Claim on Ciavarella pension withdrawn

HE’S COOL WITH RECORD-BREAKING DAY

DPW believes funds subject to a separate forfeiture order issued against former judge. By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

HARRISBURG – The state Department of Public Welfare has withdrawn a $4.3 million lien it placed against former Luzerne County Judge Mark Ciavarella’s pension, clearing the way for the ex-jurist to seek to collect more than $180,351 in contributions he made to the pension fund. Al Flora, Ciavarella’s attorCiavarella ney, said an attorney for the State Employees’ Retirement System notified him about a week ago that DPW had dropped its claim. The decision means Ciavarella can petition SERS to release the money. Whether he would get to keep any of it remains unclear, however. Michael Race, a spokesman for DPW, said the department decided to withdraw its claim because it believes the funds are subject to a separate forfeiture order that was issued against Ciavarella by U.S. District Judge Edwin Kosik. The DPW claim, filed in 2009, sought to recoup additional costs the department says it incurred to house juveniles at the two priSee CIAVARELLA, Page 7A

The agency is the cancer arm of the World Health Organization and the assessment now goes to WHO and national health agencies for possible guidance on cellphone use.

include the pesticide DDT and gasoline engine exhaust. Last year, results of a large study found no clear link between cellphones and cancer.

Barletta touts proposed legislation targeting ‘sanctuary cities’ U.S. rep. cites illegal immigration as serious threat and expense.

U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Hazleton, discusses the Mobilizing Against Sanctuary Cities Act, his first piece of legislation as a member of Congress, during an appearance at Hazleton City Hall on Tuesday.

PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER

HAZLETON – U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta is taking the fight against illegal immigration that began five years ago in Hazleton to Congress. Standing on the steps of Hazleton City Hall, where he served as mayor for more than 10 years, Barletta, R-Hazleton, un-

veiled his first piece of legislation – the “Mobilizing Against Sanctuary Cities Act,” or MASC Act. Barletta said the bill will crack down on what he termed “sanctuary cities” – municipalities where elected officials willfully choose to not enforce immigration policy – by withholding all federal funding from them as long as their sanctuary policies are in place. “Later today, I am returning to Washington and I’m bringing this bill from Hazleton and intro-

ducing it in the United States House of Representatives,” he said. “Four weeks ago, just a few miles from here, a police chief stopped an illegal alien who has been in the country for six years. This man didn’t know his address. He had an arrest record. He had no job. He had $3,000 in cash in his pockets. He had two public benefit access cards,” the freshman congressman said. “And the federal govSee BARLETTA, Page 10A

WILKES-BARRE -- Beloved Irish singer Daniel O’Donnell brought his patented mixture of country music, inspirational ballads, 1960s pop and traditional Irish music to a near-capacity crowd at the F.M. Kirby Center for the Performing Arts Tuesday, alternately transporting the audience to Dublin with one tune and Nashville with the next. O’Donnell, who rose to fame in this country through a series of popular PBS specials, has always been enamored with American country music. The Kirby Center show on Tuesday had perhaps a few more country songs than usual in anticipation of his 11th television special, “Daniel O’Donnell: Live From Nashville,” which will be premiering in August. And the man born and raised in Kincasslagh, County Donegal, Ireland, certainly has a way with a country song. Highlights of his

performance included no less than three Hank Williams numbers, one made famous by Anne Murray, a bluegrass favorite by Bill Monroe and a five-song set of country gospel tunes. His singing partner of nearly 24 years, Mary Duff, also has a way with a country song, as her performance Tuesday made clear. Her best numbers included a gorgeous rendition of Tammy Wynette’s “Stand By Your Man” and a duet with O’Donnell on “Whispering Hope.” O’Donnell hit his stride early in the evening with a fine version of “My Wild Irish Rose” to satisfy the people wanting Irish favorites and a nice “Release Me” for those wanting country favorites. Other early highlights included “Footsteps” and “Moon Over Ireland,” the title tune of O’Donnell’s latest CD. In the middle of the show, O’Donnell featured his inspirational gems including nice renditions of “Peace in the Valley,” “Just a Closer Walk with Thee” and “Church in the Wildwood.” After an intermission, O’Donnell treated the crowd to a nifty Elvis medley that included “She’s Not You,” “Love Me Ten-

der” and “All Shook Up.” He then did what he called the “Green Grass to Bluegrass” portion of the show, tracing the roots of country music to Irish tunes such as “Danny Boy.” Duff sang two of her most famous songs, “Will You Walk With Me” and “Making Believe,” in the second half of the show, while showing her quick-change skills with numerous wardrobe changes. The Irish singer closed his show with two of his longtime fan favorites “I Just Want To Dance With You” and “Stand Beside Me” to a rousing ovation. O’Donnell, Duff and the Daniel O’Donnell Band will be back at the Kirby Center tonight for a performance at 7.

DALLAS TWP. – A $3 million state grant will help fund the construction of two buildings on Misericordia University’s campus. Without Gov. Tom Corbett releasing the funds, Misericordia University President Michael MacDowell said, it’s likely only one of the two buildings would have been constructed. “This is not the best time to be raising money,” MacDowell said. “We really stretched our contributors.” He said the building that would have been put on hold is the planned 37,000-square-foot, three-floor structure that will house a day care, dorm rooms and a classroom and will be built where the current baseball field

Driver with chemicals dies

Driver’s insurance to pay $75,000, with most going to passenger who suffered neck fracture in wreck. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – The insurance companies of a 16-year-old charged with causing a deadly car accident were ordered Tuesday to pay $75,000 to another teen injured in the accident. In a compromise and settlement agreement, the insurance companies of Scott Smith and his stepfather, David Snyder, Erie Insurance and Allstate Insurance, must pay the amount to Courtney Neishell and her mother, Melissa, for a neck fracture the teen received in the January accident. Smith, 16, was charged with homicide by motor vehicle, accidents involving injury and driving while not licensed after the Jan. 3 crash on Suscon Road in Pittston Kayla McGra- Township.

Smith was declared a juvenile delinquent in February, and at a disposition hearing earlier this month was ordered to be placed in programs at Alternative Rehabilitation Communities Inc. until the age of 21. In court papers filed Tuesday, an attorney for Neishell, Richard Russo, said Neishell was treated at the Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township by a neurosurgeon and primary care physician who diagnosed the teen with a neck fracture. Courtney’s mother, court papers say, has incurred medical expenses, mostly handled by automobile and health insurance. After negotiations, court papers say, Erie Insurance can pay a limit of $50,000, while Allstate can pay $25,000, and that Neishell would accept the offers. Court papers say the law firm where Russo works, Rosenn, Jenkins and Greenwald, would receive $21,000 and $289 as reimbursement and payment. Approximately $6,120 would also be paid to Geisinger Health Plan. Luzerne County Judge Tina Polachek Gartley signed an order Tuesday, releasing the money as follows: $4,000 to Geisinger Health Plan; $21,289 to Rosenn, Jenkins and Greenwald; and $49,710 to Melissa Neishell to be held in a bank account.

Fire Chief Roy King said the truck’s driver pulled into the parking lot to ask directions and noticed flaming material dripping from beneath the engine compartment. The driver was uninjured. The truck is owned by Hoopes Turf Farming of Ulysses, Potter County.

Chief backs off on mercaptan Gas firm says it would not store flammable substance at potential metering site near Dallas schools.

By STEVE MOCARSKY smocarsky@timesleader.com

DALLAS TWP. – Chief Gathering LLC will not store mercaptan – a flammable odorant added to natural gas – at a potential metering site off Hildebrandt Road if the site is approved by the township Zoning Hearing Board. Kenneth Komoroski, an attorney with Fulbright & Jaworski in Canonsburg representing Chief in an application for a special exception to construct and operate the station, stipulat-

ed before the board on Tuesday that the company was no longer seeking permission for an 8,000-gallon mercaptan tank at the site. The presence of mercaptan at the site was a major point of contention for area residents as well as Dallas School District officials. The site is about 1,300 feet from the Dallas schools. The School Board has officially opposed the metering station since March because members felt it could harm the health and safety of employees and about 2,800 children attending district schools. The board last week had tabled a decision to enter into an agreement with Chief stipulating that Chief would not locate natural gas compression equip-

ment or odorant equipment and storage containment of mercaptan at the proposed site, but Komoroski said those conditions hold true regardless of whether the School Board approves the agreement. The hearing on the application continued Tuesday with testimony from Chief Gathering Operations Manager Steven Hamilton. Komoroski called Hamilton to testify primarily because Ted Wurfel, Chief’s vice president of Environmental, Safety and Regulatory Affairs, was unable to answer some questions at the previous hearing session and deferred questions from attorneys and the pubSee CHIEF, Page 7A

Ex-Shenandoah chief’s attorneys challenge feds By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Attorneys for former Shenandoah police chief Matthew Nestor are challenging conclusions of federal probation department officials that would add nearly four years to his potential prison sentence under federal sentencing guidelines. Nestor is scheduled to be sentenced this morning for falsifying a police report relating to the 2008 death of Luis Ramirez, an illegal immigrant who was beaten to death by several Shenandoah teenagers. A pre-sentence investigation by probation officials determined the sentencing guidelines for the offense call for a prison sentence of 57 to 71months. In a pre-sentence memorandum filed Tuesday, Nestor’s attorneys, James West and Joseph Nahas, contend probation officials utilized the wrong legal standard. They maintain the guideline range should be no more than 21 to 27

months in prison. Nestor was convicted in January of filing a false police report based on his failure to include certain information relating to the Ramirez invesNestor tigation. Prosecutors say Nestor failed to mention in the report that he had spoken to the mother of Brandon Piekarsky, one of the teens convicted of killing Ramirez, and failed to include the names of all the alleged assailants. The dispute regarding sentencing centers on the probation department’s determination that Nestor’s actions involved the “obstruction into the investigation or prosecution of a criminal offense.” Under federal law, obstructing an investigation increases the severity of the offense, which impacts the sentencing guidelines. In order to consider the

matter for sentencing purposes, prosecutors must show there was a false report and that it impacted the criminal investigation, West and Nahas said in court papers. The attorneys acknowledge Nestor omitted information from his police report, but they argue the omissions did not impact the investigation; therefore, they cannot be considered in determining the sentencing guideline range. Nestor is scheduled to appear before U.S. District Judge A. Richard Caputo at 10 a.m. in federal court in WilkesBarre. Caputo will review the arguments contained in the pre-sentence memorandum, as well as the government’s reply, in determining which guideline range is appropriate. Caputo could also opt to sentence Nestor outside of the guideline range, which is advisory. The judge is free to impose a more or less severe sentence, but must state his reasons on the record should he decide to do so.

A Shavertown man who crashed his vehicle after being overcome by fumes of a chemical mixture died at a Harrisburg hospital on Sunday. Mark Burgess, 47, was flown to Pinnacle Hospital on Friday after he crashed his sport utility vehicle into a tree at the intersection of Shadetree and Woodbine roads at around 8 p.m. Emergency crews responding to the crash discovered a cooler containing muriatic acid and lime sulfur on the front seat of the vehicle, Kingston Township police officer John Chipego said. Chipego said authorities believe Burgess passed out due to the mixing of the chemicals, which produce hydrogen sulfide, a hazardous gas that prevents oxygen from getting into the blood stream. Burgess was initially treated in the emergency room at the Wilkes-Barre General Hospital, which was temporarily shut down Friday evening as a precaution while emergency management officials determined if there was any danger to medical personnel or the public. Burgess was later flown to the Harrisburg hospital, which specializes in the treatment of chemical burns. John Friel of the Dauphin County Coroner’s Office on Tuesday said the office has not yet determined whether Burgess died from traumatic injuries suffered in the crash or from breathing in the chemical fumes. The cause and manner of death remain under investigation. KINGSTON

WILKES-BARRE

Health trust trial opens

A trial for a lawsuit seeking millions of dollars in health insurance funds began Tuesday in Luzerne County Court. The case, being heard in a non-jury trial before Luzerne County Judge Lewis Wetzel, is scheduled to last the entire week, and involves a lawsuit filed by the Pittston Area and Dallas school districts against the Northeast Pennsylvania School District Health Trust. The suit is seeking what the districts say is their share of a $20 million surplus. That surplus, which is currently at $10 million – is the equivalent of two and a half months of trust expenses. Both districts withdrew from the trust, which argues that the agreement signed by all members makes it clear any surplus stays with the trust when a district leaves.

2011 hurricane prediction tough

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — The tough task of guessing what hurricane season will look like could be even more difficult this year for forecasters, who won’t be able to rely on the relatively predictable forces known as El Nino and La Nina. So far, the National Hurricane Center in Miami is predicting that the season that begins today will be busier than normal, with as many as 18 named tropical storms, three to six of them major hurricanes. El Nino and La Nina — warming and cooling trends in the ocean that can either rev up hurricanes or suppress them

— are expected to be essentially neutral, complicating any predictions. The last time temperatures were neutral was 2005, when hurricanes Katrina and Rita hammered the Gulf Coast with lethal results. “With a strong La Nina or El Nino year, the forecast is much easier,” said Dan Kottlowski, senior meteorologist at AccuWeather.com. “Since we don’t have a strong signal toward El Nino or La Nina, there’s somewhat more uncertainty in trying to determine how strong this season will be.” The La Nina effect is a cooling of Pacific Ocean waters near the equator. It decreases wind shear in the Atlantic and can give storms extra giddyap as they form. It has been linked to above-average hurricane seasons in the Atlantic. But it appears to be weakening. The opposite phenomenon, El Nino, warms Pacific waters, increases wind shear and can blow storms apart. But El

Waves caused by Hurricane Dennis hit the island community of Cedar Key, Fla., in 2005, the last hurricane season when El Nino and La Nina were essentially neutral. A busier than normal season this year is predicted. AP FILE PHOTO

Nino isn’t happening this season. La Nina helped make last year the third-most active hurricane season on record, said meteorologist Jeff Masters. Last year, there were 19 named storms, 12 of which became hurricanes, including Earl, which sideswiped North Carolina just before Labor Day weekend and was the first hurricane to threaten New England since 1991.

