Obama: Social Security checks at risk Senate GOP leader’s plan has Congress giving up authority to determine the debt ceiling. By CHRISTI PARSONS and LISA MASCARO Tribune Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama said that he “cannot guarantee” that millions of Social Security beneficiaries will get their checks as scheduled next month unless he and congressional leaders agree to raise the nation’s debt limit by Aug. 2,

a warning that came as both sides ratcheted up the tension over the monthlong standoff over the debt. Amid a volley of charges and countercharges over who would bear responsibility for a crisis, the Senate’s Republican leader proposed a complex new plan under which Congress would largely surrender its authority to determine the debt ceiling. The plan, offered by Sen. Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., would force Obama to repeatedly ask for additional debt, which could be politically advantageous to

Plucenik, a director at the maternity home; the Ark Learning Center, Inc.; Barb Giordano; Juanita Sarnak; and Lighthouse Prison Ministries. The case was scheduled Tuesday before Luzerne County Senior Judge Chester Muroski to allow attorneys to argue objections the defendants had to the lawsuit. Another hearing was scheduled for later this month for argument on Ortiz not appearing at a deposition on June 8. Ortiz has had custody of the child, Kayla, since February 2010. According to the suit, Tomchak gave birth to Kayla in September 2008. At the time, Tomchak had been released from the county prison on parole about a month before the child’s birth. A representative from His Resting Place contacted Tomchak about placing the child for adoption. Ortiz alleged the representative told Tomchak that if she revealed the identity of the child’s father, the infant would be placed with Children and Youth. If she said she did not know the father’s identify, the child could be placed up for adoption. About a month after the child’s birth, Tomchak advised Ortiz that adoption proceedings were pending and sent a letter to His Resting Place, advising the agency she knew the father’s identity. By that time the child had been placed with the proposed adoptive parents. On Oct. 15, Ortiz advised the agency in writing that he did not consent to the adoption and initiated a custody proceeding in county court. Ortiz’s attorney contacted a representative with His Resting Place on Oct. 22, but the agency maintained it did not know the identity of the child’s father. Ortiz next sought to have a paternity test performed, but his efforts were delayed because several letters that were sent certified mail to The Ark Learning Center were ignored, Ortiz alleged in the suit. The test was finally performed in December and a month later confirmed Ortiz was the child’s father. The suit had sought more than $100,000 in damages for negligence.

Road closed for a week

By JANINE UNGVARSKY Times Leader Correspondent

PRINGLE -- Despite votes on multiple proposals and more than an hour and a half of discussion, the West Side Career & Technology Center still has no operating budget, leaving board members and administrators pondering just what it will take to pass a budget, and what will happen if they can’t. “You can’t operate the school without a budget, and if you don’t pass a budget, this school is going to be closed down,” Solicitor Charles Coslett said, noting that teachers would still have to be paid the wages they earned last school year and collect during the summer. For only the second time in nearly three “You can’t decades, the school operate was forced to call the the school entire joint board of directors – all without a school 45 directors from the five sending schools – budget, into session to atand if you tempt to resolve a don’t pass budget impasse. The joint operata budget, school’s ing committee, comthis school prising three directors is going to from each of the five sending schools, be closed passed a budget last month, but that buddown.” get needed to be ratCharles Coslett ified by a mail vote of Solicitor the 45 member joint board. Coslett said that in that vote by mail ballot, the full board failed to pass the $6,083,373 budget, which eliminated all sports as well as the recruiter and in school suspension monitor positions. That failure led to the special meeting Tuesday that just barely drew the required 23 members to hold the meeting. Three additional members of the joint board joined the meeting by phone. The board considered and voted on several alternate budget proposals, including one that restored sports but not the two staff positions and separate proposals that added back sports and the recruiter position as both a fulltime and a half-time position.

WILKES-BARRE – Employees in two downtown office buildings were sent home early Tuesday afternoon when a broken utility pole with three electrical power transformers leaned against one of the structures. Fire Chief Jay Delaney ordered evacuations of the Phoenix Plaza Building and the CareerLink Center on East Union Street shortly before 2:30 p.m. when the transformers began leaking an oily substance. Rich Beasley, PPL spokesperson, said the leaking substance was an oil that is used as a coolant. “There were transformers that were damaged and leaking,” Beasley said. “What the transformers are filled with is mineral oil. There are certainly no environmental hazards from this.” A wooden utility pole appeared to have snapped at the ground and See POLE, Page 7A

Lehman Twp. woman identified as Larksville crash victim Barbara Carbohn, 70, was ejected from her vehicle in a two-car collision on Route 11 on Monday. By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

LARKSVILLE – An autopsy performed Tuesday on the body of Barbara Carbohn determined the Lehman Township woman died from multiple traumatic injuries as a result of a violent two-vehicle crash at a busy intersection. Carbohn, 70, of Lehman Outlet Road, was ejected from a Chevrolet when it collided with a Subaru at U.S. Route 11 and the Carey Avenue Bridge

It remains unknown what direction Carbohn was traveling when her vehicle was struck by the Subaru, which had heavy front-end damage. Carbohn’s vehicle was struck on the driver’s side. The four-lane bridge opened in December 2002 at a cost of $25.7 million, which replaced an aging twolane bridge that has since been demol-

GOP-Dems game on radio Can’t go out to the old ballpark Thursday in person but curious about how U.S. Rep.

The Hazleton Republican, a freshman lawmaker, tried out for the Cincinnati Reds in his younger days and more than three decades later at Barletta age 55 is a hot recruit for the GOP team. He’s expecting to do some pitching, possibly play the outfield and hopes to lace a few hits past the Democratic infield. There’s no television broadcast of the game, which begins at 7:05 p.m. at Nationals Park, the home to Washington’s MLB team. But the game is being aired via Radio America (www.radioamerica.org) and on Sirius/XM satellite radio on the POTUS channel.

Discovery deadline issued in Weidlich suit vs. county over pact By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

Pittston businessman Barton Weidlich’s lawsuit against Luzerne County over a canceled billboard and bench advertising contract is still winding through court. Weidlich, 42, was sentenced in April to two years probation as part of the federal corruption probe. He pleaded guilty a year ago to attempting to obstruct justice by threatening a person who had agreed to secretly record conversations with him. He filed a suit in August 2008 through his Pittston-based business, Roadside Advertisements Inc., seeking $134,395 from the county Convention and Visitors Bureau for unpaid rent, interest and attorney fees, according to court paperwork. County Judge Lewis W. Wetzel issued an order this week in-

Casey pursues federal aid for Plymouth area By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

U.S. Sen. Robert Casey is seeking federal aid to repair damages caused by devastating flash flooding in and around Plymouth because the borough does not have the resources to fund the repairs on its own. Casey said he wrote to the administrators of the Federal Emergency Management Agency and the U.S. Small Business Administration requesting help. “Simply stated, neither the state nor local governments have the capabilities or resources necessary to effectively respond to this disaster,” wrote Casey. “I also strongly urge that federal resources be utilized to help these communities undertake mitigation measures in order to reduce or eliminate long-term risk to people and property.” Sections of Plymouth, Plymouth Township and Jackson Township were heavily damaged when a July 3 storm dropped around a half-foot of rain in about 30 minutes, causing Coal Street Creek to overflow. Casey, D-Scranton, toured affected areas on Friday. Though FEMA’s official assessment of the damages has not yet been released, initial estimates have pegged the cost of cleanup at $5 million to $6 million, less than the $16 million required for a presidential declaration of disaster area, but Plymouth Borough Manager Joe Mazur said his town doesn’t have the money to pay all the repair bills. Mazur said he doesn’t know how much the borough has spent on cleanup efforts because the disaster happened on a holiday weekend and the borough offered work to whichever contractors were available. Casey said the Small Business Administration provides federally subsidized loans to homeowners, renters and businesses to replace homes, businesses and property that sustained damage not covered by insurance. Mazur said the cleanup effort is going well because so many volunteers have helped out. Mazur added that Plymouth officials are grateful for the efforts of those volunteers.

structing both sides to complete discovery within 120 days. County Senior Judge Chester B. Muroski had already ruled that the company must take its lawsuit to trial if it wants to recoup money. Roadside had attempted to exercise a shortcut “confession of judgment” clause in its contract,

which allows a judge to rule on breach of contract claims without a jury trial. Muroski had said court filings from the county demonstrated that there was enough evidence in the case to warrant a trial. The Convention and Visitors Bureau board had voted unanimously in 2008 to stop paying for

the billboard advertisements after county officials discovered the contract had not been bid out as required by the county’s purchasing policy or approved by county commissioners as required by state law. Weidlich regularly received nobid business in the county and was friends with several past

high-ranking county officials. West Chester attorney William J. Shehwen III, who is representing Roadside, has said he is confident his client will prevail at trial because Roadside had a signed contract that had been honored by the county until payments suddenly stopped. Taxpayers have criticized the

Roadside contract, questioning the dollar amount and need to advertisetourismwithinthecounty. The bureau had been paying $2,800 per month plus a $2,600 annual production charge for a billboard measuring 14 feet by 45 feet in Pittston and $500 a month and a $2,225 production charge for four bench ads.

WASHINGTON -- How many government bureaucrats does it take to screw in a light bulb? A lot of House Republicans say the answer should be “none.” They say the government should just stay out of it. To them, those newfangled curly fluorescent light bulbs are the last straw, another example of an overreaching government that’s forcing people to buy health insurance, prodding them to get

Republicans in control of the House moved toward a vote late Monday on legislation that would seek to overturn light bulb energy-efficiency standards and keep the marketplace clear for the cheap, energy-wasting bulbs that have changed little since Thomas Edison invented them in 1879. The standards in question do not specifically ban the old bulbs but require a higher level of efficiency than the classics can produce, essentially nudging

them off store shelves during the next few years. Four of Edison’s descendants said the great inventor would be mortified to see politicians trying to get the nation to hang on to an outdated technology when better bulbs are available. The standards have not been particularly contentious before now. They were crafted in 2007 with Republican participation and signed into law by President George W. Bush. People seem to like the new choices and the energy savings they bring, polling finds. But now they have become a symbol of a much larger divide in Washington over the size and reach of government itself. The new bulbs suggest to some conservatives that big government is running amok.

White House said President Bashar Assad has “lost legitimacy” and the U.N. Security Council unanimously condemned attacks on the U.S. and French embassies in Damascus. It was a sharp escalation in pressure on Assad and a sign that the Obama administration could be moving closer to calling for regime change in Syria over the violent crackdown on a fourmonth-old uprising. Previously, the U.S. position on Assad was that he should lead a transition to democracy or leave. “President Assad is not indispensable,” White House spokesman Jay Carney told reporters in Washington on Tuesday. “We had called on him to lead this transition. He clearly has not, and he has lost legitimacy by refusing to lead the transition.” The Syrian Foreign Ministry condemned the U.S. comments as “provocative.”

‘Gilligan’s’ creator dies Sherwood Schwartz, writer-creator of two of the best-remembered TV series of the 1960s and 1970s, “Gilligan’s Island” and “The Brady Bunch,” has died at age 94. Great niece Robin Randall said Schwartz died at 4 a.m. Tuesday at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, where he was being treated for an intestinal infection and underwent several surgeries. His wife, Mildred, and children had been at his side. Sherwood Schwartz and his brother, Al, started as a writing team in TV’s famed 1950s “golden age,” said Douglas Schwartz, the late Al Schwartz’s son. Sherwood Schwartz was born in 1916 in Passaic, N.J., and grew up in Brooklyn, N.Y. Besides his wife, Schwartz’s survivors include sons Donald, Lloyd and Ross Schwartz, and daughter Hope Juber.

