THINGS
YOU NEED
TO KNOW
THIS WEEK
>> NIGHT OF THE NINJA: You survived Talk Like a
Pirate Day. You lived through National Jelly Doughnut Day.
Now, prepare yourself for the next wave of superfluous invented
holidays: Today is International Ninja Day. Its a day for you to
channel your inner ninja and show off whatever ninja skills
you possess. If that means hiding in a plant at the office and
leaping out and scaring co-workers, then go for it. Dont expect
to be thought normal, but go for it.
>> FOR YOUR VIEWING PLEASURE: Time was
when Christmas specials ran once a year, and watching the
annual showings of our favorites was an event. Now, thanks to
that wonderful invention we call cable TV, you can watch these
holiday shows over, and over, and over . and over again. Case
in point, A Charlie Brown Christmas airs tonight at 8 on ABC. It
will be back. The 1984 version of A Christmas Carol, starring
George C. Scott, is on AMC tonight at 8 AND10:30. Same thing
on Tuesday night. Same Scrooge time, same
Scrooge channel. And ABC Family will
feature The Year Without a Santa Claus
at 9 p.m. Thursday. And at 6 p.m. Friday.
And it too will be back before Dec. 25.
>> GAME TIME: Fans of the AFC North
will want to tune in to the NFL Network this
Thursday night at 8 to catch the Cleveland
Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers. The once bitter
rivalry has been predominantly one-sided in
recent years with Pittsburgh getting almost all
the wins. Although Cleveland did win in 2009, youd
have to go back to 2003 to find another Browns
victory. But, chin up, Cleveland fans. The Browns did
have the better of the rivalry in the 1950s.
>> SUGAR PLUMFAIRY TIME: Since 1892, Tchaikov-
skys Nutcracker Ballet has been a holiday performance loved
by millions worldwide. The Scranton Civic Ballet Company hasnt
been around THAT long, but it has been presenting the Christ-
mas classic for 25 years. And it will be doing it again this Friday
at 7:30 p.m. at the Scranton Cultural Center. Which, luckily,
happens to be located in Scranton, so the name fits nicely. Cant
make Fridays show? There will be another one at 2 p.m. Sunday.
>> VROOOOOM: After a weeks worth of holiday highlights,
what better way to relax than with a weekend full of loud motor-
cycle noises. The AMA Arenacross Series will be in-
vading the Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday,
Saturday and Sunday. The
professionals have the
course Friday and Saturday
nights starting at 7. And at
10 a.m. Sunday the amateurs
get their turn. Ticket prices vary
per event, and you can get them
any number of ways. Go to

.com for more info.

NANTICOKE If the Luzerne County
Community College Board of Trustees ap-
proves a contract renewal for President Tho-
mas Leary today, it could prove to be a con-
troversial conclusion to a controversial year.
For LCCC, 2011beganwitha report by the
Auditor Generals Office that determined
former Associate Dean Peter Paul Moses
had stolen at least $104,000 in cash fromthe
college cafeteria from 2004 through 2006.
Moses was fired in 2008 after discovery of
the theft andwas foundguiltyincourt, but at
the time he had been charged with stealing
less than $18,000.
The news got worse in June, when The
Middle States Commission on Higher Edu-
cation put LCCC on probation for failing to
sufficiently prove it was meeting accredita-
tion standards. Accreditation is needed to
get state and federal subsidies.
LCCC remains accredited, and Leary has
predicted probation will be lifted after the
college provides requested
evidence to the commis-
sion.
Within weeks after go-
ing on probation, LCCC
axed five management
posts in response to the
loss of $1.2 million in state
money. Gov. Tom Corbett
slashed education spending, refusing to
make upfor federal stimulus money that had
helped school districts and colleges through
the past two years. The cuts were

KINGSTON -- A Luzerne
County agency likely will be
among the first -- if not the very
first -- inNortheasternPennsylva-
nia to switch to compressed nat-
ural gas to fuel a fleet of vehicles.
Stanley Strelish, executive di-
rector of the Luzerne County
Transportation Authority, told
the authority board last week
that he has
been in discus-
sions with UGI
Penn Natural
Gas about
building a com-
pressed natural
gas (CNG) fill-
ing station in
Forty Fort to
fuel a fleet of about 60vans after a
transportation agency consolida-
tion takes place in the county
next year.
Plans are in the works for the
LCTAto consolidate withthe Lu-
zerne/Wyoming Counties Trans-
portationDepartment andHazle-
ton Public Transit. The Pennsyl-
vania Department of Transporta-
tion is pushing for smaller transit
systems to consolidate.
The LCTA runs public bus ser-
vice in northern Luzerne County,
HPT runs public bus service in
southern Luzerne County, and
L/WCTD provides para-transit
service to the elderly, children
and youth services, and special-
needs persons throughout Lu-
zerne and Wyoming counties.
The L/WCTD has about 60
vans that are in poor shape and
will need to be replaced over an
approximately eight-year period,
Strelish said. After researching
theoptions anddiscussingit with
UGI representatives, Strelish
saidit makes themost sensetogo
with CNG vans.
According to the U.S. Depart-
ment of Energy, CNG has a high
octane rating and excellent prop-
erties for spark-ignited internal
combustion engines. It is non-
toxic, non-corrosive and non-car-
cinogenic and presents no threat
to soil, surface water or ground-
water.
Its definitely the way to go. It
will present a significant savings
to the authority, Strelish said.
The initial cost of the vehicles
may be a little higher, but the
LCTA is
eyeing
natural
gas vans
Official says agency in talks
with utility to install CNG
filling station in Forty Fort.

WASHINGTON Facing
bankruptcy, the U.S. Postal Ser-
vice is pushing ahead with un-
precedented cuts to first-class
mail next springthat will slowde-
livery and, for the first time in 40
years, eliminate the chance for
stamped letters to arrive the next
day.
The estimated $3 billion in re-
ductions, to be announced in
broader detail today, are part of a
wide-ranging effort by the cash-
strappedPostal Servicetoquickly
trim costs, seeing no immediate
help fromCongress.
The changes would provide
short-term relief, but ultimately
could prove counterproductive,
pushing more of Americas busi-
ness onto the Internet. They
couldsloweverythingfromcheck
payments to Netflixs DVDs-by-
mail, add costs to mail-order pre-
scription drugs and threaten the
existence of newspapers and
time-sensitive magazines deliver-
ed by postal carrier to far-flung

That birthdaycardmailedfirst-
class to Mom also could arrive a
day or two late, if people dont

until the service goes away, said
Jim Corridore, analyst with S&P
Capital IQ, who tracks the ship-
ping industry. Over time, to the
extent thecustomer serviceexpe-
rience gets worse, it will only in-
crease the shift away frommail to

HAZLETON The citys pro-
posed 2012 budget has been the
subject of some debate as City
Council prepares to vote on the
$4.06 million spending plan that
would increase property taxes by
about 14 percent.
Among the catalysts of that de-
bate is Councilman Jack Mun-
dies belief that council plans to
sell the water company in order
to satisfy future anticipated def-
icits.
Mayor Joseph Yannuzzi has re-
cently stated he is aware of no
such plan, and Councilwoman
Karin Cabell agrees with him.
Cabell said she has no knowl-
edge of any such plan, and that
council has never formally or in-
formally discussed it.
What I am educated on and
will gladly comment on is the
budget, said Cabell, indicating
tax increases reflected in the pre-
sent proposed budget are reason-
able and necessary.
The proposed budget would
increase the city real estate tax to
3.23 mills from the current 2.83
mills. One mill equals $1 in tax
for every $1,000 of assessedvalue
on a property.
The budget will be presented
for its second reading on
Wednesday.
Answering Mundies voiced
concern that the city is spending
moneyunnecessarily, Cabell said
increases in health insurance,
contractual obligations to
unions, rising fuel costs and the
rising cost of doing business
have made a tax increases neces-
sary.
I may also add our tax reve-
nues have decreased, our popula-
tion increased, and with that in-
crease a record-breaking need for
services, hence, causing the per-
fect storm, Cabell said, noting
the total increase in cost to resi-
dents would be approximately
$32 per year.
Cabell said council has been
able to increase revenues for po-
lice and code enforcement with-
out any additional increase to
city residents.
We have been able to do these
two things through senior retire-
ments on the police force, as well
as additional state funding for an
officer and cruiser, via their auto
theft task force. We were able to
increase the amount of code offi-
cers directly from the savings of
no longer having a city engineer.
By approaching the new hires in
this manner, we have been able
to keep the hirings deficit neu-
tral. said Cabell.
At the heart of that discussion
is a seeming conflict between the
citys ability topay its bills andits
citizens abilitytopaytheir taxes.
Mundie believes the city must
come up with a solution that is
equitable to both the city and its
residents.
Addingtocityconcerns is that,
in 2013, the city will be approxi-
mately $600,000 shy of revenue
from the 2012 budget because
Hazleton City Properties will no
longer be payingthat installment
amount for purchasing land from
the city.
Mundie saidhe is still awaiting
some numbers from the city ad-
ministrator and will further clar-
ify his position at the next read-
ing of the proposed budget.
The mayor believes he and
council should focus on the 2012
budget at this time, before ad-
dressing these projected con-
cerns for 2013. However, he also
emphasized he is working with
Pennsylvania Economy League
in order to minimize excessive
tax burden on residents in the fu-
ture.
Yannuzzi said he is not only
crafting a budget, but also trying
to improve the quality of life for
city residents.
Tax hike in Hazleton budget is debated
The $4.06M budget will be
presented for its second
reading on Wednesday.

faces charges of driving under
the influence and possession of
marijuana as the result of a
traffic stop.

mph zone while traveling on I-81
south. Police said the investigat-
ing officer who stopped Rolon-
Arroyos vehicle said he observ-
ed a suspected marijuana ciga-
rette and open containers of

POLICE BLOTTER
LOS ANGELES The week-
end following the long Thanks-
giving holiday is traditionally
sluggish for the film business
and this year was no exception.
With no new movies opening
nationwide, audiences shied
away from the multiplex after
heading there in droves over tur-
keyday. As a result, it was thesec-
ond-slowest moviegoing week-
end of the year, with ticket re-
ceipts totaling only $82 million,
according to data compiled by
Hollywood.com.
The Twilight Saga: Breaking
DawnPart1 claimedtheNo. 1
spot at the box office for the third
consecutive weekend, again be-
sting The Muppets.
The vampire film pulled in
$16.9 million, according to an es-
timate from distributor Summit
Entertainment. After 17 days in
theaters, the fourth installment
in the series has grossed an im-
pressive $247.3 million in North
America. Still, thats slightly low-
er than the $255.4 million the
third Twilight film, New
Moon, grossed during the same
time period in 2009.
I think our audience has
grown a little bit older, and there-
fore their interests have changed
they may be shopping or do-
ing other things they werent a
year and a half ago, the studios
Domestic Distribution President
Richie Fay said of the difference
between the two Twilight
films. That audience was also a
big repeat audience, so maybe
this time theyve only seen the
movie once, when they would
have seen it 4
1
2 times before.
Heading into the weekend, it
was expected that Walt Disney
Studios The Muppets would
be able to outsell Breaking
Dawn. Despite being beloved by
critics and moviegoers, word-of-
mouthonthe kid-friendly picture
was not strong enough to propel
it tothe topspot. Instead, the mo-
vie came in far below expecta-
tions with $11.2 million, bringing
its overall total to $56.1 million
sinceits openingover Thanksgiv-
ing.
Dave Hollis, Disneys execu-
tive vice president of distribu-
tion, saidhe believes the filmis in
the process of transitioning into
being a family film after playing
to a large contingent of nostalgic
adults last weekend. (Roughly 65
percent of the crowdwhosawthe
movie upon its debut last week-
end was over the age of 18.)
Last weekend, we had that
white-hot core of Muppets fans
come out en masse, Hollis said.
The kind of business were do-
ing right now is going to mirror
our performances on family films
meaning its poised to have
strong legs over time.
Compared with their competi-
tion, Hugo and Arthur Christ-
mas had relatively modest
drops. Martin Scorseses 3-D
Hugo fell 33 percent to $7.6
million, while Arthur Christ-
mas, an animated 3-D holiday
tale, sawreceipts drop39 percent
to $7.4 million.

WASHINGTON President
Barack Obama, in lauding the
actors, musicians and others re-
ceiving Kennedy Center Honors
Sunday night, also was looking
for advice.
Everybody likes him, Oba-
ma said of Yo-Yo Ma, one of the
several artists honored. Youve
got to give me some tips.
Obama noted that the cellist
has appeared on Sesame Street
and said, I thought about ask-
ing him to go talk to Congress.
Secretary of State Hillary Rod-
ham Clinton was home for less
than 36 hours between diplo-
matic travels but found time to
honor the artists.
On Saturday night, between
her historic visit to Myanmar
and a trip to Germany to discuss
Afghanistans future, Clinton
hosted a dinner for some big
names fromBroadway, jazz, pop,
classical music and Hollywood.
Ma, Barbara Cook, Neil Dia-
mond, Sonny Rollins and Meryl
Streep also were saluted by Oba-
ma and their fellow artists with
tribute performances at the Ken-
nedy Center for the Performing
Arts.
After visiting the isolated
Southeast Asian country also
known as Burma, Clinton said
such U.S. artists have worldwide
influence by using their freedom
of creativity and expression.
You may not know it, but
somewhere in a little tiny room
in Burma or even in North Ko-
rea, someone is desperately try-
ing to hear you or to see you, to
experience you, Clinton told
the crowd. And if they are lucky
enough to make that connec-
tion, it can literally change lives
and countries.
Entertainers who have gath-
ered for the event include Ste-
phen Colbert, Kevin Kline, Tra-
cey Ullman, Anne Hathaway and
others. Asurprise lineup of stars
will perform as part of the na-
tions highest honor for those
who have defined American cul-
ture through the arts.
CBS will broadcast the show
on Dec. 27.
Drawing one of the loudest
laughs of the evening, Obama
made passing reference to Dia-
monds 70s-era wardrobe, say-
ing, Now, his shirts arent as
flashy as they usedtobe. I notice
youre buttoned up all the way to
the top.
Diamond said its a great co-
incidence that his work is being
honored in a show hosted by
Caroline Kennedy. The song
Sweet Caroline is a storyabout
he and his former wife, but the
name is Kennedys, he said on
the red carpet.
Im going to have to thank
her for that, he said.
Obama said all the honorees
felt the need to express them-
selves and share it.
Thats why we dance, even if,
as Michelle says, I look silly do-
ing it, he added to laughter.
Streep, 62, has made more
than 45 movies and won two Os-
cars in a career spanning Shak-
espeare to ABBAwith the movie
Mamma Mia! For her part,
Streep said she is in awe of the
accolades.
Look where we are, look
whos here, Streep said. Its
overwhelming. I feel very
proud.
Lionel Richie told the AP that
he got into the music business
because he wanted to be Dia-
mond.
Hes a great storyteller, Ri-
chie said, as with the hit single
America. Hes not an acrobat-
ic singer. Basically he told the
story in a very simple voice.
Ma, one of the best-known
classical musicians, has played
the cello since he was 4. Now at
56, he is hailed as a musical am-
bassador whose work has
spanned styles around the world
from Bluegrass to sounds from
the SilkRoad. His star power has
drawn fans including Colbert,
conductor John Williams and
even Elmo from Sesame
Street.
Cook, 84, made her Broadway
debut in 1951 and later had her
breakthrough in Leonard Bern-
steins musical version of Vol-
taires Candide. She topped
that performance as Marian the
Librarian in 1957s hit musical
The Music Man, for which she
won a Tony Award.
Glenn Close called Cook an
icon for anyone who has worked
on Broadway, adding that Cook
went on to a successful solo ca-
reer and is still performing.
Rollins, 81, is a jazz saxophon-
ist whohas sharedthestagewith
Miles Davis and Dizzy Gillespie,
among others. He is one of the
last surviving giants from the
golden era of jazz.
America is the home of jazz.
Its what we started, he said.
By the way, hip hop music is a
part of jazz, believe it or not.

