SCRANTON Following a
five-month self-imposed morato-
riumon closing any facilities, the
U.S. Postal Service announced
Thursday it would move forward
with plans to close more about
250 mail processing centers, in-
cluding the Scranton facility on
Stafford Avenue.
Just a week ago, U.S. Sen. Bob
Casey, D-Scranton, stood in front
of his hometown center and im-
plored Postmaster General Pa-
trick R. Donahoe to hold off on
any closures while Congress
worked to overhaul the postal
service through legislation. The
center employs 308 people.
The moratorium about to ex-
pire was agreeduponlast year be-
tween the Office of the Postmas-
ter General and a group of U.S.
senators to give Congress time to
study and enact legislation to
shape the future of Postal Service
operations.
Casey has been one of the lead-
ers of the efforts and though the
Senate passed the 21st Century
Postal Service Act on April 25 by
a 62-37 tally. The House has yet
to act on it.

Luzerne County governments
more than1,000 retirees wont re-
ceive cost-of-living pension in-
creases, the county retirement
board decided Thursday.
The increase, tied to a percent-
age of the Consumer Price Index,
would have forced county tax-
payers to pay $500,000 to
$600,000 more annually for the
next decade, county retirement
coordinator Rick Hummer told
the board.
The law requires the board to
consider a cost-of-living increase
every three years, thoughapprov-
al isnt mandated. The last in-
crease in 2008 is costing the fund
$4.76 millionover10 years, Hum-
mer said.
Councilman Eugene Kelleher,
who was selected as board chair-
man Thursday, made the motion
to deny it.
Our county is ina financial po-
sition where we just cant afford
it, Kelleher said.
Three of the five remaining
board members concurred

WILKES-BARRE An attor-
ney and a Luzerne County judge
on Thursday questioned why it
took the District Attorneys Of-
fice several weeks to hire a psy-
chiatrist to review a case against
a suspect charged with killing his
great-grandfather.
Senior Judge Joseph Augello
on March 9 prohibited prosecu-
tors from using a report by Dr.
John OBrien that cited state-
ments Cody
Leemadeabout
the deadly
shooting.
Lee was 16
years old when
state police at
Wyoming al-
leged he car-
ried out a plan to kill his great-
grandfather, Herbert Lee, 80, in-
side their home on Meeker Out-
let Road in Lake Township on
Dec. 9, 2009.
State police arrested Lee on
Dec. 10, after he spent hours in
the cold wearing minimal cloth-
ing. He allegedly made state-
ments to investigators about the
shooting before he was charged
with criminal homicide.
Lees attorneys, Peter Paul Ols-
zewski Jr. and Melissa Scartelli,
convinced Augello that Lee was
not properly cared for by investi-
gators after his arrest, and stated
Lee may have been suffering hy-
pothermia when he was ques-
tioned.
Augello prohibited prosecu-
tors from using Lees statements
in the case.
Olszewski andScartelli are try-
ingtotransfer thecasefromadult
court to juvenile court.
The case has been reassigned
to Judge Joseph Sklarosky Jr.
Assistant district attorneys
Shannon Crake and Mamie Phil-
lips told Sklarosky on Thursday
that countyDistrict AttorneySte-
fanie Salavantis last week ap-
proved the necessary funds to
hire a psychiatrist to replace
OBrien.
Olszewski asked why it took
Salavantis nine weeks to make
the decision to hire a psychia-
trist. Olszewski further stated
two letters he sent to Salavantis
about the Lee case were ignored.
I didnt even get a response,
he said.
Salavantis did not return a
message for comment Thursday
afternoon.
Sklarosky also questioned why
it took the District Attorneys Of-
fice nine weeks to decide to hire a
psychiatrist to replace OBrien.
The delay from March 9 until
the date of the motion on Mon-
day remains unexplained, Skla-
rosky said.
Crake and Phillips on Monday
filed a motion to schedule Thurs-
days hearing.
Ahearing to decide if the hom-
icide case stays in adult court or
is moved to juvenile court was
scheduled on May 29, but was
continued to July 9 upon the re-
quest of Crake and Phillips.
Ill tell you this right now,
there will be nomore continuanc-
es, Sklarosky told the prosecu-
tors.
Lee remains housed at a male
treatment center in Latrobe,
Westmoreland County.

WILKES-BARRE The union
representing Lake-Lehman
School District teachers and sup-
port staff has taken a three-
pronged approach to stopping
the district fromswitching insur-
ance providers. They include:
Seeking an injunction froma
Luzerne County court judge.
Filing a union grievance to
force arbitration on the issue.
Filing an unfair labor prac-
tice complaint with the Pennsyl-
vania Labor Relations Board.
If all of those fail, the union has
a fourth option: We notified the
district that if they proceed with
this it will be an unlawful lock-
out, said John Holland, Pennsyl-
vania State Education Associ-
ation regional director. The con-
tract has a no-lockout clause.
Holland wouldnt elaborate,
but in the past such a move has
opened the door for other legal
action by the union, including
Crestwood teachers failing to
show up for work one day after
claiming a lockout during a 2005
labor dispute. A judge ordered
the teachers back to work the
next day.
The Lehman dispute centers
on a plan by the district to leave
the Northeast Pennsylvania
School District Health Trust, a
consortiumof districts formed in
1999 to reduce insurance rates.
The trust requires one-years
notice before a district can with-
draw, and Lake-Lehman has sent
notice that it intends towithdraw
after the end of the next fiscal
year: June 30, 2013.
But the district plans to get
dental and vision coverage
through the trust this coming
school year, using another broker
for medical coverage. That way, it
is not actually leaving the trust
this year, but is shifting the bulk
of coverage out of the trust.
Withdrawing from the trust
violates the union contract, vio-
lates the public employee rela-
tions act and it violates the trust
agreement, Holland said, con-
tending the union must be con-
sulted and must approve any
change in insurance coverage.
Attorney for the district John
Audi countered the teacher con-
tract calls for the district to pro-
vide a comparable plan; it does
not say identical, it says compara-
ble. He said the plan is compara-
ble to that provided through the
trust, and saves the district $1
million the first year.
Holland rejected that claim, in-
sisting the new coverage is vast-
ly inferior.
The unionis seekinga court in-
junction, a tactic that worked
when Greater Nanticoke Area
and Northwest Area tried to
leave the trust in 2005. The two
sides met in chambers Thursday
with county Judge David Lupas,
who set up a hearing June 6 on
the injunction. Audi and Holland
said they are confident of prevail-
ing in the dispute.
In a bit of irony, Audi was a
union attorney in the 2005 dis-
pute, and took the same legal ac-
tion the union is taking now.

Luzerne County has filed
paperwork stating its intent to
sue a records company alleg-
edly overpaid by the county.
A forensic audit earlier this
year concluded the countys
record improvement fund paid
the company Wayne, Pa.-
based LRW Solutions Group,
also known as Little Red Wag-
on $856,000 more than au-
thorized by its contract.
Former county Clerk of
Courts Robert Reilly, who
pleaded guilty as part of the
federal corruption probe, had
authorized payments to LRW
for consulting work without
consent from fellow record im-
provement committee mem-
bers, county officials have
said.
Reilly has said he didnt ob-
tain a public vote on all expen-
ditures because other records
committee members failed to
attend meetings a claim that
some members denied.
County Manager Robert
Lawton said the one-page writ
was filed in the prothonotarys
office because were preserv-
ing our options. He said he
will brief county council when
the administration reaches a
final recommendation.
County assistant solicitor
Steve Menn said paperwork
had to be filed before the stat-
ute of limitations expired.
Menn said the county is await-
ing the results of an investiga-
tion.
The U.S. Secret Service is
investigating past payments
to LRW.
LRW representative Eric
Coombs has said his company
did nothing inappropriate,
and it completed all work au-
thorized by Reilly.
County Prothonotary Car-
olee Medico Olenginski has
urged the county to sue in an
attempt to recoup the over-
payment.
Medico Olenginski said
many concerns about pay-
ments to LRW have not been
addressed, including missing
receipts and a lack of evidence
that some tasks were complet-
ed.
We should be able to recov-
er at least some of this money.
To just walk away would not
be fair to taxpayers, she said.
The payments to LRW large-
ly drained the record improve-
ment fund, she said. As of
March, $115,000 was in the re-
cord improvement fund,
which comes from a fee on re-
corded deeds.
Much of the work involved
shelving and organization at
the Thomas C. Thomas build-
ing. County officials want to
get records out of that Wilkes-
Barre structure because it was
deemed inappropriate for doc-
ument storage, with temper-
ature extremes and leaks.
Because of this, we are the
only county in the entire state
that does not have a compre-
hensive records retention plan
and proper storage. Other
counties used their money
wisely, Medico Olenginski
said.

NANTICOKE Greater Nan-
ticoke Area School Board mem-
bers voted unanimously Thurs-
day night to raise the tax millage
rate by 2.5 percent.
This would raise the districts
millage rate from the current
9.9295 to 10.1807 if adopted as
part of the final 2012-2013 bud-
get. A mill is $1 for every $1,000
in assessed property value.
The proposed final budget
was set at $24.25 million.
According to Al Melone, the
districts business manager, the
increase represents about $20 of
additional taxes per year for the
owner of a propertyvaluedat the
districts average of $78,610.
Melone said the district is in
good financial shape and he
praised the board and Superin-
tendent Anthony Perrone for
their fiscal responsibility.
But he also said the tax in-
crease will generate only about
$130,000. The projectedrevenue
shortfall is $872,307.
That doesnt take us out of
the woods. We have to keep find-
ingways toreduce cost, he said.
Melone said the district will
have to dip into its fund balance
to make up the rest of the short-
fall.
After Melones presentation,
board member Tony Prushinski
blamed Gov. Tom Corbetts cuts
in state education spending for
the GNA budget shortfall.
This is Gov. Corbetts tax in-
crease. He raised taxes in Nanti-
coke tonight, he said.
Melone also reported a rene-
gotiated agreement with Nanti-
coke city for tax collection
would reduce the districts cost
from $32,000 to $15,000.
The board also accepted a bid
for re-roofing the high school
gym and auditorium at a cost of
$269,130.
In other business, the board
appointed Ken Bartuska as ath-
letic director for the district. He
will continue coaching the varsi-
ty basketball team.
Also, a large group of seniors
presented their request for an
outdoor graduationceremony. A
representative of the group said
the outdoor venue would be
more comfortable and large fam-
ilies would be able to attend to-
gether.
Perrone said the board would
have to discuss the students re-
quest.

assets is worth $20 million upfront, but
according to one city Parking Authority
member, the expert hired to evaluate
those assets feels the number should be
way lower.
The city will release the Request for
Qualifications document today as Phase
1of the planto lease the citys parking as-
sets moves forward.
But Leighton will not release the re-
port compiled by Desman Associates,
the Chicago based parking consulting
firmretained by the city Parking Author-
ity.
I cant give you the number that Des-
man came up with, but let me just say it
wasnt evencloseto$20million, saidEd
Katarsky, board member and a financial
analyst.
Drew McLaughlin, the citys adminis-
trative coordinator, said the RFQ will be
a compilationof the opinions of Desman,
Fox Rothschild and Goals Consulting.
The minimum bid the city is seeking
is $20 million, he said. Any prospective
bidder will have todotheir ownfinancial
analysis. Were not going to comment on
what Desman said or didnt say.
McLaughlin said the Desman analysis
was provided during a conference call
Wednesday afternoon.
Theres no physical report, he said.
We took what Desman said and what
the other consultants said in putting to-
gether theRFQ. Theres nosoleauthor of
the RFQ.
When asked what the city would do if
nobidder iswillingtocomeupwitha$20
million upfront payment, McLaughlin
said, Well cross bridge when we come
to it.
He said the RFQ is targeting a 30-year
lease for the $20 million. He said a 50-
year lease wouldrequire a higher upfront
payment, but he wouldnt disclose that
amount.
McLaughlin said the RFQ will be sent
out todaytoprospectivebidders togauge
what interest there is in leasing the citys
2,113 garage spaces, 160 surface lot
spaces and 800 parking meters.
Hesaidthe$20millionfigurehadbeen
recommended by the consultants re-
tainedby the authority Fox Rothschild,
the Philadelphia law firm, and Goals
Consulting, ownedbyformer cityadmin-
istrator J.J. Murphy. Murphys brother,
Patrick, is a partner in Fox Rothschild.
Whatever the upfront payment is, $8
million would come off the top to retire
remaining indebtedness on the intermo-
dal and other city garages. The consult-
ing fees paid to Wohlstetters firm, Des-
man and J.J. Murphys Goals Consulting
also would be reimbursed.

In the yard of a Noxen residence stood
a hungry black bear.
Nearby was a sunroom with a chest
freezer and a bag of birdseed inside.
Standing between the bear and the
cache of food was the glass door to the
sunroom.
For the bear, it was only a minor obsta-
cle.
On May 9 the Pennsylvania Game
Commissions Northeast Region Office
in Dallas received a call from a Noxen
resident about a bear that had broken
through the bottom of a glass door, en-
tered the sunroomand took frozen meat
from a chest freezer.
The bear also ransacked a trash can
containing leftovers but it didnt gain ac-
cess to the main part of the house. The
homeowner wasnt home at the time.
Its unique, but sometimes these
things happen, said Wildlife Conserva-
tion Officer Victor Rosa, who responded
to the call in Wyoming County. The
bear broke the glass on the door, but
there was minimal damage.
Its unusual for a bear to go through
so much effort to get into a house.
But not unheard of.
Five years ago, WCODave Allen, who
covers part of Luzerne County, respon-
ded to a bear call at the Stage Coach Inn
restaurant in Drums. Abear had entered
thekitchen, removedalargeboxof Gold-
fish fromthe pantry and went outside to
eat the crackers in the parking lot.
There was an old door with a loose
screen, and the bear stood there looking
inside, Allen said. The cook was cook-
ing in the kitchen, turned around and
saw the bear and yelled at it.
When he yelled, the screen fell out of
the door and the bear walked inside.
Allen arrived to find the bear eating
the Goldfish in the parking lot. A loud
bang from a thunderstorm scared the
bear away, he said, and Allen never
caught it in a trap he set at the restau-
rant.
Close encounters between bears and
people peak in the spring, according to
PGCinformationandeducationsupervi-
sor Bill Williams.
In the past week, the PGCs region of-
fice received 48 calls regarding bear
complaints that were referred to WCOs.
Williams saidapproximately three times
that many calls are received about bears
but are handled by dispatchers.
In every case the main factor behind
the encounter is food, Williams said.
Topping the list of bear attractants are
birdfeeders, followed by garbage and pet
food left outside.
We try to emphasize the bears are be-
ing attracted for a reason, Williams
said. If youremove that foodsource, the
bears have no reason to be there.
Birdfeeders can be a difficult issue,
Williams said, because some people en-
joy seeing birds and dont want to stop
feeding them.
They just want the bears removed,
he said. Bringing the feeders in at night
may help a little bit, but birds will kick
feed onto the ground during the day and

WILKES-BARRE No longer will
Capts. Doug and Patty Richwine worry
about where to find the money to bal-
ance the budget this year for the Salva-
tion Army.
The annual community dinner held
Thursday night filled the charitys
plate, raising $150,125 and provided
much-needed funding for its Kirby
Health Center Family House, a transi-
tional housing program for families.
The Salvation Army also honored
ChuckandMaryParente withits Com-
munity Service Award, and Mary and
Allen Erwine with the Others Award.
Approximately 430 people attended
the dinner at the Best Western Genetti
Hotel & Conference Center and the
Richwines delivered a heartfelt thank
you and goodbye to them. The couple,
both pastors in the Salvation Army,
came here five years ago and will leave
next month to head another chapter in
Milton.
Well, you did it. I can truly say God
has blessed us, said Patty Richwine
when she announced the amount
raised. She singled out Bob Tambur for
leading the dinner committee respon-
sible for the event.
Richwines husband shared her joy
and relief in being able to balance the
$1.2 million budget.
Every year I come to this dinner and
every year we make our goal, said
Doug Richwine. I will never forget this
valley. It is a wonderful, giving valley.
He encouraged the audience to con-
tinue being generous, saying, Keep
giving because times are tough.
The families who stay in the transi-
tional housing provided by the Salva-
tion Army need to know people care
about them, said Mary Erwine. To-
night you have proven that someone
cares, she said.
The Erwines were honored for their
extraordinary spirit of service to oth-
er, said Lt. Col. Donald Lance, who
presented the Others award. The
owners of Erwine Home Health &Hos-
pice Inc. in Kingston have supported
numerous projects and programs

