Victims GOP’s divisions on display helped despite scandal DEBT SHOWDOWN

House vote is put off after debate on bill to cut deficits, raise debt limit is stopped

By DAVID ESPO AP Special Correspondent

INSIDE: Barletta, Marino give their take on debt debate, Page 12A

WASHINGTON — An intense endgame at hand, House Republican leaders put off a vote Thursday night on legislation to avert a threatened government default and slice federal spending by nearly $1 trillion. GOP leaders announced their decision after abruptly halting debate on the legislation and plunging into an intensive round

of meetings with rebellious conservatives. The decision created fresh turmoil as a divided government struggled to head off a default threatened after next Tuesday that would leave the Treasury without the funds needed to pay all its bills.

As the evening slipped by, the White House poked fun at Republicans led by Speaker John Boehner, who has become President Barack Obama’s principal antagonist in a contentious era of divided government. And Senate Democrats pledged to scuttle the measure — if it ever got to them — to force a final compromise. Boehner summoned a string of Republican critics of the bill to

his office. Asked what he and the speaker had talked about, Rep. Jeff Flake, R-Ariz., said, “I think that’s rather obvious. ... There’s negotiations going on.” Based on public statements by lawmakers themselves, it appeared that five of some two dozen holdouts were from South Carolina.

A newer, glitzier Moon Lake envisioned An architect outlines some ideas for restoring the county-owned park.

By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

“I’m going to throw some ideas out. You tell me if they are crazy or not,” Hagopian told the 40 area residents gathered at the county Emergency Management Agency building in WilkesBarre. Most of the group seemed intrigued. Many of the ideas suggested to that point were traditional, such as adding soccer fields and ice skating, and restoring camping and swimming. To be successful, the park also needs some progressive activities that appeal to all ages and PETE G.

was among 40 Luzerne County residents who shared ideas about Moon Lake Park at a meeting Thursday.

James Filipowicz had resigned himself to the belief he’d never get full restitution for the damage a teenage boy did several years ago to a rental home he owned. The youth, who was among thousands of juveniles whose convictions were vacated in response to the Luzerne County juvenile justice scandal, stopped paying shortly after the state Supreme Court order erasing his conviction came down. “After the ‘kids for cash’ thing came out, the payments stopped. I thought it was Grim over,” Filipowicz said. On Thursday, Filipowicz got a pleasant surprise: The state Supreme Court approved more than Musto Carroll $65,000 in payments to Filipowicz and 109 other Luzerne County residents who were still owed money from juveniles. Filipowicz, who was approved for $1,500, and the others are the benefactors of a Special Juvenile Victim Compensation Fund established by the state legislature last year. The $500,000 fund was created to ensure those who were victimized by juveniles were not penalized by the Supreme Court’s 2009 ruling that vacated the convictions of all juveniles who appeared before former Judge Mark Ciavarella from 2003 to 2008. The court’s ruling was based on evidence Ciavarella, who was found guilty in February of accepting kickbacks from the builder of two juvenile detention centers the county utilized, had violated their constitutional rights. Once the convictions were vacated, so, too, were restitution orders. See FUND, Page 12A

Data error, not cheating, likely problem at Hazleton Area Three schools could still have been suspected for anomalies on state tests. By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

09815 10011

HAZLETON – A review of previously unseen data used to ferret out potential cheating on state tests suggests Hazleton Area officials were right: Many district

schools likely were implicated because of a data error that dramatically skewed results. But even ignoring that error – which involved the percentage of economically disadvantaged students taking the math and reading tests – at least three Hazleton Area schools would still have come under suspicion for other statistical anomalies. The district already has concluded a state-mandated investi-

gation into the matter, and believes it has explanations for those cases as well. The “Data Antonelli Forensic Analysis Report” attempted to unearth potential cheating through complex statistical scrutiny, though the report repeatedly stressed such an anal-

ysis could not prove cheating occurred. The report had concluded there was enough evidence to include six Hazleton Area schools -- and one each in Scranton, Abington Heights and Berwick Area school districts -- in a list of 89 statewide as potential cheats. State Secretary of Education Ron Tomalis ordered all suspect districts to conduct and conclude an investigation by mid-August.

Those investigations involved a close look at data used in making the report, but not included in it. Local investigation On Thursday, Hazleton Area Deputy Superintendent Francis X. Antonelli said the district put together a team of eight people who “spent four solid days” sifting through the data. See ERROR, Page 12A

WILKES-BARRE – A Mahanoy City man was sentenced Wednesday to three to six years in state prison on charges he brutally assaulted a man outside a Hazleton laundromat with a crowbar. Carl Joseph Smith II, 23, was sentenced on charges of aggravated assault, simple assault and reckless endangerment by Luzerne County Senior Judge Joseph Augello. Smith was charged in July 2010 after Hazleton police say he assaulted Louis Bianco outside the Brite-Way Laundry Mat on South Vine Street, resulting in Bianco having to receive staples to close a wound on the back of his head. Smith, represented by attorney Ed Olexa, received 365 days credit for time already served in prison and is to have no contact with Bianco. He pleaded guilty to the charges in June.

to the South Vine Street business for the report of an assault. When police arrived, they saw Bianco lying on the ground next to a vehicle with a large laceration on the back of his head and bleeding profusely. Bianco’s girlfriend, Kayla Fisher, told police Smith had been harassing the couple and followed them to the nearby tanning salon. Fisher said Smith began hitting Bianco in the head, arms and back with a crowbar. Some messages Smith sent to Fisher, police said, stated Smith would continue to assault Bianco every time he saw him, and that if he had a gun, he would have killed Bianco. Police said Bianco was treated at Hazleton General Hospital for his injuries, including lacerations and bruises on his head, chest, back, arms and legs, and he received six staples to close a wound on the back of his head. Smith was ordered to pay $3,675 in restitution to Bianco.

Corbett signs law keeping filing fees The Reading Eagle

Gov. Tom Corbett signed into law Wednesday a bill introduced by a Reading lawmaker that will keep district and municipal courts’ filing fees the same through 2014. The bill from state Rep. Thomas R. Caltagirone, a Democrat and House judiciary committee minority chairman, was signed at a reception in Harrisburg. The fees were due to expire in November and have now been extended to Dec. 31, 2014. Caltagirone didn’t want the fees to increase but also recognized the need to fund courts, said Christopher M. Winters, Caltagirone’s assistant.

“When the Legislature originally enacted the funding stream, we were hopeful that the economy would have recovered by now, and that it would no longer be necessary,” Caltagirone said in a press release. “Unfortunately, the economy hasn’t quite regained its strength and the court system needs this funding for a few more months while the economy recovers. We all understood that an extension was necessary to keeping courts open for business to enforce our laws.” This was the first Democraticsponsored bill that Corbett has signed into law, Winters said.

Man dead after area standoff The Associated Press

Gayle Davenport is consoled at the scene of a fire that damaged her apartment Thursday at the corner of Susquehanna Avenue and Eighth Street in Wyoming. Davenport said her landlord called to tell her of the fire and was able to evacuate two dogs from her apartment. Firefighters rescued a cat. One of the dogs was Lola, next to Davenport, a Cane Corso that belongs to her son, Mark. Another resident of the building, Charissa Colbert, said a woman who saw the smoke banged on the doors and yelled for people to get out of the building. ‘It was a light fixture at the top of the attic stairs,’ said Colbert as the cause of the fire. The attic area sustained fire damage and the two lower floors had smoke and water damage. Wyoming Assistant Fire Chief Mike Nocera said the cause is under investigation and state police fire marshal would be called in. The American Red Cross was assisting the residents with emergency housing. The Eighth Street Bridge over the Susquehanna River was temporarily closed during the fire. Firefighters from Wyoming, West Wyoming, Exeter, West Pittston, Swoyersville and Hughestown responded to the call around 4 p.m.

Car in Fairview Twp. crash released One-car crash July 18 resulted in death of Brian Madry, 16, a Crestwood Area student. By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

FAIRVIEW TWP. – Police on Thursday released the vehicle involved in a one-car crash that killed 16-year-old Brian Madry in the early morning hours of July 18. The vehicle, a 2004 Kia Optima, was towed Thursday afternoon from the Fairview Township Police Department by Ayers Towing to the tower’s lot in Mountain Top. Police Chief Joe Intelicato said the vehicle would presumably be released to its owner’s insurance company. Police have not released the name of the driver or the owner of the vehicle. Authorities have previously indicated that the driver of the vehicle was another 16-year-old boy and that alcohol may have played a role in the crash. No charges have been filed. Intelicato said investigation into the crash is continuing, but police have no new information to release at this time. Police are still awaiting the results of an accident reconstruction and toxicology screenings, he said. Madry, of Mountain Top, died

burdening taxpayers, he said. Hagopian said his children believe rock climbing is the “cat’s meow” and got him to enjoy the sport. A zip line would work well at the Plymouth Township park because of the topography, he said. Riders would fasten into a harness or seat and ride the line at a high speed, slowing as the line levels out at a platform at the end. Zip lines are growing in popularity. The meeting was called to prepare a master plan required to obtain future government grants for the park. Another public meeting will be held in the future to summarize possible improvements and their estimated costs. The state may cover 50 percent of the cost of recreational improvements at the facility once the master plan is completed, though it will be up to the county to fund maintenance, a state official said.

LOCAL New Osterhout boss has vision Richard Miller, from Berwick’s McBride Memorial, says libraries must adapt to patrons’ needs.

WILKES-BARRE – The Osterhout Free Library board of directors has hired Richard Miller to serve as the library’s executive director – only the ninth person to hold that position in the establishment’s 122-year history. Miller, 37, currently serves as the director of library services at the McBride

Neighbors file lawsuit challenging pipeline OK

Memorial Library in Berwick, where he’s worked the past 11 years. The Salem Township resident said the opportunity to lead a larger library was too good to pass Miller up. As part of his new duties, which will begin in early September, he’ll also serve as administrator of the Luzerne County Library System and the WilkesBarre Library District. He replaces Sara D. Hansen, who took a job as director of the Old Bridge Public

Library in Old Bridge, N.J., after leaving the Osterhout in February. His salary and length of contract are still being negotiated but he said he anticipates making more than his current salary, which he said “is in the low” $30,000 range. The position was posted regionally and statewide, and the board focused on finding someone with a patron-oriented approach. “The recruitment process was extensive, and we feel we have found an executive that has not only the background and experience required, but who we believe will bring an innovative, patron-

oriented approach to the Osterhout,” said Pat Finan Castellano, chairwoman of the board. Miller, who grew up in Berwick and Salem Township, has a simple philosophy when it comes to running a library: Give the people what they want. In an age when library budgets are strained, young users are more apt to play video games or watch television and many readers have taken to electronic readers such as Kindles, Miller said libraries are still busy because they’ve listened to patrons and catered See OSTERHOUT, Page 9A

Some landowners say a neighbor had no right to allow a pipeline beneath the land they bought from her. By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

DALLAS TWP. – Several homeowners in the Goodleigh Manor development have filed a lawsuit against a neighbor they allege improperly gave permission for the construction of a natural gas pipeline beneath their properties. Robert Schaub, attorney for Jeff Dickson, Bill Watkins and Scott Watkins, said his clients are challenging the legality of neighbor Tuula D’Anca’s granting of a right “After of way to Chief Gatherspending ing LLC. the kind of Chief Gathering, a subsidiary of Chief Oil money and Gas, plans to build they did to a pipeline that will carry natural gas that will buy the be extracted from land and wells in Susquehanna County to the large build a Transco distribution house, pipeline, connecting at a point near the Dallas they don’t School District camwant com- pus in the township.

Unbeknownst Robert Schaub to his clients, D’Anca Attorney sold the right of way to install the gas pipeline beneath her property, as well as theirs. Schaub said his clients object to the construction of the pipeline based on safety and health concerns and because they believe it will negatively affect the value of their properties. “After spending the kind of money they did to buy the land and build a house, they don’t want commercial activity going through their property,” Schaub said. Schaub said he believes D’Anca has violated a covenant that all owners in Goodleigh Manor, an upscale housing development located off Upper Demunds Road, must abide by. That covenant precludes any commercial activity. “The whole parcel is subject to the covenant. If you try to do something, you must seek the approval of all other property owners,” he said. Schaub instituted the suit in April in Luzerne County Court by filing a writ of summons – a legal document that notifies a person of a pending suit, but does not contain specific allegations. Schaub said he is continuing to gather information for the filing of the complaint. Brian Stahl, attorney for D’Anca, said he could not comment on the case because no complaint has been filed detailing the claims that are being made.

