingthat manypeopleconsidered
tobeabigdeal, hesaid. But now, peoplearestarting
to recognize the danger. In some ways, a BUI is more
hazardous because youre dealing with water. If you
have a wreck, you dont have the option to get out of
your vehicle and wait on the side of the road.
As of last Wednesday, Pennsylvania Fish and Boat
Commission WCOs have issued15 BUI citations this
year. During the last five years, an average of 69 BUI
violations were issued annually.
The numbers are proof that drinkingwhile boating
is a problemthat needed to be dealt with.
Alot of peopleknowyoushouldnt drinkanddrive
a car, said Larry Bundy, regional supervisor for the
PFBCs Northeast Region. Boating is a recreational
activityandpeopledontthinkabouttheramifications
of drinking and operating a boat.
Bundy added that the effects of alcohol can be exa-
cerbated while on the water. The combination of
waves, windandsunmakesreactiontimesslowerand
increases fatigue, Bundy said. Add alcohol to the mix
and the situation gets worse.
Itssimplyabad, dangerouscombination,hesaid.
NormGavlick, aPFBCcommissioner representing
thenortheast region, saidtheagencys WCOs arecon-
stantly on the lookout for potential BUIs. The new
law, hesaid, isproof of howserioussuchincidentscan
be.
WhilepriorDUIsareconsideredasafirstoffensefor
anyone charged with a BUI, Gavlick said hed like to
seethesamewhenit comes tosentencingandlicense
suspension for anyone convicted of driving drunk.
According to PennDOTspokesman Craig Yetter, a
BUI convictionis not coveredunder thePennsylvania
Vehicle Code and is not considered in the driver li-
cense suspension/revocation process.
Bundy said there are efforts to change that as well.
Im optimistic that at some point the two will be
tiedtogether for driving under the influence as well,
he said.
Enforcers welcome
tougher boat laws
By TOMVENESKY
tvenesky@timesleader.com
An insect that has wiped out ash trees in
parts of the country has been found just
miles from Luzerne County.
Last week, the state Department of Agri-
culture said the Emerald Ash Borer, which
causes damage to Pennsylvanias $25 bil-
lion hardwoods industry, was discovered in
Monroe Township along Route 309 in
Wyoming County. The insect was also dis-
covered in Huntingdon County, marking
the 21st county in the state that is now
dealing with the invasive ash tree-killing
pest.
The public is urged not to transport fire-
wood more than 50 miles from where it
was purchased in order to help slow the
beetles spread.
With summer camping trips and bon-
fires under way, we urge all Pennsylvanians
and visitors to help prevent the further
spread of these pests by not hauling fire-
wood from place to place, said Secretary
of Agriculture George Greig.
The Pennsylvania Agriculture Depart-
ment Emerald Ash Borer survey crews
began hanging more than 2,000 triangular
purple traps from ash trees in eastern
Pennsylvania in May. The traps are de-
signed to attract flying adult beetles to
help detect further spread. Crews will con-
tinue to monitor the traps all summer and
remove them by the end of August.
Typically, the Emerald Ash Borer beetles
will kill an ash tree within three years of
the initial infestation. Adults are dark
green, one-half inch in length and one-
eighth inch wide, and fly only from early
May until September. Larvae spend the
rest of the year beneath the bark of ash
trees. When they emerge as adults, they
leave D-shaped holes in the bark about
one-eighth inch wide.
People who suspect they have found Em-
erald Ash Borer beetles should call the
departments toll-free pest hotline at 1-866-
253-7189.
The invasive Emerald Ash Borer beetle
was first detected in Pennsylvania in the
summer of 2007 in Butler County, and has
since been found in 20
other counties, including
Allegheny, Armstrong, Bea-
ver, Bedford, Centre, Clar-
ion, Cumberland, Fulton,
Indiana, Juniata, Lawrence,
Lycoming, Mercer, Mifflin,
Somerset, Union, Washing-
ton and Westmoreland, in
addition to the recent dis-
coveries in Huntingdon
and Wyoming counties.
A federal Emerald Ash
Borer quarantine restricts
moving ash nursery stock,
green lumber, and any
other ash material, in-
cluding logs, stumps, roots
and branches, from the state. However, due
to the difficulty in distinguishing between
species of hardwood firewood, all hard-
wood firewood and wood chipsincluding
ash, oak, maple and hickoryare consid-
ered quarantined.
The wood-boring beetle is native to Chi-
na and eastern Asia. The pest likely ar-
rived in North America in wooden shipping
materials. It was first detected in July
2002 in southeastern Michigan and neigh-
boring Windsor, Ontario, Canada. In addi-
tion to Pennsylvania, the beetle is attack-
ing ash trees in Illinois, Indiana, Iowa,
Kentucky, Maryland, Michigan, Minnesota,
Missouri, New York, Ohio, Virginia, West
Virginia and Wisconsin.
The national survey is being conducted
in cooperation with the U.S. Department of
Agricultures Animal and Plant Health In-
spection Service, the U.S. Forest Service
and the Pennsylvania Department of Con-
servation and Natural Resources Bureau of
Forestry.
More information about Pennsylvanias
Emerald Ash Borer detection and consum-
er education efforts, including weekly sur-
vey results, can be found at www.agricul-
ture.state.pa.us by searching Emerald Ash
Borer.
Insect found in 21 counties, including just miles from Luzerne
More than 2,000 purple traps have been put up in eastern Pa., including these on Route 29 in Beaumont, to detect the spread of Emerald Ash Borer.

Oregon has hired a high-
profile law firm and stayed
mum as questions mount
about the Ducks $25,000
payment to a Texas-based
recruiting service.
The NCAAis investigating
what appears to be an inflat-
ed payment for services pro-
vided by so-called street
agent Willie Lyles of Com-
plete Scouting Services in
Houston. At issue is whether
Lyles helped steer a highly
recruited player to Oregon.
Oregons silence will be
difficult to maintain as the
football season nears and the
Ducks will garner increasing
attentionbecause of their ap-
pearance in the BCS cham-
pionship game.
Oregon went 12-1 last sea-
son, falling to Auburn in the
titlegame. Theywereranked
No. 3 in the final AP Top 25.
Heisman Trophy finalist
LaMichael James led the na-
tion in rushing with 1,731
yards.
How Oregon can build on
that success will no doubt
take a backseat to the
schools payment to Lyles
when coach Chip Kelly faces
reporters on July 26 in Los
Angeles at the preseason
media day for the reconfi-
gured Pac-12.
Kelly has never comment-
ed on the matter, which sur-
faced this spring.
The schools last official
word came on July1, when it
released a statement by ath-
letic director Rob Mullens.
The Ducks deferred to the
statement when asked for
comment on this story.
The University of Oregon
athletic department has and
will continue to fully cooper-
ate with the NCAA inquiry,
Mullens said. Our depart-
ment is committed to help-
ing the NCAA in any way
possible and until their work
is complete, we are unable to
comment further. Oregon
athletics remains committed
to operating a program of in-
tegrity.
Oregon recently con-
firmed that it retained the le-
gal services of Bond, Schoe-
neck & King. Former NCAA
enforcement staffer Michael
Glazier leads the firms Col-
legiate Sports Practice
Group, which has become
known for representing
schools facing NCAA infrac-
tions.
The Ducks also are seek-
ing to hire a Professional
Development Coordinator
in the athletics department.
The job description includes
monitoring athlete-agent
activity and perform regular
surveillance on campus, in
the community and in cyber-
space for the purposes of
NCAA compliance and state
law.
But it may be too late to
save Oregon from sanctions.
Rumors of possible
recruiting violations first
swirled in February. Yahoo!
Sports and ESPN.com broke
the initial story that Oregon
had paid $28,000 in pay-
ments to two recruiting ser-
vices, which are commonly
used and typically provide
biographical information
and video about high school
and junior college players.
The amount the school
paid to Lyles raised eye-
brows, given his apparent
mentoring relationship with
Lache Seastrunk, a running
back who was recruited to
Oregon. Lyles also had ties
to James and accompanied
him to the Heisman ceremo-
ny in December.

FRANKFURT, GermanyThe
bumpy, windy road got the Amer-
icans right where they wanted to
go all along.
Eightmonthsafterhavingtowin
aplayoff just toget toGermany, the
Americans face Japan in the Wom-
ens World Cup final today. A win
would be the ultimate finish to
their improbable journey, making
the United States the first three-
time champions and delighting a
country of newfoundfans.
I believe all the way well find a
way, Carli Lloyd said Saturday af-
ter the teams last training session.
Its going to be a toughmatchlike
every other match has been, but I
believe that we will find a way and
its our destiny to get it done.
For a long time, the Americans
were about the only ones who be-
lievedthat.
TheU.S. istheNo.1-rankedteam
in the world and defending Olym-
pic champion, and the Americans
havedominatedthewomensgame
for the better part of two decades
now. But they arrived at the World
Cup looking, well, kind of average.
They were stunned in regional
qualifyinginNovember inMexico,
a team that hadnt managed a win
inits first 25 tries against its neigh-
bor to the north, and had to beat
Italy in a two-game playoff for the
last spot inthe WorldCup.
Theyopenedtheyearwithaloss
toSweden, thenfell toEnglandfor
the first time in22years solong
agoAlexMorganhadnt evenbeen
born yet. Then, after easy wins in
their first two games in Germany,
the Americans lost to Sweden
again, their first loss ever in World
Cup group play.
Inthepast, wedalways wonev-
erything, captain Christie Ram-
pone said. Those losses made our
teamwhatitistoday. Weneedeach
other and you feel that, from the
locker roomtothe time we stepon
the field.
Never was that faithineachoth-
er more evident than in their quar-
terfinal againstBrazil. Downaplay-
er for almost an hour and on the
verge of making their earliest exit
ever fromamajor tournament, Ab-
by Wambachs magnificent, leap-
ingheaderinthe122ndminutetied
the game and sparked one of the
most riveting finishes ever in a
WorldCupgamemens or wom-
ens.
The Americans beat Brazil in a
penaltyshootoutand, justlikethat,
the folks back home were hooked.
Hollywood celebrities, fellow
pro athletes and people who dont
care about any sport, let alone soc-
cer, have adopted the players. The
Brazil match drew the third-high-
est ratings ever for a Womens
WorldCupgame, andWednesdays
semifinal victory over France did
almost as well despite being
played in the middle of the work-
day back home.
The Empire State Building is lit
with the red, white and blue this
weekend, along with Japans col-
ors. And the White House is send-
ing an official delegation led by
VicePresidentJoeBidenswife, Jill,
andChelsea Clinton, whojust hap-
pened to be part of that massive
Rose Bowl crowd12 years ago, the
last timetheAmericans wontheti-
tle.
Weveprovedeveryonewrong,
Lloyd said. NowI think everyone
is starting to believe inus.
While part of the U.S. appeal is
its success here, its the teams
spunkthathasreallycharmedfans,
a can-do attitude uniquely
proudly American.
This might not be the best team
theU.S. has ever had, but nonewill
try harder.

Marie Hammarstromscoredin
the 82nd minute Saturday, giv-
ing short-handed Sweden a 2-1
victory over France in the
third-place game at the Wom-
ens World Cup.
Down a player for almost 15
minutes after Josefine Oqvist
was sent off for kicking Sonia
Bompastor in the chest, Swe-
den won a corner kick that the
French managed to clear at the
near post. But the ball popped
out to Hammarstrom, who
faked out a defender with a
small side-volley, touched the
ball a second time and then let
fly with a thunderous left-foot-
ed strike from the edge of the
box.
It was Hammarstroms first-
ever goal for Sweden, and it al-
lowed the Swedes to do the
hippity-hoppity dance thats
become their trademark one
last time.
Lotta SchelinstakedSweden
to an early lead, scoring her
second goal of the tournament
in the 29th minute. Sara Lars-
son booted the ball fromabout
midfield and Schelin, running
at a dead sprint, caught up to it
at the edge of the box. As
French goalkeeper Berangere
Sapowicz rushedout to try and
smother theball, Schelindeftly
flicked it into the net with the
outside of her right foot.
The two then collided, and
Sapowicz came down on the
outside of her right ankle. She
immediately fell to the ground
and was soon removed from
the game.
Despite losing silky smooth
playmaker Louisa Necib to an
injury in the 32nd minute,
France managed to equalize in
the 56th. Blanketed by three
defenders, Gaetane Thiney
lost the ball but quickly man-
agedtoreclaimit andslide it to
Elodie Thomas, who had re-
placed Necib.

French for

Today will fea-
ture a good deal
of sunshine,
however the "air
you can wear" is
coming back
today as the
temperature
climbs into the
upper 80s.
There is a slight
chance for a
shower, but most
of us will remain
dry through the
weekend. A cold
front will push
south from
upstate New
York on Monday,
and it will likely
spawn showers
and thunder-
storms Monday
afternoon
through Tuesday
morning. It will
likely push far
enough south to
keep Tuesday
afternoon and
evening dry.
More rain show-
ers are likely the
rest of the week
along with hot
afternoon tem-
peratures.
- Kurt Aaron
NATIONAL FORECAST: Showers and thunderstorms are expected across portions of the Southeast
today, some of which could contain heavy rain. Strong thunderstorms are possible in the northern
portions of the Midwest, as well. In the Northwest, an upper level storm system will bring a chance of
rain to the region.