WILKES-BARRE Plains Township
resident Dawn Bozek, 42, admitted she
was naive about Multiple Sclerosis
when she was first diagnosed in 2003.
By participating in the MS walk Sat-
urday, she hopes to raise awareness of
the disease and treatments available.
About 400,000 Americans have MS,
and about 200 newcases are diagnosed
every week, according to the Multiple
Sclerosis Society. The disease affects
the central nervous system, causing
symptoms such as numbness in limbs
and/or paralysis, slurringof speechand
loss of vision.
On Saturday, the annual MS Walk
will be held starting at the Martz Am-
phitheater in Kirby Park in Wilkes-
Barre, and proceed into the downtown
area.
Bozek said when
she first noticed
numbness in her legs,
she was not too con-
cerned. Then one
morning, about 10
years ago, she woke
up for work and she
could not feel her legs. Her boyfriend
pinchedher legandshecouldnot feel it.
He called my mom, she said.
A self-proclaimed big baby when it
comes to needles and doctors, Bozek
went with her mother to see their fam-
ily physician.
I just thought it was an enflamed
nerve or something like that, she said.
I thought he would give me a pill for
it.
Instead of a pill, she walked out of the
doctors office withanorder for anMRI.
This lead to further testing, including a
spinal tap, Bozek said. The final diag-
nosis was MS.
I did not know what MS was, she
said. I though, OK, another pill.
To her dismay, Bozek learned the MS
treatments for her are by injection only.
I had to overcome my fear of nee-
dles, she said. It was hard.
Over a period of time, she began not-
icing an increasing problem with her
right leg.
It was not coming with me when I
walked, she said.
Walking became harder and harder
for her.

from the Al Beech
West Side Food Pantry
As one of the recipients of the Letter
Carriers Food Drive on May 12, 2012, we
would like to thank all of the West Side
residents who donated food to that drive.
Your generosity was truly overwhelming!
AL BEECH WEST SIDE FOOD PANTRY, KINGSTON
DALLAS TWP. The Back
Mountain Community Partner-
ship approved a budget Thurs-
day for a planned regional emer-
gency management center.
Lehman Township received a
$975,000 gaming fund grant on
behalf of the partnership in
March for a regional emergency
management agency facility to
be located in a former medical
building off Route 118.
The partnership initially re-
quested $1.2 million for the pro-
ject. Cuts were made to admin-
istrative fees; engineering, per-
mitting and legal fees and new-
construction costs.
A committee of partnership
members met with emergency
management agency officials to
discuss the budget, and the
group agreed to increase the
amount of equipment to be lo-
cated at the site. This includes
having trailers packed with
equipment to increase efficien-
cy during emergency situations.
Another major change to the
project includes the elimination
of apolebarninfavor of building
anadditiontotheexistingbuild-
ing. Chairman James Reino Jr.
said the measure saves money,
increases securityandwill make
the site more efficient.
In other matters, Kingston
Township Supervisor Jeffrey
Box asked the partnership to
consider collectively urging
state officials to move forward
with a corridor study that was
requestednearly10 years ago on
state Routes 309 and 415.
Box said Kingston Township
received a draft of the study a
few years ago, but it was never
finalized by the Pennsylvania
Department of Transportation.
He saidthe study wouldbe a key
factor in scheduling the roads
on PennDOTs Transportation
Improvement Program project
list.
Supervisor Mike Prokopchak
of Franklin Township said he
had called several state officials
to discuss the Prevailing Wage
Act and many did not return his
messages.
He said the proposed legisla-
tion to reform the act has not
been acted upon in the legisla-
ture and the current laws are
hurting municipalities, school
districts and taxpayers.
The current prevailing wage
law, passedin1961, requires that
workers ongovernment projects
exceeding$25,000bepaida rate
set by the state secretary of La-
bor and Industry rather than a
number based on local market
rates.
House Bill 1329 would set the
project rate at $185,000 to corre-
spond with market inflation.
House Bill 1685 would require
the secretary of Labor and In-
dustry to develop a uniform list
of worker classification.
Prokopchak told supervisors
that according to the National
Bureau of Labor and Statistics,
$25,000 in 1963 equals $187,411
in current dollars due to infla-
tion.
He said many legislators are
unsure of the bills because of
concern about labor unions.

DUNMORE Having lost his
battle to obtain a stay of a Federal
Reserve order, Lackawanna
County businessman Louis De-
Naples has resignedfromhis posi-
tiononthe boardof First National
Community Bancorp.
DeNaples resigned from the
board effective May12, according
to a filing with the Security and
Exchange Commission.
Ina letter attachedto the filing,
DeNaples said the resignation
was made with protest, and that
he will continue
to fight to re-
store his posi-
tion on the
board and his
interests in
First National
Community
Bank of Dun-
more.
Thedecisionbyfederal regula-
tors to force my resignation, prior
to the resolution of my pending
appeal, is unjust and not support-
ed by the law, DeNaples said in
the letter. My counsel and I be-
lieve that the federal appellate
courts will, after consideration of
the merits of my position, strike
down the Federal Reserves deci-
sion and direct my immediate re-
instatement to the board.
The board of governors of the
Federal Reserve in April ordered
DeNaples to resign from the
board and to give up his controll-
inginterests inFNCBbasedonan
agreement DeNaples reached
with Dauphin County prosecu-
tors in 2009.
DeNaples was charged with
perjury for allegedly lying to
Pennsylvania gaming officials
who were investigating his suita-
bility to hold a casino license.
Prosecutors withdrew the charge
after DeNaples agreed to transfer
ownership of the Mount Airy Ca-
sino and Resort to other family
members.
The Federal Reserve maintains
DeNaples had entered a pre-trial
diversion program, which would
make him ineligible to serve on a
bankboard. DeNaples challenged
that ruling, but several appellate
courts upheld the decision.
DeNaples had asked the U.S.
District Court of Appeal for the
District of Columbia to issue a
stay until all his appeals are ex-
hausted. The court denied that
motion on May 10.
In his letter, DeNaples said his
resignation was particularly diffi-
cult because he has always acted
in the best interest of the bank.
I helped the company and the
bank grow and prosper, DeNa-
ples said. In doing so, we were
able to create a strong and locally
oriented bank that we could be
proudof andthat employedmany
people and that met the banking
needs of the communities in
which it operates.

Suicide bombers attack
A
group of suicide bombers armed
with explosive-laden vests, auto-
matic weapons and rocket propelled
grenades stormed a government com-
pound Thursday in western Afghan-
istan, killing at least seven people,
officials said.
One of attackers first blew himself up
at the gate of the governors complex in
Farah province, then three others
fought their way inside, said Raouf
Ahmadi, the regional police spokes-
man.
An ensuing two-hour gunbattle with
the police left all the attackers dead,
Ahmadi said. He said six policemen
and one civilian were also killed in the
attack, while another 12 people were
wounded.
BEDFORD, N.Y.
Mary Kennedy hanged self
The estranged wife of Robert Kenne-
dy Jr. hanged herself at her home in
suburban New York.
Mary Richardson Kennedy, 52, an
architect known for her philanthropic
and environmental work who also was
hit with drug and alcohol charges in
recent years, was found dead Wednes-
day afternoon on the familys property
in Bedford.
The Westchester County medical
examiners office said after an autopsy
Thursday that she died of asphyxiation
due to hanging. A person familiar with
the investigation into her death says
that authorities have concluded that
her death was a suicide.
Her husband, Robert Kennedy Jr., a
prominent environmental lawyer and
the son of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy, had
filed for a divorce in 2010. The two had
married in 1994 and had four children
together. The divorce case was still
pending.

rain as people watch Wednesday dur-
ing training for his walk over Niagara
Falls in Niagara Falls, N.Y.
NEW YORK Like the
King of Pop or the Queen of
Soul, Donna Summer was
bestowed a title fitting of
musical royalty the Queen
of Disco.
Yet unlike Michael Jackson
or Aretha Franklin, it was a
designation she wasnt com-
fortable embracing.
I grew up on rock n roll,
Summer once said.
Indeed, as disco boomed
then crashed in a single dec-
ade in the 1970s, Summer,
the beautiful voice and face of
the genre with pulsating hits
like I Feel Love, Love to
Love You Baby and Last
Dance, would continue to
make hits incorporating the
rock roots she so loved. One
of her biggest hits, She
Works Hard for the Money,
came in the early 1980s and
relied on a smoldering guitar
solo as well as Summers
booming voice.
Yet it was with her disco
anthems that she would have
the most impact in music,
and its how she was remem-
bered Thursday as news
spread of her death at age 63.
Her family released a state-
ment saying she died Thurs-
day morning and they are at
peace celebrating her extraor-
dinary life and her continued
legacy.
The family did not disclose
the cause of death.
She won a Grammy for
best rock vocal performance
for Hot Stuff, a fiery guitar-
based song that represented
her shift from disco to more
rock-based sounds, and cre-
ated another kind of anthem
with She Works Hard for the
Money, this time for wom-
ens rights.
Summer, real name LaDon-
na Adrian Gaines, was born
in 1948 in Boston. She was
raised on gospel music and
became the soloist in her
church choir by age 10.
Before disco, she had al-
ready reinvented herself
several times. She sang Mo-
town songs with local groups
in Boston, then dropped out
of school in the late 1960s
and switched to pyschedelic
rock after hearing Janis Jo-
plin. An attempt to get a part
in the musical Hair led her
to get the principal role in
Munich. She stayed in Ger-
many for five years, worked in
other produc-
tions and
modeled.

LOS ANGELES The United
States has reached a historic tipping
point with Latino, Asian, mixed-
race and African-American births con-
stituting a majority of births for the
first time, the U.S. Census Bureau re-
ported Thursday.
Minorities made up about 2 million,
or 50.4 percent, of the births in the 12-
month period ending July 2011,
enough to create the milestone. The
latest figure was up from 49.5 percent
in the 2010 census.
The racial andethnic shift was anex-
pected, but still important, turning
point for the nation, whose economic
and political elites remain essentially
white and primarily male. The new
numbers indicate that the upcoming
generations will be more diverse and
could have an increasingly broader
view of issues such as immigration
reform that are based on race and
ethnicity. There will also be cultural
changes as therehavebeeninrecent
years, with foods, music and ideas
from Latino cultures, for example,
spreading into the mainstream.
The newnumbers alsoraise some in-
teresting questions about, and chal-
lenges for, the upcoming generations.
Theyll have to deal with non-race-
basedissues suchas the federal budget
deficit and the social services needed
for an aging population.
Thursdays Census Bureau numbers
showa continuing graying of America,
as the nations medianage rose slightly
because of growth in the older-than-65
population, especially in the subset of
those older than 85. With the overall
number of children younger than 18
declining, and Americans living long-
er, fewer people will have to fund more
benefits or find some other political
solution. Race and ethnicity could also
play a role in the generational cleavage

Kathy Watson voted Republican in
2008 and believes the government has
noright tellingAmericans toget health
insurance. Nonetheless, she says shed
be dead if it werent for President Ba-
rack Obamas health care law.
Now the Florida small businesswo-
man is worried the Supreme Court will
strike down her lifeline. Under the law,
Watson and nearly 62,000 other unin-
surable patients are getting coverage
through a little-known program for
people who have been turned away by
insurance companies because of pre-
existing medical conditions.
Without it, I would have been dead
onMarch2, Watsonsaidof thePre-Ex-
isting Condition Insurance Plan,
known as PCIP. Thats when she was
hospitalizedfor alife-threateningrespi-
ratory infection.
Its not clear howthe Supreme Court
will rule on Obamas law, but Watsons
case illustrates the potential impact of
tyingeverythinginthefar-reachingleg-
islation to the fate of one provision, the
unprecedented requirement that most
Americans carry health insurance.
The laws opponents say if that insur-
ance mandate is found to be unconsti-
tutional, the rest of the lawshould also
go, since courts should not be picking
and choosing policy. The administra-
tion defends the insurance require-
ment but says if the court decides to
overturn it, most of the rest of the law
should stay.
State officials who administer the
federal pre-existing condition plan in
27 states are trying to make fallback ar-
rangements in case the law is invali-
dated and coverage suddenly termi-
nates.
Some of these individuals are criti-
cally ill and are being treated for very
serious illnesses, whether it be cancer
or HIV-AIDS, and we feel a responsib-
ility to them to do what we can to see
theydont loseaccess, saidAmieGold-
man, who oversees PCIP in Wisconsin.
Federal officials who administer the
plan in the remaining 23 states and
Washington, D.C., remain mum on
what might happen there if the law is
overturned.
The White House line is that Obama
is confident the Supreme Court will up-
hold the Affordable Care Act, and his
administration therefore is making no
contingency plans for a reversal.

MONTPELIER, Vt.
Gov. Peter Shumlin on
Wednesday signed into law
the nations first ban on a
hotly debated natural gas
drilling technique that in-
volves blasting chemical-
laced water deep into the
ground.
The Democrat, surround-
edat a Statehouse ceremony
by environmentalists and
Twinfield Union School stu-
dents who pushed for the
ban, said
the law
may help
Vermont
set an ex-
ample for
other
states. The
ban may
be largely symbolic, though,
because there is believed to
be little to no natural gas or
oil beneath the surface in
Vermont.
The gas drilling tech-
nique, called hydraulic frac-
turing, or fracking, involves
the high-pressure injection
of water and chemicals into
the ground to split rock
apart andrelease natural gas
or oil.
Its being used extensively
inthe rapidlyexpandingnat-
ural gas industry in several
states, including Pennsylva-
nia. Critics have blamed the
practice for contaminating
drinking water wells of some
residents living near the drill-
ing operations, but natural
gas industry officials dispute
those claims.
Shumlin said the increased
amounts of natural gas ob-
tainable through hydraulic
fracturingwere not worththe
risk to drinking water suppli-
es.
In the coming generation
or two, drinking water will
be more valuable than oil or
natural gas, Shumlin said.
Human beings survived
for thousands and thousands
of years without oil and with-
out natural gas, he said. We
have never known humanity
or life on this plant to survive
without clean water.
Shumlin then appeared to
contradict himself, saying
other states should emulate
Vermonts ban on hydraulic
fracturing but also should be
the guinea pigs for testing
the process.
I hope other states will
followus, he said. The sci-
enceonfrackingis uncertain
at best. Let the other states
be the guinea pigs. Let the
Green Mountain State pre-
serve its clean water, its
lakes, its rivers and its qual-
ity of life.
Vermont first to ban hydraulic fracturing
Governor says increased
amounts of gas not worth
risk to drinking water.

