packed courtroom and backed
out of apreliminaryhearingat the
last minute Tuesday, avoiding a
face-to-face confrontation with
accuserswhohislawyersaidwere

stories of child sex abuse.
Sandusky came to court with
alumni from the charity hes ac-
cused of using to lure victims,
pleaded not guilty and vowed to
stay the course, to fight for four
quarters.
Hislawyer, JoeAmendola, then
spoke before dozens of news cam-
eras on the courthouse steps for
an hour, saying some of the 10
youngmenwhoaccuse Sandusky
of molesting them as children
were only out to profit from civil
lawsuits against the coach and
Penn State.

HARRISBURGThe options
in Pennsylvania for people to buy
wine and beer fromprivate retail-
ers would expand while keeping
the state-controlled liquor stores
open under a bill approved Tues-
day by a state House panel.
Republicans, who supported
the bill in a party-line vote, called
it the only privatization legisla-
tion that has won a committee
vote in Pennsylvania since Pro-
hibition.
But it represents a radical de-
parture fromthe objectives of the
House Republican floor leader
and Republican Gov. Tom Cor-
bett to shut down the state stores
andauctionwine andliquor sales
licenses to big-box retailers and
other private operators.
Prospects for the bill are not
clear in the full House, and a raft
of proposed amendments are ex-
pected to emerge on a topic that
has proven to be complicated for
the Legislature.
Liquor Control Committee
Chairman John Taylor, R-Phila-
delphia, defended the bill as a
better transition to a private mar-
ket than Corbetts idea because it
would allowgood stores to thrive
without costing the jobs of state-
store employees.
On paper, this looks to be
privatization-lite, Taylor said.
If you play it out, its much more
significant in terms of what will
happen after this is passed. ... I
think youll have a hybrid ap-
proach in terms of the retail mar-
ket, as well.
Youll have a Total Wine
(store) in Pennsylvania, youll
have mom-and-pop operations,
youll have supermarkets with
this ability to do it and I think
thats significant enough without
doing damage, he said.
Under the bill, restaurants,
bars and beer distributors could
sell beer in a wider variety of
quantities. The states approxi-
mately 1,200 beer distributors
could get licenses to sell wine
and wine wholesalers could com-
pete with the state Liquor Con-
trol Board, which holds a monop-
oly now.
The state stores would remain
the only licensees that could sell
hard liquor, and the state Liquor
Control Board would get more
power over purchasing, pricing
and setting the hours that its
stores can operate, including
opening more stores on Sunday.
Taylor also said he would ex-
pect some beer distributors to
sell their licenses to supermar-
kets or other retailers that want
to attach a beer and wine store.
About 100 convenience stores,
groceries and supermarkets cur-
rently sell beer through retail res-
taurant licenses, Taylor said.
Wine, beer buying options may be on tap
Legislation would keep
state-controlled liquor stores
rather than shut them down.

The next Lake-Lehman School
Board meeting will be held at 7
p.m. Jan. 16 in the junior/senior
high school library.
WHAT S NEXT DURYEA Council Presi-
dent Audrey Marcinko on
Tuesday night explained, in re-
sponse to resident questions,
the difference between the Fed-
eral Emergency Management
Agency money the borough ex-
pects to receive and donations
the borough already has.
She told residents at the Bor-
ough Council meeting the
money from FEMA is to reim-
burse what the borough has
spent on the flood recovery.
According to Borough Man-
ager Lois Morreale, donation
money given to Duryea resi-
dents from the surrounding ar-
ea currently totals $7,111.25.
The money is in an account at
the Penn Security Bank across
the street from the borough
building. Four gift cards from
Walmart and Ace Hardware to-
taling $100 were also donated
and are stored safely.
Council pointed out that
contrary to rumors, there is
not $200,000 in donations.
That is the FEMA money to
the borough that is not guaran-
teed.
However, Marcinko did
bring up the matter of how to
distribute the donations.
There were 339 homes af-
fected by the flood, over 200
that were really bad, Marcin-
ko said. She is asking for ideas
from the people, since this is
the peoples money.
Ideas are welcomed at the
state Department of Environ-
mental Protection meeting, the
date of which still has not been
arranged yet with state Sen.
John Blake.
Residents will be invited to
ask questions concerning the
dike.

Yuknavich found not guilty
Wilkes-Barre Township Fire Chief
John Paul Yuknavich, 48, was found
not guilty Tuesday of violating a re-
straining order granted to his ex-girl-
friend, Denise Pavlick.
Plains Township police charged
Yuknavich on Nov. 27 with violating
the PFA after Pavlick
claimed Yuknavich
drove past her house
on Oak Street and
revved the engine of
his Ford Mustang.
Pavlick obtained the
PFA on Nov. 7 that
prohibited Yuknavich
from having any con-
tact with her after he allegedly threat-
ened to shoot her and Kenneth Scialpi.
Luzerne County President Judge
Thomas Burke found Yuknavich not
guilty of PFA violation charge after a
hearing.
Plains Township police charged
Yuknavich with drunken driving, alleg-
ing his blood alcohol level was .16
percent when he was stopped near
Pavlicks house on Nov. 27.
Yuknavich is facing assault and ter-
roristic threat charges for the Nov. 7
alleged incident. He is also facing theft
charges filed by state police at Wyom-
ing who alleged he stole more than
$11,000 from the fire department he
continues to direct.

PLAINS TWP. The Luzerne Coun-
ty Housing Authority is moving ahead
with plans to demolish the former Sa-
cred Heart Church and convent in
Plains Township and build townhous-
es for the elderly in the space occupied
by the shuttered structures.
Executive Director Dave Fagula told
the board last week demolition bids
are due Friday and likely will be award-
ed at the authoritys January meeting.
However, a construction timeline re-
mains uncertain, as Fagula isnt confi-
dent state gaming funds and a match-
ing county grant will be available this
year.
The$2.7millionproject entails dem-
olition of the two buildings, restoring
the site and performing some mitiga-
tion work so we have a vacant site
thats ready to develop later on, Fag-
ula said.
To help fund the project, the admin-
istration is preparing a $1.2 million
gaming grant application to the state
Department of Community and Eco-
nomic Development. Fagula said
Plains Township commissioners have
agreed to submit the application on
the authoritys behalf.
Fagula said about $200,000 in side-
walk improvements on Main Street
would be included in the project and
grant application.
Fagula said he is simultaneously
submitting an application for a $1 mil-
lion grant to the county Office of Com-
munity Development for HOME pro-
gram funds.
Part of our problem is going to be
that when youre going after a gam-
ing grant or putting a project together,
youre supposed to have all these other
fundingsources definitelyinplace, and
we wont have that $1 million in place
from the Office of Community Devel-
opment, Fagula said.
He hopes OCD director Andy Reilly
will be able to provide a letter Fagula
can submit with the state application
stating that he intends to help fund the
project as funds become available. Im
thinking that even if Community De-
velopment gave us HOMEfunds over a
two- or three-year period, we could go
in, prepare the site, do all the infras-
tructure, maybe build several of the
units. Its only scheduled to be 14
units, Fagula said.
Thengobackinfollowingyears and
finish it out, maybe getting another
couple hundred thousand dollars in
HOME money, do another two units
and another two units until its built
out, that would be fine, he said.
Fagula said the Wyoming Valley is in
need of elderly housing.
According to the latest U.S. Census
numbers, Plains Township ranks ninth
in the county for the number of resi-
dents 65andolder livingbelowthe fed-
eral poverty level.

WILKES-BARRE Aman facing rob-
bery-related charges filed by four police
agencies was arraigned Tuesday on alle-
gations he stole more than $1,400 from
his grandmother.
City police allege Daniel Seth Ungar-
sky, 27, stole blank checks and a credit
card from his grandmother in October
and had his stepsister and a friend cash
the checks at local banks.
Ungarsky was ar-
raigned in Wilkes-
Barre Central Court
on17counts of forgery
and a single count of
receiving stolen prop-
erty. Bail was set at
$2,500 on the latest
criminal complaint.
In unrelated cases, Ungarsky is facing
charges that he robbed the Dollar Gen-
eral store on the Dallas Memorial High-
way, Kingston Township; Family Dollar
on Union Street, Pringle, and McDo-
nalds on Kidder Street, Wilkes-Barre,
on Nov. 14.
He is also accused of trying to rob the
Uni Mart on North Main Street, Plains
Township, on Nov. 14, and of a robbery
at Taco Bell, Kidder Street, Wilkes-
Barre, on Nov. 13, according to court re-
cords.
Authorities allege Ungarsky commit-
tedthe robberies to support a heroinad-
diction and that after learning he used
the same needle as someone infected
with the AIDS virus, he went on a ram-
page.
According to the latest criminal com-
plaint:
Dorothy Wilcox told police she sus-
pected her grandson, Ungarsky, stole17
personal checks and purchased items
on her credit card without permission.
Police said they learned three checks
were cashed by Ungarskys sister, Sara
Ungarsky; six checks were cashed by
Jared Coyne; and eight checks were
cashed by Philip Enders.
Sara Ungarsky told police her brother
asked her to cash their grandmothers
checks after he told her their grand-
mother was ill and unable to withdraw
money from the bank.
When Sara Ungarsky later spotted
her grandmother driving, she refusedto
cash any more checks given to her by
her brother.
Coyne told police Ungarsky asked
him to cash checks after Ungarsky
claimedhe owedmoneytothe bank, the
complaint says.
A preliminary hearing is scheduled
on Dec. 22.

An Open Letter of Thanks...
To the ER, LCCC, Nursing Students,
Mrs. G.(squadron leader), Nurses Aides
and Nurses of Geisinger Hospital, 5 East.
My extended stay in room 541 has
enlightened me to the hard work these
professionals endure.
Physical Therapy and Nursing are
professions that deserve far more credit
than they currently receive.
In closing, I believe Nurses and Nurses
Aides should have special close parking to
shopping centers and sporting events.
They should be served frst in restaurants
and be provided choice seats at all theaters
and receive giant discounts on large ticket
items like refrigerators and cars.
They have earned my respect and I close
with my sincere thanks.
Love to all.
Recovering well.

HAZLETON Police inves-
tigating a domestic dispute al-
legedly uncovered a large
amount of illegal narcotics in-
side an apartment on West
Broad Street.
Police arrested Juan Grego-
rio Soriano Tejeda, 21, on
multiple drug offenses after
cocaine and heroin were al-
legedly found hidden in sever-
al places inside his apart-
ment.
Tejeda was arraigned Tues-
day in Wilkes-Barre Central

WILKES-BARRE Tyrek
Smith acknowledged Tuesday
he may have told several stories
to investigators involving the
shooting death of 30-year-old
Abdul Shabazz.
But, while testifying in the
homicide trial of Izel and Isiah
Garrett, Smith said he was tell-
ing the truth.
(Im here to) give justice to
the Shabazz family, Smith, 25,
of Harrisburg, testified. To get
the truth out.
That truth, Smith testified, is
that Izel Garrett pulled the trig-
ger, firing the shots that ulti-
mately killed Shabazz in a drug
deal gone bad in December
2010.
Smith was among several wit-
nesses assistant district attor-
neys Frank McCabe and Jill
Matthews Lada called Tuesday
to testify.
Testimony will continue this
morning. The trial is expected
to last until Thursday.
Smith said he knew the Gar-
retts father, Calvin, called Sha-
bazz, also known as the Weed
Bull, to deliver themmarijuana,
and that he opened the door for
Shabazz when he arrived at Cal-
vin Garretts West Hazleton
apartment.
What Smith said he didnt
know was that the Garrett
brothers were going to hand
over counterfeit money, rob
Shabazz of the drugs and shoot
him.
I was shocked, Smith testi-
fied.
Smith said he didnt tell the
truth at first that he had just
been hanging out at the Gar-
rett residence because he
couldnt believe what had hap-
pened.
Under questioning by Isiah
Garretts attorney Robert Mo-
zenter, Smith said he isnt put-
ting the blame on anyone, but
telling the truth.
He said some items found in
his home during a search war-
rant including a scale to mea-
sure marijuana were his, but
.22-caliber bullets found were
not his.
Last week, Smith pleaded
guilty to a robbery charge relat-
ed to the homicide, and is
scheduled to be sentenced on
Feb. 23. He faces a maximum of
20 years in prison.
Prosecutors also played a 911
tape for jurors, a call Shabazz
made for help following the
shooting at 12:04 p.m. Dec. 6 of
last year.
Im shot in the stomach,
Shabazz could be heard telling a
911 dispatcher. I dont know
where Im at ... I dont see no
blood. Shabazz could be heard
breathing heavily and telling
the dispatcher he didnt know
who shot him.
I cant move. I cant
breathe, Shabazz said in the
tape.
State police Cpl. Jody Rad-
ziewicz testified he assisted in
carrying out two search war-
rants relating to the case, one at
Calvin Garretts home and an-
other at the Mechanicsburg
home of the Garrett brothers.
Radziewicz testified that a
bullet hole and bullet were
found in the living room wall of
Calvin Garretts apartment and
that two guns, ammunition and
two spent .38 caliber casings
were found at the Garrett broth-
ers home. Investigators said
Shabazz was shot with a .38-cal-
iber gun.

DUPONT When Stanley
Golembiewski moved to ad-
journ Tuesday nights regular
Dupont Borough Council meet-
ing, it was his final motion as a
member of the panel.
The official was recognized
with a plaque commemorating
his 16 years of service to the
borough.
After the meeting, the 63-
year-old, life-long resident of
Dupont was unable to choose
one specific memory as a high-
light from his tenure on coun-
cil. He instead praised his fel-
lowpublic officials and the peo-
ple of Dupont.
Although he immensely en-
joyed his time as a council
member, he chose not to run
again in order to allow younger
members of council the oppor-
tunity to establish themselves
for the good of the town.
Also on Tuesday, Dupont
passed a 2012 operating budget
of $915,561. Property tax rates
will remain at 1.2235 mills. A
mill is a $1 tax for every $1,000
of assessed property valuation.
The budget passed by a mar-
gin of 4-1 with council member
Bernie Zielinski as the lone dis-
senter.
Zielinskis only point of con-
tention was the issue of unpaid
garbage pickup stickers. He has
brought this issue up several
times over the course of the
year. He said he feels some bor-
ough residents and businesses
are getting garbage pick-up ser-
vices without paying yearly
fees.
Despite assurances from
council President Stanley
Knick and Borough Manager
Patty McDonald that those
who are delinquent on their
garbage bills do not get service,
and that the issue has no bear-
ing on the 2012 budget, Zielin-
ski still voted no.
In other business, council ac-
cepted two police insurance
proposals fromJoyce Insurance
Group.
One package that covers
property, automobiles, police,
professional and public individ-
uals will cost $24,266 annually
and another proposal that
deals with workmans compen-
sation will cost $24,491.
Although she was unable to
give exact figures, McDonald
noted the new insurance plans
will save Dupont at least
$4,000 in the coming year.
The next meeting of Bor-
ough Council is set for 7 p.m.
Jan. 10.

Facebook looking
to stop suicide
Facebook is making it easier
for people who express suicidal
thoughts on the social network-
ing site to get help.
A program enables users to
instantly connect with a crisis
counselor through Facebooks
chat messaging system.
If a suicidal thought is spotted
on someones page, it can be
reported to Facebook by click-
ing a link next to the comment.
Facebook then sends an email to
the person who posted the sui-
cidal comment encouraging
them to call the National Sui-
cide Prevention Lifeline or click
on a link to begin a confidential
chat. The science shows that
people experience reductions in
suicidal thinking when there is
quick intervention, said Lidia
Bernik, associate project direc-
tor of Lifeline.

