Otha Derrick Green Jr. was hospitalized for seven days after he was shot by law enforcement officers last week. An hour after he was released from the hospital Tuesday, he was dead, and that hour has left those who knew Green with unanswered questions. “I don’t see how you could take him from the hospital at 2

and he was dead at 3,” said Ray Johnson, Green’s pastor at Salvation Christian Center in Wilkes-Barre. Green “If he was that weak, he shouldn’t have been taken from the hospital.” Luzerne County Correctional Facility Warden Joseph Piazza

said Green, the man shot by police last week outside a day care center in Wilkes-Barre, died at 3:34 p.m., about an hour after he was discharged from Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center and taken to prison. Piazza said Green, 29, of Beatty Street, Wilkes-Barre, arrived at 2:30 p.m. at county prison, where he was met by prison guards and medical staff.

He was taken to the prison’s medical ward for a health assessment, a standard procedure for all incoming prisoners. “That’s when everything seemed to happen,” Piazza said. “He started to become unresponsive, and our nurses started CPR, called 911 and then he was transported over to the General Hospital.” See GREEN, Page 4A

An Edwardsville Fire Department official said the bruin was sighted on Laurence, Cook, Church and Garfield streets throughout the day, but authorities lost sight of it in the woods off Vine Street. It was still on the loose Tuesday night. Officers from the borough police and fire departments and the Pennsylvania Fish and Game Commission responded to the bear sighting. No one was injured, though school students waiting to go home had to wait on school buses until the bruin left the area, according to firefighters.

HARRISBURG – Local state Democratic elected officials are seeing red over the proposed realignment of legislative districts. Red as in the Republican majority in the state House and Senate who have proposed a plan to make districts more GOP-friendly to candidates and incumbents. State Rep.

Teacher proposal updated Virtual town hall concerns revamping state-mandated teacher evaluation process.

By MARK GUYDISH mguydish@timesleader.com

KINGSTON – About 75 local teachers, principals, superintendents and school board members joined a crowd well in excess of 1,000 statewide in a virtual “Town Hall” meeting Tuesday for an update on a plan to radically revamp the state-mandated teacher evaluation process. The state is scrutinizing results from a small pilot program last year that tested and tweaked a system that includes various measures of student academic achievement as 50 percent of the total teacher rating. A much larger pilot project will be conducted this year, involving about 120 “Local Education Agencies” – which includes school districts, career centers, charter schools

and intermediate units created to provide various services to schools regionally. The Luzerne Intermediate Unit hosted the local gathering in its Kingston headquarters, where attendees heard from those who had participated in the first pilot. Admitting she was initially apprehensive, Pittsburgh teacher Allison McLean said she found the new system to be “objective and based on evidence. I saw a noticeable difference in my teacher practices.” McLean and others stressed that, done right, the system helps teachers and administrators collaborate. Pennsylvania Education Secretary Ron Tomalis repeatedly stressed the goal is to improve “teacher growth” and make more effective teachers, not to penalize them. Research has shown that, after parent education level and family income, teacher effectiveness is the most influential factor in shaping student success. Pittsburgh Federation of

Teachers President Nina Esposito-Visgitisconcededitcanbehard to build trust. “We have to get past the perception that teacher input means the administration will listen politely and then do what they want to do.” Tavis Bogue, a teacher from suburban Pittsburgh, said teachers were “eager to continue the cooperation” that was started by piloting the new system. State Deputy Secretary of Elementary and Secondary Education Carolyn Dumaresq said the observation part of the system is very specific in what a person must look for, with 22 components under review. One goal of the second pilot is to see which of those deserve greater focus. The second phase is also designed to figure out ways to evaluate teachers in subjects or grades that are not tested, and ways to measure the impact of professionals who don’t teach but still can affect student success, such as guidance counselors.

Butler Twp. meeting addresses F potential future drilling concerns Solicitor says area sits on Utica Shale formation that could be tapped in future. By STEVEN FONDO Times Leader Correspondent

BUTLER TWP. – Residents filled the community center on Tuesday night for a public hearing to discuss issues related to natural gas drilling in the township. The community meeting was a joint hearing of the township supervisors, zoning board and planning commission and was convened in response to a number of petitions by residents aimed at restricting gas drilling in the municipality. Township Solicitor Don Karpovich said the township has not received any proposal from energy exploration companies and no drilling permits have been issued. He said the meeting was being held to proactively discuss possible changes to the township’s 30-year-old zoning ordinance regarding such drilling. “There is no Marcellus Shale gas under Butler Township,”

Karpovich said. “However, we are sitting on the Utica Shale reserve (a much deeper reserve) and the technology to access those deposits will make that possible in five to seven years.” A number of township residents took to the podium to oppose any potential future drilling and to expound on the quality of life in the Conyngham Valley. Many citizens were concerned with the water quality, traffic and road degradation, which has been seen in areas where there is Marcellus Shale drilling. “I grew up in Butler Township. It’s a wonderful place to live and raise a family,” said John Schwear of Drums, who opposed any future drilling efforts. “And I want my children to grow up here. To ensure that, we need to protect our roads, our schools, our farms and our way of life.” Township officials said they would consider all residents’ concerns as they discuss possible changes to the zoning ordinance.

Gas facility arguments conclude Dallas Twp. zoning hearing board will decide on Chief Gathering application Dec. 7. By SARAH HITE shite@timesleader.com

DALLAS TWP. – The final witness testified and closing arguments were presented Tuesday at a zoning hearing for Chief Gathering LLC’s application to build a natural gas metering station off Hildebrandt Road. The zoning hearing board will decide on the application at 6 p.m. Dec. 7 in the Sandy & Marlene Insalaco Hall at Misericordia University. Sonia Maslowski, of Fairground Road, said she had concerns about worksite safety, property devaluation, traffic and the effect an influx of workers from outside the area would have on her family and property located about 600 feet from the proposed site.

tables. “God blesses me, so I’m trying to bless others because of the recent disasters, with the flooding and stuff,” Gallagher said in an interview at Schiel’s on Tuesday. “I mean, I see the news articles all the time in the paper and on the TV how these people have nothing. It touched me, so I’m trying to give something to them, especially around Thanksgiving. They don’t have anything for their plates. I’m trying to give it to the needy, the most needy people I can find,” Gallagher said. Will the raffle accomplish that? “Probably not, but that’s why I’m trying to get in touch with the soup kitchen to donate some there. Then