LOS ANGELES Van Halen
is postponing some dates on its
summer concert tour.
A source familiar with the
tour who was not authorized to

some of the bands long-sched-

groups website lists active tour
dates through June 26.
Dozens of additional

spond to messages from the

ORLANDO, Fla. Trayvon
Martins autopsy shows he had
marijuana in his systemthe night
he was killed by neighborhood
watch volunteer George Zimmer-
man, and a gunshot to his chest
came fromclose range, according
to nearly 200 pages of previously
undisclosed documents released
Thursday.
At least one investigator want-
ed to charge Zimmerman with
manslaughter but was overruled,
according to the documents,
whicharesheddingnewlight ona
case that has raised questions
about racial profiling and stand
your ground laws. The investiga-
tor, who was on the scene after
the shooting, wrote on March 13
that the confrontation should
have been avoided. That report
came nearly a month before Zim-
merman was arrested.
The documents, photos and
video were turned over by prose-
cutors to defense attorneys earli-
er this week before they were re-
leased to the media. Included in
the many witness interviews
were accounts by an acquaint-
ance of Zimmermans who said
hes racist and a co-worker who
said Zimmerman bullied himand
mocked himwith an exaggerated
Middle Eastern accent.
The autopsy says medical ex-
aminers found THC, the psy-
choactive ingredient in marijua-
na, when they tested Martins
blood and urine. A police report
shows the 17-year-old had been
shot once in the chest and had
been pronounced dead at the
scene. The autopsy says the fatal
shot was fired fromno more than
18 inches away.
Also in the package is a photo
showing Zimmerman with a
bloody nose on the night of the
fight. A paramedic report says
Zimmerman had a 1-inch lacera-
tion on his head and forehead
abrasion.
Bleeding tenderness to his
nose, anda small lacerationtothe
back of his head. All injuries have
minor bleeding, paramedic Mi-
chael Brandy wrote about Zim-
mermans injuries in the report.
Whether Zimmerman was in-
jured in the Feb. 26 altercation
with Martin has been a key ques-
tion. The 28-year-old Zimmer-
man has claimed self-defense and
said he only fired because the un-
armed teenager attacked him.
Zimmerman was not arrested
for weeks because he invoked the
Floridas lawthat does not require
a person to retreat in the face of a
serious threat. He was released
on bail and is in hiding while he
awaits trial on a second-degree
murder charge. He has pleaded
not guilty.
The investigator who called for
Zimmermansarrest, Christopher
Serino, toldprosecutors inMarch
that the fight could have been
avoided if Zimmerman had re-
mainedinhis vehicle andawaited
thearrival of lawenforcement. He
said Zimmerman, after leaving
his vehicle, could have identified
himself to Martin as a concerned
citizen and talked to him instead
of confronting him.

WASHINGTON More than
two dozen world leaders will join
President Barack Obama in an
extraordinary weekend of back-
to-back summits to tackle Eu-
ropes mounting economic woes
and solidify plans for winding
down the decade-long war in Af-
ghanistan.
The Group of Eight economic
summit and the national securi-
ty-focusedNATOmeeting will be
infused with politics from every
angle. For Obama, the summits
are a unique election-year oppor-
tunity to show leadership on the
world stage without having to
leave the U.S.
But with some new faces
around the conference tables,
Obama and the other leaders will
be confronted by the stark re-
minder of the political turmoil
fromAsia toEurope that cost sev-
eral of their old counterparts
their jobs.
Since late 2011, public frustra-
tion with Europes debt crisis has
led to the ouster of leaders in Ita-
ly, Spain, Greece and most re-
cently, France. Two other mem-
bers of theG-8, BritainandJapan,
have had leadership shake-ups
since Obama took office.
Obama is fighting for his own
job in a campaign expected to
hinge on the economy. He has
had the good fortune of being
able to hold both summits this
year in the U.S., allowing him to
tailor the meetings around his
election-year messages of ex-
panding the economy, creating
jobs and ending the war
The summit locations rotate
annually for each organization.
Leaders from the worlds eight
leading industrialized nations ar-
rive inthe Washingtonarea today
for meetings at Camp David, the
wooded presidential retreat in
Marylands Catoctin Mountains.
Immediately after the G-8 sum-
mit, Obama and most of the oth-
er leaders will fly to Chicago on
Saturday evening to join other
heads of state from NATO.
Obama originally planned
both meetings for Chicago, his
hometown. But the White House
abruptly scrapped those plans in
March, announcing with little ex-
planationthat theG-8wouldshift
to Camp David.
U.S. and other diplomats said a
major reason for the switch was
to appear welcoming to Vladimir
Putin, who recently reclaimed
the presidency in Russia. Putin
plannedto skip NATObecause of
his staunch opposition to the alli-
ances planned missile defense
shield, and separating the two
meetings was seen as a way to
give Putin cover to slip away less
awkwardly.
Obama will have a new ally in
his calls for a growth agenda in
Europe, new French President
Francois Hollande. But adminis-
tration officials say Obama plans
to caution Hollande, Frances
first socialist president in 17
years, that Europe cannot aban-
don budget-cutting entirely.
Obama will host Hollande at
theWhiteHousetodaybeforethe
G-8 summit begins.
Hollande will be in the spot-
light as the weekend of summitry
moves to Chicago, where NATO
will firmupplans for howthe alli-
ance will finish its shift from a
combat role in Afghanistan to an
advisory role next year. The alli-
ance will also reaffirm its com-
mitment to fully ending the com-
bat mission in Afghanistan by
2015.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. Re-
publican presidential challenger
Mitt Romney says his campaign
is about the future while Presi-
dent Barack Obamas is about
character assassination.
But he offered no examples,
tellingreporters he wouldleave it
for them to assess.
Romney commented Thurs-
day after supporters abandoneda
potential $10 million ad strategy
that wouldhave highlightedOba-
mas ties to his controversial for-
mer pastor.
Campaigning in Jacksonville,
Fla., Romney said he repudiated
that effort and called it the
wrongcourse for a campaignor
supporters to pursue. Romney
said he would prefer his allies fo-
cus on the economy and jobs.
Agroup of Republican consult-
ants had pitched the ad cam-
paign. After a NewYorkTimes re-
port Thursday on the proposal,
the billionaire businessman who
consideredbankrollingit shelved
the idea after Romney de-
nounced the tactic.
An aide to Joe Ricketts, foun-
der of TD Ameritrade, said the
proposal to draw the Rev. Jere-
miahWright intothe presidential
campaign and the issue of
race, by extension went too
far.
The New York Times reported
Thursday that Ricketts Ending
Spending Action Fund, a conser-
vative super PAC, was consider-
ing a proposal for a $10 million
TV ad campaign highlighting
Wrights sermons.
The blueprint, titled The De-
feat of Barack Hussein Obama:
the Ricketts Plan to End His
Spending For Good, was de-
vised by a group of Republican
strategists, one of whom con-
firmed its contents for The Asso-
ciated Press on condition of ano-
nymity to discuss private work-
ing sessions.
Brian Baker, president of the
super PAC, said Ricketts was not
the author of the 54-page plan.
Baker blamed consultants.
Romney had urged the inde-
pendent group, which favors his
candidacy, to abandon the
Wright strategy and to focus in-
stead on his bedrock issue, the
economy.
I repudiate the effort by that
PACto promote an ad strategy of
the nature theyve described,
Romney told the conservative
website Townhall.com. I would
like to see this campaign focus on
the economy, on getting people
back to work, on seeing rising in-
comes andgrowingprosperity
particularly for those in the mid-
dle class of America.
Obama campaignmanager Jim
Messina criticized the plan as a
campaign of character assassi-
nation and accused Romney re-
acting tepidly in a moment that
required moral leadership in
standing up to the very extreme
wing of his own party.
Messina notedthat Republican
Sen. John McCain, Obamas op-
ponent in the 2008 presidential
race, had rejected using Wright
and Wrights sermons against
Obama.
Wright became a problem for
Obama duringthe 2008presiden-
tial campaign when videos of the
pastors sermons surfaced. In a
2003 sermon, Wright said blacks
should condemn the U.S.

WASHINGTON Mitt
Romney and his party raised
$40 million in April.
The strong haul in the first
month of the general campaign
suggests Republicans are rally-
ing behind Romney. The show-
ing also threatens President
Barack Obamas cash advan-
tage in his push for a second
term.
In just one month, Obamas
10-to-1 cash edge has shrunk to
2-to-1.
Thats in part because Rom-
ney has spent most of his time
courting donors since becom-
ing the presumptive GOP nom-
inee. Hes also getting help
from pro-Romney outside
groups, which are spending
millions on TV ads attacking
Obama.
Romney raised nearly as
much as the $43.6 million
Obama raised for himself and
his party.
Overall, Romneys side re-
ported has $61.4 million in the
bank. Obamas side had $124
million on hand at the end of
March.
VICE PRESIDENT JOE
BIDEN on Thursday mocked
Mitt Romney for attempting to
claim credit for the rebound of
the American auto industry,
linking the GOP hopefuls past
criticism of the Obama admin-
istrations rescue plan with his
role as the head of venture
capital firm Bain Capital.
The setting for Bidens latest
attack on Romney was a Chev-
rolet plant in the southeast
corner of Ohio, to a crowd of
450 invited supporters stand-
ing before three Chevy Cruze
vehicles.
The vice president praised
Obama for stepping up to save
Big 3 automakers General
Motors and Chrysler from
liquidation, to preserve what
he called an iconic industry
that helped build the middle
class.
Governor Romney also
stepped up. He made it clear
what he would do, Biden said,
referring to Romneys New
York Times op-ed piece that
was headlined, Let Detroit Go
Bankrupt.
He noted Romney now tries
to finesse his criticism by say-
ing he advocated for private
equity to step in, rather than
having taxpayer dollars bail out
the companies. But if so, Biden
asked, why didnt Romneys
own company want to invest?
Governor Romney seems to
want it both ways. Its kind of
amazing, Biden said. Youd
think I was making this up. ...
He said, quote, Ill take a lot of
credit for the fact that the
industrys come back.
PRESUMPTIVE REPUB-
LICAN presidential nominee
Mitt Romney says hell run his
first TV ad of the general cam-
paign in a couple of days.
Romney told reporters
Thursday that it will be a posi-
tive spot introducing him to
voters.
Separately, sources familiar
with the ad buy told The Asso-
ciated Press that the spot is
slated to run next week. Data
from television stations shows
the ad will air in Iowa, North
Carolina, Virginia and Ohio
all critical battleground states
in the fall.
The former Massachusetts
governor is still unknown to
millions of voters. Ads high-
lighting his biography could
help introduce him to voters
on his terms, and counter the
negative portrayals of him by
Democratic President Barack
Obamas re-election machine.

ATLANTIC CITY, N.J. Ca-
sinos are not like Starbucks
stores: You really cant have one
on every corner.
Thats the word from David
Cordish, whose company is
opening a huge new casino next
month in Maryland.
Yet Cordish warns that the ex-
pansion of casino gambling cant
go on unchecked forever. A big
problemis the attitude of politic-
ians across thecountrywhoview
casinos as free money.
I dont knowhowwe can con-
trol the politicians; they certain-
ly dont understand the word
oversaturation, Cordish said.
They think you can have casi-
nos like Starbucks.
If that attitude continues, Cor-
dish said, its going to implode
on them.
The expansion of casino gam-
bling has continued rapidly over
the last several years, nowhere
more fiercely than in the North-
east. There is serious disagree-
ment within the industry as to
whether the market is oversat-
urated or whether there is room
for further growth. But most
agree it is tougher to do business
in the Northeast casino market
than it ever has been before.
The Cordish Companys Ma-
ryland Live!, opening on June 6,
will have 4,750 slot machines
and cost $500 million.
Thanks, David, for bringing
4,700 new slots to this market,
joked Don Marrandino, eastern
division president of Caesars En-
tertainment, which owns casi-
nos in Atlantic City and Pennsyl-
vania. Thats great news for us.
Cordish said the casino mar-
ket needs the stability of know-
ing how many operators there
are going to be, particularly with
the 67 percent tax Maryland im-
poses on its casinos.
He saidthe state will have four
casinos with more slot machines
than anything in Las Vegas. Its
an experiment that nobody
knows howits going to turn out.
A contest I dont want to win is
Maryland will probably be the
king of the oversaturated market
withthe highest taxrate. Its a re-
al problem.
What happens when you put
mega-casinos close together is
they generally not only oversat-
urate the market, they dont
work, Cordish said. In the
WashingtonD.C. regionsoon, he
added, youll have four of the
largest casinos inthe country op-
erating within a short drive of
one another.
But newcasinos keep coming.
Timothy Wilmott, president of
Penn National Gaming, which
has 26 casinos nationwide, said
the company is interestedinnew
markets in Massachusetts and
Texas, and is opening new casi-
nos in Ohio soon.
And Virginia McDowell, CEO
of St. Louis-based Isle of Capri
Casinos, which owns 15 casinos
in six states, said there are excel-
lent new markets that dont yet
have casino gambling. The com-
pany plans two more, including
one in Pittsburgh. She listed
Massachusetts, Texas and Flor-
ida as prime spots for new casi-
nos, and said even traditionally
hostile states such as Georgia,
the Carolinas and Kentucky are
considering legalizing them.
Frankly, some of these oppor-
tunities are the best untapped
gambling markets in the United
States, she said. But, McDowell
said, the industry lets its best
growth opportunities die on the
vine, choosing instead to fight
each other.
Mitchell Etess, CEO of Mohe-
gan Sun in Connecticut, said the
states two Indian-run casinos
once had few competitors.
Mohegan Sun also owns Mo-
hegan Sun at Pocono Downs in
Plains Township.
It usedtobe just Atlantic City
andConnecticut that offeredca-
sino gambling onthe East Coast.
The Northeast is going to get a
little more crowded.
And part of that will be due to
Mohegan Sun, which is also
seeking a casino license in Mas-
sachusetts.
At the East Coast Gaming
Congress, held at the newly
opened Revel casino, executives
from Atlantic City casinos said
offeringnon-gamblingamenities
is key to surviving the cutthroat
market, particularly inthe north-
east.
Tony Rodio, CEOof Tropicana
Entertainment Inc., said the in-
dustry, and especially Atlantic
City, needs to play up the other
offerings that dont involve gam-
bling. He said the Tropicana in
Atlantic City is fiercely going af-
ter mid-week meeting and con-
vention business.
Marrandino cited the new$20
million Do AC! advertising
campaign that Atlantic City re-
cently launched, noting it delib-
erately did not show any gam-
bling activities. That was to
stress all the other things there
are to do in the resort, he said.

The Maryland Live! Casino tops off the $500 million gaming and
entertainment destination in Hanover, Md., in February.
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla.
For the first time, a private com-
pany will launch a rocket to the
International Space Station,
sending it on a grocery run this
weekend that could be the shape
of things to come for Americas
space program.
If this unmanned flight and
others like it succeed, commer-
cial spacecraft could be ferrying
astronauts to the orbiting out-
post within five years.
Its a transition that has been in
the works since the middle of the
last decade, when President Ge-
orge W. Bush decided to retire
the space shuttle and devote
more of NASAs energies to ven-
turing deeper into space.
Saturdays flight by Space Ex-
ploration Technologies Corp. is
a thoroughly exciting moment
in the history of spaceflight, but
is just the beginning of a newway
of doingbusiness for NASA, said
President Barack Obamas chief
science adviser, John Holdren.
By handing off space station
launches to private business,
NASAis freeingitself uptofocus
on exploring beyond low Earth
orbit for the first time in 40
years.
California-based Space Explo-
ration, or SpaceX, is the first of
several companies hoping to take
over the space station delivery
business for the U.S. The compa-
nys billionaire mastermind, Elon
Musk, puts the odds of success in
his favor while acknowledging
the chance for mishaps.
NASA likewise cautions: This
is only a test.
We need to be careful not to
assume that the success or failure
of commercial spaceflight is go-
ing to hang in the balance of this
single flight, said Mike Suffredi-
ni, NASAs space station program
manager. Demo flights dont al-
ways go as planned.
Once it nears the space station
after a two-day flight, the SpaceX
capsule, called Dragon, will
spend a day of practice maneu-
vers before NASA signals it to
move in for a linkup. Then its car-
go a half-ton of food and other
pantry items, all nonessential, in
case the flight goes awry will
be unloaded.
Up to now, flights to the space
station have always been a gov-
ernment-only affair.
Until their retirement last sum-
mer, shuttles carried most of the
gear and many of the astronauts
to the orbiting outpost. Since
then, American astronauts have
had to rely on Russian capsules
for rides. European, Japanese
and Russian supply ships have
been delivering cargo.
It will be at least four to five
years before SpaceX or any other
private operator is capable of fly-
ing astronauts. That gap infu-
riates many. Some members of
Congress want to cut govern-
ment fundingtothe private space
venture and reduce the number
of rival companies to save money
and speed things up.
The shift to private enterprise,
while revolutionary in space, has
a long history in the U.S. The In-
ternet, for example, evolvedfrom
government work. Space station
astronaut Donald Pettit points to
the settling of the American
West: The government ran the
forts, and private enterprise built
the railroads.
Inthis instance, NASAemploy-
ees are still working closely with
the commercial contenders, giv-
ing advice and attending compa-
ny meetings.
I see this whole story repeat-
ing itself again and again as we
move from low-Earth orbit, Pet-
tit said. And it will probably re-
peat itself when we go to the
moon and elsewhere.
Private rocket to
fly to space station
Mission this weekend could
lead to opening of a new era
in space exploration.