The seasonal average is 11 named storms, including six hurricanes, two them major. Meteorologists say La Nina also contributed to this past winter’s barrage of blizzards in the northern United States, heavy summer flooding in Australia and recent tornadoes in the Southeastern U.S. But those events are no indication of what hurricane season might be like.

Afghanistan to NATO: Halt house bombings

UNTIL THE COWS COME HOME

TRIPOLI, LIBYA

Gadhafi says he’s staying

oammar Gadhafi insists he will not leave his country, South AfriM ca’s president said Tuesday after he

met the embattled Libyan ruler. Gadhafi’s departure is the key demand of rebel forces battling his troops. On Tuesday, Italy’s foreign minister pledged to provide Libya’s rebels with fuel and hundreds of millions of dollars backed by frozen assets of Gadhafi’s regime. The hard lines of the two sides and the competing, high-level visits illustrated the virtual stalemate in the conflict. NATO aircraft bomb the Libyan capital night after night, and military forces from the two sides engage each other in battles, shelling and rocket attacks, little is changing on the ground.

WASHINGTON

High risk premiums slashed

Trying to spur enrollment in a key new benefit of the 2010 health law, the Obama administration said Tuesday that it’s slashing premiums for new high-risk insurance plans and no longer requiring applicants to submit a rejection letter from private insurers. Since the plans were introduced in most states last summer, enrollment has fallen far short of expectations; only about 18,000 people have signed up. The Congressional Budget Office had estimated that as many as 4 million uninsured Americans would be eligible and that 200,000 would be enrolled by 2013. The government set aside $5 billion to fund the plans. ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN

Journalist is found dead

A Pakistani journalist who investigated al-Qaida’s alleged infiltration of the navy and told a rights activist he’d been threatened by the country’s intelligence agencies was found dead Tuesday. Police said his body showed signs of torture. Syed Saleem Shahzad’s death underscores the dangers of reporting in Pakistan, which in 2010 was called the deadliest country for journalists. It could also increase scrutiny of Pakistan’s security agencies, already under domestic pressure since the May 2 U.S. raid that killed Osama bin Laden. Shahzad, a correspondent for the Asia Times Online as well as Italian news agency Adnkronos International, went missing Sunday from Islamabad while on his way to appear on a television show. A senior Pakistani intelligence official denied allegations that the agency had anything to do with Shahzad’s case. BOWLING GREEN, VA.

Bus company had citations

The company that operates the bus that overturned on a Virginia highway, killing four and injuring several others early Tuesday, has been involved in several accidents over the last two years. It also has been cited for 46 violations for drivers being fatigued, which police believe contributed to this crash. The Sky Express bus departed Greensboro, N.C., on Monday night and was headed to Chinatown in New York City with 58 people aboard, including the driver, said state police Sgt. Thomas Molnar. The bus had swerved off Interstate 95, hit an embankment and flipped over about 30 miles north of Richmond. The driver suffered minor injuries and is cooperating with investigators, Molnar said.

Rebuilding under way in Joplin

Nine days after tornado kills scores in Missouri city, recovery effort in smashed area picks up speed. By JIM SALTER Associated Press

JOPLIN, Mo. — Home Depot employees in orange vests were busy helping customers Tuesday in the parking lot of the Joplin store flattened just nine days ago by a tornado. There wasn’t a lot to choose from just yet, but the store’s reopening and quick sales of roofing material, lumber and other necessities showed city residents’ determination to begin rebuilding quickly after the May 22 tornado that cut a 6-mile swath through the heart of this community of nearly 50,000 residents. Home Depot itself already has a 30,000-square-foot temporary building framed and expected to open within a couple of weeks. Until then, it’s selling a smaller selection of urgently needed products from an outdoor area in the parking lot.

“We’re trying to let people know we’re not just a retail store to take their money. We’re here,” store manager Steve Cope said. It will be a long time before Joplin completely rebuilds from the tornado packing winds of up to 200 mph. An estimated 8,000 homes and apartments were damaged or destroyed, along with hundreds of commercial buildings, schools, the largest hospital, power transformers and other infrastructure. But the work has already begun. Electrical crews have hoisted up new power poles in many places. Small businesses are operating out of tents or have moved to undamaged areas of town. A pharmacy’s sign read, “We are open. Pray for Joplin,” and offered free water, coffee and diabetic meters. Workers are busily repairing roofs and rebuilding walls in industrial areas. A beauty shop leveled by the storm has a new building well under way, with framing and walls complete, an American flag hanging from a 2-by-4 out the front window.

Despite the scattered signs of progress, the rebuilding can’t begin in earnest until the millions of tons of debris is hauled away.

KABUL, Afghanistan — Afghanistan’s president on Tuesday ordered NATO to stop bombing homes because of the possibility of civilian casualties, putting him on a collision course with his Western protectors who insist the attacks are an essential weapon and will continue. It was Hamid Karzai’s strongest-ever statement against alliance airstrikes and further complicated a difficult relationship with the Obama administration as it prepares a troop drawdown in the increasingly unpopular war. Karzai’s remarks were prompted by a recent air attack that mistakenly killed a group of children and women in southern Helmand province. Karzai declared it would be the last. “From this moment, airstrikes on the houses of people are not allowed,” Karzai told reporters in Kabul. Ordering airstrikes is a command decision in Afghanistan, where NATO spokeswoman Maj. Sunset Belinsky insisted they would continue. “Coalition forces constantly strive to reduce the chance of civilian casualties and damage to structures,” Belinsky said. “But when the insurgents use civilians as a shield and put our forces in a position where their only option is to use airstrikes, then they will take that option.”

16 die, hundreds sickened in European contamination By DAVID RISING and MARIA CHENG Associated Press

BERLIN — A massive and unprecedented outbreak of bacterial infections linked to contaminated vegetables claimed two more lives in Europe on Tuesday, driving the death toll to 16. The number of sick rose to more than 1,150 people in at least eight nations. Nearly 400 people in Germany were battling a severe and potentially fatal version of the infection that attacks the kidneys and kills up to 5 percent of patients. A U.S. expert said doctors had never seen so many cases of the condition, hemolytic uremic syn-

drome, tied to a foodborne outbreak. Investigators across Europe were frantically trying to determine how many vegetables were contaminated with enterohaemorrhagic E.coli — an unusual, toxic strain of the common E. coli bacterium — and where in the long journey from farm to grocery store the contamination occurred. The highly politicized mystery deepened with new evidence that German vegetables may have been contaminated by at least two strains of enterohaemorrhagic E.coli, or EHEC. Authorities in Hamburg said last week that they had detected EHEC on

four cucumbers in a market in the northern German city, three imported from Spain and the fourth of unclear origin. On Tuesday, however, officials said they had found a slightly different type of EHEC on the cucumbers than the strain detected in the feces of sick people in Germany. That means those cucumbers did not cause the outbreak but posed a health risk nonetheless, the German officials said. Spain’s agriculture minister, Rosa Aguilar, seized on the find as evidence that “our cucumbers are not responsible for the situation.”

Spanish farmers whose produce has been cited as a possible source of the deadly bacterial infection in Europe are angry about being blamed.

Strong suffers from brain damage, doctors testify Sentencing hearing continues for man convicted in shooting death of John Strock in 1983. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Convicted murderer James Strong suffers from major mental disabilities and brain damage, two doctors testified in the third day of testimony in a sentencing hearing being held for Strong. Doctors Jethro Toomer and James Merikangas testified throughout the day that the dis-

abilities and damage have been with Strong his entire life and continue to affect him. Strong, 59, Strong was convicted last week of first-degree murder in the August 1983 shooting death of John Strock in a wooded area in Dorrance Township. Strong had been convicted of the murder and sentenced to death in 1984, but his sentence and conviction were overturned in 2000 after the state Supreme

Court found Strong’s one-time co-defendant, James Alexander, had failed to disclose a deal he had with prosecutors. The jury that convicted Strong last week for a second time is now hearing testimony in the sentencing hearing, where they will then be tasked with deciding if Strong should spend the rest of his life in prison or receive the death penalty. Testimony in the hearing will continue today. The hearing was moved to the Luzerne County Courthouse’s Bernard C. Brominski Building due to the repair of air conditioning in

the main courthouse. Toomer, of Miami, Fla., testified he examined Strong in 1995 and earlier this year. His psychological findings in 2011 are very similar to 1996, Toomer said, when he diagnosed Strong with personality and bipolar disorders and suffering from brain damage. Toomer testified Strong has an average IQ score and could not duplicate nine images on cards in what’s called a Bender-Gestalt test. Toomer said Strong’s drawings had poor line quality, were spaced very close together and

had irregular angles. Toomer determined from a personality test that Strong suffers from both personality and bipolar disorder. He said he did not feel as if Strong was faking answers. Toomer said he felt Strong had these problems for his entire life and Strong can’t appreciate the outcome of his actions. Merikangas, a professor at the George Washington School of Medicine in Washington, D.C., testified Strong suffers from two types of brain damage: damage received at birth

and damage because of an injury. Merikangas, a psychiatrist, said he examined Strong in 1996 and earlier this year, and the results of his testing were also the same each time except for Strong’s brain deteriorating further. Merikangas testified a recent MRI on Strong’s brain showed multiple lesions, multiple areas that are destroyed or damaged and evidence of tiny strokes. “(Strong has) extreme mental and emotional disturbances (he suffered from) at the time of the offense,” Merikangas said.

lic to the company’s operations manager. Hamilton testified that the 10foot-high flare that would have been used to burn off mercaptan gas when pressure became high would not be needed at the site either. He said the controversial compressor station that Chief initially wanted to locate at the site would be about 25 miles away. Hamilton explained the operations that would take place at the metering station – measuring the amount of natural gas that Chief would feed into the Transco pipeline and removing moisture and any other debris from upstream gathering pipelines whenever they are cleaned with an electronic “smart pig.” Transco and Chief equipment would also be used to monitor the flow of gas for quality and pressure, and a 100-foot-tall radio tower on site would allow Transco to adjust or shut down the gas flow re-

motely. Attorney Mark McNealis, representing nearby land owners, questioned Hamilton on numerous aspects of site operations as well as whether it was necessary for a metering station to be so close to the Transco pipeline. Hamilton said it was not physically necessary but having one further away would be impractical for Transco. McNealis asked about ill-effects of handling glycol, a dehydrating agent used to remove water from the natural gas. The substance would be collected in a 2,000-gallon tank on-site. Hamilton said rubber gloves are used to handle it because it can dry the skin. Resident Joe Cigan asked about protective equipment employees would wear on-site before Komoroski asked whether he was asking the question as a resident or as an attorney with the state Department of Environmental Protection. Cigan said he was asking as a resident and has two children attending Dallas schools. After the

hearing, Cigan said he didn’t believe a facility at which employees had to wear protective equipment or a 100-foot radio tower belonged in a residential neighborhood. Resident Kim Jacobs asked whether it “made sense” to locate a metering station so close to a school. Hamilton said it did to him because “it’s a safe process.” Norm Tomchak, a retired locomotive engineer, asked several technical questions, including whether Chief or Transco studied whether the tower would interfere with local police and fire communications. “I’ve seen it happen before,” Tomchak said. Hamilton said Chief did not perform any such study and he wasn’t sure about Transco.

pensate victims, Race said. Ciavarella could challenge the seizure of his pension contribution funds, should the government attempt to do so. No action has been taken yet, as Ciavarella has not even attempted to secure the money. Flora said he was advised verbally that DPW dropped its claim but has not received written confirmation. Once he does, he will file paperwork seeking to release the money. Flora said he believes it’s clear that Ciavarella is entitled to his

contributions, but it remains unresolved whether he can collect interest that has accrued on that money, which equaled roughly $52,000 as of December 31, 2008. His access to the interest will be dependent upon the resolution of a separate forfeiture action filed by SERS that seeks to deny Ciavarella his monthly pension benefit, estimated at $5,156, based on the criminal charges against him. SERS has refused to pay the pension, citing a state pension law that permits the denial of

benefits to persons convicted of certain crimes related to their public employment. Ciavarella contends the crimes for which he was convicted do not trigger the pension forfeiture law. Should Ciavarella prevail in that case, he would be entitled to collect his monthly pension, as well as the interest that accrued on his contributions, Flora said. A hearing on that matter was scheduled for Thursday in Harrisburg, but was postponed at Flora’s request. No new date has been set.

Kosik approved the forfeiture in March, clearing the way for the government to seize any property or assets he has that it determines were derived from his crimes.

Former area TV reporter in HBO film ‘Too Big to Fail’ Kathy McLaughlin Coslett, who has three-minute speaking role in movie, worked for WYOU. By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

Former local television reporter Kathy McLaughlin Coslett can be seen in the recently released HBO film “Too Big to Fail.” The actress – who uses the stage name Kathleen Coslett – has a speaking role in the madefor-HBO docudrama that adapts

Andrew Ross Sorkin’s expose of the 2008 Wall Street financial meltdown. The movie features William Hurt as Coslett U.S. Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, who struggles in a battle between the key players on Wall Street and the powers that be in Washington, D.C. The cast also includes Paul Giamatti, James Woods, Ed Asner, Cynthia Nixon, Billy Crudup

and Tony Shalhoub. Coslett, 53, was cast as the secretary to the board of directors of Lehman Brothers. During her 3minute scene on camera, Coslett has two speaking lines and she polls her fellow Lehman board members on a vote to file for bankruptcy. James Woods plays the chairman and CEO of Lehman Brothers.

