Luzerne County managers
were grilled by the County
Council and County Interim
Manager Tom
Pribula for hours
Tuesday about
their ability to re-
duce expenses and
execute up to 103
budget-related
staff cuts.
The 103 layoffs
may be necessary to meet the re-
duced $118 million in revenue
projected to be available this
year without a property-tax in-
crease, Pribula said during the
council work session.
Pribula has removed $3.7 mil-
lion fromthe $121.7 million bud-
get bequeathed by the prior ad-
ministrationbecausehebelieved
the revenue was
not realistic andat-
tainable.
Council mem-
bers last week re-
jected a 3.93 per-
cent tax increase,
which would have
generated $3.5
million and lowered the number
of staff cuts to 56.

WHAT S NEXT
LUZERNE COUNTY COUNCIL
HANOVER TWP. -- Kraft
Foods Inc. will eliminate 60 posi-
tions at its office in the Hanover
Industrial Estates as the compa-
ny prepares for a restructuring
that will split the company in
two and cut 1,600 jobs in North
America in 2012.
The Northfield, Ill.-based food
company said Tuesday that it
plans to eliminate positions in its
sales, corporate and other busi-
ness units throughout the U.S.
and Canada during the coming
year.
Krafts corpo-
rate spokeswo-
man Valerie
Moens said
Kraft would
eliminate 60 of
730 positions
in its office at
50 Commerce
Drive as it re-
aligns its cus-
tomer service
and logistics di-
visions into an
integrated sup-
ply chain.
We are
working to
minimize the
impact wherev-
er possible
through attrition and open posi-
tions, Moens said.
The layoffs announced Tues-
day come days after Offset Pa-
perback Manufacturers said it
would cut 69 positions at its
plant in Dallas.
Lawrence M. Newman, vice
president of Policy, Planning and
Development for the Greater
Wilkes-Barre Chamber of Busi-
ness & Industry, said different
market forces motivated the cuts
at the two local companies.
While Offsets reductions had
to do with an overall contraction
of the print publishing industry,
Newman said the restructuring
at Kraft is indicative of a compa-
ny adjusting to a global economy
and changes in technology.
The unfortunate reality is
that we continue to have an in-
creasingly globalized market-
place and we continue to have an
economy that still has not re-
gained its appetite for consumer
spending, Newman said. And
so there continue to be ramifica-
tions like the one that you saw
today.

MUNICIPAL BRIEFS
YATESVILLE Tuesday
nights Pittston Area School
Board meeting opened with a
prepared statement from board
member Bruce Knick, who was
charged with driving under the
influence after the boards Dec. 7
reorganization meeting.
Knick was absent from the
Dec. 20 regular board meeting.
I take full responsibility and I
feel that all things happen for a
reason, Knick said of the inci-
dent.
He said he has entered a reha-
bilitation program and this kind
of mistake will never happen
again.
He did not, however, state
whether he would be resigning
from the school board.
After the meeting, Knick de-
clined to elaborate on his state-
ment. When asked what consid-
eration he might give to a candi-
date for a teaching position who
had been charged with a DUI,
Knick refused to answer, stating
that he urgently needed to sign
some papers.
Also on Tuesday, discussions
on hiring and anti-nepotism pol-
icies again surfaced.
Superintendent George Cos-
grove said the board would like-
ly have a draft of a new hiring
policy within the month.
With regard to a separate anti-
nepotism policy, board member
Robert Linskey urged the board
to at least engage in a public dis-
cussion regarding the form the
policy would likely take.
He praised measures taken by
the Millcreek Township School
District in Erie County, which he
felt went far beyond the guide-
lines established by the state De-
partment of Education.
School Board Solicitor Joseph
Sapporito distributed literature
to the board regarding a case
that came before the federal
First Circuit Court of Appeals
concerning hiring practices of
the Boston, Mass., Fire Depart-
ment.
According to Sapporito, that
case was thrown out by the court
after it was determined that hir-
ing practices based on familial
relations and political affiliations
did not necessarily constitute
discriminatory practices.
Board President Anthony
Guariglia commended Linskey
and Sapporito for their diligence
and advised all board members
to make similar reviews of rele-
vant policies and legal rulings
before engaging in a public dis-
cussion at a board meeting.
In other news, the board voted
to approve Pittston Citys re-
quest to grant a tax abatement
for the former Valley Cat Rescue
at 71 S. Main Street. The proper-
ty was demolished in late 2011.

Munchak request opposed
Federal prosecutors on Tuesday filed
court papers opposing former Lacka-
wanna County Commissioner A.J.
Munchaks request to reduce his sen-
tence on corruption charges based on
his community service.
Munchak had filed a motion in Octo-
ber seeking to reduce his sentence
based on what he claims was extraor-
dinary service to various community
groups. But U.S. Attorney Peter J.
Smith said Munchaks involvement
with the community
is nothing out of the
ordinary.
Munchak and his
co-defendant, former
Commissioner Robert
Cordaro, are sched-
uled to be sentenced
on Jan. 30 for their
convictions on mul-
tiple corruption-related charges.
Prosecutors said the men used their
positions as commissioners to extort
businesses who wished to get county
contracts.
Under federal law, defendants can
seek to reduce their sentence if they
can show they have provided excep-
tional service to the community over
their lifetime.
Munchak noted he donated more
than 180 pints of blood and claimed
that he had provided 236 years in
service to the community, church and
charitable organizations.

County Bikes &Walks Committee took
a survey to help determine its mission,
and one respondent may have summed
it up best.
Better, smarter, healthier, safer, pret-
tier, more thoughtful pedestrian and
bike-friendly road projects. Hey, if we
are going to spend millions of dollars on
this stuff, we should get all of the above
and move the cars, too.
Since its last meeting Nov. 30, the
group polled its constituents, as well as
members of a local walking group and a
bus-riders coalition, in effort to increase
membership and become more orga-
nized.
Based on the input of 40 respondents,
the group determined at its Tuesday
meeting that it would act as a voice for
both the cyclists and pedestrians who
share the areas streets and sidewalks,
and formed committees to tackle a
range of topics beyond creating aware-
ness of cyclists and infrastructure for
them to use.
But creating better infrastructure for
cyclists will remain a key focus for the
group.

DALLAS TWP. Two supervisors
agreed upon a third and appointed oth-
er township officials at a meeting Tues-
day.
Supervisors Frank Wagner and Liz
Martin chose from12 candidates for the
position of supervisor, left vacant by
longtime township official Phil Walter.
Walter abruptly resigned at a meet-
ing in December, while Wagner and
Glenn Howell were still on the board.
Martin replaced Howell after defeating
him in the November general election.
Walter and Martin chose three names
and both had chosen longtime resident
William Grant, chief executive officer of
Hildebrandt Learning Centers LLC.
Grant, 58, said he has never served
on a municipal board, but is part of the
Back Mountain Memorial Library
Board of Directors and the Pennsylva-
nia Child Care Association.
The board also announced the res-
tructuring of its
emergency manage-
ment agency. The
supervisors voted
to make the town-
ship part of the
Back Mountain Re-
gional Emergency
Management Asso-
ciation, which cur-
rently includes Dal-
las Borough and Jackson, Lehman and
Lake townships.
With what we have going on in Dal-
las Township, with being at ground ze-
ro for two natural gas pipelines with the
possibility of more, I really felt we need-
ed to beef up our EMA , said Martin.
Alan Pugh, a former Dallas Township
police officer and lifetime member of
the Northmoreland and Dallas fire de-
partments, was named as the emergen-
cy management director.
Dallas Fire Chief Harry Vivian and
Kunkle Fire Chief Jack Dodson were
named as deputy coordinators.
The board also held interviews for
the position of zoning officer with the
recent retirement of Leonard Kozick,
who served in that position for 38 years.
Carl Alber was chosen as Kozicks
successor. Alber, of Mocanaqua, cur-
rently has zoning and code enforcement
experience in Dallas Borough and Bear
Creek and Jackson townships.
In other business, residents who live
on Sedlar Lane addressed the board
about the condition of the road after
Williams Field Services LLC recently
finished construction on the Springville
Gathering Line.
Roadmaster Ron Buchman said he
has contacted Williams officials to clean
up the road, but was told the company
wasnt ready to clean debris off the
road.
Solicitor Thomas Brennan also said
the planning commission put stringent
guidelines into its approval of the com-
panys pipeline project, and runoff con-
cerns would need to be dealt with by
the township engineer.

WILKES-BARRE A Luzerne
County jury was selected Tuesday to
hear the case of a Larksville man who
prosecutors say raped a young girl
over a several-month period in 2010.
A jury of nine men and five women,
including two alternates, was chosen
to hear the case of Kyle Robert Hen-
ninger, 30, of East Luzerne Avenue.
He is charged with rape of a child,
statutory sexual assault, involuntary
deviate sexual intercourse, indecent
assault, incest and child endanger-
ment. The trial is expected to last
until Thursday.
Henninger is represented by attor-
ney Demetrius Fannick. Assistant
District Attorney Maureen Collins is
prosecuting the case, and Luzerne
County Judge Tina Polachek Gartley
is presiding.
According to court papers, a
then-12-year-old girl reported to a Lu-
zerne County Children & Youth work-
er that Henninger had been sexually
assaulting her over a four-month peri-
od from August to November 2010.
The girl told investigators the
abuse happened on several occasions,
and that Henninger was known to
her.
Guidance counselors at the girls
school had reported the abuse to a
Children and Youth worker.
When police notified Henninger of
the allegations, he said, I do not
want to go back to jail, the criminal
complaint says.
Court records indicate Henninger
was jailed at the county prison in
April 2006 on domestic assault charg-
es involving his wife.
The assault charges were dismissed
when his wife opted not to testify
against him at a preliminary hearing
in May 2006.

pine trees that ob-

tombstones in the
Forty Fort Cemetery.
This is someones

said pointing to a
marker accessible on-

large branches.
Concert, a fre-

various public offices
who won a seat on
Swoyersville Bor-
oughCouncil last No-
vember, said he has no family or loved
ones buried in the cemetery, but had
stopped by Monday because of his in-

The cemetery stones boast names of
some local families prominent in set-
tling the valley, including Denison,
Hoyt, Slocum and Swetland. It sits ad-

Nobodys final resting place should
look like that, Concert said of the nu-
merous graves partially or completely
obstructed by downed trees. Some-
body has to take care of the cemetery.
That somebody would be the Forty
Fort Cemetery Association, a routinely
cash-strapped group currently headed
by Matt Schooley. Calls to Schooley
went unreturned Tuesday, though
Nancy Lycos, who has helped restora-
tion efforts for the Meeting House,
noted Schooley lives in NewJersey but
travels to Wyoming Valley frequently
to care for his aging mother.
They had estimates as far as remov-
al of the downed trees, Lycos said, but

WILKES-BARRE A city man
charged for his role in a $15 mil-
lion heroin trafficking ring was
sentencedTuesday tothree tosix
years in state prison.
David A. Johnson Jr.,
21, with a last known ad-
dress of Carlisle Street,
was sentenced by Lu-
zerne County Senior
Judge Kenneth Brown
on charges of corrupt or-
ganizations, criminal
conspiracy and delivery
of a controlled sub-
stance.
Johnson was charged
as part of an investiga-
tion by the state Office
of Attorney General
called Operation
Bloodstain, which net-
ted17 people who inves-
tigators say distributed 1.5 mil-
lion heroin packets in Northeast-
ern Pennsylvania since January
2007.
Narcotics agents believe the or-
ganization purchased 50 to 100
bricks of heroin every two to four
days in Newark, N.J., and New
York City to sell in the Wyoming
Valley.
Investigators alleged Johnson
was part of the Sex, Money, Mur-
der sect of the Bloods gang that
stamped heroin packets with cer-
tain names, including Overdose,
Body Bag, Obama 09 and RIP to
designate their brand.
Johnson and eight other al-
leged gang members were
charged in the ring, as well as
eight non-gang-related members.
Johnson, represented by attor-
ney Mark Mack, was given credit
for time already served from Oc-
tober 2010 to Tuesday. He plead-
ed guilty to the charges in No-
vember.
Deputy Attorney General Tim
Doherty prose-
cuted the case.
Six non-gang
members have
pleaded guilty to
related charges
and have been
sentenced.
Tyrone Lan-
caster, 29, of
Wilkes-Barre,
has pleaded
guilty and is
scheduled to be
sentenced on
Feb. 3, while
Kahlil Lewis, 22,
address un-
known, is await-
ing a pre-trial conference on Feb.
23.
Five alleged gang members are
awaiting trial, while two have
pleadedguilty andhave beensen-
tenced.
Frederick Leonard, 21, no last
known address, has pleaded
guilty and is scheduled to be sen-
tenced on Jan. 20.

