Heat ‘dome’ has much of U.S. broiling By TAMMY WEBBER Associated Press

CHICAGO — For millions of people enduring this week’s extreme heat and humidity, it feels like they’re living in a pressure cooker. And in a sense, they are. Much of the United States is trapped under a heat “dome” caused by a huge area of high pressure that’s compressing hot, moist air beneath it, leading to miserable temperatures in the mid-90s to low 100s and heatindex levels well above 100 degrees. “It’s hot no matter what you’re See DOME, Page 14A

Patrol officers responded to the scene, confirmed that person was inside, reportedly armed and refusing to come out. The York County Quick Response team mobilized and responded to the scene, treating it as a person who was barricaded in a residence.

Brown was taken into custody and later charged with criminal homicide. Police said Brittney Burgess, 16, ran away from a home in Scranton in December. Capt.

WILKES-BARRE – The Luzerne County District Attorney’s Office will be forced to drop drunken driving charges against a Hanover Township man after the state Supreme Court refused to hear its appeal of a lower court ruling that suppressed the evidence against the man, a prosecutor confirmed Wednesday.

But they must show the driver was in “actual physical control” of the vehicle at the time he or she was impaired by alcohol. Verdekal’s attorney, Ferris Webby, sought to dismiss the charges, arguing police had failed to show that Verdekal, who was asleep when he was found, had been in physical control of the car. Verdekal maintained he had gone to the car to wait for his brother after the pair had been drinking at a local bar. Webby argued there was no evidence that Verdekal had driven the car to the location in an intoxicated state, or that he had driven it after he exited the bar. A Luzerne County judge agreed and suppressed the evidence. Prosecutors appealed to the Superior Court, which in July 2010 upheld the county judge’s ruling. Prosecutors then asked the Supreme Court to hear the case, but it declined in an order issued last week.

HUD audit nears start

A U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development auditor visited the Luzerne County Community Development office Wednesday to start reviewing records for its audit. HUD recently informed the county that it will be auditing the office’s $6 million in loans to the nonprofit CityVest for the Hotel Sterling project in addition to the county’s block grant program. The nonprofit received $6 million in county community development funds since 2002 to acquire and preserve the Sterling in downtown Wilkes-Barre. Much of the money was spent to demolish an attached structure and acquire property to make the parcel larger. The project has been controversial because the historic building may be demolished.

Ciavarella report disputed

Federal prosecutors and attorneys for former Judge Mark Ciavarella held a conference with a judge Wednesday regarding disputes over a pre-sentence investigation, but were unable to resolve their differences, Ciavarella’s attorney Al Flora said. The attorneys met with Judge Edwin Kosik to discuss objections Ciavarella has made to the Ciavarella pre-sentence report, which was prepared by the federal probation office. The report will be utilized by Kosik to help him determine what sentence to impose on Ciavarella, who was convicted in February of multiple corruption charges related to two juvenile detention centers the county utilized.

Death ruling can be appealed Prosecutors are appealing a judge’s lowering of one charge in a 2008 pedestrian fatality.

By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Luzerne County prosecutors can proceed with an appeal of a ruling that lowered the grading of charges related to a fatal pedestrian accident, the state Superior Court has ruled. The ruling, issued Tuesday in the case against Megan Panowicz, means

the Superior Court will now review the case on its merits to determine whether to uphold or overturn the lower court decision. Panowicz was charged in connection with the Aug. 7, 2008, death of Sharon Shaughnessy, who was killed after she was struck by three vehicles, including one allegedly driven by Panowicz, as Shaughnessy crossed Wyoming Avenue near Pierce Street in Kingston. Panowicz and one of the other drivers left the scene before police arrived. Prosecutors are challenging an April 27 ruling by Senior Judge Charles

Brown Jr. that lowered the grading of one of the charges against Panowicz from a third-degree felony to a firstdegree misdemeanor – a decision that reduces the potential prison sentence from a mandatory one year in prison to 90 days in prison. Prosecutors appealed that ruling in May to the Superior Court. Panowicz’s attorney, Basil Russin, asked the Superior Court to dismiss the appeal outright because Brown’s order was not a “final” order, which means the appellate court would not have jurisdiction See APPEAL, Page 4A

Mental health exam OK’d

A Luzerne County judge ruled Wednesday prosecutors may conduct their own mental health evaluation of a Shickshinny man charged in the September death of a woman. Judge David Lupas said Assistant District Attorney Jarrett Ferentino and Rebecca Reimiller may use a local psychologist to conduct a mental health evaluation of John Stone, 59, charged in the September 2009 death of Catherine Tabit. Stone Earlier this month, Stone’s attorney, Joseph Albert, said he may "elect to offer at trial a defense involving evidence ... relating to (the) existence of a mental infirmity, mental disease, mental condition ..." or other circumstances surrounding Tabit’s death at the time of Stone’s September trial. Police allege Stone used a 13-inch hatchet to strike Tabit, 37, of Kingston, after the two argued at Stone’s North Canal Street home. Police say the two fought back and forth when Stone grabbed a metal object, later identified as the hatchet.

The other contract cited by Dombroski was a now-expired agreement to pay a combined $95,000 to attorneys Edward Ciarimboli and Michael Butera to handle mental health legal issues. Commissioners decided to cover the work with inhouse solicitors. County officials raised concerns that the two attorneys missed roughly 150 of the 410 involuntary mental health commitment hearings held in the past year, even though their contracts required their attendance. Both lawyers have defended their work, saying hearings had to be missed because they had to file time-

Bob Alper, a member of the Korean War Veterans Association of Wyoming Valley, said he recalled reading a news article from June 1991 about the return of 11 coffins and three boxes containing dog tags. “So much stuff was turned over,” said Alper, who was a sergeant with the First Marine Division when he went to Korea in 1951.

sensitive court paperwork to schedule other mental-health hearings around the same time. The filings were also required by their contracts and had to take precedence over attending hearings because missed scheduling could create liability issues for the county, they said. Dombroski said former county chief public defender Basil Russin was forced last year to repay on-call stipends that weren’t properly authorized by the county. Commissioners did not respond to Dombroski during the meeting. Commissioner Stephen A. Urban said after the meeting that county Solicitor Vito DeLuca is reviewing the recorder of deeds contract and may be asked to examine the mental health legal contract. Urban said Russin’s repayment is not comparable because he was a full-time, salaried county employee when he received the on-call stipends.

Documents that were also turned over indicated the remains were recovered from North Hwanghae Province, an area that was near two major North Korean POW camps – Suan Bean Camp and Suan Mining Camp, according to the Defense Department.

missioners about the potential elimination of pay for row officer deputies in the 2012 county budget. Chesnovitch said the deputies might be needed and retained under the new home rule government taking effect in January. Commissioners said the new home rule charter forces them to remove the compensation for row officer deputy positions from next year’s budget because the row offices will cease to exist. The commissioners said many row officer deputies have experience and qualifications that should make them strong contenders for new jobs created by the charter, though decisions on hiring will be up to the new county council and manager. Home rule eliminates the elected sheriff, treasurer, coroner, recorder of deeds, register of wills, two jury commissioners, clerk of courts and prothonotary.

In other business, several personnel actions were approved in the public defender’s office. Two employees were hired – Danielle Bruno, West Pittston, assistant public defender, $40,000, and Nicholas Lermitte, Harveys Lake, office manager/administrator, $30,900. Two positions were also created in the department – a $28,000 caseworker and $30,000 deputy chief investigator. A $152,000 grant will initially fund most of the pay and benefits, though a $20,000 county match will be required in the second year. Chief Public Defender Al Flora said he is interviewing applicants and expects to present the chosen candidates for hire next month so they may start work by the Sept. 1 deadline specified in the grant.

Kelly said the library’s annual gala fundraiser in May netted the library about $51,600.

In a previous interview, he said he believes the Verdekal case will have only limited impact on other cases because it involved a car that was legally parked. Webby said police might still prevail in cases where there is other evidence showing that the car was being driven – such as it being stopped in the middle of the road – at the time of the police investigation.

CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. — Atlantis has checked out perfectly for NASA’s last space shuttle landing ever. The four astronauts tested Atlantis’ flight systems Wednesday, their last full day in orbit. The shuttle and its crew are aiming for a touchdown at 5:56 a.m. today — just before dawn. Excellent weather is forecast in Florida. As their 13-day flight neared an end, the crew deployed a satellite. With the push of a button, they ejected a little 8-pound experiment from a can in Atlantis’ payload bay. The mini-satellite is covered with experimental solar cells. Mission Control congratulated the crew for releasing the 180th and final pay-

The hiring of Andy Coulson has become a major political test and source of discomfort for Cameron, who brought the erstwhile tabloid editor into the heart of his operations at 10 Downing St. after taking office as prime minister in May of last year. Coulson, who resigned as Cameron’s aide in January, was arrested last week by police in a renewed probe into hacking at the now-defunct tabloid. PHOENIX

Japan nuke plant stabilized

More than four months after it was crippled by an earthquake-generated tsunami, Japan’s Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant has stabilized and workers are on track for achieving a cold shutdown within six months, government and utility officials say. Officials made a positive prognosis this week after scaling several hurdles in decommissioning the facility, which was damaged March 11 when a tsunami disabled the plant’s cooling system. The flooding led to partial meltdowns of the reactors that released radioactivity in the atmosphere and prompted the evacuation of tens of thousands of nearby residents. In recent weeks, engineers have established an improvised cooling system to circulate water through the damaged reactors.

FRESNO, Calif. — Three people presumed dead after being swept over a raging waterfall in Yosemite National Park ignored warning signs and crossed a barricade to pose for photographs, a witness said Wednesday. In addition, other hikers on the trail above the 317-foot Vernal Falls warned the group that conditions in the Merced River were treacherous. “People come up here and they think it’s Disneyland,” said Jake Bibee.

down that river knowing he was going to die and nobody could help them.” The Yosemite Search and Rescue unit identified the people presumed dead as Homiz David, 22, of Modesto; Ninos Yacoub, 27, of Turlock; and Ramina Badal, 21, of Modesto. The group of about 10 family members and friends had taken the day trip to see Vernal Falls, a treacherous drop on the swift Merced River made even more dangerous this year because of the record snowmelt now under way. A metal barricade separates hikers from the river where it pools amid a slick slab of granite before crashing over the

side of the barricade. One man, he said, was posing near the waterfall with a screaming young girl in his arms while a teenage girl snapped photographs. As the man complied, another man and woman in the group crossed the barricade and made their way to a rock in the middle of the river to pose for photographs. “That’s when the woman started to slip,” Bibee said. “He reached for her and fell in. Then another one tried to help and she falls in the water. We literally watched them get swept over the edge of Vernal Falls.”

Obama may be open to ‘bargain’

Short-term deal would raise debt ceiling, but only if deficit reduction agreement close. By MICHAEL A. MEMOLI Tribune Washington Bureau

WASHINGTON — The White House signaled Wednesday that President Barack Obama could accept a short-term deal to raise the debt ceiling, but only if it appeared lawmakers were close to an agreement on a significant deficit reduction plan. The hope of such a “grand bargain” was revived Tuesday by the so-called Gang of Six senators, who outlined a deal that would achieve nearly $4 trillion in deficit reduction in the next decade through spending cuts, entitlement reform and an overhaul of the tax code. But Congress must act to raise the debt ceiling by Aug. 2, and the plan discussed in the Senate “We need Tuesday was just a frame- to be sure work, not spe- that that cific legislation that could take fail-safe weeks to move option is through Conthere, even gress.

