WEST PITTSTON – While the borough and the state Department of Labor and Industry sort out who’s right when it comes to a code enforcement dispute, the bor-

Phyllis Mundy regarding borough permit fees for inspections of repairs to flood damage has spiraled into a state order.

PLAINS TWP. – James Dwyer is flabbergasted that government officials who preach the need for job creation aren’t doing anything significant to help the area retain the 50 higher-than-average salaried jobs his company provides. Dwyer estimates his business, Ideal Sleeves International, off River Road near the village of

Plainsville, sustained $4.5 million in flood damage when the Susquehanna River crested at a historic 42.6 feet on Sept. 9. Federal and state officials say they’re working on legislation to help business like Dwyer’s, but he said it’s not coming fast enough. He has orders he can’t fill because a new multimillion-dollar offset printing press was damaged by 2 feet of flood water. “We print shrink sleeves, shrink bands and labels. Basically when you buy your energy shots or your beverages, it’s the label that’s shrunk onto the bottle,” Dwyer said on Thursday.

Americans, being out of work has become a semi-permanent condition. Nearly one-third of the unemployed — nearly 4.5 million people — have had no job for a year or more. That’s a record high. Many are older workers who have found it especially hard to find jobs. And economists say their prospects won’t brighten much even after the economy starts to

Republicans will top Democrats on ballot The move comes because Pennsylvania now has a Republican governor. By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

Republican candidates will be listed before Democrats on the Nov. 8 election ballot because the state now has a Republican governor. That means Stephen J. Urban’s name will appear first in the Luzerne County Council race because he was the highest Republican vote-getter in the primary. His name will be followed by the 10 other Republi-

cans in the order of their vote results and then the 11 Democrats, three Libertarians, two Independents and one American Independent in the race. All 28 names will appear on the same page, and voters may choose 11 from any party. Dick Hughes will be the first candidate listed in the judicial race because he received the most Republican votes in May. Judicial candidate Fred Pierantoni received the highest overall vote count in May – 23,995 -- but contenders Joe Sklarosky Jr. and Michael T.

Hazleton Area to buy Butler Twp. building

School board also moves closer to buying the former Bishop Hafey High School. By JERRY LYNOTT jlynott@timesleader.com

HAZLE TWP. – The Hazleton Area School District agreed to buy a vacant office building in Butler Township and moved closer to purchasing the former Bishop Hafey High School to meet the growing student population and consolidate classrooms. In a 6-3 vote at a special meeting Thursday the school board approved the $4.42 million purchase from the Greater Hazleton Community Area New Development Organization for the building in the CAN DO Corporate Center and two adjoining lots. The sale still needs the approval of the state Department of Education and the district must put together a financing plan to fund the purchase. Shortly after the vote, the board held a second meeting on the pending Hafey sale from the Diocese of Scranton for approximately $5.5 million. Unlike the CAN DO deal, public comment supported the purchase of the vacant school building located across the street from the district’s high school. The board was required by the state to hold a PlanCon C

meeting on the Hafey sale to allow for comments. A vote is likely at the next board meeting. “We cannot afford to buy two buildings,” said Clarence John, board president, who voted against the CAN DO deal. “We cannot afford not to buy two buildings.” The district has been struggling to accommodate an average of 300 new students over each of the last five years and searching for ways to bring students back into buildings from 24 modular classrooms spread across the district. It has considered a number of options from new construction to expansion and has settled on acquisition of existing buildings as the least expensive alternative. “I just want to assure the community that we did labor, the nine of us,” said board member Bob Mehalick. The CAN DO building, which is being looked at as a magnet school for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, would accommodate approximately 480 students, according to the district’s architect Crabtree, Rohrbaugh & Associates of Mechanicsburg. The Hafey school would house 563 students, said Harry Pettoni, senior project manager with the firm. If construction was to begin next summer, the school would be ready for the start of the 2013 school year, he said.

Vough also will be listed before him in that order on the ballot because they secured more Republican votes. Lesa Gelb and Jennifer Rogers will be listed after Pierantoni, with Molly Hanlon Mirabito’s name appearing last. Voters may choose six candidates. The placement is based on a “party of preference” law that must be followed, county Election Bureau Director Leonard Piazza said during Thursday’s Election Board meeting. He stressed that election results in recent years have proven that ballot position doesn’t sway results. Stephen A. Urban, for example, received the most Demo-

cratic votes in May, even though his name appeared last on a ballot of 33 contenders. In other business, Piazza said he forwarded a complaint to the district attorney about alleged politicking too close to a polling place in the May 17 primary. County District Attorney Jackie Musto Carroll said she forwarded the complaint to the state Attorney General’s Office for further investigation to avoid any appearance of a conflict of interest. A temporary clerk hired by the county to work at Wilkes-Barre’s Kistler Elementary School polling location had submitted a written complaint to the county

accusing Wilkes-Barre Mayor Tom Leighton and Kingston Mayor Jim Haggerty of standing inside the building to interact with voters, shake hands and pass out literature. Leighton and Haggerty have denied the claim. State election law prohibits campaigning within 10 feet of polls. Those convicted could face up to seven years in prison and/or a fine of up to $15,000. Piazza said a new sign will be posted at all polling places on Nov. 8 reminding candidates and campaign workers of the 10-foot ban. Another new sign will alert voters that tips for election workers are prohibited, he said.

Road-and-bridge work backed Elected officials tour site of Moosic Bridge to urge state to invest in infrastructure.

By CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES chughes@golackawanna.com

MOOSIC – There was a time when it was dangerous to cross Lonesome Road in Old Forge, according to Bloomin’ Idiots Floral and Garden Center co-owner Jackie Bower. “Now, you can go out and play baseball in the middle of it,” she said. The business at 100 Lonesome Road is one of several that have been drastically affected by the April 5 closure of the Moosic Bridge on Main Street. The site was the focus of elected officials and local labor leaders on Thursday who said the state must invest in infrastructure to ensure public safety, keep Americans at work by saving small businesses like Bower’s and put construction workers back on job sites. “It’s been a long summer,” said Bower, a Moosic resident who opened his business seven years ago. Customers have had to navigate back roads and detours to reach the business. Sales are down about 45 percent from last summer’s numbers, accounting for almost $30,000 in revenue.

CHRISTOPHER J. HUGHES/THE TIMES LEADER

State Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski, D-Wilkes-Barre, speaks at a press conference Thursday in Moosic about the need for infrastructure investments across the state.

State Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski, D-Wilkes-Barre, said investments in infrastructure are the victims of “political gridlock” caused by Gov. Tom Corbett’s pledge not to raise taxes. Stalling infrastructure investments to maintain a political future is “penny wise and pound foolish,” Pashinski said. The state currently leads the nation in deficient bridges, according to Roxanne Pauline of the Northeast Pennsylvania Area Labor Federation. State Rep. Sid Michaels Kavulich, D-Taylor, said it’s time for state officials to “put our priorities on infrastructure … then we can move up the ranks in a lot of other things – jobs, the economy

and public safety.” Recommendations from a Transportation Funding Advisory Commission have been on Corbett’s desk since Aug. 1, according to state Rep. Kevin Murphy, D-Scranton, yet no action has been taken. That report lays out several options, including but not limited to increasing driver and vehicle fees, uncapping the oil company franchise tax over five years, updating traffic signals to LED lights to improve efficiency and dedicating 2 percent of sales tax revenue to transit. “We’re hanging on by a thread now,” Bower said. “In two years, nobody on Lonesome Road is going to be in business.”

