Safety at the new South Washington Street transit hub has been discussed since an elderly man died there a month ago. Edward Rehill, 86, died as a result of injuries suffered when an authority bus backed over him at the center. An investigation by city police continues.

The Luzerne County Transportation Authority’s Safety Committee chairman said concerns about pedestrian safety at the intermodal center were not forwarded prior to a fatal accident because city officials don’t consider them to be problems.

WILKES-BARRE – Lamont Cherry did not move when a Luzerne County jury on Thursday found him guilty of causing fatal injuries to 1-year-old Zalayia McCloe. Cherry, 37, sat motionless in a chair, hunched over with his elbows on a table, when the jury foreman read the verdict: guilty of third-degree murder. Sheriff deputies quickly handcuffed and Cherry shackled Cherry in the courtroom minutes later. “I still maintain my innocence,” Cherry said while being escorted from the courthouse. McCloe’s mother, Christa Smith, breathed a loud cry in the courtroom when the verdict was read. County detectives and Wilkes-Barre police alleged Cherry violently shook McCloe while she was in his care inside a Carlisle Street residence where he lived with Smith on May 29, 2009. McCloe was flown to the Janet Weiss Children’s Hospital See CHERRY, Page 9A

Worker claims harassment By TERRIE MORGAN-BESECKER tmorgan@timesleader.com

SCRANTON – A former road department worker for Exeter Township has filed a federal lawsuit alleging he was fired after he complained about being sexually harassed by the township’s female police chief and questioned the work habits of a township supervisor. Neil Williams of Lockville Road, Harding, claims he was subjected to a hostile work environment beginning in December 2009 after he complained that police Chief Nancy Smith had followed him to job sites and made sexually suggestive comments, insinuating she wanted to engage in sexual relationships with him. Williams said he complained

to township supervisors, but they took no action against Smith. Williams said charges of public drunkenness and disorderly conduct filed against him by Smith in September 2010 were false. The charges were dismissed by a Luzerne County judge. Williams said he also came under fire in September 2009 after he questioned why township Supervisor John Coolbaugh, who worked on the road department, was not required to punch a time clock. Williams said he discovered discrepancies between the hours Coolbaugh claimed and those that he actually worked, but the township’s two other supervisors ignored his concerns. After Williams raised the issue,

Coolbaugh began to harass, demean and threaten him on a daily basis, calling him names and demeaning him, Williams claims. In January, Coolbaugh notified Williams he had been laid off. Supervisors voted a month later to fire him. A woman believed to be Smith hung up on a reporter who phoned her home Thursday evening seeking a comment. Coolbaugh could not be reached for comment. Williams’ suit names as defendants Smith, Coolbaugh, the township and supervisors Benjamin Gadomski and Donald Hoffman. It seeks damages on several counts, including violations of his right to free speech and malicious prosecution.

School flood repairs near $500,000 By JANINE UNGVARSKY Times Leader Correspondent

EXETER – The Wyoming Area School Board is considering a proposal to award a contract for more than $428,000 in flood-related repairs to the Montgomery Avenue Elementary School, but just how that contract will be paid for is yet to be determined. At a work session Thursday, the board fielded some questions about the proposal to award the work to Panzitta Enterprises, a plan the board said is contingent upon receiving both insurance proceeds and Federal Emergency Management Agency assistance to fund the project. In addition to the Panzitta proposal, the board considered the ratification of the awarding of a $55,008 proposal to Forrester Environmental Inc. for the removal of the wooden gymnasium floor at Montgomery Elementary, which was irreparably damaged in the September flood.

Audience members questioned whether the district had flood insurance and were told that there was no flood insurance on the school but that a claim had been filed with the district’s carrier and was awaiting a determination. District officials stated previously the damage sustained at Montgomery Elementary came from water forced up through drains. Solicitor Ray Hassey and Business Manager Tom Melone explained the district was pursuing these funding options, but officials preferred not to comment further until a determination had been made by the insurance company and FEMA. In other business, the board heard from Wyoming Area Music Sponsors member Rhonda Lambert, who thanked building and grounds manager Dave Amico and the maintenance staff for supplying a generator to be used

in the band parents’ stand at the football field after the electrical pole servicing the stand was damaged. Lambert also asked the board about the presence of school police officer Chris Alberigi at the scene of a downed power line along 8th Street. Lambert said she came across the situation during school hours and saw Alberigi directing traffic around the power line, and asked if this was within the duties of the school officer. Board members and district officials said Alberigi had reported in that he was assisting at the scene for safety reasons and he stayed only until he was relieved by local police.

LOCAL Dallas man struck woman with her own car while trying to tow it, police say

Tower is charged with homicide By MATT HUGHES mhughes@timesleader.com

PLAINS TWP. – Police on Thursday charged a former tow truck driver with homicide by vehicle in connection with a March 7 fatality. Police allege the driver, 55-year-old Robert Wickham of Dallas, drank at least 72 ounces of beer before fatally striking customer Denise Polinchak with her own vehicle in the parking lot of the office of the Social Security Administration on East Mountain Boulevard. Wickham was arraigned before District Judge Diana Malast on charges of homicide by vehicle while driving under the influence and driving under the influence of alcohol, as well as traffic-related charges.

Malast allowed Wickham, who came to his arraignment voluntarily, to go free on $25,000 unsecured bail with the condition that he not drink alcohol. A preliminary Wickham hearing has been scheduled for Oct. 28 before Judge Malast. Wickham said outside the courtroom that he is not an alcoholic and that he will be able to comply with Malast’s order. “I’m very sorry this happened,” Wickham said, but added, “I wasn’t drunk that night.” According to court documents: A

blood sample taken less than an hour after the incident found Wickham’s bloodalcohol content to be .116 percent, above the legal limit for drivers of .08 percent. Police also alleged that Wickham admitted to drinking three 24-ounce cans of Keystone Light beer that day. Police said Wickham, a former driver for Herbert’s Towing, Wilkes-Barre, told them that on March 7 he brought a 24ounce can of Keystone Light from home and bought two more at a restaurant on his way to a Scott Street garage. After removing snow from outside the garage, Wickham said he drank the three cans of beer before reporting to work at Herbert’s at 1:30 p.m., police alleged. Around 6 p.m., Wickham was dis-

patched to the Social Security Office to tow a vehicle with a brake problem for Polinchak, an employee at Social Security who requested help from AAA. Herbert’s Towing was at the time under contract to provide services for AAA. Wickham told police he tried to move the vehicle, a Buick Century sedan, with the driver’s door open and that after starting the vehicle, shifting to reverse and putting his foot on the gas, the engine raced and the vehicle sped backwards, striking Polinchak with the door and knocking her backwards. Polinchak died of multiple traumatic head injuries the following morning, with a Luzerne County Coroner ruling the death a homicide March 10.

Complaint targets Leighton A W-B City Council hopeful claims ‘criminal conspiracy’ in mayor’s, ex-official’s security systems. By JERRY LYNOTT jlynott@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – After criticizing the Mayor Tom Leighton and his former city administrator J.J. Murphy for spending more than $15,000 of public money to equip their homes with security systems, City Council candidate Linda Urban filed private criminal complaints against them alleging theft and misappropriation of taxpayer funds. Urban also said she contacted the state Office of Attorney General to look into whether the city’s tax-exempt status was illegally used in the purchases Urban from Torbik Safe & Lock Inc. “There seems to be a criminal conspiracy issue between J.J. and the mayor,” said Urban on Thursday. She provided The Times Leader with copies of the complaints filed with District Judge Andrew Barilla on Oct. 14, the day after she raised the issue at a City Council meeting. She accused Leighton of misappropriation of taxpayer funds by an elected city official, unlawful taking, illegal disposition of funds and criminal conspiracy to commit a crime of larceny. Against Murphy she filed charges of larceny, criminal conspiracy illegal disposition of public funds and theft by unlawful taking. The complaints have been forwarded to Luzerne County District Attorney Jackie Musto Carroll for review and a decision on whether to approve the charges. The district attorney said her office has not yet seen the complaints. At the recommendation of police Chief Gerard Dessoye, Leighton and Murphy had separate systems installed in their homes in 2005 after they said they received threats, verbal attacks and intimidating letters when the mayor decided to close firehouses. The city paid for monthly monitoring and reinstalled the system at Murphy’s home at a cost of $6,500 when he moved in late 2007. Leighton said he has not seen the complaint against him. When told what it contained, he said, “It sounds like a suspended local attorney helped prepare it.” He would not name the attorney, adding, “I don’t believe there’s any legal merit to it.” Murphy, who is no longer a city employee, also said he has not seen the complaint. He acknowledged that the security system is still in place and operating. “Anybody can file any action they want, frivolous or not,” he said. “She obviously hasn’t looked at the facts. I look forward to having this thrown out in court.” In filing the complaints, Urban cited the city charter that she said prohibits gifts to oneself. Urban, a Republican, is challenging incumbent Democrat and former city police Chief Bill Barrett for the seat to represent District D.

Shift ends for Thomas Deli Family selling longtime Wilkes-Barre business, first opened in 1986 in Parsons.

By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – The Tony Thomas Deli in downtown Wilkes-Barre is changing hands. Tony Thomas Jr., city councilman and owner of the popular delicatessen on South Main Street, said Thursday the Thomas family will no longer operate the business after the end of the month. They didn’t release the name of the new owner. “It’s time,” said Tony Thomas Sr., who turned the business over to his son a few years ago and remained on to help out. “My wife and I just decided we wanted to retire and do some traveling.”Terry Thomas, Tony Sr.’s wife of 54 years, will retire from the Wilkes-

Barre Area School District on Dec. 1 after 37 years. She joked that retiring at the same time could be a challenge for the couple. “I told her I’d buy a week’s vacation on each of the Thousand Islands,” Tony Sr., said. “She’ll be gone for 20 years.” Tony Sr. and Terry Thomas both are 74. They said they look forward to spending time at their Lehigh Street home and they will still help Tony Jr. in the catering business. The Thomases have four children – Tony Jr., Lisa, Denise and Jeffrey – four grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. The Thomas family is a GAR High School family for sure – every one has attended the Heights school. Their first deli opened in 1986 on George Avenue in the Parsons section. Tony Sr. said at the urging of then-Mayor Lee Namey and then-Councilman Tom Leighton, they moved to South Main Street in 1994. “We’ve seen a lot of changes in the

city over the years,” Tony Sr. said. “Years ago there was a lot of retail – five shoe stores and five theaters – and a lot of offices. It’s different now, but I think for the better. There’s a lot of traffic downtown now, especially at night.” Tony Jr., 54, has been on city council for 11 years. He decided to not seek reelection this year. Tony Jr. said it’s time for his dad to be out of the daily grind of the business. Andy Kochanski, the 44-year-old cook at the deli, has missed just 10 days of work during his 17 years with the Thomas family. “I guess I’ll look for another job,” Kochanski said. “I’ve opened up and closed this place every day, seven days a week, since I’ve been here.” Tony Jr. said the secret to the family business’ success has been “friendship.” “We have so many friends and contacts who have been faithful customers,” he said.

