WHITELEY, Pa. — Fishermen are gearing up and hunters are taking aim — for Marcellus Shale gas drilling. A new coalition of outdoors groups is emerging as a potent force in the debate over natural gas drilling. The Sportsmen Alliance for Marcellus Conservation isn’t against the process of fracking for gas, but its members want to make sure the rush to cash in on the valuable resource doesn’t damage streams, forests, and the various creatures that call those places home.

The goal is to build a water quality database that identifies problem areas and makes that information available to the public. Worries are widespread Numbers suggest that many people share Dufalla’s concerns, in Pennsylvania and throughout the region. Two years ago his local chapter of the Izaak Walton League (a fishing group) had 19 members. Today there are 111. More than half a dozen existing outdoors groups are part of the Sportsmen Alliance, and collectively they have more than 60,000 members in the states that overlay the Marcellus. Numbers like that mean there’s an established grapevine to reach sportsmen and women, and the ties to national groups bring access to experts and funding. Members of the Sportsmen Alliance are scheduled to meet in July with Michael Krancer, the new secretary of the state Department of Environmental Protection, said Katy Dunlap, a spokeswoman for Trout Unlimited, a national fishing group based in Arlington, Va. “We are making specific requests with regards to Wilder-

The dead officers’ families were led from the courtroom by sheriff’s deputies and hugged many of the police lined up in the hallway as they left.

DETAILS WEEKLY LOTTERY SUMMARY

SPORTSMEN

Concerns about water Energy companies have identified major reserves of natural gas throughout the Marcellus Shale, which underlies much of New York and Pennsylvania, and parts of Maryland, Ohio and West Virginia. More than 3,300 wells have been drilled across Pennsylvania in just the last few years. The boom has raised concerns about the use of hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, a drilling technique in which water, sand and a small amount of chemicals are used to open gas-bearing shale formations deep underground. Already, preliminary water testing by sportsmen is showing consistently high levels of bromides and total dissolved solids in some streams near fracking operations, Dufalla said. Bromide is a salt that reacts with the chlorine disinfectants used by drinking water systems and creates trihalomethanes. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency says trihalomethanes can be harmful to people who drink water with elevated levels for many years. Dufalla stands alongside Whiteley Creek, a little mountain stream in Greene County. The grass is lush and the woods are green, but the water is cloudy and dead-looking. “It used to be a nice stream,” teeming with minnows, crawfish and other aquatic life, he said. No more, said Dufalla, a former deputy game and fish warden for Pennsylvania. He’s worried that nearby gas drilling has damaged the creek, either from improper discharges of waters used in fracking, or from

Zane Farmer filed documentation opposing the motion by defense attorneys to dismiss the suit. Although Skrepenak has not been charged criminally in connection with the PA Child Care detention center, the plaintiffs’ attorneys said he was one of two commissioners who approved the county’s $58 million lease of the center that figured prominently in the corruption probe resulting in charges against the developer and former co-owner Robert Powell, builder Mericle, and former judges Conahan and Mark Ciavarella. Skrepenak received a two-year sentence for his guilty plea in December 2009 to corrupt receipt of a reward for official action. He accepted a $5,000 reduction in closing costs on his home in Jenkins Township for helping a contractor get accepted into a tax forgiveness program. The juveniles’ attorneys included that plea and the meeting between Conahan and Mericle in a list of circumstantial evidence that they said showed Skrepe-

ness trout waters in Pennsylvania,” Dunlap said, such as additional review of proposed wells near such waters. Some areas may be too environmentally sensitive for drilling, and the Sportsmen Alliance is building a list of places that need special protection, Dunlap said. “Places that once you destroy, you can’t take back,” she said. Whether the drilling industry would accept additional limits in some areas remains to be seen. So many wildlife lovers have expressed concern over drilling that the Sportsmen Alliance has moved beyond relying on volunteers. Earlier this year Dave Sewak began working full-time across Pennsylvania, giving educational talks and training a network of volunteer water testers. “We support the energy development; we just want to see it done right the first time. I think hunters and fishermen are the original environmentalists,” said Sewak, a Windber, Pa. resident. He’s paid by Trout Unlimited. Seeking common ground There has been considerable public debate over how and if fracking impacts drinking water supplies, but Dufalla and other sportsmen are worried that even low concentrations of fracking chemicals may affect aquatic invertebrates — the tiny water bugs nak’s role in a bribery scheme surrounding the construction of the detention center and the placement of juveniles in it. Powell, who agreed to cooperate with federal authorities investigating the former judges, wore a concealed recording device during a meeting with Conahan and Ciavarella on July 30, 2008. While Ciavarella stepped away, Conahan told Powell of the meeting with Mericle. “I’m golfing with him one day at the CYC,” said Conahan. On a par five hole he shared a cart with Mericle who inquired about Powell. They engaged in small talk and Mericle said something that stuck with Conahan. “And he (Mericle) looks at me and goes, well, tell him (Powell) he has me to thank for him getting’ that lease,” said Conahan. Back in February before they asked to amend their suit a second time, attorney Timothy T. Myers of Blue Bell, who represents Skrepenak, the county and other county officials objected in a letter to U.S. District Judge A. Richard Caputo. The amended filing “alleges that former Commissioner Skrepenak received bribes from the developers of the juvenile facilities in exchange for his vote to

that grow into mayflies and stoneflies, which are in turn eaten by fish and birds. The sportsmen worry that a stream without bugs could quickly become a stream without fish, and then a valley with fewer birds, and so on up the food chain. There are signs that both the drilling industry and sportsmen are trying to find common ground. Patrick Creighton, a spokesman for the Marcellus Shale Coalition, a drilling industry business group, said his group has already met with numerous outdoors groups. “It’s a relationship that we’re building,” he said. They’re also working with local groups on a set of “best management practices.” Some pro-drilling outdoorsmen said that’s exactly the area that needs work. Part of the challenge for outdoorsmen and industry is that there isn’t much scientific information on how or if fracking impacts wildlife in the Marcellus Shale region. University of Pennsylvania biologist Margaret Brittingham is just starting such a project, with support from the Pennsylvania Game Commission. The study will look at how drilling changes the forest habitat, and how it could impact wildlife. But it will be a few years before results are in, and that’s just one study. award a lease to PA Child Care and Western PA Child Care,” wrote Myers. He said the plaintiffs’ attorneys are “pushing the ethical envelope by asserting factual allegations that are simply unsupportable at this time.” But he acknowledged that could change with the testimony of Mericle at the Ciavarella trial. Mericle admitted paying $2.1 million in finders fees to Ciavarella for directing the construction of the detention centers to the builder. A jury found Ciavarella guilty

During the calls Telesky reported she lost her boyfriend while at Twist, a bar on state Route 315, and later that while at The Hardware Bar on South Main Street she lost a money clip containing in excess of $100,000 while inside and could not regain entry. Police said they located Telesky in front to Genetti Hotel & Conference Center on East Market Street and allegedly found her to be intoxicated. She was cited with public drunkenness and held until sober, police said.

N.Y. gay marriage vote is hailed

B R I E F

Backers see state’s legalization law as critical to nationwide efforts. Law passed Friday with GOP help. By DAVID CRARY AP National Writer

Libya: Airstrikes kill 15

authorities accused NATO of L ibyan killing 15 people Saturday in an

airstrike that hit a restaurant and bakery in the east, though the alliance said there were no indications that civilians had died. It was the latest outcry from Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi’s government blaming NATO for killing civilians amid a four-month uprising that has sparked a civil war. NATO insists it does all it can to avoid such casualties. Meanwhile, rebel representatives said their fighters were coordinating around the country for the “zero hour” when their forces would reach the capital of Tripoli. The rebels said they have been working to cut fuel supplies from Tunisian borders in an attempt to paralyze Gadhafi’s forces. Rebels also are making homemade bombs and trying to ferry other weapons to their comrades in Tripoli, a spokesman for an underground guerrilla group there said.

NEW YORK — Many obstacles still lie ahead for supporters of same-sex marriage, and eventually they will need Congress or the Supreme Court to embrace their goal. For the moment, though, they are jubilantly channeling the lyrics of “New York, New York.” “Now that we’ve made it here, we’ll make it everywhere,” said prominent activist Evan Wolfson, who took up the cause of marriage equality as a law student three decades ago. With a historic vote by its Legislature late Friday, New York became the sixth — and by far the most populous — state to legalize same-sex marriage since Massachusetts led the way, under court order, in 2004. With the new law, which takes effect after 30 days, the number of Americans

in same-sex marriage states more than doubles. New York’s population of 19 million surpasses the combined total of Massachusetts, Connecticut, Vermont, New Hampshire and Iowa, plus the District of Columbia. The outcome — a product of intensive lobbying by Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo — will have nationwide repercussions. “New York sends the message that marriage equality across the country is a question of ‘when,’ not ‘if,’ ” said Fred Sainz, a vice president of the Human Rights Campaign. “This will be a big boost to our efforts nationally,” said Richard Socarides, a former Clinton White House adviser on gay rights. The New York bill cleared the Republican-controlled Senate 33-29, thanks to crucial support from four GOP senators who joined all but one Democrat in voting yes. The Democratic-led Assembly, which previously approved the bill, passed the Senate’s stronger religious exemptions in the measure, and Cuomo swiftly signed it.

The Senate vote marked the first time a Republican-controlled legislative chamber in any state has supported same-sex marriage, and several prominent Republican donors contributed to the lobbying campaign on behalf of the bill. Bills to legalize same-sex marriage failed in Maryland and Rhode Island. However, Illinois, Hawaii and Delaware approved civil unions, joining five other states — California, Nevada, New Jersey, Oregon and Washington — that

provide gay couples with extensive marriage-like rights. Adding those eight states to the six that allow gay marriage, more than 35 percent of Americans now live in states where gay couples can effectively attain the rights and responsibilities of marriage. Just 11 years ago, no states offered such rights. For now, gay couples cannot get married in 44 states, and 30 of them have passed constitutional amendments banning gay marriage.

Clinics can get aid again Planned Parenthood clinics in Indiana started seeing Medicaid patients again Saturday, the day after a federal judge ruled the state couldn’t cut off the organization’s public funding for general health services just because it also provides abortions. Planned Parenthood spokeswoman Kate Shepherd said she didn’t know how many Medicaid patients had visited the group’s 28 clinics since Friday night’s federal court ruling, but the clinics usually average about 80 a day. “Saturday is one of the busier days because people don’t have to take off work, and they can get family members to watch their children,” Shepherd said. Planned Parenthood of Indiana has been without Medicaid funding since May 10, when Republican Gov. Mitch Daniels signed the law that cut off about $1.4 million and made Indiana the first state to deny the organization Medicaid funds for services such as breast exams and Pap tests. BEIRUT

Syrian death toll rises Hundreds of Syrians, some with gunshot wounds, crossed into neighboring Lebanon in search of a refuge from the growing government crackdown in their homeland, a Lebanese security official said Saturday. Other Syrians marched in a funeral for victims of the crackdown outside Damascus, demanding President Bashar Assad’s ouster. Most refugees arriving at the Lebanese border came after Syrian security forces opened fire on protesters in anti-regime demonstrations across Syria on Friday. Syrian activists said 20 people were killed, including two children aged 12 and 13. RENO, NEV.

Amtrak crash investigated Federal authorities plan to look into the driving and medical records of the semitrailer driver who died when the truck slammed into an Amtrak train, killing a train crew member and injuring dozens of passengers. Peter Knudson, a spokesman for the National Transportation Safety Board, said they also will look at autopsy results to determine whether the driver had consumed any drugs before the collision Friday. The big rig plowed into the California-bound train at a crossing in a rural area about 70 miles east of Reno. Knudson said federal investigators would make sure that railroad lights and crossing gates were working at the time. Amtrak spokesman Marc Magliari in Oakland, Calif., said most of the injuries were not life-threatening.

A man and boy look at the Souris River flood waters in the Minot, N.D., neighborhood of Oak Park on Saturday. The Souris River neared its crest Saturday in Minot, where city officials hoped to ride out the high water without more damage.

Worst may be over for N.D. flooding National Weather Service drops projection totals for Souris River earlier than expected.

By DALE WETZEL and JOHN FLESHER Associated Press

MINOT, N.D. — The Souris River neared a lower-than-expected crest Saturday in Minot, where city officials hoped to ride out the high water without losing more than the thousands of homes already damaged by flooding. The river had been expected to peak Saturday evening at about 81⁄2 feet above major flood stage, but it leveled off hours earlier and the National Weather Service dropped the projection by nearly 2 feet as upstream flows weakened. It was a brief boost for a city that has

already taken a heavy blow. Mayor Curt Zimbelman said more than 4,000 homes had been flooded in an evacuation zone of neighborhoods nearest the river. About 11,000 people were ordered out earlier this week. Sgt. 1st Class David Dodds, a spokesman for North Dakota’s National Guard, said the situation had “kind of stabilized” Saturday. The Souris’ channel wasn’t getting any wider. “The fact that more homes aren’t being engulfed or being touched by the water, that’s the one silver lining if you can even say there is one,” Dodds said. Gov. Jack Dalrymple said he was encouraged. “It looks to me like, barring any rainfall ... the (flood-fighting) plan looks like it’s holding up very well,” he said. City spokesman Dean Lenertz said up-

dated estimates of the flood’s toll were being prepared. The city’s water, sewer and electric power systems were still working. Workers labored to keep the Broadway Bridge, a major north-south thoroughfare, from being overwhelmed, a possibility that would divide the city in half. Zimbelman and others had fretted about rain in the forecast, but the National Weather Service said the storms didn’t appear to be widespread or long-lasting. Fed by heavy rains upstream and dam releases that have accelerated in recent days, the Souris surged past a 130-yearold record Friday and kept going. The Federal Emergency Management Agency pledged assistance to flood victims in Burleigh and Ward counties, which include Minot and Bismarck, the state capital.

AP poll: Americans are divided on debt crisis

By CALVIN WOODWARD Associated Press

WASHINGTON — It might be time for another midnight ride by Paul Revere, this time warning “the creditors are coming.” Americans seem not to have awakened to the fast-looming debt crisis that could summon a new recession, imperil their stock market investments and shatter faith in the world’s most powerful economy. Those are among the implications, both sudden and long-lasting, expected to unfold if the U.S. defaults on debt payments for the first time in history. Facing an August deadline for raising the country’s borrowing limit or setting loose the consequences, politicians and economists are plenty alarmed. The people? Apparently not so much. They’re divided on whether the raised the limit, according to an Associated

The dire warnings appear to be falling on unconvinced ears, at least so far. Call it doomsday fatigue.

Press-GfK poll that found 41 percent opposed to the idea and 38 percent in favor. People aren’t exactly blase. A narrow majority in the poll expects an economic crisis to ensue if the U.S., maxed out on its borrowing capacity, starts missing interest payments to creditors. But even among that group, 37 percent say no dice to raising the limit. In Washington’s humid air, talk of a financial apocalypse is thick. There are warnings of “credit markets in a state of panic,” as the House Budget Committee chairman, Rep. Paul Ryan, RWis., put it, causing a sudden drop-off in the country’s ability to borrow and pushing the government off a “credit cliff.”

He was characterizing a report by the government’s nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office that warns of a “sudden fiscal crisis” in which investors might abandon U.S. bonds and force the government to pay steep interest rates and impose spending cuts and tax increases far more Draconian than if default were avoided. The dire warnings appear to be falling on unconvinced ears, at least so far. Call it doomsday fatigue. Republican leaders are insisting on huge spending cuts as a condition for raising the debt limit. This position finds solid support from Republicans in the poll and backing from a plurality of independents. About half of Democrats in the poll said the debt limit should be raised regardless of whether it’s paired with a deal to cut spending.

Guards saw a sport utility vehicle charging toward the Akbarkhail Public Medical Center, a compound that provides health care for the mountainous area in the Azra district of Logar province. But before anyone could shoot the driver or blow out the tires, the SUV smashed through a wall and exploded, local officials said. Wary of being blamed for civilian casualties, the Taliban denied it was behind the bombing. Violence has been on the rise since the Islamic movement launched its spring offensive and promised retaliation for the death of al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden. “This attack was not done by our fighters,” Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid told The Associated Press in a telephone interview. Survivors of the blast and others who heard the explosion frantically dug through the rubble with shovels and bare hands. At least 35 bodies were pulled from the debris and 53 other people were wounded, provincial public health director Dr. Mohammad Zaref Nayebkhail said. The victims — most women and children — included patients, visitors, and medical staffers. “They were offering important services for the people. We had very good services and lots of patients. There were only 10 beds but lots of other services in that center. It’s why the casualties were so high,” he said. Nayebkhail said an Afghan army helicopter was dispatched to the area to deliver medical supplies and to ferry survivors to other hospitals. He said the clinic had recently been expanded to meet the health needs of the far-flung district’s population.

Stained glass tints the auditorium at Meyers High School, with a ceiling that boasts glass reproductions of 48 state seals (the school opened in 1930, 29 years before Alaska and Hawaii joined the union).

Decade of decisions for future of Meyers High School A decade of mulling Meyers’ fate: June, 2001: Wilkes-Barre Area School Board hires the Pennsylvania Economy League to study school district growth. The cost: $16,800. July, 2001: Citing state projections of a 1,450 drop in enrollment by the end of the decade, Wilkes-Barre Area Superintendent Jeff Namey warns “We’re going to have to start cutting back, especially schools,” and mentions the idea of closing one of three high schools. October, 2001: The district announces plans to form a citizen’s advisory committee to come up with consolidation proposals. April, 2002, The PEL study

shows a 13 percent drop in total enrollment by 2012. The district hires EdVise, at a cost of $36,000, to conduct a study of all schools and make recommendations for restructuring. Talk of closing two elementary schools and a high school begins in earnest. Projections show enrollment dropping 9.2 percent at Meyers by 2006, staying steady at Coughlin and rising 14.5 percent at GAR. “We’ve had the luxury of having three (high) schools, but that’s ended now,” board member Ellen Smith says. June, 2002: The board votes to close Bear Creek and Mackin elementary schools. October, 2002: The advisory committee publicly discusses converting one high school to a middle school, but agrees all

three buildings should remain in use. Namey suggests the possibility of closing another elementary school. “We can’t sit back and wait three or four years,” he says. “We simply don’t have the money.” February, 2003: The EdVise report offers five options, three of which would close Meyers. The advisory committee favors “option D,” which would have closed Flood and Dodson elementary schools but left all three high schools open. June, 2003: An EdVise employee tells the school board that closing Meyers is the “most logical choice” because it would cost the most to repair: an estimated $4.2 million in short-term work alone. December, 2004: Having taken no action on the EdVise study,

the school board revisits the topic. The consultants tell the board complete renovations for Meyers could cost nearly $35 million, and that complete renovations of all district schools could top $92 million. “Unfortunately, there are some very difficult decisions that have to be made in the near future,” Namey says. August, 2006: Namey notes enrollment has not dropped as quickly as predicted, and suggests seeking updated projections. But he still argues for major change, saying: “We have to reorganize this school district.” October, 2006: Scaffolding goes up around the entrances of Meyers to protect students from the risk of falling bits of crumbling parapets. The board votes

to repair the parapets and roof. June, 2007: An architect hired to literally look beneath problems at Meyers tells the school board renovation plans should be scrapped because soil under the building has settled much faster than it should have, thanks to the rise and fall of groundwater with each surge of the Susquehanna River. “I can’t ethically recommend renovating this building,” architect Donald Kalina says. “I dreaded coming here tonight to tell you that.” February, 2008: The board receives new cost estimates for options to the Meyers problem: $79.5 million to stabilize the foundation and expand the building; $68.5 million to demolish it and build a new school on the

same site; $62.5 million to demolish Meyers and build a replacement at a new site; and $72.5 to preserve the auditorium – which boasts a stained glass ceiling – while demolishing the rest of the school and constructing a replacement around the auditorium. A separate study estimates renovations at Coughlin High School at $36.5 million. June 2011: The school board rejects a motion to close Meyers by the end of the 2012 school year, voting instead to have district officials conduct a study on the effects of closing the school. The study is to be completed by Jan. 12, 2012. “We have to start somewhere,” board member Phil Latinski says, “so this is the start.”

Biden point man in defense of Obama By KEN THOMAS Associated Press

COLUMBUS, Ohio — The longest walk parents can make, Vice President Joe Biden often says, is upstairs to tell the children they’ve lost their job. “Millions have been stripped of their dignity,” Biden told an Ohio audience last year. “It’s time to restore their dignity.” Biden, who spoke frequently of his blue-collar roots in Scranton during the 2008 presidential campaign, is reprising his role as one of the Obama administration’s top surrogates on the economy and an empathetic voice in industrial Midwestern states hard hit by the recession. The former Delaware senator is expected to play a similar role in the 2012 campaign, focusing on Ohio, Michigan, and Pennsylvania. President Barack Obama carried them in 2008, but each elected Republican governors in 2010. A large swath of the Midwest, including Iowa, Indiana and Wisconsin, which Obama also won, are considered prime tar-

Joseph Murgas, was founded in 1975. Club member Elaine Kollar of Swoyersville said amateur radio operators were indispensable in the aftermath of the Tropical Storm Agnes and the1972 flood. Those operators, however, realized they could have been more effective if they were better organized. After another flood scare in the years after Agnes, the Murgas club was formed.

Biden, who was scheduled to speak at the Ohio Democratic Party’s annual dinner Saturday, has assailed moves by GOP governors in Wisconsin and Ohio to strip away collective bargaining rights from most public workers. He’s also criticized efforts by Republicans in Congress to turn Medicare into a program with federal subsidies for beneficiaries who would seek coverage from private insurers. The vice president has defended Obama’s handling of the economy, pointing to tough decisions to seek an economic stimulus package and rescue U.S. automakers. “There’s still a long way to go. There are still millions of women and men who are like the family I was raised in,” Biden told Democrats in New Hampshire.

The group had radios that utilized a variety of communication techniques, ranging from Morse code to satellite imagery and messaging. For O’Malia, amateur radio operation features another personal layer. “I’m always on my farm or in my greenhouses so I can’t really just get up and take a trip anywhere,” he said. O’Malia has communicated with other amateur radio operators from as far away as Russia and Antarctica, often offering gardening and growing tips. “It is my escape from myself,” he said. The event continues today until 2 p.m. at Frances Slocum.

Voter ID law would cause DIVERSITY extra red tape for Amish Continued from Page 3A

Gov’t-issued photo ID would be required before casting a ballot in any election. The Associated Press

LANCASTER — Amish voters in Pennsylvania would be included in a requirement to show government-issued identification in each election under legislation approved by the state House last week, but they could get an exemption from the requirement for a photo on the ID card. Lawmakers tell the (Lancaster) Intelligencer Journal/Lancaster New Era that Plain sect voters would be able to get a religious exemption from the provision requiring a photograph on ID cards. But to do so, they will have to clear more regulatory hurdles than the average voter, since getting such a card involves providing PennDOT with a statement of their beliefs signed by their church district’s bishop. Rep. John Lawrence, R-Chester, who wrote the bill’s exemption provisions, said “They have to show a state-issued ID just like other voters. They’re not getting a pass.”

