Child abuse attorney not trained By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Luzerne County has lost out on potentially thousands of dollars in state reimbursements because an attorney who represented children in abuse cases did not obtain training required by the state.

President says U.S. will attack Iran to prevent nuclear bomb. By ANNE GEARAN AP National Security Writer

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama delivered his most explicit threat yet that the United States will attack Iran if that’s what it takes to prevent it from developing a nuclear bomb. At the same time, he warned Israelis they would only make a bad situation worse if they moved preemptively against Iranian nuclear facilities. Obama The double-barreled warning, in an interview published Friday, came before Obama’s highstakes meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Monday and a speech Sunday to the American-Israel Public Affairs Committee, a powerful pro-Israeli lobby. Obama said an Israeli strike would stir sympathy for the Islamic republic in a region where it has few allies. But he made clearer than before that Iran could face attack from the United States. “I think both the Iranian and the Israeli governments recognize that when the United States says it is unacceptable for Iran to have a nuclear weap-

Sandusky seeking more details

Former Penn State coach says prosecutors haven’t given him enough to build a defense. By ANDREW McGILL The Morning Call

Jerry Sandusky wants more details about his accusers, saying Friday that prosecutors haven’t given him enough to build a defense. In court documents, Sandusky’s attorney Joseph Amendola asked prosecutors to further explain the dates and times of the charges against him, the locations of his alleged crimes and the names of any potential bystanders. Sandusky, a former Penn State football coach who founded the Second Mile youth charity, is charged with 52 counts of molesting children over the past two

decades. Responding to a judge’s order, prosecutors supplied the first "bill of particulars" Thursday, listing the chargSandusky es against the coach, rough time spans of the incidents and his accusers’ ages. Saying some accusers were too young to remember details - the document lists victims as young as 8 - state attorneys didn’t provide specific dates. Without more information on the context of the alleged crimes, Amendola says his client can’t verify alibis, determine if the statute of limitations has passed or pursue double jeopardy claims. Judge John M. Cleland previously supported Sandusky’s request for information. However,

pshitut@timesleader.com

he agreed the prosecution had the right to withhold details of crimes and potential witnesses’ names, saying that’s a matter for later in the court process. In response, Amendola tweaked his request Friday, asking for the identity of people "who were present at the location or in close proximity thereto (at the Defendant’s home, etc.) when the alleged activity occurred." He also wants to know about special events surrounding the incidents, including football games. Amendola could not be reached for comment. Earlier this week, Cleland denied Sandusky’s request for a July trial, scheduling opening arguments for May 14 instead. The former coach, who maintains his innocence, says he needs more time to sift through the evidence against him.

Feds lose appeal on Katrina damage cases A 2009 decision had found the Corps of Engineers negligent in its construction work. By MICHAEL KUNZELMAN Associated Press

NEW ORLEANS — A federal appeals court on Friday upheld a judge’s landmark ruling that the Army Corps of Engineers is liable for property owners’ claims, agreeing the shoddy work on a shipping channel caused billions of dollars in damage from Hurricane Katrina’s storm surge.

A three-judge panel from the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals rejected the federal government’s argument that it is entitled to immunity from lawsuits blaming Katrina’s flood damage on the corps’ operation and maintenance of the Mississippi River-Gulf Outlet, a New Orleans navigation channel. The federal government had asked the 5th Circuit to reverse a 2009 decision by U.S. District Judge Stanwood Duval, who ruled that flooding in St. Bernard Parish and New Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward was a manmade disaster created by the corps’ negligence.

The 5th Circuit praised Duval for his “impressive” rulings and lauded his “careful attention to the law and even more cautious scrutiny of complex facts.” Duval awarded a total of nearly $720,000 in damages to five plaintiffs who sued. The corps also has received roughly 500,000 administrative claims that could become fodder for similar suits. Plaintiffs’ attorney Joe Bruno said he expects the government to ask the full 5th Circuit to review the case. They could also appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court.

WILKES-BARRE – A Luzerne County judge on Friday ruled on a number of requests in the homicide case of two Hazleton men scheduled to stand trial on March 26. Angel Sanchez, 20, and Rodolfo Hiraldo Perez, 25, are charged in the stabbing death of 21-year-old Vladimir Ruiz in January 2011. Judge David Lupas on Friday denied a request to have the men’s trial severed as well as a request to individually question jurors by defense attorneys. Lupas also ruled prosecutors may present evidence of an altercation earlier in the week between Sanchez, Perez and Ruiz.

Defense says prosecution has no case on corruption of minors charge

KINGSTON TWP. – Simply kissing a 16-year-old girl and having consensual sex with a 17-year-old girl does not rise to the level of corrupting minors, two lawyers said in defense of their client. For more than two hours at a preliminary hearing on Friday, Robert Zanicky, 38, of Butler Township, listened to testimony that he allegedly showered the two girls with money, gifts and dinners. The two girls claimed that in an attempt to persuade them into having sex at a

Wilkes-Barre motel, Zanicky told them his wife was dying of cancer. The younger teen claimed Zanicky kissed her inside a motel room before she Zanicky pushed him away and ran outside. The older girl, now 18, admitted she had sex with Zanicky at the same motel. Zanicky’s attorneys, Edward Olexa and William Ruzzo, said the testimony

did not meet the threshold for corruption of minors. District Judge James Tupper thought otherwise, sending two counts of the offense to Luzerne County Court. Zanicky remains free on $25,000 bail. At the end of the hearing, an angered mother of one of the girls was stopped by police from approaching Zanicky. “You can stare at him any way you want, just don’t go by him,” an officer told the mother. Zanicky’s attorneys feel they have a good chance at securing an acquittal.

WILKES-BARRE – A Nanticoke bar owner sued in two lawsuits stemming from a New Year’s Day slashing should not be given the chance to request the suits be thrown out after filing a request to do so too late, those who filed the suits claim. David Selingo, an attorney for Ricky Wells, of Mountain Top, and Jennifer Mieczkowski, of Nanticoke, said in court papers filed this week that Paul Halliday, owner of the Prospect Street Café where his clients were injured, filed his preliminary objects to the suits 16 days past a filing deadline. The lawsuits have been filed in Luzerne County Court. Wells and Mieczkowski allege the bar and Halliday were negligent the night they were both injured at the bar. Wells alleges he was beaten with a pool stick, while Mieczkowski says her face was slashed by an underage patron during Earlier this week, the New Year’s Eve Halliday, through incident.

Defendant, Paul Halliday, failed to do so,” Selingo said in his filing in response to Halliday’s. The parties agreed in court papers that Halliday will be allowed to have additional time to file answers to the lawsuits.

Mieczkowski alleged a woman slashed her face after Mieczkowski went to the aid of a friend who fell off a bar stool. No arrests have yet been made, investigators have said. Wells alleges in the suit that he and Mieczkowski were at the tavern to pick up beer to take out when they saw some friends and decided to sit down with them and order a drink. Mieczkowski, the suit says, noticed a female friend get knocked off a bar stool, and went to her aid when she was assaulted.

Scandal brings changes

HENRYVILLE, Ind. — Powerful storms leveled small towns in southern Indiana, transforming entire blocks of homes into piles of debris, tossing school buses into a home and a restaurant and causing destruction so severe it was difficult to tell what was once there. As night fell, dazed residents shuffled through town, some looking for relatives, while rescue workers searched the rubble for survivors. Without power, the only light in town came from cars that crawled down the streets. From the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes, the storms touched nearly all walks of life. A fire station was flattened.

Roofs were ripped off schools. A prison fence was knocked down and scores of homes and businesses were destroyed. At least 28 people were killed, including 14 in Indiana and 12 in Kentucky, and dozens of others were hurt in the second deadly tornado outbreak this week. It wasn’t immediately clear how many people were missing. The threat of tornadoes was expected to last until late Friday for parts of Kentucky, Tennessee, Indiana and Ohio. Forecasters at the National Weather Service’s Storm Prediction Center said the massive band of storms put 10 million people at high risk of dangerous weather. In Henryville, the scene was eerie and somewhat chaotic. Cell phones and landlines were not working. Hundreds of firefighters and police zipped around town. Power lines were down and cars were flipped over. People walked down the street with shopping carts full of water and food, handing it out to whoever was in need.

Terry Brishaber said his uncle’s mobile home was gone. “I don’t see any remnants. I don’t know where it’s at,” he said. Aerial footage from a TV news helicopter flying over Henryville showed numerous wrecked houses, some with

their roofs torn off and many surrounded by debris. The video shot by WLKY in Louisville, Ky., also showed a mangled school bus protruding from the side of a one-story building and dozens of overturned semis strewn around the smashed remains of a truck stop.

ing blindfolds and classroom-made butter in the wake of a recent teacher sex scandal at an elementary school. The district sent a memo to principals Feb. 23 saying blindfolding might be negatively perceived because of the case involving Mark Berndt, who has pleaded not guilty to 23 counts of lewd conduct. He is accused of photographing students who were blindfolded as they ate cookies smeared with his semen, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday. Blindfolding is part of a fourth-grade reading program designed to teach students sensory details. In pairs, one student is blindfolded and handed an object, and the blindfolded child answers the partner’s questions about the object. Butter-making has also been banned at one school because students ate the finished product on crackers.Some educators question whether the district is going overboard in its response to the actions of one teacher.

PYONGYANG, NORTH KOREA

Nuclear deal questioned A nuclear deal with the United States may have raised hopes that tensions on the Korean peninsula could ease soon, but rare interviews Friday by The Associated Press with Pyongyang residents suggest deep cynicism of U.S. intentions. The U.S.-North Korea announcement of an agreement to freeze North Korea’s nuclear activities in exchange for food aid was seen in Washington as a promising first step toward discussing nuclear disarmament. But in North Korea’s capital, where citizens are taught from childhood to hate Americans, skepticism ran deep. “I heard the news, but I’m not very excited,” Jong Yun Hui, 43, told the AP. “I have no faith in the U.S.,” she said. North Koreans are subject to daily propaganda, and the views of those interviewed often reflect what is said by the government. LA PAZ, BOLIVIA

Reputed ring boss pleads The alleged mastermind behind the so-called Bling Ring celebrity burglary scheme pleaded no contest Friday to stealing from the homes of Lindsay Lohan and Audrina Patridge, prosecutors said. Nicholas Prugo, 21, entered his plea to two counts of first-degree residential burglary in a deal in which he will testify against three other members of the Bling Ring, prosecutors said. The ring of teens and 20-somethings is accused of netting more than $3 million in jewelry, designer clothes and accessories in 2008 and 2009 when they targeted the homes of Orlando Bloom, Brian Austin Green, Megan Fox and Paris Hilton, as well as Lohan and Patridge.