County OKs $2 million to rehab train station By JENNIFER LEARN-ANDES jandes@timesleader.com

Luzerne County commissioners voted Thursday to allocate $2 million in community development business loan funds to renovate the Market Street Square train station in downtown Wilkes-Barre. County Controller Walter Griffith advised commissioners to hold off and allow the new county council to decide whether to proceed with the project, particularly because one half of the allocation will be made next year. Kingston Township resident Tom Dombroski said he thinks half the money should be used to demolish the Hotel Sterling because engineers have concluded the Wilkes-Barre property is structurally unsound and road barriers around the site have caused a traffic “disaster.” The commissioners said the train station allocation will complete a pro-

ject that was already under way to renovate the property for county agencies that lease space in buildings that are not owned by the county. Those offices – the Griffith county’s Convention and Visitors Bureau, Charles T. Adams Senior Center and the Penn State Extension – pay a combined $134,000 in rent that could be used to maintain the property, officials said. Commissioner Chairman Maryanne Petrilla asked county Chief Engineer Joe Gibbons if $2 million will cover all work that must be done to make the historic building habitable. Gibbons said the base bid will include optional work that may be cut if bids for the entire package come in more than $2 million. The project will stabilize the station,

restore it to its original appearance as much as possible and prepare the interior for its occupants, Gibbons said. Commissioners gave the county Redevelopment Authority $6.1 million five years ago to purchase the 143-yearold former Central Railroad of New Jersey station from businessman Thom Greco and devise a development plan. The 6-acre complex at the corner of Market Street and Wilkes-Barre Boulevard, purchased for $5.8 million, also includes a strip mall. Commissioners also approved a $350,000 community development loan to Agolino’s restaurant in West Pittston. The loan, at 1.5 percent, will help finance a $700,000 project to renovate the flood-damaged property. Commissioners also voted to uphold the county planning commission’s denial of a rezoning application requested for a proposed townhouse project at the end of North Street in Pringle.

Luzerne County Controller Walter Griffith on Thursday called for Jim Bobeck to resign from the home rule transition committee because he is also paid to serve as a county arbitrator. The county home rule charter says no county employees may serve on the transition committee, except for the elected commissioners, Griffith said during Thursday’s county commissioner meeting. County Commissioner Stephen A. Urban said he plans to raise the issue at the next transition meeting. Bobeck said he removed his name from the arbitration call list this week because he’s too busy to handle assignments, though he had already planned to stop handling arbitrations if he’s elected to county council. Bobeck said he saw no violation with the transition committee because arbitrators could be considered independent contractors but not county employees. Attorney arbitrators are paid $125 to sit on panels of three to hear civil court challenges involving claims of $50,000 or less. BERWICK

Over 1 Million Dollars Paid out so far this week at Local Coin Shows as people cash in due to record high Gold and Silver Prices! ONLY 2 DAYS LEFT TO CASH IN! By KEN MCINTOSH STAFF WRITER ICCA will be placing ads in newspapers, radio and running television spots this week asking people to bring in any old silver and gold coins made before 1970. Those that bring in their coins will be able to speak with collectors one on one and have their coins looked at by a specialist. With the help of these ICCA members, offers will be made to those that have coins made before 1970. Offers will be made based on silver or gold content and the rarity of the coins. All coins made before 1970 will be examined and purchased including gold coins, silver coins, silver dollars, all types of nickels and pennies. Those that decide to sell their coins will be paid on the spot. If you are like a lot of people you might have a few old coins or even a coffee can full lying around. If you have ever wondered what they are worth now might be your chance to find out and even sell them if you choose. They could be worth a lot according to the International Coin Collectors Association also known as ICCA. Collectors will pay a fortune for some coins and currency for their collections. If it is rare enough, one coin could be worth over $100,000 according to Eric Helms, coin collector and ICCA member. One ultra rare dime, an 1894S Barber, sold for a record $1.9 million to a collector in July of 2007. While that is an extreme example, many rare and valuable coins are stashed away in dresser drawers or lock boxes around the country. The ICCA and its collector members have organized a traveling event in search of all types of coins and currency. Even common coins can be worth a significant amount due to the high price of silver and gold, says Helms. Washington quarters and Roosevelt dimes can be worth many times their face value. Recent silver markets have driven the price up on common coins made of silver. Helms explains that all half dollars, quarters and dimes made before 1965 contain 90% silver and are sought after any time silver prices rise. Right now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sellers market he said. The rarest coins these collectors are looking for include $20, $10, $5 and $2 1/2 gold coins and any coin made before 1850. These

Obama administration delivered T hea blunt warning Thursday that the

United States will do what it must to go after militants in Pakistan and Afghanistan, whether Pakistan helps or not. U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton led an unusually large U.S. delegation for two days of talks with civilian and military leaders who have resisted previous U.S. demands to take a harder tack against militants who attack American soldiers and interests in Afghanistan. Clinton arrived in Islamabad from Afghanistan, where she told Pakistan it must be part of the solution to the Afghan conflict. She said the U.S. expects the Pakistani government, military and intelligence services to take the lead in fighting Pakistan-based militants and also in encouraging Afghan militants to reconcile.

Chilling winter forecast Winter looks to be cold and wet across the northern tier of states, and the drought will worsen in the South, where conditions are expected to be warmer and drier than usual, government forecasters said Thursday. Like last winter, the Pacific Ocean cooling known as La Nina is affecting the weather, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. The Northeast and Mid-Atlantic have equal chances for temperatures and precipitation above, near or below normal. If enough cold air and moisture are in place, areas north of the Ohio Valley and into the Northeast could see above-average snow. JERUSALEM

Father: Son treated harshly The father of the Israeli soldier freed this week in a swap with the Islamic militant group Hamas said Thursday that his son “underwent harsh things” while held in Gaza. Noam Schalit made the remarks Thursday evening after spending the Jewish holiday of Simhat Torah reunited with his son, Sgt. Gilad Schalit. The comments provided the first details of how the soldier was treated during his 5 1/2 years of captivity in Gaza. Schalit was freed Tuesday in exchange for 1,027 Palestinian prisoners. Zuhair Al-Qaisi, from a Palestinian militant group that captured the soldier in 2006, told the Al-Hayat newspaper that the soldier was treated well. LOS ANGELES

Propofol expert testifies An expert on the powerful anesthetic propofol told jurors Thursday there was no way Michael Jackson could have caused his own death by swallowing the drug — a theory defense attorneys had at one point indicated could become a centerpiece of their case. Dr. Steven Shafer, an expert on propofol, said it’s impossible for the drug to enter the bloodstream in any sizeable amount if it is swallowed. He also told jurors it was highly unlikely the singer gave himself a fatal injection of the medication, or swallowed a lethal dose of a sedative. Coroner’s officials determined Jackson died from acute propofol intoxication, and defendant Dr. Conrad Murray has acknowledged giving the singer the drug as a sleep aid.

Farm owner was in debt By ANDREW WELSH-HUGGINS and ANN SANNER Associated Press

ZANESVILLE, Ohio — The owner of an exotic animal farm who killed himself after setting his menagerie of tigers, lions, bears and other beasts loose in the Ohio countryside was deep in debt, records show. Terry Thompson and his wife had money problems dating to the 1990s, but their debt had escalated in recent years and they owed at least $68,000 in unpaid income and property taxes, according to the court records obtained Thursday. Thompson’s collection of black bears, grizzlies, mountain lions, leopards and other exotic creatures was no secret to neighbors or authorities who were called many times over the years about animals wandering away. But their escape this time was no accident. Thompson, 62, unleashed them from his private Muskingum County Animal Farm near Zanesville, then shot

himself. Authorities had to hunt down and kill or capture the animals as they roamed the rural area, and only one monkey is unaccounted for. The man’s body was found near the empty cages with a bite wound on the head that appeared to have come from a large cat, such as a Bengal tiger, county Sheriff Matt Lutz said Thursday. Investigators have refused to speculate on

his motive. Thompson and his wife owed $56,000 in unpaid income taxes to the IRS and $12,000 in property taxes to the county. He also had two federal tax liens filed against him last year around the same he was sentenced to a year prison for possessing unregistered guns. Thompson got out of prison just last month. He had rescued some of the

animals at his preserve and bought many others, said Columbus Zoo spokeswoman Patty Peters. The couple spent much of their time and money caring for the animals, neighbors said. Most of the big cats and bears were declawed and had been bottle-fed by Thompson and his wife since the animals were babies, said Judy Hatfield, a family friend who visited the farm many times and said it wasn’t unusual to have a monkey jump on your lap. “I know how much he cared for them, and he would know that they would be killed,” Hatfield said. The sheriff said that he spoke with Thompson’s wife and that she was distraught over the loss of her husband and the animals. “You have to understand these animals were like kids to her,” Lutz said. “She probably spent more time with these animals than some parents do spend with their kids.” Sheriff’s deputies shot 48 animals — including 18 rare Bengal tigers and 17 lions.

Ministry: End is today – really Leader Harold Camping blames inaccurate prediction earlier this year on his biblical math.

By BETH DUFF-BROWN Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — A California ministry says the end of the world is nigh. Again. The Oakland-based Family Radio International that stirred a global frenzy

when it predicted the rapture would take 200 million Christians to heaven on May 21, now says the cataclysmic event will destroy the globe today. This time, the ministry and its 90-yearold leader, Harold Camping, are avoiding the media and perhaps a repeat of the international mockery that followed when believers awoke on May 22 to find themselves still on Earth. “I’m sorry to disappoint you, but we at Family Radio have been directed to not talk to the media or the press,” Camp-

ing’s daughter Susan Espinoza wrote in response to an email request about Friday’s doomsday scenario. Calls to the ministry in Oakland went to voicemail and were unreturned. Camping, who suffered a mild stroke three weeks after his prediction failed to materialize in May, still spreads the word through his Family Radio International website. God’s judgment and salvation were completed on May 21, Camping says in a message explaining the mix-up in his biblical math.

Alabama farm work has few takers since new law Immigration rules frighten away many Hispanics, and farmers say new workers not panning out. The Associated Press

ONEONTA, Ala. — Potato farmer Keith Smith saw most of his Hispanic workers leave after Alabama’s tough immigration law took effect, so he hired Americans. It hasn’t worked out: They show up late, work slower than seasoned farm hands and are ready to call it a day after lunch or by midafternoon. Some quit after a single day. In Alabama and other parts of the

country, farmers must look beyond the nation’s borders for labor because many Americans simply don’t want the backbreaking, low-paying jobs immigrants are willing to take. Politicians who support the law say over time more unemployed Americans will fill these jobs. They insist it’s too early to consider the law a failure, yet numbers from the governor’s office show only nominal interest. “I’ve had people calling me wanting to work,” Smith said. “I haven’t turned any of them down, but they’re not any good. It’s hard work, they just don’t work like the Hispanics with experience.”

Alabama passed its law in June and it was immediately challenged by the Obama administration as it has been in other states. Alabama’s law was left largely in place while challenges played out in court, frightening Hispanics and driving many of them away. The agriculture industry suffered the most immediate impact. Farmers said they will have to downsize or let crops die on the vine. Sen. Scott Beason, a Republican, said he has received several emails and phone calls from people thanking him AP PHOTO for helping them get jobs. He said none of the workers who thanked him have Farmer Jerry Marsh at a discussion wanted to talk to the media. about the immigration law’s impact.

ISLAMABAD, PAKISTAN

ALLENTOWN — Federal environmental regulators signaled Thursday they want to increase oversight of the natural gas extraction industry, announcing they will develop national standards for the disposal of polluted wastewaters generated by a drilling technique known as hydraulic fracturing or fracking. Energy companies have dramatically expanded the use of fracking in recent years, injecting millions of gallons of water, sand and chemical additives to unlock gas in deep shale formations in Pennsylvania, Texas and other states. Its prevalence has raised concerns about the potential impact on water quality and quantity. The Environmental Protection Agency announced that it will draft standards for fracking wastewater that drillers would have to meet before sending it to treatment plants. The industry in recent months has been recycling much of the wastewater or injecting it deep underground, but some of it is sent to plants that are ill-equipped to remove the contaminants. The new standards would also apply to wastewater produced by coalbed methane drilling. “We can protect the health of American families and communities at the same time we ensure access to all of the important resources that make up our energy economy. The American people expect and deserve nothing less,” said EPA Administrator Lisa P. Jackson. EPA has largely left it to the states to regulate fracking operations, and environmental groups cheered Thursday’s announcement as a long-overdue first step. The agency is also in the midst of a national study of whether fracking has polluted groundwater and drinking water and its potential future impacts. “The nation is in the midst of a fracking-fueled gas rush which is generating toxic wastewater faster than treatment plants can handle it,” Earthjustice attorney Deborah Goldberg said. Industry groups said wastewater disposal is already regulated by the states, with one criticizing the EPA for overreach. “Pennsylvania’s natural gas developers, as well as its regulators and service companies, are far ahead of EPA’s review of wastewater treatment standards for shale gas,” said Lou D’Amico of Pennsylvania Independent Oil & Gas Association.