residents of the city dont own a

have to make it safe and conve-
nient for them. Its not just an ec-
onomic issue its a social justice
issue.
Poll-takers named infrastruc-
ture building as the most impor-
tant goal for the committee, with
50 percent indicating an interest
inbicycle commuting, andmem-
ber Michele Schasberger of Live
Well Luzerne County said she
hopes to soon seek funding for a
multi-modal traffic study of
downtown Wilkes-Barre; some-
thingthat hasnt beendone since
the 1970s.
In an effort to build and sus-
tain that infrastructure, the
group met Tuesday with Stefa-
nie Pollock, district director for
U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, and
asked Barletta to support fund-
ing to expand Northeastern
Pennsylvanias roads and trails
and make them safer for bicy-
clists and walkers.
Barletta, R-Hazleton, sits on
the House Transportation and
Infrastructure Committee, as
does U.S. Rep. Tim Holden, D-
St. Clair, who if re-elected, will
represent Wilkes-Barre in 2013.
ShawnKelly, communications
director for Barletta, said his
boss would consider support-
ing projects that provide safe, ac-
cessible trails, walks and paths
for people who like to walk or
bike for recreation or to com-
mute, Kelly said.
Trish Reilly, Holdens commu-
nications director, said Holden
supports funding for trails, bike
lanes and pedestrian safety.
She said he also supported the
Safe and Complete Streets Act,
whichrequires eachstatetohave
in effect within two years a law
or policy statement that requires
federally funded transportation
projects to accommodate the
safety and convenience of all us-
ers, including riders and pedes-
trians.
Members of the committee
told Pollock funding will be
more critical in the future be-
cause more and more people
for various reasons will be bik-
ing and walking rather than us-
ing cars in their everyday lives.
Many people are riding a bike
todaybecause theyhave to, said
Tom Jones, a committee mem-
ber. This is their way of getting
from point A to point B every
day.

The U.S. Supreme Court re-
fused to hear appeals in cases,
including that of a Schuylkill
County teen, asking whether
school officials can limit what
students say online from their
home computers.
The cases offered the justic-
es an opportunity to define
how far beyond the school
yard gate educators can reach
to discipline students for dis-
ruptive speech.
In two Pennsylvania cases,
school officials sought to chal-
lenge a U.S. 3rd Circuit Court
of Appeals decision reversing
discipline for students who
created scathing parodies of
their school principals on the
social network site Myspace-
.com.
In one case involving a stu-
dent at Blue Mountain School
District in Orwigsburg,
Schuylkill County, an eighth-
grade girl created a Myspace
page with her principals pho-
to calling him a pervert and
pedophile. In the other Penn-
sylvania case, a high school
student from Mercer County
created a parody that said his
principal smoked marijuana
and kept beer behind his desk.
The West Virginia case in-
volved a student disciplined
for calling a classmate a slut
with herpes.
In the Pennsylvania case,
the 3rd Circuit judges ruled
the postings, however lewd or
offensive, were not likely to
cause significant disruptions
at school and are therefore
protected under prior Su-
preme Court case law, the 3rd
U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
found.

Gas drill foes oppose bills
With state lawmakers returning to
Harrisburg, gas-drilling opponents are
protesting legislation that they say
would take away local officials ability
to control the activity.
About 150 members of
environmentalist groups
and local citizen activists
staged a raucous rally in
the Capitol Rotunda on
Tuesday that targeted
two competing bills to
regulate the fast-growing
industry.
They criticized a provision in both
bills one approved by the House, the
other by the Senate that would
designate the state Attorney Generals
Office as the arbiter of local zoning
disputes.
One speaker, Maria Payan of York
County, said the bill would prevent
citizens from passing laws to protect
their own health and safety.

Protesters affiliated with the Occupy
Wall Street movement met Tuesday
outside the Capitol for what participa-

the country.
While the rally was mostly peaceful,
there were some scuffles between po-
lice and protesters along walkways
leading to the Capitol. By mid-after-
noon Tuesday, four people had been
arrested, U.S. Capitol Police said
one for assaulting a police officer and
three for crossing a police line.
Participants say they are decrying

MADISON, WIS.
Gov. recall signatures vast
Groups seeking to recall Gov. Scott
Walker submitted nearly twice as many
signatures Tuesday as required to force
an election, an overwhelming number
that may make a vote later this year
inevitable.
But Walkers foes still must trans-
form public outrage over his pushback
against unions into actual votes to oust
him from office. If Walker is worried,
hes not showing it: As petitions were
delivered to election officials, Walker
was out of state raising money to de-
fend himself and the agenda that has
made him a national conservative hero.
The 1 million signatures collected far
exceeds the 540,208 needed and is 23
percent of the states eligible voters.
Also, more than enough signatures
were gathered to force recall elections
of Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch and four
Republican state senators, including
Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald.

FLORENCE, S.C. Seekingtoprotect
his standinghere, Republicanpresidential
front-runner Mitt Romney on Tuesday as-
sailed challenger Rick Santorums record
on voting rights for felons, an issue that
resonates strongly with conservatives.
Santorum accused the former Massachu-
setts governor of promoting lies about
him as the two intensified their dispute
fromthe previous nights GOP debate.
Romney tried to tamp down another
contentious, lingering issue by offering a
snippet of his personal tax picture while
sayinghe wouldnt publiclyrelease his tax
return until April. The multimillionaire
former businessman said he pays an in-
come tax rate close to 15 percent well
below the 35 percent applied to the na-
tions top earners because his income
mostly comes frominvestments.
Romney, hoping a strong and third
straight win in Saturdays South Carolina
primary will all but lockupthe
nomination, made a point
Tuesday of answering criti-
cism from Santorum, the for-
mer Pennsylvania senator try-
ing to unite conservative vot-
ers to block Romneys path.
We have a candidate whos
not going to stand up and tell the truth,
Santorum told reporters in Charleston,
complaining that Romney refuses to con-
demn misleading TV ads. That leads to
real serious questions about whether that
man can be trusted to tell the truth on a
variety of things.
Speaking separately in Florence, Rom-
ney defended the accuracy of the ads in
question, althoughhemaintains hehas no
control over the negative commercials
that are floodingSouthCarolina media by
outside groups that support his candida-
cy.
I hear that Rick Santorum is very ani-
mated that the super PAC ad says that he
is very in favor of felons voting,
Romneysaid. Well, heis! Thats
his position.
Romneys other three challen-
gers tried a host of different at-
tacks in hopes of knocking him
off stride in the debate. They
kept the spotlight on his wealth
and business dealings by pressing him to
release his income tax returns before this
weekends vote.
Romney told reporters Tuesday that he
would release his 2011tax return in April.
Whats the effective rate Ive been pay-
ing? Its probably closer to the 15 percent
rate than anything, Romney said, refer-
ringtothe taxrate oninvestment income.
The average Americanhouseholdwill pay
9.3 percent in federal income taxes, al-
though that rate climbs to 19.7 percent
when other federal payroll taxes, for So-
cial Security and Medicare, are included.
Investment income isnt subject to those
taxes.

WASHINGTON They came
from Mars, not in peace, but in
pieces.
Scientists are confirming that
15 pounds of rock collected re-
cently in Morocco fell to Earth
from Mars during a meteorite
shower last July.
This is onlythefifthtimeinhis-
tory scientists have chemically
confirmed Martian meteorites
that people witnessed falling.
The fireball was spotted in the
sky six months ago, but the rocks
werent discoveredonthe ground
in North Africa until the end of
December.
This is an important and
unique opportunity for scientists
tryingtolearnabout Mars poten-
tial for life.
The biggest rock weighs over 2
pounds.
A special committee Tuesday
of meteorite experts, including
some NASA scientists, con-
firmed test results that showed
the rocks came fromMars, based
on their age and chemical signa-
ture.
Astronomers think that mil-
lions of years ago something big
smashed into Mars and sent
rocks hurtling through the solar
system.
Most other Martian meteorite
samples sat around on Earth for
millions of years or at the very
least, decades before they
were discovered, which makes
them tainted with Earth materi-
als and life.
These new rocks, while still
probably contaminated because
they have been on Earth for
months, are purer.
The last time a Martian meteo-
rite fell and was found fresh was
in 1962. All the known Martian
rocks onEarthadduptoless than
240 pounds.

aboard until the ship was evacuated.

SANTA ANA, Calif. A 23-
year-old Iraq War veteran
charged with the stabbing
deaths of four homeless men
in a rampage that terrorized
Southern California had se-
lected additional victims, pros-
ecutors said Tuesday.
Former Marine Itzcoatl
Ocampo chose the final victim
because the man appeared in a
news article about police
warning homeless men to be
careful, Orange County Dis-
trict Attorney
Tony Rack-
auckas said.
All four
victims were
stalked and
the killer
looked for
the right op-
portunity to execute them, he
said.
The district attorney said a
panel will be convened to de-
cide whether to seek the death
penalty.
The charges include special
allegations of multiple mur-
ders and lying in wait and use
of a deadly weapon.
Rackauckas said prosecu-
tors have no indication that
Ocampo is mentally ill.
Ocampos family said he was
a troubled man when he re-
turned from Iraq. Ocampos
own father is also homeless.
Police arrested Ocampo
when bystanders chased him
down after 64-year-old John
Berry was stabbed to death
outside a fast-food restaurant
in Anaheim.
Suspect in killings of homeless people stalked them, district attorney says

D
avid Howard Bache born, on
June 4, 1924, passed away on
Tuesday, January 10, 2012.
One great, strong, unselfish soul
in every community would actually
redeemthe world. -Elbert Hubbard
David was the fourth of six chil-
dren born to Thomas Cartwright
Bache and Edith Louise Davies in
the coal mining community of Nan-
ticoke, Pennsylvania.
His parents were grocers and
farmers and his childhood spent as-
sisting with both ventures colored
the rest of his life.
Despite a difficult family life and
the tragic death of his mother at age
5, he found mentors and surrogate
parents in his maternal grandmoth-
er, Elizabeth Elmy Bache, and
among his fathers employees, and
always credited these people for
shaping him and his life, and instill-
ing the values of honesty andthe joy
of work.
He came to Purdue University in
West Lafayette, Ind., to study agri-
culture, and here he met the McKee
family -- Professor James Hugh
McKee; his wife, Emma, and their
daughter, Emma Molly McKee,
whomhe married on March 9, 1945.
David enlisted in the military
during World War II and was pre-
pared for but never saw combat.
After his military discharge, Da-
vid and Molly returned to Pennsyl-
vania with their infant son, William,
born in 1946, to manage and work
on Maywood Farms, owned by his
father.
David and Molly loved farming,
and the family grew; daughters,
Molly Jane, was born in1949, and
Susan in 1951. Later, daughter, Sal-
ly, was born in Indiana in 1960. The
family they made together is
blessed with the closeness and af-
fection missing fromhis own youth.
Whenfamilial frictions endedDa-
vids farming career, the family re-
turned to West Lafayette and Pur-
due, moving into the McKee house-
hold, where David and Molly both
livedout the rest of their lives under
the McKee family roof.
He acquired a Ph.D. in Agricultu-
ral Economics in 1968, and secured
a position on the faculty of Purdue
University, primarily working with
Purdues Agricultural Extension
Service.
His special area of expertise was
in the economics of pork produc-
tion. He received the Hovde award
in 1985. His work was also recog-
nized by awards from: The Indiana
Farm Management Association,
The Purdue Extension Specialists
Association, The American Agricul-
tural Economics Association, and
The Indiana Pork Producers.
David retired from Purdue Uni-
versity in 1988.
After the untimely deathof Molly
in 1986, David married Mary Elea-
nor Shoaff, and they created a last-
ing marriage of mutual affection
and respect.
David was graced with a keen in-
tellect and a gentle wit. He would
rather work than play; always the
farmer at heart, he loved maintain-
ing his West Lafayette property.
His devotion to family history in-
spired him to research the genealo-
gyof bothsides of his childrens fam-
ily. He was a kind, just and moral
person who embodied all the best
qualities of a true liberal.
He is survived by his wife, Mary
Eleanor Bache, Asheville, N.C.; sis-
ter, Dorothy Derrico, Allentown;
half-brother, Carter Bache, Bensa-
lem, Pa.; children William McKee
Bache, Tucson, Ariz.; Molly Jane
Sanford, Dayton, Ohio; Susan Eliza-
beth Brewer, Portland, Maine, and
Sally Ann Bache, Raleigh, N.C.; six
grandchildren and seven great-
grandchildren.
He will be deeply missed by all
who knew him.
A private service will be
held.
Gifts in his memory can be made
to National Public Radio, which he
listened to daily until his death.