Ohio proving GOP battleground

Mitt Romney is spending a lot of campaign money, though a poll shows Santorum with a slight lead. By STEVE PEOPLES and PHILIP ELIOTT Associated Press

WILLOUGHBY, Ohio — This state’s Super Tuesday primary is proving to be the perfect microcosm of the nation’s unruly race for the Republican presidential nomination: Mitt Romney is spending lots of money, Rick Santorum is aggressively courting conservatives and Newt Gingrich is counting on big ideas to swing votes his way. Of the 10 states weighing in on Tuesday, Ohio offers the hottest contest. And with its diverse population, reputation as a presidential battleground and preoccu-

pation with the same economic worries that 2012 nag the nation at large, ELECTION Ohio seems destined to foreshadow the shape of the campaign as it heads toward November. Despite the vast territory in play across the country, from Alaska and Idaho to Vermont, Virginia and Georgia, Romney will sleep in Ohio every night until Tuesday. It’s that important to him. North Dakota, Massachusetts, Oklahoma and Tennessee are the other Super Tuesday states. Even so, the race was playing out in similar fashion in the other states with contests Tuesday. The former Massachusetts governor and his allies were flooding the airwaves, outpacing his rivals in every Super Tuesday state except in North Dakota, where Santorum was

alone on the air but spending less than $8,000. Romney’s camp insists he does not need to win Ohio to get the presidential nomination or even to keep alive the expectation that he eventually will. Losing here, however, would drive persistent doubts about the strength of Romney’s candidacy. Figures provided to The Associated Press show Romney’s campaign is spending more than $1.5 million in television ads this week in Ohio and his allies are on the air with almost $1.5 million. In total, Romney and his supporters planned to spend more than $3.8 million on cable and broadcast television ads. Santorum and his allies are only spending $796,000 in total on Ohio. Yet a Quinnipiac University poll released Friday found Santorum with a slim lead over Romney in the state, 35 percent to 31 percent.

U.N. boss urges Syria to admit aid workers By ANITA SNOW Associated Press

UNITED NATIONS — Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon called on the Syrian government Friday to immediately give humanitarian workers access to people who desperately need aid. The U.N. chief spoke after government troops blocked a Red Cross convoy from delivering aid to an especially hardhit neighborhood in the besieged city of Homs. U.N. humanitarian chief Va-

lerie Amos has been attempting, without success, to get permission from the Syrian government to visit. Ban said President Bashar Assad’s regime should let Amos into the country to assess the situation without delay. “The images which we have seen in Syria are atrocious,” Ban told reporters several hours before reporting to the world body’s membership on the situation there. “It’s toAP PHOTO tally unacceptable, intolerable.

NEW YORK — Rush Limbaugh drew fire Friday from many directions, including President Barack Obama, for his depiction of a college student as a “slut” because she testified before Congress about the need for contraceptive coverage. The third-year Georgetown University law student, Sandra Fluke, received a supportive phone call from Obama, and was backed by members of Congress, women’s groups, and the Limbaugh administration and faculty at her Roman Catholic university. Calls for Limbaugh’s sponsors to pull their ads from his radio Fluke talk show rocketed through cyberspace, and at least two companies, bedding retailers Sleep Train and Sleep Number, said on their Twitter accounts that they were complying with the demands. Obama reached Fluke by phone as she was waiting to go on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports.” “What was really personal for me was that he said to tell my parents that they should be proud,” a choked-up Fluke told Mitchell. “And that meant a lot because Rush Limbaugh questioned whether or not my family would be proud of me. So I just appreciated that very much.” Fluke was given a chance to talk to Congress on Feb. 23, even though lawmakers were on a break and just a few Democratic allies were on hand to cheer her on. Fluke said that Georgetown, a Jesuit institution, does not provide contraception coverage in its student health plan and that contraception can cost a woman more than $3,000 during law school. She spoke of a friend who had an ovary removed because the insurance company wouldn’t cover the prescription birth control she needed to stop the growth of cysts. On Wednesday, Limbaugh unleashed a lengthy and often savage verbal assault on Fluke.

Harvard government professor James Q. Wilson is shown in Boston in 1972.

He was 80. Wilson wrote more than two dozen books on American government, criminal justice and moral issues.

weakening their defenses to major crime. Or, as Wilson and Kelling explained in deceptively simple terms: "One unrepaired broken window is a signal that no one cares, and so breaking more

windows costs nothing." "That’s where American policing was falling down on the job," William J. Bratton, who implemented the broken windows theory with dramatic success during his tenures as police

chief in New York in the 1990s and Los Angeles in the 2000s, said in an interview Friday. "Jim Wilson and George Kelling reshaped the way law enforcement thought about its role and staunchly defended the idea of proactive policing that focuses not only on preventing crime but disorder." The broken windows approach bolstered the rise of community policing, which emphasized a closer partnership between citizens and police and was embraced by law enforcement agencies across the country. The theory remains controversial. It alarms liberal critics who say it ignores the root causes of crime — factors such as poverty, racism and lack of economic opportunity. Other critics argue that broken windows strategies have not worked or unfairly target some populations. "A disproportionate number of minorities have been arrested, and police misconduct complaints have increased as stops, frisks and arrests for minor crimes have multiplied," Bernard E. Harcourt wrote in his 2003 book "Illusion of Order."

She claimed Zanicky frequently took her out to restaurants and gave her money, including cash for the morning after pill after she had sex with a teenage boy. She testified Zanicky drove her to a motel under the premise he wanted to talk about his ill wife. Instead, she claimed Zanicky kissed her. “I was really scared like he was going to kill me,” the girl testified. Upon questioning from Zanicky’s lawyers, the girl said she did not call for help and left with Zanicky, stopping for coffee before he dropped her off. The older teen testified she met Zanicky through her best friend and began exchanging text messages. “He asked me if I wanted to go to a motel room,” the older girl testified. “He said if he had sex with me, he would take care of me.” She said she met Zanicky outside the Wyoming Valley Mall and he drove to the motel and they had consensual sex. When questioned by Ruzzo, the girl said she had the opportunity to decline Zanicky’s advances but did not. She also admitted lying to police about the encounter.

W-B man gets 9-19 years in jail for burglaries, thefts, shooting Jerome Sharr apologizes to victims, in a letter read in court by his attorney. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A city man charged with multiple burglaries, thefts and a drive-by shooting in the Wyoming Valley was sentenced Friday to nine years, nine months to 19 years, eight months in state prison. Jerome Sharr, 21, of South Empire Street, was sentenced on 22 charges stemming from 18 different cases by Luzerne County Judge Tina Polachek Gartley. Sharr, who pleaded guilty to the charges in December, apologized to his victims Friday through a letter he wrote that was read by his attorney, Mark Bufalino.

“I’m old enough to know right from wrong,” Sharr wrote in his letter. “And my actions were dead wrong.” Sharr said the crimes he committed reflect what the media calls him – a thief and criminal – but that he is a better person than that. “He committed horrible, horrible acts,” Bufalino said. “But he’s not a horrible person.” Several of Sharr’s family members gave Polachek Gartley a glimpse into Sharr’s troubled childhood, and several incarcerations. Sharr, a father of two, is a good person, brother, son and father, they said. “People don’t see him, only what he’s done wrong,” Sharr’s sister, Danielle said. In an aggravated assault case, police say Sharr and another man were involved in a drive-by shoot-

ing in November 2008. Police said five or six shots were fired at a South Regent Street home. Police said several people, including a toddler, were in the house at the time of the shooting. No one was injured, police said. The victims in that case testified Friday that Sharr put his entire family in jeopardy by firing the gun at the house over a childish fight where two teens called Sharr names. Sharr had been charged recently with multiple burglary and theft-related charges by several police agencies in the Wyoming Valley. He was captured Dec. 30, 2010, hiding under a grill cover behind a house on Covell Street in Wilkes-Barre after a daylong search that began with an attempted traffic stop in Dallas. Dallas police accused Sharr of

abandoning a stolen vehicle from Nanticoke on state Route 415, breaking into a Sterling Avenue house through a window and stealing ignition keys to a Mitsubishi Montero. He abandoned the Mitsubishi on Covell Street. State police accused Sharr of three daylight home burglaries on Laurel Run Road, Forrest Road and Bear Creek Boulevard during September, stealing televisions, computers, jewelry and electronic equipment, according to the criminal complaints. He also had been charged with breaking into several homes in Hanover Township, Mountain Top, Larksville and Fairview Township. A victim of one of the break-ins testified Friday, urging Sharr to work hard to acquire his own possessions instead of breaking into hard-working peoples homes and taking theirs.

Juan Borbon is wanted by police in an attack near GAR High School last month.

By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

An extradition hearing will likely be scheduled next week in New Jersey for a man charged by Wilkes-Barre police with injuring a teenager with a machete outside GAR High School last month. Juan Borbon, 20, was apprehended by the U.S. Marshals in Passaic County on Thursday. Bill Maer, a spokesman for the Passaic County Sheriff’s Office, said an extradition hearing will likely be scheduled at the end of next week in Passaic County Court. By waiving an extradition hearing, it allows Wilkes-Barre police to return Borbon to Luzerne County on an arrest war-

rant charging him with aggravated assault, simple assault, reckless endangerment and criminal conBorbon spiracy. The charges were filed with District Judge Rick Cronauer on Feb. 22. Police allege he swung a machete that nearly severed the hand of 15-year-old Marquis Allen during a fight at South Grant and Lehigh streets on Feb. 9. Allen, a freshman at GAR, underwent surgery at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township. If Borbon fights extradition, the Luzerne County District Attorney’s Office will be required to obtain a governor’s warrant from Gov. Tom Corbett requesting New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie to release Borbon to the custody of Wilkes-Barre police.

institutions in the State System of Higher Education – including East Stroudsburg and Bloomsburg. Corman said he hopes the Legislature can restore funding to state universities and state-related schools so they don’t become, in his words, “barely related.” That had to be music to the ears of university presidents, whose allocations were the subject of budget hearings in Harrisburg this week. Those same administrators had to like Corman’s calculations, which estimated that Pennsylvania students at state-related schools save $1.3 billion in annual tuition in return for a state contribution to their schools of almost $500 million. Nobody is saying the task of finding more money for higher education will be easy in lean times, but Corman has correctly framed the work ahead. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

uzerne County Council should explore mothballing and stabilizing the former Hotel Sterling in Wilkes-Barre. Preserving the building will give us about 25 years to find funding to develop and utilize the building. In that timeframe, the economy should boom once again. When the economy is healthy, several investors probably will come forward and develop the building, and then we will have something historic and worthwhile. Demolishing the building will leave an empty lot that will still cost millions to develop. The prudent option might be to preserve the building and develop it when the economy is brisk and expanding.

Writer supports bill opposing gun tracking

State universities I find funding ally ENNSYLVANIA’S stateowned and state-related universities have attracted an influential ally in their opposition to Gov. Tom Corbett’s proposed budget cuts of as much as 30 percent. It might be no big surprise when a lawmaker whose district encompasses the main campus of Penn State University speaks out on their behalf, but Sen. Jake Corman of Centre County also is a Republican, like the governor. And he holds the powerful position of chairman of the Senate’s Appropriations Committee. That’s why it was significant when Corman said he’s concerned the governor’s budget could hurt the missions of the 14 state-owned universities and state-related Penn State, the University of Pittsburgh, Temple and Lincoln universities. That mission includes serving Pennsylvanians by charging them lower tuition than out-of-state students who attend state-related

SEND US YOUR OPINION

recently wrote to U.S. Sens. Robert Casey and Pat Toomey to express my support for S.570, a bill to prohibit the Department of Justice from tracking and cataloguing the purchases of multiple rifles and shotguns. The bill would prohibit the use of federal funds needed to fund the multiple-sales reporting requirements. Devised by Attorney General Eric Holder’s Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the plan requires all of the 8,700 firearm dealers in California, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas to report all sales of two or more semi-automatic rifles within consecutive business days (if the rifles are larger than .22 caliber and use detachable magazines). In July, the Justice Department announced that it would proceed with the controversial reporting procedure. Yet much has transpired since then regarding the bureau’s failed “Operation Fast and Furious.” Evidence is now very clear that “Fast and Furious” was used as justification to force the multiple sales reporting requirements. In early December, CBS News reported that the bureau “discussed using their covert operation ‘Fast and Furious’ to argue for controversial new rules about gun sales.” In particular, agency officials apparently wanted guns to fall into Mexican drug cartels’ hands and be traced back to gun dealers in the United States. U.S. Sens. Jon Tester, D-Montana, and Richard Burr, R-N.C., introduced S.570. This bill has 33 sponsors. I am asking you, Sens. Casey and Toomey, to assist with this bill’s passing.