WILKES-BARRE Just after
noon on Dec. 6, Abdul Hakeem
Shabazz dialed 911.
He had been shot and was ly-
ing on the ground on North 3rd
Street in Hazleton.
A year later, three men will
stand trial on homicide and re-
lated charges in Shabazzs
death.
The trial of brothers Izel Wal-
ter Garrett, 19, and Isiah Jesse
Garrett, 22, both of Mechanics-
burg, and their cousin Tyrek
Smith, 25, of Harrisburg, will
begin today with jury selection.
A jury and alternates will be
selected, andtestimony may be-
gin as early as Tuesday. Testi-
mony is expected to last two
weeks, according to court pa-
pers.
Luzerne County Judge Tina
Polachek Gartley will preside
over the trial.
Assistant District Attorneys
Frank McCabe andJill Matthew
Lada are prosecuting the case.
Izel Garrett is representedby at-
torneys Brian Corcoran and Al-
lyson Kacmarski; Isiah Garrett
by attorney Robert Mozenter, of
Philadelphia; and Smith by at-
torney Royce Morris, of Harris-
burg.
Police said the shooting was
the end result of a drug deal
gone bad that included counter-
feit money.
The Garretts and Smith were
visiting the Garretts father and
his girlfriend in West Hazleton.
Isiah Garrett told authorities
his father arranged for Shabazz
to sell marijuana to him, his
brother and cousin.
During an interview with au-
thorities, Izel Garrett said Sha-
bazz entered the apartment and
put a brick-size amount of
marijuana on the table after
Smith pulled out $400 to $500
in cash.
The victim examined the
money and noticed it to be fake.
He threwthe money back to the
table and an exchange of words
occurred between Smith and
(Shabazz), court papers say
Izel said.
Isiah corroborated his broth-
ers statement, saying Shabazz
looked at the money as if some-
thingwasnt right withit. Smith
then pulled out a gun, pointing
it at Shabazz. Shabazz reached
for the gun and Smith hit himin
the head with a closed fist.
Izel added that Smith then
fired two shots at Shabazz.
Izels girlfriend accompanied
him and his brother on the trip
to West Hazleton that weekend.
The girlfriend, who was in a
bedroomat the time of the drug
sale and shooting, told officials
that after hearing two gunshots
she heard Smith say, How you
let him get up and get away?
Why you letting him run?
Shabazz fled the house after
being shot. He was found lying
outside of 210 N. Third St., near
Boundary Street.
He died the following morn-
ing at Geisinger Wyoming Val-
ley Medical Center in Plains
Township.
An autopsy performed by fo-
rensic pathologist Dr. Gary
Ross found that Shabazz was
shot twice -- through the left
arm and in the left stomach.

PLAINS TWP. The closing of the Di-
saster Recovery Center at Luzerne Coun-
ty Community College at the end of No-
vember marked the departure of the Fed-
eral Emergency Management Agencys
public face locally, but the agency will
continue to maintain a
presence in Luzerne
County for months and
years to come.
At the former Sun-
shine Market on Route
315, FEMA has set up
both a staging area for
temporary housing
units and an office for
about 55 workers.
FEMAs Sunshine
Market facility is not a
public office; in fact,
public access to the fa-
cility is forbidden due
to the safety hazard
posed by big-rig trucks
dragging mobile
homes inandout of the
parking lot.
It is, however, the
baseof operations from
which outreach workers are assisting
floodvictims eligible for temporary hous-
ing assistance in finding a place to stay
andinplanningtheir returntopermanent
housing, be it through rebuilding their
homes or finding newones.
Inmid-October the first two- andthree-
bedroom mobile homes and smaller one
and two-bedroompark units began arriv-
ing in the Sunshine staging area fromFE-
MAstorage lots and dealers.
FEMARegionIII Disaster RecoveryDi-
rector Jack Schuback said he recognized
within days of the flood that damage was
extensiveenoughinsomeareastorequire
temporaryhousinginmobilehomescom-
monly called FEMAtrailers.
Westartedthat processliterallywithin
days after the disaster declaration, Schu-
back said.
The housing units continue to arrive
daily as others roll off the lot for place-
ment in existing mobile home parks, in
parks being expanded or purpose-built to
house flood victims and on private prop-
erty outside the FEMA-defined flood
plain.
Of the roughly 300 Northeastern Penn-
sylvania households slated to receive the
units, about 110 are currently occupying
them, Schuback said. Those households
represent aminutefractionof theapproxi-
mately 42,000 Pennsylvania residents
who reported damage from Tropical
StormLeeand49,000whoreporteddam-
age fromTropical StormIrene.
In return for the rent-free housing, vic-
tims must formulate a permanent hous-
ing plan with FEMA and work towards
that goal.

WILKES-BARRE -- As the
number of days before
Christmas decreases, the
congestion at local shopping
areas increases, leaving
many with a Scrooge-like
feeling after bat-
tling for gift pur-
chases.
Fortunately,
events such as
the Wilkes-Barre
Jewish Commu-
nity Centers Ho-
liday Boutique
are popping up
more frequently
inthe area, allow-
ing holiday shop-
pers access to a
variety of local and unique
products in a low-stress envi-
ronment.
Thats the exact reason Ve-
ronica Kendzor of Swoyers-
ville was in attendance Sun-
day.
I was at the mall yester-
day and I had to just stop
shopping, she said. There
were a lot of people and it
was aggravating. This is nice,
and a lot of these things are
very original, very fun pre-
sents I canget for my family.
The Weis Auditorium at
the JCC was filled with more
than a dozen vendors touting
an array of products.
Kathy Roth of Kingston is
the creator of Good Grief
Doggy Duds, which are
handmade, customizable
coats that help keep pups
warm in the colder months.
Roth deals in fleece, cordu-
roy, weather-re-
sistant, denim
and quilted mate-
rials. She operates
from her home,
not a store, so
such an exclusive
product as this de-
pends heavily on
shows such as the
boutique to
spread the word.
We generate
the bulk of the
business this way, Rothsaid.
Its good to be able to talk
face-to-face with people in-
terested in the coats, like I
can here.
Chris Keren and her hus-
band, Liron, of Luzerne, run
the Nature Creation stand at
the mall, but they decided to
bringtheir all-natural painre-
lief and relaxation cold and
hot packs to a more intimate
setting.
Its nice because there are
a lot of familiar faces here
that we can share this with,
Chris said. She and Liron are
members of Temple Israel.
To me, this is also about
supporting the community.
Barbara Sugarman, adult
and cultural director at JCC,
agrees. This is the first time
in several years the JCC has
held the holiday boutique
event.
We did this because it is,
overall, a community event,
Sugarman said. Its Hannu-
kah, its Christmas, its the
holiday season.
While shoppers are pur-
chasing gifts to give to loved
ones, they arent only sup-
porting local retailers, but al-
so helping out a community
organization. A portion of
the sales from the JCC Holi-
day Boutique will benefit the
adult and senior adult pro-
grams at the center.
Other companies present
at the Holiday Boutique were
Whimsy Press, a boutique
design firm based in Atlanta;
homemade dog cookies by
K-9 Cookie Jar; the JCCKnit-
ting Bee, which sold hats,
scarves, and baby items; and
Robyn Finberg Design with
custom-made tutus, hair
bows and head bands.
Shoppers escape crowds at Holiday Boutique
More than a dozen vendors
attend event at JCCC that
also benefits programs.

WASHINGTON
New tax-cut plan in works?
S
enate Majority Leader Harry Reid
has a new proposal to extend a tax
cut for U.S. workers, a Democratic ally
said Sunday.
Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D., said on
Fox News Sunday that Reid will
announce today the details of a plan
that would extend a cut in the payroll
taxes used to pay for Social Security.
Conrad would not reveal the specifics
but said it will be paid for and will
represent a compromise on Republican
and Democratic plans the Senate voted
on last week. Neither had the votes to
pass.
A spokesman for Reid, D-Nev., did
not respond to a request for comment.
Don Stewart, a spokesman for Minority
Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky.,, said
the Republican leader didnt know
anything about a new proposal.
TEHRAN, IRAN
U.S. drone plane shot down
Irans armed forces have shot down
an unmanned U.S. spy plane that vio-
lated Iranian airspace along the coun-
trys eastern border, the official IRNA
news agency reported Sunday.
An unidentified military official
quoted in the report warned of a strong
and crushing response to any viola-
tions of the countrys airspace by Amer-
ican drone aircraft.
An advanced RQ-170 unmanned
American spy plane was shot down by
Irans armed forces. It suffered minor
damage and is now in possession of
Irans armed forces, IRNA quoted the
official as saying.
No further details were published.
The U.S.-led coalition in Afghanistan
said in a statement the aircraft may be
an American drone that its operators
lost contact with last week while it was
flying a mission over neighboring west-
ern Afghanistan.
SILVERTON, COLO.
Four killed in plane crash
Authorities say all four people
aboard a small plane died when it
crashed in the southwest Colorado
mountains.
Federal Aviation Administration
spokesman Mike Fergus confirmed the
deaths Sunday. No names have been
released.
The Socata TB-21 crashed at about 3
p.m. Saturday. Fergus said the debris
field covered more than a mile.
A local official said the body of one
victim was being removed from the site
Sunday. It was unclear how long recov-
ery work would continue because
weather was worsening.
Weather cut the search short on
Saturday. Temperatures dipped to 4
degrees overnight, and up to 10 inches
of snow fell at the scene.
ASHEVILLE, N.C.
Graham still progressing
Doctors say theyre encouraged by
the Rev. Billy Grahams improvement
as he recovers from pneumonia but
havent set a date for his discharge
from a North Carolina hospital.
Officials at Mission Hospital in Ashe-
ville say Graham also is progressing in
his program of physical therapy and is
walking more in the private corridor
outside his room.
Graham was admitted Wednesday
night after suffering from congestion, a
cough and slight fever that was later
diagnosed as pneumonia.

BRUSSELS Europes
government-debt crisis, which
has dragged on for more than
two years, is entering a pivotal
week, as leaders across the
continent converge to prevent
a collapse of the euro and a
global financial panic that
could result.
Expectations are rising that
Fridays summit of leaders of
the 27 countries in the Eu-
ropean Union will yield a
breakthrough. An agreement
ontighter integrationof the17
EUcountries that use the euro
especially on budget mat-
ters would be seen as a cru-
cial first step. That could trig-
ger further emergency aid
from the European Central
Bank, the International Mone-
tary Fund or some combina-
tion, analysts say.
The coming days will de-
cide if the euro will survive or
not, Emma Marcegaglia, the
headof Italys industrial lobby,
Confindustria, said Sunday.
French President Nicolas
Sarkozy, German Chancellor
Angela Merkel, European
Central Bank Chief Mario
Draghi andevenU.S. Treasury
Secretary Timothy Geithner
will star in a five-day financial
drama leading up to the sum-
mit.
If the summit is a failure,
Sarkozy warned last week,
the worldwill not wait for Eu-
rope.
Sarkozy and Merkel meet in
Paris today to unveil a propos-
al for closer political and eco-
nomic ties between the 17 eu-
ro countries. While the lead-
ers differ on some of the de-
tails, their cooperation has
been so tight they have come
to be known by a single name
Merkozy.

need for tougher, enforceable
rules that would prevent gov-
ernments from spending or

nudephotosonlineorviacellphone
may be far less common than peo-
ple think, newresearch suggests.
Only1percent of kids aged10 to
17 have shared images of them-
selvesorothersthat involveexplicit
nudity, a nationally representative
study found. Roughly the same
number saidtheydsharedsuggest-
ive but less
graphic photos;
while 7 percent
said theyd re-
ceived either
type of picture.
The research
suggests texting
of sexual photos
among younger
kids is extreme-
ly rare but more
common
among older
teens.
The results
are reassuring,
showing that
teen sexting
isnt rampant, usually isnt mali-
cious, and is generally not some-
thing parents should panic over,
saidleadauthorKimberlyMitchell,
aresearchassistantpsychologypro-
fessor at the University of New
Hampshire.
Previous reports said as many as
one in five young people 20 per-
cent have participated in sext-
ing. But some surveys included ol-
der teens and people in their early
20s. And some used definitions of
sexting that included racy text
messages without photos, or imag-
es no more revealing than what
someone might see at a beach, au-
thors of the newstudy said.
They focused only on pictures,
and asked more detailed questions
about the kinds of racy photos kids
are sharing.
The researchers did a separate
study on howpolice deal with teen
sextingof photos. Contrarytosome
reports, that research suggests few
kids are being prosecutedor forced
toregister as sexoffenders for sext-
ing. It estimates that nearly 4,000
teensextingcases were reportedto
police nationwide in 2008 and
2009.
Slightly more than one-third of
those cases resulted in arrests.
About one-third of all cases in-
volved teens and young adults; the
adults were muchmore likely to be
arrested.
The studies were released Mon-
day in the journal Pediatrics.
The research shows that sexting

CAIROIslamistpartiescap-
tured an overwhelming majority
of votes in the first round of
Egypts parliamentary elections,
setting up a power struggle with
the muchweaker liberals behind
the uprising that ousted Hosni
Mubarak10 months ago. Ahard-
linereligiousgroupthat wantsto
impose strict Islamic lawmade a
strong showing with nearly a
quarter of the ballots, according
to results releasedSunday.
The tallies offer only a partial
indicationof howthe newparlia-
ment will look. There are still
two more rounds of voting in 18
of the countrys 27 provinces
over the coming month and run-
off elections today and Tuesday
to determine almost all of the
seats allocated for individuals in
thefirst round. But thegripof the
Islamists over the next parlia-
ment appears set, particularly
considering their popularity in
provinces voting in the next
rounds.
The High Election Commis-
sion said the Islamic fundamen-
talist Muslim Brotherhoods
Freedom and Justice Party gar-
nered36.6percent of the 9.7mil-
lion valid ballots cast for party
lists. The Nour Party, a more
hard-line Islamist group, cap-
tured24.4 percent.
The strong Islamist showing
worries liberal parties, and even
some religious parties, who fear
thetwogroups will worktopush
areligious agenda. It has alsoleft
manyof theyouthful activists be-
hind the uprising that ousted
MubarakinFebruaryfeelingthat
their revolution has been hi-
jacked.
Since Mubaraks fall, the
groups that led the uprising and
Islamists have been locked in a
fight over the countrys newcon-
stitution. The new parliament
will be tasked, in theory, with se-
lecting a 100-member panel to
draft the new constitution. But
adding to tensions, the ruling
military council that took over
from Mubarak has suggested it
will choose80of thosemembers,
and said parliament will have no
say in naming a new govern-
ment.
A round of runoffs between
more than 100 individual candi-
dates competing in the first
round for around 50 seats, is set
for today andTuesday.