“It truly was exciting,” said Coslett, of Harveys Lake. “I’ve received so many phone calls and e-mails since the movie appeared. It’s all a big laugh; it was so much fun.” According to her biography, Coslett is an award-winning broadcast journalist turned actor. She was born in Philadelphia and began her career there, at KYW

TV. She later worked in radio news in Atlantic City and then TV news in Northeastern Pennsylvania at WYOU. The movie was shot in New York City and Coslett reported to work daily as other cast members milled about. The director was Oscar-winner Curtis Hanson (“8 Mile,” “L.A. Confidential”). It was an experience Coslett said

she will never forget and one that she hopes is repeated. “I’m not finished,” Coslett said of her movie career. “You never know what might be around the corner.” The movie is scheduled to be shown at several upcoming times on HBO, including Wednesday at midnight and Friday at 12:30 p.m.

OUR OPINION: PUBLIC SWIM SPOTS

Fate of pools drains our spirit

ITY THE CHILD whose family can afford a swimsuit and possibly those “water wings” but can’t swing the membership fee at a private swim club. No dough, no cool dip for you, kiddo. Public pools – once America’s summertime oases for middleand low-income families – increasingly are drying up, literally, because communities don’t want to cover the costs to maintain them, according to an Associated Press article in Tuesday’s edition of The Times Leader. Officials struggling to balance municipal budgets from New York City to Sacramento, Calif., view the outdoor pools as money pits rather than important recreational and social venues. Sadly, the aquatic outlook is no different in many parts of Northeastern Pennsylvania. Wilkes-Barre, for instance, scrapped its Olympic-sized swimming pool at Coal Street Park and instead plans to soon replace it with a “splash pad.” The new setup won’t require a lifeguard and doesn’t involve any standing water, as in certain public fountains that potentially pose health risks.

We can’t be sure, but “splash pad” sounds like a glorified version of “garden hose.” Yeah, you’ll get wet, but you can’t cannonball. On the hottest days, if inexpensive pool passes are no longer an option, will children and teens drift to more dangerous watery refuges: lakes and rivers? Many suburban youths, of course, can befriend a neighbor with a backyard pool. But we wonder how long before Nintendo unveils a Wii version of the 1960s-era public pool – allowing players, while indoors and totally dry, to pretend they’re diving from a platform or bobbing in the deep end. Much like drive-in movies and musical ice cream trucks, today’s public pools seem an endangered summer species. If they fade from the landscape, gone will be a prime place for people of all economic classes to intermingle. Gone will be the thrill of mastering a new swim stroke. Or, for that matter, finally working up the nerve to flirt. For those reasons and more, the national decline of public swimming pools leaves us with a sinking feeling. And, yes, just a bit hotter under the collar.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “I don’t think I owe anything to the mainstream media. Sarah Palin The former Alaska governor, who might be contemplating a run for the Republican nomination for president, declined this week to tell reporters the exact destination and scheduled stops of her ‘One Nation’ bus tour.

In the heat of summer, don’t leave pets in car

ell, here we go again. The temperature last Wednesday afternoon was 86 degrees and as I was exiting Wegmans, taking my groceries to my car, I heard a dog frantically barking. Sure enough, there was this huge black dog sitting in a red car. Granted, the owner probably thought that if he/she left the windows open half way, the dog would be fine. Well, sadly, that’s what a lot of people think. Let me give you the facts as pointed out by the Animal Protection Institute: On a hot day the inside of a car heats very quickly. On an 85-degree day, for example, the temperature inside your car – with the windows slightly opened – will reach 102 degrees in 10 minutes. In 30 minutes it will go up to 120 degrees. On warmer days, it will go even higher. A dog’s normal body temperature is 101.5 to 102.2 degrees Fahrenheit. A dog can withstand a body temperature of 107 to 108 degrees Fahrenheit for only a short time before suffering irreparable brain damage – or even death. The closed car interferes with the dog’s normal cooling process, that is, evaporation through panting. Also, here is some important information from the API: If your dog is overcome by heat exhaustion, you can give immediate first aid by immersing him/her in cold water until the body temperature is lowered. For further information, please go to www.MyDogIsCool.com. You wouldn’t leave your baby in the car; why would you do it to your dog? Fran Berdy Wilkes-Barre

Reduction in teachers a sour note in Pittston

am writing regarding a serious matter that was discussed at a recent Pittston Area School Board meeting. Six teachers are retiring this year (including one music teacher), and only two of the six will be replaced. The proposed plan is to combine and redistribute the work of four music teachers over the remaining three. For a program that has grown in both respect and success over the past years, I feel it will be a sad day for the new students coming into fourth grade. Instead of smaller class sizes and supportive staff, they will be faced with a taxed staff that is just trying to “make it work.” Speaking as a parent of a student in this program, and with many friends with children in this program, I find it appalling that the school board can take it on faith that the program will not be affected.

I know how easy it is to melt into the background of a situation. Instead of being lifted up and given the appropriate motivation, these kids will just have to “make it work.” What a sad day for the board to not try to find a way to support an award-winning program!

Police cars should follow parking rules in Duryea

t around noon on Friday, I was driving past the Healey Playground on Wright Street in Duryea when I noticed an Avoca police car parked next to it. The officer(s) apparently were attending some sort of picnic or open house at Roll Call police shop across Foote Avenue from the playground. My issue is that the police car was parked on the playground side of Wright Street, where there are two signs clearly indicating “no parking this side of street.” Parking is not permitted there for a reason: Children leaving the playground might attempt to cross the street here. Parked cars will impede motorists’ view of children if they attempt to cross between the cars, creating a safety hazard. Theresa Klimchak Duryea

Miners, as well as vets, deserve our recognition

n Memorial Day, I reflect on the days after World War II. I was a small child, and the mystery and fear of the enemy who might fly from afar, as the Japanese did at Pearl Harbor, was always there. Radar was not widely in use yet and air raid drills were common at night. It was fear combined with the excitement. When the war ended, my brother Chet and I celebrated by clanging pots and pans in the street. No more rationing, no more stamps for meat, butter or eggs. Mom didn’t have to spend as much time at the Red Cross making bandages. Something bothered me though, some-

thing that I now see as petty. My Dad, Chet Sr., was a handsome man and a wonderful father. However, when the troops came home, especially in our neighborhood, Daddy was the only one who never wore a uniform. Every day he came home in dirty miner’s clothes, carrying a lunch pail, always greeting us with a smile. Why couldn’t he have joined the service, too? I never realized that he had a job that was so important to the war effort. The factories that produced airplanes, tanks, guns, ammunition and clothes were all powered by coal. Mom’s brother, Al Pallini, served in combat for four years. Occasionally he’d send us a photograph from the front, and he, too, always wore a smile. When Uncle Al came home, he married his hometown gal and took a job in the mines, where the money was better than anywhere else. He was dead in six months, after his skull had been crushed by mine machinery. Both groups – veterans and miners – were heroes, but often the miners were unsung and deserve more recognition. God bless all of them, and thank you all for the service you’ve given your country, abroad and at home. Deanna Innamorati Farrell West Wyoming

End of world prediction ran counter to Scripture

uring his earthly ministry, Jesus, the son of God as man, did not know when the Apocalypse/Parousia would occur. This makes sense, since he really and truly became a human being and was not faking it. “His state was divine, yet he ... emptied himself ..., and became as men are ...” (Philippians 2:6-7). He hoped that the end would occur soon, but as man he really did not know when. He took some general stabs at designating the time. Regarding the signs of the end, he stated, “This generation will not pass away till all these things have been accomplished” (Mark 13:28). Elsewhere he said, “Truly I assure you there are some standing here who will not die before they see the kingdom of God come with power” (Matthew 16:28). There is a text in which Jesus admits he does not know when the end will come. “Of that day or that hour no one knows, not even ... the Son, but only the Father” (Mark 13:32). Most Scripture scholars think these words constitute an historic statement of Jesus, because it ran against the grain of the early church to attribute ignorance to Christ. The Gospel authors would not invent such a statement. In view of all this, Harold Camping’s prediction that the Rapture would occur at 6 p.m. May 21 reveals on his part a lack of critical knowledge of the Scriptures. Surely he would not presume to know better than Jesus. Charles DeCelles Dunmore

Barletta, Marino vote against upping debt ceiling without cuts

By JON RISKIND Times Leader Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON – GOP reps. Lou Barletta of Hazleton and Tom Marino of Lycoming Township joined other House Republicans Tuesday evening in voting against increasing the debt ceiling. The vote was on a bill the House GOP essentially put on the

spending spree the president’s been on the last two years has to come to an end, and it’s going to starthereontheHousefloorwhere

floor to show that increasing the debt ceiling without attaching spending cuts to the increase won’t pass the House. “Voting to increase the debt ceiling without demanding substantial budget cuts would have been a tremendous mistake,” Barletta said in a statement after the vote. “We cannot follow the usual course of reckless overspending.

The people of the 11th District sent me to Washington to get our fiscal house in order, and raising the debt ceiling without making serious, substantial cuts in spending is irresponsible.” Marino said the “taxpayers of this country are the true bankers of this country. And the bankers denied this absurd request to raise the nation’s debt limit with-

out making deep spending cuts.” “It is difficult to imagine that anyone would even consider raising the debt ceiling at a time of record national debt and national deficit, and a high unemployment rate,” Marino said in a statement. Meanwhile, Sen. Bob Casey, DScranton, co-wrote a letter with Sen. Barbara Boxer, D-Calif., tell-

ing Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner that members of Congress should lose their pay if the federal government defaults on its financial obligations because lawmakers fail to increase the debt limit. House Republicans have blocked their bill seeking to put that into effect after the Senate approved it earlier this year,

Casey and Boxer said. “There is no reason that members of Congress and the president should be free from the pain that would be felt by our nation if the government were to default on its obligations, and if we cannot do our jobs and protect the full faith and credit of the United States, we should not get paid,” Casey and Boxer wrote.

we’re finally going to invoke fiscal discipline,” Rep. Steve Scalise, RLa., said Tuesday. Critics say the GOP is playing with fire as it muddies an issue being watched by financial markets worldwide. Democrats, many of whom joined Republicans in voting against the measure, called it “a

political stunt.” “This is about threatening to default on the full faith and credit of the United States unless we put in to place the Republican budget, including their plan to end the Medicare guarantee and to slash Medicare benefits,” said Rep. Chris Van Hollen, D-Md., the ranking Demo-

crat on the House Budget Committee. At his daily briefing, White House press secretary Jay Carney read from a letter Ronald Reagan sent in 1983 to the then-Senate Republican leader, warning that “the full consequences of a default, or eventheseriousprospectofdefault

by the United States, are impossible to predict and awesome to contemplate.” Congressional leaders and the administration are now in weekly meetings to reach an agreement on reforms before the Aug. 2 deadline to avoid a default. “We are committed to reducing

the deficit. That’s why we have moved so aggressively and seriously with these negotiations, why we’re encouraged by the fact that theyhaveproducedpositiveresults so far,” Carney said. Askedifthevotewasa“usefulexercise,” Carney replied succinctly: “It’s fine.”

Demolition crews discovered a body in the burned-out home on Sullivan Street in Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday morning. The coroner’s office removed two bodies from the fire scene. Neither victim has been identified, police said.

District Judge Martin Kane in Wilkes-Barre signed the search warrant at about 11:30 a.m. The second body was found when investigators resumed their search. Corcoran said toxicology tests will be performed on the two bodies, noting the possibility of autopsies. He did not provide details on the conditions of the bodies. “We can’t release information until we know more,” he said. “It’s difficult to tell. It’s possible homeless (people) sleeping in there which is known to be. You wouldn’t know they were in there because the fire was so destructive. There were no reports of anybody in there until the anonymous tip that there is a possibility that someone was in there.” Acting Assistant Fire Chief Frank McHenry said the house was fully involved when firefighters arrived at 1 a.m. Monday. Firefighters battled the blaze from the outside as conditions made it too dangerous to search the house during the fire. “If the anonymous caller knows the name, they don’t have to leave their name, but they can give us an identification that can help us,” Corcoran said.

Barletta also announced he has been named chairman of the new 112th Congress Immigration Reform Caucus – composed of freshman congress members – that is charged with addressing illegal immigration in the U.S.

Illegal immigration is a serious national security issue, he said, noting that five of the 19 September 11 terrorists were here illegally, staying in the U.S. after their visas expired. “A government study released just this month showed that almost half of all illegal immigrants in the United States entered the country legally, then remained here after their visas expired,” Barletta said. “We have 80-yearold grandmothers and 6-year-old children getting touched at airports in the name of national security, but we have mayors in this

But the radiation produced by cellphones cannot directly damage DNA and is different from stronger types of radiation like X-rays or ultraviolet light. At very high levels, radio frequency waves from cellphones can heat up body tissue, but that is not believed to damage human cells.

According to Cancer Research U.K., the only health danger firmly connected to cellphones is a higher risk of car accidents. The group recommends children under 16 use cellphones only for essential calls because their brains and nervous systems are still developing. Also, a recent U.S. National Institutes of Health study found that cellphone use can speed up brain activity, but it is unknown whether that has any dangerous health effects.

NBA FINALS

Wade, James come alive, put Heat up 1-0 By IRA WINDERMAN Sun Sentinel

MIAMI — After five grueling games against the Chicago Bulls in the Eastern Conference finals, the Miami Heat thought they were done with ground-and-pound basketball. Instead, these NBA Finals, even against the previously high-scoring Dallas Mavericks, well could prove to be more of the same.