Women’s health care is their own business

t is frightening and hard to fathom that in 2012 we are still having the Catholic Church vs. Women and Contraception discussion. How much longer are women required to be second class within an institution that is run by men who are forbidden from having sex, and heavily influenced by a Republican Party that displays an obsession with targeting the female anatomy. When will Republican leaders such as presidential contender Rick Santorum cease encouraging Catholic bishops to determine health care for females under the guise of the constitutional right to religious freedom? What country are we in anyway? Shouldn’t an individual’s right to privacy, especially as related to health care issues, trump all else? Democrats and independents have their own “Pro-Choice American Woman Super PAC.” And though it might not be wealthy or officially recognized, it has demonstrated itself to be one of the strongest packs in the nation.

Gov’t regulations hinder casting company workers

ast week, U.S. Sen. Patrick Toomey visited our business, the Hazleton Casting Co. Our employees welcomed him during his brief visit, and he toured our facility, asking numerous questions about our manufacturing operations and the markets we serve. One of the main points of discussion was regulatory impediments to job creation and retention. Our criticism of our evergrowing regulatory burden is not an objection to safety and health regulations that protect our employees or to those laws that protect our environment. Furthermore, it is not a criticism of the good people from the agencies who carry out the mandates that are so important for quality-of-life issues in Northeastern Pennsylvania. On the contrary, we live and work together in our communities in a common

DOONESBURY

effort to improve the overall quality of life for all of the residents. A fundamental point of contention, used as an example, is a policy mandate generated in Washington, D.C., called a “medical access review.” This policy requires a massive and intrusive review of all past and present employee medical records, company records, accident reports, workers compensation reports and other medical and insurance information covering a two-year period. It concludes with private employee interviews during work hours. Ostensibly, we were the focus of this “national emphasis program,” because our accident record is lower than industry norms. At our two companies, Hazleton Casting Co. and Weatherly Casting & Machine Co., we were forced to undergo three of these intrusive, time-consuming investigations over an 18-month period. Of equal importance to us as a company – and in my belief, as a nation – are the regulatory impediments and decisions that are preventing the construction of the Keystone XL Pipeline from a “friendly” source of oil (Canadian oil sands) to U.S. refineries. The Keystone XL Pipeline has been under review for more than 40 months in Washington, regardless of the fact that we already have more than 25,000 miles of pipeline in the United States. Environmental Protection Agency rules are forcing the closure of numerous coalfired power plants across the country for mercury emissions while naturally occurring geological events such as volcanoes and geysers emit thousands of times more mercury. All of this is happening while we are installing mercury light bulbs in our homes without any similar environmental hysteria surrounding the efficient burning of our most abundant American source of fuel: coal. Yes, that is what 116 of my co-workers do in the Hazleton area – we make highly engineered parts for the efficient burning of carbon-based energy, plus parts used for pollution-control equipment, mining equipment and the cement industry. In addition, we have made castings for perimeter security at the Smithsonian Institution and structural support castings for several Washington, D.C., Metro stations. We have struggled in recent years, like many businesses, but we have received no federal bailout funds; and we look forward to playing our small part as a taxpayingAmerican entity for a bright economic future. Please, Washington, D.C., more common sense and fewer roadblocks to let us do our jobs. Michael Leib President Hazleton Casting Co. and Weatherly Casting & Machine Co.

Dems, GOP uniting in warning Iran about its nukes President Obama cautions Iran as Republican U.S. Sen. Toomey backs the effort.

By ANDREW M. SEDER aseder@timesleader.com

A U.S. Senate resolution introduced last month and supported by Sens. Bob Casey, D-Scranton and Pat Toomey, R-Zionsville, urges President Barack Obama to reaffirm the unacceptability of an Iran with nuclear weapons capability. Toomey’s announcement Friday that he backs the resolution

Toomey

came the same day Obama warned that he is not bluffing about attacking Iran if it builds a nuclear weapon. In the interview with The Atlantic magazine, according to the Associated Press, Obama explicitly referred to the possible use of military force and firmly reject-

ed the notion that the United States might settle for a strategy of deterring Iran from using nuclear weapons if it produces them. Those feelings were apparent in the bipartisan resolution known as Senate Resolution 380 introduced Feb. 18 by Sen. Lindsay Graham, R-S.C. Casey was one of the original co-sponsors. The resolution expressed the sense of the Senate regarding the importance of preventing the Iranian government from acquiring nuclear weapons capability. “Make no mistake: Iran is determined to acquire nuclear

weapons and will not be deterred by hollow warnings,” Toomey said Friday. “A nuclear-armed Iran is an unacceptable proposition, and, as President Obama said in his State of the Union address, ‘all options must remain on the table’ when it comes to stopping Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon.” According to a release issued by Toomey’s office, the resolution: • Strongly rejects any policy that fails to prevent the Iranian government from acquiring a nuclear weapons capability and settles for future efforts to ‘contain’ a

nuclear weapons-capable Iran. • Urges President Obama to reaffirm the unacceptability of an Iran with nuclear weapons capability and to oppose any policy that would rely on containment as an option in response to the Iranian nuclear threat. • Urges continued and increasing economic and diplomatic pressure on Iran until it agrees to the full and sustained suspension of all uranium enrichment-related and reprocessing activities, complete cooperation with the International Atomic Energy Agency on all outstanding questions related to its nuclear activ-

on, we mean what we say,” Obama told The Atlantic magazine. “I don’t bluff.” He said Iran and Israel both understand that “a military component” is among a mix of many options for dealing with Iran, along with sanctions and diplomacy, making plain a threat to attack that had previously been more subtly implied. The warning reveals how the threat that Iran could pose to Israel has eclipsed every other issue in the close but often contentious U.S. relationship with Israel, and raised the political stakes for Obama. Iran’s disputed nuclear ambitions dwarf the unfinished business of peace with the Palestinians and Obama’s sometimes testy relationship with Netanyahu. The White House dispute with Israel is about the risks versus the benefits of a military strike in the near term, not whether one is ever appropriate. The issue is infused with domestic politics in both the United States and Israel, and Obama is at pains to show American Jewish voters that he is not being harder on Israel than on Iran. “Every single commitment I have made to the state of Israel and its security, I have kept,” he said in the magazine interview. “Why is it that despite me never failing to support Israel on every single problem that they’ve had over the last three years, that there are still questions about that?” Obama then suggested an election-

President Barack Obama meets with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the United Nations. He said the U.S. could take military action to prevent Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon.

The warning reveals how the threat that Iran could pose to Israel has eclipsed every other issue in the close but often contentious U.S. relationship with Israel, and raised the political stakes for Obama. nizations, so the threat of proliferation becomes that much more severe. “ Israel has been publicly debating whether to launch air strikes on Iran’s known nuclear facilities in the next several months, before Israel judges that Iran’s program would be too far along to

to take it. “I thought I was exempt from it because I’ve been doing this so long. I thought it was for new guardians,” Bellino said. Bellino said was told by Castano of one training session held last year, but he did not learn about it until the last minute and could not attend due to a conflict. He said he assumed he could take it this year. “When (Castano) told me that was a requirement for reimbursement, I believed at that point I could get it this coming year,” he said. Children and Youth also has a

Weston described one young person dressed in red from cap to sneakers. “He looked more like a Crayola crayon than a gang member,” Weston said, adding that a nationally affiliated gang member wouldn’t show his colors in such an “over the top” fashion. Still, the men said, wannabes are dangerous because they might feel like they have something to prove and crave the attention that being in a gang can bring. Being pretenders can be dangerous for the wannabes because if they are not acknowledged by the national gang and don’t understand the dedi-

screamed the loudest had only one layoff or none,” Griffith said, mentioning the public defender, district attorney and prothonotary’s offices as examples. The prothonotary’s office lost one union employee through a voluntary layoff but still has both a manager and deputy. The district attorney will eliminate several vacant positions but had no layoffs. Chief Public Defender Al Flora cut funding he may need for expert witnesses and psychiatric evaluations to avoid layoffs, and he is asking the administration for permission to fill vacant positions. County Assessment Director Tony Alu said his remaining employees will try to absorb the du-

stop. The Obama administration argues that the time for a strike is farther away, and that there is still time to persuade Iran’s leaders to back down. Iran insists its nuclear program is for peaceful purposes. Israel wants U.S. backing for any military action against Iran, but has signaled it would go it alone if need be. Israeli officials have said they have made no decision yet, but the Obama-Netanyahu meeting comes amid a growing sense in Israel and in Washington that a strike is likely. Israeli officials appear unmoved by the U.S. arguments, and Obama is unlikely to talk Netanyahu out of launching

contract with North Penn Legal Services to provide two attorneys as guardian ad litems. Castano said he was able to seek reimbursement for their work because both of those attorneys had received the training. To date DPW has reimbursed the county $17,833 for the first quarter of fiscal year 2011-2012, according to deputy press secretary Ann Bale. The county spent a total of $66,252 with North Penn in the second quarter, which will be eligible for 50 percent reimbursement. That request has not yet been processed, Bale said.

cation or requirements involved, gang members in the area could “kill them or beat them senseless,” Koppenhofer said. Still, while gang violence is not spilling out onto the streets in the Wyoming Valley as it did in the 1970s in Los Angeles and other big cities, Koppenhofer said he predicts that will happen here within the next decade if area residents don’t begin taking action. When police crack down in the big cities, more and more gangs tend to gravitate to smaller towns that have fewer police resources, he said. In addition to supporting additional resources for police, Koppenhofer and Weston said people need to “know their neighbors, know what kind of cars they drive and report all suspicious activity to the police.”

Casey offered this statement on Friday: “Iran represents a serious threat to the U.S. and its allies and containing a nuclear-armed Iran is not a viable U.S. policy option. I support continued and increasing economic and diplomatic pressure on Iran to suspend all uranium enrichment and reprocessing activities and to fully cooperate with international nuclear inspectors.”

a strike if the Israeli leader decides not to wait. Both governments maneuvered Friday to set the terms for their discussion. Netanyahu warned the world Friday not to fall into the “trap” of renewed nuclear talks. Speaking in Canada, the hawkish Israeli leader said he not would set down “red lines” for Israeli or U.S. action on Iran — a reference to reports in Israel that the country intended to press the United States to set such demands. Until now, Obama has said a nuclear Iran is unacceptable but has not spelled out just what the U.S. would do or when. White House press secretary Jay Carney told reporters Friday that Obama does not intend to tip his hand to Iran about what lines it cannot cross because doing so would not be in U.S. interests. Three delegations of senior U.S. national security officials made the case against an Israeli strike in visits to that country over the past month. They argued that launching a strike before the last possible moment, and without international support, would do more harm than good. It could actually make Israel less safe by angering neighbors that don’t like either Israel or Iran but would be forced to side with Iran in the event it is attacked, the U.S. has argued. In that sense, an attack coming from Israel could be even more polarizing in the region than one launched by the United States. An Israeli strike would also be unlikely to eradicate the Iranian nuclear program, and would at best set it back a few years, the U.S. argument goes. In the end, the Iranian program could grow back stronger.

ents whose children were taken by Children and Youth due to allegations of abuse or neglect. Her invoices, which totaled $7,275, are among those that will be reviewed in the forensic audit. Salavantis said she is certain no problems will be found with her billings, but the fact they will be included in the audit could preclude her from investigating the case. “I want to speak to the Attorney General to make sure there is no

conflict,” she said. It was not clear Friday which of the four law enforcement agencies that have been contacted would assume jurisdiction of any investigation. William Slavoski, resident agent in charge of the Secret Service’s Scranton office, said he will have to discuss the matter with other federal agencies that have been contacted. Slavoski said if his agency were to investigate, it would most likely be on the basis of a possible violation of bank fraud because the payments the county made to Stevens were drawn off a bank account. Possible gang graffiti is shown on this building in WilkesBarre. Guardian Angels say this could be a suspected gang tag – what might look like any other kind of graffiti to the untrained eye – behind a strip mall on Pennsylvania Avenue.