Maslowski said her residence is the closest in proximity to the site, a fact that she felt Chief’s paid expert witnesses “may have elected to ignore.” She said the only safe option is to move the site to an area where there are fewer residences and no schools. Chief’s application for a special exception outlines the details of a metering station that would be about 1,300 feet from the Dallas School District campus. The meter would measure gas flowing through a not-yet-built Chief pipeline that will tap into the Transco interstate pipeline that runs through the township. Attorney Mark McNealis, who represents the Maslowski and Dottor families, said in his closing arguments the application doesn’t apply to the criteria for special exceptions because he felt the type

of activity was already addressed in the zoning ordinance. He said the metering station would fit into the definition of heavy industrial use, which would deem the activity be moved to an industrial zone. Chief’s facility would be in an agricultural zone. Attorney Tim Kelly, who represents the Dallas Parents-Taxpayer Group composed of several citizens, agreed with McNealis and also said the activity is hazardous to the community and the health of its citizens. Chief attorney Ken Komoroski said that while Chief has taken part in the proceedings under protest, the company has tried to address all concerns raised, especially safety issues. He said the company heard from opposing witnesses who “mischaracterized testimony” and “misstated facts as presented,” and he hoped the board would not be “swayed or deterred” by those witnesses in its decision.

on (Nov. 20), when I’m giving away the turkeys, I plan on hearing stories about ‘Why would you need this turkey so bad for this holiday?’ And I’m going to give it to the most needy ones I can find,” he said. But in a county of 320,000 people, isn’t he afraid of being overwhelmed with stories of need? “I figure I probably will be, but God will pull me through it. He’ll lead the way,” Gallagher said. Gallagher said he’s not rich, “but I’m well endowed enough to where I can make this donation. I’ve just been saving up and saving up and, actually, I have enough. And with the recent disasters, it affects me,” he said. His inspiration? “God blesses me and my family. I’m not saying I’m rich, by any means. But I’m blessed for having what I have and there are people out there who have less than I have

or don’t have anything. My inspiration is God himself,” Gallagher said. Raised Catholic and an altar boy at St. Patrick’s Church as a child, Gallagher said he had no direction in life 18 months ago. “I was just living it day by day, and then I guess you could say I was born again. Now I have the knowledge and the power. God’s on my side and he blesses me. If you knew me before as opposed to after, you can just see what God does for people. I mean, it’s amazing,” Gallagher said. “I wish everyone would just soak that in and help others. This world would be so much better instead of people only caring about themselves. They’re so stuck on themselves and so ignorant, it’s sad. It’s sad to see that all over. What can you do, though? I just try and do my best.”

Section of old Eighth Street Bridge dropped unexpectedly into Susquehanna River on Oct. 22

Collapsed bridge section’s removal begins

SCRANTON

By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

JENKINS TWP. – Crews from Nyleve Bridge Corp. on Tuesday began cutting apart the remnants of the old Eighth Street Bridge that collapsed into the Susquehanna River. A causeway 8 feet high, a makeshift road, was built into the river from the Jenkins Township side for heavy equipment to reach the collapsed structure. Instead of oxy-acetylene torches to cut the metal truss, crews are using shears to slice through the metal, said Michael Taluto, district spokesperson for the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation. The 111-year-old camelback truss bridge closed earlier this year when a new concrete bridge opened. The two

bridges are only feet apart. Two of the four trusses were demolished with dynamite in July. A truss that spanned the middle of the river collapsed in the early morning hours on Oct. 22. PennDOT District Press Officer James May said inspections after the collapse found the new bridge was structurally sound. Removal of the two remaining trusses was delayed because of high river levels from back-to-back tropical storms in late August and early September. Anticipated completion of the removal of the collapsed truss is Friday, weather permitting. Once the truss is removed, AIMEE DILGER/THE TIMES LEADER the next step will be to implode what remains of the The fallen section of the old Eighth Street Bridge is being cut apart and all of it should be restructure. moved from the Susquehanna River by Friday, according to James May of PennDOT.

Luzerne County officials have decided to ask the Pennsylvania Insurance Commissioner to investigate discrepancies in information provided by the county’s insurance broker, Pittstonbased Joseph J. Joyce Associates Inc., county Controller Walter Griffith said Tuesday. Griffith said the recommendation to seek an investigation was made by DGK Insurance and Financial Services of Factoryville, the county’s insurance adviser. DGK representatives met with Griffith and other county officials Tuesday, the controller said. Commissioner Chairwoman Maryanne Petrilla referred comment to county Solicitor Vito DeLuca, who said he cannot confirm or deny that an investigation will be requested. Griffith said he and other county officials want the state to determine what, if any, action should be taken over documents submitted by the Joyce firm. Companies that bid on county insurance must carry at least $5 million per claim in errors-and-omissions in case the county has a problem with work performed by the broker. The Joyce firm supplied the county with a certificate of liability insurance last year and this year stating that it had the $5 million coverage through Darwin Select Insurance Co., but Griffith said he obtained documents from Darwin that indicate Joyce Associates never purchased that much coverage.

Powell sentencing earlier

The time of the sentencing for attorney Robert Powell, who admitted paying kickbacks to two county judges as part of the “kids-for-cash” scandal, has been changed from 10 to 9 a.m. Friday. Powell, who formerly co-owned the PA and Western PA Child Care juvenile detention centers, will appear before U.S. District Judge Edwin Kosik at the federal courthouse in Scranton. Powell Powell pleaded guilty in July 2009 to failing to report a crime and being an accessory after the fact to tax evasion. Prosecutors say he paid $772,500 in kickbacks to former Luzerne County judges Mark Ciavarella and Michael Conahan out of fear they would stop sending juveniles to his detention facilities if he refused. Ciavarella, who was convicted of 12 charges related to the scandal, was sentenced in August to 28 years in prison. Conahan, who pleaded guilty to racketeering conspiracy, was sentenced in September to 171⁄2 years in prison. LUZERNE COUNTY

Controller Walter Griffith says Joyce Associates data will be probed.

Griffith said Darwin provided paperwork showing that Joyce Associates had $1 million in errors-and-omissions liability insurance per claim from Jan. 15, 2010, to Jan.15, 2011, and has $3 million in coverage from Jan. 15, 2011, to Jan. 15, 2012. A representative of Joyce Associates told Griffith Monday that two other companies affiliated with Joyce Associates -- Joyce Jackman & Bell LLC and Joyce Haggerty Bell Insurance Group LLC -- carry an additional $8 million in errors-and-omissions insurance that could be accessed by the county. Griffith said he and other county officials do not believe these other policies comply with the county requirement. The other companies were not hired by the county to provide insurance, and the additional policies and companies were not specified in documentation supplied to the county when the company received insurance awards, the controller said. Representatives of Joyce Associates have declined comment. Times Leader reporter Sheena Delazio contributed to this report.