Razan Ghazzawi, 31, had been

EDINBURG, TEXAS
School may build wall
after 2 shot outside
School officials in South Tex-
as confined students to campus
buildings and pondered erecting
a cinder-block wall to block
bullets from hunters on adjacent
ranchland one day after two
middle school boys were shot
while trying out for the basket-
ball team on an outdoor court.
It seemed the most immedi-
ate solution for a problem spe-
cific to rural schools. With no
law in Texas prohibiting hunting
on private land next to schools
and high-powered rifles firing
ammunition that could go more
than a mile, school officials said
a barrier seemed a good idea.

from Senegal, then critically
wounded three other Senega-

WASHINGTON -- The Repub-
lican-controlled House on Tues-
day night passed legislation
sought by President Barack
Obama to extend Social Securi-
ty payroll tax cuts through 2012.
But the bill also includes a re-
quirement for construction of
an oil pipeline that has drawn a
veto threat.
The vote was 234-193.
The measure now goes to the
Senate, where top Democrats
strongly oppose the pipeline
provision.
The legislation would also re-
new jobless benefits for the
long-term unemployed.
And it would head off a
threatened 27 percent cut in
fees to doctors who treat Medi-
care patients.
With lawmakers expected to
adjourn soon for the year, the
partisan showdown is the last of
a remarkably quarrelsome year
of divided government.
In debate on the measure,
House Democrats accused Re-
publicans of protecting million-
aires and billionaires, Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid of
Nevada derided the GOP-
backed pipeline provision as
ideological candy for the tea
party set and Republicans
mocked Obamas objections.
Mr. President, we cant
wait, said House Majority
Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia,
employing a refrain the White
House often uses to criticize Re-
publicans for failing to take
steps to improve an economy
struggling to recover from the
worst recession in decades.
At its core, the measure did
include key parts of the jobs
program that Obama asked
Congress to approve in Septem-
ber.
The Social Security payroll
tax cuts approved a year ago to
help stimulate the economy
would be extended through
2012, avoiding a loss of take-
home income for 160 million
Americans.
And an expiring program of
unemployment benefits for the
long-term jobless would remain
in place.
A third major component
would avert a threatened 27 per-
cent cut in payments to doctors
who treat Medicare patients, a
provision Republicans added to
appeal to conservatives but one
that the White House and Dem-
ocrats embrace, too.

porters on Capi-
tol Hill in Wash-
ington Tuesday
before a crucial
vote.
DENVER Colorado will re-
quire energy companies to dis-
close the concentrations of all
chemicals in hydraulic fracturing
and also ask drillers to make pub-
lic some informationabout ingre-
dients considered trade secrets.
Regulators unanimously ap-
proved the new rules Tuesday
that take effect in April.
The guidelines are similar to
thoserequiredbyafirst-in-the-na-
tion lawpassed in Texas this year
but go further by requiring the
concentrations of chemicals tobe
disclosed.
Thats the big advancer here.
Were getting a full picture of
whats inthat fracking fluid, said
Michael Freeman, anattorney for
Earthjustice who worked with in-
dustry to write the rules.
Also, if Colorado drillers claim
a trade secret, they would still
have to disclose the ingredients
chemical family. In emergencies,
companies would have to tell
health care workers what those
secret ingredients were.
It yielded a good rule for the
state and a workable rule for the
industry, said Jep Seman, an at-
torney for the Colorado Petro-
leum Association.
Companies have been fracking
for decades, but as drilling ex-
pands to more populated areas,
residents near wells are con-
cerned about the effects on their
health and drinking water.

WASHINGTON States
should ban all driver use of cell
phones and other portable elec-
tronic devices, except in emer-
gencies, the National Transpor-
tation Board said Tuesday.
The recommendation, unani-
mously agreed to by the five-
member board, applies to both
hands-freeandhand-heldphones
and significantly exceeds any ex-
isting state laws restricting text-
ingandcellphone use behindthe
wheel.
The board made the recom-
mendation in connection with a
deadly highway pileup in Mis-
souri last year. The board said
the initial collision in the acci-
dent near Gray Summit, Mo.,
was caused by the inattention of
a 19 year-old-pickup driver who
sent or received11texts in the11
minutes immediately before the
crash.
The pickup, traveling at 55
mph, slammed into the back of a
tractor truck that had slowed for
highway construction. The pick-
up was rear-ended by a school
bus that overrode the smaller ve-
hicle. A second school bus
rammed into the back of the first
bus.
The pickup driver and a 15-
year-old student on one of the
school buses were killed. Thirty-
eight other people were injured
inthe Aug. 5, 2010, accident near
Gray Summit, Mo.
The accident is a big red flag
for all drivers, NTSB chairman
DeborahHersmansaidat ameet-
ing to determine the cause of the
accident and make safety recom-
mendations.
While the NTSB doesnt have
thepower toimposerestrictions,
its recommendations carry with
regulators and lawmakers.

LIEGE, Belgium A man
armed with grenades and an as-
sault rifle attacked holiday
shoppers Tuesday at a central
square in the Belgian city of
Liege. Four people died, includ-
ing the attacker, and 123 others
were wounded, officials said.
It was not immediately clear
what motivated the attack in
the busy Place Saint-Lambert
square, the central entry point
to downtown shopping streets
in the city in eastern Belgium.
The attack prompted hundreds
of shoppers to stampede down
old city streets, fleeing explo-
sions and bullets.
Interior Ministry official Pe-
ter Mertens said the attack did
not involve terrorism but did
not explain why he thought
that.
Belgian officials identified
the attacker as Norodine Amra-
ni, 33, a Liege resident whothey
said had done jail time for of-
fenses involving guns, drugs
and sexual abuse. He was
amongthe dead, but Liege Pros-
ecutor Danielle Reynders told
reporters it was unclear if he
committed suicide or died by
accident. He did not die at the
hands of police, she said.
The other dead were two
teenage boys, 15 and 17, and a
75-year-old woman, she said.
The La Libre newspaper report-
ed that a 2-year-old girl was
clinging to life.
Reynders said Amrani had
been summoned for police
questioning on Tuesday but the
reason for that was not clear. He
still had a number of grenades
with him when he died, she
said.

WILKES-BARRE City Coun-
cil on Thursday will consider an
ordinance allowing the city to
charge additional inspection fees
for rental properties that require
more than one code-compliance
inspection.
The ordinance would amend
the citys buildings and buildings
regulation codes to permit the
city to charge landlords an addi-
tional fee when a property must
be re-inspected after failing in-
spection, or after passing inspec-
tion upon conditions that certain
amenities, like fire alarms, be
added.
We have inspectors spending
a lot of time on these properties
that originally failed inspec-
tions, city attorney Tim Henry
explained. Then, when they get
up to code and the re-inspections
done, we have no way to charge
them because under our current
rental permit ordinance, we can
only charge for the original in-
spection.
Currently, the city charges $35
for a two-year renters license and
$35 for each inspection. Council
members did not specify a cost
for subsequent inspections, but
Henry said it would be nominal
and in line with the rates already
in place.
Council will consider the ordi-
nance on first reading at its next
meeting at 6 p.m. Thursday.
Also at that meeting, council
will vote on a resolution aimed at
relieving traffic congestion
around the crumbling Hotel Ster-
lingbychangingthetimingof the
traffic light at the intersection of
West Market Street andthe north
corner of Public Square.
The move would allowthe city
to enter into an agreement with
the Pennsylvania Department of
Transportation to temporarily al-
ter that lights timing sequence.
At a public hearing immediate-
lyprecedingThursdays meeting,
representatives of Coal Street De-
li LLC are also expected to re-
quest councils approval to trans-
fer a liquor license froman estab-
lishment in Nanticoke to 302 N.

COURT BRIEFS
WEST WYOMING -- There
are no increases in 2012 budget,
borough council announced at
its meeting Monday.
The $893,343 spending plan
includes a property tax millage
of 1.5, which is unchanged from
this year. A mill is a $1 tax on
every $1,000 of assessed proper-
ty value. Also, there are no in-
creases in sewer and garbage
fees.
The annual sewer user fee is
$336 and the annual garbage fee
is $200 if purchased from Feb. 1
to Feb. 28, 2012.
Senior citizens over 65 will re-
ceive a $25 rebate if garbage
stickers are purchased before
Jan. 31. All others will receive a
$15 discount.
After Feb. 28, the cost will be
$300 for the year and citations
will be issued.
Garbage stickers are available
at the town hall on the corner of
Eighth Street and Shoemaker
Avenue.
In other business, council
President Eileen Cipriani an-
nounced she was invited to par-
ticipate in a joint legislative
hearing on the Municipal Finan-
cial Recovery Act (Act 47) on
Dec. 8. At the request of state
Sen. John Blake, Democratic
chairman of the Senate Local
Government Committee, Cipria-
ni attended to explain how the
borough managed to restore fi-
nancial stability and avoid Act
47 involvement by entering into
the Early Intervention Program.
Cipriani participated in a pan-
el format along with representa-
tives of the cities of Scranton,
Lancaster, Pittsburgh and Read-
ing.

Budget of $893,343 comes without tax hike
Millage for borough remains
at 1.5 for 2012. Sewer and
garbage fees also the same.
By CAMILLE FIOTI
NESCOPECK Council on
Monday night unanimously
passeda$322,916budget for 2012
that keeps existing tax rates but
calls for more than $12,000 in ad-
ditional spending for police.
Some of the increase, said
council President Sandy Wright,
is contained in yearly contractual
pay raises, but overall spending
for the police in 2012 is projected
at $96,286 compared with
$84,053 in 2011 because of in-
creased hours of coverage by po-
lice.
In August and September,
council was confronted by resi-
dents who asked for a stepped up
police presence because of what
they said was an increase in bur-
glaries and drug activity. The
hours were increased in response
to those pleas.
Overall, a tax ordinance, which
was passed unanimously, con-
tains revenues of1.177mills onre-
al estate, 0.2 mills for street
lights, a $10 per capita tax, a $52
personal services taxonindividu-
als employed in the borough
earning more than $12,000 per
year, and a1/2 percent earned in-
come tax.
A mill is $1 in tax for every
$1,000 in assessed valuation. The
earned income tax is projected to
provide the highest yield:
$125,000.
Incontrast tolawenforcement,
proposedspendingfor the fire de-
partment will remain at 2011 lev-
els, inspiteof protestsfromDavid
Shoemaker, assistant fire chief.
Overall, $12,847 was allocated
for the department, but Shoe-
maker argued that designating
only $1,000 for truck repair is in-
sufficient in light of the age of the
firetrucks, whichhesaidare2003
and2006models. He saida repair
bill couldwipe out the entire allo-
cation.
Any other repair needs, Shoe-
maker said, could render a truck
inoperable because, we cant af-
ford to get it repaired.
Councilman Tim Kishbaugh
agreedwithShoemaker that a po-
tential problem exists, but said
the alternative is more taxation;
and, council, following flooding
in September by the Susquehan-
na River, isnt prepared to raise
taxes. Wright said council is
hopeful of getting federal and
state reimbursement for floodex-
penses, money she said that
couldbeput backintothegeneral
fund.
Wright said that because
spending was reined in, council,
for the first time in several years,
didnt have to borrow any mon-
ey this year. When pressed by
Shoemaker, however, she did ac-
knowledge that the borough has
an existing rainy fund of
$60,420.

court in many types of minor
cases, said veteran Luzerne
County defense attorneys Al
Flora Jr., Nanda Palissery and
Barry Dyller. But its highly
unusual to do so in a case in-
volving serious charges like
those Sandusky is facing, the
attorneys said.
When I heard that he waived
I was very surprised, Palissery
said.
The attorneys said its almost
always to a defendants benefit
to hold a preliminary hearing in
cases involving serious charges
because it gives the defense a
more detailed picture of the
prosecutions case early on in
the proceedings.
Its a huge benefit in so
many ways. You have a chance
to get some of the charges dis-
missed. But most importantly
you get to make the witnesses
testify and you get to cross-
examine them to create a re-
cord you can use later at trial,
Dyller said.
The credibility of witnesses is
a key issue, particularly in sex-
ual-assault cases, Flora said.
Hearing the alleged victims
version of events is crucial in
helping the defense develop a
strategy, he said.
Any time you are dealing
with a sex offense case, if you
have an opportunity to question
the alleged victim and lock in
their story, you really want to
go to a preliminary hearing to
do that, Flora said.
The objective of a preliminary
hearing is for a district judge to
determine whether there is
sufficient evidence for the case
to proceed to county court. The
burden of proof is very low at
this stage, with most cases
being forwarded, Flora said.
Its still worth going to a
hearing since theres virtually
no risk to the defendant, who is
not required to testify, he said.
From a defense standpoint,
there is not a lot that could go
wrong, Flora said. You are not
required to disclose your strate-
gy.
Sandusky, the former defen-
sive coordinator for Penn State,
is facing more than 50 charges
related to his alleged sexual
abuse of 10 boys over a span of
12 years. He and his attorney,
Joseph Amendola, have ada-
mantly maintained his inno-
cence.
Amendola and the prosecu-
tor, Senior Deputy Attorney
General E. Marc Costanzo, each
said there have been no plea
negotiations.
Speaking after the hearing,
Amendola said the decision to
waive was a tactical decision
to prevent the alleged victims
from reiterating the same
claims they made to the state
grand jury that issued the in-
dictment against Sandusky.
Dyller, Flora and Palissery
speculated Sandusky may have
been offered some sort of con-
cession by prosecutors in ex-
change for the waiver. Prosecu-
tors will often offer to drop
some of the charges if the de-
fendant waives, they said.
A good defense lawyer will
not waive a hearing unless he
gets an appropriate concession,
Dyller said.
Amendola said the only
agreement with prosecutors
was that they would give early
warning if Sandusky would face
further charges and that they
would keep his bail at $250,000.
A spokesman for the prosecu-
tors said that Sanduskys bail
conditions were adequate, but
made no other promises.
Sandusky waived his rights
today. We waived nothing, said
Nils Frederiksen, a spokesman
for the state attorney generals
office.
The Associated Press contrib-
uted to this story.

BELLEFONTE Dawn broke
on an alternative downtown Bel-

Below the ornate cornices and
brick facades, media satellite
trucks sat parked in every space,
dishes pointed skyward, genera-
tors humming. The corner Dairy
Queen, usuallyopenat10:30a.m.,
blazedwithlight by 5:15 a.m., full
of people hunched over notepads
and laptops, all waiting for Jerry
Sanduskys preliminary hearing
to begin.

Tuesdaymorningwasanything
but sleepy in the county seat.
Policeclosedthreeblocks of Al-
legheny Street and one block of
HighStreet totraffic the night be-
fore, and snipers stood guard on
rooftops beneathcirclinghelicop-
ters. Bellefonte Area School Dis-
trict administrators acted as
crossing guards.
Restaurants opened early for
breakfast, but theBellefonteFam-
ily YMCAclosed for the day.
Its pretty crazy, said Belle-
fonte resident Kristy Severino,
drawntothe scene like many oth-
er locals.
An odd morning turned even
stranger when Sandusky waived
his hearing within minutes, sur-
prising the media and downtown
businesses, who were anticipat-
ing an all-day event. Reporters
rushed to the Diamond and jos-
tledfor positionaroundattorneys
holding impromptu news confer-
ences.
Its an event at the cour-
thouse, said borough resident
Pam Aikey. Its something that
this community has never really
seen before.
Bellefonte police Chief Shawn
Weaver oversaw a small law en-
forcement army.
Weaver said 47 officers, includ-
ing snipers, fromhis department,
state police and the other local
forces handled the first security
shift. If the day had required two
more shifts, about 100 officers
would have been involved, he
said.
After two weeks of planning,
Weaver said, the morning was
absolutelyflawless without any
incidents. A lighter-than-expect-
ed public turnout helped, as did
assistance from local emergency
responders, municipal employ-
ees andthe SalvationArmys can-
teen.More than 100 photogra-
phers, reporters and members of
the media gathered behind the
courthouse at about 7:30 a.m.,
waiting for Sandusky to arrive.
When he did, he was a passen-
ger inablackBMWSUV. Hewore
a dark suit and was accompanied
by about 20 family members and
friends. As he walked toward the
courthouse, his wife, Dottie, held
his arm.
A reporter shouted a question,
asking how he felt to face his ac-
cusers.
Sandusky didnt answer and
kept his hands in his pockets.

