Center City Cafe owner Donna YonKondy said the detour of traffic caused by the Hotel Sterling is causing her to lose business.

WILKES-BARRE – The Center City Cafe has a traffic problem, but not the sort that troubles many new restaurants. The city has changed the traffic pattern around the Hotel Sterling at the recommendation of two engineers who examined the crumbling 113-year-old

building. Now, there is too much traffic outside the sandwich shop on West Market Street, owner Donna YonKondy said. “I’m losing customers because they’re too frustrated waiting in traffic to stop,” YonKondy said, adding that business was down about 20 percent this week. The city on Wednesday finished installing a permanent detour that closes lanes on West Market Street and River Street, redirecting westbound traffic from West Market Street onto

COURT BRIEFS WILKES-BARRE – A Luzerne County senior judge formally denied a request by prosecutors to go through with the death-penalty sentence facing convicted murderer Michael Bardo. Senior Judge Patrick Toole presided over a hearing earlier this month in which Bardo said he changed his mind about going through with the death penalty. Bardo, 42, was convicted in January 1993 of first-degree murder and two counts of indecent aggravated assault for molesting and killing his 3-yearold niece, Joelle Donovan. He was sentenced to death, and a death warrant was signed by then-Gov. Ed Rendell in January 2006. Later that month, Toole issued a stay of execution, allowing Bardo’s attorneys time to review records and prepare an appeal. Prosecutors had asked that a judge vacate the stay of execution, which Toole denied Thursday, after Bardo wrote a letter in June asking to withdraw any Post Conviction Relief Act and to waive any further appeals to go through with his sentence. SCRANTON – A second man has agreed to plead guilty for his alleged role in the theft of guns during a burglary in Monroe County. David Toney, 20, of Norwood Avenue, Hanover Township, filed a plea agreement in federal court on Wednesday indicating he will plead guilty to aiding and abetting a theft from a federally licensed firearms dealer. A second accomplice, Jerome Sharr, 20, of South Empire Street, Wilkes-Barre, is expected to plead guilty to a similar charge for his alleged role in the burglary. The two men were indicted by a federal grand jury in June after allegedly smashing into the American Sport Shooting

Club near Brodheadsville and stealing 12 guns on Dec. 29, according to arrest records. State police recovered most of the weapons during unrelated investigations involving the two men into residential burglaries in Luzerne County. SWOYERSVILLE – A man accused of setting fire to a house waived his right to a preliminary hearing Thursday before District Judge David Barilla. Jason Wolfe, 24, of Church Street, waived two counts of arson and one count each of criminal mischief and criminal mischief to Luzerne County Court. Police withdrew a third count of arson against Wolfe. Police say Wolfe set a fire to a house at 32-34 Evans St., Pringle, after an argument with a relative on Sept. 11, according to a criminal complaint. SWOYERSVILLE – A man accused of fatally injuring a puppy pleaded guilty Thursday during a summary hearing before District Judge David Barilla. Phillip Charles Hall, 37, of Main Street, Luzerne, pleaded guilty to a summary count of cruelty to animals. He was fined $289. Police withdrew a misdemeanor count of cruelty to animals against Hall. Police said Hall threw a Shih Tzu puppy into a creek near Main Street on July 24. The puppy was euthanized at a veterinarian hospital, according to the criminal complaint. WILKES-BARRE – Aggravated assault and drunken driving charges against Tammy Sapp, 46, of North Main Street, were dismissed Thursday during a preliminary hearing in WilkesBarre Central Court. City police had accused Sapp of driving while under the influence of alcohol and striking three parked vehicles in the area of East Elm Street on Sept. 21. She was also accused of assault-

Henry Charles Hobbs, 25, of Curtain Street, Dupont, was charged with criminal mischief and public drunkenness. He was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $1,000 bail. Police allege Hobbs intentionally smashed a window at Sabatelle’s Market, South Main Street, about 12:30 a.m. Friday.

He had harsh words for the decision by the George W. Bush administration for deciding to go to war with Iraq and stretching our military and budget in the process. “We’re building roads, bridges and schools in Baghdad while we have roads, bridges and schools falling apart here,” Scaringi, a married father of three, said during a visit to The Times Leader on Friday. In addition, he said a balanced budget amendment and a term limit amendment for congressmen would be numbers one and two on the top of his list of goals if elected.

He says he is a member and called the group “the best thing to happen to the Republican Party since Ronald Regan switched his party registration from Democrat.”

Ex-mayor’s chopper use draws fire Hazle Twp. neighbors suing to stop Michael Marsicano from flying his helicopter to and from his property. By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A Hazle Township couple have filed a lawsuit seeking to block former Hazleton Mayor Michael Marsicano from landing his helicopter on a helipad at his home, which a township official says was constructed without seeking any township permits. RichardandTraceyFranzosaofPardeesville Road say Marsicano, a licensed pilot, has made their lives “intolerable” since he began taking off and landing his helicopter on his propertylocatedinaresidential area at 1135 Pilot Point. The Franzosa’s attorney,DonaldKarpowich, Marsicano said the helicopter creates excessive noise and causes the windows in the Franzosas’ home, which is about 100 feet away from the helipad, to shake violently whenever it lands or departs. The continued disruptions have causedthemtolosetheuseandenjoyment of their property. “Can you imagine being 100 feet away and having a helicopter take off? The noise is unbelievable,” Karpowich said Friday. “He uses the thing like a personal automobile. He’s in and out three or four times a day.Hehasnoregardforthepersonalproperty of others.” Karpowich said Luzerne County Judge David Lupas issued an order Thursday forbidding Marsicano from using the helipad pending a preliminary injunction hearing scheduled for Oct. 5. According to the lawsuit, Hazle Township issued a cease-and-desist order to Marsicano after the Franzosas complained.Hediscontinueduseofthehelipad temporarily, but resumed using it on Sept. 26. Charles Pedri, solicitor for Hazle Township,saidMarsicanoneversoughtbuilding permits or zoning approval before constructing the helipad in July. Pedri said Marsicano appealed the cease-and-desist order to the township’s zoningboard,whichheldahearingonAug. 23. There was no resolution to the dispute, however,asMarsicanoclaimedthehelipad is located in Butler Township, therefore Hazle Township lacked jurisdiction. Even if the helipad is located in Butler Township, Pedri said he believes Marsicano would still be precluded from landing the helicopter there because Butler Township has the same restrictions. The lawsuit also seeks more than $50,000 in damages from Marsicano. Marsicano hung up on a reporter seeking comment from him Friday regarding the lawsuit. His attorney, Conrad Falvello, did not return a message seeking comment.

In a letter to the PAC’s treasurer, Nancy Kanjorski, a commission senior campaign finance analyst writes that two lines in the report reflect figures that conflict with other portions of the report. One represents the Kanjorski total cash-on-hand as of Jan. 1, 2011, of $53,045.39. On a corresponding line showing total cash on hand at the beginning of the reporting period, which is also Jan. 1, 2011, the amount reported is $106,674.92. “These two figures should be the same for the first report of the year,” the letter signed by Daniel Buckley points out. A similar discrepancy is referenced having to do with total cash on hand at the end of the reporting period on June 30, 2011 different from the total cash on hand reported as of June 30, 2011. Kanjorski, D-Nanticoke, lost his re-election bid last year to former Hazleton Mayor Lou Barletta, but the PAC continues to disburse funds. WEST PITTSTON

‘Poetry in Transit’ brings verse to masses By CAMILLE FIOTI Times Leader Correspondent

WILKES-BARRE – The bustling Intermodal Center was the setting for the fifth annual “Poetry in Transit” program Friday evening. Amid the bellowing arrival and departure announcements, a number of local poets gathered in the center of the lobby to recite their poems, which will be featured on the Luzerne County Transportation Authority buses for a year. Placards featuring poems of 14 local poets were unveiled at the event and will be placed alongside advertisements inside the buses. The poems will

be rotated throughout the year from bus to bus. Mischelle Anthony, an associate professor of English at Wilkes University, started the project in 2007 with 12 placards featuring the work of 20th-century masters such as William Wordsworth, Emily Dickinson and Robert Frost. The work of local poets was introduced in 2008. Original photographs taken by Mark Golaszewski highlighted the poems on the placards. Scott Zimmerman, 39, of WilkesBarre, attended the event to support his fellow poets. His poem, titled “Baker’s Dozen,” about 13 windmills in the Pottsville area that Zimmerman drives by regularly, was part of the previous

year’s collection. A panel of advisory judges from local colleges and universities decided on 15 out of 28 poems that were submitted. The LCTA has funded the project, which costs roughly $2,000 a year, since its inception five years ago. Anthony closed the program with a reading of one of her own poems. Taken from a book of a collection of Anthony’s many poems, “Spider” described the terror she felt at 7 years old after spotting a tarantula in the driveway of her Oklahoma home one morning. “Its legs bent out from an army green body resembling the pipe cleaners I used in Bible school to make little fuzzy disciples – I knew I had to kill it.”

Former FEMA deputy chief offers help to Shickshinny By TOM HUNTINGTON Times Leader Correspondent

SHICKSHINNY – A former FEMA deputy chief of staff under President George W. Bush told Shickshinny Borough Council on Friday that it will have to come up with a 25 percent share of whatever recovery funds the Federal Emergency Management Agency might provide after recent flooding. Scott R. Morris, founder and president of a company called Cowbell who said he is in the business of providing disaster services, estimated flood damages in the borough at $2,182,500. Morris said he was encouraged to travel to Shickshinny but would not say by whom. He said he formerly served as a

director for FEMA, and, during the Bush administration, was its deputy chief of staff. Most recently, he said, he provided disaster services in Texas. He said he formed Cowbell to offer independent assistance based on his experience with FEMA. Council President Rosalie Whitebread said the borough is essentially “broke” and a 25 percent share “is something the borough just doesn’t have.” A general discussion about flood debris on the streets ensued, and Councilman Joe Noss said it seems to increase each day. Councilman Mike Steeber suggested an Oct. 7 deadline for the borough to pick up flood debris. There-

after, homeowners will have to pay their own costs. Council is scheduled to meet in regular session at 6 p.m. Tuesday at the fire hall on West Union Street, at which time FEMA and PEMA representatives will be present, secretary-treasurer Melissa Weber said. She also said representatives of the offices of state Sen. Lisa Baker, state Rep. Karen Bobeck and U.S. Rep. Lou Barletta will be invited to the public meeting. Morris stressed that all volunteer services, relief projects and emergency work should be documented thoroughly. “FEMA wants detailed paperwork in order to make recovery projects eligible for funding,” he said.