WASHINGTON And the
heat goes on. Forecasters predict
toasty temperatures will stretch
through the summer in the U.S.
And thats a bad sign for wildfires
in the West.
The forecast for June through
August calls for warmer-than-
normal weather for about three-
quarters of the nation, the Na-
tional Oceanic Atmospheric Ad-
ministration said Thursday.
The warmth is expected south
of a line stretching from middle
New Jersey to southern Idaho.
Only tiny portions of northwest-
ern U.S. and Alaska are predicted
to be cooler than average and
thats onlyfor June, not the rest of
the summer.
Last May until April was the
hottest 12-month period on re-
cord for the nation with records
going back to 1895. This year so
far has seen the hottest March,
the third warmest April and the
fourth warmest January and Feb-
ruary in U.S. weather history.
And it was one of the least snowy
years on record in the Lower 48.
Some people called it the year
without winter.
And the outlook for summer is
more of the same, said Jon
Gottschalck, head of forecast op-
erations at NOAAs Climate Pre-
diction Center in Camp Springs,
Md. Theres definitely a tilt to-
ward being above normal
through the summer.
For some areas of the South-
west that could mean temper-
atures 1 or even 2 degrees warm-
er than normal on average, and
maybe close to half a degree
warmer than normal in the East,
he said.
Oneof thereasons is that much
of the countrys soil is already un-
usually dry. So the sun doesnt
use as much energy evaporating
water in the soil and instead
heats up the air near the ground
even more, Gottschalck said.
Forecasters say the combina-
tion of the heat and dryness will
only make western wildfires
worse. The fire season has al-
ready gotten off to a dramatic
start. Wildfires innorthernArizo-
na and northern Colorado forced
residents to flee their homes on
Thursday.
Fires in those areas could be
even worse today, said Greg Car-
bin, the meteorologist who coor-
dinates warnings at the Storm
Prediction Center in Norman,
Okla.
To see fires to the extent that
they are this early isnt a good
sign, he said. And the summer
forecast is for a prettysignificant
wildfire season developing
across the western United
States.
Get ready for a sizzling summer
Warmer-than-normal
temperatures are forecast for
most of the nation.

LOUISVILLE, Ky. A con-
demned killers fight to receive
surgery for agonizing hip pain
pushed Kentucky officials into an
uncomfortable debate over secu-
rity, politics and even the possi-
bility of inviting scorn from Fox
News pundits.
Emails and memos obtained
by The Associated Press show
corrections officials struggling to
reconcile their duty to provide
medical care with the political
ramifications of spending tens of
thousands of dollars for surgery
on a man they plan to execute. A
key problemwould turn out to be
security issues that led several
hospitals to balk at treating in-
mate Robert Foley.
Hip replacement for an in-
mate who has exhausted all ap-
peals andwill soonbe executed?
Kentucky State Penitentiary war-
den Phil Parker wrote in an email
on Nov. 22, 2010. I can see this
making Fox News ona slownews
day, maybe even on a busy news
day. In fact, I bet (Fox News host
Bill OReilly) would love to put
this in his Pinheads commen-
tary. Just a thought to consider
before it goes too much further.
Prison officials also made con-
tingency plans to call off the sur-
gery if Gov. Steve Beshear set an
execution date, and they consid-
eredwhether to consult withhim
about the procedure.
I think it is that important and
all this may have political conse-
quences, Parker wrote a year be-
fore Beshears re-election. Ulti-
mately, Beshears spokeswoman
said he wasnt contacted about it.
Foley, 55, was convicted of kill-
ing six people in eastern Ken-
tucky in 1989 and 1991, making
himthe most prolific killer onthe
states death row.
Foley still hasnt had the sur-
gery, with Parker lamenting in an
email they had no options after
an exhaustive search.
State officials deny that poli-
tics played a role, and theres no
evidence in the documents that
political considerations prevent-
ed the surgery.
A spokeswoman for the Ken-
tucky Justice Cabinet declined to
comment.
Foleys attorney, Jamesa
Drake, said the state needs a way
to care for condemned inmates,
even those with complex needs.
Foley, whohas beenondeathrow
since 1993, is unable to get
around without help because hes
at risk of a dangerous fall, she
said.
The Department of Correc-
tions acknowledged his degener-
ative hip in a response to the law-
suit, but also said he has been re-
ceiving adequate care. The feder-
al lawsuit filed in March is
pending.
Death row inmates surgery raises ruckus

Wash all the old away
for new day in W-B Area
I
n response to the editorial titled Namey
departure can bring new day on May 11:
I totally agree with the soft but accurate
assessment of the long overdue departure
of the Wilkes-Barre Area School District
superintendent.
One fact totally confusing the taxpayers
is the annual $170,000 retirement check he
will receive, which is $10,000 more than
his working salary. This outrageous state
of affairs is just that a state of affairs
created by the state legislators. The local
school board can be held accountable only
for what appears to be a salary over the
top for this county.
The departure is positive, as long as the
district acquires a seasoned educator with
validated experience as a superintendent
and change agent. Granted, there are
in-house educators who hold the certifica-
tion but seriously lack the experience
reporting to a board. Experience is desper-
ately needed in this district. Strong lead-
ership could have restricted the misman-
agement and even the fraud.
The editorial proclaiming a new day is
to a degree accurate. Remaining are board
members who stood by while this oc-
curred. They werent only silent, they
displayed arrogance and ignorance to the
depth of the problem by electing an in-
dicted member as their board president.
The unbecoming behavior continued at
the May 10 regular meeting. There have
been serious concerns regarding the per-
formance of the superintendent. When he
stated his intent to retire, the board stood
and applauded. Perhaps I misunderstood
the reason for the standing ovation. Cer-
tainly the superintendent deserves recog-
nition for 42 years; this was not the time or
place.
A taxpayer at the May 10 meeting was
mocked by a board member. The taxpayer
and critic of the board and city council
is known for wearing his sunglasses at
public meetings; it could be a problem
related to light. When the taxpayer got up
to speak to the board, a board member put
on a pair of sunglasses. Way out of the
dignity realm. Especially true of this board
member, who should be the last to throw
stones.
Professional decorum at work sessions
and board meetings should be mandated,
coming off instances of fraud, the unthink-
able situation with its solicitor and the
public outcry regarding the actions or lack
of actions by the board and superintend-
ent.
The new day would be truly a new day
with the superintendents resignation
followed by the resignation of all board
members who stood by and did or said
nothing. Perhaps all should go, consid-
ering it took a newspaper reporter to tell
them they were paying too much for legal
services.
And while they brainstormed cuts to
the educational services to students, they
budget $400,000 for legal services, in a
district facing no major litigation.

Writer questions contract
for countys detectives
I
attended a watchdog tax group meeting
May 8, organized by Booty Beltrami in
Hazleton. The county detectives con-
tract was one topic of discussion. Those in
attendance opposed this lucrative deal.
District Attorney Stefanie Salavantis sat
in the audience and heard the public out-
cry for accountability of spending.
Salavantis supported this contract.
The people do not want their tax dollars
spent on sweetheart deals. The question is:
What do the detectives do? Not one of
them investigated Luzerne County corrup-
tion over the past several years. The FBI
had to be called in to clean up the county.
Please reveal the details of the presented
contract and provide a listing of duties
performed by Luzerne County detectives.

State disciplinary board
criticized for inaction
O
n May 7, some 15 months after his
conviction on numerous criminal
charges, including racketeering, upon
the recommendation of the states Dis-
ciplinary Board, the Pennsylvania Supreme
Court temporarily suspended former Lu-
zerne County Judge Mark Ciavarellas
license to practice law.
One might wonder why the disciplinary
board took so long to make its recom-
mendation, why it recommended a tempo-
rary suspension rather than disbarment
and why the Supreme Court followed its
recommendation rather than disbarring
him.
Sometimes the disciplinary board acts in
an untimely manner and sometimes it
doesnt act at all. Some of us are still wait-
ing for it to act on a complaint filed several
years ago against a former prothonotary
who seemingly violated both the law and
the Rules of Professional Conduct by delib-
erately failing to properly index a judg-
ment filed against her former law partner.
Unfortunately, well never know why the
board took so long to act in the Ciavarella
matter and why there has been no action
on the complaint against the former proth-
onotary, because the disciplinary board
wont tell us.
No wonder few lawyers and fewer resi-
dents of Luzerne County have faith in it.

Reader proposes building
hydroelectric dam in area
T
he Wyoming Valley has been prone to
flooding for many years. Is there a
solution?
There is a reasonable approach that will
prevent devastation caused by the floods
and the hardship it creates. The project
will generate jobs for the present and in
the future. Also, if this approach is em-
braced, our federal and state governments
will allow our infrastructure to grow, by
making grants available for a good pur-
pose: to protect its citizens from floods.
Hydroelectric power is the use of com-
plex equipment to convert water into ener-
gy. We can solve much of this flooding
problem by building a hydroelectric power
dam in a location to help control river
flow.
Geological studies of the Susquehanna
River have been done in the past, near
Camel Back Ledge, across from Route 92.
The dam will protect the flooding of the
Wyoming Valley and beyond.
The hydroelectric dam can be modeled
after the Tennessee Valley Authority and
other authorities that have gained experi-
ence in this field. The Susquehanna Au-
thority, if kept off the commodities market,
will allow local residents to reap the bene-
fits of lower energy costs.

Dallas district taxpayer
has had it with taxes
T
axpayers in Dallas School District, your
school board has voted unanimously to
raise property taxes again.
I already have heard the complaining.
Well, what do you expect? You voted them
in there.
Instead, you should be contacting state
Sen. Lisa Baker, who has not sponsored a
property tax relief bill or signed on as
cosponsor. There are two bills concerning
property tax independence: HB1776 and
SB1400.
Call your elected state officials today
and demand they vote for these bills.
We only get to elect officials, not vote on
levies like other school districts in other
states. Demand to know why they wont
vote for this bill.
But before you blame the school board,
look in the mirror.

EGINNING THIS
week, President Ba-
rack Obama will par-
ticipate in three signif-
icant, very visible summits: the
G-8 industrialized nations at
Camp David today and Satur-
day, NATO in Chicago on Sun-
dayandMondayandtheG-20in
Los Cabos, Mexico, June 18-19.
These meetings will provide
Obama, as president and as the
Democratic nominee, with the
opportunity to meet with the
top leadership of at least 39
countries. Major economic, po-
litical andsecurityissues will be
able to be addressed at the
meetings, bilaterally and collec-
tively. The two summits in the
UnitedStates are a political can-
didates dream, with the worlds
leaders clustering around the
president amid heavy national
and international media cover-
age.
There is also, of course, the
risk of glitches, differences of
opinion with various leaders
andserious issues particularly
in the economic realm that
need to be addressed, but on
which agreement might not be
reached.
One already has surfaced.
Russias president, Vladimir V.
Putin, will be sending his prime
minister, Dmitry A. Medvedev,
to represent him. The reason
Putin gave that he was busy
putting together his new Cabi-
net was the diplomatic equiv-
alent of I havetowashmyhair.
Akeytopic at the NATOsum-
mit will be the growing tenden-
cyonthe part of Americas allies
topull out of Afghanistanbefore
Obamas intended departure for
U.S. combat troops at the endof
2014.
The real focus of all the meet-
ings must be the lamentable
state of most nations econo-
mies.
Whatever the results, the
summits are a remarkable op-
portunity for face-to-face con-
sideration of the worlds most
difficult problems by its top
leaders.

OTHER OPINION: WORLD MEETINGS
Summits offer
stage for Obama
M
ORE ART, please.
The areas annual
homage to all
things creative
known as Fine Arts Fiesta, a
free festival continuing today
through Sunday at Wilkes-
Barres Public Square, hints at
how our com-
munity can be
enriched
through paint-
ings, plays, po-
ems, music and
other public ex-
pressions of our
humanity. So,
why dont we
expand on the
notion and inject more art into
our streets and our lives all
year long?
For much of the year here,
art seems restricted.
The areas choirs, choruses
and crooners each stay within
their assigned spaces. Poets, if
they present their work aloud
at all, dosowithinthe confines
of bookstores. The regional
philharmonic, known for its
indoor concert series and a
smattering of school excur-
sions, rarely ventures out of
the concert hall except for its
popular Fourth of July pomp.
Dancers dont dare be seen on
sidewalks instead of stages.
And in those rare instances
when music is heard down-
town, it most likely emanates
from those Farmers Market
mini-concerts or the St. Pa-
tricks Day parade bagpipers.
Meanwhile, the arts in
America appear more endan-
gered.
They routinely get shoved
out of public schools, where
cost-conscious administrators
give them low priority. Ditto
on most college campuses;
when is the
last time
you met a
theater ma-
jor? Prevail-
ing atti-
tudes sug-
gest that
govern-
ment,
which must
be run like a business, pro-
vide zero support to any artsy
endeavors. Certain cranks and
curmudgeons apparently see
no public value in fostering
artistic flair, much less whim-
sy.
They are wrong, of course.
Art inspires. Art soothes
andamuses, challenges andin-
cites. It heals. It educates. It
connects.
Keeping the arts out of view
after the Fiesta ends is as detri-
mental as closeting the Christ-
mas spirit alongwiththe artifi-
cial tree on Dec. 26, or not
brushing between dental vis-
its.
The Fine Arts Fiesta has ex-
isted for nearly six decades. If
we have learned anything in
that time about the arts, its
that four days a year is simply
not enough.

that will attract bears.
Some people tell us they have
no intention of taking down their
birdfeeders, but were lookingfor
people to help out by making
sure theres nothing on their
property attracting bears.
Williams added that feeding
birds duringthis timeof year isnt
necessary to their survival.
Inareas where bear complaints
are numerous, the PGC may set
live traps tocapture the bears and
relocate them in a remote area.
Williams said live trapping
doesnt guarantee that the bear
wont be back.
We generally take them as far
away as feasible on state land. It
can be effective, but its not a
cure-all, he said. If a bear wants
to return, it will.
In Noxen, Rosa said he respon-
ded to two bear incidents last
week alone. They took place on
Stull Road, he said, and both
were related to either garbage or
birdseed attracting the bears.
The residence where the bear
entered the sunroom, there was a
birdfeeder and hummingbird
feeder outside, and then you had
thechest freezer, garbagecanand
a bagof birdseed. There were def-
initely some attractants for this
bear, Rosa said.
Ive had a trap there since last
week, but the bear hasnt return-
ed.

While there she learned about
a new device called Bioness
L300. It fires an electrical shock
into the nerves in her legs to
make them move.
Prior to trying the Bioness
L300, Bozek used a cane and leg
braces. The braces made her fall
frequently and injure herself.
Using the braces was very dif-
ficult, she said. I fell a lot. I
even cracked my teeth due to a
fall, and was exhausted all the
time.
The device, which is attached
to the leg, gently stimulates par-
alyzed muscles to allowpatients
to regain the control needed to
lift their foot more easily.
The Bioness L300 still took
some getting used to, she said,
but the ease of mobility it provid-
ed was exciting.
She started receiving physical
therapy two times a week with
the Bioness L300 at John Heinz
Institute of Rehabilitation in
Wilkes-Barre Township.
Today, Bozek has regained her
active lifestyle and now enjoys
family trips to Numedia Race-
way in Catawissa, a favorite fam-
ily activity. She said she would
not have been able to navigate
the grandstands there without
the device.
I should have learned more
about MS sooner, she said.
I hope more people become
aware of this disease and the
medical advancement to help.