Rupert Murdoch’s cozy relationship with the British power structure came to an abrupt end Tuesday after Prime Minister David Cameron joined the opposition in calling for the media magnate to withdraw his bid for control of a lucrative satellite broadcaster. Cameron’s turnabout means all three major political parties are now lined up against Murdoch in his bid for the BSkyB gold mine, which enjoys profits that dwarf revenue from his dwindling British newspaper holdings. The news came in a stunning announcement from Cameron’s office indicating that the government would join the opposition in a parliamentary vote Wednesday urging Murdoch — who until recently kept British politicians in his hip pocket — to withdraw the bid

A final call for unity By JEFF WILSON and JOHN ROGERS Associated Press

PALM DESERT, Calif. — First ladies, past and present, and others who called the White House home remembered Betty Ford on Tuesday, not just for her decades-long work against substance abuse but for her contributions to a political era when friendship among lawmakers helped them govern. Speakers, including former first lady Roslynn Carter and journalist Cokie Roberts, also hailed her as a force of nature whose boundless energy and enthusiasm, coupled with a steadfast determination to do what was right, pushed the country toward a commitment to equal rights for women and other causes. Ford, who died at the age of 93 on Friday, reshaped the role of first lady with her plain-spoken candidness. In doing so, she helped bring such previously taboo subjects as breast

cancer into the public discussion as she openly discussed her own battle with the disease. She was equally candid about her struggles with drug and alcohol abuse, and her spearheading of the creation of the Betty Ford Center to treat those diseases has benefited thousands. “Millions of women are in her debt today and she was never afraid to speak the truth even about the most sensitive subjects, including her own struggle with alcohol and pain killers,” Carter said. “She got some

criticism, but I thought she was wonderful and her honesty gave to others every single day.” The former first lady mapped out plans for her funeral well in advance, including who would deliver her eulogies, and Roberts said she told her to be sure to let people know that politics does not have to be as acrimonious as it is today. “Mrs. Ford wanted me to remind everyone of the way things used to be in Washington, and I wouldn’t be surprised if she timed her death so she could deliver the message of comity when it was so badly needed,” she said as former President George W. Bush, a Republican, sat in the audience next to Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, a Democrat. Sitting in the same pew with them were first lady Michelle Obama, former first lady Nancy Reagan and Carter.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, but officials immediately cast doubt that they were involved. If they were, it could undercut the president’s own effort to talk peace with insurgents as foreign forces begin their exit. The gunman’s motive was unclear. He was identified as Sardar Mohammad, who had provided security for Wali Karzai and members of his family. Tooryalai Wesa, the provincial governor of Kandahar, described Mohammad as a close, “trustworthy” person who had gone to Wali Karzai’s house purportedly to get him to sign some papers. The two men met alone in a room. As Wali Karzai was signing the papers, the assassin “took out a pistol and shot him with two bullets — one in the forehead and one in the chest,” Wesa said. Another official, however, said the wounds were to Wali Karzai’s head, hand and leg. Wali Karzai’s bodyguards then rushed into the room and gunned down Mohammad.

Doctor: Parents of obese kids should lose custody By LINDSEY TANNER AP Medical Writer

CHICAGO — Should parents of extremely obese children lose custody for not controlling their kids’ weight? A provocative commentary in one of the nation’s most distinguished medical journals argues yes, and its authors are joining a quiet chorus of advocates who say the government should be allowed to intervene in extreme cases. It has happened a few times in the U.S., and the opinion piece in today’s Journal of the American Medical Association says putting children temporarily in foster care is in some cases more ethical than obesity surgery. Dr. David Ludwig, an obesity specialist at Harvardaffiliated Children’s Hospital Boston, said the point isn’t to blame parents, but rather to act in children’s

best interest and get them help that for whatever reason their parents can’t provide. State intervention “ideally will support not just the child but the whole family, with the goal of reuniting child and family as soon as possible. That may require instruction on parenting,” said Ludwig, who wrote the article with Lindsey Murtagh, a lawyer and a researcher at Harvard’s School of Public Health. “Despite the discomfort posed by state intervention, it may sometimes be necessary to protect a child,” Murtagh said. But University of Pennsylvania bioethicist Art Caplan said he worries that the debate risks putting too AP PHOTO much blame on parents.

parcel owned by William and Priscilla Perry. The proposed site is about 1,800 feet from the four Dallas schools. Several issues were disputed at the meeting, including whether the township’s subdivision and land development ordinance can determine pipeline easements and if zoning applies to pipeline construction within the township. Dallas Township officials are currently in negotiation with Williams to determine whether zoning applies to pipelines and other factors involved in the pipeline’s and the company’s proposed natural gas metering station’s construction.

and called it “troubling” that others had not come when the stakes are so high. “They have an obligation to the kids who come here,” he said. After the meeting, board members and administrators clustered in small groups and expressed frustration, wondering aloud what it was going to take to pass a budget. While no official decision was reached, some expressed the opinion that

the most likely next course of action would be to hold a meeting of only the 15 member joint operating committee to hash out another budget proposal to send out for another mail ballot. “We put up different motions and none of them passed,” said Rossi. “But I won’t leave this until we send out ballots, probably by certified mail, so we can get this done and do everything possible to get this school open on time for the kids.”

zerne/Schuylkill Workforce Investment Board offices, which are located in the plaza building, closed early, sending employees and job seekers home. Both offices are expected to open at their normal times today. City firefighters closed the area to pedestrians as PPL crews began repairing the utility pole.

Beasley said no customers experienced a power outage. No injuries were reported. East Union, North Main and North Washington streets remained open to traffic during the incident. Beasley said once repairs are made, crews will investigate to determine why the utility pole leaned against the building.

DALLAS TWP. – The Dallas Township Planning Commission met with representatives from Williams Field Services LLC on Tuesday to further discuss plans for subdivision and land development involved for its 33-mile natural gas pipeline. No final decision was made on the matter, but the commission approved several application waivers requested by the company. Planning Commission Chairman Jack Dodson advised the board that whatever decision was made on certain matters, it would affect future proceedings

with other natural gas companies. Williams is proposing to construct its 33½-mile Springville Gathering Line from Springville Township in Susquehanna County, through several townships in Wyoming County and into Franklin and Dallas townships in Luzerne County. The line would tap into the Williams-owned Transco interstate pipeline, which is located underground near the Dallas School District campus, in order to send the natural gas to market. The company is looking for approval for subdivision of a 4-acre

MEETINGS Propane site disputed DORRANCE TWP. – Officials of Button Oil Company, Mountain Top, are in dispute with the township’s zoning officer over a propane center that Button is attempting to establish off Interstate 81 near the Blue Ridge Trail Truck Plaza. At Monday’s board of supervisors meeting, Zoning Officer Alan Snelson said Button has failed to obtain all permits, including building and state Department of Labor & Industry permits, required for the site and failed to file a detailed plan with the township zoning board. Snelson added these are major violations. Edward Button, an officer of the fuel distribution company, argued the company has obtained required state and federal permits for what he described as a 30,000-gallon storage tank to be placed at that location. Button said a plan dating from 1991, “signed and accepted by the supervisors and zoning officials of that time,” had been submitted to Snelson, but Button said Snelson won’t accept it. Along with the plan, Button added an amended plan was presented designating the storage tank. He said the tank is intended as propane storage in order to fill delivery trucks. Snelson said a complaint was filed in February 2010 before District Judge Ron Swank of Mountain Top in which Button was ordered to cease operations at the proposed propane center. He said fines of up to $500 per day could be imposed against Button. Tom Huntington Firefighters, clerk honored HANOVER TWP. – Township commissioners Monday honored firefighter Travis Temarantz for his role in saving the lives of two Lee Park Tower residents on May 14, 2011. Temarantz was dispatched to the tower shortly after midnight and learned that the alarm was sounded for Room 615. Upon arriving at the room, Temarantz encountered heavy smoke and fire and rushed into the room and found a semi-conscious man. Temarantz quickly moved him to the safety of the paramedics and then returned and extinguished the fire. After performing an additional check of the adjacent rooms, Temarantz rescued an elderly woman whose room was filling with smoke and took her to safety while providing her oxygen from his mask. Commissioners also honored Sharon Forsey for her 20 years

of service to the township as a confidential police clerk in the police department and John “Jack” Rudeski for his 34 years as a fire truck and rescue driver. He was also a founding member of the Hanover Township water rescue. In addition, the commissioners approved a payment of $20,316 to Ed Krasavage Construction for emergency sanitary sewer work performed at Coal Property off the Sans Souci Parkway. Scott L. Gomb

Editorial

OUR OPINION: HELP W-B FLOURISH

A pride of place begins with you

AN GREATER Wilkes-Barre again thrive? We posed that question in Tuesday’s editorial while making the case for less grousing and more grassroots involvement – for more men and women like you to pose solutions to our community’s shortcomings and to push for continued progress. Today, we suggest some potential starting points. • Beautify neighborhoods. Organize volunteer crews to do exterior painting, landscaping and minor repairs on weather-beaten homes. In other places, these programs go by names such as “Paint the Town” or “A Brush with Kindness.” For information, visit Habitat for Humanity International’s website, at www.habitat.org/getinv/ brush_with_kindness.aspx. • Boost safety. Expand participation in volunteer outfits such as the Guardian Angels and Crime Watch, helping to improve perceptions about troubled city districts and possibly to deter crimes. For starters, contact the Wilkes-Barre Crime Watch Coalition at 2088900 or visit its website, www.wbcrimewatch.org. • Draw families. A strong school district usually pulls in young families, so demand bet-

ter of Wilkes-Barre Area. Parental involvement can propel changes, and a movement is afoot to pay stipends to a parent at each of eight schools to recruit dedicated moms and dads. The next board meeting is at 6 tonight in the district’s administration building, 730 S. Main St., Wilkes-Barre. • Amplify activities. Offer more family friendly things to do by, finally, creating an area children’s museum. An existing civic club or a new group could lend the needed knowhow and muscle power. Similarly, let’s see broad support for the startup River Common’s initiative to offer a variety of free entertainment. Visit www.rivercommon.org or call 823-2101, ext. 128. • Leave a legacy. Donors to organizations such as the United Way of Wyoming Valley, www.unitedwaywb.org, and The Luzerne Foundation, www.luzfdn.org, can help to patch holes in the area’s social safety net and bestow lifechanging gifts.

OTHER OPINION: CEILING FACE-OFF

Boehner must get a debt deal done

RESIDENT OBAMA on Monday made another strong argument to include revenue measures in any debt-reduction package, but he didn’t win any immediate converts. Republicans apparently have decided it’s more important politically to act as if all taxes are the same. “The American people will not accept – and the House cannot pass – a bill that raises taxes on job creators,” said House Speaker John Boehner, ROhio. By “job creators,” Boehner must mean rich people, because the tax measures Obama proposes don’t target businesses that create jobs. They would raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans, and not even those taxpayers until 2013. Besides, there’s no correlation between rich people’s taxes and job creation. A study by the Center for American Progress shows overall job growth since 1950 was greater when the top marginal tax rate was 70 percent or higher.