I believe it is now time for our
party to unite around the
candidate best equipped to defeat
Barack Obama.
Jon Huntsman
The contender for the Republican presidential nomination withdrew
from the race Monday and tossed his support to Mitt Romney, the
former Massachusetts governor.
Republican Perry fails
writers leadership test
R
epublican candidates are campaigning
to be able to run against Barack Oba-
ma for the presidency. Although they
have the countrys best interest in mind, I
tend to disagree with some of their views.
I am very disappointed in candidate
Rick Perry. I do not understand how he
expects to be taken seriously when he
says, theres something wrong in this
country when gays can serve openly in the
military but our kids cant openly celebrate
Christmas or pray in school.
He does realize that homosexuals, non-
homophobes and people of different reli-
gions can vote, right? Those gays openly
serving are risking their lives to protect
his.
I believe there are problems much more
crucial that need to be addressed. Is he
focusing on the national debt? No. Is he
thinking of new ways to establish better
and stronger foreign relations? No, he is
too preoccupied with letting faith take its
course to save our country.
America needs a strong, dependable
leader. Unfortunately, I do not consider
Rick Perry to be the leader we need.

National Defense Act
takes away our rights
I
am afraid to say that President Barack
Obama late last month signed the Na-
tional Defense Authorization Act for
2012.
This act essentially takes the Bill of
Rights and throws it into a fire. This new
law allows the government to arrest and
indefinitely detain U.S. citizens without a
trial by jury.
NDAA is the most un-American and
unconstitutional document that has ever
passed through the presidents hands with
his signature on it.
Instead of working on our terrible eco-
nomic issues, President Obama was busy
taking away one of our most prized rights:
the right of habeas corpus. I can only hope
that the other two branches of government
have some common sense and put this
tyrannical law in the grave where it be-
longs.
Please, fellow Americans, I ask you to
stand up against this law and protect all of
your freedoms.

Reader thinks caption
too politically correct
I
saw the photograph of a stained-glass
window in the rotunda at the Luzerne
County Courthouse in Fridays edition of
The Times Leader. The photo is really
beautiful. However, I do take issue with
the caption depicting a winged figure.
Has The Times Leader become so obvi-
ously politically correct that it cannot
describe an angel as an angel?
A winged figure. Really! Im sure the
majority of readers viewed that picture,
and the first thought they had was of an
angel, not a winged figure.

NEARLY 80 percent of
adults experience back pain
at least once in their life-
times. With symptoms that
range from dull discomfort
to sharp pain or radiating
numbness, back pain has
many causes. And with the predictable rise of
back injuries during winter, now is a good
time to think about protecting your back.
The term back pain is a broad phrase
that has various meanings for individuals.
Because the back is so complex, pain can be
caused by a host of problems or injuries.
Among the possible causes: mechanical prob-
lems, such as when a spinal disc deteriorates
due to age or strenuous overwork; injuries,
such as sprains, fractures, muscle tears or
ligament damage; acquired conditions, such
as arthritis, scoliosis, pregnancy or kidney
stones; and, rarely, infection or tumors.
Remember, its always best to consult with
your physician, who is in the best position to
diagnose your symptoms and offer a correc-
tive course of treatment.
There are two types of risk factors for the
development of back pain: uncontrollable and
controllable. Uncontrollable risk factors in-
clude age and gender. Men and people mid-
dle-aged or older tend to suffer more back
pain. Also, having a personal or family histo-
ry of back pain can suggest future troubles.
Individuals born with spine problems and
those who have had compression fractures of
the spine or have undergone back surgery
also have greater risk. And pregnancy is
considered an uncontrollable risk factor for
back pain.
Some risk factors, however, can be con-
trolled. Controllable factors include a seden-
tary lifestyle, being overweight, smoking,
poor posture, performing strenuous work
without proper movement or body mechan-
ics, and emotional stress.
To prevent back pain, individuals should
focus on reducing or eliminating controllable
risk factors. Quitting smoking and maintain-
ing a healthy weight are beneficial for every-
one. And even mild regular exercise can help
keep your back healthy.
Decide which controllable risk factors
affect you, and make the changes needed to
keep your back strong. Many insurers such as
Blue Cross of Northeastern Pennsylvania
offer their members wellness and support
programs to help them make changes. At
BCNEPA, for example, our Blue Health Solu-
tions program is available to all covered indi-
viduals to help them manage chronic condi-
tions, quit smoking or simply start down the
path of a healthier lifestyle.
Because were in the midst of winter, its
also important to be aware of how wintry
weather can impact your back. Slips, falls and
shoveling snow can lead to back pain. When
you venture onto ice or snow, wear shoes
with firm grip soles. Spread sand, ashes or
other non-slip material on walkways, and be
smart about shoveling. Push snow with a
shovel, if possible. If you must lift it, bend at
the knees, take small scoops and throw the
snow forward. Avoid twisting or throwing
over your shoulder.
As with any medical condition, speak with
your physician if you have questions about
back pain. By being smart and knowing your
risks, you can prevent back pain from getting
in the way of activities you enjoy.
For more information about back pain,
speak with your health professional or visit

S COMIC RELIEF in
the classic Bruce Wil-
lis movieDieHard, a
beleaguered Bruce,
fighting off terrorists in a high-
rise building, finds an ancient
but still edible Twinkie. He reac-
hes out by radio to Twinkie-ad-
dictedpoliceSgt. Al Powell (por-
trayed by Reginald Vel Johnson)
and asks whats in a Twinkie.
Sugar, enrichedflour, partial-
ly hydrogenated vegetable oil,
polysorbate 60 and yellow dye
No. 5, Al replies. Everything a
growing boy needs.
Well, yes. But as America has
learned since Hostess Brands
bakers of Twinkies, Ho-Hos,
Drakes Cakes, Ding-Dongs,
Wonder Bread and dozens of
other delicious delights filed
for bankruptcy protection last
week, the entire American econ-
omy is inside a Twinkie, slath-
ered in a mysterious cream-like
filling.
The predecessor firm, Inter-
state Bakeries of Kansas City,
grew by gobbling up smaller
firms (goodbye, mom and pop
shops) andbigcompetitors, too.
Overextended, Interstate op-
erated in bankruptcy between
2004 and 2009, emerging after
Ripplewood Holdings, a private
equity firm (hello, venture vs.
vulture capitalist controversy)
took over and renamed it Host-
ess.
The reorganization wasnt
enough. Hostess now says it is
weighed down by rising com-
modity and transportation costs
(hello, worldwide demand and
risingfuel costs) andlegacypen-
sion and health care benefits
owedtoits unionretirees (good-
bye, vanishing middle class).
Hostess faces aggressive inter-
national competition fromMex-
icos Grupo Bimbo (hello, glob-
alization).
The company and its unions
say they are in good-faith nego-
tiations about pension changes,
but clearly some reductions are
coming and some jobs will be
lost. If the bankruptcy court al-
lows the company to dump its
pension obligations, the govern-
ments Pension Benefit Guaran-
ty Corp. would be on the hook
(hello, deficits).
Blame unions? Blame poor
business decisions and overlev-
eraged investors? Blame our-
selves? If wed all been like Sgt.
Powell, this wouldnt have hap-
pened.

T
HE TROUBLE WITH binge drinkers in Northeastern
Pennsylvania, a region recently identified as a U.S. hotspot
for this risky behavior, is that they delude themselves into
thinking they dont fit the mold of an alcohol abuser.
Sorry, friends. Youdont needtoliveinacollegedormroomtobea
binge drinker; in fact, an estimated 70 percent of binge drinking epi-
sodes that occur intheUnitedStates eachyear involvepeopleage26
or older, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Preven-
tion.
Not an alcoholic? Neither are an estimated 80 percent or more of
bingedrinkers. Oh, andtheadults most commonlyinvolvedinbinge
drinking earn more than $50,000 per year.
You might have a drinking problem, according to information
available at Helpguide.org, if you
Regularly drink more than you intended.
Feel guilty or ashamed about your drinking.
Lie to others about, or hide, your drinking habits.
Need to drink in order to relax or feel better.
Black out or forget what you did while you were drinking.
Have family members or friends who are worried about your
drinking.
The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton region recently earned the dubious
distinction of ranking fourth in the nation for its percentage of ad-
mitted binge drinkers, at 21.4 percent, according to a CDC survey.
The danger to our health and to our community is tremendous.
Yet certain people, maybe you, want to pretend nothing is wrong.
Get real.