BELLEFONTE Jerry Sand-
uskys lawyer saidhe plans to
chip away at the motives and
character of the allegedvictims
andprosecutionwitnesses,
including the assistant Penn
State football coachwho tolda
grandjury he sawSandusky
sexually assault a child.
Speaking to reporters after a
brief court appearance Tuesday
morning, attorney Joe Amendo-
la saidcredibility is going to be
the mainfactor inthis case.
He took aimat bothcoach
Mike McQueary andthe alleged
victims inthe case, some of
whomsaidSandusky fondled
them, others who saidhe forced
themto have sex.
Do yourealize that many of
these young menalready have
civil attorneys for the lawsuits
that are being filed, have been
filed, or will be filed? Amendo-
la said. What greater motiva-
tion andI hate to say it, but its
going to be part of the case, so
were checking onit now what
greater motivationcouldthere
be thanmoney? Ive seenmoney
break up families. Ive seen
siblings become enemies fight-
ing over their parents assets
after their parents pass away.
What greater motivation,
folks, couldthere be thanthe
financial gainthat couldcome
out of this by saying, Ima
victim.
Amendola spoke for nearly an
hour to reporters infront of the
Centre County Courthouse
after Sandusky waivedhis right
to a preliminary hearing Tues-
day morning.
Amendola onTuesday partic-
ularly questionedMcQuearys
testimony anddifferent ver-
sions of his story that have
surfaced.
He pointedto the allegation
inthe grandjury report that
McQueary sawSandusky rap-
ing a boy who appearedto be10
years old. McQueary reportedly
toldhis father about the in-
cident andthentoldJoe Pa-
terno. McQueary later told
then-athletic director TimCurl-
ey andGary Schultz, the now
retiredexecutive vice president
for finance, what he hadseen,
according to the attorney gener-
als account.
But Curley andSchultz gave a
different versionof events,
saying they werent tolda rape
was taking place. The grand
jury concludedthey were lying.
Amendola also pointedto
McQuearys more recent as-
sertionthat he calledpolice
after witnessing the alleged
rape whichdiffers fromthe
grandjury report.

Anattorneyfor onecalledSand-
usky a coward for not hearing
his accusers testimony and derid-
ed the arguments that they were
out for money, saying many were
too old to sue Sandusky under
Pennsylvanias statute of limita-
tions.
It makes my blood boil, said
HarrisburglawyerBenAndreozzi,
whoreadastatement byhisclient,
identified in a grand jury report as
Victim4, who was said to have be-
come a fixture at one point in the
Sandusky household.
All themoneyintheworldisnt
goingtobringthembacktowhere
they were before the sexual as-
saults.
Sandusky 67, faces 52 criminal
counts for what agrandjurycalled
a series of sexual assaults and
abuseof10boys datingbacktothe
1990s, in hotel swimming pools,
the basement of his home in State
College and in the locker room
showers at Penn State, where he
coached football until his retire-
ment in1999.
The charges devastatedthe uni-
versity andits storiedfootball pro-
gram and led to the departures of
coach Joe Paterno, the universi-
tys president and charges against
administrators accused of lying to
a grand jury and failing to report
the suspected abuse.
Amendola told reporters Tues-
day that Sandusky is an emotion-
al, physical man a loving guy,
anaffectionate guy who never
didanythingillegal. The lawyer li-
kened Sanduskys behavior to his
own Italian family in which ev-
erybody hugged and kissed each
other.
The lawyer accusedthe uniden-
tified victims of seeking to cash in
throughfalseaccusations andsaid
thepreliminaryhearingwouldnot
have allowedhimtodelve intothe
witnesses credibility.
Sandusky entered a not-guilty
plea and asked for a jury trial, his
lawyer said. A pretrial conference
was set for March.
If he wants to change his mind
at the last minute, thats his pre-
rogative, senior deputy attorney
general E. Marc Costanzo said.
Some lawyers for alleged vic-
tims said they were disappointed
they didnt testify, after steeling
themselves to face him.
It would have been apparent
from watching those boys and
their demeanor that they were
telling the truth, said Howard Ja-
net, a lawyer for a boy whose
mother contacted police in 1998
and said her son had showered
with Sandusky.
Sanduskywaivedtheprelimina-
ry hearinginfront of his wife, Dot-
tie, someof their adoptedchildren
and alumni of The Second Mile,
an organization that Sandusky
foundedin1977tohelpstruggling
children. The grand jury alleged
that he used the charity to meet
and lure his alleged victims.
The first known abuse allega-
tionwas in1998, whenthemother
told police Sandusky had show-
ered with her son.
Accusations surfaced again in
2002, when then-graduate assist-
ant Mike McQueary reported an-
other alleged incident of abuse to
Paterno and other university offi-
cials.
The grand jury probe began on-
lyin2009, after a teencomplained
that Sandusky, then a volunteer
coach at his high school, had
abused him.
The teen told the grand jury
that Sandusky first groomed him
with gifts and trips in 2006 and
2007, then sexually assaulted him
more than 20 times in 2008
through early 2009.
Amendola on Tuesday attacked
McQueary by citing a Sunday re-
port in The Patriot-News of Har-
risburg that claimed he changed
his story when speaking to a fam-
ily friend.
The defense attorney said
McQuearys conflicting accounts
would derail the prosecution.
McQueary was always the cen-
terpieceof theprosecutionscase,
he said.
The newspaper report cited a
source said to be familiar with the
testimony of the family friend, Dr.
Jonathan Dranov.
Dranov was unable to be reac-
hed for comment. No one answer-
ed the door at McQuearys home
Tuesday and his father, John, de-
clined comment.
Lawyers for PennState Athletic

If this information is true, and
we believe it is, it wouldbe power-

Its going to save money because
now judges cant just dump
anyone in here
Joseph Piazza
The Luzerne County prison warden lauded a recent
change in state law that is likely to reduce the
number of state-sentenced inmates serving their sentences in county
prisons. The measure should ease overcrowding in county lockups and
help to control their costs.
State has gone too far
with gas drilling bills
S
everal of the areas state senators and
representatives voted for SB1100 and
HB1950. Both are Marcellus Shale-
related bills. Both could allow natural gas
drilling rigs in residential areas subject to
setbacks.
They still have to be reconciled, passed
by the Legislature and signed by Gov. Tom
Corbett. It could happen this month.
If these legislators read the 140-plus
page bills they would see that if a munici-
pality enacts a gas ordinance, gets sued by
the drillers and loses, it could be required
to pay the drillers legal fees. Since law-
suits are costly, these bills could stymie
municipalities that want to protect resi-
dents drinking water via ordinances.
But, its worse.
The bills state that if a ... local ordi-
nance fails to provide for reasonable devel-
opment of oil and gas resources the local
government enacting or enforcing ... the
local ordinance shall be immediately ineli-
gible to receive any funds ... from the
well impact fee.
Currently, municipalities can prohibit
drilling from a residential-zoned area if its
allowed elsewhere. But, under versions of
SB1100 and HB1950, local ordinances
must allow drilling in all zoning districts
subject to setbacks. Next, look for
forced pooling, which could force non-
gas leased landowners into an agreement
against their will. The gas industry might
say to increase revenues to local munici-
palities they need forced pooling.
Gov. Corbett, already under fire for his
purported inaction on the Penn State Uni-
versity abuse scandal, could be a one-term
governor once this Marcellus overreach
becomes known. And, like the U.S. House
Democrats in 2010, state House Repub-
licans could lose their majority.
Many Pennsylvanians want gas drilling
and a fair severance tax, not the meager
well impact fee in HB1950 and SB1100.
Texas has a 7.5 percent tax; West Virginia:
6.4 percent.
This overreach might meet with the law
of unintended consequences. Instead of
more Pennsylvanians embracing gas, they
might begin to question it, too late, if it
involves the loss of individual property
rights via possible forced pooling, munic-
ipal zoning rights and residential property
values.
Our legislators might say these bills
were the only way to get a well impact
fee, although Pennsylvania is estimated to
hold the fourth largest shale gas reserves.
Is Harrisburg power more important than
protection of our drinking water and home
values? You decide.

Reader chastises Obama
for hiding behind Biden
I
recently read an Associated Press article
regarding the possibility of Vice Presi-
dent Joe Biden coming to our region
(Democrats campaign strategy: Send
Biden to Ohio, Pennsylvania, Florida,
Nov. 26).
He is a well-known gentleman in this
area, and the only reason for his visit ap-
parently is to use him as a pawn for the
president: to beg for votes for his re-elec-
tion. I believe it is a really sad affair when
you dont have enough confidence in your
own accomplishments to come to a region.
If I were the president, I wouldnt hurry
to this region either. We have poverty,
unemployment and empty promises; but
we do have his plan.

SEND US YOUR OPINION
K
OVER THE past two years,
there has been much dis-
cussion about the impact of
natural gas development in
Pennsylvania.
This has reached a fe-
vered pitch in recent weeks
as state government leaders try to finalize a
new law before years end. There are many
moving parts and issues on the table. Emo-
tions have run high on all sides, and occa-
sionally facts and sound science have be-
come the casualties. There have been com-
promises and accommodations all through
the process, but the cake remains unbaked!
Elected officials involved in this process
share a collective responsibility to Penns
Woods and its people. That includes the
members of the General Assembly, the gov-
ernor and members of the Pennsylvania
State Association of Township Supervisors,
which represents 95 percent of the states
land mass.
In this current sluggish economy, PSATS
certainly welcomes the jobs and economic
development opportunities that natural gas
development brings, as well as the opportu-
nity to reduce our national dependence on
foreign oil. However, PSATS also is interest-
ed in preserving the quality of life of Penn-
sylvanians and our environment. That said,
we support the benefits of exploration and
production of our commonwealths natural
resources as long as they are done safely.
Much has been offered about House Bill
1950 and Senate Bill 1100, the two primary
bills before the General Assembly that deal
with the issue of natural gas development.
Both bills, in their original forms, were unac-
ceptable to PSATS. In fact, they were unac-
ceptable to all local government associations
because they sought to strip local govern-
ment of any role in this process, and we said
so.
Both bills have been amended, and each
now has parts that are more reasonable and
represent a positive step toward maintaining
appropriate and traditional local control.
Each, however, also has substantial flaws
that prevented PSATS from endorsing either.
As we move toward the final days of de-
bate, I thought it important to share PSATS
guiding principles and motivations from a
local government perspective.
To summarize, we support enhancements
to current law to better protect our envi-
ronment (land, water and air). We support
the creation and enhancement of pipeline
standards to provide for the safe transport
and distribution of these resources. We sup-
port the development and enhancement of
public safety mechanisms and emergency
response plans that will ensure the maxi-
mum protection of Pennsylvanians.
We support market development programs
to encourage greater use of natural gas. We
support the distribution of a local impact fee
where a significant majority of the revenues
remains in affected communities, enabling
them to deal with development-related costs
today and in the future and to avoid local
property tax increases.
And most important, we oppose the total
elimination of local control, including land
use. Instead, we support the maximum pos-
sible retention of local decision-making
authority to provide for the reasonable devel-
opment of natural resources consistent with
law.
In the last century, in the race to embrace
coal, timber, oil and steel, Pennsylvania
didnt necessarily get it right when it came
to responsible development of those natural
resources. In a new century, we have a new
opportunity to get it right this time.
Shame on everyone if we miss that boat.

Pennsylvania State Association of Township Super-
visors. Visit www.psats.org.

COMMENTARY

OONESHOULDfault
Pennsylvanians living
amid the states natu-
ral-gas boom for find-
ing it deeply troubling that the
miles andmiles of pipeline being
strung across their communities
will never see a government in-
spector.
An Inquirer review found that
many of these pipeline networks,
bylaw, aresubject tofewer safety
checks than in any other state.
Thefeeder pipelinesfromhun-
dredsof wellsbeingsunkintothe
rich Marcellus Shale gas fields
areexempt fromoversight bythe
federal agencythat enforcespipe-
line standards. Where pipelines
run near sparsely populated ar-
eas, the Pipeline and Hazardous
Materials Safety Administration
relies on the pipeline industry to
meet safety standards rather
than performing its own inspec-
tions.
Under these standards, in
place for several decades, the
thinking is that few people are
put at riskbyapipelineexplosion
intheselargelyrural areas. Mean-
while, the pipeline operators are
supposed to have a financial in-
centive to properly install and
maintain their lines so that gas
and profits flowuninterrupted.
Without question, its good to
hear major operators boast of
state-of-the-art pipes and safe-
guards. But communities they
servehaveonlythewordof these
firms to go on.

OTHER OPINION: GAS DRILLING
Pipelines need
to be inspected
A
S EVEN CASUAL
fans of the Scooby-
Doo cartoon series
can confirm, plenty
of crime and evil-doing gets
stopped when a fewmeddling
kids simply dare to ask ques-
tions and hunt for answers.
The key: Strip away the se-
crecy of those involved, and
their bad behavior ends.
That same notion applies on
a much larger and more conse-
quential level in Pennsylvania,
where state law allows people
often with the help of the
startupstateOfficeof OpenRe-
cords to sleuth through pub-
lic information about state and
county governments, local
school boards and other tax-
payer-funded bodies. But the
offices ability to advocate for
speedyaccess topublic records
and to assist individuals in pur-
suit of paperwork might be
jeopardized next year because
of inadequate state funding,
says Executive Director Terry
Mutchler.
Were at a crossroads, she
says.
Mutchler urges area resi-
dents to press their state law-
makers for a pumped-up Office
of Open Records budget, and
rightly so.
Only a few years ago, Penn-
sylvanians wereintheDarkAg-
es when it came to right-to-
know laws that stipulate easy
access to government informa-
tion. The National Freedom of
Information Coalition ranked
our states rules second to last
in the nation.
A 2008 state law, which cre-
ated the Office of Open Re-
cords, propelled Pennsylvania
to 25th on that list and led to a
welcome change in the process
that people follow when seek-
ing records from stonewalling
public officials. Court is now a
last resort, not the only.
The offices 11-person staff,
still working out of temporary
quarters in Harrisburg, has re-
sponded to about 40,000 inqui-
ries and supplied nearly 500
training sessions. Its team of
lawyers has handled about
4,000 appeals on behalf of peo-
ple whose initial requests for
records fromagencies were de-
nied; about 95 percent of those
appeals involve everyday citi-
zens, not journalists chasing
news tips, Mutchler said.
Without public support,
Mutchler foresees the offices
$1.2 million budget further
eroding. Translation: the prob-
able loss next year of two em-
ployees and a laughable line
item of only $24,000 for oper-
ations, less than half of this
years outlay. Such reductions
would prevent the office from
fully performing its duties, she
said, at a time when public
watchdogs are requesting
more records related to issues
such as Marcellus Shale natu-
ral gas drilling.
If state lawmakers and the
governor fail to give sufficient
money to the Office of Open
Records, thereby making it
more difficult for average citi-
zens to keep an eye on govern-
ment goings-on, we have but
one thing to say:
Ruh-Roh!

Friends received help from area
businesses to remove comput-
ers and files from its basement.
And after the flood, the area
business Rainbow International
volunteered to clean out the
basement for free, she said.
The agency has barely missed
a beat, but other flood victims
in the community still need
help.
Interfaith Friends is one of
five agencies and nonprofit or-
ganizations being featured in
this years edition of The Times
Leaders Giving Guide.
There is widespread need
throughout the area, but the
hardship is unique in communi-
ties flooded in September. Each
organization spotlighted in this
weeks series either was flood-
ed, strained its resources help-
ing people in the inundated ar-
eas, or both. Readers are asked
to consider contributing to one
or more of these worthy causes
this holiday season.
With cold weather settling in
and holidays less than two
weeks away, Interfaith Friends
is reaching out to help area fam-
ilies with holiday gifts and food
baskets.
Lee said the communities of
Forkston, Falls, Noxen and Me-
hoopany are still cleaning up.
They are at different stages,
she said. Some homes only had
water in the basement; others
had it up to the second floor.
Adding flooding to a tough
economy and job market has in-
creased demand on services
from the agency this holiday
season.
Lee said about 600 families
have registered for the holiday
assistance program, about 100
more than last year. These fam-
ilies will receive a food basket
with the ingredients for a holi-
day dinner, some gifts for chil-
dren and a few stocking stuff-
ers.
Lee said another 80 families
were selected, based on their
circumstances, to be adopted
for the holidays. This number is
up from 65 accepted last year.
These families will receive a
food basket, gifts for all of the
childrens requests, a tree and
decorations.
All the items for the holiday
are being donated by area
schools, businesses and colleg-
es, Lee said.
It really is amazing to see
the generosity, she said.
The community, despite deal-
ing with individual flooding is-
sues, is pulling together to help
out those in need, she said. One
example is Dr. Paul Herberner,
a local chiropractor, whose of-
fice was completely flooded.
That did not stop him from
running his annual toy drive
called the Community Toy Box,
benefiting Interfaith Friends.
With so many people being
affected by flooding, it was
more important than ever to do
it this year, Herberner said.