MANCHESTER, N.H. With
the implosion of Herman Cains
campaign amid accusations of
adultery and sexual harassment,
the once-crowded 2012 Republi-
can presidential field appears to
be narrowing to a two-man race
between Mitt Romney and Newt
Gingrich.
GOP voters have one month
before the leadoff Iowa caucuses.
Gingrich is showing strength in
the latest Iowa poll, while Rom-
ney is strong in New Hampshire,
site of the first primary.
Romney has maintained a po-
litical network since his failed
2008 presidential bid, especially
in New Hampshire. Gingrich,
whose campaign nearly col-
lapsed several months ago, is re-
lying on his debate performances
andthe goodwill he built up with
some conservatives as a congres-
sional leader in the 1980s and
1990s.
Gingrichs efforts appear to be
paying off in Iowa. A Des Moines
Register poll released late Satur-
day found the former House
speaker leading the GOP field
with25percent support, aheadof
Ron Paul at 18 percent and Rom-
ney at 16.
Cains suspension of his cam-
paign Saturday, and Texas Gov.
Rick Perrys continued struggles
to make headway with voters,
have focused the partys atten-
tion on Romney, a former Massa-
chusetts governor, and Gingrich,
a one-time congressman from
Georgia. They offer striking con-
trasts in personality, government
experience and campaign organi-
zation.
Their political philosophies
and differences are a bit harder to
discern. Both men have changed
their positions on issues such as
climate change. And Gingrich, in
particular, is known to veer into
unusual territories, such as child
labor practices.
Romney has said he differs
with Gingrich on child labor
laws. Gingrich recently suggest-
ed that children as young as nine
should work as assistant school
janitors, to earn money and learn
work ethics.
Leading the pack means draw-
ing criticism from those in the
rear, such as Pennsylvanias Rick
Santorum. Consistently lagging
in the polls, Santorum took
swipes at both leaders Sunday on
ABCs This Week with Chris-
tiane Amanpour.
Gingrich, he said, isnt a strong
champion of conservative social
values andputs theminthe back
of the bus.
He has never really been an
advocate of pushing those issues.
Newt is someone who likes to get
issues that are 80 to 90 percent in
the polls, and 80 percent in the
polls are generally not necessar-
ily conservative -- strong conser-
vative issues. But thats how
Newt is -- has always tried to gov-
ern. And I respect that.
Santorum acknowledged that
Romney had become more con-
servative on issues, but ques-
tioned whether he can be trust-
ed.
The best indication of what
someone is going to do in the fu-
ture is what theyve done in the
past, he said.
Cains announcement in Atlan-
ta offered a possible opening for
Romney or Gingrich to make a
dramatic move in hopes of seiz-
ing momentum for the sprint to
the Jan. 3 Iowa caucus. Neither
man did. They appear willing to
play things carefully and low-key
for now.
At a town hall meeting in New
York sponsored by tea party sup-
porters, Gingrich declined to
characterize the race as a direct
contest between himself and
Romney. Any of the remaining
GOP contenders could stage a
comeback before the Iowa cau-
cuses, he said. Im not going to
say that any of my friends cant
suddenly surprise us, Gingrich
said.
Paul may be one of those candi-
dates. He said Sunday his discus-
sions of the war andthe countrys
financial condition are resonat-
ing with voters in Iowa and New
Hampshire. He points to the Io-
wa poll numbers as a measure of
his success and says he also
stands to gain from Cain drop-
ping out of the race, and his orga-
nization is paying attention to
where Cains supporters might
go.
There are a
lot of people
who call them-
selves Tea Par-
ty people that
did like the in-
dependent min-
dedness of Her-
man Cain. So
Im optimistic
that well pick
up some votes
from there, he
said Sunday on
CNNs State of
the Union.
But once
high-flying con-
tenders such as
Perry and Rep.
Michele Bach-
mann of Minne-
sota have not managed to bounce
back so far, despite weeks of try-
ing.
Bachmann said Sunday she
was the consistent conserva-
tive in the race and her cam-
paign would benefit most from
Cains departure.
Alot of Herman Cain support-
ers have been calling our office
and theyve been coming over to
our side, she said, also on CNN.
They saw Herman Cain as an
outsider and I think they see that
my voice would be the one that
would be most reflective of his.
Cains once-prospering cam-
paign was undone by numerous
allegations of sexual wrongdo-
ing.
Gingrich, twice divorced and
now married to a woman with
whom he had an extramarital af-
fair, has been the most obvious
beneficiary of Cains precipitous
slide.
But Perry, Bachmann and pos-
sibly others are likely to make a
playfor Cains anti-establishment
tea party backing.
Romney, Gingrich battle before Iowa caucuses

Republican presidential candidates Newt Gingrich and Mitt Romney participate in a presidential
debate at St. Anselm College in Manchester, N.H. in June.
The best
indication
of what
someone is
going to do
in the fu-
ture is
what
theyve
done in the
past.
Rick Santorum
GOP contender
from
Pennsylvania
WASHINGTON Republi-
can Mitt Romney accuses Presi-
dent Barack Obama of consider-
ing America just another na-
tion. To other GOP politicians
running for the White House,
Obama has apologized for the
United States and is presiding
over the nations decline.
Now comes the counteroffen-
sive.
The president of the United
States is defending his faith in
America, confronting GOP ef-
forts to undercut his leadership
and raise questions about his pa-
triotism as he seeks re-election.
In the battle over American
exceptionalism, Obama used a
recent trip to Asia to highlight
Americas role as the strongest
and most influential nation on
earth. In this election season, re-
sponding to the Republican cri-
tique is essential for Obama, the
only incumbent ever compelled
to show a birth certificate to de-
fend his legitimacy.
Sometimes the pundits and
the newspapers and the TVcom-
mentators love totalkabout how
America is slipping and America
is in decline, Obama said
Wednesday at a New York fun-
draiser. Thats not what youfeel
when youre in Asia. Theyre
looking to us for leadership.
They knowthat America is great
not just because were powerful,
but also because we have a set of
values that the world admires.
We dont just think about
whats good for us, but were also
thinking about whats good for
the world, he said. Thats what
makes us special. Thats what
makes us exceptional.
Republicans have seized on
American exceptionalism, a
belief among many in the nation
that the U.S. is special among
global powers, and tried to por-
trayObama as expressingambiv-
alence about the promise of his
own country. The message re-
sounds with party activists who
still admire President RonaldRe-
agan, who memorialized Amer-
ica as that Shining City on a
Hill during the 1980s.
We have a president right
now who thinks Americas just
another nation. America is anex-
ceptional nation, Romney, a for-
mer Massachusetts governor,
said during a GOP debate in Las
Vegas last month. Even his cam-
paign slogan Believe in
America suggests that the
current president doesnt.
Others have tried to use it to
their advantage.
Texas Gov. RickPerry, inanin-
terview with Fox News Bill
OReilly last month, said Obama
had traveled around the coun-
try making excuses for America,
apologizing for America, saying
that America is not an exem-
plary country.
Former House Speaker Newt
Gingrich criticized Obama after
16 Latin American and Carib-
bean nations filed friend of the
court briefs in a Justice Depart-
ment lawsuit against a tough
new immigration law in South
Carolina, home to an important
GOP primary. It makes you
wonder what countrydoes Presi-
dent Obama think he is presi-
dent of, Gingrich said.
Obama has given detractors
ample material for their attacks.
At a San Francisco fundraiser
in October, the president talked
about the importance of invest-
ing in education, new roads and
bridges and other ways to build
the economy.
We used to have the best
stuff. Anybody been to Beijing
Airport lately? Obama said, ask-
ing what has changed. Well,
weve lost our ambition, our
imagination, and our willing-
ness to do the things that built
the Golden Gate Bridge and
Hoover Dam. Republicans
picked up on the comments, ac-
cusing Obama of calling Ameri-
cans unambitious.

PORTLAND, Maine Twen-
ty years ago, wreath company
owner Morrill Worcester and a
dozen other people laid 5,000
wreaths on headstones at Ar-
lington National Cemetery. It
was Worcesters way of giving
thanks to the nations veterans
with leftover unsold wreaths.
This year, Worcester has ar-
ranged for up to 100,000
wreaths to be placed on grave-
sites at the military cemetery
Dec. 10 in his biggest wreath-
laying undertaking yet.
A convoy of more than 20
trucks left Worcester Wreath
Co. in the eastern Maine town
of Harrington on Sunday to be-
gin the six-day journey to the
cemetery in Arlington, Va., out-
side Washington, the final rest-
ing place for hundreds of thou-
sands of veterans and a tourist
site that draws 4 million vis-
itors a year. Along the way,
therell be ceremonies at
schools, veterans homes and in
communities in Maine, Massa-
chusetts, New York, New Jer-
sey, Pennsylvania, Delaware
and Maryland.
Worcester never expectedthe
wreath-laying effort to grow
from a single tractor-trailer car-
rying a fewthousand wreaths to
84 big rigs delivering wreaths
to Arlington and hundreds of lo-
cations. Besides the Arlington
ceremony, his Wreaths Across
America organization has also
organized more than 700 other
ceremonies at veterans ceme-
teries and monuments across
the country and overseas in-
volving 225,000 wreaths.
We havent really tried to
push it; its really just grown on
its own, Worcester said. We
have a hard time keeping up
with it.
Worcester, who has never
served in the military, came up
with the idea of a wreath-laying
ceremony 20 years ago when he
found himself with an extra
5,000 wreaths in December, too
late to bring to market. He de-
cided upon Arlington National
Cemetery, which he had visited
as a child.
After that first year, Worces-
ter continued donating wreaths
and holding ceremonies at the
cemetery. The event remained
relatively small with little fan-
fare until a photo, showing
thousands of green wreaths
with red ribbons nestled
against headstone on a snow-
covered ground, made its way
around the Internet about five
years ago.
After that, Worcester got
thousands of emails and letters
from people wanting to donate,
and inquiries from others ask-
ing howthey couldholdwreath-
laying ceremonies of their own
to pay tribute to those who have
served in the military. So he and
his wife founded the nonprofit
Wreaths Across America to take
in donations and organize hun-
dreds of wreath-laying ceremo-
nies at veterans cemeteries.
Wreaths Across America put
24,000 wreaths on Arlington
headstones last year, and ini-
tially hoped to put them on vir-
tually all 220,000 headstones
this year. That initiative fell
short, but Worcester said hes
still pleased that theyll be able
to put out 100,000 of the laurels.
Of the 325,000 wreaths in all
of this years ceremonies, Wor-
cester is donating 25,000. His
company makes the rest, but
they are paid for through dona-
tions from groups and individu-
als and through corporate spon-
sorships.
100,000 wreaths are heading to Arlington National Cemetery

trucks left Worcester Wreath
Co. in Maine on Sunday.