The two worst years for job creation during that time were 2008 and 2009, which had the top rate now of 35 percent. If it’s job creation the Republicans want, there are better ways to accomplish that than to continue tax breaks for the wealthy and hope that some trickledown effect will reduce unemployment. U.S. Sens. Bob Casey, D-Pa., and Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., have a bill that offers tax credits for every new job a business creates. For weeks, former Sen. Bill Bradley has been calling for tax credits equaling 20 percent of the wages and benefits of new employees. In his remarks, the president pointed out the political risk he already is taking by agreeing to cut Medicaid and Medicare. “I’m prepared to take on significant heat from my party to get something done,” he said. “And I expect the other side should be willing to do the same thing.” The Philadelphia Inquirer

LETTERS FROM READERS

Complainers are urged to spend money wisely

fter reading the business section of The Times Leader on July 6, I am wondering why so many people are still so discontented with the economy. The article “Mohegan slots revenue up $3M” states that the slots gross revenue was up $3 million this past fiscal year over the one prior. Another article says that the state liquor stores had a record $2 billion in sales, which resulted in $496 million in profits. If people have this kind of disposable income with which to drink and gamble, I do not see how this economy is suffering. Maybe these people should stay home and do something constructive with their money instead of squandering it and moaning about economic conditions. I am tired of hearing people complain about this economy, yet if you pass that casino every weekend, you can’t even get into the parking lot. Also, maybe it is time for the financial institutions that were a big part of the economic downturn to start loosening the purse strings and get some loans to people who want to make some major purchases, such as a home. Someone has money to spend, or else these record profits by casinos and booze stores would not exist. Suzanne Cawley Plains Township

Reader holds out hope for Pa. marriage equality

he passage of marriage equality in New York State is a victory not only for the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender community, but for Americans everywhere who believe in freedom and liberty. While it’s fantastic that Northeastern Pennsylvania gay couples can cross the border and take their vows, it’s important to note that Pennsylvania is one of the many states in which the laws still have to change – and the issues aren’t just about marriage. In Pennsylvania it is still legal to fire LGBT employees simply because they’re gay, as well as to deny LGBT persons hous-

ing. It’s a travesty, and although polling tells us 69 percent of Pennsylvanians support non-discrimination laws that cover sexual orientation, such laws have not yet been passed. Polling also shows that a majority of Pennsylvanians support civil unions, yet Gov. Tom Corbett and the Republican majority in Harrisburg refuse to stand up for what is right, fair and just for everyone. Republican New York state senators showed courage and conviction when they voted in favor of marriage equality, and it’s saddening to know that Pennsylvania Republican legislators are cowardly hiding behind lies and political propaganda as a means of denying people their civil rights. This is the “Land of the Free,” and denying LGBT individuals their equal rights is an un-American act. LGBT Pennsylvanians must stand up and say that enough is enough. Equality must be demanded, and never begged for. We will not give up until all Americans, gay and straight, enjoy their right to marry the person they love. In the end, love always prevails, and the good guys are going to win. One day, Pennsylvania will join our neighbors in New York in providing full marriage equality to our residents. Have hope and never give up. Casey Evans Lehman Township

Writers says new law defies moral principles

ewspaper articles are commenting on the euphoria that Gov. Andrew Cuomo of New York is experiencing with the passing of that state’s homosexual marriage law. In one article, a writer asked Cuomo about his opposition to the Catholic Church’s teachings on same-sex marriage, and he joked, “Throughout my entire political life the tension with the church has come up time and time again.” Gov. Cuomo, a Catholic, always has demonstrated his disregard for the teaching of the church when voting on important moral issues. In fact, any real grassroots effort by the so-called “conservative politicians” in New York to kill the bill apparently was neutralized by Cuomo and his political thugs with promises of money and other perks. This

DOONESBURY

aggressive move by Cuomo and other supporters of the bill was even recognized by the liberal New York Times, which clearly campaigned for the law’s approval. On June 25, under the headline “Behind N.Y. Gay Marriage, an Unlikely Mix of Forces,” Michael Barbaro wrote a long and detailed analysis on how the approval of same-sex marriage was made possible. He explains the role played by millionaire contributors to the Republican Party who supported the law, and the intense behindthe-scenes maneuvering of the political parties that worked together to derail any legitimate opposition to the bill. This explains why with polls showing 59 percent of New Yorkers against “same-sex marriage,” it still managed to pass. When voting on this important moral issue, these Catholic conservative politicians denied the principle of morality that “good must be done, and evil must be avoided.” This became even more evident since the “key vote” that enabled the law’s approval was that of a Catholic senator, Mark Grisanti. Maureen Dowd commented in one of her columns that Gov. Cuomo has had a picture of “St. Thomas More” hanging on the wall of his office. What a contradiction! For those who don’t know St. Thomas More as the “Lord Chancellor of England” during the reign of King Henry the VIII, he publicly defended the teachings of the Catholic Church by firmly opposing the king’s designs in regard to divorce and papal supremacy; for this, the king sentenced him to death. Gov. Cuomo and other so-called Catholic politicians before signing this bill into law would have done well to have made a detailed study on the life of this “saintly statesman” whose picture hangs on the wall of Cuomo’s office. They would have learned by his example how a Catholic public official should act when defending immutable moral principles. Before placing his head on the executioner’s block, St. Thomas More was customarily asked if he had any last words. He supposedly replied: “The King asked me to be brief, so brief I will be. I die the King’s faithful servant, but God’s first.” Walter Camier Weatherly

Why should congressmen worry about Medicare?

Pa. won’t follow N.Y.’s lead, lawmakers say Area legislators aren’t ready to support gay marriage, but they would back civil unions.

By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

Pennsylvania is not expected to mimic New York and enact a same sex marriage law any time soon. State Rep. Mike Carroll, D-Avoca, put it in perspective. “Considering the fact that

Even if gay and lesbian couples get married out of state, Pennsylvania will not recognize the union. So why do it? “It’s about commitment,” Evans said. “We live in a country where we are raised to grow up to find the person you love and get married. I will do it one day myself, but the laws in Pennsylvania have to be changed.” Bill Brown, president of Pride of NEPA, said his organization is transitioning from a social group to being socially active. He said Pride of NEPA has 850 associate members on Facebook and about 40 dues-paying members. “Two months ago, two of our members traveled to Connecticut to get married,” Brown said. “That’s the problem, those outof-state marriages are not recognized in Pennsylvania.

debt could make for potent election-year political imagery. Obama has rejected plans for a short-term agreement, but the White House said McConnell’s proposal was an acknowledgment of the importance of meeting U.S. obligations. The back-and-forth played out in a darkening atmosphere, with the White House saying that federal officials would have to decide what to pay when federal revenue falls short of bills coming due, as is expected in the absence of an increase in borrowing authority from Congress. Obama wants a resolution within 10 days to avoid the beginning of unpredictable reactions by financial markets to the growing uncertainty, but Republicans accuse the White House of trying to stampede them to an agreement. Until now, administration officials have declined to specify which bills they would pay after Aug. 3 with no increase in borrowing authority. But in an interview with “CBS

He said he wants Pride of NEPA to become more active in promoting these issues. Brown said he was recently hospitalized and his boyfriend arrived at the emergency room to find out his condition. “He wasn’t able to get any information about me and he wasn’t allowed back to see me,” Brown said. “All he knew is that I was taken to the hospital in excruciating pain. He sat in the ER waiting room for 12 hours not knowing how I was doing. It made him and I feel less than normal.” Brown said more public discussion of the issue needs to happen. “It’s on my personal agenda, of course,” he said. “We need to get our state legislators to address it,

Evening News,” Obama issued his most explicit warning about government benefits and said for the first time that the elderly might not be the only ones affected. “This is not just a matter of Social Security checks,” Obama said. “These are veterans checks, these are folks on disability and their checks. There are about 70 million checks that go out every month.” Based on cash flow projections, the government will only have enough to cover slightly more than 55 percent of its bills in August. Republicans have said Treasury should prioritize its bills. But besides debt service, the biggest government bills are for Social Security checks, Medicare, weapons for the military, fuel, activeduty military personnel and unemployment benefits. “That would then entail a kind of ‘Sophie’s Choice’ situation where you have to decide what bills you can pay,” said Jay Carney, the president’s spokesman. “So, no, we can’t guarantee, if there were a default, any specific bill will be paid.” Carney said the administration does not want to confront a deci-

He said the “Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender (LGBT) community” must stand up and say that “enough is enough.”John Dawe, 29, president of Dawe Consulting in WilkesBarre, serves as executive director of NEPA Rainbow Alliance (gaynepa.com). He said the organization serves as a virtual community center for the region’s LGBT community. “Pennsylvania needs to recognize same-sex marriage,” Dawe said. “People cross the state line to get married, and then lose it when they return to Pennsylvania. However, in past years there has been tremendous growing

support to legally recognize those unions in Pennsylvania. Other states around us, like New York, have now taken this monumental step forward. It’s encouraging and it’s certainly a motivator that Pennsylvania do the same.” Ted Martin, executive director of Equality Pennsylvania in Harrisburg, said LGBT couples are “extremely aware” of the New York law that goes into effect July 24, and he expects couples to take advantage of the opportunity to get married. Martin, who married his partner in California in 2008, said New York’s law will be “very eyeopening for Pennsylvanians in general.” “They will see people getting married in New York and a month from now, six months from now, 10 years from now, the foundations of society will not have crumbled, and people will get married and just go on living. People will see marriage between same-sex couples is not the end of the world,” he said.

sion to pay “the Chinese government, but not pay Social Security recipients or veterans’ benefits recipients.” Some Republicans said Obama was resorting to scare tactics to win an increase in the debt ceiling. “Telling seniors that they may not receive their Social Security checks is his backdoor way of trying to fulfill his desire to raise the debt limit without any conditions,” said freshman Rep.

Dessoye said he has not had any major complaints about LAG’s performance and he scoffed at the suggestion of a kickback scheme involving his officers and the city administration.

Each time, he would have to attach of list of proposed spending cuts in the same amount, but the cuts could apply to future years and there would be no requirement that they be enacted.

If test results or participation rates improved faster than statistically expected, or if erasures occurred at a higher rate than a state average, a school was flagged. “Flagged or identified schools or students may have earned their scores unfairly. However, they also may have earned them fairly,” the authors wrote. They also noted that the study results “may give strong evidence for a testing irregularity, but they do not provide definitive evidence of such behavior. “ Hazleton Area Superintendent

McConnell said he his proposal was not his “first choice,” but that he had little alternative but to offer a contingency plan. “As long as this president is in the Oval Office, a real solution is unattainable,” McConnell said.

Police: Man tied up and assaulted Cops nab Rudolph Goodwin, who faces five charges. Second suspect flees scene. By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Police said they found a man bound by duct tape around his wrists and across his mouth during a disturbance at an apartment on Irving Place early Tuesday. Brandon Diggs told police he was awakened by two armed men knocking on his door around 1 a.m. Diggs claimed he was tied up with duct tape and assaulted by the two men. Police apprehended one of the men, Rudolph Goodwin, 32, of Logan Street, WilkesBarre, after a chase that ended near the Charles Street Park. Goodwin was arraigned in Wilkes-Barre Central Court on charges of robbery, aggravated assault, burglary, simple assault and unlawful restraint. He was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $30,000 bail. According to the crimi- Goodwin nal complaint: Police responded to a disturbance at an apartment at 32 Irving Place and heard yelling andsmashingglass.Bloodspatterwasfoundonawallanddoor in the back of the building. As officers knocked on the rear door,amankeptyelling,“Come back later.” Officerskickedopenthedoor and discovered Diggs in a hallway with duct tape across his mouth and around his wrists. Diggs told officers two men were escaping the apartment through a window. An officer deployed his Taser on one of the men, identified as Goodwin, the criminal complaint says. The second man ran toward Charles Street Park and climbed over a fence, escaping capture, police said. Diggs told police he did not know his two attackers. Goodwin told police he purchased crack from a man known to him as “B” at the apartment. Goodwin claimed the crack was “beat” and wanted his money back so he returned to the apartment, the criminal complaint says. Diggs was transported to Wilkes-Barre General Hospital where he was treated, police said.

noting that his officers file reports on every vehicle towed and towing is listed on every ticket issued by police. Bob Kadluboski, owner of City Wide Towing and the city’s former contracted tower, again told council of his “warnings” that LAG was charging inflated prices. Kadluboski said he charged $75 per tow when he held the city contract. After the meeting, Robbins said he is considering taking his case to the Luzerne County District Attorney or the state Attorney General’s office for review and he will request a probe. “Rules are broken and records aren’t kept,” Robbins said. “We desperately need an audit and an investigation to follow the money trail.”

flagged 16 times in three grades. Other district schools were flagged 10 or fewer times. Hazleton Area High School was flagged three times, as was Abington Heights High School. Scranton High School was flagged five times. All high school flags occurred in 11th grade, the only grade tested in secondary schools. The Pennsylvania Department of Education was unaware of the report until The Notebook asked for it, department Press Secretary Timothy Eller said, noting it was produced during the administration of former Gov. Ed Rendell. “It’s very frustrating to the secretary (of education) that nothing was done in the past with it,” Eller said, adding the state plans to take a closer look at the report find-

ings. The Philadelphia Inquirer reported the Department of Education plans to reinstate the forensic analysis, beginning with the PSSA tests that were administered this spring. The results of those tests should be made public in August. In the introduction to the 2009 report, the authors note a regular forensic analysis of this type can’t prove cheating, but could help prevent it. It is “important for the forensics analyses to operate as deterrents rather than detectors,” they wrote. Such deterrence is not free. The Notebook pegged the cost of the 2009 analysis at $113,000. The Associated Press contributed to this story.