We’re going to miss them but will make do with what we have to get our work done,” said county 911 Executive Director Dave Parsnik. County Interim Register of Wills Dorothy Stankovic lost two union employees through layoffs and reassigned their duties to other workers. “The county’s in a deficit, so we have to work with them. It’s going to be hard, but we’ll do it,” she said. Stankovic and Prothonotary

shouldn’t be afraid of annoying police with constant phone calls because it’s the tips that help their investigations. But people also need to be patient, he said, because investigations can sometimes take a year or two to complete.

Carolee Medico Olenginski continue to work in their elected posts, which were eliminated by home rule, because they are guaranteed payment until their terms expire at the end of 2013. Stankovic said her office had 14 or 15 workers when she was first elected in 1994, and she’s down to seven. “The employees are being cross-trained. They’ve got to understand you have to service the people,” she said. County Interim Treasurer Dominick DePolo said his office lost a bookkeeper who primarily helped monitor and reconcile 85 bank accounts. The number of accounts will increase to more than 100 because home rule

merges some offices that will no longer have proprietary bank accounts, he said. “It will be problematic for us to handle that work,” he said. County employees received an email Thursday indicating mail delivery services will be changed due to budget cuts. One of the two mailroom employees was furloughed. County employees will no longer pick up mail from the post office, sort and deliver it to each department, the email said. The U.S. Postal Service will be instructed to deliver mail to the physical addresses listed, where it will be sorted and available for pickup by each department, the email said.

Mohawks are out to prove they are a different team as they play for D2-2A title. By JOHN ERZAR jerzar@timesleader.com

PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER

Easton’s Robert Rizzolino hangs upside down as Nathan Cheek of Wyoming Valley West works on his next move in a 132-pound match during preliminaries of the Class 3A regionals Friday.

– both No. 2 seeds in their respective brackets – scored onepoint decisions for the Comets with Hankinson knocking off Parkland’s Michael Marano 4-3 and Hammerstone getting past East Stroudsburg South’s Kevin Finn 8-7. The conference’s two No. 1 seeds, Hoffman and Emerick, won rather easily. Hoffman decisioned Jovon Reyes from Dieruff 5-1, while Emerick pinned Freedom’s Tyler Peerson in 2:39. Wesolowski (20-11) may have a good shot of getting through to states after winning twice on Friday. First, he defeated Whitehall’s Brian Fang 4-2 then scored a third-period escape over Williamsport’s Patrick Goldy for a 2-1 quarterfinal win. The senior will see Pleasant Valley’s Mike Benner in the semis. Benner is the No. 5 seed from District 11 with a 27-13 record after sending the second seed in the weight to the loser’s bracket. “We were saying all week that he really has a shot to get through and he really showed it. He worked hard all week,” Woodall said about his heavyweight. “He’s doing a hell of a job today and just going after it. He knows what he has to do.” Wrestling begins at 9:30 a.m. today with the first elimination round and 19 wrestlers from the WVC will participate in the wrestlebacks with hopes of winning four times today to take third place. Notes Tunkhannock 170-pound senior Charlie Generotti won his pigtail match, but fell in the quarters …Coughlin 106-pounner on a dreary night for Meyers. The senior took his first step toward earning his third trip to states when he pinned Canton’s Daniel Killian in 2:16. Pasone will face two-time regional third-place finisher Matt Welliver of Benton in the semis. Degraba (106) pounded Central Columbia freshman Taylor Johnson 9-2 and gets Mifflinburg’s Noah Kuba in the semifinals. In his third trip to the regional tournament, Schutz blanked Sayre senior Jesse Buck 8-0 and will get Line Mountain’s Seth Lansberry in the semifinals.

toursville. Harry will face Line Mountain’s Mason Zimmerman in his semi, a wrestler he beat last season. "All the matches down here are tough," Williams said. "Certainly coming back as a regional runner-up, you’d like to think that Austin can give himself a chance to get there again this year. It’s not easy. (Zimmerman) is a pretty tough kid in the semis.

LOOK said. The other four semifinalists from the conference are the Comets’ Matt Hammerstone (152 pounds), Hazleton Area’s Larry Romanchik (113) and Chad Hoffman (195); and the Spartans’ Kyle Krasavage (126) joins his teammate Simms. After a rough preliminary round, where only three conference wrestlers won, the quarters proved much better for the conference with 10 victories. Romanchik, a freshman, got things started with a 6-4 overtime victory over Shikellamy’s Jake Witmer. He will see Pleasant Valley’s Sean Bianco with a state berth on the line. Mere minutes after that bout, Krasavage got to the semis with an 8-4 decision over East Stroudsburg South’s Mason Byrne. Krasavage, a state qualifier in 2010, will see defending state champion Corey Keener from Blue Mountain in the semis. “It’s going to be a battle. I got hard matches coming either way,” Krasavage said. “I wrestled him last year. I just have to mentally prepare for him.” Lussi, who is a junior like Krasavage, will also see a reigning state champ in Easton’s Mitchell Minotti. Lussi knocked off Southern Lehigh’s Matt Mirth with a major decision to advance. “Can’t have any regrets at all, you just have to go and come out with a win,” Lussi said about today’s upcoming bout. “I’d like to get Kyle again in the finals, maybe I could beat him.” One of the biggest wins out of the 10 came by Mahmoud. When the senior pinned Williamsport’s Steffen Yaskoweak in 3:44 he picked up his 100th career win. He got No. 99 in the preliminaries. He now faces Northampton’s Jason Stephen, the bracket’s top seed, and may see Simms in the finals. “I felt so much more motivated because it’s my senior year and if I didn’t get that 100, it would be such a heartbreaker for me,” Mahmoud said. “I was stepping on the mat like it’s a state final match for me.” Speaking of Simms, he advanced when he scored a late reversal with time winding down in the third period to pull out a 5-3 win over Pleasant Valley’s Alex Yanovich. He will face Parkland sophomore Josh Ortman in the semis. Ortman defeated the No. 2 seed in the quarters. “I was exhausted and the kid was strong I was just hoping for the best,” Simms said about his late-second, two-point score. “I’d love to see (Mahmoud) in the finals and get that rematch. I know he wants it.” Hankinson and Hammerstone

with four doubles and eight runs batted in. The four doubles breaks the school single-game record of three previously held by Tami Thomas against Lebanon Valley in 1999, while the eight RBI ties the single-game mark set by Suzanne Fisher against Delaware Valley in 1997. Alysha Bixler went 4-for-4 with six RBI on a triple and two home runs.

Heather Compton recorded the win, going three solid innings not allowing a hit while striking out five batters. McGrath entered in relief, going two innings and allowing just one hit. Wilkes 12, John Jay 0

Wilkes followed its opening win against York with a shutout of John Jay College. Jessalyn Paveletz topped the

team, going 3-for-4 with a homer and three RBI. Jordan Borger finished 2-for-4 with a double and two runs. Freshman Laykin Hughes picked up the win, going four innings and not allowing a hit with eight strikeouts. Wilkes continues play today with matchups against Franklin and Marshall at 10 a.m. and North Carolina Wesleyan at noon.

Circumstances can change drastically over the course of a few months. Take what happened the first time Meyers played Holy Cross, the team the Mohawks face at 3 p.m. today at Holy Redeemer High School for the District 2 Class 2A boys basketball title. The Meyers team back on Dec. 13 that lost 57-35 to the Crusaders isn’t the same team that will be on the court today. First, one starter from the Dec. 13 version of Meyers is no longer with the team. Neither is a one of the top reserves back then. And the Mohawks added Wyoming Valley West standout Eugene Lewis the next day after that loss when District 2 approved his transfer after an eligibility hearing. “We played them in the exhibition season and they hammered us,” Meyers coach Pat Toole said. “At that time … I had some kids on my team that weren’t really playing well. And we didn’t have Eugene. We’re a much better team now and more cohesive now than at that point of the season.” Lewis made a statement in Thursday’s 78-37 dismantling of Lakeland in the semifinals. The 6foot-3 Penn State football recruit scored a game-high 27 points, including 10 on five crowd-pleasing dunks. He and 6-foot-5 junior Rasheed Moore were unstoppable. Moore added 16. Junior guard Ryan Krawczeniuk added 11 and fellow starting guards Alex Pape and Fabian Smith, both seniors, also contributed. All that won’t matter if the Mohawks (22-2) can’t slow down Holy Cross 6-5 junior Josh Kosin. He had 16 points when the Crusaders (22-4) defeated Meyers the first time around. He had 36 on Wednesday when Holy Cross pounded a very solid Riverside team 61-33. The Crusaders also have a strong perimeter presence

The Crusaders have lost to Abington Heights, Dunmore (twice) and Scranton Prep this season. Meyers lost to Riverside in last season’s title game, failing to secure its first district title since the 1999-2000 season. The Mohawks’ other loss this season came against Abington Heights. Regardless of what happens today, both teams will play in next week’s PIAA Class 2A tournament. Today’s winner plays the District 4 third seed. Today’s loser plays the District 4 second seed. District 4 will complete its 2A tournament today when Southern Columbia (20-5) plays Loyalsock (21-3) for the championship and Athens (21-3) plays South Williamsport (18-7) for third place.

WOMEN’S COLLEGE BASKETBALL

Misericordia’s run comes to an end Tufts holds off Cougars’ rally attempts in the first round of the NCAA tournament. The Times Leader staff

MEDFORD, Mass. — The Misericordia women’s basketball team missed two opportunities to tie the game with just over 10 seconds remaining and Tufts went on to hit a couple free throws to end the Cougars’ season 61-57 in the first round of the NCAA Division III playoffs Friday night. Christine Marks grabbed a defensive rebound after Tufts’ Kelsey Morehead missed a pair of free throws with 27.8 seconds left. Marks then missed on a drive to the right side of the basket. She grabbed the rebound, but had her follow-up shot blocked. Tufts’ Tiffany Kornegay was immediately fouled and hit her first free throw for a 60-57 lead with 9.3 seconds remaining. She missed her second, but rushed down the lane to nab the rebound and was fouled again. She hit her second free throw attempt with 6.5 remaining to seal the victory. Playing in their final game for the Cougars, seniors Marks and Jesse Robinson combined to score 38 of the team’s 57 points. Marks closed her career with another double-double, leading all players with 22 points and 12 rebounds while playing all 40 minutes. She leaves Misericordia as the team’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder to go along with a

handful of single-game records. Robinson finished with 16 points and five boards in 38 minutes. The Cougars had a strong showing against the nation’s No. 4 ranked defense, topping the Jumbos’ average points allowed (45.7) by 12. Misericordia knocked down 5-of-10 shots from behind the arc and was 16-of-18 from the foul line. Tufts led 32-26 at halftime, closing out the initial 20 minutes with a pair of three-pointers. The Jumbos then opened a 46-36 lead with 12:35 left to play. Marks, though, led a Cougars comeback with a pair of threes and gave her team the lead, 51-50, with two free throws at 5:19. Tufts then took advantage of some cold Misericordia shooting and turnovers to regain a 58-51 advantage at 2:58. But a pair of free throws by Marks and a three-pointer by Robinson cut the deficit to 59-57 with 38 seconds remaining. Misericordia’s season ends at1711 after capturing its first Freedom Conference title and making the team’s NCAA debut. The host Jumbos (22-6) advanced to the second round to play Johns Hopkins today.

