Funding to Penn State University, including its branches, such as
the Hazleton campus, would be cut under the governors proposed
budget.
Penn State and 16 other state

struggling with deep cuts to allo-
cations this fiscal year, now are
facing even further reductions
under Gov. Tom Corbetts pro-
posed 2012-13 budget.
The governors spending plan
seeks to cut 20 percent, or $330
million, from the budget for 14
state-owned universities that in-
clude Bloomsburg, East Strouds-
burg and Lock Haven. He also
proposed Tuesday to reduce
funding to Penn State by 28 per-
cent and to Temple University

WASHINGTON U.S. Rep.
Lou Barletta took to the House
floor Wednesday to rail against
the Obama administrations
plan to require that employers
include birth control, steriliza-
tion and
abortion-in-
ducing drugs
in health in-
surance
plans. There
is no man-
date to cover
abortions.
Barletta, R-
Hazleton,
spent five
minutes of
general
speech time
taking um-
brage that re-
ligious insti-
tutions, including Catholic col-
leges and hospitals, are includ-
ed in the mandate. The
requirement stems from the
2010 health care reform law.
The Obama administration
will force Catholics to buy in-
surance coverage that includes
coverage for services that
many of them find morally
wrong. For many Catholics,
this requirement violates their
core beliefs about the sanctity
of the life of the unborn, said
Barletta, a Catholic.

PHILADELPHIA -- A federal
judge has ruled that Pennsylva-
nias 2001 legislative district
maps should be used in this
years elections, a setback for
Republicans who had tried to
get the court to block their use.
The ruling follows one by the
state Supreme Court that re-
jected redrawn districts it said
were gerrymandered in a way
that made no sense other than
to serve the interests of one po-
litical party over another.
In his 24-page opinion, Se-
nior U.S. District Judge R. Bar-
clay Surrick said the election
cycle has already begun and its
too late for the states Legisla-
tive Reapportionment Com-
mission to develop new maps
and guide them through adop-
tion.

WASHINGTON -- House
Speaker John Boehner ac-
cused the Obama adminis-
tration Wednesday of an un-
ambiguous attack on religious
freedom, promising that
Congress will reverse a new
policy requiring religious
schools and hospitals to pro-
vide employees with free birth
control if the president
doesnt.
Boehner demanded that
President Barack Obama
overturn the policy the speak-
er called a violation of First
Amendment rights. The ad-
ministrations mandate has
angered religious groups,
especially Catholics, who say
the requirement would force
them to violate their beliefs
against contraception.

WILKES-BARRE-- Council will
consider anordinance to establish
a taxation fee schedule for a li-
cense for every person, firm, cor-
porationor association operating
a place or establishment that
stores milk, eggs, or other refriger-
ated or frozen foods.
Drew McLaughlin, administra-
tive coordinator for Mayor Tom
Leightons administration, said
there are about 14 businesses in
the city that will require the in-
spections.
Convenience stores like Tur-
key Hill are already coveredby the
normal restaurant inspections
conducted by the city health de-
partment, McLaughlin said.
If food is prepared on site,
McLaughlinsaidthose businesses
are already being inspected. The
newordinance will require inspec-
tions of stores like pharmacies
that sell refrigerated food items
like eggs, juice, milk or frozen
foods.
McLaughlin said the inspec-
tions are mandated by the state
under Act 106. On Nov. 23, 2010,
Act 106 of 2010 was enacted,
which strengthens oversight of
food safety inspections for all re-
tail food facilities, or restaurants
and retail food stores, by amend-
ing the 1945 Public Eating and
Drinking Place Act and the 1994
Food Act.
The newlawtook effect on Jan.
22, 2011.
McLaughlin said notification to
the Health Department regarding
the requirements of the inspec-
tions wasnt provided to the city
until mid 2011, at which time the
newordinance was compiledwith
the target date for enactment of
early this year.
The initial license would cost
$100 and each annual license re-
newal would be $40. A fine of $10
per day for every day of operation
without a license is alsopart of the
ordinance.
McLaughlin said inspections
will include checking the temper-
ature of refrigerationunits, expira-
tion dates of food contained with-
in those units and the cleanliness
of the refrigeration units and sur-
rounding areas. The inspections
will be done annually, but
McLaughlin said the Health De-
partment will respond to com-
plaints or concerns registered by
residents.
Under Act106, thestateDepart-
ment of Agriculture will no longer
license or inspect retail food facil-
ities in a local health jurisdiction.
Thelocal healthauthorityinthis
case the city will be responsible
for licensing and inspection of re-
tail food facilities in its jurisdic-
tion.
Anyone with concerns about re-
frigerationunits incity businesses
can call the Health Department at
208-4268 and request an inspec-
tion.

atrick M. Farrell, 52, of Califor-
nia, Maryland, and formerly of

April 6, 1959, son of Joseph G. and
Elizabeth (Betty) Mayer Farrell of
Wilkes-Barre.
In his youth, he was a member of

Eucharistic minister andmember of
the adult choir at St. Aloysius
Church.

as a supervisor at McDonalds Res-
taurant in Wilkes-Barre.

Marys Seminary and University,

Marys Ryken (SMR) High School

His tireless service to teaching
and his selfless example inspired
both his peers and students alike to
live the Xaverian values of humility,
trust, zeal, compassion and simplic-
ity.
His deep faith and strong reli-
gious foundation has made him the
rock for many needing a listening
ear and advocate for the unprotect-
ed and needy.
His legacy of service, protecting

will live forever in the hearts of
many.

WILKES-BARRE Wilkes-
Barre Area School Board ap-
proved the formation of a girls
lacrosse team at Coughlin High
School on Wednesday, with the
caveat that it must cost the dis-
trict nothing.
The board also rejected two
motions by Christine Katsock
one to let the public speak dur-
ing work sessions, the other to
advertise for a newsolicitor and
paralegal, a position created to
save money spent on an assist-
ant solicitor but never filled.
The board voted unanimous-
ly to approve the lacrosse team,
stalled because the board want-
ed, and ultimately received, as-
surance the operation could be
self-sustaining. Colleen Wood,
who had pushed the plan, said
the team will charge a $50 fee
per player, but expects to raise
enough money to refund those
fees. The board required that
any student unable to pay the
fee still be able to play.
Katsock made her motion to
advertise for a new solicitor af-
ter rattling off statistics for the
districts legal expenses. She
noted the district budgeted
$425,000 for legal services this
year, approximately two times
the budgeted amount of the
largest district in this county,
Hazleton Area, and greater than
that of Hanover Area and
Wyoming Valley West com-
bined.
She also cited a recent settle-
ment with architectural firm
Highland Associates involving
drawings for a feasibility study.
The district sued for $88,000,
contending the work done was
not the work requested.
The case was settled for
$47,500 last month, but Kat-
sock said a review of the bills
from Solicitor David Lupas and
Assistant Solicitor Ray Wendo-
lowski showed legal fees were
higher than that. The district
is actually over $400 in the red,
Katsock said.
The board rejected the mo-
tion 8-1, with Katsock the lone
yes vote, though several mem-
bers said they felt it would make
more sense to delay such a
move until next years budget
was closer to completion.
The vote against allowing
public comment at work ses-
sions usually held Monday fol-
lowed by regular meetings
Wednesday -- was 5-4, with Kat-
sock, President Maryann Toole,
Lynn Evans and Robert Corco-
ran voting yes. Some board

Crash kills dad, daughter
S
tate police at Tunkhannock said a
father and his 3-year-old daughter
were killed in a two-vehicle crash on
West Nicholson Road, Wyoming
County, on Wednesday morning.
State police said Jeffrey Pifcho, 25,
of Lawton, driving a 1994 Chevrolet
Silverado pickup, was traveling east
on West Nicholson Road and crossed
into oncoming traffic, colliding head-
on with a 2000 Dodge 2500 pickup
driven by Loren Lee Welch, 48, of
Springville.
The crash happened just after 9
a.m.
Pifcho and his daughter were killed
in the crash. They were pronounced
dead at the scene, state police said.
State police said the girl was not in
a child safety seat.
Welch was transported to Geisinger
Community Medical Center in Scran-
ton with moderate injuries.
The investigation is continuing.
WASHINGTON
Casey urges buyout OK
U.S. Sen. Bob Casey, D-Scranton,
on Wednesday urged the federal and
Pennsylvania emergency manage-
ment agencies to
quickly approve
applications sub-
mitted by Wyoming
County to acquire
properties damaged
or destroyed in the
flooding from Irene
and Lee.
Wyoming County
has applied for the acquisitions of 92
homes that were damaged or de-
stroyed by Irene and Lee or have been
repeatedly damaged by flooding.
Buyouts help homeowners relocate to
safer areas and minimize the poten-
tial impact of future disasters on
vulnerable areas.
Wyoming County was one of the
hardest-hit flood areas of Pennsylva-
nia, with more than 3,200 homes and
businesses damaged.
HARRISBURG
Free tax prep available
State Rep. Karen Boback, R-Har-

The Hotel Sterlings nonprofit owner
CityVest has not yet signed an agree-
ment with Luzerne County needed to al-
lowdemolitionof the downtownWilkes-
Barre landmark, raising questions about
the projects status.
Luzerne County Interim Manager
TomPribula saidhe will discuss the mat-
ter with county coun-
cil members on Tues-
day.
CityVest representa-
tives havent signed
the agreement in large
part because it holds
CityVest and its volun-
teer board liable for
any damage or injury
claims that arent cov-
ered by CityVests in-
surance, county offi-
cials said.
The agreement is
designed to remove
the county from liabil-
ity during demolition
and ensure the county
acquires the more than
3-acre lot of prime land after the struc-
ture at the corner of River and Market
streets is demolished.
CityVest owes the county $6 million
loaned to preserve and market the struc-
ture, and the county has set aside anoth-
er $1millionincommunitydevelopment
funding for demolition. The nonprofit is
out of money andaskedthe county tode-
cide the buildings fate last year.
Assistant county solicitor Stephen
Menn said the county and CityVest have
gone back and forth with language.
County officials wont release the docu-
ment until its finalized.
Menn said he is proposing language
clarification that will be more palata-
ble to CityVest without reducing the
countys protection. CityVest represen-
tatives could not be reached for com-
ment Wednesday.
Pribula said he wont support agree-
ment alterations that put the county at
risk.
Weve already wasted enough time
and money on that project, and were go-
ing to protect Luzerne Countys interest
above and beyond anybody elses inter-
est, he said. Im not political in any as-
pect of the word, and I wont bend for
any political reasons, he said.
If an agreement isnt reached, Wilkes-
Barre eventually may be forced to de-
molish the city-condemned structure at
its expense. The city would then have to
put a lien on the property in an attempt
to recoup the money, though the county
wouldalsobe inline withits ownlienfor
$6 million.
Wilkes-Barre also must sign off on the
county agreement because the city has
pledged about $260,000 in local share of
gaming taxes toward demolition.
Assistant cityattorneyBill Vinskosaid
the citys delay involves a very minor
language adjustment to ensure the
citys code enforcement office keeps its
mandated power.
Were not going to hold this up. We
want this building down, Vinsko said.

UNIONTWP. Grace Weed and Ma-
lik McDonald practiced in a corner of
Northwest Area High School Auditori-
um, he on the cello and she on the vio-
lin. They not only tuned out the din of
more than100students gatheredfor the
annual District 9 High School Orches-
tra Festival, they also tuned out each
other. Both were playing Pomp and
Circumstance, yet neither hadnoticed.
Ive been to three of these, Weed
said of such cacophonic events, though
of course there is only one District 9 fes-
tival each year. Both were preparing for
the first phase of the three-day festival
auditions for regional concert.
Everyone must try out, Host Director
Scott Quinnsaid, andthe event organiz-
er the Pennsylvania Music Educators
Association apparently prefers to get
those auditions out of the way quickly
so students can focus on rehearsal for a
Friday night concert.
Weed said she started playing when
she was 8, after her father obliged when
she requested a violin. Asked why he
picked the cello years ago, McDonald
just shrugged.
Quinn said this years event drewstu-
dents from 23 high schools. Typically,
the sending school districts pay the stu-
dents fees, and the only cost to the host
district is the use of the facilities. While
students are sometimes housed in ho-
tels, Quinn said Northwest was able to
line up enough volunteer host families
to handle the visitors.
Most students plucked violins or
warmed up on reeds and woodwinds
while sitting or standing among the
rows of seats. But that wasnt an option
for Wyoming Valley West senior Derick
Haigh, who played Finlandia on his
bass while standing in the aisle of the
auditorium.
Haigh, of Plymouth, said hes been
playing since sixth grade. Why the
bass? I just like it, he said, though he
also admitted he prefers ragtime and
jazz.
The musicians held their first re-
hearsal as a single orchestra Wednesday
night, and will spend most of today in
rehearsal, though there will be a break
for some non-instrument socializing in
the evening unless bowling counts as
part of the percussion section.
They get two last rehearsals Friday
before the 7 p.m. concert, open to the
public.
During a short break, Weed looked
about and conceded Its a little over-
whelming, but went right back to prac-
ticing as if alone.
Nearby, Quinn scanned the crowd
and summed it up.
This is controlled chaos.

sities, by 30 percent.
Corbett did not propose cut-
ting the appropriation to another
state-related institution, Lincoln
University, this coming year. The
latest reductions would be on top
of 19-percent cuts last year. Those
decreases contributed to affected
schools increasing tuition be-
tween 5 and 10 percent.
Penn State hiked tuition 3.5
percent, or about $900, for out-of-
state freshmen and sophomores
attending the main campus, to
about $27,200 a year. Tuition at
satellite campuses, including
Penn State Hazleton, Wilkes-
Barre and Worthington Scran-
ton, went up 2.9 percent for both
in-state andout-of-state students.
Its certainly disheartening to
hear that such a massive cut has
been proposed for our institu-
tions, and obviously, any cut will
have an impact on the university
and our campus; however, at this
point it is tooearlytospeculateas
to what those impacts will be,
said Amy Gruzesky, a Penn State
Worthington Scranton spokes-
woman.
Both Gary Lawler, chancellor
at Penn State Hazleton, and
Charlie Davis, the chancellor of
Penn State Wilkes-Barre, said the
proposed budget is just a starting
point.
At this point we cant specu-
late on what the final plan will
look like or what our response to
that will be, Davis said.
The governors higher-educa-
tion appropriations, under the
proposal, would include:
$163.5 million for Penn
State, representing a 28 percent
cut.
$95.2 million for the Univer-
sity of Pittsburgh, a 30 percent
cut.
$97.9 million for Temple
University, a 30 percent cut.
$330.2 million for the 14
state-owned universities in the
State System of Higher Educa-
tion, a 20 percent cut.
$221.9 million for communi-
ty colleges, including Luzerne
County Community College, a 4
percent decrease.
$395.7millioninfinancial as-
sistance for college students
through the Pennsylvania Higher
EducationAssistance Agency, a 6
percent decrease.
The governor also announced
the creationof a panel toexamine
higher-education funding.
We need to open the discus-
sion about how best to finance
higher educationinthis state. We
need to have a thorough, public
and candid conversation about
how best to deal with the spiral-
ing costs and our own obliga-
tions.
He said the panel will study
our systemand make recommen-
dations on how our universities
can best serve the students and
citizens of this new century.
The task force will be headed
by Rob Wonderling, a former
state senator and current head of
the Greater Philadelphia Cham-
ber of Commerce. Corbett said
the group must report back to
him by Nov. 15.