ALLENTOWN The three
old Army buddies faced one an-
other for thefirst timein70years,
united by their experience in
Americas darkest hour of the
20thcentury. Oneof themreflect-
edonthe time gone by since their
early days in uniform.
Ill tell you howit is with me,
said 89-year-old Joe Lockard, a
newsboy cap on his head and a
cane by his side. This is a little
poem I wrote:
I look in the mirror and what
do I see?
Some oldmanlooking back at
me.
Yeah! 89-year-old Dick
Schimmel broke in, instantly
identifying with the rhyme.
Youre a poet and dont know
it, quipped Bob McKenney, 90
years old and in a wheelchair.
Boyish grins spread across
their wrinkled faces. Their sense
of camaraderie had not dimin-
ished since the day they saw
smoke over Pearl Harbor.
Seven decades ago, the three
called Pennsylvania their home.
They hadjoinedthe Army during
the Great Depression to seek ad-
venture. Shipped out to Hawaii,
they met while serving in a unit
newlyformedtouseradar as ade-
fense against hostile aircraft.
I dont think anybody realized
the Japanese would attack Pearl
Harbor, said Lockard. They
were looking for them to attack
the Philippines, or somewhere
like that, closer to Japan.
The week before, Schimmel
said in a 2007 interview, we
were onthe alert. We didnt know
where the hell the Japanese navy
was. All of a sudden, bingo, the
alerts off.
The next day, Sunday, Dec. 7,
1941, the Japanese attacked.
Lockard and Schimmel visited
McKenney at Phoebe Home in
Allentown last month.
In their youth, on the eve of di-
saster, they belonged to the Sig-
nal Corps Aircraft Warning Ser-
vice on Oahu. Pvts. Joseph Lock-
ard and Robert McKenney
worked at the Opana mobile ra-
dar station on the northern tip of
the island. Pfc. Richard Schim-
mel, 19, of Allentown, was about
30 miles south at Fort Shafter,
which lay east of Pearl Harbor
and had an information center
linking the five radar sites across
the island.
Lockard, also 19, grew up in
Williamsport.
McKenney, 20, came from Phi-
ladelphia and was fond of joking
and horsing around. He earlier
served in the Civilian Conserva-
tion Corps and the Merchant Ma-
rine, and had made a hobby of
electronics, the reason he joined
the Signal Corps.
Lockard and Pvt. George El-
liott rode a truck to Opana to
work 4-7 a.m. Dec. 7.
Lockard decided to give Elliott
some training.
I started to put himin front of
the scope and there it was this
huge echo on the screen. I had
never seen any kind of response
on the equipment that was so
large.
At first I thought there might
have been some glitch with the
equipment. So I checked every-
thing I could and everything op-
erated OK, so it had to be real.
There had to be something out
there.
The blip was 136 miles out and
closing fast. It was 7:02 a.m.
Elliott tried to call the informa-
tioncenter but couldnt raise any-
one on the plotters line because
the plotters had all gone to break-
fast at 7. He used the administra-
tive line to call the switchboard,
and Pvt. Joseph McDonald an-
swered. McDonald, from Arch-
bald, Lackawanna County, and
Lockard were friends.
Joe told us that everyone had
left the building, Lockard said.
We asked him to look around
and see if he could find anybody,
and he did. He found a young Air
Corps lieutenant, Kermit Tyler,
and brought him to the phone.
I talked to Kermit Tyler and
tried to convey my excitement at
the fact that we had never seen
anything like this on radar, and
that it obviously hadtobe planes.
I didnt have anyidea howmany. I
pushedit as far as I could, but you
can only argue with an officer so
long.
He just said, Dont worry
about it. Tyler believed the blip
was B-17bombers dueinfromthe
mainland.
McDonald left the information
center and entered the tent he
shared with Schimmel. Feeling
uneasy, McDonald woke his bud-
dy. It was about 7:45 a.m.
Hey, Shim, the Japs are com-
ing, he said.
I said, What do you mean?
And he started telling me about
the information he got from
Lockard about the radar, Schim-
mel said. We were sitting there
talkingfor a whileandall of a sud-
den we heard BOOM!
After Pearl Harbor, Lockard,
McKenney and Schimmel took
separate paths.

EL MIRAGE, Ariz. The 13-
year-old girl opened the door of
her home in this small city on the
edge of Phoenix to encounter a
man who said that his car had
broken down and he needed to
use the phone. Once inside, the
man pummeled the teen frombe-
hind, knocking her unconscious
and sexually assaulting her.
Seven months before, in an
apartment two miles away, an-
other 13-year-old girl was fondled
in the middle of the night by her
mothers live-in boyfriend. She
woke up in her room at least
twice a weektofindhimstanding
over her, claiming to be looking
for her mothers cell phone.
Both cases were among more
than 400 sex-crimes reported to
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Ar-
paios office during a three-year
period ending in 2007 includ-
ingdozens of allegedchildmoles-
tations that were inadequately
investigated and in some instanc-
es were not worked at all, accord-
ing to current and former police
officers familiar with the cases.
In El Mirage alone, where Ar-
paios office was providing con-
tract police services, officials dis-
covered at least 32 reported child
molestations with victims as
young as 2 years old where the
sheriffs office failed to follow
through, even though suspects
were known in all but six cases.
Many of the victims, said a re-
tired El Mirage police official
who reviewed the files, were chil-
dren of illegal immigrants.
The botched sex-crimes inves-
tigations have served as an em-
barrassment to a department
whose sheriff is the self-de-
scribed Americas Toughest
Sheriff and a national hero to
conservatives on immigration.
Arpaios office refused several
requests over a period of months
to answer questions about the in-
vestigations and declined a pub-
lic records request for an internal
affairs report, citingpotential dis-
ciplinary actions.
Brian Sands, a top sheriffs offi-
cial who is in charge of the poten-
tial discipline of any responsible
employees, declined to say why
theywerent investigated. There
are policy violations that have oc-
curred here, Sands said. Its ob-
vious, but I cant comment on
who or what.
Sands said officers had subse-
quently moved to clear up inade-
quately investigated sex-crimes
in El Mirage and elsewhere in the
county. He said leads were
worked if they existed and cases
were closed if there was no fur-
ther evidence to pursue.
Arpaios office was under con-
tract to provide police services in
El Mirage as the city struggled
with its then dysfunctional de-
partment. After the contract end-
ed and El Mirage was re-estab-
lishing its own police operation,
the city spent a year sifting
through layers of disturbingly in-
complete casework.

About 400 sex-crimes were

WASHINGTON With the
Iraq war ending and an Afghanis-
tan exit in sight, the Marine
Corps is beginning a historic
shift, returning to its roots as a
seafaring force that will get
smaller, lighter and, it hopes, less
bogged down in land wars.
This moment of change hap-
pens to coincide with a reorient-
ing of American security priori-
ties to the Asia-Pacific region,
where China has been building
military muscle during a decade
of U.S. preoccupation in the grea-
ter Middle East. That suits the
Marines, who see the Pacific as a
home away from home.
After two turns at combat in
Iraq, first as invaders in the 2003
marchtoBaghdadandlater as oc-
cupiers of landlocked Anbar
province, the Marines left the
country in early 2010 to reinforce
the fight in southern Afghanis-
tan. Over that stretch the Ma-
rines became what the former
Joint Chiefs of Staff chairman,
Navy Adm. Mike Mullen, has
called their own worst night-
mare a secondAmericanland
army, a static, ground-pounding
auxiliary force.
Thats scaryfor theMarines be-
cause, for some in Congress, it
raises this question: Does a na-
tion drowning in debt really need
two armies?
Gen. James F. Amos, the Ma-
rine Corps commandant, says
that misses the real point. He ar-
gues the Marines, while willing
and able to operate from dug-in
positions on land, are uniquely
equipped and trained to do much
more. They can get to any crisis,
on land, at sea or in the air, on a
moments notice.
He is eager to see the Iraq and
Afghanistan missions completed
sothe Marines canreturntotheir
traditional role as an expedition-
ary force.
We need to get back to our
bread and butter, Amos told Ma-
rines Nov. 23 at Camp Lawton, a
U.S. special operations base inAf-
ghanistans Herat province.
That begins, he said, with
moves such as returning to a pat-
tern of continuous rotations of
Marines to the Japanese island of
Okinawa, homeof the3rdMarine
Division formed in the early days
of World War II. The rotation of
infantry battalions to Okinawa
was interrupted by the Iraq war.
After the March 2003 invasion,
that war evolved into a bigger,
costlier and longer-lasting coun-
terinsurgency campaign than the
Pentagon or the Marines had an-
ticipated.
Amos says he plans to begin
lining up infantry battalion rota-
tions for Okinawa evenbefore the
2014 target date for ending U.S.
combat in Afghanistan.
Another element of this return-
to-our-roots approach is the deci-
sion announced in late Novem-
ber to rotate Marines to Australia
for training with Australian
forces from an Australian army
base in Darwin, beginning in
2012.
As we draw down (troops in
Afghanistan) and we reorient the
Marine Corps, it will be primarily
to the Pacific, Amos told Marine
aviators at a U.S. base in Kanda-
har, Afghanistan, noting as an
aside that he doubted any of
them had ever deployed to the
Pacific. He added that Marines
will remainpresent inthe Persian
Gulf area and elsewhere as re-
quired, but not in Iraq or Afghan-
istan.
Versatility is the key tokeeping
the Marines relevant to U.S. na-
tional security requirements, he
says.
Werenot aone-trickpony, he
said. Were the ultimate Swiss
army knife.
The decade of war after the
Sept. 11attacks began for the Ma-
rines in late November 2001with
an airborne assault on al-Qaida
leader Osama bin Ladens turf in
southern Afghanistan.
A month later, the Taliban,
whichhadprovidedhavenfor bin
Laden as al-Qaida plotted the
Sept. 11 attacks, were routed and
the war seemed largely over. It
was not until 2010 that the Ma-
rines returned in large numbers
to Afghanistan, where fighting
had evolved into a stalemate.
By late 2002, the Marines were
preparingfor another landwar, in
Iraq. In March 2003 the Marines
pushed north from Kuwait along
with the Armys 3rd Infantry Di-
vision, for the main assault on
Baghdad. This war, too, seemed
to be over within a few months.
The Marines left Iraq in Sep-
tember 2003. But an insurgency
took hold that fall and in March
2004 the Marines returned.
The Marines death toll in Iraq
was 1,022, nearly one-quarter of
the U.S. total, according toPenta-
gonstatistics. Thus far inAfghan-
istan at least 376 Marines have
died.
For both wars combined, the
Marines had the highest death
rate among the four major servic-
es, 0.47 percent of all Marines
who served in the two countries.
That compares with 0.38 percent
for the Army, which played the
dominant ground combat role.
Marines had by far the highest
rate of wounded in action for
both wars combined: 4.28 per-
cent, comparedwith2.75percent
for the Army.
With an eye on the postwar
outlook, Amos came into his job
as the commandant in 2010 in-
tending to slim down his force
and shed some of its ground-ori-
ented capabilities. He has devel-
oped a plan to reduce the service
from its current total of 202,000
Marines to 186,800, and perhaps
even fewer because of additional
budget pressures.
Amos says he is determined to
shape a postwar force that is
smaller and better equipped for
flexible duty.
He plans to reduce the number
of infantry battalions from 27 to
24, shed some artillery and ar-
mored vehicles and reduce the
number of flying squadrons from
70to61. The idea is a force whose
forte is pop-up crises such as the
Libya mission, as well as power
projection, which the Marines
do by keeping expeditionary
forces aboard Navy ships in Asia,
the Mideast and elsewhere.
Corps tries to return to its traditional role as a versatile expeditionary force and be focused on Asia-Pacific region

Occupy Bethlehem demon-
strators say the city has informed
them that their protest is illegal
and they fear police will soon try
to remove them from the spot
theyve been camping out at
since October.
About a half-dozen of the pro-
testers sat in a circle by their
tents near City Hall on Sunday,
filling out a permit they hope will
allow them to stay. They said
theyre fearful police will raid
their camp and try to remove
them before they hand in the ap-
plication Monday morning.
Its been very tense waiting all
weekend, trying to plan, said 25-
year-old Rebecca Potylycki, an
unemployed protester who said
she is on disability.
In a Friday violation notice to
the group, which has been dem-
onstrating at the citys tea garden
near City Hall and next to the li-
brary off East Church Street, Be-
thlehemofficials said Occupy Be-
thlehem has ignored multiple re-
quests to fill out an application
and therefore Occupy Bethlehem
must now cease any and all ac-
tivities which are in violation of
the ordinances of the city of Be-
thlehem and the law of the com-
monwealth of Pennsylvania.
It says Occupy Bethlehem was
notified of the need to apply for a
permit on Nov. 5 and has been
given extensions.
The notice says the city has
been extremely generous and
forgiving regarding OBs ongoing
violations, including not apply-
ing for a permit and theft of elec-
tricity. The city says it has also re-
ceived complaints that members
of the group have been drinking,
using drugs and urinating in pub-
lic.
The public library has also re-
ceived complaints from citizens
about OB activity disturbing the
peaceful use of the library, says
the letter, sent to The Morning
Call from an Occupy Bethlehem
supporter.
Bethlehem officials, including
Mayor John Callahan, did not im-
mediately return messages seek-
ing comment Sunday.
Protester Gary Antrim, 22, of
Bethlehem said the groups gen-
eral assembly voted to apply for
a permit and would propose the
completed permit at a meeting
Sunday night.
The movement is part of the
Occupy Wall Street demonstra-
tion that began in New York and
quickly spreadtocities across the
county, including Allentown.
The demonstrators are protest-
ing corporate greed and govern-
ment corruption. While thats the
general theme, protesters focus
on different topics they think
need to be addressed by society.
Kris Paynter, 21, who has been
homeless for the past 18 months,
said he wants to spread the idea
of the government focusing on
food not bombs.
Paynter saidif the U.S. worried
more about providing food and
shelter to the homeless and less
about war, thecountrywouldbea
better place.
Potylycki, who studied social
services, thinks the government
should focus on providing more
services for people with mental
health issues.
People are upset and want
change but they have a different
idea of what that change should
be, she said.
Summit Hill activist and Occu-
py Bethlehem supporter Shireen
Parsons, who alerted the media
of the violation notice, says the
Bethlehem protesters shouldnt
have toapply for a permit todem-
onstrate.
The government does not
give us rights. We have rights
from birth, she said.
Parsons said the protesters
have been immaculately clean.
Theyre peaceful and respect-
ful, she said.