I NTERFAI TH F RI ENDS WI SH L I ST:
tect the re-election chances of
the 12 Republican U.S. House
members.
Democrats say the plan de-
fies the interests of voters.
Republicans control the
governors office and state
Legislature, so the GOP gets
to draw the new congression-
al map that is required every
decade to reflect population
shifts. The Pennsylvania dele-
gation will shrink by one seat
in the 2012 election because
the state grew more
slowly than the rest
of the nation.
According to the
proposed maps, the
11th District will
stretch from Wyom-
ing County to Dau-
phin and Cumber-
land counties at the
southern end. Half
of Carbon County
has been taken
from the district,
while all of Colum-
bia County is re-
tained and all of
Montour County is
added.
In U.S. Rep. Tom
Marinos 10th District, more
of Lackawanna County is add-
ed, but the Democratic city of
Scranton goes to the 17th Dis-
trict. The 10th will contain all
or part of 15 counties, includ-
ing Pike, Wayne, Susquehan-
na, Bradford, Sullivan, Mon-
roe, Union, Snyder, Northum-
berland, Lycoming, Tioga,
Perry, Mifflin and Juniata.
The redistricting gives the
GOP more Republican con-
stituents in the 10th and 11th
districts and makes Holdens
17th District more Democrat-
ic.
Barletta: Bittersweet
Barletta said the new dis-
trict lines left him with a bit-
tersweet feeling, losing
Wilkes-Barre, Pittston, Scran-
ton, Monroe County, and half
of Carbon County.
In addition to the Back
Mountain and Wyoming
County, Barletta will gain
Cumberland, Montour, most
of Northumberland County,
most of Dauphin County, part
of Perry County and most of
Cumberland County.
Personally, Im sad to lose
parts of my district where I
made so many friends and
fought for so many people
that I will no longer repre-
sent, Barletta said. I am
looking forward to represent-
ing new areas, and making
new friends and continuing to
represent the areas that will
remain in my district.
Barletta said the 11th Dis-
trict was adjusted 10 years
ago to the advantage of for-
mer Congressman Paul Kan-
jorski, a Democrat.
This has been the process
for decades, Barletta said.
Thats why Scranton was
added to (Kanjorskis) dis-
trict.
Barletta said he has worked
with Holden in Washington
they both serve on the Trans-
portation and Infrastructure
Committee.
I feel very confident that
the people in
Wilkes-Barre,
Scranton and
Pittston will like
him and he will
serve them
well, Barletta
said. He works
very hard and
has a lot of se-
niority in Wash-
ington hes ve-
ry well-respect-
ed.
Holden, 54, is
serving his 10th
term in Con-
gress. He is the
dean of the
Pennsylvania
Congressional Delegation.
We Democrats have been
observers to this entire proc-
ess, he said. Im the proud
son of the coal region and I
share a lot of the culture and
history of the region of
Wilkes-Barre, Pittston and
Scranton. I look forward to
representing them and I in-
tend to visit the new areas of
my district to meet the peo-
ple and listen to their issues
and concerns.
Holden also added Easton
and Northampton counties
and part of Monroe County
and will lose Dauphin, Leba-
non, Berks and Perry coun-
ties. Holden also serves on
the House Agricultural Com-
mittee.
Vinsko vs. Barletta
Vinsko, 36, resides in South
Wilkes-Barre. He said his resi-
dency will not affect his plan
to take on Barletta in the 11th
District.
Im in the race for the 11th
Congressional District, Vin-
sko said. Issues dont stop at
party lines and dont stop at
district lines.
Candidates do not have to
reside in the district they rep-
resent, Vinsko noted.
Im committed to work for
the people of Northeastern
Pennsylvania, he said. They
can move my house, but they
cant move my commitment
to people of NEPA. Now that
the district maps are out, we
are proceeding ahead.
Barletta said he welcomes
Vinsko to the race.
Im not so sure the people
of the 11th District want to
continue to keep the policies
of President Obama that have
kept unemployment rates at
over 9 percent for 28 of the
last 30 months, Barletta said.
Marino, R-Lycoming Town-
ship, said it was inevitable
that the 10th Congressional
District would change.
I regret that I may no long-
er represent Luzerne, Mon-
tour and Wyoming counties
where I have made many
good friends and have had
many enjoyable experiences,
Marino said. I do welcome
the opportunity to meet resi-
dents of Monroe, Mifflin, Ju-
niata and Perry counties.
No matter how the state
Legislature changes the 10th
Congressional District, I want
to make it clear that it is my
job and my intention to con-
tinue to work tirelessly to rep-
resent the people of the cur-
rent district through the re-
mainder of the 112th Con-
gress.
Lindsay Fritchman, spokes-
person for the state Demo-
cratic Party, said the pro-
posed maps contain districts
that snake halfway across the
state, split up communities,
and place two Democratic in-
cumbent congressmen togeth-
er in a district -- all for the
sake of helping Republicans
win elections.
The Republicans have pro-
posed a map far more parti-
san and gerrymandered than
anyone would have guessed, a
map that they will now force
into law without any public
input, said Pennsylvania
Democratic Chairman Jim
Burn. We knew that the Re-
publicans would use their
control of the process to draw
a map that benefited Repub-
licans, but we did not expect
them to abuse their power to
this degree, all while shutting
out the public.
Fritchman said some of the
most noticeable gerrymander-
ing includes Scranton and
Wilkes-Barre, which have
been separated from the rest
of Northeastern Pennsylva-
nia.

The lockout ended, and the
NBAs woes were just beginning.
Dwight Howard asked to be
traded. Chris Paul was dealt to
the Lakers, it seemed, until the
league decided he wasnt. So the
Lakers made another trade,
which Kobe Bryant hated.
Nobodys happy, Spurs for-
ward Tim Duncan said.
He was referring to feelings
about terms of the newcollective
bargaining agreement, which in
some ways are so similar to the
old ones that its fair to wonder
exactly what the point of the
five-month lockout was.
But he might as well have been
talking about the superstars who
want new homes, the critics blis-
tering Commissioner David
Stern for forcing one to stay put,
or team officials charged with
having clubs ready to play by
Christmas under bizarre circum-
stances.
Its just too bad, it really is. Its
not reflective right now of the
great product we had, you
know? former coach and ABC/
ESPN analyst Jeff Van Gundy
said. Its one thing to have a
summer and fall of strife due to
labor negotiations. Its another
to be seen as an organization
thats in disarray once you settle
that.
Van Gundy blames money, the
natural place to start. Owners
will save plenty by getting play-
ers to agree to a 12 percent re-
duction in salary costs in the
new deal. But in doing so in time
to salvage a substantial season,
they conceded on many issues
that were necessary to create the
competitive balance they said
they craved.
So Paul and Howard are trying
to force their way from small
markets to big, just as Carmelo
Anthony did last year, and theres
no guaranteed mechanism to
stop them.
But at least everyone was
home for Halloween.
Just like the regular fan out
there, just like you guys, you do
wonder why stuff happened. You
look at it and say, Why did the
lockout happen? Miami guard
Dwyane Wade said. I dont see it
helping right now. Maybe in a
few years well all look back and
see why this lockout happened.
But right nowits not showing its
face at all. ... The competitive
balance thing was a pie-in-the-
sky. We knew that was impossi-
ble, in a sense, especially when
youve got players willing to take

Ted Jackson said Tuesday
night he was unsure if he will
reapply for the head football
coach position at Dallas, a job
he has held for the past 27
years.
I have no
idea, Jackson
said. Things
are a whirl-
wind right
now.
Shortly after
the Dallas
School Board voted 8-1 Monday
to open Jacksons position, his
cell phone began to ring and
didnt stop.
I probably had 100 people
contact me with support, Jack-
son said. Phone calls, text
messages. Im overwhelmed by
the amount of support I got
from players, former players,
friends, neighbors, strangers.
Thats been very nice.
Jackson, though, received
support from only one board
member on Monday Dr.
Bruce Goeringer, who has been
a staunch ally of the coach.
School board president Cath-
erine Wega read a statement
early in Mondays meeting and
prior to the vote that the mo-
tions do not refer to a termina-
tion or dismissal but the open-
ing of a position.
Wega said after the meeting
that Jackson can reapply for the
position. The school district
hadnt posted the position on
its website as of Tuesday night.
Jackson declined to comment
on the lopsided vote or whether
he expected it.
All I heard was hearsay, hear-
say, Jackson said. Thats all I
want to say for now.
Jackson was also grateful to
the 14 people including four
current players who ad-
dressed the board on his behalf
as well as the large number of
people who attended to support

WILKES-BARRE TWP.
During the first period of Tues-
days contest between Wilkes-
Barre/Scranton and Bingham-
ton, the Penguins ZachSill gave
the opposition a scoring chance
when the puck careened off his
skates and deep into the offen-
sive end.
Sill knew he couldnt let the
miscue get to him, but he also
wanted to atone for the play.
Hedidjust that inthethirdpe-
riod, scoring the game-winning
goal as the Penguins overcame
two Senators power-play tallies
to earn a 4-2 win.
Colin McDonald had two
goals and Brad Thiessen stop-
ped 22 of 24 shots in his first
start since Dec. 3.
The win the 500th in fran-
chise history improves the
Penguins to 15-7-1-4 and moves
themintoatwo-point leadinthe
East Division and a one-point
lead in the Eastern Conference.
The Penguins have also won
three in a row and are 5-0-1-1
against Binghamton this season
after posting a 3-5-0-0 mark
against the Senators last season.
Last year they had our num-
ber pretty good, and we have a
lot of returning guys here that
remember that feeling, Sill
said.
The Penguins werent feeling
too well after a first period
whichsawthemendup withon-
ly four shots while the Senators
scored on a two-man advantage
to take an early lead.
After McDonald evened the
score at1witha wrist shot inthe
secondperiod, theSenators cap-
italized on their second two-
manadvantage whenMike Hoff-
man blasted a one-timer from
the faceoff circle with six min-
utes left in the frame.
Those five-on-three goals are
hard to swallow sometimes,
Sill said. Its atoughthingwhen
youre down five-on-three.
With two minutes to go in the
period, the Penguins received
their second power play when
Binghamton captain Mark Par-
rish was whistled for slashing.
Soon after, Ben Street sprung
loose on a breakaway, cruised
past the far post and placed a
badanglebackhander past Bing-
hamton goaltender Robin Lehn-
er to tie things up at 2.
Thetiewouldstanduntil mid-
way through the third period
when Sill, who was posted in
front of the net, deflected a Carl
Sneep shot from the point past
Lehner for the 3-2 lead.
The goal would turn out to be
Sills first game-winner this sea-
son and more than made up for
his miscue earlier in the game.
You try to forget about those
(turnovers), Sill said. It did
make the goal feel good.
Penalty trouble would haunt
the Penguins once more when
Brandon DeFazio was sent off

PITTSBURGH Pittsburgh
Steelers linebacker James Harri-
son has carved out a niche as one
of the NFLs most feared defend-
ers over the last five years by
straddling the line between clean
and dirty play.
After one
dangerous hit
too many, the
league appar-
ently has seen
enough.
The NFL sus-
pended Harri-
son for one
game following
his helmet-to-facemask hit on
Browns quarterback Colt McCoy
last Thursday, making Harrison
the first player to miss game time
as a penalty under the leagues re-
vampedpolicyonsuchcollisions.
Harrisons agent Bill Parise
said Tuesday afternoon Harrison
has already filed an appeal and
expects it to be heard later this
week by Art Shell or Ted Cottrell,
jointly appointed by the NFL and
the players association to hear
such cases.
Theyll have to determine Har-
risons intent when he laid out
McCoy late in the fourth quarter
of Pittsburghs 14-3 victory. The
2008 NFLDefensive Player of the
Year was penalized for roughing
the passer on the play and said
Mondayhe believedthe hit didnt
warrant further punishment.
NFL Executive Vice President
Ray Anderson disagreed, point-
ing out the violation marked the
fifth illegal hit on a quarterback
by Harrison in the last three sea-
sons. The four-time Pro Bowler
has also been fined on two other
occasions for unnecessary rough-
ness over the same period.
Though Harrison hasnt been
fined for such a hit in over a year,

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) Charlie Weis has
begun assembling his coaching staff at Kan-
sas, hiring Berwick grad Ron Powlus to tutor
quarterbacks and Tim Grunhard to work
with the offensive line.
The announcements came Tuesday, four
days after Weis was introduced as the Jay-
hawks head coach.
Powlus and Grunhard both have ties to
Notre Dame, where Weis spent five seasons
as coach.
Powlus played quarterback for the Fight-
ing Irish from 1994-97, and he served as di-
rector of player development and quarter-
backs coach for Weis in South Bend. Powlus
has been at Akron the past two seasons.
Grunhard played for Notre Dame before
an11-year career withthe Kansas City Chiefs.
Hes been head coach at Bishop Miege High
School in suburban Kansas City. Running
backs coach Reggie Mitchell is returning
from Turner Gills staff.