Under current law, voters must show a valid form of ID only the first time they vote. Under the bill approved Thursday by the House, voters would be required to show a government-issued photo ID before casting a ballot in any election. Rep. Mike Sturla, D-Lancaster, voted against the legislation, saying it would suppress turnout. He also cited data that showed only four cases of misrepresentation at state polls since 2004 out of 19.4 million ballots cast. Lawrence said he worked with Amish leaders to craft a suitable amendment allowing them to forego the photo. “They have to present a printout form that says, ‘I have a religious objection to being photographed. I’m a member of XYZ church,’ and then the Amish bishop must sign off on the bottom of the form,” Lawrence said. PennDOT will check the bishop’s name in its records and then issue a nonphoto ID. Those who choose not to apply for a government ID would still be able to cast a provisional ballot, but the legislation would require them to return to the county courthouse within six days to prove who they are.

on Economic Opportunity were on hand to serve the long lines of people waiting to get a taste of the freshly grilled hamburgers, homemade baked beans and chilled watermelon. “This is our first time at the picnic and my kids are loving it,” said Larry Femea of WilkesBarre, who came with his two autistic children. “I heard that there was going to be a bunch of fun activities, so I’m glad I came. I’ll definitely be back next year.” A number of area colleges and universities were on hand to share the core purpose of the event.

“We’ve been involved with this event since its inception,” said LCCC Director of Admissions Francis Curry, who is also advisor to the college’s NAACP club. “This is such a wonderful celebration of diversity and a victory for our community. I’m proud to be involved.” “I think what this event means to the community, is a word that rhymes with community and that’s unity,” said Scott Richardson, director of the Diversity Center at Misericordia. “My experience with this event over the past three years has been one of gratitude that we can come together in a kind of fellowship and actually be communal. “Diversity is a slow process. This is a great place to start.”

orman J. Chicallo, 82, of Plymouth, passed away Saturday, June 25, 2011, at his home. He was born in Larksville, on September 4, 1928, a son of the late John and Mary (Nemshick) Chicallo. He was a graduate of Kingston High School and attended King’s College, Wilkes-Barre. Norman was a U.S. Army veteran of both the Korean and Vietnam wars. He retired from the U.S. Army, with over 20 years of service, on November 30, 1968, and attained the rank of Master Sergeant. He was a member of All Saints Parish, Plymouth; the American Legion Post No. 463, Plymouth; the Fighting Irish Club, formerly of Wilkes-Barre; and was also a member of the Elk’s Lodge No. 109, Pringle, where he served as Past Exalted Ruler (P.E.R.). Norman enjoyed gardening and

was getting a little dry, but I just pushed through it,” he said. “It was kind of in my mind that I have to finish.” Bryce Steele, 12, of Monroe Township, took second and Michaela Buckley, 12, of Nanticoke, finished third. In the 7-to-10-year-old group, brothers Robby Woolard, 10, and Tyler Woolard, 7, both of Plains Township, took home first and second in the four-lap race, and Carleigh Keene, 9, of Nanticoke, finished third. In the 6-and-under division, Luke Peters, 5, of Wapwallopen, finished first, Aiden Zweibel, 6, of Nanticoke, finished second and Jenna Thomas, 5, of Nanticoke, finished third, but the highlight of the single-lap race may have been 5-year-old Allison Brown’s perseverant finish. The girl from Nanticoke lost a pedal after rounding the final corner of the racetrack but soldiered on, pedaling with one foot. The crowd cheered her on as she balanced her bike to the finish line, a feat made all the more impressive because she didn’t use training wheels. The event also brought local officials and organizations to-

gether, including state Rep. Gerald Mullery, D-Newport Township, who offered free sno-cones and face-painting at his campaign tent, the Newport Township Community Organization, which hosted a free craft tent, and First Assembly of God Church of Wilkes-Barre, which brought 15 free children’s games. “Nanticoke is a very strong, tight-knit community,” Mullery said, “and when you have an event like this and you can bring together the vendors and the non-profits, that’s what brings an event like this together.” “It’s a great way to go out and meet the kids and bring them a little joy in their lives,” said First Assembly of God Youth Pastor Mike Smith, who lives in Nanticoke. “The best way to reach someone is to not ask for anything, and in today’s society events like this work really well. Our whole purpose is not to make money, but to reach people, and for that, this is great.” The event was organized by the City of Nanticoke, its housing authority and Facet Cycling LLC, which also organizes annual bike racing in Luzerne, Wilkes-Barre and Laurel Run. Next in this year’s series will be a hill climb up Giant’s Despair on Aug. 23 and races around downtown WilkesBarre Aug. 27.

Whether you’re looking for an outdoor adventure, wanting to catch a baseball game, hoping to tour a historic site or just want to get away for some family fun, the options are limitless. Here are a few: PLAY BALL There are four Major League Baseball teams that play within a tank of gas of Wilkes-Barre. But if a ticket to the New York Yankees, New York Mets, Baltimore Orioles or Philadelphia Phillies is a bit too pricey, then minor league baseball may be right for you. There are no fewer than 21 other professional baseball teams playing within 200 miles of Wilkes-Barre. Besides our very own Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees, who play in Moosic, there is another Triple A team playing in eastern Pennsylvania – the Lehigh Valley Iron Pigs in Allentown.

All three high schools were built with a rated capacity in excess of 1,500. That theoretically means any two of them could hold the 2,882 students who were enrolled in the three schools this year. But those capacity numbers come from the early 1900s, when it was common to have 30 and 40 students per room, there were no laws requiring complex facilities and services for special education students and the notion of a “computer lab” belonged in a Buck Rogers comic, not a high school. “The capacity is no longer that number,” Namey said. “Obviously, we need to take a very hard look at that.

A classroom at Meyers High School. Wilkes-Barre Area is looking into another study on the school.

And Meyers is an anchor that some believe holds the entire South Wilkes-Barre neighborhood together. It was the consulting firm EdVise, hired in 2002 to review all schools in the district and make recommendations, that singled out Meyers, as “the most logical choice” for closure, estimating needed renovation work was the

most costly there, at $4.2 million. The figure mushroomed over the years. In 2004, EdVise estimated complete renovation of Meyers at nearly $35 million – more than a third of a projected $92 million to renovate all the districts schools. Despite those daunting numbers, the board took tentative steps toward redoing Meyers, bringing in engineers to test the grounds and inspect the building. In 2008, one of those consultants brought more bad news: The foundation of the school was built on soft soil that had compressed far faster than it should have. Estimated cost to stabilize and renovate: $79.5 million. Another company was called in for a second opinion and confirmed the diagnosis. The soil under the school had been saturated every time the nearby Susquehanna River swelled to flood stage, then compacted when the river retreated. The foundation has settled at least three times faster – and deeper – than it should have, shifting by as much as 12 inches in some spots. The results are subtle but sig-

Yet, Namey noted, the building is so solid that engineers said it can be used for another “40 or 50 years before there are serious structural issues.” As the school board struggles to bridge what, in February, had been an $8 million shortfall in the upcoming budget, the question has become: Can the district afford to keep using Meyers?

we do as victims,” said an angered Sands. “Somebody should have spoken up and asked for a hearing to find out why this expert can’t be here.” Investigators believe Fassett and Michael Kerkowski were killed in May 2002 at Kerkowski’s Hunlock Township home and buried in a shallow grave outside the Kingston Township house Selenski then occupied. Their bodies were discovered June 5, 2003, along with the charred remains of Adeiye Keiler, Frank James and an unidentified person. A Luzerne County jury acquitted Selenski in the slayings of Keiler and James after a twoweek trial in March 2006. He was convicted, however, of abusing their bodies, which he burned in a pit on the 6-acre property on Mount Olivet Road. After the 2006 trial, then District Attorney David Lupas charged Selenski with the strangulation murders of Fassett and Kerkowski. Since then, Selenski’s trial has been scheduled and delayed numerous times because of appeals. “With all these delays, I don’t cry anymore,” Sands said. “I feel more resentment, hatred towards a lot of people than I do anything else. This has been going on for so long, it will be a decade next May when our sister was killed.” Sands said she was unaware of any prosecutorial strategy by Lupas to seek separate trials for Selenski, 37, for the confirmed remains recovered at his former house. She alleges Lupas broke a promise to her family when he successfully campaigned for county judge rather than focus on prosecuting Selenski for the murders of Fassett and Kerkowski. “Dave said to us after that (March 2006) trial was over that he was going to see the next trial through to the end,” Sands said. “That is what he told me and my family in the courthouse. When I

found out he was running for judge, I blew my top.” “Dave said, ‘I promise I’m going to see this case through,’ ” Owen recalled. “We know what happened after that.” A message left on a voicemail at Lupas’ courthouse chambers was not returned on Friday. Sands said she remains confident current District Attorney Jacqueline Musto Carroll will prosecute Selenski when the “With all trial takes these de- place.

According to court records, there have been 72 homicide cases in Luzerne County Court since June 5, 2003. Fifty-six cases have been settled by conviction, guilty plea or acquittal. “How much longer does this have to go on before we see justice?” Sands asked. “I see case after case down there getting closed, and we’re still sitting here and I’m not feeling any better. It is not fair to any of us.”

Education cuts in Pa. state budget not as steep as governor proposed House and Senate will report back to the Capitol to work on $27.15B spending plan. By BRAD BUMSTED The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

HARRISBURG -- With legislative staffers still working on details, the House and Senate will report back to the Capitol today to begin consideration of a $27.15 billion state budget that supporters say imposes fiscal discipline but critics claim will cause unnecessary pain. A tentative agreement between Republican legislative leaders and Gov. Tom Corbett

cuts funding for higher education and public schools, but not as steeply as Corbett proposed in his March budget address. The details were not available for most line items. The University of Pittsburgh, for instance, faces a 19 percent cut in state funding, compared with the 50 percent cut Corbett called for in March, according to key legislative staffers. It’s a combined $130 million cut for Pitt, Penn State, Temple and Lincoln universities, which receive 8 percent to 9 percent of their money from the state. That large a cut in the state appropriation “translates to a tuition hike that could be as

Costa, D-Forest Hills, called it a budget that won’t require Marcellus Shale drillers to pay a fee on wells while making cuts “at the expense of children and families.” “I shake my head and just don’t understand it,” he said. Costa was referring to Corbett’s insistence that any impact fee on gas extraction not be part of the budget deal and be considered next month after his advisory commission comes up with figures on damages caused by drillers. “What the governor has proposed and is working on is a responsible budget that reduces the size and cost of state govern-

ment without raising taxes,” said Kevin Harley, Corbett’s press secretary. “The goal is changing the culture of the last eight years, when people believed we could borrow, tax and spend our way to prosperity.” As for local school tax increases, Harley said Corbett wants legislation approved with the budget requiring that increases above the rate of inflation be submitted to a district’s voters for approval. Asked whether that would curb the increases he’s predicting for three-fourths of districts, Hughes said he would have to look at the details of the legislation.

Chaplain assistant helps soldiers of all faiths in Baghdad By KATHLEEN KRELLER McClatchy Newspapers

BOISE, Idaho — In an office deep inside Baghdad’s international zone, Staff Sgt. Keith Millar of Caldwell likes to look over pictures of his wife and two small children. It’s a way of ministering to himself, of staying connected to what is waiting for him at home. Then it’s back to work, helping minister to a diverse group of soldiers and civilians at Forward Operating Base Prosperity. Though he is not ordained, Millar, 39, is a chaplain’s assistant.

OUT ON A LIMB

Fassett Cemetery holds the tale of Civil War officer

eople have all sorts of reasons for researching old names and sites. For John Krebs it was a mystery encountered while pursuing a favorite pastime in the Scottsville area of Wyoming County. “I have hunted this area since the sixties and always stopped at an old cemetery known as Fassett Cemetery,” he writes. But it wasn’t just the age of the cemetery that intrigued him; it was a feature inscribed on one of the tombstones. “It is the Medal of Honor and looks like it belonged to Alvah (Fassett) since he was born in 1835 and died in 1883.” John, I did some research on Alvah Fassett, a member of a family long prominent in that area, and here’s what I discovered. Sgt. Alvah Fassett, born in Scottsville, served in the U.S. Army during the Civil War in Company B, 52nd Pennsylvania Infantry, nicknamed the Luzerne Regiment because most of it was recruited in Luzerne County. Its lieutenant colonel – and later its commander – was Henry M. Hoyt of Wilkes-Barre, who would become governor of Pennsylvania. Fassett joined Oct. 11, 1861. He was badly wounded when shot in the jaw during the Battle of Fair Oaks, part of the Peninsula Campaign, which took place in late spring of 1862. In that campaign, U.S. Army forces under Gen. George B. McClellan advanced up the Virginia peninsula, intending to besiege and capture the Confederate capital of Richmond. After initially being pushed back, the Confederates rallied under their new commander, Gen. Robert E. Lee, and drove McClellan’s forces back down the peninsula in a series of battles. It was at Fair Oaks, sometimes called the Battle of Seven Pines, that Fassett was wounded. He was apparently evacuated to Philadelphia for treatment, being discharged for his wounds on Aug. 11 and returning home. John, my research shows that the medal on Alvah Fassett’s tombstone, though it has some of the features of the Civil War-era Medal of Honor, is not that decoration. It is a postwar medal worn by members of the GAR (Grand Army of the Republic), a veterans group formed after the war. Apparently Fassett was a member. There was a Capt. John Barclay Fassett (1836-1905) who won the Medal of Honor, but he was from the Philadelphia area and won his medal for his service in the 23rd Pennsylvania Infantry at the Battle of Gettysburg in July, 1863, nearly a year after Alvah was discharged. Capt. Fassett is buried in New York City. In May, 1864, the federal government granted Alvah Fassett a woundedsoldier pension of $3 a month, not a bad sum for the time. You also express interest in the ornate fence at the cemetery. It was made by the Eagle Fence Co., located at 98 N. Pennsylvania Ave., Wilkes-Barre. The company was founded by Welsh immigrant George A. Edwards in 1882. Tip: More and more book-length local history is appearing online or is being reprinted. Three century-old books by local historian Stanley R. Smith, out of print for many years, are now available free of charge online. Find them by author and title on your search engine. They are “The Wyoming Valley in 1892,” “The Wyoming Valley in the Nineteenth Century” and “The Story of Wyoming Valley.” Copies are also available for purchase through various sites, including Amazon. These books contain not only history but lots of biographical information about prominent citizens of the 1800s and early 1900s. Tom Mooney is a Times Leader genealogy columnist.

Nobody can go back and start a new beginning. But anyone can start today to make a new ending.

At Cloud9, our fitness philosophy goes against all you have been told before. One has to question what you have been told and by whom. It seems everyone is a self-proclaimed fitness expert, although not everyone has the physique to back up their philosophies. It is great to question the validity of something. Give us a chance, at least 3 months, and then you can be as skeptical as you want if you don’t notice any results.

Staff Sgt. Millar, home on leave visiting family, serves as a chaplain with Idaho’s 116th Cavalry Brigade Combat Team at Camp Victory in Baghdad, Iraq.

their everyday life to do what they would at home,” Millar said. “Here on the (base) we are able to do something that reminds them of back home.” When the 116th trained at Camp Shelby last year before heading to Iraq, it was a tense time. One soldier was struggling with financial issues and leadership, Millar said. “He was just very overwhelmed,” Millar said. “We helped him as we could and said, ‘This is what you need to do.”’ Though the soldier seemed to want to fight the spiritual and practical advice from the chaplains, eventually he relented. About a month into Iraq, Millar came across the man. “He was all smiles and said his life was going so much better,” Millar said. “That makes it important when you stop and talk to people that actually need someone.” Forward Operating Base Prosperity essentially runs like a large city. While some of it feels foreign — like the climate and architecture — the rest just feels like a normal urban area, Millar said. That includes the standard American (and Mexican) fare in the base’s cafeteria. When he isn’t seeing to soldiers’ morale and spiritual wellbeing, Millar spends his down time playing basketball in the cool of night, ping pong and exercising. He calls his family in Idaho. He chats with Malik. Millar’s mother recently sent a box of presents from Idaho for Malik’s children. Reminders of home, like the green rice cereal treats his wife, Robyn, sent for St. Patrick’s Day, are a respite. Still, when he goes home to Caldwell, he plans on taking a bit of Iraqi culture with him. “They move a bit slower than what we do in Idaho and America,” Millar said. “That’s something I’m going to try. They stop and have tea a little more often and make personal connections.” The Millars met at Northwest Nazarene University in 1993. Millar’s roommate was Robyn’s

brother. One source of family conflict is a debate over the couple’s actual first date. Keith Millar had just returned to campus from a guard drill weekend. “At that time the cafeteria wasn’t open late,” Robyn Millar said. “He thought, ‘Who could I call to go get something?’ We went to a fast food restaurant by the campus. The reason I consider it a date is he walked me home to the dorm. He asked me out for a concert.” Keith Millar considers the concert the first date. They were married in 1996. Fast forward to the couple’s 15th anniversary. It was Wednes-

day, and Millar was home on leave. The couple celebrated by walking around the Boise Depot, the place where he proposed and she accepted. Their children are Patrick, 10, and Kendra, 5. Robyn, 36, is working to grow her own Mary Kay makeup business and to reassure her children that their dad is OK. “We just talk a lot about it. We send care packages and color pictures and things like that,” Robyn Millar said. “At the very beginning I had to really just reassure my 10-year-old that Daddy was in a safe place.” And Millar has a message for his family in Caldwell. “I’ll be home soon,” he said.

Lamia said people anxious about attending their reunion should make it a point to go. Chances are, their concerns won’t be validated. After avoiding her reunions for several decades, worried that she wouldn’t be able to relate to anyone or have anything to talk about, Leslie Hoffman Kirn was relieved last year when she went to an allclass reunion and had a great time. “I think that took away any fears,” saidHoffmanKirn,47,whothissummerisontheplanningcommitteefor her 30th reunion at Parkway Central High School in Chesterfield, Mo. Kirn, an IT security analyst, said she was “your average girl, not real popular” in high school, and credits the connections she has made with old classmates on Facebook with drawing her out of her shell. Going to a reunion tends to be a reassuring experience: People are generally surprised at how well they are remembered and how well they remember their classmates, said Glenn Reeder, professor of social psychology at Illinois State University in Normal, Ill., who co-authored a 1986 survey of people invited back to their high school reunion, one of very few to study the topic. The study found that by far the most important factor in the decision to attend a reunion was the memory people had of high school. Those who recalled having a great time, and the more popular kids, were more eager to go back. The

SUNDAY, JUNE 26, 2011 PAGE 13B less popular kids were less likely to attend,sometimesworryingthatno one would remember them. But that’s not always the case. Jan-Michael Sacharko was valedictorian and captain of the math team at the all-boys Catholic high school he graduated from in Portland,Maine.Heenjoyedhighschool and was well-liked, but decided not to go back for his10-year reunion. “I wonder if I’d have to defend what I do,” said Sacharko, 33, a development director at a homeless advocacy group in Arlington, Va. “I thinksomepeoplewouldexpectme to be successful in terms of money, and I’m not, I’ll tell you that.” The pressure to live up to others’ expectations tends to subside as the decades progress. Reeder’s study found that while younger age groups focused on what changes they saw in their classmates (who got fatter, who got richer), older returnees focused on continuities — the hair may be grayer, but the sense of humor remains the same. Hoffman, seeking to shed her snobby reputation, said she’s hopeful enough time has passed that she’s not boxed in with her teenage persona. “I’ve put myself out there, and I’m comfortable with myself now,” Hoffman said. “It would be great to be welcomed, but if they’re not gracious, I think I’m OK with that.” AS THE YEARS ROLL BY ... Every reunion has a distinct personality, said Cyndi Clamp, president of the National Association of Reunion Managers, a trade group for professional reunion organizers. She describes how things

change over the decades. 10th — This is the least well-attended and the most pretentious, with many people focused on how they look, what kind of car they drive and what their date looks like. Because most people are in the same general place in life, many are measuring themselves against their classmates. 20th — With more perspective and life experiences under their belts, classmates care much less about superficial success and are more earnestly curious about how peoplearedoingintheirfamiliesand careers.The20-yearisthemostwellattended and a time when people’s paths start to diversify. 30th—The30thgetsmoreinteresting because people’s lives are all over the board with divorces, career changes and kids of all ages. Classmates show greater confidence and fewer spouses and guests come along because people don’t feel that they need someone by their side. 40th—Asretirementnears,people’s lives start to resemble each other’s once again. There’s less drinking and more talking, with conversationsfocusingon“remember when.” People find value in being around others they knew when they were younger because it makes them feel younger. 50th — The golden reunion is the second-most well-attended. There’s a sense that this could be the last time you see these people. Plus, people go because they are able to attend. Like the 40th, nostalgia is strong. Beyond 50th ... These are much smaller reunions, and those who do attend are just really glad to be able to be there.

Strong Past champs roll into round 4 pitching, HR lift Yankees Serena Williams, Federer, Nadal and Sharapova move on with straight-set wins.

don on Saturday. Yes, only five matches since returning to the tour after nearly a full year off because of a series of health scares, Williams produced a performance worthy of the 13time Grand Slam champion that she is. And then Williams talked the talk of someone finally ready to concede that British bookmakers might very well have been right to make her the pre-tournament favor-

WIMBLEDON, England — Serena Williams has been known to say she isn’t satisfied with this or that aspect of her game, even after easily winning a match, say, 6-3, 6-2. So it was somehow refreshing to hear Williams actually praise herself after a victory by that very score over 26th-seeded Maria Kirilenko at Wimble- See WIMBLEDON , Page 5C

DURHAM, N.C. – Solo home runs from Terry Tiffee and Greg Golson turned out to be all the scoring the Scranton/WilkesBarre Yankees needed Saturday night. That’s because the matchup with the Durham Bulls was a solid pitchers’ duel, as Leslie Anderson’s solo shot was the only scoring for the hosts as the Yankees prevailed 2-1 in the second game of their four-game series at a packed DurYANKEES ham Bulls Athletic Park. Durham, which is in first BULLS place in the International League’s South Division, finished with nine hits to the Yankees’ six. Eric Wordekemper (2-0) was the winning pitcher in relief while Randy Flores picked up his second save of the campaign as the Yankees extended their winning streak to three games. Chris Bootcheck (3-2) took the hard-luck loss for Durham in his fourth straight quality start. Adam Warren, an alumnus of the University of North Carolina about 10 miles away, had the nodecision despite a gem of a quality start, going six shutout innings and allowing six hits with seven strikeouts against a walk. Golson led the Yankees with the homer and a single. Anderson homered, doubled and singled for Durham, and Desmond Jennings added three hits and a pair of stolen bases. The Bulls left 11 runners on base to seven for the Yankees. It was a pitchers’ duel from the start, as Bootcheck allowed just one hit over the first four innings. He went 7 1/3 and allowed two runs on five hits, with seven strikeouts against three walks .Tiffee - who is in just his third game with the club after signing from Lancaster of the Atlantic League - put the Yankees up 1-0 with one out in the fifth, when he launched a1-1pitch into the rightfield bleachers. And as soon as Warren was off the mound the Bulls pounced. Anderson led off the seventh by

arl Granville skates tight figure-eights with precision at the Revolution Ice Centre in Pittston. And yet, undeterred by the sled that keeps him grounded, he does not consider himself any different than the other hockey players on the ice.

