5
THINGS
YOU NEED
TO KNOW
THIS WEEK
>> IDOL HANDS: Fans of music, overblown production
values and gobs and gobs of hype can rejoice. No, another
Kardashian isnt getting married. Its American Idol time
again. The popular talent show begins another incarnation
with its audition phase. The judges will be in Savannah, Ga.,
and Pittsburgh to begin the search for the next Kelly Clarkson,
Carrie Underwood or Taylor Hicks. OK, maybe not him. Idols
11th season begins Wednesday and Thursday at 8 p.m. on FOX.
>> GREEN WITH ENVY: After Kermit the Frog and
money, Shrek may be everyones next favorite green thing.
Their least favorite green thing is probably a month-old
sandwich. But, if you like the cartoon ogre from his movies,
then youll love him in the musical based on his life fiction-
al though it be. Shrek: The Musical will be performing this
weekend at the Scranton Cultural Center. Theres a show
Friday at 8 p.m. and a pair of shows each on
Saturday and Sunday.
>> THEYRE BACK: After a few weeks
on the road, including a two-day stint in the
Newfoundland Time Zone, the Penguins
will be back in their old Wilkes-Barre Town-
ship digs. Theyll be crashing the boards
against the Manchester Monarchs on Friday,
and doing something vaguely hockey-ish on
Saturday when they play the Syracuse
Crunch. Both games start at 7:05 p.m.
>> MEOW? If you are a cat owner,
did you ever wonder if your cat
had a question for you? Probably
not. The whole Cats dont speak human thing gets in the
way. But if your cat could ask you a question, this Saturday
is the day to do it. Why? Because its National Answer Your
Cats Questions Day, of course. Hopefully your cat wont ask
a really hard question, like What is Plancks Constant? But
rather something on the lines of, Where are the Little
Friskies?
>> TIMTIME IS OVER: Football fans, what are we
going to do? How, oh how, will we ever be able to
watch football without hearing the name
TimTebow every 3.2 seconds? Somehow,
we will try to muddle through next Sunday.
Well have to settle for some conference
championship football and count
down the days until ol No. 15 puts
on the spikes again. To help us get
by until then, Baltimore has gracious-
ly offered to play New England at 3 p.m.
on CBS, and the N.Y. Giants will soothe our
loss with a game against San Francisco at
6:30 p.m. on FOX.

WILKES-BARRE Connect
the dots and the picture looks
straightforward.
In recent years, U.S. Rep Tim
Holden has frequently voted to
curb environmental regulations.
Holdens old family business,
John J. Holden Insurance Co. in
St. Clair, is part of Rich Family
Companies, a conglomerate deal-
ing in coal, oil
and co-genera-
tion, all likely
benefiting from
those votes.
And Holdens
campaigns
have benefited
through dona-
tions from
those companies.
But Holden, poised to become
the representative for Wilkes-
Barre and area municipalities
thanks to legislative redistrict-
ing, says the picture isnt that
simple.
For starters, Holden noted, the
family business has been largely
out of the family for about two
decades.
It was sold to another insur-
ance broker, along with the
name, andeventuallyendedupin
the Rich Family conglomerate,
which includes among others
Reading Anthracite, Keller Oil,
Anthracite Power and Light, Le-
high Fuels, Gilberton Coal and
Waste Management & Proces-
sors Inc., a company that spe-
cializes in supplying fuel to the
co-generation industry, accord-
ing to its website.
Holden said he did work at his
family insurance business until
hewas electedontheDemocratic
ticket to represent the 17th Dis-
trict in 1992.
He said his family has no finan-
cial stake inthe insurance compa-
ny, though his brother does still
work there.
Holden also said he has been
friends with the Rich family I
just attended Jacks funeral, he
noted, referring to the funeral of
John Jack Rich, the CEO of
ReadingAnthracitewhodiedlate
last month.
But heinsistedhis decisions on
environmental regulation bills
have never been related to his
connections to the Rich family or

Luzerne and Lackawanna
counties are not among the 10
most populous counties in Penn-
sylvania. But bothrankinthe top
six in terms of establishments
with liquor licenses.
And the region also ranks in
the top four nationally in terms
of percentage of people who ad-
mit to binge drinking.
Is the rate of binge drinking so
high because of access to and
availability of alcohol
or is the number of
places selling liquor
so plentiful because
the region has an ad-
diction to alcohol?
Its a chicken and
the egg sort of scena-
rio, said William Chase, a psy-
chology professor at Keystone
College in La Plume.
Growing up in Wilkes-Barre,
the professor said he recalls a
tight race between the number
of churches and the number of
bars. The regions coal-mining
heritage traditionally meant the
shift at the mines
would end and the
shift at the bar
would begin.
He said coal
mining might have
left the region, but
the affinity for alco-
hol never has.
And now its more economics
rather than environmental rea-
sons that the binge drinking
rates are so high.

The black-and-white silent film
The Artist came away with the
most prizes with three wins at
the Golden Globes, but the show
spread the love around among a
broad range of films and TV
shows.
Wins for The Artist included
best musical or comedy and best
actor in a musical or comedy for
Jean Dujardin, while the family
drama The Descendants
claimed two awards, as best dra-
maanddramaticactor for George
Clooney.
Other acting winners were Me-
ryl Streep, Michelle Williams,
Christopher Plummer, and Octa-
via Spencer, while Martin Scor-
sese earned the directing honor.
Streep won for dramatic ac-
tress as Margaret Thatcher in
The Iron Lady, her eight win at
the Globes.
Williams won for actress in a
musical or comedy as Marilyn
Monroe in My Week with Mari-
lyn, 52 years after Monroes win
for the same prize at the Globes.
Dujardinwonfor musical or com-
edy actor for the silent film The
Artist.
The supporting-acting Globes
went to Plummer as an elderly
widower who comes out as gay in
the father-sondrama Beginners
and Spencer as a brassy house-
keeper joining other black maids
to share stories about life with
their white employers in the
1960s Deep South tale The
Help.
With regard to domestics in
this country, now and then, I
think Dr. King said it best: All la-
bor that uplifts humanity has dig-
nity and importance. And I
thank you for recognizing that
with our film, Spencer said.
Scorsese won for the Paris ad-
venture Hugo. It was the third
directing Globe in the last 10
years for Scorsese, who previous-
ly won for Gangs of New York
andThe Departed andreceived
the shows Cecil B. DeMille

wood for Dujardin, a star back
home in France but little known
to U.S. audiences previously. His
French credits include The Art-
ist creator Michel Hazanavicius
spy spoofs OSS 117: Cairo, Nest
of Spies and OSS 117: Lost in
Rio.
The Artist, which led the

L I ST OF GOL DEN GLOBE WI NNERS
CONYNGHAM -- Competi-
tion and fun were the order of
the day for Cub Scouts from
Pack 207, Conyngham,
who vied for their spot in
the winners circle in Sat-
urdays Pinewood Derby
at the Christ United
Church of Christ.
Cubmaster Paul Os-
wald, also an Anthracite
District executive, said
the derby, which boasted
more than 60 participa-
nts this year, teaches
scouts not only how to use
hand tools and craft race cars
out of blocks of wood, but also
fosters good sportsmanship
and a sense of perseverance.
The annual race features
small, gravity-powered cars
made by the scouts and their
families. The event encourag-
es scouts to spend time with
their parents in constructing
the cars, which must conform
to width, length and weight
specifications.
Oswald said the aims of both
the race and the Boy Scout ex-
perience itself are char-
acter, achievement and
positive experience.
I myself raced in the
Derby as a youngster,
said Oswald, remem-
bering his scouting ex-
perience as a time to
develop character and
build friendships.
He said many things
about the derby have
remained the same, but this
year the racetrack was comput-
erized for the first time.
Oswalds son, Jack, 10, also
raced this year and smiled
broadly as he held his car.
Phil Guza, chairman of the
event, and his wife, Kelly, put
in many long hours in prepara-
tion. The two oversaw the con-
cession stand, donations and
the pre-inspections of vehi-
cles.
We really appreciate the ef-
forts of the leaders both during
the race and throughout the
year, said Kittrick Danzeisen,
noting his son, Kittrick Jr., 8,
was racing for a second year
and was looking forward to fu-
ture years of scouting and rac-
ing.
Danzeisen said scouting is a
great experience and a lot of
fun!
In addition to first through
fourth place prizes for racing
times, there is also a category
of coolest car, which encour-
ages creativity in addition to
performance.
My car looks like a wedge
with gold paint and stickers,
said smiling scout Logan Wet-
zel, 7, as he enthusiastically
enjoyed a hotdog and a soda.
Oswald lauds Christ United
Church of Christ, which has
chartered and hosted Pack 207
throughout its existence.
Oswald encourages poten-
tial scouts to access the Pack
website http://www.orgs-
ites.com/pa/cubscout-
pack207.
Winners of the event are:
first, Bobby Early; second,
Josh Wufsus; third, Jason Biev-
er; and fourth, Robert Ronaldi.