Press secretary Jay Carney said at his daily briefing Wednesday that the president still believes that. But, “if both sides agree to something significant, we will support the measures needed to finalize the details of that.” “We need to be sure that that fail-safe option is there, even as we pursue aggressively the possibility of doing something bigger,” Carney told reporters. A plan based on a legislative maneuver devised by Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky may be that fail-safe option, or perhaps it would be a simple extension for a matter of weeks or months that would allow time for the Gang of Six plan to move through. It is unclear, though, which if any plan could pass the Democratic-controlled Senate and Republican-led House. Obama reached out Tuesday night to House Speaker John Boehner, R-Ohio, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, DNev., and McConnell. Both parties’ leadership will be coming to the White House Wednesday for separate meetings.

Somalis dying in worst famine in 20 years By KATHARINE HOURELD Associated Press

NAIROBI, Kenya — Tens of thousands of Somalis are feared dead in the world’s worst famine in a generation, the U.N. said Wednesday, and the U.S. said it will allow emergency funds to be spent in areas controlled by al-Qaida-linked militants as long as they do not interfere with aid distributions. Exhausted, rail-thin women

are stumbling into refugee camps in Kenya and Ethiopia with dead babies and bleeding feet, having left weaker family members behind. “Somalia is facing its worst food security crisis in the last 20 years,” said Mark Bowden, the U.N.’s top official in charge of humanitarian aid in Somalia. The crisis is the worst since 1991-92, when hundreds of thousands of Somalis starved to death, Bowden said. That

famine prompted intervention by an international peacekeeping force, but it eventually pulled out after two American Black Hawk helicopters were shot down in 1993. Since then, Western nations have mainly sought to contain the threat of terrorism from Somalia — an anarchic nation where the weak government battles Islamic militants on land and pirates hijack ships for millions of dollars at sea.

glassy eyes and slurred speech. Police said Redditt would not comply with orders to sit in the back of a police cruiser and that an officer suffered bruising and swelling of his elbow because force was used. Paramedics told police an unknown male arrived at the

Police went to a Holland Street home where the child’s grandmother, Javette Uggiano, refused medical treatment for the child and signed a waiver. Police said Redditt was driving with a BAC of .175 percent. An adult driver in Pennsylvania is considered intoxicated with a BAC of .08 percent.

Pittston council OKs putting home rule on November ballot Main reason for a new government is to deal with the tax burden, official says. By B. GARRET ROGAN Times Leader Correspondent

PITTSTON -- City voters can now officially expect to see a ballot measure seeking approval for a home rule study commission this November. City council held its second and final reading of the proposed home rule study ordinance at Wednesday night’s council meeting.

MEMORIAL

Council member Mike Lombardo said the primary motivating factor for the move to home rule would be to reduce property taxes. He was joined in his stance by council member Joe Chernauskas, who pointed out the city could no longer look solely to property tax increases as a means to increase revenue, as much of the city’s senior citizen population will not be able to adjust to any increases. City resident Jim Norris, who was eager to start the home rule discussion at the beginning of the meeting, stated his concerns that

home rule would lead to the city levying more taxes on residents. But Joe Moskowitz, city manager, said it was premature to worry about excess taxation because the home rule study has not even been approved by voters. He said it was not the city’s intention to overburden its residents with taxes. Norris said he trusts the intentions of the current administration, but he is skeptical of what future administrations might do with the same taxing authority. Lombardo then said that caps and safeguards could be written into any future home rule charter.

W H AT ’ S N E X T

The next regular council meeting will be Wednesday, Aug. 17 at 7 p.m.

In the upcoming November election, city voters will be faced with a ballot question to approve or deny the home rule study as well as a slate of candidates to serve on the study commission. Seven candidates will ultimately be elected if the study measure passes. Prospective candidates will have to file petitions with the names of registered city voters in

order to qualify for the November ballot. Moskowitz has contacted Luzerne County Director of Elections Leonard Piazza to confirm the exact number of signatures that will be required, but he estimated that it will be between 80 and 200. The filing deadline has not yet been determined. Also on Wednesday, the council held the first reading of an ordinance to regulate the placement and maintenance of private collection bins within city limits. Lombardo said the ordinance is in response to complaints

about garbage being left in and around the bins that are put out by private property owners and/ or private companies to solicit donated clothing. He said he hopes that, once enacted, the ordinance will give the city the ability to prevent the mess or eyesore that prompted the initial complaints. In other business, the city hired John McGuire of Plains Township and James Barasa of Hughestown as part-time firefighters. Daniel Kosisky of Jenkins Township was appointed as a fire department trainee.

an accident reconstruction report and toxicology results, which are expected to take several weeks. But the 200 teenagers who attended the memorial service, held just down the road from Crestwood High School, where Madry played hockey and lacrosse, weren’t focused on the teen’s last moments. Memorial service organizers said they didn’t want to talk about his death, choosing rather to remember his life. Waiting to sign the book for Madry, attendees stood in clusters of 10 to 20, as teens often do, but spoke only in whispers. Many held back tears or hid them behind dark sunglasses, but broke into mourning as they embraced. The event was organized by Madry’s classmate Andrew Brodginski through a Facebook page. Brodginski and others set up a small memorial for Madry on a folding table in front of the booksigning table. It contained a picture of Madry from behind, seeming to move forward into the clouds, and flanked by his date of birth and death. Another teen read a poem in remembrance of Madry featuring

Gallagher, a former Crestwood student who said he had known Madry since Middle School said he hoped the song would help others deal with the sadness and sense of loss brought on by Madry’s death. “I chose to do that song because anyone can relate to it,” he said. “It’s a song that’s helped me through some hard times. If I can play a song that helps people feel better, I will.” “If love is a labor I’ll slave till the end,” the songs lyrics read. “I won’t cross these streets until you DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER hold my hand.” And then they were silent Friends of Brian Madry listen as Alec Gallagher, 17, plays the guitar and sings Wednesday at the memorial for Madry.

Expert says gas metering facility would pose little risk in Dallas Twp. By SARAH HITE shite@timesleader.com

DALLAS TWP. – An expert retained by Chief Gathering LLC for a township zoning hearing Wednesday night said there would be “no effect” on the Dallas School District campus if a pipeline leak occurred at a proposed metering facility to be located within 1,400 feet of the closest school building. Ali Reza, vice president and principal engineer for Exponent Engineering and Scientific Con-

sulting based in Menlo Park, Calif., testified on behalf of Chief’s application for special exceptions to construct a natural gas metering station on a property located off Hildebrandt Road about 1,300 feet from the district boundary line. Chief attorneys several months ago retained the expert in fire and explosion risk analysis to provide an overview of the proposed project. Reza said there are several factors involved in the potential for natural gas flowing from a Chief gathering line through a metering site to the Transco interstate

The zoning hearing for Chief Gathering LLC’s application for special zoning exceptions will continue at 6:30 p.m. Thursday in the Dallas Middle School auditorium.

station would only reach to 567 feet in one of Reza’s calculations. He said that if all these factors were present and all the pipeline’s safeguards, including automatic shut-down valves, failed, the school and church exceed this distance and would not be damaged should the gas leak be ignited.

ed to calculate the risk of nearby houses in the area located on Fairground Road. He said the area in which the pipeline associated with the metering station would be located fits the description of a class 1 level area, a regulation created by the federal Department of Transportation. A class 1 level, which determines the wall thickness, engineering controls and other aspects of the pipeline, would typically be implemented because there are fewer than 10 occupied structures within 220 yards of the pipeline. Chief plans to utilize a class 4

level pipeline for the project, the highest federally regulated level. Reza said he based his calculations on the assumption Chief would implement the highest pipeline integrity management program for its planned metering station, but the program has not yet been determined because the plans have not been approved. Through negotiations, Chief has agreed to remove aspects of its operation from the site, including an 8,000-gallon underground tank of the flammable odorant mercaptan and a 100foot communications tower.

He said he was told to determine the risk of damage to the Dallas Middle School, which is the closest structure to the metering station at 1,461 feet, and the Fellowship Free Evangelical Church on Hildebrandt Road, which is about 900 feet away. Reza said there would be no damage to either structure in the worst-case scenario. He also said natural gas, which is primarily composed of methane and ethane, needs to maintain a certain percentage of concentration to become combustible.

Schools’ health trust looks to save $1.4 million By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

WYOMING – The consortium that sets health insurance premium rates for most area school districts hopes to save about $1.4 million over the next four years by renegotiating a contract for administrative services with Blue Cross of Northeastern

Pennsylvania. Andrew Marko, executive director of the Northeast Pennsylvania School District Health Trust, discussed the effort Wednesday during the regular monthly meeting of the group’s board of trustees. Marko said he had approached Blue Cross with the idea, arguing that sharp cuts in education funding have led to pay freezes, spending reductions and layoffs. “I asked if they could help districts through this,” Marko said. The trust is self-insured, mean-

ing it devises coverage options, sets and collects premiums and disperses benefits. But since its inception in 1999, it has contracted Blue Cross to actually manage much of that work. Blue Cross does not provide the insurance coverage. Marko said the current contract runs through the 2014-15 school year, and that the two sides are negotiating reductions in various charges in that contract. So far, they’ve reached a tentative agreement that would save

Assault suspect arraigned Brad Huzzard is one of three men charged in the robbery of a Chinese food delivery man. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A third man police say had been involved in the robbery and assault of a food delivery employee was arraigned Wednesday on related charges. Brad Huzzard, 19, of Taylor, was arraigned on three counts of robbery, two counts of aggravated assault, two counts of simple assault and one count each of criminal conspiracy, theft and two weapons charges. Police had been unable to locate Huzzard immediately after the incident. Huzzard and two other men were charged in the June 25 incident in which Pittston police say the men ordered food from the Golden Star Chinese Restaurant on North Main Street. Ronald Perschau, Jr., 18 of Tompkins Street, and Carlos Rios, 18, of Riverview Manor, both of Pittston, are also facing robbery and assault charges. Perschau recently waived his

right to a preliminary hearing and is facing related charges in Luzerne County Court. Huzzard has been jailed at the county prison on $25,000 bail. According to the criminal complaints: Police said the restaurant received an order from a blocked phone number at about 9:20 p.m. Saturday for three orders of General Tso’s chicken to be delivered at a residence on Lyons Lane, a dark alley near Main Street. Police said that when the employee, Ping Zheng, arrived in the alley Perschau, Rios and Huzzard assaulted him. Police said the three men placed a pellet gun to Zheng’s throat and struck him in the head while demanding money. Zheng was transported to Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center in Plains Township. While officers were still on Lyons Lane, they learned Rios was sitting in a vehicle nearby. Rios told police, according to the complaint, he was hanging out with Perschau and Huzzard but did not take part in the assault and robbery. Police found Perschau at a residence in Taylor. Police allege he told them Rios planned the assault and robbery, the complaint says.

