BELLEFONTE — A jury dominated by people with Penn State loyalties was selected Wednesday to decide Jerry Sandusky’s fate in the child sexual abuse scandal that rocked the university and led to football coach Joe Paterno’s downfall. The seven women and five men who will hear opening statements on Monday include an engineering administrative assistant at Penn State, a dance teacher in the continuing education program and a professor who has been on the faculty for 24 years. Also: a Penn State senior, a retired soil sciences professor with 37 years at the university, a man with bachelor’s and master’s degrees from the school and a woman who has been a season ticketholder since the 1970s. Sandusky, a 68-year-old former assistant football coach, is charged with sexually abusing 10 boys over a 15-year span. Picking the jury took less than two days, moving along more swiftly than some had expected, given that the rural area is rich with Penn State employees, alumni and fans, many of whom have strong opinions about the case.

SAINTE-MARIE-DU-MONT, France — With World War II-era military planes darting overhead and Normandy’s Utah Beach visible in the distance, a bronze statue emerged from beneath a camouflage parachute, in tribute to a man whose quiet leadership was chronicled in the book and television series “Band of Brothers.”

The unveiling of the Coloradomade statue of Pennsylvania native Maj. Dick Winters was one of many events marking Wednesday’s 68th anniversary of D-Day, the Allied operation that paved the way for the end of the war. The 12-foot-tall bronze statue in the Normandy village of Sainte-Marie-du-Mont shows Winters with his weapon at the ready. But Winters — a native of Ephrata, who died last year at age 92 — only accepted serving as the statue’s likeness after monument planners agreed to dedicate it to the memory of all junior U.S. military officers who served that

day. “There were many Dick Winters in this war, and all deserve the bronze and glory of a statue,” said former Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Ridge, present as the bronze statue, draped in a camouflage parachute, was unveiled. Also attending were four or five D-Day vets, including two who served in Winters’ “Easy Company,” Al Mampre and Herb Suerth Jr. AP PHOTO A Wilkes-Barre man, the late Harry F.

W-Cat project developer files countersuit Powell Law Group alleges meddling, conflict of interest on the part of Dunmore bank. By JERRY LYNOTT jlynott@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – One of the developers behind the troubled WCat project blamed its lender First National Community Bank for the problems leading to loan defaults by the group planning to build townhouses in Mountain Top. Allegations of meddling and conflicts of interest at the Dunmore-based bank were detailed in a counterclaim filed Wednesday in Luzerne County Court by the Powell Law Group of Hazle Township. A message left with bank spokesman Joseph Earyes was not returned. The civil suit defined the roles of attorney Robert Powell and former county judges Mark Ciavarella and

Michael Conahan who faced separate criminal charges as the central figures in the federal corruption probe involving a multimillion-dollar kickback scheme related to the construction of two juvenile detention centers and placement of youths in the for-profit facilities. All three have been sentenced to prison with Powell, who cooperated with authorities, getting 18 months; a fraction of the17 ½ years for Conahan and the 28 years for Ciavarella. The suit was in response to the confession of judgment the bank filed three years ago against Powell, the former judges and other developers who guaranteed the

$4.5 million in construction loans for the townhouse development in Wright Township. According to the counterclaim, the developers defaulted, but it was due to the bank’s actions, such as making the W-Cat loans contingent upon using a company controlled by Michael Cestone, a bank director and one of the developers of the project. Cestone proved to be unreliable, performing work “on an untimely basis,” and as a result of the delays, the developers “missed the height of the real estate market to the significant detriment of the W-Cat project,” the suit said. Cestone was paid for work “not

appropriately delivered” after Conahan used his position as a bank director and interfered with recommendations of consulting architect Acker & Associates against payment, the suit said. Cestone could not be reached for comment. The project of the scope and type of the 86-unit townhouse development should have had a Phase I environmental review, but the bank did not require one that would have uncovered the presence of chemically contaminated well water near the property along Church Road, the suit said. Powell and Jill Moran, who worked in the law firm, were involved in negotiations to sell the project to Foster Wheeler Corp. But Foster Wheeler backed out after the bank suggested guarantors of the project were having financial difficulties, the suit said. The bank’s representation that the project was not deserving of another loan caused another poten-

tial buyer, the McGinley Creative Group, to walk away, the suit said. While the bank was interfering with W-Cat’s attempts to sell the project, the bank also was trying to market the project to others without the permission of W-Cat, the suit said. Furthermore, the suit referred to a consent order of Sept. 1, 2010, from the Comptroller of the Currency, requiring the bank to develop and adhere to a comprehensive conflict of interest policy dealing with insiders, such as directors, executive officers and principal shareholders, and their immediate family members. The Powell firm also alleged the bank approved a $1.35 million loan to Big Kahuna Realty for the development of an office complex in Butler Township without disclosing conflicts of interests. Apart from the Powell firm’s claims, bank shareholders filed suit alleging insider loans contributed to the drop in its net worth.

Navy veterans get D-Day recognition

Dozens of corpsmen and doctors waited decades to receive Bronze Stars. By CHRIS CAROLA Associated Press

ALBANY, N.Y. — Kenneth Davey said the grim reason his father and other medical personnel from his Navy unit never received the Bronze Star for their actions at Normandy on DDay was because many of the officers who would have made the required recommendations were killed before they even landed on the beach. The oversight is being rectified for the dozens of corpsmen and doctors in the 6th Naval Beach Battalion who hit Omaha Beach on June 6, 1944, an hour after the first wave landed. On Wednesday, the 68th anniversary of the Allied invasion of France, former corpsman Frank Walden of Walnut Creek, Calif., received the Bronze Star and a Combat Medical Badge during a ceremony at Naval Amphibious Base Coronado, outside San Diego. The medals also will be presented at later dates to the unit’s nine other surviving medical personnel, as well as the families of some 70 deceased battalion veterans. The upper echelon of the battalion, a forerunner of the Navy Seals, was “basically wiped out” by German machine gun and artillery fire, said Davey, the unit’s history consultant for its website. Davey’s father, J. Russell Davey Jr., was a 26-year-old doctor from Philadelphia when he landed at Normandy. Davey was only a year old when his father died suddenly in 1948. David Catallo of Waterford, near Albany, made it to the beach but was hit by an exploding shell. “I remember going up in the air, and that’s all,” said the 87year-old retired postmaster in a phone interview. He woke up in a hospital bed in England, suffering from a concussion, Catallo said. The corpsmen, as the Navy and Marines call their medics, weren’t faring much better. Five were killed instantly; many were wounded as they struggled ashore and tried to treat wounded soldiers and sailors. Andrew Chimiel, an 18-yearold from Moosic, Pa., was wounded and temporarily paralyzed soon after he landed. “They were just hitting us all over the place,” Chimiel, an 87-

year-old retired Xerox engineer, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview from his home in Fairport, a Rochester suburb. “A lot of us were casualties. You do what you can. That’s it.” Attached to an engineer brigade with the Army’s 1st Infantry Division, the battalion’s ranks included demolition experts, radio operators and beachmasters, sailors who served as shoreline “traffic cops” during amphibious landings. The unit’s medical detachment included about 10 doctors and more than 70 corpsmen. Kenneth Davey, a 65-year-old retired high school teacher from Hopewell Junction in Dutchess County, began researching “They were his father’s cajust hitting military reer as the us all over 50th anniverthe place. sary of D-Day approached in A lot of us 1994.

Inside, Andrew Chimiel he found letMoosic native ters his father who was 18 when wrote home, injured during along with the D-Day invasion elder Davey’s combat helmet and military records. The find led Davey to other battalion veterans over the years. Kenneth Davey will eventually be able to add the Combat Medical Badge and the Bronze Star to that sea chest. In January, Davey sent a letter to the Army asking whether the battalion’s medical personnel were eligible for the Combat Medical Badge. The Department of the Army approved the request in March, along with the Bronze Star, the military’s fourth highest medal for combat bravery. Military officials said the sailors were due the higher award, too, because in 1947 the Army retroactively authorized awarding the Bronze Star to soldiers who had received the Combat Medical Badge. Walden was the only member of the unit to receive the medal on Wednesday. Davey said five of the surviving battalion members live in the Northeast, and he is hoping to hold a presentation ceremony this summer at the U.S. Military Academy at West Point for as many of the survivors who can attend.

Science fiction writer Ray Bradbury is seen in November 2000 at the National Book Awards in New York, where he was given the Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters. Bradbury, who wrote everything from science-fiction and mystery to humor, died Tuesday.

Bradbury brought style to sci-fi Author praised for literary quality of futuristic works died Tuesday at age 91. By LYNELL GEORGE Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES -- Ray Bradbury, the writer whose expansive flights of fantasy and vividly rendered space-scapes have provided the world with one of the most enduring speculative blueprints for the future, has died. He was 91. Bradbury died Tuesday night in Los Angeles, his agent Michael Congdon confirmed. His family said in a statement that he had suffered from a long illness. Author of more than 27 novels and story collections - most famously “The Martian Chronicles,” “Fahrenheit 451,” “Dandelion Wine” and “Something

Wicked This Way Comes” -- and more than 600 short stories, Bradbury has frequently been credited with elevating the oftenmaligned reputation of science fiction. Some say he singlehandedly helped to move the genre into the realm of literature. “The only figure comparable to mention would be (Robert A) Heinlein and then later (Arthur C.) Clarke,” said Gregory Benford, a University of California, Irvine, physics professor who is also a Nebula Award-winning science fiction writer. “But Bradbury, in the ’40s and ’50s, became the name brand.” Much of Bradbury’s accessibility and ultimate popularity had to do with his gift as a stylist -- his ability to write lyrically and evocatively of lands an imagination away, worlds he anchored in the here and now with a sense of visual clarity and small-town famil-

iarity. The late Sam Moskowitz, the pre-eminent historian of science fiction, once offered this assessment: “In style, few match him. And the uniqueness of a story of Mars or Venus told in the contrasting literary rhythms of Hemingway and Thomas Wolfe is enough to fascinate any critic.” As influenced by George Bernard Shaw and William Shakespeare as he was by Jules Verne and Edgar Rice Burroughs, Bradbury was an expert of the taut tale, the last-sentence twist. And he was more celebrated for short fiction than his longer works. Ray Douglas Bradbury was born Aug. 22, 1920, in Waukegan, Ill., to Leonard Spaulding Bradbury and the former Esther Marie Moberg. As a child he soaked up the ambience of small-town life that would later become a hallmark of much of his fiction.

Angry Miss Pa. quits, faces lawsuit by Trump The Miss USA contestant claims she has proof the contest was rigged. The Associated Press

PITTSBURGH — The Miss USA pageant representative from Pennsylvania resigned her crown claiming the contest is rigged, but according to organizers the beauty queen was upset over the decision to allow transgender contestants to enter. A posting on Miss Pennsylvania Sheena Monnin’s Facebook page claims another contestant

learned the names of the top 5 finishers on Sunday morning — hours before the show was broadcast. Monnin claims the other contestant told her the names of the top 5 she spotted on a planning sheet for the telecast — and she decided to step down as soon as those same contestants were named during the show. “In my heart I believe in honesty, fair play, a fair opportunity, and high moral integrity, none of which in my opinion are part of this pageant system any longer,” Monnin wrote in one of her Facebook posts.

She made a very false charge and she knows it’s a false charge,” Trump said.

