• The Aug. 10 sale starts at 10 a.m. in the county courthouse in Wilkes-Barre. • Bidders must register by 4:30 p.m. Tuesday. • Bidders must complete paperwork certifying that they have no delinquent property taxes or municipal utility bills within the county. Prospective bidders must also verify that they have not had

a landlord license revoked in the county and are not acting as an agent for someone with a revoked license. • Information on bidding is available by calling the county tax claim office at 825-1512 or visiting the office’s website, www.luzernecountytaxclaim.com (click on the judicial sale heading at the left of the main page).

mercial office building on John Street in Pittston Township, a commercial warehouse on South Main Street in Wilkes-Barre and a retail/food establishment on Main Street in Duryea are also on the auction list.

It may be the end for a wellknown sports bar that became involved in an illegal gambling investigation. The Pennsylvania Liquor Control Board elected not to renew the liquor license for Patte’s Sports Bar, which had been operating on a temporary license for about a year. Stacey Witalec, LCB spokeswoman, said the decision not to renew the license was made by the board on Wednesday. Pat Patte, 72, Patte who is serving a three-year federal probation sentence on a gambling charge, could not be reached for comment. His lawyer, Michael Butera, said he had not heard about the board’s decision. Butera said a hearing was held before a LCB hearing examiner in Scranton in May to renew Patte’s liquor license. Witalec said Patte can appeal the board’s decision and that could allow him to remain open. Patte, Mark G. Fino, 53, an employee at the sports bar, and Christopher Marion were charged by federal authorities in February 2010 with operating an Internet-based betting ring, willtobet.com. Prosecutors said bettors made wagers through the website, then paid their losses or collected their winnings at the

Some sites are out of sight Some real beauties could be had at a fraction of their worth at auction next week. By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

Three former restaurants, a law office, attractive homes, sizeable swaths of land and several apartment buildings are among the 500 properties slated for auction in next week’s Luzerne County back-tax sale. Attorney John Rodgers, who heads the company overseeing the county’s tax claim office, said he’s trying to promote the properties listed in the Aug. 10 sale to make more people aware that they’re up for grabs at a fraction

of their worth. Bidding typically starts around $800 because this type of sale is designed to cover only the county’s costs to get the properties to auction. As indicated by the name of the sale – “free and clear” – the debt attached to these properties disappears for buyers who submit the highest bids, said Rodgers, of Northeast Revenue Service LLC. Back taxes, mortgages and other liens against these properties are forgiven. “There are some really good deals out there,” Rodgers said. “We’d like to see more people come out and bid.” His company prepared a list of some of the highest valued properties in an effort to showcase

South Hancock, South Welles streets, the bad areas, no fares are getting picked up or dropped off there.” But McCracken said Burgit cannot make such a change without approval from the PUC. And such permission would almost certainly be denied, she said. “To discontinue service to those areas, the owner would have to file an amendment to discontinue that territory stating that he only serves a certain area. As part of this process, he would be susceptible to protests from the public and hearings would have to be held,” McCracken said.

Taxi company owner Robbie Burgit said Tuesday that as a result of the robberies, he decided to eliminate service to certain sections of Wilkes-Barre. He said pickups and drop-offs at Sherman Hills Apartments, South Hancock Street, South Welles Street and a handful of other areas will have either reduced or restricted service or no service at all. “Certain trouble spots will be avoided, especially at night,” Burgit said Tuesday while standing outside his business on See TAXI, Page 10A

POLICE BLOTTER WILKES-BARRE -- City police late Wednesday night were investigating a report of a large fight in the area of Moyallen and Loomis streets. An officer on the scene said there were injuries involved. An ambulance was seen leaving the scene with at least one person on a stretcher. The fight involving a group of people broke out around 11 p.m. Five cruisers reponded. Police were still trying to sort out the extent of the altercation as of late Wednesday night. HANOVER TWP. – Steven Brannigan, 20, of Mark Drive, was arrested Wednesday on a charge of hindering apprehension or prosecution, police said. Police said they spoke to Brannigan on Monday as part of an ongoing investigation and he told them he was alone in an apartment at 1413 Mark Drive, even though they saw two men enter the residence. When Brannigan’s mother arrived, she allowed in police, who found Thomas Owens inside, police said. Owens was wanted on a warrant from Luzerne County Court. Brannigan was arraigned by District Judge Donald Whittaker and committed to the county prison for lack of $25,000 bail.

SHICKSHINNY COUNCIL

Man files complaint over arrest By TOM HUNTINGTON Times Leader Correspondent

SHICKSHINNY – A resident of a senior high-rise told Borough Council on Tuesday night that he has filed a criminal complaint before District Justice John Hasay against the borough police after he was arrested on July 25 for alleged public drunkenness and harassment. James Sternick, 60, of 19 W. Vine St., alleged he was handcuffed illegally and his driver’s license was stolen. A police report, however, states that Sternick was intoxicated and yelling at persons in a public park adjacent to the apartment complex. The report states police responded to pleas from people at the park who

stated an older man was yelling and pointing a laser beam at them. Police said Sternick used obscenities, smelled of alcohol and initially refused to provide identification to them when they approached him at his apartment. He was arrested and criminal complaints were filed against him. Since a criminal complaint had also been filed by Sternick, council, at the advice of Solicitor Jeffery Malak, declined to make any comment on Sternick’s allegations. Council on a 3-1 vote, with only four members present, gave final approval to a brake retarder ordinance. Francene TearpockMartini cast the dissenting vote

based on a report from state Transportation Department that stated the grade on Butler Street is too steep to ban brake retarders. Otherwise, the ordinance is in effect for the major arteries including Main Street (Route 11) and Union Street (Route 239). Martini said that because the ordinance wasn’t universal throughout the borough, she was opposed to it. During a work session before the public meeting, council heard a presentation from Rick Harmon of Bloomsburg who has applied for the code enforcement position. Harmon outlined his credentials, including doing work in the Hazleton area. Martini questioned why the position

was advertised when the borough already has a code officer. “Are we going to have two officers?” she asked. Councilman Mike Steeber replied, “No. The current person doesn’t fit into our plans.” Jake Baluta commented that the sesquicentennial will be marked with a giant parade on Saturday, starting at 3 p.m.. He said it will include bands, military personnel, floats, politicians, Scouts and firefighters from 46 companies. The parade will form in the area of Shickshinny-Mocanaqua Bridge and will proceed north on Main Street. Traffic will be detoured off Main Street (Route 11) during the parade.

ROSS TOWNSHIP

Supervisors looking to replace backhoe

By EILEEN GODIN Times Leader Correspondent

ROSS TWP. – Two contributing factors – almost 7,000 hours of operation and tough laws for emissions control on heavy equipment – will cause supervisors to seek estimates to replace their current backhoe. On Tuesday night, supervisors agreed to seek prices through the state run COSTARS program to replace their 2001 John Deere backhoe. COSTARS is a cooperative purchasing program through the state to offer competitive pricing for equipment to local municipalities. Due to the complexity of the emission laws, it is not possible to buy parts to install on the present machine. “You cannot update the engine,” he said.

W H AT ’ S N E X T Supervisors will meet at 7 p.m. Sept. 6, in the municipal building.

Supervisor Dave Williams said the backhoe is used almost every day. He said the almost 7,000 hours of operation logged for the machine is high. Heavy-equipment usage is measured in hours versus mileage. In other business, supervisors ordered four new radio communication units at a cost of $3,495. This update was required because the Federal Communication Commission requires all radio systems to operate on narrow-band frequencies versus wide-band frequencies, effective by October.

Drilling mud spills twice

A state environmental agency said that drilling mud from a natural gas pipeline project has spilled into a Northeastern Pennsylvania stream twice in one week. The Department of Environmental Protection said a subcontractor for Laser Northeast Gathering Co. LLC was drilling horizontally underneath Laurel Creek in Susquehanna County on Friday when drilling mud came back up the bore and spilled into the waterway. DEP spokeswoman Katherine Gresh said the operation in Silver Lake Township was shut down over the weekend, but that drilling resumed Tuesday morning and a short time later there was another spill. She said the drilling mud consisted of water and bentonite, a type of clay. It’s not clear how much has spilled into the stream.

The Wright Township Police Department will be setting up DUI checkpoints throughout the area from today through Monday. The state Department of Transportation reminds motorists that driving while intoxicated is a danger to everyone on the road and is illegal. If a motorist is under 21, any measurable alcohol in one’s system constitutes a DUI, according to state law. For motorists over 21, driving with a bloodalcohol level of .08 percent or higher may result in a conviction. DUI conviction could result in penalties of up to two years in prison, a $5,000 fine and a 12-month license suspension, according to a PennDOT news release. DALLAS TWP.

Paperwork glitch means taking on new part-timers is put on hold. Part-time chief also delayed.

ASHLEY – Borough council met Wednesday night in a special meeting to bring on three new, part-time police officers, but the lack of paperwork to hire them scuttled the plans. Council will have to delay the swearing in of the officers that was set for its regularly scheduled meeting next Tuesday. It also will have to hold off on hiring a part-time police chief because there may be additional candidates besides the one who has applied for the position. The borough has been struggling to provide police protection around the clock. Finances forced a cutback in the force and the firing last March of former Chief Dave Cerski after his pregnant ex-girlfriend obtained a protection from abuse order against him further reduced the force to one fulltime officer, Sgt. Joe McGlynn. The state police cover the borough when there is no one else available. The meeting was called with the intent to allow council more time to devote to the agenda for next week, explained council chairman Jim Mullin.

recognized that her son began showing symptoms three years ago, he rebuffed her pleas to seek help, she said on Tuesday in a phone interview from her son’s Florida condo. Maynard flew to Tampa on Monday after learning her son was arrested there last week and committed to temporary detention after a grand jury in Alabama indicted him on July

28. The indictment alleges Klatch, 27, conspired with Timothy Sullivan and others in committing securities fraud. It alleges that between April and October 2009, eight investors sank a bit more than $2.3 million into a hedge fund that Klatch and Sullivan created. Although investors were told that all of their investments had been lost in a single trade, Klatch and Sullivan had invested only about 60 percent of the money. The indictment calls for Klatch to forfeit, upon conviction, $2.3 million in cash, two luxury Land Rover vehicles, a

Ferrari convertible, an Aston Martin roadster, a BMW M3 convertible, a townhouse in Center Valley, Pa., and a Sea Ray boat, all purchased between 2007 and 2011. Maynard, a former Luzerne County Government Study commissioner and director of Citizens Opposing Political Suppression, a grass-roots anti-corruption organization, said she believes delusions of grandeur associated with bipolar disorder led her son to take actions to support a lifestyle of a millionaire. According to WebMD.com, bipolar disorder, formerly called manic depression, is a mental illness that causes peo-

ple to have severe high and low moods. Among the symptoms of bipolar mania are tendencies to make grand and unattainable plans; to show poor judgment, such as deciding to quit a job; and to “act impulsively or do reckless things, such as go on shopping sprees, drive recklessly, (or) get into foolish business ventures,” the website states. According to court documents, Maynard testified on her son’s behalf at his detention hearing on Tuesday. A federal judge denied the prosecution’s motion to detain Klatch See SUSPECT, Page 6A

For example, if there is an ADA ramp at an intersection, the light must meet different specifications that include length of signal, height of buttons. “So as a result of these things, the design had to be redone, which has been the major cause of the delays,” May said. He said the contractor is finished with the road, but the signals, approaches and handicap ramps are still being worked on, and PennDOT cannot open the road until all work is completed. “It was just part of the process in that the contractor had to redesign it and then resubmit the new designs to the boroughs for approval,” May said. “This took some time, but it was not at all due to any fault of either municipality.”