On Thursday, Donahoe an-
nounced the waiting was over.
We simply do not have the
mail volumes to justify the size
and capacity of our current mail
processing network. To return to
long-term profitability and finan-
cial stability while keeping mail
affordable, we must match our
network to the anticipated work-
load, said Donahoe in a release.
Staggered closings
The announced plan does stag-
ger closings over the next three
years rather than all of themclos-
ing this year as originally pro-
posed.
Under the new plan, up to 140
processingcenters will beconsoli-
dated by next February rough-
ly 48 in August and about 90 next
January and February. Another
moratorium previously an-
nouncedthat suspendedany clos-
ings during the Postal Services
busy election and holiday mail
season between September and
January will remain in effect.
Unless thecircumstances of the
Postal Service change inthe inter-
im, a second and final phase of 89
consolidations is scheduled to be-
gin in February of 2014.
There was no specific date for
when the Scranton facility would
close, though it was not likely to
happenthis year, saidRay Daiuto-
lo, a spokesman for the Central
Pennsylvania Region of theU.S.
Postal Service. He said consolida-
tionof the Scrantonfacility is like-
ly to begin next January.
But Casey isnt backing down
his efforts to save the Scranton fa-
cility and 10 others on the chop-
ping block from Pennsylvania.
The Postal Services decision
to move ahead with closing down
facilities across Pennsylvania is
misguided, Casey said. In the
days and weeks ahead, I will con-
tinue to work to protect jobs and
service standards for Pennsylva-
nians.
Approximately 5,000 employ-
ees will begin receiving notifica-
tions next weekrelatedtoconsoli-
dating and other efficiency-en-
hancing activities to be conduct-
ed this summer. The plan is to
merge Scrantons operations with
a processing center in the Lehigh
Valley.
Kevin Gallagher, president of
American Postal Workers Union
Local 101 in Scranton, has previ-
ously said only about one third of
Scrantons workers would be of-
fered jobs in Allentown.
13,000 fewer workers
These consolidating activities
will reduce the size of the Postal
Service workforce by approxi-
mately 13,000 employees and,
whenfullyimplemented, will gen-
erate cost reductions of approxi-
mately $1.2 billion annually.
The Postal Service will be
communicating with our custom-
ers and employees about these
changes in great detail, said
USPS Chief Operating Officer
Megan Brennan. We will work
closely with our customers to en-
sure there are no surprises as we
move forward.
The Postal Service also an-
nounced it is working with its
unions for an employee retire-
ment incentive, although no final
decision has been made.
The Postal Service has re-
duced the size of its workforce by
244,000 career employees since
2000 without resorting to lay-
offs, said Brennan. We are a re-
sponsible employer, and we will
work with our employees to en-
sure a smooth transition to a
much leaner organization.
Shawn Kelly, a spokesman for
U.S. Rep. LouBarletta, whose dis-
trict includes Scranton, saidthere
still may be time to save the cen-
ter.
Duringhis17months inoffice,
Rep. Barletta learned that prob-
lemsinWashingtonusuallygoun-
solved until the very last minute,
sohe is hopeful the political wran-
gling can be put aside and a solu-
tion that protects the postal jobs
can be found, Kelly said.

Continued from Page 1A
WASHINGTON -- The latest
postal move to go forward with
plans to consolidate 250 postal
processing centers comes after
vociferous protests from com-
munities across the U.S., partic-
ularly those in rural areas, over
the mail agencys initial multi-
billion dollar cost-cutting plan
to close up to 3,700 post offices
and 252 mail processing centers.
The Postal Service last week
backed off the closing of post
offices, saying it would cut costs
instead by reducing operating
hours.
Thursdays announcement
seeks to allay some rural con-
cerns about immediate, broad-
scale cuts to mail processing
centers that would have slowed
first-class mail delivery of pre-
scription drugs, newspapers and
other services beginning this
summer and would have virtual-
ly eliminated the chance for a
stamped letter to arrive the next
day.
Under the new plan, about 80
percent of the U.S. areas that
currently enjoy overnight first-
class mail delivery will continue
to do so through the end of next
year. After that, barring congres-
sional action, the Postal Service
will proceed with additional
steps that could slow first-class
mail and reduce overnight deliv-
ery even further, said Megan
Brennan, chief operating officer
of the Postal Service.
The Postal Service has been
grappling with losses as first-
class mail volume declines and
more people switch to the In-
ternet to communicate and pay
bills. The agency has forecast a
record $14.1 billion loss by the
end of this year. Without chang-
es, it said, annual losses would
exceed $21 billion by 2016.
Postmaster General Patrick R.
Donahoe stressed that even
with its latest moves, the agency
still faces mounting losses with-
out congressional action that
would give it more leeway to
eliminate Saturday mail delivery
and reduce health and labor
costs.
If the U.S. House fails to act
soon, postal officials say they
will face a cash crunch in Au-
gust and September, when the
agency must pay more than $11
billion to the Treasury for future
retiree health benefits. Already
$13 billion in debt, the health
payment obligation will force
the agency to run up against its
$15 billion debt ceiling, causing
it to default on the payments.
In many sprawling rural areas
like Hope, Alaska, residents say
they would have to drive nearly
100 miles for mail services in
Anchorage if their local post
office couldnt stay open long
enough. Timely delivery from
mail processing centers is also
particularly valued in the winter
months, when hazardous road
conditions can make travel to a
store or pharmacy difficult if not
impossible.

ary conservatively estimated the
2012contributionat $8.3million.
The county recently came up
with $1.3 million toward last
years subsidy so the pension ad-
visor wouldnt have to resort to
liquidating assets to cover ex-
penses, Mazziotti said Thursday,
noting the balance will be paid
soon.
Lawtonaskedwhenthecounty
started failing to pay the subsidy
in the year it was owed.
Mazziotti said he was in-
formed the practice started in
2007 when cash ran out.
Former commissioners Greg
Skrepenak and Rose Tucker bor-
rowed $15.9 million in 2008
whichhadtoberepaidwithinter-
est over 20 years -- to cover $14
million in prior-year bills, includ-
ing the $2.9 million pension sub-
sidy, records show.
The county administration
wants toget thecountyonatime-
ly payment schedule, in part be-
cause the fund misses out on po-
tential investment earnings
whenthemoneyarrives late. The
fund was worth $193.56 million
at the end of April, a 3.8-percent
return this year.
Pensions approved
The board also approved three
pensions due to state law quirks
that allow former workers to col-
lect pensions earlyor without the
standard five years of vested em-
ployment.
The law allows pensions once
outgoing workers reach age 60,
regardless of how long theyve
worked for the county.
John Corcoran will receive
$243.73 per month after four
years as elected coroner because
hes 64, Hummer said.
Charles Fritz, whoworkeda lit-
tle over three years in security,
will receive $94 per month be-
cause he is 60. His monthly pay-
ment would have been higher,
but he opted to withdraw $4,000
he paid into the fund, Hummer
said.
Recently terminated election
bureau director Leonard Piazza
will receive a pension because of
another obscureprovisionthat al-
lows employees with more than
eight years of service to collect
pensions early if theyre involun-
tarily eliminated.
Employees who dont have 20
years of employment normally
must wait until they turn 60 to
collect a pension. Piazza, who is
41andhad14yearsof service, will
receive $192.62 per month. He al-
so took out $42,344.98 in contri-
butions hehadpaidintothefund,
Hummer said.
Former county security officer
Kenneth Holley also was permit-
ted to receive $47,850 he paid in-
to the fund with interest. Holley
had pleaded guilty to a misde-
meanor charge for failing to dis-
closea previous convictiononhis
county employment application.
Board Solicitor Donald Karpow-
ich said the county did not have
legal authority to withhold inter-
est.
The board also tabled several
employee requests to buy back
credit from previous part-time
county employment to boost fu-
ture pensions.
State lawpermits the practice.
However, the board wants Kar-
powich to determine if the coun-
ty must allow lower purchase
prices dating back to the part-
time work, rather than rates
based on current pay.
RETIREES
Continued from Page 1A
The natural gas-laden Marcel-
lus Shale formation, though not
being drilled into in either coun-
ty, isstill havingagreat impact lo-
cally. The airport and area high-
ways are seeing increased use
and some locally based compa-
nies including engineering
firms, equipment rental busi-
nesses and lawfirms have seen
increaseddemands drivenby gas
drilling.
But while Susquehanna, Brad-
ford, Tioga and Wyoming coun-
ties are seeing the most bang
from the booming industry,
those involved with the institute
believe its only a matter of time
before Lackawanna and Luzerne
will begin seeing both the posi-
tives and negatives.
Impact on housing
Charles Kasko, president of
Signature Building Systems of
PA, based in Moosic, chairs the
Housing Task Force. He noted
that as demand for housing for
shale industry workers has out-
pacedthesupply, landlords inthe
northern tier counties have be-
gan raising prices, which forces
tenants to move out. Some dis-
placed families have begun mak-
ing their way south into the
Wyoming and Lackawanna val-
leys where affordable housing is
prevalent. This has added more
students to school districts, cre-
ateda greater needfor social pro-
grams, public safety and trash
disposal.
The two counties already were
dealing with increased popula-
tions over the past decade
something not experienced or
dealt with since the 1950s.
Terri Ooms, the institutes di-
rector, said the region is dealing
with the growth at a time the
economy has soured, causing
more issues.
The costs of living in the re-
gionarerisingat agreater dispar-
ity that the rise of wages, she
said.
Seismic shift
While this is going on, there
are transformative events im-
pacting the region in positive
ways. With the exception of Ha-
zletonGeneral Hospital, all of the
countys hospitals are now own-
ed by two health care systems.
Itsaseismicshift, saidKaren
Murphy, who was the CEO of
Moses Taylor Hospital in Scran-
ton before it was sold to Commu-
nity Health Systems last year.
Murphy now serves as interim
president of the Moses Taylor
Foundation and chairs the health
care task force for the institute.
Shesaidthesales of areahospi-
tals to Danville-based Geisinger
Health System and Tennessee-
based Community Health Sys-
tem come with promises of
$418.6 million in investments
over the next seven years.
This will create jobs and stim-
ulate the local economy since
Community Health is a for-profit
company and its properties are
on the local tax rolls. It also will
keep more residents local when
requiring medical treatment, she
said.
Keeping more young residents
local by attending college or
moving back after graduating
from college is also something
that needs to be addressed.
In 2010, local residents ages 20
to24 comprisedthe smallest per-
centage of the population in both
counties.
Limited jobs, slow industry
growth in high-tech and high-
wage sectors and low wages all
factor in, Ooms said. The region
has the highest unemployment
rate in the state and has held on
to that claimfor more than three
years. The number of construc-
tion and manufacturing jobs lo-
cally has plummeted since 2007,
coinciding with the recession
and bursting of the housing bub-
ble.
Wages lagging
For those whoare still working
locally, wages are lagging. The
average annual salary in Lacka-
wanna County in 2010 was
$35,253andinLuzerne, $36,502.
The state average was $44,950.
But Ooms said the numbers
and trends, combined with some
plans in place to capitalize from
the burgeoning industries and
the regions prime location, give
her hope.
Our potential is there in a
number of ways I think our ge-
ographic location is phenom-
enal, Ooms said. The key is
breaking down the barriers, de-
veloping a plan and executing.

she had knowledge that Barnes
and Trollinger were involved in
drug trafficking.
Barnes was released from the
county prisononMarch20, when
his bail was modified on criminal
conspiracy charges and firearm
and drug offenses, according to
court records.
Wilkes-Barre police charged

three police officers after the
crash. During the fight, a pack of
cigarettes allegedly containing
crack cocaine fell from Barnes
pocket, according to arrest re-
cords.

Seminary versus Scranton Prep.
The two teams always seem to be the ones

postseason, combining to win all 12 District 2
Class 2A team titles with seven going to the
Blue Knights.
Seminary has gotten the best of the Cava-
liers the last two seasons as well, winning ev-
ery gold medal possible in the district with
team, singles and doubles titles. The Cava-
liers ended that run on Thursday at Kirby

Parkhurst and Cornell were the defending
champions of the tournament, defeating the
same players for the 2011title.
Obviously they go in with nothing to lose.
This is their last chance, win or go home. We

BALTIMORE A year ago, Gra-
ham Motion was one of the most pop-
ular figures at Pimlico Race Course.
As the trainer of Kentucky Derby
winner Animal Kingdom, Motion had
the lone horse in the Preakness field
with a shot at winning the Triple
Crown.
The pressure is on you, the En-
glishman recalled Thursday. The
two weeks between the Derby and the
Preakness, I felt like I was holding my
breath. Youre kind of walking on egg
shells, hoping everything is going
great with the horse.
Animal Kingdom came in second in
the 2011 Preakness, a half-length be-
hind Shackleford. Motion cant get
the outcome out of his mind no
matter how hard he tries.
We came that close, Motion said,
holding his index finger and thumb a
half-inch apart. I was quite shocked
to see Shacklefords picture on the
grandstand when I drove in this morn-
ing. That was kind of a pit in my stom-
ach.
Motion will saddle Went the Day
Well in the Preakness on Saturday.
The bay colt finished fourth in the
Derby two weeks ago but has won two
of his four starts this year.
Went the Day Well was bumped at
Churchill Downs and forced to go sev-
en wide in an effort to catch up. He
rallied gamely under jockey John Ve-
lazquez, but couldnt quite make up
enough ground to finish in the money.
He ended up much farther back
than Johnny wanted in the Derby, and
thats probably what cost him being
second. Maybe cost himthe win, Mo-
tion said. Its all about getting a good
trip. Theres always going to be a
horse in the Derby that doesnt get a
good trip, and thats what makes it so
hard to win the Triple Crown.
If Motion has his way, horse racing

WEST PITTSTON Twice Berwick
put two runners on base with one out.
Twice the Bulldogs walked away with
nothing to show for it.
But Berwickovercame twounsuccess-
ful innings at the plate to tally five unan-
swered runs and upend Wyoming Area
by a 5-1 score.
However, the Bulldogs offensive pro-
duction was overshadowed by Clay De-
Noias pitching performance.
DeNoia struck out eight and did not
allow an earned run in a four-hit com-
plete game tonotcha win. After the Bull-
dogs gave him a lead in the fourth, the
junior hurler retired12 of the final 13 bat-
ters.
Clay has been outstanding all year,
Berwick coach Brian Pinterich said. Its
given us a chance to win every game. If
there is a more im-
proved player this year,
Id like to see it. Hes
been dominant in his
outings, and he stepped
up again, beating an ex-
cellent baseball team.
Ultimately, Clay De-
Noia was the x-factor tonight. He dom-
inated the game.
Things didnt start sosmoothly for the
Bulldogs in the first two innings. They
grounded into a routine 6-4-3 double
play to end the first. An inning later, Ber-
wick put runners on second and third
with one gone before Wyoming Area
catcher Trent Grove orchestrated a tag
at home plate before throwing out the
runner at third base.