U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta, R-Hazleton, has announced that President Barack Obama signed a bill to name the post office in Pittston after fallen Pennsylvania State Police Trooper Joshua D. Miller – almost three years to the day after he was killed in the line of duty. A formal naming Miller ceremony will be held at the post office on a future date, Barletta said. Miller was shot and killed in the line of duty on June 7, 2009, after a car chase and shootout in Tobyhanna, Monroe County. He and his partner rescued a 9-year-old boy who was kidnapped at gunpoint from his mother. He left behind his wife, Angela, and three daughters.

Pennsylvania Auditor General Jack Wagner saw firsthand the poor state of the South Main Street bridge in Old Forge on Wednesday. With 96 structurally deficient bridges in Lackawanna County compared to 12 McDonald’s fast food restaurants, motorists are eight times as likely to pass a problem bridge than they are a McDonald’s, he said. In Luzerne County they are 15 times as likely. A report prepared two years ago by former Gov. Ed Rendell’s Transportation Advisory Committee estimated the state’s unfunded transportation needs at $3.5 billion. During the visit Wagner renewed his call for the state General Assembly to make it a priority to pass a comprehensive transportation and infrastructure bill.

But in Massachusetts, the only state with a so-called individual mandate, the threat of a tax penalty has sparked little public outcry since the state’s landmark health care law was signed in 2006 by the governor, Mitt Romney. Romney, now the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, pushed for the mandate saying it would discourage “free riders,” those who can afford health coverage but instead rely on

emergency rooms for free care and drive up insurance premiums for everyone else. “What we are mandating is that individuals have personal responsibility either to Romney pay for their own health care bill or to receive insurance,” Romney said at the time. As a presidential candidate, Romney has tried to draw a line between his law and Obama’s, in most instances saying that states and not the federal government should decide whether to impose the requirement. The Republican’s record as Massachusetts governor — specifically his economic and fiscal policies — has been thrust into the spotlight by Obama to argue that Romney’s prescriptions for an ailing nation are wrongheaded. Largely missing from that cri-

tique has been Romney’s record on health care. That’s probably because Romney’s health care plan provided a blueprint for Obama’s 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act. It’s unclear how the issue will play in the general election as Romney seeks to woo voters across the political spectrum. Even with the mandate, the Massachusetts law remains popular. Two polls taken in the past year show more than 60 percent of Massachusetts residents approve of the law. One reason the mandate has failed to undermine that support is that so few people have had to pay. In 2009, the most recent year for which the state has figures, less than 1 percent of residents drew the penalty. Another reason for the law’s success is that Massachusetts had a high rate of insured residents even before the 2006 law, meaning the state had an easier

climb to its goal of near-universal coverage. About 400,000 have become insured since the law took effect. More than 98 percent of Massachusetts residents are now insured, including nearly all children, according to state officials. Not everyone has escaped the mandate. Massachusetts collected about $77 million in penalties from residents as a result the requirement from 20072009. The Supreme Court is weighing the constitutionality of the individual mandate as part of its larger consideration of the Affordable Care Act, which Republicans have dubbed “Obamacare.” The intense focus on the federal mandate may be disproportionate to the number of people who could end up paying a penalty. A recent study by the Urban Institute concluded that 94 percent of Americans would be exempt.

It came two weeks before the country is scheduled to hold its first postGadhafi national elections. Violence and disorder have plagued Libya since Gadhafi was captured and killed last October after an eight-month civil war.

State media said the 84-year-old former leader had a nervous breakdown in recent days and suffers from high blood pressure and depression. CINCINNATI

Diplomas held over cheers

A suburban Cincinnati high school held onto four graduates’ diplomas and required community service as punishment for what it describes as overly boisterous cheering by their families during the graduation ceremony. The mother of one of the graduates, who was one of the leading tacklers on the Mount Healthy school football team, doesn’t think he should get flagged for excessive celebration. “What does that have to do with him?” Traci Cornist told Cincinnati radio station WDBZ. She doesn’t dispute there was a lot of loud cheering for Anthony Cornist. Cornist also said she teaches her children to be accountable for their own actions, but she doesn’t think he should be punished for what other people do. Superintendent Lori Handler said Wednesday the problem wasn’t the loudness of the yells, but their long duration, which she said halted the ceremony. After past disruptions, a new policy was implemented this year aimed at making sure that all parents can hear their children’s names called and celebrated. When they ordered graduation tickets, parents agreed that “any disruptive behavior” would result in their child’s diploma being held until 20 hours of community service is completed, she said.

KABUL, Afghanistan — On the deadliest day in Afghanistan this year, 22 civilians were killed and 50 were wounded Wednesday in two suicide bombings in the restive southern province of Kandahar, while18 civilians were reported killed in a U.S.-led coalition airstrike in eastern Logar province. Coalition officials disputed Afghan reports of civilian casualties in the predawn airstrike, which they said was ordered after a joint Afghan-coalition force came under fire from insurgents while trying to capture a Taliban leader in the district of

Baraki Barak. An Afghan provincial official in Logar alleged that many of the victims were young children, but it was impossible to confirm the accounts immediately. "At this point, our understanding is still that there were no civilians killed as a result of that operation," said a spokesman for the International Security Assistance Force, Navy Lt. Cmdr. Brian Badura. Coalition officials said late Wednesday that a team would investigate the allegations. The airstrike took place early Wednesday after the U.S.-Afghan operation raided a house where a supposed Taliban meeting was taking place at about 2:30 a.m., said Ghulam Sakhi, the Logar provincial police chief. Three U.S. soldiers and three Afghan soldiers were wounded in an exchange of fire with insurgents, who refused to surrender, prompting coalition forces to order the airstrike. Sakhi said 18 civilians were killed, in addition to12 peo-

ple whom he identified as Taliban. Dr. Abdul Wali Wakil, the head of the Logar provincial council, told McClatchy Newspapers that two men and two women were among the dead, as well as three teenagers whose ages he listed as13 to15. The rest he described as children — many of whom were 3 to 5 years old — who were members of the same family. In an earlier statement, coalition forces said only that a team that had visited the site after the airstrike "discovered two women who had sustained non-lifethreatening injuries" and that those women were transported to a coalition medical facility. Even if the 18 civilian deaths at Logar aren’t confirmed, the attack at Kandahar made Wednesday the bloodiest day in Afghanistan since a suicide bomber struck a Shiite Muslim shrine at Kabul in December, killing 84 civilians and wounding as many as 200.

Suit over Marcellus Shale law in hands of judges Municipalities object to requirements that drilling, waste pits and pipelines be allowed in every zoning district. By MARC LEVY Associated Press

HARRISBURG — A constitutional challenge by seven municipalities to Pennsylvania’s new law regulating the growth of natural gas exploration is in the hands of seven Commonwealth Court judges after a hearing Wednesday in which they repeatedly challenged lawyers from both sides in the closely watched case. The municipalities want the law overturned; the state wants the case thrown out. The judges also could ask for more evidence before making a final ruling or could strike down only parts of the law. Lawyers said they expect a ruling within several months.

The heart of the argument is the extent of the state’s power to tell municipalities where they must allow drilling-related activity, including rigs, waste pits, pipelines and the compressor and processing stations that help move gas from the underground Marcellus Shale formation in Pennsylvania to consumers across the northeastern United States. Among the objectionable provisions cited by the towns’ March 29 lawsuit are requirements that drilling, waste pits and pipelines be allowed in every zoning district, including residential districts, as long as operators observe certain buffers. At one point, President Judge Dan Pellegrini asked a lawyer representing the Department of Environmental Protection and the Public Utility Commission what would happen if the state passes similar laws for every industry it consid-

ers an economic engine. “If you make that argument, pretty soon zoning becomes irrational,” Pellegrini said. The 174-page law established the first major levies on the Marcellus Shale industry in Pennsylvania — allowing counties to set an impact fee on the booming industry — and toughened some environmental and safety laws. Republican Gov. Tom Corbett signed the law Feb. 14 after his staff negotiated the final version behind closed doors with leaders of the Republican-controlled Legislature. The panel of seven judges includes five Republicans and two Democrats. Judge Anne E. Covey asked a lawyer for the municipalities how he can argue that the state is infringing on the municipalities’ constitutional responsibility to protect its residents when the Legislature has the power to dictate the extent of those powers.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration is warning Syria that U.N. sanctions may be near, as Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton headed Wednesday to Turkey to talk strategy with America’s allies and look for a way to win Russia’s support for a transition plan ending the Assad regime. Russia and China, howev- Clinton er, who have blocked such sanctions before, issued a joint statement reiterating their opposition to any imposing of “regime change” in the violence-wracked country, where some 13,000 people have died in more than a year of uprisings against President Bashar Assad’s leadership and a brutal government crackdown on the opposition. The warning was delivered by Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner, who called for the world to exert “maximum financial pressure” on Assad’s government. He argued that “strong sanctions can help hasten the day the Assad regime relinquishes power,” but acknowledged that financial and diplomatic penalties alone cannot bring the needed political change. In remarks Geithner planned to deliver to a Friends of Syria group, he said that unless Syria demonstrates “meaningful compliance” with U.N. efforts to end the violence, the U.S. and other countries will “soon join in taking appropriate actions against the Syrian regime, including, if necessary, Chapter 7 action in the U.N. Security Council.” A Chapter 7 resolution authorizes actions that can ultimately include the use of military force, which administration officials — for now — are playing down as a possibility. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Hu Jintao wrapped up a summit and issued a statement essentially saying “no dice” to U.N. sanctions.

WILKES-BARRE – Gus Genetti and his nephew, Thom Greco, are remodeling a downtown building, using $250,000 to transform a former garage into a wedding showroom. The building, located at North Pennsylvania Avenue and North Street, was formerly occupied by Penn Patio. Genetti and Greco will renovate the building into the Genetti/Oyster Wedding Showroom.

WILKES-BARRE – A Lackawanna County woman accused of being high on bath salts while driving with two children in the back seat of a vehicle was sentenced Wednesday to nine to 18 months in county prison. Michele Pace, 40, of Throop, was sentenced on one count of driving under the influence and two counts of reckless endangerment by Luzerne County Judge Tina Polachek Gartley. Pace also received one year probation. “Luckily, no one was killed,” Polachek Gartley told Pace. “Bath salts are deadly. They are one of the most terrorizing drugs.” According to court papers, a Wilkes-Barre detective observed a Chevrolet being driven aggressively in the area of Scott and Kidder streets on March 28, 2011. Police pursued the vehicle, and boxed it in a driveway on In court papers filed Friday, attorneys Shelley Centini, Edward Rymsza and David Lampman said Dr. Jonathan Mack had been in a severe car accident, and is “temporarily partially disabled.” The attorneys were awaiting a report from Mack to make any final decision on filing a notice of a mental health condition Selenski may suffer from.

George Avenue. Police said two children, a 1year-old and a 2-year-old, were in the vehicle and not secured in child safety seats. Pace and Donna Zilla, 42, appeared “highly euphoric, aggressive and agitated. They were unable to control simple body movements and when answering questions, both were flailing and talking quickly,” the criminal complaint says. Police said Zilla is the mother of the children who were in the car. Pace and Zilla told police they had snorted bath salts before they were stopped on George Avenue, according to police. Pace previously pleaded guilty to the charges in July 2011. Zilla, of Dunmore, pleaded guilty to charges of endangering the welfare of children and reckless endangerment in March and was sentenced in April to 11 to 23 months in county prison. She was immediately released on parole because she had already served her minimum sentence. Pace was ordered Wednesday to undergo drug-and-alcohol evaluations, submit to random drug testing and to complete 25 hours of community service. Polachek Gartley said Pace must report to the county prison on June 12 to begin serving her sentence. Pace’s attorney, John Donovan, said his client has been sober for a number of months and has reached all goals in a family service plan established by children and youth services in Lackawanna County. “She has straightened her life out quite a bit,” Donovan told Polachek Gartley.