AMERICAN HOCKEY LEAGUE

Well-traveled O’Reilly adjusting to WBS Penguins By TOM VENESKY tvenesky@timesleader.com

If you’re planning a trip and need some advice on a good hotel, chances are Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton Penguins forward Cal O’Reilly can help you out. The seventh-year pro joined his fifth team this season when Pittsburgh reassigned O’Reilly to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton late last month. After stops in Nashville, Phoenix and Pittsburgh in the NHL and Portland in the AHL, O’Reilly has used the week between games to get adjusted to his new team. “Right away when I got here I could understand what coach expects and how they want guys to play. The system fits me really well,” he said. “Now is when

playoff hockey kind of starts and you start letting it go. It’s a good stretch.” O’Reilly admitted it has been tough bouncing between the AHL and NHL this season, especially with the different roles that he played in the two leagues. In the AHL, O’Reilly is a top-six forward who is counted on to put up points. In the NHL, he found himself in a more defensive role. “At times it’s tough when you play a ton of time down here and you go up and your minutes aren’t as high and you’re playing more of a grinding role,” O’Reilly said. “I’m not a big, physical player. The skill part of the game is what I love and it’s the way I played my whole life.” O’Reilly played in two games ly five seconds off her seed time. “We really have to keep the mindset that we have to perform and push ourselves before we think we automatically have it.” Valley West’s Morgan Hanadel recorded an upset victory in the 100 butterfly over Wallenpaupack’s Baileigh Vanderhoof. Hanadel claimed first at a 59.51-second clip. Delaware Valley’s Kendall Glaster became a returning champion in the 50 free, posting a 24.9-second mark that edged the Spartans’ Kayleigh Fishe by eight-hundreths of a second. The Coughlin foursome of Carly Ray, Ashley Ray, Kylee McGrane and Emilie Gurdock set two school records in the 200 medley and 200 free relays. Final competition continues at 6 p.m. today at the Wyoming Valley Catholic Youth Center. “We have to swim well; they have to swim well,” Tribendis said. “It’s all about the competition. Whoever wants it the most is going to do it.”

“So I just tried staying as close to him as possible. I was just telling myself I want to make it to states.” Valley West freshman Ed Zawatski sprinted to a first-place victory in the 50 free at 21.02 seconds. “That freshman from Valley West is just … wow,” Keiser said. “It’s the first we’ve seen him. He’s going to be a real guy.” The Spartans also broke a school record in the 200 medley relay. On the girls side, Hazleton Area sisters Shaina and Felicia Grego notched back-to-back individual wins in the 200 free and 200 IM, respectively. Both Grego sisters paced the competition by nearly three seconds. The Cougars failed to win both of the all-too-important relay races, but will feature both of the Grego sisters in the 400 free relay. “We have to keep focused,” District 2 Class AAA said Felicia Grego, who cut near- Championships

for the Penguins last weekend and is hoping to get his first point with the team when they face Adirondack this Sunday on the road. He’s always looking UP NEXT forward to WBS Penguins establishing some consisat Adirondack Phantoms tency in a sea3 p.m. Sunday son that has been a blur of different teams. “It’s been crazy. A lot of different jersey numbers, a lot of hotels and not having much clothes with me,” O’Reilly said. “That’s

the way it goes. The guys on all the teams have been great with helping me adjust and get around.” Munroe close Goaltender Scott Munroe practiced for the second straight day Friday and worked on his flexibility and movement. Hynes said he is still day-to-day and the team is aiming for Munroe to return to action Sunday. “We’re going to wait until Sunday to make the decision. We’re not going to rush him,” coach John Hynes said. “If he’s not ready we’ll play (Patrick) Killeen.” Killeen spent the week of practice facing as many shots as he could and preparing as if he will start Sunday. The more shots he

faces, whether its in practice or game situations, is a big help in adjusting to the AHL level, Killeen said. “I’m getting more and more used to it. I’m not worrying about any outside factors, just how I’m practicing and getting ready as if I was playing,” he said.

New prospect signed Pittsburgh signed junior forward Adam Payerl to a three-year entry level contract on Thursday.

Hynes said his team “He’s a very gritty, aggressive isn’t worried about running out of player,” Hynes said. “A big guy time to catch the Admirals. “There’s still a ton of hockey to who can play in the hard areas of the ice and a tough player to play play and this break has been against.” good,” he said. “We’re excited to

DISTRICT 2 CLASS 2A SWIMMING

Prep girls get records, Redeemer gets lead Royals are up by 63 entering today. Dallas boys hold 21-point edge over Redeemer. By JAY MONAHAN For The Times Leader

WILKES-BARRE – The Scranton Prep girls 200 medley relay team laughed off any possibility of not breaking a district record. “Of course we knew we’d do it,” Classics swimmer Maria Telincho said, brimming with assuredness. Scranton Prep wasn’t done after the first race. The Classics claimed three district records and won six of the seven girls’ events Friday at the District 2 Class 2A swimming championships at the Wyoming Valley Catholic Youth Center. As far as Holy Redeemer is concerned, Scranton Prep could take as many district crowns as it wants. Despite only winning one race, the Royals hold a staggering 63-point lead over the Classics after the first day of competition. On the boys’ side, Dallas holds a slight 163-142 lead over Holy Redeemer. The Royals’ girls head into today with a commanding 201 points. Redeemer was led by El-

But it was tough being without Brit because when I don’t need to bring up the ball, she’s there.” Replacing Muscatell in the starting lineup was junior Celia Rader, who returned after a three-game absence. She finished with 13 points, as did senior Samantha Simcox, who added nine rebounds and four steals. “Obviously missing Brit is big

Finnegan won by a tenth of a second over Telincho, clocking in at 25.45 seconds for her second consecutive win in the event. “She’s the reigning queen from last year,” Redeemer coach Mara Pawlenok said. “Elizabeth has a lot of natural talent. She’s a good competitor. Once she sees someone swimming near her, she goes faster.” Using its wealth of depth to its advantage, the Royals benefited from their younger swimmers who came in with lifetime bests in the IM and the butterfly to outperform their seeded positions. “Well, I thought score-wise, we’re doing a great job of racking up points,” Pawlenok said. “We certainly have more points as were seeded in the program. We told the kids before the meet we want to increase the number of points that were actually on paper. So far, they’ve done a thrilling job of actually doing that.” Prep broke a 10-year-old 200 medley relay record by 13-hundreths of a second. Six races later, the same foursome of Mia Nonnenberg, Rebekah Campo, Katie Voitik and Telincho sank another 10-year-old record when Telincho held off a charging Elizabeth Fin-

negan in the 200 free relay for a three-tenths of a second victory. “They’re possible of doing some things,” Prep coach Joe Thier said. “I was surprised in a sense because you never know what’s going to happen. Of course, depth kills us. By now, our kids have improved and every one of our girls has gotten better in every race.” Nonnenberg broke her own record in the 200 IM with a time of 2:05.84 – 8.45 seconds faster than the competition. Voitik took first in the 200 free. In the boys’ events, Dallas finds itself going toe-to-toe with a Redeemer team that posted surprising results toward the end of the season. The Royals’ 200 medley relay team of Cody Smith, Terry Vrabec, George Evans and Mike Dubinski set the tone with a win in a race it was seeded third in. The Royals finished with a time of 1:42.57. “I don’t think I could be happier,” Redeemer coach Matt Mill said. “I think they hit the perfect stride. I couldn’t be happier with some of the drops, especially in both relays.” Dallas’ Marcus Wagner placed first in the 200 free with a time of 1:51.17.

“It’s fantastic,” Wagner said. “I’m thrilled with how it worked out. I worked hard and this is how I expected it to turn out.” The Mountaineers also received a gold medal from Jake Chielli, who took his third consecutive 50 free district crown. Chielli squeaked past Prep’s Ryan Sebastianelli with a time of 22.14 seconds. Dallas narrowly held on to its lead after a big performance in a tightly contested 200 free relay. Brian Stepniak swam the final 50 meters in 22.45 seconds to guide Dallas to a first-place showing with a school-record time of 1:31.56. “They did a great job, especially that last relay,” Dallas coach Romayne Mosier said. “They’ve been trying to break the school record all season, so that was the icing on the cake.” The District 2 Class 2A Swimming Championships resume today at noon.

just because she’s a stabilizing force and she’s good at getting everyone in the right spot,” Donoghue said. “But I think the entire quartet of guards we played in the game tonight were very good. I think we had very good pace.” The Lady Monarchs relied on the three-ball to keep the Red Dragons (19-9) at arm’s length in the second half, knocking down five to stunt Oneonta’s rally. King’s finished 8-of-22 from behind the arc while the Dragons were 2-of-19 from deep, with one coming in the final minute of an already-decided game. The 42 points was Oneonta’s lowest output of the season.

Both teams shot under 30 percent in the first half as the Lady Monarchs took a 24-13 lead into the locker room. Oneonta missed its first12 shots from the field, finally converting on a wide-open layup following a turnover at midcourt at the 13:17 mark. The Dragons struggled from long range, going 1-of-12 from behind the arc on the first half, but just as damaging were the several misses right under the rim, typically after an offensive rebound or a steal. “I don’t think we’ve had a game where we went that long without (scoring),” Dragons coach

Daphne Thompson said. “We were shooting something like 6 percent in the first 10 minutes. “It wasn’t like we didn’t have good looks. They were our usual shots. It wasn’t like we were forcing it up.” Despite never leading in the game, Oneonta hung around and pulled within eight with three minutes to play. King’s had struggled from the foul line in the conference title game, but was solid down the stretch on Friday to prevent the comeback.

Parise’s Irish nab Big East tourney byes trick lifts NJ past Capitals The Associated Press

The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Zach Parise notched a hat trick before a crunching hit from two players sent him to the locker room midway through the second period, and the New Jersey Devils snapped a four-game losing streak by beating the Washington Capitals 5-0 Friday night. Parise raised his total to a team-high 27 goals — including pairing with a somersaulting Dainius Zubrus for two that came 29 seconds apart — but left the game at the 9:40 mark of the second period, when he was sandwiched between Washington forwards Matt Hendricks and Brooks Laich near the boards. Parise stayed down for a bit while being checked, then was helped off the ice. He was on the bench in the third period, smiling while chatting with teammates, and played briefly on a power play with about six minutes left. Lightning 4, Rangers 3, OT TAMPA, Fla. — Ryan Malone scored 1:58 into overtime as Tampa Bay overcame a two-goal deficit to beat Eastern Conference-leading New York. Malone beat Henrik Lundqvist from the slot as his gamewinner stopped a personal 10game goal drought. Brandon Dubinsky got the Rangers even at 3 from the left circle with 3:27 left in the third. Steven Stamkos scored his league-leading 45th goal from slot at 10:17 of the third to give the Lightning a 3-2 lead. Tom Pyatt and Teddy Purcell also scored for the Lightning, who moved within four points of eighth-place Winnipeg in the East. Purcell added two assists. Artem Anisimov and Marian Gaborik had other Rangers’ goals. Red Wings 6, Wild 0 DETROIT — Jimmy Howard made 19 saves for his 11th career shutout, Valtteri Filppula had two goals and an assist, and Henrik Zetterberg had a goal and two assists in Detroit’s win over Minnesota. Ian White a goal and an assist and Brendan Smith and Darren Helm also scored for the Red Wings. Niklas Kronwall had three assists. It was Howard’s sixth shutout of the season. Blackhawks 2, Senators 1 OTTAWA — Marian Hossa scored the go-ahead goal midway through the second period and Chicago held on to defeat Ottawa. Bryan Bickell also scored for the Blackhawks, while Ray Emery, making his first appearance in Ottawa since having his contract bought out in 2008, made 25 saves.