Public lines up for new low-cost appliance that slashes heat bills

Amish craftsmen vow to keep up with rush for brand-new Hybrid-Thermic™ ‘Miracle Heater’ that uses about the same energy as a coffee maker per hour, so just plug it in and never be cold again

Everyone hates high heat bills. But we’re all sick and tired of turning the thermostat down and freezing our buns off. That’s why Sears knew they had a home-run on their hands with the first-ever low-cost appliance with Hybrid-Thermic™ heat technology. And no other heater anywhere has it. The brand-new portable Heat Surge HT L.E.D. sips so little energy, you can run it all day or all night for just about a buck. This modern marvel, hailed as the ‘Miracle Heater,’ caused such a frenzy at Sears stores, one shopper refused to leave until she got one. Since there were none in stock, store managers were forced to hand over the store’s only floor model, against store policy. So today, immediate action is being taken to give more people, more ways to get them. Beginning at 8:30 a.m., today’s readers are allowed to phone in or snag one online. Heat Surge even posted a 2-Day Double Coupon which has been reprinted on this page for today’s readers to use. By using this coupon, everyone who calls is being rewarded with $198. That makes this remarkable new home appliance a real steal at just $398. The Double Coupon Deal also entitles you to free home delivery. So now everyone has a fair shot at getting one. “Folks are saving money everywhere with the new Heat Surge HT L.E.D.,” said Kris Rumel, the analyst tracking the impact Heat Surge is having on consumer heat bills. This all started when Sears wanted the world-famous ‘Amish Miracle Heater’ that everyone was asking for. The shy but now famous Amish craftsman said Sears made the most sense. “I’d reckon they’re the oldest and most trusted in the country,” one of the Amish craftsmen known as Melvin said. “We’ve been saving folks money, big money. And we know it because we’re hearin’ about it,” he said. “They know about our quality. No particle board, just real wood. Fullyassembled cabinets by our hands and we’re making them right here in the good ole USA,” Melvin said. Director of Technology David Martin explained, “The Heat Surge HT L.E.D. is a revolutionary appliance that can easily roll from room to room. But we didn’t want it to look like some metal box that just sits there. So we turned to our Amish craftsmen and now each one is made to look like a sleek, slim fireplace that has no real flames.” “The peaceful f licker of the ‘Fireless Flame’ is so beautiful, everyone thinks it’s real, but it’s totally safe to the touch. All you do is just plug it in,” Martin said. People from Maine to Mississippi and even Florida and Arizona are flocking to get them because they are finally able to give their central heat a rest during this long, frigid winter. According to the avalanche of consumer reviews, people absolutely swear by them, repeatedly saying, “it saves money,” “looks beautiful,” and “keeps you warm head to toe, floor to ceiling.” And the word is getting out. That’s why people are clamoring to get them. But Martin said right now the real problem is making sure the Amish craftsmen can keep up with the looming Christmas rush. That’s why the Double Coupon expires in two days. So for readers hoping to get the new Heat Surge for themselves and take care of Christmas gifts for others, there is good news. You can use the 2-Day Double Coupon more than once. But there is a catch. You can only get away with it for the next two days from the date of today’s publication by calling the National Appliance Center at 1-888-414-3620. Then, when it arrives, you’ll be rushing to turn down that thermostat. Just plug it in, watch your heat bills hit rock bottom, and never be cold again.

Emergency center on way DALLAS TWP. – The Back Mountain Community Partnership will move forward with plans to create an emergency control center in the region, officials said Thursday. The group discussed applying for a gaming grant, state funds generated from fees assessed at licensed local gambling facilities to enhance host communities, to build a centrally located facility in the Back Mountain as an emergency management agency build-

ing. The idea for the facility, to which Dallas borough and Dallas, Franklin, Jackson, Kingston and Lehman townships would have access, was brought on by the extensive damage the region sustained during Tropical Storm Irene in late August and Tropical Storm Lee in early September. Dallas Mayor Tim Carroll told the partnership Dallas Fire & Ambulance Inc. purchased the former Back Mountain Medical Center on Route 118 in Lehman Township within the past two years.

Joseph J. Stankus 07- 07- 45 - 10 -21- 09

It’s hard to believe you are gone two years. Not a day goes by that I don’t think about all the wonderful things that you are. It’s not only my heart that you’ve touched But friend’s and family too, and just like me They miss you so much. Sadly missed by wife Tanya, aunt Josie, uncle Joe, your dogs Rudy and Bella and all who knew you.

He said Mark Van Etten, president of Dallas Fire & Ambulance Inc., offered the building and 9 acres of space for the partnership’s proposed project. Chairman Jim Reino Jr., of Kingston Township, said the group will need to put together a list of supplies each municipality would like to see stored at the facility. He suggested generators, water pumps and “road closed” signs. These items will also be part of the grant. In other business, the partnership expressed interest in working with the newly formed Back Mountain Chamber of Commerce. Lynn Banta, of the Back Mountain Economic Development Council, and Chip Morgan, of the Back Mountain Business Association, told the partnership the two organizations have recently decided to merge to form the chamber. Banta said the merger was an effort to encourage more economic growth in the Back Mountain region and to promote better membership through a stronger organization. She said nonprofit organizations, schools and others will be invited to join the group. “We don’t need the 100-employee plant in the Back Mountain,” said Banta. “We need the kind of businesses that fit with our characteristics.” Reino said he felt it would be necessary for the Back Mountain Community Partnership to have direct participation in the newly formed chamber to promote community awareness.

A second reading of the ordinance is set for November. Another ordinance, which received unanimous approval in on first reading, would amend the city’s per capita tax to exonerate active military members. The ordinance must still be approved by Greater Nanticoke Area and a second reading.

Legislators propose four bills to bring relief to families and businesses hit by flooding.

The attorney for a Berwick woman argues the trial did not come within a year.

By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – A Luzerne County judge dismissed charges against a Berwick woman after prosecutors failed to bring the case to trial within a year. Attorney Nanda Palissery filed a motion seeking to dismiss charges of criminal mischief and disorderly conduct against his client, Starla Ann Keck, 51. State police at Hazleton twice accused Keck of discharging a firearm inside a residence on Route 940 in Hazle Township during an argument with her boyfriend on Jan. 1, 2010.

District 26, 2010, to Judge Thohold Keck’s mas Shartrial. key dismissed the most serious charges – discharge of a firearm into an occupied structure and reckless endangerment – against Keck after a preliminary hearing on April 7, 2010. Charges of disorderly conduct and criminal mischief were held for county court. The Luzerne County District Attorney’s Office dismissed the initial case against Keck on May 19, 2010, and instructed state police to refile all the charges against her in an attempt to find another district judge for a second preliminary hearing. The charges were refiled against Keck on June 24, 2010, with no new allegations or evidence. In their request, prosecutors stated they wanted an impartial district judge because Sharkey was aware of the alleged incident. Palissery promptly objected to another district judge, arguing Sharkey conducted a proper review of the case “on (its) merits.” Sharkey heard the second preliminary hearing that ended in the same charges being dismissed and the same charges being forwarded to county court. Palissery in his attempt to have the case dismissed argued prosecutors failed to bring Keck to trial within a year, a violation of Rule 600, known as the speedy trial rule. He said prosecutors had one year from the initial filing date of the case on Jan. 26, 2010, to hold Keck’s trial. Judge Tina Polachek Gartley agreed with Palissery, saying, “This Court is compelled to use the date of original filing (Jan. 26, 2010) to calculate the run date for Rule 600 purposes.” First Assistant District Attorney Jeffrey Tokach said an appeal will be filed in appellate court.

A class(ic) case

Students dissect old murder case By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

FORTY FORT – Wyoming Seminary eighth-grade prosecutors presented their evidence: blood spatter patterns, blood typing from the murder weapon, DNA analysis, hair samples, fingerprints. Defense attorneys said this was no surprise: The suspect worked as a handyman for the murder victim, and apparently cut himself while fixing a broken window. Did the jury convict? Well, we’re not going to tell you right away. After all, the students spent six weeks on this “case” – based on a real murder more than a century ago – to get a taste of forensic science. A little suspense is warranted. For the fourth consecutive year, teacher Lisa Iskra turned her science class into a crime investigation unit. Along with analysis of fake blood and real fingerprints, 44 students also got a visit from the State Police Mobile Crime Lab. They compared “scene of the crime” evidence such as hairs and fingerprints to samples from the people known to have been around on the day Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Smith were bludgeoned to death with a hammer. It all culminated Wednesday in a mock trial – four trials, technically. Students were broken up into four groups, each taking turns presenting evidence to a jury composed of school staff. The students split into defense and prosecution, choosing how they will present

their evidence and make their arguments. The jury renders a verdict based on those presentations. Students read “depositions” from unavailable witnesses, then interrogated others on the stand. The star witnesses for the first period trial: the investigating “doctor” – Sujay Murthy, who was the lone student to say he might consider Lamont Cherry is taken back to prison after Thursday’s verdict amid television reporters asking for his comments about his trial.

CHERRY Continued from Page 1A

in Danville, where she died two days later. Cherry testified he did not know how McCloe was injured. He said he was putting clothes away in a bedroom and found her lying on a stair landing next to barbell weights. His defense team, William Ruzzo, Christopher O’Donnell and Michael Kostelaba, believe McCloe fell down two steps and struck her head on the barbells. Assistant District Attorney Michael T. Vough, who along with Assistant District Attorney Maureen K. Collins, prosecuted Cherry, said the guilty verdict shows the jury did not believe McCloe died from a fall. “Twelve people from Luzerne County disagreed with Mr. Cherry,” Vough said. “We stand by our investigation. From day one, we felt this wasn’t an accident. This was inflicted by Mr.

Cherry.” A family representative to McCloe declined comment, saying they want to wait until after Cherry is sentenced. Judge Tina Polachek Gartley said Cherry will be sentenced on Dec. 29. Vough said Cherry faces 20 to 40 years in prison. “Obviously, the jury looked at the medical evidence of the case and the overwhelming injuries this child suffered, and really rejected the defense claim of a fall. There was no evidence of a fall ever in this case,” Vough said. During his closing argument to jurors, Ruzzo said the police investigation found no evidence that McCloe was abused in the residence. “There were no marks on her arms or rib cage to suggest she was violently shaken,” the attorney told jurors. Cherry was acquitted by a jury in January of first-degree murder, which eliminated the death penalty, before Polachek Gartley declared a mistrial on other charges due to misconduct by a juror.

forensic science as a career – and the suspect Anton Geisler, played by Elizabeth Kulick, who was quite sure she does not want to sample DNA for a living. Which doesn’t mean she didn’t enjoy the exercise. “I really liked learning the process,” she said after the trial, a sentiment echoed by fellow student Jacqui Meuser, who giggled while admitting she had been a bit squeamish when working with the blood, even though she knew it was fake. Meuser, who played part of the defense team, had something else to smile about in the end. While Geisler was convicted in the real Long Island murder case in 1842, the Wyoming Seminary jury determined the evidence wasn’t strong enough, and acquitted him this time. Cue the “dum-dum” sound from “Law and Order.”