Wyoming Seminary grad joins Dallas alum on 2011 USA Women’s National team. By JOE SOPRANO jsoprano@timesleader.com

Kat Sharkey has been working a long time just to hear her name called as a member of the 2011 USA Women’s National Field Hockey squad. The worked paid off this past week when the Wyoming Seminary grad was named by USA Field Hockey to the squad. “I’m so happy to have made the team,” the 2008 Seminary graduate said. “I’ve been striving for this Sharkey since I was in seventh grade. “I’m happy that all my hard work has finally paid off.” Sharkey, one of five players added to the 2011 USA Women’s National Field Hockey squad that USA Field Hockey announced, joins Paige Selenski, of Dallas, who was recently selected to the team. Sharkey earned her selection with a fine showing in the Women’sNationalChampionshipearlier in the month in Washington, D.C. One person not surprised that Sharkey joined Selenski on the team is her former coach at Wyoming Seminary, Karen Klassner. “I’m really excited for her,” said Klassner. “A lot of people felt she should have been on the team even before this.” Klassner added that Sharkey’s stick play and speed make her a dangerous player, but it’s her “nose for the goal” that makes her a really special player. That was evident at the tournament in D.C. where Sharkey had no problem finding the back of the net. “Sharkey being the leading goal scorer at the tournament proves that she can play at the senior level,” said USA Women’s National Team Head Coach Lee Bodimeade. Being on the team put Sharkey and Selenski in position to be selected for the 2012 Olympic team, whichwillcompeteintheLondon Games next year. The final Olympic team will be selected from the players on the national squad. Sharkey isn’t looking that far ahead, however. “I think the goal of every single girl on the National Team is to make the Olympic team,” Sharkey said. “But I’m just going to bring my best in training and be the best I can be every day.” Sharkey will enter her senior season at Princeton this fall See SHARKEY, Page 5B

DALLAS – At first glance, it would appear second-seeded Dallas had little trouble Tuesday with Coughlin, the lowest remaining seed in any of the four District 2 softball tournaments. Truth is, it wasn’t until the sixth inning when the Mountaineers knew they would be heading to their fourth consecutive D2 Class 3A championship game. RBI singles by Katy Comitz and Dez Roberts along with a two-run double by Kristan Baker allowed Dallas to pull away –

OPINION JOHN FEINSTEIN

Coach gone, but stench still lingers THERE ARE SO many issues connected to Ohio State football coach Jim Tressel’s “resignation” that it is difficult to know where to begin. Let’s start with this: Tressel resigned the way Richard Nixon resigned. Even with his hapless bosses, Ohio State President E. Gordon Gee and Athletic Director Gene Smith, trying to push back the growing wave of accusations, Tressel finally ran out of the nine lives given to a coach with a record of 106-22. What happened Monday is pretty easy to figure out: Ohio State goes before the NCAA infractions committee Aug. 12. To enter that hearing with Tressel still in place as football coach would have sent the following message to the committee: “We’re Ohio State. This coach wins most of the time and beats Michigan all the time. We don’t care that his program was apparently out of control or that he engaged in a cover-up of clear NCAA rules violations. We have some tickets here for our opener next month. Would one of you like to dot the ‘i’?” That probably wouldn’t play well in that room. That’s why Tressel had to go. Even so, there are still myriad questions surrounding the Ohio State football program. Exactly how widespread were the violations that ex-players are saying were commonplace? Exactly how long can Smith keep his job after declaring on Dec. 23 that the memorabiliafor- tattoos episode “an isolated incident”? Or, more specifically, why should he keep his job? As recently as two weeks ago, Smith insisted he supported Tressel. In March, when reports first surfaced that Tressel had covered up for players who should have been ineligible at the start of last season, Smith did a fly-by for a quickie news conference in Columbus, then raced back to serve his role as NCAA men’s basketball committee chairman. With his house was burning down, Smith came home just long enough to make sure the doors were locked. As for Gee, how can anyone connected to Ohio State want the bow-tied president around for even five more minutes? He already made a fool of himself with his whiny comments about non-BCS teams last fall (which, to his credit, he admitted were ridiculous after being blasted nationally ) and then, just to prove that bit of stupidity wasn’t a fluke, he made his incredible, “I’m just hopeful the coach doesn’t fire me,” wisecrack during that March news conference. Everyone needs to be fired at Ohio State — except maybe the band director. With Tressel packing up his office, Ohio State will argue that the person most responsible for the scandal is gone, and, thus, the NCAA need not come down as hard on the Buckeyes’ football program as it did on Southern California. It’s a nice thought, but Tressel’s absence shouldn’t influence the committee at all. USC is not the precedent here. The precedent should be a 21-year-old case that involved Maryland basketball under the regime of Bob Wade. If you go back and study the case, the violations Maryland was accused of were not as serious or as widespread as those in the Ohio State case. Wade had been fired, but Maryland got nailed with a one-year television ban and a two-year postseason ban because Wade had lied to NCAA investigators. Tressel also lied, not only to investigators but to his bosses, See FEINSTEIN , Page 5B

DeMocko, Obeid claim Ladies Classic By ALISON MAJIKES For The Times Leader

HANOVER TWP. – The threat of 90 degree temperatures couldn’t keep the women of the Wyoming Valley Country Club from playing in the 2011 Ladies Classic tournament on Tuesday. Five hours and 18 holes after the shotgun start, the ladies started heading back into the clubhouse with Barbra DeMocko and Cassie Obeid combining to shoot a 67 on the day. Neither of them had a strategy when they stepped up to the first tee and they both agreed that heat wasn’t a factor at any point throughout the day. “Complaining about the sun would be really hypocritical of me since all I’ve been doing is complaining about the rain,” said DeMocko. Both players added that while the heat wasn’t stunting their skills, they did make it a point to stay in the shade as much as possible and stay hydrated throughout the day. “We just came to have fun,” DeMocko

Yanks bang out 17 hits in win over Indianapolis By PETE CAVA For the Times Leader

INDIANAPOLIS – Scoring five runs in the first inning, the visiting Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees mounted a 17-hit onslaught and coasted to a10-3 win Tuesday night over the Indianapolis Indians. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre picked up a game on Lehigh Valley, which lost to Gwinnett. The Yankees now trail the International League North-leading IronPigs by three contests. Designated hitter Jordan Parraz, activated from the disabled list earlier in the day, sparked the victors with four hits, including a double,

and four runs batted in. Catcher Jesus Montero added a triple, a homer and three RBI. “I got some good pitches to hit,” said Parraz. “I was trying to put the ball in play, and good things happen, I guess, when you do that.” Parraz said he knew last week that he would be in the lineup. “Probably about five days ago, I knew I was going to play Tuesday,” he said. “So I was anticipating that, and then it all worked out, so I was happy. The season’s still young and Idefinitelyhavealotmoretoprove. I’m just trying to go out there, have some good at-bats, and see what happens.”

WASHINGTON — Danny Espinosa hit a pair of homers and drove in four runs to lead the Washington Nationals to a 10-2 win over the Philadelphia Phillies on Tuesday night. Espinosa hit a three-run shot to cap the Nationals’ five-run third inning, and added another solo blast in the sixth, his 10th of the season. It was the second multihomer game of his career. He also hit two against the New York Mets on Sept. 6, 2010. Pirates 5, Mets 1

The road overall has been a bad place for Milwaukee this season — the Brewers are 9-18 away from home. ATLANTA — Ryan Ludwick had an RBI single in the three-run seventh, Heath Bell struggled to earn a fourth straight save and the San Diego Padres beat the Atlanta Braves for their season-high fourth consecutive victory. CHICAGO — Cubs closer Carlos Marmol blew his third save of the season, allowing six runs in the ninth inning as the Houston Astros beat Chicago 7-3 on Tuesday night. Robinson Cancel’s pinch-hit, two-run double tied the game and Michael Bourn singled in the go-ahead run off Marmol (1-2). Hunter Pence added a three-run shot for the Astros.

AMERICAN LEAGUE ROUNDUP

Longoria’s homer lifts Rays over Rangers ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Evan Longoria hit a go-ahead two-run homer in the eighth inning and the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Texas Rangers 5-4 on Tuesday night. With the Rays trailing by a run, Longoria gave Tampa Bay the lead with his two-out drive off Arthur Rhodes (3-3) after Johnny Damon reached on an opposite-field bloop single to left that deflected off the glove of shortstop Elvis Andrus. Longoria was back hitting fourth after three games as the leadoff man, a move designed to help him work out of an offensive funk. White Sox 10, Red Sox 7

BOSTON — Alexei Ramirez tied his career high with four hits, and Philip Humber stymied Boston for seven innings to lead the Chicago White Sox to a victory over the Red Sox. It was Chicago’s sixth straight win at Fenway Park, its longest streak here since the “Go Go” Sox era of 1958-59.

DETROIT — Brennan Boesch broke an eighth-inning tie with a sacrifice fly, and the Detroit Tigers went on to beat the Minnesota Twins. After Danny Worth led off the bottom of the eighth with a single, Austin Jackson tried to bunt him to second. Reliever Phil Dumatrait (0-1) tried to get the force play but threw late and wildly to second. Casper Wells then bunted the runners to second and third before Boesch hit a fly ball to right.

Kevin Russo followed with a walk.DanBrewer,theninthmanto come to the plate, dumped a single to right that brought in Parraz for a 5-0 advantage. Indianapolis avoided further damage when Brewer was out trying for second. Silva, along with fellow veterans Bartolo Colon, Freddy Garcia, Mark Prior and Kevin Millwood, signed with New York in the wake

of free agent Cliff Lee’s decision to signwiththePhilliesandAndyPettitte’s retirement. Colon, 38, and the 34-year-old Garcia are currently in New York’s starting rotation. Millwood, 36, and Prior, 30, both started the year with Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, but Millwood was released on May 2 and Prior is on SWB’s disabled list. The 32-year-old Silva, a nineyear veteran, was cut loose this spring by the by the Chicago Cubs, his fourth big league team. He was making his third start for Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after signing a minor league contract with New York on April 9.

Silva got off to a rocky start when Indianapolis leadoff hitter Shelby Ford drilled his second pitch of the night over the right field wall. Manager Dave Miley said he was satisfied with Silva’s outing. “They’ve got a good-hitting ballclub over there,” said Miley. “He knows how to pitch, obviously. Silva and the bullpen did a nice job” Miley was also pleased with the first-inning fireworks and his team’s defense. “Jumping out to five runs off their guy was huge,” he said. “We jumped on a pretty good pitcher early, and we got some double-play balls when we needed.”

NEW YORK — Neil Walker hit a two-run single in the eighth inning off a game and gritty R.A. Dickey to help the Pittsburgh Pirates rally past the New York Mets. Josh Harrison stroked a tying single with two outs in the eighth to cap a successful major league debut and Pittsburgh got another fine outing from a starting pitcher. This time it was James McDonald, who gave up his only run on an infield dribbler.

The Associated Press

Carlos Silva, the parent New York Yankees’ latest reclamation project, got the win. The burly Venezuelan right-hander upped his record to 2-0, allowing seven hits and no walks over six innings while striking out a batter. The last notes of the Star Spangled Banner were still echoing through Victory Field when the Yanks went to work on Indians starter Rudy Owens (4-4). Austin Krum opened the game with a double off the wall in rightcenter. Ramiro Pena bunted for a hit to put runners at the corners, and Montero knocked in a pair of runs with his first three-base hit of

run with a base hit as Dallas jumped to a 5-0 lead after one inning. “It was tough,” Coughlin firstyear coach Alice Lyons said, “but one thing these girls have done all year is they have battled back. Our regular-season record of 4-11 hasn’t really reflected that. We started late as coaches; we weren’t hired until late. We didn’t get hired until about two weeks before the regular practice season. So for us to start peaking toward the end of the season was a big positive.” Coughlin came back in the top of the second to move within 5-2. Cara Answini and Marissa Ross hit consecutive one-out singles and both scored on Kendra Hayward’s two-out single. But the Crusaders stranded two runners that inning and two more in the third. Three of them were in scoring position. Dallas pushed its advantage to 6-2 in the fourth when Comitz singled, moved to second on a fielder’s choice and scored on an error during her steal of third. Comitz and Roberts provided plenty of offense from their seventh and eighth batting slots. Comitz was 3-for-3 with three RBI and three runs scored. Roberts was 2-for-3 with three RBI. Taylor Kelley, the ninth hitter, also singled as Dallas got six of its eight hits from the final three positions. “It seems like if the top isn’t coming through, the bottom is coming through,” Tinner said. “It’s a credit to the kids. One through nine we’re pretty strong.” Baker threw a solid game once she got out of a one-out jam in the third with Coughlin runners on first and second. She retired 12 of the next 13 batters until walking Hayward with one out in the seventh. Hayward later scored on the front end of the failed double steal.

Lindsay Roberts of Nanticoke bunts to advance a runner during Tuesday’s District Class 2A semifinal game against Riverside.

Trojanettes advance to finals By MATT PAGE For the Times Leader

NANTICOKE – The expectations are obvious. Nanticoke Area, the defending District 2 Class 2A champion, is expected to repeat for the district title and make yet another state title run. Those expectations start with head coach Gary Williams who expects success but knows it is not guaranteed. “I have high expectations,” Williams said. “I think we’re as good of a team as we’ve had at Nanticoke and we’ve had success before. That doesn’t mean we’re guaranteed success.” The Trojanettes, however, are one step closer to achieving those expectations after Sarah Bertoni allowed no runs and only three hits in six innings of work while driving in two runs in a 6-1 semifinal victory over Riverside on Tuesday in Nanticoke. “She kept them off balance and kept them off base for the most part,” said Williams. “They’re a good team and just to

hold them to one run is a mark of how good our defense is.” After two scoreless innings, the Trojanette offense scored four runs to break the tie in the bottom of the third. Sammy Gow led off the inning with a double before Bertoni hit a bloop single to drive her in for the first run of the game. Then Maggie Gola singled and Kayla Benjamin was hit by a pitch to load the bases. Katie Wolfe then blasted a bases clearing double giving Nanticoke Area a 4-0 lead. “Katie is a good hitter, she is hitting close to .500 for the year,” Williams said. “I mean as soon as she hit that ball I felt pretty confident about how the game was going to go from that point on.” With a four-run lead, Bertoni took over, allowing only one hit after the third inning before being relieved by Hannah Rubasky to start the seventh. The Trojanettes tacked on two more runs on a Angela Hillian RBI in the fourth and a Bertoni RBI in the sixth bumping the score to 6-0. Riverside was able to avoid

the shutout when Cassie Schuster drove in a run in the top of the seventh but a pop out to Kayley Schinski sent the Trojanettes on to the next round. Nanticoke Area will advance to the District 2 Class 2A final for the third time in the past four years, where they will take on Elk Lake – a rematch of the 2010 final.