Bear Creek Charter School helps flood victims By JANINE UNGVARSKY Times Leader Correspondent

BEAR CREEK TWP. -- Faculty and staff from the Bear Creek Charter School and the Bear Creek Foundation provided manpower, supplies, equipment and funds to help victims of the September flooding, the school’s Board of Trustees was told Thursday. School CEO Jim Smith reported that in exchange for a donation to benefit flood victims, school staff was allowed to dress down. The foundation matched the funds, and proceeds went to assist a family that suffered damage to both their business and home and that has students in the

shared with Zola. Prosecutors assistant district attorneys Chester Dudick and Alexis Falvello say Zola stabbed Cave eight times in a premeditated and deliberate act. Zola’s attorneys, Ferris Webby and Joseph Yeager, say the killing – which Zola did not deny doing – was alcohol-fueled in combination with betrayal, anger and disappointment. “It’s the appropriate verdict,” Webby said, noting he and Yeager were pleased with the jury’s decision. Dudick said after speaking briefly with Cave’s family that they are satisfied with the verdict and are happy the case is finally over. There had been a number of court hearings in which Zola wanted new attorneys and withdrew his guilty plea. “The jury rendered its verdict based on the evidence as they

school. In addition, Smith said, cleaning supplies were donated to more than 75 flood victims and school equipment and staff joined forces with a crew from Bear Creek Township to assist residents with clean up efforts. Smith said the cash and supplies donated totaled about $3,000. The board also had a preliminary discussion about the purchase of a yurt – a wooden structure based on a traditional Mongolian portable dwelling – that Smith said will be used as an environmental science classroom. Smith said the Foundation would pay the estimated $20,000 cost of the yurt.

In other business, the board: • Approved employee incentives for the 2010-11 school year totaling $123,188 and representing about 89 percent of the total possible incentive payouts. • Approved a severance package for former head Principal Margaret Foster. • Expressed appreciation to an anonymous donor who paid for line painting in the parking lots. • Discussed plans for the school’s Halloween events, which will include games and a “haunted house” for kids in grades kindergarten through fourth at St. Christopher’s Center on Oct. 28. The popular event will be open to the public at a nominal charge.

saw it,” Dudick said. In his closing argument Thursday morning, Webby said the case wasn’t about who killed Cave, but whether Zola acted intentionally during the act. “That (Zola) killed (Cave) with intent and malice has not been proven beyond a reasonable doubt,” Webby said of prosecutors seeking a first-degree murder conviction. Webby argued Zola did not lay in wait for Cave inside her Plymouth home because he had the lights on, had spoken spoke with Cave’s daughter and was moving his belongings out to his vehicle. Webby said prosecutors time and time again avoided the fact that Zola was highly intoxicated after drinking between 34 to 41 beers throughout the day leading up to Cave’s death, and that investigators never collected a blood sample to determine Zola’s blood-alcohol content nor did they ask Zola how much he had to drink. The defense attorney also said his client was not sure Cave was dead until told so by investiga-

tors. Dudick said in his closing argument he did not dispute Zola had a drinking problem but he did believe Zola went to Cave’s place to wait for her. The assistant district attorney told jurors of the events leading up to Cave’s death all show Zola had intent to kill her: The couple had an argument at a local restaurant the night before; Cave shut off Zola’s cell phone service; Zola thought Cave was seeing other people. “It was a slow boil and he got angrier and angrier,” Dudick said. Zola went to Cave’s residence that night, parked a block and a half away and waited for her in the kitchen, he said. To convict Zola of first-degree murder, jurors wouldn’t have had to have evidence that said Zola planned all day to kill Cave, only that he would’ve been able to form the intent in an instant, Dudick said. “He knew what was going to happen,” Dudick said. “He wanted it to happen.”

LOCAL United Way restarts campaign Organization’s biggest fundraiser was suspended last month when flooding hit the area. By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE -- A fund drive to help local people in need that got derailed when the September rains swelled the ranks of the needy is back on track. United Way of Wyoming Valley suspended its annual community campaign that began in September to put its resources toward helping flood victims, but has re-launched the fundraising this month.

“This is going to be a tough year, and there are lots of people in the Wyoming Valley who could really use help,” Vice President of Resource Development and Huff Strategic Planning Kristen Huff said. “A donation to the United Way of Wyoming Valley will help us make a difference.” The annual community campaign is the organization’s biggest fundraiser, bringing in more than $4 million last year. The money goes toward 46 area programs run by 27 non-profit agencies. Last year, that money helped more

than 30,000 people in the Wyoming Valley. A needs assessment by the United Way showed several problems merit high priority in Luzerne County: Abuse prevention and victim assistance; helping the more than 40,000 people in Luzerne County living in poverty get basics such as shelter and food; and helping provide affordable quality child care for more than 10,000 children under age 5 living in low-income households. This year marks the 90th anniversary of United Way of Wyoming Valley. This is the first time since 1995 that the drive is being held without David Lee at the helm as executive director. Lee retired without explanation in May, and No-

rene Bradshaw is serving as interim executive director while a nationwide search for a replacement continues. Huff conceded the economic downturn of the last two years has had an impact on the ability to raise money. One reason: The United Way relies in part on contributions made through payroll deductions at work. The economic downturn and resulting high unemployment are a double whammy. More unemployed people means greater need for United Way support, yet fewer people working means fewer donating through their workplace. “That’s why it’s so important to donate this year,” Huff said. “If you could give even one dollar a week, it helps.”

Sara Miller tells hearing Jesse Geasey is infatuated with bones. Alleged confession challenged. By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Sara Miller testified Thursday her estranged husband, Jesse Geasey, confessed to her about stealing a human skull from a crypt entombed in a mausoleum at Hollenback Cemetery. Whether a jury will hear Miller’s testimony remains unknown. Geasey’s attorney, Allyson Kacmarski, said the alleged confession is private communication between husband and wife protected by marital privilege. Miller said she filed for divorce, which isn’t final, and considers Geasey her ex-husGeasey band. Her testimony was permitted at Geasey’s preliminary hearing in WilkesBarre Central Court after Luzerne County Assistant District Attorney Mamie Phillips said the marriage is over and Geasey had fathered a child with another woman. Police allege Geasey forced open a locked door at a mausoleum on July 16, 2010, and smashed a marble faceplate before breaking into a coffin and stealing a human skull belonging to a woman who died Dec. 31, 1926.

WILKES-BARRE – Residents concerned about the proposed River Street Corridor Improvement Project asked a lot of questions Thursday, but many of them came away unsure if their suggestions will be seriously considered. About 60 people attended the presentation at Wilkes University’s Henry Student Center to listen to officials from Pennsylvania Department of Transportation, Pennoni & Associates, project managers, and Luzerne County describe the estimated $2 million project that will calm traffic on the busy downtown street and improve pedestrian safety.

W-B Board of Appeals upholds fines against developer Siniawa of Lackawanna County was fined for not clearing a demolition site. By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – The city Board of Appeals has upheld $17,000 in fines levied against a Lackawanna County developer for not clearing a demolition site. The fines levied against Siniawa’s property near Hazle Avenue and Pennsylvania Avenue are a result of the city’s contention the developer is in violation of its Code of Ordinances. The

city alleged “the site continues to be a nuisance property and in its current condition deemed unsafe and has been declared dangerous and unsafe.” The city fined the Murray Complex developer $1,000 a day from July 12 to July 28. Siniawa appealed the fines to the Board of Appeals at a hearing last week. Michael Simonson, the city’s assistant director of operations, said the site presented a danger to the public. Debris from the demolition of buildings on the site remains and is fenced in. Simonson said gates were often left open, allowing ac-

cess by the public and vehicles. “The board had three options -- to uphold the fines, reduce them or dismiss them,” Simonson said. “The site is now secure and no other fines are pending.” Robert Sakosky, Siniawa vice president, said he received a letter from the city informing him of the board’s decision. “I didn’t see anything regarding an appeal,” Sakosky said. “If we have to pay the fines, we will pay them. This won’t affect our plans for the site. We will continue to clean it up and hopefully develop the entire site.”

Siniawa has 90 days to pay the fines, Sakosky said. At last week’s hearing, Sakosky said a contractor hired to remove the debris left the job once all salvageable material was removed. Another contractor was hired, but Sakosky said the site won’t be cleared until next year. Siniawa originally proposed a $20 million project that would include 55 loftstyle condominiums, restaurants and 50,000-60,000 square feet of retail space. Simonson said gates at the site are now kept locked. He said they were open Thursday to allow pipe to be removed from the site.