NEWPORT TWP. – Firefighters rescued two dogs from a fire that struck a home at 4 Apple St. Thursday morning.

The second dog, Sasha, a Yorkshire Terrier who is less than a year old, was brought to her by a firefighter.

“Oh my God,” Gower exclaimed as the firefighter handed her the puppy, whose fur was covered with light soot. Gower cuddled the dog as an emergency worker wrapped the dog in a blanket and gave it water from a water bottle. Hoffman said firefighters encountered heavy smoke when they got on scene at around 9:45 a.m. They were able to quickly locate Queeny, who was downstairs. Sasha was found hiding under a bed in an upstairs bedroom, he said. The home sustained water damage in the kitchen and smoke damage to the remainder of the structure. “Fortunately the family didn’t lose any pets,” Hoffman said.

Cops: Skull from crypt thrown into river

Jesse Geasey is accused, for the second time, of theft of bones from a cemetery. By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

Ousted official defends citizens

Bob Reilly, on probation in connection with corruption probe, questions Coal St. plan. By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Former Luzerne County Clerk of Courts Bob Reilly was one of many concerned citizens who came out Wednesday night to discuss the Coal Street road project. Reilly, who served on city council for 12 years before holding county elective office, is serving a sentence of probation for lying to federal investigators as part of the county corruption probe. “I represented these people for many years,” Reilly said before the meeting. “And I live in the neighborhood. There have been a lot of changes to this project since it was first proposed in 2001 and we need to make some more so these people can park their vehicles.” The residents came out to protest the elimination of parking along Coal Street. The $12 million project that will make Coal Street a five-lane road is under way, with expected completion by October 2012. City officials including Mayor Tom Leighton, the project engineers and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation all agreed that there is enough time

to alter the plan, as long as the changes ensure safety for vehicles and pedestrians. They said it will take six weeks to Reilly study the plans and make recommendations. Steve Sartori of Pennoni Associates, project engineers, said several parklets will be constructed for vehicles to use on a first-come, first-served basis. Several residents said the parklets are located far from people’s homes, making it difficult to carry groceries or other items from their parked car to their front doors. Sartori said the residents would have to walk 100 to 200 feet. That brought a loud objection from the residents. “My neighbor is 91 years old,” said Tim Finley, 123 Coal St. “Do you think it’s reasonable for him to walk 100 to 200 feet carrying groceries?” Reilly noted that 26 homes on Coal Street do not have driveways that lead to off-street parking. “Where will these people park?” Reilly asked. He noted the project plan calls for 8-foot-wide sidewalks on each side of the street. He suggested reducing the size of the sidewalks to 4 feet to allow for parking. “This lacks common sense,”

Monica Jendrzejewski, 203 Coal St., said most residents of the street will become “landlocked” with no parking. “Parking is essential to all of us on Coal Street,” she said. “We are forced to look for parking spaces on adjoining side streets, but these spaces are already occupied by residents of those streets. It will breed ill-will if we take their parking spaces that they have used for as long as they’ve lived there.” Jendrzejewski said many of the residents are fearful of parking far from their front door because of a high crime rate in the neighborhood. She said police are often called to Coal Street Park. “We’ve had stabbings on Coal Street and Meade Street,” she said. “There have been purse snatchings, drug busts and car break-ins and vandalism.”

Army: Soldier admits attack plans

KILLEEN, Texas — An AWOL soldier who had weapons stashed in a motel room near Fort Hood admitted planning an attack on the Texas post, where 13 people died in 2009 in the worst mass shooting ever on a U.S. military installation, the Army said in an alert issued Thursday. Pfc. Naser Abdo, a 21-year-old soldier who was granted conscientious objector status this year after he said his Muslim beliefs prevented him from fighting, was arrested Wednesday. Agents found firearms and “items that could be identified as bomb-making

components, including gunpowder,” in his motel room, according to FBI spokesman Erik Vasys. The Army alert sent via email and obtained by The Associated Press says the man arrested by Killeen police “was in possession of a large quantity of am-

munition, weapons and a bomb inside a backpack.” Upon questioning, the alert says, he admitted to planning an attack on Fort Hood. Officials have not offered details about Abdo’s possible intentions. The infantry soldier from Garland, Texas, had applied for conscientious objector status last year. A military review board recommended this spring that he be separated from the Army. But the discharge was delayed after he was charged with possessing child pornography, and an Article 32 military hearing last month recommended he be court-martialed. He’s been absent without leave from Fort Campbell, Ky., since the July 4 weekend. Abdo’s arrest came after the owners of a local gun store — the same store where the 2009 Fort Hood shootings suspect Maj. Nidal Hasan bought a pistol used in the attack — called police,

the Army’s alert said. Store clerk Greg Ebert said the man arrived at Guns Galore LLC by taxi Tuesday and bought 6 pounds of smokeless gunpowder, three boxes of shotgun ammunition and a magazine for a semi-automatic pistol, paying about $250. Ebert said he became concerned when the man asked questions indicating he didn’t know much about the items. “(We) felt uncomfortable with his overall demeanor and the fact he didn’t know what the hell he was buying,” Ebert said. “I thought it prudent to contact the local authorities, which I did.” Killeen police learned from the taxi company that Abdo had been picked up from a local motel and that he also had visited an Army surplus store where he paid cash for a uniform bearing Fort Hood unit patches, according to the Army alert.

NEW HAVEN, CONN.

Firefighters get damages

white group of firefighters who won a reverse discrimination case A before the U.S. Supreme Court in 2009

has been awarded about $2 million in damages from the city of New Haven, ending a 7-year-old legal battle that fueled national debate over racial justice, officials said Thursday. The Supreme Court ruled that officials violated white firefighters’ civil rights when they threw out 2003 promotion tests results because too few minorities did well. The firefighters returned to U.S. District Court in Connecticut seeking back pay, damages and legal fees. Court papers indicate 20 firefighters accepted offers Wednesday from the city for back pay, additional pension benefits and interest. Attorneys for the city told The Associated Press on Thursday that the firefighters will receive about $2 million and the city will pay their attorneys’ fees and costs of about $3 million.

OSLO, NORWAY

Attack imitators feared

The man who admitted killing 76 people in a bombing and youth camp massacre last week is a sociopath who acted without accomplices or a network of like-minded right-wing extremists, and kept his plans to himself for more than a decade, Norway’s top police official said Thursday. Levels of right-wing violence across Europe have been generally low and there are no clear indications of imminent danger from networks of extremists, security officials said. But they expressed concern that Norway attacker Anders Behring Breivik could inspire imitators among the continent’s extremist, anti-immigrant fringe. European Union counterterrorism officials held a special meeting with Norwegian representatives Thursday dedicated to preventing future extreme-right attacks, saying they would try to share information faster and better understand what triggers the rare radical to turn to violence.

‘Jeopardy!’ host Trebek hurt

A woman accused of stealing cash and other items from “Jeopardy!” host Alex Trebek’s San Francisco hotel room was scheduled to appear in court Thursday. Lucinda Moyers, 56, of San Francisco, was arrested Wednesday on suspicion of felony burglary and receiving stolen property, said San Francisco police Lt. Troy Trebek Dangerfield. The 71-year-old Trebek said he snapped his Achilles tendon while running after a woman who he says stole cash, a bracelet and other items from his room around 2:30 a.m. Wednesday. Trebek, who has hosted the syndicated quiz show “Jeopardy!” since 1984, is scheduled to have surgery today and is expected to be in a cast for six weeks. KABUL, AFGHANISTAN

Taliban kills up to 21

A team of insurgent suicide bombers and gunmen struck a provincial capital Thursday, killing as many as 21 people in an audacious attack that underscored deteriorating security conditions across Afghanistan’s restive south. Women and children accounted for about half the dead, Afghan officials said. The toll also included at least three policemen and an Afghan journalist. About three dozen people were reported injured. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the strike in Tarin Kot, the capital of Oruzgan province.

MOGADISHU, Somalia — African Union troops fought house-to-house battles with militants Thursday to clear space for aid groups bringing in food supplies after intelligence reports showed insurgents reinforcing for a possible attack on squalid camps of famine refugees. Heavy fighting erupted on the line of control between the government side and territory held by al-Shabab, Somalia’s dominant militant group. At least six people were killed. The AU troops also paid a heavy price, with one official saying 19 were wounded, and

ing international efforts to prevent a wave of death. About 2.2 million people live in an inaccessible famine zone controlled by the al-Qaida-linked al-Shabab. Thursday’s house-to-house fighting was only 21⁄2 miles from the nearest famine refugee camp, said Lt. Col. Paddy Ankunda, spokesman for the African Union peacekeeping force. The offensive, he said, was to ensure the city streets are safe for aid groups to get humanitarian supplies to the more than 20,000 famine refugees that have arrived in Mogadishu this month alone. “The agencies have been trying to deliver. Unfortunately, al-Shabab has been bent on ensuring this aid does not reach the people,” Ankunda said. “This operation is about the delivery of humanitar-

has denied hundreds of thousands of Somalis access to food aid, he said. Ankunda added that al-Shabab has sent 300 reinforcement fighters to Mogadishu in recent days. Refugees have said militants already killed men who tried to flee famine-hit regions of Somalia with their families, saying it is better to starve than accept help from the West. African Union intelligence reports have indicated there could be attacks on Mogadishu’s patchwork of ad-hoc refugee camps. Thursday’s battle was a “short, tactical offensive operation,” Ankunda said. “This action will further increase security ... and ensure that aid agencies can continue to operate to get vital supplies to internally displaced,” he said.

Tylenol maker cuts maximum dose to avoid overdose By LINDA A. JOHNSON AP Business Writer

TRENTON, N.J. — Johnson & Johnson said Thursday that it’s reducing the maximum daily dose of its Extra Strength Tylenol pain reliever to lowerrisk ofaccidental overdose from acetaminophen, its active ingredient and the top cause of liver failure. The company’s McNeil Consumer Healthcare Division said the change affects Extra Strength Tylenol sold in the U.S. — one of many products in short supply in stores due to a string of recalls. Starting sometime this fall, labels on Extra Strength Tylenol packages will now list the maximum daily dose as six pills, or a total of 3,000 milligrams, down from eight pills a day, or 4,000 milligrams. McNeilwillalsoreducethemaximumdaily dose for its Regular Strength Tylenol and other adult pain relievers containing acetaminophen, beginning next year.

Johnson & Johnson said Thursday that it’s reducing the maximum daily dose of its Extra Strength Tylenol.

Besides Tylenol, acetaminophen is the active ingredient in the prescription painkillers Percocet and Vicodin and in some nonprescription pain relievers, including NyQuil and some Sudafed products. Peo-

ple taking multiple medicines at once don’t always realize how much acetaminophen they are ingesting. Two years ago, a panel of advisers to the Food and Drug Administration called for sweeping restrictions to prevent accidental fatal overdoses of acetaminophen, the most widely used pain killer in the country. “Acetaminophen is safe when used as directed,” Dr. Edwin Kuffner, McNeil’s head of over-the-counter medical affairs, said in a statement. “McNeil is revising its labels for products containing acetaminophen in an attempt to decrease the likelihood of accidental overdosing.” Kuffner noted many people taking multiple medicines don’t realize some of them contain acetaminophen, or don’t read or follow the dosing instructions. McNeil spokeswoman Bonnie Jacobs said other makers of pain relievers are likely to follow suit.

WASHINGTON — The Obama administration accused Iran on Thursday of entering into a “secret deal” with an al-Qaida offshoot that provides money and recruits for attacks in Afghanistan and Pakistan. The Treasury Department designated six members of the unit as terrorists subject to U.S. sanctions. The announcement was made despite disagreements in the U.S. intelligence community about the extent of di- Treasury desrect links be- ignated six tween the Iranian govern- members of ment and al- the unit as Qaida, offi- terrorists cials said. subject to Most analysts agree there is sanctions. a murky relationship between the two and at least some cooperation. But Thursday’s allegations go further. Treasury said its exposure of the clandestine agreement would disrupt al-Qaida operations by shedding light on Iran’s role as a “critical transit point” for money and extremists reaching Pakistan and Afghanistan. “This network serves as the core pipeline through which alQaida moves money, facilitators and operatives from across the Middle East to South Asia,” a statement said. Treasury said a branch headed by Ezedin Abdel Aziz Khalil was operating in Iran with the Tehran government’s blessing, funneling funds collected from across the Arab world to al-Qaida’s senior leaders in Pakistan. Khalil, the department said, has operated within Iran’s borders for six years. Also targeted by the sanctions is Atiyah Abd al-Rahman, appointed by Osama bin Laden as al-Qaida’s envoy in Iran after serving as a commander in Pakistan’s tribal areas. As an emissary, al-Rahman is allowed to travel in and out of Iran with the permission of government officials, the statement claimed.