Piazza said Geisinger gave Green the OK to be discharged, and that only the hospital can determine when a patient is healthy enough to leave. “The hospital discharges,” Piazza said. “We don’t call up and say, ‘OK; we’re ready; let him go.’ They’re the professionals; they make that decision.” Geisinger spokesman Matthew Van Stone said Green’s discharge would have been approved by a physician, certifying he was healthy enough to leave the hospital. “He would not be discharged if he was not in the condition to do so,” Van Stone said. “There are processes in place and he would need physician sign off if he were

to be discharged.” Van Stone said he could not comment on Green’s condition except that “if he was released, it would mean that he was in the condition to do so.” Piazza said Green was conscious and could walk, though slowly, when he arrived at the prison. Green had been struck by seven bullets, including one that touched his liver, from a volley of gunfire from two Wilkes-Barre police officers and a Luzerne County deputy sheriff last Tuesday at the corner of North Washington Street and George Avenue. More than a dozen shell casings were recovered from the scene. The shooting took place outside Kidz Korner Child Care Learning Center, a Turkey Hill and InterMetro Industries, across the street from Hollenback City Golf Course. Green was allegedly carrying two “replica firearms” that officers thought were actual weapons, according to arrest papers. State police allege in the criminal complaint that he discharged one of the weapons at officers and

that officers returned fire. He then fled towards the day care but turned and fired again, at which point officers fired again. In a hospital bed Thursday he was charged with three counts each of aggravated assault and simple assault, and six counts of terroristic threats. Luzerne County District Attorney Jacqueline Musto Carroll said the charges against Green will be withdrawn, but his death does not impact her ruling that officers who shot Green were not at fault. “It’s a shame that he died,” Musto Carroll said. “But that does not affect my ruling that the shooting was justifiable.” Musto Carroll said she will wait for the results of the autopsy to determine whether any further investigation is warranted in the

S case. Piazza said the prison will review security tapes of Green’s arrival and time at the prison. Green’s surviving relatives expressed anger over his death Tuesday and said they want more information from authorities about why he was shot last week and what happened between his discharge Tuesday and death an hour later. Green’s wife, Vilena Green, and father, Otha Green Sr., said they had not had contact with Green since the shooting. They tried to visit him at the hospital but were turned away by security, they said. “They’ve got to let us know something, because they held him from us the whole time. They wouldn’t let her see her husband,” Otha Green Sr. said. “…I came all the way from Philly to see my son. I never got to see him.” The Greens said they are considering filing a lawsuit over Green’s death. “They killed him, that’s the only thing I’ll say,” Vilena Green said. “The hospital, the police and the warden.”

HATCHET Continued from Page 3A

Tabit’s mother, Catherine Olson, also spoke Tuesday, telling Lupas that her daughter was known as “Sissy Girl” and that she may be gone but will never be forgotten. Olson also said even though Stone took her daughter from her, he can never take her away from the hearts of her family members. Lupas said Stone’s actions did not only cause one life to be lost, but also sent Stone to prison for life and forever changed the lives of members of both families. A jury of seven men and five women delivered its verdict after a week-long trial in September. Stone testified in his own defense that he tried to rekindle a broken relationship with Tabit, but those at-

tempts were unsuccessful until Oct. 22, when Tabit agreed to spend the weekend with him. The two got pizza in Wilkes-Barre and went shopping, and she stayed the night. Stone brought Tabit to her Kingston home the next day and returned to pick her up later that night. He watched a movie while Tabit played cards on the computer. A conversation began, Stone said, with Tabit asking to borrow $2,000. He said he ignored Tabit’s request, and she went to make dinner – shrimp and beans. Tabit slapped Stone after he made a remark about one of her “other boyfriends” funding the money, when he realized Tabit was on the floor. Stone said the details of what occurred after Tabit slapped him are vague, and he didn’t remember exactly what happened, only that he must have hit Tabit.

Cain says he never changed his story

Presidential candidate Herman Cain said Tuesday he never changed his story about sexual harassment allegations against him in the 1990s. In a Tuesday interview, Cain told Headline News that he didn’t contradict himself when he said a day earlier that he was unaware of a settlement between a woman and the National Restaurant Association, where he worked at the time, over allegations against Cain. He said he was aware of an agreement, but not a settlement. Cain said -- quote -- “So it looked like I had changed my story. I didn’t change my story.” In a series of appearances Monday, Cain first insisted he was unaware of any financial arrangements between the trade association and his accuser. On PBS “NewsHour” later that night, Cain acknowledged he was aware of an “agreement” but not of a settlement.

Socialist lawmakers rebel, world markets dive after PM decides to let public vote on European debt deal

Gov’t teeters over referendum decision

By ELENA BECATOROS Associated Press

The sun god be praised

ATHENS, Greece — Socialist lawmakers in Greece revolted Tuesday over their prime minister’s surprise decision to hold a referendum on a European debt deal, threatening the very survival of his embattled government. Prime Minister George Papandreou’s announcement unleashed political and market turmoil around Europe and the world, raising fears his government would fall, Greece would default on its massive debts and the 17-nation eurozone could break up. The reaction in the markets was brutal, particularly in Europe. The euro sunk and borrow-

ing costs rose for Italy and Spain, two other troubled eurozone members. European officials and analysts expressed dismay over being blindsided by the move after they thought a deal had been agreed upon to solve the continent’s debt woes. “While it may be the democratic thing to do ... what happen if Greece votes ‘No’?” said Michael Hewson, analyst at CMC Markets. “The resulting fallout could well result in a complete meltdown of the European banking system and throw Europe into turmoil.” A top European official warned that if Athens were to go ahead with the referendum, it

might not get the bailout funds it needs to avoid bankruptcy in two weeks. Jean-Claude Juncker, who chairs eurozone ministerial meetings, said planning a referendum “is a dangerous decision” that could put at risk Greece’s next bailout loan of $11 billion. The Socialists have been vilified by an increasingly hostile public and a vote would let them pass the responsibility for the country’s fate onto the Greek people themselves. But it was not even clear Papandreou’s government could last long enough for the proAP PHOTO posed vote to take place — or even last until a confidence vote Protesters dressed as prisoners demonstrate against austerity on Friday. measures Tuesday outside the Greek parliament in Athens.

Future holds more extreme weather, climate report says Report says the changes could eventually grow so severe that some locations become ‘increasingly marginal as places to live.’

By SETH BORENSTEIN AP Science Writer

WASHINGTON — For a world already weary of weather catastrophes, the latest warning from top climate scientists paints a grim future: More floods, more heat waves, more droughts and greater costs to deal with them. A draft summary of an international scientific report obtained by The Associated Press says the extremes caused by global warming

could eventually grow so severe that some locations become “increasingly marginal as places to live.” The report from the Nobel Prizewinning Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change marks a change in climate science, from focusing on subtle shifts in average temperatures to concentrating on the harder-to-analyze freak events that grab headlines, hurt economies and kill people.

“The extremes are a really noticeable aspect of climate change,” said Jerry Meehl, senior scientist at the National Center for Atmospheric Research. “I think people realize that the extremes are where we are going to see a lot of the impacts of climate change.” The final version of the report from a panel of leading climate scientists will be issued in a few weeks, after a meeting in Uganda. The draft says there is at least a 2-in-3 prob-

ability that climate extremes have already worsened because of manmade greenhouse gases. Experts on extreme storms have focused more closely on the increasing number of super-heavy rainstorms, not snow, NASA climate scientist Gavin Schmidt said. By the end of the century, the intense, single-day rainstorms that typically happen once every 20 years will probably happen about twice a decade, the report said.