WILKES-BARRE – On Monday, state Rep. Eddie Day Pashinski said he and three other local legislators “felt compelled to act” after hearing stories of flood victims who needed help. One of those “stories” – Frank and Giovanna Kush of Plainsville – joined Pashinski at a press conference at Millennium Circle on the River Common to tell why they need help. “When we purchased our home in 2003, we were told we wouldn’t need flood insurance because the home only received 3 feet of water in the basement during Agnes,” Giovanna Kush said. “We later found out there was 3 feet on the first floor, so we bought flood insurance.” But they bought a basic policy with a low dollar amount because they didn’t expect another 100-year flood. The Kush home had 6 feet of water on the first floor during last month’s flooding, causing a great deal of damage and the loss of many items. “Now the thought of remodeling our house when the same thing could happen again next

year is hard to deal with,” Kush said. “We aren’t eligible for FEMA funding because we had flood insurance. We hope this proposed legislation will help us.” Responding to people like the Kush family, Pashinski, DWilkes-Barre, and state Reps. Phyllis Mundy, D-Kingston, Gerald Mullery, D-Newport Twp., and Mike Carroll, D-Avoca, have proposed four bills they say would bring relief to thousands of families and businesses affected by recent flooding. Pashinski said he will begin trying to persuade fellow legislators to support the package of bills. He said the amount of money needed from the state surplus fund, estimated to be around $550 million, would have to be negotiated with Gov. Tom Corbett. The four-bill package would help residents and businesses that are still waiting for their federal assistance or who suffered damage, but are not eligible for state or federal aid. It also would help local communities make changes to reduce damage from natural disasters in the future. Pashinski’s bill would provide low-interest loans to businesses for disaster assistance and individuals not eligible for PEMA or FEMA assistance.

Pittston approves borrowing $1.15M By WILLIAM BELL Times Leader Correspondent

PITTSTON – By a unanimous vote, city council on Wednesday approved borrowing $1,157,000 from the Landmark Bank. City Manager Joseph Moskovitz explained the note is a split borrowing with two separate series. Series A is a tax-exempt borrowing of $965,000 for miscellaneous capital projects at an interest rate of 3.5 percent. Series B is a taxable note, since it is a refunding of past city borrowing for pensions. Its interest rate is 6.5 percent. In other business, city engineer Joe Durkin of Reilly Associates confirmed the sewer project, which has had numerous change orders due to the nature of the project, is still within its budget. He expressed hope that at least some of the paving of affected roads will start before the asphalt plants shut down in November. Mayor Jason Klush added that some of the paving has been postponed intentionally to allow Pennsylvania American Water

to install new water lines, after which the water company will pave those affected streets at its own cost. This will save the city money and avoid the digging up of newly paved roads. He also explained that Kennedy Boulevard needs to fit into PennDOT’s schedule because it is a state highway. Klush announced plans for a Christmas tree lighting ceremony tentatively planned for Black Friday. He said he hoped to involve the Pittston Area Band and to make it a large event this year. The city also announced that the fire department is giving out free smoke alarms to those who need them. Council discussed the status of the Pittston Cemetery at the end of the meeting. Klush thanked those who have been helping to clean the cemetery, and stated the city would help where possible. However, he clarified that the city doesn’t own the cemetery. He said it is owned by an association that has not been very active in recent years.

OTHER OPINION: 9-9-9 TAX PLAN

Cain too simple to take seriously

IVEN ENOUGH space, we’re pretty sure we could come up with 999 reasons why Herman Cain’s 9-9-9 tax plan is a bad idea. But in the interest of preserving trees, let it simply be said that he who would be a serious presidential candidate owes the nation better than a tax plan that mimics a video game. In the 2003 version of SimCity, wherein gamers create and manage virtual cities, you pick your own tax rates. The default settings for commercial, industrial and residential tax rates all are 9 percent. In Cain’s plan, the rates for individual and corporate income taxes and a new national sales tax all are set at 9 percent. “Our game design team thought that an easy-to-understand taxation system would allow players to focus on building their cities and have fun thwarting giant lizard attacks,

rather than be buried by overly complex financial systems,” a producer for Maxis Software, a subsidiary of gaming giant Electronic Arts, told The Huffington Post. To be sure, America’s tax system is overly complex. Giant lizard attacks are rare, but America, too, would benefit from an easy-to-understand taxation system. But it should be fair and it should raise as much money as the system it replaces. Cain’s 99-9 system would do neither. He came out of the pizza business, where $9.99 is a pretty good deal. But at the national policy level, 9-9-9 is a very bad deal. It would further redistribute wealth from the poor and middle class to the rich. It would be insufficient to address the basic needs of the nation. It’s astonishing that anyone would take it seriously. St. Louis Post-Dispatch

MARK E. JONES Editorial Page Editor PRASHANT SHITUT President/Impressions Media

There’s nothing workable about Obama’s Jobs Act ALBERT EINSTEIN reputedly defined insanity as doing the same thing over and over while expecting different results. President Barack Obama already has added hundreds of billions of dollars to our national debt with his first stimulus package: $8,000 handouts to first-time homebuyers and $7,500 tax credits toward the Chevy Volt. His administration also dumped half a billion dollars of taxpayers’ money into the black hole known as Solyndra. Now he wants Congress to allocate even more money our country does not have to reinforce his string of failures. Mr. Obama’s inclusion of school construction in his American Jobs Act makes as much sense as investment in the horsedrawn carriage industry while the first Model T Fords began to roll off a moving assembly line. Performing arts such as theater, band and orchestra, along with team sports and shop classes, are about the only education-related activities that now require the physical presence of students, teachers and/or coaches. Everything else can be taught over the Internet, which eliminates not merely the capital cost but the overhead of everything but the gym, auditorium, music practice rooms, workshops and athletic fields. Internet schools also eliminate the cost of school buses and their fuel, along with the travel time of students and teachers. The money the teacher saves on fuel is effectively a direct after-tax addition to his or her salary, and the time he once spent commut-

MAIL BAG

WILLIAM A. LEVINSON ing is now his as well. Travel-restricting weather, of course, becomes irrelevant with the new technology, which also can save time and money for businesses and professional societies. There are no “snow days” on the Internet. Meanwhile, the American jobs waiting under the ground in Pennsylvania are the real thing as opposed to an “act,” because there is a genuine economic and national need for them. An entry-level hourly mining job pays twice the wage as a job in retail or warehousing, and the same goes for the chemical industry jobs that turn the coal into gasoline. The latter technology has been around since the 1920s, and Germany used it to fuel its war machines after the Allies strangled its oil supplies during World War II. The process breaks even with oil when the latter is between $30 and $50 a barrel; it is currently more than $70 a barrel, while demand can only increase as nations such as China and India industrialize. The United States does not need what the Obama administration calls “jobs” in failed green-energy ventures that were never economically viable, or in trading carbon credits as advocated by Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (“Cap and Trade Could be a Boon to New York,” Wall Street Journal, Oct. 21, 2009).

The United States needs a coal-mining counterpart of the giant steel worker Joe Magarac – a giant miner whose swift kick with a steel-toed work shoe can propel his oil-rich Middle Eastern counterpart back from where he came. The central obstacle to this commonsense objective is the Obama administration’s push for carbon taxes or cap-and-trade mandates, including backdoor carbon dioxide regulation by the Environmental Protection Agency. This agenda has little to do with genuine environmental protection and everything to do with special interests that have bundled millions of dollars in campaign contributions for Mr. Obama. The best way to create the high-wage jobs and achieve energy independence is to remove Mr. Obama and his fellow cap-andtrade supporter Sen. Bob Casey in November 2012, or even sooner in the Democratic Party’s primary. William A. Levinson, of Wilkes-Barre, is the author of “Henry Ford’s Lean Vision: Enduring Principles from the First Ford Motor Plant” and other books on quality, management and industrial productivity.

COMMENTARY

Mr. Obama’s inclusion of school construction in his American Jobs Act makes as much sense as investment in the horse-drawn carriage industry while the first Model T Fords began to roll off a moving assembly line.

’ve been meaning to write this letter for quite some time. I’m 83 years old, retired, worked in a factory all of my life, and I know what it is like to be out of a job with a wife, three kids and a mortgage payment of which to take care.

For the past couple of years, I have been reading about area businessman Robert Mericle and his development of CenterPoint East and West commerce parks. Every now and then I take a ride through these developments and am amazed at the size of those buildings and all of the cars parked around them. I don’t see the cars; I see all of the jobs that this man has created. I never once read where this man accepted money from anyone. He helped this area as much as the late congressman Dan Flood did, maybe more. And yet he’s under threat of going to prison for doing something he thought was perfectly legal. It is my misfortune that I never met this

Free-trade agreement no deal for workers

.S. Congressmen Lou Barletta and Tom Marino and U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey guarantee the American people, and workers in Pennsylvania, that the freetrade deal with South Korea, Columbia and Panama will not hurt our economy or take away jobs, as did the 1991 free-trade agreement. I lost my job of 30 years in 1991 to Mexico. It was all about more profit and greed. Why can’t our local delegation of federal officials open their eyes and see what happened in the past agreement. I not only lost my job, but also my benefits went out the window. Why can’t Lou, Tom or Pat talk to the people who were affected by the past agreement before 306,000 jobs are affected again in Pennsylvania? Joe McCabe Exeter

said the facilities under construction will be an asset to WilkesBarre, as the hospital’s emergency room is the busiest in the region and the only one currently open in the city. “I think what it means to the system is also what it means to the community; it is the provision of outstanding health care services for our community,” Catena said. The hospital broke ground on the project last October and anticipates opening the addition next fall. Hospital officials said construction of the building is proceeding on schedule, an impressive feat given that the area has received a near-record 28 inches of rainfall this year. Wilkes-Barre Mayor Thomas

Leighton said the project will benefit the city’s economy. “It’s projects like this that allow us to attract residents to our city, to attract businesses to our city,” Leighton said. “The city of WilkesBarre has invested in our city and it’s important that our community partners invest as well, and that’s what (hospital owner Community Health Systems) has done today.” The new addition will include a first-floor 30,000-square-foot emergency department that will double the emergency room space, as well as a new cardiovascular treatment center on the second floor with two new cardiac stress labs, three nuclear medicine procedure rooms and additional specialized diagnosis rooms. The building also will house some patient rooms on the third floor, and the hospital eventually plans to add five additional patient floors, though no date has

According to the minutes of the May 2011 committee meeting: “Once again concerns were raised over the design of the Intermodal. People walking all over the place with buses backing up, cars coming in the driveway where only LCTA buses should be coming in … no visible stop signs or crosswalks. But we were reminded it was not our design or desire to go in there. It is owned by Wilkes-Barre city. All drivers are asked to be as careful as possible and obey traffic rules.” Robb Henderson, authority operations manager and safety committee chairman, said a major problem is that “people just walk wherever they want to

walk” in the intermodal. He said there should be standing stop signs, not just stop signs painted on the ground, and he doesn’t think a design that requires buses to back up at all is safe. Henderson said the committee did not forward concerns to the city because they believe officials were already aware of the issues. Still, the committee continues to try to come up with ideas for safety improvements on the authority’s end. New procedure For now, he said, drivers have implemented a system of repeatedly stopping and blowing their horns for every two feet they back up after the initial blowing of the horn. “No place is going to be perfectly safe, but there are ways to make it safer,” he

said. Sal Licata, authority chairman, said board members and employees had concerns about the intermodal center “from the first time we saw it … but we really had no say in it. If you just walk through the place, you can see there are potential problems. That’s not criticism, it’s a fact.” Butch Frati, city operations director, said authority representatives were part of planning meetings years ago and were able to give input. He said he didn’t think free-standing stop signs were logistically possible and that the design of the building is standard in the industry. Frati didn’t think it was feasible to install railing or fencing to limit pedestrians to sidewalks and crosswalks because trash haulers need access to dumpsters on one section of sidewalk in the center.

to power.” She said she intended to celebrate his death with an expensive bottle of champagne. Like the relatives of many of those killed on Flight 103, Cohen was an ordinary citizen who became an activist on Libya, terrorism, international law and diplomacy after the attack. Some, like Cohen, even attended the trial in the Netherlands of Abdel Basset Ali alMegrahi, who was convicted as the mastermind of the attack. They were outraged in 2009 when he was released to Libya from British captivity in 2009 on humanitarian grounds as he was supposedly close to death — and have remained angry that he’s still alive two years later. To some of them, his return implied that Britain was siding more with Gadhafi than with the victims of the bombing. In London on Thursday, British Prime Minister David Cameron pledged assistance to Libya’s leaders as they work to form a new government. “Today is a day to remember all of Gadhafi’s victims,” he said. “We should also remember the many, many people who died at the hands of this brutal dictator and his regime.”