KINGSTON Wyoming Valley
West School District Finance
Manager Joseph Rodriguez ex-
plained a recent public notice an-
nouncing the district intends to
apply for an exemption from the
state that would allow it to raise
property taxes by a greater per-
centage than the law allows.
Rodriguez said after the school
boards monthly meeting Wednes-
day that the board applied for an
exception to cover $480,000 in re-
tirement funds.
Its a precautionary measure. It
doesnt mean that we are raising
taxes, he said. Were in the early
stages of the budget process and
were goingtotrytoreduce expen-
ditures and seek more resources
for revenue.
He said the school district can
raise taxes up to 2.4 percent of the
current rate. The exemption
would allow taxes to be raised up
to 4.15 percent of the current rate
of 13.5 mills. A mill is $1 in tax on
every $1,000 of assessed property
value.
He said the highest increase
would work out to be about a 0.5
mill increase in taxes.
This is not saying were going
to go that high, Rodriguez said.
The board last year unanimous-
lyapproveda$59.6millionbudget
that raised property taxes about 6
percent and used a wide range of
spending cuts to save more than
$2 million. Property taxes in-
creased to 13.5 mills from 12.7
mills.
In other business:
Thedistrict is seekingbids for
medical and dental insurance, pa-
per andgeneral supplies andphys-
ical education. The bids will be

Danube shipping frozen
A
t least four Balkan nations suspend-
ed shipping on the Danube River
because of severe frost and the vast
amount of ice blocking the heavily
traveled waterway.
Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania and Ser-
bia made the decision because up to 90
percent of the rivers surface is covered
with floating ice, authorities said
Wednesday. It is Europes main com-
mercial waterway.
Europe has been battling a deep
freeze that has killed hundreds, snow
that has trapped thousands in Balkan
mountain villages and prompted wor-
ries of flooding as heavy snow melts. In

New way to get caffeine
Move over, coffee and Red Bull. A
Harvard professor thinks the next big
thing will be people inhaling their
caffeine from a lipstick-sized tube.
Critics say the novel product is not
without its risks.
The product, called AeroShot, went
on the market late last month in Mas-
sachusetts and New York. A single unit
costs $2.99 at convenience, mom-and-
pop, liquor and online stores.
Biomedical engineering professor
David Edwards said AeroShot is safe
and does not contain common addi-
tives, like taurine, used to amplify the
caffeine effect in common energy
drinks. Each grey-and-yellow plastic
canister contains 100 milligrams of
caffeine powder, about the amount in a
large cup of coffee, plus B vitamins.
But Democratic U.S. Sen. Charles
Schumer of New York wants the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration to re-
view AeroShot, saying he fears it will
be used as a club drug so that young
people can drink until they drop.

the opposition to calm vio-
lence. Activists reported at
least 50 killed in the regimes
siege of the restive city of
Homs.
Russia, a close ally of Syria,
and the West are pushing down
starkly different paths in trying
to deal with Syrias nearly 11
months of bloodshed. After
blockinga WesternandArabat-
tempt tobringU.N. pressure on
President Bashar Assad to step
down, Russia has launched a
bid to show it can resolve the
turmoil.
Moscow is calling for a com-
bination of reforms by the re-
gime andnegotiations, without
calling for Assad to go. Its pro-
visions are so far finding no
traction with the opposition,
whichdismisses promises of re-
formas empty gestures, refuses
any negotiations while vio-
lence continues and says As-
sads removal is the only option
in the crisis.
Russian Prime Minister Vla-
dimir Putin said outside forces
should let Syrians settle their
conflict independently.
We should not act like a bull
in a china shop, Putin said, ac-
cording to the ITAR-TASS
news agency. We have to give
people a chance to make deci-
sions about their destiny inde-
pendently, to help, to give ad-
vice, to put limits somewhere
so that the opposing sides
would not have a chance to use
arms, but not to interfere.
Russian Foreign Minister
Sergey Lavrov, who met with
Assad Tuesday in Damascus,
told reporters in Moscow that
the Syrian president delegated
to his vice president, Farouk al-
Sharaa, responsibility for hold-
ing a dialogue with the opposi-
tion.
Lavrov blamed both Assads
regime and opposition forces
for instigating the violence,
which the U.N. says has killed
well over 5,400 people.

Spring inspired uprising, turn-

WASHINGTON Resurgent
Rick Santorum said his sweep of

shoestring campaign $250,000
overnight, cash he needs to take
his upstart bid for the Republican
presidential nomination to Mitt

Tuesday in Minnesota, Missouri

marked his best
performance

rollicking con-
test for the Re-

tion and

nized former Massachusetts gov-
ernor shrugged off his poor show-
ing, but his losses werestingingre-
minders of a stubborn weakness:
Romneys inabilitytoappeal tothe
conservatives at the base of the
party.
It was far from clear, though,
that Santorum would be able to
turn his momentum into the mil-
lions of dollars he would need to
overtakeRomney. But inthehours
after his victory, Santorum said
hes finally being heard and sup-
ported by conservatives who want
a clear contrast to President Ba-
rack Obama.
I think last night we raised a

LOS ANGELES Investigators said
Wednesday they have found 200 addi-
tional photos theybelieveweretakenbya
former teacher who is accused of com-
mitting lewd acts on 23 children over a
five-year period.
The photos were found late last week
at the same pharmacy where a photo lab
technician had first noticed odd pictures
that led to Mark Berndts arrest, said
sheriffs Lt. Carlos Marquez. The recent
discovery brings the total number of pho-
tos to roughly 600.
Many of the photos involve children al-
ready identified by authorities, but there
may be other potential victims, Marquez
said.
Berndt has been charged with lewd
acts on children between 2005 and 2010.
Some of the photos showchildren ages 6
to10 blindfolded, their mouths tapedand
beingfedamilky, whiteliquidauthorities
believe was semen. The new batch of
photos depicts similar poses, Marquez
said.
Berndt taught at Miramonte Elemen-
tary School, where all 120 staff members
were replaced this week amid outrage
from parents.
The furor led two parents to come for-
ward Thursday to complain that teacher
Martin Springer, who had worked at the
school for 26 years, fondled two second-
grade girls in his classroom.
Springer, 49, pleaded not guilty Tues-
day after he was charged with commit-
ting lewd acts upon one girl in 2009. Bail
was set at $300,000.
Police have set forth no connection be-
tween the cases, but parents confidence
has been badly shaken.
Meanwhile, the mother of an 11-year-
oldboy toldthe Los Angeles Times that a
teachers aide, a woman the mother said
appeared to be in her 50s, sent at least
three letters to her son in 2009, including
one that said: When you get close to me,
even if you give me the chills, I like that.
Dont tell nobody about this!

SEATTLE A 911 record-
ing reveals a social workers
urgent attempts over more
than six minutes to get a dis-
patcher to send deputies after
Josh Powell locked himself
and his two sons in his home.
The social worker tried re-
peatedly to relay the gravity of
what was going on. Josh Po-
well was scheduled for a su-
pervised visit with his sons
Sunday, but he slammed the
door in her face then used a
hatchet on his sons and
torched the building in a gas-
fueled inferno. All three were
killed.
In the first minutes of the
911 call, the woman laid out
the situation.
Something really weird
has happened. The kids went
into the house and the parent
the biological parent
whose name is Josh Powell
will not let me in the door.
What should I do? ... I could
hear one of the kids crying,
and he still wouldnt let me
in.
The social worker told the
dispatcher she was one step
in back of (the boys). He shut
the door right in my face.
At one point the dispatcher
asked the social worker what
address she was at. The social
worker didnt know and need-
ed to look for it. It took her
about 1
1
2 minutes to find it in
her car. At one point she asks,
You cant find me by GPS?
While shes still looking for
the address she says, But I
think I need help right away.
After six minutes on the
call, a dispatcher says: Well
have somebody look for you
there.
OK, how long will it be?
the woman asks.
I dont know, maam. We
have to respond to emergency
life-threatening situations
first. The first available depu-
ty ...
The woman responded:
This could be life-threaten-
ing ... Im afraid for their
lives.
Pierce County Sheriffs De-
tective Ed Troyer said
Wednesday that his depart-
ment is still waiting to receive
a copy of the call-and-dis-
patch log fromthe 911 center
to see exactly how long it
took for deputies to respond.
Thecenter didnot immediate-
ly respond to a public records
request from The Associated
Press for the document.
However, Troyer said the
sheriffs department is dis-
pleased with the dispatchers
etiquette because he left the
social worker with the impres-
sion that no help was immedi-
ately on the way.
After the home erupted in
flames, the woman screamed
in a separate call: He explod-
ed the house!

CHIEF
FORTY FORT -- Maybe Tahbo
should have been escorted in on
foot; an African black-footed pen-
guin waddling into a class of pre-
kindergarten students certainly
would have been cute. But
Wyoming Seminary student Bil-
ly Bartolomei provided plenty of
that, waddling toward the table
Tahbo stood on once released
from his pet taxi.
Clearly impressed by the vis-
iting little dignitary, Bartolomei
tugged the pant leg of Amanda
Anastasio, but the Lehigh Valley
Zoo intern didnt seem to notice
as she spoke to a rapt crowd of 3-
and 4-year-olds. Holding up her
hand and making a small circle
with finger and thumb she asked
howmany feathers do you think
are in this little circle?
10 20 ... 100 the tykes
shouted, eventually hitting on 70
the right number.
I was going to say 70! Bran-
don Scotto DAbusco insisted.
Anastasio explained the black
backs of penguins make them
hard to see in the water from
above while the white stomachs
make them blend in with the sky
when viewed from below.
No predators will see her
there, DAbusco said, suddenly
sprawling onto the floor and
waving a hand under the table
supporting Tahbo, or under this
table!
The inquisitive youngsters
couldnt touch Tahbo because
she likes to nip at fingers, but
that didnt seem to detract from
the glee of seeing a creature na-
tive to another continent and
hemisphere. The students study
penguins (among other animals)
each year, and teacher Natalie
Granger had trained them well.
Do they do the marriage
dance? one girl asked, learning
that African penguins mate by
call and by shaking heads at
each other when they are really
interested.
Because they live in a warmer
climate than the more famous
emperor penguins of Antarctica,
they make their nests out of
rock and something thats kind
of gross, Anastasio said, asking
if the students knew what that
was.
Guano! one shouted without
hesitation.
Tahbo eventually went back
into the pet taxi so the children
could try some simple examples
of environmentalism, including
dipping a feather into oil, run-
ning it through a bowl of deter-
gent and water, and rinsing it in
another bowl, to show how hard
it is to clean a bird stained by a
spill.
Granger declared the event a
success. Asked if she will do it
again, she grinned broadly.
Absolutely!
So count on it: An annual pre-
kindergarten white tie and tail
gala.
Tahbo, an African black-footed penguin from the Lehigh Valley Zoo,
visited a class of pre-kindergarten students at Wyoming Seminary
CLARK VAN ORDEN/THE TIMES LEADER
The pre-kindergarten class at Wyoming Seminary Lower School in Forty Fort got a visit on Wednesday morning from Tahbo, a 4-year-
old African, black footed penguin from the Lehigh Valley Zoo. Teacher Natalie Granger arranged the birds visit.

JENKINS TWP. WVIA, the
regions public broadcasting
station, received a gift recently
that may be the first of its kind.
WVIA is operating and ma-
naging a jazz record company
Chiaroscuro Records that was
donated to the station by long-
time WVIA trustee, regional
businessman and philanthro-
pist Andrew Sordoni, for the
purposes of preservation, edu-
cation and entertainment.
To the best of our knowl-
edge nobodyinour industryhas
ever received a gift like this,
said Bill Kelly, president and
chief executive officer of WVIA
Public Media. We are very
grateful toAndySordoni a life-
long advocate of public broad-
casting in Northeastern Penn-
sylvania.
Kelly said some of the worlds
most venerated mainstream
jazz artists have recorded for
Chiaroscuro Records.
This gift was given for the
dual purposes of preserving the
music and the sharing of the
music with the public, Sordoni
said. The digital format allows
us to save the music forever and
the modernelectronics allowus
to share it worldwide at no cost
to the listener.
Sordoni said the stewardship
of Chiaroscuro by WVIA is un-
precedented. He said he hopes
it will inspire other similar gifts.
Sordoni explains how and
why he became part of Chiaros-
curo in a special WVIA-TV
State of Pennsylvania inter-
view. That is scheduled to air
tonight at 7 p.m., Friday at 7
p.m. and on Sunday at 1 p.m.
Kelly said Chiaroscuro Re-
cords will be broadcast interna-
tionally via a new digital radio
frequency devoted solely to the
Chiaroscuro library.
Researchof other worldwide
webmusic services ledWVIAto
realize how discriminating lis-
teners around the world might
be attracted to the format and
purchase or download an al-
bum, Kelly said. Our ultimate
goal is to sell CDs.