$1.4 million over the life of the contract. But the trust wants to include language in the renegotiated contract that would offer some guarantee of low prices when compared to what Blue Cross charges other schools or school organizations for the same service. Health Trust attorney Robert Mariani said he is working on language that would ensure no school organization smaller than the trust got a better rate. “Because we are one of the

largest groups,” Mariani said, “the rate for us ought to be lower than any smaller group.” The tentative agreement for lower rates in the current contract “is subject to including that language.” In an unrelated matter that could cost the trust millions, Mariani said there was no news on a lawsuit filed by Pittston Area and Dallas school districts. The two withdrew from the trust in 2007, contending the trust built up an excess surplus by overcharging districts.

KEEP ON ROLLIN’

They sued in 2008 to get what they claim is their part of the surplus. Estimates peg that at more than $4 million. The trust contends the agreement signed by all members clearly states any money paid by members stays with the trust unless it is completely dissolved. A non-jury trial concluded July 7 in Luzerne County Court. Both sides are awaiting Judge Lewis Wetzel’s ruling. Mariani said he has no information on the status of that decision.

MUNICIPAL BRIEF EDWARDSVILLE – Tax Collector Carol Brawley announced that school taxes will be issued July 29. First day for collections will be Saturday, July 30. Payments must be received by Sept. 29 to receive the 2

percent rebate. Hours during the rebate period at the borough building are Tuesday and Wednesday, 5 to 7 p.m. and Saturday, 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Payers should bring the entire bill; the receipt is on the bottom of the bill. Home collections are available to anyone by calling the office at 288-7899.

COURTDALE – Repeated public nuisances and noise violations apparently have been causing considerable anxiety for several citizens. Residents of Charles Street on Tuesday night brought their concerns to borough council. They said they’ve consistently complained to Courtdale police since Memorial Day about extremely loud music. “I can’t go into any room of my house to get away from it. I’ve called the police three different times, and as soon as they leave, the volume is back up,” said Charles Street resident John Novy. While neighborhood residents are frustrated, officer John Fronzoni urged them to be patient and wait for the due process of the law. “In order to handle it, one thing we need is a victim, because without a victim there is no crime. What determines that is for residents to come to the magistrate and say that they have been affected by this,” Fronzoni said. Council also updated residents on the status of the Evans Street bridge project. The project, which was slated to be completed this month, has been put on hold because of incorrect survey data. An estimated completion date has been pushed back to October. In other business, Luzerne County 911 requested the borough approve several address changes on stretches of Memorial Highway. The addresses of one residential location, as well as the former Wasserott’s along Route 309, will be altered to be numerically consecutive and more convenient for emergency responders.

PITTSBURGH — Investment and production in the Marcellus Shale natural gas field is growing faster than expected, according to a new industry-sponsored report. The report, commissioned by the Marcellus Shale Coalition and released Wednesday, says that production quadrupled between 2009 and last year and the number of wells in production grew by 77 percent. The study’s authors estimate that this year’s production will be more than 21⁄2 times last year’s figure. And in the next nine year, the report said, the Marcellus could supply a quarter of the nation’s natural gas.” “These are some dramatic results,” said Kathyrn Klaber, president and executive director of the Marcellus Shale Coalition, adding that the findings “underscore the longevity, the sustainability of this resource in Pennsylvania for generations to come.” The study was authored by Penn State University researchers Timothy Considine, Robert Watson and Seth Blumsack of the Department of Energy and Mineral Engineering. Another Penn State expert not involved with the report said that while early production data are encouraging, long-term projections should be viewed with caution. The researchers found that production jumped from 300 million cubic feet per day to 1.3 billion from 2009 to last year, and the number of wells in production increased from 595 in

2009 to 1,055 during that time. “My view is that there’s some reason for being a skeptic,” said Michael Arthur of Penn State’s Department of Geosciences. “From what I’ve seen from the Marcellus, we don’t have data to effectively make accurate long-term projections.” Arthur said the wells’ shortterm performance “is much better than expected,” adding that if the Marcellus wasn’t profitable, energy companies “wouldn’t be forging ahead” at the current pace. Pennsylvania is the largest drilling state that doesn’t impose a tax or fee on natural gas extraction. Klaber signaled support Wednesday for an impact fee. Acknowledging there are “some unmet needs,” she said: “A reasonable, competitive impact fee that takes those dollars back to the community in which we are operating is probably the right model to move forward with.” The Penn State report estimated that 2,300 new wells may be drilled this year, and about 2,400 more in each of the next five years. Total spending is projected to rise to $12.7 billion this year from $3.2 billion in 2008, said the report issued Wednesday. It also claims robust employment growth, with about 60,000 jobs in 2009 growing to nearly 140,000 last year. The industry projects more than 156,000 will be employed this year. The industry report suggests that the Marcellus could become the largest producing gas field in the U.S., supporting perhaps 250,000 jobs by 2020. Sharon Ward, director of the Pennsylvania Budget and Policy Center, issued her group’s state-

ment in response to an industryfunded study. “This is the third study conducted by Penn State faculty on behalf of the natural gas industry into the economic impact of the Marcellus Shale. We are pleased to see that Penn State has made it clear this time that the study is sponsored and funded by the natural gas industry, not the university,” she said. “Overall, we welcome the gas industry’s contribution to Pennsylvania’s economy, but with this study, the industry continues to overstate the economic benefits and underestimate the costs of increased drilling in the Marcellus Shale.” Ward said the study overstates the number of jobs supported by the industry at 140,000 jobs (2.4 percent of the state workforce). She said jobs data from the state Department of Labor and Industry show that less than 19,000 people were employed directly in core Marcellus Shale industries at the end of 2010. Anastasia Shcherbakova, a professor of energy economics at Penn State, said long-term production estimates are subject to many variables, including price, market demand and political factors.

Editorial

STATE OPINION: PSYCH TREATMENT

Free rides vital to mental health

F THERE’S ONE key lesson from the growing pains of closing mental hospitals around the country, it’s that communitybased care for the mentally ill only works when patients receive their medication and other treatment. So a proposal to halt free rides to rehabilitation centers for psychiatric patients in Pennsylvania – thankfully, now being pulled back for review – clearly was the wrong way to go. Driven in part by Gov. Tom Corbett’s austere state budget, the policy generated an understandable uproar from mentalhealth advocates, providers and patients alike. With thousands of individuals relying on weekly rides to recovery centers where they learn job and life skills, the impact of halting transportation funding for county agencies and providers would have been immediate. For some patients, it could

have represented a setback on their road to recovery – as well as posed dire challenges for families and caregivers trying to cope with someone suffering from illness. The hope is that the review of the policy will result in its quickly being scrapped altogether. In either case, the reprieve is a welcome indication that Corbett aides are willing to recalibrate their approach to spending issues when presented with a compelling set of facts. Of course, state officials need only have checked the relatively recent history of deinstitutionalization. Decades ago, failing to provide critical community assistance – such as rides to clinics – swelled the ranks of the homeless with mentally ill individuals discharged from state hospitals. There’s no need to learn that painful lesson all over again. The Philadelphia Inquirer

QUOTE OF THE DAY “Help us to reach out to these kids before they go down the wrong path.” Michael Vick The Philadelphia Eagles quarterback, who formerly served in prison for dogfighting offenses, attended a news conference this week on Capitol Hill to back legislation that would penalize those people who knowingly attend animal fights and allow minors to attend.

hat I liked best about former Luzerne County controller Steve Flood was he gave the little guy a chance to be heard and gave a voice to those afraid to speak up. I believe Steve Flood, like most of us trying to bring sanity to government, never intended to hurt the two judges. What was exposed in Luzerne County over the last few years was the tip of the iceberg. The love of power and money has warped governments and corporations all over the United States. Steve just tried to make things better on his small part of the planet. Now that more people are admitting Steve was right, what will come of it? Will people be more willing to show up when the next courageous person who stands up for them asks for their backing? Thank you, Steve, for showing us the way. You are sadly missed.

Writer urges opposition to forced pooling policy

he Times Leader printed an article titled “Corbett’s gas panel calls for payments” (July 16). The subtitle summarized: “The advisory group approves pooling, a measure used when landowners hold out.” Gov. Tom Corbett’s panel wants to extend an un-American policy called “forced pooling” to natural gas drilling, which is “used to force holdout landowners to lease their below-ground gas rights under certain conditions.” This would prevent a homeowner from refusing a drilling company that wants to access natural gas via private property. Forced pooling violates the first article of Pennsylvania’s constitution, which unalterably grants the inherent right to acquire, possess and protect property. Forced pooling benefits corporations’ bottom lines, not residents of Pennsylvania. Oppose forced pooling. Don’t allow the government to revoke our rights. Nicole Karr Benton

Representative says bill unfair to utility customers

t should come as no surprise that in his June 26 letter to the editor, Terrance Fitzpatrick, president and CEO of the Energy Association of Pennsylvania, advocates for legislation to allow utilities to automatically raise their rates. He is, after all, head of an organization that refers to itself as the “Voice of the Electric and Natural Gas Utility Industries in Harrisburg.” Mr. Fitzpatrick wrote his letter in response to my June 17 guest column on Rep. Robert Godshall’s House Bill 1294, which would allow the Public Utility Commission to approve requests of natural gas, electric and wastewater utility companies to automatically increase their customer rates without having to prove that these increases are necessary. Mr. Fitzpatrick naturally wrote his letter in support of H.B. 1294, and Rep. Godshall also has responded with a guest column of his own. One thing the three of us can agree on is that utility companies must repair and replace their aging infrastructure. However, I stand by my original statement that H.B. 1294 would result in unjustified automatic rate increases. Once utilities obtain the right to raise rates automatically, they would no longer have to prove they need to increase rates on an overall basis – that their increased costs to update or expand their infrastructure outweigh any cost savings or revenue increases. Neither Mr. Fitzpatrick nor Rep. Godshall disputes this fact in their recent comments on the bill. Many utilities such as PECO Gas have gone 10 to 20 years without a single base rate increase. They have managed to expand and replace infrastructure while saving customers money through the use of new technologies, increased sales, operational mergers and other efficiencies. Mr. Fitzpatrick and Rep. Godshall are

DOONESBURY

correct that water utilities have been allowed to place automatic surcharges on customer bills for 15 years now. However, that has not prevented water utilities from filing base rate cases for more revenue as Mr. Fitzpatrick and Rep. Godshall seem to suggest. These companies continue to file for base rate increases about every two years. The PUC recently released an audit stating that Pennsylvania American Water Co. could realize an annual savings of up to $2.6 million by following audit recommendations. Assuming that the water company were to save that money, however, those savings do not have to be reflected in their automatic charges on your water bill. H.B. 1294 would give the same latitude to other utility companies. I agree that ratepayers must pay 100 percent of what it costs to repair or replace utility infrastructure, but they should not have to pay any more than that. State Rep. Phyllis Mundy Kingston

Cooler nights earlier in the summer slowed the ripening of his corn and tomato crops, O’Malia said, but muggy nighttime conditions have sped up that process. “My grandfather always used to say the nights that you and I can’t sleep, those hot, muggy nights, those are the nights that the tomatoes and the corn love,” O’Malia said. He spent Wednesday in his fields, harvesting crops to sell at today’s Farmers Market in WilkesBarre. “I’m a third-generation farmer,” he said. “Even when I was in school I spent the summers working in the fields, and now at 52 years old I’m used to it. We deal with it.” Tips for gardeners O’Malia said home gardeners worrying about their crops wilting in the heat should resist watering more than the usual once or twice a week. “If they’re really wilting and the ground is parched dry, you can

give them a little extra,” he said, “but don’t all of a sudden get into the habit of over-watering.” The heat has increased demand for power on the PJM Interconnect, the power transmission grid that serves Pennsylvania and other mid-Atlantic states. Power demand peaked Wednesday at 148,606 megawatts, close to peak summertime demand grid managers had predicted but well shy of the grid’s180,000 megawatt capacity, spokeswoman Paula DupontKidd said. A megawatt is about the energy required to power 1,000 homes. Both electric utilities serving the region, PPL Electric Utilities and UGI Utilities Inc., are urging customers to take steps to conserve energy while staying cool. PPL recommends keeping window shades and blinds drawn, checking air-conditioner filters to maintain optimal air flow and efficiency, using a programmable thermostat to control temperature settings, keeping doors and windows in rooms with an air conditioner closed, only using lights as needed, and minimizing use of heat-generating appliances such as dishwashers, ovens, stoves, washers and dryers during the warmest hours of the day.