The only difference is that, afterward, while others take off their skates, Granville puts on his prosthetic leg. Granville lost his left leg while serving as a sergeant specialist of the Pennsylvania Army National Guard in Zormat, Afghanistan, in 2008. A

roadside bomb ripped through his convoy and killed Spc. Derek Holland, of Wind Gap, and Major Scott Haggerty, of Stillwater, Okla. The blast severely injured Granville’s left leg, and it was amputated at the knee at an Army base in Germany. Three years later, Granville, 27,

capably performs everyday activities independently – thanks to sled hockey. The Dupont resident, in conjunction with the Revolution Ice Centre in Pittston, is initiating a sled hockey program for the physically disabled. “Sled hockey helped me tremendously with my rehab portion,” Granville said. “Getting independent was a long process, and playing hockey was a big help.” Sled hockey shares the look and feel of traditional hockey. Hard checking, fast skating, goaltending and fighting are still part of the game. It is generally played by those See GRANVILLE , Page 6C

urday, and their two-round scores of 9under 133 gave them a share of the lead in the championship flight at the 65th annual John A. Allan Tournament held at Fox Hill. “I was so caught up in what we were doing,” said Williams. “When they said we both ended with the same score I was like, ‘Wow.’” The final round of the better-ball stroke play flight features 27 holes.

he fear among minor league baseball fans in Northeastern Pennsylvania is real. They believe the partnership of the New York Yankees and Mandalay Baseball Properties are selling us a bill of goods with their proposed purchase of the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees and their ownership rights. Those fans are concerned our team of today will become Staten Island’s team of tomorrow. And they worry our field of dreams will soon become a field of crabgrass. But while all this speculation might make Scranton/Wilkes-Barre supporters a little crabby, Randy Mobley has a word of advice. Relax. The International League president doesn’t believe the New York Yankees and Mandalay would sign on for a longterm deal at PNC Field if they weren’t committed to keeping a baseball team playing there. “What they have proposed is a 30-year lease,” Mobley said a couple of weeks ago. “What that would mean is, they would be paying for that stadium for 30 years. If they signed a 30-year lease, you’re essentially assured there’s going to be baseball there for 30 years.” But what kind of baseball?

Mandalay’s recent moves worrisome Fans have fretted about the current Triple-A affiliate of the New York Yankees moving to Staten Island since the Yankees came in here. After all, Mandalay manages both farm teams in the New York system. And the recent history of the current management group doesn’t do much to calm people’s nerves. A Single-A team in the Cincinnati Reds system was moved from Rockford, Ill., to Dayton, Ohio, in 2000, shortly after Mandalay took over the team. In 2003, Mandalay moved its Double-A affiliate in the Texas League from Shreveport, La., to Frisco, Texas. And under Mandalay’s ownership, Hagerstown would have lost the Single-A affiliate of the Washington Nationals last year if a group of local businessmen from that area hadn’t rallied to purchase the team. That’s the kind of baseball-saving support John McGee – the founder of Triple-A baseball in Northeastern Pennsylvania – has been trying to drum up around here. But it wouldn’t mean banging the drums slowly if the Yankees pulled away from PNC Field, Mobley insisted. First, the International League generally insists upon venues with a seating capacity of 10,000 for its teams to call home. Which means the Yankees would have to add about 3,000 seats if they wanted to bring Triple-A to Single-A Staten Island’s current 7,171-seat venue. Or build a new stadium somewhere else. Then, the International League would have to approve such a move. “It does not mean there would be no baseball (in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre),” Mobley said. “Before that franchise could leave there, the league would have to approve that. It’s not up to Mandalay or the New York Yankees or anyone involved to make that decision.” And if it’s approved for the Yankees to move out, another Triple-A affiliate could move in. “There are 30 Triple-A franchises and 30 affiliates,” Mobley said. “There might be musical chairs along the line.” He seems certain the summer music at the park – the crack of the bat and the pop of the glove – won’t stop if Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre becomes property of the New York Yankees. It all sounds so sweet when Mobley talks about this deal. Until he says five words that strike the loudest alarm: “Unless there’s an out option.” Paul Sokoloski is a Times Leader sports columnist.

The Yankees’ CC Sabathia won his 10th game of the season on Saturday with an 8-3 victorty over the Colorado Rockies.

CC taps Rockies for 10th win NEW YORK (AP) — CC Sabathia tossed eight stingy innings to win for the seventh time in his last eight starts, Alex Rodriguez drove in three runs and the New York Yankees finally beat the Colorado Rockies, 8-3 on Saturday. A dozen pitchers began the day with nine wins, but Sabathia (10-4) won the race to double digits. The big lefthander allowed one run while striking out nine, improving to 19-7 all-time in interleague play. That win total makes him baseball’s active leader. He threw just 103 pitches, but manager Joe Girardi decided against letting him finish the game. Buddy Carlyle promptly gave up Ty Wigginton’s two-run homer in the ninth. Athletics 4, Phillies 1

PHILADELPHIA — Trevor Cahill tossed three-hit ball into the eighth inning, Adam Rosales homered and the Oakland Athletics beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-1 on Saturday night. Cahill and Phillies starter Cole Hamels had a nice and easy duel going in a game that breezed by until the Phillies rallied late. Cahill (8-5) won his second straight start after dropping five straight and spoiled Hamels’ bid to win his 10th game. Tigers 6, Diamondbacks 0

DETROIT — Justin Verlander struck out a career-high 14 in his latest masterful performance, and the Detroit Tigers beat the Arizona Diamondbacks 6-0 on Saturday night. Verlander (10-3) allowed four hits over eight innings, and Alex Avila’s three-run homer in the fourth broke the game open. The Tigers pulled into a virtual tie with Cleveland atop the AL Central. Pirates 6, Red Sox 4

PITTSBURGH — Lyle Overbay hit a 3-run homer and the Pittsburgh Pirates spoiled Tim Wakefield’s homecoming with a 6-4 win over the Boston Red Sox on Saturday. Jeff Karstens (5-4) pitched effectively into the seventh inning as the Pirates tied a season-high by posting their fourth straight victory to move two games above .500 at 39-37. Mets 14, Rangers 5

ARLINGTON, Texas — Lucas Duda matched a Mets record with three doubles while going 4 for 5 with four RBIs, Carlos Beltran snapped out of a slump with three hits and New York had season highs for runs and hits in a 14-5 victory over the Texas Rangers on Saturday. Giants 1, Indians 0

the seventh inning, giving the San Francisco Giants a 1-0 victory over the error-prone Cleveland Indians on Saturday for their fourth straight victory. Sipp slightly flinched his left arm before even throwing a pitch to Emmanuel Burriss, allowing Miguel Tejada to score from third. There also were two errors in the inning by second baseman Cord Phelps that spoiled a strong start by Justin Masterson (5-6). White Sox 3, Nationals 0

CHICAGO — Jake Peavy threw four dominant innings in his first career relief appearance and the Chicago White Sox beat the Washington Nationals 3-0 on Saturday. Peavy (4-1) gave up a hit and struck out seven, combining with starter John Danks, Brian Bruney and closer Sergio Santos on a two-hitter that snapped Washington’s fivegame winning streak. Angels 6, Dodgers 1

LOS ANGELES — Tyler Chatwood pitched seven strong innings, fellow rookie Mark Trumbo homered and Vernon Wells added a threerun shot as the Los Angeles Angels defeated the rival Dodgers 6-1 Saturday for their second straight win in the Freeway Series. Blue Jays 6, Cardinals 3

ST. LOUIS — Carlos Villanueva worked six solid innings backed by Juan Rivera’s threerun homer, the only hit in a five-run third, and the Toronto Blue Jays’ beat the sagging St. Louis Cardinals 6-3 on Saturday night. Reds 10, Orioles 5

BALTIMORE — Joey Votto homered twice and drove in five runs, and the Cincinnati Reds beat the Baltimore Orioles 10-5 Saturday night in a long-ball duel that featured nine home runs. Brewers 11, Twins 1

MILWAUKEE — Prince Fielder hit one of four Milwaukee homers to give him an NL-best 67 RBIs this season and the Brewers beat the injury-riddled Minnesota Twins 11-1 Saturday night after Delmon Young left on a stretcher. Rays 7, Astros 2

HOUSTON — B.J. Upton homered and drove in two runs to back up Wade Davis and help the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Houston Astros 7-2 Saturday night. Royals 3, Cubs 2

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Chris Getz drove in the go-ahead run with two outs in the eighth inning and the Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago Cubs 3-2 Saturday night, snapping a season-high six game losing streak.

PHILLIES PROSPECTS

Outfielders, hurlers excite organization

Hot prospect Montero fine-tunes his game

YA N K E E S I N M I N O R S

Pair of catchers rate 1-2 as prospects

By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

Editor’s Note: The Philadelphia Phillies minor league system has lost some highly regarded prospects during the last few years with many trades being made to help the parent club. But that doesn’t mean the cupboard is bare. The Phillies have produced more young talent and might have more pieces to deal if they need to make a midseason trade this season. Here’s a look at how the preseason top 10 prospects in the Philadelphia organization are faring and where they are currently playing:

Editor’s Note: The Scranton/Wilkes-

1. Domonic Brown, outfielder, Philadelphia: Since being called up he’s hitting .216 with four home runs, 11 RBI, 11 runs scored and two stolen bases. 2. Jonathan Singleton, outfielder/infielder, Single-A Clearwater: He’s got a .278 batting average with six home runs and 29 RBI in 61 games. 3. Brody Colvin, starting pitcher, Single-A Clearwater: He has posted an 0-3 record in eight starts with a 4.98 ERA and 34 strikeouts in 43 1/3 innings. 4. Jarred Cosart, starting pitcher, Single-A Clearwater: He’s put up a 6-4 record and 3.16 ERA and 62 strikeouts in 13 starts and 74 innings. 5. Trevor May, starting pitcher, Single-A Clearwater: A strikeout machine, he’s fanned 102 in 78 innings, going 4-4 with a 3.23 ERA. 6. Sebastian Valle, catcher, Single-A Clearwater: The 20year-old is batting .353 with three home runs and 23 RBI with an on-base percentage of .367 in 173 at-bats. He has had two stints on the disabled list this season. 7. Jiwan James, outfielder, Single-A Clearwater: The speedster has 14 stolen bases and is batting .264 with three homers and 13 RBI in 273 at-bats. 8. Jesse Biddle, starting pitcher, Low-A Lakewood: The first-round pick from 2010 is 3-6 with a 3.70 ERA and 66 strikeouts in 73 innings. 9. Domingo Santana, outfielder, Low-A Lakewood: A right fielder, he has posted a .266 batting average with six home runs and 17 RBI in 203 at-bats and 53 games. 10. Aaron Altherr, outfielder, Short Season Single-A Williamsport: He’s got off to a hot start for the Crosscutters, hitting .320 (8-for-25) in the team’s first six games.

LOCALS IN MINORS

Hazleton grad stars for Triple-A Bulls Russ Canzler: The Hazleton Area grad continues to have a solid season for Durham, the Triple-A affiliate of the Tampa Bay Rays. The third baseman is hitting .289 with eight home runs, 42 RBI, five stolen bases and an on-base percentage of .393 after Friday’s action and might be on his way to represent the International League in next month’s Triple-A All-Star game in Salt Lake City. Chris Sedon: The Coughlin alum is playing for the Gateway Grizzlies, an independent team participating in the Frontier League. He was placed on the disabled list on June 13 and hasn’t returned from the injury.

Barre Yankees have taken a page from their parent club by winning championships. SWB has racked up four consecutive International League North Division titles and more could be on the way because the minor league system is stacked with top prospects that are close to contributing at the Triple-A or Major League level, according to Baseball America. Here’s a look at the organization’s top 10 prospects, before the season, where they are now and how they are faring:

BILL TARUTIS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER

Catcher Jesus Montero is just 21 years old, but the highly regarded prospect already is playing his second season for Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre, the top minor league team of the New York Yankees.

Triple-A finishing school By JOSH HORTON For The Times Leader

It is no secret that Jesus Montero was in the mix for the backup catching role with the New York Yankees entering this season. However, it is almost the all-star break and the highly regarded prospect still finds himself behind the plate in Moosic. Despite playing in the International League for a second season, Montero is in good spirits. He is taking full advantage of the opportunity to suit up and play everyday for the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees. According to the catcher, the Yankees organization would rather him play everyday at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre than sit on the bench in New York. “They told me that I need to come down here and play every single day and they told me it’s better that if I get to the big leagues, I (play) there for a long time rather than be there on the bench,” Montero said. “I take that as a good wait.” Montero might have gotten off to a slow start to begin the 2011 season, but the first half of last season wasn’t his greatest either. On June 21, 2010, Montero was hitting just .239. He had a strong second half and finished the season with a .289 average, while leading the team with 21 home runs and 74 RBI. He also led the team in doubles with 34. He is hoping the success in the second half of last year will find him again this summer. “I don’t really know what’s going to happen,” said Montero, hitting .289, with five home runs and 26 RBI,. entering Saturday’s game against Durham. “It’s baseball. Sometimes it’s hard, sometimes it’s really good. I hope everything comes well and I hope for it to be like last year, too.” Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees hitting coach Butch Wynegar said that it’s a matter of consistency for Montero to duplicate his offensive success from the second half of last season. “He’s not quite locked in and doing what he was doing last year,” said the

“I said it before and I hate saying it, but sometimes I think he gets bored being in Triple-A. He needs another challenge and I think that challenge will be the big leagues.”

Butch Wynegar Scranton/Wilkes-Barre hitting coach

former All-Star catcher with the Minnesota Twins. “His power is down I think because of his inconsistencies at the plate, but we’re working on that now.” In addition to fine-tuning his hitting, Montero is also working on getting better behind the plate. According to Wynegar, he is making big strides defensively. “Behind the plate he has been pretty steady,” Wynegar said. “He is learning slowly and getting better and better in terms of game-calling and working with the pitchers. Overall he has been pretty solid.” Baseball America rated Montero as the top prospect in the Yankees organization in the preseason, and with those high expectations comes a lot of pressure. However, he has a strong support group in his teammates and coaches, especially Wynegar. “I was 20 years old and in the big leagues and he was 20 years old last year in Triple-A., so I knew what he was going through,” said Wynegar, who caught in the big leagues for 13 years. “I wanted him to know that I had his back and I knew how tough it was for him.” A catcher has to interact with all of the pitchers, the pitching coach and the manager. Together, they must develop a game plan for each start. It is a tall task for a 21-year-old catcher, but Yankees starting pitcher and fellow prospect D.J. Mitchell said that Montero is showing improvement as the season goes on. “He is doing a really good job with this

staff,” Mitchell said. “All of us need to learn what we need to do before a game and how to get as prepared as possible, and Monty is a big help.” Fellow catcher P.J. Pilittere is doing all he can to help Montero realize he needs to work hard, but have fun at the same time. “I think a lot of people need to realize he is still only 21 years old. It’s his second year in this league and people think he is a veteran,” Pilittere said. “I try to remind him when there is a coach on him or a coordinator on him that it is still just baseball and you still got to have fun. Sometimes you can have overload, and it’s not fun anymore.” Montero has the most fun when he and his teammates are winning. He said that his love for winning is one of the main factors that as a 16 year old in Guacara, Venezuela, he signed as a free agent with the franchise with the most World Series championships. “I wanted to play for the Yankees, because I knew who the Yankees were. They are the best organization,” said Montero, who signed with the Yankees for a reported $1.6 million bonus. “It was a long process. I worked really hard in the tryouts and thank God I am here.” It might not be long until the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre catcher gets the call to wear the pinstripes and play at Yankee Stadium. When the call finally comes, Wynegar wants to make sure Montero doesn’t try to go up there and do too much. “I think he is going to have to go up there and blend in with those guys. He’s not going to hit third, fourth or fifth. He may hit seventh, eighth or even ninth and that’s all right,” Wynegar said. “It’s not a bad thing, he will be able to blend in and not feel a lot of pressure and just go about his business and chip in.” Wynegar said the challenge of being a big leaguer will help Montero. “I said it before and I hate saying it, but sometimes I think he gets bored being in Triple-A,” the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre hitting coach said. “He needs another challenge and I think that challenge will be the big leagues.”

On This Date The Yankees franchise came to Moosic in 2007 and began its current streak of four consecutive International League North Division titles. That 2007 Scranton/WilkesBarre squad had strong pitching, as demonstrated by a record-setting pitching performance in late June. On June 26, 2007, the Yankees were in the midst of a record shutout streak after Matt DeSalvo and Chris Britton combined to blank Buffalo in a 5-0 victory at PNC Field. The shutout was the third in a row for the Yankees as their scoreless inning streak was pushed to 30 2⁄3 to break the previous franchise mark of 25 1⁄3 set by the Red Barons in 1989 and 2001. The streak in 2007 came to an end in the second inning of the next game, pushing the longest shutout streak in franchise history to 32 1⁄3 straight innings.

in a better-ball match play format, starting at 7 a.m. Heading into Saturday, Crossin and Briggs’ score of 66 tied them with Williams and Kluger, as well as the team of Mike Hirthler Jr. and William Burke. After finishing Friday’s play that included a stretch of five consecutive birdies on the back nine, Williams continued his team’s hot streak with back-to-back birdies to start the day. His second shot on the par-4, 426 yard No. 2 landed four feet from the pin to tap-in for birdie. “It felt really good. We started off fast,” he said. They settled for a bogey on No. 9, but Williams came up with another big shot on 12, when he reached the par-5 hole in just two strokes. He knocked down a 15footer for an eagle. Crossin and Briggs capped off a bogey-free round by sinking birdies on three of the last four holes tie Williams and Kluger. Although they missed a few birdie opportunities to stay with Williams and Kluger, Crossin and Briggs finished the front nine at an even par-35. “We didn’t do anything extraordinary for the first 14 holes,” said Crossin. “We tried not making any mistakes.”

The tandem of Hirthler Jr and Burke fell back to sixth place after posting a 1-over 71. The team of Santo LaFoca and Ross Brown finished with a 68, placing them in a tie with Rick Laneski and 2010 PIAA state champion Brandon Matthews just two shots behind the leaders. LaFoca highlighted his team’s round with an eagle on No. 4, knocking in his second shot from about 125 yards away.

PRO GOLF ROUNDUP

Amateur settles for 72, trails Traveler’s leader by 5 The Associated Press

CROMWELL, Conn. — UCLA star Patrick Cantlay tumbled down the leaderboard a day after shooting the lowest score by an amateur in PGA Tour history, while Fredrik Jacobson had a 7-under 63 on Saturday to take a one-stroke lead over Bryce Molder in the Traveler’s Championship. Jacobson closed with a 30foot birdie putt on No. 18 to cap his third straight bogey-free round. The Swede opened with rounds of 65 and 66 and the 63 left him at 16 under at TPC River Highlands. Moulder, who also opened with rounds of 65 and 66, shot a 64. Cantlay, 19, followed his course-record 60 with a 72 to fall five strokes behind Jacobson. Cantlay bogeyed the final two holes. An amateur hasn’t won a PGA Tour event since Phil Mickelson in the 1991 Northern Telecom Open in

Arizona. Jacobson, 36, has three European Tour victories, but is winless on the PGA Tour. At 194, Jacobson was a stroke off the tournament record for 54 holes. LPGA Championship PITTSFORD, N.Y. — Yani Tseng extended her lead at the LPGA Championship to five strokes, putting the 22-year-old star a round away from winning her fourth major title. The top-ranked Tseng shot a 5-under 67 to finish at 13-under 203 at Locust Hill Country Club. Americans Morgan Pressel (70) and Cindy LaCrosse (69) were tied for second, and Hee Young Park (72) was seven shots behind Tseng. Defending champion Cristie Kerr matched Tseng with a third-round best 67 to join Stacy Lewis (70), Meena Lee (70) and Paula Creamer (72) at 5 under.

Tseng, who turned 22 in January, was a round away from becoming the youngest to win four major golf tournaments. She also won LPGA Championship during her rookie-of-theyear season in 2008, when the event was played at Bulle Rock in Maryland, and took the Kraft Nabisco and Women’s British Open last year. Patty Berg was 23 when she won her fourth major in 1941, but before the LPGA was formed in 1950. Tiger Woods and Se Ri Pak were 24 when they won their fourth majors. Tseng has seven career LPGA Tour wins, and has already won twice this year, including the State Farm Classic two weeks ago. Dick’s Sporting Goods Open ENDICOTT, N.Y. — Mark Wiebe shot a 4-under 68 in the second round of the Dick’s Sporting Goods Open to take a two-stroke lead over John Hus-

ton in a bid for his second straight Champions Tour victory. Wiebe, who won two weeks ago at Rock Barn, had an 11under 133 total at En-Joie Golf Club. Huston had a 70. Jay Don Blake (68) was two strokes back. Local favorite Joey Sindelar (69), Bobby Wadkins (69), Nick Price (71), and Hal Sutton (70) were 7 under. BMW International Open MUNICH — England’s Mark Foster shot a 6-under 66 to take a two-stroke lead over Sergio Garcia, Retief Goosen and three others in the BMW International Open. Foster birdied four of the last seven holes to finish at 14-under 202. Garcia shot a 64, and Goosen had a 67. Robert Coles (65), Pablo Larrazabal (69) and George Coetzee (70) also were 12 under.

ite. Asked whether she was surprised by the odds, the seventhseeded American smiled widely and said: “I wouldn’t bet against me.” After hitting 10 aces and compiling a 32-9 edge in winners against Kirilenko, Williams termed the showing her “best I’ve played since I came back.” “I was a little more consistent, and I played my game more,” said Williams, trying to become the first woman since Steffi Graf in 1991-93 to win three consecutive Wimbledon titles. “Wasn’t as tight and nervous and uptight. I was able to relax more today.” She was part of a parade of past champions who breezed into the fourth round Saturday, joined by Roger Federer, Rafael Nadal and Maria Sharapova, who all were straight-set winners, too. Topseeded Caroline Wozniacki, seeking her first Grand Slam title, and two-time Australian Open champion Novak Djokovic, who is now 44-1 in 2011, also moved on. There were two upsets of some significance. Two-time French Open finalist Robin Soderling, who was seeded fifth, was dealing with stomach problems and bowed out meekly against 158th-ranked qualifier Bernard Tomic of Australia 6-1, 6-4, 7-5. Tomic is the first 18-year-old to reach the men’s fourth round at Wimbledon since Michael Chang and Goran Ivanisevic in 1990. “I was calm, but inside I was bursting. I tried not to show it to him. He was getting frustrated,” Tomic said. “The way I’ve been playing is really good. If I can keep it up, who knows?” No. 9 Gael Monfils lost to 93rdranked qualifier Lukasz Kubot of Poland 6-3, 3-6, 6-3, 6-3. Kubot is the first man from Poland to make it this far at Wimbledon since Wojtek Fibak in 1981. Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam tennis tournament that schedules a day off on the middle Sunday — and the only one that puts all 16 men’s and women’s fourth-round matches on the second Monday. When play resumes, these are some of the men’s matchups: No. 1 Nadal vs. No. 24 Juan Martin del Potro, the 2009 U.S. Open champion; No. 2 Djokovic vs. No. 19 Michael Llodra; No. 3 Federer vs. No. 18 Mikhail Youzhny; No. 4 Andy Murray vs. No. 17 Richard Gasquet; and No. 10 Mardy Fish, the last U.S. man left, vs. No. 6 Tomas Berdych, the 2010 Wimbledon runner-up. Fish advanced Saturday when Robin Haase retired in the fourth set, while Berdych wrapped up a rain-suspended victory over Alex Bogomolov Jr. of the United States. “It’s lonely,” said Fish, who’s been broken only once in three matches. Djokovic trashed his racket during a 6-4, 4-6, 6-3, 6-4 victory over 2006 Australian Open finalist Marcos Baghdatis in the day’s last match on Centre Court. “I can work on some things, but, my temper is my temper. My character is my character,” said Djokovic, whose 43-match winning streak ended with a loss to

Federer in the French Open semifinals. With Baghdatis serving at 30all while leading 4-3 in the second set, Djokovic pushed a shot long to lose the point. Standing at the baseline, he smashed his racket, hitting it once, twice, three times against the ground. As Djokovic walked to the sideline to trade in that now-damaged piece of equipment for a fresh one, Baghdatis chuckled to himself. Chair umpire James Keothavong — brother of British player Anne Keothavong — was less amused, warning Djokovic for racket abuse. Baghdatis won the next point, too, to pull ahead 5-3, and he served out the set with an ace two games later. But Djokovic pulled through, even as he occasionally paused to clutch at his left leg. “I’m not tired physically. I just didn’t feel good today. ... My legs weren’t working. You have those days,” Djokovic said. Nadal also acknowledged being slightly bothered by a muscle problem in his right leg during a 7-6 (6), 7-6 (5), 6-0 win over Gilles Muller of Luxembourg.