WESTPITTSTON Wyoming
Area authored a comeback for
the ages Thursday and erased a
history of futility.
Serra Degnans two-out single
in the bottom of the seventh
brought home Nicole Turner
with the winning run as the War-
riors claimedtheir first divisional
title in 21 years
with their 4-3
victoryover Ber-
wick in Wyom-
ing Valley Con-
ference softball.
This whole
thing is just un-
imaginable,
said Lexi Coolbaugh, a junior.
In 20 years, when we come
back to the school, well see our
year up on the banner, Turner
said. We didnt put our heads
down (trailing in the last inning).
We never gave up.
Wyoming Area claimed the Di-
vision I West crown in the win-
ner-take-all affair, its first cham-
pionship since 1991.
Everyone was behind us. We
were getting support from every-
where, said Degnan, a junior.
Some of our teachers were on
that team. They were looking at
the banner, they were telling us
about it, wishing us luck. This
game meant something.
Coolbaugh started the War-
riors rally by ripping a two-strike
pitch down the right-field line for
a triple leading off the seventh.
When I hit the ball, I thought I
was stopping at first, Coolbaugh
said of her slicing drive. Then I
saw coach waving me on and I
knew I had to actually run. I had
to put the wheels on then.
Turner stepped in with the ty-
ing run 60 feet away and made
the drawn-in Berwick infield a
moot point, launching a double
to the fence in center. It was the
sophomores third hit of the day.
After a strike out anda popout,
Degnan came to the plate with
Turner still on second. Down to

CHICAGO Roy Halladay
threw eight strong innings for
his first victory in a month and
the Philadelphia Phillies held
on for an 8-7 win over the
Chicago Cubs on Thursday
night.
Halladay (4-3) hadnt won
since April 16, a span of five
starts, and had lost three
straight decisions to match a
career high, but held the Cubs
to three runs and scattered
seven hits. The two-time Cy
Young winner has allowed
three earned runs or fewer in
eight of his nine starts this
season.
Chicagos Welington Castil-
los stroked a two-out, three-
run double in the ninth against
Phillies LHP Jake Diekman to
close the gap to two runs.
Phillies closer Jonathan Papel-
bon came on and allowed an
RBI single to Darwin Barney,
but got Reed Johnson on a
grounder to third for his 11th
save of the season.
Mets 9, Reds 4
NEW YORK David
Wright lined his second double
of the game, a tiebreaking
drive in the eighth inning that
raised his major league-leading
average to .411 and sent the
New York Mets past the Cin-
cinnati Reds.
Down 4-0, the Mets began
their comeback in the middle
innings.
Ronny Cedenos three-run
homer capped a five-run eighth
against Logan Ondrusek (3-1),
a burst that began with a neat-
ly placed bunt single by backup
catcher Rob Johnson with one
out.
Giants 7, Cardinals 5
SAN FRANCISCO Bran-
don Crawford hit a two-run
single for his first RBIs since
April and the Giants capital-
ized on shoddy fielding by St.
Louis to give Matt Cain sup-
port on a rare shaky day as the
Giants beat the Cardinals.
Diamondbacks 9, Rockies 7
DENVER Justin Upton
hit a two-out, two-run homer
off closer Rafael Betancourt in
the ninth inning to help the
Diamondbacks beat the Rock-
ies in a game that was briefly
delayed by a swarm of bees.
Pirates 5, Nationals 3
WASHINGTON Andrew
McCutchen homered twice,
James McDonald took a no-
hitter into the sixth inning and
struck out a career-high 11, and
the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the
Washington Nationals.
Braves 7, Marlins 0
ATLANTA Brandon Bea-
chy threw a five-hit shutout,
the first of his career, to im-
prove the major leagues lowest
ERA and the Atlanta Braves
beat the Miami Marlins.
Astros 4, Brewers 0
HOUSTON Jed Lowrie
hit a two-run homer and J.A.
Happ threw six sharp innings
before three relievers complet-
ed the Houston Astros victory
over the Milwaukee Brewers.

The Mets David Wright slugs
a double against the Cincinna-
ti Reds Thrusday in New York.
TORONTO Jose Bautista
and J.P. Arencibia each hit
two-run home runs, Drew
Hutchison won consecutive
starts for the first time and the
Toronto Blue Jays beat the
New York Yankees 4-1 Thurs-
day night, sweeping their two-
game series.
New York lost its third
straight and fell to 0-9 this
season when failing to hit at
least one home run. The Yan-
kees, who have scored 12 total
runs in nine losses this month,
dropped a half game behind
Toronto and into fourth place
in the AL East.
Making just his sixth major
league start, Hutchison (3-1)
allowed one run and five hits in
six innings, matching his long-
est outing. He walked four and
struck out three.
Athletics 5, Rangers 4
ARLINGTON, Texas Kila
Kaaihue had a tiebreaking
single in the 10th inning, and
the Oakland As bounced back
from a disputed call on squeeze
play that cost them the lead to
beat the Texas Rangers.
Kaaihues single off Mike
Adams (0-2) drove in Jonny
Gomes, who had three hits.
Josh Reddicks 10th homer off
Alexi Ogando made it 4-all in
the seventh.
Twins 4, Tigers 3
DETROIT Justin Mor-
neau hit a two-run homer in
his second game back from a
wrist injury, and the Twins
swept the two-game series at
Comerica Park.
P.J. Walters (1-1) allowed
four hits including three
solo homers in 6 1-3 innings
for the Twins Park. Minnesota
(12-26) has won two in a row
for only the second time this
season.
Orioles 5, Royals 3
KANSAS CITY, Mo.
Adam Jones hit a two-run
homer, J.J. Hardy also drove in
a pair of runs and the Orioles
beat the Royals for their sev-
enth straight road win.
The Orioles also improved to
12-1 when Jones goes deep,
including a victory over the
Royals the previous night,
when his homer in the 15th
inning decided the game.
Brian Matusz (3-4) won for
the third time in four starts
after enduring a career-worst
12-decision losing streak. He
allowed three runs on seven
hits and a walk in six innings.
Luke Hochevar (3-4) pitched
well for six innings.
Indians 6, Mariners 5
CLEVELAND Carlos
Santana hit a game-ending
single with one out and the
bases loaded in the 11th inning,
capping a two-run rally and
lifting the Indians to a victory
over Seattle.
White Sox 6, Angels 1
ANAHEIM, Calif. Chris
Sale pitched effectively into the
sixth inning, giving Chicagos
rotation a much-needed solid
outing, and the White Sox
capitalized on some shoddy
defense by the Los Angeles
Angels for a victory.
Red Sox 5, Rays 3
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla.
Cody Ross homered and drove
in four runs, Felix Doubront
won his third consecutive start
and the Boston Red Sox beat
the Tampa Bay Rays.

this season.
Lagotski followed Gill to the finish
line in second place in the 3200 meters.
She finished third in the 1600 but will
replace Gill in that event at the Pennsyl-
vania Interscholastic Athletic Associ-
ation Championships May 25-26 at
Shippensburg University.
District 2 gets two competitors in
each event at the state meet. With Gill
concentrating on the 3200 relay and
3200 run at the state level, Lagotski will
finish her career as a two-event per-
former in Shippensburg.
Thats a case of hard work over
time, Holy Redeemer coach Sarge
McFarlane said. It certainly paid off for
her today.
Im very proud of Briannes efforts.
Gill and Lagotski will be making the
trip with several teammates.
Fallyn Boich won the discus and jave-
lin. Her discus win made her the only
girl to successfully defend a title on a
day whenfour returning champions set-
tled for second-place finishes and state
berths in their events.
Boichs javelin title came at the ex-
pense of Emily Hughes of Holy Cross,
last years champion.
Julia Wignot edged defending cham-
pion Olivia Jendrezjewski of Hanover
Area by 1 inches in a highly compet-
itive triple jump. Wignot finished sec-
ond as the defending champion in the
long jump where she was beaten by
GARs Quieterra Gross.
Wignot was also part of Holy Re-
deemers other winning relay team in
the 400.
Melissa Cruz won the 800 and an-
chored the winning 3200 relay team as
well as the second-place 1600 relay
team.
You put your best athletes together,
you recognize their talent and some-
times you tell them they have to sacri-
fice a little for the greater good of the
team, McFarlane said. That certainly
happened today.
Mallory Kusakavitch and Jenna Ni-
towski joinedGill andCruz toproducea
convincing win in the 3200 meters, the
first event to be completed.
Wignot was joined by Mallory Kusa-
kavitch, Marnie Kusakavitch and Mela-
nie Kusakavitch in the 400 relay.
Holy Redeemers Lagotski was not
the only senior to experience a break-
through.
Tess Sauer of Meyers won both the
100- and200-meter dashes. She finished
fourth in the 100 as a sophomore and
was fifth in both events last season.
I was hopeful, saidSauer, whostart-
ed the day seeded third in the 100 and
fourth in the 200. I was dreaming big,
but I saw the other teams times.
I was hoping if I did not get first, Id
just get a good time to get into states.
Hanover Areas Amy Viti won the 400
by more than two seconds when her
57.56-second finish made her the only
girl to break a minute.
GARs Gross was unabletodefendher
title in the 100 hurdles, but managed a
second-placefinishtoreturntothestate
meet in two individual events. Gross
finished between Lakeland freshman
Cassidy Jenkins and Lakeland senior
Tori Doyle, the only girl to qualify for a
trip to Shippensburg by meeting the
state standard while placing third.
Northwests Kirsten Walsh reached
the state meet with a second-place fin-
ish in the 300 hurdles.
Jenkins won both hurdles and Doyle
made the state meet in three events to
help Lakelandto its second-place finish.
Northwest and Hanover Area placed
fourth and fifth out of 18 teams.

think everyone on our team can attest to
that.
Gawlas sacrificed one of the prime
spots in the middle of the track for the
final and risked not even making it
through 200-meter qualifying by conserv-
ing energy in the preliminary round.
Needing to make the top eight to ad-
vance, Gawlas had the seventh-best time
in qualifying.
It was just a little close for comfort,
Holy Redeemer coach Sarge McFarlane
said. You have to be in it to win it.
While each of the other seven finalists
had their times go up in the finals, Gaw-
las dropped his by six-tenths of a second
to finish in 22.33 and win easily.
I think a few people were surprised by
that, said Gawlas, who was a runner-up
to teammate Seth Tarselli in both sprints
last season. Coach told me to relax a
little bit. I had four more races. It was a
bit of a gamble, but I was lucky enough
to make the final.
I was confident. I still had a lot of
energy left after that.
McFarlane said the inside lane was not
such a bad position for a Holy Redeemer
runner.
For where we practice at Kirby Park,
the only real place you can run is in Lane
1, McFarlane said.
Holy Redeemer opened the day by im-
mediately taking the lead in the team
standings when Vincent Villani, Vinay
Murthy, Josh Foust and Frazee Sutphen
produced a win in the 3200 relay.
The Royals compiled 99 points to beat
out Holy Cross, which finished with 80.
Holy Cross was led by Rico Galassi,
the only two-time individual winner be-
sides Gawlas, and the only record-setter
on the day. Galassi broke the districts
nine-year-old mark in the 3200 meters by
almost nine seconds in 9:19.51.
Hanover Area was third with 64
points. The Hawkeyes had three of the
Wyoming Valley Conferences other six
champions.
Tony Dennis and Martin Steve repeat-
ed as champions of the shot put and
discus. Matthew Clemons took the title
in the triple jump.
GAR got titles from Shaliek Powell in
the 300 hurdles and Lucas Benton in the
400.
Jacob Bevan won a title for Lake-Leh-
man in the 800.
The top two in each event made the
state meet.
Bevan also made it in the high jump by
finishing second.
Mitchel Ford qualified for Holy Re-
deemer in the 1600.
The other second-place finishers from
the WVC were Northwest freshman Tyler
Burger in the 110 high hurdles and Ha-
nover Areas Carl Daubert in the 300 hur-
dles.
Lake-Lehman finished seventh and
GAR eighth out of 19 teams.
GAR managed that despite going with-
out Darrell Crawford, whose career has
included multiple district titles and state
medals.
Crawford, the defending champion in
the 100 hurdles, long jump and triple
jump, was unable to complete hurdles
qualifying because of an upper leg injury.
He received treatment in the medical
tent during preliminary jumps in the
long jump, but was not able to compete
by the time his third attempt came
around and had to scratch.
Mid Valleys Antonio Russo in the 100
meters was the only athlete to reach the
state meet by hitting a qualifying stan-
dard in a third-place finish.
Lake-Lehmans Kieran Sutton will
compete in Shippensburg after placing
third because Galassi scratched from the
1600 for the state meet.

cause Parkhurst and Cornell
will go back to playing at No. 2
and No. 3 singles, respectively
this weekend.
I think for us, its a tough
loss, but nothing has changed
and were still completely fo-
cused for this weekend, Cor-
nell said. And thats the pri-
mary goal of the season, a state
championship.
The Cavaliers team ap-
pearedtohave a little extra mo-
tivation in Thursdays match.
They jumped on Seminary,
winning the first two games in
the first set before closing out
the match with four straight
game wins. The secondset was
much closer as Parkhurst and
Cornell won the opening game
to forge a 1-0 lead after three
straight winners. The Knights
lookedtobe gettingbacktothe
form they presented last year
and even took a 2-1 lead in the
set. But the Cavaliers were just
too much and answered by
winning the next three games
to go up 4-2 before taking a 6-4
win.
The first set, they set the
tone for the match with the in-
tensity, Cornell noted. And
then to come out of the hole in
the second set, that really hurt
us.
Seminarys other semifinal-
ist team, Christopher Kim and
Willie Lu, also fell to the No. 2-
seeded Cognetti and Walker in
the semis 6-1, 6-0. Parkhurst
andCornell defeatedPreps Jay
Patel and Matt Hanahue 6-2,
6-2 in the other semi.
In the Class 3A final, Dela-
ware Valleys Andrew Neidig
and Joe Hunt defeated Abing-
ton Heights Jai Redkar and
Dan Jasinski in straight sets.

were a good sign because we felt
we got to them early and contin-
ued to get some scoring chanc-
es.
Things begantounravel for the
Warriors defensively. With the
Warriors down 2-1 in the fifth in-
ning, an errant pickoff move
scored Berwicks Anthony Meli-
to.
Berwick put the game away in
the sixth off more Wyoming Area
miscues. Following two errors, a
fly ball to right field resulted in a
third error and two runs giv-
ing the Bulldogs a 6-1 lead.
With how weve been swing-
ing the bat, we could put some
pressure on some teams with our
speed, Pinterich said. It finally
paid off for us. They broke a little
bit defensively. We took advan-
tage with our speed.
Will Morales, TJ Lashock and
Eric May led the Bulldogs with
two hits apiece. Melito drove in a
run with a double.
For Wyoming Area, Jake Gran-
teed manufactured two hits and
reached base in all three of his at-
bats. Erik Walkoviak produced
the Warriors lone RBI.

Crown the Royals champs again
The Times Leader staff
HAZLETON The senior
ceremony was following a victo-
ry, but that wasnt making
things any easier on Gino Cara.
The Hazleton Area baseball
coach had just watched a group
of his seniors come through for
a critical 6-4 win over Coughlin
on Thursday at Antinozzi Field.
After the game it was time to
give them their sendoff.
Ill tell you what, this senior
class is a special class, Cara
said. I mean, theyve been with
me forever. Right now I dont
want to even go through the
senior ceremony, to be honest
with you.
They played, they contrib-
uted, they worked hard. Cer-
tainly our record doesnt in-
dicate what were capable of, but
were playing good baseball
right now.
And that hard work has kept
the Cougars (8-6) in the hunt for
a division title and possibly
another home game. They
moved ahead of Coughlin with
the win and into a first-place tie
with Pittston Area in Division I
East with one game to play.
Both Pittston Area and Hazle-
ton Area will be at Hollenback
Park on Saturday. The Patriots
play their season finale against
Holy Redeemer at noon. Then
at 4 p.m., the Cougars will finish
a game they started with the
Royals on Wednesday with the
score tied 7-7 at the start of the
10th inning.
If both squads remain tied
after Saturday, they will have a
special playoff game for the
division crown on either Sunday
or Monday, with the time and
site to be determined.
To reach that point, however,
the Cougars first needed a
strong effort against Coughlin.
And four seniors in particular
carried the day.
Tyler Rubasky and Carl Cara
both hit a pair of RBI singles,
one apiece in the third and
fourth innings.
Brady Wolfe had an inspiring
at-bat to lead-off the bottom of
the fourth, fouling off a series of
balls before sending the 10th
pitch he saw well over the fence
in right field to tie the game at
3-3.
Anthony Zaloga pitched a
complete game, holding on
through 120 pitches. He finished
with six strikeouts and over-
came a leadoff single in the
seventh with three straight outs
to close the deal.
He wanted the ball the last
inning, Gino Cara said. Its a
senior day game and he said,
Ive got three more outs. And I
said, Youve got it.
Coughlin had taken a 3-2 lead
in the top of the fourth after
Dave Marriggi lined a two-run
single with two strikes on him
and two outs. But Wolfe answer-
ed with his solo shot in the
home half of the frame before
Rubasky and Carl Cara grabbed
the lead right back.
The Crusaders, meanwhile,
had a few close calls on the
bases go against them and a few
miscues theyd like to have back.
We played dumb baseball,
Coughlin coach Moe Rodzinak
said. Kids dont know how to
run the bases. We got a couple
tough calls. Thats just the way
it went today.
Joe Parsnik and Dom Gulius
each had a pair of hits for the
Crusaders, who finished the
regular season at 8-7.
Ace Josh Featherman suffered
his only loss in league play,
striking out three in four in-
nings of work.
Josh didnt have his best stuff
today, Rodzinak said. When
his curveballs on, its almost
unhittable. It was hanging to-
day. But even without his best
stuff, we were still in the game
with them. As bad as things
went we still had a chance. We
still had our chances.
We just couldnt get that hit
when we needed it.
Cougars dedicate game
For the first time in school
history, Hazleton Areas scarlet
numbers and lettering were
swapped out for pink for Thurs-
days game. The special uni-
forms were worn for Mothers
Day and for breast cancer aware-
ness.
Carol Rubasky, mother of
senior catcher Tyler, is a breast
cancer survivor and got to
throw out the first pitch to her
son.
I think its great that the
school and the school district
allowed us to do that, and it
turned out to be a really good
thing, Gino Cara said.