Although his huge Caterpillar excavator has air conditioning, he couldn’t entirely escape. “When you’re done for the day, you’re ready to eat, drink and hit the couch.” The oppressive conditions extend from the northern Plains states to Texas and from Nebraska to the Ohio Valley. And they’re expanding eastward. When a high pressure system develops in the upper atmosphere, the air below it sinks and compresses because there’s more weight on top, causing temperatures in the lower atmosphere to heat up, said Eli Jacks, a meteorologist with the National Weather Service in Silver Spring, Md.

John Drelick of Wilkes-Barre calls out numbers Wednesday during a bingo game at the Charles T. Adams Senior Center.

Jeannette Guest of Wilkes-Barre spends Wednesday afternoon at the Charles T. Adams Senior Center cooling off.

That also explains why temperatures in, say, North Dakota this week aren’t all that different from temperatures in Houston, he said. The big difference is that people in Houston are accustomed to hot weather, while those in the north are not. “In places where the highest temperature you ever expect is in the 80s and you’re at 102, there are big health concerns,” because fewer people have air conditioning or fans, Jacks said. “Heat is the No. 1 killer out of all weather hazards.” What’s more, because of the humidity, even nighttime brings little relief. “It’s been 100 degrees at 11 o’clock, lately, at night,” said Curtis Mark, who was servicing air conditioners Tuesday at the Greer County Courthouse in Mangum, Okla., where the temperature was 106 degrees at noon. “Stay indoors is about all I do.” Fellow Oklahoman Norma Lauer of Granite said she puts cold water on her hands and arms before going to bed and then lies down “without covering up on the bed, under the fan” and with the air conditioner running.

Thunderstorms can develop around the perimeter of the dome — called the “ring of fire” — bringing temporary relief to some areas, said Kevin Birk, a National Weather Service meteorologist in Illinois. But this dome is so large that the heat rebuilds quickly, Birk said. While heat domes aren’t uncommon, this one is unusual because of its size and duration. It began three days ago and may last seven to 10 days in some locations. And it’s moving eastward, with temperatures expected to reach 100 degrees in Washington by today. National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration records show that the United States broke 25 local high records for the date on Monday, including 103 degrees in both Edgemont S.D., and Victoria, Texas. On Tuesday, it was 102 in Manhattan, Kan., and Valentine, Neb. The mercury rose to 100 in Joplin, Mo., and Rockford, Ill. — which tied that city’s record for the date set in 1930. And in some cities it will be even hotter Wednesday: Chicago reached 93 degrees Tuesday, with 97 forecast for Wednesday.

WASHINGTON — NFL players didn’t vote Wednesday on a full proposal to settle the league’s labor dispute, citing several outstanding issues, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press. The person said there was agreement among representatives of all 32 clubs on what items needed to be resolved before any offer would be accepted. A second person, also speaking on condition of anonymity because the talks are supposed to be secret, said those players gave what was termed “conditional approval” of the proposal — as it stood Wednesday. “We still have a lot of work to do,” said Pro Bowl offensive lineman Tyson Clabo, who played for the Atlanta Falcons last season. The meeting at the NFL Players Association headquarters lasted nearly 10 hours and included the group’s executive committee and the team reps.

BLOOMSBURG — As Dave Marriggi struck out the game’s final batter, his Plains teammates streamed out of the dugout and met the hurler with joyous reactions. The party at the pitching mound was well deserved for Plains. The team had just beaten Back Mountain for the second straight game on Wednesday after dropping five in a row to the same team earlier this season. But in the bigger picture, Plains won

the Region 5 championship for the first time since 2006. Plains entered the day needing to beat Back Mountain twice, and it did just that, winning the first game 22-12 then taking the second 7-4 to win the regional crown and advance to the state tournament.

But each time Back Mountain chipped away at the deficit, Warwick took it right back. “I think the tack-on runs is what killed us. We crawled within 8-4 in bottom of fifth, gave them two right back,” Back Mountain coach Jeff Doggett said. “I think in the end, every success starts with a failure, and be-

MILTON — Warwick’s Cole Nehring waited for his chance and took off from second base. As he slid into third, Brett Mallee went for second and Back Mountain third baseman Michael Luksic tried to get him out on the steal. In a heads-up decision, Warwick then sent Nehring home as the ball went to second. Nehring safely crossed the plate for one of four first-inning runs for Warwick. It was a hole that Back Mountain couldn’t climb out of, as Warwick earned a 10-5 win in the on Wednesday in the opening round of the Pennsylvania Little League minor baseball tournament at the Mary F. Byers Memorial Sports Complex in Milton. See BASEBALL, Page 4B

FRED ADAMS/FOR THE TIMES LEADER

Back Mountain catcher Michael Doggett leaps to snag a throw to the plate on Wednesday in the opening round of the state Little League minor baseball tournament.

he way the Plains American Legion baseball team looks at things, no task is next to impos-

sible. Not with Anthony Grillini on the mound. Not with redemption on the minds of the Plains players. And not with unbending belief where there’s a will, there’s a way. That’s the way Plains pulled off what just about everyone believed was improbable. It beat a Back Mountain team it couldn’t beat all season. And as if to prove that was no minor miracle, Plains upended Back Mountain again. By winning that Region 5 championship doubleheader Wednesday, Plains put itself in the Pennsylvania American Legion state tournament, which opens Tuesday in West Lawn. “Best feeling ever,” Grillini said. His presence as a pitcher gave Plains a sudden shot of hope. Because Grillini not only started both games in the same day against Back Mountain – a tremendously rare task in itself – he earned the victory in the first game and left with a lead after four innings in the second. “Anthony’s been with us for seven years,” Plains coach Don Stark said. “I know what that kid is capable of. If he tells me he could go get it, he can go get it for sure.” But not even the supremely confident Grillini could help feeling Plains was faced an uphill battle when it arrived at the Central Columbia High School baseball field to face its seasonlong tormentor Back Mountain, which had been victorious all previous five times the teams met. “Oh yeah,” Grillini agreed. “Everybody knew we lost to them five times. “I had no fear, though.” Neither did the rest of his teammates. They were buoyed by the knowledge an unbeaten tournament favorite can indeed lose twice in a double-elimination final – it happened to Plains in a league championship that got away against Greater Pittston last season. “A lot of these guys were on that team,” Stark said. “Everybody had that pit in their stomach for a year. They took back what they know was taken from them last year.” That was then, this was now. Plains took a 22-12 victory over Back Mountain in Wednesday’s first game, then won the second game and the championship by a 7-4 score. Plains did it with torrid hitting from leadoff man Jordan Bone and RBI machine Jimmy Graziosi, who drove home seven runs on the day from the seventh spot in the order. Mainly, Plains pulled off its shocking sweep behind Grillini, who allowed just four earned runs over a combined nine innings and struck out 11 during his twinbill brilliance. “We played them five times. I didn’t get one appearance against them in any one of them,” Grillini said. “To come out and shut them down for two games feels great.” He felt a little lost through his senior high school season at Coughlin and in the early part of American Legion play, struggling to find the form that made him such a feared pitcher last year. But after a little break from pitching for Plains and a lot of work with Plains pitching coach Jason Tribbet, Grillini tweaked his mechanics a bit and regained his pitching success. He also changed his motion for Wednesday’s second game, delivering pitches to the plate from a three-quarter angle as opposed to his normal overhand motion. It wound up to be something Back Mountain, and most Legion baseball fans, never saw coming.

CHICAGO — Vance Worley pitched eight dominant innings, Jimmy Rollins homered from both sides of the plate and the Philadelphia Phillies pounded Ryan Dempster and the Chicago Cubs, 9-1, at steamy Wrigley Field Wednesday. It was another standout performance by Worley (6-1), who won his fourth straight start and continues to give the Phillies all they could ask for with Roy Oswalt and Joe Blanton injured. The 23-year-old right-hander allowed one run and four hits. Rollins hit solo shots batting left-handed against Ramon Ortiz in the sixth and from the right side against John Grabow in the eighth. Dempster (7-7) lasted just three innings for Chicago, yielding six runs and seven hits. Michael Martinez had two hits, two steals and scored two runs for Philadelphia. The gametime temperature was 97 degrees.

T H I S D A T E I N B A S E B A L L July 21 1921 — The Cleveland Indians and the New York Yankees combined for an AL record 16 doubles as the Indians won 17-8. Cleveland had nine doubles and New York seven. 1945 — The Detroit Tigers and the Philadelphia Athletics battled 24 innings and ended in a 1-1 tie. Les Mueller pitched 19 2-3 innings for the Tigers. 1956 — Brooks Lawrence of the Cincinnati Reds had his 13-game winning streak broken as Roberto Clemente’s three-run homer led the Pittsburgh Pirates to a 4-3 victory. 1970 — San Diego’s Clay Kirby held the New York Mets hitless for eight innings but was lifted for a pinch hitter by manager Preston Gomez. With the Padres trailing 1-0 with two out in the eighth, Gomez elected to go for the win instead of letting Kirby finish the game. The Padres lost the no-hitter and the game, 3-0. 1973 — Hank Aaron of Atlanta hit his 700th home run in the third inning of an 8-4 loss to Philadelphia. Aaron connected on a 1-1 fastball off Phillies pitcher Ken Brett. 1975 — Joe Torre of the New York Mets grounded into four double plays in a 6-2 loss to the Houston Astros. Felix Millan had four singles but was wiped out each time by Torre. 2006 — Alex Rodriguez became the youngest player to reach 450 home runs when he homered in the New York Yankees’ 7-3 loss to Toronto. Rodriguez also recorded his 2,000th career hit. 2008 — Detroit’s 19-4 victory at Kansas City marked the third time this season the Tigers scored 19 runs. The Boston Red Sox were the last team to accomplish that feat, scoring 19 or more four times in 1950. Detroit beat Texas 19-6 on April 23 and Minnesota 19-3 on May 24.