Poet Tomas Transtromer wins Nobel in literature

he 2011 Nobel Prize in literature was awarded on Thursday to ToT mas Transtromer of Sweden, whose

surrealistic works about the mysteries of the human mind won him wide recognition as the most influential Scandinavian poet of recent decades. Characterized by powerful imagery, Transtromer’s poems are often built around his own experiences and infused with his love of music and nature. His later poems are darker, probing existential questions of life, death and disease. Transtromer is considered a master of metaphor, weaving powerful images into his poems without much embellishment. The award citation noted that his collections “are characterized by economy.” “Waking up is a parachute jump from dreams. Free of the suffocating turbulence the traveler sinks toward the green zone of morning,” reads the prelude to “The Great Enigma,” his last collection, released in Swedish in 2004 and two years later in English. “Things flare up. From the viewpoint of the quivering lark he is aware of the huge root systems .

Man thought passenger friend was drunk, not dead

A man accused of driving around Denver with a dead friend in the back of a car and running up a bar tab on the friend’s account said Thursday he thought the man was drunk, not deceased. Robert Young, 43, faces charges including abusing a corpse. Investigators allege Young and Mark Rubinson, 25, drove around with the body of their 43-year-old friend Jeffrey Jarrett in their car in August. “In my mind, I wanted to believe he was passed out,” Young said Thursday. “I didn’t want to believe he was dead.” Police said the night on the town started when Young went to Jarrett’s home and found him unresponsive. Young said he realized Jarrett was dead while leaving the bar and the two men took him back to his home after notifying police. They then went to a strip joint, where Young took $400 from an ATM, police said.

Republican field looks set between Mitt Romney and Rick Perry

Voters face tough choice in GOP race By KASIE HUNT Associated Press

WASHINGTON — The GOP presidential field apparently set, Republican primary voters are likely facing a choice between an experienced, establishment candidate in Mitt Romney and an insurgent presidential campaign novice in Rick Perry. With three months until voting begins, that’s the dynamic that’s starting to emerge now that former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie have said they won’t run for president in 2012. Their decisions — announced over the past two days — mean it’s all but certain that the Republican nominee will come from the current crop of candidates despite earlier hunger within the party

for more options. For now at least, the race is focused on Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who lost the Republican nomination in 2008 and in recent days has started to shore up support among longtime party leaders, and Perry, the Texas governor who has emerged as the top challenger despite a rocky few weeks that have stoked concerns among GOP elders about whether he’s ready to take on President Barack Obama. The dynamic is familiar. In 2000, Arizona Sen. John McCain mounted an unexpectedly fierce challenge to George W. Bush, who had the backing of much of the Republican establishment. McCain won the New Hampshire primary but lost the nomination to Bush. Eight years later, McCain

ran for the party nomination a second time and, early on, struck a tone of inevitability and got many party leaders to support his bid. He flamed out

for a while and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, who hadn’t run for president before, came out of nowhere to win the Iowa caucuses. Hucka-

bee briefly emerged as the alternative to McCain, but the Arizona senator eventually won the nomination. This year, a segment of the party’s conservative base has been eagerly rallying around candidate after candidate without finding a favorite. They flirted with real estate mogul Donald Trump; they backed Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann in a key test vote in Iowa; now they’re driving a surge in polling for businessman Herman Cain. Christie’s backers, who include many party elders and long-time donors, and Palin’s ardent fans had been waiting to see whether either of them would run. Now that neither of them are, those supporters are free to choose sides. It’s unclear where they will turn.

Corbett urges House and Senate to hold hearings on Pa. flooding lessons Gov. feels development, storm drain problems contributing factors to severity of damage. By MICHAEL RUBINKAM Associated Press

PINE GROVE — Gov. Tom Corbett called on the House and Senate to hold hearings into the catastrophic flooding that devastated towns throughout cen-

tral and eastern Pennsylvania last month, saying he’d like them to focus on what can be done to reduce the odds of a repeat. “I want to take a thorough look. I think Corbett the House and Senate can help,” Corbett said Thursday in Pine Grove, where he toured flood damage. “I think some hearings on

what we need to do to address this on a holistic aspect would be good to have here during the course of the fall and the winter.” Corbett surmised that intensive development and a lack of maintenance of storm drains may have contributed to the severity of the flooding caused by the remnants of Hurricane Irene and Tropical Storm Lee. Thousands of homes and businesses were damaged or destroyed.

“I think we have to take a look at how developments are made, and how much water is running down into streams that frankly wasn’t running down into streams maybe 10, 15, 30 years ago,” Corbett said. “We have to do a little bit better planning.” Pine Grove Mayor Kim BrownZerbe, who led the tour, pressed Corbett to accelerate the removal of gravel and debris that accumulates under four state-owned bridges in the borough.

Judge denies new trial for ex-commissioner SCRANTON – A federal judge denied former Lackawanna County Commissioner Robert Cordaro’s request for a new trial on his corruption conviction. Cordaro and former Lackawanna County Commissioner A.J. Munchak were charged in March 2010 with multiple counts of corruption stemming from illegal cash payments received while in office. They were convicted in July after a two-week trial before U.S. District Judge A. Richard Caputo. Cordaro sought a retrial, arguing that Caputo had prevented testimony that would have rebutted evidence by the prosecution, that government attorneys knew or should have known a key witness – Al Hughes – lied under oath, and that prosecutors failed to disclose evidence that the de-

fense could have used to discredit Hughes. In paperwork denying the retrial, Caputo wrote that the Cordaro testimony was properly barred as hearsay, that both Hughes and a rebuttal witness called by the defense offered “equivocal testimony” leaving no proof Hughes perjured himself, and that sufficient evidence was provided to Cordaro’s attorneys to make their case. Caputo wrote that, by law, prosecutors are not required “to conduct a defendant’s investigation.” Caputo, in essence, upheld his own rulings made before and during the trial. His denial of a retrial is a necessary step in the effort by Cordaro to appeal to a higher court.

Nanticoke approves sale of properties By AMANDA MYRKALO Times Leader Correspondent

NANTICOKE – City Council on Wednesday night approved the sale of two city-owned properties and OK’d contracts with three snowplow operators, for which the city received bids. One property, 421 E. Church St., was “no use to the city,” according to Solicitor William T. Finnegan Jr. Council agreed to sell the property at 256 W. Church St., which the city had bought for $10,000, to the next door neighbor for $7,500. The city must do some sewer work there, and the neighbor will allow the city access without having to pay for an easement, said City Clerk Mary Beth Cheshinski. The city sold the empty lot at 421 E. Church St. for $2,750. Council did not names the buyers on Wednesday night and Cheshinski did not have the names available on Thursday. Council also awarded a snowplowing contract for $60 an hour to Frank Capozzi, Wilkes-Barre, for $65 an hour to Paul Zoltewicz, Nanticoke, and for $80 an hour to Matthew Owazany, Nanticoke. The bids were based on the sizes of the trucks and they will be used as needed if the city crew needs help, Cheshinski said. Director of Finance Pamela Heard said the city “budget is on track,” and future revenue and expenses should be close to budget. Council member Jon Metta reported the cleanup after last month’s flooding was continuing. During the open floor, resident Lauren Pote, whose family resided in a hotel for three weeks after

September’s flooding, thanked the mayor, police department and fire department. She also extended her gratitude to FEMA and state Sen. John T. Yudichak. Council will next meet Oct. 19, at 7 p.m. at the municipal building.

Tenant of burned house nabbed Louis Maurice Alston facing counterfeit money and drug-related charges. By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Hours after a fire damaged a South Fulton Street house on Wednesday, city police arrested a tenant, Louis Maurice Alston, on charges he tossed counterfeit money and was in possession of illegal drugs. Alston was arraigned Thursday in Wilkes-Barre Central Court on two counts of possession of a controlled substance, and one count each of forgery and

possession of drug paraphernalia. He was jailed at the Luzerne County Correctional Facility for lack of $20,000 bail. City firefighters responded to the double block house at 57-59 S. Fulton St. just before 4:30 a.m. Wednesday. Initial reports suggested there were a mother and three children inside 57 S. Fulton St. A quick search by firefighters turned up no one inside that half of the house. Neighbor Robert Smith knocked on doors and alerted two people inside 59 S. Fulton St. about the fire. Two city fire inspectors are investigating the cause of the fire.