HARRISBURG A Democrat-
ic state lawmaker who has been
convicted on corruption charges
said Wednesday he will followtra-
dition and step down from the
House of Representatives whenhe
is sentenced, but that he hopes to
delay the proceedingsohe canrun
for re-election.
The state constitution requires
that, upon sentencing, I would re-
linquish my seat and I certainly
will behave in this honored cham-
ber, as I always have, Rep. Bill De-
Weese said in a telephone inter-
view.
ADauphin County jury convict-
ed DeWeese on Monday of five of
thesixcounts against himthree
counts of theft and one count each
of conspiracy and conflict of inter-
est. The charges stemmedfromal-
legations that he used legislative
employees and other public re-
sources for political campaign
work.
The longtime House Democrat-
ic leader is currently scheduled to
be sentenced on April 24 pri-
mary election
day. He said he
plans to file his
nomination pet-
itions by Tues-
days deadline
and to seek a
postponement
of the proceed-
ing until after the Nov. 6 general
election so he can remain in the
Legislature and campaign for re-
election.
If I were to exit the stage in
April, having been re-nominated
and benefiting from my name be-
ing on the November ballot, I
would certainly hope that the ap-
propriate (courts) would give
prompt and fair hearing to our ap-
peals and that, if and when vindi-
cated, I could return to the hall of
the House, he said.
DeWeese, 61, from Greene
County, said it was premature to
speculateabout whether hewill be
forced to step down in April but
that he would do so without any
personal passions or pyrotechnics
on the floor of the House of Repre-
sentatives .
DeWeese eyes re-election,
to resign when sentenced

HARRISBURG Gov. Tom
Corbett is expected to sign a
sweeping bill that would force
Pennsylvanias booming natural
gas industry to help pay for a
wide range of state andlocal gov-
ernment programs, toughen
safety standards and limit the
ability of local officials to keep
drilling out of their towns.
The state House voted 101-90
on Wednesday after two days of
debateona bill that has beensev-
eral years in the making. The
Senate passed it Tuesday. Cor-
bett negotiated the bill with Re-
publican legislative leaders.
Democrats werent included
in negotiations and were strong-
ly critical of the bill.
Republicans said the bill is a
balance between a range of com-
peting interests, and rejecting it
would simply force Pennsylva-
nians to wait longer to update
decades-old, out-of-date laws.
Voting on the bill fell along
party lines, with 10 Republicans
voting against the bill and only
two Democrats voting for it.
Of House legislators repre-
senting Luzerne County, only
Republicans Karen Boback, Har-
veys Lake, and Tarah Toohil,
Butler Township, voted in favor.
Boback said the bill breaks
the gridlock and moves us to-
ward a resolution.
While not perfect, it is a start
, she said. Rep. Phyllis Mun-
dy, D-Kingston, by contrast,
calledthe bill a missedopportu-
nity to do this right.
Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski, D-
Wilkes-Barre, criticized the fee
rate as inadequately low.
The bill is a gift to the indus-
try which will make billions of
dollars in profits from our natu-
ral resources and the people of
Pennsylvania will get pennies in
return, Pashinski said.
The fee could be paid on all
wells, and the total amount
would rise in ensuing years as
more wells are drilled, tallying
$180 million for 2011 and more
than $1 billion over the first five
years, according to Republicans.

Hughes contributed to this sto-
ry.

POLICE BLOTTER
SHICKSHINNY In its strug-
gle to recover from the Septem-
bers flooding, the boroughTues-
day night received some good
news from the Luzerne County
Transportation Authority.
Robb Henderson, operations
manager for the LCTA, an-
nounced that bus runs between
the Wyoming Valley and Shick-
shinny will be implemented this
year.
Henderson told council a
study will be undertaken to ex-
tend the LCTA route through
Glen Lyon to include Mocana-
qua and Shickshinny, although
there would only be a passenger
pickup in Shickshinny. Hender-
son said the run will traverse
Route11to Kingston and Wilkes-
Barre, withprojecteddrop-offs at
the Wyoming Valley Mall, super-
markets and, possibly, the casi-
no.
Henderson said what can be
considered is a 10 a.m. pickup
and a return trip to Shickshinny
at 4:15 p.m. He said that after the
study implementation can be
within a month.
Besides the LCTA, council
said it has had discussions with
officials of the Berwick Hospital
to establish as a medical outpa-
tient clinic in the municipal
building, which is currently be-
ing renovated after the flood. Ro-
salie Whitebread, council chair-
woman, said the hospital has ex-
pressed a strong interest in
renting space on the first floor
once all the repairs have been ac-
complished.
In that regard, Councilman
Michael Steeber reported resto-
ration work has progressed to
the point a newfurnace has been
installed and placed into oper-
ation, fire alarms have been
made operable, emergency light-
ing has been installed and paint-
ing on the second floor is almost
finished. Steeber said a major
goal of this workis toget District
Judge John Hasay re-established
in the building as soon as possi-
ble.
In contrast, there was also
some discord at the meeting. Af-
ter council went into executive
session for what attorney Jeff
Malak described as a personnel
matter, there was an expression
for the need for unity among the
council members. At one point,
Whitebread slammed her fist on
the table and threatened to re-
sign immediately if we cant
work together.
Councilmen Kevin Morris and
Steeber also expressed a need to
work together. Morris, howev-
er, prefaced his remarks with the
comment: While we have made
great progress ... Im disappoint-
edinthe changes we made inthe
sewer authority, although he
didnt say that was the reason for
the dispute
Morris, who serves on the fire
and safety committee, an-
nounced the fire department has
taken delivery on a 2012 fire
truck from Kovatch Mechanical
of Nesquehoning. He said the
cost of the truck, $163,000, was
covered entirely by grant funds.
Council also rejecteda propos-
al from Jim Brozena, Luzerne
County Flood Protection execu-
tive director, that he serve as
manager of theboroughs Hazard
Mitigation Grant Program.
Council decidedinsteadtokeep
it local, retaining Melissa Web-
er, secretary-treasurer.

Shes back in Pittston
and proud to be there
I
grew up in Pittston, where my grandpar-
ents opened a family restaurant in the
early 1940s. They raised seven kids from
their downtown location a marvelous
piece of architecture, three-stories tall,
with a mahogany staircase, etched crown
molding and ceilings 12 feet high.
As a kid, it didnt matter to me that my
grandparents didnt have a backyard. Their
house faced Main Street, which in my
eyes was no different than Manhattans
famous 34th Street. From the big front
windows, I could watch and listen for
hours as the traffic cars, trucks, buses
and all kinds of people came through the
big city to shop, work and play.
But as the years unfolded, the traffic
slowed, local merchants struggled, facto-
ries closed their doors, and Americas
downtowns began to fade. With the de-
cline of the manufacturing industries, for
us mainly in garments, the ripple effect on
small business was inevitable, and it had
taken its toll on our downtown by the late
70s. My uncle held on to the family busi-
ness as long as he could, but when urban
sprawl and strip malls became the trend,
his business, like many others, closed.
After years away from home, until 2002,
I never dreamed Id again be working in
Pittston. The other day I ran into an old
friend whom I hadnt seen in years and he
said, Its good to have you back in Pitt-
ston.
Where else in the world could you feel
more welcome than home?
Now that I find myself again driving on
Main Street, I often reminisce about the
familys gatherings and the conversations
of patrons who passed through for a cup of
Grandpas homemade soup or a bran muf-
fin at the familiar restaurant on the corner
of Main and Charles streets. The buildings
structure is the same today, where now a
small business is undergoing an expansion.
I know Grandpa would be pleased.
Looking up and down Main Street, its
exciting to see the new shops, restaurants,
professional services, recreation venues
and works of art popping up everywhere,
bringing back the image and opportunity
our ancestors enjoyed.
A lot of great people are helping to revi-
talize Pittston, and they deserve our grat-
itude.
Thanks to the Pittston Chamber of Com-
merce, the Redevelopment Authority, city
administration and the many hometown
professionals, families and volunteers all
of whom are dedicated to restoring our
city and making us proud, again, to call
Pittston our home.

Townships citation cruel
in light of fathers grief
S
hame on the Fairview Township police,
along with the help of seemingly heart-
less township residents, for issuing Dan
Madry a criminal trespass citation.
This father is grieving for his son. How
dare they intrude on his grief?
As a mother who lost a son, I under-
stand this mans pain. I also understand
that its private property, but obviously
Dan Madry feels a deep connection near
the roadside memorial created for his son.
If walking his dog nearby makes his pain
more bearable, then so be it.
To issue a trespass citation under cir-
cumstances such as these is absurd. Dan
Madry would be better served with a little
compassion rather than a citation.
My condolences to the Madry family.

Closing of refineries
can only hurt economy
A
t a time when the price of heating oil is
experiencing high spikes and commu-
nities are facing shortages, why are we
taking our economic security out of our
hands?
The decision by ConocoPhillips and
Sunoco to close their three refineries along
the Delaware River is just another example
of big corporations putting profit ahead of
their own country. One of the companies
said it could record a pre-tax gain of about
$2 billion if it sells or closes the refineries.
For years the oil companies have been
telling us that the price of fuel is high
because the government wont let them
open new refineries. Here they are willing-
ly shutting three of them.
Shutting these refineries only means
more dependence on foreign oil, and de-
pendence on foreign oil was what led to
the invasion of Iraq in 2003.
The U.S. Department of Energy already
has shown that the decision to close these
plants will cause shortages and price
spikes in the cost of home heating oil for
almost 6 million families in the Northeast.
The closing of these refineries will be
devastating to the economy of Marcus
Hook and the surrounding towns, since
Sunoco is the largest employer in the area.
Our elected officials are allowing our
economic security to be eroded without
any public input from Pennsylvania fam-
ilies. They should hear from us.
I urge our elected officials to hold public
hearings on the sale of the Sunoco plant.

Zacharys Law takes
a huge step forward
J
an. 24 was a monumental day.
About two years earlier an idea was
born for a law in Pennsylvania. My
14-month-old son, Zachary Scott, had been
murdered in 2005. I learned that in Penn-
sylvania a crime of third-degree murder
could carry a sentence of as little as six
years in prison. I wanted to change the law
to help ensure that anyone who murders a
child, age 13 or younger, in the third de-
gree would serve at least 13 years in pris-
on.
The members of CHILD (an organiza-
tion that I co-founded) approached state
Rep. Kevin Murphy of Scranton and told
him how we wanted to change the law. He
signed on right away. He understood that
this was the most heinous crime against
our most vulnerable citizens, our children.
Rep. Murphy and the founders of CHILD
worked diligently to help gain support for
our bill: HB 601, Zacharys Law.
The journey was long, and we had many
hurdles to pass and many supporters to
gain. All of the hard work over the past
two years led us to Tuesday, Jan. 24.
This was the day the House of Repre-
sentatives would vote on our bill.
As a constituent and someone who had
never been to the House chamber, I need
to explain to you the magic of that after-
noon through my eyes. I saw Rep. Murphy
speaking to other representatives on both
sides of the aisle. He had educated every-
one about the importance of our bill. I saw
Rep. Murphy deliver a passionate speech.
Even when opposition arose he didnt
quiver. He responded with confidence.
Following Rep. Murphy were the voices
of Rep. Ronald Waters, Rep. Todd Ste-
phens, Rep. Thomas Caltagirone and both
House leaders, Rep. Frank Dermody and
Rep. Mike Turzai. When it was all over, the
final vote was recorded: 192-1 in favor of
our bill!
It was a tremendous victory. I am honor-
ed to have Rep. Murphy as the prime spon-
sor of our bill.
I know that we have the right leader
who will see it through the Senate and to
the governors desk.

FTER PRESIDENT
Obama announced
his latest effort to try
to stem foreclosures
last week, House Speaker John
A. Boehner, R-Ohio, said it was
time for Washington to stop
meddling and let the market
bottom out. But the problem
hasnt been Washington inter-
ference; its been poorly de-
signed programs and hesitant
lenders.
The right response to the lin-
gering malaise in housing is to
keep trying to persuade banks
to take some short-term losses
to minimize the long-termcost
of the housing meltdown, for
their own sake and their cus-
tomers.
The White Houses latest
plan prods Fannie Mae, Fred-
die Mac and banks to refinance
millions of creditworthy bor-
rowers who cant get newloans
because they owe more than
their homes are worth (so-
called underwater mortgages).
It also would raise the subsi-
dies available for banks that
write down the debt of default-
ing borrowers, enabling deeply
underwater loans to be modi-
fied, but only if it saves the
lender money in the long run.
Research by the Federal Re-
serve shows that writing down
debt is not only the most effec-
tive way to keep borrowers in
their homes, but also can cut a
lenders losses significantly.
Nevertheless, lenders have
been timid when it comes to
debt reduction, fearful that bor-
rowers who arent in trouble
would default just to obtain a
modification.
Thats why its important for
Washington to keep tweaking
these programs until lenders
respond, rather than sitting
back and waiting for the wave
of foreclosures to subside.

Healthy lending

G
OV. TOM Corbetts
proposed state bud-
get could be a pre-
scription for disaster
for higher education in Penn-
sylvania.
The total $27.13 billion
spending plan would avoid tax
increases but deeply cut funds
for most state colleges and uni-
versities.
Three of the four state-relat-
ed universities Temple, Penn
State and the University of
Pittsburgh would take the
biggest hits, about a 30 percent
cut each. Only Lincoln Univer-
sity among that group would
not see a reduction; its funding
would remain at the current-
year level of $11.1 million.
The 14 colleges in the State
System of Higher Education
would see their funding
slashed by 20 percent. Com-
munity colleges could get a
smaller funding cut.
In his budget address to law-
makers Tuesday, Corbett said,
Thesetoughdecisions will lay
the groundwork for the pros-
perity of tomorrow. But for
thousands of struggling fam-
ilies, the governors proposed
budget brings the likelihood of
more tuition increases, which
could put a college education
for their children beyond their
reach.
Its true that higher educa-
tion can and must do a better
job of finding efficiencies and
reducing costs. But the states
colleges and universities can-
not afford another major hit
like the one
Corbett now
proposes. If it
really values
higher edu-
cation, the
Legislature
must find an-
other way.
In seeking alternatives, law-
makers should first demand
that the state-related schools
have a chance to appear at bud-
get hearings tomake their indi-
vidual appeals for adequate
funding.
In a highly unusual move,
Senate appropriations Chair-
man Jake Corman, R-Centre
County, has decided not to
hold the budget hearings for
higher education that usually
occur each February. Corman
said they were not needed be-
cause hearings were held last
fall across the state. But those
fivehearings wereheldmonths
before Corbetts budget ad-
dress and before school offi-
cials had a clear picture of his
proposed cuts.
Budget hearings last year
helped then-Penn State presi-
dent Graham B. Spanier per-
suade the Legislature to re-
duce Corbetts planned cuts.
Senate Democratic appropri-
ations Chairman Vincent
Hughes, D-Philadelphia, says
he might hold hearings if Cor-
man wont. Thats good. High-
er education should have a fo-
rum to plead its case.