HORSE RACING

Tele-betting giving exposure to Pocono Downs By VAN ROSE vrose@timesleader.com

PLAINS TWP. — Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs gained national television exposure last fall when the track hosted the Breeders Crown championship series for the first time. This season, the track continues to be in the national spotlight, thanks to Television Games Network (TVG). The cable horse racing chan-

nel shows the last four races of the Pocono Downs card every Tuesday night, and it is drawing extra attention to the track. “We’re getting a positive feedback from having some of our races shown on TVG,” said Dale Rapson, Vice President of Racing Operations at Mohegan Sun. “We’re very pleased with the national exposure.” Beyond the positive feedback from local fans, Pocono Downs

is seeing a financial gain from being on TV. Rapson estimates that the races shown on TVG boost the track’s handle for Tuesday nights by 5 percent. “That’s great,” he said. “It brings our track to the attention of a lot of viewers that might not be aware, otherwise. Viewers will wager through the Internet or use our tele-betting.” According to Rapson, the track handle is about equal or

slightly higher than it was at this time last year. He didn’t have the exact figures at hand. “Our product (harness racing) is doing OK. We have a great purse structure, and the $500,000 Earl Beal Memorial Trot was accepted well.” One major difference this year is the track had mostly 16race cards in 2010, while this season most the average number of races is 14 races. Pocono

Downs conducts racing four nights a week – Tuesday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday. Rapson said Pocono Downs is focusing much of its marketing strategy toward younger fans. “We want to bring in more young people,” Rapson said. “You won’t see an immediate impact with handles, but we’re seeing a lot more younger people, which is a good sign.”

That’s why Pocono Downs recently started its “Friday night under the lights” promotion, which includes small bands. It also has occasional discount nights. Some of the young fans are brining a new enthusiasm to the sport, Rapson said. “They cheer like they have a thousand dollars bet on a horse,” he said. “That’s a great way to start.”

LOCKOUT

COLLINS

Continued from Page 1B

In Atlanta, where the owners’ labor committee met, general counsel Jeff Pash said the sides would talk through the night in hopes of having a final agreement ready to go today. “It’s obviously a complicated agreement, but I think both sides are at the point where they can close, they should close, and we should be in a position to take votes,” Pash, the owners’ lead negotiator, said following a fivehour session at a hotel near Atlanta’s airport. NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell joined the meeting of nine of the 10 members of the labor committee, which hoped to recommend a finalized proposal to all club owners, who are due there today. Remaining issues are believed to include how to set aside three pending court cases: The players’ antitrust lawsuit against the NFL in federal court in Minnesota; the TV networks case, in which players accused owners of setting up $4 billion in “lockout insurance,” money that the league would receive even if there were no games played in 2011; and a collusion case, in which players said owners conspired to restrict salaries last offseason. “I think that’s the healthy outcome: to have a complete, comprehensive, global agreement that settles all the disputes and puts us on a path where we are going forward together as business partners, the way it should be, rather that going forward with one hand and fighting over something that should be in the past,” Pash said. Asked whether owners would consider approving an agreement today, Carolina Panthers owner Jerry Richardson smiled and said: “I’m always ready for a vote.” New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft, who is on the labor committee, wasn’t expected to participate because his wife, Myra, died Wednesday, at age 68, after a battle with cancer. Earlier Wednesday, NFLPA president Kevin Mawae cautioned not to assume the lockout will be over by the weekend, saying that his group was “not tied” to a deadline for getting a deal done in the next 24 hours. “We want to go back to work, but we will not agree to a deal unless it’s the best deal for the players,” Mawae said in the morning. “Our goal today is to see what is on the table and discuss outlying issues,” he said. “The players are not tied to a July 21 timeline. Our timeline is that which gives us the best deal for the players — today, tomorrow or whatever it might be.” If the four-month lockout — the NFL’s first work stoppage since 1987 — is going to end in time to keep the preseason completely intact, the players and owners almost certainly must ratify the deal today. The St. Louis Rams and Chicago Bears are scheduled to open the preseason Aug. 7 in the Hall of Fame game. Asked whether that exhibition game will be played, Pash replied: “We’ll see. It’s getting tight. It would be pretty challenging. That’s one of the things we’ll have to focus on.” If owners do vote Thursday, at least 24 would need to OK the deal. If it’s passed by both sides, team executives would be schooled later that day and Friday in Atlanta in the guidelines and how to apply them; topics would include the 2011 NFL calendar, rookie salary system and new free agency rules.

years and I had kind of a rough start but I am proud of the way I came back from that and the things I accomplished over the years. There will be parts of it that I will miss, but I don’t think I’ll ever regret the decision I made.” He spoke with former Titans punter Craig Hentrich and his agent, David Dunn, for advice before deciding that he would leave the NFL on his own and not when his phone quit ringing. “Very few guys get to do that. That was the biggest reason why I did it when I did it,” Collins said. At the end of last season and as recently as late June at a charity softball game, Collins said he felt he had a couple more good years left. He then retired July 7 in a statement released by his agent. He might have stepped away in March if the NFL lockout hadn’t stopped the Titans from pressing him for his plans. He said he respects new Titans coach Mike Munchak, also from Penn State, and fans have been asking him for months if he was returning to Tennessee. Now he plans to work more at songwriting with a couple of his songs being cut with a third possibly being recorded. He’s got a new Harley-Davidson motorcycle to ride without violating a contract, and he and his family will spend more time at his North Carolina farm with trips to Penn State this fall for football games. “I’m at peace now,” Collins said. The fifth pick overall in 1995 out of Penn State, Collins was the first selection by the then-expansion Carolina Panthers. Released in 1998, he also played for New Orleans, helped the New York Giants to the 2001 Super Bowl, and Oakland before his final five seasons in Tennessee. He retires with some lofty numbers. Collins ranks 11th all-time in yards passing with 40,441 yards between Joe Montana (40,551) and Johnny Unitas (40,239). He also ranks ninth all-time in completions with 3,439, ahead of Montana (3,409) and behind Fran Tarkenton (3,686). His career record of 84-100 as a starter may be due more to starting his career with an expansion franchise and finding himself in Oakland and Tennessee during down times for both those teams. Collins had one of his best seasons in 2010, throwing for 1,823 yards with 14 touchdowns and eight interceptions with an 82.2 passer rating. He has no problem recalling his best memory or his lowest low during 16 NFL seasons. His high came in January 2001 when he threw for a career-high 381 yards and five touchdowns in helping the Giants beat the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC championship game. “That was really special,” Collins said of a day where everything went right. The low is just as easy to find in the day Carolina released him in 1998 after he had started four games for the Panthers. Collins was struggling with alcohol and off-field issues, and he said he is most proud of how he responded to that situation. The key was deciding he wanted people to think of him not for the drinking and off-field troubles but for being a professional who respected the game. “Really at the end of the day, that’s what I wanted people to think about. Not only for them and the outside world but myself as well,” Collins said.

ing at this level for the first time for a lot of kids, playing a team that experienced certainly made a difference in the game.” Back Mountain took a brief 1-0 lead in the first inning after Mason Gattuso scored on a passed ball. In the next three innings, however, Back Mountain’s offense sputtered while Warwick’s heated up. Eight of Warwick’s 10 batters on the game had a hit. Mike Ferrara hit a line drive into left field to drive in a run in the second inning to make it a 5-1 game. In the third, Warwick piled on three more runs with a sacrifice fly by Brian Gozdan and a single to increase the lead to 8-1. “They’re the defending state champs for a reason,” Doggett said. “They were better than us today. I was proud of the way our guys played, but I believe we’re going to learn from this and we’re going to move on and we’re going to come out tomorrow ready to play. I was very proud of our guys, but lets face facts, that was a better team today and at 10-5, (we) could have folded up the tent but didn’t." Back Mountain’s comeback brought the team within four runs late in the game.

In the fourth inning, Ethan Zawatski safely reached base on an error before coming around to score a few batters later. Warwick was blanked in the fourth, as Back Mountain responded with two more runs in the fifth thanks to John Betzko to make it an 8-4 game. Michael Doggett then hit a

home run to center field in the sixth to score Back Mountain’s final run. Warwick’s pitching staff is ultimately what kept Back Mountain’s offense from coming all the way back. Warwick used four different pitchers and they were able to keep Back Mountain’s bats under control for the most part. Back Mountain ended the game with just four hits, with the first one coming in the fourth inning on a single by Darren Kerdesky. “I think they got a sense as to

how the game was going to go, and you’ve got to roll the dice,” Doggett said. “There’s no sense in burning him in a game that you think you can pull out using maybe your second, third, fourth guy. “The priority became for us to get as many guys as we could on the mound to get that first one out of the way just to get the experience. Now we’ve got five kids that have pitched in a game at the state level. That’s a building block, we’re going to use that."

ed by his failure to get away. “I felt good, and you’ve got to try,” he said. He didn’t want to talk about the stages to come. Boasson Hagen recorded his second stage win and the fourth overall for Norway in this year’s race. “It was very difficult yesterday, and today I was able to do better,” Boasson Hagen said. “I felt I was capable of attacking on the last climb.” Mollema was second after Frenchman Jonathan Hivert crashed on the perilous final descent of the Pramartino. Hivert got back on his bike and came in ninth. Boasson Hagen praised the large contingent of Norwegian fans that has been supporting him and Hushovd throughout the race. “It’s really great to see all the Norwegian flags and Norwegian people around the course.

PINEROLO, Italy — Edvald Boasson Hagen of Norway won the 17th stage of the Tour de France on Wednesday, the first of three days in the Alps, while Thomas Voeckler retained the yellow jersey but lost time after riding off course on the final descent. Defending champion Alberto Contador made repeated attempts to get away from his rivals, but was caught on each occasion. He finished in the same time as Cadel Evans, the Schleck brothers and Samuel Sanchez. Voeckler lost 27 seconds and is 1 minute, 18 seconds ahead of Evans. The 2010 Giro d’Italia champion Ivan Basso also lost time. Boasson Hagen completed the 111 miles across the Alps from Gap to the Italian town of Pinerolo in 4 hours, 18 minutes. Bauke Mollema of the Nether-

lands was second, 40 seconds back, with Sandy Casar of France winning the sprint for third. Voeckler went too fast on a hairpin turn, skidded onto the shoulder of the forested Alpine road, then raced back to try to catch Contador and Sanchez after they sped by. “It’s a pity, because I saw that Contador, Evans and the Schlecks finished together. If I’d taken fewer risks, I would have finished with them,” he said. The high-speed pursuit led to another mishap in which he jumped a curb, rolled into a small car park and almost crashed. “It was a fraction of a second, but it seemed like an eternity. I closed my eyes and lifted the front wheel and when I opened my eyes, I was still on the bike,” Voeckler said. “So I said, ‘OK, here we go: U-turn and back to the race.’ ” Contador was not downheart-

Yankees, Mitchell take down Clippers

Ex-Jets DT announces retirement

By JARROD ULREY For the Times Leader

COLUMBUS, Ohio — The Yankees finally put together a big inning early on and got the pitching to back it up Wednesday night in Huntington Park. Behind the cushion of a fourrun third inning, pitcher D.J. Mitchell gave up just one run on four hits and struck out nine in seven innings as Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre beat Columbus 6-1 in the third game of the series. The victory snapped a fourgame skid for the Yankees, who have lost six of their last eight overall. The only run Mitchell allowed was in the sixth inning when the Clippers put together three singles. Mitchell also went seven innings during each of his first two July starts and has improved his record to 7-7. “For the most part I was able to get ahead of hitters and throw good pitches down in the zone,” Mitchell said. “It’s great any time your team can come out and swing the bats well early. It felt great. I’ve just been trying to attack hitters and trying to build from there.” The Yankees took a 1-0 lead in the first when Greg Golson scored on a sacrifice fly by Jesus Montero off Clippers starter and eventual losing pitcher Corey Kluber. In the third, Luis Nunez led off with a single and moved to third on a single by Kevin Russo. Golson then walked and Montero came through again, this time with a two-run single off the wall in right. After Kluber got Mike Lamb to fly out, Jorge Vazquez made it 5-0 with a two-run double. “It’s always good to score runs early,” Russo said. “It was hot out there. We were sweating from warm-ups until the end of the game tonight.” Like the Yankees, Montero had been struggling on the current road trip entering the game. After being voted an International League all-star, he was just 3 for his last 18 before driving in three runs Wednesday night. Lamb opened the eighth with a solo home run for the game’s final run.