State Rep. Phyllis Mundy, DKingston, has been following the project and met with PennDOT and borough officials back in February. “This project has been very difficult,” Mundy said. “I suspect because it was design/build it took longer.” Mundy said PennDOT had to repair the Luzerne Shopping Center driveways because “they were taking a beating” from vehicles using the shopping center to avoid the detour. “I have had many inquiries from motorists who have been inconvenienced by this and I have perpetually asked PennDOT to expedite as best they could,” she said. “This project has been difficult for everyone. We are all frustrated and I sincerely hope all will be done in

October. I will go ballistic if it isn’t.” Keller said Luzerne Borough Council approved documents last month to allow the start of the electrical work for the signalization system. The Evans Street Bridge is “less than 100 feet long,” Keller said, and he noted the Eighth Street Bridge in Wyoming – a much larger span – was completed in much less time. Work on the Eighth Street span began in the fall of 2008, according to newspaper archives, and it opened earlier this year. May said the final cost for the Evans Street Bridge project is $1,749,604; the original contract was $1,651,364. “We are hoping that the contractor (FabCor Inc.) will have the project done by this October,” May said.

organizer Deb Chapman said. The ultimate goal for the girls is to program their robots to dance to their favorite song by Friday. But before that, Dr. Peggy Sullivan, a visiting assistant professor of math at Wilkes, had to teach the girls how to program their robots to trace a square tile on the floor, avoid obstacles and find dark spots on the floor. This is the third year the summer camp was held to inspire a better understanding of the sciences, Chapman said. “In middle school, girls are even with boys in areas of math and science,” she said. “After this

point, it changes. We do not know why.” She hopes the girls will leave with a better understanding of investigative and critical thinking. In deep conversation, Ortiz, of Hanover Township, Gesek, of Plymouth, and Sminkey, of Laurel Run, tried to figure out the right number sequence for a right-angle turn. Sminkey said the new robots and computer program they were using were easier than what her sister had last year. Ortiz, who also participated last year, agreed. “I have had a fun time doing this,” she said. The little square gray robot with black rubber tires sat on the table waiting for the girls to plug it into a USB cable to be downloaded with the new program.

After the download, they placed the robot on the floor, carefully lining it up with the edge of a tile, and pushed go. Across the square the robot went, turning left, but not quite at the right angle -- so the girls went back to their computer to determine why. Sullivan said she hopes the girls walk away with an understanding of a basic computer programming. “Many of them know how to use the computer, but this teaches them how break something down and put it in basic instructions for a computer program,” she said. Programming a robot was just part of what the girls learned. They also made hand sanitizer and learned to solve a crime using forensic science.

President Obama’s Medicare Plan:

Balance the Budget on the Backs of Seniors! *

President Obama is trying to radically change the Medicare Prescription Drug Program with Medicaidstyle price controls.

For seniors who depend on Medicare, the impact of Obama’s price controls would be devastating. Medicare prescription drug premiums for millions of seniors would increase by up to 40% Annual costs for almost 18 million seniors would increase by as much as $208 per year Total out-of-pocket drug costs for seniors and other Medicare beneficiaries would increase by up to $3.7 billion per year *http://bit.ly/MedicarePartD

Pennsylvania Seniors Can Count on Congressman Lou Barletta to Stand Up Against the Obama Medicare Plan. He has joined a bi-partisan effort to block Obama from balancing the budget on the backs of seniors with these drastic changes to Medicare, writing Obama to oppose “undermining access to needed treatments for beneficiaries.”** **Letter by Congressman Cory Gardner, 6/20/11

Mubarak denies charges from bed

Penny the Pa. political pup

Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett gets a kiss from Penny, one the new ‘first puppies,’ during an informal session Wednesday at the governor’s residence in Harrisburg. The dogs’ names are Penny, short for Pennsylvania, and Harry, for Harrisburg. The names were chosen from 548 entries submitted by children across the state. The 11-weekold puppies arrived at the governor’s residence last month.

CAIRO — An ailing, 83-year-old Hosni Mubarak, lying ashen-faced on a hospital bed inside a metal defendants cage with his two sons standing protectively beside him in white prison uniforms, denied charges of corruption and complicity in the killing of protesters at the start of his historic trial on Wednesday. The spectacle, aired live on state television, was a stunning moment for Egyptians. Many savored the humiliation of the man who ruled with unquestionable power for 29 years, during which opponents were tortured, corruption was rife, poverty spread and political life was stifled. After skepticism that Egypt’s military rulers would allow one of their own — a former head of the air force — to be prosecuted in front of the world, the

scene went a long way to satisfy one of the key demands that has united protesters since Feb. 11, when Mubarak fell following an 18-day uprising. “This is the dream of Egyptians, to see him like this, humiliated like he humiliated them for the last 30 years,” said Ghada Ali, the mother of a 17-year old girl in the city of Alexandria who was shot to death during the crackdown. In the courtroom, a prosecutor read the charges against Mubarak — that he was an accomplice along with his theninterior minister in the “intentional and premeditated murder of peaceful protesters” and that he and his sons received gifts from a prominent businessman in return for guaranteeing him a lowered price in a land deal with the state. “Yes, I am here,” Mubarak said from his bed, raising his hand slightly when the judge asked him to identify himself and enter a plea. “I deny all these accusations completely,” he said into a microphone, wagging his finger. His sons also pleaded not guilty. With Mubarek in the cage were his

nine co-defendants, including his two sons — one-time heir apparent Gamal and wealthy businessman Alaa — his former interior minister Habib el-Adly, and six top former police officials. The judge adjourned Mubarak and

his sons’ trial until Aug. 15 and ordered Mubarak held at a military hospital outside Cairo, and that an oncologist be among the doctors monitoring him. That was one of the strongest indications yet that Mubarak, 83, has cancer.

WASHINGTON

Child porn network busted Seventy-two people have been charged with participating in an international child pornography network that prosecutors say used an online bulletin board called Dreamboard to trade tens of thousands of images and videos of sexually abused children. Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano said Wednesday a 20-month law enforcement effort called Operation Delego targeted more than 600 Dreamboard members around the world for allegedly participating in the private Internet club. Numerous participants in the network sexually abused children ages 12 and under, produced images and video and then shared it with other club members, according to court papers. BOSTON

Cops: Mom punched toddler A mother accused of punching her toddler son in the mouth on a city bus and shouting expletives at him was surrounded by a “hostile” crowd of passengers until police arrived, authorities said Wednesday. Erica Ryan pleaded not guilty Wednesday in Roxbury District Court to a charge of assault and battery on a child causing injury. Prosecutors requested bail be set at $25,000; a judge set bail at $500 and ordered Ryan to stay away from the boy. Transit police say the 25-year-old Ryan punched her 1-year-old son and called him names for refusing to eat Tuesday on the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority bus. A “hostile” crowd of passengers surrounded her and wouldn’t let her off the bus, police said. WASHINGTON

Rumsfeld can be sued A federal judge says former Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld can be sued personally for damages by a former U.S. military contractor who says he was tortured during nine months in prison in Iraq. The court kept the identity of the contractor — an Army veteran in his 50s — confidential for fear of retaliation. His attorneys say he was repeatedly abused during detention at Camp Cropper, a U.S. military facility in Baghdad, after he worked as a translator for Marines. His lawsuit says Rumsfeld violated his constitutional rights by personally approving torturous interrogation techniques on a case-by-case basis and controlling his detention without access to courts.

Firm: Cyberattack raging for 5 years U.N., IOC, U.S. companies among 70-plus targets By BARBARA ORTUTAY AP Technology Writer

NEW YORK — A computer security firm says cybercriminals have spent at least the past five years targeting more than 70 government entities, nonprofit groups and corporations around the world to steal troves of data. McAfee Inc. said in a report Wednesday that the attacks have targeted a broad range of organizations, including the United Nations, the International Olympic Committee and companies mostly in the United States. McAfee did not say who may be behind the attacks but says the culprit is likely a nation state. The report is short on specifics, as the security firm is not naming most of the victims, nor is it stating exactly what data

were stolen. Most of the victims are in the U.S. Other victims were in Canada, South Korea, Taiwan, Japan and nine other countries. The report comes amid a surge in highprofile hacking cases in recent months. Citigroup, Sony Corp., Lockheed Martin, PBS and others have been targeted by hackers this year. McAfee says the majority of those revelations have been the result of “relatively unsophisticated and opportunistic exploitations for the sake of notoriety by loosely organized political hacktivist groups such as Anonymous and Lulzsec.” But the threats McAfee’s report focuses on are “much more insidious and occur largely without public disclosures,” wrote Dmitri Alperovitch, vice president of threat research at McAfee and the re-

port’s author. The key to these intrusions, he said, is that the perpetrator is motivated by “a massive hunger for secrets and intellectual property.” U.N. spokesman Farhan Haq said McAfee had informed the United Nations that its networks may have been targeted in a broad cyberattack between September 2008 and December 2010. He said the U.N.’s technical staff in New York and Geneva are analyzing logs of network activity for those periods, looking for evidence of such an attack. International Olympic Committee spokesman Mark Adams said that, thus far, the attacks are “a claim being made by Mcafee” and that the security firm’s researchers “have yet to give us any evidence or detail.”

BEIRUT — Syrian tanks stormed Hama under heavy shelling Wednesday, taking over a main square at the heart of the restive city and cutting off electricity, water and phone lines on the fourth day of an offensive. The U.N. Security Council added its weight to the growing international outcry, At least three condemning the tanks took up attacks on civilpositions in ians. Hama’s cenOpposition figures and activ- tral Assi ists accused the square, which regime of striking hard at a mo- in recent ment when weeks had world and media been the site attention were distracted by the of carnivaltrial in Egypt of like demonformer Presi- strations by dent Hosni hundreds of Mubarak. “Hama is be- thousands of ing collectively protesters … punished for its peaceful protests calling for the downfall of Bashar Assad,” said Suheir Atassi, a prominent pro-democracy activist. At least three tanks took up positions in Hama’s central Assi square, which in recent weeks had been the site of carnival-like demonstrations by hundreds of thousands of protesters calling for the downfall of President Assad’s regime. A religiously conservative city about 130 miles (210 kilometers) north of the capital with a history of dissent, Hama had largely fallen out of government control since June as residents turned on the regime and blockaded the streets against encroaching tanks.

Boy fighters of Somalia tell of cruelty By JASON STRAZIUSO Associated Press

MOGADISHU, Somalia — The former al-Shabab foot soldiers assigned to a drab cement housing bloc are young — too young. One is only 9, yet they were enforcers of harsh edicts from Islamist militants who are preventing thousands of Somalis from escaping famine. The Associated Press obtained rare access to the former fighters at a government rehabilitation facility in Mogadishu, providing a view into the workings of the al-Qaida-linked group whose presence in much of Somalia is stymieing efforts to provide emergency aid. Millions risk starvation amid Somalia’s worst drought in 60 years. The U.N. declared three new regions

in Somalia famine zones on Wednesday and said the crisis is likely to spread across all of southern Somalia in coming weeks. Getting aid to the country has been difficult because al-Shabab controls much of the most desperate areas. The hardline militant group routinely recruits young teenagers, kidnapping them. Last week, three teenage fighters surrendered to the African Union military force during a military offensive. The most recent arrival at the rehab center, 17-year-old Abshir Mohammed Abdi, said “there was no life, no prospects” inside al-Shabab, which he belonged to for 11⁄2 years before escaping to the camp last week. Abdi is from the country’s south — Kismayo — where Soma-

lia’s famine is hitting hardest. Abdi said many there are suffering, with al-Shabab fighters trying to stop the flow of refugees toward food, an exodus that threatens to diminish the population from which al-Shabab draws conscripts and collects taxes. Al-Shabab has denied a famine is taking place.

Somalis who have fled the famine zones and reached Mogadishu told the AP that militants are threatening refugees who leave the south and often stopping — and sometimes killing — the men, leading to a disproportionate number of women and children in camps in the capital.