KINGSTON More than 16 months af-
ter the U.S. Postal Service announced it
was putting the Kingston branch on the
market and would move operations into a
smaller facility once a sale went through,
nothing has changed at the Kingston
branch.
But plenty has happened at postal ser-
vice facilities throughout the region.
The 158-year-old Ashley Post Office
closed its doors in March 2011. Four
months later, four other post offices in Lu-
zerne County were included on a list of
more than 3,600 nationwide targeted for
review and possible closure. And then in
September the USPS said 252 of the na-
tions 487 mail processing facilities -- in-
cluding the one on Davis Street in Scran-
ton -- will be reviewed for potential consol-
idation.
Raymond V. Daiutolo, a postal service
spokesman, said the postal service is try-
ing to address millions in dollars in short-
falls and all plans are on the table.
Regarding the Kingston location, he
said the Postal Service found a smaller re-
tail location in neighboring Edwardsville,
but no purchase was made because the
service wanted to sell the Kingston loca-
tion first. Thats been an unsuccessful en-
deavor.
KingstonMunicipal Administrator Paul
Keating said the borough has a keen in-
terest in what goes in there but added ru-
mors the municipal police force is an op-
tion for a tenant are untrue.
That buildings too big and too old, he
said.
Daiutolo said the search for a buyer will
continue.
Our plan is to continue to market the
property. Right now, I understand we will
continue operations there until we find a
buyer, Daiutolo said. The 73-year-old
building is 18,446 square feet and is locat-
ed at 435 Wyoming Ave., at the Pierce
Street intersection. The property is 1.03
acres and has 63 parking spaces.
Daiutolo said a decision made in De-
cember by the postal service, at the behest
of Congress, means that no post office or
mail processing facility will be closed or
consolidated before May 15, 2012.
This delay is designed to allow Con-
gress sufficient time to enact comprehen-
sive postal legislation. During the morato-
rium, wewill continuetofollowapplicable
guidelines and take all necessary steps re-
quired for a full reviewand study, he said.
He said the public input phase for the
fate of post offices in Cambra, Beech
Haven, Weston and Glen Rock is ongoing.
Kingston post office remains, but sale still sought
Ashley facility closed and four other
Luzerne County postal offices
targeted for review.

HANOVER TWP. The woman iden-
tified in a lawsuit as the person who al-
legedly slashed another woman in the
face inside a Nanticoke bar early New
Years Day said she is not the attacker.
Melanie Figueroa, 20, of Nanticoke,
said she was in the Prospect Street Caf
on Jan.1, but she would not discuss
what happened inside it that morning.
During a brief interview Sunday she
limited her comments to what hap-
pened in the days after the attack on
Jennifer Mieczkowski.
Mieczkowski named Figueroa as the
assailant in the suit filed Friday in Lu-
zerne County Court against the bar and
its owner Paul Halliday, alleging em-
ployees served alcoholic beverages to
the underage Figueroa and did not stop
the attack.
I did talk to police. I went on my
own, said Figueroa. Because I heard
people were saying I
did it.
She denied attacking
Mieczkowski, 30, of
Nanticoke.
Why would I go to
police the day after it
happened if I did it?
she asked during a 15-
minute meeting at a
donut shop in Hanover
Township.
No criminal charges
have been filed. Nanti-
coke police Detective
Capt. William Shultz
said he was not going
to get in the middle of what Figueroa
and Mieczkowski were saying.
Were just going to continue our in-
vestigation, and were going to arrest
the person responsible for the crime,
he said.
Figueroa said she does not know
Mieczkowski and has no idea why she
was singled out by her in the suit.
I feel bad for what happened to Jen. I
dont feel like anything like this should
happen to anybody, said Figueroa.
Mieczkowski identified Figueroa
from a photo lineup within 24 hours of
the attack, said her attorney, David Sel-
ingo.
Mieczkowski declined the opportuni-
ty to comment.
Selingo said he and his client stand
behind the allegations in the lawsuit
and look forward to litigating this mat-
ter to its successful conclusion.
Ms. Figueroa will have full opportu-
nity to present her story under oath and
under the penalty of perjury in the liti-
gation forum, Selingo added.
Figueroa indicated she plans to file a
suit as a result of being named by Miecz-
kowski. The publicity has been harmful.
and the mother of a 3-year-old child said
she wanted to clear her name.
She was confident she would be vindi-
cated by the video fromthe bars surveil-
lance system. State police are conduct-
ing a forensic analysis of the video.
When the video comes back from
Harrisburg it will prove that Im inno-
cent, said Figueroa.

allegations
Author Harriet Clyde Kipps recent
book, Triumph Over Pain, has re-
newed interest in a water solution
that some contend
cures common ail-
ments.
Kipps, of New-
port Township,
first heard about
the possible reme-
dy from Northeast-
ern Pennsylvania
businessman Bob
Butts, who has de-
voted his life and
more than
$500,000 in re-
cent years to promote his belief that
ingesting sea salt and large amounts
of water can ease or cure many afflic-
tions.
Backers have dubbed it the Water
Cure.
The cure involves drinking
enough water daily to equal half your
body weight in ounces and using 1/4
teaspoon of sea salt for each quart.
Butts, of Elmhurst, learned of the
Water Cure in a
book, written by
the late Dr. Ferey-
doon Batmanghe-
lidj, called Your
Bodys Many
Cries for Water.
Batmanghelidj,
a native of Iran
and the founder of
the theory, con-
tended that dehy-
dration is the root
of many illnesses
such as cancer, type 2 diabetes, heart
disease, depression, obesity, addic-
tion and others.

Iran warns Arabs on oil
I
ran warned Gulf Arab oil producers
against boosting production to offset
any potential drop in Tehrans crude
exports in the event of an embargo
affecting its oil sales, the latest salvo in
the dispute between the West and the
Islamic Republic over its nuclear pro-
gram.
The comments by Irans OPEC gov-
ernor, published Sunday, came as Saudi
Arabias oil minister was quoted the
same day denying that his countrys
earlier pledges to boost output as need-
ed to meet global demand was linked
to a potential siphoning of Iranian
crude from the market because of sanc-
tions.
World oil markets have been jolted
over concerns that Iran may choke off
the vital Strait of Hormuz in retaliation
for sanctions hampering its ability to
sell its oil.
ISLAMABAD
Taliban leader said dead
Intercepted militant radio communi-
cations indicate the leader of the Pakis-
tani Taliban may have been killed in a
recent U.S. drone strike, Pakistani
intelligence officials said Sunday. A
Taliban official denied that.
The report coincided with sectarian
violence a bomb blast in eastern
Pakistan that killed 14 people in a Shi-
ite religious procession.
The claim that the Pakistani Taliban
chief was killed came from officials
who said they intercepted a number of
Taliban radio conversations. In about a
half a dozen intercepts, the militants
discussed whether their chief, Haki-
mullah Mehsud, was killed on Jan. 12
in the North Waziristan tribal area.
MOSCOW
Russian probe crashes
A Russian space probe designed to
boost the nations pride on a bold mis-
sion to a moon of Mars came down in
flames Sunday, showering fragments
into the south Pacific west of Chiles
coast, officials said.
Pieces from the Phobos-Ground,
which had become stuck in Earths
orbit, landed in water 775 miles west of
Wellington Island in Chiles south, the
Russian military Air and Space Defense
Forces said in a statement carried by
the countrys news agencies.
The $170 million craft was one of the
heaviest and most toxic pieces of space
junk ever to crash to Earth, but space
officials and experts said the risks
posed by its crash were minimal be-
cause the toxic rocket fuel on board
and most of the crafts structure would
burn up in the atmosphere high above
the ground anyway.
BUCHAREST, ROMANIA
Crisis meeting is called
Romanias government called an
emergency meeting late Sunday to
discuss violent protests that show no
sign of abating after demonstrators
angry about austerity measures hurled
stones and firebombs at police. At least
13 people were injured.
More than 1,000 protesters clashed
with police, who used tear gas and
flares to repel demonstrators who
blocked a main road in Bucharest. One
man was briefly set ablaze during the
chaos. Interior Minister Traian Igas
called an emergency meeting to deal
with the crisis.
The protests, in their fourth day, are
the most serious since President Traian
Basescu came to power in 2004. They
are the result of frustration against
public wage cuts, slashed benefits,
higher taxes, cronyism in state in-
stitutions and widespread corruption.
Protesters yelled The Mafioso gov-
ernment stole everything we had! and
Get out you miserable dog!

bodies of two elderly men still
in their life jackets, authorities
said, raising to five the death
toll after the luxury cruise liner
ranagroundandtippedover off

Divers scouring the bowels
of the ship in the murky, cold
sea discoveredthebodies at the
emergency gathering point
near the restaurant where pas-
sengers were dining when the
ship carrying more than 4,200
people hit a reef or rock near
the island of Giglio, Coast

said.

on their honeymoon were res-
cued late Saturday in the un-

their screams.
We are still searching for

hope that there might have
been an air pocket to allowthe
survival of others, Nicastrotold

Authorities are holding the
Italiancaptainfor investigation
of suspected manslaughter and
abandoning his ship among
other possible charges. Accord-
ing to the Italian navigation
code, a captainwhoabandons a

years in prison. A coast guard
official said Sunday officers ex-
horted Francesco Schettino to
return to his ship as panicked
passengers desperately fled the
cruise liner.
The chaotic evacuation has
added to the difficulty in track-
ing down survivors with six
of those unaccounted for crew
members and the others pas-

said.