BUSINESS S E C T I O N D
timesleader.com
I
s it possible the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania may finally get out of
the liquor-selling business? Thats
what is being proposed by House Ma-
jority Leader Mike Turzai, and with
another anti-state-store politico in the
governors chair it might just become
reality.
Not that those who benefit from the
current status, or who think they do,
wont hang on for dear life. Theyre
raising the usual dire warnings of un-
employed clerks, rampant underage
sales and lost revenue if the state gives
up its monopoly in favor of a proposed
1,250 independent stores, twice as
many as the state now operates.
There also are concerns that allowing
one company say, Walmart to own
up to 40 licenses will stifle competition.
That seems unfounded as long as
wholesale costs are consistent for all
licensees. Dont forget, the complaints
about Liquor Control Board-operated
stores arent just about price, many
customers want to see a wider selec-
tion, particularly of wines, rather than
the preponderance of usual suspects or
unknowns likely chosen for their profit
potential rather than their quality.
For that reason, its important that
licensees have access to a wide range of
products, which means the wholesale
network must be unfettered as well.
If this scheme becomes reality, execu-
tion will be important, both from fi-
nancial and public perception points of
view.
To avoid charges of favoritism, the
state must hire an independent party to
sell licenses to the highest bidder.
Their incentive would be the more they
can get, the more commission theyd
make.
One needs to look no further than
the bungled wine kiosks for proof
that the LCB shouldnt be trusted with
this task. You will recall that the agency
contracted with a Bucks County firm to
build and install 100 of these $100,000
behemoths in supermarkets across the
state. Not only was their operation
confusing and cumbersome purchas-
ers had to blow into a breathalyzer
before being allowed to buy the
things proved so troublesome that
Wegmans kicked theirs out.
And please, spare us the argument
that by controlling wine and liquor
sales the Commonwealth is keeping
our youth away from demon rum.
When researching a column written in
2007, I found that the Bureau of Liquor
Control Enforcement does not conduct
compliance checks of state stores, so
there is no real record of their perform-
ance.
Whats obviously more important to
the LCB, judging by its 57-page, glossy
annual report, is how much booze they
can push and how much money that
can make. The pages are filled with
colorful close-up photos of flowing
liquor and wine bottles, along with
soaring rhetoric about record sales and
profits. I couldnt find a sentence about
prevention of underage drinking, or any
other kind of alcohol abuse, for that
matter.
If theres any legitimate concern
about going private its this; taxes alone
may not equal potential ongoing reve-
nue from the combination of markup
and taxes the LCB has enjoyed. Were
not talking small change here; in the
fiscal year that ended June 30 the LCB
turned in almost $500 million to the
state treasury, on sales of nearly $2
billion.
But it seems that with a reasonable
level of taxation, more stores and better
customer service Pennsylvania inde-
pendent stores could capture sales that
now go to neighboring states, whether
for lower prices or wider selection.
But even if tax receipts fall a little
short, its time to let the free market in
on this lucrative trade. Id rather deal
with my choice of 1,250 entrepreneurs
than with one government monopoly.

IF YOU HAVE an
infant or toddler or
know someone who
does, visit Babies R
Us before Friday to
get discounted clear-
ance clothes for very
low prices. The store
dubbed the event the Stuff Your Bag
sale and was offering free tote bags to
customers and allowing them to take
an additional 30 percent off as many
clearance-priced items that they could
fit in the tote. The sale was so popular
they ran out of totes, but there are still
plenty of clothes on the racks, some as
low as $2.10. And the store should still
honor the extra 30 percent off deal.
Just ask.
If you have older kids, such as those
about to go to college, head to Target
to grab a must-have dorm accessory:
the 2.8 cubic-foot Emerson dry-erase
fridge. The item is on sale for $89, plus
theres a $10-off coupon on page 9 of
the Target circular found in todays
edition of The Times Leader.
If youll need to get caffeinated for
the shopping spree, first stop by your
local Starbucks, buy a pack of Star-
bucks VIA Iced Coffee and get a free
tall Starbucks drink of your choice.
The deal is good today only.
After your shopping jaunt, youll
likely be hungry. Luckily, Friendlys
restaurants have introduced a handful
of new summer selection menu items
including a tasty Sweet n Spicy Chick-
en SuperMelt sandwich. The sandwich
and an order of fries cost $6.99. Print

the nearby Lamp Factory, 790 Kidder
St., and buy any stained glass night-
light cover. If you do, the store will
give you a free nightlight plug-in to
attach the cover to. The plug-ins are
sold for $5.95.
A day full of shopping, eating and
saving money will likely require a

A
t one time, Luzerne County was home to two Ground Round restaurants, part of a
rush of moderately priced family dining spots to the region in recent years. But vari-
ous factors, according to one former owner including the states smoking ban, led to the
eateries in Hazle and Wilkes-Barre townships closing their doors in 2009.
Now one of the two buildings that
housed a Ground Round has a new
life. The other is slated to be sold at a
back-tax auction next month.
First National Community Bank,
based in Dunmore, through foreclo-
sure proceedings acquired the Mundy
Street building after the Ground
Round closed its doors, according to
Joseph Eriyes, the banks first vice
president of retail lending. FNCB de-
cided to convert the building into a
training facility for its employees.
The kitchen, bar, cold storage and
booths were removed from the 5,200-
square-foot building whose former
tenant once boasted Weve Got What
You Like.
Mike Cummings, marketing spe-
cialist with FNCB, said the bank be-
lieved the location was good for the
training center. It had been using an
area inside the banks Exeter branch
but outgrew it.
Cummings, who was hired five
months ago, said he was among the
employees who underwent training at
the center, which opened a year ago
without fanfare or publicity. He said
the location made sense since 10 of

SUKABUMI, Indonesia Workers
making Converse sneakers in Indone-
sia say supervisors throw shoes at
them, slap them in the face and call
them dogs and pigs. Nike, the brands
owner, admits that such abuse has oc-
curred among the contractors that
make its hip high-tops but says there
was little it could do to stop it.
Dozens of workers interviewed by
The Associated Press and a document
released by Nike show that the foot-
wear and athletic apparel giant has far
to go to meet the standards it set for it-
self a decade ago to end its reliance on
sweatshop labor.
That does not appear toexplainabus-
es that workers allege at the Pou Chen
Group factory in Sukabumi, some 100
kilometers (60miles) fromJakartait
didnt start making Converse products
until four years after Nike bought Con-
verse. One worker there said she was
kicked by a supervisor last year after
making a mistake while cutting rubber
for soles.
Were powerless, said the woman,
who like several others interviewed
spoke on condition of anonymity out of
fear of reprisals. Our only choice is to
stay and suffer, or speak out and be
fired.
The 10,000 mostly female workers at
the Taiwanese-operated Pou Chen
plant make around 50 cents an hour.
Thats enough, for food and bunk-
house-type lodging, but little else.

CHICAGO Everywhere you
turn, green jobs are touted for their
ability to pull the nationout of its eco-
nomic slump. But what exactly is a
green job? Is the U.S. creating any?
Do they pay?
For the first time since the term
was coined, someone has answers.
A seminal study released last week
by the Brookings Institution defines
the term and has determined where
such jobs exist. The report makes it
possible for policymakers to see
which industries are producing such
jobs and where and how the clean
economy is growing.
The information is crucial to pol-
icymakers who have been throwing
millions of dollars into a green econ-
omy with the hope that enough jobs
will be created to offset the huge
numbers that have been lost.
Brookings also examined green
competition, not only between cities
and regions but also globally, and de-
termined that U.S. firms were losing
market share to foreign competitors.
Lets be candid about this, said
Howard Learner, president and exec-
utive director of the Environmental
Lawand Policy Center in Chicago, an
environmental advocacy organiza-
tion. There are a lot of cities and lot
of countries who are competing. If
were not aggressive, other compet-
ing cities and countries will eat our
lunch.
Until the Brookings report, the
term clean economy hadnt been
defined. That made finding, counting
and nurturing green jobs difficult, if
not impossible.
Brookings pulled together data
from the U.S. Environmental Protec-
tion Agency, the U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics and other sources to come
up with a definition. It defines clean
economy as economic activity
measured in terms of establishments
and the jobs associated with them
that produces goods and services
with an environmental benefit or
adds value to such products using
skills or technologies that are unique-
ly applied to those products. The re-
port used only direct jobs and de-
fines environmental benefits as those
that prevent or minimize pollution or
natural resource depletion.
The great purpose of this study is
to help policymakers understand

In addition to training, the of-
fice is usedfor some lending offi-
cers, but no banking takes place
there. He said there are no plans
toconvert the building, or evena
portion of it, into a branch loca-
tion.
The decision to renovate the
empty building into a usable,
tax-generating entity that brings
people into the county daily was
welcomed by the Greater
Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Busi-
ness and Industry.
FNCBs redevelopment of
this property is obviously a posi-
tive not just because it repre-
sents new private investment in
greater Wilkes-Barre, but also
because it represents the reuse
and repurposing of a formerly
vacant restaurant property, said
Larry Newman, the chambers
vice president of planning, poli-
cy, and development. As the
country struggles with the im-
pacts of over-storing andthe re-
cessions national impact on re-
tailing, this is a trend that will
continue.
The fate of the 5,360-square-
foot building near the Laurel
Mall that once had the Ground
Round sign hanging over its
doors is not as clear.
Owned by Mall Pubs Inc., of
Lancaster, the building is slated
to be auctioned off at a back-tax
sale Aug. 10 at the Luzerne
County Courthouse. The open-
ing bid is $897.25. The building
can be removed from the sale if
Mall Pubs Inc. pays $48,887 in
back taxes before the auction be-
gins.
The GroundRoundrestaurant
onMundy Street openedin2002
on the site of the old General
Cinemas. When the decision to
close the eatery was announced
in March of 2009, then-owner
John Bevevino said that while
the economy played a part in the
closing, the bigger impact came
from Harrisburg.
It was Gov. (Ed) Rendells
smoking law, Bevevino said at
the time. His liquor sales fell 25
percent as a result of the ban, he
said, and people went to nearby
taverns with exemptions from
the smoking ban that went into
effect Sept. 11, 2008.

Mira Agustina, 30, saidshewas

It was a horrible job, she said.
Our bosses pointed their feet at

to Muslims. Indonesia is the
worlds most populous Muslim
nation.
At the PTAmara Footwear fac-
tory located just outside Jakarta,
where another Taiwanese con-
tractor makes Converse shoes, a
supervisor ordered six female
workers to stand in the blazing
sun after they failed to meet their
target of completing 60 dozen
pairs of shoes on time.
They were cryingandallowed
to continue their job only after
two hours under the sun, said
Ujang Suhendi, 47, a worker at a
warehouse in the factory. The
womens supervisor received a
warning letter for the May inci-
dent after complaints from
unionized workers.
The companys own inquiries
also found workers at the two fac-
tories were subjected to serious
and egregious physical and ver-
bal abuse, including the puni-
shment of forcing workers to
stand in the sun, said Hannah
Jones, a Nike executive whoover-
sees the companys efforts to im-
prove working conditions.
We do see other issues of that
similar nature coming up across
the supply chain but not on a fre-
quent level, she said. We see is-
sues of working conditions on a
less egregious nature across the
board.
Nike, which came under heavy
criticism a decade ago for its use
of foreign sweatshops and child
labor, has taken steps since then
to improve conditions at its 1,000
overseas factories. But the pro-
gress it has made at factories pro-
ducing gear with its premier
swoosh logo is not fully reflect-
ed in those making Converse
products.
An internal report Nike re-
leased to the AP after it inquired
about the abuse showthat nearly
two-thirds of 168 factories mak-
ing Converse products world-
wide fail to meet Nikes own stan-
dards for contract manufactur-
ers.
Twelve are in the most serious
category, indicating problems
that could range from illegally
long work hours to denying ac-
cess to Nike inspectors. A Nike
spokeswoman said the company
was not aware of physical abuse
occurring at those factories. An-
other 97 are in a category defined
as making no progress in improv-
ing problems ranging fromisolat-
ed verbal harassment to paying
less than minimum wage. A fur-
ther sixfactories hadnot beenau-
dited by Nike.
Nike blames problems on pre-
existing licenses to produce Con-
verse goods that it says prevent
the parent company from in-
specting factories or introducing
its own code of conduct.
It says the situation is further
complicated because the license
holders themselves usually farm
out the production work to a sub-
contractor. Most of the agree-
ments have come up for renewal
inthepast fiveyears. But it is only
the past two years that it has
made a concerted effort to incor-
porate Converse factories into
the monitoring program that ap-
plies to Nike factories.
We have been working every
time we can to renew those
agreements or change those
agreements or to cease those
agreements and to ensure that
when we do new agreements we
get more ability to influence the
licensee and their subcontractors
much more directly, Jones said.
Some corporate experts ques-
tion whether the company is do-
ing all it can.
I simplyfindit impossiblethat
a company of the size and market
power of Nike is impotent in per-
suading a local factory in Indone-
sia or anywhere else in meeting
its code of conduct, saidPrakash
Sethi, a corporate strategy pro-
fessor at Baruch College at the
City University of New York.
Critics of outsourcing manu-
facturing to the lowest-cost coun-
tries say it keeps prices down but
allows apparel, electronics and
toy companies to reduce their ac-
countability for the conditions in
such factories. Even as concern
about sweatshop labor has
grown, some contractors have
simply moved operations to
more remote areas, farther from
the prying eyes of international
and local watchdogs.
Indonesia is Nikes third-large-
st manufacturing base, after Chi-
na and Vietnam, with 140,000
workers at 14 contract factories.
Of those, 17,000 produce its Con-
verse line at four factories.
Nike has not published the lo-
cations of all factories making
products for affiliate companies,
which includes Converse, but
plans to by the end of the year.

what the clean economy is, to
make it clear to economic lead-
ers what the trends are and al-
low them to make good eco-
nomic decisions, said Mark
Muro, senior fellow and policy
director at the Metropolitan
Policy Program at Brookings
and co-author of the study.
The report recommends that
policymakers tailor regional
and local policies to the most
promising areas of the clean
economy.
For instance, 13 major wind
companies are headquartered
in Illinois. And while the indus-
try is still small compared with
other green job creators, it has
grown 39 percent since 2003,
second only to solar, according
to Brookings.
If we could develop more
wind resources in Illinois, but
also in Minnesota and Iowa,
that could help support the re-
gion overall and drive invest-
ment, said Steve Frenkel, di-
rector of the Midwest office of
the Union of Concerned Scien-
tists, a watchdog organization.
Over the years, the debate
over greenjobcreationhas been
fraught with politics and fre-
quently short on facts. Contro-
versy over the nature of global
warming has some high-profile
environmental groups backing
off the green bandwagon alto-
gether in an effort to reach
some kind of bipartisan consen-
sus.
One such effort, led by the
Pew Charitable Trusts is the
Clean Energy Economy initia-
tive, led by former Michigan
Gov. Jennifer Granholm. In a re-
cent meeting with the Tribune,
Granholm said the group is re-
framing its focus on the eco-
nomic benefits that clean-ener-
gy policy can bring, rather than
its environmental advantages.
In his State of the Union ad-
dress this year, President Ba-
rack Obama touted the green
sector as a way to create count-
less new jobs. But without a
clear definition, states set their
own green standards, often at
conflict with one another.
Weve got different stan-
dards in different states. The
U.S. needs a coherent and con-
sistent national energy policy,
said Frenkel.
The private sector will play
the lead role in driving growth,
according to Brookings, but the
government needs to help that
growth by investing in research
and development and creating
markets for green products and
services.
Governments could purchase
green products instead of tradi-
tional products. The federal
government purchases $500 bil-
lion in goods and services an-
nually, and state and local gov-
ernments spend an additional
$400 billion, according to
Brookings. Not to mention the
500,000 buildings they occupy
and600,000 vehicles they drive.
Any job where you can make
a decision, you can make a
green decision, said Karen
Weigert, chief sustainability of-
ficer for the city of Chicago.