Feds target drill-site pollution Proposed regulations would address smog, soot-forming pollutants from wells.

controls on storage tanks, transmission pipelines and other equipment -- at both oil and gas drilling sites on land -- would reduce by a quarter amounts of cancer-causing air pollution and methane, the main ingredient in natural gas, but also one of the most powerful contributors to global warming. The rules, according to the EPA, actually would save energy companies about $30 million a year because the companies could sell the gas they are forced to collect. EPA Assistant Administrator Gina McCarthy said the steps announced Thursday will help ensure "responsible production" of domestic energy. The agency is also in the process of studying whether hydraulic fracturing is polluting water, research that also could lead to more regulations on the practice. But Kathryn Klaber, president and executive director of the Marcellus Shale Coalition, said the proposed rules could have the opposite effect of reducing air pollution.

In a prepared statement Klaber said, “This sweeping set of potentially unworkable regulations represents an overreach that could, ironically, undercut the production of American natural gas, an abundant energy resource that is critical to strengthening our nation’s air quality.” While some states have had airrelated health issues as a result of drilling, a state study in Pennsylvania of air quality near Marcellus Shale drilling sites in four counties found no emissions at levels that would threaten the health of nearby residents or workers. “Our state regulators are keeping an eye on the ball,” said Klaber. “However, it’s not clear if EPA is as well.” The state study was done last year and the number of wells have doubled, added Tom Jiunta, founder and president of Luzerne County’s Gas Drilling Awareness Coalition. “That’s one static test,” said Jiunta. The regulations are going to upset the oil and gas industries because it’s an expense for them, he said. “I think the EPA was right in

stepping in to monitor this,” he added. The coalition paid to have baseline testing done of the air quality in the region so that it will have a reference point for comparison, said Jiunta. In March, pollution from natural gas drilling in the Upper Green River Basin in western Wyoming triggered levels of ground-level ozone, the main ingredient in smog, worse than those recorded in Los Angeles, one of the smoggiest cities in the U.S. In Dish, Texas, a rural town northwest of Dallas, the state’s environmental regulators detected levels of cancer-causing benzene, sometimes at levels dangerous to human health, likely coming from industry’s 60 drilling wells, gas production pads and rigs, a treating facility and compressor station. The gases escape into the atmosphere during drilling, from storage tanks, compressors along pipelines and other equipment. Until now, the EPA has mainly controlled pollution from natural gas processing plants. . Times Leader reporter Jerry Lynott contributed to this story.

Staff and wire reports

WASHINGTON -- Faced with a natural gas drilling boom that has sullied the air in some parts of the country, the Environmental Protection Agency on Thursday proposed for the first time to control air pollution at oil and gas wells, particularly those drilled using a method called hydraulic fracturing. The proposal, issued to meet a court deadline, addresses air pollution problems reported in places such as Wyoming, Texas, Pennsylvania and Colorado, where new drilling techniques have led to a rush to obtain natural gas that was once considered inaccessible. More than 25,000 wells are being drilled each year by "fracking," a process by which sand, water and chemicals are injected underground to fracture rock so gas can come out. The proposed regulations are designed to eliminate most releases of smog- and soot-forming pollutants from those wells. New

Local man guilty in sex assault case

State investigation will focus ical father of the woman’s two on whether Ralph E. Lewis is children. Kacmarski said it’s likely her a sexually violent predator. client will appeal his convicBy SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A Plains Township man was found guilty Thursday of 26 related charges in a case in which prosecutors say he sexually assaulted a woman over a 10-year period beginning when she was 8 years old in 1993, resulting in the birth of two children. A Luzerne County jury of seven men and five women found Ralph E. Lewis, 34, guilty of 26 related charges, including rape, aggravated indecent assault, sexual assault, incest and involuntary deviate sexual intercourse after deliberating for just under two hours. Luzerne County Senior Judge Kenneth Brown said Lewis’ sentencing will be scheduled within 90 days after the state Sexual Offenders Assessment Board conducts an investigation to determine if Lewis is a sexually violent predator. Assistant District Attorney Nancy Violi said some of the charges against Lewis include a five- or 10-year mandatory sentence. If sentenced on the maximum allowable on each of the 26 charges, a maximum sentence of 334 years is possible, if each sentence is run consecutive to one another. Friends and family members, as well as the victim, who is known to Lewis, cried and gave each other the thumbs up after the verdict was read. “We put on the best defense as possible, but when there’s DNA evidence, it’s hard to dispute,” Lewis’ attorney Allyson Kacmarski said of three experts who testified DNA showed Lewis was the biolog-

tion and upcoming sentence. In her closing argument, Kacmarski said money is a motivating factor in life, and that instance applied in Lewis’ case. She said money was the reason the now 27-year-old woman, who now lives in Nebraska, claimed Lewis raped her and fathered two of her children, one who passed away at the age of 7 months. The attorney suggested to the jurors that Lewis’ father told the woman about a pending lawsuit Lewis was involved in in 2006 that settled for $387,000. After the woman learned about the upcoming settlement, Kacmarski said, six months later she reported the alleged abuse to police. “He’s not guilty,” Kacmarski said. “People will do just about anything to put money in their pockets.” Violi said in her closing argument that all the jury had to do was believe the woman’s testimony to convict Lewis of all the 26 related charges. She told jurors they saw the pain and heartache the woman had to relive when telling the jury about the abuse, and that she had no reason to make up the allegations. “It’s desperation,” Violi said of Kacmarski’s claim the woman fabricated the story to get money. Violi also spoke to jurors about Lewis’ arrest in Oklahoma and two escapes from custody while there in an attempt to avoid the charges in Pennsylvania filed in 2007, one ending in Lewis being Tasered and another in Lewis being pepper sprayed. “You can run, but you can’t hide,” Violi said of Lewis’ actions. “Innocent people don’t run. Guilty people do.”

State store sales split the GOP

Jobs, competitive issues are raised in connection with plans to privatize the system. By BRAD BUMSTED The Pittsburgh Tribune-Review

HARRISBURG -- Rep. Scott Petri says he’s "not sold" on fellow Republican and House Majority Leader Mike Turzai’s bill to sell the state stores. Petri is worried about the impact on existing businesses, such as restaurants and beer distributors, if other retailers are allowed to sell liquor and wine. The bill imposes a new tax structure, and private wholesale operators would sell liquor to restaurants. He noted that businesses bought liquor licenses from the state at a price years ago based on certain expectations, which are now changing. The Bucks County legislator also said he concerned about 5,000 employees of the Liquor Control Board losing their jobs. "How do you unwind a system without hurting people?" he asked on Wednesday during a hearing on Turzai’s H.B. 11. Petri was one of several Republicans asking tough questions, despite the legislation’s being filed by the chamber’s top GOP leader. Turzai pitched the bill in an unusual 3 1/2-hour appearance before the House Liquor Control Committee. Chairman John Taylor, R-Philadelphia, said all points of view would be considered at additional hearings in Hershey, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. "Government is supposed to serve the people, not serve them alcohol," said Turzai, whose bill would establish auctions for 1,250 licenses while closing more than 600 state stores. Turzai contends his bill would mean more convenience and better prices and would bring in $1 billion to $2 billion in upfront revenue for the state. He noted Gov. Tom Corbett, who supports liquor store divestiture, has made "offhand" remarks that he would like to see the money go into a transportation trust fund to provide annual payments toward fixing roads and bridges.

Happy 37h Birthday

STEPHEN M. GREANEY II 7-29-74 TO 7-22-07 Some Things I’d Like To Say “First of all to let you know that I arrived O.K. That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through. God picked me up & hugged me & whispered “I welcome you.” God gave me a list of things he wished for me to do. And foremost on that list is to watch and care for you. When you’re sad I’m standing there to wipe away your tears. And when you are in bed at night the days chores put to flight God & I are closer to you in the middle of the night. When you think of my life on earth & all those loving years. Because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears. Do not be afraid to cry it does relieve the pain. Remember there would be no flowers unless there was some rain. One thing is for certain, though my life on earth is over. I’m closer to you now than I ever was before. And to my many friends, trust God knows what is best. I’m still not far away from you I’m just

beyond the crest. There are rocky roads ahead of you & many hills to climb, but together we can do it taking one day at a time. If you can help somebody who is in sorrow or in pain. Then you can say to God at night “my day was not in vain.” And now I am content that my life it was worthwhile. Knowing as I passed along the way I made somebody smile. If you meet somebody who is down & feeling low just lend a hand to pick him up as on your way you go. When you’re walking down the street & you’ve got me on your mind. I’m walking in your footsteps only half a step behind. And when you feel the gentle breeze or the wind upon your face. That’s me giving you a great big hug or just a soft embrace. And I will always love you from that land way up above...PS God Sends his love!” Ride on...

Endlessly missed by Mom, Berm, Dawn, Unc, Auntmeister, Bratt, Pnut, Baby Girl, Mimi, Grampa, Kid, Old Man, & many, many Relatives & Friends. Thank you Doug, Davey & to the writer of this poem.

New area code to be delayed a year By ANDREW M. SEDER aseder@timesleader.com

A spokeswoman for the state’s Public Utility Commission has confirmed that plans to introduce a new area code to portions of the region currently served by the 570 area code have been put on hold for at least a year. The original intent was to roll out the new 272 area code this summer or fall, but Denise McCracken said the new target date is the third quarter of 2012. The 570 area code was established in 1998 after phone numbers were exhausted in the 717 area code that had served a large swath of central and Northeastern Pennsylvania. With the same

to their needs. Adding more computers, offering classes for seniors, more after-school activities for children and focusing on local history and genealogy resources have enabled libraries to thrive at a time some might think they’d be obsolete. “Make libraries more user friendly,” Miller said. He also has experience with fundraising. In 2005 the McBride Memorial Library opened a $3-million capital campaign to expand the 3,400-square-foot library. Three years later, the new 24,000square-foot-facility opened. He said leaving McBride was

pack for several days. While he was fishing with another person, he tossed the skull into the Susquehanna River. “He disposed of it in the river when the media reported the incident and reported his previous arrest. He got scared and threw it in the river,” Foy said. “Obvi-

situation on the horizon for the 570 area code, the North American Numbering Plan Administrator informed the state PUC last year of the plan to add the 272 area code as an overlay to the region served by 570. North American Numbering Plan Administrator is the neutral third party area code relief planner for Pennsylvania. An overlay will mean that it’s possible to have one area code for a home phone and another for a cell phone. Neighbors would have to dial 10 numbers whether they’re calling each other or relatives in California. McCracken said number conservation plans implemented by

various carriers is the reason for the 272 delay. “With the aid of numbering conservation, which the PUC required carriers to implement, the expected exhaust date is now the third quarter of next year,” McCracken said. “NANPA will continue to monitor the 570 area code and provide projected exhaust updates to the (PUC). NANPA is to alert us when the 570 area code is three months from exhaust at which time the carriers will begin their education and permissive dialing to implement the 272 area code, and at this point, the (PUC) has not received word of its necessity yet.”

Geasey was sentenced to six months probation for the theft of bones from several crypts entombed in a mausoleum in 1998, according to court records. In an unrelated case, police charged Geasey with drunken

driving after he was spotted driving into Hollenback Cemetery in the middle of the night on March 14, 2009. Geasey stopped his vehicle in the back of the cemetery near the mausoleums, arrest records say. He was sentenced to 72 hours to six months in jail for the DUI offense. A preliminary hearing is scheduled on Aug. 2 in WilkesBarre Central Court.

Group sponsoring drilling tour Gas Drilling Awareness Coalition will go to Bradford County drilling areas. By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

The Gas Drilling Awareness Coalition is offering community leaders and political hopefuls a first-hand look at the development of natural gas drilling in Pennsylvania’s Northern Tier. The group will sponsor a tour Sunday of areas in Bradford County undergoing Marcellus Shale gas drilling development, including an active drilling site and a pipeline compressor station, coalition member Scott Cannon said. “Our main focus in the Gas Drilling Awareness Coalition is

education,” Cannon said, “and that’s what this is about. It’s an educational trip.” Cannon said the group sent out 45 email invitations to state representatives and senators from the area, candidates for Luzerne County Council and local community organizers. Cannon said 10 had replied by July 22, the deadline to RSVP, among them: Democratic congressional candidate William Vinsko, Dallas Borough Supervisor Frank Wagner, a representative of the city of Wilkes-Barre and Luzerne County Council candidates Eileen Sorokas, Theresa Morcavage and Kathleen Dobash.