WASHINGTON On the National
Mall in Washington, Martin Luther King
Jr. is a towering, heroic figure carved in
stone. On the Broadway stage, hes a liv-
ing, breathing man who chain smokes,
sips liquor andoccasionally curses.
As Americans honor Kings memory44
yearsafter hewasassassinated, theimage
of the slaincivil rights leader is evolving.
ThenewKingmemorial, whichopened
in August in the nations capital, cele-
brates the ideals King espoused. Quota-
tions fromhis speeches and writings con-
jure memories of his message, and a 30-
foot-tall sculpture depicts King emerging
as a stone of hope from a mountain of
despair, a design inspired by his famous
I Have a Dream speech.
Some gaze upon this figure in silence.
Some are movedto tears.
Just all that this man did so that we
could do anything and be anything, said
Brandolyn Brown, 26, of Cheraw, S.C.,
who visited the memorial Saturday with
her aunt andcousin.
I know it took a lot more than him to
get to where we are, but he was a big part
of the movement.

COLUMBIA, S.C. Asplin-
tered conservative vote in
South Carolina could pave the
way for Mitt Romney to win
this weeks pivotal primary,
some rivals said Sunday, ac-
knowledging an outcome that
prominent state lawmakers
suggested could end the nomi-
nation fight.
I think the only way that a
Massachusetts moderate can
get through South Carolina is if
thevoteissplit,saidNewt Gin-

loneconservativewitharealis-
tic chance of beating Romney
in the first-in-
the South con-
test.
Meanwhile,
campaign offi-
cials told the
AP on Sunday
that Jon Huntsman will with-
drawtodayfromtheracefor the
nomination.
Huntsmanwill endorseRom-
ney at an event in South Caroli-
na, the officials said. Huntsman
believes Romney is the best
candidate to beat President Ba-
rack Obama in November, they
said.
The campaignofficials spoke
on condition of anonymity be-
cause Huntsman plans to make
the official announcement to-
day.
The former Utah governor
placed third in last weeks New
Hampshire primary despite de-
voting most of his campaign re-
sources to the state. He had al-
ready acknowledged that ex-
pectationsfor himinSouthCar-
olinas primary this week will
be very low.
Polls show Romney, the for-
mer Massachusetts governors
who struggled to a fourth-place
finish in South Carolina during
his 2008WhiteHouserun, with
a lead heading into Saturdays
vote. The state has a large pop-
ulation of evangelicals and oth-
er conservative Christians, and
concerns arose four years ago
about his Mormon faith.
But Gingrich, RickSantorum

the Water Cure, by promoting
the theory since Batmanghe-
lidjs death in 2004 at age 73.
The most
critical ele-
ments to a
powerful im-
mune system
are oxygen,
water and
salt, Butts
said.
Some be-
lieve this cure
works. Oth-
ers, however,
believe it is a
hoax without
scientific
backing.
Docs not
convinced
The estab-
lished medi-
cal communi-
ty has not em-
braced Bat-
manghelidjs theory, and most
physicians do not offer it as
treatment for patients.
Dr. Stephanie Cabello from
Geisinger Wyoming Valley Med-
ical Center, Plains Township,
said that although water is es-
sential to the body, she believes
the Water Cure can only work
for certain ailments.
More research needs to be
done before the medical com-
munity can establish this as a
cure to any ailment, Cabello
said.
Kipps Triumph Over Pain is
a tribute to the work of Bat-
manghelidj, who dedicated the
last 20 years of his life promot-
ing public awareness of the
healing powers of water.
The book provides testimo-
nials from people who swear by
the Water Cure and states that
Chronic Dehydration (UCD)
contributes to and even pro-
duces pain and many degenera-
tive diseases that can be pre-
vented and treated by increas-
ing daily water and salt intake.
Water is good because it
makes the kidneys work, but I
dont believe that it can cure ill-
nesses like diabetes, Cabello
said.
Water Cure proponents assert
it is a cure for diabetes, a condi-
tion in which the pancreas no
longer produces enough insulin,
so glucose in the blood cannot
be absorbed into the cells of the
body.
I dont see how water alone
can take the place of insulin in
the body, Cabello said.
But Kipps is a believer of the
cure after trying the regimen on
her dog, which had developed a
tumor and was declared termi-
nal by a veterinarian.
Gave dog new life
The Triumph Over Pain au-
thor said that after she started
her pet on the Water Cure, the
pets tumor disappeared and the
dog was healthy again within a
month of starting the regimen.
Kipps learned about the Wa-
ter Cure from Butts.
The transformation she saw
in her pet was enough to con-
vince the self-published author,
and now she too has embraced
the work of the late Batmanghe-
lidj.
Since following the Water
Cure regimen, Kipps said, she
feels she has more energy and
fewer aches and pains.
If youre losing someone you
love or they are very ill, why not
try a free solution? You have
nothing to lose, she said.
Kipps first met Butts, owner
of Cee-Kay Auto Parts, a region-
al string of auto parts stores,
while reopening a playground in
her hometown village of Glen
Lyon.
Kipps has written more than
30 books on volunteerism and
has since used the proceeds
from the sales to fund local pro-
jects, such as the playground re-
habilitation.
Butts purchased many of her
books to help support her vi-
sion.
Shortly after meeting her,
Butts contacted Kipps to help
spread the word about the cause
he was passionate about.
Butts has spent more than half
a million dollars during his life-
time advertising what he be-
lieves is a free cure for nearly ev-
ery illness.
At his auto parts stores, he
provides free information and
videotapes.
He also provides additional
information on the website
www.watercure2.com.
The Water Cure claims that
Chronic Dehydration (UCD)
contributes to and even pro-
duces pain and many degener-
ative diseases that can be pre-
vented and treated by increas-
ing daily water and salt intake.
Possible treatment for many
common ailments is claimed
including: arthritis, depression,
asthma, heart disease, suicidal
tendencies, cancer, headaches,
cramps, diabetes, ulcers, addic-
tion, back pain, MS, obesity,
amputation, edema, heart burn,
premature aging, vision prob-
lems, colitis pain, angina pain,
high blood pressure, heartburn,
high cholesterol, arthritic pain,
fibromyalgia, kidney problems,
muscular dystrophy, gout, lu-
pus
TREATMENT CL AI MS
Dr. Fereydoon Batmanghelidjs
recommendations:
Drink half your body weight in
ounces of water daily.
Add tsp of sea salt and let
dissolve on tongue.
Sea salt is suggested due to
high mineral content.
Drink water within 5-6 minutes.
Retain water for 2-3 hours.
Never drink more than 33.8
ounces (one liter) in one sitting.
Avoid all caffeine, alcohol and
soda.
Children 2 and up need 75 per-
cent of their body weight in ounc-
es of water per day.
Program does not apply to
newborns up to 2 years of age

Seven years ago I literally got
the shock of my life. The shock
was from a malfunctioning ma-
chine that jolted me with 480
volts of electricity at 60 amps of
current. Eighteen months later I
was diagnosed with Reflex Sympa-
thetic Dystrophy and Pure Auton-
omic Dysfunction. I was put on a
regimen of medications number-
ing 14 pills a day and it wasnt
before long that the diseases took
over and I was confined to a
wheelchair. One of my friends,
Denise Debiasi, from Cee-Kay Auto
Store in Pittston saw me going by
in my wheelchair and told me of
Bob Butts, The Water Cure and
how it helped others with R.S.D.
Shortly after I started the regimen
and was amazed how quickly
feeling returned to my legs. I told
my doctors about the water cure
and was asked to leave their offic-
es and never return if I continued
to use a fake treatment. I stopped
physical therapy and saw more
improvements in my body using
The Water Cure than I saw with
conventional medicine. Something
that is virtually free got me up and
walking again.

the first group of banners up by
the beginning of February.
Gus Genetti of the Best West-
ern Genetti Hotel &Conference
Center has already ordered five
banners for his block on East
Market Street, Majikes said. He
said hes looking forward to get-
ting the banners up as soon as
possible.
Majikes said interested par-

the city is not already using a
picture that the business would
like to submit. She said that
once the photo is approved, it
should be e-mailed to Rick

There are five rooms total in
the one-level home, which in-
cludes a full bath, master bed-
room, living room and kitchen.
All utilities are accessible from
the first floor.
Single, two-story dwellings
are also available. These in-
clude three-bedrooms, living
room, dining room, kitchen,
laundry room, two full baths,
walk-in closet, basement with a
concrete floor and a one-car ga-
rage.
A twin home also has three
bedrooms, living room/dining
room combination, eat-in kitch-
en, concrete floor basement,
walk-in closet with an option to
make a second-floor bathroom,
1 1/2 baths and a one-car ga-
rage.
Rental homes include all ma-
jor appliances, as well as land-
scaping and snow maintenance.
Every single property is ener-
gy efficient, having been looked
at by Energy Star representa-
tives to ensure the most effi-
cient appliances and features
are present.
The Housing Development
Corporation is looking to the fu-
ture to help save even more on
energy costs.
Its to the point that the roofs
are angled and set up for solar
panels, Rupert said. Solar
panels are not yet cost effective,
so they arent part of the proper-
ties at this time, but there are
plans for them in the future in
the event that they do become
cost effective.
The Courtright Neighbor-
hood strives to be as affordable
as possible. The 1,603-gross-
square-foot homes are income
eligible and for sale at $120,000.
Down payment assistance and
grants are available through the
Growing Homeowners Initia-
tive. The neighborhood is also
in a Keystone Opportunity
Zone, so tax breaks are obtain-
able for residents.
Anyone who missed the open
house is welcome to call (570)