TOLEDO, Ohio Ramon Or-
tiz, who has 86 career major
league victories over a spanof 11
seasons, picked up his first win
as a member of the Scranton/
Wilkes-Barre Yankees on Thurs-
day night in a 4-1 triumph over
the Toledo Mud Hens.
Ortiz (1-3) struck out eight
Mud Hens in seven innings and
allowed just two hits and one
walk. Of his 90 pitches, 62 were
strikes. Toledo did not reach
base until there were twoouts in
the fourth inning. The Mud
Hens did not have a hit until the
fifth inning.
Scranton/Wilkes-Barre is the
20th professional team Ortiz
has posted a victory for in a 17-
year pro career.
Another former major leagu-
er, Manny Delcarman, pitched
the ninth for his first save of the
season.
A four-run fourth inning was
all the support Ortiz needed.
Ronnier Mustelier delivered the
big blow, a home run to left to
plate three. Steve Pearce, who
earlier drove home Colin Curtis
with a single, and Jack Cust,
who had walked, scored on the
homer.
AdamWilk (2-3) took the loss
for Toledo.
The Yankees (20-19) andMud
Hens (22-20) complete their
four-game series tonight at 7.

SESTRI LEVANTE, Italy
Lars Bak of Denmark won the
12th stage of the Giro dItalia
and Joaquin Rodriguez retained
the overall lead on Thursday.
Bak burst away from the
breakaway group with a half
mile to go for a clear victory on
the 96-mile route from Seravez-
za to Sestri Levante.
Sandy Casar finished second,
but it was not enough to over-
take Rodriguez as the overall
leader. Casar is 26 seconds
behind the Spaniard, who will
wear the pink jersey for the
third successive day on Friday.
The 13th stage is the shortest
leg of the Giro, a 75-mile ride
from Savona to Cervere, which
is largely downhill. The race
ends on May 27 in Milan.
Tour of California
BAKERSFIELD, Calif.
Dave Zabriskie won the individ-
ual time trial in hot and breezy
conditions Thursday to take the
Tour of California overall lead in
with three stages left.
Zabriskie, the 33-year-old
Garmin-Barracuda rider from
Salt Lake City, finished the
18.4-mile flat course in 35 min-
utes, 59 seconds. Hes a six-time
U.S. champion.
Germanys Jens Voigt, racing
for RadioShack-Nissan-Trek, was
second in the fifth stage, 23
seconds back.
As temperatures reached into
the mid-90s for the second
straight day, Tejay Van Garderen
of Tacoma, Wash., and Garmin-
Barracuda, was third, 34 sec-
onds back.
Zabriskie, who led the Tour
de France for three days in 2005
after beating Lance Armstrong
by two seconds in the opening
time trial, leads Van Garderen
by 34 seconds in the overall
standings.
Slovakias Peter Sagan, the
Liquigas-Canondale rider who
swept the first four stages, fin-
ished 52nd in the stage, nearly
3 minutes behind Zabriskie.
Kristin Armstrong won the
womens individual time trial in
39:59.28. From Boise, Idaho,
and racing for Exergy TWEN-
TY12, she won a gold medal in
the 2008 Olympics.

her last strike, and having fouled
off a couple of pitches, the junior
lifted a single into right field and
Turner raced home with the win-
ning run.
Its been like that all season,
Coolbaugh said. She has some-
thing like eight game-winning
hits for us.
When youre under pressure,
you have a chance to put yourself
out there, Degnan said of her
abilities in the clutch.
Alex Holtz earned the win,
scattering five Berwick hits.
Alex pitched such a good
game today, said Turner, her
catcher. And we had a steller de-
fense behind her.
There have been so many sit-
uations where Alex got into trou-
ble and she has pulled through it
this year, Coolbaugh said. She
could load the bases and then
strike out the next three batters.
It doesnt ever get to her.
Holtz had retired 11 straight
when the Bulldogs Sara Berlin
banged a double off the fence in
left to open the fifth inning. Ber-
wick got a pair of sacrifice bunts
down, then Kylene Welsh deliver-
ed a two-run single to center, giv-
ing the Bulldogs a 3-2 lead.
The middle of our lineup has
started to come through for us,
Berwick coach Brian Bridge said.
Theyve really come up big the
last couple of games.
Im proud of my girls and the
way they played. They took it
down to the last inning, the last
out. I cant ask for more than
that.
Abbey Remley put Berwick on
the board first with a double to
left in the first inning. She scored
on a grounder by Moriah Lynn.
Wyoming Area tied it in the
second with a double by Drew
Bednarski and a single from
Adrienne Pryzbyla. The Warriors
took a 2-1lead in the third inning
as Turner hada leadoff single and
scoredona single toleft byHoltz.

INDIANAPOLIS Roy
Hibbert had 19 points and 18
rebounds, George Hill
scored 20 and Danny Gran-
ger 17 as the Indiana Pacers,
showing more balance,
toughness and togetherness
than Miami, throttled the
Heat 94-75 on Thursday
night in Game 3 of the East-
ern Conference semifinals.
Overlooked during the reg-
ular season and given little
chance to upset the reigning
East champions, the Pacers
took a 2-1 lead in the best-of-
seven series.
Game 4 is Sunday at rau-
cous Bankers Life Field-
house.
LeBron James scored 22
16 in the first half before
wearing down and Mario
Chalmers added 25 for Mia-
mi. However, Dwyane Wade
scored only 5 on 2-of-13
shooting for the Heat, al-
ready missing forward Chris
Bosh because of a strained
abdominal muscle and not
expected to return for this
series.
Indiana outscored Miami
51-32 in the second half,
when the Pacers could do no
wrong.
They made big shots, chal-
lenged everything the Heat
tossed in the air and didnt
back down from a Miami
team that appeared poised to
make an easy run to the NBA
finals after top-seeded Chica-
go lost Derrick Rose and was
eliminated in the first round.
The Pacers, though, have
other plans.
In the second half, Indiana
forward David West flung
James to the floor in the
lane, and Granger later got in
the superstars face after a
foul on a breakaway. After
winning Game 2 in South
Florida by three points, the
Pacers wanted to show
theyre for real.
Believe it.
Theyre two wins from tilt-
ing the balance of power in
the East.
With his team down 20 in
the closing minutes, Heat
coach Erik Spoelstra waved
the white flag and pulled out
first Wade, then James, who
quickly removed his head-
band as he got to the bench
and then pulled out the
mouthpiece inscripted with
XVI the Roman numeral
for 16 or the number of
wins it takes to get a cham-
pionship.
When the final horn
sounded, the three-time
MVP quickly exited the
floor.
Indiana busted open a
grind-it-out game with a 17-3
run in the third quarter, do-
ing it with an inside-outside
attack that had the Heat
wondering what was coming
next.
Pushed by a rocking home
crowd wearing Gold Swag-
ger T-shirts and chanting
Beat The Heat every
chance they could, the Pac-
ers pushed their lead to 69-
55 after three and then held
off one brief run by the Heat
in the fourth quarter.

will go another year without a
Triple Crown winner. Ill Have
Another has assumed the role
held by Animal Kingdom last
year, and Motion is determined
to deny the Derby winner from
making it two in a row.
Were going to try our best to
make sure it doesnt happen,
Motion said. Were going to
make it hard for him. Lets put it
that way.
Motion has been operating in
relative obscurity this week
while Ill Have Another trainer
Doug ONeill and Bob Baffert,
trainer of Preakness favorite Bo-
demeister, are attracting much of
the attention.
Im more comfortable being
under the radar, Motion said.
He did, however, acknowledge
that last year was far more excit-
ing.
You come to the Preakness
with the Derby winner, thats
pretty cool. It doesnt get any bet-
ter than that, he said. Im more
relaxed about it because the Tri-
ple Crown is over for us.
Barry Irwin heads the syndi-
cate that owns Went the Day
Well. That same syndicate own-
ed Animal Kingdom, so Irwin
can certainly sympathize with
the way Motion is feeling this
week.
It was not fun, Irwin said.
But the horse, he just got too far
back. ... Sure, Id liked to have
won, but he ran second. He ran a
good race. I was happy. I was
proud of him.
Irwin is excited about Satur-
days race, but nothing can dupli-
cate the feeling he had before last
years Preakness.
Its more intense because you
know everybodys concentrating
on it and focusing on it, he said.
Its not just me and my partners,
its everybody. So that adds a lay-
er of tension to it.
Irwin hopes Bodemeister and
Ill Have Another get into a speed
duel and fade toward the finish of
the 1 3/16th mile race, providing
Went the Day Well the opportu-
nity to swoop in and steal a victo-
ry.
In the best of all possible
worlds, I think Bodemeister, that
Derby race has got to tell some-
thing on him, Irwin said. You
cant run as fast and as hard as he
did and not have it affect you. Ill
Have Another, if he wants to win
the Triple Crown or win the
Preakness, the onus is on him to
go after Bodemeister. And if both
those things happen, and my
horse breaks cleanly, I hopefully
will be the beneficiary.

GLADSTONE, N.J. De-
fending champion Suzann
Pettersen didnt last long at
the Sybase Match Play Cham-
pionship, and neither did three
well-known Americans.
The third-ranked Pettersen
was eliminated 3 and 1 by
relative unknown Jodi Ewart
of England on Thursday in the
first round of the LPGA Tour
event, while Paula Creamer,
Brittany Lincicome and Mi-
chelle Wie lost to some equal-
ly obscure fellow Americans.
Creamer, the No. 8 seed,
was beaten 2 and 1 by Jennifer
Johnson, the No. 57 seed. No.
9 seed Lincicome was ousted
2 and 1 by No. 56 Ryann
OToole. The 20th-seeded Wie
was knocked out by No. 45
Mina Harigae, 3 and 2.
Yani Tseng, Na Yeon Choi
and Cristie Kerr, the worlds
Nos. 1, 2 and 5 players, barely
advanced to the second round,
while the day ended with No.
4 ranked Ai Miyazato being
surprised 2-up by Mariajo
Uribe in the final match at
Hamilton Farm Golf Club.
Byron Nelson Championship
IRVING, Texas Ryan
Palmer shot a bogey-free 6-
under 64 to take the first-
round lead in the Byron Nel-
son Championship, a year after
losing a playoff to Keegan
Bradley in the event.
Marc Leishman and Alex
Cejka were a stroke back. Matt
Kuchar, coming off a victory
Sunday in The Players Cham-
pionship last weekend, was
two strokes back at 66 along
with Scott Piercy, Charley
Hoffman, Bill Lunde, Blake
Adams, Dicky Pride and
Andres Gonzales.
Last year, Palmer birdied the
72nd hole to force a playoff,
then hit his approach on the
first extra hole into the green-
side water and lost to Bradley,
who opened his title defense
with a 67.
Phil Mickelson, back at the
Nelson for the first time in
five years, shot a 70.
Volvo World Match Play
Championship
CASARES, Spain Three
days after his flight to Spain
made an emergency landing
because a passenger had a
heart attack, American Brandt
Snedeker used borrowed irons
and a putter from the pro
shop to win his opener in the
World Match Play Champion-
ship.
Because his luggage got lost,
Snedeker also used a driver
lent to him by Australian rival
John Senden. Starting out with
just 10 clubs in a replacement
bag, Snedeker managed to
beat Thomas Bjorn 5 and 4.

Defending champ falls
on day full of upsets
The Associated Press
ATHENS, Greece The
Olympic torch was passed to
London witnessed, appropri-
ately, by hundreds of Greeks
huddled under umbrellas.
Seeking some relief from the
countrys economic and political
woes, Greeks sat on the stone
steps of the ancient stadium in
Athens on Thursday to watch
the ceremonial handover of the
Olympic flame to the organizers
of the 2012 London Olympics.
They cheered the Greek na-
tional anthem. They cheered 88
schoolchildren belting out God
save the Queen. They went nuts
when U.K. soccer star David
Beckham was announced.
But they really roared when
they saw the fire.
The flame belongs to the
world, London Olympic chair-
manSebastianCoesaid. Thear-
rival of the flame in the host na-
tion is a clarion call to the ath-
letes and young people in more
than 200 nations and territories
preparing to gather for the Lon-
don 2012 Games.
There were jokes about the
pouring rain more London
than Athens surely with Lon-
don Mayor Boris Johnson josh-
ing that everyone would just
have to get used to it. But the
clouds actuallypushedbackfor a
few short minutes, giving the
robed dancers, the drummers
and the decorative Greek guards
a chance to parade around, pom-
pom shoes bouncing.
The flame was passed. No
soaked cauldron.
Once the flame is lit, for all in-
tents and purposes, the Games
start, Coe told reporters.
The flame was lit last week at
the Temple of Hera in Olympia,
and has been making its way
aroundGreece ina relay. Despite
a political crisis, a financial deba-
cle and the unusual weather,
Greeks were heartened by their
eternal link to the Olympics.
I amGreek and I amproud to
be Greek, said Konstantina
Giannpoulos, 27, a drenched
physical education teacher who
clutched a plastic blue-and-
white Greek flag. I want to hon-
or my country.
Beckham headlined the U.K.
dignitaries attending the twi-
light ceremony and there was a
hearty guffaw among Britons as
he was introducedincorrectly
as Sir David. He is not a
knight.
Princess Anne, a former Brit-
ish Olympic equestrian, took
possession of the fire.
The eyes of the world are
swiveling to London, Johnson
said with delight.
The handover also marked a
poignant moment for Greece as
well. Greeks liketopoint out that
the Olympics while terrific
were not the only enduring con-
cept they dreamed up.
Dominique Molin, a 52-year-
old former French teacher who
ventured out to see Princess
Anne tour a center where horses
are used to help disabled chil-
dren, noted that Europe absorb-
ed many ideas championed by
the ancient Greeks like de-
mocracy to say nothing of
honoring its art and culture.
And even despite their eco-
nomic hardships, the majority of
Greeks in a recent poll say they
want to stay in the 17-nation eu-
rozone.
We belong to Europe, Molin
said. We want to be part of it.
She thought the torch relay
helpedthecountrys batteredim-
age.
It shows that there are things
still working here, she said.
The flame will fly Friday
with its own seat and security
agent on British Airways
Flight 2012, an Airbus painted
gold at the nose. Shielded in a
miners lantern, the flame will
first land at a naval air station in
Cornwall, before the Royal Navy
flies it toLands End, thefurthest
point west in England.
Once in Britain, the Olympic
torch heads off Saturday on a 70-
day relay an Anglophiles
dream tour that ventures
through hill and dale to embrace
everything from cool Britannia
to Stonehenge. The journey
ends at Londons Olympic Stadi-
um for the July 27 opening cere-
mony.
Some 8,000 torchbearers will
carry the fire, mostly local peo-
ple who have worked to better
their communities. Olympic or-
ganizers hope that by giving the
torch to community heroes, they
will bring the spirit of the games
to a country not necessarily will-
ing to receive it.
The London Olympics has
cost 9.3billionpounds ($14.6bil-
lion) a large sumfor a country
grappling with economic auster-
ity and some in Britain worry
about what happens when the
games end Aug. 12. The future of
the massive Olympic stadium, in
particular, remains in doubt.
Coe acknowledges there are
still many tasks to conquer and
questions to resolve. He says the
choice of the final torchbearer
hasnt even been discussed yet.
But there is one person you
can cross off that list. Coe, a for-
mer gold medalist, says it wont
be him.