Musto Carroll wrote to the AGs
office and requested the AG as-
sume jurisdiction of the matter
because of a conflict of interest.
On Nov. 1, 2011, our office as-
sumed jurisdiction of this case,
the letter states.
No reaction fromUrban
When contacted at her home,
Urban said she didnt have much
to say about the AGs decision.
I guess the attorney general
doesnt feel this particular crimi-
nal complaint was valid, she
said. I really have no comment;
its the way it is. Theres nothing
to say.
In November, Urban sharply
criticized Leighton and Murphy
for spending more than $15,000
of public money to equip their
homes with security systems. Ur-
ban filed private criminal com-
plaints against them alleging
theft andmisappropriationof tax-
payer funds.
At the time, Urban said she
contacted the Attorney Generals
Office to look into whether the
citys tax-exempt status was ille-
gally used in the purchases from
Torbik Safe & Lock Inc. She said
there seems tobe a criminal con-
spiracy issue between J.J. and the
mayor.
In her complaints filed on Oct.
14 at the office of District Judge
Andrew Barilla, Urban accused
Leighton of misappropriation of
taxpayer funds by an elected city
official, unlawful taking, illegal
disposition of funds and criminal
conspiracy to commit a crime of
larceny. Against Murphy she filed
charges of larceny, criminal con-
spiracy illegal disposition of pub-
lic funds and theft by unlawful
taking.
The complaints were forward-
ed to then-Luzerne County Dis-
trict Attorney Musto Carroll for
reviewand a decision on whether
to approve the charges.
When contacted Wednesday,
Carroll said she forwarded the
charges to the AGs Office for con-
sideration.
Leighton said Wednesday he
was not aware of the letter sent to
the DAs Office and he expressed
relief to learn of the decision.
Baseless allegation
I have been consistent from
the beginning that these com-
plaints were frivolous and would
be dismissed as such, Leighton
said. We fully cooperated with
this inquiry, andI amhappytosee
that these allegations were right-
fully dismissed.
This is yet another baseless al-
legationfromcritics of myadmin-
istration that has been dismissed
in recent days. They are nothing
more than attempts by some in
this community to distract the
city from completing the impor-
tant work that the people sent us
here todo. They will not succeed.
My administration has been and
remains anhonest andopenone.
Murphy, who left the adminis-
tration in early 2010 to start a pri-
vate consulting business, saidthe
charges have had a direct impact
on his business.
Ive said all along anybody can
file whatever they want valid or
not, he said. In the end, justice
prevailed. And I hope she (Ur-
ban) has a good attorney.
Murphy said he found it inter-
esting that Urban removed sev-
eral posts on social media sites
that he says defamed his name.
Murphysaidthealarmsystems
were installed after multiple
events at his home. He said he
feared for his safety and his fam-
ilys safety.
Leighton has stated in the past
that he received numerous
threats as well prior to the alarm
systems being installed.
This is a warning to anybody
who wants to slander public or
private individuals and should
make themthink twice, Murphy
said. All they are doing is discou-
raging good people from getting
involved in government.
Murphy said the incidents at
his home are all documented. He
said the Pennsylvania State Po-
lice were involved and investigat-
ed some of the cases.
It was all part of a campaignto
negatively affect Tom Leighton,
he said. Mrs. Urban thought it
was important to also defame my
character.
Alarms recommended
In 2005, after several incidents
were reported, city Chief of Po-
lice Gerard Dessoye recommend-
ed the alarmsystems be installed
at the homes of Leighton and
Murphy. The reports said both
men received threats, verbal at-
tacks and intimidating letters
when the mayor decided to close
firehouses. The city paid for
monthly monitoring and rein-
stalled the system at Murphys
home at a cost of $6,500 when he
moved in late 2007.
In filing the complaints, Urban
citedthecitycharter that shesaid
prohibits gifts to oneself.
Urban, a Republican, lost her
bid for City Council in District D,
to former city police Chief Bill
Barrett.
ALARM
quickly approaching, and no ex-
isting alternative reapportion-
ment plan, defendant needs cer-
tainty as to how to proceed.
There is no reasonable alterna-
tive at this point but to allowthe
elections to proceed under the
2001 Plan, Surrick wrote.
The ruling is a setback for Re-
publicans and Latino groups,
the parties that asked the court
to block the use of the 2001
maps basedonequal representa-
tion and constitutionality.
But late Wednesday, in a joint
statement by House Majority
Leader Mike Turzai, R-Bradford
Woods, and Senate Majority
Leader Dominic Pillegi, R-Ches-
ter, the Republican leaders dis-
agreed on the issue of timing
and noted legal options are still
being reviewed.
(A)s directed by the Legisla-
tive Reapportionment Commis-
sion, we will present revised
maps on Feb. 15 and vote on
those maps at the commissions
meeting on Feb. 22, the state-
ment read.
That would forego a required
30-day waiting period for public
comments, something Turzai
said is unnecessary because
public comment was taken into
account during appeals to the
new maps.
State Rep. Eddie Day Pashin-
ski, D-Wilkes-Barre, took issue
with that logic and said he
doubts it will pass legal muster.
This gives us two years to
make sure a fair and appropriate
plan is put forward based on the
rules, Pashinski said.
Under the 2011plan, the 121st
District that Pashinski repre-
sents would have gained Fair-
view Township, Sugar Notch,
Laurel Run, Warrior Run a por-
tion of Hanover and Wright
townships and lost Plains Town-
ship and Ashley.
The ruling means his only de-
clared opponent, Fairview
Township businessman Pete
Mailloux, lives outside of the
district and cant run against
him.
State Superior Court Presi-
dent Judge Correale Stevens
calledthe redistrictingprocess a
legal mess when summarizing
the situation earlier Wednesday
as guest speaker at a meeting of
the Rotary Club of Hazleton.
Stevens noted there have
been informal discussions in the
Legislature about holding the
states primary election in April
as planned, but including only
federal offices on the ballot and
having a special election for
state-level offices later in the
year, possibly in the summer.
That would give the reappor-
tionment commission time to
make a new plan, he said.
Surrick said he doesnt want
to postpone the primary be-
cause it could deprive residents
the right to vote in the presiden-
tial primary.
Pashinski said the two-pri-
mary option would be costly
and confusing.
Surricks opinion essentially
upholds a previous state Su-
preme Court ruling urging use
of the 2001legislative maps that
have been in place the past dec-
ade.
In that state court ruling, is-
sued Jan. 25, the court foundthe
redistricting plan created by the
five-member commission failed
to meet the standards required
by the state Constitution and or-
dered new districts be drawn.
Democratic state Sen. JohnYud-
ichak, D-Plymouth Township,
agreed.
He and other critics said the
rejected districts were drawn to
benefit Republicans, not for the
sake of residents and communi-
ties. The federal court denied a
Republican lawsuit to delay the
primary. The Supreme Court
and now a federal court have
spoken. Partisan politics cant
rule the process. It belongs to
the people, not the parties.

perspective on the status of the state legislative redistricting
process at a meeting of the Rotary Club of Hazleton on Wednes-

man Services as part of an effort
to guarantee that womenreceive
free preventive health care ser-
vices, including cervical cancer
screening, breast pumps and
contraception. They require em-
ployers to include those services
in their employee health insur-
ance plans by August. Religious
institutions are granted an ex-
tension until August 2013.
Exemptions are possible if the
services violate institutions be-
liefs, but not if they employ large
numbers of people who do not
share those beliefs. This means a
Catholic hospital or university
that employs largely non-Cathol-
ic workers must providefreecon-
traception in its employees
health insurance, even though
birth control violates Catholic
doctrine.
Bishop Joseph Bambera, in an
open letter to Catholics within
the Scranton Diocese sent out
Wednesday, wrote about the per-
ils of the mandate and the conse-
quences of not following it.
Unless the rule is overturned,
we Catholics will be compelled
either to violate our consciences
or to drop health coverage for
our employees (and suffer the
penalties for doing so), he
wrote. Simply put, as Catholics,
we cannot comply with this un-
just law.
Presidents of local Catholic
colleges, including the Rev. John
Ryan at Kings College, Michael
MacDowell at Misericordia Uni-
versity, the Rev. Kevin Quinn at
the University of Scranton and
Sister Anne Munley at Mary-
wood University, signed a letter
sponsored by the U.S. Confer-
ence of Catholic Bishops that
was published in The New York
Times and The Washington Post
in December.
The full-page advertisement
read: As written, the rule will
force Catholic organizations that
play a vital role in providing
healthcareandother neededser-
vices either to violate their con-
science or severely curtail those
services. This would harm both
religious freedom and access to
health care.
TheHHSmandateputs many
faith-based organizations and in-
dividuals in an untenable posi-
tion. But it also harms society as
a whole by undermining a long
Americantraditionof respect for
religious liberty and freedom of
conscience. In a pluralistic socie-
ty, our healthcare systemshould
respect the religious and ethical
convictions of all. We ask Con-
gress, the administration, and
our fellow Americans to ac-
knowledge this truth and work
with us to reformthe lawaccord-
ingly, the letter reads.
JohnMcAndrew, a spokesman
for Kings College, said since the
mandate is more than a year
away, the school is hopeful an
agreement can be worked out
that removes religious institu-
tions from the mandate.
He added that the school is
working with the U.S. Confer-
ence of Catholic Bishops and the
National Association of Catholic
Colleges and Universities on the
matter. Kings is also in agree-
ment with Bishop Bamberas re-
cent statement on the issue.
He declined to provide details
of the schools health plan, of-
fered through Blue Cross of
Northeast Pennsylvania and
made available to the colleges
448 full-time employees.
Paul Krzywicki, a spokesman
for Misericordia University, is-
sued a terse statement saying,
Misericordia stands by the
statement inthe adandwill offer
no further comment on this is-
sue. He declined to provide de-
tails of the health care plan em-
ployees receive through the
schools Geisinger plan.
Following the pending closure
of Marian Community Hospital
in Carbondale later this month,
there will be no Catholic hospi-
tals remaining in the region.
Gladys Bernet, a spokeswo-
man for Regional Hospital of
Scranton, whichhadbeenMercy
Hospital prior to being sold to
Community HealthSystems Inc,
said contraceptives are covered

publican, said in a rare floor
speech.
On the other side of the Capi-
tol, the Republican onslaught
continued, with GOP senators
vowing to push ahead with legis-
lation to undo the requirement.
The White House, facing a
public and political outcry, sig-
naled on Tuesday that a compro-
mise is possible. Options could
include granting leeway for a
church-affiliated employer to not
cover birth control, provided it
referred employees to an insurer
who would provide the coverage.
Another idea, previously re-
jected by the administration,
calls for broadening the defini-
tion of a religious employer that
would be exempt from the man-
date beyond houses of worship
and institutions whose primary
purpose is to spread the faith.
That broader approach would
track a definition currently used
by the IRS, bringing in schools,
hospitals and social service agen-
cies that deal with the general
public.
Boehner said that if the admin-
istration fails to reverse the pol-
icy, then Congress will act. He
said in the coming days, the
House Energy and Commerce
Committee will move ahead on
legislation.

the same challenges and con-
flicts in being fair and impar-

The attorney generals office
asked for an out-of-county jury
last week, calling news coverage
of Sanduskys arrest spectacu-
lar in its breadth and intensity.
Prosecutors said in that mo-
tion that people who live near
Penn State might not be able to
insulate themselves from the
school and would face a Gor-
dian knot of conscious and even
subconscious conflicts and diffi-
culties.
It would put potential jurors
in that county in an extremely
difficult if not impossible posi-
tion, and that is something that
does not exist in the same de-
gree inanyother countyinPenn-
sylvania, Nils Frederiksen,
spokesman for the attorney gen-
erals office, said Wednesday.
Frederiksen said the courts
deadline to ask that the trial be
held outside Centre County has
passed without either side mak-
ing such a request.
Amendola said one solution
might be to delay the trial, let-
ting the news coverage sub-
side and giving the judge time
to determine how to proceed.
Amendola said in an email
Wednesday that he planned to
discuss the idea with prosecu-
tors to see how everyone feels
about it in light of all the media
coverage.
Frederiksen declined to com-
ment Wednesday on a potential
delay.
Amendola also filed a re-
sponse inoppositiontoa request
prosecutors made Tuesday to
have Sanduskys bail conditions
amended so that he would not
be permitted outside his home
except for medical treatment.
Prosecutors said neighbors have
raised safety concerns and re-
ported seeing Sandusky watch
children on the school play-
ground adjacent to his backyard.
Sandusky denies that anyone
is at risk in his neighborhood or
any adjourning neighborhoods
and that any fears on the part of
any of his neighbors about their
safety or the safety of others is
totally unfounded, Amendola
wrote.
A court hearing is scheduled
for Friday in Bellefonte on vari-
ous pretrial issues, including a
request bySanduskythat his bail
conditions be loosenedsohe can
have contact with his grandchil-
dren and others. Amendola said
Sandusky was likely to be in
court for the proceeding.
Also Wednesday, Amendola
saidhe receivedcorrespondence
from the Centre County Depart-
ment of Children and Youth Ser-
vices that said two recent cases
involving abuse allegations
against Sandusky were deemed
to be unfounded. That develop-
ment was first reported by The
Patriot-News of Harrisburg.