WHITE HAVEN Two men
are facing drunken-driving charg-
es after they allegedly killed a
deer on private property.
Police and the Pennsylvania
Game Commission charged Sean
P. White, 22, of Spruce Street,
Mountain Top, and John Daniel
Titus Jr., 22, of Peatmoss Road,
White Haven, with driving under
the influence, unlawful killing of
game, unlawful killing game
from vehicle, unlawful use of
lights while hunting, unlawful
use of lights to search for game,
possessing loaded firearms in a
vehicle, and killing game near a
private residence. Titus was fur-
ther charged with driving a vehi-
cle with an open bottle of liquor.
The charges were filed Thurs-
day with District Judge Gerald
Feissner in Freeland and mailed
to White and Titus.
According to the criminal com-
plaints:
A resident of Barrys Road re-
ported at 12:50 a.m. on Dec. 20
that he heard a gunshot and be-
lieved people were hunting deer
on his farm.
Police stopped a 1996 Jeep
Cherokee driven by Titus on Bar-
rys Road. Titus was arrested and
driven to the White Haven Police
Department. White was permit-
ted to leave in Titus Jeep.
When police transported Titus
to a hospital for a blood test an
hour later, they passed Barrys
Road noticing brake lights in the
area where Titus was stopped.
Police stopped the vehicle that
was operated by White.
White was arrested on evi-
dence of drunken driving, the
criminal complaint says.
After Titus and White submit-
ted to blood tests at the hospital,
they were given a ride to Whites
residence in Mountain Top.
PolicereturnedtoBarrys Road
and found several guns on the
ground where White had been
stopped earlier.
Surveillance was set up in the
area the next morning as police
observed White returning to Bar-
rys Road driving Titus Jeep.
White got out of the Jeep and
picked up the rifle, the complaint
says.
Authorities said Titus and
White admitted to killing a deer
for the purpose to eating it, and
using the Jeeps headlights and a
flashlight to locate deer in the
field.
A wildlife officer found a dead
deer in the field where the two
men were arrested.
Preliminary hearings are
scheduled on Feb. 15.

Everybody has to have a little bit
of Dr. King in him.
Ron Felton
The president of the Wilkes-Barre NAACP told
attendees at a recent Martin Luther King Jr. Day
observance that people should put the slain
civil-rights leaders words into practice in their own lives. King would
have turned 83 Sunday.
EVERY FOUR years, Iowa
and New Hampshire are the
first states to cast votes to
select the nominees for presi-
dent. But does that really
mean theyre bellwethers of
national political sentiment?
In the last five contested Republican battles,
voters in Iowa wrongly predicted the eventual
Republican nominee three times. A coin flip
would have done better. And in 2008, New
Hampshire Democrats went for Hillary Rod-
ham Clinton over Barack Obama.
So if you cant count on Iowa and New
Hampshire, where should you look to get an
accurate reading on the countrys political
future? One option might be the United As-
trology Conference, to be held in New Orleans
in late May. There, the group plans to divine
the likely winner of the November elections
from the position of the planets.
Or perhaps youd prefer looking to market
forces to predict the outcome? The University
of Iowa College of Business provides an elec-
tronic futures market that allows people to
place bets on real-world events, including
presidential elections. The 2012 market has
been trading since July 1, 2011, with un-
named Democratic and Republican nomi-
nees. As of now, the implied predictions are
about even, with prices of 50 cents for the
unnamed Democrat and 49.8 cents for the
unnamed Republican.
If you pick the winner, you get $1 on your
50-cent investment, but you get nothing if the
candidate you put your money on loses. On
the eve of the 2008 election, the prices were
90 cents for Obama and 10 cents for McCain.
This market has correctly predicted every
presidential election since 1980.
For those who do not want to wager real
money but would like to express a preference,
there is the 7-Eleven coffee-cup poll. In Octo-
ber, 7-Eleven stores will be selling coffee in
either blue (Democrat) or red (Republican)
colors. Consumers pick their color and im-
plied choice. This poll has been right since its
launch in 2000.
Timing is, of course, a crucial factor in the
track record of these election forecasts. Pre-
dicting the winner on the eve of an election is
a lot easier than making a prediction in Janu-
ary. Last-minute opinion polls (including
prediction markets) and voter exit polls have
great track records. But their success is no
more impressive than predicting the Super
Bowl victor with 1 minute left to play. Getting
that prediction right at the beginning of the
season is a lot harder.
Timing is one of the things that make Ray
Fairs predictions so impressive. The Yale
economist made his predictions for the 2012
presidential race way back in October 2010,
long before anyone knew who would be chal-
lenging Obama this year. In fact, professor
Fair says it does not matter who the chal-
lenger is. The only thing that matters in Fairs
model is the economy. Echoing Bill Clintons
mantra Its the economy, stupid Fair
offers a model of total economic determina-
tion. As he sees it, people will vote their pock-
etbooks. Period.
Think about that proposition for a minute.
Nothing else matters? Not who the Repub-
lican nominee is? Not the vice-presidential
nominee? Not money spent on the campaign?
Not the number of candidate appearances or
goofs? In Fairs model, its all about the econo-
my, plain and simple. And hes been right 90
percent of the time.
Fairs equation uses only two variables:
economic growth and inflation. On the theory
that voters will reward the incumbent who
delivers on improving the economy, the calcu-
lation adds points for growth (as measured by
changes in real gross domestic product) and
subtracts them for increases in the rate of
inflation.
Fairs model assumes voters have short
memories. The economic despair of the past
three years hardly matters. What counts, he
says, is how well the economy is doing in the
election year.
In October 2010, Fair was predicting anoth-
er decisive Obama victory in 2012. His pre-
diction depended on a forecast of a strong
2012 economy. Fair assumed GDP growth of
3.69 percent in the first nine months of the
year, including three good news quarters (in
which GDP grows by more than 3.2 percent).
But even modest growth could make the
election a lot closer than people now antici-
pate. So if you are handicapping the outcome,
you had better keep an eye on the economy,
not the candidates, the stars or the opinion
polls.

COMMENTARY
B R A D S C H I L L E R
N
O ONE SHOULD
doubt the potential
seriousness of Irans
increased military
defiance in the face of growing
international pressure over its
nuclear program.
We have seen the testing of
two missile systems, the
threat to block the passage of
shipping through the Strait of
Hormuz and the warning from
an Iranian general that U.S.
aircraft carriers should not re-
enter the Gulf.
The Iranian government is
in financial and political trou-
ble. The economy is collaps-
ing, and dissent, both within
the leadership and among or-
dinary Iranians, is growing.
Faced with this, the regime is
ratcheting up tension militari-
ly so that it can exploit the one
clear option it has left: nation-
alism. Whatever the populace
might think about its govern-
ment, there can be little doubt
that most Iranians would rally
aroundthe flagif their country
were attacked or seemed to be
in imminent danger of attack.
Any attempt to close the
Straits of Hormuz would be
provocative in the extreme.
However, it must be asked if
this is anything but a bluff.
If Iran genuinely wants sta-
bility and security in the re-
gion, it should press the reset
button, simply by permitting a
full inspection of its nuclear
program.
Unfortunately Teheran so
far refuses, either because its
nuclear plans are indeed any-
thing but civil, or possibly be-
cause such a move might ap-
pear as weakness, a caving-in
to the hated United States.
Thus, with every further
saber rattle from both Wash-
ington and Teheran, this most
obvious course seems ever
more unlikely.

HINAS RESILIENT
trade data is much-
needed good news for
the world economy,
which is threatened by the lin-
gering European debt troubles
and uncertainties arising from
the forthcoming U.S. presiden-
tial election.
U.S. policymakers who are
reportedly planning to create a
government task force to mon-
itor China over trade and cur-
rency issues, shouldtake a hard
look at the latest Chinese trade
figures.
That does not mean they
should misuse these statistics
to help score political points
with voters by blaming China
for the woes of the U.S. econo-
my. Instead, they should seri-
ously reflect on whether their
country can learn and benefit
from Chinas progress in reba-
lancing its growth model for
sustainable development.
The latest statistics show
that Chinas trade volume in-
creased 22.5 percent year-on-
year to hit a record $3.4 trillion
in 2011. This is clear evidence
that the worlds second-largest
economy has made its fair con-
tributiontoglobal tradegrowth
in a year when such growth is
badly needed in order to cush-
ion the world economy against
the turbulence stemming from
many developed economies.
Make no mistake, getting
tougher on China is simply not
the way to get serious about a
lasting U.S. recovery.