Painkiller overdose deaths triple in decade

A new government report shows the number of overdose deaths from powerful painkillers have more than tripled over a decade. Prescription painkillers such as OxyContin, Vicodin and methadone contributed to the deaths of nearly 15,000 people in 2008. That’s more than three times the 4,000 deaths in 1999. According to a report released Tuesday by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly 5 percent of Americans ages 12 and older say they’ve abused prescription painkillers. The highest rate of abuse was reported in Oklahoma, while the lowest was in Nebraska and Iowa. Fatal overdoses were more likely in men and middle-aged adults. HARRISBURG

Texting-while-driving ban OK’d by Senate

Pennsylvania is getting set to join more than 30 other states that ban all motorists from texting while driving. The state Senate on Tuesday voted 45-5 to approve an amended version of a bill it easily passed in June. The state House overwhelmingly approved the bill on Monday. Gov. Tom Corbett is expected to sign the bill. The bill would make texting behind the wheel a primary offense so that police can pull over motorists for that violation alone. The penalty is $50 but police may not seize the cell phone or other device. Talking on a cell phone without a hands-free device remains legal for motorists.

Claire K. Walsh October 28, 2011

laire K. Walsh, 94, of 889 Fairground Rd., went to Heaven on Friday, October 28, 2011 at Buffalo Valley Lutheran Village, Lewisburg. She had resided in Kingston for most of her life. Claire was born in Wilkes-Barre, August 29, 1917, the youngest child of the late Reuben and Mayme (Senior) Kintzer. In 1947, she married John J. Walsh, who passed away in 1974. Claire graduated from Kingston High School and Wilkes-Barre Business College. Prior to her marriage, she was employed by the former Issac Long’s Department Store, Public Square, WilkesBarre.

She was an active member of the Church of Christ Uniting in Kingston since its inception and prior to that the Kingston Presbyterian Church for over 50 years. Claire looked forward to annual summer trips to the seashore as well as visiting U.S. historical sites with her family.

In her earlier years, Claire enjoyed playing both lawn and board games, as well as playing golf with her husband. Claire served on a variety of church committees, and was an active community volunteer with Meals on Wheels and other worthwhile organizations. A reflection of Claire Walsh’s life would mirror a heart for helping others and a gift of making individuals feel special. She was preceded in death by a brother, John Kintzer; and sister, Mae Evans.

When I am gone, release me, let me go. I have so many things to see and do. You mustn’t tie yourself to me with tears, be happy that we had so many years. I gave you my love, you can only guess how much you gave me in happiness. I thank you for the love you have shown, but now it’s time I traveled on alone. So grieve a while for me, if you must, then let your grief be comforted by trust. It’s only for a while that we must part, so bless the memories within your heart. I won’t be far away for life goes on, so if you need me call, and I will come. Though you can’t see or touch me, I’ll be near and if you listen with your heart, you’ll hear all of my love around you soft and clear. And then, when you must come this way alone I’ll greet you with a smile and say, “Welcome Home”. Always In Our Hearts. Kathleen, Debbie, Donna, George, Patrick and Michael

‘Dinners for Kids’ program honored The Millennium Circle Fund gives $20,000 grant to the CEO for effort begun by Ollie’s owner.

Gretchen Hunt, director of development for CEO, left, joins David and Edna Tevet, originators of the CEO Dinners for Kids program, at Ollie’s, the Tevets’ Edwardsville restaurant, after the program won a $20,000 Millennium Circle grant Tuesday.

By STEVE MOCARSKY smocarsky@timesleader.com

An innovative program founded by an Edwardsville restaurateur to feed local needy children nutritionally balanced meals was awarded a grant Tuesday to help further that mission. The Millennium Circle Fund of The Luzerne Foundation presented a $20,000 grant to the Commission on Economic Opportunity for the “Dinners for Kids” program at the Millennium Circle’s 2011 Annual Luncheon. During the luncheon, a representative from each of six nonprofit finalists – narrowed from a field of 13 – presented to almost 200 Millennium Circle members and guests how the grant would help their organization and, by extension, the community. Millennium Circle members then voted on which charity should receive the grant. David Tevet, who owns Ollie’s, An American Restaurant, with his wife, Edna, apparently made the best case. “Dinners For Kids fights childhood hunger and improves children’s health with a program that is simple in concept, cost effective, practical in application, proven by results, and easily

HOW TO HELP To donate to Dinners for Kids, mail a check to CEO/Dinners for Kids, P.O. Box 1127, 165 Amber Lane, Wilkes-Barre, 18703-1127 or find a link to CEO’s donation website at www.DinnersForKids.org.

replicable,” he said. When the Tevets learned that more than 10,000 children in Luzerne County are at risk of getting no decent daily meal other than their school-provided lunches and no decent meal at all when school is out, they came up with the idea last year of providing some of these children “kid-approved” nutritious and balanced dinners in microwave-safe containers, accompanied by fresh fruit and homemade desserts. Children were referred to the program by teachers and county Children

& Youth social workers. The food is prepared at Ollie’s and delivered to children’s homes by volunteers. Because of the restaurant’s buying power and volunteers, one complete meal costs about $1.70, far below the rate for federal food programs. It costs about $21,000 a year to feed 40 children, and the program now serves 50, Tevet said, adding that the grant will enable the program to add another 40 children. Tevet hopes a regular source of funding can be secured so he can ap-

proach other restaurants with a challenge to replicate the program and serve more needy children. He noted the program is effective because it can’t be taken advantage of in ways that food stamp programs can. The Millennium Circle Fund was created by a group of donors whose gifts of $2,000 help the Luzerne Foundation identify significant unmet community needs. The ultimate goal is to have 2,000 members and a fund that can present community grants totaling $200,000 annually.

WEST PITTSTON COUNCIL

Dunmore firm picked for flood debris removal, disposal By WILLIAM BELL Times Leader Correspondent

WEST PITTSTON – The borough received five bids for flood debris removal and disposal with the apparent low bidder being Smart Recycling of Dunmore at $127.50 per ton and a total of $191,250, officials said at council’s meeting Tuesday evening. Since the bids ranged as high as $356 per ton and $534,000 for a total, Solicitor Matthew Carmody recommended awarding the contract to Smart Recycling contingent upon

written confirmation that the bid included landfill tipping fees. Council approved this action and directed Jeremy Nelson of Reilly Associates to send a letter requesting this confirmation. The bidding covers approximately 1,500 tons to be picked up by Dec. 31. Council President Brian Thornton stated the borough has expectations FEMA will reimburse the borough for 75 percent of the debris pickup costs, and the state will assist possibly with the remaining amount. Borough Manager Savino Bonita clarified that FEMA will reimburse on-

ly for debris bills incurred by the borough. He said FEMA will not reimburse for the cost of Dumpsters obtained by private homeowners. Also, council: • Authorized Reilly Associates to file an application for a PennVEST loan in an amount not to exceed $1,750,000 for the proposed sewer project on York Avenue. The project involves renovations to storm and sanitary sewers in the York Avenue area to reduce flooding. Reilly Associates was also autho-

rized to file for assistance under the Local Share Assessment Fund (gaming funds) for construction, rehabilitation and extension of the sewer system and street paving. • Said leaf pickup will begin Nov 7, and the leaves do not have to be placed in containers. • Approved the sale of borough vehicles by bid. Joseph Holly of West Pittston was the high bidder for a 2003 truck at $3,701, and DeNaples Auto was the high bidder at $1,100 for a1983 truck and $2,100 for a 1990 truck.