WISCONSIN RECALL ELECTION

Views from Pa. on Wis. mixed

Area labor leaders, politicians differ on impact of Gov. Walker’s win in recall election. By JOHN ANISTRANSKI Times Leader Intern

To Pennsylvania GOP Press Secretary Valerie Caras, Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker’s victory in Tuesday’s recall election signals an impasse for the Pennsylvania labor movement. “A lot of the funds and support that the Democrats received were bankrolled by labor-affiliated groups,” Caras said, pointing specifically to the Pennsylvania State Education Association. “Those groups put their clout on the line and were resoundingly defeated.” She said Pennsylvania unions’ involvement in Wisconsin exposes them as another interest group concerned more with their own influence than with the welfare of their members. But John Holland, Northeast Region field director for PSEA, defended his organization and said his union is “fighting for all workers.” When unions bargain for better treatment, Holland said, they “lift everyone up by forcing other companies to offer a higher rate of pay.” Holland, who works out of PSEA’s Plains Township office,

GOP looking to capitalize on win By SAM HANANEL Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Gov. Scott Walker’s definitive victory in Wisconsin’s recall election is already reverberating in other state capitals. It exposed the shrunken political muscle of the unions that tried to oust him, underscoring their vulnerability to attacks from the right and inability to retaliate.

Republicans in some nearby states where anti-union measures failed this year say they now plan to use Walker’s victory to mount renewed efforts in 2013. Instead of ejecting the Republican who slashed state and local government workers’ job benefits and bargaining rights, the union-instigated recall has made Walker a heroic model for conservatives five months before the November election. Labor leaders maintain that the fight was worth it, that the massive protests against Walker

Labor unions suffer a highly embarrassing loss in a fight to retain influence.

“In Pennsylvania, we want to have realistic and smart reforms so that we can improve the jobs climate and solve the pensions crisis. These issues are interconnected with labor’s concerns and the concerns of conservatives,” Toohil added. Tea Party politician Laureen Cummings, an Old Forge congressional candidate, said she questions the premise that Pennsylvania’s public employees unions are fairly representing the interest of the region. She said public sector workers have “free reign with tax dollars,” making it easy for them to receive “raises and benefits packages at will.” Meanwhile, private sector workers have not seen raises and benefits since the recession’s onset — an occurrence that Cummings finds especially troubling for the working classes of Northeast Pennsylvania. United Steelworkers Local 15253 President Joe Padavan, of Bear Creek Township, is unfazed by GOP politicians’ attempt to differentiate between public and private employees. “I’m a taxpayer, too,” Padavan said. “But I think everyone deserves fair payment. I don’t believe in greed. I believe in fairness.” For Padavan, all unions are united in the goal of providing workers with fair pay and adequate benefits.

said he fears the possible impact of any Walker-inspired effort to “erode workers’ rights” in his home Toohil state. Roxanne Pauline, a labor organizer active in the WilkesBarre/Scranton area, agreed with Holland’s belief in local union groups. “Unions are the working class, and we built this country,” she said. Still, she does not find any lesson relevant to local union politics in the Wisconsin election. Local unions have to “keep moving forward and fighting their usual fight,” striving to create an “economy that celebrates hard work” for the working classes of Northeast Pennsylvania, she said. State Rep. Tarah Toohil, RButler Twp., does not see any local ties. “The climate between Gov. Walker and the unions in Wisconsin is very different from the climate in Pennsylvania,” Toohil said in an emailed statement. “The ending of collecting bargaining and subsequent recall election are unique to Wisconsin, so it is hard to make a comparison with Pennsylvania since politically we are not on the same page as Wisconsin and are not going in that direction.

A graduate of Tunkhannock High School, class of 1938, he excelled at both football and baseball, which remained his lifelong passions. In 1941, Buck married his high school sweetheart, Betty M. Crawford, who preceded him in death in 1999. He and Betty were married for 57 years. In addition to his wife, Buck was preceded in death by his sister, Ethel Howell. Buck was, first and foremost, a quintessential family man who was devoted to, and took great pride in, his family. This kind and gentle man will be sadly missed by his children, Richard and his wife, Clara Morrison; Robert Jr. and his wife, Carol Smith; Diane and her husband, David Wilson, all of Tunkhannock, and Theresa and her husband, Jim Lewis, Maineville, Ohio; grandchildren, Paul and Carol Ferguson, Narrowsburg, N.Y.; Scott and Theresa Ferguson, Vandling; Jared and Ilene Ferguson, Chester, N.J.; Erin and Richard Quanstrom, Lake Carey; Jeremy and Rayna Wilson, Mechanicsburg; Nathan Wilson and fiancé Katelyn Henderson, Conshohocken; Kelly and Todd Williams, West Chester, Ohio, and Jeffrey Lewis, St. Louis, Mo.

His service to the community included 16 years on the borough council, four years as mayor of Tunkhannock and 24 years as Wyoming County Jury Commissioner. In recognition of his many years of service, he received the Wyoming County Republican Party’s 11th Annual Annis Tyler Service Above Self Award in 2003. In addition to his elected offices, Robert volunteered his time to his

community in other capacities. He was a member of the Triton Hose Company since 1943, receiving a 48 year service award in 1991.

He was a 50-year member of Temple Lodge 248, Free and Accepted Masons. As a member of the Tunkhannock Endless Mountains Barbershop Quartet, Buck shared his love of music as well as his beautiful voice with the community. He was a faithful member of the Tunkhannock United Methodist Church, where he served on numerous committees. He was also instrumental in the planning and construction of the church’s education building. Friends may call from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday at the Harding-Litwin Funeral Home.

away peacefully on Tuesday evening, June 5, 2012, at Hospice Community Care, Inpatient Unit, Geisinger South Wilkes-Barre, surrounded by her loving family. Her beloved husband was the late Angelo M. Costello, who passed away on November 30, 2010. Together, Angelo and Pat shared 64 wonderful years of marriage. Born on September 4, 1923, in Swoyersville, Pat was a daughter of the late Joseph and Carmella (Cicero) Pappa. A lifelong resident of Swoyersville, Pat was a graduate of the former Swoyersville High School, class of 1941. Pat still remained friends with many of her high school classmates and she enjoyed going for lunch with her classmates until her illness prevented her from doing so. Following high school, Pat worked in the local garment industry, until her marriage to Angelo, when she settled into her roles of being a wife, homemaker, mother and grandmother. In her later years, Pat volunteered as a “Pink Lady” for 25 years at the former Mercy Hospital, Wilkes-Barre, and worked for nearly 10 years as a teacher’s aide for Dana Street Elementary School, Forty Fort. Throughout her marriage, Pat greatly enjoyed accompanying her beloved Angelo to many conventions for both the Lions Club and the PA Homebuilders Association. A woman of great faith, Pat was a member of Saint Barbara Parish, Saint Anthony of Padua Church, Exeter. Also, she was a longtime member of the Swoyersville Senior Citizens Club, serving in many capacities within the club. Pat enjoyed many things in life especially reading, working crossword and jigsaw puzzles and cooking and baking for her loved ones. Of all the loves Pat had in life, nothing could compare to the love she had for her two grandsons and she never failed to tell everyone of that fact. In return, her grandsons showed her the same love she gave them throughout their lives. In addition to her parents, Joseph

pany. After the war Welsh married Catherine “Kitty” Grogan and became a teacher and administrator for Wilkes-Barre Area School District, retiring in 1983. He was predeceased by a son; his wife died in 1998.Welsh was portrayed by Rick Warden in the HBO miniseries. Winters “was a humble, simple person thrust into a position of leadership in which he excelled,” said Suerth, who heads the association of former Easy Company vets, only 19 of whom survive. The statue was made near Boulder, Colo., and transported here, to a roadside between the village of Sainte-Marie-du-Mont and Utah Beach, distant but visible behind the statue. It was here that Winters and his small band of men dropped out of the sky soon after midnight on June 6, 1944, on a death-defying mission to destroy four German 105mm artillery guns that threatened the Allied invasion force. During the ceremony, World War II-era military aircraft flew overhead, including a U.S. artillery spotting plane just like those that would have darted through the skies on DDay. Master Sgt. Frank Barnett, 37, a paratrooper from Anniston, Ala., serving at the U.S. Air Force base in Ramstein, Germany, attended the ceremony with other members of the 435th Air Ground Operations Wing. Barnett and 18 colleagues had made the trip to Utah Beach to participate in a parachute jump over

matching up to 50 percent of the cost of exterior building improvements: Blackman Street, Carey Avenue, Coal Street, East Main Street, Hazle Avenue, Northampton Street, North Main Street, North Washington Street, River Street, Scott Street and South Main Street. Leighton said those streets were selected because they carry the most traffic moving though the city daily. Any city resident with an owner-occupied or rental property on those streets may apply for a grant, though grants will be limited to a single property per owner. The program will fund repairs to a minimum of 43 properties if each property owner receives a full $5,000 award. Eligible repairs include: • brick and stone masonry work, • repair or replacement of siding and exterior doors, • repair, replacement or restoration of storm windows, window sashes,sillsandhoods,decorative molding and door frames, • painting and associated work, • repair or refurbishment of exterior porches and steps, • installation of handicapped access ramps, thresholds and entrances only in conjunction with other work. Landscaping and roof repair are not eligible uses of grant funds. Grant applications may be picked up at the City Clerk’s Office or may be downloaded from the city’s website. The property owner must also submit two estimates from city licensed contractors, photographs and other supporting documents with the application. The city will begin accepting and reviewing applications on a first-come, firstconsidered basis on June 21 at 9 a.m. According to city Administrative Coordinator Drew McLaugh-

the same Normandy fields where Winters and his Easy Company landed soon on D-Day. The paratroopers, dressed in military fatigues, said they’ve all watched “Band of Brothers” “four or five times.” “It’s important for us on the airborne side to remember everything they did,” Barnett said. “They are the Greatest Generation.” The plan to erect the statue began 21⁄2 years ago, said Tim Gray, Chairman of the Rhode Island-based World War II Foundation, which initiated the project and helped raise the $100,000 it cost. The statue “is not a monument to one man, it’s a monument to many men and the lead-

ership they showed on D-Day,” Gray said — “all the divisions that fought on the beaches and hedgerows of Normandy on June 6, 1944.” Tens of thousands of Allied and German forces were killed in the D-Day invasion and ensuing Battle of Normandy. Frenchman Reny Rossey, 86, recalled accompanying a British unit in the invasion as part of the effort to liberate his country from the Nazi occupation. “Coming back home, for us, it was enormous. We had to do this job,” he said at a ceremony Wednesday at a British cemetery in Ranville.

According to the criminal complaints: A city police officer spotted a suspicious purple van, driven by Asia Henderson, in the area of South Franklin and Academy streets at about 11 p.m. The officer pursued the vehicle that drove through red traffic signals and stop signs on South Main, Hanover and Horton streets and Carey Avenue and the Sans Souci Parkway in Hanover Township. Kenneth Henderson aimed a gun at the pursuing officer on the Sans Souci Parkway, where Asia Henderson turned right onto Fellows Avenue, the criminal complaints say. Police allege Kenneth Henderson tossed the gun and magazine clips from the vehicle on Fellows Avenue. Police said the weapon was loaded with a round in its chamber. Preliminary hearings are scheduled for June 14 in Central Court.