SOUTH BEND, Ind. — Jack Cooley scored a career-high 27 points and had 17 rebounds as No. 20 Notre Dame beat Providence 75-69 on Friday night to wrap up a double bye in next week’s Big East tournament. Notre Dame (21-10, 13-5) locked up the No. 3 seed in the tournament and ended a twogame losing skid that followed a nine-game winning streak. Cooley, who had just two points and no rebounds in the Irish’s loss at Georgetown on Monday, scored 21 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in the first half, hitting 7 of 10 shots. He finished 10 for 15 from the field. LaDontate Henton had 18 points and 12 rebounds, Vincent Council added 17 points and Gerald Coleman 15 for Providence (15-16, 4-14). But the Friars were cold out from the 3-point line, missing their first 13 attempts before hitting three straight and finishing 4-for-20.

Notre Dame guard Alex Dragicevich heads up court against Providence on Friday in South Bend, Ind. Notre Dame won 75-69.

No. 12 Murray St. 78, Tennessee Tech 58 NASHVILLE, Tenn. — Donte Poole scored 25 points, and 12th-ranked Murray State routed Tennessee Tech in the Ohio Valley Conference tournament semifinals. Now the Racers (29-1) will play the winner of Tennessee State-Morehead State in the championship Saturday. No. 15 Wichita State 72, Indiana State 48 ST. LOUIS — Toure Murry and Joe Ragland scored 14 points each and Garrett Stutz had 12 rebounds to lead No. 15 Wichita State to a win over Indiana State in the quarterfinals of the Missouri Valley Conference tournament. The Shockers (27-4) won their season-high ninth straight and will play Northern Iowa or Illinois State on Saturday for a spot in the championship.

Sixers triumph on Wilt’s night The Associated Press

PHILADELPHIA — Lou Williams scored 25 points, and Elton Brand had 14 points and 14 rebounds to lead the Philadelphia 76ers to a 105-83 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Friday in the 50th anniversary of Wilt Chamberlain’s 100-point game. The Sixers topped 100 points for the first time in 20 games on the night they paid tribute to the record Chamberlain set for the Philadelphia Warriors against the New York Knicks on March 2, 1962, at the Hershey Sports Arena. The Sixers gave fans pieces of the court and honored Chamberlain’s sisters and former teammates during a halftime ceremony. On that memorable night, Chamberlain scored 41 points by halftime and 69 points through three quarters. The Sixers had 50 points at the break and 75 points through three on Friday. Celtics 107, Nets 94 BOSTON — Paul Pierce had 27 points and eight assists, and Boston got back above .500 with its third straight win, beating New Jersey. Kevin Garnett added 20 points and 10 rebounds for his second straight double-double and third in four games. Rajon Rondo joined him with a double-double, finishing with 14 points and 13 assists for Boston (18-17). Bulls 112, Cavaliers 91 CLEVELAND — Luol Deng scored a season-high 24 points and Derrick Rose added 19 as Chicago downed Cleveland, which was without rookie guard Kyrie Irving. Up by 12 at halftime, Chicago built a 24-point lead in the third quarter and coasted to its

could’ve used this setup last year. They went through awful collapses in September that eventually cost them playoff spots on the final day of the season. “I think the more, the merrier,” new Red Sox manager Bobby Valentine said. “I think for the fans, the players, the energy at the end of the season, I don’t mind. What would it be, a third of the teams? I think it’ll be good.” This is the first switch in MLB’s postseason format since the 1995 season, when wild cards were first added. The move creates a new one-game, wild-card round in the AL and NL between the teams with the best records who are not division winners. “It’s a good thing for baseball. That seems to be what the people want,” Detroit manager Jim Leyland said. “There are a lot of mixed emotions but as long as the playoffs don’t get watered down, it’s fine, but that won’t happen in baseball,” he said. The additions mean 10 of the 30 MLB teams will get into the playoffs. That’s still fewer than in the other pro leagues — 12 of 32 make it in the NFL, and 16 of 30 advance in the NBA and NHL. The long-expected decision was announced less than an hour before Seattle and Oakland started the exhibition season. On March 28, the Mariners and Athletics will play the big league opener in Tokyo. “This change increases the rewards of a division championship and allows two additional markets to experience playoff baseball each year,” Commissioner Bud Selig said in a statement. Also, a tweak: For the 2012 postseason, the five-game division series will begin with two home games for lower seeds, followed by home games for the higher seed. After that, it will return to the 2-2-1 format previously used. MLB said that with schedules already drawn for this season, the postseason had to be compressed to fit in the extra games. Hence, fewer off-days for travel. “I don’t think it really changes the way you look at this season. You really have to fight to win your division,” New York Yankees manager Joe Girardi said. “It is kind of strange to start on the road. That doesn’t quite seem right, but it’s a one-year thing. I understand why they’re doing it.” If the World Series goes to Game 7 this year — as it did last season, when the wild-card St. Louis Cardinals won the championship — it would be played Nov. 1.

Montero leaves opener with injury Gillis shoots a 64, The Associated Press

PHOENIX — New Seattle catcher Jesus Montero has been hit in the mask by a foul ball and left his first exhibition game for the Mariners. Montero homered in the top of the fifth inning against Oakland. But the star prospect was hit by a foul ball off the bat of Josh Donaldson in the bottom of the fifth. Montero looked dazed and had to be guided from the field. The 22-year-old Venezuelan was Seattle’s prize acquisition in the offseason. The Mariners gave up All-Star pitcher Michael Pineda to get Montero. The Mariners and Athletics opened the major league exhibition season. They play the big league opener on March 28 in Tokyo. Pittsburgh Pirates BRADENTON, Fla. — Pittsburgh pitcher A.J. Burnett is expected to miss two to three months while recovering from surgery for a facial fracture.

Pittsburgh had expected Burnett to be its opening day starter. The Pirates got the 35-year-old right-hander last month from the Yankees. Tampa Bay Rays PORT CHARLOTTE, Fla. — The Tampa Bay Rays are being cautious with Evan Longoria after the slugger was hit on his right hand by a pitch. Longoria was injured Thursday. X-rays of his bruised hand were negative, but he won’t be in the lineup for the Rays’ spring opener against the Minnesota Twins on Saturday. The three-time All-Star third baseman said Friday that he doesn’t expect to be sidelined more than a couple of days.

Johnson in red numbers after his Daytona disaster By JOHN MARSHALL AP Sports Writer

AVONDALE, Ariz. — Jimmie Johnson’s car failed inspection before the Daytona 500 and he didn’t last long in the race, collected in a wreck on the second lap. His crew chief was suspended six races and fined $100,000, and his car chief will have to watch for six races, too. Johnson also was docked 25 points and heads into this weekend’s race at Phoenix International Raceway last in the Sprint Cup standings. He’s hoping to have a good race just so he can get out of the

red in points. Coming off his worst year in NASCAR, this isn’t how the five-time champion wanted to get his season started. “It’s certainly not a position we want to be in,” Johnson said Friday. “But there’s a lot of racing between now and September.” Johnson wasn’t much of a factor last season in his bid to win six straight Sprint Cup championships. He made the Chase after winning just one race and finished sixth in the final standings, 99 points behind champion Tony Stewart. Johnson vowed to turn it around in 2012, but it didn’t get off to a very good start.

First, his car failed inspection the opening day of Speedweeks on Feb. 17 after NASCAR ruled the No. 48 Chevrolet had illegally modified sheet metal between the roof and the side windows, an area known as the C-posts. Johnson qualified eighth for the Daytona 500. But after nearly two days of rain delays, he was knocked out of the race on the second lap when Elliott Sadler nudged him from behind and triggered a multi-car wreck. Johnson didn’t return to the track — missing the jet blower fire and the laundry detergent cleanup — and finished 42nd,

earning just two points in Monday night’s season-opening race. Two days later, NASCAR announced its steep penalties for Johnson’s team. Crew chief Chad Knaus was fined $100,000 and suspended six races, and car chief Ron Malec was told he’d have to sit out six races. Hendrick Motorsports appealed, so both chiefs will be allowed to attend races during the process. Johnson also was penalized, dropping him to minus 23 points, 70 behind Daytona 500 winner Matt Kenseth in the season standings.

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. — Tom Gillis has been just about everywhere in golf except atop the leaderboard on the PGA Tour. Gillis at least gave himself a chance Friday in the Honda Classic, where the 43-year-old journeyman made a long par putt in the middle of his round that triggered a series of birdies for a 6under 64. Among the early starters, Gillis had a two-shot lead at 8-under 132. If he wasn’t overly excited, it because half the field was still on the course, and because the conditions were so benign at PGA National that even a 64 was no longer anything special. “It wasn’t a perfect round, but it was pretty good,” Gillis said. Brian Harman was better than that. The rookie from Georgia stood in the middle of the fairway on the par-5 18th hole with a chance to shoot 59 if he made eagle. He gave it his best shot, leaving a hybrid into the front bunker in an attempt to have a reasonable putt. Harman wound up missing a 5footer and had to settle for par, though his 61 still broke the course record by three shots. “Just one of those crazy days where everything comes together,” Harman said. “Got off to a really hot start and just kept the pedal down all day. It was awesome.” For Tiger Woods, it was a matter of hitting the gas and slamming on the brakes. Woods stuffed an approach inside 3 feet for birdie, then had to

scramble for bogey. He bounced a tee shot off a spectator and turned that into birdie, only to hit his next tee shot into the water for double bogey. Two birdies to finish his round gave him a 2-under 68, leaving him seven shots out of the lead. “It was nice to get that kind of finish because I was struggling today a little bit, trying to find a motion that was going to get the job done,” said Woods, whose 3year-old son, Charlie, watched him play a tournament for the first time. “Somehow, I managed to score.” He still didn’t score as well as so many others. Graeme McDowell, who opened with a 73, birdied five of his last seven holes for a 64. Ted Potter Jr. played bogey-free for a 64. Vaughn Taylor, who had to qualify Monday for the Honda Classic, had a 66 and joined Harman at 6-under 134. Harris English, the PGA Tour rookie who has yet to miss a cut, had a 69 and was another shot behind.

Bounty-hunting Saints are no angels, league contends NFL accuses New Orleans of having a program rewarding players for inflicting game-ending injuries.

By BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer

NEW YORK — New Orleans Saints players and at least one assistant coach maintained a bounty program the last three seasons for inflicting game-ending injuries on opposing players, including Brett Favre and Kurt Warner — a pool that reached as much as $50,000 and paid specific amounts for “cartoffs” and “knockouts,” the NFL said Friday. The report said the pool amounts reached their height in 2009, the year the Saints won the Super Bowl. The league said between 22 and 27 defensive players were involved in the program and that it was administered by defensive coordinator Gregg Williams, with the knowledge of coach Sean Payton. No punishments have been handed out, but they could include suspension, fines and loss of draft picks. The league said the findings were corroborated by multiple, independent sources, in an investigation by the league’s security department. Williams, who was hired in January as defensive coordinator by new Rams coach Jeff Fisher, was not immediately available to comment. “The payments here are particularly troubling because they involved not just payments for ‘performance,’ but also for injuring opposing players,” Commissioner Roger Goodell said in a statement. “The bounty rule promotes two key elements of NFL football: player safety and competitive integrity.” Payoffs included $1,500 for a “knockout” and $1,000 for a “cart-off,” with payouts doubling or tripling during the playoffs. “It is our responsibility to protect player safety and the integrity of our game, and this type of conduct will not be tolerated,” Goodell said. “We have

made significant progress in changing the culture with respect to player safety and we are not going to relent. We have more work to do and we will do it.” The league absolved Saints owner Tom Benson of any blame, but said the investigation showed Payton and general manager Mickey Loomis knew about the bounty program. “Although head coach Sean Payton was not a direct participant in the funding or administration of the program, he was aware of the allegations, did not make any detailed inquiry or otherwise seek to learn the facts, and failed to stop the bounty program. He never instructed his assistant coaches or players that a bounty program was improper and could not continue,” the NFL said. When informed about it earlier this year, the NFL said Benson directed Loomis, to “ensure that any bounty program be discontinued immediately.” However, the NFL’s report said the evidence showed Loomis did not carry out Benson’s directions, and that in 2010 Loomis denied any knowledge of a bounty program.

Rules trim gifts given to doctors

B R I E F

Revenue from slots grows Slot machine revenue at Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs grew 10.4 percent in February compared to a year earlier, faster than the statewide growth of 9 percent. Its $20.2 million in revenue ranked the Plains Township casino seventh among the state’s 10 gaming houses. Mount Airy Casino Resort near Mount Pocono had the lowest slot revenue in February, $11.6 million. That was up 2.9 percent from February 2011. Statewide slot revenue was $215.7 million in February, compared to $197.9 million a year earlier. Pennsylvania collected $117.1 million in taxes on slot play last month.

New code of ethics spells out drugmaker-physician relations.

By KRISTEN HALLAM Bloomberg News

LONDON – Doctors can still get free samples of medicines, though not football tickets or lunch for their spouses, under a revised code of conduct drafted by a global drug industry trade group. The new rules clarify the differences between gifts, promotional aids and items such as anatomical models that can be used in medical practice, the International Federation of Pharmaceutical Manufacturers & Associations said Thursday in a statement. The federation’s member companies will be required to adopt the new guidelines and provide related training to their 1.3 million employees, the group said. The code may help curb legal expenses related to marketing, particularly in the United States, where GlaxoSmithKline last year agreed to pay $3 billion to resolve criminal and civil investigations and other matters. Pfizer and Eli Lilly each paid more than $1 billion to settle marketing allegations in 2009. Novartis and AstraZeneca are among drugmakers that in the past year have disclosed U.S. subpoenas seeking information on the selling of certain products. "The new code provides a framework for the industry to act with integrity and build trust," AstraZeneca Chief Executive Officer David Brennan, the federation’s president, said in the statement. Free samples of medicines may be given to doctors who are authorized to prescribe them to patients, the federation said in the code. Companies should avoid extravagant venues for meetings, be transparent in promotional materials, and shouldn’t offer items for the personal benefit of a doctor or nurse, such as gift certificates or concert tickets, according to the guidelines.

Yelp shares soar on IPO Yelp’s stock opened to five-star reviews from investors on Friday, soaring 65 percent to $24.77 in the first minutes of trading after pricing at $15 on Thursday night. Shares held the gain to the end, closing at $24.58. The online reviews site’s initial public offering priced above its targeted range of $12 to $14 per share. That already suggested strong investor demand for a slice of the 8-year-old business, which has yet to turn a profit. The IPO price valued Yelp at $900 million. With Friday’s stock price jump, the San Francisco company has a market value of $1.49 billion.

Food and vet costs accounted for about 65 percent of the spending. But it was the service category that grew the most.

Over the past three months, only 9.1" of snow has been recorded in our area and that set a mark for the third lowest snowfall during this period known as meteorological winter. Despite having another strong cold wave here early next week, there is only the chance for flurries. Beyond that and into next weekend, there is little or no chance for snow and for most of the time temperatures will be above normal. Temperatures will be above normal today now that the wind has shifted with clearing and the return of sunshine. Later today, that March wind will gust to 30 m.p.h. followed by a moonlit sky tonight.

DINNER BY DESIGN

As you saunter through the four levels of the Scranton Cultural Center, you’ll see a variety of tables set for celebrations both great and small.

Scranton exhibit full of imagination

By MARY THERESE BIEBEL mbiebel@timesleader.com

If you want to set a party table a la the designers from Fleur de Lys of Scranton, it helps to know a zoo owner who can supply peacock feathers. It also helps if you visit Sotheby auctions, especially if you can successfully bid on a life-size statue of a graceful young sylph, once owned by Barbra Streisand. Finally, it helps to have the flair and imagination that can transform part of the third floor of the Scranton Cultural Center into a setting worthy of the engagement party a stylish Provence matron might put together for her daughter and future son-in-law.

“How about Chloe?” Fleur de Lys co-owner Kathee Senofonte asked, supplying a name for the mythical French hostess as she arranged a table setting with cream-color china and a tiny, dollhouse-size chair to hold the name card. The Fleur de Lys display was one of many set up for “Dinner by Design: A Visual Indulgence for the Eyes, Mind and Soul.” The sumptuous exhibit opened Friday and will remain on four levels of the Scranton Cultural Center this weekend, where it can be viewed FRED ADAMS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER

You’ll find ‘a visual indulgence for the eyes, mind and soul’ at the Scranton Cultural Center this weekend, organizers promise.

quite distinct, and cruelly seductive, line exists in many of our homes. Have you identified

yours? In mine, it’s the exact spot at which new carpeting collides with old. I’ve come to call it the edge of reason. I tell myself, again and again, that this is a line I refuse to cross. Sound your siren songs, you expansive vixen in nylon fiber beneath my feet. But if I don’t look down, how much can you hurt me? Make me any promises you wish – about how much more complete and satisfied I’ll feel, how much fresher this whole place will feel, if only I keep going – but be warned. This year, I’ve vowed to remain strong, steadfast and stalwart. No, really. This time I mean it. If you know me, you know those are big words; you might even say empty words, especially this time of year, my most susceptible. I’ve regularly shunned flu shots with great success but am starting to think they need to come up with some sort of inoculation against the home-improvement bug, which bites and bites hard right about when trusty old, mostly mild-mannered March rolls around. At least in my neck of the woods, where I seem to find one, or a thousand, in every room of the house, buzzing in my ear with one idea after another. (Not necessarily rational or workable ideas, but, hey, I am who I am, and this song just plays on.) Perhaps these bugs have rudely charged in through boldly opened windows, welcoming these first, glorious signs of spring? Can’t say for sure, but not for me to ask why or whence anyway. My condition is my condition, and where I acquired it I acquired it. And, besides, isn’t rationalization beautiful? Not my fault, I usually like to protest. All the home shows this time of year certainly don’t help a troubled soul like mine, for whom showrooms, moveable and otherwise, full of flooring and lighting and furniture and paint, glorious paint, are like big old candy shops only way better. You can have your chocolate everythings and fancy all-day suckers – I like those, too – but fill my sack instead with tile and textile samples and as many catalogs as it can carry. And please don’t touch my “speed dial” when I get home from one of these grand shows – there’s one this weekend at the 109th Field Artillery Armory, be advised – and spread my newly acquired wealth of inspiration before me while tuning into my beloved HGTV, which only exacerbates my little problem. When I go double-barrel like that, best you walk away quietly, without protest, because I’m off to the races. The races in my head, of course. When it comes to home improvement, I run by a Roman calendar, plain and simple, even though it warns me the Ides of March are approaching. Domestically speaking, these are troubled times. Caesar – did you know? – is actually alive and well, knocking on my door and yours and shouting something about tax bills. Let the if onlys begin. If only we didn’t have to render unto old, misguided Caesar. If only his little actuarial army of mean-spirited descendants could convince our unholy Romanesque empire that we really can all put our money to far better use, that our neighborhoods would be far better off, if only they wouldn’t greedily scoop up so much, cutting us off at the knees. Yeah, I know, I’m dreaming again. It’s what I do. Even as I balance my checkbook and hear the scales groan. All I have to do is vow. (Vow-ow-ow.) The first step actually is a flu shot, of sorts. Exposure to a decent dose of the bad stuff so I can build my resistance. Take me to the home shows! Reach Sandra Snyder, the editor of At Home, at 831-7383 or ssnyder@timesleader.com.

Mice in the dishwasher? Not so uncommon, and you might blame the vent cover YOUR PLACE

Q: I live in a mature residential area not too far from a neighborhood park. For the past few years, when the weather reaches the low 20 degrees, field mice come in the house. Then they find their way into the dishwasher, of all places. I have plugged up every hole in the house I could with every technique I have read or heard about, but they still get in. We do scrape and rinse the dishes, and in the morning I still find mouse feces in the bottom of the dishwasher. The plumber told us he not seen this in his 30 years in the business and thought it was so funny, he did not charge us. He suggested a new dishwasher.

IN BRIEF On the shelf Who says vegetable gardening is just for warm weather? Not Niki Jabbour. She’s the author of “The YearRound Vegetable Gardener,” a guide to stretching nature’s calendar. Jabbour lives in Nova Scotia, yet she manages to grow cold-tolerant veggies in the dead of winter using protections such as cold frames and hoop tunnels. She coaches her readers to think in terms of three growing seasons — cool, warm and cold — and to match crops to the time of year they grow best. She also teaches gardening practices that are smart no matter when you’re growing, such as building healthy soil and rotating crop families. Much of her book is devoted to information about specific plants, so you can choose what you like to eat and then learn how and when to grow it. “The Year-Round Vegetable Gardener” is published by Storey Publishing and sells for $19.95 in paperback or $29.95 in hardcover. What’s new The U-Stripe It promises to make it easier to paint stripes on a wall or other surface. The device consists of a pair of straight-edges that