The Spartans, who led from the

well in the fourth quarter.
Valley West led 9-8 after the
first quarter, but went on a 10-
point runearlyinthe secondperi-
od to take a 23-12 halftime lead.
Both teams struggled fromthe
field in the second half,. Howev-
er, Dallas went ice cold from the
free throw line, which proved
costly. The Mountaineers made
just 17-of-32 free throws, includ-
ing several misses on the front
end of one-and-ones.
We shot 75 percent on Satur-
day, but we couldnt duplicate
that tonight, Dallas coach Kelly
Johnson said. I think that was
because our adrenaline was real-
ly high going up against one of
the best teams in the Wyoming
Valley Conference. I give our kids
a lot of the credit. They battled
hard and never gave up.
Valley West got a superb defen-
sive effort from sophomore for-
ward Quieterriua Gross, who
made two eye-catching blocks.
My dad taught me how to
block shots, said Gross, a trans-
fer from Wyoming Valley West,
along with her sister Quinniea.
This is a good team, Im excited
because I think we are going to
get better.
Spartans coachCurt Lloydsaid
his team turned in a roller-coast-
er performance.
It was definitely a tale of two
halves, Lloyd said. We played
pretty well in the first half. We
were taking good shots and re-
bounded well We got into early
foul trouble in the third quarter,
which resulted in Dallas getting
into the double bonus, and that
hurt us.
Dunbar paced Dallas with a
game-high 15 points, Kate Smi-
cherko added eight points for the
Spartans, including a pair of 3-
pointers.

new labor contract includes
more video replay, the chance
for a longer All-Star break
and a small, but likely wel-

chance to get a private room
instead of a roommate during
spring training.
The Associated Press ob-
tained the document that in-
cludes several changes, many
of them starting next year.
Teams from the same divi-
sion will now be allowed to
meet in the playoffs before
the league championship se-
ries. Theres also a ban on

he was considered a repeat of-
fender under the 2011 League
Policies for Players manual, lead-
ing to the suspension.
Harrison, who has been highly
critical of the leagues crackdown
on vicious hits, thanked his fans
for their support on his Twitter
account after the suspension was
levied, adding, Im just going to
move on fromhere and get ready
for my next game.
Barring a successful appeal,
that wont be until the Steelers
(10-3) face St. Louis on Christ-
mas Eve.
Harrison has maintained the
hit didnt warrant any puni-
shment other than the 15-yard
penalty, sayingMondayit was ob-
vious to him that McCoy
chucked and ducked.
The Browns were driving in
Pittsburgh territory with less
than 6 minutes to play when
McCoy took a snap and dropped
back to pass before tucking the
ball to escape the pass rush.
Harrison, who had been in cov-
erage, approached quickly.
McCoy pulled up just before Har-
rison arrived and flipped the ball
to running back Montario Har-
desty. Harrison lowered his hel-
met and smacked McCoy in the
facemask just after the pass was
released, sending the second-
year quarterback to the ground.
McCoy laid on the ground for
several moments before slowly
getting up and walking to the
sideline. He returned a few plays
later to throw a game-clinching
endzone interceptionthendevel-
oped concussion-like symptoms
following the game, leading the
NFLPlayers Associationtorepre-
sentatives to Cleveland to look
into how the team handled
McCoys injury.
While Harrison believed he
should have been flagged but not
suspended, the Steelers pledged
to press onward even if it means
being without their All-Pro line-
backer for next Monday nights
game at San Francisco (10-3).
Were disappointed for James
because we know how hard hes
worked to play within the rules,
coach Mike Tomlin said. We ac-
cept the judgment rendered by
the league office and well move
forward.
The 33-year-old Harrison has
eight sacks this season despite
missing a month with a fractured
right orbital bone and dealing
with persistent back issues.
Hes been quiet this season fol-
lowing a turbulent spring in
which he took shots at NFLCom-
missioner Roger Goodell, calling
Goodell a crook and a devil.
Harrison later apologized, say-
ing his comments were inappro-
priate, though both he and his
teammates have been critical of
theleagues crackdownonwhat it
considers dangerous and overly
aggressive play.
The Steelers were the only
teaminthe league tovote against
the new collective bargaining
agreement in August, citing the
lack of a proper appeals process
regarding fines and suspensions
as one of their main concerns.
NowHarrison will need to rely
on that process to have his sus-
pension reduced.
DANGER

less money to be happy.
Thats what Wade, LeBron
James and Chris Bosh did so
they could team up last summer.
Owners could have attempted to
block future superteam building
with a hard salary cap or fran-
chise tag designations that exist
in the NFL, but the players
fought those changes in an effort
to keep a system that looked like
the old one, giving teams the
ability to exceed the cap by quite
a bit if they were willing to pay a
luxury tax.
The tentative deal on the main
issues wasnt reached until Nov.
26, and Stern said the regular
season would begin on Christ-
mas if the deal was ratified in
time. But it meant free agency
opened the same day as training
camps, forcing some teams to re-
port with barely enough players
for a starting five while their
transactions awaited approval by
the league office.
Its an arbitrary date to have
to start on Christmas. Theres no
magical starting time. Just push
it back. Let them have a normal
free-agent period of a week, 10
days, then have two to three
weeks of training camp with a
few exhibition games. Let them
do what they should do and then
start whenever that date is, Van
Gundy said. Skip steps, I dont
see howthats helpful, other than
its helpful to the pocketbook. I
think sometimes we sacrifice too
many times the product for the
pocketbook.
Van Gundy recalled something
he once heard fromDaryl Morey,
the Rockets general manager
who thought he was getting Pau
Gasol from the Lakers in the
killed three-team trade.
He said every organization
needs a vice president of com-
mon sense, and right now thats
exactly what the NBA needs. A
vice president of common sense
who looks at some of these deci-
sions and says, You know what,
were better than this. Were all
making a ton of money anyway.
If its a little less than a ton, thats
OK. But lets make sure when we
come back, we got the right
product, Van Gundy said. I
mean, the lockout didnt even
help these teams. It wasnt any-
thing about competitive bal-
ance.
Still, fans would have forgot-
ten about it easier with a
smoother start to the season. In-
stead, the news and fallout from
the NBA office, as current own-
ers of the Hornets, killing the
Paul trade came the same night
Stern announced the new CBA
had been ratified. Then came
word that Howard had asked the
Orlando Magic to trade him, in
part because the teamhadnt act-
ed on his personnel recommen-
dations though he said Mon-
day he could be open to staying if
the Magic made the right moves.
Was this really the best way for
the NBA to come back?
Yes and no, Magic coach
Stan Van Gundy said. I think,
you know, its certainly not the
way (the Magic) wanted the
NBA to come back. And I think
the NBA, I cant speak for them,
but I think they would want in
some ways things to be a little bit
more positive than they been.
But at the same time, the Chris
Paul and Dwight Howard situa-
tions have created a tremendous
amount of interest, to the point
where I dont even hear any men-
tion of the lockout anymore
just those situations.
The NBA has really gone to
the top of the sports news in the
last few days in the middle of an
NFL season and everything else.
So the NBA is probably getting
more attention right now than
they normally would at this
point in December. So I would
say theres some positive to it for
them also. Theres not a lot of
positive to it for us, but for to the
NBA in general I think theres
some positive to it for them.
The NFL settled its lockout
early enough that its entire
schedule remained intact minus
one preseason game. The NBA is
giving teams only 16 days and
two exhibition games from the
time business reopened until the
season tips off with a whole
new set of rules to learn in be-
tween.
RUSH
The District 2 Athletic Com-
mittee will hold a hearing today
involving the athletic eligibility
of Eugene Lewis, who trans-
ferred from Wyoming Valley
West to Meyers on Dec. 6.
The hearing is set for 4:15
p.m. at the Wilkes-Barre Career
& Technology Center in Plains
Township.
Lewis is a two-sport standout
who verbally committed in Au-
gust to play football at Penn
State. Valley West declined to
sign the PIAA transfer waiver
that would have allowed Lewis
to play basketball at Meyers. He
has been practicing with the
Meyers team, which is allowed,
but cant participate in games
unless the situation is resolved
in his favor.
Meyers Athletic Director
Mike Namey said he didnt
know whether his school would
request an open or closed hear-
ing. Schools can request a
closed hearing for several rea-
sons, but the main ones are usu-
ally when a students academic
records or family situation will
be part of the
testimony. The
athletic com-
mittee then de-
termines
whether the
school has a
valid argument
for a closed
hearing.
Open hearings allow the
media and public to attend, al-
though the latter rarely is pre-
sent.
District 2 chairman Frank
Majikes said todays hearing
will not involve the transfer of
Lewis sister, Alexis, from Valley
West to Holy Redeemer be-
cause no paperwork has been
filed.
Any decision rendered by Dis-
trict 2 can be appealed to the
PIAA Board of Directors.
Majikes and fellow committee
members Pat Patte and Mau-
reen Williams will not be in-
volved in the closed-door exec-
utive session where deliberation
and voting will take place be-
cause they are employed by the
Wilkes-Barre Area School Dis-
trict. However, they can attend
the hearing and ask questions
to representatives of both
schools and members of the Le-
wis family.
Valley West has no employees
on the athletic committee.

him. He didnt attend the meet-
ing.
Im just overwhelmed by the
support I got, Jackson said.
People came by my house last
night, were calling me.
Jackson has a 227-82-3 record
at Dallas and his teams have
posted one losing season in his
27 years at the helm. However,
the program has spent the last
four years on probation institut-
ed by the District 2 Athletic
Committee, the local extension
of the PIAA.
The first two years of proba-
tion were for a bench-clearing
brawl in the 2008 season open-
er against Williamsport. The
probation was extended
through the 2010 and 2011 sea-
sons after an incident where
players urinated on the tennis
courts at halftime of a game at
Tunkhannock on Sept. 18, 2009.
The District 2 Athletic Com-
mittee imposed seven sanctions
in all on Dallas, including sus-
pending Jackson for the entire
2010 season. The PIAA Board
of Directors reduced that penal-
ty to four games after Dallas
appealed the District 2 sanc-
tions.
Jackson received an unfavor-
able performance review from
Dallas Principal Jeffrey Shaffer
earlier this month. He also met
with Shaffer, Superintendent
Frank Galicki and Athletic Di-
rector Nancy Roberts last week.
Dallas finished 10-2 this sea-
son and played for the District
2 Class 3A championship for
the second time in three years.
Jackson was named the Wyom-
ing Valley Conference Big
School Coach of the Year for a
third consecutive year by the
Wyoming Valley Conference
Football Coaches Association.

WASHINGTON Scott
Hartnell extended his goal-
scoring streak to six games,
Marc-Andre Bourdon got his
first NHL goal and the Philadel-
phia Flyers beat the Washing-
ton Capitals 5-1 Tuesday night
for their sixth straight victory.
Philadelphia, which owns the
best record in the Eastern Con-
ference, built a 4-0 lead in the
second period and coasted to
the finish. Ilya Bryzgalov stop-
ped 31 shots, the lone flaw in
his performance a tap-in by Jeff
Halpern with 6:01 left.
The Flyers were without the
NHLs leading scorer, Claude
Giroux, who is out indefinitely
with a concussion. The right
wing accumulated 16 goals and
23 assists in Philadelphias first
28 games, but in this one the
Flyers generated more than
enough offense without him.
Red Wings 4, Penguins 1
PITTSBURGH Pavel Dat-
syuk had a goal and an assist
and Jimmy Howard stopped 25
shots to lead the Detroit Red
Wings to a victory over the
injury-depleted Pittsburgh
Penguins.
Johan Franzen added his
team-leading 14th goal for De-
troit and Danny Cleary provid-
ed some insurance with a pair
of late goals as the Red Wings
won their third straight.
Evgeni Malkin scored his 11th
goal of the season for Pitts-
burgh, but the Penguins went 0
for 4 on the power play and
couldnt connect on their few
quality chances.
The Penguins played without
captain Sidney Crosby, who
missed his third straight game
and 23rd overall this season
following a recurrence of con-
cussion-like symptoms. Pitts-
burgh is 1-2-0 during Crosbys
current absence, with both
losses to members of the
leagues elite.
Stars 1, Rangers 0
NEW YORK Trevor Daley
broke up a scoreless game with
4:59 left, Richard Bachman
made 34 saves to win his sec-
ond straight start, and the Dal-
las Stars beat the New York
Rangers.
It appeared neither team
would be able to break through,
as few scoring chances were
generated during the slogfest
that included multiple whistles
for icing and offsides.
But Daley finally found the
net, finishing off a give-and-go
play with Mike Ribeiro in the
closing minutes. That was
enough to give Bachman the
win in his second career start.
He also beat Los Angeles 2-1 on
Sunday at the start of Dallas
five-game trip.
Henrik Lundqvist was the
hard-luck loser despite making
27 saves and shaking off a sec-
ond-period injury. The Rangers
lost for only the third time in 10
games (7-2-1).
Devils 3, Panthers 2, SO
SUNRISE, Fla. Ilya Ko-
valchuk and Patrik Elias scored
in the shootout and Martin
Brodeur stopped both Florida
attempts to lift the New Jersey
Devils.
Elias and Zach Parise had the
New Jersey goals in regulation.
Brodeur made 24 saves to help
the Devils rally from a two-goal
deficit for their fourth win in
five games.
Kris Versteeg scored twice
for Florida, which dropped its
third straight. Jose Theodore
stopped 32 shots.
Parise tied it at 2 when he
scored at 7:40 of the third peri-
od. Henrik Tallinders slap shot
from straight on just inside the
blue line went wide of the net
to Theodores right. The puck
ricocheted off the end boards
and went right to Parise, who
slammed it in for his 10th goal.
Canadiens 5, Islanders 3
MONTREAL Petteri No-
kelainen scored with 6:15 re-
maining as the Montreal Cana-
diens recovered after giving up
a two-goal lead in the third
period, beating the New York
Islanders.
Nokelainen drove a slap shot
past Al Montoya from the right
point for the tiebreaking goal
moments after Montreal squan-
dered a 3-1 advantage. Hal Gill
added an empty-netter in the
final minute.
Bruins 3, Kings 0
BOSTON Brad Marchand
scored twice and Tuukka Rask
earned his first shutout of the
season, leading the Boston
Bruins to a victory over Los
Angeles in the Kings first game
under interim coach John Ste-
vens.
Rask, the backup for Vezina
and Conn Smythe Trophy-
winner Tim Thomas, made 41
saves to extend his shutout
streak to 95 minutes, 10 sec-
onds. Rich Peverley also scored
for the defending Stanley Cup
champions, who won for the
16th time in 19 games.
Jonathan Quick stopped 19
shots for the Kings, who lost
their fifth consecutive game.
The Bruins were without
defenseman Zdeno Chara, who
injured his left knee in Sat-
urdays game in Columbus.
The Kings fired Terry Murray
on Monday and replaced him
with his assistant.
Senators 3, Sabres 2
BUFFALO, N.Y. Jared
Cowen scored 45 seconds into
overtime, giving the Ottawa
Senators a victory over the
Buffalo Sabres.
Cowen pinched into the slot
and redirected a pass from Erik
Karlsson in the right corner.
Milan Michalek and Peter
Regin also scored for Ottawa,
which came back after trailing
2-1 in the first period. Michalek,
who leads the NHL with 19
goals, left the game with 5
1
2
minutes remaining in the sec-
ond period after colliding with
Karlsson.
Craig Anderson stopped 27
shots.
Leafs 2, Hurricanes 1, OT
TORONTO Tim Connolly
scored his second goal of the
game at 44 seconds of overtime
to lift the Toronto Maple Leafs
to a win over the Carolina Hur-
ricanes.
The Leafs center went to the
goal and had an empty net to
shoot at when Joffrey Lupuls
shot dribbled past Cam Ward.
Ward, who made 36 saves,
broke his stick on a goal post in
frustration after the winning
goal.
Blue Jackets 2,
Canucks 1, SO
COLUMBUS, Ohio James
Wisniewski had the last of
Columbus three shootout goals
and Steve Mason made several
big stops in his first game after
a 27-day benching to lead the
Blue Jackets over the Vancouv-
er Canucks.
Jeff Carter had the Blue Jack-
ets power-play goal in the first
period off assists from Wisniew-
ski and Letestu.
Predators 2, Flames 1
NASHVILLE, Tenn. Colin
Wilson scored a power-play goal
at 3:31 of the third period to
give Nashville a victory.