Tetanus vaccinations set

Wilkes-Barre General Hospital will hold an additional vaccination clinic to provide free tetanus vaccinations to individuals age 16 and older. The clinic will take place today from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the First United Methodist Church, 408 Wyoming Ave., West Pittston. LUZERNE

‘Lions for Lambs’ screening

The Peace and Justice Center will present a free screening of the movie “Lions for Lambs” at 7 p.m. Saturday on the second floor of the Betz-Jastremski Funeral Home building, 568 Bennet St., Luzerne. Rated R, the 2007 drama stars Tom Cruise as a Washington bigwig who goes toe-to-toe with a reporter, played by Meryl Streep, on the issue of U.S. troops in Afghanistan. And Robert Redford portrays an idealistic professor who tries to keep his students engaged as two of his former pupils struggle to survive behind enemy lines in the Middle East. Redford also directed the movie. SCRANTON

Diocese aiding flood victims

The Diocese of Scranton has raised $220,000 to aid flood victims so far, and provided assistance to 1,242 households, but the effort isn’t over. The recent edition of The Catholic Light, the diocesan newspaper reported the progress of the relief effort, noting that people can still contribute and flood victims can still get help. Those who want to donate can write a check to the Diocesan Relief Fund and give it to their local parish or send it directly to the fund at The Diocese of Scranton, 300 Wyoming Ave., Scranton, Pa. 18503. Those seeking help can contact the Catholic Social Services at the Wilkes-Barre office, 570-822-7118, or call the Diocesan Office of Parish Life and Evangelization at 570-2072213.

Politicos implicate DA in judicial scandal Young Republicans wish to “clean house,” say she abdicated responsibility. By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – The Luzerne County Young Republicans have gone on the attack against District Attorney Jacqueline Musto Carroll, issuing a press release Thursday that criticizes her handling of the juvenile-justice scandal. The release poses nine questions to Musto Carroll, most of

which related to shortcomings within the District Attorney’s office cited by the Interbranch Commission on JuMusto Carroll venile Justice, the special panel appointed to investigate the scandal involving former judges Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan. Musto Carroll, a Democrat, is seeking a second term as district attorney. She faces attorney Stefanie Salavantis, a Republican who won a write-in spot on the

general election ballot. Bob Zaruta, Young Republicans president, said Salavantis played no part in the creation or issuance of the press release. Zaruta said the group issued the release because it wants to “clean house” of anyone who played a role, by commission or omission, in permitting the juvenile scandal to go on for so long. “There were people who didn’t do their job. Jackie Musto Carroll is one of them. The commission’s report clearly supports that,” Zaruta said. The Interbranch Commission investigated abuses of juveniles’

Zola wants lawyers after all By SHEENA DELAZIO sdelazio@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – In another indecisive move just days before his homicide trial is scheduled to begin, Robert George Zola changed his mind again. On Thursday, Zola wrote a letter to Judge Joseph Cosgrove requesting to represent himself, after citing numerous differences with his attorneys, Ferris Webby and Joseph Yeager. On Friday, Cosgrove scheduled a hearing to address Zola’s request. “I want to withdraw those letters,” Zola said, saying he changed his mind on self-representation. Zola, 46, is charged in the December 2009 stabbing death of 35-year-old Rosemarie Cave in her Plymouth home. According to court papers, on Dec. 14, 2009, he pulled Cave into her apartment and attacked her. Police said Zola stabbed Cave multiple times with a kitchen knife at her Nottingham Street residence as her 17-year-old daughter slept in a second-floor bedroom. Cosgrove called Zola and his attorneys, as well as Assistant District Attorneys Chester Dudick and Alexis Falvello, into his chambers briefly during Friday’s hearing to discuss the trial schedule. The trial is scheduled to begin

proved for Luzerne County residents, $11.3 million was for rental assistance. The remainder was for other needs such as replacement or repair of damaged items. • Of the $2.8 million for Wyoming County, $2.6 million went for rental assistance. Shortage of rentals “FEMA is aware that there’s a shortage of rental properties in the area. We’re addressing it,” Sweet said. “Temporary housing units can be brought in when there’s a shortage of rental resources.” Sweet said there is no need for people to call FEMA to request temporary housing units, which many refer to as FEMA trailers, because FEMA teams are working to identify which flood victims might need and would qualify for a trailer based on reports completed by inspectors who visit flood victims’ homes. He said the home must be unlivable and have sustained real property damage in excess of $11,000. “Calling the 800 number to request a trailer is not going to get you one any faster,” Sweet said. He also said FEMA cannot make public where trailers are sent because of federal privacy laws. While the region saw makeshift trailer parks after the flood of 1972 when more than 10,000 trailers were brought here, Sweet said there’s no way to predict how many are needed now. Neither could he estimate how long it would take FEMA to contact all applicants. As of Thursday, FEMA identified 2,721 people in

Monday with any motions requests from attorneys before a jury is selected. Earlier this week, Cosgrove held another hearing for Zola after receiving more letters from him asking to have new attorneys assigned to his case or to represent himself. Cosgrove denied those requests for a fifth time. In a letter written to Cosgrove dated Sept. 19, Zola asked to represent himself because, he claimed, his attorneys were unable to “fairly (and) competently” represent him. Zola cited a meeting at the Luzerne County prison that same day during which, he alleges Yeager verbally attacked him and cursed at him. “I am asking the court to provide protection for me when Mr. Yeager will be in my presence,” Zola wrote. “I am asking the court again to remove my entire defense counsel and provide alternative conflict counsel.” In July, Zola withdrew a guilty plea to a third-degree homicide charge in Cave’s death. Zola had previously claimed attorneys didn’t explain to him the different degrees of homicide. “I was pressured, coerced and forced into this guilty plea,” he wrote in a letter to Cosgrove.

the state who might need a trailer, attempted to call 1,824 of them and, of those, identified 249 people who FEMA representatives believe will need one, Sweet said. The region is currently experiencing a shortage of rental units for a number of reasons, and the addition of flooding victims has made the situation worse, said Rita Dallago, of the Pennsylvania Residential Owners Association, a statewide group that advocates for rental property owners. “The market has gotten rather tight for a lot of reasons – the eAnomy, foreclosures,” Dallago said. “Availability hasn’t been as good as it once was, and this is making it a little bit tighter.” Being accommodating Dallago said the state Department of Community and Economic Development recently contacted her group to ask that its members be more flexible with flood victims seeking rentals in terms of the length of the lease and the amount of security deposit. “Instead of asking for a one-year term lease, if people can get back to their homes in a shorter time, they’re asking us to be flexible. They’re also asking us to be workable with the security deposit, keeping in mind these people are putting out money in all directions,” she said. That requires rental owners to take on more risk than normal, but Dallago said most of the group’s members have been receptive to the suggestions. “They’re asking us to be good Samaritans. Sometimes no good deed goes unpunished. We just have to work with people who are applying and use our best judgment,” she said.

rights that led the state Supreme Court in 2009 to vacate the convictions of thousands of youths who appeared before Ciavarella. The commission’s report, released in May 2010, faulted numerous people, including former Luzerne County District Attorney David Lupas, who is now a county judge, and Musto Carroll, who served as first assistant district attorney under Lupas. The commission concluded that Lupas and Musto Carroll should have done more to ensure assistant district attorneys who appeared in juvenile court were better trained to spot abus-

es of juveniles’ rights. The Young Republicans seized on that issue in their press release, asking Musto Carroll, “How can the residents of Luzerne County have any faith that you will not continue to abdicate your responsibility since you have already set abdication of responsibility as a precedent?” Musto Carroll declined Friday to comment or address the questions in the release. She and Lupas have said assistant district attorneys never made them aware of concerns they had in juvenile court.

PLYMOUTH – Council members this week thanked all the borough employees and volunteers who helped out during this month’s flooding. At Tuesday night’s meeting, Council President Frank Coughlin said everyone put the needs of others above themselves. From residents volunteering to fill sandbags to employees working double shifts with no sleep, everyone gave it their all, he said. “I want to extend a deep thanks,” Coughlin said. “We really do appreciate all the help.” Councilman Tom McTague told residents that getting federal and state assistance isn’t easy, but the borough is working on it. “I know how disgusted some of you are,” McTague said. “We’re up to our elbows in paperwork.” What’s most frustrating, he said, is the borough is still suffering from the same flooding issues today as it did when the Agnes Flood struck in 1972. The county should have corrected the problems when the levee was raised, he added. Coughlin said a large pump had to be rented for areas near the levee system to save about 30 residents’ homes. The borough will look into renting long term or securing money to purchase a pump of its own, he said. Coughlin said he was in Harrisburg on Tuesday to attend a hearing with state Sen. Lisa Baker on establishing an emergency fund for disasters. Plymouth Borough and Plymouth Township were the only two called to testify. Along with Plymouth Township, the borough is always one of the hardest hit by flooding, he said. In other business, council: • Hired Amanda Marino, Mariette Eichel and Joseph Skvarla as school crossing guards at $8.50 per hour. • Adopted a resolution approving a cooperation agreement with the county for $179,750 worth of street improvements.

Drilling creates jobs

U.S. Bureau of Labor T heStatistics stated two western

Pennsylvania counties were among the top 10 in the nation for employment gains in large counties between March 2010 and March 2011. Washington County was third, with 4.3 percent growth, and Butler County was sixth, at 4.2 percent. Elkhart, Ind., was on top at 6.2 percent. The survey looked at counties with 75,000 or more employees. Washington County director of administration Scott Fergus said most of the job growth there is tied to Marcellus Shale gas drilling. He said the impact has trickled down to motels, restaurants and the real estate industry. Joel MacKay of the Butler County Planning Commission said thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s some Marcellus activity there, but he attributes most of the growth to a move there by Westinghouse Co.