Over the years, the

Q: My co-worker, Angie, sent
me a seething email saying that I
talkabout teamwork, but dont act
likeateamplayer. Thiswasacom-
pletely unexpected slam against
me. I told our manager, and he
spoke to Angie about it, but noth-
ing else was done.
Now, whenever I encounter An-
gie anywhere in the building, she
immediately turns around and
walks the other way. This blatant
disrespect bothers me, because I
dont deserve that kind of treat-
ment.
Mybosssaysthatsjusttheway
she is, but Angie doesnt seemto
act like this with anyone else. She
doesnt have to like me, but we do
have to work together, so I cant
take much more of this.
A: Before I address Angies chil-
dishbehavior, letmepointouttwo
missed opportunities in this sce-
nario. First, after receiving the
nastyemail, youcouldhavetalked
with Angie directly instead of go-
ing to your boss. Her gutless elec-
tronicattackmayhavestartedthis
grudge match, but your own cow-
ardice only exacerbated the prob-
lem.
A direct conversation might
havestartedlikethis: Angie, Iwas
very disturbed by your email and
would really like to discuss what-
ever I have done toupset you. I do
want to be a team player, so if I
haveunintentionallyoffendedyou
or created a problem, I want to
knowabout it.
The second opportunity was
missed by your manager, who
should have brought the two of
youtogether to resolve the under-
lying issue.
If she continues to sulk, ask
your boss to facilitate a problem-
solving discussion, because face-
to-facecommunicationis theonly
way to end this stalemate.
Q: I seemtobe experiencingan
increase in responsibility without
any change in title or pay. I work
for a large health care company
that is headquartered in another
state. Inadditiontomyself, our of-
fice includes a part-time assistant
and a newly hired employee.
Although the new employee
andI have the same title, our boss
has made me the lead person in
the office. He expects me to coor-
dinate communications and en-
surethat everythingruns smooth-
ly. We will soon be hiring another
person, making me responsible
for three employees. This would
seemto warrant a promotion, but
Im not sure how to broach the
subject.
A: In human resources terms,
youareaskingfor your positionto
be reclassified, whichseems like a
reasonable request. In any large
organization, however, reclassifi-
cation to a management position
is likely tobe governedby specific
policies and procedures.
When recruiting begins for the
third employee, talk with your
boss about the possibility of a pro-
motion. If he turns you down, ask
him to explain the requirements
for becoming a supervisor. But
above all, do not be shy about
making this request.

PHILADELPHIA -- Sales of Be-
yond Knitting Concepts fashion
merchandise total just $600. Yet
Aisha Alexander, cofounder of the
venture started a little more than
sixmonthsagowithaknittingbud-
dy, confidently describes herself as
a successful business owner.
Itsall aboutyourstateof mind,
theSouthPhiladelphiaresident ex-
plained.
Yuri Schneibergsees it different-
ly. In fact, hes staking a new busi-
ness venture on a belief that hes
right. Success as a small-business
owner requires much more than a
positiveoutlook, Schneibergsaid--
it requires an education specially
designedfor entrepreneurs.
As executive director of Learn-
Quest inBalaCynwyd, Schneiberg
has spent thelast13years conduct-
ing employee-training programs
for large corporations. His newini-
tiative aims to serve the opposite
end of the business spectrum: the
small operator.
Besides turning a profit,
Schneiberg is out to improve what
isadistressingstatistic: that50per-
cent of small businesses fail within
their first five years.
Schneiberg attributes that to
people launching businesses with-
out a number of essentials, includ-
ing a marketing plan, adequate fi-
nancing, effective communication
skills, anda wise physical location.
Small-business owners are often
drivenbytheskillstheyhave,but
they lack the vocational prepared-
ness to translate those skills into
thriving enterprises, Schneiberg
said.
LearnQuests new program, ex-
pected to seat its first class in Sep-
tember, will combinethetradition-
al MBA curriculum with a hands-
on learning approach characteris-
tic of vocational education, plus
one-on-one mentoring. That will
be offered over 10 months for
$14,500. (Details can be found at
http://www.learnquest.edu/.)
At Beyond Knitting Concepts,
the self-assured Alexander ac-
knowledgedthat shemaynot have
the skills needed to achieve her
goal of startinga nonprofit that en-
courages youths to express them-
selves creatively.
Now 30, Alexander was a mar-
ketingandadvertisingmajor at the
University of Miami, where her in-
terpersonal skills were adequately
developed, she said. The other
stuff sheneedstoexcel inbusiness?
Not so much.
As far as financials, overhead,
inventory, hiringemployees, insur-
ance I amnot too strong, Alex-
ander said.
Those sentiments were echoed
by a relative business veterancom-
paredtoAlexander: DahliaWigfall.
Her four-year-old Red House stu-
dio in East Falls teaches sewing
and offers for sale the clothing and
accessoriesmadethere. Inacorner
of theconvertedrowhouseonMid-
vale Avenue, Alexanders hand-
iwork is also available.
Ive always been an artist, said
Wigfall, 34, holding a lampshade
shewasjazzingupwithfabricflow-
ers and dangling accessories. Her
business is kindof taking off now.
Imlackingtheskillstoreallymake
it happen.
For instance, Wigfall asked, how
does shedeterminewhat tocharge
or how many pieces need to be
made to make a profit?
Its a simple thing to a business
mind, she said. But to a creative
mind. . . its tough. I come in, andI
just want to create.

AZIGZAG DURING EARNINGS
Need proof that stocks are vol-
atile during earnings season?
This list, put together by the
analysts at Bespoke Invest-
ment Group, highlights the
companies that have the big-
gest one-day price swings after
releasing their results. Shares
of online travel sites Travelzoo
and Priceline.com fluctuate by
an average of 15 percent fol-
lowing earnings reports. But
the choppy performance
shouldnt scare investors. Even
with the volatility, most of these
stocks have posted gains so
far this year.
SUGAR BUZZ
Talk about a sugar
high. Imperial Sug-
ar, which sells its
products under the
Imperial and Dixie Crystals brands,
is up 83 percent over the last three
months. The stock has risen 90 per-
cent over the last year. Sugar pric-
es have spiked 66 percent in the
last 12 months, in part, because of
wet weather that has hurt crops in
Brazil, says Jack Scoville, vice
president of Price Futures Group.
Brazil is the worlds largest sugar
producer. Analysts think Imperial
can keep rising. The average price
target on the stock is $26.33. That
suggests the stock can go up an-
other 15 percent over the next year.

SIZING UP IPOS IN THE 2Q
The second quarter was a good
one for investors in IPOs. Forty-six
companies went public in the U.S.,
a 24 percent increase from a year
earlier, according to research firm
Renaissance Capital. Technology
companies had some of the big-
gest gains with professional net-
working site. LinkedIn rose 100
percent from its offering price dur-
ing the quarter. Investors have
been buying technology IPOs be-
cause they have good prospects
for growth. Tech fever will likely
continue later this year, too. Cou-
pon site Groupon, game maker
Zynga and online real estate listing
service Zillow have all submitted
plans to go public.

The easy money has been made
in municipal bonds, but theres still
some opportunity for returns, says
Joe Baxter. He is head of munici-
pal bonds for Delaware Invest-
ments, which manages $5 billion in
municipal mutual funds and institu-
tional accounts.
Muni prices have recovered from
the panic selling of late last year,
when investors were worried about
predictions for widespread defaults
among municipalities. Long-term na-
tional municipal bond funds have re-
turned an average of 5 percent so
far in 2011, about as good as many
stock funds. Muni bond income is
exempt from federal income taxes.
Has all the
panic left
the muni
market?
I dont think
its panicked
any longer,
though
(investors
are) not
rushing back
to the mar-
ket. Some of
that could be
attributable
to interest
rates. Some of the sell-off in the
municipal bond market, going
back to last October, started be-
cause of interest rate fears.
(Rising interest rates mean lower
prices for bonds.)
That was the first key: We hit
these lows in interest rates, and
as interest rates started to tick up,
we started to see some (investors
flee). Then the fears (about possi-
ble defaults) threw the gas on the
fire, and that really took hold in
November, December, January
and continued into February.
That was the height of the
credit fears. I believe that is over.
With municipalities, while youve
seen a lot of headlines about
states getting their budgets done,
youve seen them making cuts,
making some tough political
choices. And that has helped with
the confidence of the market.
But weve seen warnings that
credit ratings for New Jersey
and other big states could get
downgraded.
The thing to remember here is
state general obligation bonds
(which are backed by tax revenue)
are at the upper end of the credit
scale in the municipal bond mar-
ket. They may be on a negative
outlook or negative watch for po-
tential downgrade, but were talk-
ing about AAA going to AA or AA
going to A. We still think that state
general obligation is the safest
bond in the municipal bond market.
Wont states get hurt by the
federal budget cuts that look
inevitable?
States arent going to see any aid
from the federal government.
(But) the states are going to push
their problems down to the local
level, and the local level is going
to be forced to make difficult
choices. Some are going to make
the difficult choices, and some are
not, and theyre going to be under
more pressure.
So it s not too late to buy
municipal bonds?
Am I saying its a great opportunity
now? No. Its according to where an
investor is: If theyre adding to fixed
income at this time, I wouldnt hesi-
tate to add to the municipal bond
market, and I certainly wouldnt hesi-
tate to add to state general obliga-
tion bonds.
Certainly the easy money is off
the table ... but you have to ask
yourself, Where are rates going?
Who had them going (as low as 2.87
percent last week)? Alot of folks
didnt have it going there.
There are a lot of things that are
out there now (that can push rates
lower, which would help muni bond
prices): the European situation,
theres our own debt limit and
(poor) employment numbers. If
Treasury rates and interest rates
just stay here, you can still put up
a decent return.
What kind of investors are muni
bonds good for? Only those in
the 28 percent tax bracket, like a
married couple who make more
than $137,300?
I think from 28 percent on out,
you can look at some allocation
to municipals.

InsiderQ&A
The weak job market is partic-
ularly tough on companies like
staffing agencies, payroll proces-
sors and office building owners.
The stock in staffing agency Man-
power is down 10 percent since
the government said June 3 that
only 54,000 jobs were created in
May a number later revised
down to 25,000. The S&P 500 is
down 0.3 percent.
Some of these stocks could be
good long-term good buys.
Deutsche Bank predicts that the
unemployment rate will fall to 8.4
percent by December from 9.2
percent in June. When people get
back to work and the economic
recovery is back on track, busi-
ness should be good for these
companies.

Employers dont have as much need for ADP, Paychex and others
to handle their payrolls. Conditions look particularly bleak for small
businesses. More of them cut jobs than added for the 41st straight

Stock
Screener
Heres a question to ask before you buy your
next stock: Is the company trading above or
below its average price over the past 50 days?
Traders pay close attention to whats known
as the 50-day moving average. They believe that
if a company is above that level, it is a sign of
strength and an indication that a stock may keep
rising. If a stock is below the 50-day moving
average, many traders believe its a warning that
it may keep falling.
This screen, powered by FactSet, identifies
companies in the S&P 500 index that are trading
above their 50-day moving average. All have
outperformed the S&P 500 this year. Theyre
also appealing because they look relatively
cheap; each company has a price-to-earnings
ratio below 15, the level of the S&P 500.
Health insurers Humana and UnitedHealth
Group are at the top of the list. Health care
companies have been popular with investors this
year because theyre some of the safest stocks
in the market. Their earnings have also improved
because more people are enrolling in their plans,
while health care use has risen slower than
many insurers expected.

Yields fall on Europe worries
The yield of the 10-year Treasury note fell to 2.91
percent this past week. Concerns about Europe's
debt problems prompted investors to keep buying
lower-risk assets. The average rate on a 15-year
fixed mortgage, a popular refinancing option, fell
to 3.65 percent. That is its lowest point of the
year. The average rate on a 30-year loan fell to
4.51 percent.

Know the answer? Send it to us with Foolish Trivia on the top and
youll be entered into a drawing for a nifty prize!
answer can be no.
Dont despair, though. You can
still invest effectively in drugs, via
pharmaceutical giants such as Merck
and Eli Lilly. Although the idea for a
new drug might start with a scientist
working for a small development-
stage company, its likely to end up
marketed and sold by these big guns,
which often buy or license drug tech-
nology from small developers. They
may even fund drug development at
small firms in exchange for market-
ing rights. (You might also look at
big biotech firms, such as Amgen.)
Focus on pharmaceutical giants
with broad and deep product pipe-
lines. To see some that our analysts
have recommended, try our Motley
Fool Inside Value newsletter for
free, at www.insidevalue.fool.com.
Another option is to invest in a
mutual fund or exchange-traded fund
(ETF) that focuses on biotechnology
stocks. That way your money will be
diversified across many companies.
Smart investors try to stick to
what they understand. If youre
not a scientist, think twice before
investing in a small, unproven firm
pinning its hopes on a possible big
breakthrough.

Cisco Undervalued
Looking for a good performer for
your portfolio? Consider Cisco Sys-
tems (Nasdaq: CSCO).
Some think the company is in
major trouble. Amid a more competi-
tive landscape, gross profit margins
have fallen, as has net income. In
switches and routers, generating
much of Ciscos revenues, the com-
pany has been losing ground. Cisco
has also been too slow to take advan-
tage of other key areas of networking
growth such as WAN optimization.
Yes, Cisco took its eye off the
ball, delving into consumer markets
and letting small upstarts get in the
game. But it seems to be acknowl-
edging its mistakes.
In its recent quarterly report, man-
agement asserted that it will divest
or exit underperforming operations
and it has killed its Flip video
recorder. Management vowed to
refocus on core businesses: routing,
switching, and other services (cloud,
virtualization and mobility solutions).
Meanwhile, the market is pricing
Cisco as if it will undergo a total
catastrophe. Cisco is still the gold
standard and the go-to when it comes
to overall enterprise solutions, enjoy-
ing massive advantages of scale. And
its stock price seems cheap, with a
recent price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio
near 12 vs. a five-year average of
20. Cisco churns out gobs of free
cash flow every year and offers a
1.6 percent dividend yield, as well.
(Motley Fool newsletters have
recommended buying options and
shares of Cisco Systems.)