Dorothy Howell Rodham, mother of Hillary Clinton, dies By MICHAEL MUSKAL Los Angeles Times

LOS ANGELES — Dorothy Howell Rodham, whose daughter is Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and whose son-inlaw Bill Clinton was president of the United States, died Tuesday morning, the Clinton family announced. She was 92. Born in Chicago on June 4, 1919, Rodham died shortly after midnight in Washington, surrounded by her family. Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton had canceled a trip to London and Istanbul, Turkey, to be with her mother. “Her story was a quintessentially American one, largely because she wrote it herself,” her family said in a statement emailed to reporters. “She Howell Rodham overcame abandonment and hardship as a young girl to become the remarkable woman she was — a warm, generous and strong woman; an intellectual; a woman who told a great joke and always got the joke; an extraordinary friend and, most of all, a loving wife, mother and grandmother.” In addition to her daughter and Bill Clinton, Rodham is survived by her sons and daughters-in-law, Hugh Rodham and Maria Rodham, and Tony Rodham and Megan Rodham; her grandchildren, Chelsea Clinton and Chelsea’s husband, Marc Mezvinsky; Zachary Rodham; Fiona Rodham; and Simon Rodham, the family said. The family said there will be a private celebration of her life for family and friends. Dorothy Rodham was the daughter Chicago firefighter Edwin John Howell Jr. and Della Murray, who divorced in 1927. The children were sent to live with paternal grandparents in Alhambra, Calif.. Dorothy graduated from Alhambra High School in 1937 then moved back to Chicago where, after a failed reunion with her mother, she worked in offices. In 1937, she met Hugh Ellsworth Rodham and they married in 1942. They had three children, Hillary, Hugh and Tony, who were raised in suburban Park Ridge, Ill. Hugh Rodham, who was born and raised in Scranton, died in 1993. He was buried at Washburn Street Cemetery in Scranton. The then president and first lady came to the area for the services.

COURT BRIEFS SCRANTON â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A Plymouth man was sentenced Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Edwin Kosik to two years in federal prison for his role in a mortgage fraud scheme. Benjamin Haughney, 39, previously pleaded guilty to one count of mail fraud in connection with a fraud scheme that was perpetrated by him and several other employees of the First Advantage Mortgage Co. and Four Star Mortgage Co. Federal prosecutors said that from 1999 to 2005, Haughney and others used false appraisals and other documents, including false W-2 forms and employment records, to qualify customers for inflated mortgage loans. Some of those customers then defaulted on the mortgages, resulting in $1 million to $2.5 million in losses to banks and other financial institutions.

the 1960 presidential campaign. (Ryder had previously performed on Dec. 16, 1971, at the Paramount Theater â&#x20AC;&#x201C; now the F.M. Kirby Center. Teegarden and Van Winkle and Bob Seger also were on the bill.) Area music fans Ed Raineri and Joe Middleton were at the 1972 Ryder concert.â&#x20AC;&#x153;My eyes were burning, but we all thought it might be part of the show,â&#x20AC;? Raineri said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But then a Wilkes-Barre fireman came on stage and grabbed the microphone and ordered everyone to leave.â&#x20AC;? Middleton said the next night

ter the smoke cleared. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All I know is that Roy E. Morgan (the WILK owner, since deceased) met with Mitch Ryder the following day and convinced him to perform outside that night (April 19) on Public Square,â&#x20AC;? Bruce said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was an unbelievable night.â&#x20AC;? Nardone and Bruce said they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t recall all of the details, but the crowd was estimated to be around 6,000, mostly teenagers. Nardone and Bruce estimated the crowd to be the largest ever gathered on Public Square since John F. Kennedy rode through during

a pharmacy on two different occasions was sentenced Monday to nine to 18 years in state prison on related charges. Stanley Kocher, 39, of Lawrence Street, was sentenced on two counts of robbery and one count of aggravated assault by Luzerne County Judge William Amesbury. Kocher, who pleaded guilty to the charges in July, was charged by police after they said on Feb. 25 he stole a purse from a woman outside the CVS Pharmacy on Carey Avenue and again on March 6 in front of the same pharmacy. Kocher was ordered to pay $427 in restitution, combined, to the women and received 230 days credit for time already served in prison. Kocherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s attorney, Steven Greenwald, on Tuesday filed a request to reduce Kocherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sentence to six to 12 years in prison, on the grounds that the two robbery charges should run concurrently

Joe Nardone Sr. and Don Bruce display a poster featuring Mitch Ryder, Teegarden and Van Winkle and Bob Seger, who all performed at the Paramount Theater in Wilkes-Barre on Dec. 16, 1971.

Public Square was jammed with young people waiting for Ryder to perform. After the concert, many of the kids stayed to help clean up the Square. Middleton, now 61, was writing a music column for the Wyoming Valley Observer, a weekly paper since out of business. He said people at the concert at the Comerford helped remove equip-

to each other, therefore, reducing the sentence.

MUNICIPAL BRIEFS

WILKES-BARRE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A Luzerne County judge on Tuesday signed an order to transport double-homicide suspect Hugo Selenski from the State Correctional Institution at Retreat to the Luzerne County Correctional Facility on Friday. Judge Joseph Van Jura signed the order in accordance with an agreement with Selenski and prosecutors that Selenski would be housed at the county prison 10 days before the beginning of jury selection in his trial. Selenski, 38, is accused in the strangulation murders of Tammy Fassett and Michael Kerkowski on May 3, 2002, and of burying their bodies outside the Kingston Township house on Mount Olivet Road where he lived. Their bodies were uncovered by investigators on June 3, 2003. Selenskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trial is scheduled to begin on Nov. 14 with jury selection. Testimony is set to begin Nov. 29.