TRACK AND FIELD

Felix, McQuay win 400 titles

GRANVILLE Continued from Page 1C

Allyson Felix undecided on whether to run the distance at the world championships. By PAT GRAHAM AP Sports Writer

EUGENE, Ore. — Head so still her ponytail barely bobbed, arms swinging in perfect sync, Allyson Felix glided smoothly around the track, looking as if she has been running the 400 all her life. The big question: Will she run it at the world championships later this summer? Felix already has a spot in the 200 at the worlds thanks to her 2009 title, but remains uncertain about whether she also will attempt to run the longer distance, where she would go in as America’s newly crowned champion. She held off Francena McCorory at the finish Saturday at U.S. championships, winning in 50.40 seconds to become the first woman to win national titles in the 100, 200, and 400 over a career. Debbie Dunn was third. “I felt good throughout and I feel like I’m learning a lot, how my body feels throughout,” Felix said. The 200-400 double is not easy to pull off given all the rounds and the lack of recovery time between them. That’s why the decision for Daegu, South Korea, in late August remains a difficult one for Felix and her coach, Bobby Kersee. “That’s my biggest thing, the thing that makes it tough for me to decide,” Felix said of the quick turnaround. “I’m not going to be as fresh going into the 200. That’s the big deciding factor.” Especially since that’s her signature event. She doesn’t want fatigue to derail her shot at winning a fourth straight 200 title at worlds. Kersee said he will put Felix through some practices this week, see how she reacts, then make a decision. He was very impressed with how she looked, especially coming down the homestretch of the 400. Even some of the best runners start flailing a bit at the end of the one-lap race. Felix barely looked like she was breathing hard. “I don’t want to be cocky, but I really think she’s one of the best 400-meter runners in the world,” Kersee said. “She’ll kill me if I take the 200 away from her, so it’s going to be easier to tell her she can’t run the 400.” Going double the distance she normally runs, and fighting a strong wind in the back stretch, Felix seemed to get stronger as the race went along Saturday. That’s an encouraging sign. While she’s up in the air about going for the 200 and 400 at worlds, one of her top rivals has already pledged to try to do it. Sanya Richards-Ross has an automatic bid in the 400, but needs to qualify in the 200. She advanced to the semis with a solid race at the shorter distance Saturday. “I felt good. But I have to run faster than I did today to make the team,” Richards-Ross said. “I’m up for the challenge.” Up-and-comer Tony McQuay of the University of Florida won the men’s 400 by blowing past former Olympic and world champion Jeremy Wariner over the final100 meters. Wariner faded but held off Greg Nixon for second. The win over Wariner had McQuay making bold predictions for worlds. “I want to break the world record. I’ve got my mind set on that,” he said. Lots of folks have for many years. In fact, Wariner has promised himself a new Ferrari should he ever break Michael Johnson’s nearly 12-year-old record.

Hanover Twp. fighter prevails Peters wins amateur bout on Cage Fight 8 card. Owens of Freeland among pro winners. By TOM ROBINSON For the Times Leader

SCRANTON – Gary Peters showed what might have been the difference his bout in the opening seconds Friday night. The Hanover Township fighter edged Dustin Wentz of Hazleton in a close but unanimous decision in their amateur welterweight bout as part of Cage Fight 8 at Riverfront Sports in Scranton. Peters landed the first left hand he threw and followed the punch with a quick takedown. Wentz fought back, including landing several punches while he was on bottom in the second round, but Peters wound up winning, 30-27 on one card and 2928 on the other two. “I’m getting more comfortable on my feet with the addition of my boxing coach, Chris Mills,” Peters said after improving to 5-2. Professional Chase Owens and amateur Dave Spadell Jr., both middleweights from Freeland, were among the winners while Kingston’s Josh Blockus and Hazleton’s Wayne Jurus each improved impressive ama-

teur records with victories. Owens (11-2) won one of the four professional fights on a card that also included nine amateur bouts. He won a unanimous decision that was 29-28 on all three cards. “It was a tough battle,” Owens said. “I knew he was a stand-up striker. “I tried to stand up with him, but he had good hands.” Owens grew stronger, particularly on the ground, as the bout progressed. Spadell used superior boxing ability to win an otherwise close middleweight fight with Jason Colarusso of Moosic. He knocked Colarusso down once in each round, including with one punch in the third. Blockus, a heavyweight, improved to 3-0 by ruining the debut of Scranton’s Mukhielelin Milazov with a unanimous decision. Blockus had Milazov on his back for more than half the bout and was able to withstand a series of kicks by Milazov in the third round. Jurus won an all-Hazleton welterweight bout when he fought off a gushing bloody nose that started early in the fight. Jurus (4-1) controlled the first two rounds and held on for a split decision over Brandon Cruz. “Toward the end of the first and third with one out off Wordekemper in the eighth, but Flores got a strikeout and a grounder to get out of the jam.

Ind. basketball standout survives 2nd plane crash By JEFF KAROUB Associated Press

DETROIT (AP) — A standout Indiana high school basketball player with the promise of playing at the University of Michigan is fighting for his life after surviving the second plane crash of his young life. Austin Hatch, 16, of Fort Wayne, Ind., was in critical condition Saturday in a northern Michigan hospital after the Friday evening crash that killed his father, Dr. Stephen Hatch, and his stepmother, Kim. Austin and his pilot father had survived a 2003 crash that killed Austin’s mother and two siblings. “He never talked about (the previous crash) one time,” said Dan Kline, the basketball coach at Canterbury School in Fort Wayne, Ind. “I’m sure he carried it inside.” Kline told The Associated

Press that the next 24 to 48 hours are going to be critical, and described Austin as an A student who is physically and mentally strong — someone “who can handle things.” “He’s a very mature young man,” he said. “You’d never know he was 16 years old.” The teen was “the apple of his dad’s eye,” and Stephen Hatch took great delight and pride in his son’s athletic accomplishments, Dr. G. David Bojrab, a colleague and close friend of Austin’s father, told The Associated Press. Austin, a junior at Canterbury, committed earlier this month to play basketball at Michigan, where his father and mother went to school. He told the Journal Gazette of Fort Wayne for a story published last week that he talked to Michigan coach John Beilein by phone

and accepted a full-ride scholarship. It was the first day that NCAA coaches could call recruits for the 2013 class, the newspaper said. “It was a very special moment for me,” Hatch told the newspaper. “There was no reason to wait. There’s nothing I don’t like about their program, and I couldn’t turn it down.” Kline, who spoke with Michigan coaches before the offer, told the newspaper it was Austin’s “dream” to play for Michigan. “They didn’t come right out and say it, but they told me he was a top priority in the state of Indiana,” he said. “They kept dropping hints.” Kline said Saturday the team is stunned. “Right now, we’re just trying to collect our thoughts and stick together,” he said. “They’re a close-

knit group.” Bojrab said the Hatches were flying to their summer home on Walloon Lake in Michigan’s northwestern Lower Peninsula, where Stephen Hatch and his brothers all owned property, when his single-engine plane flew into a garage near the Charlevoix Municipal Airport. It was the same home Stephen Hatch and the family were returning from nearly eight years ago when they crashed in Indiana. “He was such a strong proponent of flying and teaching people to fly. ... I think he felt compelled to continue his passion,” said Bojrab, a partner with Hatch in Pain Management Associates in Fort Wayne. “He felt compelled to show people that accidents do happen. He didn’t want people to look in the other direction.”

with physical disabilities that prevent them from playing, as Granville refers it to, “stand-up hockey.” Players sit on sleds with blades underneath and propel themselves with two short hockey sticks that have picks on the bottom. “It’s pretty similar to regular hockey; there’s not much difference at all,” Granville said. “It’s a great sport and more people should know about it. I’m sure a lot of people in the disabled community would be interested in it.’’[ An in-house sled hockey league and a travel squad are scheduled for later this year, according to Revolution “Sled Ice Centre general man- hockey ager Ed Von helped me Lumm.

Von Lumm said that “it’ll open up doors” for wounded veterans and the disabled “to play a sport they didn’t know they could.” The Revolution Ice Centre is hosting a 15-team tournament Aug. 27-28 that will feature teams from Pennsylvania, New York and New Jersey. The travel squad will be affiliated with USA Hockey and play in its Atlantic Division against teams from Buffalo, N.Y., and New England. Despite the program being in its early stages, Von Lumm said he and Granville have received much interest in sled hockey from the disabled community. “There are kids who are out there who watch hockey every single day and say, ‘I wish I could do it,’ ” Von Lumm said. “They don’t know about this just yet. (Sled hockey) helped Earl. There are people right in our neighborhood that we can do the same for.” Granville approached Von Lumm with the idea of starting a sled hockey league after returning from a year-long stint at Washington’s Walter Reed Army Medical Center. He said when he came to Walter Reed after his injury, “I thought it was going to be a long road.” In his first day in physical therapy, he saw a soldier missing a leg leaping hurdles. He recalled “seeing that made me think this isn’t going to be so bad.” Soon, Granville was introduced to sled hockey as part of his physical therapy and immediately took to the sport he had never participated in before. “The therapists like to push forward soldiers with disabilities to get involved with some type of sport, whether it be snowboarding or kayaking or scuba diving or wheelchair basketball,” said Granville, who played soccer at Carbondale Area High School. “I tried out hockey and some other sports. Hockey was what I went back to.” Granville played competitively for the USA Warriors – a professional sled hockey team comprised of wounded veterans in Washington. Last month, he received an associate’s degree from Lackawanna College and said he plans on attending the University of Scranton this year to study counseling and human services. His career focus is to specialize on veterans’ affairs, and he is planning on getting local disabled veterans to join the sled hockey program. Regardless of their disability, interested players can email Von Lumm at erv@skatenepa.com or visit http:// www.skatenepa.com for more details. “We’re looking to make this sled hockey no different in the minds of everyone else than regular hockey,” Von Lumm said. “Before Earl walked through the door, we didn’t know who Earl was. It’s changed how everyone thinks here.”

Lynch Construction scored seven runs in the top of the final inning, and a two-run home run by Hank Buczynski, of Spring Brook Township, capped the scoring before a pop-out ended the frame.

Thinking it had tied the game after Buczynski’s homer, Lynch Construction took the field in the bottom of the seventh before officials noted it came up short by a run. “If the IRS was auditing the scorekeeping, some people would be in trouble,” joked Buczynski, whose team fell to Allentown’s Mountainville Fire Co. 17-

14 in its first game. Fittingly, Lynch Construction is competing in the inaugural running of the Summer Classic – a qualifying tournament for the SSWC international championships held in Phoenix. The tournament is Pennsylvania’s first qualifying tournament since 2008. It will compete for the Class AAA 50-plus champion-

It gives us a huge advantage.” Lynch Construction is reveling in the new competition. Buczynski hit three home runs in his first SSWC tournament.

Ex-Lion sees limited action as Miners fall NANTICOKE – Former Penn State running back Austin Scott’s semipro debut with the North East PA Miners brought a crowd of approximately 1,250 people to Saturday’s season opener at Nanticoke High School. Scott, who was signed by the Scranton-based team on Thursday, saw limited action, running for 15 yards on six carries and catching a pass for minus-4 yards. The Electric City Chargers used a strong running attack in a 44-7 victory over the Miners. Many Nittany Lions fans made the trek to the season opener to see Austin suit up for the Miners. Art Zimmerman, a Penn State season ticket holder, traveled from Delano in Schuylkill County to see Austin. “I saw it on the news and figured it’d give me another chance to see him play,” he said. “I was always a fan of his in college.” Scott was a highly touted bluechip recruit out of Parkland outside Allentown and rushed for a state-record 3,853 yards and 53 touchdowns in his senior year. USA Today named him a secondteam All-American after he was named the Class 4A Player of the Year in 2002. He had a mediocre career with the Nittany Lions before sexual assault allegations that were later

WILKES-BARRE – Last year, Pete Lynch decided he wanted a crack at the big boys. Lynch relished his opportunity against some of the region’s top senior softball teams as Swoyersville-based Lynch Construction went 1-2 on Saturday at The City of Wilkes-Barre Summer Classic in Kirby Park. With no local senior softball team competing at the national level, Lynch rounded up several players from the Birchwood, Kingston and Wilkes-Barre Recreation leagues. This marks the softball team’s first season in Senior Softball World Championship competition. “We didn’t want to sit around,” Lynch said. “We wanted to play some other teams from around the country. We may be in our 50s, but we like to play as much as we can.” Lynch Construction earned its only win of the tournament when it defeated Norristown’s TNT Sports Club by a19-18 score in its final game of the day. In its second game, Lynch Construction was forced to play outside its classification and nearly defeated majors-ranked Northern Ohio Printing, falling 21-20. The SSWC has a fourtiered rating system based on

WRIGHT TWP. -- Tom Alexander went 2-for-3 at the plate, hitting a home run and driving in three runs, and also was the winning pitcher to lead Swoyersville to an 8-6 victory over Mountain Post in Saturday’s American Legion baseball. Nick Hogan also went 2-for-3 at the plate, hitting a double; and Kyle Lewis went 2-for-3, with two doubles. For Mountain Post, Zachary Berg went 3-for-4 with two RBI; and Michael Sweeney went 2for-4, also with two RBI.

dropped ended his career in Happy Valley Whenever he entered the game, Scott received a rousing applause from Miners fans. He carried the ball for a10-yard rush for a first down to end the first quarter. Zimmerman said that he will probably return to more Miners games to see a player he said was short-changed in State College. He said, “I think he got the shaft at Penn State to put it bluntly.” Other fans who came out to see Scott’s debut were less than impressed by his football career. “It’s sad that he’s come from Happy Valley to playing semipro in Nanticoke,” said Ryan Conway, of Kingston. “I came to see how big he is and how fast he is compared to the rest of the guys out on the field.” Joe Lapkoski, of Waymart, said that it’s too early to judge Scott’s abilities in the Major League Football Conference because he was signed two days before the start of the season and has had limited time to get adjusted to the playbook. “I think he’s pretty good for just being here,” said Lapkoski. “I thought I’d be more impressed, given where he’s come from, but there’s a lot that goes into it that he missed out on.” Scott and the Miners were outperformed by the Chargers’ offensive attack that totaled 37 consec-

The NEPA Miners opened their semipro football season on a down note Saturday night as the Electric City Chargers posted a 44-7 victory in a non-league game at Nanticoke High School. Former Penn State running back Austin Scott made his debut for the Miners, rushing six times for 16 yards. The Miners took a 7-0 lead in the first quarter after linebacker Brad Allen scored on a 10-yard fumble return. But from then on, Electric City took control. Quarterback Tim McFarland threw his first of four TD passes to put the Chargers on the board. After Craig Heywood scored on a 55-yard punt return, McFarland hooked up three more times, including a 78-yard TD pass to Earl Chapman and a 79-yard score to Shamaar Coates. Miners quarterback Justin Piontkowski connected on 9-of-22 attempt for 79 yards. He led the rushing with five carries for 22 yards. Nate Bowden led the receiving with four catches for 42 yards. The Miners are off next weekend. They will host the Red City Outlaws on July 9 in another non-league contest.

Union downs Chivas USA The Associated Press

CHESTER, Pa. — Danny Mwanga scored from 23 yards out in the 82nd minute in the Philadelphia Union’s 3-2 comeback victory over Chivas USA on Saturday night. Carlos Ruiz and Veljko Paunovic also scored in the second half for the Union (7-4-5), who took sole possession of first place in the Eastern Conference while snapping a four-game winless streak. Philadelphia remained undefeated at home, improving to 5-0-4. Michael Umana and Justin Braun scored for Chivas (4-7-5), which dropped its third straight. Ruiz’s goal from 8 yards out in the 68th minute put the Union up 2-1, but Braun answered 9 minutes later. Mwanga, who missed Union’s scoreless draw against Sporting Kansas City on Wednesday night because of a knee injury, took a cross from Sebastien Le Toux and rifled it low and into the right side of the net past diving goalkeeper Dan Kennedy. Chivas USA opened the scoring in the 27th minute when Umana scored on a header from close range off an assist from Ben Zemanski.

was owed an apology. “I thought that was interesting because he just drove straight through our right rear, gave us a flat and we finished 32nd,” Busch said. “You have your bad days. You have your moments of beating and banging. It’s one of those things where the lines keep getting drawn further and further toward the aggressive side here at Sonoma.” Defending race-winner Jimmie Johnson, the five-time reigning champion, said the road course racing breeds an aggression and style so different from a regular race. NASCAR races on road courses twice a year. “When you’re in the center of the pack, it’s just an energy that exists when somebody makes a questionable move on you and your excitement level goes up, and now you make a move on a guy and it just kind of breeds this style of racing and we’re going to see it,” Johnson said. “The passing zones, drivers are so aggressive in defending the passing zones and braking zones that you have to find a different way by or just bomb it in there and eighttires-are-better-than-four mentality and hope that you make it. I think there’s a very good chance of a lot of action taking place.” It will be easy for tempers to explode early and often today, which is why Kyle Busch is trying to take a more Zen focus into the race. “You definitely have to be a lot more forgiving in different corners,” Kyle Busch said. .” But Tony Stewart, who complained last week at Michigan that drivers were “acting like a bunch of idiots” on restarts, is willing to wager today will be exciting in a way Stewart doesn’t want to see.

SONOMA, Calif. — The winding road course in Sonoma is a perfect fit with the serenity and peacefulness of the Northern California wine country. All that charm went to the wayside last year when 43 stock cars fired up their engines and abandoned the idea that racing around the twisting 11-turn, 1.99mile Infineon Raceway requires finesse, patience and maybe even a bit of dignity. What ensued was an eye-popping demolition derby as drivers ran each other over, knocked cars out of the way, and collected names for further retribution. The man at the center of the brouhaha was Jeff Gordon, the very prince of the valley. “Disaster. It was just one of those terrible days where I made a lot of mistakes, no doubt made a lot of people unhappy and been trying to move on from it ever since,” Gordon said of last year’s race. “Thanks for bringing it up, though.” Although the five-time Sonoma winner finished fifth last season, he left a trail of angry drivers in his wake, with Kurt Busch at the head of the line that included Clint Bowyer, Martin Truex Jr. and Elliott Sadler. “It was an off-day for Jeff,” Busch said. “He apologized to a handful of guys afterward and for some reason (he) pinpointed me, excluded apologizing to me.” Countered Gordon, “I’ve tried to apologize to the ones that I really made mistakes with. There were some racing incidents that went on that day that was just racing and that you just move on and race one another however you race one another.” Busch, a year later, believes he

CNN’s first sports anchor, Nick Charles dies at 64

The Associated Press

ATLANTA — Nick Charles, a former taxi driver who became CNN’s first sports anchor, died Saturday after a two-year struggle with bladder cancer, the cable network reported. He died peacefully at his New Mexico home, his wife Cory told the network. He was 64. Nicholas Charles Nickeas grew up in Chicago, working late-night jobs in high school to help his family, according to CNN. He eventually went to college to study communications and drove a taxi to help pay his tuition. He was still driving taxis in 1970 when he landed his first gig with WICS in Springfield, Ill. That’s when he adopted the name Nick Charles at the urging of his news director, the network said. Charles later left Springfield to work at local stations in Baltimore and Washington and then

began at Atlanta-based CNN on the network’s first day in 1980. He made his name before a national audience teaming with Fred Hickman for almost 20 years on “Sports Tonight,” a daily highlight show that battled with ESPN for viewers. Charles became such a popular TV personality that Topps put his face on a trading card, CNN reported. “We clicked from the beginning,” Hickman told CNN in an interview. “In television, you always have personality conflicts. Nick and I never had one.’’ In an interview in March, he told the network his message was to “never give up on life.” “People won’t remember who you are or what you said. It’s really about: Are you going to be remembered as a good person?” he said. “That’s victory to me. That’s success.”

Prinz plans to retire from the national team after the World Cup. “I am just very happy that the stadium is going to be full and that I can be there in my last major tournament,” she said. Germany will be missing forward Martina Mueller with a hamstring injury. “The mood is good, we are pleased to get going,” said Germany coach Silvia Neid, whose team has spent more than two months at a training camp. “We are playing against a very strong rival that has good attacking players,” Neid said. “It’s always important to start a tournament with a win.” Germany has won all its previous nine games against Canada, the last one 5-0 a year ago.

NHL DRAFT

WHL players first to go on second day Canadian and Swedish players dominate the selections in the first round. By DAVE CAMPBELL AP Sports Writer

ST. PAUL, Minn. — The NHL draft has resumed, and the Western Hockey League is supplying more top talent. The Edmonton Oilers made the first pick Saturday, taking defenseman David Musil to start the second round. The St. Louis Blues, without a first-round selection Friday, grabbed right wing Ty Rattie with the 32nd pick. Musil and Rattie played in the WHL last season. The Oilers opened the draft Friday by taking center Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, the first WHL player to go first overall since 1996. The host Minnesota Wild drew a cheer from the crowd by dealing their third- and fourth-round picks to the Vancouver Canucks and moving into the second round to take left wing Mario Lu-

cia at No. 60. Lucia played at Wayzata High School in the Twin Cities area, and his father Don is head coach at the University of Minnesota. Minnesota is home to a multitude of Scandinavian descendants, particularly Sweden. So this was the perfect place for Swedes to dominate the top of the NHL draft. For the first time in league history, four players born in Sweden were among the top 10 selections. There were a record-tying six Swedes taken in the first round Friday night, matching the totals from 1993 and 2009. “It’s really cool,” said defenseman Jonas Brodin, who went to the hometown Wild with the 10th pick. Left wing Gabriel Landeskog was selected second by the Colorado Avalanche. Defenseman Adam Larsson went fourth to the New Jersey Devils. Mika Zibanejad was taken with the sixth pick by the Ottawa Senators. “I know those guys. They’re really good guys. It’s very good for Sweden,” Brodin said.