Sugar Notch ousted
a dedicated fire chief
T
his letter is written regarding the re-
cent election of officers for the Sugar
Notch Fire Department and the ousting
of Chief Bill Hagan after 40 years of tre-
mendous service to the borough.
This decision was uncalled for after the
hard work, dedication and effort Bill put
into the department.
Bill Hagan was qualified as chief. He
attended many training sessions and was
there 24 hours a day, seven days a week for
an emergency, whether it was a house fire,
car accident or a cellar that had to be
pumped out after the recent flooding. He
also worked on getting grants for fire-
fighting equipment.
The residents of the borough should
give Mr. Hagan all the respect and credit
he deserves for all the years he served so
diligently.
God bless you, Bill, and keep you in
good health.

Carpet-bagging lawyers
tread all over our shale
A
s a lifelong resident of the Back Moun-
tain, specifically Lehman Township, I
believe in property rights and the way
things should be.
Across the Marcellus Shale region, many
townships are considering zoning ordi-
nances to regulate natural-gas develop-
ment a clear violation of the states cur-
rent regulatory structure that governs
natural-resource development responsibly.
Worse, these ordinances apparently are
being influenced by out-of-state lawyers
funded by big-money interests whose
goals, they freely admit, are to prevent
Marcellus development.
Dont believe me that rights can be un-
constitutionally suspended? Just look at
our neighbors in the Delaware River Basin
who have had their rights suspended for
three and a half years while the rest of
Pennsylvania responsibly enjoys natural-
gas development.
To stop this zoning issue from becoming
serious, join me in calling state Sen. Lisa
Baker at (570) 675-3931.

nal counts in what state prose-
cutors allege was the sexual
abuse of 10 boys over a 15-year
period. He maintains his inno-
cence and is out on bail while
he awaits trial. Two school offi-
cials also awaiting trial on
charges of lying to a grand jury
and not properly reporting sus-
pected child abuse have also
deniedtheallegations. Paterno
was fired in the wake of the
scandal and former university
president GrahamSpanier was
also ousted.
The paper said the docu-
ments suggest that the gover-
nors staff was intent on the of-
fices reaction and monitoring
the response from university
officials and trustees. One ex-
changeoutlines efforts totight-
en reporting policies within
the commonwealths 14 state-
owned universities. Penn
State, while it receives state
aid, is not a state-owned
school.
FromPSU, we can see there
is much confusion and uncer-
tainty, wrote Dean Weber, di-
rector of the State System of
Higher Educations internal
risk office.
David Saxe, an education
professor at Penn State, wrote
tocriticize a lackof transparen-
cy on the campus.
I urge you to do anything to
change this culture . . . that has
become Penn State, he said.
Corbett, who as attorney
general initiated the investiga-
tion that led to the charges,
was accused of failing to clean
house in some letters, most of
which arrived before the ac-
tions on Paterno and Spanier.
Paternos firing prompted the
most input, withhundreds pro-
testing the coachs ouster
while others supported the de-
cision. All were told that to
contact PennState because the
governor does not have au-
thority over the universitys in-
ternal personnel decisions.
Feedback changed, however,
after the governor did a num-
ber of TV interviews and was
the subject of a positive New
York Times profile, the paper
said.
The paper said no e-mails or
other writings from Corbett
are included, andparts of other
documents were redacted. The
governors office cited state
law allowing it to withhold re-
cords relating to active investi-
gations or an agencys internal
deliberations.
The (Harrisburg) Patriot-
News, meanwhile, reported
that Paterno and his wife, Sue,
gave $100,000 to a Penn State
center inDecember inaddition
to their annual $100,000 gift to
support the library and a fel-
lows programat the university.
Thepaper, citinga sourceclose

to the Suzanne Pohland Pater-

ter was made just week after
Paterno was fired. The center

donations fromthe companies.
A quick check found nearly
$20,000 had been donated in
2008 and 2010 to Holdens cam-
paign by people with the Rich
name who run or are involved in
three companies under the Rich
Family umbrella.
Holden said his decisions on
environmental regulations are
about jobs, not campaign contri-
butions or business ties.
The coal industry, including
coal-fueled electricity plants and
efforts to develop cleaner-burn-
ing fuel from coal, generates
good jobs, Holden said.
Regulations have helped clean
up the environment, he added,
citing a creek near his childhood
home that once ran orange from
acid mine drainage and is now
clear.
But I think they are going too
far. There is an effort to put coal
plants out of business, costing
thousands of jobs, he said.
Holden has been criticized by
environmentalists for a string of
votes in 2011that would curb fed-
eral regulatory power. InanOcto-
ber blog, Natural Resources De-
fense Council staff member Pete
Altman listed four examples:
HR2250, which Altman said
weakens Clean Air Act safe-
guards slated to reduce mercury,
toxic metals, acidgases andother
hazardous air pollution from in-
cinerator and industrial oper-
ations.
TheTRAINact, whichwould
repeal or prevent Clean Air Act
standards for power plants.
An amendment that would
prevent EPA from using funds to
implement standards controll-
ing emissions from cement
plants.
HR 910, which bars the EPA
from setting regulations regard-
ing greenhouse gases, which
environmentalists contend con-
tribute to climate change.
Holden said his decisions on
these votes were driven by his
commitment to the average peo-
ple who live and work in the coal
region.
People such as Rich and heads
of other large companies that
might benefit fromsuchvotes al-
ready made it. But others who
work in coal and coal-related in-
dustries couldbe out a jobif regu-
lations force companies to close.
When it comes to cleaning up
the environment, Holden said,
Wevemadealot of progress. But
to put people out of business?

Marie C. Gray, a nationally
certified psychologist and ad-
junct professor of psychology at
Misericordia University in Dal-
las Township, said the economy
is likely playing a role in the rise
in binge drinking locally and na-
tionally.
High unemployment rates,
foreclosures and the stress at
home that those matters create
are factors. And she said this
past years flooding and still-
high unemployment rates will
likely only continue the trend.
Escapism motive
She said more alarming to her
is the trend of people in their
30s or older binge drinking. She
said binge drinkers usually drink
with the belief being drunk will
make their problems go away.
Of course, theyre still there
when they sober up, she noted.
Its escapism, Gray said.
And thats why, she believes, so
many people in older age brack-
ets are taking to it more recent-
ly.
Gary Knowles, administrative
director at Clearbrook Treat-
ment Centers, added that alco-
hol is a legal substance that can
be easily obtained by members
of an older generation.
Chase said people turn to
binge drinking as a form of self
medicating.
Its medication they dont
need a prescription for, and its a
lot cheaper than anything you
can get at a pharmacy, he add-
ed.
Historically high tobacco-use
rates in the area also play a role,
reasoned the dean of students at
Keystone College.
With regard to binge drink-
ing, tobacco use is extremely
high in NEPA, and there is a ve-
ry strong correlation between al-
cohol use and tobacco use, and
an even stronger correlation be-
tween binge drinking and ciga-
rette use among high school-
and college-age students, said
Robert J. Perkins, the vice presi-
dent of student affairs and dean
of students at Keystone.
Abusive behavior
Alice Dalla Palu, executive di-
rector of Coalition for a Smoke
Free Valley, which is contracted
by the state Department of
Health to provide tobacco-use
prevention and cessation pro-
grams for a 10-county area in-
cluding the Lehigh Valley, Poco-
nos and greater Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre regions, said
theres no doubt this area has a
historically high tobacco-use
rate.
According to the most recent
survey released by the state De-
partment of Health, 24 percent
of people in the tri-county re-
gion consisting of Luzerne,
Lackawanna and Wyoming
counties said they smoke.
Dalla Palu said Luzerne is of-
ten the county reporting the
highest overall percentage of
those in the region. And she
concurred with Perkins that
links between tobacco use and
drug and alcohol use are com-
mon.

Local colleges, awareof thehistoric con-
nection between students and alcohol,
have implemented measures to educate
students onthe dangers of abuse andtoas-
sist those with a problem.
PennStateWilkes-BarreDirector of Stu-
dent Affairs Kathie Flanagan-Herstek said
the message is sent before a student even
enters the classroomat anyof the universi-
tys satellite campuses.
All entering Penn State students are re-
quired to complete a two-part, online
module PSU SAFE. PSU SAFE is a confi-
dential, online alcohol-educationprogram
that uses science-based research to edu-
cate students about alcohol and its delete-
rious effects.
The program is designed to help them
make informed decisions about alcohol
and the drinking behavior that they may
encounter in social situations, Flanagan-
Herstek said.
At Kings College, the first-year experi-
ence seminar is called CORE 090. At
Wilkes University, its AlcoholEdu.
At the University of Scranton, in addi-
tion to AlcoholEdu, students also take
Royal T.A.P.S. (Teaching Alcohol Prepa-
redness for Students).
And at Marywood University and Keys-
tone College, an alcohol-awareness lec-
ture is required for all incoming freshmen.
Keystone also requires all athletes to at-
tend the lecture.
The course names might be different at
each school, but the message is the same:
Students must knowthe risks anddangers
of alcohol abuse.
While college officials are quick to point
out that binge drinking is not unique to
students, theyre alsohastentopoint out it
is a problem among that age group.
There are social expectations that alco-
hol will be associated with life as a college
student, said Wilkes University Dean of
Students Mark R. Allen. Alcohol is the le-
gal drug of choice for those 21 and older,
and its easy to access for those under 21.
In recent years, bars have sprung up in
downtown Wilkes-Barre, smack dab in be-
tween the Wilkes and Kings campuses.
But bars are not to blame for binge drink-
ing, Allen notes, though happy hour offers
of cheap beer and mixed drinks certainly
make that option more affordable for stu-
dents on tight budgets.
Allen said internal surveys have shown
that while bars are an avenue that gives
students more access to alcohol, its off-
campus parties at private residences
where most binge drinking occurs.
Dr. David Withers, medical director at
the Marworth substance abuse treatment
center in Waverly, said the bars knowthat
students of drinking age are key custom-
ers, but they also knowthat drinking-and-
driving laws and enforcement have been
on the rise.
The Administrative Office of Pennsylva-
nia Courts says the Luzerne County
Courts handled about 900 DUI cases in
2009and1,175cases in2010, anincreaseof
23 percent.
So establishments have located close to
customers to help eliminate the concern
of having to drive under the influence,
Withers theorized.
Withers said he cant say that he has
seen a rise in binge drinking in recent
years, but he has seen plenty of studies
showingthat people whobinge drinkat an
earlier age are more prone to substance
abuse and other issues later in life.
Schools aim to teach alcohol education
Area colleges offer programs to
inform students about dangers of
binge drinking.