US picks womens Olympic water polo team
LOS ANGELES Four-time Olympians Brenda Villa and Heather
Petri are among 13 athletes selected for the U.S. womens water
polo team for the London Games.
The roster announced Thursday includes three collegiate players
from Stanford Annika Dries, Melissa Seidemann and Maggie
Steffens, all of whom will be making their Olympic debuts. The trio
didnt enroll in school this year so they could train with the U.S.
team.
Villa and Petri have helped the U.S. to medals at every Olympics
since womens water polo was added to the schedule in 2000. The
U.S. earned a silver in Sydney, a bronze at the 2004 Athens Games
and a silver four years ago in Beijing.
The Americans open the Olympic tournament on July 30 against
Hungary.

The 24th and final District 2 girls
spring soccer tournament begins today
as 10 teams vie for the crown.
Heres a synopsis of each team in the
postseason. The number in front of
each team is its district seed.
THE FAVORITES
Coughlin and Dallas each own six
district titles, the most of any schools.
Coughlin has made a record 11 cham-
pionship game appearances in the 23
title games since 1993. (The PIAA had
two classes from 2007-2010).
Both teams have proven to be the
class of the WVC this season and come
in as the biggest favorites for the final
D2 girls spring soccer title.
No. 1 Dallas (11-2): The Mountain-
eers have the best one-two punch in
the WVC with Ashley Dunbar (31 g, 18
a) and Colleen McDonald (11 g, 9 a), a
Drexel recruit. Vanessa Parsons (7 g, 13
a) is also there, making the Mountain-
eers very strong offensively.
The defense, which was hit hard by
graduation, has been a pleasant sur-
prise. Keeper Gabby Oliveri has filled
in admirably for the injured Amber
Yang. The unit has allowed four goals
once, two goals just twice and has
pitched five shutouts.
No. 2 Coughlin (10-2-1): The Crusad-
ers have won 10 in a row, including
handing Dallas its only loss 1-0 in over-
time.
The offense struggled early, but has
found its rhythm with Ivy Nulton (15
g), Megan Lercara (6 g) and Nora Fazzi
(12 a) leading the way.
The defense keeper Amanda Sax
along with fullbacks Grace Fazzi, Lind-
sey Humanick, Marissa Lercara, Bailey
Novak, Stephanie Yankoski and Sara
Zbierski has been excellent since a
6-1 loss to Crestwood in the third game
of the season.
NEXT IN LINE
Berwick enters as the defending
champion and also won the Class 3A
title in 2008. Crestwood has made one
appearance in a title game, losing 2-1 to
Coughlin in 2004. Lehman won the
title in 1998 and lost 3-1 to Council
Rock for the state title.
This years versions of the three are
capable of winning the district crown,
but might need a break or two along
the way.
No. 3 Berwick (9-3-1): Berwick is
very strong on the defensive interior
with Bridget Orlando and Kelly Shep-
tock in front of veteran keeper Sarah
Wilczynski. The unit has six shutouts
and has seemed to overcome a 6-0
pasting by Dallas in the seasons sec-
ond game.
The Dawgs problem is offense
where theyve struggle to make up for
the loss of Times Leader Player of the
Year Becca Jaffin, who was also a four-
time Times Leader All-WVC selection.
However, the talent is there and if they
can put it together they can be a tough
out.
No. 4 Crestwood (8-5): The Comets
trouble, as noted by first-year coach
Russ Kile, is playing consistent soccer
for 80 minutes. That has shown
throughout the season where they are
4-5 against postseason qualifiers.
The offense has loads of talent in
Sarah Andrews (8 g, 7 a), Hannah
Coffin (8 g, 2 a), Morgan Kile (5 g, 11
a), Gabby Termini (20 g, 11 a) and
Olivia Termini (11 g, 10 a). The de-
fense, though, must tighten up to ad-
vance far.
No. 5 Lake-Lehman (10-3): The Divi-
sion 1-B champion had only one real
hiccup this season, a 6-1 loss to Dallas.
The Black Knights 2-1 victory over
Berwick was the only by a Division 1-B
playoff team over a 1-A playoff team
during the regular season.
Sophomore Shoshana Mahoney was
slowed by minor injuries last season,
but has made up for it with 21 goals.
The midfield is a strength with senior
Nikki Sutliff (1 g, 4 a), and sophomores
Kaylee Hillard (2 g, 8 a) and Emily
Sutton (6 g, 9 a). The defense has been
solid except for a couple occasions.
REST OF THE FIELD
Although there are some impressive
records and impressive players among
this bunch, getting to the title game
will be a challenge for all five. Hazleton
Area is the only team among them to
play for a district championship.
No. 6 Delaware Valley (6-7): One
opposing coach said DelVal could be a
dangerous team in the postseason.
That could be true. The Warriors lost
to Berwick in overtime and only 3-1 to
Dallas. There are a few missteps,
though, namely a 8-1 loss to Crestwood
and a 4-1 setback to Coughlin.
DelVals offense runs through three
players Kyrsten Brockmann (10 g, 3
a), Anna Chamberlain (6 g) and Kelly
Cappello (5 g, 2 a). Stopping the trio
will go a long way to stopping the
Warrriors season.
No. 7 Wyoming Area (10-2-1): Its
been an interesting season for the
Division 2-B champion, which is on its
third head coach in as many seasons.
The Warriors played seven games de-
cided by one goal, winning six of them.
Wyoming Area doesnt have the
consummate go-to player, but has three
girls who have the knack of scoring
timely goals Jenna Skirnak (14 g),
Jenn Bone (12 g) and Valerie Bott (10
g).
No. 8 Pittston Area (10-3): The Patri-
ots won the Division 2-A title, with two
losses coming by one goal. The defense
has been very solid, allowing more
than two goals twice, but has been
overshadowed by an excellent combi-
nation on offense.
Freshman Allie Barber has 36 goals
and three assists. Veteran midfielder
Liz Mikitish has nine goals and eight
assists.
No. 9 North Pocono (8-5-1): It will be
interesting to see how much gas is left
in the tank tomorrow at Pittston Area.
The Trojans played two double-over-
time games this week, defeating Ha-
nover Area in a shootout to make the
postseason.
North Poconos forte is defense. The
Trojans have seven shutouts and
looked strong down the right side with
midfielder Mallorie Deschaine and
outside fullback Lizzy Lisiecki.
No. 10 Hazleton Area (4-8-1): Its
been an up-and-down season for the
Cougars. They lost by a goal to Cough-
lin, by two goals to Berwick and Leh-
man and defeated DelVal. But they also
lost to Holy Redeemer and tied Wyom-
ing Valley West, two teams that com-
bined to win four games all season.
The Cougars have been solid defen-
sively, but their 17 goals scored are the
fewest by any playoff team. Krista
Leitner leads the team with five goals.
Monica Baranko and Nicole Semenza
have three each.

Dallas and Coughlin are on a collision course
By JOHN ERZAR
jerzar@timesleader.com
WASHINGTON During another
seven grueling hours of cross-examin-
ation that frustrated all sides, Roger
Clemens accuser explained the evi-
dence he kept in a beer can and why
his story about it has changed.
Brian McNamee was on the stand
Thursday for a fourth day in the perjury
trial of the seven-time Cy Young Award-
winning pitcher, holding firm to his tes-
timony that he injected Clemens with
steroids from 1998 to 2001 and human
growth hormone in 2000.
But Clemens longtime strength
coach again conceded that his memory
of some details has evolved over the
years, and that he initially told some lies
during the drugs-in-baseball investiga-
tionconductedby federal agents andfor-
mer Sen. George Mitchell.
Whether the jurors were still keeping
track is another matter: They again ex-
pressed concern about the agonizingly
slowpace of a trial that still has weeks to
go, and the judge opined that Clemens
lawyer was confusing everybody.
At this pace, U.S. District Judge Reg-
gie Walton said, Ill guess well be here
forever.
Clemens lawyer Rusty Hardin tried to
exploit McNamees inconsistencies,
even if it meant taking the case far afield
from the principle issue of whether
Clemens actually used performance-en-
hancing drugs. The former baseball star
is accused of lying when he testified to
Congress in 2008 that he never used ste-
roids or HGH.

Versa to buy newspapers
An affiliate of Philadelphia-based
private equity firm Versa Capital Man-
agement LLC has reached an agree-
ment to purchase four newspapers
from Freedom Communications.
The papers included in the deal are:
The Telegraph in Alton, Ill., The Jour-
nal-Courier in Jacksonville, Ill., The
Sedalia Democrat in Sedalia, Mo., and
The Lima News in Lima, Ohio. Versa
owns Impressions Media, the parent
company of The Times Leader, Go
Lackawanna, the Dallas Post and sever-
al other publications and news web-
sites. Last year the company also pur-
chased Ohio Community Media, which
operates 14 daily newspapers, 30 week-
lies and a collection of shoppers and
niche publications, as well as various
online applications.
The transaction, terms of which
were not disclosed, is expected to close
within the next 30 days.
With their commitment to provid-
ing the accurate and timely informa-
tion that their communities want and
deserve, these properties showcase,
through the hard work of their associ-
ates, what community journalism is all
about. We believe that commitment
and tradition will be carried on by the
new ownership, said Freedom CEO
Mitch Stern.
We are very pleased to have reached
an agreement to acquire the assets of
Freedoms Central Division to add to
our growing platform of community
newspaper assets, including Ohio Com-
munity Media, said Gregory L. Segall,
CEO of Versa Capital Management.
Buffett returns to news
Billionaire Warren Buffetts company
is making another foray into newspa-
pers, agreeing to buy 63 newspapers
from Media General Inc. for $142 mil-
lion.
Berkshire Hathaway Inc. is also ex-
tending a loan to Media General and
taking a 19.9 percent stake in the com-
pany, which will still own 18 TV sta-
tions. Media General said the deal
includes all of its newspapers except
the Tampa Tribune of Florida and
smaller newspapers in that market.
Sears earning a profit
Sears Holdings Corp. said Thursday
it returned to a profit in the first quar-
ter as it benefited from a gain on the
sale of underperforming stores.
The Hoffman Estates, Ill., company,
which runs Sears, Kmart and Lands
End, said it earned $189 million, or
$1.78 per share, for the period ended
April 28.

NEWYORKFacebook has priced
its initial public offeringof stockat $38
per share, at the high end of its expect-
ed range. It means investor demand is
strong for the worlds largest online so-
cial network.
Facebook Inc. and its early investors
nowstand to reap as much as $18.4 bil-
lion from the IPO, if the extra shares
reserved to cover additional demand
are sold as part of the transaction.
Without the extra shares, the offering
raises $16 billion. The IPO values the
company at around $104 billion, above
Amazon.com, Disney and Kraft.
The offering is shaping up to be one
of the largest in history a big payoff
for a company that started out eight
years ago with no way to make money.
The $38 price tag is what the invest-
ment banks orchestrating the offering
will sell the stock to their clients. Face-
books stock is expected to begin trad-
ing on the Nasdaq Stock Market some-
time Friday morning under the ticker
symbol FB. Thats when so-called re-
tail investors can try to buy the stock.
Facebook is the third-highest valued
company to ever go public, according
to data from Dealogic, a financial data
provider. Only the two Chinese banks
have been worth more.
For the Harvard dorm-born social
network that reimagined how people
communicate online, the stock sale
means more money tooperate the data
centers that holdthe trove of status up-
dates, photos and videos shared by
Facebooks 900 million users. It means
more money to hire the best engineers
to work at its sprawling Menlo Park,
Calif., headquarters, or in New York
City, where it opened an engineering
office last year.
And it means early investors, who
took a chance seeding the young social
network with start-up funds six, seven
and eight years ago, can reap big re-
wards. Peter Thiel, the venture capital-
ist who sits on Facebooks board of di-
rectors, invested $500,000 in the com-
pany back in 2004. Hes selling nearly
17 million of his shares in the IPO,
which means hell get about $640 mil-
lion.

Once colder weather returns later
this year, UGI Penn Natural Gas cus-
tomers will pay less to heat their
homes as the utility passes along the
lower wholesale cost of the fuel.
UGI Penn Natural Gas said Thurs-
day the average residential heating
customers bill will drop by 4.5 per-
cent onDec. 1pendingapproval by the
Pennsylvania Public Utility Commis-
sion of the utilitys purchased gas cost
rate or what it pays for the natural gas.
The utility that serves approximate-
ly 158,000 customers in13 counties in
northeastern and central Pennsylva-
nia will file its annual rate on June1. It
can adjust the cost quarterly in re-
sponse to market fluctuations.
UGI Penn Natural Gas and other
utilities do not mark up the price they
pay for the fuel andpass along the pur-
chased cost to their customers.
The cost has been trending lower in
part due to natural gas production
from the Marcellus Shale, said Vicki
O. Ebner, senior vice president, cus-
tomer and government relations with
the utility. Monthly bills for UGI Penn
Natural Gas customers are 40 percent
lower than four years ago.
Accordingtothe utility, the bill for a
typical residential retail heating cus-
tomer using approximately 89
hundred cubic feet of natural gas a
month will decrease to $90.25 from
$94.50.
Likewise, commercial and industri-
al retail customers will pay less.
Accordingtothe utility, the bill for a
typical commercial retail customer us-
ing 26.2 thousand cubic feet a month
will decrease to $214.31from$226.33.
The bill for a typical industrial retail
customer using 405 thousand cubic
feet a month will decrease to
$2,844.19 from $3,029.12.

NEW YORK Wal-Marts U.S. busi-
ness finally got its groove back.
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. reported a 10.1
percent increase in first-quarter profit
that beat Wall Street estimates as its re-
emphasis on low prices drove bargain-
hungry U.S. shoppers into its stores.
The worlds largest retailer also offered
an upbeat profit outlook for the current
quarter, and its shares rose 4 percent.
The strong results signal a turn-
around at Wal-Marts U.S. business,
which had suffered during the econom-
ic downturn as its core low-income cus-
tomers were hit hard by joblessness
and other challenges. Adding to that,
the business, which accounts for 62
percent of Wal-Marts total net sales,
had made some mistakes in veering
away from its everyday low prices
strategy and getting rid of popular mer-
chandise.
But last year, the Bentonville, Ark.-
based company started re-focusing on
low prices and restocking 10,000 of ba-
sic products from food to fishing gear.
As a result, its namesake U.S. business
turned in its best performance in three
years. Customer traffic was up for the
second quarter in the row. And its
clothing business posted its first sales
gain in six years as shoppers snapped
up underwear and jeans.
Sales at Wal-Marts U.S. division rose
5.9 percent to $66.34 billion. Revenue
at stores opened at least a year con-
sidered a key measure of a retailers
health because it excludes the impact
from stores that open and close during
the year rose 2.6 percent in the divi-
sion. Thats above the 1.4 percent esti-
mate from Wall Street and the third
consecutive quarterly gain.
Wal-Marts U.S. business clearly
turned the corner in the first quarter,
said Charles Holley, chief financial offi-
cer in a call with reporters.
We are very pleasedwithour start of
this year, said Holley in a call with re-
porters. You are seeing momentum.
The companys U.S. business wasnt
the only division that posted revenue
gains. Overall, net sales excluding
membership fees from Sams Club rose
8.6 percent to $112.2 billion, beating
the $110.5 billion Wall Street was ex-
pecting. Sales at Sams Club rose 7.9
percent to $13.85 billion.

Today will be
another stun-
ning day and in
my view, end up
being one of the
top ten nicest
days of the year.
My condence
level is also high
with issuing a
guarantee youll
be satised with
tomorrows
weather as well.
Indeed we can
expect more
intense sunshine
filtered through
some cloudiness,
and afternoon
highs will flirt
with 80. With a
stormalong the
coast, Sunday
may not be
sunny but still
theres a good
chance for the
dry weather to
continue. Some
rain could arrive
on Monday. To
date, our rainfall
this year is 11.8
less than last
year.
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: A storm system will be responsible for scattered showers and thunderstorms
from the northern and central Rockies into the northern and central Plains. Much of Florida and the
southeast part of Georgia will have a chance of thunderstorms, while a few showers and storms can
be expected over the Outer Banks of North Carolina.