I could have lost my shirt, twice.
I love my brokerages online plat-
form. Type in a ticker symbol, and
out spews any information you
want: charts, news, analysis, and
so on. But when you go to place
an order and you enter the ticker,
you get lots of info, but not the
company name.
This shouldnt be a problem, but
twice now, over some seven years,
Ive entered my order
and later found out I had
transposed letters in ticker
symbols. The first time,
I found out the day after the order
filled, so it cost me $14 in commis-
sions to buy and sell the stock over
two days. The other time, I only
noticed because the stock suddenly
surged 14 percent, and I looked into
what my boring old manufacturer
could have done to wow the market.
Oops. D.M., Lincoln, Neb.
The Fool Responds: This lesson
seems trivial, but its important.
Some companies tickers arent
what you might expect: Intel,
for example, is INTC, not INTL.
Most brokerages trading systems
will show you the company name
when you enter the ticker, so
double-check.
Do you have an embarrassing
lesson learned the hard way?

Researching Risks
Q
How can I research the risks
facing various companies?
R.M., Woodbridge, Va.
A
Companies disclose many risks
on their own. Publicly traded
American enterprises are required to
file annual 10-K reports with the
Securities and Exchange Commis-
sion (SEC). Accessible at websites
such as finance.yahoo.com and
from the companies themselves,
they detail a companys financial
and operational progress and also
address risks facing the business.
For example, General Electrics
recent 10-K cites many risk factors
the company faces: Significant raw
material shortages, supplier capac-
ity constraints, supplier production
disruptions, supplier quality issues
or price increases could increase our
operating costs and adversely impact
the competitive positions of our
products.
Other risks include global politi-
cal or economic volatility that could
disrupt business, computer crimes
that could threaten company systems,
deteriorating conditions in financial
markets that could hurt GE Capital,
and increases in the cost of pension
and health-care benefits that could
reduce company profitability.
Many companies cite increased
regulation worldwide as a risk, which
increases their cost of doing business.
In developing nations, the lack of rel-
evant laws or the presence of new and
untested laws can also be an issue.
Dont let the risks listed in
10-Ks make you want to avoid
investing in any company at all.
Every company faces risks. They
shouldnt scare you away, but do
consider them. Also, know that

delivering powerful long-term per-

Biotech stocks can be volatile. For

CONFIDENTIALITY
is an important consid-
eration in any recruit-
ment. Applicants are
concerned about the
potential damage to
their present job secu-
rity and long-term
career opportunities if premature dis-
closure of their interest in another posi-
tion is made public.
That easily understood statement is
contained in the readily available profes-
sional guidelines for selecting county
administrators as published by the In-
ternational City/County Management
Association. Located in Washington,
D.C., its mission is to create excellence
in local governance by developing and
fostering professional local government
management worldwide.
Yet, not surprisingly, many of those
people nominated in May for seats on
the inaugural Luzerne County Council
that will select the countys new chief
executive seem ready to expose the
identities of everyone who might show
an interest in this most important posi-
tion.
Such rank amateurism will only limit
the quality and quantity of exceptional
administrators interested in the position.
Many talented professionals simply will
opt out because their current employers
would soon learn of their actions or
because the bush-league council would,
in the eyes of superb managers, be found
wanting.
Ladies and gentlemen, elect the wrong
crowd to county council and the same
lack of professionalism, to which we
have all grown accustomed, will send the
most accomplished administrators run-
ning for the courthouse exits.
The ICMA guidelines do not mince
words: From a recruiting standpoint,
assurance of confidentiality will result in
more applications being submitted,
particularly from those who are presently
employed elsewhere. Serious applicants
will not submit a rsum for consid-
eration until they have done their home-
work and satisfied themselves that the
vacant position does represent a good
career opportunity. The goal of every
search for a new county executive should
be the selection of the finest person
possible. It is wise to surmise that the
best man or woman already is employed
and performing at a high level. If their
application to Luzerne County cannot be
maintained in the strictest confidence, it
simply will not be submitted.
The Times Leader recently reported
that eight politicos for county council
Michelle Bednar, Kathleen Dobash,
William James, Rick Morelli, Gina Ne-
venglosky, Eileen Sorokas and the two
Urbans, Steve and Steve would vote
to divulge the names of applicants for
the position of county executive. Such an
action would only reduce the pool of
possible applicants and virtually elim-
inate the most independent, thoughtful
and experienced contenders from the
job.
Oh, the more things change .
In its list of Dos and Donts when
searching for a county manager the
ICMA specifically states, Dont limit
your recruitment and investigation to
home towners and dont release for
publication any names or local govern-
ments of candidates.
In early June the Luzerne County
home rule transition committee attempt-
ed a compromise and included language
that would publicize the names and
rsums of only the finalists for county
executive. The ICMA contemplates that
finalists will eventually become known
as the interested government must then
contact their present employer, conduct
background checks and assess firsthand
the job they have done.
To attract the very best person to lead
Luzerne County, voters must elect the
very best to county council. Choose
serious adults who are determined to
improve the future of Northeastern
Pennsylvania and independent enough to
carefully define the word finalist.
Thus far, five county council candi-
dates favoring a truly professional search
are Jim Bobeck, Edward Brominski,
Michael Cabell, Gene Kelleher and John
Ruckno.
Remember their names.

FUROR OVER the
news of the despic-
able phone-hacking
incidents at Rupert
Murdochs News of
the World, in Great
Britain, is likely to
carry over to suspi-
cions by the public all over the world
that journalists lie, cheat, take payoffs,
make payoffs and slant news coverage
to create headlines and sell newspa-
pers.
Say it aint so, Joe, to borrow the
baseball lament about Shoeless Joe
Jacksons involvement in the Black
Sox scandal in 1919.
It aint so.
Every profession has its rogues,
some likable and some despicable.
Those in charge of Murdochs paper
and at the highest level of his compa-
ny are ultimately responsible for repre-
hensible behavior such as this.
The chief executive of Murdochs
News International and former editor
of News of the World, Rebekah
Brooks, resigned on Friday, and Mur-
doch issued an apology. Both actions
were abrupt departures from Mur-
dochs stance all week long: that the
papers transgressions of moral and
ethical behavior had been minor. Later
in the day, Les Hinton, publisher of
The Wall Street Journal and chairman
of Dow Jones, resigned. Hinton had
preceded Brooks as head of News
International and had the job when
the hacking took place.
We are sorry for the serious wrong-
doing that occurred. We are deeply
sorry for the hurt suffered by the indi-
viduals affected. We regret not acting
faster to sort things out, Murdoch
said.
His statement will be in Britains
newspapers in ads today.
He also said he would take further
concrete steps to resolve these issues
and make amends for the damage they
have caused.
While the apology was better late
than never, it came too late to salvage
Murdochs credibility and reputation.
Before this happened it would have
been possible to argue, love him or
hate him, that he has had a notable
career taking risks, confronting
controversy and building and retool-
ing media businesses that many have
abandoned as dead.
Thats all changed.
At this point, it is difficult to know
what he knew and when he knew it
regarding the shoddy practices of his
reporters and editors, but one thing is
certain. A chief executive of any com-
pany sets the tone, and whether or not
he knows all the details of actions by
his companys employees day in and
day out is inconsequential. The exec-
utive has to take ultimate responsib-
ility for the actions of those in the
company.
Murdoch set a tone that made ac-
tions such as those at the News of the
World acceptable.
Early in my career in media and
journalism, I had the good fortune to
work for two men who ran a publicly
held company of newspapers and
radio and television stations. The
business grew to become a Fortune
500 company and left a legacy as one
of the most successful media compa-
nies ever. Ultimately, it was sold to
Disney and broken up into smaller
units, many of which were sold.
The company was noted for its
decentralized management style. If
you were the chief operating officer of
any of the newspapers or broadcast
units you made virtually all decisions
locally. There was no set of rules or a
book describing acceptable journalism
or business practices. You took your
lead from the top two men, who led by
example.
Those who succeeded best had an
intuition about how to behave based
on the good example of ethical and
moral behavior of the companys top
leaders.
They set the tone and were able to
do it subtly but forcefully.
Murdoch did not do that. His repu-
tation and most likely his conscience
will pay a heavy price.

WHEN DONALD Rums-
feld was Secretary of De-
fense, he coined some
phrases about knowledge
that apply far beyond mil-
itary matters.
Secretary Rumsfeld
pointed out that there are some things that
we know that we know. He called those
known knowns. We might, for example,
know how many aircraft carriers some
other country has. We might also know that
they have troops and tanks, without know-
ing how many. In Rumsfelds phrase, that
would be an unknown known a gap in
our knowledge that we at least know exists.
Finally, there are things we dont even
know exist, much less anything about them.
These are unknown unknowns and they
are the most dangerous. We had no clue, for
example, when dawn broke on Sept. 11,
2001, that somebody was going to fly two
commercial airliners into the World Trade
Center that day.
There are similar kinds of gaps in our
knowledge in the economy. Unfortunately,
our government creates uncertainties that
can paralyze the economy, especially when
these uncertainties take the form of un-
known unknowns.
The short-run quick fixes that seem so
attractive to so many politicians create
many unknowns that make investors reluc-
tant to invest and employers reluctant to
employ. Politicians might look only as far
ahead as the next election, but investors
have to look ahead for as many years as it
will take for their investments to start
bringing in some money.
The net result is that both our financial
institutions and our businesses have had
record amounts of cash sitting idle while
millions of people cant find jobs. Ordinarily
these institutions make money by investing
money and hiring workers. Why not now?
Because numerous and unpredictable
government interventions create many
unknowns, including unknown un-
knowns.
The quick fix that got both Democrats
and Republicans off the hook with a tempo-
rary bipartisan tax compromise, several
months ago, leaves investors uncertain as to
what the tax rate will be when any money
they invest today starts bringing in a return
in another two or three or 10 years. It is
known that there will be taxes, but nobody
knows what the tax rate will be then.
Some investors can send their investment
money to foreign countries, where the tax
rate is already known, is often lower than
the tax rate in the United States and per-
haps even more important is not some
temporary, quick-fix compromise that is
going to expire before their investments
start earning a return.
Since 2009, according to the Wall Street
Journal, the U.S. has lost more than $200
billion in investment capital.
President Obamas rhetoric deplores such
outsourcing, but his administrations
policies make outsourcing an ever more
attractive alternative to investing in the
United States and creating American jobs.
Blithely piling onto American businesses
both known costs such as more taxes and
unknowable costs such as the massive
ObamaCare mandates that are still evolv-
ing provides more incentives for investors
to send their money elsewhere to escape
the hassles.
Such anti-business policies would just be
business problem, except that it is busi-
nesses that create jobs.
The biggest losers from creating an ad-
verse business climate might not be busi-
nesses themselves especially not big busi-
nesses, which can readily invest more of
their money overseas. The biggest losers
are likely to be working people in America,
who cannot just relocate to Europe or Asia
to take the jobs created there by American
multinational corporations.

T H O M A S S O W E L L
The short-run quick fixes that seem so
attractive to so many politicians create
many unknowns that make investors
reluctant to invest and employers
reluctant to employ.
ANYTIME a VIP gets caught
with his (or her) pants down
Arnold Schwarzenegger or
Anthony Weiner, for exam-
ple you can almost hear
the collective huh? around
the nations water coolers, on
its Twitter feeds and shared over its backyard
fences.
What in the heck were those guys thinking?
Where were they when John Edwards, Eliot
Spitzer, Bill Clinton and so many others
crashed and burned? Why wasnt the very real
risk of shame and humiliation enough to stop
them cold?
More than 2,000 years ago Socrates as-
serted in Platos Phaedrus that two horses
contend for our souls one, unruly, passionate
and constantly pulling in the direction of
pleasure, and the other restrained, dutiful,
obedient and governed by a sense of shame.
But a set of studies I conducted with two
other researchers at the University of South-
ern California Marshall School of Business
suggests that Socrates was wrong, at least
about Horse No. 2. Humans might be pulled
hard toward pleasure, but shame isnt the
countervailing force that reins us in.
In fact, the more we anticipate wagging
fingers, public pillory and guilt, the worse
were likely to do when it comes to self-con-
trol. If we focus on the pride that comes from
good behavior, we make better choices. By far.
The proof is in the devils food. In one of our
studies, we put three groups of subjects alone
in a room with a very large piece of chocolate
cake, the utensils to devour it and water. We
told them they could eat as much or as little
cake as they wished. But first, the members of
one group were instructed to focus on the
pride they would feel if they resisted the cake.
Those in the second group were told to imag-
ine the shame they would feel if they ate it,
and the final (control) group was simply let
loose, with no instructions at all.
We discovered that the study subjects who
anticipated pride at resisting the cake con-
sumed far less than those who focused on the
shame of succumbing. They also ate less than
the control group.
What would make anticipating pride so
much better than anticipating shame in con-
trolling temptation? One reason is that pride
focuses attention on the self (not the cake)
and on success rather than failure. Shame, on
the other hand, emphasizes the opposite; it
focuses attention on the object of desire and
the act of succumbing, making resistance
harder to pull off. Simply put, anticipating
pride makes us feel good, and anticipating
shame makes us feel bad.
We know from prior research that were
better able to resist temptation when we feel
good, not bad. Our research also indicated
that not all bad feelings are equal when it
comes to undermining self-control. For exam-
ple, when we asked subjects to anticipate guilt
instead of shame, it made them eat more cake.
Guilt, it turns out, carries a triple whammy: It
concentrates thoughts on the temptation
rather than on self-control; it makes you gener-
ally feel bad, weakening resistance; and it
heightens the expected pleasure from being
bad, which makes the temptation more tempt-
ing.
Can any of these results prevent another
politician from a precipitous fall from grace?
Maybe if they work at it.
For those who want to resist chocolate cake,
it could mean pasting a picture of your slim-
mest self on the pantry door. For those of you
who made wedding vows, it could mean
fending off seduction by imagining your next
anniversary with the woman or man to whom
you promised everlasting fidelity.
My colleagues and I studied chocolate cake
consumption as a matter of business. What we
found could help groups such as insurance
companies or health care providers develop
strategies to encourage self-control when it
comes to smoking, drinking or getting the
proper amount of exercise. But the lessons
apply to anyone faced with temptation.
When tugged by temptation, lets focus on the positive

COMMENTARY
D E B O R A H M A C I N N I S
A
LTHOUGH A far cry
from beach reads,
the draft copies of
Luzerne Countys
proposedpersonnel andethics
policies available online this
month merit your attention.
Perceived by some people
as key to countering corrup-
tion and other chicanery in
county government, these
documents spell out expected
behaviors of public servants,
prohibited actions and penal-
ties for people who venture
over the line. Public comment
on the documents can be sub-
mitted until July 27.
Current county workers, as
well as anyone mulling future
county employment, might
want to (virtually) thumb
through the policies pages.
Ditto for owners of businesses
that regularly go after county
contracts, people who serve
on its boards and authorities,
as well as folks considering
candidacy for county offices.
Likewise, peruse these pol-
icies if youre adamant about
eliminating nepotism and cro-
nyismfromcounty affairs, and
if youre equally determinedto
start the countys new home
rule-style government next
year on solid footing. The
countys Home Rule Transi-
tion Committee soon will vote
on the suggested codes and
later confer them to the first
Luzerne County Council,
whose members will be decid-
ed in Novembers election. Its
up to those 11 council mem-
bers to adopt the policies in
2012 or to scrap them in favor
of something else.
Written rules of conduct, of
course, shouldnt be consid-
ered a cure-all for the kind of
corruption that historically
has plagued this place and
more recently led to a wide-
spread federal investigation
punctuated by the arrests and
convictions of a county com-
missioner and several other
key county figures. But the
codes can signal a change,
eliminate gray areas, establish
boundaries and set a tone for
future conduct.
Look at what the proposed
polices say about preferential
treatment for someone who
wants a county job or a promo-
tion. Look at restrictions they
place on county workers who
hold private employment that
hampers performance of the
county position or post. Look
at how they address the solic-
iting or acceptance of gifts.
Look carefully now or in
the years ahead, look out.