ARCHBALD – When the season opened, Gina Chieffallo was just one of the pitchers Valley View coach E.J. Weston was considering turning to while trying to repeat as District 2 Class 3A softball champion. As Chieffallo’s control stabilized, the sophomore became one of the leaders of a veteran team that went unbeaten while winning the Lackawanna League Division 2 title. By the time Berwick got its first look at Chieffallo, the righthander’s control was so precise that the Bulldogs had trouble even putting the ball in play. Chieffallo threw a one-hitter and walked two while striking out a season-high 18 Tuesday afternoon to lead Valley View to a 6-1 victory in the district semifinals. “I knew she was a good pitcher,” Berwick coach Brian Bridge said. “She has good movement. We couldn’t seem to see it.” Chieffallo commanded the inside corner of the plate in particular, getting five strikeouts looking on the corner with control that even surprised her. “I was really on today,” Chieffalo said after pitching her second straight playoff one-hitter. “I’m not usually close to that sharp with my control.” Chieffallo said once she knew she was getting calls on the corner with Berwick batters crowding the plate, she kept trying to sneak her fastball an inch or so more inside the next time. “He was calling that pitch there all day,” Bridge said. “It’s a tough pitch to hit. “She was effective with it and threw it at the right time. It was a very good pitch choice.” Chieffalo struck out seven straight early in the game, then responded to allowing her only hit by striking out five more in a row. Courtney Shields, who reached on a walk a hit and an error, singled to right-center field with one out in the fourth and Ber-

wick trailing just 2-0. Shields reached second on a wild pitch, but Chieffalo used strikeouts to escape trouble. Valley View opened a 4-0 lead before Berwick got its only run in the sixth. Bri Winter reached on a oneout walk and took second on a wild pitch. A groundball by Shields led to a wide throw that could not be handled and Winter came in to score. Jacqui Rossi led the Valley View offense with singles in her first three at-bats and drove in three of the team’s first four runs. Liz Aniska and Gaby Santarelli each scored twice in the top two spots in the order. Santarelli finished with a single, double and an RBI. Valley View (16-0) advances into Thursday championship game rematch with Dallas, a 10-3 winner over Coughlin. The Cougars won last year’s final, 11-1. Berwick finished 11-6 with a team that featured five freshmen and one sophomore starter. Valley View 6, Berwick 1 Berwick

DISTRICT 2 BASEBALL

Healey’s walk-off propels Tigers By PAUL SOKOLOSKI psokoloski@timesleader.com

TUNKHANNOCK — Once before in his life, Mike Healey rescued a game by belting a ball over the wall. This time, he saved Tunkhannock’s season. Healey’s booming two-out, two-run home run in the bottom of the seventh inning Tuesday lifted Tunkhannock over Abington Heights, 5-4 and into the District 2 Class 3A title game. “An amazing feeling,” Healey called his walk-off, game-winning blast. “I don’t think it sunk in yet. It’s so, so exciting.” The excitement for the Tigers began in their final at-bat. They were trailing 4-2 in the semifinal matchup when Jeremy Lee began the winning rally with his third hit in as many at-bats – a hard double to left-center field. Lee eventually scored on the inning’s second out, an RBI grounder that edged Tunkhannock within 4-3. That brought up dangerous Mike Papi, Tunkhannock’s No. 3 hitter and a University of Virginia recruit who’s grown accustomed to pitchers avoiding him. At one point midway through the season, Papi had as many walks as he had official at-bats. So it wasn’t shocking when Papi, the potential tying run, drew a walk on five pitches in the bottom of the seventh Tuesday. “I had some good discipline at the plate,” Papi said. “I knew I had a good batter behind me. We

needed two to win. I’m a guy who goes for the win.” Then Healey went for the fences. The senior, headed to the University of Connecticut, launched the first pitch he saw in the bottom of the seventh about 30 feet over the left field wall, setting off bedlam through the delighted Tunkhannock High School stands. “I knew the situation,” Healey said. “I wasn’t thinking single.” But he couldn’t have imagined this scenario. Healey had to go back a few years to remember the last time he won a game with a homer. “I hit one in Little League,” Healey said. Tuesday’s shot seemed to hit a special place in Tunkhannock’s heart. It sent the 15-2 Tigers into the District 2 title game against West Scranton at 7:30 p.m. Thursday at PNC Field – pushed back from 7 p.m. “That ball was crushed,” Tunkhannock coach Gary Custer said. “I was hoping and praying to God it stayed fair. “Right guy in the right spot right there.” Hitting behind Papi, Healey has put up some monster numbers through his senior season, accumulating 33 RBI and home runs in 14 regular season games. He has two more homers in the postseason and is batting .500 (4for-8) through his three playoff games. “I had to step up in that spot,”

Healey said. “If they pitch around him (Papi), you have to have a guy who’s going to step up.” “Healey’s clutch,” Papi said. “I wouldn’t want to have the bat in anyone else’s hands but his. I’m happy for him.” For the longest time, it appeared the Tigers were headed for a sad trip home. Tunkhannock’s Ty Saylor tied the game with a solo homer in the first inning, but Abington Heights broke a 2-2 deadlock when Derek Kraack cracked a homer in the fourth inning and Jeff Roba scored on a fielder’s choice as the Comets grabbed a 4-2 lead. It stayed that way until the seventh, although Papi tried his best to give Tunkhannock the lead with two men aboard by belting a deep, opposite-field drive that District 2 Class 3A semifinal Tunkhannock 5, Abington Heights 4 Abington Heights Tunkhannock ab r h bi ab r h bi Elwell p 4 1 1 1 KCuster cf 3 0 0 0 Umerich 2b 3 0 0 0 Saylor 1b 4 1 1 2 Badamo c 3 0 1 1 Papi ss 3 1 2 0 Pisanchyn 1b 3 0 0 0 Healey p-3b 4 1 2 2 Kraack lf 2 1 1 1 Zaner 2b 0 0 0 0 Pasqlchio cf 3 0 0 0 Cndeelis dh 3 0 1 0 Roba rf 2 1 1 0 WCuster c 3 0 1 0 Slocum rf 0 0 0 0 McClain 3b 1 0 0 0 Klien 3b 3 0 1 1 Reeves p 1 0 0 0 Klingman ss 1 1 1 0 Knott p 1 0 0 0 Goodwin lf 3 1 1 0 Lee rf 3 1 3 0 Totals 24 4 6 4 Totals 29 5 11 4 Abington Heights .................... 101 200 0 — 4 Tunkhannock........................... 110 000 3 — 5 2B – Badamo, Goodwin, Lee; 3B – Klingman; HR – Kraack, Saylor, Healey IP H R ER BB SO Abington Heights Elwell (L) ................... 6.2 11 5 4 1 2 Tunkhannock Healey ....................... 3.0 2 2 2 2 0 Reeves ...................... 2.0 4 2 2 0 0 Knott (W, 1-0)........... 2.0 0 0 0 0 1

Pitching leads Royals into final By JAY MONAHAN For The Times Leader

WILKES-BARRE — In most cases, allowing eight runners to reach base in the first two innings is a recipe for a long day for any high school pitching staff. On Tuesday, early pitching struggles – five hits, three walks – were no indication for how the Holy Redeemer pitching staff would finish the District 2 Class 2A semifinal. Christian Choman and Pat Condo did not allow a hit through the final five innings to catapult Holy Redeemer to its second consecutive district championship appearance with a 5-3 victory over Dunmore. The seventh-seeded Royals (11-7) will face top-seeded LakeLehman in Thursday’s title game at PNC Field at 4:30 p.m. The Black Knights took down Hanover Area 8-3 in the other 2A semifinal. Choman needed a seasonhigh 105 pitches through five innings to tame the 11th-seeded Bucks. The junior pitcher struck out six while allowing five hits. Junior Pat Condo notched the save by striking out three in two innings of hitless work. “There were a couple of big innings that (Choman) dug deep,” Holy Redeemer coach Chris Ritsick said. “He threw 100-some pitches today in 90 degree weather. He emptied everything he had, and I give him a lot of credit. “Then Pat came in. He’s been

“They battled, got through innings and shut them down. That’s discouraging for the other team when they get nothing out of a big inning.” Holy Redeemer coach Chris Ritsick on his pitchers’ performances

clutch for us all season.” Dunmore (8-9) struggled to take advantage with runners on base, stranding nine on the afternoon. In the first inning, Choman struck out two consecutive batters to silence the Bucks, who loaded the bases with one out. An inning later, after tallying its only three runs on a pair of doubles by Kyle Giumento and Jack Loftus, Dunmore stranded two batters. Dunmore was presented with its only other scoring opportunity in the fourth. The Bucks had a runner picked off at second base and later left two aboard. “(Our pitchers) put a lot of guys on, drew walks,” Ritsick said. “But they battled, got through innings and shut them down. That’s discouraging for the other team when they get nothing out of a big inning.” The Royals matched the Bucks’ three runs in the second inning with run-scoring singles by 8-9 hitters Dan Byorick (1-2, run) and Adam Dunsmuir. Like they had all season, the

Royals went ahead for good in the third with two home runs. Choman pulled a hanging inside curveball over Hollenback Park’s short fence and, two batters later, Eric Ringsdorf (2-3, two runs) launched a deep homer over the centerfield wall. “We certainly have some power hitters on the team,” Ritsick said. “You have to coach for what you have. We have some players that are perfectly made for this park, and they take advantage of it.” District 2 Class 2A semifinal Holy Redeemer 5, Dunmore 3 Dunmore Holy Redeemer ab r h bi ab r h bi DeMarco 2b 2 1 1 0 Malloy cf 2 0 0 0 Giumento p 3 1 2 2 Policare 2b 1 0 0 1 Loftus c 3 0 1 1 Ruch 3b 2 0 0 0 Terrery 1b 1 0 0 0 Chmn p-1b 3 1 1 1 Scalzo ph 1 0 0 0 Ritsick 1b 2 1 0 0 Best rf 4 0 0 0 Condo p 0 0 0 0 Perry 3b 2 0 0 0 Peterlin c 0 0 0 0 Klatt cf 3 0 1 0 Ringsdrf dh 3 2 2 1 Swinick lf 2 0 0 0 Tsevdos lf 2 0 0 0 Lopatko ss 3 1 0 0 Trimblett ph 1 0 0 0 Byorick rf 2 1 1 1 Dunsmr ss 3 0 1 1 Totals 24 3 5 3 Totals 21 5 5 5 Dunmore ................................ 030 000 0 — 3 Holy Redeemer..................... 032 000 x — 5 2B – Giumento, Loftus; HR – Ringsdorf, Choman IP H R ER BB SO Dunmore Giumento (L) ........... 6.0 5 5 5 5 7 Holy Redeemer Choman (W, 2-0) .... 5.0 5 3 3 4 6 Condo (S)................. 2.0 0 0 0 1 3

who then proceeded to defend him at every turn until they ran out of options. His absence should not affect the committee’s decision. We will also hear the timeworn argument that Ohio State isn’t any different than most big-time athletic programs. That is almost certainly true even though it doesn’t make Ohio State any less guilty. Schools willingly sell their souls — and buy their players in one form or another — in the name of winning and making money. Ask the reigning men’s basketball national champions, who are on probation and will begin conference play without their Hall of Fame coach while he serves a suspension. Some have speculated that if Ohio State and other big-time programs get nailed by the infractions committee in the coming years, the six BCS

conferences and a few other power programs may break away and form their own super division that won’t have an encyclopedia-thick rule book. Pay the players, don’t worry about whether anyone graduates and count the cash as it rolls in. That’s what should happen. Ninety-nine percent of the fans who attend college football and basketball games couldn’t care less if their players are being paid, whether they’re going to class, whether they’re selling memorabilia, receiving free tattoos or being ‘sold,’ cars for $100 down and pay the rest in touchdowns later. They want their teams to win; they want to have their tailgates; and they want to be entertained. Period. So why not abandon the charade?

banished. One of the names instantly mentioned as a possible replacement was Urban Meyer, who won two national championships at Florida. Like Tressel, Meyer is clearly a great football coach. Also, 27 players of his players were arrested on 30 occasions over six years. When the 30th arrest occurred last September Meyer declared that he was “real upset” about it. He left Florida last December as an iconic figure. And why not? A big-time college coach has one job: win games. Let’s be clear about this: Jim Tressel didn’t “resign” because his players broke rules or because he lied or covered up those violations. He “resigned” for one reason: He got caught. That’s the way it works in big-time college athletics. The sooner we all stop kidding ourselves about that, the better.