MOENCHENGLADBACH, Germany — The Americans feel just fine, thank you, not tired a bit. The high they were on after that epic Brazil game? That’s so yesterday.

Plains’ Justin Okun runs out a grounder as Back Mountain first baseman Marc Noyalis waits for the throw during the Wyoming Valley American Legion title game in Rice Township Tuesday.

Back Mountain wins Legion championship By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

RICE TWP. – In his last outing nearly two weeks ago, Back Mountain pitcher Brian Stepniak’s throwing hand was hit with a line drive off the bat of a Plains hitter during a regularseason game. He left that outing immediately and was worried his right hand was broken. Turns out, he was fine. The junior-to-be at Dallas returned to the hill Tuesday against the same Plains team, trying to pitch his team to the Wyoming Valley American Legion League championship.

The hand was in perfect BACK condition and MOUNTAIN so was Stepniak as he tossed a complete-game, PLAINS seven-hit shutout to lead Back Mountain to a 6-0 victory and its first league title since 1991. The win snapped the longest current championship drought of teams that have remained active since then. “I was pretty nervous this being my first game back,” Stepniak said. “But I just remembered how I always throw and just tried to keep it up.”

Both teams advance to the Region 5 Tournament, which begins Saturday. Back Mountain (19-4) faces West Branch champion Jersey Shore at Central Columbia High School in the event’s opening game. Plains (16-8) will play Bloomsburg (9-5), the host team at 4:30 p.m. Saturday also at Central Columbia. “This is a very well-deserving team,” Back Mountain manager Tom Evans said. “They’re a great group of guys and they’re competitors. They play to win and I love this team.” Stepniak was in the midst of pitcher’s duel with Plains’

Dutch Ell as neither team could score through the first three innings. Ell was perfect until he hit a batter with one out in the fourth. He didn’t allow a hit until there were two outs in the inning. That’s when Marc Noyalis (1-for-3, 2 RBI) broke up the shutout as well with a run-scoring single to put Back Mountain ahead 1-0. Ell was taken out of the game after the inning and left only allowing two hits and one run. He struck out the side in the first en route to six strikeouts in four innings. See LEGION, Page 4B

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton’s professional indoor lacrosse team got its first partner in the league when Charlotte announced a team last week. On Thursday, the team will get its name at a 4 p.m. news conference at the Woodlands Inn & Resort. The name should please at least one large demographic in Northeastern Pennsylvania, according to team owner Jim Jennings. “It’s going to be an Irish theme,” Jennings said Wednesday, while keeping mum on the actual name of the team. Jennings said he believes the strong Irish heritage in the region will make the name choice a popular one. “People are going to like it,” Jennings said. He also added that the team’s logo will be “something different.” Fans can almost certainly expect a color scheme for jerseys featuring a prominent amount of green. According to Jennings, the name and logo did very well with a focus group at a local college. The team could also be picking up several more opponents in the coming weeks as the North American Lacrosse League is expected to announce more teams. Hershey, Jacksonville and New York are all rumored to be close to joining the league. The Charlotte franchise has several ties to the region. Owner Graham D’Alvia helped launch the men’s and women’s lacrosse programs at Susquehanna University, and the team’s vice president, Mike Dimson, played college lacrosse at Lehigh.

A test that could blow away another major for Rory SANDWICH, England — The strong wind blowing Tuesday across Royal St. George’s was just another sign that the moonscape masquerading as a golf course on the English coast would offer a vastly different test than the one solved so easily by Rory McIlroy at the U.S. Open. The British Open can be a

OPINION TIM DAHLBERG puzzle of its own, as McIlroy found out last year when he followed an opening 63 with a big fat 80 when the wind started howling at St. Andrews. He was too young, it was too early, and someone else got their name on the claret jug. See DAHLBERG, Page 5B

Billmar Scooter has never been better and this evening she will once again flash her stout form in the big $60,000 Fillies & Mares Open Pace. The 6-year-old daughter of Keystone Raider was devastating last week at the Downs. Leaving from post three, driver Tyler Buter made a brush just past the opening stanza and never looked back, spanking the field in a career-best mile of 1:50.1. The Buter Stable has been hot of late, and tonight couldn’t be a better time to show her heels to the field again and put the team of trainer Amber and Tyler Buter back in the winner’s circle. BEST BET: ZOOMING (9TH) VALUE PLAY: BILLMAR SCOOTER (10TH)

MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL

Warren only Yankee in IL All-Star game By JOSH HORTON For The Times Leader

When all is said and done, four Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankees received the honor of being selected to the International League All Star Game. However, only one Yankee will make the trip to Spring Mobile Ballpark in Salt Lake City. “We’re happy for Warren,” Scranton/Wilkes-Barre Yankee manager Dave Miley said. “Obviously, tip of the hat to the guys that deserved to go, but with injuries and some things like that they are unable to go

play. They have done a nice job.” Adam Warren will be the lone Yankee representing Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre. The Yankee righthander was a late addition to the International League AllStar team. He has been a mainstay at the top of the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre rotation, appearing in more games than any other member of the starting five this season. In 17 starts this season, Warren has compiled a record of 6-3 with an earned run average of 3.20. He is also second on the

team in strikeouts with 67. David Phelps currently leads the team with 74. “It’s definitely an honor to go to the All-Star game and I am really excited,” Warren said. “I wouldn’t say I am satisfied. I pitched pretty well, but there is always room for improvement.” The three Scranton/WilkesBarre players who will not be attending this year’s All-Star game are Kevin Whelan, Jorge Vazquez, and Jesus Montero. All said it was an honor to be named to the team but cited injuries as the reason they will

not be attending the game. Whelan has been consistent this season as the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre closer. He leads the International League in saves with 18. He has appeared in 26 games and has racked up a record of 1-1. He has struck out 32 opposing hitters, while walking just six. He also received a cup of coffee in the big leagues with New York. He is expected to return to the team following the break. “Just to be on that team is an honor,” Whelan said. “The biggest thing for me is I just want

to make sure I’m healthy. If I’m not healthy I can’t help the team win.” Montero ended the first half of the 2011 season on the disabled list. He was forced to sit out multiple games with back stiffness. The Yankee catcher hit .289 with seven homers and 33 RBI in the first half. He also expects to return to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre lineup following the All-Star break. Vazquez also missed many games this season due to a trip to the disabled list. He returned to the Scranton/Wilkes-Barre li-

By MANDA LEE MYERS Associated Press

PHOENIX — Critics of a polarizing immigration law in Arizona protested the legislation Tuesday in triple-digit heat outside Major League Baseball’s All-Star Game in downtown Phoenix, drawing sideways glances from fans who were more interested in getting to the game. Two separate pro-immigrant groups protested outside of Chase Field before the game, with one quietly passing out white ribbons that symbolized peace and unity and the other loudly chanting in bullhorns and marching in circles with signs that read “Boycott hate” and “Stand with us.” SB1070, signed by Gov. Jan Brewer in April, requires all immigrants to obtain or carry immigration registration papers and requires police, while enforcing other laws, to question people’s immigration status if there is a reasonable suspicion they’re in the country illegally. The law is being challenged in federal court. “You can’t just pick up someone off the street and say, ’What’s your name, show me your papers,”’ said Antonio Medrano, an immigrant-rights activist who traveled from San Francisco’s Bay Area to protest the law. “It’s called racism, and they had it in South Africa with apartheid and they had it in Germany with Nazis.” Other protesters yelled into a bullhorn with chants of “You can’t hide, we can see your racist side!” and “Stop injustice!” They were staked outside the main intersection in front of Chase Field to get as many baseball fans as possible to see them. Some of the fans looked at them with curiosity, some with irritation, and others with ambivalence as they made their way to the entrance. Margarito Blancas was with a different group of protesters who passed out white ribbons and sheets of paper with information about the law. Most people refused to take them. He said if his message gets across to just one person, it’s worth it. “They think this is just baseball and baseball has nothing to do with politics,” he said. “But look at the history of baseball with Jackie Robinson and his impact.” Robinson broke baseball’s color barrier in 1947. Blancas said he came to the U.S. from Mexico in 1981 and is a legal resident, but that some members of his family are not here legally. “Back then it was different. It was more welcoming,” he said. “Now I feel less than comfortable just driving around. I have brown skin color, so I could be pulled over for any reason.” A much-smaller group of counter-protesters were across the street, carrying signs in support of Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio and other signs in support of SB1070. “Illegal immigration is what it is,” said Andy Figueroa, who belongs to the group Latino and Legal Immigrant Tea Party Patriots. “It has nothing to do with racism or civil rights. When you travel to another country, you have to have paperwork.”

neup to open the last homestand of the first half, and was expected to compete in Monday’s Home Run Derby. However, he decided to skip the AllStar festivities to make sure he will be healthy to open the second half. Scranton/Wilkes-Barre (4841) finished the first half seven games above .500 and sits in third place in the I.L. North Division, 4.5 games behind the division-leading Lehigh Valley. The Yankees open the second half in Toledo with a four game series beginning Thursday.

The AL put runners on second and third in the ninth, but Brian Wilson, the Giants’ eccentric closer, came in to get the final two outs. Washington’s Tyler Clippard, a former Yankees farmhand, picked up the win even though he faced only one batter, Texas’ Adrian Beltre, and allowed a single. The top of the fourth concluded when Houston leftfielder Hunter Pence threw out Toronto’s Jose Bautista at home. The Mets’ Carlos Beltran started the winning rally with an infield hit, and thus he became the most notable New York player. Even before that, however, Beltran generated discussion. During Fox’s broadcast of the game, Wilson mentioned how much he’d enjoy having Beltran as a teammate. The Giants, starved for offense, are interested in trading for Beltran. "I didn’t know that," Beltran said, when asked about Wilson’s comments. "Right now, I’m playing for the Mets, and we’re playing good baseball." He reiterated the line he has used all season: He’s happy with the Mets, but if the Mets decide to sell off veterans — a distinct possibility — then he’ll consider all of his options. Beltran has a full no-trade clause, so he can control his destiny. Yankees reliever David Robertson made his All-Star Game debut in a most unlikely fashion. As Josh Beckett warmed up to replace starter Jered Weaver in the second, the Red Sox righthander felt something in his left knee, which he hyperextended

in his previous start, and opted not to enter the game, citing precautionary reasons. So Robertson, as an official injury replacement, took as much time as he needed to warm up. He issued a one-out single to his former Yankees teammate Lance Berkman, now with St. Louis, but struck out the Cardinals’ Matt Holliday, and catcher

Alex Avila threw out Berkman trying to steal second for an inning-ending double play. The Yankees’ two starters, Curtis Granderson and Home Run Derby champion Robinson Cano, failed to hit the ball out of the infield in a combined four trips to the plate. Granderson, hitting leadoff, grounded out to first and

grounded out to second. Cano, hitting eighth, hit into a 3-1 play and offered a fifth-inning grounder to first that Cincinnati’s Joey Votto handled by himself. ——— (c) 2011, Newsday.

ed the civil suit the following year. But in the ruling, Caldwell also turned aside Scott’s claims of malicious prosecution and that police violated his civil rights. “The Penn State defendants argue there is no conspiracy claim because plaintiff has presented no evidence that they agreed among themselves and (the woman) to unlawfully prosecute Scott, nor any evidence of any wrongful act. We agree,” Caldwell wrote in his 31-page ruling. The ruling appears to finally bring an end to the nearly-four year drama surrounding Penn State, Scott and his oncepromising football career. He set state scholastic records for most single-season rushing yards (3,853) and touchdowns (53) at Parkland High School in Allentown and was a heralded running back when he ar-

By GENARO C. ARMAS Associated Press

STATE COLLEGE — A federal judge has dismissed former Penn State running back Austin Scott’s civil lawsuit against the university, police and a female acquaintance over a rape charge against him that was later dropped. No evidence supported Scott’s accusation that the woman, the school, police and prosecutors conspired against him, U.S. District Judge William Caldwell in Harrisburg said in Monday’s ruling. Caldwell ruled there was probable cause to arrest Scott in October 2007. Prosecutors withdrew the charges in 2008, and Scott fil-

rived in Happy Valley in 2003. But his collegiate career was hindered by injuries and lesser off-field issues. Scott ran for 302 yards and six touchdowns on 69 carries in five games in 2007 before being suspended by coach Joe Paterno for violating team rules and never played for the Nittany Lions again. The school was pleased with the dismissal, spokeswoman Lisa Powers said Tuesday. University police referred a request for comment to Powers. “We were confident in the actions taken by police, and have maintained throughout that all procedures were followed according to laws, and policies that we have in place,” Powers said. “This is good news.” Centre County prosecutors initially were also named in Scott’s civil suit, but a judge

removed them in 2010 after determining they had immunity. The attorney who filed the suit for Scott in 2008, Allentown-based John Karoly, also did not immediately return a call seeking comment. In a court filing last month, Karoly withdrew from a court appearance on behalf of Scott. Scott through his attorney had claimed his aspirations to play in the NFL were damaged after the rape charge was filed. He signed as a free agent with the Cleveland Browns in May 2008 but was waived five months later. He now plays for the North East Pennsylvania Miners, a semi-professional, minor league football team based in Scranton. A message left Tuesday for Scott through a team official was not immediately returned.