The seven top-10 picks from Sweden in the last three years matched the number of top-10 Swedes over the 23 years before that. Clearly, the talent pool in the northern European hockey hotbed is continuing to grow. Half of the 30 first-rounders hail from Canada, including the first pick by the Edmonton Oilers, center Ryan Nugent-Hopkins of the Western Hockey League. Five were Americans, with one each from Denmark, Finland, Russia and Switzerland. Zibanejad, if he makes the team, will join a couple of Swedes on the Senators roster, including captain Daniel Alfredsson. Landeskog had 36 goals in 53 games last season for the Kitchener Rangers of the Ontario Hockey League. Larsson played two full seasons for Skelleftea and was the third blue-liner in Swedish Elite League history to make his debut at age 16. Zibanejad — born in Stockholm to a Finnish mother and an Iranian father — played for Djurgarden. Brodin played for Farjestad.

Boats prepare to take off for the start of the bass fishing tournament on the Susquehanna River last Wednesday. Lynn Morris and Rob Rosencrans regularly fish as a team in this weekly event that continues into the fall.

Fishing deepens their bond By TOM VENESKY tvenesky@timesleader.com

Rob Rosencrans doesn’t have to worry about his wife getting on his back when he goes fishing. Most of the time, she’ll be casting right alongside him. Since Rosencrans and his fiancee Lynda Morris, first met last May, they have become more than a future husband and wife. They have evolved into a bass fishing team. And it happened quickly. Other than a few outings with her father when she was a child, Morris really hadn’t fished before. Rosencrans, on the other hand, is a die-hard smallmouth angler and vice president of the Suskie Bassmasters. The two were matched on a dating website, and it was inevitable that the topic of fishing would come up at some point. Morris just didn’t realize how soon. “A week after we met, he pulls up in my driveway with a boat and said we’re going fishing,” Morris said. “That was our second date.” And the start of a relationship made stronger through fishing. Today, Rosencrans and Morris fish as a team for a Monday night tournament on the river, the Suskie Bassmasters Wednesday tournament at Nesbitt Park and the Lackawanna County Bassmasters night tourney at Lake Wallenpaupack. They are also on the pro staffs of several fishing equipment manufacturers and organizations, such as Pink Fishing – an angling apparel company that benefits breast cancer research.

THEIR ANGLING COMMITMENT Lynda Morris and Rob Rosencrans are on the pro staffs of numerous fishing equipment companies and organizations. They have also developed a website to promote their angling team and offer advice to other anglers about fishing in general. Check it out at www.teamrosencrans.org.

Last year was Morris’ first on the tournament bass circuit, and she fared pretty well competing in 26 events. She finished in seventh place at the Suskie Bassmasters Championship and fourth in the Monday night team tournament championship, with Rosencrans of course. Not bad for a first-timer. “She learned pretty quick,” Rosencrans

said. “The big misconception is most guys think women can’t or don’t want to fish. But women can be just as good at fishing as men, or better. “As a partner, she’s been great.” Morris and Rosencrans plan to fish in more than 60 tournaments together this year. But that doesn’t count the time that they’ll load up the boat and head out to the river at 5 a.m. to cast for smallmouths and simply spend some quality time together. It’s something that Morris – who shared her hobby of fencing with Rosencrans – is glad she tried. “These are our hobbies so we should share them with each other,” Morris said. “I do think fishing made our relationship stronger simply because it allows us to spend time together. We’ll take the boat out at 5 a.m. and hit the water, and that’s our

getaway.” The fishing couple hit the water about three times a week, Rosencrans said. For Rosencrans, every time he is on the water with Morris is confirmation that he made the right choice with his future wife. Not only is Morris 100 percent supportive of his angling habit, but she’s also just as passionate about it. “I never expected it and it’s been a very nice surprise,” Rosencrans said. “It never even crossed my mind that we would turn out to be a husband-and-wife fishing team. But Lynda is very competitive and she likes that aspect of the tournaments. She’s still learning the sport and we’re growing together through fishing.”

Lynda Morris and Rob Rosencrans shove off to officiate the Suskie Bassmasters Tournament on the Susquehanna River last Wednesday.

s I kicked out six pheasant chicks while mowing a hay field last week, I had a hard time believing that lack of habitat is the primary reason behind the decline of pheasants in Pennsylvania. The field was thick with orchard grass and timothy, and the pheasants were big enough to fly out well ahead of the tractor and land in the safety of a nearby diversion ditch. The young pheasants benefited from the wet weather that delayed the hay mowing season long enough to give them extra time to grow in the safety of the thick field. But even after all the hay fields are cut, I continue to see pheasants – male and female, chicks and adults. It seems the birds – probably the descendants of those released from a backyard pen years ago – have found a way to survive and thrive in the middle of an active farm. They do so by utilizing the thick fields of hay in the spring and early summer. Once the hay is cut, the pheasants do quite well residing in overgrown diversion ditches, cornfields and hedgerows. It’s not much, but apparently it’s enough. Evidence that pheasants can survive on scant cover doesn’t exist only in Pennsylvania. South Dakota – considered by many to be the top pheasant state in the country -- also has places where the birds survive in little cover. Sure, the cornfields in South Dakota are vast and harbor a ton of pheasants. But once the fields are combined they are nothing more but a barren landscape of corn stubble. So where do the pheasants go? During a hunting trip there years ago, we found plenty of pheasants in the narrow cover of roadside ditches and wind shelterbelts of trees. Once again, they didn’t need much. So what is the main reason for the pheasant decline in Pennsylvania – if it isn’t only loss of habitat? It could be hunting pressure – too much of it. During the pheasant boom in the late 1960s through the 1970s, it wasn’t uncommon for more than one million pheasants to be harvested in Pennsylvania each hunting season. It also wasn’t uncommon for the Pennsylvania Game Commission to sell well over one million hunting licenses each year either. In 1971, for example, more than 1.3 million pheasants were taken and 1.13 million hunting licenses were sold. Back then, the majority of hunters pursued small game – mainly rabbits and pheasants. It’s a trend that continued into the 1980s until pheasant numbers began to decline drastically. Still, while pheasant numbers dropped, hunting license sales remained over the one million mark. The hunting pressure didn’t drop right away with the decrease in pheasant populations. Throughout the last 10 years the pheasant harvest has dropped to well under 200,000. Likewise, the number of pheasant hunters has also decreased to 80,116 as of 2008. It’s a far cry from the million-plus numbers of decades ago. But, in my opinion, the loss of habitat alone isn’t to blame. Perhaps the hunting pressure was just too much for too long. There is hope that things will rebound. The Wild Pheasant Recovery Area in Columbia, Montour and Northumberland counties is proving that wild birds can re-establish in Pennsylvania again. The PGC will also increase its pheasant allocation next year from 100,000 to 200,000. Sure, we don’t have the amount of small game habitat that once covered the state, but we also don’t have one million hunters chasing pheasants anymore. Maybe just putting more birds into the habitat that we do have left is all that’s needed. Tom Venesky covers the outdoors for The Times Leader. Reach him at tvenesky@timesleader.com

COLLEGE WORLD SERIES

SEC rivals to battle for title South Carolina won two of three games against Florida during the regular season. By ERIC OLSON AP Sports Writer

OMAHA, Neb. — No one argues that the Southeastern Conference is the class of college baseball this year. Now it’s time to find out who truly is best in the league, and nation, when defending champion South Carolina and Florida meet in the College World Series finals starting Monday. The Gamecocks (53-14) and Gators (53-17) shared the SEC Eastern Division title with a Vanderbilt team that also made it to the CWS’ final four. Florida won the conference tournament, beating Vanderbilt, and South Carolina owns a record 14 consecutive NCAA tournament victories. South Carolina won two of three games against Florida in the regular season, but that was all the way back in March. Their finals matchup marks the first time since 1998 that two teams from the same conference will square off for the title. “We know it’s not easy. We know there’s a long way to go in this thing,” Gators coach Kevin O’Sullivan said. “But you have to get there. So we’re excited for playing for the national championship, but we’re going to be business as usual for the next couple days.” O’Sullivan hasn’t announced a starting pitcher for Game 1. Sophomore Hudson Randall (11-3) and freshman Karsten Whitson (8-0) are available. Randall earned the win in the Gators’ CWS opener against Texas on June 18, and Whitson (8-0) started against Vanderbilt on June 20. Gamecocks coach Ray Tanner said he was leaning toward starting freshman Forrest Koumas (6-1), who last pitched June 5 in regionals. South Carolina’s biggest pitching concern is the availability of closer Matt Price, who threw 90 pitches and got out of three bases-loaded situations in a season-long 52⁄3 innings in Friday’s 3-2, 13-inning win over Virginia. “What are the chances of rain

on Monday,” Tanner said, laughing. “We’re certainly going to be able to use two days (off), but a third might not be bad.” The forecast calls for a 40 percent chance of scattered storms on Monday. The first CWS at TD Ameritrade Park already has had its share of weather problems, with a strong thunderstorm causing the suspension of a game last Monday and showers causing a 68-minute rain delay the next day. “We have to try to get Matt turned around as best we can in the next few days and go from there,” Tanner said. “At this point you just try to figure it out as you go and do the best you can.” South Carolina’s path to the finals has been much smoother this year. A year ago the Gamecocks lost their first game here before becoming the first team in CWS history to roll off six straight wins. They swept UCLA in the finals. The Gamecocks won three straight to advance to this year’s finals, though it took until their final at-bat to win two of the games. “I coached for a long time and was unable to get to Omaha as a head coach,” Tanner said. “And

then we were here a few times. It’s something you never take for granted. We played in the finals last year and we got back there again. I’m grateful.” The Gamecocks have allowed two earned runs in 31 innings (0.58 ERA). Michael Roth has surrendered just one earned run in 14 1-3 innings and Price, the closer, has given up none in 6 2-3 innings. South Carolina is batting .274 in its three games, best in a CWS field that has struggled to generate offense in the spacious new stadium where the wind regularly blows in. The Gators were swept by Texas in 2005 in their only other appearance in the CWS finals. Last year they went 0-2 in Omaha. With 100 wins in 2010-11, the Gators are in the best two-year stretch in program history. The Gators are batting .265 here compared with .311 the rest of the season. They came in with a nation-leading 67 home runs.

For most of us, today will offer a very comfortable combination of temperature and humidity for outdoor work and play. A northerly wind will help to keep temperatures a few degrees below normal, and despite some cloudiness the day should remain rain free. Our next chance for rain will come Monday night and on Tuesday in the form of showers and storms. After that, some really fine summer weather will move in by Thursday, but it may not last through the holiday weekend. A surge of hot weather may precede showers over the weekend with cooler conditions by the Fourth of July.

U.S. aims to increase rare earths extraction By SCOTT CANON McClatchy Newspapers

ELK CREEK, Neb. — Each new 3,000-foot hole bored into the rolling hills of southeastern Nebraska potentially drills away at a troubling Chinese monopoly. The drills pull up cylinders of rock in search of exotic minerals like neodymium, praseodymium and ytterbium. Those “rare earths” are critical ingredients of your car’s catalytic converter and your computer’s flat-screen display, of smartphones and smart bombs. They make your Prius purr and lasers shine. In an age of the digital and the virtual, they are the “hard” in hardware. In 2010, the world mined 133,000 metric tons of rare earths. Of that, all but 3,000 tons came from China. In the United States there is but one mine — in Mountain Pass, Calif. — responsible for the entire country’s output. “There is oil in the Middle East; there is rare earth in China,” said Chinese leader Deng Xiaoping in 1992. The search for rare-earth-rich veins below the corn and soybean fields near Elk Creek could be the beginning of a long American creep back into the mining of ores that form the innards of high technology. “We could go without this stuff,” said Matt Joeckel, a University of Nebraska geologist who also works for the state’s Conservation and Survey Division, “if we cared to go back to maybe a 1940s level of technology.” Global demand for rare earths is projected to climb 8 percent a year, while the Chinese have effectively clamped down the growth of supply at zero. A U.S. Energy Department report last year warned that supplies are “at risk” of disruption. Limits on Chinese exports could increasingly mean that high-tech equipment made with rare earths will only be made in China.

Rick Arnold stands in front of a home he constructed in Blueberry Hill Estates in Duryea. Arnold was building five homes a year five years ago. But the recession and housing bust has made it difficult for homebuilders nationwide. Arnold built one home last year and has only one under contract this year.

HOUSING BUBBLE Local home-building companies feel effects of the real estate strain By ANDREW M. SEDER

aseder@timesleader.com

or two decades, Rick Arnold never looked for work beyond a 45-mile comfort circle around his Mountain Top home building company’s headquarters. But a sluggish economy combined with lending institutions tightening of loans has put a strain on the real estate market and caused people like Arnold to think outside the box. • Arnold went from building four or five custom homes a year as recently as 2007 to having one home constructed last year and one under contract this year. • He’s made up for the lack of new home demand by taking work that a few years ago he would have almost certainly turned down, such as small additions, commercial offices and even odd jobs like replacing doors. And he’s been going throughout Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania for work, as far away as Williamsport, Danville and Gibson, and in some cases doing jobs on his own, without a work crew.

“You have to be willing to roll up your sleeves and travel,” Arnold said. He built six additions last year and expects to do the same this year. He has one foundation poured, in the Blueberry Hill Estates development in Duryea. “Typically by July we have three or four foundations in the ground and we’re looking at next year’s projects,” Arnold said. What’s happening in Luzerne County is being repeated in all corners of the nation, and in places like Nevada, California and Florida it’s much worse. An index that measures builders’ sentiment for their industry fell three points in June to 13, the National Association of Home Builders said. That’s the lowest level in nine months. And it’s just five points above the lowest reading on record, in January 2009. That’s when the industry was absorbing the brunt of the housing bust. Any reading below 50 indicates negative sentiment about the market. The index hasn’t reached that level since April 2006, the peak of the housing boom. Joe Peterson, owner of Hanover Homes North in Wilkes-Barre, serves on the board of the National Association of Home Builders, and from what he’s seen, “Wilkes-Barre is pretty much the norm.” In 2006, Hanover built close to 100 homes. Last year it was closer to 35. This year is in the same ballpark, Peterson said.

Homebuilders Joe Peterson, left, and Rick Arnold stand at the entrance to Blueberry Hill Estates in Duryea. Like homebuilders across the country, the two said times are tough and their companies are doing much less work than they were just five years ago. Blueberry Hill Estates is one of the few developments in the county where work is ongoing; both men have built homes there and also have homes under construction now.

Like Arnold, he said Hanover Homes has found itself “doing things that we don’t normally do: a hunting lodge in Wyoming County, an addition in Scranton. We’re bidding on stuff we ordinarily would never bid on.” He cited a salt shed as one example and noted 18 companies, many of which likely never before built a salt shed, placed a bid. “A lot of us had our hands full with all the work we could handle. But when the

slack ran out of the rope, we all started looking around,” Arnold said. Peterson said fewer projects are planned for this year and he sees no light at the end of the tunnel. “I don’t see it getting much better. Over the next six months I don’t see things turning around,” Peterson said. He said he doesn’t even want to be See BUBBLE, Page 4D

See DEALS, Page 3D

our small business is the low bidder on a big government contract. But the phone rings before you are awarded the job and a voice on the other end says you won’t be doing the work, it’s going to someone else. You’re given no further explanation. So your plans to order materials and hire extra help evaporate, along with the profit you would have made and reinvested in your business. That’s what happened a few years ago to Sew-Fine Draperies & Interiors in Luzerne, and though he can’t be sure, business owner Dick Evans suspects the contract went to someone who greased the palms of elected officials. “It would have made our year,” Evans said of the job in Lackawanna County. “We would have needed about four people for three to four weeks just to install the stuff.” That’s just one example of how corruption and crony capitalism stunt economic growth in this region. The reasons are quite basic, said Misericordia University business professor John Sumansky. “Competitive conditions require good information and result in superior outcomes,” he said. When the system works well, “people pay for what they get and get what they pay for.” But when corruption and favoritism rule, he added, you’re not sure you’re getting the quality you paid for, whether that’s in a teacher or a new set of drapes. He cited one study that estimated corruption adds 5-15 percent to taxpayer costs for government operations, figures he thinks may be low. Evans has seen this effect firsthand. His bids for Luzerne County work often included writing the specifications, measuring and identifying fabrics, “even down to the colors.” But he never got the contracts, while those who did often ignored the guidelines. That’s understandable, Sumansky said: “Somebody’s paying for things not delivered” because the cost of payoffs has to be covered. Sumansky has witnessed what happens when a society collapses under the weight of official corruption during stints in the Czech Republic, Romania and most recently Macedonia. In Romania, he said, corruption is so rampant and ingrained that no one trusts any institution, so much of the economy operates in a black market that has its own problems with trust. As a result, “they’re still lagging way, way behind.” The fundamental problem, Sumansky said, is that governments in that region have not been structured to serve the public good. Unfortunately, we’re learning that has been true in some parts of Northeastern Pennsylvania and we’re likely paying for it in ways we don’t see and can hardly imagine. But it’s safe to say that some local businesses are less successful than they deserve to be and that the “climate of corruption” that’s been exposed makes it harder to attract new employers, something we certainly could use. ••• The public relations spat between a liberal think tank and the Marcellus Shale Coalition over jobs attributed to gas drilling was amusing, but masks something more serious. If, as the Keystone Research Center claims, it’s true that drilling has added less than 10,000 jobs in the state, there’s reason for concern that the industry is profiting handsomely while contributing less to the state’s economy than advocates claim. State government has an interest in getting to the truth so that Pennsylvania citizens share adequately in the wealth that is being extracted from beneath their feet.

Hackers finding more and more security holes including Citigroup Inc., Sony Corp. geles company that makes the popular P90X workout videos, said that although his company is beefing up security as it expands overseas, he’s held off on shifting operations into the cloud. “There are a lot of good technology companies doing the cloud well,” he said, but having his company’s data stored remotely, alongside data from many other firms, “is a little scary.” Concerns about the cloud dominated conversation at a recent UCLA conference on cyber security, which drew nearly 400 executives, double last year’s attendance. Eugene Schultz, chief technology officer at Emagined Security, said that hackers are spending substantial time and effort looking for

ways to penetrate the cloud. “There are some real Achilles’ heels in the cloud infrastructure that are making big holes for the bad guys to get into,” he said. Because data from hundreds or thousands of companies can be stored on large cloud servers, he said, hackers can theoretically gain control of huge stores of information through a single attack — a process he called “hyperjacking.” Security professionals said the many attacks recently in the news reflect both an uptick in hacking activity and new pressure on companies to quickly disclose when they’ve been attacked. When hackers broke into Sony’s PlayStation network in April to steal information from about 77

million user accounts, the company came under fire from federal lawmakers for waiting days to inform customers that their personal data had been compromised. Sony’s handling of the breach triggered hearings in Washington and has spurred the Federal Trade Commission to recommend new laws that would compel companies to quickly disclose breaches to users or face penalties. And as the attacks yield increasingly lucrative financial and personal data, the crowd of outlaws is growing too, many from developing nations where unemployment rates are high and programming jobs in short supply. In much the same way that YouTube and cell phones have enabled millions to become filmmakers,

and free blogging software has created legions of diarists, low-cost hacking tools have automated the hacking process for novices. A hacker group called LulzSec has taken credit for recent attacks on the websites of the U.S. Senate, CIA and several video game companies. The group uses Twitter to publicize its exploits and has earned hundreds of thousands of followers. In Internet lingo, the word “lulz” means laughs had at the expense of others — and is the group’s self-proclaimed raison d’etre. “Vigilantes? Nope. Cyber terrorists? Nope,” the group tweeted recently. “We have no political motives — we do it for the lulz.”

LOS ANGELES — As hackers continue their rampage against the world’s largest banks, defense contractors and technology companies, executives and government officials are confronting a sobering truth: The bad guys are winning. The seemingly unending string of high-profile attacks, most recently against Citigroup Inc. and Sony Corp., have shown that nearly every organization is vulnerable to a growing contingent of welltrained and agile attackers who are finding security holes faster than they can be plugged. “It’s gotten very dangerous out there,” said Stan Stahl, a security

consultant and president of the Los Angeles chapter of the Information Systems Security Association. “There’s an epidemic of this stuff going on right now.” The increase in high-profile attacks comes as companies are lookingtomovemoreoftheirbusiness operations online, including to the “cloud,” in which computing tasks are outsourced to firms that maintain huge data centers around the world. Despite the cloud’s potential for cost savings and reducing the hassles of running in-house computer servers, security analysts say it may not yet be as safe as advertised — a warning that many companies are taking seriously.

Amtrak offers a 15 percent discount on an adult rail fare every day for ages 62 and over, with some exclusions. Greyhound bus gives a 5 to 10 percent discount for adults 55 and older. Martz buses offer a 12 percent discount off regular fares, but you must mention the discount and show valid picture ID. Looking for some savings at the lunch counter? All Wendy’s locations give diners requesting the senior discount 10 percent off. And all McDonald’s locations give discounted coffee to seniors. Want to make your meals at

home? Do your grocery shopping on Tuesdays, when some local grocers offer discounts. Shop at Thomas’ Family Markets, where seniors over age 61 get a 5 percent discount on groceries. At Schiel’s Family Markets those age 55 or older get 5 percent, and at Gerrity’s markets, those ages 65 or older get 5 percent off a purchase of $5. A trip to the movie theater keeps getting more and more expensive. But not as much for seniors. R/C Theaters in Wilkes-Barre and Marquee Cinemas at Montage Mountain offers $6 tickets to those ages 60 and older for all non-3D shows, except the first showing of the afternoon. That’s even cheaper at $5.25. At Regal Cinemas in Hazle Township, seniors pay $6.50 for all shows, except 3D movies. If you’re a golfer, some area courses have senior deals. Mountain Laurel Golf Club near White Haven has senior days Monday through Wednesday. For $30, any player who is at least 60 years of age can play a round and ride a cart. Seniors also receive a free hot dog and soda with their round of golf. Edgewood in the Pines near Drums charges seniors 55 and older $18 walking rates for the course on weekdays. While many offers require no club memberships, I recommend signing up for the AARP card. You need to be only 50 or older to get the card, and annual memberships run $16. The discounts are too many to list here, but you can see them by logging on to http:// www.aarp.org/benefits-discounts. Finally, I’d like to share one last word of advice. Our seniors are always giving me sage guidance. So here’s some wisdom I will impart to our seniors: Asking if there’s a senior discount never hurts. Times Leader Staff Writer Andrew M.