ISLAMABAD Battered by
Pakistani military operations and
U.S. drone strikes, the once-for-
midable Pakistani Taliban has
splintered into more than 100
smaller factions, weakenedandis
running short of cash, according
to security officials, analysts and
tribesmen from the insurgent
heartland.
The group, alliedwithal-Qaida
and based in the northwest close
to the Afghan border, has been
behind much of the violence tear-
ing apart Pakistan over the last 4
1/2 years. Known as the Tehrik-e-
Taliban, or TTP, the Talibanwant
to oust the U.S.-backed govern-
ment and install a hard-line Isla-
mist regime. They also have in-
ternational ambitions and
trained the Pakistani-American
who tried to detonate a car bomb
in New York Citys Times Square
in 2010.
Today, the command struc-
ture of the TTP is splintered,
weak and divided and they are
running out of money, saidMan-
sur Mahsud, a senior researcher
at the FATA (Federally Adminis-
tered Tribal Area) Research Cen-
ter. In the bigger picture, this
helps the army and the govern-
ment because the Taliban are
now divided.
The first signs of cracks within
the Pakistani Taliban appeared
after its leader, Baitullah Meh-
sud, was killedina drone strike in
August 2009, Mahsud said. Since
then, the group has steadily dete-
riorated.
Set up in 2007, the Pakistani
Taliban is an umbrella organiza-
tion created to represent roughly
40 insurgent groups in the tribal
belt plus al-Qaida-linked groups
headquartered in Pakistans east-
ern Punjab province.
In the different areas, leaders
are making their own peace talks
with the government, Mahsud
added. It could help the Pakista-
ni government and military sep-
arate more leaders from the TTP
and more foot soldiers fromtheir
commanders.
The two biggest factors ham-
mering away at the Talibans uni-
ty are U.S. drone strikes and Pa-
kistani army operations in the
tribal region.
Turf wars have flared as mili-
tants fleeing the Pakistani mili-
tary operations have moved into
territory controlled by other mil-
itants, sometimes sparkingclash-
es between groups. And as lead-
ers have been killed either by
drones or the Pakistani army,
lieutenants have fought among
themselves over who will replace
them.
The disintegration ... has ac-
celerated with the Pakistan mili-
tary operation in South Waziris-
tan and the drone attacks by the
United States in North Waziris-
tan, Mahsud said, referring to
the two tribal agencies that are
the heartland of the Pakistani Ta-
liban.
Another factor is the divide-
and-conquer strategy Pakistans
military has long employed in its
dealings with militants. Com-
manders have broken away from
the TTPand set up their own fac-
tions, weakening the organiza-
tion. Battles have broken out
among the breakaway factions,
and in one particularly remote
tribal regionthe TTPwas thrown
out. These growing signs of fis-
sures among the disparate
groups that make up the Pakista-
ni Taliban indicate the militarys
strategy could be paying off.
That would explain the mixed
signals this month coming out of
the tribal belt, where some mili-
tants are mulling the idea of
peace talks with the government,
others are offering to stop fight-
ing and still others are disavow-
ing both peace and a cease-fire. It
might also explain a steady de-
cline in suicide attacks in Pakis-
tan, according to the privately
run Pak Institute for Peace Stud-
ies.
The U.S. is eager to see some
benefits inneighboringAfghanis-
tan, where its troops have come
under attack from militants
based across the border in Pakis-
tan. NATO forces in Afghanistan
are trying to break the back of the
Afghan insurgency before the
end of the U.S.-led coalitions
combat mission in 2014.
There is no evidence so far that
fissures within the militant struc-
ture in Pakistan are helping NA-
TO and U.S. forces.
The deadly Haqqani network,
which has bases both in Pakistan
and Afghanistan and is affiliated
with al-Qaida, is one of the most
lethal threats to coalition troops.
It has longfoundsafe haveninPa-
kistans tribal belt and has used
the Pakistani Taliban as a source
of recruits. Senior U.S. officials
say the Haqqanis also receive
support from Pakistans army
and intelligence agency, a charge
Islamabad denies.
Analysts predict that over
time, however, the internecine
feuding in the Pakistani Taliban
will take a toll on militants fight-
ing in Afghanistan, making it in-
creasingly difficult for them to
find recruits and restricting terri-
tory available to them.
Pakistans military has re-
buffed appeals from Washington
to take on all of the insurgent
groups inthetribal region, saying
it has neither the men nor the
weapons to do so. Instead, Isla-
mabadhas pushedits divide-and-
conquer approach, which is gain-
ing some traction in the United
States, according to two Western
officials in the region.
The officials say the success of
this approachwill be measuredin
Washington by its ability to curb
Haqqani network attacks in Af-
ghanistan. The officials request-
ed to remain anonymous in order
to speak candidly.
Cooperation between the U.S.
and Pakistan suffered a serious
setback a week ago when NATO
aircraft killed 24 Pakistani sol-
diers at two border posts.
Officials: Taliban in Pakistan splintering into factions
Security officials say the
group has weakened and is
running short of cash.

Editorial
Obama has done better for tribes
than the others, except for the
Nixon administration.
Ben Nighthorse Campbell
The former Republican senator from Colorado
recently assessed the current administrations track
record on issues impacting Native Americans. President Obama met last
week in Washington with the nations 565 tribal leaders.
SEVENTY YEARS ago this
Wednesday, a wave of Japa-
nese war planes swooped
over Americas chief Pacific
Naval base at Pearl Harbor
and dropped their armor-
piercing bombs on Battle-
ship Row. The attack sank four U.S. battle-
ships, destroyed 188 aircraft and claimed the
lives of 2,402 Americans.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt called it a
date which will live in infamy when he ap-
peared on Capitol Hill the following day.
Known as the Infamy Speech, Roosevelts
address induced Congress to pass a formal
declaration of war against Japan, bringing the
United States into World War II.
It also allowed FDR to fulfill critical in-
ternational obligations he had been unable to
address because of the isolationist sentiment
that had previously existed in the United
States.
Throughout the 1930s, Japan had been
steadily encroaching on China in a quest to
control all of Asia. After Japan joined the
triple alliance with Germany and Italy in
September 1940, it began to expand into
northern Indochina.
Alarmed by the invasion, the United States,
which supplied more than half of Japans iron,
steel and oil, placed an embargo on aviation
fuel, scrap metal, steel and iron. Then, in July
1941, Japan seized the rest of Indochina.
FDR responded by closing the Panama
Canal to Japanese shipping and adding oil to
the embargo list. As president, he was com-
pelled to retain an open door for U.S. trade
in Asia. As a leader of the free world, Roose-
velt had a moral obligation to keep the Asian
mainland free of foreign domination at a time
when U.S. credibility already was waning
abroad.
Roosevelt was aware of the atrocities being
committed by Nazi Germany in the concen-
tration camps of Europe. Yet the isolationist
sentiment that prevailed on Capitol Hill and
among the American people forced him to
remain idle as Britain and France, longtime
allies, shouldered the burden fighting a war
against fascism.
Haunting memories of the First World War
and the 116,708 American soldiers who died
in battle made many Americans wary of get-
ting involved in another European conflict.
Congress rejection of the League of Nations
was a testimony to the American refusal to
become embroiled in foreign wars.
The Great Depression reinforced isolation-
ist sentiment. Most Americans were more
concerned with day-to-day survival and the
need to improve life in the United States than
advocating involvement in foreign disputes.
But the Japanese attack and Roosevelts
speech quickly eliminated both concerns.
The Infamy Speech was brief, running to
only six and a half minutes. Roosevelt pur-
posely kept the speech short, despite the
suggestion of Secretary of State Cordell Hull
that more time be given to a fuller explana-
tion of Japanese-American relations and the
lengthy but unsuccessful effort to find a
peaceful solution.
Instead, the brevity and wording of the
speech was intended to have a strong emo-
tional impact that would silence the isolation-
ist movement in America. Roosevelt empha-
sized that our people, our territory and our
interests are in grave danger and highlighted
reports of Japanese attacks in the Pacific
between Hawaii and San Francisco. If the
territory and waters of the continental United
States were viewed as being under direct
threat, isolationism would become an un-
sustainable course of action.
Appealing to the anger felt by Americans,
Roosevelt portrayed the United States as the
innocent victim of Japanese aggression and
duplicity. He insisted that the United States
was at peace with that nation and was still
in conversation with its government looking
toward the maintenance of peace in the Pacif-
ic at the time of the attack. But Japan had
been preparing for war all along.
FDRs greatest rhetorical device, however,
was his use of the infamy phrase in the first
line of the speech. His emphatic insistence
that posterity would forever endorse the
American view of the attack as unprovoked
and dastardly set the tone for the entire
speech, which became a statement on behalf
of the entire American people and their un-
bounded determination to prevail against the
enemy.
The Infamy Speech had the desired ef-
fect. With only one dissent, Congress granted
Roosevelts request to recognize the state of
war that existed between the United States
and Japan, and the wider isolationist move-
ment collapsed almost immediately. It is
considered one of the greatest American
political speeches of the 20th century.
FDRs Infamy Speech mobilized outraged public for war

Roosevelt purposely kept the speech short,

Japanese-American relations
T
HE LATEST friendly
fire incident in Pakis-
tan has plunged the
already strained rela-
tionship between the United
States and Pakistan to a new
low.
The feud over the U.S.-led
NATO cross-border air strikes
that killed at least 24 Pakistani
troops on Nov. 27 should
prompt Washington to reflect
upon its relationship with Isla-
mabad and its anti-terror strat-
egy in South Asia.
While the United States has
offered its condolences to Pa-
kistanandthe families of those
killed, this has not been
enough to quell Islamabads fu-
ry. In retaliation, the South
Asian country has shut off NA-
TO supply routes to Afghanis-
tan and ordered the United
States to vacate one of the air
bases that is used by U.S. intel-
ligence forces to launch drone
attacks against militants in Pa-
kistan.
True, the United States
needs to hunt down as many
extremists inthe regionas pos-
sible before it winds down its
operations in Afghanistan. But
it shouldkeepits military oper-
ations within international
norms.
Some voices heard in the
United States indicate there is
no guarantee that Washington
is willing to do more to mend
its fences with Islamabad. If
such a perspective becomes
the mainstream in U.S. policy,
both its cooperation with Pa-
kistan and its own interests in
the region will suffer.

EARS AFTER leaving
the White House,
President Bill Clinton
admitted that he mis-
sed his old job. If it were up to
me, I wouldnt have left but
this is a democracy, he said.
The late Egyptian president
Anwar El-Sadat, in a similar
moment of candor, admitted
that being in power was fun.
Human ambitions are the
same everywhere; but democ-
racies keep them in check,
whereas dictatorships give
them free rein.
Italian prime minister Silvio
Berlusconi and Greek prime
minister George Papandreou
both resigned in response to
public pressure. Berlusconi
stepped down after 51 failed
parliamentary attempts to
pass a vote of no-confidence on
his government. In his farewell
speech, he promisedto cooper-
ate fully with the new prime
minister, Mario Monti. Papan-
dreou also wished his succes-
sor, Lucas Papademos, thebest
of luck.
It is not that the two outgo-
ing prime ministers are unusu-
ally gracious, but the two men
both belong to a tradition in
which power changes hands in
a smooth manner.
In our part of the world,
things havetoturnuglywhena
man is asked to step down.
Why cant our leaders step
down in dignity instead of be-
ing removed in disgrace?

Y URGING THE ex-
pulsion of Britains am-
bassador, Irans parlia-
ment has provided a
vivid insight into the mindset of
the Islamic Republics leader-
ship. Their first thought as they
retreat further into isolation and
economic malaise is to credit
Britainwithprimeresponsibility
for all their problems.
For more than a century, Brit-
ish statecraft was indeed the
dominant factor in Iranian poli-
tics, causingthedownfall of lead-
ers who were thought to threat-
en Londons interests. But the
era when a string of Royal Navy
bases guaranteed that the Gulf
was a British lake ended several
generations ago. However, the
old men who misrule Iran still
claimtodetect aBritishhandbe-
hind every significant event.
Thelatest trigger for their sus-
picion appears to have been the
Treasurys (overdue) decision to
exclude Iran from transactions
with the U.K. financial system.
Meanwhile, another round of
United Nations sanctions is ap-
proaching as Irans efforts to ac-
quire nuclear weapons capabili-
ty become increasingly obvious.
While the regime might well
ignore the parliamentary vote, it
clearly believes that Britain will
be the guiding force behind this
diplomatic drive.
Perhaps we should rejoice in
thestatusthat all thisaccordsus.
Perceptioncanamount toreality
in international affairs, so the
fact that Iran vastly overesti-
mates our national power
should cause us to be more as-
sertive. And if Tehrans ossified,
brutal leaders regard us as their
foremost opponent: That is an
honor indeed.

D
espite the many good things Girl
Scouts of the USA offers our girls,
there are serious issues that should
concern Catholics and all pro-life people.
GSUSA is a primary member of the
World Association of Girl Guides and Girl
Scouts (WAGGGS). WAGGGS hosted a
United Nations event in 2010 at which
their delegates demanded accessible,
affordable and safe abortions should be
made part of the minimum packages of
sexual and reproductive health services.
Girl Scouts of the USA reportedly gives
WAGGGS more than $1.4 million yearly.
The Girl Scouts national convention
held recently in Houston featured at least
nine speakers who have ties to Planned
Parenthood or are abortion advocates.
There are an estimated 700,000 Catholic
members of the GSUSA. Most probably are
not aware they are supporting a global
agenda to bring sexual rights (abortion) to
our young people.

expectedto save about $400,000.
But in September, the Trust-
ees approved a new, three-year
contract for full-time faculty
members that promised an aver-
age annual raise of $1,981. For
167 full-time faculty, that calcu-
lates to a three-year total cost for
the college of almost $1 million.
Debate continues
Even the idea of offering Leary
a contract renewal sparked de-
bate. Some sitting Luzerne
County commissioners have said
any long-term commitments
should be made after the new
formof government a part-time
county council and a hired man-
ager takes effect and can eval-
uate its support of the college.
Discovery that LCCC Trustee
Mary Hinton no longer lived full-
time in Luzerne County sparked
more controversy last month,
with at least one county commis-
sioner questioning whether she
should continue serving on the
board. Hinton submitted her re-
signation, but it doesnt take ef-
fect until Wednesday, the day af-
ter the expected vote on Learys
contract renewal.
The county provides about
15.5 percent of LCCCs budget,
contributing $6.17 million this
year. About a third of the col-
leges $39.5 million budget
comes from the state, with a
third from student tuition and
the rest from federal grants.
Leary has asked the county for
$400,000 more next year. He also
repeated a request that the coun-
ty provide almost $2 million to
help repay a bond floated to cov-
er costs of capital projects.
All of this comes amid a nearly
5 percent drop in enrollment to
about 7,000 students after sev-
eral years of record growth.
Learys original four-year con-
tract expires this month, and
with scant comment the trustees
offered him a renewal, the terms
of which are under wraps until
todays vote. Leary has accepted
the contract, and it is up to the
board to approve it.
Association with LCCC
A Kingston native, Leary turn-
ed 60 this August and has spent
more than half his life working at
LCCC.
He began his career as an as-
sistant to the admissions direc-
tor in 1975, two years after grad-
uating from Kings College with
a bachelors degree in history
andpolitical science. He was first
appointed president of LCCC in
December of 2007, after serving
as interim president for a year
when his predecessor, Patricia
Donohue, resigned to take an-
other job.
He faced a budget crunch im-
mediately, thanks to a fiscal cri-
sis in the county books that
threatened the delay of millions
borrowed to help the college fi-
nance major expansion projects.
Leary also saw the sweeping
FBI corruption probe come to
LCCC, with agents seeking doc-
uments and asking questions in
May and August of 2009. No one
at LCCC has been charged with
crimes, but trustees were
thoughfor actions outside of that
role including former Pittston
Area School District Superin-
tendent Ross Scarantino and for-
mer Luzerne County Commis-
sioner Greg Skrepenak.
Both pleaded guilty to corrup-
tion charges.
Jeffrey Piazza, the son of for-
mer Trustee August Piazza, was
also caught in the corruption
probe and pleaded guilty to ac-
tion related to his job at Wilkes-
Barre Area Career and Technical
Center.
The corruption connections
cropped up anew when adminis-
trators were axed this year.
Among those cut were Jeffrey
Piazzas wife, Michelle McCabe,
director of the Substance Abuse
Education and Training Institute
founded at the urging of Skrepe-
nak, and human resources gener-
alist Sandra Richards, wife of for-
mer county human resource di-
rector Doug Richards, who
pleaded guilty to corruption
charges.
Leary has managed to navi-
gate through these troubled wa-
ters with enough trustee support
to have a chance at contract re-
newal. When news of contract
negotiations surfaced in Octo-
ber, Trustee President Joseph
Rymar said Leary has done a
good job for the college and we
will continue to discuss his per-
formance with him.