Police allege Alston, upon seeing officers approach the South Welles Street residence, tossed money over a rear porch railing into a neighbor’s yard. Suspected counterfeit money, two bags of crack cocaine, two syringes and six bags of heroin were found in the yard, police said. Police said in the criminal complaint that Alston was found carryingcrack,heroin,anemptyheroin packet, a syringe and $920 in counterfeit money. U.S. Secret Service was notified about the alleged counterfeit money. Apreliminaryhearingisscheduled on Oct. 13 in Central Court.

Inspectors concentrated most of their search to a second floor bedroom. A woman and her three children arrived at the house Wednesday morning unaware their residence at 57 S. Fulton St. was damaged by flames. She said she left the residence with her children two days ago after an argument with her boyfriend, identified as Alston. Police said in arrest records that Alston resided at 57 S. Fulton St. Alston was arrested at about 8:15 p.m. Wednesday when police went to a South Welles Street residence looking for a man who had struck a person with a bottle.

Former mayor, neighbors trying to resolve helicopter dispute By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

The court order barring former Hazleton Mayor Mike Marsicano from landing his helicopter in his yard will be lifted for the time being. Attorneys for Marsicano’s neighbors, Richard and Tracey Franzosa of Hazle Township, indicated Thursday they plan to withdraw a preliminary injunction barringMarsicanofromtakingoffand landing the chopper at his home

and from flying the aircraft near their house. The injunction was issued Sept. 29 in response to a civil complaint filed Marsicano in Luzerne County Court by attorneys for the Franzosas, who alleged excessive noise from the helicopter caused their home to shake and became a source of distress, discomfort and

mental anguish. Judge William Amesbury said Thursday he received a letter from attorneys for both parties indicating the injunction would be withdrawn and Marsicano and the Franzosas were trying to work out a reasonable solution to their differences. Amesbury planned to watch Marsicano demonstrate today a take-off and landing at his property as part of a hearing on the com-

plaint that began Wednesday, but that hearing has been canceled for the time being. The injunction will be withdrawn without prejudice, meaningitcouldbereinstatedandcourt proceedings could begin again if the two sides cannot reach an agreement. Marsicano’s attorney, Conrad Falvello, and the Franzosas’ attorney Donald Karpowich could not be reached for comment.

QUOTE OF THE DAY “There may be no greater tribute to Steve’s success than the fact that much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented.” President Barack Obama The death on Wednesday of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs, creator of the iPhone, elicited reaction from the nation’s highest elected officeholder to everyday fans, one of whom compared the inventor’s passing to the untimely deaths of Elvis Presley and John Lennon. “It’s the end of an era,” said the Apple aficionado.

OTHER OPINION: IMMIGRATION

Reform needed on federal level

AST WEEK Alabama became the first of several states that have passed draconian antiimmigrant laws to successfully defend key provisions of its law in court. U.S. District Judge Sharon Lovelace Blackburn found that parts of Alabama’s controversial law didn’t conflict with the federal government’s authority to regulate immigration. That means that, effective immediately, state and local police must arrest and detain anyone they suspect of being in the country illegally. Schools are required to determine the immigration status of students and provide it to district officials. And immigrants caught without proper identification can be charged with a crime. Alabama’s law is cruel and unnecessary. But the state isn’t solely to blame for the legal

mess. Nor is Blackburn, though her decision to allow police to enforce immigration laws contradicts those of other federal judges who blocked similar laws in Arizona and Georgia. The fact is that a significant portion of the fault lies with Washington. Congress and the Obama administration have largely relegated immigration reform to a war of words, with each side blaming the other for the legislative inertia. As a result, states have been left to provide their own fixes by drafting what has become a national patchwork of regulations. That’s hardly the way to deal with the nation’s broken immigration system. The only way to prevent states from enacting cruel and inhumane laws is for the federal government to provide a comprehensive solution. Los Angeles Times

Subsidies to sugar farmers hurt community at large AS THE U.S. economy seemingly lurches toward another recession, employers across the nation are imploring Washington to adopt pro-growth policies that will foster the private investment our communities need to put people back to work. In Pennsylvania, the unemployment rate stands at about 7.8 percent. The number is probably higher when we include those people who have given up looking for work. But what is most frustrating are those instances in which the federal government takes actions that kill jobs rather than sustain them. This type of counterproductive government policy is exemplified by the ongoing bailouts for sugar-producing companies at the expense of Pennsylvania’s global leadership in confectionery goods. Every five years, Congress writes a new farm bill, and every five years, lawmakers give away federal largesse to about 6,000 sugar farmers. These goodies include cartellike quotas on domestic sugar production, restrictive trade barriers to sugar imports and artificially high government-mandated prices for sugar. The impact on Pennsylvania confectioners and other sugar-using food and beverage companies undermines our competitiveness with foreign firms that can buy open-market sugar at lower, global prices. If this sounds like a government handout or subsidy, that’s exactly what it is. The results are much higher prices and tighter

DAVID N. TAYLOR supplies than would exist in a free market. What’s worse, these hidden taxes not only hurt our state’s manufacturers and confectioners, but also hurt consumers who are compelled to pay higher prices for everyday products such as bread, peanut butter, tomato sauce and even canned or frozen fruits and vegetables. These subsidies for sugar farmers hurt our community because they create major economic incentives for U.S.based manufacturers to import sugar-containing products or relocate plants and factories outside of the United States in order to avoid these restrictive policies. Ultimately, the U.S. sugar policy is a hidden but very real tax on food manufacturers, their employees and their customers. If the government is going to increase our taxes, it should be done openly – not like the stealth tax on sugar. The United States can no longer afford to maintain government giveaways such as the sugar subsidy program. In addition to employing more than 40,000 Pennsylvanians, the sugar-using industry in our state generates more than $1 billion in wages for its workforce, and represents tens of billions of dollars in shipments in and out of Pennsylvania. This is real value for Pennsylvania’s economy. And, if liberated from the price-fixing

COMMENTARY

scheme benefiting a mere 6,000 out-of-state sugar growers, our state’s manufacturing and sugar-using community would see the U.S. price of sugar fall to the levels that buyers in other countries pay. With input costs down significantly – the world price of sugar is often half the U.S. price – these manufacturers could invest in new facilities, hire more workers and be in a far better positions to compete globally and set themselves on paths to long-term growth. The Pennsylvania Manufacturers’ Association urges our state’s entire congressional delegation to stand up for this mainstay of Pennsylvania industry and support legislation that would end the price-fixing on sugar. U.S. Rep. Joe Pitts, a Republican representing Lancaster and Chester counties, recently introduced a bipartisan measure, the Free Market Sugar Act, which would comprehensively reform the sugar program and unleash growth opportunities for this industry and manufacturers across the nation. We applaud Congressman Pitts’ efforts and urge other members of Congress to join him in ending this price-fixing cartel. The harmful impact of the sugar program is felt everywhere, from the manufacturing floor to the grocery store aisle to the kitchen table. Enough is enough.

e are heading for economic disaster and no one wants to address the real problem. Protests are breaking out in major cities all over the country, particularly in New York City. It should be asked: Are the Wall Street protesters all communists, anarchists or socialists? I say, no. They are people who have little chance for employment in an economic system that has become solely about profit. The capitalist system is the greatest system in the world, but only when it is fair capitalism. The system depends on consumers for corporate profits, but the very people who feed the wallets of the CEOs and corporate mavens are the ones who have been spit out, cast off and replaced by Chinese workers. We will never have a sound economy if we employ only the Chinese. There was a time when corporate America used its resources to create American jobs, so a middle-class person could earn a decent living. Manufacturing facilities

If you want to sell to the American people, that’s great. But shouldn’t you be obligated to manufacture at least 50 percent of your products in America? If we don’t change course we are doomed!