Ex-Texas Tech coach tells his side of firing The Associated Press

LUBBOCK, Texas — Former Texas Tech coach Mike Leach on Tuesday offered up fresh details on what he says was happening behind the scenes around the time he was fired. In excerpts from his book, “Swing Your Sword,” Leach said emails “suggest” there was never a university investigation into allegations he mistreated a player, Adam James, with a concussion but rather “an effort to sell me down the river.” He also claims a public relations firm, Spaeth Communications, was used by the university to “smear” Leach’s name. “They knew the facts weren’t on their side so they used Spaeth to spread misinformation and try to turn public opinion,” an excerpt says. The university fired Leach in

December 2009 amid claims that he mistreated James, son of Craig James, an ESPN analyst. Leach has long denied that, and said he believes an $800,000 bonus he was due was the reason he was fired. Leach sued the school for wrongful termination but a Texas appeals court allowed his trial to go forward for only nonmonetary damages. Leach, who has lived in Key West, Fla., since shortly after his firing and was passed up for the job Maryland early this year, is awaiting word on whether the Texas Supreme Court will review the appellate court’s ruling. If the high court reverses the appeals court and rules that Texas Tech waived sovereign immunity protection by its conduct, Leach’s suit could go forward for monetary damages.

“Dutchy Ell came out and pitched a hell of a game,” Plains manager Don Stark said. “From this experience it shows that we have another quality pitcher to throw in regionals. He’s got to be real proud of the way he threw today.” The newly-crowned WVALL champs broke the game open with a five-spot in the bottom of the sixth. The team sent eight batters to the plate in the frame, but only got one hit and took advantage of four Plains errors to open a 6-0 lead, making it harder for Plains to mount a comeback. “Defensive letdown,” Stark said about the sixth. “We had a couple mental lapses that we’re going to try to shore up before we go down to regionals, but overall we played a good game and Back Mountain played an excellent game.” Plains had opportunities loading the bases with no outs in the top of the first. It also had the bases jammed in the sixth and

cords at the U.S. Open and winning by eight shots. Only in the three weeks he has spent at home has the magnitude started to sink in. “I didn’t realize how much of a fuss it would create or how much of a buzz,” he said. “It’s been nice. I thought it was great for me to win the U.S. Open, win my first major. The support that I’ve had from people back home, from everyone all over the world, has been pretty overwhelming.” It was impossible to miss on Tuesday. It almost felt as though Tiger Woods were at the Open, still on top of his game. There were more media in the room waiting for McIlroy than those who actually listened to Luke Donald, who is No. 1 in the world and coming off a four-shot win in the Scottish Open. They stood against every wall in the room and were three-deep at the doorway. This is the new world of McIlroy. And he says he’s ready for it. “This is what I’ve always wanted to do,” McIlroy said. “I’ve always wanted to be a successful golfer and be one of the best players in the world and to win major championships. If I have to put up with a few things along the way, then I’m fine with that.” McIlroy hasn’t played since he won the U.S. Open, taking time off to catch his breath, go to Wimbledon and a heavyweight fight in Germany, then getting back to work on his game. It won’t be the same test this week. Royal St. George’s is not quite as vicious as it was in 2003 when Ben Curtis was the only player to break par, even though the wind was not up to its typical strength that year. McIlroy did most of his preparation on the links course last week, so he missed the big blow Tuesday that showed just how tough this can be. On the par-3 11th hole, which measures 243 yards, Dustin Johnson knew deep down it would take a driver to reach the green into such a wind, but pride wouldn’t let him. He crushed a 3-

wood and still came up short of the green. Phil Mickelson hit driver, then looked back at Johnson and Rickie Fowler and said, “I don’t know why you guys laid up.” Donald couldn’t reach the fairway on the 564-yard seventh hole, a carry of only about 225 yards. On another hole, he hit 7iron from 119 yards because he didn’t want the ball to get up in the air. The U.S. Open was soft this year because of rain. The British Open is firm, and bouncy as ever at Royal St. George’s. “Today it really tested everything,” Donald said. “I still think the guy that can scrap it around and make pars from off the green, hole some long putts and kind of keep the momentum going, especially when it’s very tough like it was today, then that’s the key to playing well.” McIlroy did everything right at Congressional, which is why so much is expected of him. He still believes, like so many other athletes, that the public’s expectations are not as great as his own. Still, this is a different week, and a very difference major. “I don’t think I’ll be able to play that sort of golf every week I tee it up — I hope I do, but I can’t see it,” he said. “Yeah, expectations are going to be high. I have high expectations myself. I want to go out there and try and win a lot of golf tournaments and win majors and become the best player in the world. All I need to do is focus on my game, and if I can do that, I know my good golf is good enough to win plenty more tournaments.” But there is something special about this kid. It’s not only his simple, fundamentally sound swing, but the way he draws people to him because he looks like he’s having so much fun. Even as his celebrity grows, McIlroy appears to stay grounded. In his final preparation for the British Open, he went to Royal County Down at twilight, carried his own bag and played nine holes with his father tagging along. “The thing about Rory is that he plays golf with a real flair and a real charisma, and I think fans are drawn to that,” Mickelson said.

SANDWICH, England — Lee Westwood believes he has the patience to master a “mentally frustrating” Royal St. George’s course and finally land a first major title. When the British Open was last held at Sandwich in 2003, Westwood teed off ranked No. 266 and shot 9 over to miss the cut. Things couldn’t be more different from eight years ago. With the Englishman No. 2 in the rankings and among the favorites to lift the Claret Jug, a more mature Westwood is confident he can master the notoriously difficult course known for its undulating fairways and potentially wicked wind. “(There are) a couple of fairways out there which you can get bad breaks,” Westwood said. “At some pointduringtheweek,you’regoing

to need patience — it’s going to be tested. But I’ve got plenty of that. “It’s mentally frustrating out there. I think Westwood that’s why people either like or dislike it. I like the golf course ... it makes you think constantly and adapt to the situation.” Tiger Woods’ fall from grace in the past two years has opened the door to the No.1ranking and Westwood has taken full advantage.

him well when he was poised to win his first major title at the U.S. Open. He has led seven of the eight rounds of the two major championships so far this year, and managed to come back from a final round collapse at the Masters to lap the field at Congressional. Like a fighter who gets better after he wins a title, McIlroy believes he will be better now that no one’s asking when he will win his first major. “It has lifted a huge weight off my shoulders,” he said. “Now I can talk about winning my second one after having won the first.” It’s hard to find anyone rooting against McIlroy adding that second major. The unassuming 22-year-old with a mop of curls has a connection with fans that even Woods would envy, and he brings excitement to a sport that has been badly missing it ever since Woods crashed his SUV one fateful Thanksgiving night. “The thing about Rory is that he plays golf with a real flair and a real charisma, and I think fans are drawn to that,” Phil Mickelson said.

“I don’t particularly think it’s an age thing, either. I think so many players play well into their early to mid-40sjustrecentlythatthere’sno point in thinking about it. It dependshowfityoukeepyourselfand how mentally up for it you are. You know, you’ve got to want it still.” Westwood hasn’t finished outside the top 20 in his last nine events on the European Tour, making him confident this could be his year on a links-style course he knows well. “My form is right where I’d like it to be. I’ve been playing well just recently and had a good stretch of results,” Westwood said. “This is a week I look forward to all year round. I try to gear my game up for this week. “The form is pretty good. I’m happy with all aspects of my game.” you’d expect after winning the U.S. Open, watching some tennis courtside at Wimbledon and watching ringside as Wladimir Klitschko beat David Haye in a heavyweight title fight in Germany. He didn’t pick up a club for 10 days but has spent the last 10 days making sure his game is in order for a golf course that will play fast, firm — and hard. On his final night at home, he took his dad out for a late nine holes, the same thing he did before he went to St. Andrews last year and opened with a 63. It was the kind of round the two would play together while McIlroy was growing up. “It was just me and him on the golf course,” McIlroy said. “It sort of brought back a lot of memories, playing with my dad on long summer nights.” Refreshed and recharged, McIlroy is ready to make some new memories. He’s not afraid of the spotlight, and he seems to embrace the pressure. Soon we’ll find out just how big a star he will be. Tim Dahlberg is a national sports columnist for The Associated Press.

Big Jim is favored in Meadowlands Pace EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Big Jim, last season’s champion 2-year-old pacer in the U.S. and Canada, was made the 2-1 favorite for the $1 million Meadowlands Pace on Saturday night. Big Jim will start from post No. 2 with Phil Hudon at the lines. He won the fastest of the two Pace eliminations last week in 1:50. Custard The Dragon, the 4-1 second choice from post No. 3, took the other elimination in 1:50 2/5. The two elimination winners earned the right to pick their posts. The other eight spots in the 10-horse field were randomly selected for the mile race. Big Jim won the two-horse draw to determine the first overall pick. Owner Jim Carr took the second slot, saying it was Hudon’s preferred post. A winner of 9 of 16 races and more than $1.2 million, Big Jim is a perfect 3 for 3 at the Meadowlands. “I don’t know if he loves this one more than any other track because I can’t speak for him,” Carr said. “He’s had the lead in all three races here from the opening quarter on, and hasn’t relinquished it. He’s a competitive horse and he knows what racing’s all about.” Montrell Teague, the driver of Custard The Dragon, selected post No. 3, the same starting point as in last week’s eliminations. Teague, 20, will become the youngest driver in Pace history. He will steer the colt for his father George Teague, Jr. who also trains two other horses in the field: Feel Like A Fool, 12-1 from post No. 4 and Wink N Atcha, 15-1 from post No. 5. FOOTBALL

Irvin tells magazine his brother was gay DALLAS — Hall of Fame receiver Michael Irvin tells a magazine that his womanizing may stem from seeing an older brother whom he idolized dressed as a woman and learning the brother was gay. In the latest issue of Out magazine, Irvin says he feared Vaughn Irvin’s sexual orientation would become publicized and would shame the family. He also feared that he was gay, adding that his fast living may have been to accentuate his heterosexuality. Irvin and Vaughn remained close until Vaughn’s death in 2006.