Flyers beat Caps,
win 6th straight
for interference with less than
three minutes to play.
The Penguins penalty kill
came up big, limiting Bingham-
tons chances and forcing the
play deep in the Senators end af-
ter the power play expired.
The Penguins penalty kill was
4-for-6 with the only tallies com-
ing on five-on-threes. Sill said
the more accurate way to judge
the penalty kill is by its success
against the Binghamton power
play late in the game.
Thats the one that really
counted, he said. The game
was ontheline. Thats theonewe
want to remember.
Coach John Hynes agreed,
adding he liked the way his pen-
alty killers responded after giv-
ing up the two five-on-three
goals.
(The third-period kill) was
huge for us, Hynes said. It was
game-changing kill for us. That
was momentum.
The momentum led to an ag-
gressive forecheck late in the
game that prevented Bingham-
ton from pulling Lehner until
there was a minute left.
And even then it was too late
as Eric Tangradi dished a pass to
McDonald for an empty net goal
witheight seconds left tomake it
4-2.
NOTES
Despite Scott Munroes pair
of shutouts against the Senators
this season, Hynes elected to
start Thiessen. The move paid
off as Thiessen looked sharp
most of the night.
Brad was in a situation where
he hadnt played in a week. We
gave hima little bit of time off to
regroupandget his game going,
Hynes said. He looked good in
practice, worked his way back
andit was his opportunitytoplay
tonight.
D Joey Mormina was
scratched for the second straight
game after suffering an injury
last week in Binghamton. Other
scratches for the Penguins were
D Boris Valabik (injury), RW
Paul Thompson, RW Brian Day
(injury) and RW Keven Veilleux
(injury).
The Penguins recalled F
Chris Barton from Wheeling on
Tuesday. Barton, 24, was leading
all ECHL rookies with 26 points
(15 goals, 11 assists). He did not
dress for Tuesdays game.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. Scott
Pioli spoke quietly and carefully,
not at all like his reputation
might suggest.
He had just fired coach Todd
Haley after a miserable 5-8 start,
leaving the Chiefs general man-
ager to explain the organiza-
tions failures.
Pioli pointed his finger right at
himself.
We have a locker room that
has talent. We also have a good
makeup of character in that lock-
er room, Pioli said, but its
abundantly clear that were not
in a spot we need to be with our
record where it is and our team
in a position it is. I need to do a
better job.
Kansas City has lost five of its
last six games to fall from a tie
for first in the AFC West to the
brink of another losing season.
After winning the division title
last year, devastating injuries
and discouraging losses have
quickly turned the environment
surrounding the team toxic.
The Chiefs 37-10 loss to the
New York Jets on Sunday culmi-
nated in the decision to fire Ha-
ley, once a rising star in the NFL,
and the appointment of defen-
sive coordinator Romeo Crennel
as interim coach for the final
three games of the regular sea-
son. The Chiefs host the unbea-
ten Green Bay Packers on Sun-
day.
There was no shortage of
blame to heap on Haley, from an
unorthodox approach to training
camp that left the team woefully
unprepared to the decision to
stick with journeyman Tyler Pal-
ko as his quarterback once Matt
Cassel went down with a season-
ending injury.
But there has
been just as
much reason to
blame Pioli for
the shortcom-
ings, some-
thing he was
quick to ac-
knowledge.
I do believe in the players we
have here, Pioli said. We need
to continue to improve this ros-
ter and improve the depth of this
football team.
Depth may be the biggest rea-
son the Chiefs have struggled.
Palko has led the offense to
two touchdowns in four games.
Jackie Battle and Thomas Jones
have been unable to fill in for Pro
Bowl running back Jamaal Char-
les, who was lost for the season
with a torn ACL. The tight end
position has been virtually non-
existent since Tony Moeaki sus-
tained the same injury, and Pro
Bowl safety Eric Berrys torn
ACL has left an enormous void
in the secondary.
The fact that the cupboard
was bare was particularly discou-
raging given the reputation Pioli
cultivated during his time in the
front office of the New England
Patriots.
After the NFL lockout wiped
away much of the offseason and
forced teams to scramble to sign
free agents, it was thought that
Pioli would be able to shine. Hes
considered among the best in
the game at finding players who
may have slipped under the ra-
dar, one of the reasons hes been
honored several times as the
leagues executive of the year.
Instead, Pioli brought in just a
handful of players and hardly
took a bite out of the salary cap,
leaving the Chiefs with more
money available than nearly ev-
ery other franchise in the league.
Piolis inability to land talent
on the open market hasnt been
his only shortfall.

need to do better

SEATTLE When Pete
Carroll looks back at his second
season in charge in Seattle, he
can be impressed by a midsea-
son turnaround after the Sea-
hawks discovered a long-absent
running game and a youthful
defense that improved through-
out the season.
And hell likely lament two
plays that could ultimately be
what keeps the Seahawks (6-7)
from a second straight postsea-
son trip.
Seattles impressive second-
half charge continued on Mon-
day night with a 30-13 rout of
St. Louis for the Seahawks
fourth win in the last five
games. The surge has brought
them back to the fringes of the
NFCwild card chase and been a
remarkable turnaround from
Seattles 2-6 start.
With three weeks left, Seattle
is one of the hottest teams in
the league thanks to a young,
stingy defense and the contin-
ued success of running back
Marshawn Lynch, who topped
100 yards for the fifth time in
the last six games on Monday
night with 115 yards on 23 car-
ries and had his ninth straight
game with a touchdown.
We have some young talent.
We have guys that are buying
into what our coaches are tell-
ing us and the skys the limit.
As long as we can stay healthy,
stay focused and just keep
working hard, I think well be
fine, Seattle QB Tarvaris Jack-
son said. Like you said, we
have a lot of talent all around
the board and most of them are
young guys. We have the right
amount of veterans in there to
kind of add a good mix to it to
make sure we keep those guys
straight.
But even if Seattle manages
to win out and gets to 9-7 for
the season, it still might be too
late for postseason aspirations.
And the Seahawks can point to
a 12-minute lapse at home in
late November when Washing-
ton rallied to score the final 16
points in a 23-17 victory.
When Carroll was asked
about the loss to Washington,
he called it a two-play game.
Its not that simple as Seattle
did plenty to give away a 10-
point lead in the closing min-
utes, but Carroll wasnt entirely
wrong.
The Seahawks led 17-7 with
12 minutes remaining then
gave up a 28-yard touchdown
run to Roy Helu and a 50-yard
touchdown pass from Rex
Grossman to Anthony Arm-
strong on third-and-19 with 6
minutes remaining.
It wasnt us blowing it. They
made their plays on us when
they had to and they got a win.
So unfortunately thats a huge
game to us, Carroll said in ref-
erence to the Washington loss.
Think about that game and
how important it was. We had
this whole thing rolling.
Seattle trails Detroit and At-
lanta by two games for the final
two wild card spots. The Sea-
hawks are also one game be-
hind Dallas and Chicago. The
Falcons and Cowboys own tie-
breakers over Seattle due to
head-to-head victories earlier
this season.
To even make it interesting,
the Seahawks must win out, be-
ginning Sunday at the Bears be-
fore returning home to face San
Francisco and closing the sea-
son at improving Arizona.

CHARLOTTE, N.C The Carolina
Panthers have signed rookie kicker Adi
Kunalic, but have decided to keep veter-
an Olindo Mare on the roster.
Kunalic, an undrafted rookie from
Nebraska, attended training camp with
the Panthers but was cut before the sea-
son.
Mare missed a 36-yard field goal with
5:26 left in the game Sunday that would
have given Carolina a 26-24 lead against
Atlanta. Instead, the Falcons scored
two plays later on a 75-yard pass by
Matt Ryan to beat the Panthers 31-23.
Mare also missed a tying field goal
earlier in the season against Minnesota.
To make room on the roster, the Pan-
thers put linebacker Jason Phillips on
injured reserve with a right calf injury.
The Panthers visit Houston on Sun-
day.
Panthers add kicker Kunalic to challenge Mare
DAVIE, Fla. A number of key Dol-
phin players expressed their surprise
Tuesday that coach Tony Sparano was
fired with only three games remaining
in the season.
Chad Henne, Will Allen, Davone
Bess, Dan Carpenter, Brian Hartline
and Brandon Fields spoke with the
media while taking part in the annual
Fins for Kids Holiday Toy Event at the
Dolphins training camp. More than 160
local children attended the party.
Sparano was told he was being let go
on Monday, a day after the team lost to
the Philadelphia Eagles to go 4-9 on the
season.
Its like losinga familymember, said
defensive back Allen, who like many of
the other Dolphins was wearing a Santa
Claus hat. Obviously, everybody in our
business understands the nature of it.
Were graded on wins and losses and,
unfortunately, Tony was head honcho
and all that responsibility was going to
fall on him and he knows that.
In his almost four years as Dolphins
coach, Sparano went 29-32. But this sea-
son the Dolphins were 0-7 before they
went on a four-game winning streak.
Its a shame he had to go out that
way, said Henne. The quarterback has
been nursing a shoulder injury to his
non-throwing left arm for much of the
season. He and Jeff Ireland drafted me.
I wish I could have himfor another year
as my head coach because I respect the
hell out of him.
Weve been through a lot of the same
things because its either the headcoach
or the quarterback who gets blamed for
a lot of things.
While the players admitted to being
caught off-guard by Sparanos firing,
they diplomatically didnt second-guess
the decision.
You know thats a decision that has
nothingtodowithme, saidplacekicker
Carpenter when asked if Sparano
shouldve been allowed to finish the sea-
son. Thats something that Jeff Ireland
and Stephen Ross had to make.
It is what it is and its a business,
wide receiver Bess added. Manage-
ment and players, we all have responsib-
ilities. If youre not productive with
what youre doing they want to find
someone who could get it done.
Todd Bowles, the Dolphins assistant
head coach/secondary, has been elevat-
ed to interim head coach. The players
whove worked closely with Bowles
speak highly of his abilities.
Hes my coach and hes a great guy
and a great coach, Allen said. Hes
helped me out tremendously over the
past five or six years. So for me as a play-
er its going to be normal.
Anumber of the offensive players said
they havent had much contact with
Bowles. However, most thought he
could step up to the task.
I dont knowa lot about him, receiv-
er Hartline said. Its an opportunity for
him to get his feet wet and maybe hell
be a head coach. Im not sure a lot will
change.
He knows what its like to be an NFL
player, Henne said of Bowles, who
played for eight seasons in the NFL.
Hes very soft-spoken, he doesnt talk a
lot, but hes very competitive.

Like it or not, the BCS cham-
pionship game will be a rematch
between LSU and Alabama.
Oklahoma State complained
it should have had a shot at the
top-ranked Tigers, BCS bashers
had more fodder for the we-
need-a-playoff debate and many
fans scrunched up their noses at
the thought of another field
goal-kicking contest like the
previous incarnation of the
Game of the Century.
The good news, particularly if
youre in the no-rematch camp,
is that there are 34 other bowl
games with some great players,
great matchups and even some
interesting nicknames, starting
with that rascally Honey Badger
in the Bayou.
Heres a rundown of some of
the things to look for over the
next month or so:
TOP GAMES
Even if youre not a fan of LSU
and Alabama getting a return
engagement in the BCS title
game, you HAVE to watch. It is
for the national title, after all.
But there are plenty of other
games worth watching.
Fiesta Bowl, Stanford vs.
Oklahoma State, Jan. 2, Glen-
dale, Ariz. If the national
championship game were to
have an undercard, this could be
it. Two great offenses, two great
quarterbacks in Andrew Luck
and Brandon Weeden expect
lots of yards and points in what
has the potential to be the most
entertaining bowl of them all.
Rose Bowl, Wisconsin vs.
Oregon, Jan. 2, Pasadena, Calif.
Speaking of shows, how
about Badgers running back
Montee Ball and Ducks dynamo
LaMichael James trading jukes
and touchdowns? Going to be
some day on the couch the day
after New Years.
Alamo Bowl, Baylor vs, Wash-
ington, Dec. 29, San Antonio,
Texas Robert Griffin III on
one side, Keith Price and Chris
Polk on the other, not a lot of
defense. Yeah, this is going to be
good.
Cotton Bowl, Arkansas vs.
Kansas State, Jan. 6, Arlington,
Texas Arkansas two losses
were to LSU and Alabama, K-
States to the two big Oklahoma
schools. All you need to know.
PLAYERS TO WATCH
Robert Griffin III, Baylor. The
Heisman Trophy? You may have
heard of it and him.
Andrew Luck, Stanford. The
Cardinal quarterback is the
fourth player to be Heisman
runner-up in consecutive sea-
sons, a threat to pass or run, the
likely No. 1 overall pick in the
NFL draft.
Tyrann Mathieu, LSU. The
Honey Badger has a knack for
coming up with big plays at big
moments. Now he gets his
chance on the big stage.
Case Keenum, Houston. The
sixth-year senior will leave
Houston with his own section in
the NCAA record book. Being
relegated to the TicketCity Bowl
after a late-season loss will
likely have him motivated to go
out with a big game.
Justin Blackmon, Oklahoma
State. The All-American is just
the second two-time winner of
the Biletnikoff Award, given to
the nations top receiver, and a
big-play threat every touch.
Trent Richardson, Alabama.
The Crimson Tides running
back won the Doak Walker
Award as the nations best run-
ning back and was third in Heis-
man voting.
Montee Ball, Wisconsin. Mon-
tee should have a ball at the
Rose Bowl.
LaMichael James, Oregon.
Give him a seam and hes gone;
a likely Heisman finalist for the
second straight season if that
elbow hadnt kept popping out
of place.
BOWL SPONSORS
After a run of dot-coms, food-
related companies have been
kings of the bowl-game sponsor-
ships recently, and this year is
no different with seven: Tosti-
tos, Beef OBradys, Chik-fil-A,
Outback, Little Caesars Pizza,
Kraft Fight Hunger and Famous
Idaho Potato.
OK, so Fight Hunger is more
of a cause and the Idaho bowl is
sponsored by a spud commis-
sion, but this is a loosely based
count.
Financial companies are right
behind with six and the automo-
tive industry pulls in with five.
There are also sponsorships
from a helicopter company, an
aerospace and defense contrac-
tor, a department store, a mov-
ing company, one that sells
blank T-shirts and sweatshirts
that can later be screened, and a
ticket broker.
NICKNAMES
Every team has players with
nicknames. Heres some of the
coolest we could find:
Honey Badger, LSU defensive
back Tyrann Mathieu. He re-
portedly doesnt like the ode to
the furry and ferocious little
beast, but its not going any-
where.
RG3, Baylor quarterback
Robert Griffin III. Combination
of initials and being the third in
a line of Robert Griffins sounds
like a cool new line of shoes.
Wolf Man, Utah running back
John White. Has a tattoo of a
wolf on his chest because
wolves roll in packs and eat
meat to the bone.
Sharks, Oklahomas defensive
backs. Pulled from a Lil Wayne
song, quite catchy.
ODDS
Based on the close game they
played the first time around, its
no wonder the BCS champion-
ship game between LSU and
Alabama had the closest odds
among the 35 bowls, opening at
1 point on the Glantz-Culver line
and a pick em as of Tuesday.
Next closest was 1
1
2 points:
Arkansas State over Northern
Illinois in the GoDaddy.com
Bowl and Auburn over Virginia
in the Chik-fil-A Bowl.
The biggest spread? Oklaho-
ma at plus-14 over Iowa in the
Insight Bowl. Highest over/
under is 74
1
2 points between
Oklahoma State and Stanford in
the Fiesta Bowl.
DISTANCES
Last bowl season, several
teams had the chance to play in
their home cities, including
SMU, which played the Armed
Forces Bowl in its own stadium
because TCUs was being reno-
vated.
This year, there wont be any
so-called home games, but there
are several teams that wont
have to go very far: LSU in the
BCS title game (its in New
Orleans), Texas A&M in the
Meineke Car Care Bowl in
Houston, Florida State at the
Champs Sports Bowl in Orlan-
do, and Rutgers in the Pinstripe
Bowl at Yankee Stadium.
Western Michigan also is
playing in Detroit, Louisiana-
Lafayette in New Orleans, Van-
dy in Nashville and N.C. State in
Charlotte.
The longest trip will be
Southern Mississippi in the
Hawaii Bowl, a distance of
(were ballparking here) 4,200
miles.
Longest kids-in-the-car trip?
Illinois at the Kraft Fight Hun-
ger Bowl in San Francisco, a
distance of just over 2,100 miles.
Thats roughly 31 hours with
long, horizon-rarely-changes
sections through the Midwest
and Nevada, so good luck if you
try that one.