Council to bid on properties at tax sale By STEVEN FONDO Times Leader Correspondent

NANTICOKE – City council agreed on Wednesday to bid on several blighted city properties at the Luzerne County tax sale next week. City Solicitor Paul Pugliese said the city plans to purchase and raze the blighted houses in order to return the properties to the tax rolls.

Council said the tax sale bid proposal was discussed in an executive session prior to the council meeting. The state’s Sunshine Law allows executive sessions to be held under five instances, including personnel, real estate and litigation issues. Some residents at the meeting asked city officials what properties the city plans to try to buy at the auction, but Pugliese stated

“We have a lot on our plate for Tuesday,” said Mullin. Council member Joe Gorham said McGlynn, the officer-incharge, has not forwarded the necessary paperwork. Council is “waiting for the officer in charge” to provide the paperwork, said Gorham. He expressed his frustration over trying to work with McGlynn. “I want cooperation,” said Gorham. “We have extended every courtesy available and ask for the same courtesy back, and we’re not getting it.” McGlynn was not at the meeting, but borough resident James Barberio spoke in his defense, saying the council might want the officer to do something that the mayor won’t let him do. “Don’t get Mr. McGlynn hamstrung between you and the mayor,” said Barberio. Mayor Rick Oravic did not attend the meeting. The new hires would be brought on in a staggered fashion over the next three months and bring the force up to six part-time officers. They work a maximum of 32 hours a week under state law. Gorham said the goal is to have coverage around the clock and the borough might be able to do so because to date the borough is operating under budget.

without bail, set his bail at $200,000, and required that he reside with his mother in Sugarloaf, undergo mental health evaluation and/or treatment and abide by some other conditions. Maynard said her son finally acknowledged in court on Tuesday that he had a problem with mental disease. She said she had been to her son’s townhouse in Center Valley, which was modestly decorated, but she couldn’t believe what she saw when she arrived at his condo in Florida. “When I came down, it’s like Bernie Madoff lived here. … We thought his place in Florida was like his place (near) Bethlehem. … I thought he was succeeding in life,” Maynard said, adding that her son “kept finding excuses” for her not to visit him in Florida. “He knew that if I came down here, I’d catch him.”

WILKES-BARRE AREA SCHOOL BOARD

Lack of notice cancels meeting City tower notifies official that meeting not advertised; mayor was to address board. By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A muchanticipated Wilkes-Barre Area School Board meeting set for noon Wednesday was canceled after the board realized it had not been advertised as required by state law. The meeting was rescheduled for 8:30 a.m. Friday. A small crowd that included Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton and his frequent political nemesis, city towing business operator Bob Kadluboski, had gathered for the meeting at the district administration building when Assistant Solicitor Ray Wendolowski came into the room with the news. Wendolowski said the problem was caused by a “clerical error” and was un-

intentional. Dressed in a dark suit and sporting the shaggy start of beard he credited to time on vacation, Leighton declined comment on his presence other than to say he had some items he “wanted to discuss with the board.” Leighton has been trying to get the board to forgive $445,000 in back taxes owed on the former Old River Road Bakery. The board rebuffed the request in the past, and members have increasingly chided Leighton for coming to them at the last minute with such requests. Previous owners defaulted on a mortgage and a bank had assumed ownership. The bank then transferred the property to Wilkes-Barre for $1 in 2008. Leighton had arranged to sell the property to Leo A. Glodzik III, owner of LAG Towing – the city’s contracted tower – and a contributor to Leighton’s election campaigns. The city did not

advertise the property was for sale. The sale has been staunchly opposed by Kadluboski, who had signed a sheet acknowledging he wanted to address the board. Wendolowski said it was Kadluboski who notified him that the meeting had not been adver-

tised. After the meeting was canceled, Kadluboski criticized the decision to hold the Friday meeting at 8:30 a.m. He argued that it denied the public the chance to comment on board actions and called it “a fix.” Agendas prepared for the meeting made no mention of the property.

OTHER OPINION: U.S. AUTOMAKERS

New gas standards fuel better America

OUGHER FUEL standards are coming to the United States, and they should produce twin victories for a cleaner environment and a reduced addiction to foreign oil. Large automakers and President Barack Obama deserve praise for agreeing to stricter fuel efficiency standards for new vehicles. The results promise to be impressive. Cars and trucks will use less gasoline, cutting the need for imported petroleum from unstable Middle Eastern countries. The reduced emissions from cleaner-burning vehicles will yield healthier air for millions of Americans. Obama did a solid job negotiating with carmakers, insist-

ing on a deal that would require them to increase fuel economy to 54.5 miles a gallon for their vehicle fleets by 2025. Some environmentalists are miffed the proposed standards aren’t even higher. However, they aren’t that far down from Obama’s initial (good) idea of future vehicle fleets that would average 56 miles a gallon. All major domestic automakers finally appear ready to embrace the standards and drop their claims that Americans won’t buy these kinds of vehicles. As sales figures for smaller cars and trucks have shown in recent years, they will, indeed, roll off the showroom floors. The Kansas City Star

n light of the prolonged debt ceiling negotiations, there is one thing that comes to mind about the power of political parties and their role in modern politics. When leaving the presidency in 1796, George Washington gave his “Farewell Address” to the nation, instantly becoming one of the greatest speeches in American history and political thought. Denying the right to serve another term as president and establishing the precedent of democratic turnover of office, Washington addressed the greatest concern in U.S. politics at the time. He apparently had no ambitions other than to live a peaceful, simple life on his farm – with no political agenda of his own, except for the best interests of the newly established nation. He warned against the power of political parties as inherently destructive to the deliberations of elected officials and, in turn, creating the “fatal tendency” of factionalism. Instead of working toward the mutual interests of the electorate, these parties create factionalism and divide people through what Washington terms as “an artificial and extraordinary force.” It has become self-evident through these recent debt negotiations that the will of the American people has been hijacked by the interests of political parties and the factionalism created thereof. It is time to come together as Americans and do what must be done for the good of the people. In the words of another great political theorist, Abraham Lincoln, “A house divided against itself cannot stand.” Well, now is the time that our house must come together, or tomorrow it might not be standing.

Social Security belongs to those who earned it

ay I remind the president and Congress that Social Security is not a government entitlement benefit? The deductions taken from our hard-earned paychecks throughout our working lives were meant to be put aside by the government for our retirements. Everything was fine until legislation was passed in the 1980s to place Social Security revenues in the general fund. It was supposed to be borrowed, like an IOU, but ... Can we borrow from congressional members’ retirement funds, as they did from ours, to ensure that the Social Security recipients get paid next month? Will they withhold their paychecks in August to show the retired folks who are living on very limited incomes how much they care? It’s our money, guys. What did you do with it?

the home rule charter? Certain members of the Luzerne County Government Study Commission wrote the charter and then ran for positions they created. I see a political power grab here with personal motives as the driving force. I am also writing in response to columnist Kevin Blaum’s recent criticism in The Times Leader (“Conduct search for manager professionally,” July 17) in regard to hiring a Luzerne County executive. Mr. Blaum believes early disclosure of applicants’ names will limit the pool of qualified applicants. He thinks it is an amateur approach. Mr. Blaum lives in an elite, safe philosophical world and does not practice what he preaches. I answered the question, saying I want to keep this hiring process open to ensure a continuation of transparency and reform in Luzerne County. We need reform. We must know as much as possible about the Luzerne County manager applicants and scrutinize every application. I think a compromise could be reached to give the public information and connect the dots based on the applicants’ résumés. A suggestion was given at the July 13 meeting to release résumés with no names. Applicants should be required to answer questions in regard to relatives and contacts with Luzerne County businesses. The Luzerne County manager will run day-to-day operations and make decisions with budgets related to county, state and federal funds. This person will oversee approximately 1,800 county employees. This individual will have the power to hire and fire. This person will be able to select anyone to co-sign county checks. Let’s not start out with more secrets. Remember my name.

love how Republicans say, “We don’t want to raise taxes.” Gov.

What people don’t realize is that once in office, these politicians make cuts to the middle-class programs and education funding, which causes increases in your school taxes and other taxes to make up what they are losing by not raising your income taxes. Republicans sit back and say, we didn’t raise taxes, knowing full well the cuts would make your taxes go up.

Is this now only a 10member transition committee? Will he officially resign? The Luzerne County commissioners are serving double duty and cannot attend all of the committee and subcommittee meetings. Yet, they make an effort. I also inquired about the issue of ethics. Is this group held accountable to the same standards created by the Pennsylvania State Ethics Commission?

Inmate’s appeal too late, county attorney says The suit, which was rejected at the federal level, was filed by an inmate at Rockview. By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – An attorney for the Luzerne County Prothonotary’s Office said an appeal filed by a state inmate was justly rejected because it wasn’t filed in time, and the inmate’s lawsuit filed against the office and other county employees

should be dismissed. Prothonotary Carolee Medico Olenginski, former Deputy Prothonotary Bob Sypniewski, former county President Judge Chester Muroski and the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas were named in a handwritten lawsuit filed by Hilton Karriem Mincy, who is currently incarcerated at the State Correctional Facility at Rockview in Bellefonte. The suit was filed with in the state Supreme Court on July 14. On Wednesday, an attorney for

Olenginski, Samuel Stretton, filed preliminary objections to Mincy’s lawsuit. Mincy claims in his lawsuit the county’s civil records office failed to file an appeal he sought in May 2010. The appeal stems from a May 2009 lawsuit Mincy filed against attorney Tom Marsilio, in which Mincy alleges Marsilio “kept him in the dark” about another civil lawsuit against SCI Mahanoy, where Mincy alleged mistreatment at the prison. Mincy alleges a breach of con-

tract and negligence on the part of Marsilio. That complaint was dismissed by then-President Judge Muroski, who has since become a senior judge. Mincy says in the suit he wanted to file an appeal to the judge’s order, but could not because of the civil records office mishandling his documents. The lawsuit filed against SCI Mahanoy, court records say, was dismissed at the federal level. The failure to file the appeal, Mincy says in the suit, caused him to have his rights taken

away; to lose the right to reverse a judge’s decision and to lose money owed to him totaling more than $11,000. Mincy also says he should be able to refile the appeal and should be reimbursed fees for filing the lawsuit and obtaining a paralegal. Stretton said in his objections to the lawsuit the notice of appeal was rejected by the prothonotary’s office because it did not include filing fees and was untimely. Stretton said Mincy also took

This 37-acre Wright Township townhouse project is scheduled for auction in a back-tax sale Wednesday, with bids starting at $806.

BIKESHARE PROGRAM

“We are asking the city to enact an ordinance that will establish safe biking habits for riders,” Martino said. We want to make motorists aware of where cyclists will be and where they go.” Martino said several accidents involving vehicles and bicycles have occurred. He said safer conditions are needed. Borton, Martino and Tom Jones and Rich Adams of Around Town Bicycles on North Main Street said they have developed a 15-step process to improve safety and the end result, they hope, will be a master plan for bike lanes. They have been working with Carol Hussa of the WilkesBarre YMCA on the project. “We realize we have to offer a plan that is low in cost,” Jones said. “We understand that money is tight everywhere.” Jones, Martino and Adams talked about defining a bike route downtown. They would like to see some city streets, like Franklin Street, that are one-way with two lanes be reduced to one lane

with a lane for bikers. “Cyclists must travel with traffic, not against it,” Adams said. “But the streets have to be wide enough. We want to work with the city and we will start by presenting our plan.” The group wants to provide a safe bike route from Coal Street to the River Common so cyclists can enjoy the entire city and motorists can be aware of where they are.