Tiger Woods gets bio treatment in comic PHILADELPHIA — Golfer Tiger Woods is the latest celebrity and athlete to get his own unauthorized biography in a comic book. Publisher Bluewater Productions Inc. said Tuesday that it will release its one-shot issue “Fame: Tiger Woods” on Wednesday in book stores, comic book shops and online, as it expands its already burgeoning line of biography comics that have profiled people from politics to music to film. Those profiled so far have included first lady Michelle Obama, singer Lady Gaga, Former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg. Written by C.W. Cooke and illustrated by Marcelo Salaza, the 32-page issue is part of the Vancouver, Wash.-based company’s look at celebrity culture and how those in it rise from obscurity to notoriety and deal with life in the public eye. “Tiger Woods is, in most respects, the most famous golfer of all time. He may have had some recent troubles, but his life is one filled with very interesting tidbits,” said Jason Schultz, Bluewater’s executive vice president. Woods, 35, was the former world No. 1, but recently tumbled to No. 17, his lowest spot in 14 years. -- The Associated Press

Former Major League Baseball pitcher Roger Clemens leaves federal court Tuesday in Washington after a day of his trial on charges of lying to Congress in 2008.

Clemens’ jury group not big baseball fans The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — An overwhelmingly female jury with little interest in baseball will decide whether former pitching star Roger Clemens lied to Congress when he said he never used performance-enhancing drugs. The jurors who took their seats Tuesday include a woman whose cousin, former outfielder Al Bumbry, was a coach for the Boston Red Sox when Clemens played for the team. Another woman on the jury said she believes Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Michael Vick was “done wrong” in his criminal conviction in connection with dogfighting. The jury took shape after four days of questioning by U.S. District Judge Reggie Walton and lawyers for both sides. Clemens’ defense team said the seventime Cy Young Award winner will begin his defense by questioning the propriety of lawmakers’ investigation into whether Clemens used performance-enhancing drugs. Opening arguments are scheduled for today. Both sides seemed to want to start with a blank slate and sought jurors who don’t have many preconceived notions about the case or Clemens himself. When the Eagles fan said during questioning that she didn’t know a thing about baseball, Clemens’ attorney Rusty Hardin responded, “That’s a plus.”

The jury includes a 22-yearold aspiring fashion designer who works two part-time jobs and cares for her young daughter and an older woman who said her three-times-a-week dialysis treatments will not keep her from attending the trial. Another juror is a yoga teacher and lawyer who said she finds U.S. drug laws “a bit heavy-handed.” The two sides threw out the maximum number of 20 people before the jury of 10 women and two men along with four alternates were seated. The jurors themselves were not told who among them are alternates but they were told to avoid news and sports programs. To keep the panel from encountering the dozens of journalists at the courthouse, the judge told them they will meet off site each daily, be bused into a back entrance and use nonpublic corridors. They will be served breakfast and lunch in what was once a judge’s chambers so they don’t have to use the cafeteria where reporters, attorneys and Clemens himself take their meals. Clemens sat and watched final jury selection but didn’t weigh in and left it to his lawyers to pick who will decide his fate. His wife, Debbie, was back home in Houston with their sons after being in court last week, Hardin said. She will be a witness in her husband’s defense and will not be allowed to attend the trial un-

til after she testifies, a fact Hardin explained to jurors who might otherwise wonder where she was. Clemens’ attorney Michael Attanasio revealed Tuesday that Clemens plans to begin his defense by questioning if lawmakers’ investigation into whether he used performance-enhancing drugs was proper. Attanasio said the hearing held by the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee in February 2008 had nothing to do with Congress’ responsibility for legislation. He said the hearing was only concerned with airing a “credibility contest” between Clemens and his longtime trainer, Brian McNamee, who said he injected the pitcher with steroids and human growth hormone. Clemens denied those allegations and has been charged with perjury, false statements and obstruction of Congress. The obstruction count charges Clemens with making 15 false or misleading statements to the committee, including his repeated denials he didn’t take performance-enhancing drugs during his 24-season career and even whether he attended a 1998 pool party at Toronto Blue Jays teammate Jose Canseco’s home in Miami. “We’re going to have a minitrial on whether Roger Clemens went swimming at Mr. Canseco’s house,” Attanasio said.

NFL LABOR

Sides have resolved some issues erything up when face-to-face ached, it needs to be ratified by Rookie wage scale and free talks resume today — an unlike- players and owners, a potentially agency remain among time-consuming process. ly scenario. sticking points to agreement. There are a few court cases Yet without a collective barBy BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer

NEW YORK — Think back four months to that disappointing day in March when the NFL lockout began. The general opinion was the owners and players would reach a new labor agreement long before training camps opened. They had plenty of time and about 9 billion reasons to get it done. Well, some training camps open at the end of next week, and the two sides have not yet gotten it done. Yes, they are closer than ever, with several key issues — particularly how to split more than $9 billion in revenues — just about settled. But there is serious doubt that a disruption to the preseason can be avoided. While the regular season still appears safe, the situation isn’t as simple as shaking hands and going back to business as usual, even assuming owners and players patched ev-

gaining agreement in place soon, many teams will need to delay training camp. The New York Giants and Jets and Baltimore Ravens already have canceled out-of-town camps and will do all their preseason work at their home facilities, at a significant cost to the communities where they normally would have gone. The Pro Football Hall of Fame inductions will go on as scheduled on Aug. 6. But the game the following day between the St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears is in jeopardy, which certainly would put a damper on the festivities. And with owners and players haggling over the rookie wage scale, guidelines for free agency and how benefits for retired players will be funded, the next few days are critical. Should the differences remain strong and prevent a timely deal, the first full weekend of preseason games could be canceled — at a cost upward of $60 million. Even when an agreement is re-

that must be resolved, including the antitrust lawsuit brought against the league by Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees and seven other players. There’s even a chance the players could still pursue a lockout injunction for rookies and free agents after an appeals court ruled last week that the work stoppage could continue. It might seem odd that the two sides are so close on sharing revenues, the most contentious issue back in March, yet are being held up by other topics. But the owners have been seeking more right-of-first-refusal tags for unrestricted free agents, and they want a rookie salary system to extend about halfway into the first round of the draft. They also seek longer rookie contracts for first-rounders. The players are adamant about getting back to free agency rules similar to 2009, when a four-year veteran whose contract expired was unrestricted. That changed to six years in 2010 because there was no salary cap.

FRANKFURT, Germany — Only hours before their quarterfinal match of the World Cup, captain Homare Sawa and the rest of the Japanese players were transfixed by slides of the devastation heaped on their country from the earthquake and tsunami. That evening they went out and upset mighty Germany, the two-time defending champions playing at home. The Japanese players reached their first World Cup semifinal with a fighting spirit that belied their size in the face of the towering hosts. “They touched us deep in our souls,” star Aya Miyama said of the pictures. Sawa added: “As a player we cannot do very much for Japan, but at least we can try and play as hard as we can.” Coach Norio Sasaki’s effort worked. The session gave the players “more stability and heart” for the match. After the breakthrough victory on Saturday, there is no more need for such inspiration ahead of the semifinal against Sweden on Wednesday. In sharp contrast, Sweden’s march through the tournament has been as carefree as the twirling, joyous team dance that accompanies every victory. “We cannot play for the same reasons, obviously, as them,” Sweden captain Caroline Seger said. That 1-0 victory over Germany, when Sawa set up Karina Maruyama for the decider deep in extra time, silenced the sellout crowd in Germany but brought joy back home and front-page headlines across the nation. The banner headline that endears them to all in Germany reads: “To our friends around the world — Thank you for your support.” The players form a solemn postgame procession and carry it around the stadium after

with more than a touch of swagger. “We have what it takes,” Wambach said. “It’s just a matter of putting it all together.” The biggest uncertainty for the Americans isn’t their fitness, it’s their backline. Rachel Buehler has started all but one game the last two years, and her bruising style of defense — she isn’t called the “Buehldozer” for nothing — has been vital. But she’s suspended for the semifinal after getting a red card for taking down Marta in the box in the 65th minute Sunday. While U.S. coach Pia Sundhage wouldn’t say who will play in Buehler’s place, Becky Sauerbrunn was working with the starters during training Tuesday. “I’ve been fortunate enough to play with her (with the WPS’ magicJack) so we’re very connected that way,” said Christie Rampone, the U.S. captain and its other central defender. “Becky and I feel confident together. We’ll watch some film on France today, see what little tactics they have, what little tendencies they have with their forwards, communicate with each other and we’ll be fine.” They will have to be because, much like Brazil, France has creativity and flair. Playmaker Louisa Necib, she of the silken touch and deft passes, has been likened to Zinedine Zidane, the highest compliment a French player can get. Her control of the midfield is masterful, the driving force behind France’s quick, fluid offense. Les Bleues often appear seamless — no surprise considering 10 of the 21 players are teammates at Olympique Lyonnais, which won this year’s women’s Champions League final. “For us, it’s very important to

each win. It refers to Japan vs. the global Sweden outpouring 2:45 p.m. of aid in the ESPN wake of the March 11 disaster that left nearly 23,000 dead or missing and caused a crisis at the Fukushima nuclear plant. The memory of the tragedy has been a constant theme running through the team at the three-week tournament. “The players know in their heart what has been going on,” Sasaki said. “The players were deeply impressed and the feeling connected to their heart.” In Japan, the team’s rise at the World Cup and its stunning upset of Germany has brought relief from the daily pain. The country has been battered by dozens of strong aftershocks since the strongest quake in Japanese history. Their success on the global stage has turned into a bigger hit than baseball or sumo wrestling, and the media dominance of a woman’s sport is a huge surprise in itself. The players also get something in return, Sasaki said. Seeing how the Japanese prevail despite such adversity is a mental boost. “The images of these people gave us strength,” Sasaki said after Japan scored against a tiring opponent. The team is called “Nadeshiko” in reference to an indigenous flower and the beauty of Japanese women’s spirit. On the field, Nadeshiko translates into crisp, precise passing and lightning quick moves that have dumbfounded bigger and physically stronger opponents, like the Germans. In that sense, the Swedes have been forewarned. They already had a taste of what’s to come with a 1-1 draw against Japan in a pre-World Cup exhibition.

be patient,” Sundhage said. “We need to pick up the rhythm and dictate the tempo, and we need the midfield to get more involved. I don’t want to make it a stretch game. Or make it a (physical) fight.” But France has struggled against bigger, more physical teams in the past, and they don’t come much stronger than the Americans. “It’s true we’ve had one additional day” of rest, French coach Bruno Bini said. “I think it’s quite fair because the American team is in better shape.” While the Americans have their quickest turnaround of the tournament, getting just two days rest between games, France hasn’t played since Saturday. But Les Bleues had an emotional doozy, too, beating England 4-3 on penalties after scoring in the 88th minute to tie it 1-1. “It’s very easy after a victory to be in shape again, especially when you’ve already seen yourself packing to go home,” Bini said. “After that, it is very easy to get highly motivated for this match.” Unlike the Americans, who have reached the semifinals at each of the six World Cups, this is the first trip for Les Bleues. And they have never beaten the Americans, going 0-11-1 in their previous meetings. The U.S. has scored 38 goals in the 12 games to just eight for France. Of course, Mexico had never beaten the Americans, either, and look what happened in regional qualifying. But the “bumpy road,” as Sundhage likes to call it, has made the Americans stronger, their success even sweeter. Their grit and determination is one of the reasons they’ve become such a huge hit back home, with Hollywood celebrities, professional athletes and folks who’ve never seen a soccer game before all rallying behind them.

Andre Greipel, rear, pushes his wheel over the finish line ahead of Mark Cavendish to win the 10th stage of the Tour de France Tuesday.