ALAN J. HEAVENS Any suggestions? A: In warm, rainy spring weather, many readers have reported ants in their dishwashers, but never mice. They are pretty flexible and if there is a way to change shape to get into a place they like, they’ll come right in. You’d be surprised at the number of people on the Internet who report having mice in their dishwashers. Most cite the Maytag Quiet Series models because of a plastic vent cover that the rodents repeatedly chewed through. Some have replaced the plastic cover with wire mesh and that has worked. You have a GE Triton XL, and I could find no mention of a can be adjusted to a specific width apart and then locked into place. The straightedges then serve as a guide for positioning painter’s tape without the need for pencil marks. By adding low-tack tape, you can stick the tool to the wall to free your hands for applying the painter’s tape. Levels attached to the device help you to keep it plumb for vertical stripes or level for horizontal stripes. The gadget also can be used for creating circles and other geometric shapes. The U-Stripe It can be ordered for $27.95 at www.ustripeit.com. Shipping is free. Q&A Q: One of our bathrooms’ walls and trim were painted with textured paint. I hate it. Any suggestions on how to get rid of it or cover it? — J.K., Atlanta, Ga. A: Karl Schmitt, vice president of marketing and merchandising for the SherwinWilliams Co., said one option is to skim coat the wall with drywall compound. Sand the compound smooth, prime and repaint. You also can sand the texture down with a power sander, Schmitt said, and that’s probably the approach you’ll need to take on the trim. But that’s a more labor-intensive undertaking, he said. -- McClatchy-Tribune News Service

mouse problem for that brand and model anywhere. You say your plumber suggested buying a new dishwasher and you are against it, because the one you have isn’t broken. The way I see it, if your dishwasher has a mouse problem that doesn’t seem to want to go away, it is broken in a sense. That’s not saying that a newer model will keep the mice away, though you could look into ones that might be a bit more impenetrable. Consider a professional exterminator to find exactly where the mice are coming in and see if he or she can stop them in their tracks. ••• DISHWASHER TIPS: Not sure if this applies to the reader in a recent column who said the dishes were cloudy coming out of the dishwasher. I too won-

dered if I needed a new dishwasher, even though mine seems to work as well as ever. My glasses came out with a white film baked onto them, even without the dryer cycle turned on. Recently I read an article in which many people wrote that they are noticing that their dishes, particularly clear glassware, are coming out of the dishwasher coated with a white film, which doesn’t rinse off. According to the article, it is due to the dishwasher detergents, and not the dishwasher. The formula for the detergents has been changed to lower pollutants in our water. Unfortunately, we get left with this film on the glasses. The article named one or two detergents that don’t leave the film. One is Cascade Complete, but I don’t remember the name

of the other one. Thanks to Pat for the information. If anyone knows the name of the other detergent, let me know. ••• Q: A few years ago I had the tiles in my bathroom painted (covering a truly ugly color). Now the paint is chipping off in places. Is it possible to repaint tile that already has been painted once? And can anything be done to prevent the chipping? Can anything be done to fix the small number of chips? A: I’ve seen lots of efforts on design shows to change tile color with paint. I’ve never done it. When we exchanged our 50-year-old porcelain bathroom sink for a vanity recently, I removed the broken toothbrush holder and soap dish above it, cleaned out the holes remaining, and my wife

found appropriate replacement tile. If the tiles are glossy, they need to be deglossed or scuffed up to get the paint to adhere to the surface. Floor tiles would be more difficult to keep painted than the ones on the wall because you walk on them. I guess you can give the paint another try. Chipping probably will remain a problem no matter how well and carefully you prep the surface of the tile. I recommend starting with a commercial tile cleaner, then a high-adhesion primer and an epoxy-based high-gloss paint. Keep the area well-ventilated, wear a mask and gloves. Questions? E-mail Alan J.

from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. today and noon to 5 p.m. Sunday. “This is like that elegant, romantic dinner for two that we’d all like to be part of,” Chris Yusavage said as she admired a table setting on the fourth level. Yusavage is from Ethan Allen of Dickson City, which supplied the furniture for the “dinner for two” as well as a “St. Patrick’s Day party” just a few steps away. Lora Hobbs of the Live With It gift shop of Peckville supplied the dishes, cutlery, vases, etc. for both of those displays. “I want to see what she did over here,” Yusavage said Friday morning, taking a peek at the St. Patrick’s day décor, which contained a strong showing of shamrock-covered Belleek china. Adding to the feeling that the display was for a very Irish party indeed, the names on the place cards indicated “Patrick,” “Brian,” “Bridget” and “Molly” were expected. Visit the exhibit this weekend

10-year-old boy needs supportive refuge from father’s hurtful words Dear Abby: My 10-year-old son has a school friend, “Jeremy.” I have seen Jeremy’s dad interact with him both in and out of school. The man talks down to him and speaks harshly. This sweet boy appears to be verbally beaten down, and it makes my heart ache. What can I do? I realize I don’t know what’s going on in their home. But every child deserves love and encouragement. Any advice you can give would be appreciated. — Advocate For Kindness in Kentucky Dear Advocate: Make Jeremy welcome in your home as often as you

DEAR ABBY ADVICE can, praise him when the opportunity arises and give him a willing ear if he needs to talk. Whatever “factors” are causing his father to treat him this way, they are no excuse for verbal abuse. Your kindness to that boy won’t fix his problems at home, but it WILL be remembered all the days of his life. Dear Abby: I got into a fight with my best friend. I’m 12, and she’s 13. We could have solved our own problems, but she got her parents involved. They started saying stuff on Facebook

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

about me and my parents. I forgave her, but I don’t want to forgive her parents. Abby, what would you do? — Can’t Forgive Dear Can’t Forgive: Your friend’s parents appear to be immature and overly involved in their daughter’s life. Most tweenage tiffs are resolved by the individuals having the argument. What her parents did was wrong. If they haven’t posted an apology on Facebook, they should. And if they don’t, my advice is to keep your distance from ALL of them, because regardless of whether you have forgiven your friend, this could happen again. Dear Abby: A group of about a dozen friends are planning a Caribbean

CRYPTOQUOTE

cruise. My boyfriend, “Isaac,” and I have been invited to join them. I love to travel. I don’t get to go on trips very often and have never been on a cruise or to the Caribbean, so I’m excited. Isaac, on the other hand, doesn’t care much for travel and doesn’t enjoy the ocean. He also doesn’t like my friend or her husband. They are the ones who are coordinating the trip and who invited us. Isaac rarely socializes with anyone who isn’t in his circle of friends. He doesn’t want to go and thinks I shouldn’t go, either. Isn’t it unfair of him to tell me I can’t go? Would it be wrong of me to go without him? He promises that if I don’t go, the two of us will go together next year. — Landlocked in Arizona

Dear Landlocked: If you don’t believe Isaac when he tells you he’ll do something, you must have good reason for it. Yes, it is unfair of him to tell you that you can’t take the cruise with your friends. It is also controlling. If you think you would have a good time without him, you should go. He can manage without you for a few days. Instead of trying to discourage you, he should wish you “bon voyage”— but the odds for that aren’t high, so don’t expect it. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, selfaddressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

GOREN BRIDGE WITH OMAR SHARIF & TANNAH HIRSCH PREVIOUS DAY’S SOLUTION

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You have to have access to all of the pieces. You won’t realize what’s missing until the assembly is under way. Don’t wait. Put things together, and you’ll figure out what more is needed soon enough. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). According to one urban dictionary, a “noob” is a name for someone who is bad at something because they are new to it; whereas, a “nub” lacks skill in spite of having plenty of experience. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Think about what the initial trigger was that put a chain of events in motion. The observations of an objective party could help. Avoid the mistake of focusing on the result. CANCER (June 22-July 22). Your drive is commendable, and it’s what attracts successful people to your side. However, be careful not to let a hungry ambition blind you to everything else that’s going on around you. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your intuition is so strong that you could be inspired to make a choice without bothering to put the matter through a decision-making process. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Rip Van Winkle took a 20-year nap and woke up to a changed world. You, on the other hand, are determined to stay wide awake. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re game to try new things. Whether or not you’ll like them isn’t the point. The point is that you’ll know more for trying. You’ll be in just the mood to say “yes.”

MINUTE MAZE JUMBLE BY MICHEAL ARGIRION & JEFF KNUREK

HOW TO CONTACT: Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You want to be more important in someone’s world. The strong water-sign influences overhead put you in touch with subtle emotional signals and help you find a way into the heart of another. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Take on a “hopeless” issue. It’s clear that what you already know isn’t enough to facilitate a breakthrough. You’ll access different knowledge. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’re ready to get a better grip on finances. Professional advice will likely be too severe. Handle things in a way that works for you, and relax. It’s just money. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Over-thinking is the enemy of fun. Designate a certain period of time (afternoon is best) to let loose and go bouncing around for a while. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your energy will be strongest on your birthday and during the three days on either side of it. Take extra care of yourself the two weeks before your birthday when your energy is muted. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (March 3). You’ll be a peacemaker and a healer because you respect opinions and beliefs that are different from your own. The harmony between your spiritual and physical life will help you ride the flow of life without too much stress. Psychic and emotional connections lead to moves and lifestyle upgrades in May. Cancer and Aries people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 22, 28 and 15.

Resurgent hot rod pinstripers keep old art alive TERRY BOX WHEELS DALLAS — Most weekends, 25-year-old Brad Meredith stands deep in the past, painting tiny lines that extend back to the candy-apple, rockabilly ’50s. By day, Meredith builds hot rods and custom cars with his father, Carl, at their 13-person shop, Carl’s Custom Cars in Red Oak, Calif. In his spare time, he immerses himself in the ancient art of pinstriping, "laying lines" with a fine brush down the sides of cars and on their trunks, hoods and panels. Meredith, who drives a primered 1930 Ford hot rod with a radically chopped top and a shift knob that looks like a hand grenade, is among a growing number of young pinstripers who are reviving a hotrod art form nearly lost in the 1970s and ’80s. "I want to walk in the steps of all these old masters," he said. The resurgence of pinstriping and its 20and 30-something practitioners is yet another indicator of hot-rodding’s robust state, adherents say. Fifteen years ago, rodders were deeply worried about the future of their billiondollar-a-year hobby. Most were in their 50s and 60s, sometimes paying $100,000 or more for a professionally built hot rod. Back then, the only young people in the sea of gray at hot-rod events were the rodders’ children or grandchildren. Today thousands of young enthusiasts supplement the veterans, encouraged by an underground "rat-rod" movement that began more than a decade ago and that celebrates rough, loud, home-built cars like the raucous rods of the ’50s. Those rat rods spurred a new appreciation for traditional hot rods, which in turn re-energized pinstriping. "Pinstriping started out to fix up old enamel paint jobs or a primered car," said long-

Acura’s TSX Sport Wagon is one of the latest attempts by automakers to convince American car buyers that station wagons can be cool. The TSX wagon is as sleek and stylish inside as it is outside. time hot-rod author and historian Pat Ganahl, a regular contributor to the Rodder’s Journal who has written 13 car-related books. "We went through all of these fads, and now that pinstriping is back, it has been distilled down to a pretty artful rendition," said Ganahl, 64, who wrote a book about the quirky, eccentric creator of hot-rod pin-

striping, Kenny "Von Dutch" Howard. "They’re able to do much better work now than we ever saw in the ’50s." Pinstriping can involve one or two lines — often in contrasting colors — along a vehicle’s side body creases. It can also take the form of more intricate teardrop or handlebar-moustache shapes painted with multiple stripes.

Meredith began pinstriping seven years ago, practicing for four years before he felt confident enough to try it on other peoples’ cars. He also stripes motorcycles, helmets, trucks and other items. Like stripers from decades ago, he learned techniques from older mentors, including the late James Crawford of Garland, Texas, who pinstriped dozens of

vehicles in North Texas. "When someone brings a $100,000 car to you, you really have to be comfortable that you’re putting the right stripe on it," Meredith said. He said he pursued the art because he couldn’t afford to pay someone $200 or $300 to pinstripe his hot rod. Among his pinstriping peers is 31-year-old Tanner Leaser of Arlington, Texas. "I could stay busy seven days a week just doing cars in Texas," said Leaser, who is also a partner in a skateboard company. "I fly all over the country doing pinstriping — everything from pulling a factory line on a Kia to pinstriping a rat rod." He developed hand control through painting signs — just as stripers did in the ’50s — and continues to letter signs. But his ultimate goal is to become as good as the old Southern California masters. "I can pinstripe two colors front-to-back in 20 minutes or so, and I usually charge $150 to $200 for that," said Leaser, who described his annual pinstriping income as "nice." "If I’m doing a low-rider with five lines and lots of intricate work, that can be $1,500 to $2,000," he said. Leaser and others practice an art developed by the mercurial Von Dutch in the early ’50s at shops in east Los Angeles and publicized in a Car Craft article in 1955, Ganahl said. Von Dutch, a lifelong alcoholic who sometimes worked under the name J.L. Bachs (Joe Lunch Box), died from alcoholrelated complications in 1992. "You have all these ancient pinstripers from the ’50s who are like gods and all these kids who worship them and want to learn the art," Ganahl said. "It’s an interesting reinterpretation of the ’50s." ———