Federal prosecutors said bettors made wagers through a website, then paid their losses or collectedtheirwinningsatthesports bar on West Hollenback Avenue in Wilkes-Barre. The sports bar was cited by the statepoliceBureauofLiquorControl Enforcement in November for the possession or operation of gambling devices or paraphernalia. Patte in February paid a $500

fine for the offense, according to LCB records. As part of his federal plea deal, Patte agreed to pay $100,000 to the government to resolve a separate forfeiture that was filed on the sports bar. A monetary amount that was wagered through the sports bar could not be obtained on Wednesday. Federal court documents remain sealed on the case.

Sam Wagner, Genetti’s Best Western Hotel manager, said the BikeShare program started in April has been a success. It was established as a project of the WilkesBarre Rotary Club. He noted: • BikeShare is averaging 2-3 bikes loaned per day; weekends have been busier. • There is no charge to take a bike out from dawn to dusk; riders must leave an ID and fill out a form. • 16 bikes are available seven days a week; no time limit.

Yankees GM stops in Moosic

Brian Cashman discussed Montero, Banuelos and more while in the area on Tuesday. By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

MOOSIC — With New York in the midst of a seven-game road trip through Chicago and Boston, Brian Cashman decided to take a trip from the Big Apple to Moosic Tuesday night. The New York general manager couldn’t have picked a better game to watch from behind home plate at PNC Field. Not only did he get to see prized prospect pitcher Manny Banuelos – the No. 2 overall prospect in the Cashman organization according to MLB.com – make his Triple-A debut, Cashman got a glimpse of the No. 1 overall prospect in the organization Jesus Montero smack three hits, including a home run. New York’s general manager addressed several issues surrounding the organizations top two prospects. Cashman addressed the recent talk that Montero would be getting a call-up to the majors soon. Although he didn’t confirm the rumor, he didn’t deny it either. “It’s possible,” Cashman said when asked if Montero could be called up this year. “He’s obviously someone that I think can play in the big leagues in 2011. Will he? We’ll see. Obviously I think the experience here the last two years has helped.” Montero, 21, is seeing a slight See CASHMAN, Page 4B

Tiger returns to a favorite course today

By DOUG FERGUSON AP Golf Writer

AKRON, Ohio — Add another list of numbers to show how much has changed in the world of Tiger Woods. Geoff Ogilvy ran across a bookmaker’s odds for the Bridgestone Invitational when he noticed Woods at 20-to-1. This would only be startling because Woods hasn’t competed in three months while letting injuries to his left leg fully heal. In this case, however, Ogilvy considered that Woods has won a record seven times at Firestone, and until last year and never finished worse than fifth. “Did you think you could ever get Tiger at Firestone at 20-1? Ever?” Ogilvy

said to one of the caddies. “He was on 2-to-1 for a while.” Then he paused on the putting green, which was filled with players getting ready for a World Golf Championship that starts on Thursday. “It’s been an odd year,” Ogilvy said. The goal for Woods is to restore some normalcy, at least to his own game. He is coming up on the two-year anniversary of his last win on American soil. The last time he faced any competition inside the ropes, it lasted no more than nine holes at The Players Championship until he withdrew because of leg injuries. Now, he claims he is as healthy as he has been in years — he wouldn’t say

how many years, just “plural.” He has looked solid in a nine-hole practice round alone on Tuesday, and with Hunter Mahan and Arjun Atwal on Wednesday. Then again, practice rounds haven’t always been a good indicator for Woods, except at Pebble Beach and St. Andrews in the summer of 2000. What to expect Thursday? Not even Woods knows. “I still haven’t been in a competitive environment yet, so that’s a totally different atmosphere,” he said. The Bridgestone Invitational features a 76-man field, which includes only four See TIGER, Page 4B

BUBBA SMITH | 1945 - 2011

All-Pro DE was known just as well for acting By CLAIRE NOLAND Los Angeles Times

AP FILE PHOTO

Bubba Smith, an NFL defensive star who found a successful second career as an actor, has died in Los Angeles at age 66. The circumstances and cause of death are unknown.

LOS ANGELES — Bubba Smith, a former All-Pro football player turned actor and commercial pitch man who delighted TV viewers by wrenching off the tops of “easy-opening cans” of beer, was found dead Wednesday at his Los Angeles home. He was 66. The cause of death has not been determined, the Los Angeles County coroner’s office said. A caretaker found Smith at his home in Los Angeles’ Baldwin Hills section, police said. A 6-foot-7, 280-pound defensive end, Smith was the No.1NFL draft pick from Michigan State University when he joined the Baltimore Colts in 1967. He played five seasons for the Colts,

“As both a football player and later as an actor, Bubba was a great ambassador for the university.”

Mark Hollis Michigan State athletic director

ended his career in 1976. “He was simply a good guy,” former Michigan State teammate Robert Viney said in a statement released through the university. “His size made him an intimidating figure, but he was a real gentleman. He was a helluva player.” After football, Smith was recruited to the ranks of former professional athletes who appeared as themselves in commercials for Miller Lite beer. He and fellow NFL veteran Dick Butkus were cast as inept golfers and polo players in the TV spots. Smith was also featured solo in one commercial extolling the virtues of the beer, beaming into the camera, “I also love the easy-opening cans,” while ripping off the top of the can.

PAUL SOKOLOSKI OPINION

The new kid on the block is worth watching

he latest hyped-up Yankees farmhand arrived in Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre and wasted little time taking matters into his own hands. Manny Banuelos earned some respect as well as applause at PNC Field for the way he battled through his Triple-A debut Tuesday with the little Yankees. He showed enough grit and determination to give Scranton/ Wilkes-Barre a chance to win. But Banuelos didn’t quite conjure up images of Andy Pettitte, the last homegrown left-handed starting pitcher the New York Yankees developed. “He’s got great stuff,” Yankees general manager Brian Cashman said after watching his new prized prospect pitch five innings of two-run baseball. “He was ready to take the next step. I’m glad he got his feet wet here.” It seemed Banuelos got his feet tangled a bit down in Trenton. Banuelos wasn’t exactly sailing along in Double-A, putting up a 4-5 record with a 3.53 ERA in 20 starts with the Thunder. But the 20-year-old kid brought a thundering 93-mph fastball to Triple-A, striking out eight Lehigh Valley IronPigs during a no-decision in Scranton/Wilkes-Barre’s eventual 3-2 victory. “I got a little bit nervous,” Banuelos said of his first Triple-A start. “But after the first pitch, it stops.” Interestingly, Banuelos stopped the first-place IronPigs from busting the game open with a big inning despite allowing seven hits and three walks. He had runners in scoring position against him during four of the five innings he worked, and stranded a runner at third base in three of them. But the only runs Banuelos allowed came on a solo homer by recently demoted Phillies outfielder Domonic Brown and an RBI triple by Pete Orr. “With that lineup, they’ve got some professional hitters over there who can swing the bat,” Scranton/WilkesBarre manager Dave Miley said. “I thought (Banuelos) handled himself very well. We were very happy with the job he did, especially getting that last out in the fifth.” That final pitch Banuelos threw Tuesday was a fastball sneaking past Cody Overbeck for strike three with runners standing on second and third in a tie game. But even before that, Banuelos showed some fire under pressure. He escaped a bases-loaded, one-out jam in his first Triple-A inning by fanning Delwyn Young and inducing an inning-ending popup. And after Brown’s blast in the third, Banuelos left two men on with a strikeout of Carlos Rivero. “It’s good for me to get outs with runners on base,” Banuelos said. “I always try to strike them out.” But will the Yankees jinx strike him? It’s fair to wonder, after a long list of promising pitching prospects made their way through Scranton/WilkesBarre only to falter in New York lately. Joba Chamberlain was a ball of fire when he first hit the big leagues but bottomed out as a mediocre reliever who’s now on the disabled list. Ian Kennedy made the National League All-Star team this year with Arizona but couldn’t make it in New York. The jury’s still out on Phil Hughes, who won 18 games as an American League All-Star last season but has looked star-crossed at times with a 2-3 record and 6.93 ERA this season. “We rely on our farm system more than we’re given credit for,” Cashman said. That’s a credit to a team only if its farm system is reliable, not rickety. For starters, the latest Yankees prize appeared to be a little of both. Paul Sokoloski is a Times Leader sports columnist.

Phillies complete sweep of Rockies The Associated Press

DENVER — Roy Halladay fought through an erratic outing for his NL-leading 14th win, and Ryan Howard drove in four runs with a homer and a double as the Philadelphia Phillies completed a sweep of the Colorado Rockies with an 8-6 victory Wednesday night. Halladay (14-4) allowed five runs on eight hits in seven innings. He struck out seven and walked one as the NL Eastleading Phillies won their sixth straight. Brad Lidge got three outs for his first save of the season after being reinstated from the disabled list late last month. Jason Hammel (6-11) gave up six runs on eight hits in five innings in taking the loss, the Rockies’ fourth straight. Brewers 10, Cardinals 5

MILWAUKEE — Casey McGehee homered three times and the Milwaukee Brewers rallied to beat the St. Louis Cardinals and add to their NL Central lead. McGehee hit go-ahead, tworun homers in both the first and third innings and added a seventh-inning solo shot to give Milwaukee its eighth win in nine games at Miller Park. Corey Hart also homered for the Brewers, who extended their lead over the Cardinals to 31⁄2 games. Rafael Furcal hit a three-run homer and drove in four runs off Randy Wolf (8-8) in his fourth game since being acquired Sunday in a trade with the Dodgers, but new Cardinals starter Edwin Jackson struggled. Giants 8, Diamondbacks 1

SAN FRANCISCO — Ryan Vogelsong won his career-best sixth straight decision, and Orlando Cabrera drove in three runs to help San Francisco

remain atop the NL West. Vogelsong (9-1) allowed one run on five hits, struck out seven and walked three in six innings as the Giants snapped a five-game losing streak in which they were outscored 31-8. Carlos Beltran tripled among his three hits, scored twice and drove in a run in his best game since joining the Giants in a trade from the New York Mets last Thursday. Braves 6, Nationals 4

WASHINGTON — Dan Uggla hit a three-run homer and extended his career-best hitting streak to 25 games, and Freddie Freeman had two hits and two RBIs as Atlanta avoid a sweep. Uggla’s streak is Atlanta’s longest since Marquis Grissom put together a 28-game run in 1996, while Freeman’s 18-game run is the longest by a rookie in the majors this season. Cubs 1, Pirates 0

PITTSBURGH — Starlin Castro homered and Matt Garza pitched seven shutout innings to lead the Chicago Cubs to a 1-0 win over the sliding Pittsburgh Pirates. Castro’s solo homer leading off the eighth inning made a winner of Garza (5-8) as he combined on a four-hit shutout with Sean Marshall and Carlos Marmol, who worked the ninth for his 22nd save.

BOSTON — Jacoby Ellsbury got the winning hit for the second night in a row, homering with two outs in the ninth inning to give the Boston Red Sox a 4-3 win over the Cleveland Indians Wednesday night. Joe Smith (2-2) got the first two batters on groundouts before Ellsbury hit an 0-1 pitch over the wall in straightaway center field for Boston’s 10th win in 13 games.

SEATTLE — Charlie Furbush retired the first 13 batters in five strong innings and the Seattle Mariners swept past the Oakland Athletics. Furbush (2-3), acquired Saturday in a four-player deal with Detroit, allowed one run and two hits with three strikeouts and no walks. He had a perfect game through 4 1-3 innings before Conor Jackson ended it with a fifth-inning double off the left-field wall that was inches away from being a home run and needed a video review.