German out sprints Cavendish By JEROME PUGMIRE AP Sports Writer

CARMAUX, France — After all the feuding and hard words, Andre Greipel finally got what he wanted and it had nothing to do with talk: a winning ride in the Tour de France. The German sprinter beat Mark Cavendish — his former teammate and sometimes adversary — by the length of a wheel Tuesdaytocapturethe10thstage of a three-week race that is soon to leave the flatlands for the perilous climbs of the Pyrenees. Thomas Voeckler of France kept the yellow jersey after nestling safely in the main pack for mostoftheday.Defendingchampion Alberto Contador did much the same, and the Spaniard had even more reason to be careful after hurting his right knee during crashes in the fifth and ninth stages. “Atthebeginningofthestage,I wasn’t sure what to think,” said Contador, a three-time champion. “But as the stage progressed my knee was feeling less

sore.” Contador, the best climber in the world, trails main rivals Cadel Evans of Australia and Andy Schleck of Luxembourg by 1:41 and 1:30 entering Wednesday’s flat run. Tuesday’s 98-mile trip from Aurillac to Carmaux ended with Cavendish applying brutal acceleration and seemingly headed toward his third stage victory in this Tour. Instead, Greipel got on hiswheelandsurgedaheadinthe last 20 yards, a winning leg in cycling’s showpiece race at last secure. Greipel and Cavendish clashed last year while on the HTC-Highroad team. Greipel, who now rides for Omega Pharma-Lotto team, was in a conciliatory mood. “I have a lot of respect for Cavendish — he was won 17 stages of the Tour de France. Now I have one,” Greipel said. “He was not always really friendly with his comments (about) me. This is not my level. I just try to show on the bike what I am able to do. I al-

ways said to my teammates that we need to believe in our race and do our own things.” Jose Joaquin Rojas of Spain was third. The top three completed the stage in 3 hours, 31 minutes, 21 seconds. Cavendish is one of the most outspoken cyclists, his comments sometimes scathing. But after beating Greipel to win last Friday’s seventh stage in Chateauroux — in much the same way Greipel beat him Tuesday with a late sprint — the two cleared the air. “We had a chat after the Chateauroux stage and he said ’I have a big respect for your sprint”’ Greipel said. “I think he has shown he is one of the fastest sprinters on earth.” Cavendish repaid the compliment, giving credit where it was due. “Now I’m happy for him. He’s come to the Tour de France and he’s won,” Cavendish said. “I feel I made a mistake, but Greipel beat me so there’s not an excuse I can say.”

MINNEAPOLIS — The Minnesota Timberwolves fired Kurt Rambis on Tuesday, ending more than three months of uncertainty and awkwardness surrounding the head coach of the worst team in the NBA last season. Rambis was 32-132 in his brief stay in Minnesota, including 1765 this past season. “I want to thank Kurt for his contributions to our franchise and wish him the best in his future endeavors,” Wolves president of basketball operations David Kahn said in a statement issued by the team. “His arrival signaled we were serious about building a championship-contending ballclub over the course of time. We have accumulated a solid nucleus of young talent with a bright future during the last two years. I am hopeful Kurt receives his share of the credit for helping develop that talent and his contributions are not forgotten as we become a better basketball team.” Kahn hired Rambis in 2009 to turn around one of the league’s struggling franchises. But the Wolves won just two more games this year than they did in his first season, and Kahn felt compelled to cut ties with the first coach he

should be a bright one, and I am thankful for the chance I had, to play a part in shaping that future.” The Timberwolves tied their franchise low with 15 victories in 2009-10, but both Kahn and Rambis said after their first season in charge that they were focused more on positioning the franchise to be competitive financially than they were about being competitive on the court. They were successful on that end, clearing massive cap space and acquiring first-round draft picks in hopes that they would capitalize on those assets to build a strong foundation. Rambis watched Kahn turn over the roster substantially for the second straight offseason to set up this year, making the Timberwolves much more athletic, but also much younger and less experienced. The pups struggled all season to mesh on the court and grasp Rambis’ complex schemes. Kevin Love blossomed into an All-Star and Michael Beasley and Darko Milicic also showed flashes of the potential that made them top draft picks. But the Wolves were making the same mistakes — too many turnovers, poor perimeter defense, inconsistent ball movement.

hand-picked to help him rebuild the Wolves. Rambis asked for a fouryear contract to leave his prime Rambis job as Phil Jackson’s top assistant with the Lakers. That means owner Glen Taylor will be on the hook for the final two years and $4 million of that deal while he and Kahn look for a new coach to work with the youngest team in the NBA. The move could prove even more costly if the lockout wipes games off the schedule next season. “I’m grateful for the opportunity that Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor has given me,” Rambis said in a statement given to The Associated Press. “During my years working with coaches Jackson, (Pat) Riley and (Cotton) Fitzsimmons, I learned all about the ups and downs of this sport. And today is one of the down days. “But I’m confident that my work — and the work of my staff — with our many young players over the last two years will begin to pay off for Mr. Taylor and Timberwolves fans.

Yum Brands earnings When Yum Brands reports its second-quarter earnings, investors will be paying particular attention to results at Taco Bell. The fast-food chain makes up about 60 percent of Yum’s profits in the U.S. But Taco Bell sales were flat in the first quarter after a lawsuit questioned the beef content of the filling in the chain's tacos and burritos. The lawsuit was dropped in April, but analysts worry that it still hurt sales in the latest quarter.

Campbell CEO touts new products New boss hopes to boost brand with more simple make-at-home meals.

B R I E F

By GEOFF MULVIHILL Associated Press

CAMDEN, N.J. — The Campbell Soup Co. said Tuesday that next year it plans to focus on bolstering its soups and other products to reinvigorate the brand and attract a new generation of buyers – a move that could mean higher prices for consumers. Denise Morrison, who takes over as CEO on Aug. 1 when Douglas Conant steps down after more than a decade, outlined the new approach during a meeting with analysts. She said the company, which is

known for its red and white cans, wants to build up U.S. sales to Hispanic consumers and millennials, the generation born after 1979. She said Campbell’s main competiMorrison tion isn’t other soup makers, but is a growing range of other simple make-at-home meals. “These consumers have no intrinsic barrier to soup as a food,” Morrison said in a talk in which she acknowledged some company missteps in recent years. “They love soup. But many … don’t connect with our soup products.” Morrison said Campbell will focus less on pushing the volume of sales of its

condensed soups — something that’s been a struggle in the past two years. In the first nine months of the company’s current fiscal year, U.S. soup sales are down 5 percent. Instead the company plans to launch high-end soups, among other changes that include broadening its range of food choices. The company is rolling out 27 new soups in the coming year and changing the recipes for 46. The company concedes that it could sell a lower volume of soup in the coming year because of the strategy. Among the changes, Campbell plans to bring back some higher-sodium soups after several years of working to reduce sodium, sometimes at the expense of taste — at least in the view of

some of the most frequent buyers. Additionally, Campbell, which already has expanded its V8 juice line, launching energy drinks and smoothies in some markets, plans to broaden those offerings. It will also roll out Pepperidge Farm Goldfish-shaped crustless bread next week in an effort to capitalize on its high-performing crackers. In another shift, Campbell plans to grow internationally by buying and partnering with existing companies, particularly in Asia and Latin America. That means not trying to start up in a new country from scratch, as it did in 2007 in China and Russia. The company announced two weeks ago that it was leaving the Russian market, but staying in China — plans it reaffirmed Tuesday.

Corn supplies are projected to be higher than expected this fall. A bigger crop would ease concerns of a grain shortage and could slow food inflation later this year. The U.S. Agriculture Department says 880 million bushels of corn will be left over when the harvest begins. That’s an increase from the previous estimate of 730 million acres. Farmers planted the second-biggest corn crop this year since World War II.

Sanrio looking to find Hello Kitty a friend By NAOKO FUJIMURA and EMI URABE Bloomberg News

TOKYO – Snrio Co., the Japanese Hello Kitty brand licenser, aims to spend as much as $377 million to buy rights to a character for the first time to cut its reliance on the white cat with a red bow and no mouth. “We want to diversify our character portfolio instead of spending time to boost recognition of our existing characters in overseas markets,” Managing Director Susumu Emori, 62, said. He declined to say whether the company is in talks with any candidates. Sanrio, which ended a decade-long sales slump in 2010, relies on Hello Kitty goods for 80 percent of overseas licensing revenue. Character-goods deals with

Deals with crystal maker Swarovski and other companies, including Wal-Mart Stores, helped Hello Kitty character brand owner Sanrio more than double operating profit since 2009.

Wal-Mart, Inditex’s Zara brand and Austrian luxury crystal maker Swarovski helped Sanrio more than double operating profit since 2009 and amass $265 million in cash, the most in a decade.

“Sanrio depends on Hello Kitty too much, so it’d be good to add a major character,” said Takashi Oka, a Tokyo-based analyst at TIW Inc. The company needs the rights to a character that’s al-

ready well established as a brand, he said. Rival Tomy Co., the Japanese maker of Transformer and Pokemon toys, bought RC2 Corp., the maker of Thomas the Tank Engine products, in April for $640 million. Iconix Brand Group Inc., which owns the Candie’s and London Fog fashion brands, and the family of cartoonist Charles Schulz paid $175 million last year for the rights to Charlie Brown and Snoopy. Sanrio’s search for an already established character compatible with Hello Kitty may take some time, Oka of TIW said. Sanrio, founded by 83-yearold President Shintaro Tsuji in 1960, h0as yet to use a character that wasn’t developed inside the company, spokesman Hideo Yamaguchi said.

BRUSSELS — The debt crisis shook Europe’s core on Tuesday as market fears grew over the stability of Spain and Italy, forcing a rethink of the currency union’s strategy to restore trust in its future. Markets took a nosedive on worries that the eurozone’s third and fourth biggest economies — both too expensive to save with Europe’s rescue funds — may become the crisis’ next victims. On the one hand, investors are concerned by the EU’s determination to get banks to share the burden of bailouts, even at the cost of triggering a Greek default. On the other, they see in EU disagreements over giving Greece more aid the ominous signs of a drop in commitment to the currency union. The contagion “could mark the beginning of the end for the single currency union in its current form,” Jonathan Loynes, economist at Capital Economics. As so often before, the eurozone finance ministers were pushed into action only when the markets gave them no choice. Italy’s government sped up approval of its austerity plan and the EU opened the door for a complete overhaul of the region’s bailout fund, which has so far focused on handing out rescue loans to countries on the brink of collapse in return for high interest rates and painful austerity measures. “We said we are ready to test, whether, as part of the private sector involvement, an expansion of the toolkit is necessary and appropriate — such as prolonging (loan) maturities and lowering interest rates,” said German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble. “Everything can help to improve debt sustainability and defend the euro as a whole.” Calm will return to markets only if “all the countries of the eurozone assume their responsibility, in particular the most powerful countries,” Spanish Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero told reporters in Madrid.

That’s the lesson from the second quarter for stock mutual fund investors. On April 1, the economic recovery appeared to be on track. A month later, investors began seeing reports that showed a weakening economy. Stock funds ended the April-June period down an average 0.4 percent, according to fund tracker Lipper. That matched the drop in the S&P 500. Some of Lipper’s findings when it analyzed how stock funds did during the second quarter: FIRST-QUARTER WINNERS TAKE A HIT Some of the first quarter's top funds fell to the back of the pack. Funds that specialize in oil and mining stocks lost an average 5.6 percent after rising 14 percent in the first quarter. Those stocks tend to move with the economy. Their profits are linked to demand for commodities. DEFENSIVE FUNDS WIN Defensive funds invest in stocks that do well in a falling market. They were some of the second quarter’s best performers. For example, funds that invest in U.S. health care and biotech stocks rose an average 6.7 percent. REAL ESTATE REBOUNDS Funds that invest in real estate investment trusts rose 3.5 percent on average. REIT funds have done well because their performance is tied to commercial real estate, which is doing better than the residential market. BIG BEATS SMALL Funds that invest in large companies lost an average 0.2 percent. Funds that focus on small companies lost an average 1.2 percent. Lipper analyst Tom Roseen predicts second-quarter earnings will be strong and lift stocks. He also believes the economy will soon return to a higher growth rate. Still, stocks may remain volatile — Greece still has debt problems and Congress must raise the government's borrowing limit by Aug. 2 to stop the U.S. from defaulting on its debt.