Musto Carroll called honest, dedicated DA

candal” and “corruption” are two words that should never be directed toward Luzerne County District Attorney Jackie Musto Carroll. In my 26 years of law enforcement, I have never met a more honest, caring and dedicated person than our district attorney. She has gone above and beyond when it comes to protecting and caring for the residents of Luzerne County. She goes nonstop and I have never heard her complain about it. If there is a serious incident that occurs in the county, she is there to offer any assistance she can to law enforcement, victims and their families. She truly cares about victims and their families and providing justice to those people who do them wrong. Those people who have had the opportunity to work with her, like I have, know what I’m talking about. Words more appropriately directed at Luzerne County District Attorney Jackie Musto Carroll are these: integrity, honesty, dedication, commitment, loyalty, compassion and caring. Daniel E. Hunsinger Captain Kingston Municipal Police Department

OTHER OPINION: COLLEGE AID

Obama eases education debt

COLLEGE DEGREE is the surest path to a comfortable lifestyle, but the cost of a degree keeps rising. With state governments unable to help, President Barack Obama is offering some relief. The College Board reports that average in-state tuition at four-year public colleges and universities rose this year by 8.3 percent. Costs at public four-year schools in the country, excluding California, increased by 7 percent, the same rate as in Pennsylvania, where the average cost rose from $11,331 last fall to $12,079 today. Obama is speeding up, from 2014 to 2012, the effective date of a law reducing the maximum annual payment on student loans,

from 15 percent to 10 percent of discretionary income. Student loan debts will be forgiven after 20 years, down from 25 years. Millions of borrowers will be able to repay more of their debt at lower interest rates – and that will encourage bright young people to pursue the education America needs to remain a world leader in critical fields such as math, science, medicine and technology. President Obama says he wants America “to win the future,” and that means “we should do everything we can to put a college education within reach for every American.” Some believe his plan is driven by electoral politics. Even if it is, it’s a good start. Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

Exeter Twp. candidates vow to keep lid on taxes

t is with deep humility that we ask Exeter Township residents to support us as we seek the offices of township supervisor. We always have considered it a great honor and privilege to serve the township’s taxpayers. Our experience will serve us as we address the many problems that face our township. You will hear and read many accusations directed against our candidacies. These are nothing more than the desperate actions of desperate men trying to win your support. Their charges are so false and mean-spirited that we don’t intend to dignify them with an answer. In our campaign we have taken the high road and presented our plans for what we intend to do if elected. Presently, everyone is struggling with a difficult national economy. Many people have lost their jobs. Grocery, gasoline and heating fuel prices are through the roof. Our township has seen much damage and destruction from the latest floods. The last thing we need now is to spend beyond our means and burden our residents with higher taxes. Our pledge to you is that we will work to hold down our taxes and to be as con-

Help to clean house by electing Salavantis

he overwhelming public opinion is that the voters of Luzerne County must change how we govern ourselves. Luzerne County has been plagued by corruption at every level of government, as evidenced by the removal of three Court of Common Pleas judges, the conviction of numerous county elected and appointed officials and the prosecution of many vendors to Luzerne County. Fortunately for us, federal, state and local investigations have placed the voters of Luzerne County in a position to affect, for the first time in many decades, comprehensive change. Now it is up to the voters to educate themselves regarding the qualifications of the county council candidates, the principles and values of the candidates for judge, and finally to embrace the concept of replacing the old “political machine” with honest, fresh faces. Voters need to be engaged this year in order to get out and vote for the absolute best candidates. The home rule form of government, overwhelmingly supported by the voters of our county, can be the best way to bring integrity and responsible government back to Luzerne County. However, this form of government will work only if each voter takes seriously the responsibility of selecting and supporting the most qualified candidates for county council and helps to drive voter turnout. In the wake of the “kids-for-cash scandal” and the sentencing of former Judges Michael Conahan and Mark Ciavarella, it is imperative to select candidates of the highest integrity, experience and qualifications for judge. The task of rebuilding the integrity of

DOONESBURY

our legal system cannot be complete until we have purged our courthouse of everyone responsible, directly or indirectly, for the tragic failure of our judicial system. The notion that District Attorney Jackie Musto Carroll should be re-elected on the basis of her “experience” is offensive and ridiculous. Our only experience with Jackie Musto Carroll has provided us with negative results. In its report on the “kids-for-cash scandal,” the Interbranch Commission on Juvenile Justice concluded that Musto Carroll “abdicated” her responsibilities as a prosecutor and that she “demonstrated no initiative, interest, or concern with what was occurring in juvenile court.” In her sworn testimony before the commission, Musto Carroll admitted that she had never set foot in a juvenile courtroom. In a shocking passage from her testimony, Musto Carroll went so far as to say that Judge Ciavarella “was probably trying to do the best that he could do.” Her weak example of executing the office of district attorney is an embarrassment to Northeastern Pennsylvania. The type of behavior exhibited by Musto Carroll is inexcusable of any district attorney, and Luzerne County deserves better. As a newcomer to Luzerne County politics, Stefanie Salavantis presents us with a unique opportunity to start with a clean slate. Stefanie possesses all of the qualifications desirable for a competent, effective and, most important, honorable district attorney. In this year’s election it is more important than ever that voters educate themselves on all of the candidates and get out to vote. I encourage all Luzerne County voters to exercise their right to vote in this historic election. See you at the polls! Terry Casey Chairman Luzerne County Republican Party

Musto Carroll’s record merits her re-election

uzerne County District Attorney Jackie Musto Carroll has proven her skills as a leader in the area of justice administration. She has followed her outline presented when she took office and displayed a level of intervention noticed by all concerned residents. I am proud to be among the people who appreciate her honesty and dedicated service to the county. All voters who review the facts will cast their votes for Jackie Musto Carroll.

continue to provide the same level of constituent service in this expanded legislative district would be to add a second district office and additional staff at taxpayer expense. Mark Nicastre of the Pennsylvania Democratic Press Office said the plan was not authored to ensure fairness or representation, but simply to secure the Republican majority in Harrisburg. Mullery said he believes the changes were made to protect freshman state Rep. Tarah Toohill, R-Butler Township, by removing some Democratic-leaning communities near Hazleton from her 116th Legislative District. Toohill won her seat by defeating former Democratic Majority Leader Scott Eachus. “The Republican leadership

put politics before public service to protect one freshman legislator,” Mullery said. State Rep. Karen Boback, RHarveys Lake, and state Sen. Lisa Baker, R-Lehman Township, said the plan is preliminary and changes could be made. State Rep. Mike Carroll, DAvoca, is looking at a major reconfiguration of his district, the 118th. “The division of the communities of the Pittston Area School District into two districts is an abomination,” Carroll said. “The city of Pittston and the boroughs of Duryea and Hughestown belong with their neighbors in a single district and not packaged into a perverse district that stretches into northern Lackawanna County.” Carroll said he vows “to do everything in my power to amend this plan.” Mullery found it “very appropriate” the Republican redistricting plan was approved on

Halloween. “I refer to the preliminary plan as the Pennsylvania Chainsaw Massacre,” he said. The Legislative Reapportionment Commission on Monday voted 3-2 to approve the preliminary plan at a meeting in the state Capitol. Senate Republican Leader Dominic Pileggi, House Republican Leader Mike Turzai and former Superior Court Judge Stephen J. McEwen, a Republican from Delaware County, voted yes. Senate Democratic Leader Jay Costa and House Democratic Leader Frank Dermody voted no. The plan is available on the Legislative Reapportionment Commission’s website – www.redistricting.state.pa.us. A public hearing on the plan is set for noon Nov. 18 in the state Capitol. A public comment period on the plan ends Nov. 30. The plan does not need action by the legislature or governor to become final, Mullery said.