HARRISBURGAgroup represent-
ing Pennsylvania horse trainers, owners
and breeders is warning that Gov. Tom
Corbetts budget could devastate the
states horse racing industry.
Pennsylvania Equine Coalition
spokesman Pete Peterson said Wednes-
day that the governors plan to transfer
$72 million from a state fund set up to
bolster the industry with money from
slot-machine gambling could undo the
progress made so far toward improving
prizes for racers and breeders.
Corbett wants to shift the money into
other programs, including agricultural
research, the University of Pennsylva-
nias veterinary school and agricultural
fairs, as part of the $27.1 billion state
budget blueprint he presented to law-
makers Tuesday.
More than11percent of gross revenue
from the 10 slot-machine casinos was
earmarked for the Race Horse Develop-
ment Fund as part of the law that legal-
ized slots in 2004, according to the
Pennsylvania GamingControl Board. In
2010-11, about $275 million was sup-
posed to go into the fund.
But changes made in 2009, during
Gov. Ed Rendells administration, re-
quired that nearly $50 million a year be
transferred into the state General Fund
through June 2013 to help ease pressure
on the state budget. Corbetts proposal
would result in nearly $120 million be-
ing diverted fromthe racing fund in the
year that starts July 1.

SHAVERTOWN In the
spring of 1963, President John F.
Kennedy strongly urged his mil-
itary officers to become more ac-
tive in the pursuit of physical fit-
ness, resulting in numerous 50-
mile events that took place all
over the country.
One such event, simply called
the JFK50 Mile
Run, is the only
one of these 50-
mile challenges
that is still held
on an annual
basis.
While the
JFK 50 Mile
Run was first
created with
the fitness of
military per-
sonnel in mind,
all healthy and
able-bodied
members of the
public are open
toparticipate in
the challenge.
With February being cardiac
health month, it would also be a
great time for a runner to check
with their doctor and then begin
a training program for the next
installment of the event.
In November, local athletes Er-
ic McCabe of ShavertownandKe-
vin Bandru of Dickson City were
among several who decided to
take part in the long-distance or-
deal. For McCabe, it was his first
time running the daunting 50
mile course while Bandru return-
ed to endure the annual event for
the third consecutive year.
I kept saying I was going to
wait until I turned 50 (to run in
the JFK50 Mile Run), but when I
was 48, I kept injuring my calf
muscles soI decidedtojust gofor
it, Bandru said. Since I was
forced to run slower, it made
sense togolonger. Awhole group
of my friends had been going
downyearlytodoit andtheykept
bugging me, so I gave it a shot.
Two years later, Bandru is still
running strong.
McCabe added that the run is
alsoa goodway toshowapprecia-
tion to our military personnel,
who deserve our utmost grati-
tude and respect.
The JFK 50 Mile Run takes
place on a truly grueling course,
beginning in the small town of
Boonsboro, Md. (located outside
of Hagerstown). The first 5.5
miles, which start on a road sur-
face before joining the Appala-
chian Trail at the 2.5 mile mark,
take place on a steep, windy path
that gradually gains over 1,000
feet in elevation.

ts difficult to call the Kings Col-
lege womens basketball team pret-
ty these days, after the Lady Mon-
archs have been winning so ugly.
But what theyve accomplished is
head-turning.
The Lady Monarchs are making
clutch shots, making games come out
in their favor and making history.
They became the first Kings wom-
ens team to ever go unbeaten through
the first 11 league games by beating
Delaware Valley on Wednesday. In the
process, the Lady Monarchs, 19-3 over-
all, clinched the Freedom Conferences
regular-season championship. And that
gives them the No. 1 seed and home
court advantage throughout the up-
coming Freedom Conference tourna-
ment.
All of that looks absolutely stunning
to the Lady Monarchs.
Its actually really exciting, Kings
college senior guard Paige Carlin said.
But is beauty in the eye of the be-
holder?
The margin of victory for Kings is
shrinking faster than the waistline of a
person on a Slim-Fast! diet.
Those earlier double-digit victories
turned into a steady diet of nail-biters
over the past couple of weeks, when
Kings captured four games by less
than six points.
Even their 79-69 victory over a Dela-
ware Valley team that fell to 12-10
overall and 3-8 in conference play start-
ed as a struggle for the Lady Mon-
archs, who trailed 37-33 at the half.
You can look at it as a wakeup call,
said Kings guard Katlin Michaels, a
Berwick High grad.
Or you can look at it as true grit.
The close calls Kings has been sur-
viving since the middle of January
suggest the Lady Monarchs had plenty
of opportunity to falter.
Yet, they never did.
I just think our team is so talented,
said Carlin, who came off the bench
Wednesday to pop home a game-high
20 points and pull within 14 of her
career 1,000th point. They are getting
closer, the game scores. Thats just
because its February. I just think ev-
eryone knows what we run.
Suggest the Lady Monarchs may be
running out of gas, and Kings coach
Brian Donoghue gets more defensive
than one of his teams typical zone
lockdowns in the second half.
Goodness, no, said Donoghue,
who watched the Lady Monarchs turn
the game Wednesday by holding Dela-
ware Valley scoreless for more than six
minutes at the start of the second half.
League play, this time of year, scores
are always going to be close. It hap-
pens in every league across the coun-
try.
We did a lot of good things to-
night.
They promise the best is yet to
come.
We have league goals and we have
national goals, Donoghue said. To
achieve both of those, we need to keep
going.
Thats why the Lady Monarchs will
come hard into their regular season
home finale against Manhattanville on
Saturday, then into their remaining
two road games against area rivals
Misericordia and Wilkes next week.
Even with the top spot in the play-
offs fitting firmly under their belts, the
Lady Monarchs say they cant afford to
start acting like fat cats.
We can never let up, Carlin insist-
ed. Being 11-0, well get everybodys
best game against us.
Were just in it to win it.
In other words, Kings wants to win
out. That goal of being unbeatable in
the conference remains within reach
for Kings, no matter how unglamorous
its path seems in the scorebook. And a
14-0 conference finish would look
mighty attractive come playoff time.

DALLAS For a rare few moments,
the Anderson Center went silent. The
lulls didnot come whenMisericordia was
on the verge of losing a 17-point lead, but
rather when the Cougars were poised to
pull out the win.
Three trips to the foul line for Miser-
icordia in overtime, three chances for a
boisterous student section to rest its col-
lective voice.
And six made free throws, helping the
Cougars hold on for a dramatic 94-89 win
over Eastern on Wednesday night.
I believe that our last game (an over-
time win at DeSales) prepared us, Cou-
gars coachTrevor Wood-
ruff said. I said in the
huddle coming out for
overtime, Weve been
here. Weve proven we
can win a game in over-
time against a good op-
ponent. So lets just go
and do what we do.
Fortunately, it worked out.
Feeding off of an energized atmo-
sphere, Misericordia extended one of the
best stretches inthe programs recent his-
tory, winning a seventh straight game to
pull alone into first place in the Freedom
Conference. The Cougars (16-6, 8-3)
moved a game ahead of Eastern and
Wilkes with three left to play.
Not that it was easy.
What had looked to be a safe 17-point
second-half lead for the Cougars quickly
vanished.
Down 68-51 with under seven minutes
to play, Eastern (14-8, 7-4) ripped off a
stunningly quick 13-0 run to pull within
four and eventually took a 76-74 lead on a
Mike Donatoni three with 1:50 to play.
Steve Artzerounian (career-high 30
points) put theCougars backontop78-77
with 40 seconds on the clock. But a mis-
sed free throw on the next Cougars pos-
session allowed Colin Whipple to grab

Wyoming Areas Amy Alder swims to victory in the girls 200 freestyle against Pittston Area during
a WVC Division 3 meet in Yatesville on Wednesday afternoon.
Patriots romp over rivals
The Times Leader staff
PEBBLE BEACH, Calif. In
what Robert Louis Stevenson
called the most felicitous meet-
ing of land and sea, the sea was
winning Wednesday at Pebble
Beach.
Jimmy Walker stood in the
bunker next to the sea wall
along the 18th fairway, soaking
up the scenery. Every 15 sec-
onds, waves crashed into the
rocks and sent a spectacular
splash of white surf some 15 feet
high.
There was so much salt water
in the front of the bunker that
the father of Harris English said
to Bob Estes, Is this played as a
waste area? Estes smiled and
pointed to the rakes placed neat-
ly next to the sand. No, these
are bunkers, he replied.
If the final day of practice for
the Pebble Beach National Pro-
Am was any indication, then this
could be a special week.
Not just because Tiger Woods
is back at this event for the first
time in 10 years. He practiced on
the Shore Course at Monterey
Peninsula, which he had never
seen. The last time he played,
Poppy Hills was part of the rota-
tion.
And not just because of the
unique blend of amateurs from
the world of Hollywood, sports
and Wall Street. One group at
Pebble featured San Francisco
49ers coach Jim Harbaugh, quar-
terback Alex Smith, retired line-
man Harris Barton and
Deutsche Bank Americas chief
executive Seth Waugh.
There are times when the
beauty of Pebble Beach makes a
six-hour round tolerable.
No one was in any hurry
Wednesday.
If you have a bad experience
here, it can feel like the longest
week of your life, Geoff Ogilvy
said as he walked up the fourth
fairway at Pebble, his head turn-
ed to the right to gaze at the sea.
If its a good experience, its en-
joyable. And if its like this, it can
feel like the greatest week of the
year.
It proved to be a tonic for
Spencer Levin.
Only four days ago, Levin was
poised to win his first PGA Tour
event when he took a six-shot
lead into the final round of the
Phoenix Open. He found himself
rushing, just wanting the final
round to be over, and he kept
dropping shots. A double bogey
on the 15th hole doomed him,
and Kyle Stanley rallied from
eight shots behind to win.
Levin was heartbroken, which
was to be expected.
I was really bummed out Sun-
day night, pretty bummed out
Monday, Levin said. But I got
here, and then I was like, Man, I
get to play Pebble Beach today,
so thats pretty cool. Its not like
youre going home and playing
the muni in your backyard.
Wow, Im at Pebble. So I didnt
think about it much playing out
here.
Davis Love III is making his
27th start at the AT&T Pebble
Beach National Pro-am.

the rebound and tie the game up for Eastern
on a coast-to-coast drive with 12.7 seconds
left.
Misericordia turnedit over just before time
expired in regulation and Easterns ensuing
half-court heave was off the mark, bringing
on overtime.
The teams traded early buckets before Art-
zerounian put the Cougars up for good, scor-
ing off a well-executed lob under the basket
with1:41left in the extra frame. Misericordia
iced it from the foul line from there.
Shooting 55 percent from the floor on the
night (47 percent from three), Misericordia
didnt cool down in overtime, hitting 4-of-6
shots in the period and all six free throws.
Following up Artzerounians big night was
Ethan Eichhorst, who turned in a double-
double with 17 points and 11 rebounds while
adding seven assists. Matt Greene (16
points), Jeff Slanovec (13) and Joe Busacca

Misericordia women clinch
For the fourth straight season since joining
the Freedom Conference, the Misericordia
womens squad is headed to the postseason.
The Cougars picked up one of their biggest
wins of the year on Wednesday, outlasting
Eastern 68-56 at the Anderson Center to
wrap up a berth in the Freedom Conference
tournament.
I was thrilled with our effort tonight, in-
terim coach Dave Martin said. I thought we
competed, I thought we really defended and
weregettinggreat leadershipout of (seniors)
Jess Robinson and Chris Marks.
For at least one night, the logjam was bro-
ken near the top of the league standings, as
the win put Misericordia (12-9, 8-3) alone in-
to second place.
The Cougars now sit a game in front of
Eastern and a half-game ahead of DeSales,
which plays tonight. Misericordia split the
season series with both teams in the battle to
host a semifinal game on Feb. 22.
On Wednesday, Marks led four Misericor-
dia players in double figures with 16 points,
followed by Tyann McDaniel (15), Robinson
(13) and Hannah Seely (12).
The latter was a bit of a surprise, as Seely
hadmissedthelast threegames withanankle
injury but returned early to give the Cougars
a lift with a strong effort at both ends of the
court.
Seely and Robinson had four steals apiece
as the Cougars forced the Eagles (16-6, 7-4)
into 21 turnovers.

Based on the background of
the two fighters, it would make
sense to assume the main event
of PA Cage Fight 10 will come
down to wrestling skills.
Not so fast, according to Justin
Hickey, who will take on Jason
McLean in the main event of the
card scheduled for Friday at The
Woodlands.
Hickey that although both
competitors have his roots in
wrestling, his style as a Mixed
Martial Arts fighter is a little
more difficult to label.
Im still trying to figure that
out myself, Hickey said. I have
the wrestling background, but
Ive worked on everything else in
my game.
I love striking. I love every-
thing about the sport, so theres
not really one word to describe
me.
Still, Hickey has a few.
Im explosive. Im exciting,
he said. I try to do whatever
comes to mind at the time.
I dont really have a built-in
game plan. I go for whatever is
open at the time.
Hickey, a 5-foot-7, 145-pounder
from northern Virginia, was in-
troduced to the sport by Kris
McCray, his wrestling coach at
Gar-Field High School. McCray
won the main event of PA Cage
Fight 9 on Nov. 25 in Scranton.
Before attending Old Domin-
ion University, where he compet-
ed unattached in some tourna-
ments while being redshirted in
his freshman year on the wres-
tling squad, Hickey already tried
his first MMA bout as an ama-
teur.
Hickey, 23, left Old Dominion
to attend college closer to home
at George Mason University in
Fairfax, Va., ending his wrestling
career, but leaving him in posi-
tion to continue his MMA train-
ing.
After going 4-0 as an amateur,
Hickey is 5-2 as a professional, in-
cludingwins inhis last twobouts.
Hickey is currently working
out in Toms River, N.J., after
spending time in New Mexico,
where he still heads at times for
more training. He will be making
his first appearance in a profes-
sional main event and will be
headingtotheareatofight for the
first time.
Ive heard a lot of good
things, Hickey said. Im really
close friends with Jimy Hettes.
Im actually going to go there to
train before the fight.
Hettes, from Swoyersville,
picked up his second Ultimate
Fighting Championship victory
Dec. 30 to improve to 10-0 as a
pro.
Hickey is still trying to make
his name in the sport, but said he
is trying not to place too much
emphasis on the main event sta-
tus.
I dont really want to make it a
big deal, Hickey said. Its a
fight. I dont really want to have
that too much in my head.
Idwant to put ona goodshow
even if I was the first fight.
McLean, from Plainfield, N.J.,
is 6-4 as a professional but has
lost two of his last three bouts.
Theformer DivisionIII All-Amer-
icanat Muhlenbergis a headhigh
school wrestling coach in New
Jersey.
The card currently calls for
three professional and up to 11
amateur bouts.
The highlight of the amateur
card is Mayfields Martin Wojna-
rowski (5-0) taking on East
Stroudsburgs Eric Roncoroni
(3-0) in a PA Cage Fight Series

This budget is not support-

said Todd Mostoller, director of

Owners, trainers and breed-
ers have invested millions of dol-
lars in Pennsylvania with the
legislative promise that horse
racing would provide a good re-
turn on their investment, said
Kim Hankins of the Meadows
Standardbred Owners Associ-
ation. It is unfathomable that
the governor now wants to stifle
the growth of this still emerging
industry.
Corbetts spokesman, Kevin
Harley, said his boss did not
break a campaign promise. Cor-
bett pledged only to promote
the industry through education-
al venues such as the agricultu-
ral fairs, he said.
He never made a commit-
ment of financial support, Har-

McCabe was also able to block
out the pain, choosing to use the
emotional pain of loss as motiva-
tionto press onward.
I ran the JFK50 in memory of
several close family members
who recently passed after coura-

said. For me, whatever pain my
body may have felt from running
that day never really registered.