ties for people dealing with alcohol abuse by calling Help Line at

Its certainly tempting to play
for each drawing because those
odds and those jackpots just
seem way too attractive, Jones
said.
Thats the type of comment
Ann Marie Bossard, co-owner of
the Anthracite Newsstand on
Public Square, has been hearing
since the lottery announced the
changes late last year.
I think its going to be better
thanit has, Bossardsaidof ticket
sales. People love the big jack-
pot.
Bossard said people are not
scared away by ticket prices that
aregoingfrom$1for abasicticket
or $2 with the Powerplay option
to $2 and $3. Players see that re-
ward as well worth the risk, she
added.
Prizes boosted
Starting with tonights draw-
ing, which airs locally on WNEP
TV at 10:59 p.m., Powerballs
starting jackpot will double from
$20 million to $40 million.
Powerball alsowill increasethe
match-five-white-balls prize from
$200,000 to $1 million, and the
lowest prize for matching only
the red Powerball from $3 to $4.
And the number of red balls will
decline from 39 to 35, greatly in-
creasing the odds of matching it.
Players previously hada1-in-35
overall chance of winning a prize,
which will improve to 1-in-31.8,
beginning Sunday. Odds of win-
ning a jackpot prize will improve
from 1-in-195 million to 1-in-175
million.
Patrick Touey, a professor of
mathematics at Misericordia
University, agrees that the odds
are better. But he said the chanc-
es of winningthejackpot arestill
astronomical.
Its a ridiculously stupid bet
for people to be playing, the
Franklin Township resident said.
I knowits a stupidbet, but I play
it, he added with a laugh.
Like Jones, Touey said he typ-
ically wont play until the jackpot
reaches $100 million. He said the
new rules wont alter what he
thinks of the game or the odds.
He still thinks its a sucker bet
but finds himself spending a few
bucks here and there when the
mood strikes. The new odds
might make some players play
more, but as a mathematician he
said the changes wont affect his
playing habits.
But sticking with the $100 mil-
lion magic plateau before he
plays will still likely mean he will
play more often.
I probably will, he said. He
said twice the amount to play
coupled with a $40 million start-
ing point after a jackpot is hit will
mean the $100 million threshold
will be reached every three or
four games rather than every 10
or 11.
Mega Millions still same
While Powerball ticket prices
are goingup, the other multistate
lottery game, Mega Millions, will
continue offering $1 and $2 tick-
ets.
Bossard said she doesnt think
that will last muchlonger, howev-
er.
I wouldnt be surprised to see
some changes. Once they see
how well (Powerball) is going,
theyll likely do the same, she
said.
Bossard said she doesnt be-
lieve other lottery games, such as
Match 6, Cash 5, the Big 4, Quin-
to and the Daily Number, will be
greatly impacted.
And Roberts noted that those
games offer lower-cost options
for players hopingtohit it big, but
discouragedbythe $2or $3ticket
price.
POWERBALL
Since joining the multijuris-
dictional game in June 2002, the
Pennsylvania Lottery has sold 14
jackpot-winning Powerball tickets
worth nearly $592 million.
Powerball tickets are sold in 41
states, Washington, D.C., and the
Virgin Islands, with drawings held
on Wednesdays and Saturdays.
There are 346 lottery outlets in
Luzerne County. Thats the 7th
most in the state.
In 2011, the lottery sold $6.9
million in Powerball tickets in
Luzerne County. Thats 11th highest
in the state.
LOTTERY LOOSE ENDS
It doesnt make it any less painful for
the people who are affected, he contin-
ued. But the other piece of it is that
Krafts operations are part of a much
larger cluster of financial services and
processing companies that have oper-
ations in Wilkes-Barre and beyond, so
the hope is that people who were affect-
ed will be able to find opportunities at
other businesses located here in the re-
gion.
Newman said Krafts local office is a
financial services and processing center
with roots linking it to the Planters Pea-
nuts company, which was founded and
based in Wilkes-Barre. It moved to the
Hanover Industrial Park more than two
decades ago after Planters was acquired
by Standard Brands. Standard Brands
later merged with Nabisco Brands,
which was acquired by Kraft in 2000.
The company announced in August
that it would split into two independent
companies: a global snacks business and
North American grocery business. Kraft
said the moves are needed to help the
businesses run more effectively.
The bulk of the cuts about 40 per-
cent will be made among sales posi-
tions. Kraft plans to contract sales for its
grocery business to two agencies: Acos-
ta Sales & Marketing for its grocery
store and big box retailer sales, and
Crossmark for convenience store sales.
Kraft also said that it is consolidating
its other offices across the country,
where some management, researchers
and other employees work. It plans to
halve the number of U.S. management
centers to two from four.
About 20 percent of the job elimina-
tions are currently open positions.
Some workers outside the companys
Hanover Township office said multiple
meetings and training sessions were
held Wednesday. Some said they hadnt
heard about layoffs, while others said
they were advised not to talk to the
media.
Kraft has roughly 127,000 employees
worldwide, including 46,500 in North
America.
Kraft did not cut jobs at its manufac-
turing facilities at this time. But the
company said in a statement that with
the pending split, it is still reviewing
this part of its business to consider what
is best for both new companies.
The Associated Press contributed to
this report.

over the wait, because the Army
Corps completed an initial emer-
gency inspection and concluded
temporary repairs made during
the flooding will keep the levee

Brozena said.

ity.
Repairs will be needed
throughout the15-mile floodcon-
trol system, Brozena has said.
One of the most pressing re-
pairs will beat thesectionof levee
that runs behind the Forty Fort
Cemetery, where the earthen lev-
ee meets the portion made of in-
terlockedsheetpile cappedwitha
concrete casing, county officials
have said.
A section of the concrete-
capped portion had to be rein-
forced with sandbags and several
hundredtons of rockanddirt dur-
ing the September flooding. Vis-
ible cracks formed in the wall.
Boils that erupted during
flooding also must be examined,
officials have said. Boils occur
when water finds a seepage path
under the levee, jeopardizing its
stability.
About 1,000 tons of dirt and
rock were dumped on a large boil
behind the county recreational
complex near the Wyoming Val-
ley Airport in Forty Fort.
A boil at the levee base by the
Midway Shopping Center in
Wyoming also was topped with
100 tons of rock and dirt. Stabiliz-
ing material also was put on boils
at the levee base behind The Lau-
rels nursing home in Kingston, at
the end of Fellows Avenue in Ha-
nover Township and at several
Plymouth locations.
Water pressure also blew out
sections of seals on the Market
Street Bridge flood gates on both
the Kingston and Wilkes-Barre
sides in September, officials have
said.
Brozena said Tuesday that offi-
cials have identified a new seal
prototype that will be analyzed
for possible use on the flood
gates.
If something happens, we
have put together a plan to ad-
dress seepage, he said.
The authority voted Tuesday
to complete several levee evalua-
tions that are periodically re-
quiredby the federal government
electrical testing of the 13
pumping stations, surveying of
boundary lines along the levee
and inspection of the roughly100
pipes that penetrate the levee.
Boundary lines are an issue be-
causesomeprivatepropertyown-
ers who live along the levee have
wrongly encroached on flood
control property, Brozena said.
All pipes that run through the
levee must be assessed because
the levee could be compromised
if the pipes fail, he said.
The county pays for mainte-
nance of the levee and pumping
stations with a special fee on
14,470 properties in low-lying ar-
eas that were inundated by the
1972 Agnes Flood and are now
protected by the levee.
Impacted property owners
should receive the 2012 levee fee
bills in April, Brozena said.

layoffs, noting that some may
not be palatable. They in-

Eliminate the homestead
deduction on primary residenc-
es, saving $4.2 million. Roughly
80,000 property owners receive
the break, which amounts to
about $52. Only one other coun-
ty in the state offers the reduc-
tion.
A smaller tax increase, with
the following revenue projected:
1 percent hike, $885,742; 2 per-
cent, $1.77 million; or 3 percent,
$2.66 million.
Requiring all county work-
ers and elected officials to take
12 unpaid days off, which would
save $2.5 million.
Freezing union wages, sav-
ing $1.2 million.
Pribula stressedhe has not yet
discussed the12-day furlough or
pay freeze with union represen-
tatives, though he expected to
meet with them today.
All county managers were ad-
vised to attend Tuesdays work
session, and Pribula and council
members observed the absence
of court branches.
Pribula released a projected
breakdown of the 103 layoffs by
department: council/adminis-
tration, four; election, one; as-
sessors, four; treasurer, one;
prison, 14; probation services,
10; veteran affairs, one; deeds,
two; clerk of courts, two; protho-
notary, two; register of wills,
two; sheriff, five; mapping/GIS,
one; planning/zoning, one;
building and grounds, three; se-
curity, three; 911, five; road and
bridge, three; engineers, one;
public defender, four; courts, 15;
orphan court, one; magistrate,
six; domestic relations, five; ste-
nographers, three; and district
attorney, four.
Prison Deputy Warden James
Larson was one of the few man-
agers who expressed a willing-
ness and ability to absorb the
prescribed layoffs. He said the
14 cuts would have to be surgi-
cally implemented to ensure
that the safety of staff and the
public is not compromised.
County District Attorney Ste-
fanie Salavantis said her staff is
struggling to handle the addi-
tional work of five staffers who
left, and she does not knowhow
she would permanently fur-
lough four.
We are just so overworked,
Salavantis said.
Councilman Edward Bromin-
ski asked her about the staffing
of detectives. The detective con-
tract is up for renewal, and the
past county administration has
criticized the benefits and salary
increases awarded to the unit.
Salavantis said she is con-
stantly asked about the detec-
tives but shes hesitant to go into
detail because she must be very
sensitive dealing with unions.
Chief Public Defender Al Flo-
ra said hell have to close down
the offices juvenile unit if the
county imposes staff cuts, and
he said he needs more lawyers,
which would cost about
$600,000 more.
I cannot cut one person, Flo-
ra said.
He said he is trying to meet
standards and make the office
professional, describing the of-
fice as a political dumping
ground in the past.
He advised council and Prib-
ula to encourage judges to ad-
dress problems with court
scheduling to prevent unneces-
sary delays and continuances,
saying the current system is
dysfunctional.
Councilman Eugene Kelleher
thanked Flora for his presenta-
tion but said council must come
up with the funding.
Flora said the constitutional
guarantee that poor people are
entitled to effective assistance
of counsel does not go away if
council cant afford it.
The work session turned into
a mini-version of the countys
annual budget hearings, with
departments describing the
work completed by their offices
and the negative impact of fur-
ther cuts.
County Veteran Affairs Direc-
tor James Spagnola said the cut
of one employee and funding for
outside veteran organizations
wont be well received by veter-
ans.
Planning/Zoning Director
Adrian Merolli said his office
had15 employees when he start-
ed working there in1973, and to-
day there are five.
The office handles zoning for
an increasing number of munici-
palities in addition to other
work, and the loss of another
worker will hamper the offices
ability to get work completed on
time, he said.
The council has until Feb. 15
to amend the budget.

the third round of the Australian Open
and then showed just how much sup-
port she has at Rod Laver Arena by get-
ting the crowd to sing Happy Birthday
to her younger sister.
Clijsters only needed 47 minutes to
beat Stephanie Foretz Gacon of France
6-0, 6-1on Wednesday, conceding just 10
points in the first set and showing no
signs of a hip problem that forced her to
retire during a semifinal against Daniela
Hantuchova at a warmup tournament
two weeks ago.
She will meet Hantuchova in the next
round here, and has a potential rematch

Clijsters and No. 20 Hantuchova, a
4-6, 6-4, 6-3 winner over Lesia Tsurenko,
have been playing each other for years.
When the injury happened, it hap-
pened against Daniela, Clijsters said.
Shes been playing well this season so
far.
We both go back a long way we
grew up playing under-14s together.
Now almost 30 still battling it out-
.This was Clijsters best run at a major
since the last Australian Open she
lost in the second round at the French
Open and didnt play Wimbledon and
the U.S. Open.
Li is also returning to form, going fur-
ther than she has a Grand Slam tourna-
ment since her breakthrough win at the

Anabel Medina Garrigues of Spain, who
beat Olga Govortsova of Belarus 6-1,
6-0.

ForbothKingsandWilkes, adif-
ferent kind of double-double has
been the focus so far this season.
The way things have worked for
both squads, 10 players have
playedroughly10minutes or more
per game
through the
first half of the
2011-12 cam-
paign.
Depth will
be on display
tonight as the
Monarchs
host the Colo-
nels at 8 to-
night at Scan-
dlon Gymna-
sium.
Those deep rosters are a big rea-
son why the crosstown rivals are
playing for first place in the Free-
dom Conference in their opening
meeting of the season.
Wilkes (11-3, 4-0) is the lone un-
beaten team left in the league
while Kings (8-7, 3-1) is right be-
hind in the standings.
Whenthesquadslast met, it was
the final matchup between prolific
seniors Kevin Conroy and Chris
DeRojas. Thisseason, thedynamic
is a bit different.
Both teams have credited their
depthingettingoff tostrongstarts
in conference play,

OWINGSMILLS, Md. For the
Baltimore Ravens, the term bal-
anced attack usually means an
equal distributionof tacklesamong
everyoneonthedefensenot named
Ray Lewis.
The Ravens strength has long
been its ability to stop the opposi-
tion from scoring. The offense, for
the most part, is usually responsib-
le for protecting the ball and cash-
ing inturnovers.
This unsymmetrical arrange-
ment will almost certainly have to
change Sunday against the high-
powered New England Patriots in
the AFCchampionship game.
Baltimore beat the HoustonTex-
ans 20-13 last Sunday by virtue of
another solidperformance fromits
defense. Or, judging by the num-
bers, inspite of its offense.
The Ravens totaled 227 yards
109 after halftime. They went
three-and-out eight times, aver-
aged 2.8 yards per rush and scored
only three points over the final 46
minutes.
That kindof productionwont be
enough in the Ravens bid to get to
the Super Bowl.
I thinkit wouldbesafetosaywe
are going to have to score points to
win this game, said Ravens rookie
wide receiver Torrey Smith, who
had one catch for 9 yards against
the Texans.
We have one of the top defenses
in the league, and we stand by our
defense and believe in our defense.
They are pretty much the rock of
our team, Smith said. We know
we are going to have to help them
out a lot. We have to try and take
care of the ball. We cant have any
three-and-outs. We have to keep