DETROIT — Doug Fister pitched seven effective innings to win his Detroit debut while Alex Avila and Ryan Raburn homered as the Tigers beat the Texas Rangers.

past champions in the 11-year history of this WGC event at Firestone — one win each for defending champion Mahan, Stewart Cink and Darren Clarke, and seven titles for Woods. But that was the old Woods, the guy who won at least one World Championship every year since 1999. The recovering Woods? He said his expectation was to win, just like always. Some of his peers, who have seen his action over 20 winless months and haven’t seen him the past three months, aren’t so sure. “No one expects him to come out and play well,” U.S. Open champion Rory McIlroy said. “I’m sure he expects himself to come out and play and compete, but given the length of layoff and considering that he’s only been able to hit full shots for the last two weeks or whatever, it would be an unbelievable effort if he was to come back and compete. But I think just get through 72 holes and maybe finish top 20 would be a really good effort.” After playing the back nine under gray clouds, Mahan said this about Woods on Twitter: “The swing looks great and the knee looks even better.” Then again, Mahan is slightly

come back to training camp, but he’s over there being observed, but that’s pretty normal for somebody who has a seizure. Standard protocol says keep him in overnight to watch him and keep some monitors on him and whatnot.” Patterson’s agent JR Ricket said in a statement that the player is “in no pain and doing well.” “We are very grateful for everyone’s prayers and support,” he added. “Mike will be back at practice as soon as the doctors clear him.” Burkholder said the seizure lasted about four minutes, and

BUBBA Despite a lucrative contract and widespread popularity, Smith walked away from the job. “I went back to Michigan State for the homecoming parade last year,” Smith told then-Los Angeles Times columnist Scott Ostler in1986. “I was the grand marshal and I was riding in the back seat of this car. The people were yelling, but they weren’t saying, ‘Go, State, go!’ One side of the street was yelling, ‘Tastes great!’ and the other side was yelling ‘Less filling!’ “Then we go to the stadium. The older folks are yelling ‘Kill, Bubba, kill!’ But the students are yelling ’Tastes great! Less filling!’ Everyone in the stands is drunk. It was like I was contributing to alcohol, and I don’t drink. It made me realize I was doing something I didn’t want to do.” So he turned to acting in movies and TV, notably playing Moses Hightower in six “Police Academy” movies. He also appeared in a number of TV series including “Half-Nelson,” “Blue Thunder” and “Good Times.” Charles Aaron Smith was born Feb. 28, 1945, in Orange, Texas, and grew up in Beaumont, where his mother was a teacher and his father was his high school football coach. At Michigan State, Smith became an All-America defensive end for the Spartans, who went 19-1-1 his last two seasons. He also earned a bachelor’s degree in sociology. “Bubba Smith was a great Spartan,” Michigan State athletic director Mark Hollis said in a statement. “As both a football player and later as an actor, ‘Bubba’ was a great ambassador for the University. It’s only fitting that beginning this fall the Big Ten Defensive Lineman of the Year Award bears his name.” His brother Tody, a star at USC and in the NFL, later became Bubba’s agent. He died at 50 in 1999. Information on survivors was not immediately available.

The faces are mostly familiar and the experience is there. But for Penn State, there is still plenty to settle in the preseason. Practices for the 2011 season begin today for the Nittany Lions, who reported for the official opening of camp on Wednesday. Because of the volume of injuries that struck the team last year, there are 23 players who started multiple games in 2010 returning for this season. That means there are a number of position battles still to be decided between now and the Sept. 3 opener against Indiana State. QUARTERBACK

biased because both employ Sean Foley as a swing coach. Whatever the expectations, the level of curiosity about Woods is close to what it was when he returned from his sex scandal at the 2010 Masters. There was something about the way he left The Players Championship on May 12 that made it look as though he would never be the same, that the four surgeries on his left knee would keep him from dominating the way he once did. Three months later, there was a confidence with Woods when he spoke about his health, and being patienttolethislegshealproperly. “I think for some of the young guys, they’ve never seen Tiger Woods play Tiger Woods golf,” Mahan said. “They’ve never even come close to seeing it. I don’t thinkhehastoproveanything,but I think he’s one of those guys, kind of like (Michael) Jordan, he takes every single thing that someone says and he’s going to turn it into this massive gas on a fire that he’s got burning right now. I think he’s ready, man. “A motivated Tiger and someone who has a challenge in front of him is a good thing for him.” Woods tees off at 1:40 p.m. with Clarke, a longtime friend who last month captured his first major at the British Open. Two groups behind them will be Adam Scott, noteworthy only because Scott now uses Steve Williams, whom Woods fired as a caddie a month

ago. Woods is using Bryon Bell, a childhood friend who last worked for him six years ago at Disney. Another reunion occurred during his practice round when he put his old Scotty Cameron putter — the one he used in 13 major wins — back in his bag. Whether it stays there won’t be known until he tees off.

Patterson lost consciousness at one point as he was on the ground. As players kneeled nearby, holding hands and praying, an ambulance arrived and Patterson was placed on a stretcher and lifted into the ambulance. The linemen resumed practice after about 15 minutes. The skill position players did 7-on-7 drills on another field while Patterson was down. “We were all on edge a little bit and Rick just kind of calmed the situation down,” Eagles coach Andy Reid said. “One thing I think he did a phenomenal job with was evaluating it, evaluating the situation in a calm way.” It was a cool day at camp. Temperatures were in the high 70s when the players took the

field for their morning session. Patterson, 28, was the Eagles’ first-round pick out of Southern California in 2005. He’s started 84 games and played in 95, the most of anybody on the current roster. Burkholder said there’s no timetable for Patterson’s return. “We’ll turn that over to the neurologists and those people who are absolute experts,” he said. “It’s not like hamstring strains. We don’t see tons of seizures in our sport, so that’s why I have a whole team of physicians, and Lehigh Valley Hospital has a great neuro department, so we’re allowing them to handle the case now and then we’ll get him to see our docs down at the Pennsylvania Hospital eventually.”

Mountain Top Blue advances The Times Leader staff

EXETER – Mike Geroski pitched five innings for a win to lead Mountain Top Blue to a berth in the Exeter Classic 9-10 baseball championship game with a 6-2 victory over Back Mountain Light Blue. Geroski went 2-for-2 at the plate and RBI. Mountain Top Blue’s Zach Andrews chipped in with three singles. Bradley Papura doubled, tripled and produced three RBI. Keefer Hoover had a single and a double with two RBI. Connor Olgenski also contributed with a single. Brett Ostroski doubled for Back Mountain Light Blue. Justin James manufactured a triple and an RBI. Zachary Holthaus singled.

The Lions aren’t exactly starting from scratch again – certainly nothing like what the team faced last summer when not a single player on the roster had taken a meaningful snap under center in a college game. Indications are that sophomore Rob Bolden will be the man to beat. Bolden, who was set to transfer in January before Joe Paterno denied him a release from his scholarship, insisted this summer that he had received no promises from the coaching staff about the starting job. Still, Bolden’s return to the team is a sign that he is confident he will reclaim the job he initially lost to injury in the middle of last season. But Matt McGloin held onto the starting spot in the second half in large part because he injected some life into an offense that had little leadership. McGloin, a junior from West Scranton High School, still has the edge over Bolden in the huddle, and that goes a long way for Paterno. Junior Kevin Newsome also opted not to transfer and will be the third-stringer. Redshirt freshman Paul Jones will sit out

the season for academic reasons, according to Paterno.

TIGHT END

Fifth-year man Andrew Szczerba looks to be ready to go after sitting out the entire 2010 season because of a chronic back injury. The Lions badly missed the 6-foot-6 Szczerba as a blocker last season, and if he adjusts back to the speed of the game well enough, he should be the starter. The Lions have another appealing option in Kevin Haplea, who started most of the season at tight end as a true freshman because of injuries to Szczerba and Garry Gilliam, who is expected to miss all of 2011 as well. Haplea handled himself very well and should still see the field regardless of Szczerba’s progress. RIGHT GUARD

The bookends on the offensive line are set and Johnnie Troutman and Matt Stankiewitch will likely start at left guard and center, respectively. That leaves the big hole from Stefen Wisniewski’s departure to fill at right guard. Battling it out will be sophomore John

D’Anton Lynn enters his third year as a starter, but the spot opposite him is once again up for grabs. Senior Chaz Powell is one option – assuming he hasn’t been switched between two more positions by the end of this article. Junior Stephon Morris is the other. Both have starting experience and both are viable options to round out a veteran secondary. KICKER/PUNTER

This could end up being the same person. Sophomore Anthony Fera handled the punting and kickoff duties for much of last season. Penn State must replace a reliable placekicker in Collin Wagner, and Paterno hasn’t been 100 percent sold on Fera’s consistency. But with limited options, Fera could get a chance on field goals as well this season. Another option there is incoming freshman Sam Ficken. The Lions also have Alex Butterworth available to punt if they want to lighten Fera’s workload.

MLB

MLB looking into A-Rod’s poker history

Wednesday night in Chicago. “I don’t really have any comment on that,” manager Joe Girardi said before the Yankees played the White Sox. “Let baseball handle those things.” Star Magazine reported last month that several people saw A-

Rod playing in games hosted at Hollywood hotels and residences. His publicist denied that Rodriguez participated. Rodriguez’s name is not mentioned in any court filings in relation to the games. MLB said at the time that the report was the first the commissioner’s office had heard about the accusation and baseball officials would look into the matter. A spokesman for the Yankees declined comment when asked about Rodriguez on Wednesday. A message was left seeking comment from Richard Rubenstein, Rodriguez’s publicist. The 36-year-old Rodriguez had right knee surgery on July 14 but is expected to resume baseball activities on Thursday at the Yankees’ facility in Florida. The three-time AL MVP is hitting .295 with 13 home runs and 52 RBIs this season. Rodriguez ranks sixth on the career homer list with 626. He needs 137 to break Barry Bonds’ all-time record.

“This is a middle of a lineup hitter in the big leagues, we believe some day, and he’s a very young player too. What he’s done at the level he’s done it at and the age he’s done it at is rare. So him and Manny Banuelos both have moved themselves very fast.” Banuelos, 20, has also been rumored to be heading to New York this season after a strong showing in spring training with the parent club and solid performances with Double-A Trenton. During the spring, the lefthander made six appearances – two starts – and went 1-1 with a 2.13 ERA and 14 strikeouts in 122⁄3 innings pitched against Major League players and only allowed 10 hits. On Tuesday, he tied his career-high with eight strikeouts against Lehigh Valley and only allowed two runs. “I don’t think there was anything left for him in Trenton so we wanted him to get some Tri-

ple-A games under his belt before the season ended,” Cashman said. “So as we move into next year the gap is closer to the big leagues.” Cashman also raved about the prospects he held onto during the trade deadline and said that the Yankees aren’t given enough credit for their minor-league system, which has developed blooming stars Eduardo Nunez and Ivan Nova, to go along with a slew of other former farmhands currently playing in New York. “We love Nova and love Nunez, but the next wave of Yankees we believe have even higher ceilings and even more potential than those guys,” Cashman said. “Hopefully the patience will pay off and we’ll continue to give guys the opportunity. The games themselves will decide the men from the boys. “I’m not afraid to give them a chance.”

By JAY COHEN AP Sports Writer

CHICAGO — Yankees star Alex Rodriguez will be interviewed by Major League Baseball as part of its investigation of his involvement in illegal poker games. Rodriguez also faced questions about his gambling habits in 2005, when the Daily News reported he attended games at an underground poker club in New York. The slugging third baseman later acknowledged “it wasn’t the right thing to do,” and checked with MLB before holding a charity poker tournament the following year. Now baseball wants to talk to him again. “We take this very seriously and have been investigating this matter since the initial allegation,” MLB said Wednesday in a statement. “As part of the investigation, the commissioner’s office will interview Mr. Rodriguez.” Rodriguez is on the disabled list and wasn’t with the team

decrease in power in his second season at Triple-A, but his .288 batting average is right on par with his .289 mark from 2010. His longball on Tuesday was his 11th of the season; last year for SWB he pounded 21. He has started to heat up. In his last 10 games, he is hitting .359 with three home runs. He had similar stats at this time last season to help SWB reach the postseason. If all goes well, he may help New York reach the playoffs in 2011. “This is the part of the year he broke out last year,” Cashman said. “Right before the trading deadline he started to take off and had a monster finish.