GREEN BAY, Wis. For Eli Manning
and the NewYork Giants, Lambeau Field
has become a familiar launching pad. Af-
ter beating the Green Bay Packers at
home for the second time in four years,
theyonlyhopethistripendsthesameway
at the Super Bowl.
Manning threw three touchdown pas-
sesandtheGiantsshockedthePackers37-
20 in an NFCdivisional playoff game Sun-
day. Manning threw for 330 yards, send-
ing the Giants to San Francisco for the
NFC championship game next Sunday
night.
The Packers (15-2) might have beenthe
reigning Super Bowl
champs, but the Giants
(11-7) might be the hot-
test team in the NFL.
I think were a dan-
gerous team, Giants
coach Tom Coughlin
said. I likewhereweare
and how were playing.
The Giants stunned the Packers with a
touchdownoff alongheavefromManning
to Hakeem Nicks just before halftime,
then knocked themout with a late touch-
downoff a turnover. LambeauFieldfell si-
lent as theGiants swarmedthefieldincel-
ebration, with a handful of NewYork fans
chanting, Lets go, Giants!
The Giants have been on a roll ever
since beating the rival Jets on Dec. 24,
beating the Dallas Cowboys to get in the
playoffs and then blowing out Atlanta in
the wild card round last week.
The win came four years after the Gi-
ants beat aBrett Favre-ledPackers teamin
the NFCtitle game. It wasnt nearly as fri-
gidthis time around, andthe Packers vul-
nerable defense seemed to be waiting to
get sliced up.
This team knows how to win on the
road, defensive end Justin Tuck said. It
seems like right now its our time.
Manning found six different receivers
against a porous Packers defense. But
Manning did the most damage with his
throws toNicks, whocaught sevenpasses
for 165 yards and two touchdowns.
Nicks biggest play was a 66-yardtouch-
down catch in the first quarter. His score
at the end of the half came on a 37-yard
pass into the end zone with defenders all
around.
It was a big momentumplay for them,
but we were not deflated as a football
team, Packers coach Mike McCarthy
said.

ed in the end zone.
All I said was, Ive got to go up and get
it, Nicks said. Honestly, I (didnt) know

BALTIMORE The Ravens are like
Joe Flaccos Fu Machu mustache.
They arent exactly a thing a beauty,
but they get the job done.
In an AFCdivisional game that surely
wont leave a lasting imprint in the an-
nuals of the NFL, Baltimore scraped by
the Houston Texans, 20-13, in the same
manner as many of its victories through
17 years of existence.
The Ravens prevailed behind the
strength of their defense albeit an ag-
ingone andinspite of mediocre quar-
terback play.
I think it was a Ravens-type victory,
Ravens linebacker Terrell Suggs said. I
always say this, Theres a right way to
do things, theres a wrong way to do
things, and then theres a Ravens way to
do things. It wasnt re-
ally pretty, but, hey,
were not really a pretty
team.
If they want to beat
New England in next
Sundays AFC cham-
pionship game in Fox-
borough, Mass., the Ravens offense
may need plastic surgery. Scoring only
three points without the benefit of a
turnover and generating 227 yards of to-
tal offense wont likely get it done
against quarterback Tom Brady.
Hes a great quarterback, Suggs
said. When its all said and done, its go-
ing to be Johnny (Unitas), himand Pey-
ton (Manning), end of discussion.

ST. JOHNS, Newfoundland
Smiling had to hurt Joey Mormi-
na, but he couldnt help himself.
Big win. Great win, said the
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Pen-
guins defenceman after his
teams 4-3 overtime victory in
American Hockey League action
against the St. Johns IceCaps
Sunday evening.
As Mormina spoke, he held an
bag of ice against his right cheek
to keep the down the swelling
where a puck had climbed the
shaft of his stick and caught him
in the third period. But despite
the discomfort, the big blueliner
had no trouble grinning as he
spokeabout at least judgingby
thePenguins on-icecelebration--
what seemedalmost likeaplayoff
victory at Mile One Centre.
After Ben Street scored the de-
ciding goal at 1:33 of the extra
frame, the Penguins poured off
the bench to mob the young cen-
ter, who got to play hero two days
in a row. On Saturday, Street
whose parents are from St.
Johns and who had dozens of rel-
atives taking in both games
had scored a penalty-shot and set
up a shorthanded goal by Bryan
Lerg as the Penguins prevailed
6-4.
On Sunday, his game-winning
goal was not quite as nifty. It
came when a Mormina shot from
the blueline went off IceCaps
goalie Eddie Pasquales stick, hit
Streets leg and went into the net.
But the Penguins didnt care
about the aesthetics of Streets
goal, only about what it meant.
I was jumpingupanddownaf-
ter it went in, said Mormina.
Imfeeling a bit of pain now, but
I didnt then.
These were two hard-fought
games against a real good team.
These are four big points.
Lerg, with his second short-
handed tally in as many days,
Paul Thompson and Geoff Walk-
er had the regulation-time goals
for the Penguins, who improved
to 22-12-1-4 and moved into a sec-
ond-place tie with the idle Nor-
folk Admirals, six points behind
the East Division- and Eastern
Conference-leading Hershey
Bears.
Spencer Machacek, Ben Max-
well and Jason Jaffray scored for
St. Johns (22-10-5-1), which
holds second place in the confer-
ence after earning a single point.
The fact his team were able to
beat aqualityopponent inits own
building in back-to-back games
was a step forward for our
group, according Penguins
coach John Hynes.
This was an important test
against an excellent team, said
Hynes. Tobe able tofindways to
win was exciting for the guys.
At the top of the list of those
ways was the penalty kill. Inall,
it produced four shorthanded
goals on the weekend. On Sun-
day, it was especially critical dur-
ing a1:58 stretchinthe thirdperi-
od when the Penguins were cited
for four straight minors. But the
PK was more than OK, and the
IceCaps couldnt convert despite
the resulting extensive power-
play time, much of it five-on-
three.
Still, the Penguins werent able
to get through the third period
unscathed. They held a 3-1 lead
with just over seven minutes left
in regulation, but goals by Max-
well and Jaffray, the latter on a
power play, got the IceCaps into
overtime, where they experi-
enced the disappointment of the
Street goal.

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com MONDAY, JANUARY 16, 2012 PAGE 3B
S P O R T S
Walking in the halls of Wyom-
ing Area after its loss to Ber-
wick last Monday night, it
looked as if the Warriors faithful
take their girls basketball seri-
ously.
In fact, it looked as if they
took it a little too seriously.
A 33-30 loss to a very good
Berwick team should be no
reason to string up the head
coach. Yet there was Ryan Ken-
nedy, surrounded by a mob,
getting affixed to a wall in a
hallway outside of the Warriors
gym.
It turns out the mob was
nothing more than students
duct taping Kennedy as part of a
fundraiser.
This was all for the SADD
(Students Against Destructive
Decisions)/TATU (Teens
Against Tobacco Use), to raise
awareness, Kennedy said after
coming down off the wall.
These are things that are more
prevalent than people believe. It
was a fundraiser. Students paid
$1 a yard for the tape.
There was enough tape for
the students to have Kennedy
stand on a bench while being
coated in duct tape strips. Cov-
ered and attached to the wall,
the students removed the bench
from below Kennedy.
Then, the coach was doing
what the teachers always want
to keep the students from doing
-- just hanging around in the
halls. Though, for Kennedy, his
hanging around was literal.
In his first year leading the
Warriors, Kennedys team is
sporting a 4-9 record.
CHART TOPPER -- North-
wests Alivia Womelsdorf fin-
ished December as the areas
leading scorer, averaging 25.1
points per game in eight games.
To put that in perspective,
WVC teams posted 13 games
during that month of 25 points
or less. Thats the entire teams
output.
Womelsdorf entered the sea-
son with a career-best 25 points
in a game last season against
Coughlin. She topped that mark
four times in those eight De-
cember games, including a
36-point night at Benton on
Dec.28.
COMETS COMING TO-
GETHER -- Defending WVC
Division 1 champ Crestwood got
back on the winning track after
starting the league season with
losses to Wyoming Valley West
and Pittston Area.
Triumphs over Hazleton Area
and Coughlin put the Comets at
2-2 in the league entering the
final week of first half play.
We know we have a bulls-eye
on our backs every game out,
Comets coach Isiah Walker said.
Crestwood is still trying to
find itself after posting a 4-2
mark in non-league games, with
losses against Scranton Prep
and Nanticoke.
Ive been down this road
before, Walker said. Hopefully,
well have a few leaders step up.
Three, four, five perhaps.
The Comets are enjoying
impressive balance, though. In
league play, theyve had a differ-
ent leading scorer in each game
-- Sydney Myers (16 vs. Valley
West), Kayla Gegaris (17 vs.
Pittston Area), Rebecca Rutkow-
ski (17 vs. Hazleton Area) and
Amy Jesikiewicz (14 vs. Cough-
lin).
BIRD-DOGGING DEFENSE --
Berwick entered the season
returning just 5.8 points per
game of offense from last sea-
sons 17-6 squad. So coach Bill
Phillips has been lauding the
defensive efforts of his Bulldogs,
who are 2-2 in league play.
Berwick is allowing just 35.8
points per game this season, just
one more point than last years
district playoff team did. And
this seasons team has had
games against powerful squads
such as Pittston Area and Holy
Redeemer already, and they
have yet to surrender more than
48 points in a game.