HAZLETON On the side of
Sal Biasis basketball shoes is a
message.
On my shoe here I have,
Youre only as good as your last
game, the Hazleton Area soph-
omore guard said. Thats what I
was thinking, that I wanted to
come out better.
After a shaky performance a
week ago, Biasi has done just
that the last two games, culmi-
nating in 7-of-9 shooting from 3-
point range as the Cougars rout-
ed Wyoming Valley West 71-43
Tuesday night.
The win put Hazleton Area
(4-1 Div. I, 10-3 overall) in a first-
place tie with Valley West (4-1,
6-7) inDivisionI of the Wyoming
Valley Conference. If both teams
win Friday, they will play the fol-
lowing week for the first-half ti-
tle.
If both lose, then there is also
the possibility of a four-way tie.
We knew we had to win this
game and hold up our end of the
bargain, Hazleton Area coach
Mike Joseph said. Both teams
have to take care of business Fri-
day night and
then well do
whatever we
have to do.
Biasi, who
finished with a
game-high 21
points, helped
the Cougars take care of the task
at hand Tuesday. He scored18 of
Hazleton Areas first-half points
as the Cougars took a 30-22 lead
into the locker room.
When youre down eight
points at half, thats nothing,
Valley West coach George Rei-
miller said. Thats two-and-a-
half baskets and youre back in
the game. And we came out in
the third quarter and scored
first. Then all hell broke loose.
The Spartans were playing
without standout guard James
McCann, who missed the game
with a shoulder injury. Still, they
were within 34-28 at 6:23 when
Hazleton Area took command.
Led by Travis Buckner, the
Cougars went ona16-0run, turn-
ing the game into a battle of the
backups in the fourth quarter.
Buckner had11of his16 points in
the quarter.
Joseph also praised the defen-
sive play of 6-foot-3 Frankie Vito

THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 18, 2012 PAGE 3B
S P O R T S
Its not out of
the ordinary for
two teams to
finish tied for
the division
championship
after the regular
season con-
cludes.
In fact, just five seasons ago,
Berwick and Hazleton Area tied
for the Wyoming Valley Confer-
ence Division I championship
and the programs settled as
co-champions. The scenario has
been like that for years in the
WVC.
This year however, there
could be a very unique situation
atop Division I that may even be
unprecedented.
There are dozens of scenarios
that could play out once the
schedule wraps up in the next 14
days, but one of those situations
with a high probability is that
three teams finish as co-cham-
pions.
As of today, Coughlin sits
atop the division with a 2-0
record. Wyoming Valley West
(3-1) is next and Berwick and
Pittston Area are both 1-1. The
Spartans opened the season
with a two-point loss to Cough-
lin, giving up 12 points via de-
fault. After winning the WVC
Tournament, they won two
straight, knocking off Hazleton
Area and Pittston Area.
Coughlin defeated Berwick on
Tuesday and was scheduled to
face the Patriots last week, but
the dual was postponed until
Jan. 31.
So if two of the teams win out
the rest of the way and Coughlin
loses once, that would mean a
three-way tie.
In the 2006-07 season when
the Bulldogs and Cougars tied,
seeding for the District 2 Duals
tournaments wasnt a factor
because Hazleton Area was
Class 3A and Berwick was in
2A.
If the scenario of a three-way
tie plays out in the next few
weeks, the seeding would get
complicated.
According to District 2 wres-
tling chairman Jay Starnes, the
seeding committee will take
many tiebreakers into consid-
eration if that situation occurs.
Tiebreakers that will be used are
league record, head-to-head
competition, overall dual record,
tournament place finishes, com-
mon opponents and competition
against teams from other classi-
fications.
Its not fun (to figure out)
and its unfortunate if we would
have to do that but we would try
to put them in the best possible
seed, Starnes said. But in the
end, to win they would have to
beat the other teams.
Of course, none of this mat-
ters if one of the teams wins the
division outright.
GOING STREAKING
When Wyoming Valley West
dumped Pittston Area last week,
the Spartans halted the longest
WVC Division I winning streak
at nine. The Patriots previous
divisional dual loss was to Ha-
zleton Area in 2010.
Dallas holds the longest win
streak in Division II, not losing
since a setback to Meyers at the
beginning of 2011. The streak no
team wants to hold is the long-
est winless streaks in the divi-
sion. Division Is Tunkhannock
hasnt won since the 2009-10
season against then-division foe
Lake-Lehman. GAR hasnt
earned a D-II victory since 2008-
09, knocking off Nanticoke.
STATE RECORD SET
Central Dauphin is known
around the state as a power-
house as a team and with great
individuals.
Last week, the team added an
impressive state record to its
resume, running an unbeaten
duals streak to 82 straight. Cen-
tral Dauphin, which is 9-0 this
season, broke the record for
most consecutive dual wins,
having not lost in more than
four years since falling on Jan.
12, 2008, to Cumberland Valley.
That includes four straight PIAA
Class 3A Duals championships.
The longest previous streak in
Pennsylvania belonged to Dal-
lastown, which won 77 straight
from the 1983-84 season through
the 1988-89 campaign.
Three of CDs wins during the
streak have come against D2
teams, beating Crestwood and
Abington Heights in 2011. Then,
last week, for consecutive win
No. 81, the Rams defeated
Abington Heights again. Their
next dual is tonight, when they
face a 10-1 Big Spring squad.

BILL TARUTIS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER
Wyoming Areas Lou Vullo, center, goes in for a layup against
Coughlins Devin Davis, right, as Marcus Cobb moves in on the
play in a WVC boys basketball game in Exeter on Tuesday night.
The Dallas School District has
narrowed its candidates for head
high school football coach to
four candidates over the week-
end.
Superintendent Frank Galicki,
though, wouldnt say who the
four are or whether Ted Jackson,
who has held the job the past 27
years, is among them.
Its a personnel issue and we
havent gotten into divulging any
names at this point, Galicki
said.
Jackson, though, confirmed he
is among the four finalists.
I had a second interview,
Jackson said, but honestly I
havent heard anything. I
thought I did very well, I thought
in both interviews I did very
well. But whether it will matter
is a whole different story.
Eight of the 14 applicants were
interviewed on Thursday and
Saturday. Four were brought in
for second interviews on Mon-
day night. Jackson said he didnt
know who the other three were
for sure, but has heard some
names. He declined to mention
any of them.
Sources have said at least
three of the original 14 appli-
cants, including Jackson, have
head coach experience at the
varsity level. Two others have
been head coaches, but not for a
varsity high school team.
We need to make sure we
take our time on this, Galicki
said. We interviewed until late
(Monday) night. It wasnt until
11 oclock when we were fin-
ished. We didnt reach any con-
clusions and were going to be
getting back together for the
next step.
The school board voted to
open the position at its Dec. 12
meeting by an 8-1 vote, with Dr.
Bruce Goeringer the only mem-
ber voting against the motion.
Galicki had said previously
that there was a possibility a
coach could be hired on an inter-
im basis and then approved by
the school board at the next
meeting. However, it appears
more likely that a coach will be
appointed at the school boards
regular meeting on Feb. 13.
Jackson has a 227-83-3 record
at Dallas. His team finished its
third consecutive 10-win season
as he earned Wyoming Valley
Conference Big School Coach of
the Year honors from his peers.
However, Dallas has spent the
past four years on probation by
the District 2 Athletic Commit-
tee, the local extension of the
PIAA. The first two were for a
bench-clearing fight in the 2008
season opener against William-
sport. The probation was ex-
tended for 2010 and 2011 for an
incident in a 2010 game at Tunk-
hannock where some Dallas
players urinated on tennis courts
at halftime.
Jackson was suspended by the
athletic committee for the entire
2010 season for the Tunkhan-
nock incident, a penalty later re-
duced to four weeks during an
appeal hearing in front of the
PIAA Board of Directors

The Ravens two touchdowns
against Houston came on drives
of 2 and 34 yards following turn-
overs. Running back Ray Rice,
who totaled 2,068 yards and 15
touchdowns during the regular
season, rushed for 60 yards on 21
carries and had four receptions
for 20 yards. He didnot score.
Yes, the Texans own the sec-
ond-ranked defense in the NFL
and played that way. Not only did
they bottle up Rice, but they
sackedJoeFlaccofivetimes. That
cant happen if Baltimore intends
to make its fourthstraight playoff
runendwithanappearanceinthe
Super Bowl.
Youalways want toplayalittle

a great pass rush and they got in-
side of us a little bit, but you have
to take whats there and there
wasnt a lot there. Well get it cor-

Baltimore converted only four
of 16 third-down plays against
Houston. In one telling series in

MIAMI LeBron James
scored 33 points, Chris Bosh
added 30 and the Miami Heat
used a historic third-quarter
turnaround to erase a big def-
icit and beat the San Antonio
Spurs 120-98 on Tuesday night,
snapping a three-game slide.
Miami outscored San Anto-
nio 39-12 in the third quarter
the second-largest differential
for any quarter in Heat history,
and the second-worst differ-
ential for a period in Spurs
history. The Heat trailed 52-35
late in the second quarter.
Mike Miller made his season
debut and shot 6 for 6 on 3-
pointers, finishing with 18
points tying his career-high for
makes from beyond the arc.

Parker had 18.
Bulls 118, Suns 97
CHICAGO Carlos Boozer

Brandon Jennings scored 12
of his 30 points in the fourth
quarter and first-round pick
Tobias Harris came off the
bench for 14 for the Bucks, who
lost for the first time in five
home games.
Milwaukee last opened a
season with five straight home
wins in the 2007-08 season.
Jennings driving layup got
Milwaukee to 100-91 with 2:47