A
NUMBER OF the
decisions Gov. Tom
Corbett made in his
budget were unset-
tling, but among the more
egregious is a 9.3 percent cut
to child-care subsidies for the
poor.
It will force struggling par-
ents to choose between work
and welfare, ultimately in-
creasing the burden on tax-
payers.
Without reliable child care,
parents cant be very reliable
workers. Many will either quit
or lose their jobs, joining the
rolls of the unemployed, who
depend more heavily on the
states social-services net-
work, paid for by taxpayers.
Some affected parents ex-
pressed their frustrations to
an Inquirer reporter. You
want us to advance and get off
welfare, said Emily Edwards,
a laid-off receptionist and sin-
gle mother. Thenat the same
time, you cut the very pro-
grams that help us advance.
Its the dumbest thing I ever
heard. Ever.
A 2009 report by Philadel-
phia-based Public Citizens for
Children and Youth noted
that parents trying to get off
welfare are more likely to
showup for work on time and
have better attendance re-
cords if they have good child
care.
In Pennsylvania, child-care
subsidies help 70,234 chil-
dren, according to the Depart-
ment of Public Welfare.
Beyond helping adults get
into and stay in the work
force, decent day care benefits
children, too. They are more
likely tosucceedinschool and
less likely to get involved in
self-destructive behavior.
People understand cuts
have to be made. These are
still tough economic times in
the Rust Belt. But if the goal of
budget cuts is to give Pennsyl-
vania a government it can af-
ford, then why do something
that will increase the govern-
ment-dependent population?
Somehow, the governor
needs to restore the $17.6 mil-
lion he cut from child-care
subsidies.

F O R U M
PRESIDENT
Obama is
demanding a
big long-term
budget deal.
He wont sign
anything less,
he warns,
asking, If not now, when?
How about last December,
when he ignored his own debt
commissions recommenda-
tions? How about February,
when he presented a budget
that increases debt by $10 tril-
lion over the next decade? How
about April, when he sought a
debt-ceiling increase with zero
debt reduction attached?
All of a sudden hes a born-
again budget balancer prepared
to bravely take on his own party
by making deep cuts in entitle-
ments. Really? Name one. Hes
been saying forever that hes
prepared to discuss, engage,
converse about entitlement
cuts. But never once has he
publicly proposed a single
structural change to any entitle-
ment.
Hasnt the White House
leaked that hes prepared to
raise the Medicare age or
change the cost-of-living calcu-
lation?
Anonymous talk is cheap.
Leaks are designed to manip-
ulate. Offers are floated and
disappear.
Say it, Mr. President. Give us
one single structural change in
entitlements. In public.
As part of the pose as the
forward-looking grownup rising
above all the others who play
politics, Obama insists upon a
long-term deal. And what is
Obamas definition of long-
term? Surprise: An agreement
that gets him past Nov. 6, 2012.
Nothing could be more politi-
cal. Its like his Afghan surge
wind-down date. September
2012 has no relation to any
military reality on the ground.
It is designed solely to position
Obama favorably going into the
last weeks of his re-election
campaign.
Yet the Olympian above-the-
fray, no-politics-here pose is
succeeding. A pliant press swal-
lows the White House story
line: the great compromiser
(clearly exasperated, sympa-
thized a Washington Post news
story) being stymied by Repub-
lican intransigence (the noun
actually used in another front-
page Post news story to de-
scribe the Republican position
on taxes).
The meme having been es-
tablished, Republicans have
been neatly set up to take the
fall if a deal is not reached by
Aug. 2. Obama already is wav-
ing the red flag, warning omi-
nously that Social Security,
disabled veterans benefits,
critical medical research, food
inspection without which
agriculture shuts down are in
jeopardy.
The Republicans are being
totally outmaneuvered. The
House speaker appears disori-
ented. Its time to act. Time to
call Obamas bluff.
A long-term deal or nothing?
The Republican House should
immediately pass a short-term
debt-ceiling hike of $500 billion
containing $500 billion in bud-
get cuts. That would give us
about five months to work on
something larger.
The fat-cat tax breaks (those
corporate jets) that Obamas
talking points endlessly recycle?
Republicans should call for
urgent negotiations on tax
reform along the lines of Simp-
son-Bowles that, in one option,
strips out annually $1.1 trillion
of deductions, credits and loop-
holes while lowering tax rates
across the board to a top rate of
23 percent. The president says
he wants tax reform, doesnt
he? Well, Mr. President, here
are five months to do so.
Will the Democratic Senate
or the Democratic president
refuse this offer and allow the
country to default with all the
cataclysmic consequences that
the Democrats have been warn-
ing about for months because
Obama insists on a deal that is
10 months and seven days long-
er?
Thats indefensible and trans-
parently self-serving. Dare the
president to make that case.
Dare him to veto or the Dem-
ocratic Senate to block a
short-term debt-limit increase.
This is certainly better than
the McConnell plan, which
would simply throw debt reduc-
tion back to the president. But
if the House cannot do Plan A,
McConnell is the fallback Plan
B.
You cannot govern this coun-

of a long-term, small-govern-

inherently unreachable without

it could very well wreck the

ANOTHER VIEW
A photograph by Don Carey and
words by Mark E. Jones
I BUILT one
model as a
kid. It wasnt
a boat. It
wasnt a car. It
was a space-
ship.
In those
days, nothing could fascinate
a boy like a long, tall rocket.
Mine was the Apollo 11, with
its huge thrusters at the bot-
tom and, at the top, the hid-
den lunar module the bug-
like vehicle that would land
on the moon.
I lined up all the pieces.
Used ample glue. It took
hours. At the very end, as the
instructions indicated, I
peeled back the American flag
decal and stuck it on the side.
I thought about that flag
and that model on a recent
weekend, as the space shuttle
Atlantis, after three decades
and more than 130 shuttle
flights, made its final launch.
After this, the U.S. space pro-
gram will sit on the bench for
a while, giving way to private
industry or impossible as
this might sound sharing
rides with the Russians.
Does it bother me? shut-
tle commander Christopher
Ferguson told CBS. I think
the transition could have
taken place more gradually. ...
I do think we are kind of
hanging it out a little bit. But
... we have our Russian part-
ners. Theyll get us up and
down. Were paying custom-
ers.
Paying customers?
Well, yes. As with so many
other things the government
once did, our space program
is moving more to the private
sector. You can buy a trip to
the stars now. Richard Bran-
son, the British billionaire
behind Virgin Atlantic Air-
lines, has formed Virgin Ga-
lactic, which will charge
$200,000 a seat to shoot into
the heavens and experience
weightlessness.
Or you can pay the Rus-
sians. Thats what our govern-
ment is doing. Instead of
launching a rocket from Flor-
ida, well pay about $60 mil-
lion a seat for our astronauts
to hitch a ride to the Interna-
tional Space Station aboard
and I am not making this up
the Russian Soyuz.
Do we have to sit in back
with the dog?
President George W. Bush
put the first nail in the space
shuttle coffin; President Ba-
rack Obama hammered in
another deciding Bushs
proposed alternative to the
shuttle, the Constellation
moon program, was too ex-
pensive. Obama has suggest-
ed a flexible path approach
which, when you listen to it,
sounds flexible enough to
include going nowhere for a
long time.
In short, for space fans, the
funs over for a while.
Does this sadden you? It
does me. Im not saying every
dollar we spent over the years
with NASA was a great in-
vestment. But to see an Amer-
ican dream go the way of the
highest bidder is depressing. I
know private industry often
does things more efficiently
than government, but it also
does them for one reason:
profit. If there were enough
money in a disco on Mars,
youd see that on the surface
before a research station.
There was once a national
pride in how far we Amer-
icans could go in space. We
are the best dreamers on the
planet, and the Gemini and
Apollo programs reflected
that. Over the years, the cries
of take care of life down
here! grew louder. We be-
came jaded toward space, as
movies and video games
made it seem like something
we could go to anytime, in
HD.
But computer graphics are
one thing. Launching a real
rocket hundreds of miles into
the sky is something else. Its
OK for a nation to take pride
in that and yes, to fund it, the
way governments once fund-
ed the exploration of this
planet Ferdinand Magellan,
Christopher Columbus, etc.
Instead, an American kid
today can build a model rock-
et and then proudly stick a
Virgin decal on the side. Or a
Russian flag. The common
phrase is reach for the stars.
But with the end of the space
shuttle, its more like hail a
cab.
For space fans, final frontier will have to wait

Im not saying every dollar we
spent over the years with NASA
was a great investment. But to
see an American dream go the
way of the highest bidder is
depressing.
GREECE IS having a
fire sale of its publi-
cly owned trans-
portation system,
with planes, trains
and roads all being
sold off as the coun-
try attempts to dig
out of its debt crisis. Americans
should watch and learn: We could
well be privatizing large segments of
our own transportation system soon
because of the U.S. debt crisis.
U.S. Rep. John L. Mica, R-Fla.,
chairman of the House Transporta-
tion and Infrastructure Committee,
introduced a bill earlier this month
that would slash transportation
spending, limiting it to the amount
brought in by federal gas tax reve-
nues and other existing highway fees.
That roughly translates into federal
spending of $215 billion to $230 bil-
lion over six years for highway and
transit projects about half of what
the Obama administration sought
last year.
The draconian spending proposal,
dubbed the Republican road to ruin
by critics, comes at a time when
groups such as the American Society
of Civil Engineers are saying that the
United States needs to invest an
additional $1 trillion beyond current
levels over the next decade just to
maintain and repair existing infras-
tructure.
We are facing a road infrastructure
crisis, and it is of our own making.
The federal gas tax has been un-
changed, at 18 cents, since 1993, even
as vehicles have gotten more fuel
efficient. Adjusted for inflation, it
amounts to a measly 12 cents today.
But Americans, according to sur-
veys, dont want to raise the tax.
For politicians such as Mica, this
opens doors to privatization projects.
Last month, he introduced a bill that
would put private companies in
charge of Amtraks operations in the
Northeast Corridor. Taking that step,
he contended, would be the fastest
way to get high-speed rail up and
running in the United States, because
its clear that President Obamas
federally sponsored rail plan has
little support in Congress.
Maybe Mica is right. But rushing
to privatize state-owned assets can
lead to terrible infrastructure deals
that let private companies walk away
with prime assets and leave tax-
payers with no guarantee of better
services or lower fees.
Unlike the Greeks, who must sell
to receive bailout funds, we still have
a say in our infrastructure future. But
the time for planning ahead and
striking strong deals is dwindling,
along with our infrastructure funds.
Many European countries and
cities have privatized infrastructure
and city services. You want to use the
highway you pay. You want to stroll
through a public garden you pay.
You can avoid higher taxes, but if you
want the services, you pay the pri-
vate company that holds the fran-
chise. It is a system that works fine
for those with cash to spend.
Scaling down public ownership of
transportation networks also means
carefully selecting which parts of the
system to sell or lease out. Private
companies usually desire assets asso-
ciated with the most demand for
services, such as the Northeast Corri-
dor. But if we sell off or lease these
assets to get private companies to
build a high-speed rail system there,
we might also be giving up the only
part of a high-speed rail network
likely to generate enough cash in the
long term to keep a national system
running without taxpayer help.
So far, privately run transportation
projects show mixed outcomes. For
every successful privatization story
of service improvement and mount-
ing profits Britains airport priv-
atization, say theres a disaster
story of poor service and taxpayers
left holding the bailout bag: think the
Chunnel or Chicagos privatized park-
ing woes. Privatized transportation
projects carry risks for both sides.
So long as Americans refuse to
even index gas taxes to inflation, let
alone raise the tax outright, we wont
be spending enough to maintain our
transportation infrastructure, which
means that its value will continue to
fall. That will make it difficult to
attract private investment or get a
fair price for state-owned assets if
the government opts to privatize its
transportation assets. Too many
more years of disinvestment and we
will have to make gun-to-the-head
decisions like Greeces, shock our-
selves with big tax increases later, or
both.
Without new revenue sources, the
long-term problems for U.S. infras-
tructure finance are going to contin-
ue even if Congress manages a debt-
ceiling deal.
By contrast, if the United States
defaults on its debt, our bond ratings
will tumble. The higher costs of bond
financing would then raise infrastruc-
ture costs through the roof.
And those financing costs would
put government negotiators at even
more of a disadvantage in privatiza-
tion deals.
Averting default would give U.S.
leaders wiggle room to find public-
private partnerships that really do
serve the public interest. To do so,
they must choose to maintain both
Americas credibility and its existing
assets.
The U.S. should tread carefully along the road to privatizing its infrastructure