Cannon said seats for the tour are still available, and the coalition is offering them to interested community and civic leaders from Luzerne, Lackawanna and Columbia counties. Interested parties can contact Cannon at 719-9986. In addition to viewing drill sites, the group will speak with Bradford County landowners about how drilling has affected their lives, and a speaker will discuss the economic impact gas drilling has had on the tourism industry in Northeastern Pennsylvania, Cannon said. Cannon also said he plans to tape the tour and edit it into a short film he will post on the coalition’s YouTube Channel. The tour will depart at 10 a.m. Sunday from the Dallas Shopping Center parking lot.

raly, who was absent from Tuesday’s meeting. Planning commission member Larry Dellegrotto was joined by Exeter resident and gas drilling activist Nancy Dolan in providing some explanation to the public. Among the recommendations, any company seeking to drill for gas or perform any related activities would have to do so on a parcel of land that is at least 20 acres. Approval to operate on anything less would be granted only by the council. Council President Richard Murowski urged members to move forward on the issue, noting that the zoning regulation change “is something that could always be built upon.” The other zoning recommendation from the planning commission concerned future development of “big box” stores. The recommendation suggested that the council be given the

EXETER – Borough council approved two sets of municipal planning commission recommendations concerning future development within the borough during Tuesday’s council meeting. The first motion, which recommended providing the borough council with greater zoning authority over any natural gas drilling or ancillary activities, passed unanimously. Although there has been no speculation of natural gas drilling within Exeter, council members have been working with a group of concerned residents to anticipate public safety and private property value concerns. There was initially some hesitancy from the council to act on the motion, as they were expecting a more in-depth explanation from borough engineer Jack Va-

sole authority to approve conditional usage for mercantile projects of more than 75,000 square feet. Another key recommendation was to require any company constructing a store of this size to establish a destruction bond to fund the demolition and rehabilitation of the land after any store closure or abandonment. The council initially declined to put the motion up for a vote but ultimately passed it 5-2 after Dellegrotto explained that this would have no effect on the current Wyoming Avenue Wal-Mart project. Council member Denise Adams, who was joined by Daniel DeRoberto in casting the only votes against the recommendation, said she preferred to hear a more thorough description of the issue from Varaly before voting. The recommendations are now likely to be included in an overall revised borough zoning code. Exeter officials expect to hold a public hearing before officially including the measures but have not yet set a date for that hearing.

aternal and Family Health Services applauds the recommendation from the Institute of Medicine that all insurers be required to offer contraceptives and other preventive women’s health services with no co-pays or deductibles under the Affordable Care Act. This recommendation, if approved by the Obama administration, will dramatically improve women’s access to preventive services and reinforce that reproductive health is central to women’s overall health and well-being. The institute’s non-partisan panel of scientific and medical experts identified contraception, yearly well-woman visits, support for breast-feeding, screening and counseling for domestic violence, and counseling for sexually transmitted infections, among others, as essential preventive health care for women, and therefore health insurers should be required to cover them at no-cost to the woman. As a provider of family planning care for low-income and uninsured women in Northeastern Pennsylvania, our agency understands this decision will make birth control more accessible by removing the often insurmountable cost barrier, and will help women plan for and space their pregnancies, lead to better health outcomes and provide brighter futures for their families.

Writer expresses outrage over drilling proposals

e have just heard from the Marcellus Shale Advisory Commission, many of whose members have ties to, or were lobbyists for, the gas industry. Its results were consistent with half-truths and recommendations that sound as if they came straight from the boardroom of the natural gas industry. The report indicated that there were 140,000 jobs created with ties to gas drilling. Not true. According to the state Department of Labor, that number is around 67,000. It also said that the industry paid $1.1 billion in taxes in 2010. Again, not true. The state Department of Revenue said that the dollar figure is correct, but the number represents the years 2006 to 2010. It also said that an impact fee should be assessed, but only if the gas drillers can have forced pooling. Unacceptable. The real question here is this: Where are our elected officials? We need to have stronger laws to protect our air, water and environment. We need to move drilling pads at least 2,500 feet from water supplies and homes. We need a

law to keep the drillers out of our state forests and game lands. And above all, we need a flat-out severance tax with no strings attached. Our governor has sold us out with his absurd pledge of no tax on drilling. How dare he make such drastic cuts in the budget and yet tell us that this industry that is flush with money, and by the way has agreed that it should pay a tax, not pay its fair share. Where is the outrage, not only from the people of Pennsylvania, but also from our elected officials? Brad Noble Dallas

Help revive economy with WPA-like program

ith all the political posturing and the various plans to create jobs and bolster the economy, now might be the time to look back, as many politicians so often do, at a tried and proven program: the Works Progress Administration. The WPA was a relief measure established in 1935 by executive order. Headed by Harry L. Hopkins and supplied with an initial congressional appropriation of $4.8 billion, it offered work to the unemployed on an unprecedented scale by spending money on a wide variety of programs. The gigantic undertaking was inevitably attended by confusion, waste and political favoritism, yet the “pump-priming” effect stimulated private business during the Depression years. By 1938, the WPA rolls had reached more than 3.4 million people. By June 30, 1943, when it was officially terminated, the WPA had employed more than 8.5 million people. During its eight-year history, the WPA built 651,087 miles of highways, roads and streets; and it constructed, repaired or improved 124,031 bridges, 125,110 public buildings, 8,192 parks and 853 airport landing fields. In summary, the program created jobs, gave people a sense of purpose and funds to boost economic activity and, as noted above, it benefited a deteriorating infrastructure. Whatever is conjured up, it shouldn’t result in another approximate $1 trillion wasted to buy an election.

Ending Bush tax cuts way to reduce deficit

hen President Clinton left office, he left a surplus, with the Congressional Budget Office projecting future increases. When President Bush left office, he left a projected $1.2 trillion deficit for 2009 – with additional deficits to follow. Three factors led to these deficits: wars, tax cuts and recessions. President Bush’s cost of new policies for his terms of office was $5.07 trillion. If President Obama is re-elected, the cost of his new policies would be $1.44 trillion. Presently, the majority party in the House would reduce the deficit on the backs of those people least able to defend themselves, and avoid seeing the Bush tax cuts expire. When one considers that America’s richest 400 people have more wealth than the bottom 150 million Americans and that allowing the Bush tax cuts to expire in 2012 would cut nearly half of projected future deficits, our elected representatives would rather distract us with peripheral issues than protect the needs of the elderly, the ill and the working poor.

Use the law to curb inattentive drivers

y wife and I recently took a driving trip to Maine. After spending many hours in the car, sharing the driving, we came to this conclusion: Inattentive drivers are doing the vast majority of reckless driving. It seemed as if every car that drifted in and out of the driving lane, stopped short, tailgated, traveled at an unsafe speed or greatly fluctuated speeds was being operated by someone talking on a cell phone, texting, eating, drinking, applying makeup, scolding children or doing some other non-driving activity. Since when did operating a vehicle become the secondary function while behind the wheel? Don’t these drivers realize the danger they are creating for themselves, their passengers and other vehicles in their vicinity? I know many states are passing inattentive driving laws; however, our lawmakers in Pennsylvania appear to be very reluctant to address the subject. Simply making cell phone use while operating a vehicle a secondary offense is ludicrous. All inattentive driving should be curtailed! Please contact your state representative and urge him or her to address this very serious and dangerous practice. Gary Zavacki Exeter

Area reps weigh in on debt plan ERROR

Continued from Page 1A

Barletta expresses support for speaker’s plan; Marino playing close to the vest. By JONATHAN RISKIND jriskind@timesleader.com

WASHINGTON -- Rep. Lou Barletta of Hazleton, part of the House Republican freshman class whom House Speaker John Boehner furiously lobbied to accept his debt ceiling compromise, took to the House floor Thursday to proclaim his support for the plan to cut $917 billion in spending in exchange for raising the $14.3 trillion debt ceiling by $900 billion. But House GOP leaders suddenly postponed the vote early Thursday evening, possibly lacking confidence that enough conservative Republicans, especially the sometimes rebellious freshman class,

sented by Sen. Jim DeMint, who has solid ties to tea party groups and is a strong critic of compromising on the debt issue. A few first-term conservatives slipped into a small chapel a few paces down the hall from the Capitol Rotunda as they contemplated one of the most consequential votes of their careers. Asked if he was seeking divine inspiration, Rep. Tim Scott, RS.C., said that had already happened. “I was leaning no and now I am a no.” Many more congregated in the office of the chief GOP vote counter, California Rep. Kevin McCarthy, perhaps drawn to the 19 boxes of pizza that were rolled in. Boehner joined them but did not speak to reporters. “Clock ticks towards August 2, House is naming post offices, while leaders twist arms for a pointless vote. No wonder people hate Washington,” White House Communications Director Dan Pfeiffer tweeted. Earlier, Boehner had exuded optimism. “Let’s pass this bill and end the crisis,” said the president’s principal Republican antagonist in a new and contentious era of divided government. “It raises the debt limit and cuts government spending by a larger amount.” President Barack Obama has threatened to veto the measure, and in debate on the House floor, Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Florida savaged it as a “Republican plan for default.” She said the GOP hoped to “hold our economy hostage while forcing an ideological agenda” on the country. Despite the sharp rhetoric, there were signs that gridlock might be giving way.

would vote for the measure. While saying he would have preferred the larger cuts – totaling $5.8 trillion - and a vote on a balanced budget amendment contained in the House GOP-approved “Cut, Cap and Balance” bill, Barletta said that the country could not be allowed to default on its obligations. Saying that calls to his office from his Northeast Pennsylvania constituents indicate that Americans want the “bickering” to stop in Washington, Barletta said that while Boehner’s plan “is far from perfect, it accommodates the priorities

of the people sitting on both sides of the table, both sides of the aisle and both sides of the Capitol.” Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., has said Boehner’s plan won’t pass the Senate, and he is expected to put his version of a compromise on the Senate floor and send that back to the House. Reid’s bill makes cuts and raises the debt ceiling through the 2012 election, while the Boehner plan only raises it for about six months. President Obama has indicated he would veto the Boehner plan. Barletta indicated he is looking for a compromise before the Aug. 2 default date. “If we in this chamber, if our friends in the other chamber, or if the president holds out for the perfect plan, well, the United States will likely default on its obligations,” Barletta said. “As the responsible stewards

“Around here you’ve got to have deadlock before you have breakthrough,” said Sen. Kent Conrad, D-N.D. “We’re at that stage now.” Wall Street suffered fresh losses as Congress struggled to break its long gridlock. The Dow Jones industrial average was down for a fifth straight session. The Treasury Department moved ahead with plans to hold its regular weekly auction of threemonth and six-month securities on Monday. Yet officials offered no information on what steps would be taken if Congress failed to raise the nation’s $14.3 trillion debt limit by the following day. Without signed legislation by Aug. 2, the Treasury will not have enough funds to pay all the nation’s bills. Administration officials have warned of potentially calamitous effects on the economy if that happens — a spike in interest rates, a plunge in stock markets and a tightening in the job market in a nation already struggling with unemployment over 9 percent. White House press secretary Jay Carney outlined White House compromise terms: “significant deficit reduction, a mechanism by which Congress would take on the tough issues of tax reform and entitlement reform and a lifting of the debt ceiling beyond ... into 2013.” The last point loomed as the biggest obstacle. The House bill cuts spending by $917 billion over a decade, principally by holding down costs for hundreds of government programs ranging from the Park Service to the Agriculture Department and foreign aid. It also provides an immediate debt limit increase of $900 billion, which is less than half of the total needed to meet Obama’s insistence that there be no replay of the current crisis in the heat of the 2012 election campaigns. pointed to oversee various corrective measures instituted in the wake of the juvenile scandal, was tasked with overseeing the fund. Grim, with the aid of the county District Attorney’s Office and Juvenile Probation Department, identified 180 people who were still owed money. Officials then reviewed requests to determine the total loss, less any restitution and other payments they had already received. Payments were capped at $1,500, unless there was more than one juvenile in-

of the people’s government, we cannot let that happen. And I am confident we will not let that happen.” But the other GOP House freshman from the region, Rep. Tom Marino of Lycoming County, said Thursday when the House vote was postponed that he would not say whether he would vote in favor of the Boehner bill until he cast his vote. Marino “would only consider raising the debt ceiling if the move is in the spirit of the Cut, Cap and Balance Act for which he voted last week,” his office said earlier this week. “An increase in the debt limit would have to include serious spending cuts, caps on future spending, the prospect of a balanced budget amendment, and serious tax reform.” Jonathan Riskind is The Times Leader’s Washington correspondent.