NBA lockout even affecting video game makers By JONATHAN LANDRUM Jr. The Associated Press

ATLANTA — Video game makers are bracing for an extended NBA lockout by focusing on former players who made the league popular in hopes of taking the attention away from the impact labor strife will have on their product. In the upcoming “NBA 2K12,” which goes on sale Oct. 4 despite the lockout, 2K Sports plans to introduce a new mode called, NBA’s Greatest, that will feature the league’s top 15 players of alltime and some of the most famous rivalries.

Hall of Famers such as Michael Jordan, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Julius Erving will be featured on the latest installment of the bestselling basketball video game franchise. Jordan, Johnson and Bird will appear on three separate covers on the front of the game. “NBA basketball is about the history and the future of the game,” said Jason Argent, vice president of marketing at TakeTwo’s 2K Sports. “We love the current game and are looking to optimize it.” But an extended lockout would

Since NBA Jam doesn’t keep track of player movement through the season, she said the game shouldn’t be affected by the NBA work stoppage. In preparation for the lockout, 2K Sports has already created its own “skeleton” list of the 15 greatest players and rivalries. But the video game company won’t come to a final decision on both until after they have gathered the opinions from fans through their own social media networks such as Twitter and Facebook.

NASCAR

Wildcard Menard has eye on making the Chase By JENNA FRYER AP Auto Racing Writer

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Raise your hand, please, if you picked Paul Menard to make the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship. Chances are Menard wasn’t on many lists outside of those made at Richard Childress Racing. But he’s a very real threat now, thanks to his win Sunday at Indianapolis Motor Speedway and NASCAR’s change to the qualifying rules. The 12-driver field this year will include “wild cards” awarded to the two drivers outside the top 10 but among the top 20 in points who have the most victories. Menard is now one of them. But holding on to one of the wild cards isn’t expected to be easy as drivers have just six races remaining to lock up a spot in the

Chase. It could set the stage for the most aggressive racing in recent memory, as teams take huge chances to put themselves in position for a win. Menard and crew chief Slugger Labbe essentially did that Sunday at Indianapolis, where they used fuel strategy to give Menard his first career Cup victory. Labbe had laid it out in a team meeting before they even arrived at Indy. “I said, ‘Look, guys, if we’re going to make the Chase, we’re going to have to get risky,’ ” Labbe recalled. “Seems to be a trend in the Cup Series, that people take gambles on pit road. It was our turn to get aggressive. I told Paul

he had to support me. He supported me 100 percent. Three times he had an occasion where he could have said, ‘No, I don’t want to do that.’ But he did. Fortunately it worked out.” As the series shifts this weekend to Pocono Raceway, everyone will be watching to see who rolls the dice with a different setup, gutsy strategy or on-track aggression. Denny Hamlin is currently ranked 11th in the standings, but because he’s got one win this season he’s presently holding down the other wild card. Pocono is one of his strongest tracks, and a win Sunday would be a significant cushion toward qualifying for the Chase. But his Joe Gibbs Racing crew isn’t taking any chances. Upset that Hamlin’s engine failed dur-

ing practice at Indianapolis — a lingering issue this season for JGR — driver and crew chief began inquiring about the possibility of using a Toyota-built engine later this month at Michigan. Team president J.D. Gibbs didn’t rule out a potential group effort between JGR and Toyota on an engine for Hamlin at Michigan, another strong track for Hamlin and a critical place for him to lock up a spot in the Chase. Then there’s David Ragan and Brad Keselowski, who both have wins this season and rank outside the top 10 in points. Ragan is 16th in the standings, while Keselowski, at 21st, would have to move inside the top 20 to be eligible for a wild card. Both drivers are currently racing Menard for the second wild

card, but that field could widen at any time. Tony Stewart and Dale Earnhardt Jr. are ranked ninth and 10th in the standings, but both are winless. They’d make the Chase if they can stay inside the top 10 in points, but without a win, they have zero breathing room. Then there’s Clint Bowyer and Greg Biffle, who are also winless but ranked ahead of Menard in the standings. Should either grab a win over the next six weeks, they’d instantly move into the Chase field. Jeff Gordon, ranked seventh in points with two victories this season, isn’t sure what to expect over this final stretch of summer racing. “Right now, if you’re outside the Chase or you don’t think you have a shot at it, especially with

the wins now, that definitely adds another element to it to take more risks,” Gordon said. “If you’re 10 laps short (on gas), that’s not risk. That’s stupidity. To me, it’s risk versus reward. “The further back you get in the points, the more risky you can get.” Some might consider the wild card to be nothing more than manufactured drama by NASCAR, which announced the new element before the start of this season. Maybe it is artificial, but it’s added an element to the competition and kept drivers in contention who otherwise wouldn’t dare dream of a championship at this point of the season. “It’s right in front of us if we continue to run well,” Ragan said. “It’s going to be a dogfight for points.”

Steelers continuing criticism of Goodell

Chicago signs Sharp to five-year extension

The Associated Press

LATROBE — Another Pittsburgh Steeler has some strong words for Roger Goodell. Less than three weeks after linebacker James Harrison made some inflammatory comments about the NFL commissioner to Men’s Journal magazine, safety Ryan Clark on Wednesday criticized the power Goodell holds, particularly when it comes to disciplining players. “How often did you hear (former commissioner) Paul Tagliabue’s name throughout the season?” Clark said. “I think (Goodell has) decided to make himself a major part of this game. I don’t know if he had some type of high school dreams or Pop Warner dreams of being an NFL football player, but he’s made himself the NFL. He is the most popular — or infamous — commissioner in sports right now, you know? Maybe that’s what he wanted to be. We know he doesn’t work for us, he doesn’t work with us.” Clark added that Steelers players likely will not vote to ratify the new collective bargaining agreement unless Goodell’s power is limited when it comes to fines or suspensions. “He wants to do it his way — the same way that he has taken over most of this game,” Clark said. Clark took issue when he was asked if he had spoken to Steelers president Art Rooney II about lobbying Goodell on the players’ behalf. “I’m talking about the commissioner — not my owner,” Clark said. “Our owner is a good owner.” The line of questioning ultimately led to Clark to become agitated with the reporter who asked it, a Pittsburgh radio talk-show host. The two exchanged words and stood chestto-chest before team personnel and players broke it up. EAGLES

Hargrove and Derek Landri on Wednesday. Earlier in the day, Eagles lost two defensive tackles for an indeterminate amount of time. Trevor Laws injured his hip and was carted off the field, and Mike Patterson had a seizure and was hospitalized. Hargrove, a third-round pick of the Rams in 2004, has played in 87 regular-season games, starting 25. He was suspended twice while with the Buffalo Bills for violating the NFL’s substance abuse policy, for four games in 2007 and then for the entire 2008 season. He returned to the NFL in 2009 and had a career-high five sacks in 16 games, six starts, for the Super Bowl-champion New Orleans Saints. Hargrove played 14 games last season for the Saints. Landri spent his first three seasons with the Jaguars, who drafted him out of Notre Dame in 2007. He was claimed off waivers by the Panthers late in 2009 and started all 16 games for Carolina last year, the first starts of his career. He had three sacks last year and has six in 51 career games.

Players, owners looking to resolve last-minute issues By BARRY WILNER AP Pro Football Writer

NEW YORK — With yet another deadline approaching, NFL players and owners still are debating drug testing, benefits and the player conduct policy disciplinary process as they work to complete the collective bargaining agreement. The NFL and the players union were discussing those issues Wednesday, with the league year scheduled to begin at 4 p.m. today. That’s when players who signed new contracts will be allowed to practice for the first time if the CBA is approved. Among the players’ concerns is

how HGH testing would be implemented, who would oversee it and what would be a fair appeals process. Blood tests are used to look for HGH, while urine tests are used to detect other substances that violate the league’s policy. Commissioner Roger Goodell reiterated the expectation an agreement would be finalized on time. “That’s certainly our intention,” he said Wednesday while visiting the Carolina Panthers. “If we can reach agreement and sign the collective bargaining agreement by tomorrow morning, we certainly expect for the new league year to start and the play-

ers to be out here tomorrow morning.” Giants long snapper Zak DeOssie calls Thursday “a soft deadline” but says it’s “looking very optimistic” that the CBA will be signed on time. Steelers safety Ryan Clark wasn’t so sure. “De Smith is still working,” Clark said of the NFLPA executive director, “and we’re trying to get this figured out. But it’s not an absolute that guys will be at practice tomorrow.” Following the 41⁄2-month lockout, all 32 teams are counting on having those players with new contracts at practice on Thurs-

day, with a few clubs moving back the starting time of their workouts. Packers general manager Ted Thompson said he doesn’t “even want to entertain the thought” of a delay. “The first thing that’s going to happen is I’m going to jump out of a building somewhere,” Thompson joked. Dallas player rep Jason Witten wasn’t surprised that another deadline was being faced. “We knew that was going to take a little bit of time (with) some of those issues,” Witten said. “But, gosh, a lot of work’s gone into it to get to this point; hate to see it slip.”

CHICAGO — Chicago Blackhawks general manager Stan Bowman doesn’t consider forward Patrick Sharp to be a good player. Bowman ranks Sharp, who led the Blackhawks with 34 goals last season, as a “prominent player.” So Bowman made it a priority to sign Sharp to a five-year contract extension, a move the team completed and announced Wednesday. The team didn’t release terms of the deal. The 29-year-old Sharp tied for eighth in the league in goals last season and was third on the club with a career-high 71 points. He added three goals and two assists in the playoffs as the Blackhawks lost to Vancouver in the first round following a Stanley Cup win the previous year. Sharp’s numbers would have been better had he not suffered a left knee injury in a game in Phoenix on March 20. He missed seven games, then returned with three games left in the regular season to help the Blackhawks squeak into the playoffs on the final day of the season. Sharp said on Wednesday he has fully recovered from the injury. The contract extension is a perfect cure from persistent speculation about his future with the Blackhawks. “Getting this out of the way should clear up things for me and allows me to just show up and be a good player and great teammate and to not focus on the individual stuff,” Sharp said. Bowman also wanted to get the deal done. “Especially with Patrick, we

didn’t want it (contract talks) to stretch into the start of the regular season,” Bowman said. “He’s just a veSharp ry important part of this team. “So to have him always be hounded by questions ... It’s part of being a professional athlete to deal with distractions, but it can become a distraction in a negative way.” Sharp’s current contract is heading into its final year and will pay him $4.2 million in 2011-12. Bowman has repeatedly said he wants to keep the core of his team intact, and now Sharp has a long-term agreement along with stars such as Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane, Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook, Marian Hossa and goalie Corey Crawford. Sharp was acquired in a trade from Philadelphia in December 2005 when the Blackhawks were in the middle of a stretch of missing the playoffs nine times in 10 years. “It wasn’t the best of teams,” Sharp said. “We were out of the playoffs by Christmastime a lot of the time. But it gave me an opportunity.” Sharp blossomed as a top offensive player in Chicago, thanks to ample ice time he probably wouldn’t have gotten on Philadelphia’s deeper roster. When the Blackhawks won the Cup in 2010 — their first since 1961— Sharp pitched in11goals and 11 assists in 22 playoff games.