The project is part of $113 million in planned capital improvements. Other projects include medical offices under construction in Mountain Top and equipment upgrades.

installed last year, but he doesn’t believe the equipment or the installation, which cost the authority $96,000, is to blame. Equipment on buses, “especially electronic equipment, takes a beating” on local roads “and that can create problems. Wires can become loose, monitors can crack,” Strelish said. Although the camera systems are “an additional safety feature” and not required to operate when a bus is in service, Strelish said an authority mechanic will now be dedicated to maintaining and repairing them. He also said there have always been design-related safety issues at the intermodal center and they were brought up at Safety Committee meetings. Licata said the board would discuss System gets damaged whether members should receive safety He said the authority has had prob- committee minutes, which are not norlems with the systems since they were mally provided.

called Gadhafi’s death “the beginning of a new era in Libya. The Libyan people have sacrificed enormously over the decades of his tyrannical rule and now finally have the chance to determine their own fate in a democratic system.” “The United States should support the Libyan people in their efforts to consolidate democratic

institutions, but Libya must be responsible for financing its own recovery and reconstruction,” Casey said. Although the U.S. briefly led the NATO bombing campaign in Libya that sealed Gadhafi’s fate, Washington later took a secondary role to its allies. Britain and France said they hoped that his

death would lead to a more democratic Libya. French President Nicolas Sarkozy said it would allow Libyans “to free themselves from the dictatorial and violent regime.” There were confusing reports of Gadhafi’s capture and death, and questions remained over exactly how he was killed.

Arab broadcasters showed graphic images of the balding, goateed Gadhafi — wounded, with a bloodied face and shirt — but alive. Later video showed fighters rolling Gadhafi’s lifeless body over on the pavement, stripped to the waist and a pool of blood under his head. While he was still alive, the fighters drove him around lying on the hood of a truck, perhaps to parade him in public. One fighter held him down, pressing on his thigh with a pair of shoes in a show of contempt. Standing upright, he is shoved along a Sirte road by fighters who chanted “God is great.” Gadhafi appears to struggle against them, stumbling and shouting as the fighters push him onto the hood of a pickup truck. The battle for Sirte has been raging for more than a month. At one point, a convoy tried to flee and was hit by NATO airstrikes, carried out by French warplanes. France’s Defense Minister Gerard Longuet said the 80vehicle convoy was carrying Gadhafi and was trying to escape the city. The strikes stopped the convoy but did not destroy it, and then revolutionary fighters moved in on the vehicle carrying Gadhafi. One fighter who said he was at

Ali Aujali, the Libyan National Transitional Council’s ambassador to the U.S., told CNN that he didn’t think transitional leaders would want al-Megrahi returned to Scotland. “I saw the last photo of him. He is a very sick man,” Aujali said. Many families of the attack victims had longed for the dictator’s downfall — or death, which at times seemed imminent during the uprising in

Libya but took until Thursday to happen. “I never thought I would see the day this man, this coward, would no longer be part of the world population,” said Bert Ammerman, of River Vale, N.J., whose brother Tom died in the bombing. “I can say today with a great deal of satisfaction that my brother and the other 269 people that were massacred on Dec. 21, 1988, did not die in

vain.” But the dictator’s death does not close the book on the bombing for Kara Weipz, whose 20year-old brother, Syracuse University student Richard Monetti, was one of its victims. “Ultimately, the one thing I

hope is he had evidence on him,” said Weipz, who lives in Mount Laurel, N.J. “All the families really want to know the truth of how this happened. That has been our motto since 1988, and it remains our motto in 2011.”

He said educating bus riders on following signs for cross walks might be helpful. He said the authority could have an employee behind LCTA buses when they back out of stalls as Martz Trailways does for its buses. Authority Executive Director Stanley Strelish has said LCTA buses emit a loud beep when backing up and drivers also are required to blow the horn and check all their mirrors and a video camera that transmits an image of the area behind the bus before backing up. He initially thought Rehill was in a blind spot when the driver checked her mirrors and camera monitor but, since then, he learned that the monitor was cracked and not working that day.

GADHAFI tories on Obama’s watch and reinforces his own style of dealing with enemies without immersing the United States in war. Even skeptics offered congratulations. For Obama, the outcome allowed him to stand victorious in the Rose Garden on Thursday, taking note also of the death this year of prominent al-Qaida leaders at the hands of the United States. His message: The United States showed it can help rally an international campaign to protect Libyans and rid the world of a killer without a single U.S. troop dying. His vice president, Joe Biden, went further. “This is more of the prescription for how to deal with the world as we go forward than it has been in the past,” Biden said in New Hampshire, as the administration sought again to distance itself from an era of politics once dominated by the Iraq war.

the battle told AP Television News that the final fight took place at an opulent compound. Adel Busamir said the convoy tried to break out but after being hit, it turned back and re-entered the compound. Several hundred fighters attacked. “We found him there,” Busamir said of Gadhafi. “We saw them beating him (Gadhafi) and someone shot him with a 9mm pistol ... then they took him away.” Military spokesman Col. Ahmed Bani in Tripoli told Al-Jazeera TV that a wounded Gadhafi “tried to resist (revolutionary forces) so they took him down.” Fathi Bashaga, spokesman for the Misrata military council, whose forces were involved in the battle, said fighters encircled the convoy and exchanged fire. In one vehicle, they found Gadhafi, wounded in the neck, and took him to an ambulance. “What do you want?” Gadhafi asked the approaching revolutionaries, Bashaga said, citing witnesses. Gadhafi bled to death from his wounds a half-hour later, he said. Fighters said he died in the ambulance en route to Misrata, 120 miles from Sirte. Jonathan Riskind, Times Leader Washington correspondent, contributed to this story.

Word of Gadhafi’s demise was met joyously by members of Southern California’s small and scattered Libyan-American community. Most have lives in the U.S. and will not return to Libya, but all have friends or relatives there.

RANGERS GET EVEN

Dawgs shut out Holy Redeemer to qualify for District 2 Class 2A tourney. By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

LEHMAN TWP. – What a difference two weeks make. Fifteen days prior to Thursday night’s meeting, Holy Redeemer and Berwick battled to a stalemate. On Thursday at Lake-Lehman, Berwick dominated the Royals, winning 5-0 in the District 2 Class 2A play-in game to advance to the district tournament for the first time in more than 10 years. Berwick, which was the Wyoming Valley Conference Division III runBERWICK ner-up, will face Dallas (14-0), the undefeated top seed in the HOLY first round of the REDEEMER district playoffs when action begins next week. Berwick (11-5-1) and Redeemer also played in the same game last year with the Royals pulling out a tight contest then going on to shock Dallas in the playoffs. So Royals coach Sal Leggio gave some advice to Berwick coach Janet Henger after match. “I’ve known Dallas for a long time. I love (Dallas coach) Chris (Scharff),” Henger said. “I know how their team plays. They’re a very, very skilled team. To me and my team, it’s an honor to play Dallas. That’s how I feel in my heart.” Thursday’s match got off to a slow start with the first goal not coming until 3:14 remained in the first half off the foot of Richard Umana. He took a through ball from Andrew Woznock, split a pair of Redeemer defenders and beat the keeper for a 1-0 lead. After that, Henger had a message for her boys. “I think they were taking a siesta, but they woke up,” the coach said. “I said ‘You don’t look like a team with 96 (goals) and you don’t look like the number one team all season.’ And then they got it together. They got their rhythm together. They got their passing together.” Then the Dawgs’ speed took over to blow open the game. They scored four goals in the first 25 minutes of the second half and seemed to get to every 50-50 ball faster than the Royals. Umana connected two more times for the hat trick and assisted on one of Kyle Venditti’s two

The Texas Rangers’ Ian Kinsler runs home from third on a sacrifice fly by Josh Hamilton during the ninth inning of Game 2 of the World Series against the St. Louis Cardinals on Thursday in St. Louis.

Ninth-inning rally sends series to Texas tied By BEN WALKER AP Baseball Writer

ST. LOUIS — Josh Hamilton and the Texas hitters looked lost. They chased pitches that bounced, broke their bats and seemed totally overmatched. Until the ninth inning, that is. Down to their last three outs, and in danger of dropping into a serious World Series deficit, the Rangers rallied against St. Louis’ vaunted bullpen. Hamilton and Michael Young

2-1 on Thursday night to even the Series at 1-all. In a city excited by a Rally Squirrel, it was Groundhog Day — almost. For the second straight night, Cardinals pinch-hitter Allen Craig greeted reliever Alexi Ogando RANGERS CARDINALS with a go-ahead single. This time, Craig did it the seventh. In Game Series tied 1-1 1, his hit in the sixth sent the Cards Game 3: 8:05 p.m. Saturday, FOX to a 3-2 win. The Rangers, however, were lifted sacrifice flies in the ninth and Texas startled the Cardinals not done quite yet. Now, after a

travel day, they will host Game 3 on Saturday night. Matt Harrison is set to start for the Rangers against Kyle Lohse. “It would have been hard,” Hamilton said of possibly facing being 0-2. “We would have been comfortable going back to our place, having three games. They’re just like we are, never say die, til the last out is made. It makes it fun.” See SERIES, Page 5B

OPINION JIM LITKE

Irish eyes not smiling on one logo Three years after a tornado nearly wiped the town off the map, the last thing people in Chapman Kan. (pop. 1,393) need is another lesson about turning lemons into lemonade. They got it, anyway, when Notre Dame called and asked for its leprechaun back. It’s a long story with a few twists, one of those David vs. Goliath battles over a logo that pits a plucky high school or little league against a muscular sports “brand.” You already know who wins. But bear with us. Not just because there’s going to be more and more of those fights in sports going forward, but because the back story on this one is sadder than most. Chapman High has been calling its sports teams the “Fighting Irish” since 1967 and has every right to keep the name. But somewhere along the way, the school settled on a mascot that looked suspiciously like the trademarked original back in South Bend. Notre Dame first noticed the resemblance in 2006 and after some discussions at the time, Chapman High officials agreed to come up with a version of their own. But no one at the high school remembered to organize an art contest right away, and apparently the paperwork got shuffled into the wrong pile soon after. Two years later, the winds kicked up and blew all those piles — and just about everything else in town — away. On June 11, 2008, a half-mile wide tornado swept across Chapman, killing one person, injuring dozens, displacing 200 or so residents from their homes and damaging nearly every structure in its path. The rebuilding effort has continued in fits and starts ever since. A new high school finally opened in January, but over the summer someone at Notre Dame noticed the pesky leprechaun hadn’t changed so much as a whisker. But the Notre Dame official who got back in touch didn’t know about the storm, or how it put everything in Chapman way behind schedule. Because of the timing, what was intended as a nudge felt like a shove to the people on the receiving end. “When you get a letter from Notre Dame,” Chapman principal Kevin Suther said, “it gets your attention.” This one did, and we can report the Chapman mascot art contest is now in full swing. The poster states “no clip art” for submissions and voting is scheduled to end Jan. 20. The new mascot will be revealed at a Fighting Irish basketball game on Feb. 10. No word yet on what will happen to the logo that used to be in the center circle before district officials were forced to replace the damaged floor, not to mention all the other leprechauns lying around. No matter. Suther is pretty sure everyone in town — including more than a few of Chapman’s disgruntled alumni — will get over the flap soon enough. “If we’re not used to change, I don’t know who is,” Suther said. “We’ll bounce right back.” See LITKE, Page 3B

BULLETIN BOARD

Waldorf Hall has had just a superb year for trainer Jim Raymer and tonight he looks to get back on the winning track in the $29,000 Open Trot. The four-year old Conway Hall stallion has hit the board in 13 of 15 starts in 2011, with six of those efforts being victories. He has taken a career mark this season at the Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs of 1:53. Last week was his first start off a little bit of a layoff, and was really compromised by a slow pace, as Waldorf Hall came on late in the mile to grab the show dough against a super tough Hot Shot Blue Chip. Now with a tightner under his belt, look for driver Tyler Buter to point this Steve Organ-owned trotter back in the right direction, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s straight to the winnerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s circle in that 10th race feature.