Capitol Police spokeswoman Sgt. Kimberly Schneider said in a statement conditions at the Capitol, now largely empty because lawmakers are on vacation, were normal. The Onion tweets and article spoke of members congressional leaders, â&#x20AC;&#x153;brandishing shotguns and semiautomatic pistols,â&#x20AC;? taking a class of schoolchildren hostage and threatening to kill them if they didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get $12 trillion in cash.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Hispanic students have started vanishing from Alabama public schools in the wake of a court ruling that upheld the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tough new law cracking down on illegal immigration. Education officials say scores of immigrant families have withdrawn their children from classes or kept them home this week, afraid that sending the kids to school would draw attention from authorities. There are no precise statewide numbers. But several districts with large immigrant enrollments â&#x20AC;&#x201D; from small towns to large urban districts â&#x20AC;&#x201D; reported a sudden exodus of children of Hispanic parents, some of whom told officials they would leave the state to avoid trouble with the law, which requires schools to check studentsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; immigration

status. The anxiety has become so intense that the superintendent in one of the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest cities, Huntsville, went on a Spanishlanguage television show Thursday to try to calm widespread worries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the case of this law, our students do not have anything to fear,â&#x20AC;? Casey Wardynski said in halting Spanish. He urged families to send students to class and

explained that the state is only trying to compile statistics. Police, he insisted, were not getting involved in schools. In Montgomery County, more than 200 Hispanic students were absent the morning after the judgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Wednesday ruling. A handful withdrew. In tiny Albertville, 35 students withdrew in one day. And about 20 students in Shelby County, in suburban Birmingham, either

withdrew or told teachers they were leaving. Local and state officials are pleading with immigrant families to keep their children enrolled. The law does not ban anyone from school, they say, and neither students nor parents will be arrested for trying to get an education. But many Spanish-speaking families arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t waiting around to see what happens.

Syrian troops battle renegade soldiers as thousands protest At least 11 protesters were killed and scores were wounded, human rights groups said. Violence grows in what was peaceful uprising.

By BASSEM MROUE Associated Press

BEIRUT â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Syrian troops fought intense battles Friday with hundreds of fellow soldiers who have turned their weapons against the regime of President Bashar Assad, revealing the increasingly militarized nature of an uprising started months ago by peaceful protesters. Across the country, tens of thousands of demonstrators took to the streets as they do each Friday, braving gunfire by government forces who have waged a relentless crack-

down. At least 11 protesters were killed and scores were wounded, human rights groups said. Opposition activists and the governAssad ment confirmed a fourth straight day of battles in Rastan, just north of the central city of Homs. The fighting, which began with a government assault on Tuesday, is some of the most intense since the outpouring against Assadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s re-

gime began in mid-March. The army defections as well as reports that once-peaceful protesters are increasingly taking up arms to fight the 6-month-old government crackdown have raised concerns of the risk of civil war in a country with a deep sectarian divide. The army defectors involved in battles in the Rastan area and in the Jabal al-Zawiyah region in the northern Idlib province number around 2,000, according to another prominent rights activist who spoke anonymously.

Accident survivor ate bugs

Man not found until 6 days after driving off cliff and suffering fractured back. By ELMERALDA BURMUDEZ Los Angeles Times

VALENCIA, Calif. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; A doctor who treated a 67-year-old Southern California man who survived for six days on bugs and leaves after his car plunged off a cliff said Friday the man was â&#x20AC;&#x153;quite scared but also quite hopefulâ&#x20AC;? during the ordeal. David LaVau, of Lake Hughes, could hear cars passing on the road above the deep ravine where he was stuck with a dislocated shoulder and a fractured back, he told the nurses at the hospital after he was rescued Thursday night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As he was down there eating bumblebees and ants and leaves, he could visualize the cars passing by above and hear them,â&#x20AC;? said Dr. Garrett Sutter, who was working in the ER at Henry Mayo Newhall Memorial Hospital in Valencia when LaVau was airlifted in. LaVau remained in his car overnight after the Sept. 23 crash and the next day crawled out, only to see a dead man in another car that had apparently plunged over the cliff before him, said the California Highway Patrol, which had no more information on that crash. Sutter said he never saw â&#x20AC;&#x153;anyone go through this kind of a plunge do so remarkably.â&#x20AC;? LaVau told the nurses that headlights momentarily blinded him and caused him to drive off the cliff.

STATE OPINION: REVENUE

Gas and liquor separate issues

OR THE SECOND time this year, the top Senate Republican is throwing cold water on plans to privatize liquor stores in Pennsylvania. Senate President Pro Tem Joe Scarnati, who in July said he favored giving state-owned liquor stores more flexibility in hours and pricing before exploring the option of selling them, this week warned that a soon-to-be-released report raises serious questions about the fiscal feasibility of putting the LCB out of business. If a measure introduced by Republican House Majority Leader Mike Turzai becomes law, Scarnati says the state will have to cut services or hike the tax on liquor to generate the same revenue the state gets from the current system. Supporters of Turzai’s plan have explained that the gallonage tax as drafted in his bill can be modified and, so far, it’s impossible to tell what items might end up costing more, less or the same if it is enacted. Scarnati’s tortured

public position just complicates the discussion. What he’s actually doing is engaging in political horse trading, trying to drum up support for his priority: instituting an impact fee on natural gas drillers tapping into the Marcellus Shale deposits under Pennsylvania. We agree the levy is necessary to help address the costs and potential environmental damage associated with the burgeoning drilling industry here. But there is no logical reason to link the drilling levy with the LCB. Both proposals have merit. Pennsylvania must impose a fee or tax on companies that have the most to gain from extracting Marcellus Shale gas. Likewise, Pennsylvania must get out of the business of selling liquor. These sound measures should be enacted. They’re strong positions favored by the residents of Pennsylvania, and they deserve to stand on their own. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Benefits of college education go beyond the degree WHY IS a college education important? At face value, that appears to be a simple question to answer. More opportunities, better job security and advanced critical-thinking skills are just a few of the advantages college graduates enjoy due to their two- or four-year degrees. But in today’s ever-changing world what appears to be simple oftentimes ends up being convoluted by outside forces, such as our stagnant national economy. Thanks to this era of tight credit and high unemployment, some people are beginning to doubt the value and benefits of a college education. In doing so, many people are shortchanging their futures for the here and now. One of the major benefits of the college experience is the intangible impact collegeeducated individuals have in our society. The cultural enrichment that occurs from interacting with sundry individuals from all over the world is immeasurable. In today’s multicultural and complex world, understanding the cultures of other nations and individuals is invaluable. Many of society’s prejudices and stereotypes come from the lack of understanding of other cultures and how that impacts behavior at global, national and individual levels. President Obama’s meeting with the emperor of Japan and the fallout is instructive of cultural differences at a global level. The appreciation of a work of art, a painting and, yes, a piece of music is a byproduct of culture. College endeavors to teach stu-

For more than 87 years, Misericordia University has been imbuing in its students a sense of service to others. This effort has been recognized by President Obama, who acknowledged the work of the university by naming it to the 2010 President’s Higher Education Community Honor Roll. Misericordia has been on the President’s Honor Roll four consecutive years and this year received a “With Distinction’’ designation, an honor given to only a few colleges in the country. Examples of service to others abound at Misericordia. Many of our academic classes have service-learning components to them. As someone who teaches one of these classes, I can tell you that my students have gained valuable insights into different cultures from their work at public schools in the region as after-school tutors. Comments from them have indicated that their introduction to new cultures has been the highlight of their college experiences. Now prepared with cultural acumen, these students can contribute to society in a myriad of positive ways. They will leave college as cultured individuals. One cannot put a price tag on such learning. These are the students who eventually will work for non-governmental orga-

W-B/Scranton Penguins need more NHL support

ith the start of a new season for the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, I, like most fans, am wondering if we ever will get the Cup. Last year we had the best team in the American Hockey League, the best coach and the best goalie. I believe the main thing we were missing was help from our affiliate NHL team in Pittsburgh. It seems that when the playoffs come around, every other team sends down players to help out. Maybe this is something Pittsburgh Penguins General Manager Ray Shero needs to look into.

nizations and community agencies because they take pride in helping others less fortunate in society. They are more likely to vote and participate in civic society, and for many of them, the environment will become a major concern. Another aspect of the intangible impact of a college education is the camaraderie among students that is promoted through sports, club activities and other related outlets. Many residential colleges have athletic complexes and special activities for students that teach the value of teamwork, healthy living and leadership. These opportunities contribute to making society more productive, helping to reduce health care costs and also producing more well-rounded individuals. The concept of lifelong learning that society is promoting is best exemplified in a collegiate setting. The chances are that a good number of college graduates will continue to want to learn during their lifetimes. Having been exposed to the joy and beauty of learning and the possibilities that follow, college graduates will not be content with their current knowledge and skill sets. More and more people are returning to college – not necessarily to get a degree – but to learn new skills and improve on their hobbies or interests, be it painting or an appreciation of music. These are byproducts of a college education that cannot be easily quantified financially.

instead of awarding all of Pennsylvania’s 20 electoral votes to the winner of the popular vote for president, like all but two other states, they instead should go to each congressional district. That sounds like a fair idea and it would be, if the districts were fairly apportioned. Problem is, the state Legislature does the carving up of the districts. Does anyone think the state Legislature can do anything fairly? So, with a majority of Pennsylvanians being Democrats, and the Legislature having a majority of Republicans, the state could vote overwhelmingly for a Democrat; but with 12 of the 18 districts skewed toward Republicans, the Republican would

‘TRAIN’ Act will place residents’ health at risk

ast month, the U.S. House of Representatives – with Rep. Lou Barletta’s support – passed the “TRAIN” Act, legislation that could result in lives lost. This piece of legislation would indefinitely delay standards that limit soot, smog, mercury and other toxic pollutants from power plants. Every year, Pennsylvanians could suffer more asthma attacks, hospitalizations and premature deaths from air pollution. There is no excuse for putting Pennsylvanians’ lives at risk.