Last year, I did my junior-year research paper on “The Preservation of Historic Sites” and I felt as though the Sterling would be a perfect place for my senior project. I tried to contact CityVest months ago to get permission to photograph a portion of the inside of the building. I find it insulting that its members did not send back an email. I feel as though officials have been trying everything to get rid of this beautiful and historical site in our community, and now the flooding is merely an excuse. I urge officials to give the community proof of the damage through pictures. The hotel has been a part of the city skyline for 113 years; give us a reason why you are taking it away. Explain why the money to preserve it seemingly was thrown away.

Obama challenges GOP on jobs

President puts pressure on the Republican Party to get behind his plan. By BEN FELLER AP White House Correspondent

WASHINGTON — Defiant and frustrated, President Barack Obama aggressively challenged Republicans Thursday to get behind his jobs plan or explain why not, declaring that if Congress fails to act “the American people will run them out of town.” The president used a White House news conference to attempt to heighten the pressure he’s sought to create on the GOP by traveling around the country, into swing states and onto the home turf of key Republican foes including House Speaker John

Boehner and Texas Gov. Rick Perry. Giving a bit of ground on his own plan, he endorsed a new proposal by Senate Democrats to tax millionaires to pay for his jobs program. “This is not a game,” he said. Obama made no apologies for his decision to abandon seeking compromise with Republicans in favor of assailing them, sometimes by name. He contended that he’d gone out of his way to try to work with the GOP since becoming president, reaching hard-fought deals to raise the government’s borrowing limit and avert a government shutdown, and had gotten nothing in return. “Each time, what we have seen is games playing,” the president said. “I am always open to nego-

the economy has endured “jobless recoveries” before, in no previous recovery has such a high proportion of the unemployed been out of work this long. Labor Department figures show that for roughly the past year and a half, one in three of the unemployed have been without a job for at least a year. That’s more than double the previous peak after the 1981-82 recession. Businesses would have to start hiring

tiations. What is also true is they need to do something.” Obama was still at the lectern when Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid told Republicans he would permit a test vote as early as late Thursday on the president’s original measure. There was little doubt it would fail, the outcome Republicans hoped for. The president predicted dire political consequences for his opponents if they don’t go along. “I think the American people will run them out of town because they are frustrated and they know we need to do something big, something bold.” “We will just keep on going at it and hammering away until something gets done,” he said. “And I would love nothing more than to see Congress act so aggressively that I can’t campaign

much faster before a larger proportion of the long-term unemployed would find work. Many employers see them as riskier than other potential hires. Some might need additional training. Companies aren’t likely to take such risks until the economy shows consistent strength. Brian Wedding, a roofing contractor based in Baton Rouge, La., acknowledges that he spends more time evaluating job applicants who have been unemployed for long periods. “A flag’s going to come up, for sure,” says Wedding, CEO of Jasper Contractors, which employs about 800 at nine locations nationwide. “We’ll have to dig a

Messages left with Bufalino on “It was never my intent to open this can of worms,” Mundy said, Thursday were not returned. “but it’s certainly not my fault the borough is not in compliance Inspector: Poor timing Jeff Remas, who owns Adwith the law.” The borough manager, council vanced Code Group, the contractpresident and building inspector ed permit and inspection compaall disagree with the state’s letter, ny hired by the borough, said the and they contend the borough is state’s determination comes at an in compliance and hundreds of inopportune time.

The borough’s solicitor, Mark settled. He said the borough’s inability Bufalino, has been asked to inves-

against them as a do-nothing Congress.” Yet Obama’s campaign has not swayed Capitol Hill Republicans who oppose the higher taxes he and other Democrats want to use to pay for his proposal. They accuse Obama of playing “campaigner in chief” instead of working with them. “If the goal is to create jobs, then why are we even talking about tax hikes?” Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell, RKy., said Thursday. Republicans are resolutely opposed to much of Obama’s jobs initiative, both for its tax increases for wealthier people and small businesses and its reprise of stimulus spending on roads, bridges and schools and grants to local governments to pay the salaries of teachers and first respon-

little deeper into what’s going on.” Those who have been out of work for many months describe troubling experiences. Linda Evans, 59, a home health care worker in Washington, D.C., has struggled to find work since her last employer left the area three years ago. She applies for openings online and attends job fairs. But she’s found it difficult even to get interviews. “I don’t know if it’s my age or what,” she said. “I never expected to be in this situation. And I’m scared.” Long-term unemployment affects the economy in key ways:

to issue permits or inspections related to common repairs being done -- electrical rewiring, new walls, floors or plumbing being installed, for instance -- could lead to shoddy work going undetected. It could also cause those living in the flood plain to have difficulty getting insurance settlements. Remas said he constantly finds mistakes in contractors’ work, even though those on the job know an inspection will occur. He said he worries about what will happen now that the state has essentially ordered the borough to cease inspecting alterations or repairs to residential properties. He said he feels badly for those who want to make sure the work is being done properly.

• It lowers skill levels, making it harder to match the unemployed with available jobs. Harry Holzer, a Georgetown University economist, said that once hiring picks up, employers tend to complain that they can’t find people with the new skills they need. Companies are already having trouble filling advanced manufacturing jobs, Holzer said. • More people rely on government benefits. Unemployment benefits were extended during the recession to a record 99 weeks in states with the highest unemployment rates. The number of people receiving food stamps topped 45 million in May. That’s another record.

centive,” Mundy said of the fee, especially at a time when people are rebuilding their lives, to have an inspector “hold them over a barrel” is unconscionable. She contacted Labor and Industry about the practice and the result was a letter sent to the borough’s mayor on Monday from Edward Leister, the director of the department’s Bureau of Occupational and Industrial Safety. The letter didn’t address the fee schedule, however.

no- or low-interest loan in Pennsylvania,” Dwyer said. Barletta spokesman Shawn Kelly said Barletta “will listen to any ideas about how to help businesses recover from flooding and protect American jobs.” Barletta’s Disaster Loan Fairness Act, which would lower the interest rate of disaster relief loans to 1 percent, is before the House Committee on Small Business and is also being scored by the Congressional Budget Office. Barletta believes that providing disaster recovery loans for American homeowners and businesses “should not be a moneymaking operation for the federal government,” Kelly said. Dwyer said state Sen. John Yudichak, D-Plymouth Township, toured his plant, has been accessible and referred him to agencies that are helping him in recovery. “I haven’t had too many – if any – businesses pleased with the re-

on couples making more than $250,000. The president’s strident tone underscored a difficult political predicament as he seeks re-election with the economy slowing and unemployment stuck above 9 percent. “Our economy really needs a jolt right now,” he said.

Older workers unable to find jobs often draw their Social Security benefits earlier. Many also have health problems and end up on government disability programs. • The long-term unemployed who do find jobs again will likely do so at lower pay. A study by the Congressional Budget Office found that the long-term unemployed earn, on average, 20 percent less when they finally find work. Still, it’s hard to predict the economic outcome because no one has seen such levels of long-term unemployment before, said Steven Davis, an economist at the University of Chicago.