Writer questions bishop on marriage remarks

read Bishop Joseph Bambera’s remarks when asked about the recent federal court’s ruling regarding the Defense of Marriage Act: “But as Catholics, we believe that the sacrament of marriage is a faithful, exclusive, lifelong, loving union of a man and a woman.” The bishop would seem to leave open the door for another understanding of marriage for those who are not Catholic and who do not wish to enter into a sacramental marriage. Is this true, Bishop Bambera? Ted Olson North Wales, Pa.

Rep. Mundy believes voter ID law unnecessary

Disappointing day I for digital media

HE JUDGE presiding over the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse trial came so close to making a huge advance in support of judicial transparency and First Amendment rights in a rapidly evolving digital media culture. Judge John Cleland had initially agreed to allow electronic communication during Sandusky’s trial, save for photographs and recording or broadcasting of any verbatim accounts, such as direct quotes. However, in response to subsequent news organization requests for clarification, Cleland rescinded his initial permission for electronic communications. That means no live-blogging, real-time tweeting or website updates by reporters while Sandusky’s trial is in session. Rule 53 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure prohibits “taking of photographs in the courtroom during judicial proceedings or the broadcasting of judicial proceedings from the courtroom.” A federal district EDITORIAL BOARD

court in Georgia ruled in 2009 that Rule 53 also applies to tweeting. But that ruling has no precedential effect on other courts, and it only applies to criminal proceedings in federal courts. Sandusky’s criminal trial is taking place in Centre County court in Bellefonte, and individual judges can set whatever rules they want. In an increasingly digitally oriented media landscape, some judges have allowed realtime dispatches during trials. It has happened successfully – and apparently without earth-shattering negative consequences – in federal and local courts in eight states including Pennsylvania. Eventually, everyone will be forced onto the digital media bus. Until courts establish a uniform, coherent policy that accounts for First Amendment freedoms in a digital world, it will be up to individual judges to chart the path forward.

LETTERS FROM READERS

feel compelled to respond to Jerry Schutz’s letter (“Voter is happy to provide ID,” May 6) in which he asserts that those who oppose the recently enacted voter photo ID law probably have an ulterior motive to perpetrate “fraud at the polls.” I am finding that many of my constituents do not understand why this new law is such a big deal. Let me explain why I voted against it. I agree with Mr. Schutz that the right to vote is one of the most precious rights we hold as Americans. I believe strongly in the concept of one person, one vote. If there were any evidence of voter impersonation that could justify the expenditure of millions of taxpayer dollars to administer this new law, I would be among the first to sign on to a solution. But there is no such evidence. During the many hours of debate on Act 18, there was no evidence of voter impersonation presented to justify forcing citizens to jump through additional hoops in order to exercise their constitutional right to vote. But there is evidence that hundreds of thousands of Pennsylvanians will not be able to vote under Act 18. The Brennan Center for Justice has reported that as many as 11 percent of eligible voters do not have the photo ID they will need to vote under this law. AARP estimates that about 1 in 5 seniors do not have the necessary identification. Many organizations, including the League of Women Voters, AARP and the County Commissioners Association of Pennsylvania, opposed Act 18. They realize that this bill has been mislabeled as a voter identification law while it is actually a voter suppression law that will deny many people their most fundamental right as American citizens. Many of us believe that it is no accident that those most affected will be the poor, the elderly and the dis-

abled – who tend to vote Democratic. Gov. Tom Corbett’s administration has said it will cost $4.3 million to implement Act 18, and there will be additional costs to defend the legislation in court. A judge in Wisconsin struck down that state’s voter identification law. And the U.S. Justice Department blocked South Carolina’s voter ID bill in December and also has stepped in to block Texas’ voter ID law. There are similar lawsuits pending in Pennsylvania. I understand that, until you know these facts, it is easy to assume that all American citizens have valid photo identifications. But that is simply not the case. Obtaining the proper ID will be time-consuming, costly and, for many, difficult. At a time when the majority in the House, Senate and Governor’s Office are proposing to cut funding for our frail elderly in nursing homes, individuals with disabilities and at-risk children, it is wasting millions of dollars to solve a problem that does not exist.

GOP committee member should get no credence

uch news has been made recently regarding the election of Steve Smith to the Luzerne County Republican Committee. Committee members can be influential in local politics and frequently find themselves in the same room with state senators and representatives, district attorneys, mayors, party nominees, movers and shakers, even members of Congress. Smith’s expedited path to access Republican officials is quite disturbing. However, it is really not the fault of the Republican Committee that he was elected. Without a candidate listed on the ballot who had gone through the petition process, write-in candidates for committee offices only need a minimal amount of support to win. He got a single vote: Smith obviously does not represent the Luzerne County Republican Party in any way, shape or form. I’m sure some of us have seen Smith’s letters to the editor in local newspapers, filled with pure hate, ranting against minorities and anyone else who doesn’t fit

into his twisted world view. In fact, I find his views abhorrent on a very deep and personal level. I don’t believe there is a mechanism for removing a committee person from either party, as they were voted on by the public and those results certified by the election board. However, there are ways to minimize him over the course of his term, so that his election will have a negligible impact. We sincerely hope that the Republicans find a way to quarantine any political ambitions Smith might have. No white supremacist should be anywhere near the inner workings of any party in Luzerne County. The Luzerne County Democrats have no intention to bring up Smith again because, frankly, his election isn’t merely a political embarrassment for the Republicans, it’s an embarrassment for the entire county. Speaking about him not only distracts us from real issues, it legitimizes him and gives him more attention, and frankly he is making other Republican committee persons across Luzerne County who work hard and care about their country and their communities look bad. We would rather speak on jobs and the economy, social justice and equal rights, and an America where everyone has a fair shot to succeed. So, don’t give Smith what he wants: This will be our first, last and only word on the subject. Casey Evans Spokesman, Luzerne County Democratic Committee Dallas

tax collection procedures mandated by Act. 32. The act requires most of the state’s 67 counties to have one tax collector for earned income taxes. Previously the tax was collected by tax collectors in each community. Centax was required to begin disbursing money it collected by April 30, but so far it has released only a small amount, said Pam Heard, secretary/treasurer of the Luzerne County Tax Collection Committee, the agency formed to administer the new tax collection program. That has placed a significant burden on school districts and communities, including Nanticoke, where she is the director of finance. “We only got $53,000. I was expecting $336,000,” Heard said. Heard said Nanticoke is fortunate in that it has a small “cushion” it can rely on. But if the proper amount isn’t received within the next two or three months, she said the city will likely have to take out a tax anticipation loan or it will not be able to meet payroll.

Eight of the 12 jurors and two of the four alternates have ties to Penn State. Some legal experts said jurors with Penn State connections might be inclined to come down hard on Sandusky, blaming him for Paterno’s firing and the damage to the school’s reputation. Or they might take their frustrations out on prosecutors for bringing the case in the first place. St. Vincent College law professor Bruce Antkowiak said the Penn State factor could cut both ways. “In one sense, you worry

LEMMOND Charles “Chuck” Lemmond said his father “made us all better people.” David Lemmond said his father set an example that was “solid.” Judy “Judo” Lemmond said her dad lived a remarkable life. “He sent me secret Valentines,” she said. “He could never pass up a chocolate treat. He loved late-night pizza. He found happiness with his family and he had a sense of humor many of you may not know about.” When going through her late father’s clothing, Judy said she found a rubber finger in a jacket pocket. “I asked my mom why he would have this,” she said. “We just shook our heads and laughed. That was dad.” George Lemmond, the senator’s younger brother, said, “Charlie was a tough act to follow.” “He is here,” he said. “Can you hear his trumpet playing?” Sen. Lemmond played first trumpet in the Harvard band. The Rev. Charles Gommer, who shared the pulpit with Pastor Robert Wood, said everybody has walked in the shadow of Charlie Lemmond. “He got things done and he did things right,” Gommer said. “God, how we will miss this Renaissance man – this man for all seasons.” Gommer said Lemmond was known for always introducing people. He said he hopes when he gets to the Pearly Gates Lemmond will be there waiting. “And he will say, ‘Jesus, I’d like to introduce you to my friend Chuck Gommer.’ ” Gommer quoted a Bible passage: “For as long as you remember me, I am never totally lost.” “Sen.

conversations. “There are some people for whom one life is not enough,” Wood said. “I’m not finished with Charlie Lemmond. There has to be more. Every conversation we had was, well, delightful.” Wood reminded the mourners they each have a bank of memories to draw from. “Death is still a thief,” he said. Looking at the family, he said, “You do not suffer alone.” Corbett said the service was a celebration of Lemmond’s life. “It’s a celebration of a great man who touched many people

across Pennsylvania,” the governor said as he left the church. “And he did it with compassion and intellect.” Cawley said there never was a more respected man than Lemmond who served in the state Senate. “He taught me many things,” he said. “He offered me courtesy, respect and kindness.” Meuser said Lemmond was everything that was said about him during the service. “I miss him already,” Meuser said. “I miss his wisdom, his kindness and his compassion.” Shawn Murphy, who served as

Lemmond’s district director and lived across the street from the senator, said her former boss was a “neighborhood guy.” She said her daughter, Katlyn Murphy-McCarthy, has many fond childhood memories of Lemmond. “He meant so much to us,” Murphy-McCarthy said. “He taught me how to use a butter knife and how to spell calendar.” Retired state Sen. Robert Jubelirer, of Altoona, served with Lemmond for many years in the Senate. “In our business, there are very few who don’t have any enemies, but Charlie is one,” he said. “I would have walked here if I had to.” Jubelirer said Lemmond was one of his closest friends who always had a smile on his face and always offered to help. “To use Charlie’s word, he was delightful,” he said.

several other municipal officials contacted Wednesday. In Kingston,AdministratorPaulKeating said the municipality received $88,000 but was expecting at least $300,000; Pittston Township received just $3,754 of the roughly $60,000 it was expecting; Plymouth Township got $19,500, but was expecting $54,500. The earned income tax is deducted directly from an employee’s paycheck by the employer. Part of the money goes to the municipality and part to the school district. Mundy, Heard and Keating said Centax has had trouble determining the exact locality in which each taxpayer resides, therefore it’s unsure of how much money to disburse to municipalities. Keating, who serves as finance chairman of the Tax Collection Committee, said each community and school district has a political subdivision code that is used to determine the locality in which each taxpayer lives. He said Centax apparently did not have the proper software installed to make that determination. “Centax dropped the ball. They did not properly staff and

integrate the proper software to collect the tax pursuant to the new system,” Keating said. In his email, Hill said the key issue has been the “bottleneck” Centax has encountered regarding electronic filings by employers, some of whom have remitted files in the wrong electronic format, as well as missing addresses, employer identification numbers and political subdivision codes. He noted some of the largest employers in Luzerne County have filed incorrectly. Hill said Centax must be able to identify and correct the withholding information errors and notify the employer. It is in the process of doing that, and expects to begin “closing the gap on anticipated collection within the next week.” Mundy said Centax, in a meeting last week, blamed the problem on municipal code information that was provided to it by the state Department of Community and Economic Development. “Apparently they were relying on DCED to provide them with 100 percent accurate codes, and they just can’t do that at the state level,” Mundy said. “This needs to be worked out at the local level by their administrative staff … It’s very unfortunate and should

have been addressed months ago by the contractor.” Mundy, state Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski, D-Wilkes-Barre, and state Rep. Karen Boback, R-Harveys Lake, were among several state and local officials who held a conference call last week with Centax, DCED, the Department of Revenue, Tax Collection Committee officials and others. The meeting was called, in part, to determine whether the problem with disbursement was caused by issues with Act 32 or Centax, Mundy said. Mundy and Pashinski said the consensus was the problem lies with Centax. They noted two other tax collection agencies, Berkheimer and Keystone Financial, that were hired to collect the tax in other counties have not had any issues. “We are not getting any complaints from the Berkheimer and Keystone clients, so you can draw your own conclusions,” Pashinski said. He said he and other state officials are monitoring the situation. “Centaxassuredthegroupthat they would move posthaste and, subject to the result of their offer, we’ll take action that’s appropriate after that point,” he said.