THE TIMES LEADER This October 2008 file photo by Muhammad ud-Deen shows Imam Anwar al-Awlaki in Yemen. Yemen’s Defense Ministry said in a statement Friday that the U.S.-born al-Qaida cleric was killed in an attack by U.S. drone aircraft along with another U.S. citizen, Samir Khan, in Yemen on Friday.

cific imminent threat and there were no other means to stop him. But U.S. District Judge John Bates threw out the lawsuit in December, saying a judge does not have authority to review the president’s military decisions and that Awlaki’s father did not have the legal right to sue on behalf of his son. But Bates also seemed troubled by the facts of the case, which he wrote raised vital considerations of national security and for military and foreign affairs. For instance, the judge questioned why courts have authority to approve surveillance of Americans overseas but not their killing and whether the president could order an assassination of a citizen without “any form of judicial process whatsoever.” U.S. officials have said they believe al-Awlaki inspired the actions of Army psychiatrist Maj. Nidal Hasan, who is charged with 13 counts of premeditated murder and 32 counts of attempted premeditated murder in the attack at Fort Hood, Texas. In New York, the PakistaniAmerican man who pleaded guilty to the May 2010 Times Square car bombing attempt said he was “inspired” by al-Awlaki after making Internet contact. Al-Awlaki also is believed to have had a hand in mail bombs addressed to Chicago-area synagogues, packages intercepted in

Dubai and Europe in October 2010. Al-Awlaki’s death “will especially impact the group’s ability to recruit, inspire and raise funds as al-Awlaki’s influence and ability to connect to a broad demographic of potential supporters was unprecedented,” said terrorist analyst Ben Venzke of the private intelligence monitoring firm, the IntelCenter. But Venzke said the terror group al-Qaida in the Arabian Peninsula will remain the most dangerous regional arm “both in its region and for the direct threat it poses to the U.S. following three recent failed attacks,” with its leader Nasir al-Wahayshi still at large. Al-Awlaki wrote an article in the latest issue of the terror group’s magazine justifying attacking civilians in the West. It’s titled “Targeting the Populations of Countries that Are at War with the Muslims.” Al-Awlaki served as imam at the Dar al-Hijrah mosque in Falls Church, Va., a Washington suburb, for about a year in 2001. The mosque’s outreach director, Imam Johari Abdul-Malik, has said that mosque members never saw al-Awlaki espousing radical ideology while he was there and that he believes Awlaki’s views changed after he left the U.S. Chaump said he hasn’t heard many complaints about the new traffic pattern yet, but the association plans to discuss the issue at its monthly meeting Oct. 7. “There’s a lot of complaints about the whole situation with the building, but I think everybody understands it’s a safety hazard and it’s being taken care of,” Chaump said.

that was necessary to keep the franchise in Northeastern Pennsylvania. The work could have been done in one or two off seasons or straight on through after the completion of the 2011 season. The commissioners and the county Multi-Purpose Stadium Authority agreed last year to sell the franchise to a joint venture between Mandalay Baseball Properties LLC and Yankee Global Enterprises LLC for $14.6 million. The deal that includes a 30-year lease of the new stadium has yet to be finalized. A portion of the sale proceeds will be added to money coming from other sources to match $20 million the state has approved for the construction. However there is litigation still pending between Lackawanna and Luzerne counties over the sale. Luzerne County said it is owed half of the proceeds because it put up $1 million to purchase the franchise in 1986. Lackawanna County countersued, saying Luzerne County owes millions for repairs done on the stadium.

gence to justify the killing of a U.S. citizen. Khan, who was from North Carolina, wasn’t considered operational but had published seven issues of Inspire Magazine, offering advice on how to make bombs and the use of weapons. After the strike, a U.S. official said al-Awlaki specifically directed the men accused of trying to bomb a Detroit-bound plane to detonate an explosive device over U.S. airspace to maximize casualties on Christmas day in 2009. The official also said al-Awlaki had a direct role in supervising and directing a failed attempt to bring down two U.S. cargo aircraft by detonating explosives. The U.S. also believes Awlaki had sought to use poisons, including cyanide and ricin, to attack Westerners. Al-Awlaki was killed by the same U.S. military unit that got Osama bin Laden. Al-Awlaki is the most prominent al-Qaida figure to be killed since bin Laden’s death in May. U.S. word of al-Awlaki’s death came after the government of Yemen reported he had been killed Friday.

The air strike was carried out more openly than the covert operation that sent Navy SEALs into bin Laden’s Pakistani compound, U.S. officials said. Al-Awlaki’s death is the latest in a run of high-profile kills for Washington under President Barack Obama. But the killing raises questions that the death of other al-Qaida leaders, including bin Laden, did not. Al-Awlaki is a U.S. citizen, born in New Mexico to Yemeni parents, who had not been charged with any crime. Civil liberties

groups have questioned the government’s authority to kill an American without trial. Awlaki’s father, Nasser al-Awlaki of Yemen, had sued President Barack Obama and other administration officials 13 months ago to try to stop them from targeting his son for death. The father, represented by the American Civil Liberties Union and the Center for Constitutional Rights, argued that international law and the Constitution prevented the administration from assassinating his son unless he presented a spe-

The city has petitioned the state to redirect a $275,000 local share assessment grant from gaming revenue awarded to the Sterling’s owner, CityVest Corporation, for stabilization of the hotel, McLaughlin said, but the city hasn’t received an answer yet. He acknowledged the inconvenience, but said the detour is necessary to protect the public.

Wyoming Area offensive continues seemed to frustrate Nanticoke all Warriors dominate third night. consecutive opponent as they The Warriors outgained the roll past Nanticoke. Trojans 515 yards to 180 as they By JOHN GORDON jgordon@timesleader.com

WEST PITTSTON – Wyoming Area suffered a heartbreaking loss in week one to Western Wayne. Week two was washed away by the flood of 2011. Weeks three and four saw the Warrior offense open in decisive fashion as they hammered conference rivals Lake Lehman and Hanover Area by a combined total of 91-10. Friday night was no different. Nanticoke never had a chance against a Warrior team which was clicking in all phases of the game as they pummeled the Trojans 48-6 in front of a raucous crowd. On offense, Nick O’Brien provided the flash, Ahmad Bouie supplied the dash, and the defense dominated with a smash and bash style of play that

ran and passed at will on a defense that could not seem to gain its legs as the evening progressed. “Tempo ignites a game,” Wyoming Area coach Randy Spencer said. “Even though we did not have great field position we were able to have big plays.” Those big plays came early and often as junior quarterback Nick O’Brien flashed a sample of his playmaking brilliance on the very first offensive play for Wyoming Area after a three and out by Nanticoke. O’Brien tucked the ball away on a keeper and rambled 77 yards down the right sideline and staked the warriors to a quick 7-0 lead just 1:43 into the game. Senior back Ahmad Bouie added to the lead five minutes later when he caught a perfectly thrown ball from O’Brien for a 39yard score with 5:39 to go in the first quarter. Bouie had two

catches for 50 yards and a score. O’Brien completed all eight of his pass attempts for 246 yards and three touchdowns including an amazing one handed grab by senior Joseph Adonzio in the left corner of the end zone to make it 21-0 late in the opening quarter. O’Brien rumbled 32 yards for pay dirt late in the second quarter as the warriors took a 28-0 lead into the locker room at halftime. O’Brien finished the game with 116 yards and two touchdowns on six carries. “I try to score on every play,” O‘Brien said. “My line kept giving me the spots to make the plays and I was pumped.” Coach Spencer has seen the multi-talented O’Brien mature and grow into an explosive offensive weapon. “Number 8 makes great decisions. He creates, and that makes me confident as well as the rest of the team.” Spencer said. The confidence was contagious Friday as Ahmad Bouie dashed for 100 yards on three car-

ries and scored on runs of 41 and 55 yards in the third quarter that all but sealed the Trojans fate with a 41-6 advantage. “The holes would close but I would see the backside open,” Bouie said. “On the pitch I just cut it back and trusted O’Brien to make that key block. He smashed the guy.” O’Brien was all smiles when asked about the block. “Everyone is always doing a good job blocking for me so I figured it was time for me to spring a big run,” he said jovially. “Our goal now is to win out game by game and win a district championship,” O’Brien said.

Politz leads Rangers to win over Hanover By JOHN MEDEIROS jmedeiros@timesleader.com

SHICKSHINNY – There wasn’t much that went wrong for Northwest’s Tony Politz on Friday night. On defense, he intercepted a pass and made seven tackles. On special teams, he had more than 100 return yards and a touchdown. And on offense, he ran for 193 yards, and a game-clinching score. About the only thing that didn’t go his way on this day was his halfback option pass in which he overthrew his target. Nobody’s perfect, but Politz sure was close. Politz had three touchdowns and 350 all-purpose yards as Northwest outlasted Hanover Area 42-28 at Lewis and Miller Stadium. “I’m sore. I’m really sore,” Politz said after his big night. “Coach just had us all fired up. Gunner (Majer) had a great game. Dave Johnson was an animal. We wore them down and everyone played great.” The teams combined for 777 yards of offense and 10 touchdowns. The Hawkeyes dominated the stat sheet, with 19 first downs. Hanover Area also enjoyed the lead for much of the first half behind the running of Parrish Bennett. The junior opened the scoring on a 2-yard run and finished the first half with 122 yards on the ground. Bennett finished with 292 total yards. Northwest quarterback Majer ran often from spread formations while scoring two touchdowns in the first half. His strike to Jeremy Rittenhouse with 62 seconds left in the half gave Northwest its first lead, 21-14. “Gunner is coming into his own,” Northwest coach Carl Majer said. “We changed up our offense a little and it’s working. And the defense is starting to play better.” Hanover Area was limited to 171 yards in the middle two quarters,

but had drives of 6, 7, 9 and 13 plays all come up empty. One featured Politz’s interception in the end zone, which he returned 16 yards. Politz was both punishing and brilliant. His 9-yard scoring run in the third quarter left three Hawkeyes slow to regain their feet after he bowled over them. In the fourth quarter, he took a line-drive kickoff up the right sideline unmolested for a 78-yard score that answered a Hawkeyes TD 13 seconds earlier. Joe Ksiazkiewicz found Geno Suda for two scores – 19 and 18 yards – in the fourth quarter. The first was answered by the kickoff return, putting Northwest ahead 34-20. A minute after the second connection between Ksiazkiewicz and Suda, Politz took a handoff up the middle, spun off the pile at the line of scrimmage, broke a tackle on the left corner of the line and, 35 yards later, slipped another tackler on his way to a 52-yard run to put the game away. “I don’t know what happened,” Politz said of the run. “I’ll have to watch the film to see what I did. The line was there for me all night, though.”

Bologna boss ‘confident’ Kobe’s coming The Associated Press

ROME — The president of Virtus Bologna is optimistic Kobe Bryant will sign with the Italian club during the NBA lockout despite scheduling problems posed by other teams. Claudio Sabatini said on Friday that Bryant’s agent Rob Pelinka agreed to an arrangement for 35 to 40 days worth more than $3 million — for about 10 games. “We’re very confident the deal can be completed,” Sabatini said. “We’re prepared to make a big investment.” Sabatini said a Bologna-based

food company is prepared to provide the cash. “Kobe and his agent have been very professional throughout the dealings and it’s been a pleasure to work with them,” Sabatini said. “I have a huge amount of respect for Kobe not just as a player, but also as a person.” Bologna has requested to play five of its opening 10 games at home, but a few other teams don’t want to change their schedules to accommodate the Los Angeles Lakers’ star.