Should fracking halt until proven safe?
LOS AN-
GELES On
May 24, Envi-
ronmental
Protection
Agency Ad-
ministrator
Lisa Jackson
testified before Congress, say-
ing, I am not aware of any
proven case where the frack-
ing process itself has affected
water, although there are in-
vestigations ongoing.
It was a classic case of non-
denial denial by a federal agen-
cy enjoying observer status,
courtesy of a law assigning
natural gas drilling oversight to
the states.
Jackson wasnt saying there
have been no cases of ground-
water contamination from this
controversial new mining tech-
nology; she was just saying she
wasnt aware of a proven
one.
So why have New Jersey,
North Carolina and New York,
the cities of Buffalo and Pitts-
burgh, the Canadian province
of Quebec and all of France
banned or issued moratoriums
on fracking?
With fracking, or hydraulic
fracturing, a well is drilled
thousands of feet deep into
rock. Then millions of gallons
of water, mixed with sand and
toxic chemicals including
asbenzene, ethylbenzene, tolu-
ene, xylene and formaldehyde
are blasted into the shale, frac-
turing it and releasing the nat-
ural gas.
Suddenly, the inaccessible is
accessible, and the gas rush is
on with tens of thousands of
new wells popping up in Penn-
sylvania, Arkansas, Colorado,
Louisiana, Ohio, Michigan,
Texas, West Virginia, Utah and
Wyoming, and residents in
those states reaping lucrative
leases.
And why not? Natural gas
burns cleaner than oil or coal,
its cheaper than foreign oil and
it creates jobs. Thats what
industry is pitching, and its
what Lisa Jackson pitched to
Congress. And its probably
safer than nuclear energy.
Or is it?
When a well broke in Brad-
ford County, Pa., tens of thou-
sands of gallons of fracking
fluids leaked into the Susque-
hanna River, just like the 8,000
gallons that seeped into a creek
near Dimock, Pa.
Thousands of Texas residents
have had their water contam-
inated in the Barnett Shale
bonanza, along with water
wells in Pavilion, Wyo.
Its not just chemicals. Duke
University researchers found
elevated methane in 13 of 26
wells tested in Northeastern
Pennsylvania, to the point
where the water could catch
fire just like the Wyoming
sink water in the documentary
film Gasland.
The New York Times ob-
tained EPA documents reveal-
ing that wastewater from frack-
ing is often much more radio-
active than federal regulators
deem safe for treatment plants
to handle water that is even-
tually fed into rivers.
A 2009 ProPublica investiga-
tion found more than a thou-
sand reports of water contam-
ination.
No wonder New Jersey and
New York live in constant fear
that Pennsylvanias fracking
boom will contaminate the
Delaware River, from which all
three states draw drinking
water.
Then there
was the dra-
matic drop in
the number
and intensity
of earthquakes in central Arkan-
sas when fracking was halted,
as well as the dramatic increase
in air pollution in otherwise
pristine northeastern Utah and
southwestern Wyoming since
fracking began.
So what needs to be done
about fracking?
At the very least, whats
needed is a moratorium on the
helter-skelter drilling of new
fracking wells until the process
is proved safe or made safe.
Preliminary results of an EPA
study are due in a
couple of years.
Until then, all
Americans should
be aware that
fracking is another
genie that once
unleashed can-
not be forced
back into
the bottle.

EPA has been derelict in its duty
TUSCALOO-
SA, Ala. Nat-
ural gas is a key
part of Amer-
icas energy
supply, provid-
ing nearly a
quarter of our
total energy needs. That includes
a third of the energy used by
industry, homes and businesses
and nearly 30 percent of the
electricity we generate.
Natural gas is clean and cheap
compared to other forms of ener-
gy. Over the last few years, U.S.
and world natural gas reserves
have soared U.S. reserves are up
by over a third as weve discov-
ered how to apply the technique
known as fracking to unleash
gas trapped in deep underground
shale formations.
Fracking involves pumping a
mixture of water, sand and chem-
icals under pressure into under-
ground formations, releasing the
gas trapped there. Some of the
material pumped in returns to the
surface; some remains under-
ground where it props open the
fractures created in the formation.
The technique has been in use
in the United States since the
1940s and it has been used
around the world for decades in
both oil and gas production.
What is new is its effectiveness as
methods are refined and the
extent of the areas where it can
be used cost effectively.
This has revolu-
tionized the Unit-
ed States energy
picture. Shale gas
made up
only 1 percent of our gas supply
in 2000; today it represents 25
percent.
In the early 2000s, plans were
under way to build liquefied
natural gas terminals to import
natural gas from the Middle East.
Today we are retrofitting our
ports to allow us to export it.
Natural gas prices have fallen to a
quarter of their 2000 price, in
large part as a result of this dra-
matic increase in supply.
As we discover new shale
formations with recoverable gas,
we face some difficult technical
and legal issues. The liquid resid-
ue can pose risks to ground wa-
ter, and pumping pressurized
liquid into the ground can affect
neighbors properties.
However, thus far frackings
dangers are mostly theoretical.
Earlier this year Environmental
Protection Agency Administrator
Lisa Jackson certainly no friend
to the hydrocarbon energy indus-
try told Congress that there had
been no proven cases where the
fracking process itself has affect-
ed water.
We have in place a national
regulatory system to protect
groundwater and well-developed
principles of property law that
protect neighbors, she testified.
We dont need more rules, just
consistent application of those we
have already.
Indeed, all forms of energy
production involve side effects.
Consider these exam-
ples:
Wind
and solar
energy
produc-
tion require extensive use of rare
earth minerals. Almost all of
these minerals are imported from
China where their production
often triggers environmental
disasters. The British Daily Mails
investigation into rare earth pro-
duction for renewable energy
earlier this year quoted Green-
peace China as saying, Theres
not one step of the rare earth
mining process that is not disas-
trous for the environment.
Ethanol poses serious threats
to water in the Midwest, both
from its water-intensive produc-
tion draining aquifers faster than
they recharge and from ground-
water pollution from increased
fertilizer use in growing corn.
Nuclear plants require dis-
posal of long-term radioactive
wastes. Coal plants emit both
conventional pollutants and
greenhouse gases, while mining
risks lives and the environment.
Unless we are willing to drasti-
cally reduce our energy use and
so diminish our access to energy-
intensive goods such as pharma-
ceuticals and computers we
cannot reject every advance in
energy production.
And unlike renewable energy
firms such as General Electric
and Archers Daniels Midland, the
natural gas industry doesnt have
its hand out asking for subsidies.
Making sure we do not shut
down development of our natural
gas reserves with ill-considered
regulatory measures is critical to
our energy future.

Writer: New bill
threatens wildlife
I
have seen in the news that
the U.S. House Appropri-
ations Committee has re-
leased a proposed environ-
mental spending bill, offering
less protection for our wildlife
that is at risk of extinction.
This is not acceptable!

from happening.
Lets make our voices heard;
we need to protect nature.
End of story.
Susan Albert
Wyoming
Council candidate
seeks openness
T
here appears to be a major-
ity on the Luzerne County
Home Rule Transition
Committee that favors not
releasing the names of the
candidates who apply for the
county manager position.
Some of the objectives, I
believe, of this committee
were to support transparency
and recommend the most
qualified manager applicant to
the incoming elected council
members.
There is a strong belief
among some committee mem-
bers that releasing the names
of applicants to the public will
reduce the number of strong
potential applicants. However,
we are missing an important
fact: We are looking for the
most qualified applicant, not a
persons name. The transition
committee will be getting the
county manager applications
to compare to the job descrip-
tion, after Mr. Ken Mohr of
Mohr Management Resources
eliminates the substandard
applications. Also, he will
remove the names from the
rsums before passing them
on to the transition commit-
tee.
These nameless rsums
should be released to the
public and press for review.
Before the final decision is
made on the most qualified
applicants, their names should
be released to the public and
press for comments. This may
restore public trust.
In summary, I support trans-
parency and the best interests
of the residents of Luzerne
County.

O
n June 26, The Times
Leader published a letter
to the editor regarding the
Home Rule Transition Com-
mittees meetings.
I realize that what takes
place and is discussed at these
meetings is of great impor-
tance; I question who should
be answering questions for the
public. I really dont care who
is asking, but rather who is
answering.
The letters author goes on
to state that if you are not
satisfied with the answer, to
contact her.
There is no need for anyone
to tell the people if you have
a question, ask me or email
me, and Ill let you know if its
OK or on the up and up. If
the people have a question,
just go on the countys home
rule website, ask your ques-
tion and you will receive a
timely response one that you
know comes from someone
with the knowledge and the
authority to dispense this
information.
As a candidate, I as with
others who are running can
give you only my opinion.
Until in office, my thoughts
are just that: my thoughts.
Until Election Day, ask
questions; on Nov. 8, remem-
ber to vote. Cast an informed
vote for the person of your
choice.
One last thing: Let me tell
you that there already are
teams/groups trying to stage
a control bloc. You can take
that to the bank. And I, for
one, will not be a part of these
groups.

Mailmen deserve
decent pensions
R
ecently there was a com-
mentary in The Times
Leader concerning the
U.S. Postal Service, its em-
ployees pensions and its pos-
sible demise.
I retired as a letter carrier
with 33 years of service.
Being a mailman involves
working part time for seven
years until becoming a regu-
lar with a 40-hour work
week. Try working a six- to
eight-hour work week or being
called in for only one-hours
work. Also, try carrying mail
through neighborhoods with
running sewage, floods, fire-
storms, perilous ice storms,
frigid temps and the possibil-
ity of dog bites.
I worked minimum-wage
jobs for another 10 years with
no hospitalization, paid vaca-
tion or sick days. President
Reagan signed the Windfall
Provision Act that decreased
my Social Security pension to
$65 a month in 2005. Then,
upon reaching 65 years old to
collect Medicare, my Social
Security check of $79.20 is
hereby garnished, and Medi-
care wants another $434.40.
As a mailman, I helped
customers in their times of
dire need. Dont you think I
truly deserved to get a good
pension after putting in so
many dedicated years?

Lets brainstorm
on social services
T
he recent passage of the
state budget for fiscal year
2011-12 raises many ques-
tions about the future ability
to support human services
across this region.
It points to the need to be
creative and innovative with
respect to meeting the needs
and challenges facing disad-
vantaged families. It is even a
problem facing middle-income
families that see sharp in-
creases in higher educational
costs and much more.
There are serious issues
ahead that must be addressed
not only by our elected repre-
sentatives, but also by the
ingenuity of every citizen.
Here are some ideas.
Many school districts in
the country have established
separate nonprofit corpora-
tions that can help arrange
funding opportunities beyond
the traditional property tax.
In fact, the property tax is
no longer an instrument that
can be trusted to be fair and
equitable, and other ways
should be found to raise the
money needed to support
basic education. Every school
district in Luzerne County
and nearby counties should
consider whether a separate
nonprofit corporation would
be beneficial to its future.
The tie-in to human ser-
vices relates to the ability of a
school district to not only
educate the child, but also to
provide information about the
responsibilities of their stu-
dents in post-educational life.
A planned-giving program
that highlights the needs of
human service agencies could
and should be organized
across Luzerne County and
the Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia region as a method to
secure longer-term funding for
the benefit of families and
individuals in need. While
some of this technique does
exist, much more could be
done, especially through
groups such as The Luzerne
Foundation and the Scranton
Area Foundation. In other
words, the scale and scope of
planned giving should be
vastly expanded.
Local and county govern-
ments should consider oppor-
tunities for separate nonprofit
corporations, much like the
foundation that was organized
years ago by the Luzerne
County Community College.
This region has much
talent that helps organizations
in fundraising events. There
might be a useful step in pool-
ing these professional and
volunteer resources to focus
on those in the greatest need,
so that human services can be
directed to the greatest needs
across whatever geography
makes sense.
The existing programs of
service, either provided by
government and/or a nonprof-
it corporation, need to be
protected if the people of
Luzerne County and adjoining
counties are to be served and
supported the way these pro-
grams were intended. To en-
sure this, there needs to be a
fully developed social service
plan for several counties so
that an interchange can occur
between and among entities
that have been designed to
enhance the delivery of hu-
man services.
These are but a few suggest-
ions that can be considered in
coming months as greater
attention is placed on ways to
secure a better life for those in
greatest need.

dollars in federal funds that

Now that the budget is
done, how did they do? Un-
fortunately, not well.
Im giving this budget a D.
It prioritizes spending re-
ductions regardless of conse-
quences a priority that few
Pennsylvanians share. The
budget cuts the number of
teachers in the classroom,
raises college tuition and
increases local property taxes.
Thousands of jobs will be lost,
and more costs will be shifted
to middle-class families.
It didnt have to be this way.
The budget left most of a $786
million revenue surplus untou-
ched and spared natural gas
drillers from paying a tax in
this state that they pay every-
where else.
While funding is cut for
many services, lawmakers
miss opportunities to enact
smart cost-savings measures.
No efforts were made to slow
growth in the state prison
population and nursing home
utilization two of the states
most expensive budget items.
Lawmakers could have used
this budget to help stabilize
the economy as we transition
from recession to recovery.
Instead, they might very well
have made things worse.

by Medicare, a physician and
nurse must complete 15 steps
during a 30- to 45-minute ex-
am, including brief screenings
for dementia and depression,
an eye exam, a medical histo-
ry and personalized health ad-
vice. They must also check
weight, height and blood pres-
sure the only time the pa-
tient must be touched.
Although much touted in
letters to the 46
million aged or
disabled people
on Medicare, the
wellness visits
havent caught
fire with patients
either. Since Jan.
1, about 780,000
patients have re-
ceived the new
service, Medicare
officials say.
Last month,
federal officials
announced a na-
tionwide cam-
paign among doc-
tors, patients and
families of those
on Medicare to increase
awareness of the benefits un-
der the new law. In addition to
the free preventive visits, they
include some free cancer
screenings, immunizations
and other tests and counsel-
ing.
Since 2005, Medicare has
offered a separate and free
Welcome to Medicare doc-
tor visit for the 2 million new
enrollees during their first
year.
A beneficiarys first free
wellness screening must come
at least a year after the wel-
come visit, and subsequent
screenings must be at least a
year apart.
Several doctors in local clin-
ics have chafed at the restric-
tions. If doctors want to go be-
yond the Medicare agenda
order tests or prescribe medi-
cation, for instance they
must either ask the patient to
return for a separate visit or
split the bill between Medi-
care and the patient.
That can be confusing for
patients who think Medicare
is paying for a comprehensive
visit, said Suzanne Werner,
manager at Allina Medical
Specialties Clinic in St. Paul.
The doctor wants to treat the
patient as an individual, with
tests and treat-
ment geared to
that person, she
said. Sometimes
thats hard to do.
Medicare offi-
cials say doctors
misunderstand
the value of the
screening tool
and say there is
no plan to change
the process.
The elements
of this visit are
defined by statute
and are meant to
(focus) on pre-
vention, said
spokesman Do-
nald McLeod. The visit has
been misperceived by a num-
ber of people due to the fact
that Medicare has traditional-
ly been focused on diagnosis
and treatment of disease rath-
er than its prevention.
The American Medical As-
sociation agrees the wellness
visits can help, though it
would like more flexibility.
Some doctors say mastering
the somewhat clunky regu-
lations is worthwhile.
Its helping me do a good
job of screening for health and
safety issues, said Dr. Rod
Christensen, a family practice
physician in Northfield and
chief medical officer for Alli-
nas 45 clinics.