But Bryzgalov signed a $51

Mercedes Yanora stepped up
when she transferred from Mon-
mouth of the Northeast Confer-
ence to St. Josephs of the Atlan-
tic-10 Conference, and it appears
Hawks coach Kevin Quinn may
ask her to take another step up
with the womens track team.
Yanora (Holy Redeemer)
opened the season by finishing
fourth in the 300 meter dash
(41.51) at the Jack Pyrah In-
vitational at Haverford. She
finished seventh in that event at
the Princeton Invitational
against a stronger field. She
lowered her time to 41.49.
Her results in the first two
meets were promising as a short
sprinter but her future may well
lie in the longer dash (400 me-
ters), Quinn said. Mercedes is
not afraid of moving up and that
is always half the battle.
Last weekend, at the Prince-
ton Quad Meet, she ran the 60
and 200 meter dashes, and also
ran a leg on the 1,600 relay.
Mercedes is a terrific young
woman, hard-working, deter-
mined and talented, Quinn
said.
The Hawks will return to the
track Jan. 27-28 in the Penn
State National in State College.
OHARA SWIMMING WELL
Junior Joe OHara (Wyoming
Valley West) is having another
solid season with the Xavier
mens swim team. He competes
in the 50 free, the 100 and 200
backstroke, and with the 400
medley and freestyle relays. The
backstroke events are his main
events. He recently finished fifth
in 200 back (1:59.55) and sev-
enth in the 100 back (55.56) at
the eight-team House of Cham-
pions meet in Indianapolis.
Joe finished with a great
sophomore year and is really
making strides in the back-
stroke, coach Brent MacDonald
said. He really has hit the
ground running this year. It is
the most consistent he has ever
competed and trained.
MacDonald and OHara are
looking toward the Atlantic-10
Championships on Feb. 22-25 in
Buffalo.
Joe certainly has the poten-
tial to get on the podium (top
three) in both the 100 and 200
back and has a good shot to
score (top 16) in the 50 free, the
coach said. That could mean
major points for our team so he
is a big part of us reaching our
goal of winning a league title.
HOVEYS VERSATILE
Senior David Hovey (Wyoming
Valley West) competes in nu-
merous events for the Scranton
mens swimming team and hes
doing an outstanding job in all of
them. Hovey has five firsts, nine
seconds and three thirds, com-
peting mainly in the 100 and 200
breaststroke and the 200 individ-
ual medley.
David is an exceptional ath-
lete, coach Paul DeAngelo said.
Hes proficient in all swim
strokes making him a valuable
asset to the team. His practice
ethic is outstanding. He works
very hard every day and does a
variety of workouts. From dis-
tance to stroke to sprinting,
David can do it all and do it very
well.
The coach believes Hoveys
determination to do well in the
pool has carried over in his
studies. He had a 4.0 grade point
average in the last quarter.
David sets his goal very high
and I see him being very suc-
cessful the rest of the season,
DeAngelo said. Hes the swim-
mer that every coach dreams
about recruiting and is one of
the most coachable athletes I
have ever worked with. He will
be extremely hard to replace
next year.
CARR SWIMMING HURT
Sophomore Natalie Carr
(Wyoming Area) is a key per-
former for the Kutztown wom-
ens swim team. The Golden
Bears handed Millersville its
first loss of the season (120-74)
last weekend and Carr helped
the 400 medley
relay to victory
(4:09.79) and
also finished
third in the 200
IM (2:30.06)
and the 200
breaststroke
(2:42.25). Her
top event is the 100 breaststroke.
Natalie is trying to overcome
a pulled muscle in her rib cage
but she has been swimming well
despite it, coach Tim Flannery
said. She has a lot more poten-
tial to realize. Im hopeful that
her 200 breast begins to come
around like her 100 breast has
but thats still a work in pro-
gress.
Carr made it to the finals in
the 100 breast at the PSAC
Championships last season. Her
1:06.23 time was 3.6 seconds
faster than her best in high
school and that time is third best
all-time at Kutztown.
Eventually she will get a feel
for the 200 breast and have a
breakout moment at any time,
Flannery said. Her improve-
ments have helped other swim-
mers on the team realize that
they can do the same thing and
thats a great benefit to the team
as a whole.
GOLDEN HAS A FUTURE
Michelle Golden is a member of
the Bucknell womens indoor
track team.
Golden (Wyoming Area)
competes in distance races and
kicked off her college career by
finishing seventh in the 3,000 at
the Bucknell Mini Meet last
Saturday in Lewisburg. Her time
was 11:53.37.
Michelle is making the transi-
tion to the higher volume and
intensity of the Division I level,
coach Kevin Donner said. I see
some pretty good improvement
and I look forward to watching
her improve her times this track
and field season.
The Bison host the Guldon
Invitational Saturday in Lewis-
burg.
DOWNS SEEING ACTION
Jenna Downs (Tunkhannock) is
one of the 12 freshmen on the
14-player roster for the Keystone
womens basketball team.
Downs, a 5-foot-11 forward/
center, is averaging more than 10
minutes of action in the games
that shes played, and is averag-
ing 1.9 points and 2.3 rebounds
with two blocked shots.
Jenna is continuing to im-
prove each and every day, coach
Katie Tetzlaw said. She was a
starter at the beginning of the
year but recently has been
plagued by injury.
The coach likes the way
Downs runs the floor in transi-
tion and the way she has adapt-
ed to the college game.
Jenna is now a big spark for
us off the bench in terms of her
rebounding efforts, Tetzlaw
said. We cant say enough about
her attitude and effort and we
believe that her best basketball
is still yet to come.
Raisha Piper (Hanover Area)
and Charlene Hook of Berwick
(Columbia-Montour Vo-Tech)
are also freshmen with the Gi-
ants and have seen limited ac-
tion off the bench as well.
COLARUSSO SWIMMING
AGAIN Jeff Colarusso (Hanov-
er Area) is back in the pool for
the Widener mens swim team.
Hes competing in the 50 and
100 freestyle, along with the 200
free relay for the Pride.
Jeff is one of our seniors and
has had a bit of a tough season,
but things are looking up now
coach Katy Peterson said. He
was in a car accident in October
and broke his collarbone and it
just got back into full motion
for swimming last week. I still
think hell do quite well at our
conference meet (the Middle
Atlantic Conference Champion-
ships, Feb. 10-12 in Wilkes-
Barre). Its been a huge setback
for Jeff personally as you can
imagine.

NEW YORK Tim Lincecum
askedSanFranciscofor $21.5mil-
lion in arbitration, just shy of the
recordfor a player, andthe Giants
offeredhima club-record$17 mil-
lion Tuesday on a dizzying day
when 79 players agreed to con-
tracts.
The two-time NL Cy Young
Awardwinnerwasamong54play-
ers who exchanged figures with
their teams, and his request fell
short of the record$22 millionre-
quested by Roger Clemens from
Houston when he became a free
agent andacceptedtheAstros ar-
bitrationofferbeforethe2005sea-
son.
Interrupting the frenzied focus
onmoney, thereweretwonotable
injury announcements.
Detroit said star slugger Victor
Martinez could miss the entire
season after tearing his left ante-
rior cruciate ligament last week
during offseasonconditioning.
Afteryoufeel sorryforyourself
for adayor so, youmoveon, gen-
eral manager Dave Dombrowski
said. We have a good club. Weve
got a lot of players who will step
up.
Boston outfielder Carl Craw-
ford had surgery on his left wrist
Tuesday and could miss opening
day. He was botheredbythe wrist
last season, andfelt discomfort as
he intensified pre-spring training
workouts.
Carl will be our everyday left
fielder for thebulkof the2012sea-
son, new general manager Ben
Cherington said. Were not rul-
ingout openingday, but werenot
going to put a timeline onit.
At the exchange of arbitration
figures, Lincecum set a mark
among players with less than six
years in the majors, topping De-
rek Jeters $18.5 million submis-
sionin2001. AndtheGiants offer
broke the11-year-oldclubmarkof
$14.25 million offered by the Yan-
kees to Jeter that winter.
Im overall optimistic that
well find common ground with-
out a hearing room, Bobby
Evans, Giants vice president of
baseball operations, said before
seeing Lincecums filing num-
bers. Its a process that begins
long before today in terms of con-
versations about possible deals
that work for both sides. That
processhascontinuedinamutual
fashion. At this point we havent
reacheda conclusion.
Lincecum is eligible for free
agency after the 2013 season.
BostondesignatedhitterDavid
Ortiz, who became a free agent
and accepted Bostons offer of ar-
bitration, had the second-highest
request at $16.5 million and was
offered $12.65 million by the Red
Sox.
Other large amounts involved
ChicagoCubs pitcher Matt Garza
($12.5 million vs. $7.95 million),
Philadelphia outfielder Hunter
Pence ($11.8 million vs. $9 mil-
lion), Texas World Series star
Mike Napoli ($11.5 million vs.
$8.3 million), Los Angeles Dodg-
ers NL Cy Young Award winner
Clayton Kershaw($10 million vs.
$6.5million)andBaltimoreright-
hander Jeremy Guthrie ($10.25
millionvs. $7.25 million).
Garzas $4.55 million gap was
thelargest. All-StarpitchersChris
Perez of Cleveland and Jair Jurr-
jens of Atlanta submitted the
same figures as their teams, a sig-
nal adeal alreadywas all but final-
ized.
Barring agreements, hearings
beforethree-arbitratorpanelswill
be scheduled for the first three
weeks of February. Players won
two of three hearings last winter,
but teams lead286-212since arbi-
tration began in 1974. The 119
players in arbitration averaged a
121 percent increase last year, ac-
cording to a study by The Associ-
atedPress.
Among the 142 players who fil-
edlast Friday, 97alreadyhaveset-
tled, including nine after figures
were exchanged.
There was just one multiyear
agreement among Tuesdays
deals, with Giants third baseman
Pablo Sandoval getting a $17.15
million, three-year contract, a
deal subject to a physical.
Thelargestone-yeardealswent
to Philadelphia pitcher Cole Ha-
mels ($15 million), Dodgers out-
fielder Andre Ethier ($10.95 mil-
lion), Boston outfielder Jacoby
Ellsbury($8.05million), Milwau-
kee reliever Francisco Rodriguez
($8million), SanDiegooutfielder
Carlos Quentin ($7,025,000) and
Tampa Bay outfielder B.J. Upton
($7 million).
Among international free
agents, the Milwaukee Brewers
agreedtoatwo-yearcontractwith
Japanese outfielder Norichika
Aoki, a three-time batting cham-
pioninJapans Central League.
Texas had a deadline of 5 p.m.
on Wednesday to reach an agree-
ment with Japanese pitcher Yu
Darvish.
Also, former All-Star pitcher
Joe Saunders agreed to a $6 mil-
lion, one-year contract with Ari-
zona, which cut him loose last
month rather than allow him to
become eligible for arbitration.

GET YOUR KITCHEN OR BATH REMODELED FOR WINTER
ST. LOUIS After a year off,
Jeff Fisher says he is refreshed
and ready to take on the chal-
lenge in St. Louis.
And this is some challenge:
The Rams finished 2-14 this
year, tied for the NFLs worst,
andhave wonall of 15 games the
last five seasons.
Fisher was formally intro-
duced as the new coach of the
Rams onTuesdayafter signinga
five-year contract. He chose the
Rams over the Dolphins.
My decision was very, very
simple, he said. It was based
on a shared collective vision in
restoring this franchise to a
place of significance. It was that
vision that made my decision
very, very easy.
Owner Stan Kroenke said the
contract will keep Fisher in
place for a good while.
I think the more we talked
the more comfortable we got,
Kroenke said. Jeff was abso-
lutely what we were looking for.
I told him that early on. Hes a
great coach, a great leader.
Added chief operating officer
Kevin Demoff: The time was
now for a bold statement about
the future of this organization.
Fisher reportedly will be paid
$7 million per season but said
his decision hinged on non-eco-
nomic issues such as the fran-
chises plan moving forward,
and the makeup of the coaching
staff and front office.
Fisher said reports the Dol-
phins were his first choice were
not true. And despite the Rams
struggles in recent seasons,
Fisher said he doesnt think
theyre that far off. He said the
Rams have holes but didnt want
to discuss specifics.
Fisher said the possibility of
the Rams relocating was not a
major factor in his decision.
Kroenke can move the franchise
after the 2014 season if the Ed-
wardJones Dome is not deemed
among the top quarter of stadi-
ums in the NFL.
Kroenke was non-committal
on the issue, noting that the
citys Convention and Visitors
Commission is due to make a
proposal for potential upgrades
on Feb. 1. He did make a refer-
ence to his investment in St.
Louis.
Ive been around here a long
time, Kroenke said. Contrary
toalot of reports, I havent taken
a lot of jack out of the market. I
have put a lot of jack into the
market. Well see howthat proc-
ess works out.

Refreshed Fisher begins
task of rebuilding Rams
By R.B. FALLSTROM
AP Sports Writer
INDIANAPOLIS JimCald-
well endured everything
thrown at him during his first
two seasons as the Colts coach
replacing a friend, constant
criticism, even fighting
through a huge rash of injuries.
He couldnt survive the loss
of Peyton Manning.
Caldwell became the Colts
third high-profile dismissal in
an offseason purge, getting
fired Tuesday after producing
the franchises worst record in
two decades.
This is obviously a big tran-
sitional time for us, and I know
were excited moving forward
and its hard when you say
goodbyes to some people,
team owner Jim Irsay said.
But its part of the business.
In Indianapolis, its been any-
thing but business as usual.
The day after they finished 2-
14 and locked up the No. 1 over-
all draft pick, Irsay fired team
vice chairman Bill Polian, the
architect of the Colts success,
and his son, Chris, the hand-
picked general manager.
A nine-day search prompted
Irsay to hire 39-year-old Ryan
Grigson as the replacement
last Wednes-
day.
Since then,
Irsay and his
new GM have
been meeting
almost non-
stop, debating
what tack the
team needed to take next
bringing in new assistants to
fix the problems or making
wholesale changes?
Things were so clouded Mon-
day that Caldwell even met
with former Rams coach Steve
Spagnuolo about possibly be-
coming the Colts new defen-
sive coordinator. By Tuesday
morning, the conventional wis-
dom in Indy and around league
circles was that Caldwell would
return.
A few hours later, everything
changed as suddenly as the
Colts 2011 fortunes. Irsay said
he informed Caldwell of the de-
cision shortly before the team
confirmed the move. The
search for a new coach is to be-
gin immediately though nei-
ther Irsay nor Grigson provid-
ed a timeline for the hiring.
We just came to the conclu-
sion that this is best moving
forward for the franchise,
Grigson said, referring to his
first major decision in charge of
an NFL team.
Mr. Irsay is the steward of
this franchise and Im here to
help him wrap his head around
these types of decisions. Weve
been in football our whole lives
and a lot of it is about in-
stincts.
Its also about results, and
Caldwells were mixed.
After winning his first 14
games, an NFL record for a roo-
kie head coach, and becoming
only the fifth first-year coach to
take his team to the Super
Bowl, Caldwell did a masterful
job guiding the injury-plagued
Colts through a plague of inju-
ries and back to the playoffs in
2010.