about, this guy was for many years of his life a hero of that community, an idol,” Antkowiak said, referring to Sandusky’s role as founder of an acclaimed charity for youngsters. “On the other hand, there’s also the consideration that there are people who believe this guy betrayed so much of what gave this institution and this area so much of the character and innocence that we love, that he has besmirched it in such a profound way.” On the list of potential witnesses, along with the young men who have accused Sandusky, are Paterno’s widow and son and assistant coach Mike McQueary, who said he saw Sandusky naked in a team shower with a boy more than a decade ago and reported it to Paterno. Paterno was fired in November for not acting more decisively against Sandusky. He died of lung cancer two months later at 85. On Wednesday, defense attor-

ney Joseph Amendola asked again for a delay in the trial, alleging that the judge’s gag order was violated by an ABC report that said the accuser identified in court papers as Victim 4 would be the first witness. Judge John Cleland denied the request. Amendola arrived with Sandusky at the courthouse in the morning and told reporters he was confident the nine jurors picked at that time would give them a “fair shake.” Lead prosecutor Joseph McGettigan said: “So far, so good.” In court, Sandusky, who has acknowledged he showered with boys but says he never molested them, quietly leafed through a binder with plastic-covered pages. During a break, he turned to two media representatives and asked with a chuckle, “What did you guys do to deserve me?” and “How did you guys get stuck with this?” Several prospective jurors showed up at the courthouse in

clothing with Penn State logos. And the web of Penn State connections was evident when a group of 40 potential jurors was questioned Wednesday. Ten indicated they worked at the university. Nineteen indicated they or a close family member had volunteered or contributed financially to Penn State. Fifteen said they knew someone on the prosecution’s witness list, while 20 knew someone on Sandusky’s defense list. Juror No. 12 has been a professor at Penn State for more than two decades and worked on a committee with university president Graham Spanier, who was ousted in the wake of the scandal. Jules Epstein, a criminal defense attorney and law professor at Widener University School of Law in Delaware, said the defense might try to use the Penn State-heavy jury to its advantage by calling people with strong ties to the university to vouch for Sandusky’s character.

WILKES-BARRE TWP. – Shoppers will have another outdoor venue to visit when the Mohegan Sun Arena hosts its Summer Marketplace. On Tuesdays from June 19 to Sept. 4, a variety of vendors will sell their wares from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the VIP parking lot, outside the west entrance, said Stephen Poremba, the arena’s director of marketing. “We have some lined up,” Poremba said on Wednesday. The market will feature locally grown fresh produce, jewelry, baked goods, novelty items, collectibles and other items. Already, between 40 and 50 vendors have shown an interest. Poremba said he expects more to be added after the market starts. The market will take place rain or shine and vendors have been asked to prepare for the weather, Poremba said.

He said the financing agreement could close in the next few months and “we wanted to be ready to pull the trigger once we did.” Merle Mackin, executive director of the Luzerne County Convention and Visitors’ Bureau, called the news “wonderful.” “We’ve been waiting for that from them, and it took a little bit longer that they had hoped but this is good news,” Mackin said. Approvals in hand The casino has all of its zoning and building approvals from previous public hearings and was waiting to move forward on groundbreaking permits until the financing situation was sorted out. “We have a much greater confidence we’ll be able to close on that financing soon,” Soper said, giving the reason the casino is moving forward with the permitting process. That’s thanks, in large part, to a debt refinancing completed in March by The Mohegan Tribal Gaming Authority, the owner and operator of Mohegan

But the building permit request must be reviewed before any building permits could be issued. If the review shows no issues, the permit will be authorized and the casino would have 180 days to break ground, O’Boyle said. Welcome news Plains Township Commissioner Ron Filippini welcomed the news, saying he’s “happy they’re finally getting to the next phase of the project.” He said more hotel rooms means more jobs, more payroll taxes, more room tax and more property taxes for the township, county and school district. To Mackin, the hotel is a plus, especially for big tourism weekends such as the upcoming NASCAR race weekend at Pocono Raceway in Long Pond, but the convention center is the prized jewel in the project. “We’ve been somewhat limited with the size of our properties,” Mackin noted, saying that to have convention space, with hotel rooms and the casino and amenities on premises will be a big benefit for the area.

Resilience has been Spartans’ trademark

Burton expects improved racing

Valley West hopes to continue trend in quarterfinals vs. Hatboro-Horsham. By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com

If they had the choice, the Spartans might draw it up differently. But the resilience has impressed coach John Milius. “Very encouraging,” Milius said. “Not that I had any doubts. This team just won’t roll over. At least, that’s the way I observe it. “Hopefully they don’t roll over, but it’s possible. You get taken out of your element and then you don’t believe in yourself. Right now they’re believing in themselves, and they can play with anybody. That’s the difference.” Today’s opponent in the state tournament has a similar story. Hatboro-Horsham has played five postseason games and needed to rally in four of them, including in the first round of states earlier this week.

Devils avoid elimination with late goals

By GREG BEACHAM AP Sports Writer

LOS ANGELES — Adam Henrique scored the tiebreaking goal with 4:29 to play, Martin Brodeur made 21 saves, and the New Jersey Devils beat the Los Angeles Kings 3-1 on Wednesday night to avoid a sweep in the Stanley Cup finals. Patrik Elias and Ilya Kovalchuk also scored third-period goals for the Eastern Conference champion Devils, who forced the NHL to put the Stanley Cup back in its crate for another cross-country trip. Game 5 is Saturday night in Newark, N.J.

DEVILS

KINGS

The Kings have won all 10 of their road playoff games this spring and 12 straight overall — both NHL postseason records. But after never trailing in the Stanley Cup finals, the Kings never led in Game 4. After two tense, scoreless periods in front of fans hoping to see the Kings win their first title in their 45-year history, Elias scored on a rebound with 12:04 to play. Drew Doughty scored a tying powerplay goal for the Kings 1:02 later, but Henrique scored on a slick pass from

“It’s a tough situation, but we live another day,” Brodeur said. “We wanted to at least have one more game in our building for our fans. Hopefully, we’ll make the best of it and come back here.” See CUP, Page 4B

PIAA 2A SOFTBALL

Nanticoke adjusting to rigors of state tournament By JOHN MEDEIROS jmedeiros@timesleader.com

Softball is often looked at solely as a game of pitching and bunting, but you better believe it is also about coaching and adjustments. Just look at Nanticoke and the latter points are evident. The Trojanettes (22-3) faced Pine Grove’s Ethel Santai in their first-round game Monday. Santai, who had allowed12 earned runs and struck out 312 batters this season, was unhittable the first time through the Nanticoke order. Nanticoke’s first nine batters went 0for-7 against Santai, who fanned four of the first seven she faced. Pine Grove had a lead and appeared to be cruising right along to-

ward eliminating the District 2 champions. The Trojanettes are a team built on plate awareness. They have just three players who have struck out more than eight times all seaGow son. They stood in against Santai and watched as low strikes were called and the outside corner had a little extra distance from the inside corner. It was a consistent strike zone, though, which allowed the senior-laden squad to adjust. “We had worked with them in practice See NANTICOKE, Page 4B

Redeemer is eager to advance

UP NEXT PIAA Class 2A second round Nanticoke vs. Kutztown Noon today, Patriots Park, Allentown Directions to Patriots Park: Take I-476 South (Northeast Extension) to Exit 56. After exit toll, merge onto US-22 East toward I-78 East/PA-309/Allentown. Go 4 miles and take exit toward 15th Street. At end of ramp, keep right, then turn right onto Mauch Chunk Road. Go about three blocks to split in road and bear right onto N. 15th Street. Go just more than 2 miles and turn left onto Wyoming Street. Go five blocks and turn left onto South Lynn Street. Go two blocks and turn right onto St. John Street. Field will be on right.

game-winning single in the bottom of the seventh inning sent the Holy Redeemer Royals into the state quarterfinals today. But they don’t get there without Will Cavanaugh in the top of the last inning. Because what Cavanaugh did to keep Tuesday’s PIAA Class 2A state opener at 2-2 when the roof was about to cave in on the Royals meant every bit as much to Redeemer as Eric Ringsdorf’s walk-off RBI blast moments later. Maybe more. “Whenever he pitches like that, we always get a lift,” Ringsdorf said of his unflappable teammate. Cavanaugh had to do some heavy lifting to pull the Royals out of deep danger against South Williamsport. He came on in relief, straight over from playing third base, to start the seventh inning and immediately walked the first man he faced. “It takes me a couple batters to get in there and settle down,” Cavanaugh, Redeemer’s regular closer, said. What happened next was a little unsettling to even the most trusting Royals fans. A sacrifice bunt and an intentional walk put two South Williamsport runners on. Then Cavanaugh thought he had the groundball he needed to record a double play and get out of the inning, only to watch it turn into an error. Suddenly, South Williamsport had the bases loaded, just one out. “It did not look good,” Ringsdorf said. It looked just fine to Cavanaugh. He came through with a big strikeout for the second out, then escaped the jam unscathed by inducing a shallow fly to left field as excitement erupted from Holy Redeemer’s dugout. Four Royals batters later, the game was over as soon as Ringsdorf connected on his booming single. “That’s typical Will,” Holy Redeemer coach Chris Ritsick said. “He doesn’t always make it easy.” Cavanaugh just made his Houdini act appear to be trouble-free. “I’ve been in that situation a lot this year,” said Cavanaugh, explaining he doesn’t have many saves because he usually takes the mound near the end of tie games. “I’ve had tense opportunities a lot. And I tried to keep my composure to make pitches.” This time was different for him, though. This time, another loss for the 10-10 Royals would have meant the end of their season. “It’s the state tournament,” Cavanaugh said, “so it’s obviously going to be higher stakes.” He found success by keeping his anxiety levels low, even when everyone around him seemed to holding their breath. “It seemed like we were in big trouble,” Cavanaugh said. “To get out of that still tied motivates my teammates.” It sure put a little more life into Holy Redeemer’s hitters. “Whenever he pitches like that,” Ringsdorf said, “we always get a lift.” You might say it carried Redeemer to another day. “To get out of bases loaded, one out and come out with (allowing) nothing, it’s a great feeling,” Ritsick said. “Great momentum.” It provided the Royals with just enough steam to rally past the opening state round and into today’s quarterfinals. The big hit put Holy Redeemer there. Sometimes, the one the other team doesn’t get is worth just as much. Paul Sokoloski is a Times Leader sports columnist.