“I share their concerns about shoddy work,” said Mundy, who also urged anyone having work done to hire an inspector and withhold final payment to the contractor until the inspection is complete. The issue started, according to Mundy, when numerous constituents contacted her about the borough’s practice of requiring permits for non-structural work in homes and a 1.5 percent surcharge fee to have the borough issue a building permit and inspect the work. “I think it’s a very unhealthy in-

Most of Dwyer’s employees earn $13 to $25 per hour; managers earn more. Dwyer said it’s easier to retain jobs than create new ones, so officials should be finding resources to help keep the jobs in the area. He also thinks the government should help employers like him who keep employees on payroll and have them perform flood recovery work rather than collect disaster unemployment assistance. “They’re going to pay these peo-

Borough Manager Savino Bonita said it is possible the borough has believed it was in compliance when technically it is not, but he said he would like to get a straight answer from Labor and Industry specifically addressing the borough’s perceived shortcomings. Mundy sent out a letter to all municipalities in her district on Thursday advising them to investigate their own compliance with Act 92 and if they find they are not, offering them ways to come into compliance. She said she is also looking into legislative ways to address the issue. sponse of SBA in terms of loan rates and the speed of the process,” Yudichak said. Businesses such as Dwyer’s “have a narrow window to get their equipment up and running and their products out the door – 30 days, 60 at the most,” he said. Yudichak said he has been working with state Sen. Lisa Baker, R-Lehman Township, on legislation to establish a state disaster assistance program, and Gov. Tom Corbett and Lt. Gov. Jim Cawley have been receptive to their ideas. Baker has said legislation will be proposed in late fall. He said people such as Dwyer who “invested their hearts and souls” in their businesses are “investing in Northeastern Pennsylvania and we want to keep them here. We’re going to do all we can.”

start. It was. Fister battled the Yankees through his five gritty innings, surrendering five hits and two walks but just one run. He left with a 3-1 lead. The Yankees put Mark Teixeira and Brett Gardner on second base against Fister in the second and third innings, but couldn’t score. Then, in the fourth inning, Fister escaped a bases-loaded, one-out jam by TIGERS retiring Russell Martin and Brett Gardner on soft pop-ups.

NEW YORK - It’s probably not surprising a guy named Fister would come looking for a fight. But knocking out the New York Yankees? Now that’s another matter. Yet, Doug Fister and the Detroit Tigers did exactly that Thursday, using an impressive display of power at the plate and on the mound to stun the Yankees at Yankee Stadium 3-2 and capture the decisive Game 5 of their American League division series. Don Kelly and Delmon Young staggered the Yankees by hitting back-to-back solo homers in the first inning as Detroit jumped Yankees rookie pitcher Ivan Nova early. Fister and four Tigers relief pitchers finished New York off, as Detroit closer Jose Valverde worked a perfect ninth inning – finishing with a strikeout of Alex Rodriguez – to send the Yankees into the offseason. Tagged for seven hits and six runs in 42⁄3 innings of a series-opening loss, Fister found the form in Game 5 that led him to an 8-1 record with the Tigers after they acquired him from Seattle at midseason. “It’s going to be a new fight,” Fister promised before Thursday’s See YANKEES, Page 5B

WBS Shamrocks select Powless as head coach By Times Leader Staff

WILKES-BARRE – The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Shamrocks announced Thursday that their new head coach for the 2012 season will be Barry Powless. “We are thrilled to have such an experienced player and coach lead the Shamrocks in their upcoming season,” said Jim Jennings, owner of the team. “It’s going to be a great season.” Powless makes for an experienced addition to the team. Powless, who has been coaching lacrosse since 1990, is the former head coach for the Rochester Knighthawks and the former assistant coach of the Iroquois Nationals. Prior to coaching, Powless playedattackforSyracuseUniversity before playing for the Nation-

And playing on Valley West’s artificial turf field last year didn’t matter as Dallas scored with 3:05 to play for a 21-17 victory. What will likely be the deciding factor is which team can slow down the others offense. Both are loaded with playmakers and each has one of the better lines in the WVC. “They are really similar to us in the fact they can beat you in so many ways,” Keating said. “They have a great running game and backfield with Rocco (Jim Roccograndi) and (Ryan) Zapoticky. On the perimeter, they have a bunch of weapons and can beat you out on the perimeter. “It’s a mirror image, so I think it’s going to be very interesting Saturday.” Since losing dual-threat quarterback Adam Goeringer, who rushed for two touchdowns in last year’s victory, Dallas made a conscious effort to get the running backs involved in carrying the ball. Roccograndi has answered the call in grand style, leading WVC Division 3A in rushing yards with 783 and rushing TDs with nine. His11.2 yards-per-carry average is second only to GAR’s Darrell Crawford (11.8) among all WVC ballcarriers with at least100 yards on the ground.

He has hit on 52.7 percent of his passes for 435 yards and six scores. He is also a standout defensive back. Lewis rushed for 161 yards in last year’s game, but 50 of them came on a second-quarter scoring run. Eliminate that run, and Lewis had 111 yards on his 30 other carries, an average of just 3.7 per rush. “You’re never going to stop him,”Jacksonsaid.“He’stoogood of an athlete and has the ability to make you miss.

for the Phillies tonight against his good friend and ex-Toronto teammate Chris Carpenter, trying to propel Philadelphia into this weekend’s National League championship series. “We realize it’s an important game, and I’m looking forward to that,” Halladay said. “I’m obviously looking forward to it, but I think you can’t put too much on what the game means.” It could mean doom for Philadelphia’s World Series hopes if their big bats stay silent. Slugger Ryan Howard blasted a game-changing three-run

homer in the series opener and singled home two runs in the first inning of Game 2, but he hasn’t had a hit since. He is just 2-for-15 in the series while carrying a .133 batting average. The guys around him haven’t been much better. But the Phillies only need one big night to change direction as fast as, well, a squirrel. “This is the biggest game of the season that we’re going to play,” Manuel said. “If our guys can come out in a relaxed frame of mind and pumped up, we can take it to them. “That’s what I’m looking for.”

ball 25, 30 times a game, so you’re never going to stop him completely. “We just have to try to contain him and when he gets in the open field you have to tackle him.” Last year’s game also marked the first time current Valley West running back Tashawn Bunch took on a bigger role. The speedster has continued his strong play, gaining 564 yards and scoring six

touchdowns this season. He and Lewis have recorded 100-yard games together three times this season. The Spartans’ main pass catchers – Dylan Flayhart, Derrick Simms and Lucky Williams – don’t have the gaudy number of their Dallas counterparts. Yet all three have made timely receptions and have combined for six touchdown catches.

Williamsport (1-4) at Pittston Area (2-3) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Williamsportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tom Gravish (62-69, 12th year); Pittston Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mike Barrett (2-3, 1st year) Last Meeting: Williamsport 46-35 in 2010 Scouting Williamsport: After losing in overtime to Stroudsburg in Week 3, the air has left the Millionaires. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve scored just two touchdowns in their last three games and are coming off consecutive lopsided losses to Coughlin and Dallas. RB Devin Miller started the season with a flash, but has rushed for just 64 yards the last two games. QB Sadiq Burkholter has put a little energy in the running attack, but much more is needed. Neither he nor QB Jordan Whaley have been able to jumpstart a stalled passing attack. Scouting Pittston Area: Despite losing three in a row, the program is heading in the right direction. The Patriots were in the game well into the fourth quarter vs. Dallas and Hazleton Area the past two weeks. Big plays were a problem last weekend in the 27-13 setback to Hazleton Area as the Patriots gave up rushing touchdowns of 60 and 61 yards. Williamsport will try to establish the running game, so the defense will be tested again. On offense, Pittston Area is running the ball better that expected, yet the Patriots havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a 100-yard rusher in their last nine games. Williamsport has allowed 7.6 yards per carry in its last two games, so the streak could end. What To Expect: Pretty much a toss-up if Williamsport comes to play. That could be a big if considering the Millionairesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; unexpected slide.

Hazleton Area (3-2) at Crestwood (4-1) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Hazleton Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jim Drumheller (3-2, 1st year); Crestwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Greg Myers (37-42, 7th year) Last Meeting: Hazleton Area 28-26 in 2010 Scouting Hazleton Area: After posting consecutive home victories, the Cougars take to the road for their next three games. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s as tough of a three-game road trip youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll find in the WVC. QB Chad Hoffman had 137 yards on the ground in last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 27-13 victory over Pittston Area. It was his second 100-yard game of the season. RB Brian Campbell had 89 yards and two TDs and has caught passes in every game. The Cougars havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thrown the ball much the last two games, relying on the ground game. Scouting Crestwood: The Comets made quick work of winless Tunkhannock last weekend, winning 49-0. The special teams blocked two punts, scoring on one of them, and recovered a squib kick. They rarely kick deep, instead booting pop-ups or squibs short. QB Nick Aigeldinger did all his damage running on the first scoring drive, then took a backseat. So did RB Roger Legg, who had a season-low 23 yards rushing because it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessary to overwork him. Crestwood led 28-0 when Eric Pickett returned an interception for a TD on the first play of the second quarter. What To Expect: Things point toward Crestwood, especially how the Comets dismantled an opponent last week that Hazleton Area struggled to finish off. But donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprised if the Cougars return down Route 309 with a victory.