Knights strike quickly in win Lake-Lehman piles up five touchdowns in second quarter en route to rout. By JOHN ERZAR jerzar@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – As badly as the second quarter was going for Meyers on Friday night, the worst was yet to come. And it happened in a15-second span of the final minute of the first half. Lake-Lehman scored two quick touchdowns to go with three others in the quarter, taking control for a 42-14 Wyoming Valley Conference Division 2A-A victory. “It was just mistakes,” said Meyers first-year coach Corry Hanson, whose team fell to 1-4.

“At times, we show signs of being a good team. And at times, we show signs of being a bad team. In the second quarter, we were a bad team.” Meyers took a 7-0 lead into the second quarter behind a 29yard touchdown pass from Fabian Smith to Tyriek Steward. Then things unraveled. Lehman quarterback Jared Novitski rushed for a careerhigh 171 yards, with many of them coming in the second quarter. He had scoring runs of 23, 45 and 21 yards as Lehman (2-3) took a 21-7 lead with 3:02 left until halftime. After Novitski’s last run, a Meyers drive stalled at the Lehman 16-yard line. Two plays later, Novitski hit Nick Shelley for a 73yard touchdown pass at 0:46 of the second. Meyers fumbled on

its first play from scrimmage following the kickoff and Lehman scored again, this time on a 14yard run by Shelley at 0:31. “We put in a different scheme in this week offensively,” Lehman coach Jerry Gilsky said. “We’re trying to free up Shelley as much as we can because everybody is keying on (him). We got to get Jared into our running game along with Dusty (Jones) and our whole core of guys.” Meyers moved within 35-14 early in the third quarter as running back Shacore Proctor sifted through a group of players for a 49-yard TD run. The Mohawks then recovered a short kickoff, but couldn’t move the ball. Shelley capped the scoring with a 4-yard run on the first play of the fourth quarter.

SELINSGROVE VS. BERWICK

Berwick bounces back in a huge way in victory Bulldogs use the running of Freeman to post shutout of rival Selinsgrove. By JIMMY FISHER For the Times Leader

BERWICK – After two straight losses, the Berwick Bulldogs bounced back big with a 45-0 win over the Selinsgrove Seals (1-4) on Friday night in a non-conference football game. Both sides of the ball flourished for the Bulldogs (2-3) as the offense scored touchdowns on all four of its first half possessions, and the defense held the Seals (1-4) to three first downs. “I’m very happy with the way we played,” said Berwick coach

Gary Campbell. “Defensively, they’re a very, very good football team so I’m happy with the way our offense played, and our defensive did a good job against them.” It was a ground-and-pound game for the Bulldogs as senior running back Jeremy Freeman rushed for151yards on16 carries, including a 73-yard touchdown run coming out of the gate in the second half. “All I have to say is our line, they blocked that so well,” said Freeman. “I don’t think I got touched.” Senior quarterback Jared Pierce connected with four different receivers, throwing for two touchdown passes in the first half, including a 10-yard fade to

junior wide receiver Jake Pecorelli. Pierce finished 11-of-15 for 132 yards and two touchdowns passing, and had 11 carries for 37 yards and two touchdowns. “It just felt really good being back on top again.” aaid Pierce. “We worked hard today. The line blocked good, and everybody played good today.” Berwick senior kicker Alex Oliver broke the Berwick Bulldogs school record for longest field goal kick with a 45-yarder at the end of the third quarter, beating his own personal best from last season, a 42-yarder. The Bulldogs go on the road to face the Tunkhannock Tigers next Friday night.

A bruising day for Day WBS winger scored a goal and engaged in a fight during Friday’s win.

By TOM VENESKY tvenesky@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE TWP. – Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins winger Brian Day’s performance in Friday’s preseason matchup against the Hershey Bears was similar to the start of his pro career last season. After completing his career at Colgate University, Day scored a goal and an assist during his first two games with Bridgeport in the AHL and added a fight along the way. On Friday, Day registered a goal and a fight and fell an assist short of completing the Gordie Howe hat trick as the Penguins defeated the Bears 5-2. When the final whistle blew Day had a goal and 11 penalty minutes. Not a bad way to get noticed when you’re trying to make the team. “That’s my game – high intensity, go to the net, score goals, bang bodies or play defensively. I try to bring it all,”

Day said. “You have to get noticed every shift.” Day’s goal came in the second period when he took a pass from Keven Veilleux and slid it underneath Hershey netminder Dany Sabourin who was diving across the crease. Minutes later he played the role of pest, goading Bear’s defenseman and former Penguin Danny Richmond into a double minor for roughing. And just after that penalty expired, Day answered the call by fighting Andrew Carroll behind the Penguins net. “I definitely have to work on my fighting, but I’m not afraid to fight,” he said. “I’m not afraid to be physical and bang with the big guys.” Day proved during his four seasons with Colgate that he was capable of playing physical while providing a scoring touch. He finished his career with 54 goals and 11 points in 149 games. He also topped 50 penalty minutes twice. Day, who was drafted by the New York Islanders in the sixth round in 2006, continued his impressive showing during a 10-game stint with Bridgeport at the end of last season, post-

ing five points (two goals, three assists) and seven penalty minutes. “You have to do something to make a statement as to why you should be here, and you can see some of the attributes (Day) has,” said Penguins coach John Hynes. “He’s strong on his skates, good in puck battles and on the forecheck. His play was strong and he was pretty tenacious.” NOTES •Aside from Day’s goal, Geoff Walker, Brandon DeFazio, Brian Gibbons and Bryan Lerg also scored for the Penguins. Walker also had a three-point night adding two assists. •Dropping the gloves for the Penguins were Ryan Schnell (against Phil Oreskovic and Carroll), Day (Carroll) and Devin DiDiomete (Carroll). •Veilleux left the game in the second period and didn’t return. Hynes said he will be evaluated and he should know more today. •The Penguins outshot the Bears 41-16. Brad Thiessen made 15 saves on the night. •The Penguins travel to Hershey for a rematch tonight at 7 p.m.

Brian Campbell and Chad Hoffman both had a pair of touchdowns for Hazleton Area. “He’s another back back there,” Drumheller said of Hoffman. “I can use him at tailback, fullback, he’s just a tough, tough kid and he refuses to go down.” Campbell put the Cougars on the board when he broke loose of Patriot defenders for a 12-yard touchdown. The PAT was missed wide left and the Cougars lead was 6-0 with 2:20 remaining in the opening quarter. “The offensive line and the fullbacks just opened up holes for us,” Drumheller said. “They were so unselfish and they just want to win.” The Cougars extended their lead to 13-0 with 8:31 remaining in the first half. Penalties backed Hazleton back to their own 21, but that didn’t matter as Hoffman broke loose for a 60 yard touchdown. The Patriots finally found the end zone with 5:12 remaining in the first half.

CARDINALS VS. PHILLIES

First of four aces ready to deal Halladay takes the hill as Phils open series versus Cardinals tonight.

By PAUL SOKOLOSKI psokoloski@timesleader.com

PHILADELPHIA - With his best poker face, Roy Halladay squinted hard, his face trying to mask the answer everyone’s waiting to know. Can a hand full of aces trump a bunch of wild Cards? We’ll find out beginning at 5:07 p.m. when the pitching-rich Philadelphia Phillies try to fold the upset hopes of the St. Louis Cardinals in the opener of a best-of-five National League Division Series at Citizens Bank Park. "I feel like we have everything we need," Halladay said. So does everyone else. With baseball’s best record at 102-60 and Halladay leading a starting pitching staff full of stal-

warts, the Phillies are the popular pick to win the World Series. But those dreams could get picked apart by a red-hot St. Louis team that came from nowhere to make up 81/2 games since Sept. 6 and snatch the National League wild card spot from the Atlanta Braves. The Cardinals beat out the Braves for that final playoff berth on the regular season’s final day by winning seven of their final 10 games - a stretch that started when they took three of four games in Philadelphia two weeks ago. St. Louis brings the National League’s best batting average at .273 into the series, and its 762 runs this season also led the league. "They’ve had a good offensive year, and they’ve had a big year," Phillies manager Charlie Manuel said. What’s more, Cardinals big boppers Albert Pujols, Lance Berkman and Yadier Molina all

have plenty of postseason experience and are all carrying eye-popping lifetime playoff batting averages above .314. And St. Louis won six of nine games between the two teams in the regular season, sweeping two games from the Phillies before winning three of four in Philadelphia. The Phillies took two out of three from the Cards in the first series in St. Louis. "We don’t think the season series has a whole lot to do with a

playoff series," Cardinals manager Tony LaRussa said. "I just think the confidence we have is from the club really enjoying competing." That’s Philadelphia’s game. The Phillies have been to the last three National League Championship Series’ - winning the 2008 World Series and the 2009 National League pennant with basically the same group of guys. But adding Halladay (19-6, 2.35 ERA) and Roy Oswalt, re-adding Cliff Lee (17-8, 2.40 ERA), and pairing them with rejuvenated Cole Hamels (14-9, 2.79 ERA) over the last two seasons gave the Phillies a dominant rotation other teams just can’t match. Halladay will get the ball for Game 1 of the NLDS, and the last time he opened the playoffs, he threw the second postseason nohitter in baseball history against the Cincinnati Reds last season in his first-ever postseason start. "I think the big thing that stood

out to me the most was once the game started, how normal it was," Halladay said. "It wasn’t this great big animal that everybody talks about." By keeping cool, the Phillies have become a National League beast. With Ryan Howard belting 33 homers and driving home 116 runs, Raul Ibanez adding 20 homers and Hunter Pence pelting 11 homers and hitting .324 in 54 games after entering Philadel-

phia’s lineup after midseason trade, the Phillies have enough punch. They just hope it’s enough to punch their ticket to another World Series. "The only thing you focus on is what’s in between those two white lines," Howard said, downplaying talk that it’s win the World Series or bust for the Phillies. Still, the Phillies are expecting to walk away holding the winning cards.

Terry Francona met with Red Sox management on Friday and the sides parted ways.