In 2011, Luzerne County Community College saw accreditation
probation, severe budget cuts from the state and scandal.
long-term savings will be signif-
icant.
Strelish also said CNG causes
much less wear and tear on an
engine than gasoline, so CNG
vehicles should last longer than
standard gasoline-engine vehi-
cles.
UGI spokesman Joe Swope
said a gasoline gallon equivalent
(gge) of CNG is about half to
two-thirds the cost of gasoline,
a very, very appealing alterna-
tive to gasoline, whichis selling
now for about $3.30 per gallon.
CNG is selling for about $2.13
per gge in State College right
now.
Swope said UGI has been ag-
gressively starting to pursue
fleets of vehicles in its service
area about converting to CNG
vehicles in the last six months to
a year. He said building a CNG
filling station to service a fleet is
the most expensive investment.
The only other fleet of CNG
vehicles operating with a filling
station in UGIs service area is
the River Valley Transit Author-
ity in Williamsport.
For this to become a wide-
spread venture, there has to be
some public policy support up-
front to make it really attrac-
tive, Swope said.
Strelish believes federal and/
or state government will offer
some kindof grant funding to as-
sist with the cost of building a
fueling station.
Im quite confident that be-
causewesit onsomeof thelarge-
st gas fields in the world, the
state will be willing to subsidize
it, he said.
John Krohn, spokesman for
Energy In Depth Northeast Mar-
cellus Initiative, said one of the
reasons the LCTAhas the oppor-
tunity to benefit from the CNG
option is the development of the
Marcellus Shale in Pennsylva-
nia.
It appears that for the fore-
seeable future, natural gas will
remain very affordable, not only
for a vehicle fuel, but for home
heating sources, too, Krohn
said.

The cuts, now being finalized,
would close roughly 250 of the
nearly 500 mail processing cen-
ters across the country as early as
next March. Because the consoli-
dations typically would lengthen
thedistancemail travels frompost
office to processing center, the
agency also would lower delivery
standards for first-class mail that
have been in place since1971.
Currently, first-class mail is sup-
posed to be delivered to homes
and businesses within the conti-
nental U.S. in one day to three
days. That will lengthen to two
days to three days, meaning mail-
ers no longer could expect next-
day delivery in surrounding com-
munities. Periodicals could take
between two days and nine days.
About 42 percent of first-class
mail is now delivered the follow-
ing day. An additional 27 percent
arrives in two days, about 31 per-
cent in three days and less than 1
percent in four days to five days.
After the change next spring,
about 51 percent of all first-class
mail is expected to arrive in two
days, with most of the remainder
delivered in three days.
The consolidation of mail proc-
essing centers is inadditionto the
planned closing of about 3,700 lo-
cal post offices. In all, roughly
100,000 postal employees could
becut as aresult of thevarious clo-
sures, resulting in savings of up to
$6.5 billion a year.
Expressing urgency to reduce
costs, Postmaster General Patrick
Donahoe said in an interviewthat
the agency has to act while wait-
ingfor Congresstogrant it author-
itytoreducedeliverytofivedays a
week, raise stamp prices and re-
duce health care and other labor
costs.
The Postal Service, an inde-
pendent agency of government,
does not receive tax money, but is
subject to congressional control
on large aspects of its operations.
The changes in first-class mail de-
livery can go into place without
permission fromCongress.
After five years in the red, the
post office faces imminent default
thismonthona$5.5billionannual
payment to the Treasury for reti-
ree health benefits. It is projected
to have a record loss of $14.1 bil-
lion next year amid steady de-
clines in first-class mail volume.
Donahoehassaidtheagencymust
make cuts of $20billionby2015to
be profitable.
It already has announced a 1-
cent increase in first-class mail to
45 cents beginning Jan. 22.
Separate bills that have passed
House and Senate committees
would give the Postal Service
more authority and liquidity to
stave off immediate bankruptcy.
But prospects are somewhat dim
for final congressional action on
those bills anytime soon, especial-
ly if the measures are seen in an
election year as promoting layoffs
and cuts to neighborhood post of-
fices.
Technically, the Postal Service
must await an advisory opinion
from the independent Postal Reg-
ulatory Commission before it can
beginclosinglocal post officesand
processingcenters. But suchopin-
ionsarenonbinding, andDonahoe
is making clear the agency will
proceed with reductions once the
opinion is released next March.
The Postal Service initially an-
nounced in September it was
studying the possibility of closing
the processing centers and pub-
lished a notice in the Federal Reg-
ister seeking comments. Within
30 days, the plan elicited nearly
4,400 public comments, mostly in
opposition.
Maine Sen. Susan Collins, the
top Republican on the Senate
committee that oversees the post
office, believes the agency is tak-
ing the wrong approach. She says
service cuts will only push more
consumers to online bill payment
or private carriers such as UPS or
FedEx, leading to lower revenue
in the future.
She urged passage of a bill that
would refund nearly $7 billion the
Postal Service overpaid into a fed-
eral retirement fund, encourage a
restructuring of health benefits
and reduce the agencys annual
payments into a retiree health ac-
count.
In the event of a shutdown due
to bankruptcy, private companies
suchas FedExandUPScouldhan-
dle a small portion of the material
the post office moves, but they do
not go everywhere. No business
has shown interest in delivering
letters everywhere in the country
for aset rateof 44centsor 45cents
for a first-class letter.

Play it again, LSU and Alaba-
ma.
The Crimson Tide edged out
Oklahoma State in the final
round of voting Sunday and will
play the top-ranked Tigers in the
BCS national championship
game on Jan. 9 in New Orleans.
Undefeated LSU is the only
team to beat Alabama all year,
and the top BCS official sees a
do-over as a perfectly good title
game.
Absolutely, if theyre 1 and 2,
and they are in all the polls re-
leased today, executive director
Bill Hancock said.
Still, its not exactlya gamethe
public was clamoring for at
least outside of Southeastern
Conference territory. And it will
do nothing to quiet the critics of
the Bowl Championship Series
or the calls for a college football
playoff.
But like it or not, the BCS has
ensuredthat the SEChome to
both schools will run its
streak of national champion-
ships to six in a row.
The Cowboys made a late
surge by beating Oklahoma 44-
10 on Saturday night, and closed
the gap between themselves and
Alabama in the polls. But it was
not enough to avoid the first title
game rematch in the 14-year his-
tory of the BCS.

NATI ONAL FOOTBAL L L EAGUE: WEEK 1 3
EASTRUTHERFORD, N.J.
The stadium was rocking, and
thepossibilities for theNewYork
Giants were delicious.
Theyd just tied the Green Bay
Packers yes, the undefeated,
defending champion Packers
with 58 seconds remaining Sun-
day night. Their only competi-
tionfor the NFC
East title, the
Cowboys, had
lost at Arizona.
A Giants vic-
tory would
erase their defi-
cit behind Dal-
las, and would
snap Green
Bays winning
streak at 17, 11
this season. Just
stop Aaron
Rodgers andthe
Packers dy-
namic offense,
get the game to
overtime, and
perhaps pull off
a season-defining win.
Instead, Rodgers marched his
team 68 yards in five plays, Ma-
son Crosby kicked a 31-yard field
goal as time expired, and the
Packers won 38-35, clinching a
playoff berth.
When you get a chance to
knock out the champ, you got to
knock him out, defensive end
Justin Tuck said. You cant let
them hang around and fight off
the ropes.
Youve got to knock him out.
Theres a reason theyve won 18
straight.
And there are lots of reasons
the Giants (6-6) have lost four in
a row, from inconsistent offense
to a porous secondary to a diffi-
cult schedule that doesnt get
any easier with a trip to Dallas
next Sunday and concludes
onNewYears Day withthe Cow-
boys at the Meadowlands.
Still, one game in back of the
Cowboys and having pushed the
Packers (12-0) to the limit, the
Giants shouldnt be hanging
their heads.
Aloss is a loss, no matter how
it comes. Its just a better feeling
than the previous one (Saints),
Tuck said, referring to a 49-24
rout inNewOrleans last Monday
night. As long as we play with
passion, I dont see why we cant
be inthe playoffs. But weve got a
lot of work to do before we

Run the ball. Create turn-

cial teams helps. So does having
a quarterback who knows what
hes doing when the games
dwindle to a precious few.
Its a formula the defending
AFC champions have used for
years. It has rarely looked as ef-
fective as it did in a 35-7 win
Sunday.