Restaurant robbery

PETE G. WILCOX/THE TIMES LEADER

Wilkes-Barre Township Lt. Will Clark investigates an armed robbery that occurred around 8:20 p.m. Thursday at the China Kitchen restaurant on state Route 309. A young black male, approximately 5 feet, 10 inches tall and wearing a black T-shirt, blue jeans and black baseball cap, displayed what appeared to be a semiautomatic handgun and made off with an undetermined amount of cash from the register, said Clark. The robbery was the third one in two weeks. The restaurant was robbed July 14 and Monday night, said Clark. He said it is not known whether they are related. The only common thread among the three is that the robbers ran up the hill behind the restaurant into the Sherman Hills apartment complex, he said.

volved. Letters were sent to victims in March advising them of how to apply. Grim and Musto Carroll also held several informational sessions. Despite that, Musto Carroll said many of the victims chose not to make claims. “We thought there would be more people who would respond to make claims. We’re pleased at least 100 or so did make a claim and they were approved,” she said. Payments approved Thursday by the Supreme Court ranged

from $33 to $4,500 ($1,500 each from three juvenile defendants). The grand total of the payments – $65,310 – is far less than the $500,000 set aside. The remaining money will revert to an overall crime victims compensation fund held by the state, Musto Carroll said. Filipowicz said he was owed money for thousands of dollars of damage a juvenile did to his rental property after the youth and his mother moved out. Filipowicz, of Ohio, said he filled a form seeking money from

“We were anxious to see what was inside that report,” Antonelli said, adding that the district believes all the statistical anomalies can be explained and that no cheating occurred. The district has already sent its findings to the state. The Times Leader requested, received and reviewed some of the forensic report data from the state. The good news for Hazleton Area: The numbers for economically disadvantaged students in 2009 support a theory proposed by Antonelli shortly after it became public. Antonelli suggested flawed data could have caused many district schools to land on the list of suspected cheating. He said the district had submitted the annual numbers for low-income students to the state electronically in 2009, but the state didn’t get the complete file. The district resubmitted the data and the problem was resolved. Antonelli suspected the company contracted to do the statistical analysis had gathered information from the state after the effort to send data failed but before the resubmission succeeded. Data reviewed by The Times Leader supports that theory. The percentages of economically disadvantaged students for 2009 used in the report are starkly different from state data for any other year – including data currently posted on the state website for 2009. According to the forensic report, most grades in Hazleton Area reviewed for the study had no economically disadvantaged students in the 2008-09 school year. The highest rate was a scant 7.1 percent. Yet, annual data from the state consistently shows those same grades had anywhere from 15 percent to 85 percent of their student population classified as economically disadvantaged. Change flagged The difference is critical in the report, which “flagged” a school if it had a dramatic change in the percentage of economically disadvantaged students. The report analyzed the data two separate ways for reading and math tests, meaning a school could get four flags based on the economically disadvantaged data. If a school had three or more flags in one grade, it was put on a list for potential cheating, and in Hazleton Area, 25 grades in five schools made that list. Of those, 23 had four flags each based on the data for economically disadvantaged students. Take out that data, and the total number of grades that got three or more flags in the district drops from 25 to five. Those five grades are in three elementary/middle schools:

the compensation fund several months ago, but didn’t expect anything would be done. “Even though I sent a letter in, I didn’t have faith it would be taken care of, but they did it. I’m kind of happy about that,” Filipowicz said. Linda Ebert, of Hazleton, also sought money from the fund to compensate her for a 2005 barn fire that was set by two juveniles. Ebert was approved for $3,000 – $1,500 each for the two juveniles. Ebert said the money is little consolation to her, however,

Heights Terrace, Hazleton and West Hazleton. Of those, Heights Terrace had the most flags even without the flawed data: It was flagged six times in grade six and four times in grade three. The grades in other schools had three flags each. In all those cases, the grades were flagged at least once – usually twice, once for math and once for reading – for an unusually high number of erasures on the tests, particularly wrong to right erasures. District response But Antonelli said the district review of the data showed that those grades had about the same percentage of erasures as the state averages. “In every case where we were flagged for erasures, we were flagged within the state mean for that grade level,” Antonelli said. The district contends that fact shows – almost by definition – that nothing in the district schools was out of the ordinary. “In a district where roughly 6,000 students were tested that year and 33 are coming up with erasure rates that are within the state mean, in our opinion there’s really nothing there,” Antonelli said. Some district schools were flagged for test scores that exceeded statistical predictions, or that rose faster than statistically expected. Antonelli said the district contends that just proves extensive efforts to boost test scores have helped some students. Other flags in district schools were related to statistically unusual changes in the number of students in two groups: white students and “Full Academic Year” students – those enrolled in the district by Oct. 1 of the school year. Antonelli said the district believes that can be explained by the highly transient population in the district, where students enroll and leave constantly through the year. In 2009, he said, slightly more than 10 percent of the entire student body – 10,265 according to state data – “came and went” in that single year. Antonelli said the district sent the results of its investigation to the state last week. He said state officials told him there are three likely actions by the state. “They could ask us for more specific information before making a determination on our response, they can accept our response and basically wipe the slate clean, or they could come back and say our response wasn’t really satisfactory and they want to conduct a further investigation.” Antonelli said he asked who would conduct another investigation, but the Department of Education hasn’t determined if it would be done by the district, the state, or by both in collaboration. “We’re anxious to see what the Department of Education does.” as her total loss was $173,000, none of which was covered by insurance. “That was a lifetime of putting things together so that when I retired I’d have something to fall back on,” she said. “Three thousand won’t cover it.” Ebert hopes someday to recoup rest of money from a lawsuit she filed against Luzerne County Children and Youth. The agency had custody of the two juveniles who set the fire. The suit, filed in 2008, remains pending in county court.

Teams waste no time shuffling rosters Several veterans, including Eagles quarterback Kevin Kolb, are traded while others are released. By HOWARD FENDRICH AP Pro Football Writer

There goes Albert Haynesworth, heading from Mike Shanahan’s Redskins to Bill Belichick’s Patriots. Reggie Bush? The Saints sent him to the Dolphins. And the Kevin Kolb saga is ending the way

pretty much everyone expected, with a trade from the Eagles to the Cardinals. NFL clubs made a move a minute Thursday — and that trio of big-name deals was only the beginning. Day 3 of the compressed, post-lockout offseason also included more contract agreements and plenty of cuts, which teams were finally allowed to start announcing at 4:01 p.m. ET. Among the players getting released were Vince Young by the Titans, Nate Clements by the 49ers, and Jake Delhomme by the

Browns. In the first dramatic example of how the new labor deal’s rookie salary system will affect elite players, No. 2 overall draft pick Von Miller got about $21 million over four years from the Denver Broncos. The No. 2 pick in 2010, Detroit Lions defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh, signed a five-year deal worth $40 million guaranteed and as much as $68 million overall. Broncos football chief John Elway tweeted, “We have agreed to terms with

our 1st round pick, LB Von Miller. Can’t wait to get him on the field.” In the Kolb deal, Philadelphia received cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie and a 2012 second-round draft pick from Arizona, which was in need of a starting quarterback. Kolb had lost the Eagles’ No. 1 QB job to Michael Vick and wanted a chance to lead a team. Kolb, who turns 27 next month, reportedly will get a $63 million, five-year conSee NFL, Page 4B

PHILADELPHIA — Tim Lincecum threw six scoreless innings, Pablo Sandoval hit a solo homer and the San Francisco Giants beat the Philadelphia Phillies 4-1 on Thursday night in their first game with Carlos Beltran. The All-Star GIANTS outfielder was 0 for 4 with two strikeouts in his debut with the PHILLIES defending World Series champions, who won two of three against the major league-leading Phillies in a rematch of the NLCS. Lincecum (9-8) showed no negative effects from the stomach illness that forced him to push his start back two days.

Penn State head coach Joe Paterno waits to be announced before addressing the media during Big Ten football media day in Chicago Thursday.

SWB Yanks Paterno says he’s ready to roll double up on Buffalo By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com

By MIKE HAIM For the Times-Leader

BUFFALO, N.Y. – Early in Thursday night’s game, it looked like the Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre Yankees would deluge the Buffalo Bisons with a barrage of douYANKEES bles. It was a home run from a familiar source, howBISONS ever, that ended up providing the necessary lift. Jorge Vazquez hit a leadoff home run in the eighth inning to break a 3-3 tie, starting a threerun rally which gave the Yankees a 6-3 win, their sixth straight victory.

At least this year, Joe Paterno said, no one asked him if he was going to die on the job. The Penn State coach arrived in Chicago last summer for Big Ten media days at age 83 after months of seclusion while recovering from an intestinal virus. He looked and sounded frail when addressing the media, and indeed, the first reporter who addressed him asked if he planned on coaching until his death. At age 84, Paterno returned to the Hyatt Regency on Thursday and looked to be in much better shape. “I feel a lot better than I did a year ago,” Paterno said. “I had (a few) tough years physically. The kid from Wisconsin running into me in the sideline, when I broke my knee that time. Then I threw my hip out showing off, trying to show the kids how to kick a football. I couldn’t kick when I was healthy – I sure as hell couldn’t kick with a broken knee. “But I feel good. I’m back to doing a lot of things I used to do, walking a lot more. I’ve been watching what I eat. I feel good. I enjoyed this spring, have a lot more enthusiasm.” Enough that he gave reporters in Chicago his standard line of wanting to coach four or five more years – which has been the case for the past 24 or 25 years.

Paterno’s contract expires after the season. But if he wants to return for 2012 and beyond, it’s hard to imagine Penn State President Graham Spanier and other school powerbrokers would be able to force him out. They tried that following the 2004 campaign – the team’s fourth losing season in five years – and failed, a fact Paterno was quick to bring up again on Thursday.

“Somebody told me five or six years ago, talking to me about maybe I oughta quit,” Paterno said. “I didn’t think I was ready to quit. I said, ‘If I can’t get something done here in the next couple years, I’ll quit.’ “We got some pretty good teams in the last couple years, up ’til last year. Last year we weren’t very See JOE, Page 4B

OPINION JIM LITKE

Strange way of restoring a reputation Details of a widening scandal have been oozing out of North Carolina’s football program like toothpaste from the tube for a solid year. Tweets from players about champagne flowing like water at a party underwitten by agents. An assistant accused of acting as a runner for another agent. A tutor once employed by head football coach Butch Davis to work with his own teenage son helping players write papers and paying off their parking tickets. Apparently, none of it bothered UNC chancellor Holden Thorp until he tried brushing his teeth in front of a mirror the other day. So ask yourself: How is it that the college poobahs are always the last to know? “What started as a purely athletic issue,” Thorp said when he finally got around to firing Davis, “has begun to chip away at this university’s reputation.” Chip away? With all due respect, chancellor, the rest of us are already in the deep-drilling phase. Chipping away is what happened last July, when the aforementioned tweet by Marvin Austin — suspended for all of last season and then scooped up in the NFL draft — put the NCAA gumshoes on UNC’s trail. Now, instead of being a school that could justifiably boast about doing things “the Carolina way,” North Carolina looks like every other school desperate to grab the handfuls of cash floating around college sports while trying to stay a step ahead of the authorities. Somehow, running one of the most successful, not to mention cleanest, basketball programs in the land for decades wasn’t enough. UNC wanted to be a football factory, too. It doesn’t take a math major — nor like Thorp a Ph.D in chemistry — to compare the rosters in the two sports and know that the risk to a school’s reputation increases six-fold. Just ask Oregon, where the wheels are already turning furiously. We’ve been down this road plenty of times before. Ohio State and Tennessee, to name just two, are traveling it even as you read this, eager to persuade the NCAA not to add to the pile of punishments they’ve already heaped on themselves. That’s what axing Davis and the retirement of longtime UNC athletic director Dick Baddour — who like Thorp stood squarely behind the coach until now — were about. To call what’s happening at North Carolina a mess isn’t forward-looking enough. It won’t be cleaned up for years. The school still owes Davis as much as $2.7 million. As recently as Monday, he was at the Atlantic Coast Conference media day talking about his plans for the coming season. He again said then that he didn’t know about the improSee LITKE, Page 4B

DETROIT — Mark Trumbo homered and drove in a careerhigh five runs to lead the Los Angeles Angels over the Detroit Tigers 12-7 on Thursday. Trumbo also tripled, doubled and scored three times in the rookie’s fourth three-hit game. Needing just a single for the cycle, he grounded out leading off the ninth inning.