After the pain subsided, both
men had a chance to really rest
and reflect on what they had ac-
complished. Not only did they
meet the challenge posedby Ken-
nedy49yearsago, buttheygained
several life experiences simply
through running along the way:
strength of character, the power
of determination and the forging
of friendships.
WhileMcCabestatedhewould
cherish his experiences for a life-
time, it was Bandruwhosummed
up his love for the JFK 50 Mile
Runbest.
I usually compare the week-
end to Christmas weekend be-
cause I look so forward to the
whole expo and the camaraderie
of all the people, Bandru said. I
plan on doing it as long as I possi-
bly can.

Inordertotrainforarunof such

that he participates inat least one
marathonona monthly basis. Ac-
cording to him, even those who
are able to run over 50 miles a
weekrequireaspecial mindset for
long-distance runs.
Itsalot of negotiatingthelong
runs, Bandru said. In your head
youtell yourself that if youcanget
to here, you canmake it there. Its
really about mental toughness.
McCabe also outlined the impor-
tance of building up physical
strengthprior toa harshlong-dis-
tance run.
The key for me was to contin-
ually increase my weekend long
run over a period of several
months, McCabe said. My final
long run, which was three weeks
prior to the race, was about 30
miles.
When the day of the run finally
arrived and their numbers were
put on, the two eagerly awaited
thestart of theraceandwondered
to what extent their training
would pay off once the 50 miler
began.
For many first time participa-
nts in the run, the pain following
the rocky terrain of the Appala-
chian Trail can be excruciating.
For the veteran Bandru however,
the pain was anticipated and he
knewexactly howto deal withit.
There is a point at mile 27

ANN ARBOR, Mich. A person familiar with the NHLs plan said
the Detroit Red Wings will play the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 2013
Winter Classic.
The person spoke on the condition of anonymity Wednesday
because the league isnt expected to announce the matchup until
Thursday.
Earlier Wednesday, the University of Michigan Board of Regents
authorized the athletic department to seek a contract with the NHL
that would allow the league to hold next years showcase at
Michigan Stadium. The NHL has offered to pay up to $3 million for a
license to use the iconic college football stadium, according to the
recommendation approved by the board.
The recommendation also said the Winter Classic would be
scheduled for Jan. 1, 2013, with an alternate date of Jan. 2. A liquor
license would be obtained so alcohol could be served at the event,
and the NHL would bring its advertising and other sponsorship
arrangements into the stadium.
NEW YORK It appears San-
tonio Holmes is sticking around

would.
By remaining on the roster
through the second day of the
NFLs waiver period Tuesday, the
talented but troublesome wide re-
ceiver will get $15.25 million in
guaranteed money over the next
two seasons. A clause in Holmes
five-year, $5 million contract,
signed last offseason, kicked in
Wednesday morning.
Holmes futureappearedmurky
with the Jets after a tumultuous
season in which he feuded with
quarterback Mark Sanchez and
the offensive line, and was
benched during the season finale
inMiami forarguinginthehuddle.
Still, owner Woody Johnson,
GMMikeTannenbaumandcoach
Rex Ryan all insisted that Holmes
would remain with the team de-
spite the squabbles.
Holmes, alreadyguaranteedhis
salary for next season, had a $7.5
millionguaranteefor the2013sea-
son kick in after Tuesday. While
the Jets could still theoretically
cut himor try to trade him, the fi-
nancial commitment makes that
an unlikely scenario.
So, New York is stuck hoping
that Holmes can work out his is-
sues with his teammates and re-
turn to the playmaking form that
Ryan and the Jets became so
enamored of when they re-signed
himlast July.

The Big East has acquired all
the pieces needed to build a new
coast-to-coast conference. Put-
ting them all together, though, is
going to take a while.
The conference wanted to re-
build itself into a 12-team foot-
ball league that can hold a cham-
pionship game, and Memphis of-
ficially became that 12th mem-
ber on Wednesday when it
accepted an invite it has long
coveted.
But the new Big East isnt
scheduled to be fully functional
until the 2015 football season. As
for the next three years, what the
Big East will look like is any-
bodys guess.
Memphis is the seventh
school, and fourth from Confer-
ence USA, to sign up since De-
cember for future membership
in the Big East. The Tigers will
compete in the Big East in all
sports.
It certainly is an historic day
for us, University of Memphis
President Shirley Raines said
during a teleconference with Big
East Commissioner John Mari-
natto and Memphis Athletic Di-
rector R.C. Johnson.
Memphis has been trying to
upgrade its conference affiliation
for years, and the Big East was
always the most likely landing
spot. The Tigers were snubbed
during the Big Easts last mas-
sive expansion in 2005 and lost a
longtime rivalry with Louisville
in the process.
Now with the Big East in need
replacements for West Virginia,
Pittsburgh and Syracuse, there
was finally room for Memphis.
In December, the Big East an-
nounced Boise State and San
Diego State from the Mountain
West Conference would join in
2013 for football only, and Hous-
ton, SMU and Central Florida,
from C-USA, would become
members in all sports.
Last month, Navy football
jumped on board, though that
wont happen until 2015.
The Big East pitched Air Force
and BYU on joining, but couldnt
work out a deal with either. Tem-
ple was also being considered,
but the Philadelphia school and
former Big East member was
passed over for Memphis be-
cause the conference wanted to
bolster its new west wing.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. Kris
Joseph scored a career-high 29
points, hitting a go-ahead 3-
pointer in the final minute of
overtime, and No. 2 Syracuse
beat 12th-ranked Georgetown
64-61 on Wednesday night to
give coach Jim Boeheim his
880th career win.
Boeheim took sole posses-
sion of third place all-time in
Division I, one more than North
Carolinas Dean Smith, but it
wasnt easy against the Or-
anges rival.
The game was tied at 55 after
regulation, and freshman Otto
Porter scored the first four
points of overtime for the
Hoyas, swishing two free
throws and hitting a baseline
jumper to give Georgetown
61-59 lead with 2:19 left.
Dion Waiters tied it with a
pair of free throws for the Or-
ange, and after Porter lost the
ball out of bounds at the other
end, Scoop Jardine fed Joseph
in the left corner, and he buried
his career-best sixth 3 of the
game with 29 seconds left.
Jardine sealed it by forcing a
turnover by Jason Clark with
4.9 seconds to go, allowing
Syracuse (24-1, 11-1 Big East) to
remain unbeaten at home at
16-0. Georgetown (18-5, 8-4),
had won five of six entering the
game.
Fab Melo had 11 points, seven
rebounds and six blocks for
Syracuse, which won despite
being dominated on the glass
52-35. Jardine finished with
eight assists.
Porter led Georgetown with
14 points, Clark had 12 and
Hollis Thompson 10.
The 87th meeting between
the staunch rivals Syracuse
leads 48-39 had added signif-
icance. With Syracuses impend-
ing move to the Atlantic Coast
Conference, it might have been
the last time the teams meet as
Big East foes in the Carrier
Dome.
It turned into one to remem-
ber for the crowd of 27,820.

conference-leading and third-
ranked Ohio State, setting up a
big game Saturday on the road
against the Buckeyes.
The last-place Nittany Lions
(10-15, 2-10) have lost five
straight and eight of nine.
Michigan States Adreian
Payne matched a career high
with 12 points and freshman
Branden Dawson also had 12,
scoring in double figures for the
fifth straight game.
Tim Frazier scored 19 on
6-of-18 shooting for the Nittany
Lions.
Duke 85, North Carolina 84
CHAPEL HILL, N.C.
Freshman Austin Rivers buried
a 3-pointer at the horn to give
No. 10 Duke a win over No. 5
North Carolina.
Rivers scored a season-high
29 points and hit six 3s, though
the last will certainly live on in
the lore on the fierce rivalry.
With the Blue Devils (20-4,
7-2) trailing by two, Rivers
launched a 3 over 7-footer Tyler
Zeller from the right wing. The
ball swished through the net,
sending Rivers running down
the court in celebration while
the rest of his teammates gave
chase before mobbing him in
front of a stunned UNC crowd.
Rivers 3 capped a wild rally
for the Blue Devils, who trailed
by 10 points with about 2
1
2
minutes left.
Harrison Barnes scored 25
points for the Tar Heels (20-4,
7-2), while Zeller finished with
23 points and 11 rebounds. But
Zeller missed a free throw with
13.9 seconds left, setting up
Rivers winning shot.

start the second half and went
on to only their second win in
six Big Ten road games. The
Cornhuskers (11-12, 3-9) lost

with 5:09 remaining, went on
an 18-2 run to lead 75-69 with
22 seconds to go. George Wash-
ington went the entire stretch
without a field goal.
Cincinnati 76, St. Johns 54
NEW YORK Sean Kil-
patrick scored 10 of his 14
points in the opening 5 minutes
of the second half and Cincinna-
ti went on to a victory over St.
Johns.
The blowout win by the Bear-
cats (17-7, 7-4 Big East) ended a
string of four straight games
between the teams that ended
with two-point margins, in-
cluding St. Johns 57-55 win at
Cincinnati on Jan. 7.
Kansas 68, Baylor 54
WACO, Texas Jeff Withey
scored a career-high 25 points
and Kansas went ahead to stay
during a stretch without Tho-

scored a career-high 19 points,
including four 3-pointers, to
lead Boston College to a victory
over No. 15 Florida State and
snap the Atlantic Coast Confer-

streak at seven games.
BC (8-16, 3-7 ACC) had lost
six in a row and nine of its
previous 11. It had not beaten a
ranked team in three years.
But the Eagles took the lead
midway through the first half
and fell behind only briefly in
the second, running their lead
to eight points and holding on.

Wake Forest 44
CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va.
Mike Scott made all nine of his
shots and scored 19 points to
lead No. 19 Virginia to a win

Coast), who ended a six-game
losing skid at the hands of the
Demon Deacons.
Travis McKie scored 16

NEW YORK Showtime is
about to have a whole newmean-
ing for Magic Johnson.
The story of the NBA Hall of
Famers rivalry and friendship
with Larry Bird is coming to
BroadwayinMagic/Bird, set to
open in April. The two consulted
in its production, and Johnson
cant wait to watch their story
told.
His Showtime Lakers of the
1980s were a Hollywood hit, and
nowhes ready to see his name in
Broadways lights.
I guess its the real Show-
time, Johnsonsaidina phone in-
terview. When you think about
Broadway and you think about
Larry and I being on Broadway,
its definitely at its highest level
and I dont think either one of us
thought that we would be on
Broadway. If we was, wed be
there seeing a play and not a play
about our lives.
Its the second in a planned se-
ries of sports-themed plays from
producers Tony Ponturo and
Fran Kirmser, the team behind
Lombardi. Kirmser said even
before that shows success, they
wanted to tell the story of John-
son and Bird, who started as ri-
vals in college and finished as
Olympic teammates and long-
time friends.
They played at such a high
competitive level and there was
equally a high level of respect be-
tween the two of them, Kirmser
said. That is not something that
we see all the time now and we
thought it would be exciting to
take a look and relive the rivalry
live on stage and important to
take a look at this relationshipbe-
tween the two of them.
They reached out initially to
Johnson, who first brought his
wife, Cookie, to see Lombardi
before committing. Then it was
on to Bird, who, just like with the
Dream Team 20 years earlier,
wanted to first know that John-
son was on board.
Thats normally how it usual-
ly works with us, Johnson said.
Friendships between rivals is
nothing new in todays NBA,
where players seem just as eager
to team up with a foe than beat
him. But the fact that Johnson
and Bird became friends was sur-
prising even to them.
Their rivalry started when
Johnsons Michigan State team
knocked off Birds Indiana State
squad for the 1979 NCAA cham-
pionship. Bird, the reserved
white guy from Indiana, would
then end up in Boston, while
Johnson, outgoing, black and
made for the big city, went to the
Lakers, whohadnever beatenthe
Celtics in The NBA Finals.
They met for the champion-
ship three times as pros, with the
Lakers winning twice. But along
the way, what started as hatred
had softened, to the point that
Birdsaidhe lost some of his drive
once Johnson retired for the first
time in1991after contracting the
HIV virus.
Larry learned that Magic was
also Earvin, so it wasnt all show-
biz, and Magic probably learned
that Larry had a sense of humor
and personality behind that sort
of tough exterior as well, Pontu-
rosaidof their friendship. Some-
thing thats lasted 30 years in this
kind of environment is a story
worth telling.
Johnson and Bird met with the
writers and the actors portraying
them. Bird wanted assurances
the play would be true to his life
and found it to be accurate
though Tug Coker, the actor who
portrays him, has dark hair.
But Kirmser said Coker, who
has appeared on TV in shows
such as How I Met Your Moth-
er and The Office, has the
same facial intensity as Bird. She
said both he and Kevin Daniels,
who plays Johnson, play basket-
ball and really capture the es-
sence of these two individuals.
They pick up a basketball and
you believe it, Kirmser said.