Wyoming Valley Motors renovation complete By ANDREW M. SEDER aseder@timesleader.com

LARSKVILLE – A pair of classy auto brands now have classier showrooms in which to sit. Wyoming Valley Motors has completed a $2-million upgrade of its Audi and Porsche dealership on Route11in Larksville and will hold a grand opening from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. Wednesday for customers and the public. For customers who haven’t been to the building for two years, the changes are not only noticeable, they’re impossible to miss, said Steve Ubaldini, vice president and general manager of Wyoming Valley Motors. The upgrades include 1,400square-feet of added showroom space, WiFi access throughout the 29,000 square-foot building, new lighting, new flat screen televisions, new floors and a complete redesign of the service area and showroom. The growth of both brands and requests from the manufacturers led to the upgrades, something Ubaldini said caused headaches over the five years since the project got underway. But the results were worth the inconvenience of the sales team having to work out of a trailer for the bet-

ter part of a year. “It was a nightmare doing it, but I’m extremely happy with the results,” Ubaldini said. Walking around the facility that includes vehicles with starting prices in excess of $100,000, the layout is one Ubaldini said is geared toward customer comfort. He said the $2 million spent, the dealings with manufacturerhired architects and the numer-

ous changes of plans paid off in the end. “The growth of both brands and where they’re going,” Ubaldini said, made “the investment” worthwhile. “Audi is the number one luxury brand in the world but not yet in the United States. But it will be. The only thing stopping us from selling more is getting them.” The dealership sells about 300

Audis a year, six times more than Porsche. The Porsche side of the showroom is a bit darker than the Audi side and prominently displays some glass cases displaying Porsche branded items for sale – a company mandate. “I wasn’t sure how much some of this stuff would sell, but they’re selling,” Ubaldini said. In addition to the standard metal brand logo plates for the front of the cars and key chains, the boutiques have cufflinks and die cast models. The Audi showroom has travel coffee mugs for sale and in the service waiting area Audi has a small corner boutique with racks of clothing, and cases of branded items similar to what’s found in the Porsche showroom. Among the décor on the Porsche side of the 2,900 squarefoot showroom are glass squares with quotations by Dr. Ferry Porsche, the automobile company’s late founder. One, hung near the “Fitting Lounge” where people can design their own vehicle, from color, to interior materials, is appropriate for the new modern showroom. “It’s always been a principle of our company that function and beauty are inseparable.”

World’s millionaires rose last year, Merrill Lynch says By GILES BROOM and ELIZABETH ODY Bloomberg News

NEW YORK — Global millionaires’ ranks rose by 8.3 percent last year as the Asia-Pacific region overtook Europe for the first time, according to a report by Capgemini and Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management. The number of individuals with at least $1 million of investable assets increased to 10.9 million after markets rebounded following the financial crisis, according to the 15th annual World Wealth Report pub-

lished last week. Global wealth held by millionaires rose to $42.7 trillion, exceeding the $40.7 trillion reported for 2007. Millionaires in the Asia-Pacific region jumped 9.7 percent to 3.3 million with the numbers in Hong Kong and Vietnam both climbing by about a third, the report showed. That compares with growth of 6.3 percent to 3.1 million in Europe and 8.6 percent to 3.4 million in North America. “Regionally, Asia-Pacific was the real star of the growth story,” John Thiel, head of U.S.

wealth management for Merrill Lynch Global Wealth Management, said at a press briefing in New York. Stock-market returns and increases in the value of real estate in the region were major contributors, he said. Global equity market capitalization rose 18 percent in 2010, the report said. The MSCI AC World Index, which tracks global stocks in developed and emerging markets, returned 13 percent in 2010 and the MSCI Asia Pacific Index returned 17 percent, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Africa showed the biggest in-

crease in millionaires by region with growth of 11.1 percent, while India entered the top 12 country rankings for the first time, with 153,000. The number of millionaires in China grew by 12 percent to 534,500. China ranked fourth in the number of millionaires trailing the U.S., Japan and Germany. About 53 percent of the world’s millionaires, or individuals with at least $1 million in investable assets excluding primary residences and collectibles, are found in the United States, Japan and Germany, the report showed.

He’d be satisfied getting back to “the normal times,” with the home building numbers that were seen in the late 1990s and the first half of the last decade. For that to happen, Peterson said consumer confidence needs to rise. That’s something Arnold said could take years, not months. And that means business for homebuilders might never return to levels they once were accustomed to. That level where they turned down projects that weren’t profitable enough, or had so many phone calls it took you a week to return them, or when a builder said ‘no thank you’ to a smaller project or one that was an hour’s drive away. “I don’t know if it will ever come back to that point where I have so many (projects) that I can pick and choose,” Arnold said. Builders cited two chief reasons for the diminishing confidence in their business: Rising costs of building materials, such

On July 12 at 7:30 a.m. at the Building Industry Association of Northeastern PA building at 411 Main St. in Kingston, the BIA of NEPA will be hosting a presentation by the Pennsylvania Builders Association to address changes made to the state’s building code. The presentation will focus on such topics as fire sprinklers, the new requirement for fire floor protection, new log home energy requirements, the 2009 wall bracing requirements, as well as when the 2012 codes will be adopted. “This presentation is designed to provide participants with the essential information on the code changes in a short period of time as the presentation is tailored to less than one hour with a Q&A period at the end,” said Danielle Policare, executive officer of the BIA.

Until the housing market and economy rebound, which he said doesn’t seem likely this year. Bob Hutchins, owner of Centennial Homes in Long Pond, said his business is for sale because of the poor building environment. The 23-year-old business is struggling like its competitors. “Things are slow,” Hutchins said when asked to give precise numbers of homes built last year relative to 2006. “Let’s just leave it at that.”

Arnold said “materials haven’t gone backwards in price.” He noted fuel costs, insurance and electricity also have risen. “It’s become a product that’s become almost unaffordable,” Arnold said. Tim Donahue, a housing consultant in Fine Line Homes’ Hazleton office, declined to release specific housing construction numbers for his company but said the number of homes built in 2010 was 60 percent below the number the company built in 2006.

testifying to Congress this month urging the country to spur its own production. At stake isn’t just the ability to make a better cellphone (tiny magnets make for tiny speakers) or a sharper television picture (the phosphor red in screens comes from europium). The elements are critical to oil refineries and cutting-edge medical care. And rare earths play a growing role in making our modern military more modern. Without rare earths, satelliteguided bombs would weigh three times as much. A hybrid motor contemplated for a new class of naval destroyer would

be in jeopardy. Night-vision goggles would go dark. Some in Congress have suggested the country’s national security is threatened if supplies run too short. Still, rare earths are often found mixed with other ores, and it’s rare to find concentrations that make mining profitable. The story of the deposits in southeast Nebraska dates back perhaps 500 million years, when underground volcanic activity spilled lava into subterranean pathways. That magma cooled quickly and left an unusual deposit of carbonatites laced with rare earths. Some 50 years ago, state geologists surveying southeast Nebraska found two oddities around Elk Creek. The rocks were more magnetic than most,

and were denser. Those findings drew the attention of mining company Molycorp Minerals in the late 1970s and early 1980s. It drilled holes across the landscape and pulled out 90,000 feet of core samples. A few decades later, a hightech boom vaulted prices for rare earths upward. Canadian company Quantum Rare Earth Developments came looking at the core samples and reams of data left behind by Molycorp. Joeckel, the Nebraska geologist, had stockpiled it all for safekeeping. The new method is a greener process that uses far fewer chemicals and less water while shaving the cost of extracting the minerals from mined rock. The company expects to crank up operations in 2012 and produce up to 40,000 tons a year.

resources specialist with Insperity, a Houston-based HR provider, recommends listing what isn’t acceptable. For example, tank tops, shirts without collars, see-through fabrics, ripped or dirty jeans. You should use specifics. If you ban skirts that are too short, what constitutes too short? You need to provide the number of inches above the knee where a skirt’s hem must fall. Be sure you list clothes typically worn by men, and those that are worn by women. Not doing that can put you at risk of a discrimination suit. It’s a good idea to have either a human resources expert or a labor lawyer look over your dress code. Gibbs says employers should speak privately to staffers who are dressing inappropriately and remind them about the dress code and the reasons for it. He says the policy should also indicate that staffers who violate it will be asked to change what they wear. If they resist, you probably want to start treating this as a performance and disciplinary issue.

WE SALUTE YOU.

It’s an uncomfortable summertime moment that many small business owners face: A female staffer shows up for work in the shortest of shorts. Or a male staffer arrives wearing a tank top. And they work in full view of customers or clients. Dress code clashes aren’t confined to the summer months. But they do tend to be more frequent than in colder months when everyone is covering up. Employers who don’t like a lot of skin showing need to create a dress code, and do it now. Chances are, most of your staffers do have a sense of how they should dress for work. But having a dress code will help you avoid problems or to resolve them easily. Your staffer in a skimpy outfit may protest when you say that’s inappropriate dress for work. But you have the law on your side. Employers are allowed to require employees to wear certain kinds of clothes, and to ban other types from the workplace.

Consider that uniforms are required in some jobs. And that some clothes can be forbidden because of safety issues. But the boss is also allowed to determine what kind of atmosphere the company is trying to project, and to require employees to conform with it. The law does require you to create a dress code that is, to use a legalism, gender-neutral. That means that you’re telling both sexes to dress appropriately. And the law does require that you don’t discriminate against someone’s religious beliefs -- for example, by banning turbans or dreadlocks that are worn for religious reasons. The biggest concern that most business owners have when it comes to how staffers dress is the impression that customers have of the company. So many won’t want a receptionist to have exposed bra straps and a very short skirt. Or a sales associate in a T-shirt. It’s a good idea to explain at the start of the dress code why you’re creating one. You should also state any safety concerns you have. Rick Gibbs, a senior human

MarketPulse SWINGING WILDLY The S&P 500 dropped 1.4 percent on June 10. If it had happened in 1964, it would have been the worst one-day loss of the year. But because it happened in 2011, it wasn’t even the biggest of the month. Such 1 percent daily swings, both up and down, are occurring more often. Since the start of 2010, they’ve happened at a rate of 66 times a year. In the 1960s, it happened just 23 times a year. Too bad the volatility doesn’t offer much in terms of useful cues. S&P Equity Research found that a spike in frequency of 1 percent days doesn’t necessarily predict an upcoming correction or a rally.

VOLATILITY IN THAILAND Investors again are selling Thai stocks, worried about political unrest. The country has seen 18 military coups in the last century, most recently in 2006. This time, the market is nervous about upcoming July 3 elections. The iShares MSCI Thailand ETF (THD) dropped 13 percent between April 29 and Wednesday, more than double the S&P 500’s fall. But financial analysts are saying it again shouldn’t matter to investors. Citi analyst Suchart Techaposa calls the drop a buying opportunity and points to past rebounds after political clashes. Most recently, in the spring of 2010, more than 90 people died during anti-government protests. The THD fell 14 percent between April 7, when the country dePeople's Alliance for Democracy protesters shout during a rally at the clared a state of emergency, and May 20.

STAGGERING HOME Some companies have staggered boards, where only a portion of directors stand for election each year. These companies tend to have lower market values than those without staggered boards. The question for economists is whether staggered boards drag down a company’s value, or whether low-value companies tend to like the setup. Researchers from Harvard, Stanford and Tel Aviv universities looked at changes following court decisions that allowed staggered boards, and those that barred them. The verdict: Staggered boards pull down value. They deter rivals from making takeover attempts. Stan Choe, Kristen Girard • AP

Don’t buy commodities Brian Jacobsen, chief portfolio strategist at Wells Fargo Funds Management, says investing in commodities can be a “fool’s game” for individual investors. He explains why most people should stay away from raw materials, and shares his outlook for the stock market.

InsiderQ&A

How should investors handle commodities? Over a person’s lifetime, his or her exposure to commodities should be zero. That doesn’t mean that, at certain periods of time, you Jacobsen shouldn’t be long them (buying them) or short them (betting against them). But that can be a fool’s game trying to time that. That’s why if you are trying to get exposure to commodities, I really don’t think it pays to buy a commodity and just hold it in perpetuity. Why is that? There’s a huge carrying cost. You’d probably be further off getting exposure to a company that is involved in the extraction or production of that particular commodity as opposed to the commodity itself. I know that commodities are very popular with investors, but sometimes I think you can find much better opportunities. Let’s say if you want to own gold, why not own a gold miner than might pay a dividend? Gold doesn’t pay a dividend. That’s surprising, though, to say people should have no commodity holdings over the long term. It’s almost like it’s become the conventional wisdom that commodities should make up 5 to 10 percent of your portfolio. And I disagree with that. Maybe at certain periods they should. But if you look at all commodity prices from say the 1800s to the present, the average annual return was -1.5 percent. Now there have been periods of time, like 10 years, when they’ve gone up dramatically. So there are these very long cycles that they tend to follow. But, as far as just a buy-and-hold strategy in commodities, I don’t think it’s going to pay off. So most individual investors would be wise to stay away? Either stay away, or go through some sort of actively managed approach. Hire a professional to do it, because just holding, let’s say, an (exchanged-traded fund) with exposure to gold or exposure to agricultural materials or something like that, it’s probably a pretty expensive way to try to get exposure to that. Looking at the stock market, do you expect the recent volatility to continue? It is something that I expect, at least through the balance of the summer. We are going to continue to have some of these major up and down days, which is going to be somewhat unnerving for especially your retail investors. Because they look at their balance of their portfolio, and they’re like “oh jeez,” it suddenly dropped by 2 percent or whatever. The thing that I think individual investors need to keep in mind is keep that long term perspective. This is daily volatility. What really matters is their ability to reach their investment goals. Some of the short-term volatility could actually provide them with some opportunities to reallocate their portfolios to get in line with those long-term goals. So what should individuals be doing when the markets are having these big swings? When markets are choppy, but they seem kind of directionless — like they’re not going up, they’re not going down, but it’s just up and down a lot — it can actually be useful to aggressively rebalance your portfolio. Most individual investors, they take a look at their portfolio maybe once a year, they revisit their 401(k) options maybe once every five years. Maybe when they first get a job they look at it, then they think about at it as they get closer to retirement. But, in this environment, they could look at maybe going quarterly or even monthly of just making sure their asset allocation is correct for them.

Treasury yields plunge

An uneasy earnings season The weeks when companies report their earnings can be a tense time for investors. The upcoming earnings season will be particularly anxiety-provoking. The economy has slowed during the second quarter. Manufacturing growth, the job market and home prices have been disappointing. That has made stocks volatile since they hit a 2011 high at the end of April. The S&P 500 is down 6 percent. But financial analysts are predicting that earnings for S&P 500 companies rose 14 percent during the quarter. That would be the sixth

straight quarter in which they grew more than 10 percent. One reason that companies are doing well: They’re not hiring many workers. That keeps their costs down. Analysts are focused on how much business companies are bringing in. “What we really want to see over the next few quarters is revenue growth,” says Eric Thorne, senior vice president with Bryn Mawr Trust Wealth Management. This quarter, he may get it. Analysts expect that revenue for companies in the S&P 500 rose 10 percent, the most since the first quarter of 2010. Overseas

demand has helped, especially for raw materials producers and equipment makers. Early signals on earnings from companies have been mixed. Fertilizer producer Agrium gave a sneak preview of its second-quarter results last week. It said record crop prices have sent sales higher. The company said it’s on track to report profit growth of as much as 38 percent. But oil and gas driller Nabors warned the same day that its second-quarter results would be lower than it expected. Its offshore U.S. business and its other units haven’t met forecasts.

Cheap rides

Transportation stocks are chugging away. The Dow Jones Transportation index has climbed back up 3 percent after falling more than 8 percent from its May 11 high of 5,527.50. Airline, railroad and trucking stocks are likely to keep rising. And they’re cheaper now than they were in the spring. Railroad company earnings are up: Norfolk Southern’s first-quarter profit rose 26 percent from a year earlier. Norfolk said it was hauling more of everything from coal to retail goods. Airline analysts expect this summer to be a good one for carriers, who are charging passengers more to offset higher fuel costs. And FedEx said last week that rising demand and prices pushed its fourth-quarter net income up by 33 percent. So how does an investor decide what transportation stock to buy? One way is to look for value. Some of the cheapest and best-known SOURCE: FactSet

U.S. BOND INDEXES

If earnings reports go as analysts predict, look for the best growth to come from energy companies and materials producers. These companies do a lot of business overseas. Dow Chemical, for example, got 64 percent of its revenue last quarter from outside North America. INDUSTRY

Government bond prices rose to their highest level of the year this past week as investors sought out safer places to put their money. That sent Treasury yields plunging. The yield on the 10-year Treasury note, which moves opposite its price, dipped to 2.86 percent from 2.95 percent a week earlier. Mortgage rates remain at their lowest levels in nearly a year. The rate on a 30-year loan is 4.50 percent.

OPINION

“WE ARE GOING to take the old map and expand it.” Jim Messina Obama campaign manager

KEVIN BLAUM

CARL LEUBSDORF

Huntsman starts shaping his GOP image

Reapportionment rumors shouldn’t become reality “REPRESENTATIVES shall be apportioned among the several states according to their respective numbers ….” – the Constitution of the United States of America While that may sound somewhat academic, reapportioning 435 congressional districts across 50 states often becomes a battle royale in state legislatures where the configuration of congressional seats is decided. Regions within states try to maintain their representation and bolster their congressional clout by redrawing congressional boundaries to protect and shift sitting and would be members of Congress nearer their own turf. Competing areas strive to do the same. Ten years ago during the reapportionment process of 2001, Northeastern Pennsylvania had to confront just such an assault on our congressional standing. At that time the Commonwealth had to reduce its number of congressional seats from 21 to 19 and many from larger metropolitan areas thought our 11th district (anchored in the Wyoming Valley) ought to be pulled southward, weighting its votes toward Berks and Dauphin Counties, the suburbs of Reading and the City of Harrisburg. Had we capitulated, our congressional representative would never again have hailed from this area. Thanks to a determined bipartisan response in the state Legislature, and strong support from local media, that plan was defeated and we maintained the integrity and location of Pennsylvania’s 10th and 11th congressional districts. Today there are whispers of a similar plot being hatched against Northeastern Pennsylvania in the reapportionment process of 2011. While blueprints are sketchy and a final map will not be revealed until later this year, one scenario is generating a lot of buzz. Get out your map. The purported scheme calls for the 10th district (Tom Marino) to lean westward relinquishing all of its municipalities in Lackawanna, Luzerne, Montour, Pike, Susquehanna, Wayne and Wyoming counties. Shifting west and south, the 10th would acquire all of Tioga, Mifflin, Juniata and Perry counties including parts of Dauphin and Cumberland counties. This subterfuge also has the 11th district (Lou Barletta) shedding all of Carbon and Lackawanna counties, including the City of Scranton, and some municipalities in Monroe County to pick up the counties of Montour, Pike, Susquehanna, Wayne and Wyoming. If this contrivance were ever adopted, the 10th district (McDade-Sherwood-Carney-Marino), which now includes part of Lackawanna County and touches on New Jersey, would be moved toward central Pennsylvania, and on its southern border be one county removed from the state of Maryland. The 11th district (Flood-MustoNelligan-Harrison-Kanjorski-Barletta) would become primarily a rural district having less in common with the more populated county of Luzerne. Worse, the 17th district, which stretches from Schuylkill County south through the suburbs of Reading to Dauphin County and the City of Harrisburg, would give up sections of Perry, Dauphin and Lebanon Counties, to annex Carbon County and parts of Monroe, to reach the City of Scranton and grab all of Lackawanna County. Such a plan would be devastating to Northeastern Pennsylvania. Should this intrigue receive even the slightest consideration our state legislators must join in a strong bipartisan response to kill it, quickly. Furthermore, Congressmen Marino and Barletta should denounce any plan that would so slice and dice our two congressional districts and the important role each plays in the economic future of our region. I hope this is just an apparition and that I’ve ruined your breakfast, needlessly. After all, who among us would concoct a scheme that slides the 10th district away from Northeastern Pennsylvania to a new center of gravity in Williamsport and Lycoming County; that increases by 50 thousand Republican votes the GOP registration in a chopped-up 11th district; and that maliciously abandons Lackawanna County in its entirety?

STRATEGY Obama wants big 2012 campaign map, GOP wants small

By CHARLES BABINGTON Associated Press

CHICAGO — Republicans hope voters’ fears about jobs and the economy will help them reclaim a handful of Mountain West and Southern states that were crucial to Barack Obama’s 2008 presidential win. Obama’s campaign appears just as determined to hold those states next year and force Republicans to spend precious resources defending places they’d like to consider safe. Every four years, political operatives fixate on the dozen or so states that always decide close presidential elections. This time, Obama hopes to play on as big an Electoral College map as possible, and his team insists it will compete for the first time in traditionally solid Republican states like Georgia and Arizona. Republicans, conversely, want a compact map, hoping for wins in big, alwayscontested states such as Florida and Ohio, which were key to George W. Bush’s victories in 2000 and 2004. It takes 270 electoral votes to win the White House. Obama won it in 2008 partly by prevailing in states such as Virginia and Indiana that had not voted for a Democratic presidential nominee

in decades. But with unemployment now at 9.1 percent, and the economic recovery slowed, many Republicans argue that Obama’s chances are notably worse in those states, as well as others in the vote-rich, economically struggling Midwest. They say they can win some, if not all, of three crucial battleground states — Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania — along with some smaller states that Obama carried, including New Mexico, Nevada and Iowa. Republicans thrived in all those states in the 2010 midterm elections, and GOP strategists hope the momentum will carry into next year, thwarting Obama. “The map is very difficult for him,” said Rick Wiley, political di-

rector of the Republican National Committee. Obama’s campaign sees it differently. “We are going to take the old map and expand it,” Obama campaign manager Jim Messina said in an interview at his office in Chicago. He argues that demographic trends are moving in Democrats’ direction in several states, which could help them hold Virginia and North Carolina and possibly win Georgia and Arizona. “Changes in the composition of the electorate” make the states attractive, said David Axelrod, Obama’s top political adviser.