The wellness

as one of the
signature benefits of
the big federal health
overhaul that
Congress passed last
year an effort to
catch problems early,

healthier and
cut future
Medicare costs.
conversations with dozens of ex-
perts and reviews of available da-
ta show that obstacles on the
road to graduation have gotten
only greater in the two years
since then. Few believe the 2020
target will be met.
The outlookis not good, says
Michael Lovenheim, an assistant
professor of policy analysis and
management at Cornell Universi-
ty and co-author of a 2010 study
that found students are taking
more, not less, time to graduate
thanks to such things as contin-
ued deep cuts in public higher
education budgets and services,
enrollment increases and steep
hikes in tuition that are forcing
more students to work.
The study by Lovenheim and
his colleagues upended the com-
mon contention by universities
that graduation rates are falling
because students are arriving un-
prepared. American high school
graduates are, in fact, better pre-
pared than ever, it found, but
most go to unselective communi-
ty colleges and public universi-
ties where budgets and services
have been deeply cut, classes are
large, and per-student expendi-
tures are low.
Many of these students, like
Boyd, have toworktopay quickly
rising tuition costs, making it
harder to get through school.
Boyd sleeps three hours a night
four, if hes lucky.
After five years, you get used
to it, he says.
Lovenheim and his colleagues
found that the longer it takes stu-
dents to finish their degrees, the
more likely theyll drop out.
Thats one of several factors
that have historically conspired
topushdowngraduationrates
and that have gotten worse, not
better, in the two years since the
president announced his goal.
First, the$12billionObamaini-
tially promised to community
colleges a linchpin of his strat-
egy, which he called on to in-
crease their number of graduates
by 50percent was siphonedoff
tohelpget thecontentious health
care bill passed. As a compro-
mise, $2 billion was pledged for
career training through a pro-
gram administered by the U.S.
Department of Labor.
But it took until January of this
year for the first $500 million to
be made available it wont ac-
tually be awardedto schools with
winning career-training propos-
als until the end of September
andthe rest is inthe sights of con-
gressional budget-cutters.
The money didnt happen,
says Jim Jacobs, who, as presi-
dent of Macomb, welcomed Oba-
ma to the stage for his announce-
ment on July14, 2009. He gave a
great speechandtheprogramhas
now been reduced from $12 bil-
lion to $2 billion in $500 million
chunks.

These days, movie producer Eu-
gene Musso rubs shoulders with the
likes of Woody Harrelson, Susan Sa-
randon, Bette Midler, Val Kilmer,
Danny DeVito and Jon Hamm. But
growing up on South Webster Ave-
nue in Scranton, he was as far re-
moved from a stereotypical film
geek as you could get.
I went to the
movies, but it
wasnt like I had to

recalls. I went
when I could af-
ford to go. I was
more of a working
guy.
One of seven

toiling at three
jobs to pay for
college and help
put gas in the
family car. He
workedat a cloth-
ing store, deliver-
ed mail and
helped run a
nursery outside
Lake Wallenpau-
pack, where he
still keeps a
home.
In the winter,
I used to pray for
snow so I could
make money
shoveling it, he
recalls.
A talent for fi-
nance led Musso
to a career as an
accountant and,
subsequently, a
producer with

role on TVs Dynasty.) The trios

opened in theaters in spring and re-
cently turned up on Blu-Ray and
DVD.
A crime-infested drama in the tra-
dition of GoodFellas and Donnie
Brasco, thefilmfollows thetrue-life
adventures of Danny Greene
(Romes Ray Stevenson), a Cleve-
land troublemaker who, in the
1970s, rose up the ranks from union
organizer to mob enforcer, eventual-
ly turning the tables on a handful of
major crime figures (Christopher
Walken and part-time Scranton resi-
dent Paul Sorvino).
Along the way, the Mafia tried to
take Greene down with car bombs
and bullets but failed repeatedly,
making the Irish brute seem inde-
structible.
The movie documents such a
great piece of American history,
Musso says from his home in Fort
Lauderdale. The script just flowed,
and every character was fascinat-

HOROSCOPE
HOROSCOPE
ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Youll be speaking to a
diverse group. Keep it sim-
ple. Complexity only mud-
dles your message. Use
the terms that everyone is
likely to understand. Youll
be heard and respected.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
Youll be involved in nego-
tiations. At first, youll
be offered choices, all
of which seem to fit anoth-
er persons goals and
not your own. Much
depends on your ability to
come up with interesting
alternatives.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Right now, you consider
your own development to
be a do-it-yourself project.
You see no need to hire
someone to motivate you,
either, since you have
enough gumption for five
people.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
Arrogance is a cover-up
for fear. You can use this
knowledge to your advan-
tage. When someone is
being high-handed, take
this as a signal to shake
their tree. Then stand back
and see what falls out.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22).
Learning can be tricky, but
its nothing compared to
unlearning. Youll be try-
ing something for the first
time. Try to get the best
teacher around, and ask
plenty of questions.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22).
You take initiative and in
doing so prove to the oth-
ers around you that you
are courageous. The high
level of responsibility you
assume makes you more
powerful, and youll enjoy
the perks of that power
soon.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
You will be so blown away
by what someone says
that for a few moments
afterward, you will hardly
be able to think straight.
This kind of excitement
will keep you coming back
for more.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
There will be parts of your
social interaction that are
not so smooth. But that
wont be a big deal if it
happens in the middle of
a visit. The opening and
closing are what will be
remembered.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec.
21). Your parents phi-
losophy doesnt resonate
with you, and neither do
the philosophies of your
teachers or friends. Take
this as a sign that its time
to come up with your own
philosophy.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan.
19). Just because some-
thing is difficult doesnt
mean it wont happen. In
fact, it is precisely because
a task is difficult that you
will take it on and make it
happen.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb.
18). Youll be relaxed and
in control. Youll influence
others with your integrity.
You wont mean to do
this. It is just a function
of interacting with the
world in your own very
specific way.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Your life is full, and yet
you wouldnt mind some
new friends. Today you
have the confidence to
strike up a conversation
with an intriguing some-
one, and this will be the
start of an enjoyable
experience.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (July
17). Youll choose a new
personal focus, and as you
quickly advance toward
it, you will be extremely
happy with your choice.
August interests will be
forwarded through social
activities and coopera-
tive efforts. In November,
family relationships will
be promoted. An artistic
project brings pleasing
results to your domestic
scene. Cancer and Scorpio
people adore you. Your
lucky numbers are: 45, 4,
21, 42 and 11.

1. People started to walk out during
his speech. Unrattled, the speaker
commented, "thats what I like - a
moving standing ovation."
2. Here are the property guidelines:
pretty much anything that isnt
nailed down is mine. Anything I can
pry loose isnt nailed down.
3. The last creatures that were
allowed onto the deck of Noahs ark
were two hungry termites. Noah
seriously considered fumigation.
4. Theres another pesky sign telling
everybody, "Do not walk on the

things get posted to begin with?
DEAR ABBY
Woman frowns at
sisters plastic surgery
Dear Abby:
I dislike the
prevalence of
plastic sur-
gery and Bo-
tox in todays
society.
My sister Beth told
her son and daughter shed
gladly pay for new noses for
them. They were offended
because they are happy with
their looks.
Both of my sisters have
had plastic surgery. They
can afford it and thats their
business. But they make
it our business by publicly
congratulating each other on
how well they have aged.
What do you think about
this, Abby? Am I right?
Natural Woman
in California
Dear Natural Woman:
Plastic surgery has been a
blessing to many people
because it has lifted not only
drooping flesh but sagging
self-esteem. I see nothing
wrong with someone getting
a nose job if it will help the
person feel more confident.
Your sisters offer to pay for
her childrens rhinoplasty
may have had more to do
with her own insecurity than
either of her childrens.
Cosmetic surgery and
Botox are facts of life in
our society for those who
can afford it. I think whats
upsetting you is your sisters
dishonesty. When they
publicly congratulate each
other on how well they have
aged, theyre not only lying
to whoever overhears them
theyre also lying to
themselves.
Dear Abby: My daughter
and granddaughter are going
to be in a wedding scheduled
for the summer of 2012.
The bride keeps scheduling
bridesmaids luncheons and
has required her attendants
to go to many bridal expos
with her even though the
vendors have been booked.
I understand the bride
wants it to be a special
day, but its more than a year
away and my daughter is a
stay-at-home mother of two.
She asked me if she should
back out now or level with
the bride that some of her
requests are a little over
the top.
My daughter wants to sup-
port her friend, and doesnt
want her to think shes try-
ing to run the show. What do
I tell her?
Mother of the Bridesmaid
Dear Mother: Friends
should be able to level with
each other otherwise they
arent friends, they are
acquaintances.

To fall into your destiny at an
early age is a blessing.
Half a century later, Wilson, 67,
isanauthorandanactivist forcaus-
es ranging from AIDS awareness
andcancer researchtothe removal
of land mines from Third World
countries. Shes a doting grand-
mother, and she still considers her
music a blessing.
Local fansarelookingforwardto
hearingher singat 8p.m. Saturday
during an Under the Stars con-
cert at Misericordia University,
wheresomeof TheSupremes clas-
sic hits are sure to be on the play
list.
Their music makes you smile.
It makes you want to laugh. It tells
a story, Tina MacDowell, wife of
university president Michael A.
MacDowell, said last week as she
helped arrange some of Wilsons
vintage gowns in the universitys
Pauly Friedman Art Gallery.
About 50 glamorous outfits pre-
viouslywornbyWilsonandher fel-
lowSupremes will be on exhibit in
the gallery throughOct. 17. Wilson
herself will attend an opening re-
ception on Friday evening, along
with Maxine Powell, who helped
up-and-coming Motown stars of
the past develop a finishing-school
sense of style and refinement.
She likes to call herself a moti-
vator, Wilson said. She would
say, Im not an etiquette teacher.
You girls are diamonds in the
rough, and Ill polish you.
Nowadays, Wilson uses some of
her polish and, of course, her mu-
sic, to bring attention to causes
dear to her heart.
Some areas spark a passion in
you, she said. I love children, so
most of the causes have to do with
children. Ive been to lots of vil-
lages in Laos and Vietnam and Sri
Lanka and visited homes of fam-
ilies that cant farm on their farm-
landbecauseof unexplodedbombs
(land mines.) If there were in the
United States, wed have those
things taken care of right away.
A lifelong keeper of diaries, she
is the author of Dreamgirl: My
Life as a Supreme, Supreme
Faith: Someday Well Be Togeth-
er, andathirdbookthat combines
andupdates her first twomemoirs.
I really enjoy writing, said Wil-
son, who believes she might have
become a teacher if she hadnt be-
come a performer.
I went backtocollege andgrad-
uated in 2001, she said. I ended
up studying things like psychology
and art and literature, everything I
was always interested in.
Recent concerts have taken her
everywhere fromUkraine andRus-
siatoLas Vegas. Whenshes not on
the road, she enjoys spending time
withgrandchildrenwhoareages 6,
11 and12.
Theyre great, she said during
a recent conversation. I spent the
entire weekend with my girls. We
went tothemovies. Wewent toget
sushi. We went to ride on a merry-
go-round.
But time spent with Grandma is
not all fun and games.
Im also the kind of Grandma
that teaches themthe values. I see
so often out there, disrespect is
rampant. I spoke at my fifth-grade
grandsons graduation and talked
to themabout being more respect-
ful to their elders. I try to install
those old-fashioned ideas.

She is expected to attend
the opening reception along
with Maxine Powell, who has
been described as Motowns
first lady of class. As a mem-
ber of the record companys
artistic-development depart-
ment, Powell mentored The
Supremes, as well as Martha
and the Vandellas and some of
the male groups. She was part
of a team that taught the art-
ists poise, choreography and
vocal harmony.
After the reception, Wilson
will attend a question-and-an-
swer session in the Lemmond
Theater in Misericordias
Walsh Hall.
If you ask her about clothes,
she might tell you that before
she started wearing gowns de-
signed by Bob Mackie, Mi-
chael Travis and Pat Campa-
no, she wore much simpler
styles.
Diana (Ross) and I took
home economics. Our parents
knew how to sew, and we fol-
lowed Butterick patterns and
made a few of our own.
DRESSES
The Supremes, including Mary Wilson, were well-known for their
eye-catching attire.

The exhibit includes the story
of explorers sent around the
world by the U.S. Agriculture De-
partment in the late 1800s and
early 1900s to find seeds and
plants to cross-breed and help
American crops survive harsh cli-
mates. It also includes the push
for safeguards in the Pure Food
and Drug Act of 1906 and a letter
from Upton Sinclair to President
Theodore Roosevelt about the
meatpacking industry.
The Archives holds a broadcol-
lectionof posters showingthe im-
portance of food during wartime
as the government promoted vic-
tory gardens andrationingof sup-
plies.
KnowYour Onions, touts one
poster. Food is ammunition,
dont waste it.
Theexhibit includes morethan
100original documentsandimag-
es, as well as government videos.
There is an amusing look at
food marketing, including a com-
panys pitch for branding Vita-
min Donuts, and many antiquat-
ed nutrition guidelines, well be-
fore the recently retired food
guide pyramid and new My
Plate guide introduced by the
Obama administration.
A 1945 government poster in-
cludes butter and fortified mar-
garine as one of seven basic food
groups. The guide also called for
eating any other foods you
want.
Theconcernwasmalnutrition
andgettingenoughcalories,said
curator Alice Kamps, adding that
foodguides showthe evolutionof
our understanding of nutrition.
The very earliest guides didnt
emphasize fruits and vegetables
because vitamins hadnt been
identifiedor their importanceina
nutritious diet wasnt known.
Kamps said the time was right
for such an exhibit, with high in-
terest infoodandcookingontele-
vision and restaurants driven by
big names.
We thought we could really
add to the conversation the coun-
try is having, she said.
Celebrity Chef Jose Andres ad-
visedonthe project andhas creat-
ed a new restaurant near the Ar-
chives to accompany the exhibit.
America Eats Tavern, named for
the1930s Works Progress Admin-
istrationproject that documented
thenationsfoodtraditions, prom-
ises a modern interpretation of
traditional recipes. It opened as a
pop-up restaurant on July 4.
Andres often talks about the
powerof foodinforeignpolicy, na-
tional security and other realms.
All of us are part of that discus-
sion about food in America: chef
and fast-food executive, small
farmer and agribusiness, govern-
ment and citizen, Andres wrote
in a book that accompanies the
exhibit. And not just America:
What we do here has repercus-
sions around the world.
The exhibit is on viewin Wash-
ington until January.