LITTLE LEAGUE

Study: High pitch counts biggest factor in injuries The Associated Press

SOUTH WILLIAMSPORT — Throwing too many pitches at a young age is the primary cause of arm injuries among youth baseball players, a University of North Carolina study released Wednesday shows. The study done in collaboration with Little League Baseball and Softball, and USA Baseball, concluded there was no clear evidence that throwing breaking pitches at an early age was an injury risk factor. Little League president Stephen Keener said the findings don’t support a ban on breaking balls for young pitchers. The study stressed the importance of pitch counts and educating players about potential risks in throwing in multiple leagues. Little League called the research the first substantive work in the area. Researchers also said it was important for doctors, trainers and coaches to

stress proper stretching, warmup and postgame cool-down routines. A ban on breaking balls “would not be simple to put into practice,” Keener said in a statement. “With such a wide range of aptitude and ability, it’s practically impossible to judge if any youth pitcher intended to throw a curveball or if that’s just how the ball came out of the pitcher’s hand.” Little League does have a pitch-count system intended to reduce wear on the arms of youth pitchers. Funding for the five-year study that began in 2006 was provided through a grant from the Yawkey Foundation, named after the family that formerly owned the Boston Red Sox. Findings were released two weeks before the start of the Little League World Series, which begins Aug.18 in South Williamsport.

Coach Brian Kelly suspended Floyd a day after his arrest. Kelly said Wednesday that he was comfortable with Floyd’s return because the senior has shown personal growth. “I am pleased with the progress Michael has made since March,” Kelly said on the school’s Web site. “That’s why I am comfortable reinstating him to our football team. Michael knows that he must continue on this positive track.” The 21-year-old Floyd pleaded guilty in June to misdemeanor charges and was sentenced to a year of probation.

When they release sales figures for July, the numbers are expected to show that hot weather sent shoppers in search of discounted summer merchandise and the air conditioning in stores and malls. Sales from stores open at least a year, the standard for measuring retailers’ strength, are expected to rise 4 percent. But retailers may warn that back-to-school business may be weak.

Comcast sees profit jump

Comcast, the country’s largest cable TV company, beat expectations with its second-quarter results, helped by the newly acquired NBC Universal business. The Philadelphia-based company reported net income of $1.02 billion, or 37 cents per share, for the April to June period. That’s up 16 percent from $884 million, or 31 cents per share, a year ago. Revenue rose 51 percent to $14.3 billion. Analysts were expecting $13.7 billion. Revenue from last year’s quarter didn’t include NBC Universal.

Internet services company Web.com is purchasing the larger Network Solutions, a domain registrar and website services company with an office in Butler Township. Publicly traded Web.com is paying $450 million in cash plus 18 million shares of stock, for a total value of $560 million. Network Solutions is currently majority owned by private equity firm General Atlantic LLC.

The purchase furthers Web.com’s position as a provider of Internet services to small and medium sized businesses. The company purchased Kingston Townshipbased Solid Cactus in April 2009. No purchase price was announced for that sale. While Network Solutions is principally known as a domain registrar and website host, in recent years it has offered website design and marketing services. Solid Cactus built its reputation as a website developer for small

businesses. “This transaction represents a unique opportunity to dramatically expand our scale, add further momentum to Web.com’s already improving top-line growth, and further expand our market share as the nationally recognized go-to provider of online marketing solutions specifically tailored to small and medium-sized businesses,” said David Brown, chairman and CEO of Web.com in a release. The combined company

will have approximately 3 million paying customers and 9 million domain names in its portfolio, the release stated. A cost savings from the combination is projected at $30 million. The announcement was made after the close of trading Wednesday. Web.com shares were at $11.40 per share in after-hours trading, up 32 percent from the close. The transaction, which is subject to Web.com shareholder approval, is expected to be completed in the fall.

P&G foresees no growth

Procter & Gamble Co. Chief Executive Robert McDonald says his company is preparing for a period of little or no economic growth in developed countries. McDonald told reporters Wednesday in Singapore that he’s concerned about the lack of growth in the U.S. He said his company’s sales from October last year through to March this year in North America, Western Europe and Japan were flat. P&G is scheduled to announce its April-June earnings Friday.

BofA may cut loan principal

Bank of America Corp. is pursuing a settlement that could reduce loan balances for struggling homeowners in exchange for a release from legal claims against the Charlotte bank, a person familiar with the matter said Wednesday. The talks are separate from ongoing discussions between five major lenders, including Bank of America, and federal officials and state attorneys general. It’s unclear when either set of talks will conclude and whether they will result in agreements.

Metro unemployment rises

Unemployment rose in more than 90 percent of U.S. cities in June, mirroring a national slowdown in hiring. The Labor Department says the unemployment rate rose in 345 large metro areas. It dropped in 20 cities and was unchanged in seven. That’s worse than May, when the rate rose in only 210 cities and a sharp reversal from April, when unemployment actually fell in nearly all metro areas. The rate jumped to 9.2 percent in June in the area that includes Luzerne County, matching the national rate.

Water company profit up

Aqua America Inc. reported Wednesday that second-quarter net income increased 26 percent to $37.6 million, or 27 cents per share. The Bryn Mawr company said earnings were boosted by a one-time $3.5 million state tax benefit from the 100 percent bonus depreciation allowed under a federal tax-relief act. Without that, income increased 14 percent to $34.1 million, or 25 cents a share. The company said quarterly revenue increased 5.5 percent from $178.4 million last year to $188.2 million this year.

Growth in July slowest in 17 months By CHRISTOPHER S. RUGABER AP Economics Writer

WASHINGTON — Service businesses such as restaurants, hotels and financial companies experienced their weakest growth in 17 months in July. The report Wednesday from the Institute for Supply Management confirms other data that show the economy is struggling two years after the recession officially ended. The trade group of purchasing executives said its index for services companies fell to 52.7, from 53.3 in June. Any reading above 50 indicates expansion. A slumping service sector put Wall Street on track for another wild day of

trading. The Dow Jones industrial average fell more than 150 points after the report was released. But a late-day rally erased all the earlier losses, and the Dow closed up 29 points to end an eightday losing streak. The ISM index covers 90 percent of the work force. It reached a five-year high of 59.7 in February, but has fallen since then. The July reading was the lowest since February 2010. New orders to service companies, an indication of future business, increased but at the slowest pace since August 2009, according to the ISM report. Services firms are still hiring more workers, the report said. But employment

growth dipped in July. The report “suggests that the economy is not slipping into a recession but instead that growth is very weak,” said Paul Dales, an economist at Capital Economics. Separately, the Commerce Department reported that businesses cut orders for airplanes, autos and heavy machinery in June. Factory orders dropped 0.8 percent, the second decline in three months. Demand for durable goods fell 1.9 percent in June. Durable goods are products that are expected to last at least three years.

NEW YORK -- Visits to WalMart’s U.S. locations open at least a year dropped 2.6 percent from February through June, according to an internal memo, while rivals are attracting customers. Those Wal-Mart stores had 82.8 million fewer visits through the first five months of the company’s fiscal year than a year earlier, says the memo, which was obtained by Bloomberg News. WalMart doesn’t disclose those traffic numbers, and David Tovar, a spokesman, declined to comment on the memo. Wal-Mart’s plan to recapture customers by returning thousands of products to U.S. store shelves has failed to reverse a decline in foot traffic at the world’s largest retailer, said Jeff Stinson, an analyst at Cleveland Research Co. That’s primarily because WalMart’s core low-income customers are shopping less and going to other retailers more often, according to two recent shopper surveys. Wal-Mart is restoring an average of 8,500 products to its stores to lure back shoppers still pinched by persistent unemployment and gas prices that have risen 36 percent in the past year. Sales in U.S. Wal-Mart stores open at least 12 months have declined for eight straight quarters. Wal-Mart’s traffic decline comes as some of its direct competitors are getting more visits. Dollar General Corp., the biggest dollar discount chain in the U.S., has increased traffic for 13 straight quarters, the company said June 1. At Target Corp., traffic rose for six consecutive quarters before falling in the first quarter of 2011. The two shopper surveys, from Morgan Stanley and retail consultancy WSL Strategic Retail, found that the removal of items from stores in 2009 to reduce clutter wasn’t among the top reasons why shoppers are visiting Wal-Mart less frequently. Many shoppers don’t believe Wal-Mart’s prices are the lowest anymore, the surveys found. These consumers are shifting more of their spending to dollar stores, Target, and supermarkets such as Kroger’s, WSL said.

Video gaming comes full circle with arrival of fun new titles VIDEO GAMES used to be a lot more fun. I remember staying up until the wee hours of the morning playing “Wing Commander,” “Master of Orion,” “Myst” and any number of other memorable titles. Sure, they had crummy graphics by today’s standards, but the game play was top-notch. Then, around the time that we started getting decent 3D graphics, something changed. Games began to shift away from campy or corny elements and focus on making things pretty. Or the developers spent too much time trying to make a game both beautiful and playable and it ended up being canceled altogether. It seemed like so much went into graphics that, in some cases, a lot of

TECH TALK

NICK DELORENZO what made a game fun to play went away. A case in point: “Master of Orion.” The first two installments were brilliant, beautiful, and particularly with the second installment, were both epic in scope and somewhat quirky. Then along came “Master of Orion 3.” The developers promised fans the world. What they got was a gutted project. They tried to do too much, with too little. And, like any other bad sequel, it killed that franchise. Other video game series, particularly “Wing Commander,” still have an extremely healthy and devoted fan base, but for some reason nobody’s done a “Wing Commander” game for years. The game play was there. The graphics were good, too. But, for the

IMAGE COURTESY OF ROCKSTAR GAMES.

past few years, no one seemed to care about truly innovative video game development. That may be starting to change. Some recent titles have abandoned their all-encompassing infatuation with pretty graphics and gone back to their roots. A game called “The Next Big Thing,” a quirky adventure title, was the first I’ve played in a while that actually made me laugh out loud. It had a distinctly cartoon-esque quality, it was bizarre but it had character. Another, the whimsically titled

“Gratuitous Space Battles,” basically has no plot, but lets you pit random spaceships against one another. It’s hard to articulate what makes it so much fun, but it is. It’s got just enough depth to be diverting, while still being light enough that you can easily walk away if you want. Even so-called “shooters” are starting to get it right. The “Dead Space” series, for example, is unmistakably a violent game, but the plot is compelling and it’s probably the most frightening and immersive game I’ve played in a while. A newly released game, “L.A. Noire,” promises to be another such title. It also features extremely realistic graphics, but follows the trend of having an excellent plot that captures players and reels them in. Whatever the case, the world of gaming is in flux, and, after something of a dry spell, some interesting things seem to be headed our way.

What happened?

On July 7, the Dow Jones industrial average was less than 100 points away from its high for 2011 of 12,810.54. Second-quarter earnings reports looked good. Economists were optimistic about the second half of the year. By Wednesday’s close, the Dow had fallen eight out of nine days. It lost 828 points, or 6.5 percent, and closed at 11,896.44. A look at what happened ...

... To the “relief rally” following the debt deal in Washington?

... To hopes for a stronger economy?

Investors were selling last week on fears that Congress and President Obama wouldn’t reach a deal to raise the nation’s debt ceiling and that the U.S. would default on its debt. Lawmakers agreed to cut $3.3 trillion in government spending. But ratings agency Standard & Poor’s warned that without a $4 trillion deal, the U.S. might lose its top AAA debt rating. Investors are worried that a downgrade is possible. The ISM report also helped kill the relief rally. Another concern: While lawmakers haggled, worried businesses put off hiring and families bought fewer home. That could hurt the economy as much as the earthquake in Japan, says KBW strategist Frederick Cannon.

When job growth stalled in May and June, financial analysts said the economy would recover in the second half of 2011. Gas prices would fall and the impact of the March 11 earthquake in Japan would lessen. Investors stopped believing after the government said Friday that the economy was weaker than expected in the first half. Monday brought the Institute for Supply Management’s report on manufacturing in July. It showed that the growth rate at the nation’s factories was the weakest in two years. Some economists are now lowering their forecasts.