The truest shooting stroke of the night was offered from distance by James, who converted three third-quarter 3-pointers on asmanyattemptsonthewayto24 points. Ultimately, a gritty game required a gritty performance by a gritty performer. Heat forward Udonis Haslem, having gone 2{ games without a basket, came through on that front, with seven points and six rebounds. A 3-point play by Haslem with 6:36 to play staked the Heat to a 76-69 lead. Wade, who singlehandedly lifted the Heat to the 2006 championship over the Mavericks by averaging 34.7 points, then converted a jumper for a 7770 Heat lead. Wade later buried a 3-pointer with 3:06 to play for an 82-73 Heat lead. A driving dunk by James followed, effectively ending it. With Wade finding his offense after a sluggish first half, with eight third-period points, the Heat moved to a 65-61 lead entering the fourth quarter.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Investigation of Pryor begins By RUSTY MILLER AP Sports Writer

COLUMBUS, Ohio — A day after coach Jim Tressel’s forced resignation for lying about Ohio State players receiving improper benefits, the focus has shifted to the investigation of star quarterback Terrelle Pryor and his succession of used cars. The salesman who put Pryor behind the wheel of several vehicles said in a sworn affidavit released by Ohio State on Tuesday that he didn’t offer any special deals to Buckeyes. “The deals that I did for Ohio State student-athletes were no different than any of the other 10,000-plus deals that I’ve done for all my other customers,” Aaron Kniffin said in the statement. Tressel’s10-year reign as coach

beat twice (in the regular season), then seeing them in the semifinals. They had both their pitchers ready to go (like Meyers did). “But in the end today, we knew we were the better team.” And now the top-seeded Knights (17-1) will go for their first district title since 2007 when they face Holy Redeemer at 4:30 p.m. Thursday at PNC Field in Moosic. The Royals defeated Dunmore 5-3 in the other 2A semifinal to advance to their second straight D2 championship game. The No. 4 Hawkeyes finished the season at12-5 after knocking off Holy Cross and Riverside to reach the district semifinals for the first time in recent history. “We definitely thought we could beat them,” Hanover Area coach Mike Zapotoski said. “These kids played hard the whole year. No one gave them a shot at being here with all the people we lost from last year. And this is the furthest we’ve made it in I think 20 years – no one put us here in this game at the beginning of the year. “So I’m proud of the way the kids fought.” They started off well enough, taking a 1-0 lead and loading the bases their first time up. But the Hawks grounded one to third for a double play to end the inning. “That was so huge,” LeValley said. “They would have had all the momentum going (for the game). That easily could have been a three, four, five-run inning.” Lake-Lehman answered back with two quick runs in the bottom of the frame, which culminated in some controversy. Bryan Mathers knocked in Josh Everett (2-3, home run, 2 RBI) with a single to tie the game. Tyler McGovern (2-3, 2 doubles, 3 RBI) then launched a double that he tried to stretch into a triple as another run came home. The throw came to the bag well in time, but the tag was disputed as no umpire was at third at the time and no signal appeared to have been made. Hanover Area argued as McGovern stayed put at third, prompting the officiating crew to convene and ultimately rule an out on the play. LeValley stormed from the coaching box, shouting his case. After a few minutes of debate, LeValley was “restricted to the dugout” by the umpires, he said, for the rest of the game as an assistant took his spot behind third. “I was a nervous Nellie, pacing around,” LeValley said. “It was different. Wasn’t fun. Wasn’t fun. A little stressful.” But it did seem to fire up the Knights. Lehman came through with five runs in the home half to take a commanding 7-1 lead, forcing the Hawks to head to their bullpen. “I think the kids were a little pumped up after what happened with that disputed call at third base,” LeValley said. “I certainly got that feeling from them.” Sophomore Mickey Ferrence

of the Buckeyes ended in disgrace Monday as he was forced to step down for breaking NCAA rules. Pryor He knew players received cash and tattoos for autographs, championship rings and equipment and did not tell anyone at Ohio State or the NCAA what he knew for more than nine months. NCAA rules — and Tressel’s contract — specify that he must disclose any and all information about possible violations. Pryor, the highest profile recruit of Tressel’s 25-year coaching career, is one of five Buckeyes who have already been suspend-

ed for the first five games of the 2011 season for taking money and tattoos from local tattoo-parlor owner Edward Rife, who pleaded guilty last week to federal drug trafficking and moneylaundering charges. Ohio State confirmed that the NCAA continues to look into potential violations. “I can tell you that obviously you have an open investigation,” Ohio State spokesman Jim Lynch said Tuesday. “The university and the NCAA are working jointly to review any new allegations that come to light. We’re going to continue to do so until their investigation wraps up.” The Columbus Dispatch has reported that the NCAA and Ohio State are investigating more than 50 vehicle purchases

by Buckeyes players, family members and friends over the past. Sports Illustrated, citing a source close to the investigation, reported that Pryor, who will be a senior this fall, might have driven as many as eight cars in his three years in Columbus. Even though Pryor’s vehicles have been a focal point of the investigation for weeks, that doesn’t mean he has been riding a bicycle around the city. Pryor drove up to a players-only team meeting on Monday night in a coal-black Nissan 350Z sports car with 30-day plates. The automotive information site Edmunds.com lists a recent, used 350Z, which it calls “a proper sports car for the everyman,” as costing between $16,000 and $27,000.

Redeemer advances to PIAA elite eight By RYAN KONOPKI For The Times Leader

LEHMAN TWP. – After his team won the first two games in its PIAA Class 2A first-round matchup with Masterman, Holy Redeemer coach Jack Kablick could tell his squad was more focused about a possible trip to Penn State University, home of the PIAA volleyball championships, rather than its third game with the Blue Devils. “In between the second and third game, everyone was talking about Penn State already, like its over,” Kablick. “I thought we won the first two games too easily and it showed. We played a sloppy [third] game.” The District 2 champion Royals swept Masterman with scores of 25-19, 25-14 and 25-20, but the Royals struggled in the third game. With the win, Holy Redeemer is assured one of the final eight spots for the Class 2A championship at the Multi-Sport Indoor Facility. Pool play begins Friday, with two from each pool advancing to Saturday’s semifinals, followed by the finals. But before the Royals could pack their bags for University Park, they needed to rally back in the third frame after trailing by as many as eight points and giving up 11 of the Blue Devils’ first 16 points. After calling a timeout down 11-5, Kablick told his team to do what they do naturally and come out with a better mindset. His team listened, but it took a 17-9 deficit until it responded. With the Blue Devils’ lead trimmed to 18-13, Holy Redeemer scored five unanswered points to tie the game. Masterman took a one-point lead, but the Royals countered

with another five unanswered points to go up 24-19. Holy Redeemer finished the match on a 14-3 run. Rob Wingert had a big day for the Royals, racking up 27 assists, 12 kills, five service points, four blocks and two digs. He consistently found teammates attacking the net, like John McCarthy, who had 18 kills on the day. “Our back row, as a group, started to hit the passes we needed,” said Kablick. “We’re a quick running team, and you need a great pass to run the quick sets. They finally started getting focused. It was a huge turning point.” Senior Pete Alexis finished the game with 13 kills, eight service points, two aces and one block, but said he and his teammates learned a lesson in not getting ahead of themselves. “I think we got a little too overconfident,” said Alexis, who will attend Penn State in the fall to play basketball. “We weren’t focused on the last game to end the match.” With three days until the trip to Penn State, Kablick did not address his team as to where it stands heading into quarterfinal play after the game. “We wanted to be one of the final eight teams to be practicing tomorrow,” he said. “That was our goal. We didn’t want to be one of the teams that has to hand in their uniforms.” Bethlehem Catholic 3, Coughlin 0 The Crusaders were eliminated from the PIAA Class 2A Championships after losing to Catholic 25-12, 25-15, 25-18. Michael Shmakov paced Coughlin with 11 kills, while Justin Coskey added eight kills.

Federer to face unbeaten Djokovic

Championship drought will end for one team

PARIS — A look at the French Open on Tuesday: Weather: Cloudy and windy. High of 64 degrees. Attendance: 25,846. Men’s Quarterfinal Result: No. 3 Roger Federer beat No. 9 Gael Monfils 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (3). Men’s Fourth-Round Result: No. 4 Andy Murray beat No. 15 Viktor Troicki 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 7-5. Women’s Quarterfinal Results: No. 5 Francesca Schiavone beat No. 14 Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 1-6, 7-5, 7-5; No. 11 Marion Bartoli beat No. 13 Svetlana Kuznetsova 7-6 (4), 6-4. Stat of the Day: 0 — Sets lost by Federer of the 15 he’s played through the first five rounds. He’s the only man who hasn’t dropped a set. Quote of the Day: “I was told to stay off my feet totally.” — Murray after overcoming a torn tendon in his right ankle to beat Troicki. On Court Wednesday: No. 1 Rafael Nadal vs. No. 5 Robin Soderling, No. 4 Andy Murray vs. Juan Ignacio Chela; No. 4 Victoria Azarenka vs. No. 6 Li Na, No. 7 Maria Sharapova vs. No. 15 Andrea Petkovic.

He pushed one easy forehand into the net and flubbed a gimme volley. He double-faulted twice in one game while getting broken at love en route to trailing 3-1. “It was not just playing against Gael,” Federer said. “It was playing against the conditions.” It didn’t take long to figure things out, though. Federer broke Monfils to make it 3-all with a half-volley drop winner, then again to end the first set by smacking a return of a 128 mph serve so well that a startled Monfils missed a forehand. Recalling that he beat Federer the last time they played, Monfils said, “I told myself, ’Why not?’ But today he was stronger than me.” No one in this French Open has tested Federer, whose streak of 23 consecutive Grand Slam semifinals ended in Paris 12

months ago. That was followed by a quarterfinal exit at Wimbledon, too, hastening talk of Federer’s demise. After getting an up-close look at Federer, Monfils was urged to predict the outcome of the Swiss star’s next match. “I don’t know who’s going to win. But as usual, Roger ... is still right there. He has still a lot of desire,” Monfils said. “I’ll be the first to watch that semi.” Federer has won only one title this season — six fewer than Djokovic — and is seeded No. 3 in Paris, the first time he hasn’t been No. 1 or 2 at a Grand Slam tournament since 2004. Instead, five-time French Open champion Rafael Nadal, who faces two-time runner-up and fifthseeded Robin Soderling in the quarterfinals Wednesday, is seeded No. 1, and Djokovic is No. 2. Wednesday’s other men’s quarterfinal is No. 4 Andy Murray against unseeded Juan Ignacio Chela of Argentina. Playing with a torn tendon in his right ankle, Murray won the last five games to finish off a 4-6, 4-6, 6-3, 6-2, 7-5 comeback victory over No. 15 Viktor Troicki of Serbia in a fourth-round match suspended Monday night because of dark-

ness. “I’ve done a lot icing. Taking a lot pills,” said Murray, who’s won eight of his last nine five-set matches. “I was given crutches, which I didn’t use, because I didn’t know how to.” There was an odd scene at 3-2 in the fifth set, when a ball boy — apparently believing there was a break in action — ran on the court during a point, while Troicki was lining up an overhead smash. Troicki hit the winner, but the chair umpired ordered the point replayed. “Kid just jumped in and messed up my point,” Troicki said afterward, noting that he’d never seen that happen before, in person or on TV. Murray won the do-over, but Troicki actually broke serve to take the game. Eventually, Murray took the match, making this French Open the first Grand Slam tournament since Wimbledon in 1989 with the top five seeded men all in the quarterfinals. That sort of orderliness has been completely absent from the women’s draw, where none of the top three reached the quarterfinals. But both of Tuesday’s matches were won by the higherseeded woman.

realize they haven’t done anything until they raise the Cup. “With the parity that is in the league, you’ve got to do a lot of things right for a long time,” Canucks coach Alain Vigneault said. “I do believe you’ve got to get some bounces, you get the bounces because you’ve been doing things right for a long time. I believe that Vancouver is due for 40 years of good bounces.” The Bruins have lost five straight trips to the finals since Bobby Orr led them to their last title in 1972, and haven’t made it at all since 1990. Yet with only moderate expectations and a largely star-free roster featuring no scorers in the NHL’s top 25, Boston survived a rough Eastern Conference run during which it faced elimination twice in the past three rounds. The Bruins coolly won two Game 7 showdowns, both on clutch goals by Nathan Horton, earning the right to travel thousands of miles to the opposite coast for a shot at their ultimate goal. “We definitely earned the right to be here with everything we’ve gone through,” Horton said Tuesday after the Bruins’ first practice in Vancouver. “I had never even been in the playoffs before, so maybe I don’t know any better. I’m getting some real goosebumps now, though.”