STANDINGS, STATS
MINNEAPOLIS Tim
Tebow led yet another late
rally, passing for a season-best
202 yards and two third-quar-
ter touchdowns to help the
Denver Broncos win their fifth
straight game with a 35-32
victory over the Minnesota
Vikings.
Matt Prater kicked two field
goals in the final 93 seconds for
the Broncos (7-5), who moved
into a first-place tie in the AFC
West with a loss by the Oak-
land Raiders. Christian Ponder
set Minnesotas single-game
rookie record with 381 yards
passing, including a pair of
touchdowns to Percy Harvin,
but his sideline throw with 1:33
remaining was intercepted by
Andre Goodman to set up the
winner.
Harvin had a career-high 156
yards for the Vikings (2-10),
who lost their fourth in a row.
Saints 31, Lions 17
NEW ORLEANS Drew
Brees passed for 342 yards and
three touchdowns, and the
New Orleans Saints won their
fourth straight.
Brees performance gave him
4,031 yards on the season,
making him the first quarter-
back in NFL history to eclipse
the 4,000-yard mark in the first
12 games of a season.
Cardinals 19, Cowboys 13
GLENDALE, Ariz. LaRod
Stephens-Howling caught a
short pass from Kevin Kolb and
zipped 52 yards for a touch-
down in overtime, snapping
the Cowboys four-game win-
ning streak.
It marked the third time
since 2008 that the Cowboys
have lost in Arizona in excru-
ciating fashion.
Stephens-Howling dodged a
host of would-be Cowboys
tacklers to scamper in with the
score. Kolb completed 16 of 25
for 247 yards in his first game
in five weeks.
Texans 17, Falcons 10
HOUSTON Rookie T.J.
Yates threw a touchdown pass
in his first NFL start, Arian
Foster rushed for 111 yards and
Houston overcame another
hamstring injury to Andre
Johnson.
The Texans (9-3) have won a
franchise-record six straight
games, a remarkable feat con-
sidering theyre down to their
third-string quarterback and
have played the bulk of their
streak without their star receiv-
er. Johnson left in the third
quarter after hurting his left
hamstring. He injured his right
hamstring in Week 4 and sat
out six games.
49ers 26, Rams 0
SAN FRANCISCO Frank
Gore ran San Francisco right
into the playoffs, becoming the
49ers career rushing leader in
a shutout that wrapped up the
franchises first NFC West
crown and postseason berth
since 2002.
Alex Smith threw second-
half touchdowns of 52 and 56
yards to Michael Crabtree and
Kyle Williams and David Akers
kicked four field goals for San
Francisco (10-2) as coach Jim
Harbaugh joined George Seif-
ert (1989) and Steve Mariucci
(1997) as the only rookie
coaches in 49ers history to win
the division.
Patriots 31, Colts 24
FOXBOROUGH, Mass.
Rob Gronkowski caught two
touchdown passes then scored
on a lateral and New England
then withstood a fourth-quar-
ter rally to keep Indianapolis
winless.
Trailing 31-3, the Colts ral-
lied with a touchdown run by
Donald Brown and two scoring
passes from Dan Orlovsky to
Pierre Garcon, the last a 40-
yarder with 36 seconds to go.
But Deion Branch recovered
the onside kick and Tom Brady
took a knee on the final play.
Dolphins 34, Raiders 14
MIAMI Reggie Bush
rushed for 100 yards and a
touchdown and once-woeful
Miami won for the fourth time
in the past five games.
Matt Moore had a hand in
two TDs for Miami, and Kevin
Burnett returned an intercep-
tion 34 yards for a score.
Titans 23, Bills 17
ORCHARD PARK, N.Y.
Chris Johnson rushed for 153
yards and two touchdowns as
Tennessee remained in the
playoff chase.
Johnson scored on runs of 48
and 4 yards to match his sea-
son touchdown total. It was his
third 100-yard rushing game in
four outings.
Chiefs 10, Bears 3
CHICAGO Tyler Palko
shook off two miserable starts
and threw for 157 yards and a
touchdown even though he
was briefly lifted for Kyle Or-
ton.
Orton came on to start the
second quarter and immediate-
ly left the game with an injured
finger on his right hand. Palko
connected with Dexter
McCluster on a wild 38-yard
pass to end the first half on a
ball that got deflected by Brian
Urlacher and Chris Conte,
giving the Chiefs a 7-3 lead and
their first touchdown in three
games.
Jets 34, Redskins 19
LANDOVER, Md. Mark
Sanchez hit Santonio Holmes
for a 30-yard touchdown pass
with 4:49 to play, and Shonn
Greene added a pair of insur-
ance scores.
It was Sanchezs 10th career
fourth-quarter comeback or
overtime victory, including
playoffs, and his second in as
many weeks.
The win improves the Jets to
7-5 and keeps them in the hunt
for an AFC playoff berth.
New York played another
mistake-filled game and had
only 168 total yards after three
quarters. They trailed 16-13
after Washingtons Graham
Gano made his third field goal
with 7:52 remaining.
Ravens 24, Browns 10
CLEVELAND Ray Rice
rushed for a career-high 204
yards, breaking loose on a
game-changing 67-yarder in
the third quarter, and the Rav-
ens kept pace with Pittsburgh
atop the AFC North.
Rice and Ricky Williams had
short touchdown runs and
Lardarius Webb returned a
punt 68 yards for a TD for the
Ravens (9-3), who toyed with
the Browns (4-8). Baltimore
racked up 290 yards rushing.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla.
Even with two losing teams
that are all but eliminated from
playoff contention, there is no
shortage of story lines for to-
nights game between slump-
ingSanDiegoandreelingJack-
sonville.
The Chargers (4-7) have lost
six in a row after an uncharac-
teristicallyfaststart. PhilipRiv-
ershasmoreturnoversthrough
11 games than he had in any of
his previous sevenseasons. His
makeshift offensive line proba-
bly will be without left tackle
Brandyn Dombrowski, who
has been filling in for injured
Pro Bowler Marcus McNeil.
And speculation about coach
Norv Turners future has be-
come more prevalent than talk
about a newstadium.
The Jaguars (3-8) have en-
dured the newsiest week in the
franchises 17 seasons. Owner
Wayne Weaver firedcoachJack
Del Rio on Tuesday and an-
nounced he has agreed to sell
the team. He also gave general
manager Gene Smith a three-
year contract extension, put-
ting himincharge of the coach-
ing search.
Interim coach Mel Tucker
fired receivers coach Johnny
Cox, reassigned quarterbacks
coach Mike Sheppard, waived
startingreceiver JasonHill and
changed the tempo of practic-
es. The Jaguars also put three
more players on injured re-
serve, giving them a league-
high 20 guys done for the sea-
son.
All those angles could over-
shadowthe game.
Ive never experienced any-
thing like this, Jaguars tight
end Marcedes Lewis said. Ive
never even heard of anything
like this. Its crazy, but it cant
make anything worse, right?
Theresonlyonedirectiontogo
fromhere.
The Chargers feel the same
way.
They have their longest los-
ing streak since dropping nine
straight between the end of the
2002 season and the beginning
of the 2003 seasons.
Rivers inconsistency and
significant injuries have been
the main culprits, which have
left the Chargers three games
behind Oakland with five to
play.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. The
Fiesta Bowl will havea marquee
matchup inits first post-scandal
game: No. 3 Oklahoma State vs.
No. 4 Stanford.
The Fiesta Bowl had a dud of
a game last year and nearly lost
its BCSstatus after aninvestiga-
tion into financial improprie-
ties.
Bowl organizers worked hard
to restore its image and landed
a golden game of the Cardinal
and the Cowboys.
Oklahoma State (11-1) fell
just short in its national cham-
pionship bid, finishing third in
the final BCS standings.
Stanford (11-1) lost its chance
toplayfor thenational titlewith
a loss to Oregon, but will be
playing in a BCS bowl for the
second straight season.
The Jan. 2 game also will in-
clude two premier quarter-
backs: Brandon Weeden of Ok-
lahoma State andStanfords An-
drew Luck.
Last season, the Fiesta Bowl
was left with a so-so matchup
between Oklahoma and Con-
necticut.
The concern heading in was
that it would be a blowout and
that UConn, being so far away,
wouldnt travel very well.
Both happened.
Oklahoma won in a rollover,
48-20, and Huskies fans didnt
travel, the school selling just
5,000 of its required17,500 tick-
ets. The University of Phoenix
Stadiumwas about 6,000 below
capacity and fans werent too
excited to watch it on TV, ei-
ther, with ratings down 22 per-
cent from the year before.
The 2012 game had the po-
tential to be best BCS bowl out-
side the national championship
game.
It was all going to depend on
the poll voters and the compli-
cated BCS rankings.
If projections held up and
LSU met Alabama in a rematch
betweenSECpowers, theFiesta
figured to get its dream match-
up of Oklahoma State and Stan-
ford. Had Oklahoma State
vaulted over the Crimson Tide
to No. 2 in the BCS, well, the
Fiesta Bowl would be left to
scramble for someone to face
Stanford.
The Fiesta got its fiesta,
though Oklahoma State isnt
too thrilled about it.
Its not for any disdain for the
Fiesta. Its just that the Cow-
boys believed they deserved a
shot at the national champion-
ship game.
They had a good argument.
Oklahoma State won it first
outright conference title since
1948 in the three-team Mis-
souri Valley and ended the
season with a statement, rout-
ing rival Oklahoma 44-10 Satur-
day night.
The Cowboys had more qual-
ity wins than Alabama but took
a bighit witha double-overtime
loss to6-6 Iowa State twoweeks
ago.
Still, the Cowboys believed
their one-loss season was as
good as Alabamas and said the
Tide already had its shot at the
top-ranked Tigers, losing 9-6 in
overtime last month in Tus-
caloosa, no less.
Oklahoma States loss could
be a gain for the Fiesta Bowl af-
ter a difficult year.
President John Junker was
fired in March for allowing ex-
cess spending, an apparent ille-
gal systemof political contribu-
tions and an effort to cover up
the problems.
The Fiesta Bowl kept its spot
in the BCS rotation, but was
placedona years probationand
fined $1 million.
The bowl hired former Uni-
versity of Arizona president
Robert Shelton as its executive
director and worked to repair
its image while overhauling
how the organization is run.
Landing two of college foot-
balls best teams for its 2012
game couldcertainly helpinthe
recovery process.
Oklahoma State andStanford
had seasons that rank among
the best in their histories, each
coming within a loss of playing
for a national championship.
Their offenses are among the
best in the country the Cow-
boys were No. 3 nationally into-
tal offense, the Cardinal 11
and have playmakers all over
the field.
And they have Weeden and
Luck.
Barelyanafterthought for the
Heisman Trophy at the start of
the season, Weeden inserted
himself into the conversation
with a stellar senior season.
A28-year-old who played five
years of professional baseball,
Weeden broke his own school
records with 4,328 yards pass-
ing and a completion rate of 72
percent. He also set single-sea-
son records for attempts (522)
and completions (379),
matched his record of 34 touch-
down passes and finished
fourth nationally with 352.75
yards of total offense per game.
Luck returned for his junior
season after finishing as the
runner-up to Heisman Trophy
winner Cam Newton last year.
The projected No. 1 overall
pick in the NFL draft, Luck
threw for 35 touchdowns this
season to break his school re-
cord of 32 a year ago and set the
Stanford career record of 80 TD
passes in just three years.

AP College Football Writer
The Tigers (13-0) beat the Tide
9-6 in overtime on Nov. 5 in Tus-
caloosa.
This could be a totally differ-
ent type of game, Alabama
coach Nick Saban said. Theres
so many good players on both
sides of the ball for both teams.
Theres so much opportunity
for this game to play out com-
pletely different and have a com-
pletely different flavor than the
first game.
Alabama (11-1) finishedsecond
in both the Harris and coaches
polls by a wide enough margin to
make up for the fact that Oklaho-
ma State was ahead in the com-
puter ratings.
The Cowboys (11-1), cham-
pions of the Big 12, will play in
the Fiesta Bowl against Stanford
from the Pac-12.
The other BCS matchups are:
Michiganvs. Virginia Techin
the Sugar Bowl
Clemson vs. West Virginia in
the Orange Bowl.
Oregon vs. Wisconsin in the
Rose Bowl.
No BCS busters made it into
the big money games this year,
teams such as Boise State, TCU
or Houston, which had a chance
but lost in the Conference USA
championship on Saturday to
Southern Mississippi. The Cou-
gars will now play Penn State,
which dropped to the Ticket City
Bowl in Dallas following the Jer-
ry Sandusky sex abuse scandal
that has overshadowed the Nitta-
ny Lions season.
As thepower-brokers incollege
football begin to plot how top-
tier bowls will be set up in the fu-
ture, the 2011 season is once
more exposing the flaws in the
current system.
Oklahoma State and Alabama,
two teams withperfectly goodar-
guments to play for a national
championship, wound up fight-
ingover one spot, withsubjective
voters and mysterious computer
ratings the formulas of which
are not even publicly known
doing the choosing.
Alabama, with the nations No.
1 defense, won out and will play
for its second BCS crown in three
years.
Oklahoma State, with one of
the most potent offenses in the
country, gets its first BCS appear-
ance as a consolation prize.
We wanted the opportunity to
settle the debate that has gone all
year about the offense in the Big
12 and the defense in the SEC,
Oklahoma State coach Mike
Gundy said on ESPN. It didnt
work out that way.
A rematch between LSU and
Alabama in the title game
seemed almost a foregone con-
clusion heading into conference
championship weekend.
But with Alabama idle, Okla-
homa State made one last, dra-
matic statement against the
Sooners on Saturday night in
Stillwater. And the Cowboys had
an impressive resume, beating
three teams ranked in the final
BCS top 15. Alabama had only
one such victory.
So instead of Sunday being a
coronation there was drama, and
another BCS controversy.
Working in Alabamas favor
was its dominance throughout
the season all of the Tides vic-
tories have been by at least 16
points andthe fact that no oth-
er team has challenged LSU this
season.

Six computer rankings are used to determine the overall computer component. The highest and lowest
ranking for each team is dropped, and the remaining four are added and divided to produce a Computer

losing the Conference USA
title game.
The No. 22 Lions and No.
19 Cougars will play at noon
on Jan. 2 at Cotton Bowl
Stadium in Dallas. ESPNU
will carry the broadcast. It
will be the first bowl game in
history pitting teams from
the Big Ten and Conference
USA.
While Houston (12-1) fell
to this odd game because of a
stunning loss on the field,
Penn State is this far off the
radar strictly for off-field
reasons.
Normally a darling of selec-
tion committees, the Lions
were passed on by bowl after
bowl in the wake of the Jerry
Sandusky scandal. Thats
how a 9-3 Penn State squad
falls behind Iowa (7-5), Ohio
State (6-6) and even North-
western (6-6) -- three teams
the Lions beat this season --
in the bowl hierarchy.
Needless to say, Penn State
players were not thrilled with
that development, voicing
their frustration on Twitter.
Senior captain Drew Asto-
rino was the only player sent
out publicly by the program,
doing a brief interview with
the Big Ten Network.
We feel a little disappoint-
ed we got passed up by some
teams we beat in the Big
Ten, Astorino said in one of
the bigger understatements
of the day. But were ready
for the challenge.
A Sunday evening tele-
conference with interim
coach Tom Bradley and bowl
president Tom Starr was
canceled because of technical
difficulties.
Any time youve got a
chance to play somebody
ranked higher than you and
youve got a chance to com-
pete, youre excited to play,
Bradley said on ESPNs bowl
selection show. Weve got a
bunch of competitors on our
team. All they ask is to play
somebody ranked and be able
to go out and prove what
theyre worth.
Last season, Penn States
considerable clout and fan
base got the team into a
higher slot than was de-
served, playing on New
Years Day in the Outback
Bowl.
But with the Sandusky case
still very much in the nation-
al conversation, bowl games
and their corporate sponsors
were scared off this time
around.
Sandusky, the former Penn
State defensive coordinator
who is charged with 40
counts of sexual abuse of
children, continues to do
high-profile interviews with
outlets such as NBC and the
New York Times.
With that as a backdrop,
five bowl games -- the Capital
One, Outback, Insight, Gator
and Meineke Car Care of
Texas -- said no thanks to
Penn State.
That gave the TicketCity
Bowl its shot.
Any discussion of the na-
tions top handful of great,
perennial college football
powerhouses always includes
Penn State University, Starr
said in a statement. Even
more importantly, Penn State
also is one of the top academ-
ic institutions in the country,
and because of those two
reasons, it is an honor and
quite humbling to have the
Nittany Lions participate in
our young game.
We believe our Penn
State-Houston matchup is
one of the best of this years
bowl lineup.
Indeed, Penn State man-
aged to at least draw an in-
triguing opponent in pass-
happy Houston.
The Cougars are led by
quarterback Case Keenum,
the most prolific quarterback
in major college football his-
tory. Keenum holds the FBS
career records for total of-
fense (19,572 yards), yards
passing (18,685) and touch-
down passes (152).
The sixth-year senior leads
the nation this season with
5,099 passing yards and 45
touchdowns while throwing
just five interceptions.
As a team, Houston ranks
first in the country in total
offense (599.0 ypg), scoring
offense (50.77 ppg) and pass-
ing offense (443.8 ypg).
Speculation around both
coaches will be rampant in
the coming weeks. Bradley
will interview for the perma-
nent job at Penn State while
Houstons Kevin Sumlin has
recently been linked to mul-
tiple higher-profile openings.
Penn State has played
Houston just twice before,
winning games in 1964 and
1977. The Lions have played
at the old Cotton Bowl three
times, going 2-0-1.
The TicketCity Bowl is in
its second year of existence.
The inaugural game featured
Texas Tech defeating North-
western 45-38.