YANKEES

Kris Jenkins had planned to return from an ACL injury but will call it quits instead.

CLIPPERS

J.C. Romero pitched a scoreless eighth inning and Logan Kensing gave up one hit and one walk but struck out two during a scoreless ninth to seal the win. Russo got singles in each of his first three at bats, walked his fourth time at the plate and reached on an error in the ninth. All but two starters had a hit. SERIES FINALE The Yankees will complete the four-game series in Columbus at 12:05 p.m. today when right-hander Lance Pendleton (2-3, 3.21) faces Justin Germano (0-1, 3.99). A win would salvage a split of the series. “It would be great to do that, but every win right now is big for us,” Russo said. “We’re just trying to look at it day to day and get as many wins as we can.” HELP ON THE WAY Ivan Nova was placed on the seven-day disabled list after leaving Tuesday night’s game in the second inning with an ankle injury. Right-hander Josh Schmidt was called up from Double-A Trenton to take his place. In addition before Wednesday’s game, catcher P.J. Pilittere was activated from the sevenday DL.

Woods gets rid of Steve Williams as a caddie JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) — Tiger Woods fired caddie Steve Williams on Wednesday, ending a 12-year relationship in which he won 72 times worldwide and 13 majors. “I want to express my deepest gratitude to Stevie for all his help, but I think it’s time for a change,” Woods said on his website. “Stevie is an outstanding caddie and a friend and has been instrumental in many of my accomplishments.

I wish him great success in the future.” Woods did not say who would replace Williams, or when he would return to golf. Williams, who previously worked for Raymond Floyd and Greg Norman, had worked the last three tournaments with Adam Scott. That included the last two majors, which Woods skipped while trying to recover from injuries to his left leg.

picked up the win in the first game going five innings, allowing four runs and striking out eight. Then he came back in the nightcap and lasted four innings giving up four hits while fanning three and not allowing any earned runs. Both runs scored off of him came across on an error. “Me coming in, I hadn’t faced them this year and I was fired up,” Grillini said. “I knew I could shut them down – I just didn’t get the opportunity yet. And to do that was one of the greatest feelings ever.” As the temperature soared into the 90s at Central Columbia High School, the bats for Plains (21-9) were just as hot, pounding out 34 total hits – 17 in each game. While everyone chipped in offensively, Jim Graziosi netted the biggest numbers, going 3-for-5 in the opener with a home run and six RBI. In the second game, he added three more hits with a pair of doubles. In the opener, Plains built a14-1 lead and led 14-4 after five innings. But since the 10-run rule doesn’t apply until the seventh inning in regional and state play, Back Mountain had time to inch closer and avoid an early finish. Back Mountain, which finishes its season at 23-6, did mount a comeback. The team put up four more runs in the bottom of the sixth to make the game competitive and cut the lead to 14-8. Plains outscored Back Mountain 8-4 in the final three innings to turn the contest into a blowout again and give the team momentum heading into the nightcap. “We had a lot of fire burning in us. They came out really flat-footed and a little bit over-confident in the first game and we scored a lot of runs,” Graziosi said. “Then the second game, we got to them after the first inning and we knew we had them beat.” The energy for Plains continued into the second game even

NEW YORK — Kris Jenkins was prepared to attempt yet another comeback. And, he dared anyone to doubt that he’d be able to pull it off. But after a career filled with dominant moments and frustrating injuries, the big and charismatic defensive tackle decided his body had been through enough. Jenkins announced his retirement on his Facebook page Wednesday after his last two sea- Jenkins sons with the New York Jets were cut short by serious knee injuries. “Wanted to let you all know that I have loved the support and respect that you all have given me throughout my career,” Jenkins wrote. “But it is time for the torch to be passed to the younger players. I am going to hang up the cleats!” Jenkins, who’ll be 32 on Aug. 3, was released by the Jets in a cost-cutting move in February, but said at the time he still wanted to play. He continued his rehabilitation from his latest knee injury throughout the NFL lockout, and said he would be interested in playing for a team that played its home games on natural grass to help protect his knees. In the end, the four-time Pro Bowl selection chose to focus on life after football. “The mind is always willing to play, but my body deserves the rest,” Jenkins wrote. “Thank you for the opportunities to play, Carolina and New York.” The 6-foot-5, 360-pound Jenkins tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his surgically repaired left knee in the team’s opener against Baltimore. A few weeks later, Jenkins — an entertaining presence in the Jets’ locker room — announced he was going to try to come back again: “One, Yes I will wear knee braces,” he wrote, “2, I don’t care who disagrees; 3, I am crazy enough to pull it off!!!!!” The 10-year veteran tore the same ACL midway through the 2009 season, and missed 25 regular-season games the last two years. He also tore the ACL in his right knee in 2005 while with Carolina. Sione Pouha played well in Jenkins’ place the last two seasons, and it appeared the Jets were moving on without their big run-stuffing presence when they drafted nose tackle Kenrick Ellis in the third round. Ellis is expected to back up Pouha this season. Jenkins began his career with the Panthers in 2001 after they drafted him in the second round out of Maryland. He quickly became a dominant interior defensive lineman, and helped Carolina to the Super Bowl against New England in 2004. Jenkins missed most of the next season with a shoulder injury, but came back from that only to injure his right knee in the season opener.

CMYK A look at layoffs

Philip Morris International

Maybe the job market’s summer slowdown really was just temporary. Economists expect a report today to show that 400,000 people applied for unemployment benefits for the first time last week. That would be the lowest number in 15 weeks. The job market could use good news. The unemployment rate rose to 9.2 percent last month, its highest level since December.

People abroad keep smoking. Even though governments are raising taxes on cigarettes, and health advocates are pushing people to quit, profits for Philip Morris International keep rising. Analysts expect the seller of Marlboro and other brands overseas to report a 21 percent increase in second-quarter earnings per share today. Philip Morris International split with Altria Group, which sells Marlboros in the U.S., in 2008.

Traders await debt news

ne day after the Dow Jones industrial average had its best day this O year, the stock market edged lower on

Wednesday. Analysts say concerns about lifting the U.S. debt limit outweighed strong earnings from Apple and a slew of new corporate deals. “In this environment, stringing together a few days like (Tuesday) is going to be tough,” said Brad Sorensen, director of market analysis at Charles Schwab. News of record earnings and new deals would usually brighten investors’ mood, Sorenson said. In the current earnings season, for instance, some 75 percent of companies in the Standard & Poor’s 500 index have beaten analysts’ estimates. But larger worries about debt troubles in the U.S. and Europe are holding the market back.

The Luzerne County Convention Center Authority board voted to award the contract to L.R. Costanzo of Scranton, the lowest bidder at $233,000. Costanzo beat out Champion Builders in Kingston, which bid $259,452, and Sordoni Construction Services in Forty Fort, which bid $260,610. The board also approved setting aside $10,000 for six televisions, a sound system and security cameras for the concourse-level bar that will spill out into the bowl of the arena. Arena Manager Rebecca Bonnevier said Marketing Director Steve Porem-

WHAT’S NEXT

The Luzerne County Convention Center Authority will meet next at noon on Aug. 9 at Mohegan Sun Arena.

ba has been talking with some companies that might provide equipment such as the televisions in trade for advertising. She also has received unsolicited proposals for sponsorships of the bar, which could help pay for a large chunk of construction costs. In her report, Bonnevier said the arena saw dramatic savings on electricity and gas bills last year after the board approved using Taylor Consulting to purchase those utilities at a group rate. The arena had been paying $243,000 to $280,000 annually for gas, but last year paid just $158,000. Even though

the price of natural gas declined about 12 percent last year, according to the Marcellus Shale Coalition, the arena saw a savings of between 35 percent and 44 percent. And, while the cost of electricity was expected to double, the arena saw an increase only from about $485,000 in previous years to $497,000 in 2010. When it came time to pay the monthly bills, the board voted unanimously to approve a motion by director Jack George to pay all bills except one for $18,550 from Snyder & Clemente, the agency hired to perform the arena’s annual audit. “I was just thinking we could hold up a little bit. Maybe that would get the audit going a little bit faster. Sometimes, it’s taken a long time to get that audit. … Last time, it didn’t come out until November or so, didn’t it?” Ge-

orge said. In other business, the board approved: • A $3,838.75 payment to Aldrich & Cox, the insurance consultant. • Paying $5,700 to Johnson Controls to upgrade the computer system that manages alerts for fire and smoke alarms, heat, ventilation, air conditioning, boilers, etc. • Paying Friedman Electric $7,851 for a new variable frequency drive and motor for the cooling tower. The current motor runs only at high speed and getting a new one that runs at slower speeds will save electricity, said operations director Fred Paisley. • Buying four Cummins Jetscan currency counters that flag counterfeit bills and print reports at $2,338 each. • Having the Ansul fire suppression system serviced for $4,012.

Investors set aside housing market doldrums and rushed to grab shares of real estate website Zillow on Wednesday, valuing the company at as much as $1.6 billion. Zillow had set a price of $20 for its stock late Tuesday. The shares rose as high as $60 before closing at $35.57, valuing the Seattle-based company at about $1 billion. Founded in 2004, Zillow provides online listings for more than 100 million homes that are either for sale or for rent. The company reported a loss of $6.8 million last year on sales of $30.5 million.

People are buying homes at the weakest pace in 14 years. Sales of previously occupied homes fell in June for a third straight month to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.77 million, the National Association of Realtors said Wednesday. This year’s pace is lagging behind the 4.91 million homes sold last year — the fewest since 1997. In a healthy economy, people buy roughly 6 million homes per year. The median sales price rose in June to $184,300, according to the Realtors.

AT&T’s iPhone benefit is gone. When the nation’s largest telecom company reports its earnings today, investors will see the first full quarter of results where it had to compete with Verizon Wireless for iPhone customers. AT&T’s landline phone business also keeps getting weaker, and analysts expect it to report a dip in second-quarter earnings. Investors are also waiting to hear what updates AT&T will have on its pending $39 billion purchase of T-Mobile USA.

Boeing loses grip American Airlines buying 260 planes from Airbus and 200 from Boeing in $38 billion deal.

By DAVID KOENIG AP Airlines Writer

FORT WORTH, Texas — American Airlinesisbuyingatleast460newplanes over the next five years from Airbus and BoeinginarecordorderthatbreaksBoeing’s exclusive grip on American’s fleet. American said Wednesday it will buy 260 planes from Airbus, 200 from rival Boeing Co., and take options to buy hundreds more. It expects the new jets to provide much-needed savings in fuel

costs. American’s current fleet is among the least fuel-efficient in the industry. The deal is a major boost for Airbus, which hadn’t won an order from American since the 1980s. Boeing did salvage one of its biggest sales ever — a huge consolation considering that it was in danger of losing the whole order to its European rival. The jets carry a sticker price of more than $38 billion, although big airlines regularly get discounts and routinely play one aircraft maker off the other to get better deals. Analysts said American’s bold strike would put more pressure on other airlines with aging fleets to buy new planes too.