District judge seats at risk Pennsylvania looking to eliminate a minimum of 50 minority judicial seats. By EDWARD LEWIS elewis@timesleader.com

Luzerne County magisterial district courts are not immune to a statewide effort to phase out at least 50 minority judicial seats. The state Supreme Court every 10 years is mandated to reestablish magisterial boundaries to serve an ever-changing population demographic and determine how to allocate money and resources. There are 17 magisterial districts in Luzerne County, with Wilkes-Barre Central Court established in 2005 to hear preliminary hearings, except criminal homicide proceedings, for the two magisterial districts in Wilkes-Barre. The last realignment for magisterial districts in the county took place in 2004

inger the largest tenant in the building. As a result, the former Verizon Building will now be referred to as the Geisinger Building. The building is owned by Bloomsburg-based RAM Buildings. Currently, the health plan’s call center is located on the first floor of the building, and the eastern region sales, provider network management, health services and wellness departments are on the seventh floor. “We’ve had a lot of growth lately … in membership,” Bowen said. “We’re spreading out.” She said in January 2010, membership in any of Geisinger’s health plans was 238,000.

after the death of Edwardsville District Judge John Hopkins. Martin Kane, one of two district judges in Wilkes-Barre who also serves on the Magisterial District Judge Weighted Caseload Committee, said the plan for Luzerne County’s realignment is through attrition. Kane said it is likely a magisterial seat will be phased out by 2017 through retirement. County president judges throughout the state will soon be receiving detailed instructions for the realignment process. The review covers the number of boundaries of each of the state’s 539 magisterial districts. Luzerne County President Judge Thomas Burke said the study to realign magisterial districts in the county will soon begin. “We’ll be getting our teeth into it,” Burke said. “This comprehensive analysis helps ensure that the configuration of each magisterial district is appropriate to serve its resi-

dents over the next decade,” Supreme Court Chief Justice Ronald D. Castille stated in a news release. The realignment process includes a directive from the state Supreme Court to develop a plan to reduce the overall number of magisterial court judgeships to address a series of financial shortfalls in addition to population changes. Last year, the Supreme Court requested president judges to examine the feasibility of eliminating then-existing vacancies among magisterial districts. At the time of the request, a magisterial seat in Wilkes-Barre was vacant. In the end, 10 magisterial seats were phased out statewide with the vacant Wilkes-Barre seat placed on the ballot this election year. President judges are expected to submit their recommendations to the Administrative Office of Pennsylvania Courts early next year.

By the end of September 2011, the amount rose to 273,000. The Wilkes-Barre region seemed a logical location to expand since operations were already in place and “if you look at our membership, a lot of it is in the Wilkes-Barre market,” Bowen said. “We support the revitalization efforts that are going on in downtown Wilkes-Barre,” said Geisinger Health Plan Chief Operating Officer Richard Kwei in a release. “This is an exciting time for the city and we are happy to bring more jobs into the downtown.” Geisinger is headquartered in Danville and has other Pennsylvania offices in Lancaster, Wyomissing, Altoona, Harrisburg and State College and one in West Virginia. Bowen said competition on the hospital side of the business

between Geisinger Health System and Community Health Systems did not factor into the decision to add more jobs in Northeastern Pennsylvania. Geisinger owns two hospitals in the Wilkes-Barre area and has plans to acquire another in Scranton, while Community Health owns hospitals in Wilkes-Barre, Scranton, Nanticoke and Tunkhannock, and is in the process of acquiring another in Scranton. The addition of jobs downtown follows several downtown business closings, including the Happy Little Hot Dog Co., The Greek Connection, Blue Chip Gourmet and Beefy King. The announcement also comes the day after the latest regional unemployment data was released showing the Wilkes-Barre/ Scranton metro area has the highest unemployment rate in the state at 9.7 percent.

By VAN ROSE For The Times Leader

WILKES-BARRE — Top-seeded Holy Redeemer turned back a spirited effort by Crestwood, and No. 2 seed Dunmore survived an early scare from Tunkhannock in the District 2 Class 2A girls volleyball semifinals on Tuesday night at Redeemer. The Royals (17-0) posted a 3-0 victory over Crestwood by scores of 25-19, 25-17, 25-19. Dunmore (15-0) defeated Tunkhannock by scores of 31-29, 25-11, 25-16. Wyoming Valley Conference champion Holy Redeemer and Lackawanna champion Dunmore will meet for the district championship at 7 p.m. Thursday at Dallas High School in a much-anticipated battle of heavyweights. At stake will be a berth in the state tournament, as well as bragging rights for the respective leagues. “We’re really exited about getting the chance to play Holy Redeemer,” said Dunmore star Courtney Murray, whose team will try to snap Holy Redeemer’s streak of winning five consecutive district titles. Thursday’s match will also feature two of the best hitters in the district—Murray and Holy Redeemer’s Allie Griswold. Murray notched 19 kills in the Bucks win over the Tigers, while Griswold led the Royals with 14 kills against Crestwood. The Comets (12-5) played one of their best matches of the season by playing the Royals on nearly even terms until the middle stages of each game. However, in the end, Crestwood wound up suffering its third loss of the year to the Royals. “We were punching with them until 16 in all three games,” said Crestwood coach Mike Williams. “But after 16 (points), we hit the wall in each of them.” The Royals forged a 16-14 lead in game one on a kill by Griswold, and sealed the deal with a 9-4 run. Redeemer took control of game two at 16-13 on a Griswold block, and went ahead to stay in game three at 15-14 on an unforced error by the Comets. “We hit to the spots they weren’t,” said Royals junior middle hitter Sarah Warnagaris, who posted nine kills. “We really worked hard and I thought we did a better job at the net.” Sophomore outside hitter Nicole Slavoski had eight kills, and was also a major force on the front line. “When we hit our spots and See ROYALS, Page 4B

Dallas defeats Crestwood for the third time

By DAVE ROSENGRANT drosengrant@timesleader.com

EDWARDSVILLE – There’s an old adage that it’s hard to beat the same team three times in a season no matter what the sport. That was the total opposite for Dallas on Tuesday in the District 2 Class 2A semifinals against Crestwood. The Mountaineers knocked off the Comets for the third time this season at Wilkes University’s Schmidt Stadium 4-1 to ad-

vance to the district finals DALLAS for the first time since winning the championship in CRESTWOOD 2007. Dallas outscored the Comets 13-3 in the three matches this season. With the win, the unbeaten Mountaineers (16-0) will face defending District 2 Class 2A champion Scranton Prep (123-1) for the gold medal and a

berth in the PIAA Championships Thursday at 6:30 p.m. at Wilkes. “It’s tough to get the boys mentally prepared, but I felt our boys came back better than any of the matches before and I commend them for their effort and their attitude,” Crestwood coach Pat Upton said. Crestwood started off strong, netting two shots on goal in the first five minutes of the match giving the daunting Dallas defense – which only allowed nine

goals all season – an early scare. But the Comets (10-6) came away empty. A few minutes later, the Mountaineers connected for the game’s first score when A.J. Nardone beat the Crestwood defense and struck the back of the net off a pass from John Murray for a 1-0 advantage at the 33:37 mark. “It’s a cruel game.