The flagship program of the North Amer-
ican Lacrosse League may never play an ac-
tual game in the league as the Wilkes-Barre/
Scranton Shamrocks role has become a
seemingly nonexistent one.
The Shamrocks are no longer a part of the
newly formed lacrosse league, according to
the leagues website.
The Wilkes-Barre franchise is no longer
associated with the North American La-
crosse League, said a league statement on
the Shamrocks domain name wbshamrock-
s.com.
The website also directs users to call the
Mohegan Sun Arena at Casey Plazas ticket
office at 371-3825. The ticket office did not
return calls Sunday.
Squabbling between the NALLs acting
commissioner Anthony Caruso and its
teams continued Saturday when the league
saidinapress releasethat it obtainedafeder-
al court restrainingorder against Shamrocks
president JimJennings, several leaguerepre-
sentatives, and the Jacksonville and Char-
lotte franchises.
The release said the restraining order is
an effort to stop the dissemination of false
information and all league operations will
adhere to the January start date. The league
commissioner did not return calls Sunday.
Waterbucket Media, formerly the leagues
public relations firm, issued a Dec. 31 state-
ment that the league was moving its season
start date from January to September. On
Jan. 5, the league filed a civil lawsuit against
the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Jacksonville
and Charlotte presidents, and released its
own statement that the league intended on
beginning in January. The Times Leader re-
ported Wednesday that four of the leagues
now-former teams still intended to play in
the fall under the NALL name.
According to Saturdays release, the de-
fendants are prohibited from making any
communication to any person, including the
media, players, coaches, vendors or arenas
that the lacrosse season planned or sched-
uled to commence in January 2012has
been or is canceled.
Area lacrosse fans are also exhibiting frus-
tration at the uncertainty involving the
Shamrocks.
Season ticket holder Daniel Roberts, a
Fairfax, Va., native who is temporarily resid-
ing in the Wilkes-Barre area as a consultant,
said he never heard a word fromthe Sham-
rocks regardinghis ticket plan. Jennings told
The Times Leader on Jan. 5 that all season
ticket holders had been contacted about the
team pushing the season back.
If they were going to play, I would go,
said Roberts, who said he is not planning on
living in the area come fall. Im a lacrosse
fan, and it turns out I know of four or five of
the players that are from Virginia.
The league also announced Saturday the
formation of two franchises in Boston and
Allentown. The Boston Rockhoppers and
Lehigh Valley Flying Dutchmen will join the
NALLs lone remaining team, Kentucky
Stickhorses, in a six-game season slated to
begin Feb. 11. No arena venue or team infor-
mation for the expansion teams is available
on the leagues website.

Shamrocks a team with no league?
By JAY MONAHAN
For The Times Leader
Hours after watching his NewEngland offense
break four franchise postseason records to reach
the AFC championship, Bill OBrien was right
back on a plane.
An early wake-up call for a 6:15 a.m. flight to
State College followed the Patriots prime-time
win over Denver. It allowed Penn States new
head coach to get back to campus in time for the
tail end of a critical recruiting weekend.
That included his first face-to-face meeting
with Wyoming Valley Conference standout Eu-
gene Lewis, who took his official visit to the
school this weekend and came away still firmly
committed to the Nittany Lions.
Lewis, a quarterback at Wyoming Valley West
the past two seasons but a projected receiver in
college, saidhe has noplans tovisit other schools
before national signing day on Feb. 1.
No, Im pretty sure Im done and Im Penn
State all the way, Lewis said Sunday night after
returning home from State College.
Penn State has had to scramble to keep togeth-
er its 2012recruitingclass inthe past twomonths
inthe wake of the JerrySanduskyscandal andthe
firing of Joe Paterno.
This weekend was an important part of that
process, as the new coaching staff got to meet
with most of the teams verbal commitments.
Lewis had given his pledge to Paterno directly
back in August but remained committed to Penn
State amidst all the chaos, waiting to see who the
new head coach would be.
And on Sunday he to meet him personally.
Hes a great, intense guy, Lewis said of
OBrien. We just talkeda little bit about howhes
going to run things, and hes very excited. To be
the newhead coach, hes ready to start a newera
for Penn State and get everything on the right
track.
Lewis, The Times Leaders Co-Player of the
Year as a senior inthe WVC, alsogot tomeet with
his prospective position coach, Stan Hixon.
Along-time receivers coach in both the college
and NFL ranks, Hixon was also named assistant
head coach by Penn State last week.
Im excited for him to be my coach, Lewis
said. Hes definitely a guy I want to play for.
The weekend trip came after Lewis scored a
game-high 25 points in a Friday night basketball
game for Meyers, where he transferred to earlier
this semester. Making the visit with his father
and grandfather, Lewis weekend host was Lions
tight end Kyle Carter, who redshirted this past
season.
Saturday featured a presentation fromthe new
coaching staff, a tour of campus, a fewmeals and
catching a bit of TV to see the Patriots, who
OBrien still works for as offensive coordinator.
Though his father had to leave early Sunday to
get back to Wilkes-Barre, Lewis was able to stick
around to meet OBrien that morning, catching a
ride home with another District 2 star, Valley
View linebacker Nyeem Wartman.
Wartman also verbally committed to Penn
State this summer and will likely decide between
the Lions and Rutgers over the next few weeks,
according to multiple recruiting services.
Lewis said he and Wartman both enjoyed their
time in State College.
Hes excited, too, and his parents are very ex-
cited, Lewis said. Everything went very well.
OBrien may have some more company on
those plane rides between New England and
Centre County.
Penn State is expected to name Patriots offen-
sive assistant George Godsey as its new quarter-
backs coach, according to multiple reports on
Sunday out of Boston. Godsey wouldbecome the
ninth and final assistant for OBriens staff. The
other eight coaches were all officially announced
by the school last week.
Godsey, 33, was a two-year starter at quarter-
back for Georgia Tech while OBrien served as an
assistant coach for the Yellow Jackets.
Penn State will not name an offensive coordi-
nator, so Godsey will likely work closely with
OBrien, who will call plays on offense for the Li-
ons.

where I landed. When I sawwhere
I was, it was exciting.
The Giants defense also was
able to defuse the big-play abilities
of Aaron Rodgers and the Packers
offense.
Rodgers was 26 of 46 for 264
yards, with two touchdowns and
an interception. He also was the
Packers leading rusher with 66
yards on seven carries.
Meanwhile, the Packers past
problems with dropped balls by
their talentedgroupof widereceiv-
ers returned at the worst time
imaginable.
And while the Packers defense
has beenvulnerable all season, giv-
ing up far too many yards and big
plays, theyvetypicallymadeupfor
it by forcing turnovers.
This time, the Packers were the
ones giving the ball away.
GreenBaylost threefumbles, in-
cluding one on a rare giveaway by
Rodgers. The Giants also sacked
Rodgers four times.
WiththePackerstrailing20-10at
halftime but finally beginning to
look like themselves on offense to
start thesecondhalf, Osi Umenyio-
ra swatted the ball away from
Rodgers, and Deon Grant reco-
vered the fumble at the Green Bay
37.
With a 10-point lead, were go-
ing to get after you, Umenyiora
said. And thats what we did.
But the mistake didnt cost the
Packers points, and Green Bay cut
the lead to seven points on a 35-
yard field goal by Mason Crosby
late in the third quarter.
The Packers put together anoth-
er drive early in the fourth quarter,
but Michael Boley and Umenyiora
combined to sack Rodgers on
fourth-and-5 in Giants territory.
After carving up the Packers in
the first half, the Giants offense hit
a lull in the second half. But they
broke out of it todrive for a 35-yard
field goal by Lawrence Tynes to
take a 23-13 lead with 7:48 left to
play.
Packers running back Ryan
Grant then fumbled after catching
a pass and the Giants recovered,
taking the ball back deep into
Green Bay territory.
Manning then threw a 4-yard
touchdown pass to Mario Man-
ninghamand the Giants took a 30-
13 lead.
Rodgers rallied the Packers for a
16-yard touchdown pass to Donald
Driver, cutting the lead to 30-20
with 4:46 left.
The Packers then tried on on-
side kick, but the Giants Victor
Cruz recovered.
New Yorks Brandon Jacobs
scored on a 14-yard run with 2:36
left to put the game away.
It was an emotional day for the
Packers, who welcomed back of-
fensive coordinator Joe Philbin for
Sundays game two days after
the funeral service for Philbins 21-
year-old son, Michael.