Gerard Arpey, the chairman and CEO of American’s parent, AMR Corp., sat between the leaders of Airbus and Boeing as he discussed the unusual deal at an airport news conference. He called it “a watershed event certainly for our company and indeed for the airline industry.” The announcement overshadowed the news that AMR lost $286 million in the second quarter, as rising fuel prices wiped out an increase in revenue. The loss equaled 85 cents per share. Wall Street was expecting a loss of 77 cents, according to FactSet. American expects to have the youngest fleet among similar U.S. airlines within five years.

WASHINGTON — The consumerprotection agency that was created in the wake of the financial crisis launches today lacking key powers that Congress had intended to give it. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau will begin this week to enforce dozens of rules that Congress lumped together as part of last year’s overhaul of financial regulations. It will help ensure that credit card holders have a clear understanding of the plastic in their wallets, borrowers are protected from unfair lending and military families have a dedicated financial watchdog. Yet without a confirmed director, the agency can’t write or enforce new rules for nonbank financial companies, which made about half of the riskiest subprime loans before the crisis. Republicans say they will block former Ohio Attorney General Richard Cordray or any other nominee until the power of the agency and its director are scaled back. They have introduced legislation that would replace the agency’s director with a five-person commission and give Congress more control over its budget. Banks are nervous that the agency’s rules will make it difficult to profit from some products. That would discourage them from developing new offerings that consumers might want, they say. Until Congress confirms Cordray or another director, Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner will serve as the agency’s acting director.

Charge for water? You bet! You might think that Spirit Airlines is one of 2011’s IPO disappointments. The low-cost airline was priced at $12 a share when it went public May 26, down from an expected $14 to $16. It’s trading at $13.39. But financial analysts like Spirit and CEO Ben Baldanza. He’s unapologetic about charging fees for almost everything from water to carry-on bags. Spirit was losing money until he became CEO in 2006. It has earned $190 million the last four years as many airlines struggled to stay alive. The airline has 150 daily flights to 49 destinations in the U.S., the Caribbean and Latin America. It has 35 planes and plans to expand to 68 by the end of 2015. Baldanza recently spoke with The Associated Press. These are excerpts from the interview: What happened in the initial public offering? The right price for anything is the price people will pay for it. There are a number of people who question why we would even try to IPO the airline in an environment of high fuel prices. Our view was we

higher fuel prices. Would it work at any fuel price? Well, I can’t say that. Because the density (number of passengers) of our airplanes is so high, we need to raise our ticket prices less than the rest of the industry. Between New York and Florida, for example, both we and JetBlue fly the A320 airplane. They put 150 seats on the plane, we put 178. If oil prices go up such that it costs $100 more in fuel to fly, JetBlue’s got to get that over 150 people, we’ve got to get it over 178. Do you see a merger or acquisition in Spirit’s future? It’s taken a lot of effort to convert Spirit into a winning model. We don’t see a lot of other winning models out there. So right now, we believe we have enormous growth potential to natively grow our airline.

BEN BALDANZA, SPIRIT AIRLINES CEO

have a strong company, we’ve made money each of the last four years, we made money in the first quarter, we have a resiliency and sustainability that many airlines don’t have.

What keeps you up at night? Big fuel price shocks, another 9/11 kind of event that changes the way people think about travel. ... I live with the ongoing recognition that you could wake up one morning and the world is just really different.

When will the price of oil make it impossible for Spirit to make money? Our business model works at

Story Stocks

A rally over hopes for a debt-limit deal turned into a waiting game for investors. One day after the Dow Jones industrial average had its best day this year, the stock market edged lower on Wednesday. Analysts say concerns about lifting the U.S. Altria Group MO Apple Close: $26.37 -0.65 or -2.4% The maker of Marlboro cigarettes said quarterly profit slid on lease charges, and its brands lost market share. $29 28

Close: $386.90 10.05 or 2.7% Surging sales of iPads and iPhones and strong growth in Asia helped quarterly net income more than double from a year ago. $400 350

debt limit outweighed strong earnings from Apple and a batch of new corporate deals. The Dow fell 15.51 points, or 0.1 percent, to close at 12,571.91. The S&P 500 index dropped 0.89 points to 1,325.84. AAPL Clorox CLX

Today may be end up being our hottest day of the summer. Indeed, the hottest air associated with the nation's heat wave this week will pass over Pennsylvania later this afternoon. The freezing level will rise to around 17,000 feet and street level readings will hover between 95 and 100. Today's record is 99. With the humidity factored in the Heat Index will rise to around 105 degrees today. At least we can factor in a warm, gusty breeze which may help just a little. With the warmer air aloft today, expect little or no chance for storms. The excessive heat will last through tomorrow and into the weekend with some relief arriving by Tuesday. - Tom Clark

Ken Kurita, of Videon Productions in Excelsior, Minn. tears up as he showed a video taken of his father, Dr. Kenji Kurita, who died in January. ’This is all about life’s treasured moments,’ Ken Kurita said.

By JEFF STRICKLER

MINNEAPOLIS — Shortly before Connie Dunlap died in October, she sat in front of a camera focused in a tight close-up and talked about her faith and how it shaped her battle against cancer. “Our legacy is usually money or property that we pass down to our children and grandchildren,” she says softly but earnestly. “But I think a legacy of faith and our life is much more valuable.” The Forest Lake, Minn., resident, who was 68, had called the Rev. Alan Naumann and asked him to record a farewell message to be shared with her family after her death. “It was important for her to know that her grandchildren, who were too young to remember her, would one day get to know her,” said Naumann, who also is a videographer. Memorial videos are the latest twist on the video slide shows of snapshots chronicling a life that are often shown at funerals. Aging baby boomers, completely comfortable in the medium of video, are using it not only to look back but also to leave a final message for the future. They share insights from their life and impart advice. Some are somber, others lighthearted. This new kind of video — sometimes called legacy or end-of-life videos — is becoming so popular that some funeral homes are being outfitted with video projection systems and churches that used to frown on them are embracing them.

Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

“Our legacy is usually money or property that we pass down to our children and grandchildren. But I think a legacy of faith and our life is much more valuable.” Connie Dunlap, In a video she made before her death in October

JUST DO IT While professional videographers would like you to hire them, many of them believe so strongly in the medium that they encourage people to do their own memorial video. “If you can’t afford to hire me, at least get a video camera, put it in front of Grandma and Grandpa and record them,” videographer Ken Kurita insisted. “Everyone has a story, and we need to get those stories now.” The Rev. Alan Naumann is gathering material for a class on do-it-yourself memorial videos. But don’t wait for that, he said. “I got a call the other day from a woman who said, ’My mother just turned 90. When do you think I should start recording her story?’” he recalled. “And I said, ‘How about yesterday?’ ”

Once you’ve seen one of the videos, advocates say, you’ll understand why. “The emotional impact of these is so powerful,” said Ken Kurita, owner of Videon Productions in Excelsior, Minn., who made a memorial video for his father’s recent funeral. “Which memory would you rather take with you (from a funeral): the lifeless body lying in a casket, or the living, breathing person you loved, complete with all their mannerisms, their smile, their sense of humor?” Kurita’s father, who died in January at age 83, used his video to recall boyhood anecdotes and even worked in a little humor. “That was my dad,” Kurita said, tearing up slightly as he watched the video in his editing booth. “This is all about life’s treasured moments.” Sometimes, even the videographers are moved by the result. Mike Madden from Moviescreen Films in St. Paul, Minn., was recording a wedding when he coaxed the camera-shy father of the bride to sit down and give a 3-minute interview. The man died unexpectedly three weeks later. His daughter “told me that 3-minute interview is one of the most precious things she has,” he said. While the number of videos being shown at funerals is on the rise, just wait a decade, Naumann said. A lot of the work he does now involves people who want to get their stories on See LEGACY, Page 2C

Cancer can pave way to a fuller life By NEAL ST. ANTHONY Star Tribune (Minneapolis)

MINNEAPOLIS — On Christmas Eve morning in 2009, business owner Deborah Delaney was pulling the cinnamon rolls from the oven in her well-appointed Wayzata, Minn., home and worrying about preparations for her guests arriving for that evening’s festivities. At that moment, the phone rang with news that would change her life, ultimately for the better. “I want you to know that your (breast) biopsy came back as cancerous,” a nurse told Delaney. After a few moments of conversation, Delaney, a youthful 53-yearold, returned the phone to the receiver. “I’m going to die,” she thought. “Then I composed myself and thought, ‘I have to get this thing out of me,’ ” Delaney recalled.

then I said, ‘Come on, we’ve got all this cooking to do.’ ” In her heart, Delaney, a confident saleswoman and manager who had made more than $250,000 annually during the1990s in the telecommunications business, was shaken by the prospect of months of treatment and her own mortality. In January 2010, the cancer was removed. She underwent chemotherapy and radiation over several months and got a positive prognosis: There’s a 95 percent probability that she’ll live at least another 15 MCT PHOTO years.

MIAMI — When Vicki Brail divorced her husband of 20 years, the Kendall, Fla., mother of two assumed hernextpartnerwouldbemale.Then she met psychotherapist Jeanne Covert. “It was very strange to say the least. I started having this flirtatious relationshipwithher,”recalledBrail,now 65. “All my friends said this is very exciting. I used to see my friends for lunch and they would say it was like we were 16. I assumed this would be some midlife-crisis affair. We’ve been together since1992.” Brail’sstory,alongwithmanyother older gays and lesbians, closely mirrors the film “Beginners.” Christopher Plummer stars as a 75-year-old father newly out of the closet, to the confusion of his grown son, played by Ewan McGregor. Brail, who owns a geriatric and catastrophic-care management company, said she never was sexually attracted to women until meeting Covert, now 61. At times, Brail found it difficult being involved with a woman. “Wehadthingstoworkout.Itwasn’t a natural flow. Role models were very difficult,” Brail said. “Gender household responsibilities were very hard to work out. I had assumptions what women should do in the home and she had assumptions, and they were not the same. I never thought that straight women and gay women had such a diverse view of the world.” Anotherissuewhenthewomenmet: Brail had two pre-teens living with her, Dori , now 31, and Isaac , now 29. “In the age that we came together, most lesbians did not have children,” Brail said. The family eventually bonded. In 1999, Dori and Isaac convinced Brail and Covert to marry in a religious ceremony at their Reconstruction Jewish synagogue, Temple Beth Or. “Our children pushed us because everyone else’s parents were married and they wanted their parents to be married,” Brail said. “And we had a big Jewish wedding with chuppahs.” Retired Philadelphia pediatrician JohnSiegfriedandpartnerHowardApperman, now both living in Fort Lauderdale, have been together since1991. On Father’s Day 1977, Siegfried and his then-wife, Sybil, sat down with their three teenage children and told them the truth: Dad was gay. “It was Father’s Day and Gay Pride Day,” Siegfried said. “They were aware that I had always supported minority causes. I told them, when we were having breakfast, that I was minority, too. My son David , trying to be a smart ass, said, ‘I know dad, you’d rather be down at Belmont (Plaza) at the gay-pride parade.’ I said, ‘That’s exactly right. It’s what I’m trying to tell you.’ And then I told them that if I can’t be honest with you, how could I expect you to be honest with me? Immediately there was justtotalsilence.Thenmydaughterbegan to get a little bit weepy-eyed. Each of the kids did.