VANCOUVER, British Columbia — Daniel Sedin absently scratched his red playoff beard, thinking back on a decade of struggle and setbacks before the Vancouver Canucks reached the Stanley Cup finals against Boston. Down the hallway, his identical twin rubbed his identical beard exactly the same way. Henrik Sedin was considering a more pressing problem, though: Now that the Swedish superstars are finally close enough to touch the Stanley Cup, how do they get it away from hulking defenseman Zdeno Chara and the bruising Bruins? “We’ve had a lot of challenges along the way to get here, but he’s the biggest one yet — literally, I guess,” said Henrik Sedin, last season’s NHL MVP. “It’s going to be exciting to see what happens, because we haven’t played each other enough to know those guys very well. It’s unpredictable.” The only sure bet is that one championship drought will end for one long-suffering hockeyloving city after the Canucks face Boston in the Stanley Cup finals, starting in Game 1 tonight in Vancouver. The Canucks have never won it all, falling in their only two previous finals appearances in four decades of existence. Their ever-anxious city is buzzing with anticipation, with hundreds of fans filling the sidewalks and bars of Granville Street in blueand-green jerseys in the days before the finals. They’re breathlessly following the Sedin twins, who finally turned their talent into team success during a spectacular season in Vancouver. With impressive depth and solid defense backing their star-studded top lines, the Canucks won the Presidents’ Trophy with 54 victories and 117 points before winning nine of their past 12 playoff games heading into the finals. The Canucks might be the best team ever assembled on Canada’s West Coast, yet they

PARIS — Quickly and rather quietly, Roger Federer is back in the French Open semifinals. There will be absolutely nothing low-key — or, it seems safe to say, easy — about what comes next for the 16-time Grand Slam champion: a showdown against Novak Djokovic, who is 41-0 this year and unbeaten in his last 43 matches overall. With attention focused elsewhere, perhaps in part because some assume his best days are behind him, the no-fuss, nomuss Federer simply has won all 15 sets he’s played so far, capped Tuesday by a 6-4, 6-3, 7-6 (3) quarterfinal victory over No. 9seeded Gael Monfils of France. “For me, the plan is trying to get a step further and into the finals of the French Open,” said Federer, who won the 2009 title at Roland Garros to complete a career Grand Slam but lost in the quarterfinals a year ago. “At the end of the day, that’s, for me, the big picture, and that’s why I entered the French Open. It wasn’t to stop Novak.” Nevertheless, their semifinal is sure to be the talk of the tennis world until it’s played Friday. For Djokovic — who didn’t need to exert himself Tuesday, because his quarterfinal opponent, Fabio Fognini, withdrew Monday with an injured left leg — a victory over Federer would guarantee a rise to No. 1 in the rankings for the first time. It also would make the second-seeded Serb 42-0 in 2011, tying John McEnroe in 1984 for the best start to a season in the Open era, which began in 1968. And it would put Djokovic one win from his first French Open title, the objective he cares most about at the moment. For Federer, a victory would put him into his first Grand Slam final in more than 16 months, his longest drought since he won his first major title at Wimbledon in 2003. It would allow Federer to make clear to everyone that he’s still at the top of the game as his 30th birthday approaches in August. Plus, it would serve as something of a rebuke to Djokovic, who beat Federer in the semifinals at the U.S. Open in September and Australian Open in January. “There’s less at stake for me than for him,” said Federer, who is 13-9 against Djokovic over their careers but 0-3 this year. “He’s got a lot of things going on.” Both men surely are well aware who the last player to defeat Djokovic anywhere was: Federer, a 6-4, 6-1 winner in the ATP Finals at London, way back on Nov. 27. Against Monfils, Federer began poorly, bothered by swirling wind that reached 30 mph and delayed the match at one point because clouds of loose clay dust kicked up into the players’ eyes.

CMYK Car sales go into reverse

Slowing growth

Shortages of cars and parts following the earthquake and tsunami in Japan are catching up with car makers. So companies’ sales reports are expected to show that the industry had a dip in its recovery during May. Industry analysts forecast total sales of about 1.1 million cars and trucks, down 8 percent from April and 4 percent from a year ago. Fewer incentives also kept some buyers away.

The nation’s factories led the way out of recession, and now their slower growth is one reason why economists say the economy is in a soft patch. The Institute for Supply Management will release its index on manufacturing for May. It’s expected to show that manufacturing grew, but at a slower pace for the third month in a row. The index is compiled from a survey of purchasing executives at industrial companies.

Commerce choice made

President Barack Obama has tapped energy executive John Bryson to lead the Commerce Department, putting a businessman at the helm of an agency tasked with boosting U.S. exports and promoting American business around the world. Bryson is the former chairman and CEO of Edison International, a California-based energy company. Bryson was also the co-founder for the Natural Resources Defense Council and a member of a United Nation’s advisory group on energy and climate change. If confirmed by the Senate, Bryson would replace outgoing Commerce Secretary Gary Locke. Obama nominated Locke to serve as ambassador to China.

NEW YORK — Americans are losing faith that the economy will keep improving, according to a monthly survey. The Conference Board’s Consumer Confidence Index fell to a six-month low of 60.8 from a revised 66 in April, a sign of the toll that high gas prices, a choppy job outlook and a moribund housing market are taking on people’s psyches. Economists had expected an increase to 67. “Consumers are considerably more ap-

prehensive about future business and labor market conditions as well as their income prospects,” said Lynn Franco, director of The Conference Board Consumer Research Center. She said fears of inflation that had eased in April picked up again in May. The index, released Tuesday, is still far from the reading of 90 that indicates a healthy economy. It hasn’t approached that level since the recession began in December 2007. The results paint a different picture

PNC has remote deposit

PNC Bank will now let any consumer or small-business customer deposit checks remotely by using their smartphones. The bank is expanding a mobilebanking feature previously available only to its PNC Virtual Wallet customers. Since April, they have been able to use mobile devices to photograph a check and download the image to make a “remote deposit” -- all in about 90 seconds. The feature is meant to appeal to customers with checks but far from a PNC branch or automated teller machine. Funds from checks deposited before 8 p.m. are usually available the next business day. Customers can use an iPhone, iPod touch or iPad 2 device to make their remote deposit. PNC is the first bank in Northeastern Pennsylvania to offer mobile deposit.

NEW YORK — Apple Inc. CEO Steve Jobs will take a break from medical leave to deliver the keynote speech at next week’s Apple conference, the company said Tuesday. Jobs went on medical leave in January for unspecified reasons, handing over day-to-day control to chief operating officer Tim Cook. Jobs has remained involved in larger decisions at the company, and demonstrated the new iPad model at a news conference in March.

Nokia Corp. on Tuesday warned its second-quarter sales and margins will be much lower than expected as rivals challenge the world’s largest handset maker in both smartphones and lowend devices. The Finnish company said net sales in its key devices and services unit will be “substantially below its previously expected range of 6.1 billion to 6.6 billion” in the second quarter. Nokia has been struggling against tough competition in the top end smartphone market, especially against Apple Inc.’s iPhone, Research in Motion’s Blackberry and on the software front against Android. .

Nokia issues warning

Toyota production in Japan will recover to 90 percent of pre-disaster levels in June, faster than the world’s biggest automaker had projected and highlighting its power to bounce back from the supply disruptions caused by the March earthquake and tsunami. Toyota Motor Corp. gave its good news to suppliers in a meeting Tuesday. The disasters in northeastern Japan had damaged the plants of key parts suppliers, disrupting production at all Japanese automakers. Even with production increasing, some vehicle models could be in short supply for months. It previously said global production would be at about 70 percent in coming months and was not expected to return to normal until late this year.

than earlier this year, when many hoped the economic recovery was gaining steam. In February, consumer confidence hit a three-year high. But since then, consumers have started paying more for food and gasoline and are seeing a “double dip” in the housing market. Part of the problem in May was that the confidence survey’s cutoff of May 18 did not give consumers enough time to react to falling gas prices, which peaked early in the month, IHS Global Insight Economist Chris Christopher said.

Homebuilder Hovnanian Enterprises said in its last earnings report that orders picked up during January. Many builders grew optimistic about the spring selling season. But since then, sales have generally been disappointing. Toll Brothers, an upscale builder, said it had more orders during the spring, but the government and the National Association of Realtors have reported sluggish home sales. So expectations for Hovnanian’s earnings report today are modest.

Michaels sued over stolen info By BECKY YERAK Chicago Tribune

CHICAGO — Michaels Stores Inc. has been hit with a lawsuit by a Libertyville, Ill., woman claiming that the retailer failed to safeguard shoppers’ credit and debit card information and personal identification numbers. The lawsuit comes several weeks after the arts and crafts retailer disclosed that its checkoutline PIN pads had been tampered with in 20 states. The lawsuit was filed Friday in U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Illinois. It seeks class-action status for any U.S. resident who made a purchase at a Michaels ON THE WEB store nationwide using a Information about debit fraud at Midebit or chaels, including a credit card list of affected swiped stores, can be found through a here: http:// www.michaels.com/ PIN pad on ConsumerNotices/ or after Jan. 1. According to the lawsuit, Michaels customer Mary Allen used her Harris Bank debit card on or around March 15 to buy $18.16 in goods from a Michaels store in Vernon Hills, Ill. “Plaintiff swiped her debit card through one of the tampered Michaels PIN pads and unwittingly had her debit card information and PIN number stolen as a result,” the lawsuit said. On May 4, she tried to withdraw money at her local Harris Bank. The transaction was denied. Allen said a Harris Bank representative told her the card had been deactivated because of suspicious activity in the account. An account record showed two unauthorized transactions on or around May 4 for $503 each. One occurred in Duarte, Calif., and a second in Monrovia, Calif. Allen said she reported the theft to the police, but never received any alert from Michaels. The Chicago Tribune has previously reported that some Michaels’ customers have reported fraudulent cash machine withdrawals, each totaling hundreds of dollars. Michaels has said that fewer than 100 customer debit cards have been affected. “Michaels’ lack of adequate security granted easy access to third parties who tampered with instore PIN pads to ‘unwitting customers’ debit and credit card information and subsequently steal money directly from the victims’ bank accounts,” said the lawsuit.

Unemployment rate in area lowest since 2009 By ANDREW M. SEDER aseder@timesleader.com

For the first time in two years, the seasonally adjusted unemployment rate for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre metropolitan statistic area was at or below 8.4 percent. According to data, which will be made public today by the Department of Labor and Industry’s Center for Workforce Information & Analysis, the local metropolitan statistic area (MSA) decreased in April for the seventh consecutive month, dropping from 8.6 to 8.4 percent. That’s the lowest rate since April 2009 when the rate was 8.1 percent. While the rate dropped, it wasn’t enough to move the lo-

cal MSA out of the 14th position among the state’s14 MSAs. The Allentown/Bethlehem/ Easton and Philadelphia MSAs reported unemployment rates of 8.2 percent in April. The lowest unemployment rate in the state’s 14 largest MSAs was in State College where the rate was 5.5 percent. Across the state, the unem-

ployment news in April was good. Steven Zellers, an industry and business analyst with the Center for Workforce Information & Analysis, said “the economy in general is slowly improving. … It’s a general trend.” He said no employment sectors or supersectors registered gains or losses that stood out as

overly great or overly worrisome. “There’s not any one area that we would say is fantastic,” Zellers said. While declining to predict the future, and whether the unemployment rates will continue its “slow but steady” dips, he said he doesn’t see anything “that will put a halt to it.” “I’m cautiously optimistic. Things are generally improving statewide as well as in WilkesBarre,” Zellers said. “A rising tide lifts all boats,” Zellers said. The declining unemployment rate follows the state trend but bucks the national numbers in April. Pennsylvania’s unemployment rate declined three-tenths of a point to

7.5 percent in April, while the United States’ rate increased two-tenths to 9.0 percent. Over the past year, the unemployment rate for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre metropolitan statistic area has dropped 1.3 percentage points. The local MSA’s seasonally adjusted total nonfarm jobs rose 900 to 256,000 in April. Over the past year, seasonally adjusted total nonfarm jobs in the MSA were up by 3,900. The largest increase in jobs for a supersector was in the professional and business services. Jobs rose by 1,400. This supersector includes tax preparation, landscaping and other industries that typically show seasonal increases during spring, according to Zellers.

since November. Housing: Home prices in major markets fell to their lowest level since the housing bubble ended in 2006. Prices fell because foreclosures have created a glut of cheap homes. European debt crisis: Greece appeared headed toward its second bailout in two years. Ratings agencies warned that they might downgrade Greece’s debt and Italy’s. Investors worry that a worsening crisis in Europe would send stocks falling. One reason: Many U.S. companies generate a significant part of their revenue abroad. Despite a dismal May, many analysts believe stocks will soon resume their rally because corporate earnings are strong. Companies in the S&P 500 are expected to see their earnings rise 14.5 percent in the second quarter and 18 percent in 2011.

Today marks the start of meteorological summer and the ﬁrst day of the Atlantic hurricane season. Now, despite the fact that we just had our third-wettest spring in over 100 years, our summer rainfall is expected to be near normal. After all, trends in the weather have to end sooner or later and so, perhaps, we are now entering into a period when the nice days start to outnumber the bad ones. At least, that appears to be the case over the next 10 days. An above-average number of tropical storms and hurricanes are predicted this season with an above average probability of storms making landfall along the East Coast. - Tom Clark

A brick’s the trick in this chicken dish

explode in popularity By JAMES A. FUSSELL

McClatchy Newspapers

ake pops — those colorful dipped and decorated golf ball-sized rounds of cake on a stick — are everywhere. They’re popping up at school functions and weddings, birthday parties and baby showers.