Francona, Sox brass part ways The Associated Press

BOSTON — The Terry Francona era is over in Boston. The manager who led the Red Sox to their first World Series championship in 86 years is out after one of the worst months in club history. In a joint statement released on Friday, the Red Sox announced they will not pick up the option on Francona’s contract for a ninth year in the wake of the team’s September collapse in which they blew a nine-game lead in the AL wild-card race. Owners John Henry, Tom Werner, and Larry Lucchino acknowledged a change was needed and thanked Francona, who led the franchise to titles in 2004 and 2007. But the statement also mentioned that Francona was ready to head in a different direction. “Tito said that after eight years here he was frustrated by his difficulty making an impact with the players, that a different voice was needed, and that it was time for him to move on,” the statement said. “After taking time to reflect on Tito’s sentiments, we agreed that it was best for the Red Sox not to exercise the option years on his contract.” The press release highlighted a whirlwind day at Fenway Park that saw all of the principal parties shuttle in and out of the facility. Francona was in the building three different times. Later, Henry was taken to Massachusetts General Hospital to be examined after a minor incident on his yacht, the Red Sox said. WBZ radio reported that he walked off his boat wearing a neck brace. Boston missed the playoffs despite its nine-game lead with 24 left on Sept. 4. It went 6-18 after that, ending with a 4-3 loss Wednesday night in Baltimore amid reports of conditioning and clubhouse problems. The Red Sox did not win consecutive games all month.

Detroit’s Delmon Young lifted a Sabathia fastball the opposite way and over Nick Swisher’s glove and the right field wall for a solo home run. It was the only blip on the radar for Sabathia, who struck out four batters during the GAME 1 first two inDETROIT AT NEW nings.

Verlander didn’t wait at all when it came to making mistakes. He threw a slider in the dirt that Yankees leadoff man Derek Jeter missed for strike three, only Jeter reached first base when the ball skidded away for a wild pitch. Along with it went Verlander’s expected mastery of the night. The Detroit ace proceeded to walk Curtis Granderson and Mark Teixeira later in the inning, and Jeter wound up scoring on a groundout to tie the game at 1-1. It was a sloppy start for a couple of guys accustomed to pitching clean games. "Two premier pitchers on a big stage," Tigers manager Jim Leyland called them before the game.

Maybe both of them tried to be bigger than the moment. Verlander had the biggest season of any pitcher in baseball. His 24-5 record and 2.40 ERA put Verlander in serious consideration for a most valuable player award. And if those numbers aren’t intimidating enough, Verlander took a 12-game winning streak into the playoffs and hadn’t lost a decision since July 15.

"Looking back at the season," Verlander said before his Game 1 start, "I feel I’ve done a pretty good job of getting myself where I need to get to when things go awry." They went haywire on him pretty quickly Friday. At least Sabathia, who went 19-8 as the biggest winner for the Yankees this year, was able to get back on track fast. He retired the next four hitters after being

shocked by Young’s homer, including a couple of strikeouts to end the second inning. "That lineup, they have a great lineup," Sabathia said of the Tigers. "It’s really myself against the Tigers." Both premier pitchers insisted they didn’t see the showdown as him against the other guy on the mound. "Do I want to be better than him? Absolutely," Verlander said

strikes and getting out of the innings as fast as possible,” he said. Kelly Shoppach homered twice and drove in five runs, Johnny Damon also homered and Tampa Bay dominated the whole way behind Moore. Moore began this best-of-five matchup by striking out six and walking two against the AL’s tophitting team. The Rays played for the first time since their dramatic rally Wednesday night on the final day of the regular season. Since Tampa Bay needed every out simply to overcome Boston’s nine-game lead in the last 31⁄2 weeks to win the wild card, Maddon had to focus on getting this far over trying to set up his pitching rotation. When Maddon had to pick a rested starter for Game 1 of the AL division series rematch, he had no qualms of going with the lefty who made his first start last week at Yankee Stadium and struck out 11 in five scoreless innings. No pitcher had ever started a postseason opener with only one previous career start until the seemingly unfazed Moore took the mound at Rangers Ballpark less than 22 hours after being told he was pitching in the playoffs less than three months after pitching in the Futures game during the All-Star break.

Cooper Stone, 6, talks with Texas Rangers left fielder Josh Hamilton (32) before Stone throws out the ceremonial first pitch at Game 1 of the ALDS against the Tampa Bay Rays Friday.

Rookie Brandon Gomes and Wade Davis both pitched a hitless inning in relief to complete the first shutout in Rays postseason history. It was a day of memorable pitching in Texas, where 6-yearold Cooper Stone tossed a ceremonial first pitch to Josh Hamilton and then shared two hugs with his favorite player. This was Cooper’s first game at Rangers Ballpark since July 7, when his firefighter father fell to his death trying to catch a ball

thrown to him by Hamilton. Cooper went to the mound Friday with his widowed mother, Jenny, and Rangers president Nolan Ryan, the Hall of Fame pitcher. Game 2 is Saturday night. James Shields will start for the Rays against Derek Holland. Moore, who had thrown only 9 1-3 innings in the majors before this start, was smiling by the late innings. He was greeted by hugs and high-fives in the Rays dugout after he had thrown his last pitch

— he threw 98 in all, 62 for strikes. “I know everybody’s name in that lineup. I never faced them before, just kind of one of those things I didn’t want to be out of it before I was in it,” Moore said. “I tried to be as normal, as normal and as calm as possible. And it was just a matter of getting comfortable, and there on it was throwing strikes.” Having the youngster on the mound led to another important decision for Maddon, who opted

of Sabathia. "Do I want to win? Yes. How do I do that? For me, personally, it’s not worry about him. It’s to worry about the batters in the Yankees lineup." Those batters had little reason to worry about playing through a pitchers’ duel, at least not out of the gates. Sometimes with these grand openings you get to watch a smash hit. Sometimes, the hype just gets smashed. to go with the light-hitting Shoppach behind the plate. The catcher from nearby Fort Worth homered twice off Rangers ace left-hander C.J. Wilson and matched a Rays postseason record with five RBIs. Texas and Tampa Bay have picked up where they left off last postseason, when the visiting team won every game in their five-game series. That’s the only time that has ever happened in the majors. The Rangers won that series, helped by Cliff Lee, and then went on to beat the Yankees in the AL championship before losing to San Francisco in five games in the World Series. Texas is only 3-9 in postseason games at Rangers Ballpark, where they had never won a playoff game until last year. After Wilson hit Ben Zobrist with a pitch in the second, Damon followed with a two-run homer to right that put the Rays ahead to stay. What looked like a high popup by Damon just kept carrying and hit the front-row rail just beyond the eight-foot wall. “Johnny hitting that home run early kind of gave us all a chance to just breathe,” Shoppach said. Shoppach, a .176 hitter in the regular season, followed with a single and later scored on a hit by Matt Joyce for a 3-0 lead. An inning later, Shoppach hit a 410foot homer to straightaway center. More than enough for Moore.

Colonels hoping to avoid upset to winless FDU By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

Wilkes picked up its first win of the 2011 season one week ago after a defeat of previously unbeaten Widener at home. Now, the Colonels travel to New Jersey to face winless FDUFlorham, possibly the weakest team in the MAC. In the 1 p.m. game today, Wilkes (1-2 overall, 1-1 MAC) sees a Devils squad which has struggled mightily on defense giving up 51.3 points per game and 491 yards per game. That seems to works perfect for a Wilkes team that has scored 30.33 points per game and averaged 463.33 total yards a game in

its first three contests. But don’t tell Colonels coach Frank Sheptock that this game will be a cakewalk for his team. Despite winning 25 out of 27 games against the Devils (0-3, 0-1), the teams have been engaged in close games the last three years with the outcomes being decided by a total of16 points. And over the last few years, FDU has been prone to pull an upset especially when playing at home. Plus, although the Colonels won last week, they still gave up 441 total yards and 28 points. That after allowing 65 points and nearly 700 yards in a loss to on the road Albright two weeks ago. Sheptock doesn’t want his

team to take the Devils lightly. “Last week, the synergy of the team is that it’s all about Wilkes,” the coach said. “If we can keep that synergy and continue to grow I think we have a chance to get better and if we don’t, any

team in this league is capable of doing to us what Albright did to us because it’s the mental part of the game.” The defense may be worrisome for Wilkes, but the offense has been clicking led by quarterback Alex George, who has amassed a team-high 228 rushing yards and three running scores. He’s also thrown for 628 yards and seven TDs. Last week, he piled up five total scores and was named MAC Offensive Player of the Week. Coming up: The Colonels return home next week to host perennial MAC power Delaware Valley.

Monarchs looking for consistency vs. Pride By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

So far this season for King’s College has been filled with inconsistencies. In the opening week, the Monarchs played well but the offense was unstable in a loss to William Paterson. The next game saw the team erupt offensively in a rout of Stevenson College when it scored 51 points. Then last week versus Albright the Monarchs’ defense fell apart giving up 57 in a loss to powerful Albright and the team also committed 11 penalties for 105 yards.

He was followed by Will Fulton’s 74, a 77 from Matt Slavoski. A 78 by Chase Makowski rounded out Holy Redeemer’s scorers. “It’s not that we’re that much better (than Pittston Area) we’re just a little deeper,” Redeemer coach Art Brunn Jr. said. “I have to

Widener, it will try to click on all phases of the game. “It’s mental, but it’s also experience and confidence,” King’s coach Jeff Knarr said. “A lot of times when a kid makes a penalty or a mistake, he’s not really confident in what he’s doing so they panic and rush things and don’t stay with the technique. They practice well so they just have to take that to the field when they play. The more they play, hopefully the less of that will occur.” The Pride (3-1, 1-1) were just handed their first loss of the season last week against Wilkes, but they’re still averaging 36.5 points per game. If not for starting quar-

terback Chris Haupt being held out a few series against Wilkes, Widener may be unbeaten. According to Knarr, Haupt – who was drafted by the Florida Marlins in 2005 and played in the organization’s minor leagues for

The Royals will face the Lackawanna League champion. As of Friday, the conference from up north was concluding its quarterfinals. Now, the Royals will try to snap a 10-year district title drought by the WVC as they will attempt to become the first WVC team to win a district title since Wyoming Sem-

inary in 2000. Last year, Redeemer dropped a close match by just four strokes to Scranton Prep at Paupack Hills Golf Club. Following Matthews for the Patriots was Ryan Tracy and Matt Carroll who fired 79s and C.J. Lynch’s 82. “I know my team’s disappointed but you have days like that,” Matthews noted. “It wasn’t as bad as we played on Monday, but we didn’t play our best.” Dallas placed third in the team race scoring 321, while Valley West’s Chris McCue finished third to Matthews and Medico carding a 73. The Spartans finished four strokes behind Dallas with a 325.