Founder Yang leaving Yahoo
Yahoo co-founder Jerry Yang is leav-
ing the struggling company.
The surprise departure, announced
Tuesday, comes just two weeks after
Yahoo Inc. hired former PayPal exec-
utive Scott Thomson as its CEO.
Yang had been on Yahoos board
since the companys 1995 inception. He
also is stepping down from the boards
of Chinas Alibaba Group and Yahoo
Japan. Yahoo is negotiating to sell its
stakes in both companies.
Although a popular figure among
Yahoo employees, Yang had alienated
the companys shareholders by turning
down a $47.5 billion takeover offer
from Microsoft Corp. in 2008.
Autos at record average age
The average age of autos on the road
has reached a record high.
The average age of the 240.5 million
cars and light trucks being driven in
the U.S. rose to 10.8 years last year
from10.4 in the year before, according
to R.L. Polk & Co., an automotive
market research firm.
The average age of passenger cars
rose to 11.1 years from11 years at the
end of June 2011, Polk said.
The average age of pickup trucks and
SUVs rose to 10.4 years from10.1.
Overall, average vehicle age has
increased two years since 2000.
Virgin America in Philly
Virgin America says it will start
flying to and from Philadelphia in
April.
The airline will offer three daily,
non-stop flights between Philadelphia
and Los Angeles on April 4 and two
daily, non-stop flights between Phila-
delphia and San Francisco on April 10.
Virgin America, based near San Fran-
cisco, is known for wooing customers
with high-end services. It offers perks
such as new aircraft, more legroom,
wireless Internet and in-flight video
entertainment systems.
Bulgaria bans fracking
Bowing to public pressure, Bulgarias
government says U.S. oil company
Chevron cannot explore for shale gas in
the country using the extraction tech-
nique known as fracking.
Over the last weeks, thousands of
people gathered at protest rallies
across Bulgaria to protest against shale
gas extraction and the use of fracking,
fearing it could have a hazardous im-
pact on the environment and peoples
health.

NEW YORK Shares of cruise oper-
ators declined on Tuesday, with analysts
questioning whether the capsizing of a
Carnival Corp. vessel would hurt travel
demand just at the start of the important
bookings season.
The Friday night capsizing of the Cos-
ta Concordia off a Tuscan island has left
at least 11 people dead, according to the
latest reports on Tuesday.
Greg Badishkanian of Citi Investment
Research said in a client note that the ac-
cident could be an overhang on shares of
Carnival and rival Royal Caribbean
Cruises Ltd., as it took place during the
cruise industrys busiest booking period
of January through March, commonly
known as wave season.
Badishkanian said cruise booking vol-
umes likely fell 6 percent to 10 percent
over the past few days but stressed the
decline is within normal day-to-day vola-
tility.
Pricing is still firm and there has been
no material increase in cancellations, he
added, which means there is no major
passenger fear of cruising thus far.
But Badishkanian said negative press
surroundingthe capsizingis not helping,
as pictures and videos are more graphic
and widespread than previous cruise in-
cidents.
The media coverage could also be
prolonged as the 100-year anniversary of
theTitanic is inthreemonths, headded.
In two separate reports, Susquehanna
Financial Groups Rachael Rothman low-
eredtheratings of Carnival andRoyal Ca-
ribbean, both based in Miami, to Neu-
tral from Positive. She also reduced
Carnivals price target to $29 from $40
and cut Royal Caribbeans price target to
$26 from $39.
The analyst saidthat the badpress will
probably be a severe headwind to book-
ings in the months ahead, adding that
wave season can make up close to about
35 percent of annual bookings.
Carnivals stock slid $4.68, or 13.7 per-
cent, to $29.60. The stock is trading at
the low end of its 52-week range of
$28.52 to $48.13. Shares of Royal Carib-
bean fell $1.78, or 6.2 percent, to $26.97.

Impact on industry analyzed
LOS ANGELES Most people proba-
bly havent paid much attention to the
huge corporations waging war in Wash-
ington over legislation designed to crack
downononlinetheft of movies, musicand
other content. But theconflict will hit con-
sumers in the face today, when Wikipedia
and several other websites intend to go
dark to protest the proposed changes.
Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales an-
nounced Monday that the hugely popular
online encyclopedia would be unavailable
for 24 hours to protest the Stop Online Pi-
racy Act andrelatedlegislation, whichop-
ponents say could lead to censorship or
the complete shutdownof some websites.
Wikipedia plans to join Reddit, Boing
Boing and hundreds of other sites in the
so-calledSOPAStrike, anattempttopubli-
cizetheir complaints about proposals sup-
ported by the movie and music industries
and other media companies.
In a statement announcing the shut-
down of the English-language version of
the site, Wales said the legislation would
harm the free and open Internet and
bringabout newtools for censorshipof in-
ternational websites inside the United
States.
The Motion Picture Association of
Americaandothers drivingthelegislation
said real progress had been made toward
creating a lawthat would protect intellec-
tual property. The advocates said misin-
formation is inflaming passions on the
Web while doing nothing to solve the
problemof piracy.
Itspart andparcel of acampaigntodis-
tract from the real issue here and to draw
peopleawayfromtryingtoresolvewhat is
a real problem, which is that foreigners
continue to steal the hard work of Amer-
icans, said Michael OLeary, the execu-
tive leading the MPAAs campaign for the
bills.
The protesting websites which re-
portedly also will include Mozilla, Word-
Press and TwitPic plan to act today de-
spite the Obama administrations signal
last weekendthat it wantedchanges inthe
legislation.
Internet operators including giants
GoogleInc. andeBayInc. haveopposed
thelegislationbecause, theysaid, it would
letcompaniesmovetoblockwebsitesand,
in one version, take away their user ad-
dresses if they are deemed to have misap-
propriated any content.

LOS ANGELES Wells Far-
go & Co. on Tuesday reported a
20 percent jump in fourth-quar-
ter profit, with better-than-ex-
pected returns from its giant
mortgage business, while Citi-
group earnings declined 11 per-
cent on weakness in its invest-
ment bank operations.
The results underscored how
the turbulent financial markets
have affected banks with big
Wall Street sales and trading
operations, such as Citi.
JPMorgan Chase & Co., the na-
tions largest bank as measured
by assets and another huge
Wall Street player, kicked off
the bank earnings season last
week by reporting a 23 percent
decline in profit, with invest-
ment banking revenue down 30
percent.
Wells Fargo, by contrast, is
more focused on consumer
businesses. It showed that it is
working through the problems
in its mortgage business, the
nations largest with a 30 per-
cent market share, as nonper-
forming assets fell 20 percent
and its provision for future loan
losses declined.
The San Francisco-based
company, Californias largest
bank and the fourth-largest na-
tionally, said revenue from
community banking, which in-
cludes branches and mortgag-
es, was up 30 percent year over
year.
Analysts at Keefe Bruyette &
Woods said Wells Fargos profit
margin on lending beat their
expectations and those of Wall
Street overall, "and mortgage
banking was much stronger
(than expected)."
Citigroup, the third-largest
U.S. bank as measured by as-
sets, also reported improving
credit quality, but said its cap-
ital-markets business, which in-
cludes sales and trading on
Wall Street, saw its revenue de-
cline by 10 percent.
Wells Fargo earned $4.1 bil-
lion in the fourth quarter, or 73
cents per share, up from $3.4
billion, 61 cents per share, a
year earlier. Revenue fell from
$21.5 billion to $20.6 billion.
Citigroup reported a profit of
$1.16 billion, 38 cents a share,
compared with $1.31 billion, 43
cents a share, in the fourth
quarter of 2010. Revenue fell
from $18.4 billion to $17.2 bil-
lion.

Despite the
return of sun-
shine today, tem-
peratures will
hold nearly
steady since
colder air will be
moving in with
gusty winds.
Those winds will
die down tonight
under clear
skies, allowing
temperatures to
bottom out in
the teens.
Another cold
front approach-
ing Thursday will
bring snow
showers in the
afternoon fol-
lowed by clear-
ing and a good
travel day on
Friday. Computer
guidance is now
hinting that a
fast-moving
stormwill bring
snow here
Saturday, per-
haps just enough
to shovel and
plow. So far this
winter, our snow-
fall is 8 inches
below normal,
while Syracuse,
N.Y., is 35 inches
below normal.

NATIONAL FORECAST: Rain and snow will be likely over the Pacic Northwest, with snow likely from
the Cascades to the northern Rockies. The Seattle area could see some heavy snow. Low pressure will
produce snow showers over the Upper Midwest, while a few snow showers will fall over the eastern
Great lakes and northern New England. The Southeast will have a few showers as well.

WITH THE holidays
behind us, many are
considering healthier
dining options this
time of year. We have
something for every-
body at Fire and Ice
on Toby Creek, in-
cluding many health-conscious items
on our regular menu. This one, turkey
sausage-stuffed portabella mushroom
topped with Fontina and roasted-toma-
to coulis, is sure to please, is simple to
prepare and can be made in advance for
those last-minute dinner parties that
spring up after the holidays.
TURKEY SAUSAGE-
STUFFED
PORTABELLA MUSHROOM
Serves 4
29-ounce can Italian plum tomatoes
1/2 Spanish yellow onion
4 cloves garlic, smashed
2 ounces extra-virgin olive oil
4 ounces dry red wine
1/2 bunch fresh basil, chopped
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
1/4 cup fresh cream (almond milk may be
substituted)
pinch kosher salt
pinch fresh cracked pepper
Place all ingredients except basil, par-
sley and cream in a deep roasting pan.
Roast uncovered for 90 minutes at 350
degrees, stirring every 20 minutes.
Puree in food processor or with im-
mersion blender, slowly adding heavy
cream.
Salt and pepper to taste and add cream
and herbs. A dash of Tabasco may be to
your liking.
PORTABELLA
AND MARINADE
4 portabella caps, cleaned
2 ounces white balsamic vinegar
3 ounces extra-virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
Pinch sea salt
Pinch white pepper
1 clove garlic, smashed
Mix all ingredients except mushroom
caps. Marinate the mushrooms caps for 4
hours, refrigerated. They can be put in a
Ziploc bag with the air removed.
Roast the portabella mushrooms on an
oiled sheet tray for five minutes until
slightly soft.
Hold for later preparation.
HERB-INFUSED OIL
Gently warm
1
2 cup olive oil over very
low heat; add a teaspoon each of chopped
basil, parsley and fresh thyme. Let cool at
room temperature for two hours; strain.
TURKEY STUFFING
3/4 pound Italian-style coarse-ground
store-bought turkey sausage
1/8 cup Asiago cheese
2 shallots, diced fine
1 teaspoon chopped garlic
1 teaspoon paprika
1 roasted red pepper, chopped fine
1/4 cup panko bread crumbs
1 teaspoon chopped parsley
Pinch kosher salt
1/4 pound Fontina cheese
Cook turkey sausage, shallots, and garlic
to internal temperature of 160 degrees.
Add remaining ingredients.
Stuff the mushroom caps with the sau-
sage filling and lay Fontina cheese on top.
Roast the mushroom caps on a sheet tray
for five to seven minutes at 350 degrees.
Serve atop the roasted tomato coulis
and drizzle with the herb-infused olive oil.
The appetizer can be altered for vege-
tarians by replacing the ground turkey
with pre-cooked soy crumbles.
The heavy cream also can be substitut-
ed with almond milk to reduce calories and
fat.