SWB Yanks victorious over Bulls The Times Leader staff

DURHAM, N.C – Last month, Lance Pendleton pitched against his former Scranton/WilkesBarre teammates and pitched five solid innings of a no-decision. On Wednesday, the right-hander didn’t fare as well against the Yankees, allowing five runs and nine hits in 5 2⁄3 innings of a 9-4 loss at Durham Bulls Athletic Park. Russell Branyan, who homered twice during Tuesday’s win, went deep again on Wednesday to start the scoring for the Yankees in the second inning and give them a 1-0 lead. SWB held a 3-0 lead before the Bulls got on the board with a run in the bottom of the fourth. But a 3-1 deficit was the closest Durham would get during the contest. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre got that run and another back in the next half inning on a two-run single by Francisco Cervelli to push the lead to 5-1. Brandon Laird belted his third home run of the season in the top of the seventh for SWB as he helped increase the lead to 7-1. A pair of sacrifice flies in the home half of the seventh from Durham pulled the Bulls within four runs at 7-3. And again, the Yankees answered those two runs with two more in the next half. This time, Ramiro Pena knocked in Chris Dickerson with a double and Branyan netted an RBI single to score Pena. Dickerson, who was reinstated from the disabled list and seeing his first action since April, was a big help for SWB as he went 1for-3 and scored two runs. The Yankees banged out13 hits with all but one starter lacing at least one hit. Ronier Mustelier led the way for the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre with a 3-for-5 performance. Branyan, Laird and Jack Cust each had a two-hit game in the victory. Ramon Ortiz picked up his fourth straight win improving his record to 4-3 after going seven innings and only allowing six hits, three runs and one walk. Yankees 9, Bulls 4

ROYALS Continued from Page 1B

need some more of that late magic in the state quarterfinals. Their opponent, District 3 champ Brandywine Heights, has been to the state tournament four times in the past decade, winning it all in 2009. First pitch in the PIAA Class 2A tournament game is set for 7 p.m. at Walter Stump Stadium in Pine Grove. In their first three trips to states under coach Chris Cole, the Bullets reached at least the semifinals each time. Senior catcher Kevin Sell started for the 2009 title team as a freshman. While this territory is more familiar for Brandywine, the Royals have plenty of experience of their own. With eight seniors set to play in tonight’s game, many of whom have played in multiple district finals, Redeemer also has a roster used to playing in high-pressure situations. “Yeah, we had a great attitude coming into districts,” Ritsick said. “They’re still focused. The experience of the last two years has paid off for them with the run this year. … There’s great leadership on this team.” Ritsick, who has coached the Royals in all five seasons of their existence and also headed program predecessor Bishop Hoban for three years before that, said that this year’s team has made things much easier on him. Helping matters for today’s game is the improved health of likely starting pitcher Cody Tsevdos. The senior injured his throwing hand in the district semifinals and was a question mark to start in the championship game. Tsevdos ended up going the distance for the win but was unable to bat. That changed in Tuesday’s game against South Williamsport, and Tsevdos is expected to be full-go once again to face the Bullets. “He’s felt great,” Ritsick said. “He’s excited and ready to come off of that good performance and get back out on the mound.” Brandywine Heights, meanwhile, will go with sophomore Michael Hunter, who enters the game with 84 strikeouts in 542⁄3 innings. Hunter pitched all nine innings for the Bullets in the D3 championship, striking out 13 and allowing just four hits for

the win. The Bullets’ PIAA opener had decidedly less drama than Redeemer’s, as they cruised past Nueva Esperanza 9-1. In four postseason games, Brandywine has allowed just two total runs. Given that, the Royals are looking for more discipline at the plate from his hitters tonight. “Just have some better atbats, better approaches at the plate,” Ritsick said. “When you’re facing pitchers you haven’t seen all season, you want to make them throw so you can get a feel for them.”

We had them move back in the box and work at shortening up their swings because they needed more time to see the ball.” While the adjustments started to show up in the third inning, it was leadoff batter Sammy Gow who made the most pronounced changes in the batter’s box.

Thunder top Spurs, await finals foe By JEFF LATZKE AP Sports Writer

OKLAHOMA CITY — Kevin Durant had 34 points and 14 rebounds while playing all of regulation for the first time all season, and the Oklahoma City Thunder claimed a spot in the NBA finals by beating the San Antonio Spurs 107-99 on Wednesday night. Russell Westbrook added 25 points for the Thunder, who trailed Game 6 of the Western Conference finals by 18 in the first half and erased a 15-point halftime deficit before pulling ahead to stay in the fourth.

David Clarkson, and Kovalchuk added an empty-netter that sent fans streaming forlornly out into a warm evening in Southern California. Jonathan Quick stopped 21 shots for the Kings, but lost his streak of nearly 139 shutout minutes right when he probably could have wrapped up the Conn Smythe Trophy as playoff MVP. With a golden chance for a Hockeywood ending, Los Angeles dropped to 15-3 in its spectacular postseason run, failing to win the franchise’s first championship on its first try — and in its 200th playoff game — in front of the longsuffering fans who have never seen the Stanley Cup. Los Angeles set an NHL record by taking a 3-0 lead in all four of its playoff series, but failed three times to close out its opponents in Game 4. Vancouver and Phoenix also won Game 4 before losing Game 5. The Devils became just the sixth of 26 teams in finals history to force a Game 5 after falling behind 0-3. Only the 1942 Toronto Maple Leafs ever rallied with four straight wins in the finals, and only three teams in NHL history have done it in any playoff round. After a tight-checking game between two very tight teams, While Nanticoke has won its last five state tournament games, Kutztown (20-5) won its first state tournament game in a decade. The Cougars won the 2002 Class 2A title, then waited 10 years to win another district title. In the interim, Kutztown was unable to make a dent in the tourney despite qualifying as recently as 2010. The Cougars have eight seniors on the roster, with multisport athlete Anna Behm among the team’s leaders. The shortstop is the team leader offensively and in the field for first-year coach Kevin Conrad. The entire Kutztown squad is

UP NEXT EASTERN CONFERENCE FINALS GAME 6 Miami Heat at Boston Celtics 8:30 p.m. today, ESPN

Durant grabbed the final rebound, dribbled the ball across halfcourt and raised his right fist to celebrate with a sold-out crowd. The franchise will play for the NBA title for the first time since 1996, before relocating from Seattle. Tony Parker had 29 points and 12 rebounds for San Antonio. Elias’ rebound goal put a hush over Staples Center. Six seconds after Clarkson went off with a questionable boarding penalty, Mike Richards passed Anze Kopitar’s faceoff win to Doughty, who rocketed a long shot past Brodeur for the fourth goal of his breakthrough postseason. But after so many minutes of tight defense, New Jersey won it with a stunning goal in transition: Former Kings forward Alexei Ponikarovsky got the puck to Clarkson, who found Henrique across the ice for his first goal since ending the Eastern Conference finals with an overtime goal. The Kings opened their first Stanley Cup finals in 19 years with two tense overtime victories in New Jersey, surviving largely on the brilliance of Quick. Los Angeles then returned home and routed the Devils 4-0 in Game 3 on Monday night, setting the stage for their coronation. But the Devils got into the details, and the Kings must regroup. No surprise given the tremendous stakes, both teams were nervous and jumpy from the opening faceoff in Game 4. Quick got plenty of work early when the Devils got two power plays in the opening minutes, but he made a slick glove save on Petr Sykora’s shot in the slot and later scrambled to cover Zach Parise’s unobstructed rebound chance. dangerous offensively, as the team has scored 223 runs this season (Nanticoke scored 210 runs). The Cougars scored in double figures 12 times, but were also shut out twice and only played one one-run game. Meghan Donat and Jodi Weaknecht can take turns either pitching or playing third base for Kutztown. The winner of Thursday’s game at Patriots Park in Allentown gets either battle-tested Christopher Dock, a state semifinalist last year out of District1, or Warrior Run, the upstart District 4 champion, in the state semifinals Monday.

I thought they were very disciplined at the plate, very selective. … We’ve just got to discipline ourselves and know the strike zone. Go with the pitch like we’ve been doing. “Bottle this and stay with it.” Hatboro-Horsham, the third seed out of District 1, upended D11 champion Nazareth 5-4 on Tuesday in the first round.

ROGER CLEMENS TRIAL

Wife contradicts McNamee’s testimony By JOSEPH WHITE AP Sports Writer

Coughlin gets extension

WASHINGTON — Wearing a blue floral print dress, Eileen McNamee presented herself as a soft-spoken firstgrade schoolteacher who never nagged her now-estranged husband about Roger Clemens. She went on to contradict the government’s key witness many times — and even came up with a different brand of beer to associate with the crucial evidence in the perjury trial of the former pitcher. On a day in which the judge lost his temper twice with Clemens’ lawyers, the defense turned Wednesday to the soon-to-be-ex-wife of Brian McNamee. This was the woman who McNamee testified harangued him with the words “You’re going to go down! You’re going to go down! You’re going to go down!” — pestering him until he saved medical waste from an alleged steroids injection

of Clemens so that he wouldn’t be the fall guy in any sort of drugs investigation. She says she never said anything of the sort. She said McNamee didn’t tell her back then that he was injecting Clemens, and that she wasn’t especially bothered by the extended time her husband spent away from home working with the seven-time Cy Young Award winner. Brian McNamee said the days apart had become a source of friction in the marriage. “I probably complained once in a while,” Eileen McNamee said. “But I did not fuss about it.” Clemens is charged with lying when he told Congress in 2008 that he never used steroids or human growth hormone. Brian McNamee is the only witness to claim firsthand knowledge of Clemens using those substances. He testified last month that he injected

Clemens in 1998, 2000 and 2001 and saved the needle and other waste from a 2001 injection. He said he put some of it in a Miller Lite can to bring home because his wife was giving him a “hard time every single day.” In testimony that sometimes sounded more like divorce court than criminal court — the couple are undergoing contentious divorce proceedings in New York — Eileen McNamee spun a narrative that could give the jury more pause when evaluating Brian McNamee’s credibility. Among the other differences in their stories: — Brian McNamee testified that he showed his wife the needles and other waste from the injection as soon as he got home that night, and that she played a role in putting them — along with beer can — in a FedEx box. Eileen McNamee said she wasn’t even aware

Halladay’s rehab on track

PHILADELPHIA — Roy Halladay is continuing his recovery from a shoulder injury as planned after a second opinion confirmed the original diagnosis for the Philadelphia Phillies’ ace right-hander. The two-time Cy Young Award winner is still expected to miss between six to eight weeks because of a strained latissimus dorsi muscle on the right side of his back. Halladay will be shut down for three weeks before he begins a throwing program. He went on the disabled list on May 29. Halladay was first evaluated by Phillies team physician Michael Ciccotti. He also sought a second opinion from Dr. David Altchek, the New York Mets’ team physician who specializes in shoulder injuries.

Orioles sign Moyer

BOSTON — The Baltimore Orioles signed 49-year-old left-hander Jamie Moyer to a minor-league deal Wednesday, and assigned him to Triple-A Norfolk. The Colorado Rockies released Moyer at the end of last month, a little over a month after he became the oldest pitcher to win as a starter. Moyer is expected to start for Norfolk on Saturday against Buffalo. On April 17, Moyer earned the win with the Rockies in a 5-3 victory over San Diego to become the oldest starter ever to win in the majors. CYCLING

Hagen wins Dauphine leg

LA CLAYETTE, France — Edvald Boasson Hagen of Norway led a sprint finish to win the third stage of the Criterium du Dauphine race, while Bradley Wiggins of Britain retained the overall lead. The 25-year-old Sky rider edged Germany’s Gerald Ciolek in second place and Borut Biozic of Slovenia in third after the 103-mile trek from Givors to La Clayette. Wiggins, the Sky team leader, kept the yellow jersey for a third straight day by finishing in the 140-rider pack that crossed in Hagen’s wake with the same time: 4 hours, 22 minutes, 13 seconds. The Dauphine is a warm-up race for the Tour de France.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — The oldest coach to win a Super Bowl will get at least three more shots at adding to his total. Tom Coughlin signed a two-year contract extension through the 2014 season on Wednesday with the New York Giants. The 65-year-old Coughlin, who led the team to its second Super Bowl under him in February, has coached the Giants since 2004. His contract was in its final year.