B E S T S E L L E R S
movie made eight years ago. But just
as they were preparing to hire a direc-
tor, some of the storys real-life mob-
sters let it be known they wanted to
play themselves in the film.
Spooked by the prospect of dealing
with angry thugs, Musso and compa-
ny backed off. When the project came
back around, the dust had settled
and the real-life criminals were no
longer an issue.
We took Kill The Irishman froma
script to a rewritten script through to
principal photography, post-produc-
tion and distribution, Musso says.
We cover all facets of the film busi-
ness, from start to finish.
According to Rosenblatt, Musso is
primarily responsible for lining up fi-
nancing for the movies Code Enter-
tainment oversees. Gene is an active
producer who has great taste in mate-
rial and has an understanding of the fi-
nancial aspects of film production as
well, Rosenblatt notes via e-mail. He
is involved in evaluating potential pro-
jects and making decisions as to
whether they make sense financially.
Because most of the movies Musso
produces are shot on a tight budget,
its up to himto get the most bang for
the buck. Inthe case of the Cleveland-
set Kill The Irishman that meant
shooting the movie in Detroit, where
significant tax breaks helped the bot-
tom line.
Musso credits his years in Scranton
with giving him an understanding of
the value of money. I realized money
isnt easy to get, and you shouldnt
spend it easily, he says. When you
arent handed money, youre more
cautious with it.
After graduating from Scranton
Central High School in 1968, Musso
majored in accounting at the Univer-
sity of Scranton, where his father
worked in the foreign-languages de-
partment. An eight-year stint at the
prominent Philadelphia accounting
firm Haskins & Sells followed.
While working as a CPA, Musso be-
came friends with Rosenblatt and
Corley and opted to help them run a
number of production companies, in-
cludingArtists WritingFor Film, Nev-
erland Films and, eventually, Code
Entertainment.
Basically, Al andBart talkedme in-
to it, Musso says with a laugh. As I
listened to them, I agreed. I thought,
We can do this. Why not? Its inter-
esting and fun.
Mussos filmographyincludes high-
profile films Palmetto with Woody
Harrelson and Elisabeth Shue,
Drowning Mona with Danny DeVi-
to and Bette Midler, Noel with Pe-
nelope Cruz and Susan Sarandon and
YouKill Me withTea Leoni andBen
Kingsley.
Theyve all been hard to put to-
gether, he says. None of them has
been easy.
Musso doesnt play favorites with
his movies. I like them all, he says.
They all have a unique status. We
did have a great time making Drown-
ing Mona in Los Angeles. Danny De-
Vito is the best. What a great person!
Weve worked with Woody (Har-
relson) twice, and hes a very talented
guy. We got him for Palmetto right
after he shot The People Vs. Larry
Flynt and sold the movie to Castle
Rock before we even shot a frame of
film.
Since his parents died, Musso rare-
ly makes it back to Scranton, but he
does spend at least five weeks a year
at his second home in Lake Wallen-
paupack. The producer owns 30 acres
of land and two properties, including
a home his father bought inthe1940s.
Its beautiful up there, he says.
Its such a great place to relax.
Truth be told, the 59-year-old Mus-
so doesnt do much relaxing. Accord-
ing to the producer, getting movies
made in recession-battered Holly-
wood is a much tougher job that it
used to be.
But Musso is not complaining. I
get up, and Im running. Im a can-do
person, he says. Some people say,
You cant do this, you cant do that. I
feed off the excitement of doing
something and doing it right.

hile some of his fellowactors were busy writing memoirs, Gene Hackmanwas working
on his first solo novel. We know from movies like Unforgiven and Bite the Bullet
that the Oscar winner can ride a horse, but how well can he wrangle Western fiction?
Just fine, it turns out.
Payback at Morning Peak is a satisfying revenge tale that takes place in NewMexico, a place
Hackman called home long before he retired fromthe screen in 2004. He sets his story at a time
when the American Southwest was still a lively and, at times, lawless frontier.
Just shy of 18, Jubal Young is a good
boy schooledinliterature by aneducat-
ed mother and brought up on the land
by an honest, hardworking father.
When a dispute over their farm in the
shadow of Morning Peak turns violent
and Jubal loses all he loves, he tries to
put aside a yearning for immediate ret-
ribution and to seek justice instead.
Justice isnt easy to come by. Bad
men set their own rules, and most law-
men dont pay much attention to a
teenager. That puts Jubal in the mid-
dle, leaving him the difficult task of
pursuing a pack of killers without land-
ing himself injail or taking a bullet. His
internal challenge isnt to give in to
vengeance and cruelty, lest his parents
true legacy die with them.
Hackman has co-authored three his-
torical novels since 1999. Writing on
his own with Payback at Morning
Peak, he takes aim at a clear target:
telling a good story. He hits it, too, en-
gaging the reader with interesting
characters and a galloping plot with
few stumbles. There is more than a bit
of familiarity in the goings-on the
love interest is too predictable and
Jubals politeness can take the vigor
out of a scene.
In a sense, Hackmans Morning
Peak lies in Louis LAmour country, a
place where the conventions of the
Western novel are as welcome as a man
of honor and a pretty young lady. Rid-
ing a trail of his own making, Hackman
takes hold of the reins with confidence.

Bonnie Jo Campbells Ameri-
canSalvagewasoneof thestand-
out books of 2009 a collection
of 14 stories so sharp they made
you bleed. In one, a hunter hits a
teenage girl with his car on a fog-
gy morning roadside, then must
resist the urge to use her body
while they wait for anambulance
toarrive. Inanother, amanquick-
ly cycles through his options for
dealing with a meth-addicted
wife, onlytorealize, as if hedidnt
know it from the outset, that he
has no choice but to carry on.
These are brutal stories, set in
rural Michigan(Campbell livesin
Kalamazoo), infused with drugs
andeasyviolence, tracingtheline
between perseverance and de-
spair. Perhaps nowhere does the
collectioncutmoredeeplythanin
theopeningstory, TheTrespass-
er,inwhichamiddle-classfamily
discovers that its weekend cot-
tage has been used as a meth lab,
even as one of the intruders, a16-
year-old girl, slips out the back
door and makes her escape by
stealing a boat anddrifting away.
Asimilar sense of crisis impels
Campbells second novel, Once
Upon a River, which also deals
witha16-year-oldadrift onariver,
in the wake of tragedy. Actually,
the novel has its roots in another
American Salvage story, Fam-
ily Reunion, about a girl taking
apt revenge on the uncle who
abused her. That character is
namedMarylou; inOnceUpona
River, Campbell changes it to
Margo, but thegirl is thesame, as
is the essence of her journey
which is ostensibly to find the
motherwhoabandonedherbutis
really about putting some dis-
tancebetweenherself andherhis-
toryandfindingawaytonavigate
the world.
Yes, for Margo, the river is ref-
uge, especially after her revenge
attempt goeswrong. It isarefuge,
though, fraught with all sorts of
perils, both expected and unex-
pected, in which the very people
who help her also endanger her
andshemust retainafluidunder-
standingof whoandwheresheis.
Campbell makes this explicit
early in the novel, after Margo
ends up 30 miles upriver at a ca-
bin owned by a friend of her
grandfathers. This man, Brian,
has real concern for her, but that
doesnt stop him from sleeping
withher at theearliest opportuni-
ty, or leaving her exposed to the
lusts of other men.
Such lusts bubble throughout
Once Upon a River if not al-
ways onthesurfacethenadegree
ortwobelow. Margo, asCampbell
tells us, is beautiful, a precious
river princess, and men are
drawntoher. But itsnot just that,
its also the quality of life on the
river, where social niceties fall
awaybeforemoreelemental ways
of getting along. Sex is part of
Margos survival kit, and Camp-
bell coolly parses the girls own
desires, the compromises she is
willingtomake, herneedtofinda
place that is secure.

The No Frills Way To Travel
MIAMI Graffiti was once
considered a sign of urban decay,
the sort of thing that might keep
tourists away from a neighbor-
hood. Now, not only is it an ac-
cepted art form, but its also the
subject of a new tour in one of
Miamis trendiest neighbor-
hoods, Wynwood, where legal
outdoor murals by graffiti artists
cover the walls near art galleries
and restaurants.
The two-hour tour, which
takes place on Vespas, is offered
by a company calledRoamRides.
It starts with a 15-minute ride
fromMiami Beachover the Vene-
tian Causeway to the Wynwood
Arts District, considered the
mecca of Miamis emerging arts
scene, and includes four or five
stops to survey the areas best
graffiti. The tour ends with lunch
at a happening Wynwood restau-
rant.
Once considered a rough
neighborhood, Wynwood has be-
come a destination for artists
from all over the world. Art gal-
leries abound and events take
place here eachDecember as part
of the Art Basel Miami Beach art
fair. Wynwood is also now home
to one of the worlds largest in-
stallations of murals by multiple
graffiti artists.
Its gotten to be so pervasive,
and it really brightens up the
neighborhood, Kit Sullivan of
Roam Rides said.
Its so not what you would ex-
pect of Miami, said Jesse Bull,
aneconomics professor whotook
one of RoamRides recent graffiti
tours. The graffiti has kind of
added to that. It livens it up and
makes it fresh and artsy, and I
think thats a good thing.
Guides point out work by dif-
ferent local artists such as Ty-
poe and Tribe Called Phresh
aka TCP while explaining the
evolution of graffiti fromthe days
when artists plastered their
names on vacant buildings and
train cars as a way to gain street
cred.
These days, building owners
give permission to artists to
spray paint their designs, and
these legal pieces share the walls
of dozens of neighborhood art
galleries and chic restaurants.
Theyre easy to distinguish from
illegal graffiti, which is often
done fast, in secret and at night,
with a single color or very few
colors. The sanctionedmurals, in
contrast, allow artists to take
their time, use multiple colors
and work in-depth in large spaces
with elaborate details.
Its definitely a changing art
form, Sullivan said. Its gotten
to the point where a lot of these
guys dont even use their names
at all. They just have a certaindis-
tinctive style. You can recognize
it when you see it.
For example, artist Chor Boo-
gies signatureworkincludes geo-
metric elements and half-hidden
faces, as well as an eye.
Major paint companies are
even helping graffiti artists make
the transition to a legitimate art
form by donating spray paint.
Graffiti has beena badwordin
America for a long time. We are
trying to change that, said Jay-
son Moreira, co-owner of Monta-
na Colors North America, a spray
paint companybasedinSanFran-
cisco, which donated 8,000 cans
of spray paint used to create
many of the murals inMiami dur-
ing Art Basel. He even helped
paint a mural of Japanese girls on
the side of a two-story building
that was once an RC Cola Plant.
The world of graffiti has its
own lingo. Artists tag their
works with their names. A
throw up is a quick piece. A
bomb is usually illegal work
that is thrown up fast, often at
night, in a place thats difficult to
access. Slashing is when an art-
ist disrespectfully throws up
his names over a legal piece. Ale-
gally done mural or elaborate
work that took days or weeks to
complete is considered a mas-
terpiece.
Artists looking for a space to
paint legally here may seek help
fromPrimary Flight, anorganiza-
tionthat has brought hundreds of
artists tothe streets of Wynwood.
Alot of people dont go to mu-
seums or arent art collectors or
art-educated, Primary Flight
founder Books Bischof said. If
you can take the same exact im-
age froma street and put it in the
museum, it doesnt speakas loud-
ly as it wouldif it were illegally on
the street corner or in a gritty
part of the neighborhood.
Oscar Montes, 36, has been
painting since he was a young
teenager. Better known as Trek6,
the artist wantedtopay tribute to
his origins and the Puerto Rican
community that once made up
the Wynwood area, so he painted
a legal mural that included a co-
qui, the island frog named for the
ko-kee sound it makes at night.
Montes said he spent around
$2,000 of his ownmoney onpaint
as well as hours of his time un-
der Miamis hot sun creating
the mural.
Graffiti is changing, he said. A
purist would tell you its gotten
really soft, he said. When I
started, everything was illegal.
Therewas (a) serious graffiti task
force. Theyre less aggressive
now because so much of it is le-
git.
But whiletheartists areinvited
to do their work on buildings and
sometimes get donated materi-
als, for the most part they are not
paid. Some predict that may
change, and that the Miami graf-
fiti community may eventually
find fame and profit in their de-
signs, the way artists like Keith
Haring andJean-Michel Basquiat
did in New York several decades
ago.
That generation is going to
bring it to another level where
one day, said Erni Vales, who
runs a studio in the arts district,
its going to be like Pop Art.

SALE BY OWNER
BUY BUY ME ME
54 Penn Street
I am an older 3 bed-
room home with a
total upgrade. My
rooms are large and
airy, with oak floors
in the dining room.
My kitchen is mod-
ern with oak cabi-
nets, ceramic tile
backsplash, and a
built in table. My
laundry room is on
the first floor with a
powder room. My
master bath is
ceramic tile with
granite vanity and
walk in linen closet. I
have nice closets,
ceiling fans, and my
gas furnace works
great. My wrap
porch is lovely to
hang out on, and I
have a sweet side
yard that is fenced
with flowering bush-
es and hedges for
privacy. My full attic
has wood flooring,
my walls have been
repainted and some
have crown mold-
ing. I still have my
original stained
glass front window.
My neighbors are
Wyoming Valley
Mall, Home Depot,
and Holy Savior
Church. My owner
needs to move to a
smaller house, so I
am priced below
market. I am pretty
and clean and ready
to move into. Call
my owner and set
up a time to take a
look at me. $79,800