Baltimores. The last time New
England and the Ravens met in
the playoffs a 2009 first-round
meeting Brady had his worst
postseason outing and tossed
threeinterceptionsina33-14loss.
The Ravens (13-4) fell short of
the Super Bowl that year, though,
and are still looking for their first
AFC crown under coach John
Harbaugh. This will be Har-
baughs second crack at clearing
that obstacle. Baltimore lost at
Pittsburgh, 23-14, in 2008.
Its always time to go ahead
and win one, said Harbaugh, a
former Eagles assistant. That
goes for this game and every
game, championshipgame, open-
er.
Theburdenof gettingtotheSu-
per Bowl also weighs heavily on
Flacco, who became the first
quarterback in league history to
reach the playoffs in each of his
first four seasons but rarely re-
ceives credit for those appearanc-
es.
Last week, Flacco joked that if
theRavensdidever wintheSuper
Bowl the media wouldsay he had
nothingtodowithwhywewon.
He certainly hadsomething to do
with Sundays victory throw-
ingtwotouchdownsandnot turn-
ing the ball over but he was of-
ten shaky and took a number of
needless sacks.
But even though Texans run-
ning back Arian Foster grinded
out 127 rushing yards, the Rav-
ens defense kept bailing out its
offense.
We feel like were the big
brother of the team, but our of-
fensewill get going, Ravens safe-
ty Ed Reed said.
Ravens cornerback Lardarius
Webb intercepted T.J. Yates
twice, and Reed added one late.
Houstons rookie quarterback
drove the Texans to the Balti-
more 38 with two minutes left.
But on first down, Yates went for
receiver Andre Johnson in the
end zone and Reed snatched his
eight career postseason pick.
Houston held on Baltimores
ensuing possession and got the
ball back with 45 seconds. But a
Yates Hail Mary went unan-
swered. Reed turned his ankle on
the play but said he would be
ready for the Patriots.
Sloppiness on offense and spe-
cial teams overshadowed a fine
defensive effort by the Texans
(11-7). They held Ravens running
back Ray Rice to 60 yards on 21
carries andhadagoal-linestopon
fourth down in the third quarter.
But Houston couldnt rebound
from a muffed punt by Jacoby
Jones that set up Baltimores first
touchdown.
Theres no excuse, he
shouldnt even be around the ball
once that happens, Texans
coach Gary Kubiak said.
In all, the Ravens scored 17
points off Houston turnovers.
Baltimore, on the other hand,
didnt give the ball away once and
wasnt called for a single penalty.
Still, it wasnt aprettygame, more
liketheuglybrother toSaturdays
San Francisco-New Orleans tilt,
won by JimHarbaughs 49ers.

HONOLULU Johnson
Wagner played bogey-free over
the last 12 holes and won the
Sony Open for his third PGA
Tour title.
Six players had a share of
the lead Sunday at some
point in the final round.
Wagner was the only player
who stayed there, closing
with a 3-under 67 for a two-
shot victory over Carl Petters-
son, Sean OHair, Harrison
Frazar and Charles Howell III.
The win puts Wagner in the
Masters, and keeps that mus-
tache around that has been
causing so much attention for
at least another week.
He ended his two-week
working vacation in Hawaii
with a tie for ninth at Kapa-
lua and a win at Waialae.
Going into the year, Wagner
had only seven top 10s in his
career.
He finished at 13 under.
Joburg Open
JOHANNESBURG South
Africas Branden Grace won
the Joburg Open for his first
European Tour title, closing
with an even-par 72 for a
one-stroke victory over En-
glands Jamie Elson.
The 23-year-old Grace com-
pleted a third-round 65 on
Sunday morning in the rain-
delayed event. He finished at
17-under 270 at Royal Johan-
nesburg and Kensington Golf
Club. Elson shot a 63.

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: Im a
40-year-old female
in the military who
has been married for
a few years. When I
got married, I was
slim, had a full head
of beautiful, long hair
and hardly any medical problems.
Over the last couple of years I have
developed a host of medical issues, all
related to the harsh conditions of my
deployments.
My husband is shorter than I am,
thin and three years younger. I have
gained more than 40 pounds due to
steroid treatments. I had to cut my
long hair because it was falling out
from stress. I look nothing like the
woman I was when we were married.
I look mannish!
Abby, my husband no longer seems
proud to be seen with me in pub-
lic. He wont hold my hand, and he
walks behind me or ahead of me so
it doesnt appear were together. He
pretends nothing is wrong.
Now that Im so unattractive, the
differences in height and our ages
bother me more. I am embarrassed,
ashamed, avoiding social situations
and becoming a recluse. Doctors
wont do anything to help me because
they say its a cosmetic issue. I dont
know where to begin to dig myself
out of this miserable existence.
No Longer Myself in Maryland
Dear No Longer Yourself: This isnt
a cosmetic issue. You are depressed!
Please consult both another primary
physician, preferably female, who can
identify with the feelings youre hav-
ing, and a psychologist.
Yes, you have put on weight, but
patients arent permanently on ste-
roids. Your hair will grow out with
time. But in the meantime, you may
need psychological counseling to get
you through this. Your husband may
not be less proud to be seen with you.
You may be projecting your own feel-
ings onto him.
Youre a strong woman. Please talk
to a psychologist who can help you
get your head straight. Happiness is
the best cosmetic there is, and once
you get a handle on your emotions,
you will become your old self again.
Dear Abby: This is an open letter
to parents out there who bring their
kids to adults-only events because
they couldnt get a baby sitter, but
didnt want to miss out on a fun time.
Listen, folks when you signed on
for parenthood, you gave up the privi-
lege to party anytime you want.
I attended a 50th birthday party to
which one mom brought her 5-year-
old daughter. She then requested
the host sanitize the event, but he
refused. That mom spent most of the
time covering her childs eyes.
Not only was there a racy birthday
cake and adult toys as gifts, but the
adults werent holding back in conver-
sations, either. Instead of leaving, the
mom stayed until the male strip-
per started performing. She was mad,
but it was her own fault that her little
daughter witnessed more than she
should have.
Parents should be grown-ups. That
means occasionally missing out on
something because they are no lon-
ger single and childless. Please dont
mess up somebodys party with your
selfishness.
Responsible Mom in L.A.
Dear Responsible Mom: I agree. You
have stated it well. Not only was it
unfair to the host and other guests, it
was inappropriate for the child.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Military woman torn by health issues yearns to feel whole once again
To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in
Canada) to: Dear Abbys Keepers, P.O.
Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447.
(Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). A sacri-
fice for the sake of family is so
easy to make youll hardly realize
that youre doing it. Helping your
loved ones is automatic its just
who you are.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A cer-
tain someone makes you smile
on the inside, but you dont dare
react on the outside in the same
way. Youll see the benefit in
playing your cards close to the
vest.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). It will be
necessary for you to work along-
side someone with whom you
seem to have absolutely nothing
in common, other than the fact
that youre both carbon-based
life forms. Youll enjoy this!
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Delays
cant be helped but frustration
can. Youll practice patience and
look for the opportunity inherent
in every problem. Youll over-
come obstacles and succeed.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Anything
worth knowing takes time and
practice to learn. Be patient and
go through all the steps. Learn
the rules first. It will make break-
ing them a lot more fun.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
have a strong sense of practical-
ity, and it will be difficult for you
to act in any way that seems
inefficient or wasteful. Just
make sure you dont skimp on
fun laughter is nothing to be
frugal about.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). People
respond favorably to you. It will
feel as though everyone wants
you to achieve your goal. The
better you can communicate
your desire, the more likely it is
to be met.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You
can explore the world via books,
computers and television but
theres nothing like exploring it
in person. Your mind will expand
in surprising ways as you visit
new places.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Status quo is fine for some, but
youre far too restless to accept
it for long. Youre ready for a
pattern to be interrupted. Youll
be open to new ideas, and youll
generate a few of your own.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Important introductions will
be made. Dont wait for some-
one else to break the ice. Your
warmth does the trick every
time. Youll find conversation
both informative and inspiring.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Just when you think youve
adapted to a new reality, things
develop unexpectedly. Stay flex-
ible. Changes on the outside
will eventually prompt internal
changes.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You like
being on the cutting edge. Your
curiosity comes alive and youll
be motivated to learn a new
hobby or enhance your job skills.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Jan. 16).
There will be new delights to
savor. Your tastes and prefer-
ences will continue to develop
and even those who know you
well will find that theres much
to learn about you. February
brings a commitment and per-
haps a contract, too. March is
your chance to turn over a new
leaf with someone. April brings
a windfall. Pisces and Scorpio
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 3, 9, 21, 29 and 19.