MILWAUKEE — The Milwaukee Brewers’ Ron Roenicke and the Chicago Cubs’ Dale Sveum both got to show some parental pride before their teams met on the field Wednesday: The managers’ sons were taken by their respective teams on the final day of Major League Baseball’s first-year player draft. The Brewers took Lance Roenicke, an outfielder from UC Santa Barbara, in the 25th round. Roenicke said his son is “fired up.” The Cubs took Rustin Sveum, an infielder who also did some pitching at Desert Mountain High School in Arizona, in the 39th round. Sveum said his son will go to college instead of turning professional, but was honored by the move.

MEMPHIS, Tenn. — Rory McIlroy tends not to play a tournament the week before a major. Then again, he tends not to miss three straight cuts. With his game in need of a tune up, McIlroy added the St. Jude Classic to his schedule to play a few more competitive rounds before the U.S. Open. He is among 29 players in Memphis getting ready for the Open by competing, even though no one has won a PGA Tour event and then the U.S. Open the following week. “I feel like that’s just what I need ... especially going into next week,” McIlroy said Wednesday after his pro-am practice round. “But I mean I would love to play well here and obviously try and win the tournament, and that would give me a great confidence boost going into next week.” McIlroy won The Honda Classic in March and lost in a playoff at Quail Hollow that returned him to No. 1 in the world. Then, he missed the cut in The Players Championship, the BMW PGA Championship in England and the Memorial. He hadn’t missed three consecutive cuts since August 2008 when he was ranked No. 164 in the world. After missing the cut last week at Memorial, McIlroy flew to San Francisco and spent four days at Olympic trying both to learn the course and find the form that helped him run away in winning the U.S. Open at Congressional a year ago. McIlroy called it a very productive time with his coach, Michael Bannon, learning the course and preparing for the Open. “Even though it wasn’t the way I wanted to spend the weekend, I still felt like I got a lot out of it,” McIlroy said. This will be McIlroy’s fourth straight tournament, and he has made the cut in five of his seven PGA Tour events this year, including four top three finishes. McIlroy showed Wednesday he hits the ball very well at times with three birdies and an eagle on the par-5 No. 16. Then he gave a glimpse of his struggles by hitting into the water on No. 18 for a double bogey. “The most important thing is that you see encouragement and you see glimpses of the great golf that you can play, the likes of the 16th hole today or the other holes I made good birdies and hit shots,” McIlroy said. “It’s just about eliminating the bad ones, and that’s just a matter of I think playing more golf and becoming more confident with what you’re trying to do.” The TPC Southwind course is nothing like The Olympic Club, though this course has played much tougher since changes cut par to 70 here in 2007. This course ranked as the PGA Tour’s ninthhardest in 2011. The field features Harrison Frazar defending his lone career win along with Ryder Cup captain Davis Love III, David Toms — a two-time champ here — and former champ Justin Leonard. Ryo Ishikawa of Japan and Dustin Johnson also are making their first start at this event.

NEW YORK — I’ll Have Another will begin his bid to win the Triple Crown by breaking from the No. 11 post in the Belmont Stakes. The Kentucky Derby and Preakness winner was made the 4-5 early favorite for Saturday’s race. “We’re going to see how the pace sets up,” trainer Doug O’Neill said Wednesday. “If they’re crawling, hopefully we’ll be leading the crawl and if they’re flying, hopefully we’ll be sitting in behind the horses flying.” Just two Belmont winners have come out of the No. 11 post since 1905. I’ll Have Another bucked history in the Derby as the first horse to win from the 19th post. Dullahan was the 5-1 second choice and drew post No. 5. The colt finished third in the Kentucky Derby and sat out the Preakness. “Five is as good as any,” trainer Dale Romans said. “It doesn’t matter going a mile and a half with my horse. I didn’t want to be down on the rail or way outside.” Union Rags was the third betting choice at 6-1 and will break from post No. 3. The colt was bumped at the start by Dullahan in the Derby and rallied from 17th to finish seventh. He also skipped the Preakness to prepare for the 1 1-2-mile Belmont. Paynter is the fourth be-

NEW YORK — Belmont racetrack workers have struck a tentative labor deal with the New York Racing Association to head off a possible strike on the eve of a Triple Crown bid, a union official said Wednesday. Vincent McElroen, financial secretary for Local 3 of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, said he didn’t have specifics of the pact but that 80 maintenance workers and starters will be working Saturday. I’ll Have Another will try to become the 12th horse to win all three legs of the Triple Crown: The Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont Stakes. It’s been 34 years since Affirmed became the last to capture the crown. “We have a tentative agreement,” McElroen said. “The race will go on with normal starters and normal maintenance crew represented by Local 3.” A NYRA spokesman didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment. The workers at Belmont, Aqueduct and Saratoga tracks have been without a contract since February 2011. A mediator was called in to try to settle the dispute. NYRA has weathered years of scandal and government investigations. Last month, its president was fired and the state took over its board.

Almagro said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But he was at such a high level.â&#x20AC;? As he always is at Roland Garros. This year, though, Nadalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s level has been even higher than usual. Not only has he won all 15 sets heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s played, but get this: Nadal has won 60 of his 61 service games so far, 54 in a row since getting broken in the second set of his first-round victory over Simone Bolelli of Italy. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s saved 16 of 17 break points, including going 4 for 4 against Almagro. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d not lost any set and not lost my serve, it would have been

PARIS â&#x20AC;&#x201D; It was about time Rafael Nadal faced some sort of test at the French Open. Not that this one lasted all that long or was all that taxing. Still, after dropping a total of 19 games through his first four matches â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the fewest at Roland Garros in 30 years â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Nadal finally found himself in an even-ascan-be set at the outset of his quarterfinal against 12th-seeded Nicolas Almagro. While Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer have been forced to come back from two-set deficits in Paris, this qualified as a tight spot for Nadal. They went to a tiebreaker, and when Almagroâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backhand return of a 121 mph serve landed out to cede the set, Nadal leaned forward and yelled, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come on!â&#x20AC;? Maybe it signaled excitement. Perhaps relief. This much was clear, in case anyone harbored any doubt: Nadal can summon his best play when he needs it. Moving closer to a record seventh French Open championship, Nadal reached the semifinals by beating Almagro 7-6 (4), 6-2, 6-3 to improve to 50-1 at the clay-court Grand Slam tournament. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I played well. I applied my strategy. I tried to do my best,â&#x20AC;?

two French Open semifinalists were at least that old since Laver and Ken Rosewall in 1969. It hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happened at any Grand Slam tournament since Andre Agassi and Wayne Ferreira were in the final four at the 2003 Australian Open. Against Murray, Ferrer was the picture of perpetual motion, chasing down shots to extend points time after time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He is so solid, so consistent,â&#x20AC;? Murray said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;that if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not converting your opportunities, it turns to many long games, and then the pressure can build on your serve.â&#x20AC;? He was speaking about Ferrer, but might as well have been discussing Nadal. For that 62-minute first set against Almagro, Nadal could have been forgiven for thinking he was looking into a mirror, facing a right-handed version of himself. Almagro hit the ball as hard as Nadal does, with as much spin, and covered the same amount of ground, getting nearly everything back.

The solution has never been easier!

Dow soars on hopes of Euro help

B R I E F

Regulator: Risk controls weak at JPMorgan Chase A top federal regulator says JPMorgan Chase had weak controls in place to contain risk in its investment division that suffered a $2 billion-plus trading loss. U.S. Comptroller of the Currency Thomas Curry told a Senate panel on Wednesday that the nation’s largest bank began reducing the amount of hedging it was doing to minimize potential losses at the end of 2011. Curry’s agency is examining JPMorgan’s riskcontainment policies in the weeks before it suffered the trading loss this spring.

By MATTHEW CRAFT AP Business Writer

NEW YORK — With a rally that gathered force as the day went on, the Dow Jones industrial average Wednesday had its best day this year. The big jump follows weeks of losses. Hope that European officials would find ways to ease the region’s debt crisis helped launch the rally. News reports said Germany and European Union officials were considering a plan to lend money from the European bailout fund to help rescue Spain’s hobbled banks. Jeff Kleintop, chief market strategist at LPL Financial, said the market appeared to be turning on rumors and speculation. But the chatter was enough to convince some traders that the worst was over for now. As of Monday, worries about Greece and Spain had pulled the Standard & Poor’s 500 index down nearly 10 percent from its peak in early April. “The next 10 percent move is not down, it’s up,” Kleintop said. A speech by a Federal Reserve official added to speculation that the Fed may take more steps to bolster the U.S. economic recovery. Dennis Lockhart, president of the Fed’s Atlanta regional bank, says weak job growth over the past two months highlighted the “halting and tenuous” recovery. If the trend continues, “further monetary actions to support the recovery will certainly need to be considered,” he said. The gains were spread across the market. Only 11 companies in the S&P 500 dropped, and every industry group in the index rose, led by energy and financial companies. Roughly seven stocks rose for every one that fell on the New York Stock Exchange.

LinkedIn passwords stolen Business social network LinkedIn is confirming reports that some of its users’ passwords have been stolen and leaked onto the Internet. The company said in a blog post Wednesday that some of the more than 6 million passwords that were compromised correspond to LinkedIn accounts. It did not say how many. LinkedIn has a lot of information on its more than 160 million members.

Facebook costs Nasdaq The Nasdaq stock exchange said Wednesday that it plans to hand out $40 million in cash and credit to reimburse investment firms that got ensnared by technical problems with trading Facebook stock. FINRA, the financial industry’s selfregulatory group, will review claims for compensation. Facebook went public May 18 amid great fanfare. But computer glitches at the Nasdaq plagued the day. Some investors have complained that the technical problems left them holding shares they didn’t want.

VIDEO GAMES have come so far in the past 20 years that it can be hard to recall exactly what they were like. Sure, we now have better graphics, more immersive experiences, faster machines, bigger and better displays, but I seem to recall having a lot more fun in the good ol’ days. At first I just thought it was the sepia-shaded filter of nostalgia clouding my vision, but then I realized there is something fundamentally different about the video games we play today: They’re more mainstream. In the ’90s, there were only a few games, like solitaire, that could be played on a casual basis. Consoles like the Nintendo and Sega had limited

Temarantz, of Kingston, began freestyle riding around the age of15 and continues to race and ride trails through Frances Slocum State Park in Kingston Township and Moon Lake Park in Plymouth Township, with his wife, Amy, and daughter, Brielle.

Although Friedman no longer bikes as often as he once did, he has participated in about 15 marathons and has always preferred road biking. “It’s a great way to enjoy the country roads,” he said. The shop had a soft opening a couple weeks ago. Friedman acknowledged it needs more advertising, but has noticed a positive response. He thinks people have taken to cycling as an alternative form of exercise just as he has. Temarantz said the shop’s main line is Giant Bicycles, manufacturer of popular brands such as Cannondale and Trek, which helps them cater to bikers of all ages, BMXers to performance riders. Future plans call for classes that will show bike enthusiasts how to get more out of their riding.