offenses, the Lions must adapt to Indiana’s no-huddle spread offense that will try and tire out a Penn State defense that’s already down two starters -Michael Mauti and D’Anton Lynn -- because of injuries. “You definitely need to prepare for it,” said linebacker Nate Stupar, who will be filling in for Mauti the rest of the season. “You know they’re gonna spread you out. A lot of bubble (screens), a lot of outside runs. And that’s hard when they’re in no-huddle because you’re running to the outside every play.” A pass-heavy scheme is nothing new for Indiana. In the past few seasons with Bill Lynch as coach, the Hoosiers threw the ball as much as anyone in the country with Ben Chappell at quarterback. Wilson’s offense is not the same thing. At Miami (Ohio) and Northwestern in the 90s, Wilson helped put together a spread offense with zone-read options mixed in. Wilson adapted when he had a different level of talent to work with in 2001, when he left Northwestern to take the offensive coordinator job at Oklahoma. He remained there until this past summer when he was lured away by Indiana to take his first head coaching job. “It’s a different offensive set this year,” defensive line coach Larry Johnson said this week on the team’s radio show. “Coach Wilson came in from Oklahoma, and what he brought was a fast-paced game. They’re playing a spread game, but a fast-paced spread game. “Our concern is our ability to substitute. We’ve got to get them off the field, get threeand-outs as much as possible.” Penn State uses plenty of substitutions throughout a game, particularly up front on Johnson’s defensive line. That won’t be an option if the Hoo-

siers are able to get rolling. “The biggest challenge for us is the conditioning part of it,” Penn State safety Nick Sukay said. “When they get in that no-huddle, there’s not as much time to rest. Usually you have 30 to 45 seconds between plays, but when they go nohuddle, you might only have 15, 20 seconds. “It’s just a faster pace you have to get used to, so definitely conditioning would be the biggest difference.” Of course there’s a downside to all of this hurrying for the Hoosiers, who are, after all, just 1-3 on the season. Namely that Indiana’s players end up tiring as well. The team’s personnel and conditioning will take a bit to catch up with Wilson’s system. The Hoosiers faltered late in the game in losses to Ball State and Virginia to open the season. Things finally turned around in that regard last week against an 0-3 North Texas team, as Indiana scored three fourth-quarter touchdowns. Problem was, North Texas had entered the final frame up 24-0 and held on for the win. Not exactly the start Wilson was looking for in his head coaching debut. But optimism for the future already blooms in Bloomington. Wilson has secured a verbal commitment from one of the country’s top high school quarterbacks in Gunner Kiel. Wilson’s impact has already shown itself. So despite having never lost to the Hoosiers, Penn State is not taking Wilson and his team lightly. “He’s a good coach … he took a look at his personnel and said these are the things that we can do well,” Penn State’s Joe Paterno said. “(He) looked at his squad and said, ‘Hey, I wish we could do what we did at Oklahoma in this area, but we’ve gotta improvise a little bit. We’ve gotta change some things. We’ve gotta do what our players can do, not what Oklahoma players can do.’ “He’s a very impressive person. And I’m sure he’ll do a good job.”

Air Products in Saudi deal

Industrial gas maker Air Products will buy a 25 percent ownership stake in privately owned Saudi company that makes gases and equipment. Terms of the deal were not released. The Saudi company, called Abdullah Hashim Industrial Gases & Equipment Co. Ltd., is the largest private industrial gas company in Saudi Arabia. Air Products employs about 200 at a plant in Hanover Township. Spokesman George Noon said the acquisition would have no effect on that facility.

Solar loans approved

Energy Secretary Steven Chu says the department has completed a $1.5 billion loan guarantee to Arizona-based First Solar Inc. for a 550-megawatt solar farm on federal land in Southern California and $646 million to Exelon Corp. for a 230-megawatt solar plant near Los Angeles. A third project, worth $1.4 billion, will support installation of about 750 solar rooftop panels in 28 states. The loans were approved under the same program that paid for a $528 million loan to Solyndra Inc., a nowbankrupt solar panel maker that has become a symbol for critics of the Obama administration’s green energy program.

WEST PITTSTON – Sean Silfee was looking for answers Friday when he walked into Agolino’s Restaurant. Silfee, the owner of Not Just Pizza on River Road in Plains Township, has been in business for five years. His building was ravaged by flood waters last month, and he didn’t have flood insurance. “Now we have nothing,” he told U.S. Sen. Bob Casey. “I don’t know where to go. I don’t know what to do.” Casey was at Agolino’s to meet with small-business own-

ers and hear their “horror stories.” He said visiting the flooded areas gave him a clearer perCasey spective on the need for federal aid for the victims. “The extent of the damage at Agolino’s was a stark reminder that recovering from the flood will not be easy, but there are steps we can take to reduce the burden on businesses and residents who are working tirelessly to rebuild after this disaster,” he said.

Casey is pushing the U.S. Small Business Administration to lower interest rates on disaster relief loans to help businesses such as Agolino’s reopen, rehire and recover lost revenue. Joe Agolino, owner of the restaurant, greeted Casey at the door and showed him around the gutted interior, noting all the work that is being done and describing how the flood waters overturned large coolers and heavy kitchen equipment. “I think I sat at a table in that corner the last time I had lunch here,” Casey told Agolino. The corner spot is now without walls as workers put the restau-

possible. Asked what the state is doing to help victims, Mundy said, “Shamefully, much too little.” Jim Ide, owner of Birchwood Landscaping in Plains Township, said he needs help soon or he might not be able to come back, leaving 10 people out of work. “I’ve applied to FEMA,” Ide said. “I guess I’ll have to buy something twice that I already own.” West Pittston Mayor Tony Denisco and council President Brian Thornton told of infrastructure problems due to flood mud clogging sewer lines.

Mixing and matching

By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

group of local business owners, professionals and job seekers is blurring the lines between virtual and real-world networking. The group, NEPA Networkers, formed on the business-oriented social-networking website LinkedIn, and now hosts quarterly mixers for members. NEPA Networkers is the brainchild of recruitment agency owner Bob Courtright. It started as an online group in 2009 and now has 1,600 registered members. “After three months or four months someone signed up for it and they said, ‘Well, when do you meet?’ ” Courtright said. “And I thought, meeting, isn’t that a novel idea.” The group hosted its first in-person meet-and-greet in April 2009 and has held them quarterly since. The last meeting in

July attracted more than 100 attendees from Luzerne and Lackawanna counties. Courtright, owner of Courtright and Associates in Scranton, said the group attracts a diverse array of members, including those actively seeking jobs, companies looking to hire and individuals and companies looking to meet other professionals. “The success can be as simple as I met someone at a company I didn’t even know exists,” Courtright said. “Ultimately, if that leads to that person getting a job, that’s the ultimate goal of the group.” Pat Kobela, co-owner of KK Media Partners of Mountain Top, joined NEPA Networkers when it was still only a virtual group, but she has embraced the realworld mixers for the opportunity to meet face-to-face with potential clients. Her company can provide a variety of advertising, marketing and website design, and management services, and it

isn’t easy to explain all she can do for a client in an email of LinkedIn post. The mixers give her an opportunity to connect with clients who may never have sought out her services, she said. “We can pass on our message, because we are an ad agency in some cases and in some cases we’re not,” Kobela said. “It gives us a chance to let people know who we are what we do, because it’s not really cut and dry.” As the group has grown and added subgroups for executives and others, Courtright said the mixers have grown more involved. Last time he invited TMG Health, a company looking to hire employees in the Scranton area, to speak. But he said he and other group leaders have also strived to keep the group focus on business. “We stay true to our mission,” Courtright said. “When we do have a presentation, it is about networking as it relates to jobs.”

Consumer spending slows as wages fall in August By ALEX KOWALSKI and BOB WILLIS Bloomberg News

WASHINGTON -- Consumer spending slowed in August as incomes dropped for the first time in almost two years, showing scarce jobs are preventing the U.S. economy from gaining ground. Purchases rose 0.2 percent after a 0.7 percent increase the prior month, and earnings decreased 0.1percent, according to Commerce Department figures Friday

in Washington. Other reports indicated business activity unexpectedly accelerated this month, while consumer sentiment held near an almost three-year low. Little hiring, stagnant wages and a plunge in stocks have shaken confidence in the recovery that began two years ago, which may hurt sales at retailers such as BestBuyandTarget.Thesputteringeconomy has prompted policy makers from President Barack Obama to the Federal

Reserve to take additional action in a bid to prevent another recession. AlsoFriday,theThomsonReuters/University of Michigan final index of consumer sentiment climbed to 59.4 this month from 55.7 in August that was the lowest since November 2008. Income dropped for the first time since October 2009. Wages and salaries dropped 0.2 percent last month, the first decrease since November.

Wall Street protest in 2nd week By TINA SUSMAN Los Angles Times

NEW YORK — Michael Moore and Susan Sarandon have dropped in. A seasoned diplomat dispenses free advice. Supporters send everything from boxes of food and clothes to Whole Foods gift cards. They even have their own app, for the legions of fans following them on iPhones and Androids. Nearly two weeks into a sit-in at a park in Manhattan’s financial district, the “leaderless resistance movement” calling itself Occupy Wall Street is at a crossroads. The number of protesters on scene so far tops out at a few hundred. But the traction they have gained from run-ins with police, a live feed from their encampment and celebrity visits is upping expectations. How about some specific demands, a long-term strategy, maybe even ... office space? So far the group has none of those. “At a certain point, there’s a valid criticism in people asking, ‘What are you doing here?’ ” said protester Chris Biemer, 23. The answer isn’t entirely clear as the demonstration wraps up its second week. The group sees itself as anti-greed, but also weighs in on many social issues. The protest, which evolved from a network of individuals and groups galvanized by the demonstrations in Egypt last winter, has moved far beyond what it was on Sept. 17, when police barricaded the streets outside the Stock Exchange to prevent a march there to protest corporate greed. A map in Zuccotti Park pinpoints scores of other cities with Occupy Wall Street events either under way or planned, including a sit-in planned for Washington on Oct. 6.

Visa, MasterCard fee hike may raise ‘mom and pop’ ire with swipe fees By DAKIN CAMPBELL AND DONAL GRIFFIN Bloomberg News

SAN FRANCISCO -- Visa and MasterCard, the world’s biggest payments networks, may face a merchant backlash by raising debit-card swipe fees on the smallest purchases to the maximum allowed under rules that took effect today. MasterCard will impose the highest fees allowed on all debit transactions,

including so-called small-ticket purchases, for cards issued by the biggest U.S. banks, said a person with direct knowledge of the matter. Visa will do the same, Thomas McCrohan, an analyst at Janney Montgomery Scott, wrote in a Sept. 21 note, without saying how he got the information. The networks, which pass the fees to lenders such as JPMorgan Chase and Citi-

group, now charge retailers 1.55 percent of the purchase price plus 4 cents for small-ticket transactions of less than $15. That comes to about 7 cents for a $2 cup of coffee. The cost to merchants for that item would more than triple as card companies impose the maximum fee of 21 cents, plus 5 basis points of the total and a conditional 1 cent for fraud-prevention, the most allowed under rules cre-

ated by the Federal Reserve. . “The mom-and-pop coffee shop that processes lots of $3 transactions is really going to get hurt by this,” said Brian Dodge, a spokesman for the Retail Industry Leaders Association, a trade group that represents the biggest U.S. merchants, including Wal-Mart Stores, Target and Home Depot. The new fee structure won’t

apply to cards issued by banks and credit unions with less than $10 billion in assets, which are exempt from the law, a provision of the Dodd-Frank Act. Retailers and financial firms spent about $30 million and deployed more than 500 lobbyists in the battle to influence the legislation and rule-making, people briefed with the expenditures said in June.