Good morning! Expect a mix of clouds and sun today. A light pop-up shower or two could be around the area with the arrival of a cold front. However, the good news is temperatures will be almost 10 degrees lower today than what we've seen the past few days! A cooler and less humid night is also in store for tonight, which presents us with great sleeping weather. The cooler, dry air behind the cold front will stick around for two more days, making it feel nice Thursday and Friday. Don't get too used to the comfortable humidity, because it'll be on the increase into the weekend. - Kurt Aaron

hen it comes to how their homemade shagbark hickory syrup tastes, Tom and Judy Radzwich of Hazle Township have heard it all. “It’s been called sweet, not as sweet as maple, smooth, smoky, like camping, nutty, flowery,” Judy said. “I always look forward to what the customer is going to say they interpret the taste as.” Tom and Judy are in the second year of production of Razz’s Shagbark Hickory Syrup, which they make in Judy’s mother’s kitchen, an area that has been inspected and approved by the Pennsylvania Depart-

ment of Agriculture. To their knowledge, they are now one of three producers of the syrup in the nation, next to makers in Indiana and Connecticut. The rarity of the syrup is what piqued Tom’s interest. “My wife will tell you that I like challenges,” Tom said, “so when I read an article where a guy said he

Pork tenderloin packed with taste without all the fat

This week’s flavor-packed dish comes from Geisinger Health System. The tender pork medallions with rich onion sauce are a mouth-watering meal that is low in fat and low in carbohydrates, with fewer than five grams of total carbs per serving. ••• TENDER PORK MEDALLIONS WITH RICH ONION SAUCE Servings: 4 Total serving size: 2 slices Ingredients: 1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 8 slices, pounded to 1/8inch thickness

1 teaspoon salt-free grilling seasoning blend 3 teaspoons canola oil, divided 1 cup thinly sliced onions 2 medium garlic cloves, minced 3/4 teaspoon Dijon mustard 2 teaspoons white wholewheat flour (King Arthur brand is available locally) 1/2 cup water 2 teaspoons low-sodium beef bouillon granules ••• Preparation Sprinkle both sides of the pork with seasoning blend. Heat 1 teaspoon canola oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and tilt

skillet to coat bottom. Add half of pork slices and cook 2 minutes, then turn and cook 1 minute or until juices run clear. Set aside on a plate. Repeat with 1 teaspoon canola oil and remaining pork and place on the plate. Heat remaining 1 teaspoon canola oil, tilt skillet to coat, and add onions. Reduce heat to medium and cook for 3 minutes or until onions are translucent. Stir in garlic. Remove skillet from heat and stir in remaining ingredients until well blended. Return to heat and add pork and any accumulated juices. Turn pieces over several times to coat with onion

mixture, reduce to mediumlow heat, cover tightly, and simmer 10 minutes or until pork is very tender and juices run clear. Flavorful tips: To thinly pound pork, place an 18-inch sheet of plastic wrap on the counter and lay pork on top. Top with a sheet of plastic wrap. Use a meat pounder, mallet or the side of a can to pound the pork to 1/8 inch or more. Thinness is the key to tenderness. Pairs nicely with portioncontrolled mashed potatoes and a fresh garden vegetable such as zucchini, broccoli, carrots, cucumber salad and fresh green salad.

Grace Young, author of “StirFrying to the Sky’s Edge,” says this Chinese technique, which involves cooking food quickly over high heat in small amounts of oil, is intrinsically healthy because it calls for little meat and fat but lots of vegetables. First, she says, get a good wok or large skillet that conducts heat well. Be sure to heat the pan first, then add the oil, then the food. Adding oil to a cold wok or frying pan and then heating it will cause foods to stick to the pan. Choose an oil with a high smoke point, such as peanut, grapeseed or canola. These help quickly sear the foods and won’t break down over high heat. Finally, Young cautions against overcrowding, which will cause meat and vegetables to steam or braise rather than caramelize and cook quickly. Try Young’s recipe for stir-fried crystal shrimp: •••

Continued from Page 1C

The production of shagbark hickory syrup differs from that of maple syrup in that it’s an external process and trees are not tapped. Rather, the loose outer bark of a shagbark hickory tree, called shags, are collected and used as the base of the syrup. Shagbark trees are tough to find, but, Tom said, once you know what one looks like it’s easy to spot because of its silhouette. “Most bark is tight to the tree, and you can run your hand up and down it,” Tom said, “but this bark flares down and out, off the trunk of the tree.” The process doesn’t harm the tree in any way. Shags hit the ground as new bark is formed and can be collected. Shags also can be peeled off the tree without damaging it. Tom uses a homemade cleaning device, a barrel lined with brushes, to scrub and rinse the bark three times. It’s then dropped into pots of water and cooked down, leaving hickory extract. “The extract itself isn’t sweet, so we add a little bit of natural sugar,” Tom said. The Radzwichs monitor the density of

the syrup with a hydrometer. “Once it gets to that point, where it’s boiling and nearly ready, it could go from boiling to burning in the matter of a minute,” Tom said. “There’s no real time frames involved; you just have to keep an eye on it.” Once it’s done cooking on the stove, it runs through several filters and is then bottled. “It takes about five pounds of bark to make what we consider a batch of syrup, which is two and a half gallons,” Tom said. The process takes eight to nine hours. The taste of Razz’s Shagbark Hickory Syrup, which is a Pennsylvania Preferred product, is lighter than maple and proves very versatile. “We encourage people to try it on everything,” Judy said. “It’s not just for breakfast. It pulls out flavors in meat. You

can put it on ice cream, in tea, oatmeal, rice pudding, yogurt, salmon, sweet potatoes, mushroom, spinach.” “At almost every show a customer tells us what new food they’ve tried it on.” Meeting new customers is the best part of the business for the Radzwichs. “Everyone is very supportive, which is great for a product that isn’t well-known and many are skeptical about,” Judy said. Customers also help out with the supply end of the business. “Many people are excited to tell us they have the trees in their yard,” Tom said. “A lot of them tell us we can collect the

bark, so in exchange we give them syrup for their help.” The syrup is sold in select places, locally at O’Hara Orchards in Mountain Top and the Hazleton Farmers Market, as well as at the various festivals the Radzwichs attend. The couple are more than happy to hand-deliver syrup to locals. The syrup is sold in glass and plastic bottles ranging from 3.4 ounces to a gallon. The Radzwichs just received the nutritional information and a barcode for the product, gearing it up for bigger sales venues. But, before that, Judy would like to nail down a larger operating area.

Tom Radzwich uses a hydrometer to make sure the shagbark hickory syrup is heated to the right consistency.

“Our garage is the next step,” she said. “We’re going to convert it so that we can make the syrup in our own backyard.” ••• First-time purchasers of Razz’s Shagbark Hickory Syrup might not be sure what to do with it (besides pile it on pancakes and waffles), so the Radzwichs provide a booklet of recipes with each purchase. This lemon buttered chicken, originally taken from The Gourmet Toolbox Recipe Collection

4 boneless skinless chicken breasts 3 tablespoons flour 3 tablespoons butter 1 tablespoon water 3 tablespoons Shagbark hickory syrup Juice of one fresh lemon 1 1/2 teaspoons chicken bouillon Chopped parsley Lemon slices TO PREPARE: Pound chicken lightly to flatten. Coat with flour and shake to remove excess. In large frying pan, melt butter. Add chicken breasts and sauté until golden brown on both sides. Combine water, syrup, lemon juice and chicken bouillon in small bowl and stir until dissolved. Pour over chicken in pan and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat, cover and simmer five minutes or until chicken is no longer pink in center. Remove chicken from pan. Keep warm. Cook and stir juices left in pan over high heat until thickened and syrupy, 1-2 minutes. Pour glaze over chicken, sprinkle with parsley and garnish with lemon slices.

Pastor without compassion needs a come-to-Jesus talk with congregation Dear Abby: We have a problem — our pastor. He uses the pulpit to criticize, put people down and offers no compassion. The problem is, if you say anything to him, you can bet the next sermon will be about what you discussed. How can I talk to him without making him angry? — All Fire and Brimstone Dear A.F. and B.: Your pastor’s behavior gives new meaning to the term “bully pulpit.” Rather than approach him yourself, you and others who feel as you do should take your complaint to the governing board of your church.

DEAR ABBY ADVICE Dear Abby: I have been dating “Claude” for eight months. We are planning a trip in the fall to visit his family’s chateau in France. Claude has long legs and refuses to travel in coach because it’s uncomfortable, so he will buy a business-class ticket for himself and a coach ticket for me. While I’m grateful Claude is paying for my ticket, I feel that since we’re a couple, we should travel together. I don’t want to be upgraded to business class necessarily, but I’d like him to sit in coach with me. When I brought this up, he refused and is now calling me “ungrateful.”

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

My feelings are hurt, and Claude can’t understand why I am upset. My friends and family think he is acting rude and selfish. I can’t help but agree. Do I have a right to be upset? — Not Ungrateful in San Diego Dear Not Ungrateful: San Diego to France is a LONG flight. It’s a long time to expect a tall person to fold up like a praying mantis just so you won’t be sitting alone in a coach seat on your way to an all-expensepaid vacation. Claude has good reason for wanting to sit in business class. So be a sport and offer to pay for an upgrade to business class and sit with him. Dear Abby: When my husband, “Ken,” proposed three years ago,

CRYPTOQUOTE

he had a steady job with an income twice as high as mine. He was laid off before our wedding, but we went ahead with the marriage. After our wedding, Ken was unemployed for a year before finally finding a minimum wage job. After one year at that job, he was fired. He has since found another minimum wage position. I am a young teacher. We live in an expensive part of the country. We struggle every day to pay for groceries, gas and other essentials. I wasn’t raised to expect many frills in life and I am frugal, but there are certain things I always assumed I would have — a house of my own, children, a savings account. In all other ways, Ken is a wonderful man and I love him with all my heart. But is there ever a time when

love isn’t all you need? — Second Thoughts in Asheville, N.C. Dear Second Thoughts: When you married Ken you promised each other “for richer or poorer.” This recession won’t last forever and, in the meantime, you have a wonderful man you love with all your heart. Whether that’s enough or not, only you can answer. But if you trade in this model, there are no 100 percent guarantees that the next one will be able to give you all you need, either. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, selfaddressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You are so creative now because you are not afraid to look foolish. You will experiment and investigate. You will go where most adults wouldn’t think to go. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). You are complex. Simplistic blackand-white notions don’t apply to you and could actually cause psychological pain. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Your list of abilities is quite long, and it’s about to get longer. Effortless learning is your specialty now. You’re a sponge, picking up new skills by simply being near the people who possess them. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re headed toward sudden and acute disillusionment. This is quite positive, as it will bring you to what’s real and make you more powerful than ever. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Your discretion will be needed, and it won’t be entirely clear how much you should say. Telling the truth is never the wrong thing to do. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You always have a choice about how curious to be, and you usually choose to be absolutely fascinated. You recognize boredom as a state of mind that cannot be imposed on you by anything outside of yourself. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Instead of dreaming impossible dreams, you focus closer to real life. You imagine what you can do to make the best of your time today, and you fully engage in life. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You will consider making a big change. Think it over for a long while.

And you don’t have to tell anyone what you’re thinking, either. You are entitled to your thought processes and are not obligated to share them. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). People look out for their own needs. You’ll try to understand the wants and needs of those around you so that you may anticipate what is likely to happen next. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Having to be absolutely right all the time is a punishing imposition. It only leads to feeling like you are usually wrong. That’s why you refuse to worry about it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). You want to move a mountain, and move it you will. It will happen little by little. Commit to one simple action. Other changes will happen naturally as the world adjusts to accommodate your action. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You will be drawn to esoteric pursuits, the likes of which could be considered “frivolous nonsense” by some standards. You know better. Your “frivolous nonsense” will be life enhancing in some practical way. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 13). You’ll pursue higher education and develop your keen mind. You have an excellent memory for names and faces and will use it to further political and professional interests. Financial barriers drop in September. November highlights relationships. Leo and Aquarius people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 6, 18, 19, 16 and 37.