Interesting lineup

NEW YORK Two men
sued Syracuse mens basketball
coach Jim Boeheim and the
school for defamation Tuesday,
saying they were vilified as liars
out for money after they ac-
cused his longtime assistant of
molesting them.
Former Syracuse ball boys
and stepbrothers Bobby Davis
and Mike Lang said they were
molested by Bernie Fine, who
has since been fired and has de-
nied the allegations. A third
man also has accused the 65-
year-old Fine, who had been
Boeheims top assistant since
1976.
It really hurt me to learn
coachBoeheimhadaccusedme
of lying, Davis said, reading
froma statement at a news con-
ference after the lawsuit was fil-
ed in New York State Supreme
Court.
When the allegations sur-
faced Nov. 17, Boeheim
staunchly supported Fine, say-
ing the accusations were lies to
capitalize on the Penn State
child sex abuse case.
The Penn State thing came
out, and the kid behind this is
trying to get money, Boeheim
told the Syracuse Post-Stan-
dard. If he gets this, hes going
to sue the university and Ber-
nie. What do you think is going
to happen at Penn State? You
know how much money is go-
ing to be involved in civil suits?
Id say about $50 million. Thats
what this is about. Money.
And in an interview with
ESPN, which broke the story,
Boeheimsaid: It is a bunch of a
thousand lies that (Davis) has
told. You dont think it is a little
funny that his cousin is coming
forward?
Lang said that when Boe-
heim suggested my little
brother and I were lying, he
felt sick to my stomach.
University spokesman Kevin
Quinn declined comment. The
U.S. attorneys office is investi-
gating.
Victim advocates reacted an-
grily to Boeheims initial com-
ments and called for him to re-
sign or be fired. He later said he
was wrong to question the mo-
tives of the accusers.
Thats not enough, said attor-
ney Gloria Allred, who is repre-
senting the stepbrothers, and
whose recent clients include a
woman who accused presiden-
tial candidate Herman Cain of
making unwelcome sexual ad-
vances.
Boeheims statements im-
pugning the veracity and moti-
vations of Mr. Davis and Mr.
Lang were particularly disturb-
ing given his 35 years of oppor-
tunity to observe Fine at close
quarters, and at least seven
years of opportunity to see Fine
with Bobby Davis on trips, at
practices, in Manley Field
House and at games, Allred
said.
Boeheim softened his stance
in the weeks since the accusa-
tions became public.
Although Boeheim eventu-
ally acknowledged that he mis-
spoke, those words came too
little too late, Allredsaid. One
of Syracuses most respected in-
dividuals had already told the
world repeatedly that Bobby
Davis and Mike Lang were
nothing but liars and out for
money and nothing else.
Boeheim has not suffered
any consequences in his em-
ployment for using his position
of power within the university
to make these false, inflamma-
tory and injurious statements
about Bobby and Mike.
On Nov. 27, Zach Tomaselli,
of Lewiston, Maine, also ac-
cused Fine, and ESPN aired a
tape inwhicha womanit identi-
fiedas Fines wife tells Davis she
knew everything that was go-
ing on. After Fine was fired that
night, Boeheimreleaseda state-
ment saying he regretted any
statements he made that
might have been insensitive to
victims of abuse.
On Nov. 29, Boeheim apol-
ogized, but said again he didnt
regret defending his old friend
based on the information he
had at the time, adding that he
never worried about his job sta-
tus in 36 years.
By Dec. 2, he was far more
contrite.
I believe I misspoke very
badly inmy response tothe alle-
gations that have been made,
said Boeheim, who spoke slow-
ly andpausedfrequently during
a postgame news conference. I
shouldnt have questionedwhat
the accusers expressed or their
motives. I am really sorry that I
did that, and I regret any harm
that I caused.
Davis, now39, saidinthelaw-
suit that Fine started molesting
himwhen he was about 11years
old and that the sexual contact
continued for almost two dec-
ades. A ball boy for six years,
Davis said the abuse occurred
at Fines home, at Syracuse bas-
ketball facilities and on team
road trips, including the 1987
Final Four.
Lang, 45, has told ESPN that
Finebeganmolestinghimwhile
he was in fifth or sixth grade.
The suit said Boeheims of-
fice was always near Fines
and next door at times and
that Fines door was generally
open, except when Davis was
inside with the assistant coach.
The lawsuit contradicts Boe-
heims assertion to the Post-
Standard that Davis went on
roadtrips only if he was babysit-
ting Fines kids; the suit said he
traveled with the team before
Fine had children and at times
when the assistant didnt bring
along his family.
The suit includes Davis as-
sertion that BoeheimsawDavis
lying on the bed in Fines hotel
room in his shorts during the
1987 Final Four. In a Nov. 17 tel-
ephone interview with The As-
sociatedPress, Boeheimdenied
ever going to the assistants
room, much less seeing Davis
there.

Wisconsin
holds off
in-state foe
BRECKENRIDGE, Colo. Basking in
the sun and snow, surrounded by his fans
andfriends, KevinPearcecarvedsweet turns
down a gentle run called Springmeier
kicking up just enough powder behind him
to remind people that, yes, this kid can still
ride.
The three trips he took down that hill,
some might say, were a storybook ending to
a life-altering journey that began when
Pearcenearlydiedduringa trainingaccident
while preparing for the Olympics.
Or was it a new beginning?
Thats kindof mygoal, Pearce said, is to
continue to have special days like this.
Yes, Tuesday was a special day the 24-
year-old champion snowboarders first trip
down the mountain since Dec. 31, 2009,
which is when he banged his head on the
halfpipe in Utah while trying a difficult trick
that, had he pulled it off a few months after
that, might havewonhima goldmedal at the
Vancouver Olympics.
The accident left himina coma andhis life
hung in the balance for several days. When
he finally awoke, severe head trauma turned
the most basic of activities walking, talk-
ing, seeing straight into pressing chal-
lenges for the young athlete.
In the back of his mind, though, as he la-
bored through his grueling rehabilitation,
Pearcenever gaveuphopethat hemight ride
again if not across a rail or through a half-
pipe, then at least down a mountain.
On a sunsplashed afternoon in the Colora-
do high country, 712 days after the accident,
he did.
The day began with a trip to Vail, where
Pearce hookedupwithsnowboardingmogul
Jake Burton and the close-knit group of pro
snowboarders who call themselves the
Frends because there is no I in friend-
ship.
After a fewmellowtrips onthat mountain,
Pearce came to Breckenridge to ride with
other friends, along with the public, a few
hundred of whom cheered when he walked
out of the lunchroom and toward the lift,
ready to ride again.
I didnt knowif anyone was goingtoshow
up today, Pearce said. When I walked out
thereandtherewereall thesepeoplethereto
support me and have my back the way they
have for the last two years, it brings this feel-
ing. Its a hard feeling to explain.

Postal closings postponed
The U.S. Postal Service on Tuesday
agreed to delay the closing of 252 mail
processing centers, including one in
Scranton, and 3,700 local post offices
until mid-May.
In a statement, the cash-strapped
agency said it would hold off on clos-
ings by several weeks to give Congress
more time to pass legislation that
would give it more authority and liq-
uidity to stave off bankruptcy. The
Postal Service, which is expected to
default Friday on a $5.5 billion pay-
ment to the Treasury, is forecast to lose
a record $14.1 billion next year.
Last week, the Postal Service said it
planned to begin closing processing
centers as early as April, and shutter
some post offices early next year.
Record Boeing jet order
Southwest Airlines is placing a huge
order for a redesigned and more fuel-
efficient version of Boeing Co.s most
popular plane, the 737.
Its the biggest firm order in Boeings
history by number of planes 208
and by list-price value, at nearly $19
billion.
Southwest committed to buy 150 of
the yet-to-be-built 737 Max and will
become the first carrier to get one.
Southwest will also buy 58 current 737
jets, adding to 142 it already has on
order.
Primerica going on its own
Citigroup Inc., the third-biggest U.S.
bank, will sell its remaining stake in
life insurer Primerica Inc. as Chief
Executive Officer Vikram Pandit com-
pletes the banks exit that started al-
most two years ago.
Citigroup will sell about 8 million
shares in a public offering, the Duluth,
Ga.-based insurer said Tuesday in a
statement. Primerica last month
agreed to buy back 8.92 million shares
held by New York-based Citigroup for
$22.42 a share, or about $200 million.
New Iraq city gets go-ahead
Officials from the National Invest-
ment Commission of Iraq said Tuesday
that theyve signed a memorandum of
understanding with a consortium of
Michigan companies to plan and build
a new city on the outskirts of the cap-
ital where 500,000 people could live,
shop and work.
The agreement gives the consortium
what it needs to take the next step
raising the $5.5 billion needed to build
the city to get the project under way.

BUSINESS S E C T I O N B

A shot in the dark
brought a few seconds of
fame to one local business
after its logo was featured
in a recent episode of the
NBC show The Office.
Bob Thomas, operations
manager for Wilkes-Barre
based Fitness Headquarters
said he thought it was a
joke when someone called
him late one Friday evening
to ask if it was OK to use
the businesss logo on an
episode of The Office.
The show, which portrays
the antics of employees of a
fictional Scranton paper
company, regularly in-
cludes references to real ar-
ea businesses.
It was probably over a
year and a half ago that we
sent in to be included, but
it was a shot in the dark,
said Thomas, who has
worked for the company
since it opened in 1996. I
totally forgot about it and
thought it was a prank
when they called. They
said an episode came up
that involved fitness equip-
ment and they wanted to
use the logo. I just told
them to email me the de-
tails and on Monday morn-
ing, there it was an email
from the NBC art depart-
ment.
Thomas said NBC asked
him to sign off that he
wouldnt seek compensa-
tion for use of the logo,
which appeared on the side
of a truck delivering fitness
equipment ordered by the
character Dwight for an on-
site gym in the Dunder Mif-
flin building. Fitness Head-
quarters did not pay any-
thing for the approximately
three seconds of screen
time about 12 minutes into
the Mrs. California epi-
sode of the popular net-
work show, which is also
shown in syndication, Tho-
mas said.
Ironically, Thomas said
the people who have com-
mented on the moment of
fame have been suppliers
and customers from out of
the area. Still, Thomas said
he enjoyed seeing his em-
ployer featured on one of
his favorite shows.
It was really pretty
cool, he said.

EW YORK Electronics retailer
Best Buy said Tuesday that its
third-quarter net income fell 29 per-
cent as it cut prices in popular cate-
gories suchas tablets andTVs to drive
sales and traffic during the busy holi-
day season.
Its adjusted earnings missed analy-
sts expectations, and its shares tum-
bled 15.5 percent.
The company, which is up against
tough competition from discounters
and online retailers, took profit-bust-
ing measures that includedincreasing
proved traffic.
Net income for the three months
endedNov. 26fell to$154million; that
compares with $217 million last year.
Revenue rose 2 percent to $12.1 bil-
lion from$11.9 billion a year ago. Rev-
enue in U.S. stores open at least one
year rose 1 percent boosted by a 20
percent increase in online revenue.
The company has been focusing on
expanding its online offerings andser-
vices such as free shipping, connect-
ing devices to the Internet and letting
customers pick up items ordered on-
line in stores. Meanwhile, it has been
reducing its square footage in the U.S.
markdowns and spending more on ad-
vertising.
CEO Brian Dunn said customers
are firmly focused on value this holi-
day.
We took decisive actions to drive
our business, he said. These ac-
tions, while negatively impacting
gross margin, significantly resonated
with customers and resulted in im-

WASHINGTONAmeri-
can consumers spent their
money in November at the
slowest rate in five months,
suggesting the economy
might not grow quite as fast
as expected in the fourth

Commerce Department re-

gravitated toward cars and

Other economists, such as
Joshua Shapiro of MFR Inc.,
say revisions to prior retail-
sales data showthat consum-
er spending remains healthy.
The increase insales inOcto-
ber, for instance, was revised
upto0.6percent from0.5per-

was revised up to1.3 percent
from1.1percent.

Flags will hang
limp for most of
today under lim-
ited sunshine
and slightly
warmer than
normal after-
noon tempera-
tures. Indeed, a
very lazy day
weather-wise.
Thickening
clouds tonight
will be leading
the way for
warmer air to
move in on
Thursday with a
small amount of
rain, probably a
quarter inch or
less. A shower,
rain, or sleet
could arrive later
tonight, but tem-
peratures will
remain above
freezing.
Clearing and
colder weather
will follow on
Friday with dry
conditions for
Saturday. A snow
shower is possi-
ble Sunday and
snow for
Christmas is still
just a dream.
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: A storm system will be responsible for showers and thunderstorms from
Texas, through the central Plains and into the Great Lakes. The northern Great Lakes will have some
snow as well. Scattered snow showers will fall over the Rockies, with rain over extreme northwestern
Washington. Most of the West will experience dry and cool conditions.

I HAVE BEEN cook-
ing since I was old
enough to stand on a
chair to reach the
stove. I remember
sneaking into the
kitchen to add season-
ings and final touches
to my mothers home-cooked meals.
While cooking was mostly a hobby for
me early on, as I grew older I learned
to appreciate food and the unlimited
combination of flavors and creativity it
has to offer. Thats one of the reasons I
chose to introduce you to my original
recipe for Char-Grilled Lamb Chops
with Apple Curry Reduction.
This dish offers a special blend of
flavors from sweetness in the apples to
heat from the various spices. My goal
was to create a dish with layers of fla-
vor so each layer could be experienced
independently, while contributing to
an overall palate-pleasing dish.
It may look like a long list of in-
gredients, but it is really a simple reci-
pe that can be used for chicken, beef,
fish or seafood as well as lamb.
If you would rather enjoy my cre-
ation without the work, Vanderlyns
will offer Char-Grilled Lamb Chops
with Apple Curry Reduction today and
tomorrow for dinner. For reservations,
call Vanderlyns at 283-6260. Our web-
site is www.vanderlyns.com.

ute between each ingredient.
7. Add dried cranberries, simmer

needed.
8. Adjust seasoning and consistency

DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER
Culinary Intern Tom Skudalski pre-
pared this Lamb and Apple Curry Dish
at Vanderlyns Restaurant in King-
ston.
In many ways, Im a totally different
persontoday thanI was sevenyears ago.
Back then, I was about 30 pounds
overweight, carting around an un-
healthy 20 percent body fat. I mean, I
love food. Im surrounded by food. And
it was awfully hard to resist enjoying all
the things I love. Especially at the holi-
days.
But then I realized I could have a
healthier attitude about food and a
healthier body. I could have the foods I
love and maintain a healthy weight.
Much of my success came down to
learning to tweak the recipes I love into
versions that taste just as good but with
fewer calories and less fat.
My biggest challenge since making
these changes has been surviving
Christmas. After all, its a holiday jam-
packed with great-tasting stuff, from
cookies to candies to mashed potatoes
to ham. But I really wanted to avoid
starting the newyear with a round little
belly that shakes when I laugh like a
bowlful of jelly.
For me, Christmas dinner means
ham. I just have to have one. But sadly,
hamis loaded with fat, calories, salt and
nitrates.
So with this holiday recipe, I decided
not to use ham, but to cook andseasona
healthier pork loin in way that reminds
me of ham.
Hamcomes fromthe hindleg of a pig,
from the shank to the hip. Pork loin
comes fromthe topbackof the pig, mak-
ing it one of the leanest cuts of pork
available and comparable to chicken
breast. Pork loin also has other advan-
tages its relatively inexpensive, easy

with this holiday reci-
pe, I decided not to use
ham, but to cook and
season a healthier pork
loin in way that re-
minds me of ham.
I
t might seem that getting eight nights
worth of presents is the best thing about
Hanukkah, but it isnt. The doughnuts are.
Here in the United States, as well as in
Europe, crispy, fried potato latkes are the
best-known food for celebrating the legendary
miracle of one days worth of oil that burned in
the temple for eight days. But, puffy doughnuts
called sufganiyot (which means sponge, de-
scribingthetexture) canrival potatopancakes in
popularity, especially in Israel.
Manyfoodhistorians saythat inthepast, pota-
toes were more abundant in Northern and East-
ern Europe, while in the Middle East and Africa,
wheat and other grains were more widely avail-
able. Not surprising, whenit came tocelebrating
Hanukkah by cooking foods in oil, people fried
what was easiest to get.
However, givenAmericans loveof doughnuts,
sufganiyot are growing in popularity stateside.
Tehiya Benezra, who along with her husband,
Michael, openedthe NorthShore Kosher Bakery
in Chicago after emigrating fromIsrael, says the
numbers speak for themselves. For the week
leading up to, and during the week of Hanukkah
(which begins Dec. 21), she says they sell 2,000
to 3,000 sufganiyot each day.
And thats on top of numerous special orders,
including one cultural organization that usually
buys about 10,000 of the golden pastries.
Benezra says the yeasted doughnuts are most
commonly filled with fruit jams or custard, but
in recent years caramel and fudge have become
popular as well.

These buttermilk
sufganiyot are
sweet, slightly
chewy and
reminiscent of
the famous
beignets of New
Orleans.