Berwick (2-3) at Tunkhannock (0-5) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Berwickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gary Campbell (122-47-1, 13th year); Tunkhannockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rod Azar (0-5, 1st year) Last Meeting: Berwick 22-21 in 2010 Scouting Berwick: Berwick crushed Selinsgrove via air and ground for a 45-0 victory last week. QB Jared Pierce (11-of-15, 132 yds., 2 TDs) had his best game of the season and spread the ball around. RB Jared Freeman had 151 yards and a score. The defense posted its first shutout in 20 games, albeit against a Selinsgrove team much weaker than the powerful squads in recent years. Nonetheless, the victory could be the momentum needed to make a very strong run down the home stretch. Scouting Tunkhannock: The Tigers were overwhelmed quickly in a 49-0 loss to Crestwood last weekend. They allowed scores on offense, defense and special teams. At times, the offense looked like it could be successful. However, the play â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially on the line â&#x20AC;&#x201C; was too sporadic to gain any consistency. The defense continues to allow too many rushing yards and too many points. The Tigers are allowing 42.4 points per game. What To Expect: Berwick isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t about to let the momentum falter. It might take the Dawgs awhile to get their legs after the long bus ride, but once they do they should cruise to a win.

Wyoming Valley West (5-0) at Dallas (5-0) 1 p.m. Saturday The Coaches: Valley Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pat Keating (18-9, 3rd year); Dallasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Ted Jackson (222-80-3, 27th year) Last Meeting: Dallas 21-17 in 2010 Scouting Valley West: The Spartans shook off an early 6-0 deficit to overwhelm Coughlin 33-19. The defense scored its third touchdown in as many games on Brett Good interception return. However, the defense allowed a third consecutive power back to run for over 100 yards and it will be tested with another, Dallasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Jim Roccograndi. It will also have to handle the WVCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tallest â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and arguably most-talented â&#x20AC;&#x201C; pair of wideouts. The offense continues to kick it into high gear as QB Eugene Lewis and RB Tashawn Bunch each recorded 100-yard rushing games together for the third time this season. Scouting Dallas: After getting a scare from Pittston Area, Dallas thumped a reeling Williamsport team 41-6. RB Jim Roccograndi continued his strong running. QB Ryan Zapotickyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s maturity process continued to be accelerated with talented Shane Dunn and Jason Simonovich as his main targets. The run defense allowed a season-high 187 yards, but based on the box score it appears most of the damage came when the outcome was well in hand. However, the Mountaineers havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t faced a twoprong rushing attack like Valley Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. What To Expect: This will be Valley Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first game this season on real grass. Considering all the recent rain and Dallas has to use the field for practice, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t expect pristine conditions. This one could literally slip away from one of the teams.

Stroudsburg (4-1) at Coughlin (2-3) 7 p.m. Saturday The Coaches: Stroudsburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Joe Bernard (4-1, 1st year); Coughlinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ciro Cinti (31-29, 6th year) Last Meeting: Coughlin 28-20 in 2010 Scouting Stroudsburg: The Mounties won their last three games of 2010 under longtime coach Fred Ross, who was a lame duck most of the season, and continued the momentum under Bernard. Their only slip this season was a 7-3 upset loss to Pocono Mountain East in the rain two weeks ago. QB Robbie Bennie makes Stroudsburg go. He is more than halfway to another 1,000-yard rushing season and is a solid thrower. Senior Ben Kloepping is his favorite target. But running is the Mountiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; forte, and RB Andrew Broome is coming off a big game in a 59-19 rout of East Stroudsburg South last week. Scouting Coughlin: The Crusaders turned over the ball four times to Wyoming Valley West last week, with three leading to touchdowns in a 33-19 loss. One interception was returned for a TD, starting a run of 26 Valley West points. RB Joe Parsnik recorded his fourth 100-yard game, but he needed a season-high 23 rushes to get to 106. The defense will be tested for a third consecutive game by a running quarterback. Coughlin did a nice job corralling Williamsportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Sadiq Burkholter two weeks ago but was torched for 185 by WVWâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eugene Lewis. What To Expect: Coughlin has the backs to pound at Stroudsburgâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s defense. The difference will be whether the Crusaders can slow down Bennie, who is the key for everything Stroudsburg does.

Seminary’s Joanlenne and Redeemer’s Boich will continue play in Class 2A.

By JOHN MEDEIROS jmedeiros@timesleader.com

KINGSTON – It wasn’t the kind of day the Wyoming Valley Conference was hoping for Thursday at the District 2 Girls Tennis Tournament. Of the eight semifinal berths up for grabs, just two WVC players earned the chance to continue play today. Wyoming Seminary freshman Nathalie Joanlenne and Holy Redeemer junior Fallyn Boich both won three matches Thursday to reach the Class 2A semifinals today at Kirby Park. No. 2 seed Joanlenne cruised into the semifinals, winning the first 26 games she played. She won her first two matches in sweeps, then defeated her friend, Nellie Chmil of Holy Redeemer, 6-1, 6-2. “Something you have to say to yourself is that the key is to win,” Joanlenne said. “You have to be competitive, but not in a negative way. She was clearly my biggest competition in the draw so far. It’s important to play someone at your level as you compete in a tournament like this.” Boich, the fourth seed, was almost as dominating, dropping just one game in her first two matches. In her quarterfinal against Sheena Syal of Wyoming Seminary, she stayed on serve with

Two outs later, Victor Martinez rolled a single to center, and Jackson scored easily when the ball rolled off the glove of a hard-charging Granderson as Detroit took a 3-0 lead. Following two quick outs in the bottom of the fifth inning, the Yankees finally started swinging back. Robinson Cano delivered a mighty blow to pull New York within 3-1.

Boich broke Syal’s serve to take the first set, then won the next five games to take charge of the match, winning 6-4, 6-2. “I didn’t want her to get that streak going,” Boich said of her win over Syal, where she varied speeds on virtually every shot. “The first set, I tried to mix it up. In the second set, I let her play my game.” MMI Prep’s Gabriella Lobitz played well into the quarterfinals, but Scranton Prep’s Emily Walsh was nearly perfect in a 6-0, 6-1 victory. Lobitz impressed during the second round, rallying from a set point against to win a tiebreaker in the first set against Jess Lochie of Valley View. In the second set, Lobitz won the last 11 points of the match to advance. “It’s the momentum of being ahead and winning points,” Lobitz said. “It also helps that she had lost that first set. That’s weighing on her. The momentum was definitely in my favor and I took advantage of it. “My forehand really came through for me as well.” In Class 3A, Crestwood’s Kristi Bowman reached the quarterfinals, but struggled with her serve in a 4-6, 6-3, 3-6 loss to Alexa Abdalla of Abington Heights.