PLAINS TWP. -- A timeless proverb suggests if you do what you love, you’ll never work a day in your life. Rob Friedman has taken the saying to heart and teamed up with longtime friend Dave Temarantz to open a bicycle shop called Valley Cycle located next door to River Street Jazz Café in the River Street Commons complex. The partners are avid cyclists who have about four decades of biking between them. Friedman, owner of the complex, stands as the investor behind the shop, but shares the credit. “If I didn’t have the friendship with Dave I wouldn’t have done this on my own. You need an expert,” Friedman, of Dallas, explained. Temarantz is the man kneeling

The European Central Bank withheld the stimulus of an interest rate cut Wednesday, keeping up the pressure on eurozone politicians to act even as growth predictions worsened and fears intensified that Spain may need help bailing out its banks. The 23-member governing council left its benchmark refinancing rate unchanged at a record low 1.0 percent. ECB President Mario Draghi cited economic growth forecasts for a gradual recovery this year in justifying the decision.

TECH TALK NICK DELORENZO capabilities. Genres like “first-person shooter” and “space combat simulator” were still sorting themselves out. So the only people playing the “real” video games were dedicated gamers. They didn’t care that they had to learn a bunch of keyboard commands and buy special hardware, like a joystick or sound card. And the developers of those games knew that. They were designing their games for gamers. Then the developers started to make serious money and either became more corporate in structure, or were

Improving weather continues today with a generous supply of sunshine and low humidity. Temperatures high above the ground are still just cold enough to keep the lapse rate in temperature steep enough for scattered showers to form after 2 p.m. Warming aloft tomorrow will stabilize the atmosphere and instead skies will remain mostly sunny through the afternoon. Expect cloudiness to return on Saturday with a shower or thundershower possible. Sunday looks good; then for most of next week temperatures will trend above normal. - Tom Clark

Cheaters ought to beware By MARK MORRIS McClatchy Newspapers

By KIM ODE

Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

moticons — those jumbles of punctuation in an e-mail or text — might leave you scratching your head and feeling :-S . • Decoding them can be exercise in :-P . • Sometimes, it makes you want to break down and :’( . • For those moments, there is ChatSlang.com, a dictionary of sorts for emoticons, as well as chat slang, in which a few letters or numbers can convey far more than a simple FYI.

Per Christensson of Edina, Minn., started the site five years ago. While noting that there are similar sites, he said the parents’ checklist is especially useful for a mom or dad wondering if C9 is a new way of saying goodbye, given that their kid’s electronic conversations always seem to end when that’s typed. (Hel-lo. C9 means “parent in room.”) ChatSlang emerged from Christensson’s work with his other website, TechTerms.com, a dictionary of computer and

technology terms from Archie to Zone File. People were using abbreviations that he, hardly wizened at 31, struggled to understand. His puzzlement raises the question of how quickly a new term — say GUFN — becomes universally understood, at least among a texter’s peers. (Hel-lo. It means “grounded until further notice.”) “The younger generation picks up on things more quickly,” he said. “But the whole reaSee EMOTICONS, Page 2C

If that smartphone in your pocket or purse seems critical to your daily life, imagine how important it could be to your spouse’s divorce lawyer. Though small and sleek, the modern cell phone brims with information divorce lawyers and judges are eager to see, such as text messages, photographs, videos, email, Internet browser links, call histories, calendar entries and GPS tracking data. Add that to the golden triumvirate through which private misbehavior now becomes permanently public — Facebook, Twitter and YouTube postings — and lawyers practicing family law have more electronic means than ever to settle those timeless “he said, she said” arguments with devasThe survey found tating certainty. Consider the posthat text messsibilities: ages are the • Not bad-mouthing me to the kids? most common form of evidence Really?

So how did your iPhone “check in” on Facebook at this fancy restaurant in Boston? And who’s with you in that picture? In a recent survey of more than 800 divorce lawyers by the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers, 92 percent said they’ve seen more cases during the past three years using evidence taken from iPhones, Droids and other smartphones. Earlier surveys showed similar increases in family-law cases that included social media and email evidence, said Ken Altshuler, president of the academy. The survey found that text messages are the most common form of evidence taken from the phones, followed by emails, phone numbers, call histories and GPS and Internet search results. But ferreting out the details of an illicit relationship isn’t really the purpose of collecting electronic evidence, lawyers said. Rather, it’s all about the custody of two things that often are at the heart of family disputes: children and money. Anita Rodarte, a lawyer with a matrimonial practice in Kansas City, Mo., once represented a man who was fighting a demand from his ex-wife for additional maintenance payments. Her Facebook postings, however, revealed that she had been spending lavishly on a maintenance issue of her own: cosmetic surgery. “What about a spouse who is seeking See SMARTPHONES, Page 2C

support because they can’t find a job, and you look at the cell-phone bill and they’re spending all day long chatting on the phone?” Rodarte asked. Altshuler, who practices family law in Maine, said electronic evidence is particularly good at giving clues whether one party in a divorce case is selling assets or trying to hide assets. He once found a cryptic text message —

a couple of years before. During an appearance on a television reality show, the man had adamantly claimed the child wasn’t his. That video, and not the man’s testimony, decided the issue, O’Donnell said. “Lawyers know that if this (kind of evidence) gets in front of the judge there will be repercussions for the client,” O’Donnell said. Parties in a lawsuit generally are entitled to electronic evidence, and laying hands on it has become fairly routine, lawyers said. Estranged spouses generally can count on text messages

they’ve sent to each other to emerge if they’re material to the case. Children and spouses’ friends also are steady sources of electronic communications. And information from shared computers and telephone accounts also are fair game, lawyers said. Lawyers can request that people not destroy electronic evidence before the lawyers look at it. The impulsive nature of electronic communications — often visceral and sharp — can make it powerful evidence in a divorce case already infused with raw emotions, lawyers said. In the

light of calm reflection, even an idle threat looks far worse on a page with an evidence sticker attached. “It’s there, it’s in print and it’s hard to run away from,” Rodarte said. So how to avoid that moment? Lawyers advise never to write or text anything that you wouldn’t want a judge to read. “Criminal lawyers see the worst people acting their best,” Altshuler said. “Divorce lawyers see the best people acting their worst. Even the most sane people act crazy under extreme emotional pressure.”

Then in 1982, Scott Fahlman, a where emoticons are extremely professor at Carnegie Mellon useful, as funny as they are, or as University, became the first per- unprofessional as they can be,”

he said. “If you’re being sarcastic, you add a smiley face so people know you’re joking and not being a jerk.” ChatSlang’s entries come from submissions and Christensson’s own view of the tech world. He also runs a third site, FileInfo.com, a database of “file extensions with detailed information about the associated file types.” In English? When you get one of those files that won’t open, it of-

Christensson hesitates to call abbreviations or emoticons a language, “but then, I’m not some teenager texting all the time,” he said. “I’m actually kind of a stickler for grammar, so it’s ironic that I run a chat-slang website.” Still, he owns up to typing lmk without thinking twice, mean-

Potluck guest can’t stomach being assigned to bring a specific dish Dear Abby: My husband and I were invited to a dinner party at a couple’s home. We accepted the invitation with pleasure, only to be told afterward that it was going to be a “potluck.” My husband and I were raised to never go to someone’s home emptyhanded, so we were happy to bring a dish to contribute to the meal. When I called the hostess to ask if we could bring dessert or perhaps an appetizer, she informed me that the menu had already been planned and we were assigned a side dish neither of us had ever heard of. Then she told me she would email me the recipe. Abby, I was shocked and, frankly,

DEAR ABBY ADVICE offended. I would never tell a guest what to bring and what recipe to follow. When my husband told me he was willing to give the dish a try, I told him I would not attend a dinner party where I was commanded to bring a specific dish. My husband stayed home with me that evening, but says he can’t understand what the big deal was. Was I wrong to refuse? Or should I have gone along with the program? — Lost My Appetite Dear Lost: Having accepted the invitation you should have gone to the

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

dinner, taken the side dish and made the best of it. You may have missed out on a memorable and enjoyable evening. Dear Abby: I was in a passionate relationship for three years with my first real boyfriend. We were very young and desperately in love. I adored him completely, without hesitation. Then we had some irreconcilable differences and parted. I went though a period of selfreflection and didn’t date again for almost four years. During that period, I thought and prayed. Then I met someone special, “Zack.” We have been seeing each other for five years now, and our relationship is solid. It’s wonderful in every aspect — except that I am not in love with him.

CRYPTOQUOTE

We plan to be married in six months. I’m not sure if it’s the right thing to do though. I have hesitated for years despite pressure from my family. I enjoy spending time with Zack more than with anyone else. We understand each other and he knows me so well that it’s uncanny. We’re compatible with the same interests and similar beliefs. Zack knows that I love him but am not “in love” with him, but he still wants to marry me. Is it wrong to marry your best friend? — Unsure in California Dear Unsure: No, it’s not wrong to marry your best friend. But because you have reservations about marrying Zack, you should be honest and break

the engagement. It will be less painful for both of you and far cheaper than divorce. Good advice for everyone — teens to seniors — is in “The Anger in All of Us and How to Deal With It.” To order, send your name and mailing address, plus check or money order for $7 (U.S. funds) to: Dear Abby, Anger Booklet, P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Shipping and handling are included in the price.) To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, self-addressed 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). Sometimes other people’s drama is hard to distinguish from your own drama, especially when those “other people” are your loved ones. Unless someone really needs your protection, stay out of it. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Even if the only person you’re competing with is yourself, it’s still not a fair game because you’re never the same person two days in a row. Competition isn’t the point. Showing up consistently to do your best is what matters. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The voice inside you, frankly, can be a bit of a bully if not kept in check. You’ll be more aware of your mental self-talk, and through that awareness, you’ll tame this harsh influence. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’ve known true happiness before, and now you may feel like you’re chasing after it, powerless to bring it back. The answer is to stop chasing and start building. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your love of stories isn’t an indulgence; it’s a necessary part of your growth. A good book will suck you in, and you’ll never be quite out of it. It will become part of the way you see the world from now on. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Even if you wanted to, there are not enough hours in the day to reply to every call, letter, email and sales pitch that comes your way. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). If you’re in a hurry, the first thing to do is slow down. This will prevent you from making mistakes — and since you don’t have any time to lose, mistakes will be even more

costly. Go fast by going slow. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Strangely, taking on responsibility makes you feel lighter. The more people depend on you the less likely you are to give up. You gain strength and become capable of more. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). You’ve been thinking and planning long enough. It’s time to jump in. You probably don’t feel completely prepared, and no one ever does. Get in motion anyway. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Thomas Jefferson advised, “When angry, count to 10 before you speak. If very angry, a hundred.” When frustration levels rise, hit the pause button, and they will fall just as quickly. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Only you know what pleases you the most. This is a day to slide through that conduit to happiness instead of taking one for the team or compromising for the pleasure of others. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You have a feeling that you can help people, and you’re right. The first one you should help is you. Test out your methods, and see whether they work. Keep track of the results. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (June 7). You get to know yourself better this year and discover what you really want in life. The next six weeks are experimental, and a series of temporary situations helps you understand what your next move has to be. An unusual education begins in August. Aquarius and Sagittarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 30, 1, 24, 38 and 40.