White House solar panels are no-shows

Editor’s note: An occasional look at promises by public officials and how well they are kept. By MARK S. SMITH Associated Press

WASHINGTON— Last October, the Obama administration announced plans to install solar panels on the roof of the White House by the spring of this year, returning the power of the sun to the pinnacle of prominence a quarter-century after Jimmy Carter’s pioneering system was taken down. Spring has come and gone, and the promised panels have yet to see the light of day. Administration officials blame the complexities of the contracting process, and say the solar project is still an active one. But they can’t say when

it’ll be complete. Environmental groups say the symbolism is telling — and disappointing. “On we’ll go,” sighed Bill McKibben, founder of the climate activist group 350.org. “One more summer of beautiful, strong sunlight going to waste, just bouncing off the White House roof.” McKibben and other environmentalists say the failure to meet its own deadline reflects an administration that’s been long on green rhetoric but sometimes disappointingly short on practical accomplishments. In last fall’s announcement, at a conference of government officials and environmental groups, Energy Secretary Steven Chu was specific. “I’m pleased to announce that, by the

end of this spring, there will be solar panels and a solar hot water heater on the roof of the White House,” he wrote that day on his departmental website. Nancy Sutley, chairwoman of the Council on Environmental Quality, added that by installing the system on the most famous roof in America, President Barack Obama was “underscoring (his) commitment to lead and the promise and importance of renewable energy in the United States.” McKibben, who along with other environmentalists had met with White House officials to urge such an installation, was surprised and gratified by the announcement a mere two See SOLAR, Page 6E

PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATES use their formal announcements to introduce themselves to American voters. Many do so in their hometowns: Bill Clinton in Little Rock, Bob Dole in Russell, Kan., and, in a few weeks, Rep. Michele Bachmann in Waterloo, Iowa. Others, though, seek to create an image they want to place before the voters. Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney recently declared his candidacy on a New Hampshire farm with a sharp attack on President Barack Obama’s stewardship of the American economy. On Tuesday, former Utah Gov. Jon Huntsman sought to present himself as a political heir of the GOP’s greatest modern hero, Ronald Reagan. Huntsman, whose first political job was in the Reagan White House, announced his candidacy at Liberty State Park, N.J., across from the Statue of Liberty. Reagan launched his 1980 general election campaign there, and Huntsman underscored the point Tuesday: “I stand in his shadow as well as the shadow of this magnificent monument to our liberties.” Beyond the setting, however, the most significant part of Huntsman’s announcement may have been its noticeably less harshly partisan tone. He vowed a “high-road” campaign and neither mentioned Obama by name nor blamed him for the country’s problems. “I respect my fellow Republican candidates, and I respect the president of the United States,” he said. “He and I have a difference of opinion on how to help the country we both love.” It’s questionable how that will play in a GOP filled with sharp antagonism toward Obama and his policies. And many Republicans may be unhappy with the two years the little-known Huntsman spent as Obama’s ambassador to China. Indeed, some top Obama aides say, Huntsman indicated he supported some of the president’s most controversial policies. Last week, David Axelrod asserted on CNN’s “State of the Union” that, in a 2009 conversation, Huntsman was “effusive” about “what the president was doing” on health care and “on the whole range of issues.” The Huntsman camp called that “absurd.” But in an earlier letter published by The Daily Caller, a conservative website, Huntsman called Obama “a remarkable leader.” As for that moderate image, it stems mostly from his manner and his support for same-sex civil unions. In other areas, Huntsman mirrors his GOP rivals’ conservative stances. He said he would have voted for the controversial House GOP budget phasing out Medicare. Like former Minnesota Gov. Tim Pawlenty, Huntsman has backed away from past support for “capping greenhouse gas pollution.” One possible plus is his foreign policy experience. Besides serving in China, he was ambassador to Singapore for the first President Bush and deputy trade representative under the second. Huntsman drew a subtle difference Tuesday with calls by Romney and Bachmann to withdraw as soon as possible from Afghanistan, saying “we must manage the end of these conflicts without repeating past mistakes.” As for campaign strategy, Huntsman already made it clear he will target early primaries in New Hampshire, South Carolina and Florida. His headquarters is in his wife’s home state of Florida. His crucial test will be New Hampshire, where polls show Romney well ahead. Huntsman’s strategists have made one risky decision by deciding to pass up the Iowa caucuses. Though dominated by social conservatives, enough mainstream conservatives may participate to boost a more moderate candidate for New Hampshire. By opting out, Huntsman risks the chance that beneficiary will be Romney, who is bypassing the GOP’s August Iowa straw poll but apparently will make some effort in the Hawkeye State. Carl P.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “Some of the districts are not going to survive.” Anthony Perrone The Greater Nanticoke Area superintendent warned that school districts must make severe cuts in response to the loss of state and federal funding. The GNA School Board adopted a budget Thursday night that includes cuts to arts, music and elementary physical education; the furlough of 11 teachers; and the elimination of 11 positions in family programs.

OTHER OPINION: AFGHANISTAN

A very welcome troop withdrawal

RESIDENT Obama’s highly anticipated announcement Wednesday night that U.S. troop strength in Afghanistan will return to pre-surge levels within a year was welcome. In a televised speech, Obama said 10,000 troops will come home by December and 23,000 more will return by next summer. A late 2009 surge of 30,000 soldiers raised the troop level to about 100,000. “The light of a secure peace can be seen in the distance,” he said. Although Obama’s military commanders wanted a slower pace of withdrawal, it’s doubtful that most Americans would have reacted negatively had Obama announced an even larger return of U.S. troops for next month. After more than 10 years of soldiers coming home maimed or in body bags, and billions being spent to improve the lives of Afghans and Iraqis while this country falls deeper into debt, Americans are war weary. That fact has been quantified in most recent polls. An ABC News/Washington Post poll this month showed 54 percent of Americans no longer think the war in Af-

ghanistan is worth fighting, and 73 percent believe a “substantial number” of troops should be brought home this summer. Such numbers have helped fertilize bipartisanship that other issues before Congress can only dream of achieving. The country’s antiwar mood is further fueled by a larger conversation about the proper U.S. role in other military operations, including Libya. Rep. Joe Heck (R., Nev.) has introduced a bill to stop funding the Libya mission in 30 days. Noting the slaying of Osama bin Laden and the growth of health and educational opportunities for Afghans, Sen. Bob Casey (D., Pa.) said it’s time to change strategies and spend less on the war. “At a time of economic austerity in the U.S., the $120 billion-per-year price tag is unsustainable,” he said. That’s how most Americans feel, which is why Obama could have been bolder. The case that smaller troop withdrawals will make a significant difference even though all U.S. troops are scheduled to come home in 2014 is a very difficult one to make, given the evidence so far.

their benefits. But it needs to be spelled out emphatically, so that political demagogues will not be able to scare retired seniors that they are going to have the rug pulled out from under them. Retired seniors have the least to fear from a reform of Social Security, since neither political party is about to take away what these retirees already have and are relying on. Despite irresponsible political ads showing an old lady in a wheel chair being dumped over a cliff, the people who are really in danger of being dumped over a cliff are the younger generation, who are paying into Social Security but are unlikely to get back anything like what they are paying in. The money that young workers are paying into Social Security today is not being put aside to pay for their retirement. It is being spent today, paying the pensions of the retired generation -- and it can’t even cover that in the years ahead. What needs to be done is to allow younger workers a choice of staying out of a system that is simply running out of money. Since the law does not allow private pension plans to be set up in the financially irresponsible way Social Security is, that is where young people’s money should be put, if they ever want to see that money again when they reach retirement age.

Despite budget cuts, we can’t give up on the cosmos IN A COUNTRY where some corporations do not pay taxes, millionaires get farm subsidies and a presidential candidate can run up a half-million-dollar tab at Tiffany’s, we’re deferring an attempt to answer one of our most enduring questions: Are we alone in the universe? Certainly we don’t cotton to the idea of being alone. We yearn for the big signal from the stars, the cosmic hail. We thrill to “Contact” and “District 9” and play video games featuring tentacled aliens. We tune in when Carl Sagan and Timothy Ferris explain outer space on TV. Yet we’re surprisingly unwilling to put our money where our imaginations want to roam. News that the Allen Telescope Array is “hibernating” – a curiously biological term for shutting down 42 radio telescopes designed to listen for signs of life from other worlds – raises questions about our commitment to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. For now, the phone is off the hook – as it was in 1994 when Sen. Richard Bryan, D-Nev., derided NASA’s “Martian chase” and successfully shut down its SETI – “Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence” – program. It would cost each U.S. taxpayer just 3 cents a year to fund the Allen array,

Law needed to resolve war powers problem IS THE Libya war legal? Under the 1973 War Powers Resolution, it is not. President Obama has exceeded the 90-day period to receive retroactive authorization from Congress. But things are not so simple. No president should accept – and no president from Nixon on has accepted – the constitutionality of the WPR, passed unilaterally by Congress over a presidential veto. On the other hand, every president should have the constitutional decency to get some congressional approval when he takes the country to war. The model for such constitutional restraint is – yes, Senator Obama – George W. Bush. Not once but twice (Afghanistan and then Iraq) did Bush seek and receive congressional authorization, as his father did for the Gulf War. On Libya, Obama did nothing of the sort. He claimed exemption from the WPR on the grounds that America in Libya is not really engaged in “hostilities.” To deploy an excuse so transparently ridiculous isn’t just a show of contempt for Congress and for the intelligence of the American people. It manages to undermine the presidency’s own war-making prerogatives by implicitly conceding that if the Libya war really did involve hostilities, the president would indeed be subject to the WPR. The worst of all possible worlds: Insult Congress, weaken the presidency. A neat trick. But the question of warmaking power is larger than one president’s blundering. We have a core constitutional problem. In balancing warmaking power between Congress and the presidency, the Constitution grants Congress the exclusive right to declare war. Problem is: No one declares war anymore. Since World War II, we’ve been involved in five major wars, and many minor engagements, without ever declaring war. But it’s not just us. No one does. Declarations of war are a relic of a more aristocratic era, a time when, for example, an American secretary of state closed his department’s codecracking office because “gentlemen do not read each other’s mail.” The power to declare war has become, through no fault of anyone, archaic and obsolete. We need, therefore, some new way to fulfill the original constitutional intent. The WPR was a good try, but it failed because it was the work

COMMENTARY CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER of Congress alone, which tried to shove it down the throat of the Executive, which, in turn, for over three decades has resisted it as an encroachment on the inherent powers of the commander in chief. Moreover, the judiciary, which under our system is the ultimate arbiter of constitutionality, has consistently refused to adjudicate this “political question” (to quote one appellate court judge) and thus resolve with finality the separation-of-powers dispute between the other two co-equal branches. We therefore need a new constitutional understanding, mutually agreed to by both political branches, that translates the war-declaration power into a more modern equivalent: First, formalize the recent tradition of resolutions (Gulf, Afghanistan, Iraq) authorizing the initiation of war and recognize them as the functional equivalent of a declaration of war. Second, establish special procedures for operations requiring immediacy and surprise, for example, notification of the House speaker, Senate majority leader and their opposition counterparts, in secret if necessary. Third, in such cases, require retroactive authorization by the full Congress within an agreed period – but without any further congressional involvement. The Constitution’s original grant of power to Congress was for a one-time authorization, with no further congressional constraint on executive war-making except, of course, through the power of the purse. The Libya adventure is too much of a mess to expect mutual agreement on this kind of constitutional compromise now. Nor is Obama, having bollixed the war powers issue in every possible way, the man to negotiate this deal. Resolution of this issue will require time, dispassion and therefore inevitably a commission. Then submit the commission’s proposed new law for approval by Congress and the president. We need a set of rules governing the legality of any future war. This will allow us to concentrate on the most important question: its wisdom. Charles Krauthammer’s email address is letters@charleskrauthammer.com.

Music pierces the veil between where we are and what we feel.

GOP begins to question value of Afghan war IN THE waning minutes of last week’s Republican presidential debate, Mitt Romney was opining about Afghanistan when he uttered something that, in past years, would have been condemned by virtually all Republicans as dovish blasphemy. He said: “I also think we’ve learned that our troops shouldn’t go off and try and fight a war of independence for another nation.” It’s rare to hear a Republican front-runner talking like a Vietnam peacenik circa 1969. In fact, if you take what he said at face value, he would have staunchly opposed the war that George W. Bush ginned up in Iraq. So what the heck was going on here? How could a mainstream Republican say such a thing? Romney stressed Tuesday that he opposed a precipitous U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, but he did not disown his provocative remark. That’s because he is a finger-in-the-wind kind of guy, and he’s well-aware that the prevailing winds have shifted within the party. There was a time when virtually all Republicans embraced the hawkish credo of muscular interventionism. But not anymore. In a stunning Gallup poll last month, 47 percent of Republicans who responded favored bringing the troops home from Afghanistan. Romney was essen-

calling his comments “a disaster.” And hawkish Sen. Lindsey Graham even suggested that Romney was a potential wimp in the mold of Jimmy Carter. As Republican insults go, that’s probably worse than being compared to Anthony Weiner. Here’s the Graham quote: “From the party’s point of view, the biggest disaster would be to let Barack Obama become Ronald Reagan and our people become Jimmy Carter.” Indeed, that, too, would be an enduring irony: a Democratic president’s prosecuting a difficult war, chasing down terrorists worldwide, sustaining a hawkish posture despite pervasive war weariness back home – while the Republicans, of all people, openly question whether it’s strategically and fiscally prudent to keep playing world cop.

Academy Day does a service

wanted to take this opportunity to say “thank you” to Congressman Tom Marino for sponsoring the Armed Forces Academy Day at Wyoming Valley West High School in Plymouth on May 7. My wife and I and our son enjoyed the opportunity to meet with you and your staff to discuss the nomination process as well as meeting with all of the representatives from the different armed forces academies. It was very clear to us that the time and energy you and your staff put into organizing the event certainly demonstrated your dedication to our country and to all of the military branches and the academies that were represented. All of the representatives of the service branches were very helpful and enthusiastic about our decision to assist our son in talking about his future and the possibilities of entering the Air Force Academy. I believe there are many young

RiverFest has great sojourn

would like to thank The Times Leader for its weeklong, extensive and positive coverage of the 2011 Wyoming Valley RiverFest. I could not think of a better way to celebrate National Rivers Month than to continue our work of reconnecting the Valley to the

Susquehanna River. The 12th Annual RiverFest was a huge success, with more than 400 paddlers exploring the river during our three sojourns, 168 dragon boat racers from eight teams of our sponsors and more than 5,000 people at the festival in Nesbitt Park or the free concerts on the River Common during this three-day celebration of the Susquehanna. The Wyoming Valley RiverFest continues to be planned, developed and run by an outstanding group of volunteers and partnering organizations that have once again given their time to give back to the community. Thanks to those hardworking volunteers, we were able to pull off this threeday event without a glitch. I am truly amazed at the efforts of the volunteers and partnering organizations that met and planned for more than six months and gave up many hours to make RiverFest the

success it has become. I want to especially thank all the corporations, businesses and community organizations that once again supported RiverFest with financial contributions; Mayor Tom Leighton (who became immersed in the river when his dragon boat capsized during the Sunday races); the City of Wilkes-Barre; and Luzerne County Commissioners Maryanne Petrilla, Stephen Urban and Thomas Cooney for their continued support of RiverFest. RiverFest could not happen without their generosity. I am extremely grateful to have such excellent and professional river outfitters that make putting 400 people on the water over three days seem easy, fun and safe. I also want to thank the river rescue teams and the Fish and Boat Commission that helped out with dragon boat racing, family fishing and loan of the floating docks. Our exhibitors and educators help make RiverFest a fun, interactive, educational event for all ages. We had everything from live skunks

and possums to solar-powered electricity and free children’s bike helmets under the large tent. Educating our youths and the public about the Susquehanna River and the watershed is and always will be a major component of RiverFest. Each year we help create new stewards of our environment and watershed. After talking about it and planning for two years, we finally were able to bring dragon boat racing to the Wyoming Valley and prove it could be done here. WilkesBarre will now join Philadelphia and Pittsburgh as dragon boat racing sites and we will begin to plan a larger Dragon Boat Racing Festival for September 2012 at the River Common. Just think, a small group of committed volunteers, with the help of community-minded sponsors has been able grow RiverFest into a large community event in such a short period of time. Please become a good steward of our river and watershed, and we hope you will join us on the river or at one of the many events planned for the River

Common this summer. Vincent Cotrone President, Wilkes-Barre Riverfront Parks Committee

6 quick steps to balance budget

hort and sweet. You want to balance the budget? You only have to do six things: 1) Bring the troops home, 2) Put the money we were using for the wars back into the economy, immediately, 3) Get rid of all the pork in all the bills at the local, state and federal levels, 4) Outlaw any form of lobbying, 5) Elect someone who knows how to balance a checkbook, and 6) Last but not least, elect someone who knows enough to stop spending when there is no more money.

People can curb Hazletonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trash

allelujah! Finally -- a story about the litter and trash situation in Hazleton! I live in the Heights, which used to be a nice working class neighborhood. Now it is a fight to keep it from looking like the neighborhoods I must drive through in order to get home. One suggestion for the rest of you who own a broom and actually use it: take advantage of the fact that Hazleton has a Health Department and Code Enforcement office. You must put your complaint in writing and sign it. But that does not mean that city officials will visit your neighbor and say you did the complaining. For example, every year I have neighbors with fenced-in yards who eventually get around to cutting their grass. However, they completely ignore the fact that they also have grass outside the fence. The ordinance in Hazleton is that grass (or weeds, as the case may be) cannot exceed 10

inches. With all the rain weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had, this has not been difficult. Turn them in to Mark Thompson, our health officer, who does a bang-up job when he receives complaints. Two other new neighbors each got a dog but have no yard. So they decided to use the alley as their dogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; bathroom. But apparently their mama never taught them that when your dog poops, you scoop. By the end of winter, we had a biohazard situation going on in this neighborhood, until Mr. Thompson explained to them that this is illegal. Another one of my pet peeves: tires left in yards, propped against garages â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a breeding ground for mosquitoes â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and also illegal. Lest you think I am targeting the Hispanic community, let me assure you that I am not. But I was thrilled to see the group, Latinos for a Clean Hazleton. I have â&#x20AC;&#x153;white trashâ&#x20AC;? living next door to me. They had to be told on several occasions to pick up after their dogs because the aroma was killing the rest of us, particularly during hot weather. They havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t picked up a paint brush since they moved here years ago, and when one of their kids broke a window on their house, they put cardboard in to replace it. The door to their garage no longer closes due to lack of maintenance. And even though they park in front of my house, they would not bend down to pick up a piece of litter if their lives depended on it. Even at city playgrounds, there are plenty of trash cans

available (see Beech Street, in particular.) Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m happy to see kids playing tennis and basketball, and small children on the rides. But what is the problem with walking a few feet to put your garbage in the can? In a suburb of Cleveland (not a gated community), they do a yearly inspection of homes and properties. In this area of tree-lined streets are older homes. Yet they care enough about the appearance of their town to do this on a regular basis and then give homeowners a certain period of time to comply. Whether you own the place in which you live is irrelevant. Where is the pride in oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surroundings? Unfortunately, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be willing to bet that the people who need to read this article and this letter donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t bother reading the newspaper at all. So I urge you to report them to the authorities until they get the message. We are tired of the pig sty our community has become. Debra E. Mainiero Hazleton

Wagner correct, voter declares

am not a Democrat, but I believe in giving credit where credit is due. Pennsylvania Auditor General Jack Wagner deserves credit for speaking against the plans of both his fellow Democrats and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Big Laborâ&#x20AC;? to spend the supposed revenue surplus the state is experiencing. Clearly, Wagner recognizes that Ed

Rendell left the taxpayers with a multi-billion dollar deficit, and you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t spend any extra money you might come into when you owe billions in debt. Wagner will certainly take his lumps for his courageous stand against his partyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s desire to continue a plan of reckless spending, particularly from the labor unions that almost exclusively support Democrats for public office and that also support spending the surplus. I thought it important for him to know that I believe he did right by me and the taxpayers of Pennsylvania, by denouncing the Democratsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; plan to spend this money. I appreciate his support of the taxpayers, even if just for this part of the Republican plan to return our state to financial solvency. Stephen T. Naspinski New Albany, Pa.

Drillers must be more accountable I am writing in opposition to the Pennsylvania Department of Environmental Protection Bureau of Oil and Gas Management Director Scott Perryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s claim that he is proud of DEPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work to hold drillers accountable for water contamination problems that they have caused in Pennsylvania. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about enforcement,â&#x20AC;? Director Perry told a crowd at Tunkhannock Area High School in Wyoming County. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about penalizing operators that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t follow the rules. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about making them own up to their problems.â&#x20AC;? The drilling companies have contaminated groundwater in nearby Dimock Township and other communities, and I have yet to see any of the aquifers cleaned up. In fact, I have yet to see any of the drilling companies own up to their mistake. The recent fines levied by DEP that totaled around $2 million may seem like a lot,

but, to the drilling companies, it is peanuts. It is cheaper to pay the fines than it is to work carefully and to not make mistakes in the first place. The whole industry is driven by short-term profit. The only way to eliminate the cavalier attitude toward the environment is to make environmental disasters so expensive that the cost will far outweigh the excess profits generated by the actions that caused the disasters in the first place. Anyone who contaminates an aquifer should be forced to clean it up. Cleanups are neither fast nor cheap, but they can be and should be done. If the cost bankrupts the company, then so be it. That will serve as an excellent example to other drillers. One of the most frequent questions I hear is: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Can an aquifer contaminated by gas drilling be cleaned up?â&#x20AC;? I would direct anyone who thinks it canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t to my FAQ page on the Web at www.geturner.com/FAQ.html. I also feel that people who poison someone elseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water, either deliberately or through carelessness or negligence, should have criminal charges brought against them. George E.

Pay attention to home rule moves

ood suggestions were offered earlier this month to improve the job description for the executive to be hired for Luzerne County. These suggestions were voted on as changes by the majority of the transition team. I attended the recent work session of the personnel and recruiting subcommittee and spoke with Elizabeth Leo. I commend her! She stated to me: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to be part of the solution.â&#x20AC;? I

agree. That is the same reason I am a candidate for County Council. Letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all stay alert for the same purpose. I believe one important suggestion was overlooked. Commissioner Stephen Urban stated at a transition team meeting to include as part of the job description that the County Executive will work with the Controllerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office. I firmly believe to eliminate corruption in our county, the newly hired Luzerne County Executive must work with the Luzerne County Controller. The Controller will continue to provide audits and important suggestions to promote efficiency with accountability. It is an independent set of eyes. The manager, controller and council must work together to stop corrupt practices. I am concerned about the rush by former members of the Home Rule Study Commission. These members were not elected to hire the county manager. They placed themselves with a majority vote on the transition team. I hope the intention is not another political power grab. I encourage the public to go to the transition team meetings and get involved. Fill the room and be a part of this new direction for the benefit of all who live and work here. Give public comment and contribute your thoughts about the direction of these decisions using your tax dollars. Meetings are held the second and fourth Wednesdays each month at 6:30 p.m. in the commissioners meeting room of the Luzerne County Courthouse, 200 N. River St., Wilkes-Barre.

ur country needs serious immigration reform. There are literally millions of people in this country illegally. When our economy is running at full speed, we don’t notice jobs being lost to an illegal, underground work force. When unemployment is around 10 percent, it is far more noticeable. As such, U.S. Rep. Lamar Smith, a Texas Republican, recently proposed deeply flawed immigration reform legislation that I oppose. This bill not only stabs both the city of Hazleton and the state of Arizona in the back, it is an affront to state’s rights. The Supreme Court has upheld the constitutionality of cooperative enforcement, with the states and the federal government working together to restore the rule of law in immigration. This bill snatches defeat from the jaws of victory and tells the states that they can no longer take meaningful action to go after employers who knowingly hire unauthorized illegal immigrants.

Our two NEPA Congressmen, Lou Barletta and Tom Marino, should oppose this bill. To support it is to tie the states’ hands, forcing them to continue paying approximately $80 billion in fiscal costs caused by illegal immigration. Marie Nelson Wilkes-Barre

ments. Filing a base rate proceeding at the Public Utility Commission costs up to $2 million and takes almost a year to complete. Rep. Godshall’s legislation, House Bill 1294, addresses this problem by authorizing the PUC to approve alternative rate mechanisms that would allow more timely recovery of these costs. The General Assembly authorized an alternative rate mechanism for water utilities 15 years ago, which became a national model. The result has been a substantial increase in the replacement of old water mains, a gradual recovery of the costs as they are incurred subject to PUC oversight and very few customer complaints. It would be good public policy to extend tools such as this to increase investment in

other types of critical utility infrastructure, which would enhance the reliability and safety of utility service. A growing number of other states are doing so – for example, 19 states allow natural gas utilities to recover the cost of replacing aged gas mains between rate cases. If we want to stimulate more investment to replace aged infrastructure than we are currently getting, we need new policies. House Bill 1294 would achieve the desired results. Terrance J.

animals for food, but also to the modern methods of raising them by the thousands in huge confinement sheds which causes severe physical and psychological suffering. A meat-centered diet also contributes to world hunger, because the feeding of protein crops to animals is an inefficient use of food resources. There are also issues of deforestation, heavy water usage, and soil erosion. As Americans become more health conscious, many are taking the advice of contemporary medical professionals and holistic practioners who advocate cessation of meat consumption. Humans can also become immune to antibiotics since the animals are injected with them to combat the high stress factor of intensive confinement. Eating barbecued animals on the Fourth of July violates the spirit of the holiday, which celebrates the preservation of life and survival in the face of hardship.