... To the earnings rally? Second-quarter earnings reports started out strong. Companies like Apple and Coca-Cola reported income that was better than expected. In mid-July, the S&P 500 was up 2 percent for the month. That changed after companies began to express doubts about the economy. Manufacturer 3M said higher gas prices were holding back consumer spending. UPS warned the uneven economy could hurt its results. And Procter & Gamble said it expects almost no economic growth in developed countries. Investors now worry that companies may need to lower third-quarter earnings estimates because of the economy, says Howard Silverblatt of S&P.

Today will be an unusual day so far this summer as the temperature will fail to reach 80. That has happened only twice since the ďŹ rst of July. Indeed, we are having a very warm summer this year. In fact, July was the second-warmest July on record in the Poconos in 110 years of record keeping. Despite today's overcast, there is only a slight chance for a shower. We'll have only partial clearing heading into Friday, and the weekend should feature more clouds than sun. The chance for more rain will increase from late Saturday through Sunday, and weather could delay the race at Pocono. - Tom Clark

Professional takes readers behind seams By KATHY HAIGHT McClatchy Newspapers

Every person’s body has a different shape. And the same size dress made by two separate companies may fit a woman in totally different ways. That’s why alterations are so common, says Anna Chin, co-owner of Anna’s Alterations in Charlotte, N.C. Even in this tough economy, people continue to fill her three locations with jeans, bridesmaids gowns and just about anything else that needs a little work to get the right fit. We asked Chin to share her expert advice on getting clothes altered. She’s been doing it for more than 20 years, and here’s what she told us. ••• The easiest fixes The simplest and most common alterations are hemming, shortening sleeves and taking garments in at the waist. Making shoulder seams narrower is also usually a quick fix. You can always make pants shorter, but lengthening is tricky. “Sometimes, depending on the fabric, you can let out a hem,” Chin says, “especially if it’s wool.” Usually you won’t see a telltale line when letting out the hem on wool pants. Lines are more pronounced on a fabric such as khaki. Almost anything can be altered if the lines are simple enough. Hemming pants — the most common alteration — usually costs between $7 and $9.

By SAMANTHA CRITCHELL

The most challenging changes A body type with a small waist and much larger hips poses some of the greatest challenges. “Your hips might be a size 10 but your top could be a size 4,” Chin said. “We get that all the time.” Altering a bridesmaids dress, for example, for a woman with that body type is more involved. Prices vary depending on how the garment is constructed. The cost of altering a bridesmaids dress can range from $80 to $160. Delicate fabrics such as chiffon and garments with fine netting or mesh are difficult to work with. “They can get picked or damaged easily,” Chin says. Sweaters don’t always look right when altered, Chin says. They don’t have a hem, so you can’t shorten the body or sleeves without turning the fabric under and creating a somewhat bulky finish. Some high-end knits are difficult to alter successfully. And detailed stitching or cording on some designer clothes doesn’t hold up well when you try to make changes. A regular sewing machine can’t duplicate the stitching.

AP Fashion Writer

EW YORK — Some kids might look like they are getting dressed in the dark: crazy pattern combinations, clashing colors

and mismatched socks and shoes. Perhaps, though, they are making enlightened

fashion choices — choices that represent their personalities and budding senses of style and encourage fun and even a wink to convention. Eventually, children will start to notice trends, rules and peer pressure, but until then, experts say, let them wear their plaid on plaid, shocking pink with neon orange, and argyle with polkadots. And different colored socks, of course. They’ll look great doing it, if you don’t hold them back or challenge their confidence. (This is not giving license to youngsters for an inappropriate wardrobe, just a more creative one.) “Kids are interested in high fashion, and we have to fit that with our motto, which is ‘Long Live Fun,’ ” says Sarah Hough, vice president of design for 77 Kids, a label under the American Eagle umbrella. “Our assortment plays into that. We design not an eclectic mess, but we suggest ways kids can be more individual.” Be the sporty girl who’ll wear a glittery top, floral denim jeans and canvas high-top sneakers, Hough says. “Our girl can pull off mixing so many patterns and stripes and pieces in a way that we might not be able to do as adults, and the main reason is, she doesn’t care what we think.” “Everything looks good on children,” agrees Cathy Carrington-Birch, Mini Boden’s buying and merchandising director, who picks corduroy shorts paired with tights as a trend for girls this back-to-school season, and brushed tartan cargo pants for boys. “As a result, they’re confident enough to try combinations that adults would deem too daring. Once they reach a certain age, they have a very clear idea of what they like,” CarringtonBirch says. For now-9-year-old Ryland Doll, that day came early — back in preschool — and he’s carved out his own signature look ever

since. His mother, Mollie, describes a toddler who always seemed interested in his clothes, favoring “preppy” when he was very young. That soon changed to a look that beats its own drum. “In elementary school, he never wanted socks to match — that See MISMATCH, Page 2C

For people who lose weight Chin says cutting a garment down one or two sizes usually works well. Sometimes it’s possible to reduce the size further, depending on the construction of an item. “If a garment is a size 12 and you want to make it into a size 2,” she says, “that’s a lot harder.” When going for a fitting of any item to be altered, it’s best to wear the same shoes and undergarments you plan to wear with the outfit.

three colors on each shoe. That’s six different colors for those who keep up their mixed-pair ways, notes Christy Saito, the company’s senior director of product. Hough, the 77 Kids designer, gets a vicarious thrill from the greater freedom that children have to dress creatively. But she’s OK with not being able to pull off the multi-pattern look herself; you grow into an adult wardrobe, she says. “I’m hearing adults are liking our back-to-school line, but I don’t know if I’d like to see all the adults wearing it,” Hough says.

would drive me to distraction — but they can’t ever be the same color, and now it’s shoelaces,” says Doll, of Raleigh, N.C. It’s not that Ryland doesn’t care — that better describes his 6-year-old brother, Beckton, another one who wears those mismatched socks and shoes. Beckton’s real specialty is plaid-on-plaid. Ryland, says his mom, is “deliberate about being mishmosh, but the little one does it because he just doesn’t care.” Doll has grown to love the surf-meet-punk-sortof-clean-cut look that comes out the door each morning on the boys. “My mom would march me back to my room to change, but I think there are bigger fights to be had, and I’m proud of them that they are doing their own thing,” she says. She laughs: It also has made doing the laundry easier. “I used to match all socks so they were paired. Now I just throw them in the drawer.” Moms often warm up to the crazy combinations once their eyes adjust, observes Lori Twomey, chief merchant of the membership flash-sale website Zulily. How can they resist their little prince or princess who is loving styles that are bright, fun and whimsical? “They’ll mix fabrics together and colors that you say, ‘They don’t go,’ but then you see it and all of a sudden it works really well,” she says. More good news for parents paying for all this, according to Twomey, is that children have sharp opinions and deep loyalties. While an adult might buy something and then leave it in the closet for months (or years) never sure if it was worth purchasing, kids often want to wear their new items day after day and, when they’ve worn it out, they want a very similar thing in the size up. On the flip side, if they don’t like it on Day 1, you’re probably never getting them in it. Little Miss Matched, the 7-year-old brand that was among the first to package and market such fashion independence, encourages kids to find their voice in an arena that’s safe and still respectful. “It’s about allowing kids to break the rules — saying you can wear argyle and polka-dot socks — but it’s all still mother-approved,” says spokeswoman Kerry Brown. And, she adds, her brand does put a lot of thought into the seemingly crazy combinations. It’s the same story at Mini Boden, which offers some “ready-mixed” combos, such as a flowered jersey dress with striped arms, and tops that mix dots and stripes, which are popular for boys as well as older girls “who develop an allergy to floral prints,” says Carrington-Birch. Meanwhile, Crocs, after seeing so many children purposely wearing two shoes of different colors, launched its Electro collection, which features

Neighbor’s unwanted advances demand a swift response from woman Dear Abby: This is embarrassing to say, but yesterday my sister wanted to go tanning, so our neighbor’s father took us. After she got out of the car, he started to touch me inappropriately and say nasty things. I told him to stop and that I didn’t like it, but he kept on. Should I tell the police? Or my old social worker? I don’t know what to do. My sister and I stay home a lot because our parents work, and I’m afraid he’ll do something worse. Please don’t print my name or location. I don’t want my parents to know just yet. I’m 20 and don’t know how the law works for this type of assault.

DEAR ABBY ADVICE This is considered an assault, right? Please answer soon. — Scared On the East Coast Dear Scared: NO ONE has the right to put his hands on you without your permission! While what your neighbor’s father did may not have been an assault, it could be considered sexual battery. You should definitely inform your social worker right away. Your social worker will know how to handle the details. Dear Abby: My boyfriend was laid off 11 months ago and hasn’t been able

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

to find another job since. My problem is, he isn’t seriously looking for one. Every time I suggest he get one he becomes angry, or if I suggest a specific job he gives me some reason why he won’t take it — such as the pay is too low. He has no college education and no other formal schooling. I love him, and other than this our relationship is pretty great. But lately this is causing a major strain because I want more for him. I hold two jobs and will be continuing my B.S. in psychology next year. I have tried being nice, being rude, and discussing it with him. How can I make him see he needs to do more with his life than collect unemployment? — Striving Higher in California Dear Striving Higher: With today’s

CRYPTOQUOTE

job market what it is, it’s possible that without further training your boyfriend may not be able to find another job that offers the same wages and/ or benefits as the one he lost. Remind him that his unemployment benefits are finite. He needs to understand that when that happens, you are not going to support him. He may be depressed, but the longer he sits around, the longer it’ll take him to become motivated. Even if he can’t find work right now, he can seek job training. He can also do volunteer work, which would get him out and circulating and help him to make more contacts that could lead to permanent employment. Dear Abby: Let’s say you made arrangements with a friend and

then forgot about them, so you made other arrangements with someone else. When you discover your mistake, should you honor the first commitment? — Needs An Answer Soon Dear Needs An Answer: Yes, you should. To cancel the original plans would be rude. And when you make other arrangements with the “someone else,” you should apologize and explain that you had previous plans. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, self-addressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19). You would rather make an error because you didn’t yet have all of the information than make an error because you didn’t utilize the information you already had. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Your aim is ambitious. That is what makes it so compelling to you and others. So don’t let the odds diminish you. This is possible. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Are you growing or merely coping? You make so much happen in a day (and so much happens to you, as well) that you can’t help but wonder when the sun is setting how it’s all adding up. CANCER (June 22-July 22). You realize that everyone needs something, and you are quick to figure out how people can help each other. You may not be able to solve your own problem, but you’ll solve someone else’s. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). When there is much evidence to support a certain theory, something called “diagnosis momentum” can happen, and it becomes difficult to reach any conclusion other than the obvious one. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). Resist the urge to make a big deal about your mistakes. It will make a funny story later, but it’s too soon for all of that. Here’s a motto to live by under the current stars: Gloss over and move on. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Your love life doesn’t have to be a roller coaster or even an elevator. Today proves that it can be a walk in the park — an even, predictable and lovely excursion.

HOW TO CONTACT: Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Angeles, CA 90069

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You will be focused on the basics — like health, well-being and personal security. Finances come into the equation, as well. You’ll find peace in doing a quick inventory. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). The one who has your heart often controls your schedule, too. Sometimes it’s very difficult to look that person in the face and tell him no. But you may have to do exactly that today. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Love and belonging will feel more important than usual to you now, and rightly so. Feeling like you are a part of the group will help you develop your skills and talents. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). All facts seem to point to the same conclusion. But that doesn’t make the conclusion correct. Look at each fact separately to get a more accurate view. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). Your needs may seem well defined because you know exactly what they are. However, a loved one is still baffled. If you want to be fulfilled, you’ll have to spell it out. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (August 4). You’ll answer a call this month, and as a result, a relationship takes a leap forward. Dealing with men in general will be a forte of yours, and you’ll bond for fun and profit in September. You’ll solve a mystery in November. In January and May, you’ll have much to celebrate with a loved one. You’ll win a contest in June. Gemini and Libra people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 46, 3, 14, 39 and 11.