The story of Magic Johnson

Former NBA players Magic Johnson, right, and Larry Bird share a
laugh at a news conference before the championship game be-
tween Michigan State and North Carolina at the mens NCAA
Final Four in 2009, in Detroit. Showtime is about to have a whole
new meaning for Magic Johnson. The story of his rivalry and
friendship with Larry Bird has been made into a play, opening in
New York in April.

Amazon seeks Jersey deal
Amazon.com, the worlds biggest
online retailer, is in talks to bring two
warehouses to New Jersey in a deal
that could bring 1,500 or more full-time
jobs to a state where unemployment
has hovered around 9 percent.
State Assembly Democratic Leader
Lou Greenwald, who has been involved
in the talks, told The Associated Press
Amazon is seeking a 22-month sales
tax holiday, which is opposed by some
retailers and at least one lawmaker.
Amazon has agreed to build distribu-
tion centers in Indiana, California,
Tennessee and South Carolina in ex-
change for sales tax exemptions
through 2014 or later.
Sanofi sees profits lower
Sanofi, the French drugmaker with
its vaccine division in Swiftwater, said
Wednesday that profits may drop as
much as 15 percent this year, hurt by
generic competition to its Plavix blood
thinner and Avapro hypertension drug
in the United States.
The French drugmaker reported a 13
percent increase in fourth-quarter
profit, boosted by its April acquisition
of Genzyme and higher demand for its
Lantus diabetes medicine.
Sanofi said last month that the U.S.
Food and Drug Administration ap-
proved a new plant in Framingham,
Mass., that will help Genzyme elim-
inate shortages of two of its rare-dis-
ease medicines.
More job cuts at Nokia
Nokia Corp. plans to stop assem-
bling cell phones in Europe by year-end
as it shifts production to Asia and will
cut another 4,000 jobs, its latest at-
tempts to cushion itself from stiff com-
petition in the smartphone sector.
The Finnish company said Wednes-
day it will make the cuts at three plants
in Finland, Mexico and Hungary as it
reorganizes global manufacturing oper-
ations to compete better with the Ap-
ple iPhone and handsets using Googles
Android operating software.
Visa profits swell
Visa Inc. says its fiscal first-quarter
profit rose 16 percent to $1 billion, or
$1.49 per share. Revenue rose 14 per-
cent to $2.55
Debit card use in the U.S. rose 6
percent, down from16 percent in the
prior-year quarter. It was the first quar-
ter that new rules limiting the fees
merchants pay to accept debit cards
were in place.

It seems that the
higher the altitude,
the crazier they come.
According to a re-
port by the British
newspaper The Tele-
graph, Felix Baum-
gartner is planning to go skydiving
25 miles up. It will take him a full 10
minutes to fall to Earth, at which time
he will be traveling at a speed of close
to 700 mph (faster than the speed of
sound), and be exposed to temper-
atures of nearly -100F.
Baumgartner will be carried aloft by
a modified weather balloon and will
wear a pressurized space suit to avoid
having his blood boiled in the ultra-
low pressure, low-temperature envi-
ronment, which, unlike falling from
space, is a danger that he seems un-
willing to confront.
This wont be the first time someone
has jumped from space. Col. Joseph
Kittinger, a U.S. Air Force test pilot,
jumped from a balloon at a height of
more than 100,000 feet, hitting 614
mph on his way down. He survived,
which makes Baumgartners plan
seem only marginally less crazy.
Red Bull is sponsoring Baumgartn-
ers jump and has set up a page, red-
bullstratos.com, to provide informa-
tion on
the mis-
sion.
The
sport
of orbi-
tal skydiving has
been increasingly fea-
tured in science fic-
tion, although once people who, like
Baumgartner and Kittinger, want to
see what its like to re-enter the atmo-
sphere hear that the real thing is ac-
tually possible, who knows what will
happen.
The fact that Baumgartner is actual-
ly being sponsored by a company to
perform this stunt is interesting. The
fact that there are actually people will-
ing to do it is slightly disturbing. For-
tunately, its relatively difficult to ob-
tain a balloon or aircraft that can ac-
tually reach that altitude, and the
equipment required to survive the fall
doesnt come cheap either.
That could soon change, however.
With commercial sub-orbital flights
beginning quite soon (next year, if Ri-
chard Bransons Virgin Galactic Space-
shipTwo keeps up its string of success-
ful test flights), and the relatively in-
expensive ticket cost (a mere
$200,000, as opposed to the millions it
used to cost), we may be poised to ush-
er in a newage of high-speed, high-alti-
tude travel perhaps well usher in a
new age of people jumping out of per-
fectly good spacecraft.

WASHINGTON
Squeezed by a tight job mar-
ket, young Americans have
suffered bigger income loss-
es than other age groups and
are less likely to be employed
than at any time since World
War II.
An analysis by the PewRe-
search Center, released to-
day, details the impact of the
recent recession on the atti-
tudes of a generationof most-
ly 20- and 30-somethings.
With government data
showing record gaps in em-
ployment between young
and old, a Pew survey found
that 41 percent of Americans
believe that younger adults
have been hit harder than
any other group, compared
with29 percent who say mid-
dle-aged Americans and 24
percent who point to seniors
65 and older.
Among young adults ages
18 to 34, only a third rated
their financial situation as
excellent or good, com-
pared with 54 percent for se-
niors age 65 and over. In
2004, before the recession
began, about half of both
young and older adults rated
their own financial situation
highly.
Young workers are on the
bottom of the ladder, and
during a recession like weve
had, its often hard for them
to hold on, said Kim Parker,
associate director of Pews
Social & Demographic
Trends project. Parker noted
that despite the challenges,
young adults were upbeat
about the future: Only 9 per-
cent said they didnt think
they wouldever have enough
money to live the life they
want, a share unchanged
from before the recession. In
contrast, 28 percent of adults
35andolder didnt anticipate
making enough in the future.
Jobs gap hits young
Workers in 20s, 30s suffer
bigger income losses than
other age groups.

EDWARDSVILLE Former custom-
ers of the Redners Warehouse Market
in the flood-damaged Mark Plaza have
moved on, but not very far.
Edwardsville resident and former
Redners shopper Cathy Wozniak has
taken her business to nearby Price
Chopper at the West Side Mall.
Weve been coming here since they
closed in the fall, she said.
After learning of the permanent clo-
sure Wozniak added, It looks like
well be coming here a bit longer now.
The Price Chopper store has taken
on its fair share of former Redners cus-
tomers after September flooding
caused severe water damage to both
the store and the stock inside.
Ive been shopping here ever
since, said Renee Jones of Edwards-
ville.
Jones said she is a casual shopper
who doesnt necessarily notice a differ-
ent between the two stores, but said
she preferred Redners.
I was just so used to going there
and seeing the same people, she said.
Some of those faces are now seen at
Redners in Pittston, after former em-
ployees at the Edwardsville location
were offered jobs there.
Its uncertain how many Redners
shoppers have followed.
Had roles been reversed and it was
the Pittston location that closed down,
a shopper there said a trip to Edwards-
ville would be out of the question.
We wouldnt go that far for our gro-
ceries, said Dupont resident Tom
Walsh.
Youd like to (stay loyal), he said.
But convenience has just as much to
do with it.
Though Redners has closed its
store there, some businesses have cho-
sen to rebuild at Mark Plaza. Seafood
chain Long John Silvers has already
reopened and Kmart is preparing to re-
open in the spring.
A Redners spokesman said Tuesday
the regional market chain may look for
an alternative location in the Edwards-
ville area, but has not yet identified a
site.

If the twentysomething guy from the
mailroom, your local waiter and hipster
music moguls all seem to be sporting the
same haircut trimmed buzz-cut short
on the sides, left long on the top and
swept back from the forehead its not
your imagination.
Its Boardwalk Empire. Or, more pre-
cisely, its a throwback haircut from Pro-
hibition-era America, reintroduced in all
its dapper disheveled-ness by Michael
Pitts James Jimmy Darmody character
on the Martin Scorsese HBO series.
Darmody met with an untimely end on
last months Season 2 finale, but those
who ply the tonsorial trade report that
the show helped make the retro-flavored
do the coif du jour among millennial
males.
Its been a popular cut for a good nine
months to a year now, says J.P. Mastey,
founder of the Baxter Finley Barber &
Shop on La Cienega Boulevard.
It started getting popular here around
the middle of the (shows) first season. A
lot of guys will kind of know who the
character is even if they dont know his
name. But, Mastey says, We know ex-
actly who theyre talking about.
Supercuts senior artistic director Mel-
anie Ash has noticed the same thing over
the last year and a half.
Most places around the country, the
style is slightly less exaggerated, Ash
says. Andthe more severe James Darmo-
dy lookis one were seeingstronger inour

HBO show
sparks edgy
new hairstyle
By ADAMTSCHORN
Los Angeles Times
If youre thinking about trying out the
latest trend in mens hairstyles, here are a
few pointers from the experts on how to
do the do:
What should I ask for? Some folks refer to
it as an undercut. Others call it the Jimmy,
the Darmody or the Michael Pitt. J.P. Mas-
tey, who owns the Baxter Finley Barber &
Shop, says requests even include the hair-
cut like the young guy with the limp on that
old-timey HBO series. Although most bar-
bers and stylists will probably know what
youre talking about, Supercuts senior artis-
tic director Melanie Ash offers a concise
description: Ask for a cut thats shorter
through the sides, clippered up all the way,
disconnected and left with length through
the top. Or take in a photo of the style.
How do I take care of it? The experts agree
that using some sort of hair product is key,
especially if the hair on top of the head is
left as long and swept back as dramat-
ically as that of Pitts character. The cuts
creator, Francesca Paris, uses American
Crews Grooming Cream to keep Jimmy
Darmodys hair in place.
How often should I come back? The rate at
which hair grows varies from person to
person (and even season to season, accord-
ing to Mastey), but most men make a return
clip trip every three to four weeks. A guy
opting for the more extreme version of the
Darmody with the sides clipped quite
short should expect to darken the door-
step of his barbershop about every two
weeks.
What if I dont have the head (or hair) to
carry it off? Michael Pitt could carry off the
Darmody coif because it was specifically
designed for him based on the mens hair-
styles in vogue in the 1920s. But if your
noggin doesnt make you a natural, a skilled
stylist can still help you achieve a Prohib-
ition-era vibe. I can taper up the sides to
give it a 1920s look, part it on the side and
put a little bit of product in it, Mastey says.
Youre going to look like maybe you could
be a character on Boardwalk Empire, but it
just wont be Jimmy Darmody. Even being
completely bald isnt a barrier. Ive been
designing wigs for Yourhairx, a company
that makes wigs for people who have alope-
cia or been through chemotherapy, said
Paris, whose former husband, Joseph Paris,
founded the company. Ive designed a
couple wigs where I cut them really close on
the side and have them long on the top.

ymbolized by every-
thing from paper
hearts and cardboard
cupids to decadent choco-
lates and diamond rings,
love, in all its forms, will get
its official due once again on
Tuesday.
Valentines Day is still a holiday
for the ages, withschool childrenex-
changing cards, candy and small
toys and older folks feeling the eu-
phoria of newlove or the comfort of
oldlove. But, somewouldsay, Valen-
tines Day, and even the whole ap-
proach to love, just isnt what it used
to be.
Remember, for example, good
old-fashioned courtship? Before
text-messaging and social network-
ing came along and changed the
game for everyone? Has it killed real
romance? What else has changed
when it comes to matters of the
heart in a modern world? And how
does the whole experience of Valen-
tines Day adjust itself as we age?

Classmates at Wyoming Valley

Remedy Allport, 7, agrees.