Fera making most of his second chance By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com

There was little to do except wait for the phone call. Anthony Fera knew it would be coming. He had a pretty good idea of when it would happen, too. But until Joe Paterno dialed him up and officially invited him back to the team, there was some time to kill. Banned from preseason camp by his coach because of an alcohol-related citation during the summer â&#x20AC;&#x201C; his second since arriving in Happy Valley in 2009 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Fera had to make sure he was ready to go when called. Because Penn State was going to need help in the kicking game. Badly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d just kick in my free time,â&#x20AC;? Fera said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d kick two days a week, three days. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d work out at the local gym. But everything with that is behind me. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just focusing on the future.â&#x20AC;? But the sophomore kicker has had Penn State fans thinking about the past in the last two weeks. As it stands now, Fera handles field goals, punts and kickoffs for the Nittany Lions, becoming the first to do that for the program since Chris Bahr in 1975. Fera worked slowly worked his way out of Paternoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s doghouse and back onto the field

Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Anthony Fera (30) has returned to the Nittany Lions and is handling the kicking and punting duties.

throughout the first four weeks of this season. He sat out the opener entirely before making his 2011 debut in the second half next week with a few punts. By the third week, however, Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kicking game was a

disaster and it very nearly cost the Lions a win down at Temple. Kickers Evan Lewis and Sam Ficken combined to miss all three field goal attempts in a game Penn State pulled out 14-10. The Owls blocked a field

goal and a punt in the contest. At that point the Lions were a miserable 1-for-6 on field goals on the season. Fera had already assumed the punting and kickoff See FERA, Page 7B

Tim Cook, left, and Steve Jobs, during a July 2010 meeting at Apple Inc. in Cupertino, Calif. Consumers and investors will be watching closely as Cook leads Apple after Jobs died on Wednesday.

Facing challenges

Apple must fight competition without its leader By MICHAEL S. ROSENWALD

The Washington Post

he death of Steve Jobs at age 56 comes at a crucial period in the history of personal computing. Apple has $76 billion in

the bank, but if faces challenges from seemingly every corner.

Google wants to crush the iPhone with its Android system. Netflix wants to dominate the world’s living rooms, leaving iTunes behind. Facebook wants to be the window to the Internet, controlling just about everything. And now Amazon is jumping into the tablet business. Apple comes at this battle not with Jobs, who gave up day-to-day control in August, but with a Southern, softspoken gentleman named Tim Cook, who debuted the new iPhone this week to mostly tepid, and even some harsh, reviews. Cook will battle Google and the other challengers with Jobs’s legacy

stalking his every move on Wall Street, in Apple’s stores, and in the hearts and minds of technology users around the world. No executive in the history of American business was more closely tied to a company’s brand than Jobs was with Apple. “The world rarely sees someone who has had the profound impact Steve has had, the effects of which will be felt for many generations to come,” longtime rival Bill Gates, the co-founder of Microsoft, wrote Wednesday night on his personal blog. With Jobs gone, the pressure on Cook will be relentless. There al-

ready were rumblings in the tech world this week that there wouldn’t have been such a tepid response to the new iPhone if Jobs, not Cook, had been onstage. To be fair, Apple maps out its projects years in advance, so Jobs was involved with this announcement and probably many to come. Apple’s defenders will say that Cook has a deep and talented executive team, which is true, with luminaries such as industrial design master Jonathan Ive. But the company recently lost its head of retail to JC Penney, and it remains to be seen whether Apple, without Jobs, will have the same power to attract other executives. The new iPhone, dubbed the 4S, will hit stores on Oct. 14. People will camp out for days in advance to get one. Lines will snake around malls. But for Apple without Jobs, the question is: Will they line up someday for the iPhone 5?

Analysts foresee 14 percent gain for S&P By INYOUNG HWANG Bloomberg News

NEW YORK -- Wall Street strategists say the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, after falling within 1 percent of a bear market this week, will post the biggest fourth-quarter rally in 13 years even after they cut forecasts at a rate exceeded only during the credit crisis. The benchmark index for U.S. stocks will climb 14 percent from yesterday to end 2011 at 1,300, according to the average estimate of 12 strategists surveyed by Bloomberg. The last time they were this bullish in October

was 2008, when the group predicted a 27 percent gain and the index lost 18 percent. Analysts from Oppenheimer to UBS and Barclays say equities will rebound from a decline of 19 percent since April as policy makers prevent a default by Greece and profits in the S&P 500 climb to $95.85 a share in 2011. Europe’s worsening debt crisis and the U.S. government’s loss of its AAA credit rating led strategists to cut their S&P 500 forecast in the past two months from an average level of 1,401.

“Investors are way too bearish and are being swayed by macro variables,” Brian Belski, the New York-based chief investment strategist at Oppenheimer, wrote in an email on Tuesday. “Fundamentals drive stocks,” he said. “U.S. portfolios are not positioned for a positive third-quarter earnings season.” Strategists shouldn’t be so optimistic given the severity of the European debt crisis, said Eric Teal, chief investment officer at First Citizens Bancshares Inc., which manages $4 billion in Raleigh, N.C.

CVS Caremark lease to 2026 Mericle Commercial Real Estate Services says CVS Caremark has extended the lease to 2026 for the 160,000-squarefoot building it leases from Mericle in Hanover Crossings, Hanover Township, and plans to expand its operations there. The building was configured by Mericle for use as a mail-order prescription fulfillment center for Advance PCS. Caremark merged with Advance PCS in 2003 and CVS acquired Caremark in 2007. Terms were not released. Calls to CVS Caremark and Mericle were not returned.

NEW YORK — September offered the latest sign that Americans will shop, but only when they think they’re getting a deal. The International Council of Shopping Centers said Thursday that revenue rose 5.5 percent in September, with several retailers including Target, Limited Brands and Kohl’s posting strong gains as consumers snagged discounted merchandise. The revenue increases, which beat Wall Street estimates, leave uncertainty about whether retailers will have to offer more bargains to lure consumers to buy during the winter holiday shopping season. Retailers can make up to 40 percent of their revenue during the period, which runs from November through December. The revenue gains at stores open at least a year — a key indicator of a retailer’s health — come as merchants look for a sign of how consumers will spend during the winter holiday season. Though many retailers reported betterthan-expected results in September, concerns linger that shoppers who are fretting about high unemployment, a weak housing market and turbulent stock markets, will continue to seek out bargains that could significantly eat away at retailers’ profits. For the holiday shopping period, The National Retail Federation, the nation’s largest retail trade group, expects sales to rise 2.8 percent to $465.6 billion. That would be smaller than the 5.2 percent increase during last year’s winter holidays, but slightly higher than the average increase of 2.6 percent for November and December over the past 10 years. Kohl’s, which suffered a sales decline in August, bounced back with a betterthan-expected 4.1 percent gain in revenue, in part because it stepped up discounting to lure shoppers. Target reported a 5.3 percent revenue increase in September at stores open at least a year.

U.S. midsized firms do well By RACHEL LAYNE Bloomberg News

BOSTON -- Midsized companies that added 2.2 million jobs during the recession and its aftermath say a slowing U.S. economy won’t stall sales growth now, according to a study by General Electric and Ohio State University. “Middle-market businesses have a solid track record for performance through the recession,” GE and the university’s Fisher College of Business said in a report on the study. “Looking forward into 2012, 80 percent of middle-market companies expect to grow over the next 12 months.” The study included 2,028 executives from companies with annual sales of $10 million to $1 billion. While mid-size firms’ payrolls fared better than those of large companies, which cut millions of jobs amid the worst slump since the Depression, the study also found challenges. About 55 percent of participants reported insufficient access to capital markets, 84 percent lacked confidence in the national economy and only 17 percent reported confidence in their local economies. About 71 percent reported challenges dealing with regulations including tax law, and 45 percent are seeing challenges from global rivals, the survey said. The United States has about 200,000 mid-size companies, accounting for about 3 percent of all the nation’s businesses, the study said, citing Census data. The firms offer 16 percent more jobs per dollar in assets than large companies and about 80 percent more jobs per dollar in revenue, the study indicated. Of the jobs they added from 2007 to 2010, about 500,000 were in the Midwest, a region where large companies eliminated 4.9 million workers.

There is no one more deserving of a beautiful forecast for the weekend than you. Indeed, it has been a pleasure for me all this week to bring you the good news about having no rain and tons of sunshine. The sun's rays are now as strong as they are on the 6th of March. Of course, it is much warmer now because the temperature of the ground and of the air high above the ground are much warmer. Also, water temperatures are much higher now than in March, and this all contributes having an average high now of 65 as opposed to 43 in early March. The highs this weekend will match those normally found in early June. - Tom Clark