Oh well, what's a weatherman to do but keep a low proﬁle these days with having everyone so fed up with all the rain. And now that the weekend has arrived with more rain, I might as well go stick my head in the sand until the sun returns. Unfortunately, there's just no way to stop another zone of low pressure from forming close by this weekend, keeping our skies cloudy while producing more rain. But this storm will evolve so that rainfall here will not be as excessive and widespread as before and not likely to bring additional flooding. Heck, the sun might even appear for a time on Sunday.

SANDRA SNYDER WALL TO WALL

Dear appraiser: Please love this taxing house Oh how you sparkle, and oh how you shine … othing like having George Strait sing to you while you’re speedcleaning. Forget that he was crooning of the one who got away, and the love of my life at the moment was merely a house awaiting an evaluation. I cranked up the music to help me get moving. The task? Making house look as good as possible as quickly as possible. Appraisers — likely on purpose — don’t give you much notice. I think my date with destiny went well, though the official verdict has not, as of this writing, come in. OK, “destiny” might overstate matters a bit. Truth is my life wasn’t about to change all that much one way or the other whether the man with the camera and clipboard and binder full of figures was impressed by my place or not. I wasn’t looking to sell it to him, after all, because I don’t plan on going anywhere anytime soon. All I needed was to satisfy him, statistically and otherwise, that this dwelling place was worth more than I paid for it — sure, there was a magic number — and to put that in writing and take it to the bank. I already had and still have a mortgage, of course; all I was looking for was a better one. (The silver lining in this more than partly cloudy economy is some eye-poppingly low long-term interest rates.) What do you have to lose? Well, a couple of hundred dollars payable to the one who’ll be summoned to stand in judgment, sure, so that’s why you should only do this — refinance — if you’re reasonably confident your house will make the grade and more or less recoup that money. If you are, the procedure will go something like this: Your lender will contact the appraiser, who will contact you, who will be asked if you’re free, say, now? Having been through this twice, I can tell you you might get an hour or two, or, with a good excuse, maybe a day, but it’s no use pushing for more time than that. No sense fighting a guy you want on your side. Don’t fuss about cleaning, you might be told, or even cutting the grass or putting the laundry away. An appraiser will not care a whit. He has bigger fish for which to fry you, so try to make sure there are cabinets in the kitchen and a tub in the bathroom, no gaping holes in the walls and that you have all the important things, like a furnace and electricity. And if he walks on the second floor he shouldn’t crash through to the first, but you probably knew that. The point is, as far as trying to impress him by fondant-icing the cake? Don’t. I knew this. All of it. But did it stop me from going on a straightening and scrubbing tear with a few hours to spare? Of course not. I will not steam-clean this rug, again, for this appraiser. I will not reorganize this entire kitchen for this appraiser. I will not strip the beds and start them all over for this appraiser. Oh, who am I kidding? It’s who I am. It’s what I do. For everyone, not just appraisers. It’s a sickness, this pressing, time-consuming, life-force-sucking need to make things look nice, smell nice and even sound nice for anyone who crosses my threshold. Cue the music again. Only trouble is, gee whiz … I’m (cleaning) my life away. By the time Room No. 7 sparkles and shines, Room No. 1 is shabby again. What a vicious and cruel cycle, this home sweet home. In the words of Tim McGraw, life is better spent skydiving. Or Rocky Mountain climbing. Going 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fu Man Chu. Living deeper and speaking sweeter, too, of course. I’ll have to try that, all of it. As soon as the man with the clipboard gets back to me.

he deck has gone high tech. • Wood decks are rapidly being replaced by plastic, aluminum and other man-made decking materials, which are prized for their easy maintenance. Builders are making decks into showpieces, with multiple levels, custom railing and other perks. Even wood is getting an upgrade, with some buyers seeking out rare, tropical hardwoods for their durability.

Blik’s co-founder lives with his own work By LISA BOONE Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — The walls of Scott Flora’s sunny Venice, Calif., cottage are lined with wall graphics, but the stickers are not merely decorative. They’re work. Flora uses the small house he shares with Susan Kaufman and daughter Aja as a veritable test kitchen — and photo studio — for the latest designs from Blik, the wall graphics company he cofounded in 2002. Flora and his staff of 10 routinely take designs into his home and sit with them. “We are constantly testing things, printing them, cutting them, coloring them, trying things in different colors,” Flora said while smoothing out a pixel from the enor-

mous pink “Heart Breakout” design in his dining room. The goal: to see “how they influence my mood, the environment and my own family.” With the enormous pink heart dominating one wall, Flora placed a small green robot low on an opposing wall. “It’s amazing how a simple piece, in the appropriate color and scale, can influence not only the wall but the whole room and your emotions when you enter a room,” he said. True to the Blik spirit of transitory decorating, Flora struggled to pinpoint his own aesthetic. “My design taste changes as often as trees sway,” said Flora, 44. Indeed, the home is a mix of vintage and new Midcentury designs, clean-lined

modern furnishings from Room & Board and Blu Dot, and original works by local artists. “I like things that are well-

crafted and well-made,” said Flora, who worked as an architect before starting Blik. “Room & Board is of value, and I don’t have to spend a lot

of money there. I love Vitra and Herman Miller when it makes sense for me.” See BLIK, Page 2C

Replacing a big oil tank in very close quarters Q: After regular service by my heating-oil provider, I was told our tank is showing some rust on the bottom and will need to be replaced. Aside from wishing to avoid such an expense, there also is a logistical concern. My 113-yearold home has a small stairwell with a landing-and-turn that is even more limited in size. I have no idea how they managed to get our old, 275-gallon tank down there. One contractor suggested replacing it with a smaller 130gallon tank, but even that may not fit. Another suggestion was to remove the old tank and convert to a gas-fired boiler, but despite potential long-term fuel savings, the upfront costs are too prohibitive. Is there another alternative? I have seen mention on the Internet of a bladder-type insert, but is that truly feasible? A: If I were you, I wouldn’t go for anything on the Internet I’ve never heard of before. My experience with bladder fuel tanks is my Prius, and chat sites are filled with stories about problems many owners are having with them. Although we’ve found out to our environmentally hazardous dismay that oil tanks should never be buried, there is the replacement issue for your verylarge-for-the-access storage tank. I’ve seen a “containment tub” advertised that protects oil tanks that are above ground but out of doors (probably because of problems such as yours). There must be a solution to this. Readers always have the opportunity to offer advice based on their experiences. ••• What breaks? From Consumer Reports, here are some thoughts on product longevity: Computers break — a lot. Around one in three laptops and desktops breaks by its fourth year. Many breakdowns are due to malicious software (malware) or hard-drive failure. Installing antivirus software is the best defense against malware. Minimize damage if your computer is dropped by always shutting

COOL DIGS

YOUR PLACE ALAN J. HEAVENS down the device before traveling even a short distance. Some technologies are finicky. Refrigerators with icemakers are twice as likely to break as those without. Blame the device’s complicated design and the extreme environment in which it must operate. Among laundry appliances, front-loading washers are more repair-prone than top-loaders. The large rubber gasket that forms a watertight seal around the door is the common culprit. Mold is another issue. Manufacturers recommend periodically cleaning the gasket with a bleach solution and keeping the door ajar after each use to allow ventilation. Extended warranties don’t deliver. Based on Consumer Reports’ survey, appliances usually don’t break during the extended-warranty period. They break within two to three years of purchase. Brand reliability varies by product. Manufacturers often have strengths and weakness in different product categories. GE, for example, makes very reliable cooking appliances, but its refrigerators with icemakers are repair-prone. John Deere’s lawn tractors are very reliable, but its self-propelled lawn mowers are significantly more repair-prone than other brands. And LG makes reliable plasma TVs and dryers, but less reliable side-by-side refrigerators. The 50 percent rule still stands. Consumer Reports recommends purchasing a replacement if the repair will cost more than half the price of the new product. Replacing electronics might be less costly than most people think because prices are steadily dropping in some categories. Major appliances, on the other hand, are getting more expensive and usually have long service lives, which is why Consumer Reports generally suggests holding on to them longer than electronics.

And Kaufman’s antique wood curio shelf? “There’s a narrative there,” Flora said of the piece, which stands apart from the other furnishings. “It’s something that has been in her family forever. I appreciate that there is a story behind it. That’s important.” Flora was drawn to Ven-

ice, where he has lived since 1999, because of its smalltown feel. “It’s a small oasis that sits on the edge of a town dominated by Hollywood,” he said. “It reminds me of where I grew up in Pennsylvania. I love the mix of hip and grungy, the variety and diversity of everyone. It’s a casual beach environment with a really strong appreciation for the arts.

Pressure-treated pine is the least expensive material, and costs as little as $10 per square foot including labor (or around $2 per square foot to buy and build yourself). Cedar and redwood are popular but more expensive options. At the top end are hardwoods like ipe, which is grown in South America and is closer to $30 per square foot. There are downsides to wood. It tends to change color, crack and absorb stains. It also requires more maintenance, including cleaning andstainingeveryyearortwo.And some hardwoods aren’t harvested sustainably. • Composite.

Composite looks a lot like real wood, but it’s less likely to rot or get infested with insects than real wood, and it’s less slippery. It’s also easier to maintain; it doesn’t need staining and it can be washed off occasionally with a deck cleaner. Because it contains up to 50 percent wood, composite is still more susceptible to stains and mildew

On the shelf Paint is one of the cheapest ways to transform a home, but using paint artfully can be a challenge. The folks at Better Homes and Gardens’ Do It Yourself magazine provide plenty of guidance in “Do It Yourself: 100+ Paint Projects.” The book provides ideas for painting a variety of surfaces, including furniture, fabrics, glass and ceramics — and, of course, walls.