Ex-Yank Irabu found dead The Associated Press

LOS ANGELES — Hideki Irabu joined the New York Yankees 14 years ago in a swell of international excitement. The quirky, flamethrowing Japanese righthander seemed destined to become a pioneering star for American baseball’s marquee franchise. Irabu never reached those enormousexpectations,andhiscareer spiraled. On Wednesday, the 42year-old was found dead, an apparent suicide in a home in Rancho Palos Verdes, a wealthy Los Angeles suburb. “He was a world-class pitcher,” said former major league manager Bobby Valentine, who managed Irabu in Japan in 1995. “When Nolan Ryan saw him, he said he had never seen anything like it. There were just some days when he was as good a pitcher as I had ever seen. A fabulous arm.” Los Angeles County coroner’s official Ed Winter said his office is investigating Irabu’s death as a suicide, revealing no additional circumstances. An autopsy will be performed Friday or Saturday. Irabu was billed as the Japanese version of Ryan when he arrived in the United States in 1997, a hard-throwing starter with a 98mph fastball who excelled as a strikeout specialist — an almost unfair addition to the defending World Series champions. After an impressive debut with the Yankees that summer, he was a disappointment to the Yankees and himself during three seasons in the Bronx. Instead, he was forever tagged with a label from late YankeesownerGeorgeSteinbrenner, who called him a “fat ... toad” after Irabu failed to cover first base during an exhibition game. Irabu finished 34-35 with a 5.15 ERA in his tenure with the Yankees, two years in Montreal and a final season in the Texas bullpen in 2002. He was a member of two Yankees teams that won the World Series, but his only postseason action was a single relief appearance in the 1999 AL championship series when Boston tagged him for 13 hits.

COLLEGE FOOTBALL

Violations are hot topic at Big 10 media day Conference’s commissioner believes reforms are needed to NCAA rulebook. By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com

A few months ago, Jim Delany’s plan had been to talk about anything but this. Nebraska was officially joining the league. Realignment. A conference championship game for the first time. Increasing revenues and exposure for the TV network. But all of that took a backseat for the Big Ten commissioner on Thursday at media days in Chicago. Understandably, the spotlight was on Ohio State’s scandalfilled offseason that led to the

Buckeyes casting off coach Jim Tressel and quarterback Terrelle Pryor. “Coach Tressel made a mistake and he paid dearly for that mistake,” Delany said. “University of Michigan had a problem with out-of-season practice, that was an embarrassment. This year we have Ohio State getting ready to go in front of the infractions committee on August 12th. That’s embarrassing. “Neither one of those institutions have a history of being in that situation. It not only has reflected poorly on them, it’s reflected poorly on us. I explained to each of those coaches that going forward we do not want two more such cases, and that they are the CEOs of their program. They hire the assistant coaches.

“People do make mistakes, but it’s how those mistakes are managed and how people address those that’s more important than the underlying mistake.” Delany also followed up on recent comments by SEC commissioner Mike Slive and ACC commissioner John Swofford that called for sweeping reforms to an NCAA rulebook that has not evolved with the times. “It could probably fairly be described as a system established in the ’50s and stuck in the ’70s,” Delany said. “I think that there’s going to be a need to really look at it – look at it seriously – upgrade it for the 21st century so that we’re going to be able to continue to put forward teams sponsored by institutions of higher education without being embar-

rassed by the actions that occur off the field, not on the field.” Wisconsin coach Bret Bielema was particularly blunt when asked about the negative headlines that have dominated college football since last fall. “If I had a dream world, I would say hammer the guys that don’t do things right,” Bielema said. “The only thing I get very frustrated about is when I know things go on that aren’t right, mainly in recruiting. That’s the biggest thing that comes across my desk. People are willingly and knowingly abusing rules and breaking things. “When you consciously break an NCAA rule, to me the only way to deter that is to get rid of people, or seriously hold programs accountable.”

Through four innings, the Yankees had six hits and five of them were two-baggers, and it helped build a 3-2 lead. Buffalo drew even on a Valentino Pascucci home run off SWB starter Greg Smith to lead off the sixth. Smith wriggled his way out a jam later in the frame, getting Jesus Feliciano to ground into an inning-ending double play with the bases loaded. The Yanks, meanwhile, were held hitless for three straight innings until Vazquez’ league-leading 24th homer. “When he hits them, they’re big ones,” Yankees manager Dave Miley said. Vazquez’s latest was no sure shot. He snuck the ball just inside

pitching prospect Zack Wheeler. The addition of Beltran should bolster a sagging offense that’s near the bottom in the major statistical categories. Beltran started in right field and batted third. He contributed defensively, making a sliding catch to rob Jimmy Rollins of a hit on a shallow fly in the fifth. Beltran’s streak of reaching base safely was snapped at 32 games. Phillies starter Kyle Kendrick (5-5) gave up four runs — three earned — and six hits in 6 1-3 innings. The Giants went up 2-0 in the fourth when Nate Schierholtz ripped an RBI single. Aubrey Huff hit a two-out double and scored on Schierholtz’s liner to right-center.

The two-time NL Cy Young Award winner allowed three hits, struck out six and worked around four walks. The Phillies hadn’t lost consecutive games since June 4. They went a club-record 45 straight games without dropping two straight. Sandoval gave the NL West leaders a 1-0 lead when he led off the second inning with an opposite-field shot to left. It was Sandoval’s 10th homer, becoming the first Giant to reach double digits this season. Beltran hit 15 for the Mets before he was traded to San Francisco for

key to keeping clean. “Oh, boy. Maybe we’re lucky – I don’t know,” Paterno said. “What the good Lord said – don’t be the first one to cast the rock. I preach all the time. I tell our alumni all the time, ‘Stay out of it.’ “We try to keep them informed as to what they can do legally, what they can’t do legally. I’m constantly talking to the staff about (it). … If (a recruit) wants to horse around with something, or he suggests that maybe he wants something – walk away, walk away. That doesn’t mean we’ve always walked away. “I try to keep track of it. It’s nice to know we haven’t had a major violation. I’m proud of that. I’m not going around gloating about it.”

Even Penn State isn’t immune to NCAA issues. Coach Joe Paterno admitted during a taping of an ESPN special earlier this month that he had seen part of an offseason workout while walking past the team’s practice facility. Paterno said Thursday that the school self-reported the violation. “We’re not allowed to watch them in preseason,” Paterno said. “I got in a jam because I’m walking by, the kids are running around, I walk by and watch them. … We had to turn ourselves in. I’m not even supposed to watch them run.” Penn State is one of only a handful of programs nationwide that has never faced NCAA sanctions, though Paterno downplayed it when asked about the

good.” Part of the reason Paterno has more energy this summer is because he believes that won’t be the case again in 2011. Penn State has done very well with

veteran teams since that losing stretch from 2000-04, with the Nittany Lions’ two most experienced squads winning the Big Ten in 2005 and 2008. Both of those teams, however, featured a breakout performance by a quarterback. At the moment, Paterno said he still has no timetable for naming a starter between junior Matt McGloin and sophomore Rob

Bolden. “I think we’ll be better (at the position),” Paterno said. “Whether we’re gonna be good enough, I don’t know. … Everybody seems to be enthused. “The quarterbacks, they’ll stop by the office every once in a while. I’ll say, ‘How you doing? Are your studies OK?’ That kind of stuff. But I think we’re gonna be better there.”

the right-field foul pole off Bisons reliever Brian Sweeney (4-5). “When you go opposite field like that, that (shows) some power,” Miley said. “Even though it just skated over, he possesses a whole lot of power.” Of his 24 home runs this season, Vazquez has eight against Buffalo. “This is a good ballpark to hit

home runs,” said Vazquez through an interpreter. “The ball went over the fence and I’m happy with it.” Doug Bernier added an RBI single and Kevin Russo had a sacrifice fly later in the eighth. Yankees reliever Buddy Carlyle (2-2) was the beneficiary, recording the win after coming on in the seventh and setting down Buffalo in order. He did the same in the eighth, and Randy Flores worked the ninth for his fourth save. Luis Nunez connected for a pair of doubles, driving in Jordan Parraz with each. Parraz also had two doubles and scored twice, continuing his torrid streak in which he has hit in 13 straight games. He is 6-for-11 in the three games in Buffalo. Nunez doubled in Parraz in the second and fourth innings, while Parraz doubled in Brandon Laird

in the fourth to make the score 3-0. The Bisons, though, countered with two runs in the fourth on a Feliciano single. The six-game winning streak is the Yankees’ longest since running off an eight-gamer last August, when the club was en route to the I.L. North Division title. This year’s streak hasn’t helped the Yankees make up much ground. They began the stretch five games behind firstplace Lehigh Valley, but the IronPigs won five in a row too before a lossearlierThursdaytoPawtucket. The Yankees now trail Lehigh Valley by four games and remain a game back of the Red Sox. Laird was 2-of-5 with two runs scored in his first Triple-A game since being optioned back from his first major league stint with the New York Yankees.

draft — and this one is heading fast in the same direction. What that means for recruiting efforts in the next few seasons — even if UNC doesn’t lose any scholarships — practically guarantees at least five more years of mediocrity. Speaking of time, it’s been a dozen years now since university presidents took control of the NCAA with a mandate to clean up the shady dealings in the two big revenue-producing sports and sign a truce on “an athletic arms race.” What they did instead was hide the

brooms, ramp up their own budgets and promise to behave better. The scandals look the same now as they did then: academic fraud, cheating coaches, corner-cutting recruiters, athletes devising schemes to get paid and agents hanging around preying on easy marks. The only real difference is that the top college brass now must stand in front of microphones and explain why they didn’t know, let alone act, when they should have. “We tried to hold things together and restore confi-

dence in the football program, and I felt in order for us to have a fair chance for that, I would have to support coach Davis,” Thorp said. “I’ve come to the conclusion that we’ve given that enough time, and now it’s time for us to take the actions that we’re taking.” Like everything else about this story from the start, chancellor, too late.

tract with the Cardinals. Rodgers-Cromartie, who went to the Pro Bowl in 2009, will play opposite four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Asante Samuel in Philadelphia, shoring up a pass defense that struggled last season. All Washington got for Haynesworth, meanwhile, was a 2013 fifth-round pick. By shipping the defensive tackle to New England, the Redskins rid themselves of a two-year distraction and fiasco of a free-agent signing — Haynesworth was guaranteed a then-record $41 million in the sevenyear, $100 million contract he signed in the early hours of free agency in 2009. On the same day, he infamously declared: “You’re not going to remember Albert Haynesworth as a bust.” Hmmmmmm. Haynesworth played in only 20 games for Washington, making 61⁄2 sacks, and was in constant legal trouble away from the field. Last season, he feuded with Shanahan and was suspended for the final four games for conduct detrimental to the club. The Dolphins finalized their trade for Bush by negotiating a new two-year contract for nearly $10 million with the running back, a person familiar with the talks told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity because the teams had yet to announce the deal. It wasn’t immediately known what the Saints would receive in the deal. “Change is never easy but I look forward to building something special in Miami and can’t wait to embark on this new journey!” Bush wrote on Twitter. In other transactions Thursday: • Linebacker Clint Session left the Colts but stayed in the AFC South when he agreed to a fiveyear deal with the Jacksonville Jaguars worth slightly more than $29 million, with $11.5 million in guaranteed money. • Dallas made official nine cuts, many of them leaked previously. Gone are tackle Marc Colombo, guard Leonard Davis, receiver Roy Williams, running back Marion Barber, placekicker Kris Brown, offensive linemen Robert Brewster and Travis Bright, linebacker Kelvin Smith and receiver Troy Bergeron. • Buffalo agreed to a four-year contract worth about $15 million

with Brad Smith, the versatile receiver-running back-kick returner who was a force in the wildcat formation with the Jets. • In addition to officially releasing quarterback Delhomme, Cleveland terminated the contract of linebacker Eric Alexander and waived tight end Tyson DeVree. Delhomme, 36, was signed to a two-year contract a year ago and played in only five games. • Atlanta agreed to a one-year contract with linebacker Mike Peterson, who started 13 games last year with the Falcons, making 79 tackles, two interceptions, two fumble recoveries and forcing one fumble. • Minnesota released starting safety Madieu Williams, who spent three seasons there but was largely a disappointment after signing a big-money deal to come over from Cincinnati in 2008. He was due to make $5.4 million this season. The Vikings also released defensive tackle Jimmy Kennedy and receiver Freddie Brown. • The Redskins added freeagent defensive end Stephen Bowen, whose agent announced the deal on Twitter. Bowen played five seasons with the Cowboys; he had 11⁄2 sacks in nine starts last year. • Philadelphia put defensive end Brandon Graham (left knee) and offensive tackle Winston Justice (left knee) on the physically unable to perform list. Also, wide receiver Jeremy Maclin and cornerback Samuel were excused from training camp for personal reasons. • Linebacker Justin Durant is leaving Jacksonville for Detroit; receiver Rashied Davis also agreed to join the Lions after six years in Chicago. • New Orleans left tackle Jermon Bushrod agreed to a twoyear deal to remain with the Saints. He’s been a key part of Drew Brees’ pass protection. • Daryn Colledge, the starting left guard for the Super Bowl champion Packers, agreed to a five-year deal with Arizona. Colledge started 76 games over five seasons for Green Bay. • Linebacker and special teams standout Matt McCoy is returning to Seattle after agreeing to a one-year deal. • The Bears agreed to a fiveyear contract with punter Adam Podlesh, who comes to Chicago from Jacksonville to replace Brad Maynard, whose contract expired after 10 years at Soldier Field.