Crestwood (6-1) at Wyoming Valley West (6-1) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Crestwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Greg Myers (38-42, 7th year); Valley Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pat Keating (19-10, 3rd year) Last Meeting: Valley West 32-18 in 2010 Scouting Crestwood: The Comets prepared for the game on a short week, having played Dallas on Monday. The 7-6 victory over the Mountaineers came with a price. QB Nick Aigeldinger injured his shoulder and according to Myers was unable to throw in the fourth quarter. Aigeldinger is to Crestwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s offense what Eugene Lewis is to Valley Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s. So itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essential he is as close to 100 percent as possible. He is also outstanding in the secondary and kicks. Special teams set up Crestwoodâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s only score by blocking a punt. The Comets also pooch and squib kick on nearly ever occasion, so the Valley West returners should have a light workload. Scouting Valley West: The Spartans bounced back from a loss to Dallas two weeks ago to make quick work of Hazleton Area. They scored four first-quarter TDs on the way to a 66-21 victory. As usual, QB Eugene Lewis ran the show, rushing for 155 yards and three TDs â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all in the first half as he watched the second half from the bench. RB Derrick Simms played well in replacing injured Tashawn Bunch, running and catching touchdowns. He replaced RB Tashawn Bunch, who missed the game with a shoulder injury. What To Expect: Crestwood would be an underdog with a normal week of preparation. But with only three days between games, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be difficult for the Comets to keep pace with Valley West.

Lake-Lehman (3-4) at Nanticoke (2-4) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Lehmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jerry Gilsky (10-8, 2nd year); Nanticokeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ron Bruza (6-10, 2nd year) Last Meeting: Lehman 43-26 in 2010 Scouting Lehman: Even though Lehman lost 37-23 to GAR last week, the defense did a fairly good job slowing down a very potent offense. The problem was when the Black Knights had GAR in third-and-long situations, they failed to make the stop. This has been a problem that has popped up throughout the season. The offense didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help matters as two interceptions were returned for touchdowns. The positive note was the running of sophomore FB Dustin Jones, who battered GAR for 167 yards and two TDs on 19 carries. Scouting Nanticoke: Nanticoke gave up a late touchdown in losing to Northwest 34-30. The TD came via air where the secondary had troubles for a third straight week. While the Trojans have seven interceptions in that span, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve also allowed 879 yards and 10 touchdown passes. The offense looked good in the first half behind the running of Brian Maslowski and Pat Hempel. However, it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do enough in the final two quarters. What To Expect: Despite the loss, Lehman remains in the D2-2A playoff race because the two teams itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chasing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mid Valley and Western Wayne â&#x20AC;&#x201C; have tough games ahead. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too much riding on this game for the Black Knights to falter.

Hanover Area (2-5) at Holy Redeemer (0-7) 1 p.m. Saturday The Coaches: Hanover Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ron Hummer (33-29, 6th year); Redeemerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Joe Ostrowski (0-7, 1st year) Last Meeting: Hanover Area 34-7 in 2010 Scouting Hanover Area: The Hawkeyes lost their fifth game in a row, losing 21-15 to Meyers. The offense turned over the ball five times against a defense that allowed 37 or more points in five games, including 86 in its last two. The special teams also allowed a kick return touchdown. RB Parrish Bennettâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s workload has been heavy the past two weeks. He has 71 of his 111 carries the past two games. The passing game runs hot and cold. Scouting Redeemer: The Royals continue to throw the ball more than any team with mixed results. WR Tom Cosgrove has a solid game in a 44-12 loss to Wyoming Area. However, Redeemer threw a season-high four interceptions. Redeemer allowed 300 yards rushing to Wyoming Area, marking the sixth time the Royals have allowed 300 or more yards on the ground. Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be hard pressed to stop another strong runner. What To Expect: Hanover Area to snap its losing streak in hopes it could propel the Hawkeyes toward an Eastern Conference playoff berth with plenty of help elsewhere.

Wyoming Area (5-1) at GAR (6-1) 7 p.m. Saturday The Coaches: Wyoming Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Randy Spencer (19-19, 4th year); Paul Wiedlich Jr. (17-3, 2nd year) Last Meeting: GAR 23-13 in 2010 Scouting Wyoming Area: Wyoming Area won its fifth straight in impressive fashion, downing winless Holy Redeemer 44-12. QB Nick Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien had a light workload running the ball for a third straight week, but still had 121 yards and three TDs. Freshman FB Jeff Skursky had a career-high 106 yards and could play a significant role since GARâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last two opponents exploited the Grenadiers between the tackles. The defense will face its biggest challenge since playing LakeLehman in Week 2. Lehman did a fairly decent job slowing down GAR QB Darrell Crawford last week by containing him in the pocket and forcing the 5-foot-9 senior to throw over his linemen. It will be interesting to see what tactics the Warriors use. Scouting GAR: GAR was able to convert on several third-and-longs to outlast Lake-Lehman 37-23 last week. QB Darrell Crawford rushed for 174 yards and three TD on 17 carries. Believe it or not, it was his worst performance in the last three games. The Grenadiers, though, arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a one-man show, and WR/DB Shaliek Powell is arguably the best skill guy after the quarterbacks of both teams. The defense had a pair of pick-6s and has now run back three interceptions for touchdown. DE Shakir Soto is the best defensive lineman on either squad. What To Expect: Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game was tied 13-13 when the momentum shifted to GAR after a Wyoming Area turnover while the Warriors were driving for a score late in the first half. This game could come down to one play like that once again.

Hazleton Area (3-4) at Coughlin (4-3) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Hazleton Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Jim Drumheller (3-4, 1st year); Coughlinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ciro Cinti (33-29, 6th year) Last Meeting: Coughlin 35-28 in 2010 Scouting Hazleton Area: The Cougars lost big again last week, falling 66-21 to Wyoming Valley West. The defense surrendered a season-high 447 yards on the ground and 570 overall. Like last season, stopping opponents has been Hazleton Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s main problem. Although RB Brian Campbell rushed for 96 yards, the running game once again struggled for a second consecutive week. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s averaging less than 4 yards a pop during that span. QB Chad Hoffman hasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t thrown an interception in four weeks, but the passing game has been inconsistent. Scouting Coughlin: The Crusaders won their second in a row as RB Joe Parsnik ran for a 233 yards in a 27-14 victory over Pittston Area. They have an 80-point lead in state points over Berwick for the fourth and final D2-3A playoff berth, but will have to probably need to win out to get the spot. Now, Parnsik and backfield mate FB Zac Evans, who had 109 last week, get to attack a defense allowing 222.1 yards rushing per game. That bodes well for Coughin, which has thrown 10 or more passes only twice. What To Expect: Coughlin will go straight at the Hazleton Area defense. If the Cougars can slow down the Crusadersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; running game, they have a chance. If not â&#x20AC;Ś

Pittston Area (2-5) at Berwick (4-3) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Berwickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gary Campbell (124-47-1, 13th year); Pittston Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Mike Barrett (2-5, 1st year) Last Meeting: Berwick 46-8 in 2010 Scouting Pittston Area: The Patriotsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; fifth loss in a row â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 27-14 to Coughlin â&#x20AC;&#x201C; likely ended any chance to make the D2-3A playoffs. They will need to win out to have a shot at an Eastern Conference berth. The running game had its second worst performance of the season, gaining just 123 yards on 27 carries. It was the first time this season Pittston Area didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a rushing TD. The offense produced just one TD â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a pass from Anthony Schwab to Dwight Houseman well after Coughlin had control. The other score came on a last-second interception return. Scouting Berwick: Perhaps Berwick was written off too early after a 1-3 start. After all, those losses came to teams that are a combined 18-3. The Dawgs have bounced back with three consecutive wins, albeit not against top competition. Still, they won all three big. Last week, Berwick dismantled Williamsport 43-0 for its second shutout in three weeks. The defense allowed just 80 yards. QB Jared Pierce rushed for four TDs, while RB Jeremy Freeman moved closer to a 1,000-yard rushing season. What To Expect: Berwick had a big game at home next week against Coughlin. But it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be that big if the Dawgs donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take care of business tonight. The win streak goes to four, but it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be as easy as the last three victories.

Pocono Mountain East (4-3) at Dallas (6-1) 1 p.m. Saturday The Coaches: PM Eastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Phil Dorn (15-42, 6th year); Dallasâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Ted Jackson (223-81-3, 27th year) Last Meeting: Dallas 31-28 in 2010 Scouting PM East: East is on pace to have its best season since going 6-5 in 2003. The Cardinals upset a very good Stroudsburg team 7-3 four weeks ago and enter off a 22-13 victory over East Stroudsburg South. East will grind it out behind the running of Devyn Popa, a sophomore who rushed for 164 yards and two TDs in the win. Charles Mann and Tyler Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Neil split the quarterback duties as starter Evan Fardella missed another game due to an injury. The Cardinals run the majority of their offense out of shotgun formation. Scouting Dallas: Dallas saw its 13-game, regular-season home winning streak end Monday with a 7-6 loss to Crestwood. Special teams were troublesome as a blocked punt set up the game-winning score. RB Jim Roccograndi, who had five 100-yard rushing games this season, was held to a season-low 31 yards. Meanwhile, QB, Ryan Zapoticky threw a season-high 26 passes. WR Shane Dunn, though, had another solid game catching the ball. He has 13 catches and three TDs in the last three games. What To Expect: Dallas has a short week to forget Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss and focus on East. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to shake off the loss because East can cause problems if given the opportunity.

Meyers (2-5) at Northwest (4-3) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Meyersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Corry Hanson (2-5, 1st year); Northwestâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Carl Majer (26-15, 4th year) Last Meeting: Northwest 14-7 in 2010 Scouting Meyers: Meyers pulled off a shocker last week, defeating Hanover Area 21-15. Despite Hanover Areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s struggles lately, few saw the Mohawks coming out victorious after mostly lackluster offensive performances this season. A key was QB Teaguen Labatch, who has thrown the ball well the past two weeks. He was 5-of-35 through the first five games, but is 16-of-27 with three TD throws since. Special teams also scored their first touchdown on an 85-yard kick return by Matt DeMarco. Scouting Northwest: With RB Tony Politz limited due to an injury, Northwest opened up the passing game in its 34-30 victory over Nanticoke. QB Gunner Majer was picked off three times, but also came up big when needed with four TD passes and 298 passing yards. WR Christian Foley had a career day with four catches for 149 yards and three TDs. Politz is expected to be at full strength, so the Rangers should be more balanced. The defense looked a lot better in the second half, and DB Jeramie Rittenhouse ended up with three picks. What To Expect: A better game than what was projected a few weeks ago, but Northwest wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let its D2-A playoff hopes fade with a John Erzar loss.