When struggling for an idea
for dinner, I sometimes turn to
what I call grocery-store help-
ers. For this recipe, it was sea-
soned pork tenderloin. Once I
spotted the peppercorn-fla-
vored tenderloin, I knew I was
on the way to a quick dinner.
These pre-seasoned pork
tenderloins sell for about $8for
a 16- to 19-ounce package,
which will easily feed four for
about $2 per generous serving.
One thingI amalways onthe
lookout for with pre-seasoned
or pre-marinated foods is the
often very high sodium con-
tent. This one wasnt toobadat
690 milligrams for a 4-ounce
serving. Some canned soups
have more than that in a 1-cup
serving.
I also look for new ways of
using whatever I seem to have
in abundance. For this recipe, I
used a simple saute of apples
and pecans cooked in the same
pan as the pork and paired
them with a cream sauce. One
skillet makes for easy cleanup.
Slicing the tenderloin into
medallions is what makes this
dish super easy. You can pan
sear, grill or broil these individ-
ual pieces in minutes.
Cooking just about any kind
of pork to a safe temperature
has always been an issue. In
May, the U.S. Department of
Agriculture lowered the safe
cookingtemperature to145 de-
grees for whole cuts of meat,
includingpork, followedbya 3-
minute rest period.
Previously, the recommen-
dation was to cook pork to 160
degrees, which remains the
recommended safe temper-
ature for cooking ground cuts
of pork, beef, veal and lamb.

ature for whole cuts of meat,

Pre-seasoned pork tenderloin is great for for peppercorn pork
with apples and pecans, an easy-to-prepare and economical
family meal that will cost about $2 per person.
In
this grown-up version of macaroni and cheese we take a trip to Italy.
Sort of. Inspired by the Italian sub popular in the Northeast, we
sauteed up salami, garlic peppers, sun-dried tomatoes and onion.
Our cheese sauce is creamy and sharp with a mixture of fontina and picante
provolone. If you cant find picante provolone, just use the sharpest provolone
you can find.
And while we used orecchiette pasta, any
shape will do. If you prefer your macaroni
and cheese baked, spoon the finished recipe
into a casserole dish and top with Parmesan
cheese before placing under the broiler for a
minute or two. Garlic peppers are a sort of
pickled red pepper. If you cant find them,
substitute roasted red peppers and add a
minced clove of garlic and a tablespoon of
red wine vinegar.
ITALIAN MACARONI AND CHEESE

Start to finish: 40 minutes
Servings: 8
1 pound orecchiette pasta
5 ounces dry salami, diced (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup chopped oil packed sun-dried toma-

2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups milk
1 cup shredded fontina cheese
1 cup shredded picante provolone cheese
1/2 cup shredded fresh basil

sauce and slices of grilled
chicken on top, owner Eric
Murphy said.
Murphys uses Cooper
American cheese. The chick-
en is just lightly seasoned
with salt and pepper, leaving
the real flavor to the wing
sauce mixed in with the
cheese.
A typical dish contains mild
sauce, but Murphy said any
wing flavor from the menu
can be added. Murphys has 15
different types of sauce, in-
cluding Honey Barbecue, Red
Garlic Old Bay, Hot Jalapeno
Ranch and Screamer, the hot-
test on the menu.
Buffalo-chicken mac has
been on the menu for about
two years now, but every now
and again another spicy con-
coction will pop up.
The blackened-chicken
mac and cheese with jalape-
nos is another one that people
love, Murphy said.
Though not as zesty as wing
sauce, Old Bay seasoning also
can add a bit of zing to a tradi-
tional dish. Old Bay is an 18-
herb-and-spice seasoning
commonly used on crabs and
other seafood. Haystacks in
Wilkes-Barre Township com-
bines it with mac and cheese
and various types of seafood
to make its Chesapeake Maca-
roni and Cheese.
The six-cheese dish puts
heavy emphasis on the
cheese part of the equation.
We make a very rich cheese
sauce; we use half heavy
cream and half light cream,
owner David Joseph said. We
use American, Cheddar, Moz-
zarella, Parmesan, Fontina
and Gruyre.
The cheese and macaroni
are folded together, then a
cream sherry is added for fla-
voring.
Its a cooking sherry, but
they use the term cream on it
because it has a little smooth-
er flavor. Theres no bite to
it, Joseph said. Its typically
used in cream soups and
sauces.
This and the Old Bay sea-
soning are folded into the
mac-and-cheese mix, and the
entire thing is placed into a
casserole dish and dusted
with Parmesan cheese and
bread crumbs.
The toppings added go hand
in hand with the Old Bay.
We steam up some bay
scallops, jumbo lump crab and
Gulf shrimp, then bake it all
together that way.
The dish was a feature at
the restaurant on Friday, Sat-
urday and Sunday as part of
Creative American Cooking
weekend at Haystacks. Cus-
tomers enthusiasm for it en-
sured the dinner soon will
make a more permanent ap-
pearance on the menu, start-
ing when the Christian season
of Lent comes around.
I made a little over two gal-
lons of the cheese sauce for
the weekend, but we had to
actually take the dish off the
menu by 6:30 Saturday night
because it was so popular, Jo-
seph said.
As we say, we try to run it
up the flagpole and see who
salutes, and people definitely
did.
BUFFALO
Jen and Eric Murphy, owners of Murphys in Swoyersville, will add
other hot mac-and-cheese dishes to their menu throughout the
year, such as blackened chicken macaroni and cheese with jalape-
o peppers.
the USDA said, makes it easier
for consumers to remember the
safe number. (However, note
that the temperature for any
type of chicken or turkey
ground, parts or whole is 165
degrees.)
Before slicing the pork ten-
derloin for this recipe, put it in
the freezer for about 20 minutes
to firm it up and make it easier
to cut into even pieces. Once
sliced, flatten the medallions,
including the tapered end, so
they are all about the same size
and thickness for even cooking.
Pork tenderloin is lean, so
you dont want to overcook it.
Pan searing it and reheating it
in the cream sauce cooks it to a
safe temperature and helps keep
it moist. Be sure to add the
cornstarch to the half-and-half
before adding it to the pan. This
helps stabilize it and thicken
the sauce. Also, whisk it in
slowly and at a low temperature
to prevent curdling.
This meal comes to together
in minutes. Pair it with sliced
carrots sauteed in a little olive
oil and seasoned with dried
thyme and an instant brown-
rice blend with herbs.
PEPPERCORN
PORK MEDALLIONS
Serves: 4
Preparation time: 15 minutes
Total time: 35 minutes
1 peppercorn-flavored pork
tenderloin (16 to 19 ounces)
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil,
divided
1 1/2 cups diced firm tart apple
1/4 cup chopped pecans
1/4 cup white wine, sherry or
chicken broth
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 cup low-fat half-and-half
mixed with 1 teaspoon corn-
starch
Salt and pepper to taste
Cut the pork tenderloin into
as many 3/4- to 1-inch pieces as
you can. Flatten each piece to
about 1/2-inch thick. In a large
skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil
over medium heat. Working in
batches if necessary, add the
pork-tenderloin medallions to
the skillet and brown on each
side, about 2 minutes per side.
Remove from the skillet to a
plate and keep warm. Add the
remaining 1 tablespoon of olive
oil to the skillet. Add the apples
and saute until lightly browned
and slightly softened. Add the
pecans and saute about 1 min-
ute. Add the wine and increase
the heat to high to deglaze the
pan, scraping up any browned
bits on the bottom of the pan.
Reduce the heat and sprinkle
the apples and pecans with the
brown sugar and saute until the
sugar melts. Reduce the heat to
low and slowly whisk in the
half-and-half. Return the pork
medallions to the pan and cook
about 6 minutes or until the
sauce thickens and pork med-
allions are just cooked through.

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My
18-year-old-daughter,
Olympia, is a
beautiful, intelligent
young woman who
graduated from high
school last spring,
was accepted to two
universities and started her first job.
When she lost it recently, she was
devastated. Instead of trying to find
another one, she decided to turn to
prostitution. When I asked her why,
she said she doesnt want to work her
butt off for peanuts.
Other family members and I have
tried to make Olympia see reason,
but shes determined to do this. I
have warned her about the dangers
shell face in that occupation. I
know shes of age now and needs to
make her own choices, but Im afraid
for her and dont want to lose her.
What can I do?
Anxious Mom in Sacramento
Dear Anxious Mom: For an adult,
your daughters decision-making
leaves a lot to be desired. Prostitution
is illegal. Is she aware that her line
of work offers no job security and
the benefits will last only as long as
her looks hold up?
Regardless of the argument that
may ensue, let her know that al-
though you love her, you are worried
sick about her, and disappointed and
furious at her poor judgment because
she has far more to offer than what
shes selling. Warn her shes head-
ing down a path thats hard to come
back from. If she wont change her
mind, then you must accept that your
daughter will have to learn her les-
sons the hard way.
Dear Abby: Are you supposed to
ignore an acquaintance when you no-
tice shes in a doctors waiting room
with you?
This has happened twice recently.
One time, I avoided the acquaintance;
the other, I broke the silence. Both
times it was awkward. I can under-
stand why someone wouldnt want
to be seen at certain doctors offices.
Should I have played dumb?
Striving For Discretion in New York
Dear Striving: No, you should not
have played dumb. In the future,
you should acknowledge your ac-
quaintance, but refrain from asking
questions. Any questions, including,
How are you?
Dear Abby: Im being married in a
few months and theres still so much
to do. The only thing I have decided
so far is the date and location. I have
gotten so stressed that I have actually
passed out.
I keep asking my fiance to help me
with decisions and particulars for the
wedding, but he says, Its your job.
Youre the bride. Then he continues
his lazy ways around the house.
How do I get him to help me plan our
wedding?
Bride in a Panic
Dear Bride: How do I get YOU to
realize you cant change your fiance,
and that this is the man he will be
after your wedding? If you manage to
pull this event together by yourself,
you will still have a husband who is
lazy around the house and refuses to
help you even when you become so
stressed that you pass out.
Your fiance isnt the last man on
planet Earth. If he doesnt have any
good qualities you mentioned
none you can do better than this.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E

To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-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 Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). There
will be progress on the relation-
ship front. You recognize the
value others bring to your life,
and you know how important it
is to keep good people around.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your
creative powers will be highlight-
ed. You could be responsible for
beginning a tradition that will be
of great use to your loved ones
for years to come.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Youll be
an excellent judge of just how
another person would most like
to be acknowledged. You will
show your appreciation in a pur-
poseful manner, either in public,
or in writing.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Youll
know youre surrounded by good
people when you find yourself
thinking of them when they are
not around. Youll look forward
to seeing them again and will
enjoy making plans to do so.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You will feel
a strong connection to a fellow
fire sign (Aries or Sagittarius),
and you will be enriched by what
you give to this person. Offer
your support, share information
and be a good listener.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You
will be instrumental in helping
another person. Youll connect
this person to people and proj-
ects that are out of the ordinary.
Youll build a strong sense of
community.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Youll
actively seek new input from the
world. For a certain time frame,
youll open the floor to anyone
who wants to communicate with
you. Think about what you want
to learn.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). The
more fun you have, the more
creative youll be. Also, the ener-
gy and productivity of a group
will be stimulated by the spirit of
levity you perpetuate with your
lively antics.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
People stay where they are when
they feel a strong sense of con-
nection with the others in that
place. Youll do what you can to
strengthen the bonds between
yourself and the people you love.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You
print your energy on everything
you touch. Possibly you may
print your energy on someone
just by thinking about that per-
son. Someone who has been on
your mind will call you.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Youll
put yourself out there for those
you love. Family affairs may not
be so simple to sort out, but
your willingness to continue
working toward a solution is
what really matters.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If
youre tired, youll also be sensi-
tive and too easily disillusioned.
So get plenty of sleep. Your faith
in others will be restored along
with your energy levels.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Jan. 18).
Youll be a dynamo over the next
10 weeks as you advance proj-
ects that have to do with writing,
speaking and selling. The work
you do and the shrewdness of
your choices will help you make
a considerable and favorable dif-
ference in your financial picture.
Friends connect you with love
and money in June. Gemini and
Pisces adore you. Your lucky
numbers are: 2, 12, 3, 15 and 19.