The Seminoles and Fighting
Irish bring a high-powered
matchup to the Florida Citrus
Bowl thanks to a pair of second-
year coaches that have energized
their respective fan bases.
The schools have met sixtimes
previously with the Seminoles
holding a 4-2 edge. FSUalso beat

Irish (8-4)
onetimeover

contract.
The Seminoles (8-4), repre-
senting the Atlantic Coast Con-
ference, came into the year
trailed by talk of possibly making
a national title run. But after
some early and late-season stum-
bles, coach Jimbo Fisher is fo-
cused on ensuring his team ends
the year on a high note as it pre-
pares to reload this offseason.
Fisher said his team is already
embracing that mindset.
I think its a big thing of how
you finish, he said on a telecon-
ference Sunday night ....Its just
ending on a great note, no matter
what diversity you faced during
the season.
FSU is looking for its fourth
consecutive bowl victory and is
making its third appearance in
the Champs. FSUbeat Wisconsin
42-13 in the 2008 Champs and
beat Penn State in 1990 when it
was known as the Blockbuster
Bowl and playing in Miami.
The Irish (8-4) are making
their first trip to Orlando and is
looking for its second consecu-
tive bowl win after beating Mia-
mi in the Sun Bowl last season.
Anytime you open up the sea-
son, you always have high expec-
tations, Notre Dame coach
Brian Kelly said. Our football
teamhad high expectations com-
ingin. Whensome of things dont
go your way, you look towards se-
nior leaders and how theyre go-

the NL batting champion a
deal that includes a club option
for 2018 that would make the
contract worth $120 million,
the person said, speaking Sun-
day night on condition of ano-
nymity because the agreement
had not yet been announced.
Preparing to move into a
$515 million retractable-roof
ballpark, the Marlins have be-
come a driving force in the
free-agent market ahead of the
winter meetings, which start
Monday. Theyve also shown
interest in acquiring one of the
high-profile free-agent first
basemen: Prince Fielder or Al-
bert Pujols.
Reyes is following Francisco
Rodriguez and Carlos Beltran
out of New York, leaving David
Wright and Johan Santana as
the Mets last remaining stars.
Mets general manager Sandy
Alderson began hearing ru-
mors of the deal Sunday after-
noon.
If they are true, I think that
Jose at this point is beyond
where we would have been,
said Alderson, who spoke with
Reyes agents earlier in the
day. There was an indication
to me that things were moving.
Exactly how far. I didnt ask. I
didnt need to.
The 28-year-old Reyes won
the NL batting crown last sea-
son, becoming the first player
in Mets history to do it. He hit
.337 and also topped the
league with 16 triples, while al-
so stealing 39 bases.
Reyes is a four-time All-Star
and three-time stolen base
champion. But he has been
prone to injuries in recent sea-
sons, particularly to his
hamstrings. He has not played
more than 133 games in any of
the last three years.

fall to unranked foes
The Associated Press
talk about that. Im sick to my
stomach, but a win takes all that
away. I just hope all my team-
mates feel the same way.
Eli Manning does.
We did some really good
things, and theyre the best team
in football right now, Manning
said. I think we have to try to
take something from this game,
take some momentuminto these
next games.
Coincidentally, New York fell
38-35 to unbeaten New England
in the 2007 season finale, then
beat the Patriots in the Super
Bowl.
Hopefully, we can take that
same approach, Manning said.
Rodgers hit three passes of
more than 18 yards on the drive
in the final 58 seconds. That
came after New York tied the
game on Eli Mannings 2-yard
touchdown pass to Hakeem
Nicks and a 2-point conversion
run by D.J. Ware.
However, Rodgers, who threw
four touchdown passes, wasnt
going to settle for overtime after
a touchback on the ensuing kick-
off.
On first down, he hit Jermi-
chael Finley just over the out-
stretched hands of rookie line-
backer Jacquian Williams and
the tight end rumbled 24 yards
up the right sideline.
A 24-yard pass to Jordy Nelson
down the left sideline moved the
ball to the New York 29. An 18-
yard pass to Greg Jennings two
plays later got the ball to the 12.
Green Bay called time out with
3 seconds to go, and Crosby de-
livered.
Rodgers, who was harassed by
the Giants and sacked three
times, finished 28 of 46 for 369
yards. He threw touchdown pas-
ses of 7 and 13 yards to Donald
Driver, 20 to Jennings and 12 to
Finley.
Linebacker Clay Matthews al-
so returned an interception 38
yards for a score in the second
quarter.
Manning finished 23 of 40 for
347 yards. He had an early 67-
yard touchdown pass to Travis
Beckum and touchdown tosses
of 4 and 2 yards to Nicks. Bran-
don Jacobs scored on a1-yard run
after a rare interception of Rodg-
ers, and Lawrence Tynes kicked
two field goals, with a 50-yarder
in the fourth quarter getting New
York within 28-27.
Rodgers hooked up with Driv-
er on a 7-yard TD with 3:34 to go
to push the lead to 35-27.
However, Manning hit tight
end Jake Ballard on two 15-yard
passes and connected with Vic-
tor Cruz for 22 yards to set up the
tying score that New York
thought would send the game to
OT.
Rodgers had other ideas, and
the Packers continued their run
at trying to match Miamis per-
fect season in 1972.
Its not surprising New York
gave them a game. The Giants
ended the Denver Broncos per-
fect season at 11 games in 1998
and they knocked off the Patriots
in the Super Bowl in February
2008 when Tom Brady and com-
pany were a game from perfec-
tion.
The Giants let the Packers
knowearly they were going to be
in for a battle this week.
Manning and Beckum, who
had one catch all season, com-
bined on a 67-yard catch and
weaving run on the third play of
the game.
Rodgers tied the game with a
12-yard TD pass to Finley on
Green Bays second possession,
only to see New York take the
lead on a 38-yard field goal by
Tynes.
NewYork seemed to be in con-
trol until Manning made a mis-
take on a play-action pass on the
first play of the second quarter.
With his primary receiver cov-
ered, Manning threw a sideline
pass to Ahmad Bradshawin front
of the Packers bench. Matthews
jumped the route and returned it
38 yards for a touchdown and a
14-10 lead.

quarter to crush error-prone Cin-
cinnati.
Were in it now, linebacker
James Farrior said. Right nowis
our time. ... We already started
our playoffs.
It certainly looked like it as
Pittsburgh (9-3) swept the sea-
son series from Cincinnati (7-5)
for the second straight year to
end any realistic hopes the Ben-
gals have of winning the AFC
North.
Its tough, said Cincinnati
wide receiver A.J. Green, who
caught an 11-yard touchdown
pass but also committed a false
start penalty that wiped out an-
other score. We shot ourselves
in the foot sometimes. Being the
veteran team they are, they cap-
italized on everything we did.
Its what the Steelers do this
time of year.
Pittsburgh has been a mixed
bag at times this season, often
playing to the level of the compe-
tition, regardless of who it is.
The same team that handled
New England with ease six
weeks ago is the same one that
barely escaped woeful Kansas
City with a win last Sunday
night, raising concerns about
Roethlisbergers fractured right
thumb, the running game and a
defense nursing injuries to safety
Troy Polamalu (concussion) and
LaMarr Woodley (hamstring).
There were no anxious final
moments against the Bengals.
Pittsburghs best quarter of the
season left little room for doubt,
scoring four touchdowns in a
span of less than 12 minutes to
break it open.
Finally, Wallace said. We al-
ways make it harder than it has
to be. Today, we came out with a
lot of emotion and a lot of energy.
The guys just wanted to win. We
knew what we had to do. Its get-
ting closer to the playoffs and its
time for us to get better.
While the Bengals appear to be
getting worse.
Rookie quarterback Andy Dal-
ton passed for just 135 yards, was
sacked three times by Pittsburgh
linebacker James Harrison and
spent the fourth quarter on the
bench as a preventative measure
with the game out of reach.
We cant let this hurt us, Dal-
ton said. We cant let this affect
the next four.
Blocking it out might be
tough.
Cincinnati coach Marvin Le-
wis did little to downplay the
games importance, practically
admitting his teams hopes for an
outside shot at a divisional title
would all but disappear if his sur-
prising teamcouldnt earn a split
with the Steelers.
The Bengals hung tough in a
24-17 loss to Pittsburgh three
weeks ago, the kind of gritty per-
formance that gave them hope
they could earn a split with their
division rivals and stay alive in
their quest for a second division
title in three seasons.
No chance.
Thrust into the role of conten-
der, the Bengals wilted in the
spotlight, reverting back to the
kind of mistakes theyve avoided
while rebuilding on the fly be-
hind the tandem of Dalton and
Green. Cincinnati committed 10
penalties for 109 yards and of-
fered little resistance to lose for
the third time in four games.

tournament.
Woods made a 10-foot birdie
putt onthe final hole Sunday and
defeatedZachJohnson, the 2007
Masters champion, by one shot
to win his fifth Chevron World
Challenge title.
It feels awesome, said
Woods, who wore his signature
final-round red shirt underneath
a sleeveless black sweater. I
played well all week.
Woods, in fact, birdied the last
two holes in pulling off the win;
Johnson held a one-shot lead as
the two, playing together, teed
off on the 17th hole.
For Woods, who turns 36 on
Dec. 30, it was his first victory
since the Australian Masters on
Nov. 15, 2009.
Less than two weeks after that
win, Woods car accident un-
spooled a scandal of extramari-
tal affairs that made internation-
al headlines, promptedhimtore-
main in seclusion and skip his
charity tournament that year
and later caused an exodus of
many of Woods sponsors.
Woods eventually returned to
golf, and he finished second in
the Chevron World Challenge a
year ago after losing in a playoff
to Graeme McDowell.
But his progress toward be-
coming the Tiger Woods of old,
the one who won 71 PGA Tour
tournaments including14ma-
jors was impeded by knee and
Achilles tendon injuries and the
struggles of adapting to a new
swing. Once the perennial No. 1-
ranked player, Woods had drop-
ped to 52nd in the world rank-
ings.
In recent weeks, though,
Woods play and confidence
steadily had improved, and now
he has a win to validate the ef-
fort.
I knowits beena while (since
winning), but also for some rea-
son it feels like it hasnt, Woods
said.
WhenI was coming downthe
stretch there I felt so comfort-
able, he said. When the pres-
sure was on the last two holes, I
hit three of the best shots I hit all
week.
Woods and Johnson were tied
after the first nine holes Sunday,
and by then it was a two-man
tournament as most other con-
tenders faded.
Woods grabbed a two-shot ad-
vantage with birdies at the 10th
and 11 holes. But he gave one
shot back on the par-three 12th
when he pulled a six-iron shot in-
to a bunker and made bogey.
Johnson pulled even again
with a birdie at No. 13, then
seized the lead with another
birdie at the par-five 16th hole.
On the par-three 17th, Woods
made a 12-foot birdie putt, again
tying Johnson and setting up the
dramatics at the par-four 18th.
Johnson also had a birdie putt at
18, of about 16 feet, but it did not
drop.

Colder air is
heading our way
along with the
chance for some
showers and
urries this
week. This morn-
ing will be nice
temperature-
wise, but the
chance for show-
ers increases
toward the after-
noon and
evening hours.
We could see
some rain show-
ers Tuesday
morning. The
chance for show-
ers in the after-
noon will
become isolated.
Cooler air will
slowly start to
move in on
Wednesday with
mostly cloudy
skies and the
chance for show-
ers throughout
the day. Rain
may turn to
snow Wednesday
night and flur-
ries may contin-
ue into Thursday
morning. Friday
will be cold with
partly cloudy
skies.

NATIONAL FORECAST: A frontal boundary will continue to push across the eastern United States
today, promoting a chance of precipitation from the southern Plains to the Northeast. Look for show-
ers and thunderstorms near the Gulf Coast, with potentially heavy rainfall stretching across the

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I have
heard of interven-
tions for drug and al-
cohol addicts. Could
I stage one for my
daughter Aileens
addiction to texting
on her cellphone and
Facebook?
She and our grandson live with us
because her marriage broke up. I am
becoming the boys default mother
because Aileen is constantly texting
or spending hours on Facebook. Shell
say, I have to send a quick mes-
sage, then reappear an hour later. By
then, we have fed our grandson and
changed his diaper.
When I try to discuss this with
her, she says her work requires this
constant communication, but I know
it doesnt. There have been times
when Aileens feelings have been hurt
because her son doesnt want to go
someplace with her and prefers to
stay with us instead. I suspect that
he feels ignored when hes with her
because her thumb is constantly fly-
ing across her phone. How can we get
her to understand how this might be
making her child feel?
Fully Present in Arizona
Dear Fully Present: You could and
should stage an intervention with
your daughter. Aileen is neglect-
ing her son. Its a shame that before
couples are allowed to conceive that
they arent forced to take parenting
classes. The time she spends on Face-
book and texting is time she should
be interacting with him.
Because she is so easily distracted,
you and her father should declare
your home to be a digital-free zone
unless your grandson is napping or in
bed for the night. Consider making
discussions with the boys pediatri-
cian and perhaps parenting classes
a condition of her staying in your
home. She wont like it, but it would
be in your grandsons best interests.
Dear Abby: Im a male in my 60s
who has been active all my life and
still try to be. However, Im not deal-
ing with the aging process very well.
I have just been told that Im going to
lose my eyesight.
I have never been sick or hospital-
ized, no broken bones, no operations,
ate right and consider myself in great
health. But now I find myself taking
naps a lot and not wanting to social-
ize very much. I have to force myself
to do things.
I have always said one of these days
its going to start raining on me, and
then it will be over. I dont like this
attitude and Im a great believer in
faith. Any suggestions?
Male Reader in the USA
Dear Male Reader: I wish you had in-
cluded your address and phone num-
ber because I would have contacted
you personally. The first thing to do
is get a second opinion regarding
your vision loss. If the diagnosis is
confirmed, there are devices available
that can help some sight-impaired
people. There are also programs to
help you adjust to your vision loss
and live an independent and full life.
But you should start now.
Some of the symptoms you de-
scribe could be signs of depression.
Please consult your physician about
them. With counseling and medica-
tion, the rain in your life could be
reduced to a drizzle you can handle.
And hang on to your faith because it
will serve you well.

Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.
(Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Good liv-
ing becomes a rather simple and
straightforward process today.
Youll help others get what they
need when they need it, and
then youll appreciate the smiles
and happiness that follow.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The
ones who say you are only as
strong as your weakest attribute
are being unrealistic and pes-
simistic. No one can be good at
everything. Use your strengths,
and let the rest work itself out.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). To really
feel at home in a space, it must
afford you a good deal of pri-
vacy. Alone time is necessary to
your health and well-being, so
guard it like its sacred.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). You
are feeling spiritually open,
which will attract goodness to
you, but also will make you vul-
nerable to negative attachments.
Your best protection is to think
happy, high-minded thoughts.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Theres a
fog of poetic energy that settles
around you. The poet Lord Byron
said, Poetry is a distinct faculty
it wont come when called. You
may as well whistle for a wind.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
have to be able to feel a per-
sons intentions in order to
deem them trustworthy in your
book. Unpredictable and compli-
cated people will warrant further
observation. Take your time.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Many
times you follow through with an
action simply because you want
to know what will happen next.
Your motive will be simple, and
that is precisely why it works so
well.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). For you,
its not enough to merely show
up and do what youre supposed
to do. You will dedicate yourself
to taking things to the next level.
Youll inspire others to do the
same.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You will be affected by the deci-
sions of someone very far away
from you, but these decisions do
not have to throw you off your
path. Theres a way to make it all
work.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). In
games of good cop, bad cop,
you dont care which cop you
play. Its the end result getting
compliance from the perpetrator
that matters most to you. You
and a partner will work together
toward an optimum end.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). There
may be very little difference in
the structure of your day from
the way it was last week, but you
are different, and thats enough
to change everything.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You
know what you believe, and
articulating it will help you know
it even better. So make a record
of where you stand on this very
day.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Dec. 5).
January features exciting and
unusual interactions. You have
something to learn from those
whose interests are diametri-
cally opposed to your own. Youll
accomplish far more than you
even anticipated in April. June
brings commercial opportunities.
Cancer and Gemini people adore
you. Your lucky numbers are: 40,
2, 31, 24 and 18.