In June 21, 1979, President Jimmy Carter spoke against a backdrop of solar panels at the White House. Last October, the Obama administration announced plans to install solar panels on the roof of the White House by the spring of this year. But spring has come and gone, and the promised panels have yet to see the light of day.

SOLAR Continued from Page 1E

weeks later. But the missed deadline has left him downcast. “Nine months is a pretty long time. You can have a baby in that time,” he said. “On the list of things that get done, this isn’t all that hard. It doesn’t require SEAL Team 6. It just requires a goodfaith effort. You can just open the Yellow Pages and get page after page of solar installers.” Solar power advocates note that rooftop arrays are no longer the expensive oddity they were in Carter’s day. Depending on their locations, homeowners can install systems that will pay for themselves over time. Administration officials counter that the White House isn’t just any old home. “To be honest, I am not surprised,” said Danny Kennedy, founder of Oakland, Calif., based Sungevity Systems, who said the delay’s likely due to the complexity of such a project at the White House. “They’re trying to get it right on the most famous home in the world, and there’d be all sorts of heritage rules and red tape.” So when will the panels actually appear? The Energy Department says it’s “on the path” to completing the project. But details and timing can only be shared “after the competitive procurement process is completed.” Despite the missed deadline, officials maintain climate issues and energy conservation have been a top priority under Obama. They point to higher gas-mileage standards, green-tech incentives in the stimulus plan and presidential visits to wind turbine and electric-vehicle battery plants. One effort, dubbed the “SunShot Initiative,” is a competition that aims to slash the cost of solar power and make it “quicker, easier and cheaper to install.” But environmentalists look at Obama’s plans to boost offshore oil drilling and the collapse of cli-

mate change legislation and say the administration’s record is mixed. Especially for someone whose convention acceptance speech promised future generations would see his tenure as “the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal.” The record on solar power at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue began in June 1979, when Carter had 32 panels installed at a cost of $30,000 to provide hot water to West Wing offices. Carter knew his solar panels were an experiment. “A generation from now, this solar heater can either be a curiosity, a museum piece, an example of a road not taken, or it can be just a small part of one of the greatest and most exciting adventures undertaken by the American people,” he said. His successor, Ronald Reagan, was unimpressed. Aides had the panels removed and shipped to Unity College in Maine, where some of them remain. Carter wasn’t the only president to tap the sun’s energy. In early 2003, without a big announcement, George W. Bush’s administration had a modest system installed on the roofs of several maintenance buildings to generate small amounts of power for the White House complex and heated water for the mansion’s outdoor pool. Obama, in his public pronouncements, has aggressively promoted solar power along with wind and biofuels as ways of combatting global warming and weaning America off its expensive imported oil habit. He’s also declared the federal government should “lead by example” on solar. However, the administration has long known there might be federal contracting hurdles. To accompany the White House project announcement in October, the Energy Department published a handbook titled “Procuring Solar Energy: A Guide for Federal Facility Decision Makers.” It ran to 104 pages.

task of taking back most or all of the nine swing-voting states that Obama won in 2008 and that Democrat John Kerry lost in 2004: Florida, North Carolina, Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Iowa, Colorado, Nevada and New Mexico. “There are a million different maps,” Wiley said. But the GOP’s priorities start with those nine “top tier” states. To oust Obama, the Republicans don’t need to win all nine. If Obama keeps his grip on the Western states of Nevada, Colorado and New Mexico, and the Republican nominee wins the other six of the nine swing states, the GOP would reclaim the White House with 271electoral votes. That’s assuming other states vote the same as in 2008. Obama’s situation becomes more perilous if he loses a state that Democrats have won for several elections, although often narrowly. That might include Pennsylvania, Michigan or Wisconsin, a state that Democrats took by a whisker in 2000 and

THE TIMES LEADER 2004. Obama handily won it in 2008. Republican governors replaced Democrats last year in all those states, along with Iowa, New Mexico and Ohio. In these battlegrounds with newly elected Republican governors, Wiley said, “you have that infrastructure that doesn’t get dismantled, and it’s a huge, huge advantage” to the 2012 GOP presidential nominee. Not so, Democrats say. New GOP governors such as Scott Walker in Wisconsin, John Kasich in Ohio and Rick Scott in Florida have clashed bitterly with various groups, especially unions. The result could be a fired-up Democratic base turning out heavily for Obama. Top Democrats say it’s unlikely that Obama will lose Pennsylvania, which always draws huge attention but has voted Democratic in the last five presidential elections. Privately, those close to Obama worry more about Ohio, which has 18 electoral votes. Its

unemployment rate, 8.6 percent, is slightly below the national average. But its population growth is almost flat, and it doesn’t have the large numbers of unregistered minorities and young adults that the Obama campaign is targeting in other states. No Republican has been elected president without carrying Ohio. Of the nine targeted states that Kerry lost, Obama needs to hold only Ohio and one small state — say, Nevada or Iowa — to win re-election, assuming the other states vote the same as in 2008. Florida, with 29 electoral votes, is even more vital. If Obama holds no other state but Florida among the top-tier nine, he wins a second term. Finally, several plausible map scenarios would leave the 2012 presidential nominees in a 269269 electoral tie. That would hand the decision to the U.S. House, where Republicans expect to hold their majority even if they suffer some losses.

ne glance at the choir loft inside St. Nicholas Church in Wilkes-Barre and you see a row of pipes. That could lead you, quite reasonably, to believe the church has an old-fashioned pipe organ. But it doesn’t. At least not yet. Those gleaming metal relics are a facade, remnants of a pipe organ that was replaced in 1980 with an electronic model that, quite frankly, has seen better days. “Imagine if you had a 31-year-old computer,” said organist Ed Loch, who has been playing the 1980 model for almost a quarter century. “This type is not made anymore. It was one of the first computerized models. It’s always needing repairs, and its parts are obsolete.”

This space, a few ladder steps above the choir-loft floor, already has most of its pipes removed. The holes show where they stood for years.

In a classic case of buyer’s remorse, the late Monsignor Joseph Meier “would often say to me they were so sorry they bought it,” said Monsignor Joseph Rauscher, who succeeded Meier as church pastor. For music-lovers, Loch said, the electronic organ – even before it started breaking down – was at best a CD, while a real pipe organ is a live Philharmonic concert. “It can be a good representation of a great sound, but a pipe organ is the great sound. “Now we’re going for the great sound,” he said happily.

ing about $250,000 of a $750,000 capital campaign – to have organ builder Steve Sykes of Cedars, Montgomery County, take apart, rebuild and refurbish a Möller pipe organ. The instrument, built in 1921 in Hagerstown, Md., accompanied decades of hymnsinging in the former St. Casimir Church in Pittston, where the last Mass was celebrated in 2008. The painstaking transfer involves disassembling some 1,900 pipes, including flutelike cylinders as tiny and slender as a pencil as well as towering, pillar-like structures that are 8 See ORGAN, Page 5F

Muscular men of summer: Beefed-up action heroes have swaggered back into style By REBECCA KEEGAN Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — A barbarian has needs — a sword, a shield and roughly 56 chicken breasts a week. That’s what Jason Momoa ate while filming “Conan the Barbarian,” this summer’s big-screen reboot of the series that launched Arnold Schwarzenegger’s action movie career in 1982. Over a few months in 2010, Momoa, a 6-foot-4-inch Hawaiian actor and model, added about 30 pounds of muscle to his 205pound frame to play two highprofile, bare-chested plunderers — Conan and Khal Drogo, the 7foot-tall warrior-king marauding

on HBO’s “Game of Thrones.” Momoa isn’t the only actor whose T-shirts have gotten a lot tighter recently: Dwayne Johnson packed 30 pounds onto his already brawny 6-foot-4-inch frame to grapple as a lawman opposite meaty Vin Diesel in “Fast Five.” Chris Hemsworth gained so much bulk to wield “Thor’s” gi-

and walking mountains like Johnson were encouraged to winnow their physiques to get parts. Some of this muscling up of summer’s heroes is driven by comicbook aesthetics and some, academics say, by cyclical notions of masculinity: In times when men are losing financial or societal power, biceps the circumference of tree trunks are proof of virility. In addition to grueling workouts and meticulous nutrition, a number of celluloid hunks benefit from digital embellishments that make them appear even larger in marketing materials like

You will give yourself a pep talk when you’re down and calm yourself when you get overly caught up in the moment. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You’re breaking into new realms and could really use a coach. There are behaviors that are expected, but you have to know what they are to know how to execute them. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re extremely prescient lately.

Dear Faithful: I do agree with you. The cake-in-theface custom should have been retired at least 50 years ago. The significance of the “ritual” is extremely demeaning to women. According to the book “Curious Customs” by Tad Tuleja (Stonesong Press, 1987): “The cake-cutting at modern weddings is a fourstep comedic ritual that sustains masculine prerogatives in the very act of supposedly subverting them. “... in the first step of the comedy, the groom helps direct the bride’s hand — a symbolic demonstration of male control that was

She accepts this gesture and, as a further proof of submissiveness, performs the second step of the ritual, offering him the first bite of cake, the gustatory equivalent of her body, which he will have the right to ‘partake of’ later. “In the third step, the master-servant relationship is temporarily upset, as the bride mischievously pushes the cake into her new husband’s face. ... Significantly, this act of revolt is performed in a childish fashion, and the groom is able to endure it without losing face because it ironically demonstrates his superiority: His bride is an imp needing supervision. “That the bride herself accepts this view of this is demonstrated in the ritual’s final step, in which she wipes the goo apologetically from his face. This brings the play back to the beginning, as she is once again obedient to his wiser judgment. Thus, the entire tableau may be seen as a dramatization of the tensions in favor of the dominance of the male.” To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, selfaddressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O.

posters and billboards. Many moviegoers may also wonder whether actors use steroids to build their bodies. The actors interviewed for this story said they did not use illegal substances to pump themselves up. Yet some experts say the extreme images on screen, however achieved, may tempt men both in and outside of show business to consider using illicit products to keep up. Steroid use “still occurs in Hollywood,” said Logan Hood, a former Navy SEAL who whipped the Spartan army into shape for “300” and recently helped Zac Efron add 18 pounds to play a Marine in this fall’s “The Lucky One.” “I hear about that. That is insanity to consider that sort of option.” In the 1970s and ’80s, Schwarzenegger developed his Conan form through a championship bodybuilding career that he has admitted included the use of then-legal anabolic steroids. His bulging arms and massive chest replicated the look of heroic characters popularized by illustrator Frank Frazetta’s 1960s pulp paperback covers, which established a dramatic new standard in fantasy art. “In a perfect world, I’d like to look like a Frank Frazetta painting, without doing steroids,” Momoa said of the artistic inspiration for his pumped physique in “Conan.” Momoa said he followed a workout routine that included push-ups, pull-ups, squats and burpees (a torturous squat-jumppush-up hybrid) as well as a diet heavy in lean protein, broccoli, yams and peanut butter.

movies such as 2002’s “The Scorpion King” — pared a few years ago and dropped his ring name, The Rock, to take on softer films such as “The Tooth Fairy.” For “Fast Five,” Johnson packed back on the muscle. To reach a filming weight of 280 pounds — or, in action hero math, 1.5 Clint Eastwoods — the actor said he ate 6,000 to 8,000 calories a day and followed his regular iron-pumping regimen of “sweat, spit and sometimes training so hard I throw up a little bit in my mouth.” Johnson said he also took a daily multivitamin and glutamine, a supplement that aids in muscle recovery after workouts. “I wanted to create a character that audiences immediately identified as a physically dominant, intense beast of a man who at any time could remove his badge and gun and rip Vin’s face off with his

bare hands,” Johnson said of building his chest to 54 inches and his biceps to 23 inches. “No visual effects or green screen manufactured physicality — a real man.” Just what it means to be a real man in the world today is changing — and that’s part of what’s making muscles a growth industry in Hollywood, according to Emily Fox-Kales, author of “Body Shots: Hollywood and the Culture of Eating Disorders” and clinical instructor in psychiatry at Harvard University. “As men have lost more economic power, more social power, they’ve wanted to look more pumped up,” Fox-Kales said, pointing to the recent recession that disproportionately hit maledominated jobs like construction and manufacturing. “Muscles have become an accessory, like pickup trucks.”

feet tall. “The lowest C comes from the largest pipe,” Sykes said, offering his own version of “Organ 101” as he climbed around the choir loft at the former St. Casimir on a recent afternoon. He and his assistant, Jon Strack, politely declined to shake hands with a pair of visitors. “Ninety years of dirt and grime,” Sykes said, spreading palms blackened from the work. Dusty though the old organ may be, its pipes still sound

are 13 of them, in a forest in the Pacific Northwest. Even the most jaded teen will be blown away by this. Rates during the summer high season start at $120 per night. (Details: www.treehouses.com) “On site, you have zip-lining and some activities. You’re near Oregon Caves National Monument, which you can explore, and there’s hiking and rafting around the area.”

By MICHELLE WIENER For The Associated Press “The Storm at the Door” (Random House), by Stefan Merrill Block:

atharine and Frederick Merrill marry young and impulsively in the early 1940s. Over the next two decades, Katharine discovers her husband’s depression and problems with alcohol and worries about his mental health but remains dedicated to the promise of her marriage’s early days – until a wild night in 1962 leads to Frederick’s arrest, and Katharine is persuaded to commit Frederick to Mayflower, a psychiatric hospital. “The Storm at the Door” is based on author Stefan Merrill Block’s grandparents and these lost years of their marriage. It opens in1989 with his grandmother, in the early stages of Alzheimer’s, burning the letters his grandfather wrote from the asy-

lum. Block takes these letters, now lost, and commutes them into something else: “another place, not quite real, outside or within what happened. Another place, in which we can all be together, all be present to explain ourselves to one another as we cannot in all other places.” Not being bound by fact allows Block to imagine how his grandfather might have treated his confinement as an exercise in creativity, and in this he is joined by other men precariously balanced between genius and madness. Professor Schultz, for example, is working on transliterating the sounds that have surrounded him since childhood, a language that only he can hear and understand. Robert Lowell is also there, another inhabitant of this space between fact and fiction. Block also chronicles how Freder-

ick’s incarceration — and there are times at which it does seem as though Frederick and the other patients are being held against their will, at the mercy of the doctors who want to use them to further their own research — affects Katharine, dealing with the social stigma of her husband’s illness, and watching the money needed to raise their four daughters drain away. Block’s second novel is a remarkable, beguiling work of literary fiction. It is also a difficult book, not just for its portrait of a frustrating era in psychiatric treatment but also in its structure. As Frederick and Katharine are isolated — from each other and society — the narrative is mostly internal, philosophical, and this can be a challenge to get through. The rewards for doing so, however, are significant.

We’re talking about a multigenerational thing “Build a trip around a state fair — one of the huge ones, like in Minnesota (www.mnstatefair.org) or Texas (www.bigtex.com): These are spectacles. I wouldn’t say they have gourmet food, but it’s fun food. The entertainment isn’t bluegrass from down the block: National and international entertainers take the stage. It’s big-production Americana that also has razzmatazz. “Older folks will like some of the displays — the jam competitions and all that, but some fairs have wine tents. Younger people will go for thrill rides and performances. “All ages can keep busy, and it’s something you can’t do in just one afternoon.” We’re foodies — in search of cheap but great eats “Drive the ‘Pie Trail’ in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Both have a Scandinavian heritage, and great bakers make incredible pies. I went to the Norske Nook, in Osseo, Wis., where for $2 or $3 you get a slice of sour cream and raisin pie. There’s a whole great route you can do: Eat your way toward Duluth! If you need a break for fun stuff, visit the Apostle Islands in Lake Superior.” I gotta escape this techno-crazed world “Tumbler Ridge is a mining town — a newer one — in British Columbia. The reason to go: It has the most incredible waterfall you’ll ever see. It’s as tall as Niagara and is wider. Niagara is spectacular, but Kinuseo Falls in Monkman Provincial Park isn’t surrounded by casinos and mini-golf courses. It’s in the wilderness — 40 miles from the nearest town but close to dozens of other waterfalls (Details: www.tumblerridge.ca) We need something cultural our kids won’t choke on “Spend a night at a museum: Museums across the country have sleep-ins or overnight camping. The programs are usually geared to locals, but in reality anybody can do this — and it’s a cheap night. “One of my favorites, where the ‘Night in the Museum’ movie was set, is the American Museum of Natural History, in New York. I don’t know if Ben Stiller is still running around, but you can sleep on the floor and explore the museum on your own. Going through its Dinosaur Hall by flashlight is super cool. They have special programs about different kinds of animals. “You can literally sleep under a giant blue whale. (Details: www.amnh.org) “Kids will remember this trip all their lives. “By the way, at Monterey Bay Aquarium in California, the best place to sleep on the floor is next to the jellyfish. Because of the way the tank is lit, it’s like sleeping next to your own organic lava lamp.” (Details: www.montereybayaquarium.org)

sweet – a fact Sykes proved as he blew into one, holding it as if it were a clarinet. “It’s made from a mix of lead and tin with a little bit of nickel,” he said. “You could squeeze it with your hand and collapse the pipe. That’s how fragile they are. “The more fragile they are, the more mellow the sound.” Loch, the organist, is thrilled St. Nicholas will be able to use the pipe organ and its mellow sounds – and he’s not the only music-lover excited about it. “It’s like a rebirth of this instrument,” longtime choir member Tina Kellar said, explaining she felt emotional when she visited the former St. Casimir and imag-

ined how the congregation must have felt when the church closed. “I went there and saw this beautiful organ, and I thought, I can just imagine the people hearing that for the last time and the doors closing.” “I think it will be wonderful for the area to have another great organ in the city,” she said, brightening as she compared the Möller to the refurbished Berghaus organ at St. Stephen’s Episcopal Pro-Cathedral in Wilkes-Barre. Loch hopes St. Stephen’s Mark Laubach, whom he considers “the finest organist around,” will give a concert on the Möller at St. Nicholas when it is ready, perhaps in December 2012.

“I’ll make a point of making myself available,” Laubach said last week. “This is a big event in the life of a church. “I think it’s extremely important to support and encourage them in what they’re doing. Far too many churches nowadays get rid of their pipe organs and replace them with digital instruments that may do the job initially and will sound great and be cheaper. “But, in the long run, just like computers, anything high-tech has a shorter lifespan before things become obsolete,” Laubach continued. “A pipe organ is actually a very low-tech instrument. There are some that were

built in the1400s and1500s in Europe, and they’re still working.” When the Möller organ is reassembled, it will have 32 ranks, or sets of pipes, each of which contributes a specific sound, such as the sound of a viola or a saxophone. The plan is for 26 of the ranks to come from St. Casimir’s organ and six new ones to be manufactured by a supplier in Erie. It’s not a rush job, Sykes said, explaining the metal must “cure” for at least six months after it is poured. It will be worth the wait, Loch said. “You can hear the sound of a pipe organ; you can feel the

sound,” he said. “You become part of the experience.” “There’s no comparison to the weight and sound of the real thing,” Laubach agreed. “I’m not a musician,” said Rauscher, the pastor, “but I’m sure it will be wonderful.” As he packed various pipes earlier this month, Sykes said the Möller will be reconfigured to fit the space at St. Nicholas, which is taller and narrower than the space at St. Casimir. When it fills that space, Loch said, the sound of the pipe organ will be magnificent and well-suited for concerts as well as liturgies. “We have remarkable acoustics.”

Napa now a destination in itself By MICHELLE LOCKE

For The Associated Press

Some of the gardens at Newton Vineyards in St. Helena, Calif. With its lush scenery and luscious wines, the Napa Valley is the kind of place you could spend days exploring. But it’s compact enough that even if you have only an afternoon you can still get a taste of wine country. An ivy-covered wall of Beaulieu Vineyards in Rutherford, Calif.

restaurant with three Michelin stars, The French Laundry, and three one-star restaurants, Redd, Bouchon, and at the Domaine Chandon winery, Etoile. After that comes the community of Oakville, where you can stop at the Oakville Grocery for picnic supplies, and Rutherford, home to Beaulieu Vineyard and the reasonably priced (and often packed) Rutherford Grill. Prepare to slow down when you hit St. Helena; here Highway 29 turns into the boutique-lined main street of this small city. A point of interest is the Culinary Institute of America, Greystone, housed in a castle-like building

that was once the Christian Brothers winery. You can dine here at the Wine Spectator restaurant. Also in St. Helena is Newton Vineyard, which boasts a formal English garden set on a rooftop. (Visits to this winery are by appointment only.) Zinfandel Lane connects St. Helena to the Silverado Trail, and one of the wineries along the lane is Raymond Vineyards. This property is undergoing major renovations under the hand of new owner JeanCharles Boisset; check out the Crystal Cellar, an extravaganza of lights, art and Baccarat crystal.

A couple make their way into the Darioush winery in Napa. The winery is notable for its striking architecture, which incorporates references to Persepolis, the capital of ancient Persia.

The valley ends in Calistoga, a 19th-century hot-springs resort that is home to a number of wineries including Schramsberg, a sparkling wine house with atmospheric caves dug by Chinese workers in the 1870s. Of course, there’s much more to explore in the Napa Valley from hilltop wineries with breathtaking views to wineries featuring displays of art treasures. But not to worry, you can check those out the next time you have a free afternoon.

APA, Calif. — Blessed with lavish scenery and luscious wines, the Napa Valley is the kind of place you could spend days exploring. But it’s compact enough that even if you only have an afternoon, you can still get a taste of wine country. About an hour’s drive northeast of San Francisco, the valley starts south of Napa and stretches about 30 miles north to Calistoga. To get here from San Francisco, drive north on the Golden Gate Bridge and then take the Highway 37 exit going east to Highway 121/12, following the signs to Napa. From the east San Francisco Bay, take I-80 east to the Napa exit (Highway 37 east) and then go north on Highway 29. There are two main routes through the valley. Highway 29 is a straight shot from Napa to Calistoga and hits all the big names such as Opus One and Francis Ford Coppola’s Rubicon Estate. But it can get awfully crowded in summer. The other route is the Silverado Trail, which avoids the towns, is quieter and has breathtaking views. The easiest way to pick up the trail is to take Highway 29 to the Trancas Street exit and go east, turning left on Silverado Trail. Wineries along this long and winding road include Stags’ Leap Winery, the winery that made the red that beat the French at the famous Paris tasting of 1976, and Darioush, notable for its striking architecture which incorporates references to Persepolis, the capital of ancient Persia. Lunch options along the trail include picking up a sandwich at the Soda Canyon Store. The valley is only a few miles wide, so you can easily get back to Highway 29 by using the Oakville, Yountville or Rutherford cross roads. Taking the Highway 29 route, your journey begins in Napa, which used to be a place you blew through on the way to quainter spots, but these days is a destination in itself, with a refurbished riverfront and a bustling downtown. Some standouts are Morimoto restaurant, opened by Iron Chef Masaharu Morimoto, and Angele, a French-style restaurant overlooking the river. A few miles north, the town of Yountville is a mecca for the din-