Asked if the recent trend
toward health consciousness has
put a dent in sufganiyot sales,
Benezra says the opposite
seems to be true. People dont
generally buy and eat the Ha-
nukkah doughnuts every day,
but she says more people in
general seem to be partaking of
the latke alternative.
Dennis Wasko, a kosher per-
sonal chef and instructor at Le
Cordon Bleu College of Culinary
Arts in Chicago, also has seen
demand increase. He says many
of his clients request the fried
treats during Hanukkah, and to
satisfy them he offers both
sweet and savory versions.
Sweet varieties usually are
made in the traditional filled-
doughnut fashion, but savory
versions are made with either a
less-sweet yeast dough or a light
pate a choux pastry stuffed with
fillings such as seasoned pump-
kin or sauteed Swiss chard with
raisins and tomatoes.
Sufganiyot are delicious when
served hot out of the fryer and
Wasko offers some tips for suc-
cess when making them:
Be patient and give the
yeast dough plenty of time to
rise. Wasko says the texture as
well as flavor will be better. He
even recommends letting the
dough rise slowly, wrapped in
plastic in the refrigerator. This
allows the yeast to develop a
fruity flavor.
Wasko prefers using cold-
pressed canola oil, which he
likes for its neutral to slightly
nutty flavor. But he says that if
you want to be really traditional,
use extra-virgin olive oil.
Make sure to use a frying
thermometer to monitor the oil
temperature. Most people, he
says, forget that when you add
pieces of dough to the hot oil
you need to adjust the temper-
ature to keep the oil from cool-
ing down. Cool oil will give you
greasy results.
Our buttermilk sufganiyot are
sweet, slightly chewy and remi-
niscent of the famous beignets
of New Orleans.
BUTTERMILK
SUFGANIYOT
Start to finish: 1 hour 50 minutes
(50 minutes active)
Servings: 24 large or 48 small
sufganiyot
41/4 cups bread flour, plus more
for dusting work surface
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup whole milk
1 1/4 cups buttermilk
4 teaspoons dry active yeast
3 tablespoons sugar
Vegetable oil, for frying
Powdered sugar, for dusting
In a medium bowl, whisk togeth-
er the flour, baking soda and salt.
Set aside.
In a small saucepan over medi-
um, heat the milk until steaming
but not boiling. Remove the pan
from the heat and add the butter-
milk. Pour the mixture into the
bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a
dough hook. Whisk in the yeast and
sugar. Let stand for five minutes.
Coat a large bowl with vegetable
oil, then set aside.
Add the flour mixture to the milk
mixture and mix on low speed until
the dry ingredients are moistened
and form a ball, about 3 minutes.
Increase speed to medium and
continue mixing for 2 minutes
more. The dough will be quite
sticky. Transfer the dough to the
prepared bowl, cover with plastic
wrap and set aside in a draft-free
spot.
Let the dough rise until doubled
in size, about 1 hour.
Fill a deep saute pan or large pot
with about 3 inches of oil. Heat
over medium to 375 F. Line a large
plate or sheet pan with paper
towels for draining.
Lightly flour a clean work sur-
face. Turn the dough out onto
surface. Dust the top of the dough
with flour, then press to flatten.
Fold the dough in half and tuck the
ends under to create a ball. Dust
with flour again and use a rolling
pin to roll the dough into roughly
an 11-by-17-inch rectangle about
1/4-inch thick.
Using a sharp knife, cut the
dough lengthwise into 4 equal
strips, then cut horizontally, at an
angle, to create 24 or 48 diamond-
shaped pieces.
Working in batches, carefully
drop pieces of dough into the hot
oil, being careful not to crowd the
pan. Fry, turning them often with a
slotted spoon or tongs, until puffed
and golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
Transfer to the prepared baking
sheet to drain while frying the
remaining sufganiyot. Fill or top as
desired and serve warm, dusted
with powdered sugar.

Sufganiyot are delicious when
served hot out of the fryer.
These sufganiyot are more
toothsome than traditional
yeast doughnuts and can be
filled or topped and served
with a knife and fork. To fill
them, either use a syringe-like
pastry filling tool to inject them
with jam, or simply slice open
one side with a paring knife
and use a spoon to fill them.
Some suggested fillings:
A few slices of fresh banana
and a generous spoonful of hot
fudge.
Jarred lemon or lime curd
sprinkled with toasted sliced
almonds.
Ricotta cheese mixed with
chopped walnuts, golden rai-
sins and a drizzle of honey.
Drained chunked or crushed
canned pineapple with a few
teaspoons of coconut creme
(not coconut milk).
Thick-cut Seville orange
marmalade and a smattering of
dark chocolate chips.
Canned poppy-seed filling
(look for it with other pie fill-
ings at your grocers) and some
finely grated lemon or orange
zest.
Cream cheese topped with
some chunky strawberry jam.
A chocolate-nut spread (such
as Nutella), topped with
chopped peanuts and marsh-
mallow spread.
Chunky peanut or almond
butter and a few squares of
dark chocolate.
Marzipan or almond paste
with a drizzle of chocolate
sauce.
Dulce de leche (a type of milk
caramel that can be found in
the Hispanic section of most
markets) and chopped toasted
pecans.
Mango chutney sprinkled
with chopped salted cashews.
A few spoons of your favorite
cheesecake.

The trick to producing a
moist and tasty pork-loin roast
is to make sure the meat is
prepared with plenty of mois-
ture and to then preserve as
much of that moisture as pos-
sible. I achieve this by brining
the meat, roasting it, then saute-
ing it.
As with ham, glazing a pork-
loin roast is important for flavor.
Technically, a glaze is a thick
sugar coating (think doughnut).
I make my own sweet, though
sugar-free, glaze with antiox-
idant-rich pomegranate juice
and calorie-free stevia, then
thicken it with arrowroot.
I brush the glaze on during
the final stages of cooking and
serve extra as a sauce on the
side (with some mustard and
horseradish added to the side
sauce). Sounds odds, I know,
but combined with the pork, it
is magnificent. For additional
sweetness, Ive studded the pork
with cloves, just as youd tradi-
tionally do with a ham.
Complementing this roast are
turnips, a vegetable I love. They
taste a bit like potatoes, but are
lower in starch and calories.
Consider: A cup of mashed
potatoes can add up to 237
calories; a cup of mashed tur-
nips, only 51 calories. In this
recipe, Ive sauteed the turnips
with the glaze, for something
truly delicious.
The other gift in this Christ-
mas dish is how much you save
in total calories. My ham
dinner has just 313 calories and
8 grams of fat per serving. Now
that is a sign of happy holidays!
CHRISTMAS PORK
When making the glaze, taste
and add packets of stevia sweet-
ener until you are satisfied with the
flavor. Stevia brands vary widely in
sweetness, so start with one packet
and taste as you go.
Start to finish: 1 1/2 hours (30
minutes active)
Servings: 8
3-pound fresh pork loin, trimmed
of all visible fat. (Buy a loin
with no water or tenderizing
solution added. )
8 whole cloves
1/2 gallon cold water
1/2 cup kosher salt, plus extra
6 sprigs fresh thyme, divided
1 tablespoon olive oil, divided
2 medium turnips, peeled and cut
into 1-inch wedges
Ground black pepper
1 cup pomegranate juice, divided
21/2 teaspoons arrowroot
Packets stevia sweetener powder,
to taste
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 teaspoon chopped fresh tarra-
gon
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds
1/2 cup coarse-ground or stone-
ground mustard
1/4 cup prepared horseradish
Heat the oven to 350 F.
Place the pork on a cutting
board. Using a sharp knife, make
shallow diagonal crisscross cuts
over the top and bottom of the
roast at 1-inch intervals. Use a
metal skewer or meat fork to poke
about 60 holes over the surface of
the roast, making sure to push the
skewer all the way to the center of
the roast.
Insert the cloves into the in-
tersections of the cuts on the top
of the pork. Set aside.
In a large oven-safe pot, com-
bine the water, 1/2 cup of salt and 4
sprigs of the thyme. Stir to dissolve
the salt. Gently submerge the pork
in the water and cover with the lid
or foil. Place in the oven and bake
for one hour, or until the pork
registers 145 F at the center.
Meanwhile, in a large saute pan
over medium-high, heat 1/2 tables-
poon of the oil. Add the turnips and
toss to coat evenly with oil. Season
with salt and pepper, then place in
the oven and roast for 40 to 50
minutes, or until the turnips are
tender and nicely browned, stirring
once or twice.
Pick the leaves off of the remain-
ing 2 sprigs of thyme and add to
the turnips. Toss to coat, then set
aside.
In a small bowl, stir together 1
tablespoon of the pomegranate
juice and the arrowroot until the
arrowroot is dissolved. Pour the
remaining pomegranate juice into
a small saucepan. Add 1 packet of
stevia and the cinnamon and heat
to simmering. Whisk in the arrow-
root mixture. Continue to cook and
stir for about 30 seconds, or until
the sauce is thickened. Taste and
add stevia as needed for desired
sweetness. Set aside.
Remove the ham from the cook-
ing liquid and pat dry with paper
towels. Heat a large saute pan over
medium-high heat and add the
remaining 1/2 tablespoon of olive
oil. Once the oil is smoking, add the
pork roast and cook for 2 to 3
minutes, or until browned on both
sides, turning once. Remove the
pork from the pan.
Add half the pomegranate glaze
to the pan and reduce the heat to
medium. Add the pork back to the
pan with the glaze and turn to coat
the meat completely. Remove the
pork from the pan and place on a
cutting board. Add the turnips, half
of the pomegranate seeds and the
tarragon to the glaze in the saute
pan. Cook and stir for 3 to 4 min-
utes, or until the turnips are heated
through and coated with the glaze.
Season to taste with salt and pep-
per.
Whisk the mustard and horse-
radish into the remaining half of
the pomegranate glaze and pour
into a small serving dish.
Remove the cloves from the
pork, then thinly slice the pork.
Place the pork slices on a large
platter. Add the turnips to the
platter around the pork and sprin-
kle with the remaining pomegra-
nate seeds. Serve with the mustard
and horseradish sauce.

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I am an
educated woman in
my late 20s. I have
been married for sev-
eral years to a won-
derful man, and we
were recently blessed
with our first child.
Since our wedding, my relationship
with my mother-in-law has been an
evolving one. Since the inception of
Desperate Housewives on TV, she
seems to believe shes a character on
the show. She trots around in reveal-
ing clothing looking like a street-
walker. She spends most of her time
gossiping with her newfound buddies
who are half her age, and who seem
to delight in dressing her up to make
her the talk of the town.
As a little girl, when I dreamed of
how my life would be as a married
woman, it was never like this. My
dreams never included a MIL who en-
joys seeing people look at her in dis-
belief as she struts across the room. I
dont want this to be an example for
my daughter. Confronting her doesnt
work she responds with guilt and
mockery. In other words, she always
wins. Im at a loss and have given up
trying to figure her out. Please help.
Desperate Housewife
Dear Desperate: As an educated
woman, its time for you to smarten
up and accept your mother-in-law for
the character she is warts and
all. You were wrong to expect her to
fulfill the fantasy role you created for
her. Shes not ready to do it and
she may never be.
The way she dresses will not influ-
ence your daughter; you will do that.
Your mother-in-laws attire is a reflec-
tion only on her, not you. Remember
that. If she is so youthful in spirit that
she has been accepted by a younger
group of women, stop judging her
and perhaps even learn from it. Shes
not over the hill yet. So stop trying
to push her there, and youll both be
happier.
Dear Abby: My husband, Joe, and I
have been married for 12 years. I have
a daughter from a previous marriage
and he has a son from a previous rela-
tionship. My daughter is married and
lives in another state.
My 22-year-old stepson, Junior,
lives with us. He has a history of drug
and alcohol abuse and has stolen
from us. I told Joe it has to stop
that I cant live like a prisoner in my
own home. Joe will not kick Junior
out of the house. Joe said HE would
leave, but that he wont put Junior
out on the street like a dog.
Our marriage was solid until Ju-
niors problems started a year ago.
Id never ask my husband to make
a choice. Junior is his son. I, on the
other hand, feel like a stranger in my
own home. We barely speak now and
have been sleeping in separate rooms.
I am at a loss. Abby, have you any
advice?
Stranger in My Own Home
Dear Stranger: Yes. You and your
husband should consult a therapist
who specializes in treating addic-
tions. Your husband loves his son, but
he is enabling him to continue using
by turning a blind eye to his steal-
ing and not enforcing consequences.
Sometimes love has to be tough.
Because your marriage has deterio-
rated to the point that you no longer
speak or share a bedroom, recognize
that you must look out for your own
welfare because your husband seems
unwilling or unable to.

ARIES (March 21-April 19).
Much will depend on what
kind of friend you are. Try
to think ahead about what a
friend might need from you.
Also consider the expectations
youve already set up and
how youll deliver on them,
or not.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You
want to have a good time and
be a big contributor to the social
swirl, but you have so much on
your mind that social goings-on
might not seem like a huge
priority.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Buried
pain has a way of staying buried
until someone clever acts as a
kind of metal detector to remind
you where the heavy elements
are hidden. A Scorpio or Cancer
person could serve this purpose
for you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22).
You accept that you have
created your experience, and
now you wonder whether its
quite the way you meant it to
be. Something definitive will
happen to let you know
whether its working for you
or not.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Where
you spend your time will be
crucial to the way relationships
develop or dont. Go where
youre sure to be in the mix with
all the players who are in your
game.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Your
word is good. Youll knock your-
self out to make sure you do
what you say youll do. Its part
of why youre confident: You
trust yourself to deliver, and oth-
ers trust you, too.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). So many
people dont think about the
details. Because you are con-
cerned about the initial impres-
sion you make on others, youll
come across even better than
you intended.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21).
Sometimes you forget to use
your position to share yourself
fully with others. Today youll
take the responsibility to heart.
Youll be warm when others are
distant.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Every adventure involves an ele-
ment of danger. If there is no
danger, it might be an exciting
experience, but its not really an
adventure.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Youll be involved in a group
effort and will be very aware of
the fact that your friends are
also your teammates. Try to
develop a strategy that will allow
everyone to win together.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). In
order to be a superstar, you have
to get involved in every aspect
of it. Youll dive for deeper
knowledge and also for adjacent
information.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Some
of your greatest triumphs will
happen because of the particular
way you pick yourself up after
a fall. Knowing this, youre not
afraid to slip up, and youll radi-
ate confidence.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Dec. 14).
Youll build your network of
friends and customers. Your
relationship with yourself is the
most important. Pisces and Virgo
people adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 20, 14, 2, 4 and 25.

The Meadows Nursing and Rehabilitation Center, Dallas, and the Alzheimers Association recently
presented the annual Alzheimers Interfaith Candlelight Vigil at the center. Scout Troop 155 opened the
program by performing the flag ceremony and leading clergy, family, staff and friends in the Pledge of
Allegiance. The nursing center hosts an Alzheimers Support Group 10:30 a.m. on the first Thursday of
each month in the Meadows board room. This support group benefits caregivers by providing the oppor-
tunity to address their concerns and learn about the newest developments in the treatment of this dis-
ease. Boy Scout members at the vigil, from left, first row, are Paul Hurn, Kyle Gurzynzki and Joseph Fioti.
Second row: Tony Fioti, leader; Steven Strumski; Marty Wise, leader; Christian Wargo; Shawn Spencer;
Donald Michalisin; and Nick Michalisin, leader.

located on the Lehigh River, in Luzerne
County, Pennsylvania. The sole purpose of
a preliminary permit, if issued, is to grant
the permit holder priority to file a license
application during the permit term. A pre-
liminary permit does not authorize the per-
mit holder to perform any land-disturbing
activities or otherwise enter upon lands or
waters owned by others without the own-
ers express permission.
The proposed Francis E. Walter
Hydroelectric Project would consist of the
following: (1) a 600-foot-long, 16-foot-
diameter steel penstock attached to the
existing outlet; (2) a concrete powerhouse
50 feet long by 75 feet wide; (3) two 4.5-
megawatt (MW) generators for a total
installed capacity of 9.0 MW; (4) a tailrace
channel to direct flow back to the Lehigh
River; (5) a proposed 0.5-mile-long, 12.4-
kilovolt transmission line interconnecting
with an existing Pennsylvania Power and
Light Corporation distribution line; and (6)
appurtenant facilities. The estimated
annual generation of the project would be
26.0 gigawatt-hours.