There are books about cake pops, classes and YouTube videos. Even Starbucks sells them. Popularized by a blogger known as Bakerella ( www.bakerella.com), cake pops have taken over as the new cupcake. In her New York Times best-seller, Bakerella shows readers how to craft cake pops that look like robots, koalas, puppies and ghosts. The classic cake pop is a super-sweet and mushy mouthful. In its original form it is made of finely crumbled cake and frosting creamed together, chilled, then dipped in colorful candy melt and decorated. In the past few years they’ve become an international sensation, and many cities are going cake-pop crazy. In Prairie Village, Kansas, for example, 15-year-old Sarah Fox, a fresh-

man at Shawnee Mission East High School, has started her own cake-pop company called Great Expecaketions. A local business has started to sell them. Great Expecaketions is no sidewalk lemonade stand. It’s a real company com-

plete with a website (www.greatexpecake tions.com), Facebook page, professional pictures and logo. Sarah’s pops are even for sale at a local business — Social Suppers in Corinth Square — for $1.60 per pop. So how did a teenager who can’t even vote start her own company? She had a little help from her parents. “She’s got a dad in sales and a mom with a marketing background,” Sarah’s mother, Sylvia Fox, said. “We heard about cake pops from a friend in St. Louis who had mentioned them on her Facebook page. That was in early January. I told Sarah, because she likes to bake, and she’s an artist of sorts.” Sarah made more than a hundred cake pops the Sunday before Valentine’s Day for her 11-year-old brother’s school party. They were a hit. But not right away. “A lot of the kids thought it was a chocolate lollipop,” Sylvia Fox said. “And by Valentine’s Day you’ve had so much chocolate that it doesn’t seem that special. But then I said to them, ‘Hey, there’s cake on that stick!’ They were all like, ‘Oh, I love cake!’ But it was also interesting to see the mothers. (Some) had never seen (cake pops) before. See POPS, Page 2C

LOTS OF CHEFS don’t like to part with their recipes, but I’m happy to offer this. It’s simple to prepare and allows you to use the

whole chicken. Gotti Chicken, also known as Chicken Under a Brick, originated in Northern California, where I spent a working vacation with my close friend Robert Shaffer. I brought it back to the East Coast where I was asked to do a party for a famous person who added the brick to it. (Of course, I added the foil.) I gave it a name and had great success with the dish for the past several years. Using the dark meat on a whole chicken, let alone the skin, is somewhat difficult in the world of fine dining, but this dish allows you to use the whole chicken with minimal waste. Even the livers make a great appetizer wrapped in bacon and dredged in lemon and peppercorns. Gotti Chicken can be prepared on a hot grill or in a cast-iron pan and is nicely complemented by sweet and sour onions and rosemary jus. •••

GOTTI CHICKEN For the chicken: 1 ⁄2 deboned 3- or 4-pound chicken 1 chicken-size brick, covered in foil 3 ounces olive oil 2 ounces butter Open chicken and season both sides with salt and pepper. In a very hot pan add olive oil and whole butter. When butter is lightly brown, add chicken skin side down. Place brick on top of chicken and place in 400-degree oven approximately 15 minutes. •••

SWEET AND SOUR ONIONS 1 large onion, diced large 3 ounces champagne vinegar 10 ounces heavy cream salt and pepper to taste Lightly sauté onions in olive oil without adding color. Add the rest of ingredients over medium heat until sauce is slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper. •••

ROSEMARY JUS All discarded chicken bones 1 diced carrot 1 ⁄2 diced small onion 2 diced celery stems 4 smashed garlic cloves 1 small stem rosemary 20 peppercorns 2 quarts water 1 quart white wine 3 ounces butter Add all ingredients except butter to pot and apply rapid heat until 16 ounces of juice remains. Strain stock and reduce to eight ounces. Add butter on medium heat until slightly thickened. Season with salt and pepper.

The ramp: green, scrawny and irrationally adored RAMPS IN NEPA?

By JOCELYN NOVECK AP National Writer

NEW YORK — It’s scrawny. It’s dirty. It’s bulbous. Its very name is rather pedestrian. If you had to think of the most unlikely adjective to describe a ramp, “sexy” would probably be it. And yet that’s just the word that comes to chef Marc Forgione as he tries to describe what a ramp — yes, just a little old wild leek — means to him. “There’s something to me that’s very sexy about a thing we can only get in the woods, and only at certain times,” says Forgione, whose hip Manhattan eatery bears his name. “It’s like taking a breath of fresh air,” he adds, continuing his ode to the vegetable, around which he recently fashioned a seven-course menu with dishes like ramp-crusted lamb loin and ramp ice cream with foie gras shavings. “And look at what it represents. Change. The winter’s over. Spring is here. Let’s go back to what’s fresh and green.”

Though Forgione may be among the most ardent of the ramp’s proponents — particularly in the wildly inventive ways he cooks it — this chef/restaurateur, who has twice won a Michelin star for his Tribeca eatery and once won “The Next Iron Chef,” is far from alone. For more than a decade now, but seemingly more each year, foodies and chefs have gone crazy over the veggie,

So besides scouring the hillsides and doing some questionable foraging, can you find ramps in Northeastern Pennsylvania? Maybe, maybe not. A produce employee at Wegmans in Wilkes-Barre Township, the grocer we often count on to stock the most difficultto-find foods, said ramps aren’t normally stocked at the local store but can be special-ordered. Those who want them badly enough, too, can order them online, but the price tag is steep. A 5-pound box, for example, from marxfoods.com costs $114.

— “like a bar straw,” Forgione says — but more pungent and garlicky later in the season. They adapt their recipes accordingly. “I love ramps — they’re one of my favorite foods,” says Kenji Lopez-Alt, managing editor of the Serious Eats blog, who gets his at the farmers market and occasionally finds them at Whole Foods. “I buy as many as I can, and I immediately pickle half of them. I love them sauteed in brown butter, served with a runny fried egg for breakfast. I make dumplings stuffed with ramps and pork. They’re also great on the grill, and I’ve never made this, but I had an awesome ramp soup recently at The Spotted Pig” — another hip downtown Manhattan eatery. Is all the adoration too much? This season, several scientists have raised the possibility that ramps, due to their everburgeoning popularity, are being overharvested in some parts of the United

whose short season — roughly four to five weeks in the spring — makes it that much more desirable, like an enigmatic lover who pops in from overseas and then quickly disappears. Ramp-lovers know it can be hard to find their prized leeks, so they get to the farmers market early and buy as many as they can. They know ramps can be sweet and aromatic at the early stage and thin See RAMP, Page 2C

local food professionals and home economists known as “The Electrified Cooks” (who also develop recipes for The Star’s Eating for Life column), wrote the instruction book and demonstrated the appliance at the March show. Everyone loved it, Moore said. “Because you can, for the first time, bake balls of cake batter so easily and in just four minutes,” she said. “People were thrilled that you could do them so easily and make them with pure cake rather than with the cake and frosting combination. And these are small bites. There’s so much less guilt. It doesn’t ruin the caloric input for the day.” One limitation: Since the cake is not mixed with frosting, it is not moldable. It’s round, or nothing. Still, the machine has proved popular. “My neighbor has been converted,” Wyss said. “She keeps (cake balls) in her freezer and pulls them out as she needs them. She’s used them as teacher-appreciation gifts and taken them to a

friend who was in the hospital. At Easter, instead of doing eggs, she decorated cake pops and took them up and down the neighborhood.” The cake-pop maker costs $24.95 at Kohl’s and also is available on the company’s website, thebabycakesshop.com.

Beginning in July the pops will be made in California, but she will retain a test kitchen in Kansas City. “This is a Kansas City success story,” she said. Pener Johnston, a trained pastry chef, describes Browniepops as a cross between a truffle and a gooey brownie. “Our formulation is such that we can hand-mold it,” she said. “We do bunny rabbits and chickens, and right now we are working on Father’s Day. I’m watching the artists hand-mold them into footballs and hand-paint baseballs and basketballs.” She also makes cheesecake pops.

States, threatening their ultimate survival. There is little data, only anecdotal evidence, but it’s enough to raise eyebrows. (Ramp sales have been banned in Quebec for years for that reason). “You could go onto a hillside and say, ‘Oh my gosh, there are tons of them, so what’s the big deal?’ ” says Lawrence DavisHollander, an ethnobotanist and author who has been at the forefront of those raising the alarm. “But we know that in other places they are being overharvested.” The trick, Davis-Hollander says, is to figure out how much of a ramp patch can be harvested, and how often, to avoid damage. “Is there a number of ramps we could take from a patch and leave it sustainable? Yes. Do we know what it is? No.” So how does something people have been eating for hun-

dreds of years, perhaps thousands, get to be so hot — in the veggie world — that it might even be endangered? Dana Cowin, editor-in-chief of Food & Wine magazine, thinks one answer lies in the concurrent popularity of the food-to-table movement and the emphasis on seasonal produce.

www.timesleader.com

“Ramps have been around for as long as there have been bogs and streams and meadows,” Cowin says. “But as we’ve become increasingly obsessed with everything seasonal, that in turn has made us look toward what is truly fleeting — and ramps are one of those things.” Though ardent foodies have been salivating over ramps for as long as two decades, Cowin says she’s noticed an upswing in interest in the past five years. Maybe only a few specialized restaurants would have featured ramps prominently on the menu five years ago, she says, but as the farm-to-table movement has expanded to more and bigger restaurants, obviously demand has increased. And the relative difficulty of obtaining ramps has, of course, only increased the veggie’s cachet (some would say its snob appeal.) Asparagus? Sure, it’s great, but you can get it yearround. But a ramp? “It’s like that elusive thing — the bad boyfriend, the jazzy car of the vegetable world,” Cowin jokes.

Expecting older mother gets unexpected reaction from her family Dear Abby: I’m a 40-year-old, stay-athome mom with a 17-year-old and a 14-year-old. Three weeks ago, on my birthday, I found out that I am pregnant. Forty and pregnant — it is truly a miracle. My husband, who is almost 50, is in complete shock. He has looked like a ghost since he found out. I finally had an emotional meltdown and told him I don’t feel like he’s very happy for our unexpected bundle. His reply? “Sorry, Hon, I’m not!” He thinks he’s too old. My older child has said only one sentence to me since I told her the news: “You’re going to be an

DEAR ABBY ADVICE old mom.” They feel I have ruined their lives. I feel ... happy. How do I get them to warm up to this new addition to the family? — Old Mama in Washington State Dear “Old” Mama: According to the 2002 National Survey of Family Growth by the Guttmacher Institute, in 2001, 49 percent of pregnancies in the United States were unintended. Among women aged 15 to 44, the unintended pregnancy rate was 51 per 1,000 women. So remind your husband that this pregnancy didn’t happen “magi-

cally”; he was an equal partner. He may have had other plans in mind for the next 20 years than raising another child, so his feelings are understandable. While it would be nice if he felt differently about the latest addition to the family, he might perk up if you point out that there are many older dads these days, and many older moms, too. As to your daughter’s attitude, she will be out of the house and gone soon, so don’t take personally that she’s not over the moon about the changes that are coming. If you maintain a positive attitude, your enthusiasm will be contagious. Dear Abby: I’m 53, work in an office six to eight hours a day, and then come home to cook dinner

CRYPTOQUOTE

and do household chores. My husband, “Todd,” is 48. He works eight to 10 hours a day and expects sex three to four times a week. I’m exhausted and can’t do it anymore! My best friend, “Mavis,” has been a widow for five years. She tells me she’s going crazy because she hasn’t had sex in all this time. She asked if I’d share Todd just one night a week. Mavis isn’t pretty, but she has a very shapely figure. Frankly, I’m ready to agree, but I haven’t mentioned it to Todd. If my husband agrees, it would take a lot of pressure off me and I could sure use the rest. What are your thoughts on this arrangement? — Needs a Break in Phoenix

Dear Needs A Break: Please find another way to take a break. What you’re contemplating would likely be the beginning of the end of your marriage. You may think you’d be “safe” because Mavis isn’t pretty, but to quote Benjamin Franklin, “In the dark, all cats are gray.” If you’re tired, let Mavis help with the chores — but not this one.

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). Once upon a time, you may have fantasized about finding the prince or princess of your dreams. But now you have some very practical and realistic goals for your love life, and you are rapidly approaching them. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Mingling with new people, you’ll find you immediately click with some — with others, not at all. So stick where you feel the magic. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). A distracting influence may actually do you a favor. Some will find it difficult to get back to work after the disruption, but you’ll find the break in order to be creatively invigorating. CANCER (June 22-July 22). When your emotional needs are met, you feel physically strong and able. The affection and attention of a loved one will have a positive effect on your health. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You used to think there was no such thing as “too nice.” Now you understand that a certain person will keep pushing and asking until you have nothing more to give. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You don’t have to be the best in order to win the vote that counts. You will be chosen because you’re a terrific fit, not because you’re the most experienced and qualified. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Find creative inspiration. It is not an indulgence so much as a way for you to save the world. Indeed, the evolution of man depends on the dreams of healthy minds. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’ll rehearse certain things that oth-

ers wouldn’t take the time to practice. That’s because you see the value in presenting yourself in a smooth, cool manner. One advantage is that people will immediately trust you. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You can relax in the knowledge that no one will rate your performance unless you specifically ask for such an evaluation. Feel free to do things the way you want to do them. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). In the past, you’ve said “yes” when you wanted to say “no.” You’ve since learned your lesson. You will get the chance to prove it today, as you make the choice that’s right for you. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You have a special gift for dealing with eccentric people. You have ways of maneuvering their tricky personality traits, understanding what they really mean and accepting them for who they are. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your body has an intelligence you can trust. Pay attention to physical signals. If you’re not sure what they mean, pose the question to your body and see if an answer pops to mind. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 1). It is a year of increased personal power. An important accomplishment you make by the end of September will illustrate the point. Between now and then, you will focus your efforts and keep from procrastinating. A key purchase in October will make your work easier. Libra and Scorpio people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 9, 50, 15, 33 and 17.

BY ORDER OF THE BOARD Leonard B. Przywara, Secretary SUSQUEHANNA RIVER BASIN COMMISSION NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING REVISED REGULATORY PROGRAM FEE SCHEDULE, AMENDED COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, AND ACTION ON DIVERSIONS The Susquehanna River Basin Commission (SRBC) will hold a public hearing during its regular meeting on June 23, 2011 at Cecil College, the Conference Center, One Seahawk Drive, North East, Maryland 21901, beginning at 8:30 a.m. One purpose of the hearing is to receive comments on a revised SRBC Regulatory Program Fee Schedule.

SRBC will also consider amendments to its Comprehensive Plan for Management of the Water Resources of the Susquehanna River Basin. The proposed amendments include the additions of the FY 2012 Annual Water Resources Program, the recently adopted Migratory Fish Management and Restoration Plan for the Susquehanna River Basin, and all water resources projects approved by the Commission between January 1, 2010 and June 30, 2011. In addition, SRBC will consider approval of the following diversion of water into the Susquehanna River Basin from the Delaware River Basin: 1. Project Sponsor: Nature’s Way Purewater Systems, Inc. Project Facility: Nature’s Way Springs Borehole 1 (BH-1), Foster Township, Luzerne County, Pa. Application for an into-basin diversion of up to 0.100 mgd from the Delaware River Basin.