said.
It is about love and friends, but

p
ceive one in return. These days,
the cards usually come with bo-
nuses.
Though chocolates are nice, as
Emma Horsley, 6, who is bring-
ing candy in for her class, will at-
test, Valentine treats are taking a
different direction.
I got peace-signtattoos for my
Valentines, Eliana Parra, 6, said.
Susan Bartoli, a teacher at
Montgomery Avenue Elemen-
tary School in Exeter, said candy
treats have fallen by the wayside
in the past couple of years.
The kids are much more into
giving things like pencils and
stickers now, she said. Though
to them its really just about
showing friends they care.
Dating in the digital age
What about those well past the
age of trading multiple Valen-
tines and into the age where one
is all that matters?
Alove connection is a love con-
nection is a love connection, but
sophisticated technology has
dramaticallychangedtheprocess
of making one.
When you look at face-to-face
interactions andcontent of actual
communication, social network-
ing has driven it down, Dan
Kimbrough, assistant professor
of communications at Misericor-
dia University, said. Were at a
point now where 140 characters
is enough to get a point across to
someone.
The problem with such com-
munication is the loss of context,
whichis a hindrance tobuildinga
romantic relationship.
If I text someone or write on
their Facebook and theyre in a
badmoodwhenthey readit, they
might think Im being offensive
or mean or rude, Kimbrough
said. When youre face to face
you get all the visual, non-verbal
cues that get the real point
across.
But social networkingcanhave
its perks, too.
The etiquette rule in dating is
basically to make each other
comfortable, John Mellon, an
etiquette workshopinstructor for
the Guaranteed Placement Pro-
gramat Misericordia, said. This
is easier to do now. A person can
know details about an individual
immediately, making a first date
more comfortable because a per-
son already has a set of questions
in their mind that they want to
discuss.
It also helps in the case of a
date that has gone great.
Once a person has a date they
enjoyedthey dont have towait to
call, Mellon said, They can just
text or talk online. Youcanessen-
tially continue a date for another
two hours after its ended.
But what about pursuing
someone through total non-ver-
bal communication? It might be
easier to shoot a Facebook mess-
age or text a prospective dates
way, but is it good form?
A phone call would certainly
be best, Mellon said, but in
these times its absolutely social-
ly acceptable to ask someone out
on a date through text or mess-
aging online.
A second shot at love
Youarenever toooldtolove, or
to find new love. Several volun-
teers at the Senior Center in
Kingston have discovered this.
Many were married at one point,
lost their former spouses through
divorce or death, and came to
find love again.
Betty Lee Frusciante, 77, and
Hugh Rolf, 79, both of Swoyers-
ville, have been together for the
past 20 years, having met at a sin-
gles dance at the American Le-
gion in Wilkes-Barre.
We sang together at the
Woodlands for 15 years, Frus-
ciante said. He corrupted me.
She was so shy, Rolf said,
but I got her uponstagethat one
time, and that was it.
Margaret Craig and Jack Gra-
nahan, both 80 and of Swoyers-
ville, are the newest in love, as
friend Carolyn Tavella, 67, of
Plains Township put it. They
moved in together in September
after Granahan was forced to
move from his Forty Fort home
due to flooding.
She offered me a spot at her
place when I moved out, and I
never moved back in, Granahan
said.
For some folks in their twilight
years, modern love is like the old
days all over again.
Tavella and Frank Warunek,
72, of Dupont are self-proclaimed
soulmates who dated at a young-
er age, married other people and
eventually got back together
through a phone call from Waru-
nek on Tavellas 50th birthday.
I couldnt believe it was him,
the man I first met when I was
13, Tavella said. Im so happy
that hes back in my life.
The lively crew hangs out to-
gether at the senior center, where
all were more than happy to dis-
cuss their relationships.
Looking back from their first
major commitments to those
that exist today, each had advice
for the younger generation.
Its all about respect for one
another, Craig said.
You learn to keep your mouth
shut, Rolf joked. You also learn
that you need to have a sense of
humor and to let some argu-
ments pass by, as they arent real-
ly important.
You learn that you cant
changea person, not really, Frus-
ciante said, then jokingly added,
You simply tolerate them.
Each couple seemed to agree
on a crucial mindset guaranteed
to keep a relationship fresh and
an individual happy.
Age is a frame of mind, which
is one of my favorite sayings,
Rolf said.
Soif I findmymind, Ill let you
know how old I am.
No romance necessary
No matter how you look at it,
Valentines Day is a day to show
you care, Sarah Clarke, 45, of
Scranton, said. I dont care if its
to your mom, your boyfriend,
your dog. Its a fun little holiday
that requires nothingmore thana
box of chocolates and an I love
you.
You dont even have to be at-
tached, Melinda Gensel, 41, of
Scranton said.
When I was younger and sin-
gle, my girlfriends andI wouldgo
out that night together and cele-
brate who we were and what we
had in life. We didnt need a boy-
friend.
You love who you love, and
thats it, Clarke said. You
should be showing people that
every day, of course, but why not
add a card or some flowers to re-
ally get the point across?

prefer more of an extreme look,
where its much shorter through
the sides and longer and more
artsy on top.
The style perfectly suited
Pitts character and for good
reason, says the cuts creator,
Francesca Paris, who is in
charge of hair at Boardwalk
Empire.
For the character of Jimmy
Darmody, I wanted to create
something that was a little edgy,
sexy and a powerful look, and
when I was researching mens
hairstyles of the day, I noticed
that the popular style was short-
er on the sides and longer on the
top, Paris said. I wanted him
to have a James Cagney-esque
look about him. But Michael
(Pitt) has a natural boyish qual-
ity to his look, and his hair is nat-
urally wavy, and wavy hair tends
to project a softer demeanor. So
I immediately knew Id have to
straighten his hair to toughen
his image.
Mastey and Ash give the show
and Pitts character props
for bringing the style to the pub-
lic consciousness, but they, and
other industry observers, say
other factors also are at work.
One is the current pop-culture
embrace of all things 1920s and
30s, as exemplifiedinfilms such
as The Artist and Hugo and
fashion for spring.
Another is simply where men
happen to be in the pendulum
swing of personal grooming. I
think part of the appeal is that
for the last couple of years weve
really been seeing a trend to-
ward longer lengths and a little
more of a scruffier look, Ash
says.
And this is a very tailored, ex-
act cut. Its very clean and sharp,
so its a nice change.
Its not a coif every guy can
pull off. Youve got to have the
head shape and hairline for that
(cut), Mastey says. If your hair
is receding its not the same
look, and you wont be able to
slick it back the way (Pitt)
does.
When twentysomething Kim
Jong Un stepped into the lime-
light as NorthKoreas ruler a few
days before the new year, it was
hard not to notice his haircut:
The sides were clipped short
and the longer hair on top was
slicked back a bit, and according
to published reports, the barber-
shops of Pyongyang are abuzz
withrequests for what the North
Koreans are calling the youth
or ambition hairstyle.
Then again, perhaps theyre
all just fans of Boardwalk Em-
pire.

IMPORTANT NOTICE TOALLDAMA
TRASH CUSTOMERS
Due to the overwhelming positive response by DAMA solid waste and recycling
customers in the adoption of single-stream recycling, and to help manage the
increased volume of recyclable materials generated as a result of this innovative
collection method, effective the week of February 20, 2012, we will change the
collection of recycling from every other week to a weekly collection. The recycling
format will remain single-stream, however, you will now be able to place all of
your recycling to include paper, glass, plastic and metal cans, curbside in the same
container for collection every week. This change should help ease the burden on
both our customers and the DAMA solid waste division staff, and allow the program
to operate more effciently. During the month of January alone, DAMA collected
approximately 25,000 bags of trash and 144 tons of recycling from our residents.
Please remember the following program guidelines:
Trash & Recycling must be placed curbside by 6:00 AM on the day of your
collection. Trash must be placed in bags, no loose garbage.
There is a two bag, or two standard 33 gallon containers, limit on trash.
Additional trash must have extra bag stickers. Please place recycling curbside in
open containers or clear plastic bags.
Coal & wood ashes must be bagged or boxed, and marked ashes, as these are
removed at no charge to our residents and do not count against your bag limit.
Thank you for your patience and support of this program,

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I was
recently diagnosed
as gluten intolerant.
My question is, when
dining at a restau-
rant, while everyone
else is eating the
bread that is served,
is it acceptable to discreetly take a
few gluten-free crackers from my
purse and snack on them so Im not
starving while waiting for dinner?
My husband thought it was inap-
propriate, so I didnt take them. I did
ask the waiter if he had gluten-free
bread or crackers, but he didnt. I
have many medical issues. I try to
eat only what is healthy for me and
thought providing my own crackers
was a minor deal. What do you think?
Gluten Intolerant in Florida
Dear G.I.: Gluten intolerance can
cause serious digestive issues. Your
husband may have had a bad day
when he criticized you, because I see
nothing wrong with someone on a
restricted diet taking emergency ra-
tions in case a restaurant cant accom-
modate his or her special needs.
Gluten intolerance has gone un-
diagnosed in many people, but in
recent years food manufacturers have
created many products that are safe
for them. Accommodating a customer
who is gluten intolerant shouldnt be
an insurmountable problem if the res-
taurant is asked in advance.
Dear Abby: I was standing in front of
a restaurant with my mother-in-law
and a group of relatives when she
felt up my back and backside. We
were facing the others when she put
her hand around my back, first side-
ways and then all around until she
got down to my rear end. It felt like
she was searching for something, but
the weather was warm and my blouse
was very thin, so I couldnt have hid-
den anything. When she reached my
behind, she pressed her thumb hard
on my hipbone and rubbed in a circu-
lar motion.
I feel extremely violated because
her hand should not be anywhere
near that region. My husband says I
misinterpreted what she did, but he
has no explanation. I think her behav-
ior was incestuous! When she visits,
she also insists on sleeping in the
master bedroom. Am I overreacting?
Violated in Southern California
Dear Violated: Unless your moth-
er-in-law insists on sleeping between
you and her son when she comes to
visit, I do think youre overreacting.
What she did was give you a back
rub. In most families, a gesture like
that is one of affection. Lighten up!
Dear Abby: Im planning my sons
bar mitzvah, and my ex-husband
hasnt lifted a finger to help me. I
received two small checks for his por-
tion of the guests who will attend.
My question is, should I put his
name on the invitation? Or do I just
put my name on it since Im the one
hosting and putting the party togeth-
er? I want to do the right thing, but I
also want it made clear that I did the
planning myself.
Mitzvah Mama in New York
Dear Mitzvah Mama: Be benevolent.
For the sake of your child, include
your ex-husbands name on the invita-
tion. It isnt necessary to omit it so
that you can get the credit. All you
need to do is confide in one yenta
that your sons father is a schnorrer
and word will get around. Trust me.
DEAR ABBY

To receive a collection of Abbys most
memorable and most frequently re-
quested poems and essays, send a busi-
ness-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus
check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in

447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage
is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). You
think you are explaining yourself
well. What you cant account for
is the level of distraction that
others encounter. Your patience
will be required.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youll
do all you can to maintain an
appealing atmosphere. You wont
let anyone encroach on your
space, freedom and peace, and
youll protect those you love
from invasion, as well.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21).
Movement is essential to your
growth process. As you physi-
cally move through your envi-
ronment, you mentally move
through obstacles, troubles, fear
and anything else holding you
back.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). The
one who catches you off guard
also captures your interest,
attention and affection. You may
find yourself thinking of this per-
son well into the evening.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Life is like
rock climbing. When you know
you have a strong measure of
security in your connection with
the rock, it is easier for you to
swing out and savor an adven-
turous piece of sky.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You have
a gift for making people cooper-
ate, even when they think the
task at hand is tedious. You help
everyone see the benefit to liv-
ing in an orderly, cheerful and
efficient manner.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Anyone
whos achieved greatness knows
that a lot of effort, forethought,
insight, planning and practice go
into turning the ordinary into the
extraordinary.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You can
stroke a persons ego without
doing what the person is asking
you to do. You have a clever way
of dealing with the one who is
notoriously hard to manage.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Youll wonder at the curious
turnarounds of the day. For
instance, enjoyment turns out
to be more work than working.
Youre determined to make the
best of things.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
Youll be in the mood to initiate
the action. Small wont count.
Sweeping, grand gestures will
go over well, if only because not
many people have the guts to
make such a strong statement.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You
love it when an idea comes
together, and right now youre
working on one. That stated, its
the practical moves you make
now that will bring you the most
satisfaction.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20).
Arguments will shake up the day,
and the future will seem uncer-
tain. Your powers of empathy
will be tested, and youll come
through. If anyone can find a
compromise, you can!
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Feb. 9). You
have a killer instinct for business.
Youll make more money for
doing the same amount of work.
A turn of events in March may
be hard to assimilate at first,
but ultimately its what allows
your heart to be most fulfilled.
You love a mystery, and the one
in your own family tree will be
riveting. Aries and Virgo people
adore you. Your lucky numbers
are: 4, 25, 2, 15 and 30.

NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARINGS
Proposed Amendments to Air Quality Regulations
(25 Pa. Code Chapters 121, 129 and 130)
Flexible Packaging Printing Presses, Offset Lithograph-
ic Printing Presses, Letterpress Printing Presses and
Adhesives, Sealants, Primers and Solvents
The Environmental Quality Board (Board) will hold three public
hearings for the purpose of accepting comments on the pro-
posed rulemaking to amend 25 Pa. Code Chapters 121, 129 and
130 (relating to general provisions; standards for sources; and
standards for products) to add requirements for the control of
emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from flexible
packaging printing presses, offset lithographic printing presses,
letterpress printing presses and adhesives, sealants, primers
and solvents.
The proposed amendments to Chapter 129 will apply to the
owner and operator of a flexible packaging printing press, offset
lithographic printing press, or letterpress printing press, if the
total actual VOC emissions from all flexible packaging printing
presses, offset lithographic printing presses, or letterpress print-
ing presses, including related cleaning activities, at the facility
are equal to or greater than 15 pounds (6.8 kilograms) per day
or 2.7 tons per 12-month rolling period, before consideration of
controls or if an individual heatset web offset lithographic print-
ing press, an individual heatset web letterpress printing press or
flexographic printing press has potential emissions from the
dryer, before consideration of add-on controls, of at least 25
tons per year of VOC from inks, coatings, adhesives or a combi-
nation of these materials.
The proposed rulemaking would amend 129.51(a) (relating to
general) to extend its coverage to the owner and operator of a
flexible packaging printing press, offset lithographic printing
press or letterpress printing press, or combination of these
press types, covered by this proposed rulemaking and provide
an alternative method for the owner and operator of an affected
facility to achieve compliance with air emission limits.
The proposed rulemaking would amend 129.67 (relating to
graphic arts systems) to provide for the proposed requirements
that would apply to the owner and operator of a flexible packag-
ing printing press under 129.67a (relating to control of VOC
emissions from flexible packaging printing presses).
The proposed rulemaking would add 129.67a and 129.67b
(relating to control of VOC emissions from offset lithographic
printing presses and letterpress printing presses) to establish
VOC content limit, add-on control and work practice standard
requirements for the owner and operator of an affected flexible
packaging printing press, offset lithographic printing press or let-
terpress printing press, or a combination of these press types in
this Commonwealth to reduce VOC emissions from the use and
application of inks, coatings, adhesives, fountain solutions and
cleaning materials.
The proposed rulemaking would amend 121.1 (relating to defi-
nitions) to add 17 new terms and definitions and revise the defi-
nition of two existing terms. The proposed rulemaking would
also include amendments to the recently promulgated regula-
tions for adhesives, sealants, primers and solvents in Chapters
129 and 130 (40 Pa. B. 7340, December 25, 2010) to clarify the
applicability of the requirements of 129.77 and 130.703 (relat-
ing to control of emissions from the use or application of adhe-
sives, sealants, primers and solvents; and exemptions and
exceptions) to the adhesives used or applied on or with the print-
ing presses proposed for regulation under this rulemaking.
The proposed rulemaking, if published as a final-form regulation
in the Pennsylvania Bulletin, will be submitted to the U.S. Environ-
mental Protection Agency as a revision to the State Implementa-
tion Plan.