U.S. SOCCER

Bradley dismissed as coach of U.S. men’s team Gold Cup loss to Mexico at Rose Bowl possibly played a part in the firing. By CHRIS JENKINS AP Sports Writer

For U.S. soccer fans, the scene was tough to watch: Archrival Mexico celebrating a Gold Cup victory on American soil, cheered on by a largely pro-Mexico crowd at the Rose Bowl. A little more than a month later, Bob Bradley has been fired as coach of the U.S. men’s soccer team. Bradley led the team to big moments during his tenure, including Landon Donovan’s heart-stopping goal to secure a place in the round of 16 at last year’s World Cup in South Africa and an unforgettable victory over Spain in 2009.

“During his time as the head coach of our Men’s National Team he led the team to a number of accomplishments, but we felt now was the right time for us to make a change.”

But to some, the disappointing Gold Cup loss to a Mexico team that seems to be on the upswing was another Bradley sign that the U.S. team’s progress has stalled under Bradley. “We want to thank Bob Bradley for his service and dedication to U.S. Soccer during the past five years,” U.S. Soccer Federation president Sunil Gulati said in a statement. “During his time as the head coach of our Men’s National Team he led the team to a number of accomplishments, but we felt now was the right time for us to make a change. It is always hard to make these decisions, especially when it involves someone we respect as much as Bob. We wish him

the best in his future endeavors.” Now another coach will be given the chance to lead the Americans into another World Cup qualifying cycle beginning next year. The next World Cup is in Brazil in 2014. With a Mexico rematch looming, an Aug. 10 exhibition in Philadelphia, U.S. Soccer likely will move quickly to select Bradley’s replacement. The federation said it will have a “further announcement” today but did not

provide details. The United States has long been linked with a move for Juergen Klinsmann, former coach and player for the German national team. Other foreign coaches might be in the mix. But the federation also might consider an up-and-coming coach in MLS, Real Salt Lake’s Jason Kreis. The dismissal comes nearly a year after Bradley was given a contract extension to continue coaching the team through

ers’ potential at an earlier age. Although many current U.S. national team players have proven themselves good enough to join European club teams, too many get stuck on the bench when they make it overseas. Bradley was chosen as coach in January 2007 and went 43-2512 overall. Highlights include the victory over Spain and near-upset of Brazil in the 2009 Confederations Cup, along with last year’s World Cup. But the U.S. team is having a rough 2011. First came Spain’s 4-0 rout of the U.S. in an exhibition, followed by a head-scratching 2-1 loss to Panama early in the Gold Cup. The U.S. rallied to make it to the Gold Cup championship game, but the 4-2 loss was seen as a setback for U.S. soccer after the team blew a 2-0 lead.

2014. But even as Bradley was given a new deal, there were concerns that the team had hit its ceiling. Yes, the U.S. made it to the round of 16 in last year’s World Cup — but it needed Donovan’s last-minute heroics to make it out of what was seen as a relatively easy group, then was eliminated by Ghana in a game many thought was winnable. Bradley’s supporters would point out that he has made the most of a group of players who generally can outwork rival teams, but lack the technical skills and finishing touch of the world’s elite. U.S. Soccer is in the middle of overhauling its youth development system, an effort led by former U.S. captain Claudio Reyna. The hope is to grow a new generation of elite soccer players by identifying and nourishing play-

Brickyard 400 taking on title sponsor in 2012 By MICHAEL MAROT AP Sports Writer

INDIANAPOLIS — Crown Royal wants to take its shot in a new NASCAR venue. On Thursday, the distiller said it had agreed to become the new title sponsor of the Brickyard 400. Track and company officials did not provide financial details, saying only that it was a multiyear contract. This year’s Brickyard 400 is scheduled for Sunday. Starting in 2012, the race will be renamed the Crown Royal “Your Hero’s Name Goes Here” 400 at the Brickyard. The company plans to hold a contest to select the fan’s name that will be incorporated into the title, as it did previously at Richmond. “We’ll continue to look for ways to partner with Richmond as we move forward, but at this

time, we’re focusing on the Brickyard,” said Heather Boyd, the company’s senior brand manager. “The NASCAR community has always been very important to Crown Royal and has been very loyal to our business. We’re still trying to figure out how to engage that moving forward.” Overall, though, Crown Royal is expected to reduce the amount of money it spends in Sprint Cup next season. In June, the company said it would drop its sponsorship of Roush Fenway Racing after this season, and parent company Diageo said it would not renew its deal as an official NASCAR part-

ner. Crown Royal has been the primary sponsor of Matt Kenseth’s car the last two seasons, and before that had sponsored Kurt Busch and Jamie McMurray. Boyd said it was still possible the company could play a bigger role than expected in Cup racing next season and becoming title sponsor of the biggest stock car race outside of the South will achieve part of the company’s goal. “We’ll look at our options,” Boyd said. Crown Royal also may benefit from the Nationwide Series and Grand-Am races being held on Indy’s historic track for the first time next summer. Speedway CEO Jeff Belskus hopes a revised schedule reinvigorates interest in a race that has seen attendance steadily dwin-

dle. Last year’s race drew an estimated 140,000 fans, a record low, and this weekend may not be much better. In May, Belskus said ticket sales were running behind last year’s pace and expressed concern about the potential for even more empty seats this time. Since then, track organizers have announced several promotional events, ranging from additional concerts to a beach bash in the third turn on race day, in an attempt to sell more tickets. Ticket holders from the inaugural Cup race at Kentucky, which was beset by traffic problems, can even attend today’s practice session for free and will receive $5 off the ticket price and free parking for Saturday’s qualifications. Whether it’s the promotions, the timing or more interest, Bel-

PRO GOLF

skus acknowledged ticket sales have improved and that organizers believe there could be stronger walk-up sales this weekend, too. But the race will be nowhere near a sellout. Belskus said five grandstand sections will be closed on race day. It’s not the first time track officials have closed the grandstands. Speedway spokesman Doug Boles said it was done previously for the MotoGP and Formula One races that were held on the track’s road course — encompassing only about half of the traditional oval. “It looks like we’ll have well over100,000 people here and that still qualifies as one of the largest events on the Sprint Cup circuit,” Belskus said. “But we’d always like to sell more, and I hope we do sell more.”

Belskus contends the attendance decline has more to do with a lagging economy, high gas prices, the tire fiasco of 2008 and the increase in Cup races throughout the Midwest than a lack of interest. And he points to attendance declines at other NASCAR tracks, including Bristol and Talladega, as evidence. “What we’re seeing here is typical with what much of NASCAR is seeing. You’ve seen soft attendance the last couple of years and we’re no different,” Belskus said. Crown Royal is banking on the fact Indy is different. “This partnership gives us the chance to take our national program to the next level at one of the most historic venues in motorsports,” Diageo North American Whisky vice president Yvonne Briese said in a statement.

Successful trainer now seeks an upset

Olin Browne drives on the ninth hole during the first round of the U.S. Senior Open golf tournament at the Inverness Club in Toledo, Ohio, Thursday.

Browne takes early lead in U.S. Senior JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — Tiger Woods returns to golf next week at the Bridgestone Invitational, ending an 11-week break to heal injuries to his left leg. Woods announced the decision on his website on Thursday. On his Twitter account, Woods says he’s “feeling fit and ready to tee it up at Firestone next week. Excited to get back out there!” It marks the third-longest layoff of his career, only this time Woods returns with as much uncertainty about his future as ever. Along with questions about the strength of his left knee and Achilles’, he embarks on this latest comeback with a new caddie. Woods has plunged to No. 21 in the world — his lowest ranking since Jan. 26, 1997.

at Canterbury in Cleveland. Amateur Damon Green, better known as Zach Johnson’s caddie, was at 67 with former U.S. Open champion Steve Jones and Mark Wiebe. Another shot back at 68 were former British Open winner Mark Calcavecchia, U.S. Open winner Corey Pavin and PGA Championship victor Jeff Sluman, along with Steve Pate, Tommy Armour III, Jim Thorpe, Kiyoshi Murota and Trevor Dodds. Seemingly ageless Hale Irwin was up to his usual tricks. The winner of three U.S. Opens, including the 1979 edition at Inverness Club, was once again in contention in a major at age 66. He shot a 69. There were 35 players who broke par and another 11 who equaled it. Defending champion Bernhard Langer, still rounding into shape after rehabbing a thumb injury for 4 months, shot a 70. He was joined at 1 under by Russ Cochran, coming off a major championship victory a week ago at the Senior British Open. Trevor Immelman leads at Greenbrier Classic WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.Va. — Trevor Immelman shot a 6-under 64 Thursday for a one-stroke lead after the first round of the Greenbrier Classic. The former Masters champion carded seven birdies and a bogey on the redesigned Old White TPC course for his best

round of the year. The South African missed the cut in last year’s inaugural event and is seeking his first top-10 finish since having wrist surgery in 2009. Gary Woodland, Billy Mayfair, Derek Lamely, Webb Simpson and Steven Bowditch

Belmont. “He hasn’t shown any signs of being tired,” Romans said, adding that he gave the colt two weeks off after the Triple Crown races . “He came out of his little vacation eager to train and his last two works were all on his own and he went around there as good as he’s ever gone.” Coil is far from a long shot, even if he didn’t run in any Triple Crown races. The son of Point Given is the 3-1 second choice with three wins and a narrow loss in the Swaps Stakes in his last four starts. The chestnut colt drew the No. 1 post, and will be ridden by Martin Garcia. “My horses always run well there (at Monmouth),” Baffert said, referring to past Haskell winners Point Given (2001), War Emblem (2002), Roman Ruler (2005) and Lookin At Lucky, all of whom won at least one Triple Crown race. “I always bring a good one there, and that helps.” Also entered in the 11⁄8-mile, Grade 1 race are Ruler On Ice’s stablemate Pants On Fire, Joe Vann, Concealed Identity, JJ’s Lucky Train and Astrology.