HOW MUCH WILL IT COST?

LEGACY Continued from Page 1C

The cost of a memorial video varies tremendously. Prices start as low as $200 for an electronic photo album to as much as $20,000 for one with exclusive music and interviews with relatives and friends. But a typical video consisting of an interview with the subject costs $1,000 to $2,000.

record while they’re still sharp in their minds. “We’re shooting stuff that we’ll have on file for years” before it’s needed for memorials, he said. Naumann, who is credited with making one of the earliest memorial videos in 1988, said it came out of his dual background. In addition to being a minister, he’s the owner of Minneapolis-based Memory Vision. In the late ’80s, he was serving as the chaplain at Hillside Cemetery in northeast Minneapolis. He bought a video camera and started experimenting with it. One of those experi-

ments was a video biography, and when he showed part of it at the subject’s funeral, he knew immediately that he was onto something special. “It was overwhelming,” he said. Still, memorial videos didn’t catch on right away. For one thing, editing video was a laborious task because the tapes couldn’t be cut and spliced like film. It wasn’t until the digital revolution enabled editors to use a computer to mimic film editing that the memorials started to gain popularity. It also took persuading to get

some churches to allow them. Naumann made a video about a Roman Catholic nun, only to have her parish priest reject the idea as conflicting with the solemnity of the funeral Mass. “I called him up, clergy to clergy, and explained how the video was going to show all the wonderful things this woman did to help people,” he said. “He finally agreed to let us show it. He was so impressed by the video that after the funeral, he started showing it to other groups. He became its biggest supporter.”

first Twin Cities “SarahCare” franchise. The business provides adult day and chronic-care management for about a third to half the price of a full-time nursing home. The service offers at-home care providers a break and works with clients through nurses, nursing assistants, therapists and others to help patients lead as full a life as possible. Delaney chose SarahCare, because she had dropped out of college so that she could care for her ailing mother — while also working a full-time job. And Delaney’s market research showed that elder care was a boom market. Her illness only increased the hard-charging Delaney’s passion for her business, her customers, their families and her staff. “I had become a vulnerable adult,” she said. “I needed help ... I get it now. I’m softer, more empathetic. People mean more to me.” Delaney was changed by a process that began every other Thursday for several months that began with nurses filling two large syringes with cancer-killing toxins, known as “Red Devils,” after donning protective garb so they wouldn’t be burned if anything spills. “’Oh my God,’ ” Delaney recalled thinking as the needles penetrated her skin. “Your head gets loaded with a terrible weight. You’re very tired. It’s called ‘chemo brain.’ I’d be wiped

out through Monday. Then I’d go to work. I’d try to hide the fear and pain. But I’d lose my memory. I couldn’t remember the names of people. Or where I put my keys, even though they were on the same corner of the desk as usual.” There also was financial stress. It took until 2008 for SarahCare to break even. Delaney had to invest more than she had projected. She refinanced her Wayzata dream house, valued at $1.2 million in 2006, to pay down business-related debt. The monthly payment rose from $3,000 to $8,000. And her husband lost his job before Delaney got sick. Still, Delaney could not stop marveling at what she regarded as her good fortune. The love and generosity of her family, close friends and staff buoyed her spirits. She cut her CEO salary to $50,000 to save money. And she grew closer to her husband and prouder of her college-educated daughters, one of whom works at SarahCare. The busy staff, including nurs-

ing assistants who make $12 to $14 an hour, always had time to inquire about the boss’ health and what they could do. Even though it was expensive, Delaney was grateful that she was able to provide health insurance to employees. “Who knows when one of them could discover cancer, have a stroke or fall and hit their head,” Delaney said. “It can happen to anyone.” As Delaney’s health improved this year and her memory and energy returned, she and Dale made some life-enhancing decisions. They sold the expensive speedboat, gave away possessions that didn’t matter anymore and put the big house up for sale. “I’ve got a second chance,” Delaney said. “Now, I don’t need the big house, the boat and all those things that used to mean a lot to me. I still need to make a living. But it’s more about what I can do to help others. I’m more reflective. My reward is helping struggling families.”

“I remember it crystal clear. Always have. I expect my brothers do,too,”shesaid.“Itwasadaythat things shifted. I actually had suspicions that my dad was gay, so it wasn’t startling by any means. It was confirmation.” Kathy said her parents struggled in their marriage, and now she knew why. “Every few years, they’d go through this circle: They’d separate, they were going to get divorced, they were back in the marriage again.” John Siegfried said Sybil knew he had same-sex attractions when they wed, but the couple both wanted a traditional, happily-everafter romance. “I suppressed my sexuality and occasionallyhadaone-nightstand if I had a medical meeting. I was never active homosexually in my own community. I just couldn’t take that risk. It would have been suicide in your practice to say ‘I’m

your gay pediatrician.’ ” Throughout the marriage, Siegfried had occasional same-sex flings. “There had been three episodes that rocked my marriage when I was emotionally involved with another man. My wife knew about it each time. I assumed she looked theotherwayforthesamereasons I did. She wanted to maintain a family image as I did and maintain her position in the community.” Finally, after 35 years, the couple divorced. Sybil, who never remarried, died of pancreatic cancer five years ago. In 1991, after attending a meeting of the GAMMA, the Gay Married Men’s Association, during a trip to Washington, Siegfried, then 61, went to a gay bar and met Apperman, then 40. In May, the couple celebrated 20 years together. Hank Brooks, 81, and Leo Glickstein, 89, of Coconut Creek, Fla., have been a couple for about nine years. Both had unhappy marriages to women and have five grown children between them. Brooks, now Broward chapter treasurer of SAGE, Services & Ad-

vocacy for GLBT Elders, said being gay “was a terrible stigma in my day.” He was 70 when he got a computer and started checking out gay chat rooms. “Once I experienced sex with this guy I met online, there was no turning back. I’ve been extremely happy.” Ayearlater,Brooksdivorcedhis wife. “I just left her a note and left. It was the only way I could get out of the house. She would have talked me out of it.” Glickstein and his wife never divorced. Brooks said Glickstein didn’t struggle the way he did. “He slept with men before he got married, while he was married and after he was married,” Brooks said. “I just yearned all those years. Even during my honeymoon, I was looking at those guys in the pool.” The couple met after Glickstein’s wife died. “It was just after Leo had his 80th birthday,” Brooks said. “I didn’t believe him. The first night we were together there was no stopping him.”

THURSDAY, JULY 21, 2011 PAGE 5C

Dessert conversation adds a sour ending to dinners with girlfriends Dear Abby: When I go out to eat with my girlfriends, I usually enjoy myself until it comes time for dessert. Then I get grief if I don’t order any and they do. They’ll say, “Oh, you’re so tiny. You can eat it.” Conversely, if I do order something, they tell me, “Well, I’d love some but my metabolism isn’t as high as yours.” I have never made comments to them about calorie counting, needing to work out or concern about my weight. I feel fitness is a private matter, and I’m not comfortable with mine being the topic of discussion. Is there any way to respectfully and tactfully respond to their comments

DEAR ABBY ADVICE or redirect the conversation? — Takes the Cake in Flagstaff, Ariz. Dear Takes The Cake: The way you said it in your letter is perfect: “I feel fitness is a private matter and I’m not comfortable with mine being the topic of discussion.” Either state it when they comment on what you have ordered, or say it privately to each of your friends when you’re away from a restaurant. Dear Abby: Is it weird to not want to sleep in the same bed with my husband? We have an amazing, caring,

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

fun relationship — but when it comes to sleep, I need my space while he prefers to cuddle all night. I always end up trying to push him over to his side, or telling him to please move. When I’m in bed with him I hardly get any sleep! He’s always on my side and I can’t move. It bothers me so much I end up sleeping on the couch. Is this a bad sign for our marriage? Should I just stick it out for his sake? Our marriage is pretty close to perfect except for this one thing. — Needs My Space in West Valley, Utah Dear Needs Your Space: If you haven’t already done it, you and your husband should have a calm discussion about this when you’re both wide awake and rested. Sleep deprivation

CRYPTOQUOTE

can cause any number of problems — slow reaction time behind the wheel of a car, inefficiency at work, and serious health problems. If your marriage is amazing, caring, fun and sexually satisfying, then sleeping separately isn’t a “bad sign.” It’s the solution. Dear Abby: I am a 54-year-old woman who, after a long marriage and unavoidable divorce, is ready to date. I work out daily, am active in my church, take classes, and socialize with women and married couples. I’m in excellent shape and am told I’m attractive and fun. There are few available men my age (or a little younger or older) and almost all of them seem to be looking for women in their 40s, 30s or even 20s. Why are men my age so unwilling

to date women their age? — Missing Out in Wyoming Dear Missing Out: I can’t speak for “all” older men, but many of them in our youth-obsessed culture look for women considerably younger because it helps them fool themselves into thinking they are younger than their years. You are physically, socially and intellectually active, so consider dating men who are younger. It worked for Demi Moore. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You may wake up in a lazy, unfocused mood, but you can prevent this from occurring two days in a row. Write a concrete plan for tomorrow, and you’ll wake up in the right frame of mind for major productivity. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Unchecked speech causes problems. Thoughtlessness is dangerous, and so is a distracted mind. Do what you have to do to get centered before you express yourself. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). When you are truly a newcomer to a scene, you need things broken down to the most basic elements. Ask questions. Anyone who makes you feel silly for doing so is the wrong teacher for you. CANCER (June 22-July 22). As any good dancer knows, opposing sides can still cooperate with each other. When they do, the result can be more interesting than what comes from people cooperating with others who are already on the same side. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Even when something is completely unfamiliar to you, you are still able to open your mind to the possibility that it exists somewhere in the universe. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). You’re interested in a bigger income because it will allow you more choices. Instead of desiring money, shift your focus. It will make you wealthier when you desire to provide a great value to others. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You don’t have to make drastic changes to improve the quality of your

life in a big way. You’ll de-clutter some small part of your world — like a drawer or closet — and it will be the gesture that brings good fortune to you. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). All the things you should do seem even more boring, tedious and ordinary than the things you have to do. So you’ll likely rebel and do only what you really want to do. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Sometimes familiarity makes it harder for you to see someone how he or she really is. You compensate for this by actively looking for something positive about a loved one. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You’ll take an artistic approach to your daily business. For instance, you arrange your table like you’re going to paint a stilllife picture of it. You’ll bask in appreciation tonight. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). It’s hard to say why exactly, but your self-improvement efforts may annoy other people. You’re better off keeping it on the down low for now, except with your most supportive loved ones. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). There’s a situation that is just getting old to you. You won’t have to make a move to change the game, though. This will happen naturally. The problem will disappear. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (July 21). A free and easygoing feeling permeates your personal atmosphere. Obstacles are lifted in August. November kicks off a series of accomplishments. Capricorn and Pisces people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 50, 7, 28, 49 and 16.