Tunkhannock (0-7) at Williamsport (2-5) 7 p.m. today The Coaches: Tunkhannockâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Rod Azar (0-7, 1st year); Williamsportâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tom Gravish (63-70, 12th year) Scouting Tunkhannock: Tunkhannock took a 7-0 lead last week, only to see Pocono Mountain West score 21 consecutive points on the way to a 28-13 victory. The Tigers were burned for two long TD passes. The defense failed to record a takeway and has just two turnovers in the last five games. The offense had its best game on the ground as Zack Edmundson had 91 yards and Josh Robinson had 90. But it was the sixth time the Tigers scored 13 or fewer points. Scouting Williamsport: After righting the ship two weeks ago with an overtime victory at Pittston Area, Williamsport turned in its worst performance of the season in a 43-0 loss to Berwick. The offense managed just 80 yards vs. Berwick and just 2 yards per play. The run defense gave up 374 yards on the ground, its worst effort of the season. The Millionaires have been shut out twice in the last four games and have reached 20 points just once in their last five games. What To Expect: Both teams have really struggles offensively, but Williamsport less so than Tunkhannock. That should be enough for the Millionaires to win.

Notre Dame no doubt believes the same should hold true for its reputation. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see. School spokesman Dennis

Brown said the university was only doing the same thing any business would to protect a trademark, and that it told Chapman High officials back in 2006 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; as well as this summer â&#x20AC;&#x201D; to change the leprechaun the next time it got around to remodeling its uniforms or gym.

John Erzar

Two years ago, a rival vendor notified Major League Baseball that a company manufacturing uniforms for a youth baseball league in the Chicago suburb of Tinley Park was making jerseys with the names of MLB teams stitched on the front. The same company had been doing it that

way for years, assuming that if it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t using the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s official logos, it was exempt. MLB lawyers convinced the owner otherwise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re taking a very generous interpretation of the law for themselves, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not a lawyer,â&#x20AC;? Dave Glenn, owner of

SportStation said at the time. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And when I got the letter and talked to a lawyer, he told me my pockets werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t deep enough.â&#x20AC;? The lesson in all this, beyond how to handle setbacks without the advice of counsel, is a familiar one: While sport is a game, at the upper reaches it is first, foremost

and forever a business. The folks in Chapman learned that the hard way, which is why their enthusiasm for the Fighting Irish will probably be confined to the town limits for a very long time. Jim Litke is a sports columnist for The Associated Press.

opportunity,” Spencer said. “(Run defense) is something Paul has expressed they have to shore up and work on.” Meanwhile, Wyoming Area’s defense will be facing its fastest opponent thus far. GAR receiver Shaliek Powell leads the division with 22 receptions and is tied in TD catches with five. After Crawford and O’Brien, he is arguably the next best overall athlete who will be on the field. Receiver-turned-running back Lucas Benton and Dwayne Wright have lessened the running burden on Crawford. Both teams also had questions on the line after losing a pair of all-state players to graduation – Julian Campenni for Wyoming Area and Dane Dudick for GAR. Although replacing such talented players is nearly impossible, both squads have found solutions. And those big guys could have as much bearing on the outcome as the skill players. GAR’s offensive line will have huge Christian Skrepenak and

Texas has not lost two straight games since Aug. 23-25. They sure waited a while to save themselves on this night that began as duel between starters Colby Lewis and the Cardinals’ Jaime Garcia. Ian Kinsler opened the ninth with a bloop single against closer Jason Motte. Next up was Elvis Andrus, whose tremendous play at shortstop kept the game scoreless much earlier. He singled to center, sending Kinsler to third, and when the relay throw got away for a moment, Andrus scampered to sec-

athletic Shakir Soto at tackles. Soto, who is drawing major college interest, will also be the best defensive lineman on the field. Veterans Joe Olejar and Ariel Peguero are the guards and freshman Zach Faust will snap the ball. Wyoming Area will mix and match its offensive line based on ond. Cardinals manager Tony La Russa, who’s been making all the right moves this October, brought in lefty Arthur Rhodes to face Hamilton. But the slumping slugger, slowed throughout the postseason by a groin injury, hit a solid fly ball that scored Kinsler and moved Andrus to third. La Russa went to his bullpen again, bringing in Lance Lynn to face Young.

defensive front alignments and whether the Warriors want to overload one side with either power blockers or quicker guys. Seniors Nick Bartoli, E.J. Driving Hawk and Jake Smith along with juniors Joe Erzar, Joe Taylor and Carl Zielinski and sophomore Tyler Resciniti will see time. The tight ends – GAR’s John Yashkus and Wyoming Area’s Trent Grove – are alike as both are solid blockers who can come up with the occasional catch. Last year’s game turned on a turnover. With the score tied 1313, Wyoming Area was at the GAR 17-yard line with 34 seconds left until halftime. A fumble flew high in the air and into the arms of Powell. After that, the Warriors managed just 74 yards and two first downs in the second half as GAR won 23-13. “The game is going to come down to who makes the fewest mental errors and the fewest turnovers,” Wiedlich said.

Penn State running back Silas Redd, shown in a game against Iowa two weeks ago, leads the Big Ten with 147 carries.

This was how it was supposed to be last year. With a difficult situation at quarterback, Penn State was going to rely on the running game to grind out opponents. After all, the Nittany Lions had a senior workhorse at tailback in Evan Royster, who would break the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s alltime rushing yards record during the 2010 season. But the workload wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t as heavy as expected for Royster, who finished with 208 carries in 13 games. Part of that was because true freshman Silas Redd was too talented to keep off the field, earning 77 carries himself. Now a sophomore and firmly entrenched as Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s top tailback, Redd is having as busy of a season as any runner in program history. Through seven games, Redd has 147 carries for 705 yards. The attempts are easily the most in the Big Ten thus far â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 20 more than anyone else. The yardage is first among tailbacks

in the conference and just 11 yards behind Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson for the league lead. Over a 13-game season that includes a bowl appearance, Redd is on pace for exactly 273 carries and roughly 1,309 yards. Only two other backs in Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s history have ever had more rushes in a single season â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Tony Hunt (277) as a senior in 2006 and John Cappelletti (286) in his Heisman-winning 1973 campaign. Despite being listed at just 5-foot-10, Redd said he has no problem handling that kind of wear and tear. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt pretty good,â&#x20AC;? Redd said Saturday after carrying it 28 times for 131 yards in a narrow win against Purdue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was quiet. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think I had (that many) today.â&#x20AC;? The Connecticut native has downplayed both his success on the ground as well as his high number of carries since the start of Big Ten season. See REDD, Page 7B

Spartansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Lewis hoping to see field quickly at PSU By DEREK LEVARSE dlevarse@timesleader.com

The stats for Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two rookie wide receivers have been modest. Allen Robinson and Bill Belton have only a few touches between them so far this season. Rest assured, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s at least one local who has noticed their contributions. Wyoming Valley Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Eugene Lewis will be joining them on the Nittany Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; receiving corps next season, and seeing two more wideouts play as true freshmen for Penn State has encouraged the Spartans standout. Lewis, rated as one of the top

receiver recruits in the country by multiple services, has said one of the reasons he picked Penn State was the opportunity to play a bit right away. The fact that Robinson and Belton are both expected to travel with the team and play in Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game at Northwestern reinforces that belief for Lewis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Exactly. It definitely shows that I have a great possibility of getting (early) playing time out there,â&#x20AC;? Lewis said last week after Valley Westâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s win over Hazleton Area. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think if I just work hard and just go out there and play like I play, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be fine.â&#x20AC;? Lewis has been much better

than fine in his senior season as the Spartans quarterback. Against the Cougars last Friday, he racked up 155 yards on the ground, 123 through the air and scored five total touchdowns. In the first half. His team up 46-7 at the break, he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to take the field after that in a 66-21 win. On the season, Lewis has 1,137 yards rushing (8.6 ypc) and 20 touchdowns in seven games while going 49-of-84 passing for 739 yards, with eight scores and seven interceptions. And for good measure, he has two two catches for 21 yards. Lewis took in Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

game against Alabama from the Beaver Stadium sideline last month and is hopeful to get back to Happy Valley for one of the Lionsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; final two home games against Illinois or Nebraska. Though he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have a date set yet, Lewis also expects to head to campus for his official visit after the season before formally signing with Penn State in February. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m still going to talk to the coaches about (the official visit),â&#x20AC;? Lewis said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to get back down there for a game soon. I definitely want to see them play.â&#x20AC;?

Beachum expected back Junior tailback Brandon Beachum should see the field against Northwestern, according to offensive coordinator Galen Hall, who directly oversees the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s running backs. Beachum, who started the year as the top backup to Silas Redd, has missed the past four games with a sprained foot. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s practiced all week,â&#x20AC;? Hall said Thursday on the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weekly radio show. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very good possibility Brandon will play along with Curtis Dukes and obviously Silas. Stephfon Green

has been back with us as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now were as healthy as we have been at our tailback position.â&#x20AC;? As for Joe Paterno, call it a game-time decision. Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 84-year-old-coach spent all of last weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game against Purdue up in the booth after aggravating his sore right hip a week earlier against Iowa.Team play-by-play man Steve Jones said a decision on where Paterno will spend the game wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be made until Saturday. Top receiver Derek Moye is confirmed to be out against the Wildcats as he recovers from a broken bone in his left foot.

In three conference games, Redd has paced the Penn State offense, topping 100 yards in wins over Indiana, Iowa and Purdue. Redd also saw 28 carries for a career-best 142 yards against the Hawkeyes after a career-high 29 carries for 129 yards vs. the Hoosiers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the thing heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done the last few games is heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s running really hard through contact,â&#x20AC;? assistant coach Jay Paterno said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;So there have been some situations when we may not have blocked exactly right, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s getting 10, 11 yards after contact. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been huge. I think there has been some second-and-8â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s where heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s pulled his way to a first down.â&#x20AC;? With leading receiver Derek Moye still out with a foot injury, Redd could see those type of numbers again in Saturdayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game at Northwestern. Redd said he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel any more pressure to perform without Moye in the lineup. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like that, but if thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what the coaches on offense wanted me to do, I was willing to do that,â&#x20AC;? Redd said. Still, Penn State coaches would like to find a way to ease the burden on Redd and prevent him from getting burned out for the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rough closing stretch of Nebraska, Ohio State and Wisconsin.

Penn Stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Silas Redd leads all Big Ten running backs with 705 rushing yards. Only Michigan quarterback Denard Robinson has more in the Big Ten with 716.

Jay Paterno, who splits playcalling duties with Galen Hall, said last week that the coaches â&#x20AC;&#x153;donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to run Silas 28 times a game if we can help it.â&#x20AC;? Joe Paterno also said itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s something to keep an eye on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve told the staff, in fact, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m worried about six or seven guys,â&#x20AC;? the Penn State coach said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we talked Sunday, I said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Make sure when you watch your kids, if they look tired, let me know and maybe we gotta start taking a little time off practice.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;&#x153;So I am concerned about

that. But not only Silas.â&#x20AC;? Upon leaving the program last season, Royster made a prediction that his all-time rushing record would not stand for long. After seeing what Redd could do as a rookie, Royster said he expected his understudy to surpass him if he also sticks around to be a three-year starter. Off the field, both Redd and Royster are laid-back and easygoing. But whereas Royster was also a fairly quiet guy in the huddle and on the sideline, teammates say Redd is much

The NCAAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Division I Football Licensing Task Force made numerous recommendations on Thursday involving oversight and certification of bowl games, including stronger academic standards that may make it tough for some schools to become bowl eligible. Co-chaired by Nebraska chancellor Harvey Perlman, the task force has proposed a ban from bowls for Division I teams that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t reach 930 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; out of 1,000 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; on the

Left tackle Quinn Barham credits that mentality for helping Redd grind out all of those extra yards. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The difference between Royster and Silas is that Evan wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really try and run you over,â&#x20AC;? Barham said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Silas is a hard-nosed. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go out there and get his jersey dirty. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to be known as a little back.