TOLEDO, Ohio — Olin Browne eagled two holes in a five-hole span down the stretch and finished with a 7-under 64 Thursday for a two-stroke lead after the opening round of the U.S. Senior Open. Browne, a three-time winner on the PGA Tour in his third year on the over-50 circuit, had four birdies, two eagles and a bogey. At 2 under and three shots off the pace on his 13th hole, he hit a hybrid-3 from 216 yards that came to rest 6 feet from the pin at the par-5 4th and then rolled in the putt for eagle. His next eagle was far more dramatic. He laid up with a 4-iron second shot on the par-5 8th and had 97 yards left. His wedge landed just over the flag, then spun back into the cup as he cast a stunned look at caddie Otis Moore. Over the six holes numbered 3 through 8, he went 6 under, and picked up five shots on par in a span of five holes. The 64 tied for the lowest first round ever at a U.S. Senior Open, matching Bruce Fleisher (2000), R.W. Eaks (2002) and Craig Stadler (2005). It was also the lowest Champions Tour score for Browne, although in the final rounds of his only two previous U.S. Senior Opens he had shot 65 and 66. Playing late on an oppressively humid day at lengthy Inverness Club, Browne was two strokes clear of Mark O’Meara and Michael Allen, who each shot bogey-free 66s. O’Meara, whose last two PGA victories came in the 1998 Masters and British Open, used an old set of irons while fighting off jet lag from a frequent-flyer’s dream trip over the past few weeks. Allen’s only Seniors victory came in another major championship in Ohio, the 2009 Senior PGA

Bob Baffert is coming to the Jersey Shore in the role of spoiler. Certainly, that’s a change since the Hall of Fame trainer has won the $1 million Haskell Invitational at Monmouth Park four times in four tries with four favorites, including last year with Lookin At Lucky. This time, the white-haired Baffert will send out the lateblooming Coil to try and spring a surprise against the likes of Preakness winner Shackleford and Belmont Stakes winner Ruler On Ice. “He’s training as good as any horse that I’ve brought in, but his resume is not as strong as the others,” Baffert said Thursday on a conference call. “I think he’s going to run a big race. We’ll just have to see whether he has the class.” The class of the eight-horse field is Shackleford, the 5-2 morning-line favorite trained by Dale Romans. Shackleford was fourth in the Derby, held off Derby winner Animal Kingdom in the Preakness and ran fifth in the

The first look at 2Q GDP

Another Big Oil report

So how weak was the economy during the second quarter? The Commerce Department’s report on the gross domestic product is expected to show that it was in worse shape than during the first three months of the year. We already know some of the reasons: weak job growth, a stagnant housing market and the impact of the earthquake and tsunami in Japan. Investors will want to know if there’s any other bad news from the quarter.

Merck’s plans for the future While investors want to see Merck’s second-quarter earnings report today, they’re likely to be more interested in what’s ahead. Like other drug companies, Merck has been losing patent protection on some of its top drugs. Others, including its asthma and allergy drug Singulair, will lose protection in the next few years. Investors want to hear about Merck’s plans for a new Hepatitis C drug and its new skin cancer drug.

Stocks stumble again

A late sell-off wiped out the stock market’s gains Thursday as investors worried that a bill headed for a vote in the House of Representatives would fail to break a stalemate over raising the country’s debt limit. The market was up for much of the day but started to sink in the last halfhour of trading. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said in the afternoon that the House bill wouldn’t get a single Democratic vote in the Senate, meaning it would fail. Sprint Nextel Corp. shares fell 15.9 percent. The nation’s No. 3 wireless carrier said its loss widened in the second quarter, partly because of a tax expense and investment losses.

WASHINGTON — The nation’s health care bill is on track to hit $4.6 trillion in 2020, accounting for about $1of every $5 in theeconomy,governmentnumbercrunchers estimate in a report released Thursday. How much is that? Including government and private money, health care spending in 2020 will average $13,710 for every man, woman and child, says Medicare’s Office of the Actuary. Compare it to this year, when U.S. health care spending is projected to top $2.7 tril-

lion, about $8,650 per capita, or roughly $1 of $6 in the economy. Most of those dollars go to provide care for the sickest people. Along with rising costs, the report found that the share of the health care tab paid by the government keeps growing, approaching half the total. The update from Medicare economists and statisticians is an annual barometer of a trend that many experts say is unsustainable, but doesn’t seem to be slowing. The analysis found that President Barack Obama’s health care overhaul would only be a modest contributor to growing costs, even

though an additional 30 million otherwise uninsured people stand to gain coverage. Instead, health care spending keeps growing faster than the economy because of high cost of medical innovations and an aging society. Separately, another new report finds that the U.S. continues to spend far more on health care than other economically developed countries. The study by the Commonwealth Fund found that U.S. spending per person in 2008 was more than double the median — or midpoint— for other leading economies.

Sanofi saw its earnings slump 41 percent in the second quarter from a year earlier as growing competition from generic alternatives ate into sales of its more expensive drugs and offset gains from the recent acquisition of U.S. biotechnology firm Genzyme. The company said its net profit fell to (euro) 1 billion ($1.44 billion) in the second quarter from (euro) 1.7 billion a year earlier. Sales of its anti-clotting drug Lovenox and breast and prostate cancer drug Taxotere fell sharply due to generic competition in the U.S. Sanofi’s vaccine unit is headquartered in Swiftwater, Monroe County.

A trustee recovering money for investors who lost billions of dollars through Wall Street swindler Bernard Madoff’s dealings says he’s secured more than a billion dollars through settlements with associates of the second largest feeder fund group to invest with Madoff. Trustee Irving Picard announced Thursday the settlement will boost recoveries of money available to jilted investors to more than $8.6 billion. He says that’s nearly half the approximately $17.3 billion in principal lost by Madoff.

Starbucks profit grows

Starbucks Corp. says stronger sales helped drive its third-quarter net income up 33 percent. The Seattle-based coffee giant said Thursday that it drew more customers and they spent slightly more than a year earlier. It earned $887.4 million, or 36 cents per share, for the quarter. That is up from $666.7 million, or 27 cents per share. Revenue rose 12 percent to $2.93 billion.

Banks aid Greece

The French Finance Ministry says that French banks and insurers have promised to give Greece easier lending terms on 15 billion euros ($21 billion) in bonds they hold. The contribution of the private sector, estimated at 106 billion euros by 2020, is a central part of a second rescue package for Greece, and will be supplemented by 109 billion euros in loans from the eurozone and the IMF.

Hard to keep Focus

By RON BARTIZEK rbartizek@timesleader.com

Coccia Ford General Manager Greg Martin would like to get more of the popular Focus model if he could. “If they could build more, we’d be happy to have more,” Martin said Thursday, the day a report surfaced that Ford can’t keep up with demand because of equipment problems that have caused a shortage of dashboards. Machinery that makes the skin that covers dashboards at a Ford parts factory outside Detroit works intermittently, two people familiar with the situation told The Associated Press. That is forcing the company to take the unusual and costly step of flying in parts from Europe to keep its assembly lines moving, the people said. Despitethoseefforts,theFocusplantnearDetroit can’t run at full speed, they said. The problem comes at a time when high

gas prices and shortages of Japanese small cars have driven up demand for the Focus. Martin had not heard of the alleged problem but said he hasn’t been able to get as many Focuses as he’d like for the Plains Township dealership that he said is the top volume seller in the company’s region that encompasses eastern Pennsylvania, including Philadelphia, and much of New Jersey. “That’s news to me,” he said of the report. He attributed the shortage in part to the popularity of the redesigned compact that is Ford’s top-selling passenger car. More than 21,000 Focuses were sold last month. “The demand is so high, that yes, our supply is much lower than it’s been in past years,” he said. Cars like the Focus that get high gas mileage, “are flying off the lot,” Martin said, selling as quickly as he can get them. He estimated the dealership will sell 200

Oil giant’s income a bit lower By JOE CARROLL Bloomberg News

CHICAGO — Exxon Mobil Corp. on Thursday reported lower- than-expected second-quarter net income as a slump in international refining profits limited the impact of higher oil prices for the world’s largest publicly traded oil company. Net income rose 41 percent to $10.68 billion, or $2.18 a share, from $7.56 billion, or $1.60, a year earlier, the Irving, Texas-based company said. The results were 16 cents lower than the $2.34 a share expected, based on the average estimate of 18 analysts in a Bloomberg survey. “Downstream profitability, particularly for a highly global company like Exxon, is always just notoriously difficult to forecast,” said Pavel Molchanov an analyst at Raymond James & Associates in Houston. Molchanov said he expected refining earnings of about $2 billion in the quarter, while the segment reported $1.36 billion of profit. Refining, or downstream, earnings from outside the U.S. fell 20 percent in the second quarter from a year earlier to $622 million. Total refining earnings climbed $136 million. Exxon’s second-quarter net income was 4 cents a share higher than in the first quarter, while oil prices averaged 8.2 percent higher. Oil futures in New York averaged $102.34 a barrel in the second quarter, 31 percent higher than the $78.05 a barrel a year earlier as economic expansion stoked energy demand and a civil war in Libya disrupted oil exports. Exxon isn’t expected to top Thursday’s results for at least the rest of this year, Bloomberg’s survey of analysts shows, amid signs that the oil rally may be cooling. “For the second quarter, crude and gasoline prices were higher, but we’re starting to see some inklings of a softening in demand later in the year,” said Douglas Ober, chief executive officer of the $837 million Petroleum & Resources Corp. fund in Baltimore, whose largest holding is Exxon stock. Chief Executive Officer Rex Tillerson has orchestrated $38 billion in acquisitions since June 2010 to amass natural-gas fields and the expertise to exploit them. Exxon plans to purchase more gas reserves and is assessing targets in more than a dozen gas-rich shale-rock formations worldwide, Jack Williams, president of Exxon’s XTO Energy unit, said in a July 20 interview.

Jobless benefit applications dip below 400K By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON — The number of people seeking unemployment benefits dropped last week to the lowest level since early April, a sign the job market may be healing after a recent slump. The Labor Department said Thursday that weekly applications fell 24,000 to a seasonally adjusted 398,000. That’s the first time applications have fallen below 400,000 in 16 weeks. The four-week average, a less volatile measure, dropped to 413,750, the lowest since the week of April 23. Economists cautioned that the lower level only reflects one week of data and that doesn’t necessarily signal a trend. The drop “is clearly good news,” said Joshua Shapiro, an economist at MFR

Separately, the National Association of Realtors said more people signed contracts to buy homes in June for the second straight month. But the increase was not enough to signal a rebound in the weak housing market. The Realtors group said its index of sales agreements for previously occupied homes rose 2.4 percent in June to a reading of 90.9.

able. Analysts forecast that the economy grew in the April-June quarter by an annual rate of only 1.7 percent, the second straight quarter of anemic expansion. The government reports on secondquarter growth today. Many economists are becoming more pessimistic about the second half of this year. Goldman Sachs recently cut its estimate for growth in the JulySeptember period to 2.5 percent, down from 3.25 percent. JPMorgan, meanwhile, reduced its estimate to 2.5 percent from 3 percent. Growth of about 2.5 percent is barely enough to reduce the unemployment rate. The economy would need to grow 5 percent for a whole year to bring down the rate by one percentage point.

What’s next for Dow: 12k or 13k? Market watchers are split over what stocks will do after there’s a deal on the government’s borrowing limit. Two of them, AP financial markets writers Matthew Craft and David K. Randall, give their opinions on whether the Dow Jones industrial average will reach 13,000 or tumble down to 12,000.

It’s easy to think that the market will keep falling. But don’t underestimate investors’ greed. Eighty percent of the 190 companies in the S&P 500 that have reported second-quarter results have beaten Wall Street’s estimates. Earnings from Microsoft, Coca-Cola and IBM had the Dow above 12,700 just a week ago. And as Dunkin’ Donut’s 46 percent pop on its first day of trading Wednesday shows, investors aren’t running for the hills. Once a deal is signed, expect a relief rally that even a one-notch credit downgrade might not extinguish. Why? Because big U.S. companies, including those in the Dow, have overseas operations and rely less than ever on domestic business for profits. Companies in countries like Spain or Greece tend to have operations that are regional rather than global. Corporations have proven over the last three years that they know how to manage uncertain times. There’s no reason to think that will change once there’s a new borrowing limit.

How long till the Dow reaches 12,000? Give it a few days. Big investors still believe Republicans and President Obama will agree to raise the borrowing limit in time to prevent the U.S. from defaulting on its debt after Aug. 2. But with the deadline uncomfortably close, many are cashing out just in case. The Dow is down 441 points this week. Expect more losses as the haggling drags on. Maybe that’s what Washington needs. A 777point drop in the Dow in September 2008 is credited with forcing the House to pass a bill bailing out financial firms. An agreement to lift the debt ceiling could send relieved investors back into stocks and set off a celebratory rally. But there’s still a problem. Standard & Poor’s has warned that anything less than $4 trillion in budget cuts will likely mean the U.S. loses its top AAA rating. When rating agencies downgrade countries – as we’ve seen with Spain, Greece and Japan – their stocks sink.

Another very warm and very humid air mass moved in last night. Along with some hazy sunshine today, conditions will be ripe for thunderstorms to develop. Stronger updrafts in some of the storms bring the potential for hail and damaging winds. The chance for rain will last into early tonight and then by midnight the wind will shift, a sign that improving weather will arrive for tomorrow and Sunday. Along with a good deal of sunshine and lower humidty both days, expect little or no chance for rain. Starting next week, our normal trend in high temperature begins to fall from 83 to 82. - Tom Clark