NBA LABOR DISPUTE

Journey back starts for veteran Williams

No progress is made after five-hour session

By TOM VENESKY tvenesky@timesleader.com

Having yet to play this season and hungry to get back to the NHL, there is little doubt that Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins forward Jason Williams is anxious to see his first game action tonight in Springfield. But when asked how he feels and how much he is looking forward to getting back on the ice, Williams opts not to talk about himself at first. Instead, Williams puts his team before himself. “I hope everything goes well and we come home with two wins this weekend,” Williams said after Thursday’s practice at Coal Street. “It’s points that we need.” And it’s Williams that the Penguins need. A veteran of 447 NHL games and one Stanley Cup championship, Williams gives the Penguins a legitimate scoring presence that could jumpstart an offense that has only generated 15 goals in the team’s first five games. If it weren’t for a groin injury incurred early in training camp, Williams might not even be in the AHL. The injury cost him a chance at cracking Pittsburgh’s roster along with the opportunity to show his stuff at the beginning of the season. Now that his chance will come this weekend, Williams is looking forward to putting the finishing touches on a game he hopes is good enough to take him back to the NHL. “I know when I’m 100 percent I can play at the NHL level,” Williams said. “I have confidence in myself that I’ll be back there, hopefully soon. It’s just a matter of staying healthy and doing the right things on and off the ice.” Williams has certainly done the latter while spending the last few weeks rehabbing and practicing in Wilkes-Barre. Head coach John Hynes praised Williams’ attitude and said he has been leading by example when it comes to his practice habits and work off the ice. “He’s even been great in team meetings as far as observations about our

game. He has good insights,” Hynes said. “He clearly understands how we want to play and he’s been a good veteran leader.” Part of Williams’ positive attitude comes from how well his injury has responded during a full week of high-tempo practices with the team. Hynes worked the team hard, he said, and if he wasn’t healed there’s now way he would’ve made it through the practices. “It was a good test for me this week,” Williams said.

Penguins 3, Canadiens 1 PITTSBURGH — James Neal scored his NHL-leading seventh goal of the season, and Marc-Andre Fleury stopped 27 shots in Pittsburgh’s victory over Montreal. Joe Vitale and Arron Asham added their first goals of the season for Pittsburgh. Neal, who had just one goal in 20 games for Pittsburgh last season after coming over in a trade from Dallas, moved into a tie with Toronto’s Phil Kessel for the NHL goals lead. Price stopped 29 shots for the Canadiens, who have lost four straight. Brian Gionta scored with less than 2 minutes to go to spoil Fleury’s bid for his 20th career shutout. Pittsburgh improved to 5-2-2. Bruins 6, Maple Leafs 2 BOSTON — Zdeno Chara, Milan Lucic and Tyler Seguin had a goal and two assists each and Boston handed Toronto its their first regulation loss. The Stanley Cup champions scored two power-play goals, matching their total in the first six games of the season, and won for the second time in

Ovechkin leads Capitals

PHILADELPHIA — Alex Ovechkin scored two goals and the Washington Capitals used a three-goal third period to beat the Philadelphia Flyers 5-2 on Thursday night. Ovechkin, the two-time league MVP, was off to a slow start with only one goal in the first five games. He ended that slump with goals in the first and third periods to lift the Capitals to a 6-0 start for the first time in team history. Washington had never started better than 4-0. The Capitals stormed into Philadelphia and roughed-up Ilya Bryzgalov, scoring three goals in a 2:54 span in the third. The game was billed as a matchup between Bryzgalov and Washington’s Tomas Vokoun. The duel never materialized. Vokoun was nearly flawless after allowing Claude Giroux’s early goal in the first. Mathieu Perreault, Roman Hamrlik and Joel Ward also scored for Washington.

The New York Knicks’ Roger Mason Jr. arrives for NBA labor talks with the owners on Thursday in New York.

NEW YORK — NBA owners and players ended negotiations after about five hours Thursday, and no further discussions were scheduled. “Ultimately we were unable to bridge the gap that separates the two parties,” NBA Deputy Commissioner Adam Silver said. “We understand the ramifications of where we are. We’re saddened on behalf of the game.” The two sides remained divided over two main issues — the division of revenues and the structure of the salary cap system. “Hopefully, we can get back to the table but certainly a tough day, a very tough day,” labor relations committee chair Peter Holt said. Previously each side had proposed receiving 53 percent of basketball-related income after players were guaran-

teed 57 percent under the previous collective bargaining agreement. Silver said the league formally proposed a 50-50 revenue split on Wednesday, and the union moved from 53 percent to 52.5 percent on Thursday. Asked whether the players would drop to 50 percent, Holt said he didn’t think it was that big of a jump, but that obviously the union did. Holt said the league would not go above 50 percent “as of today, but never say never on anything.” The first two weeks of the season — exactly 100 games — already have been canceled. The season was supposed to begin Nov. 1, but all games through Nov. 14 have been scrapped, costing players about $170 million in salaries. Commissioner David Stern has the flu and did not attend Thursday’s negotiating session.

NOTES · Williams is one of four Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton Penguins with more than 150 NHL games to his credit. He leads the way with 447 NHL contests, followed by Alexandre Picard (236), Ryan Craig (190) and Niko Dimitrakos (158). Hynes said there are some similarities between his four NHL veterans that he hopes rubs off on the younger Penguins.

Nathan Horton and Chara scored on power plays and Chris Kelly connected with 2:11 left in the period. Lucic, Patrice Bergeron and Seguin scored in the third. Toronto’s Mikhail Grabovski finished the scoring.

Pa. unemployment ticks up

The seasonally adjusted unemployment rate in Pennsylvania was 8.3 percent in September, up one-tenth from August but lower than the 8.5 percent in September 2010, the state Department of Labor & Industry announced Thursday. The national jobless rate in September was 9.1 percent. The labor force – the total of people working or looking for work – was up by 13,000 compared to one year earlier, and the number of people employed was 29,000 higher. The number of jobs within the state’s borders fell by 15,800 from August but was 48,300 higher than in September 2010.

IRS adjusts for 2012

The Internal Revenue Service is raising the maximum contribution that workers can make to their 401(k) pension plans without paying upfront taxes. The limit will rise by $500 to $17,000 next year. The increase is required by law to adjust for inflation. The ceiling hadn’t grown since 2009 because inflation had been too low to trigger an increase. The IRS also is making inflation adjustments to the personal exemption, tax brackets and other parts of the tax code for 2012. The personal exemption and the dependent exemption will grow to $3,800 each, a $100 increase from 2011. The standard deduction for married couples filing jointly will rise by $300 to $11,900, while the standard deduction for single people will increase by $150 to $5,950. Tax brackets will change, too. For married couples filing a joint return, the taxable income at which the rate grows from 15 percent to 25 percent will be $70,700, compared with $69,000 this year.

Long sentence for fraud

The former CEO of bankrupt soft drink maker Le-Nature’s Inc. received the longest prison sentence ever for a financial fraud in the 25-county western Pennsylvania federal court district, for the largest such crime ever prosecuted in that jurisdiction. Senior U.S. District Judge Alan Bloch sentenced Gregory Podlucky, of Ligonier, to 20 years in prison on Thursday after determining he defrauded investors, vendors and, mostly, lenders out of $684 million.

“Rents are pretty high and hot dogs and hamburgers aren’t real expensive … We put every penny we had into that place. We just don’t have that kind of money to throw into another place.”

Owners of businesses damaged by last month’s flooding have until Nov. 2 to apply for grants to help with recovery. Up to $120,000 could be available from a fund administered by chambers of commerce in Wilkes-Barre, Pittston and Hazleton. A first round of applications closed Wednesday. “We’ve gotten a bunch of applications,” said Donna Sedor, executive vice president of the Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber. “They’re from all over, Plains to Shickshinny.” The grants are available to any affected Luzerne County business and are not limited to chamber members. “We’re basically trying to help as many businesses as possible,” Sedor said.

Reid,whohasbeenincontact with the owners, said they told her they have no money to pay for upgrades to make the building meet city codes.

A yellow do not enter sign will remain until the owner addresses the code violations and the city inspects it.

WILKES-BARRE — The Happy Little Hot Dog Shop owners are sad. City code officers have revoked the business’s occupancy license because the owner of the building, VAR LLC, of Maple Glen, Bucks County, has been cited with having multiple code violations. There are no issues with the restaurant itself, said Michael Simonson, the city’s code officer. The business has been told it needs to be out of the building by Oct. 31, said co-owner Daphne Reid. So the last hot dogwillbeservedat123S.Main St. on Friday, Oct. 28. But it won’t be the last one served by the business. Reid said a popular hot dog cart will continue to operate throughout the winter, including late night hours on Friday and Saturday when the cart will be parked near Public Square from midnight until 3 a.m. to serve hungry folks leaving the downtown’sbarsormovietheater. Reid said also in the works is a hot dog truck that will travel the area next spring serving lunches. She said that hasn’t been finalized, but it’s a goal. Finding another storefront may also be a goal, but Reid said it’s a difficult one to attain for a variety of reasons. “Rents are pretty high and hot dogs and hamburgers aren’t real expensive,” she said. Plus, she and Jim Roberts, her husband and business co-owner, have put about $20,000 of their own money into the eatery’s dé-

The Luzerne County Flood Recovery Fund For Business was created with a $20,000 grant from The Luzerne Foundation.

WASHINGTON — The economy appears slightly healthier than many had feared it was a few weeks ago, raising hopes that it can end the year on an upward slope. A raft of data Thursday show layoffs are trending down to a sixmonth low and factories in the Mid-Atlantic are growing again after contracting for two months. Nevertheless, home sales fell and the housing market is expected weigh on the economy deep into 2012. The outlook for the final six months of the year has improved from August, when many thought the economy was at growing risk of falling back into a recession. Other recent reports showed hiring picked up slightly in September and consumers boosted their spending on retail goods by the most since March. Most economists now expect modest growth for the rest of this year. Still, they caution that it’s unlikely to be strong enough to significantly lower the unemployment rate, which has been stuck near 9 percent for more than two years. And a recession in Europe, which many now predict, could slow growth in 2012. Macroeconomic Advisers forecasts the economy will expand at an annual rate of 2.7 percent in the July-September quarter, and 2.6 percent in the final three months of theyear.Thegovernmentissuesits first estimate for third-quarter growth on October 27. “A recession now looks a lot less likely, but economic growth is still going to be pretty weak,” said Paul Ashworth, an economist at Capital Economics. Job growth is critical to a housing recovery, which many economists say could be years away. The number of Americans who bought previously occupied homes fell to a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 4.91 million homes, the National Association of Realtors said. The pace matches last year’s sales figures, which were the worst since 1997. Economists say sales need to be closer to 6 million to be consistent with a healthy housing market. Employers have added an average of only 72,000 jobs per month in the past five months. That’s far below the100,000 per month needed to keep up with population growth. NATURAL GAS $3.63

The National Weather Service forecast for this coming winter is heavily based on a phenomena now occurring in the tropical Paciﬁc called La Nina. This is when the water is colder than normal which can divert storm tracks. But mostly the northern and southern states are impacted and not so much here where we live. So for now the call is for us to have normal temperatures and near average snowfall. A phenomena called the Arctic Oscillation has a much greater impact on our winters. Should it be in the negative phase this winter, watch out! The snow could get deep around here. - Tom Clark