Lehman 3-2 in a shootout. SCRANTON The Cavaliers PREP went on to win the district title. Tuesday’s LAKE-LEHMAN semifinal rematch didn’t feature a late equalizer, but it still had the same feel to the Knights. “I actually said after regulation, I said it was like déjà vu,” Lehman coach Mike Kostrobala said. “It felt like the exact same game. Both teams giving it their all, both teams had chances, both teams could have won. “Unfortunately, we didn’t put DON CAREY/THE TIMES LEADER away one or two of our chances, and they did at the end.” Kris Konicki (left) of Lake-Lehman and Raymond Massey of

SCRANTON — This one felt all too familiar for Lake-Lehman. Same opponent. Same round. Even the same venue. And, unfortunately for the Black Knights, the same result. For the second straight year, Scranton Prep escaped a strong challenge from the Knights in the District 2 Class 2A semifinals on Tuesday at Scranton Memorial Stadium, winning 2-1 in overtime. Prep’s Connor Fitzsimmons tapped home the game-winner in the first overtime following a frantic scramble in front of the Lake-Lehman goal. Nearly one year ago to the day, Prep had rallied late to force overtime before topping Lake- See KNIGHTS, Page 4B

Scranton Prep collide as they battle for a ball during Tuesday’s District 2 Class 2A semifinal in Scranton.

Penn State has a break in the schedule, but the Nittany Lions’ quarterback soap opera never takes a week off. Joe Paterno insisted Tuesday that Rob Bolden will continue to see the field as part of a quarterback rotation with Matt McGloin when the Lions return to play Nov. 12 against Nebraska. “We’re still gonna do it as a rotation,” the Penn State coach said on the Big Ten coaches teleconference. “It wouldn’t be fair to Bolden for me not to still consider him as one of the kids we’re gonna depend on. He’s worked too hard, he’s made too many sacrifices and he’s got too much ability for me just to say … ‘Hey, we’re not counting on you.’ “He’s gotta be ready to go. We’ll play him. I’m pretty sure we’ll end up playing him.” That likely comes as unwelcome news to many who were in attendance at Beaver Stadium on Saturday against Illinois. The team was booed loudly on several occasions in the second quarter during Bolden’s four drives under center. Whether the boos were directed more at the sophomore himself, the offense as a whole, or the coaches’ decision to keep a struggling quarterback in the game is a matter of interpretation. Not up for debate are the numbers. Penn State ran 14 plays from scrimmage in those four drives, gaining 24 total yards, all on runs by Silas Redd. Bolden went 0-for-4 passing and fumbled twice. The first came from getting hit as he was preparing to throw and was recovered by lineman DeOn’tae Pannell. The second he accidentally jarred loose himself after faking a handoff. Illinois fell on the ball at the Penn State 25-yard line. It was the roughest sequence for Bolden in his brief collegiate career, as some fans took to jeering as soon as they saw him in the sideline huddle preparing to start a drive. Though Bolden was not made available for interviews after the game, teammates said he was not discouraged. “He’s handled it pretty well,” senior captain Derek Moye said. “He’s stayed positive and tried to help everybody out. He’s not been a distraction. “Both guys have handled the whole situation as well as anybody could.” Bolden had started the first seven games of the season as part See QBS, Page 5B

DISTRICT 2 FIELD HOCKEY

Blue Knights corner title behind Wagner’s goal By JAY MONAHAN For The Times Leader

KINGSTON – It was the type of game defined by what makes field hockey so bewildering. One team dominates possession to no avail; the other waits until it can cash in on a penalty corner. Such was the case in the fourth consecutive installment between Crestwood and Wyoming Seminary in the District 2 Class 2A championship game Tuesday at Spartan Stadium. Wyoming Seminary connected on a late penalty corner goal off the stick of Marra Wagner to capture the district championship with a 1-0 victory over the Crestwood Comets. “She wanted it,” said coach Karen

Klassner, of the junior midfielder in her first WYOMING year. “In practice, we SEMINARY asked ‘Who wants it’ and she said ‘I do’. So it was her.” The Blue Knights adCRESTWWODS vance to the PIAA playoffs against District 3’s fourth-place team on Tuesday, while the Comets will play in a three-team, play-in round against the second-place teams in districts 4 and 11. Struggling to capture any sort of offensive momentum, the Blue Knights did not find their stride until 14 minutes remaining. Four consecutive penalty corners – half of their game total – in a mat-

ter of less than three minutes yielded Wagner’s goal. “We knew what Crestwood was capable of,” said Klassner. “We said keep playing the way you are.” To counter the offensive malaise, Wyoming Seminary changed the script on its fourth penalty corner. Instead of passing to a teammate on her left, AshLeigh Sebia caught the ball outside of the circle, head-faked left and ripped a shot through an open lane to her right. Kristian Stefanides caught off the goalkeeper’s pads and dished it to Wagner, who drove the ball into the corner of the net at the 11:33 mark. See SEM, Page 4B

A quick look at the standings shows much of the same as it was early and throughout the season and that’s with the same guy leading the way. Barring any crazy circumstances it looks as if Matt Kakaley is well on his way to capturing his first career driving championship at the Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs. Matt, the youngest driver ever to reach 1,000 career wins, is certainly a rising start in the sport and now that he’s a resident of Pennsylvania I am guessing we will see much more of Kakaley moving into the 2012 harness racing meet. Finally on a side note I regretfully forget to congratulate trainer Chris Oakes on his dominant win in the $600,000 Breeder’s Crown this past Saturday at Woodbine Racetrack, in Canada, with his standout pacer Economy Terror. The daughter of Western Terror has been sensational all season and with that win she should be well on her way to divisional honors at the end of the season. A tip of the hat is certainly in order to Oakes and the rest of the connections of this superstar pacer on a job well done! BEST BET: LOGAN M (14TH) VALUE PLAY: CHEYENNE KNIGHT (10TH)

HUNLOCK CREEK—Six months ago, former Bishop Hoban and Wyoming Seminary football player Corey Konycki graduated from Robert Morris University, where he earned his degree in business management. A four year anchor on the Colonial offensive line, Konycki had the honor of being named as an Associated Press Football Championship Subdivision (FCS) second team All-American after the line led a hardnosed rushing attack that cracked a top 25 ranking in the FCS play- “I get to offs. use most However, the 6-foot-5, of the 300 pound same football standout had trainers an even larger goal: a and facilspot on an ities that NFL roster. the SteelUnfortunately for Ko- ers use nycki, after here, so grueling workouts to I’m hoping improve his conditioning, to just get the phone my foot in call from the NFL never the door.” came. That Corey Kowasn’t enough to nycki bring an end to his dream. “Basically, it was just a big upset and it drove me to work even harder,” Konycki said. Konycki took a step toward realizing his dream to play in the NFL a few weeks ago when his agent told him about an upcoming tryout with the Pittsburgh Power team of the Arena Football League. “I wasn’t too crazy about signing to play with the Arena League when the idea first came up because I was getting calls mostly from other teams that were too far away,” Konycki said. “There was a lot of talent in Pittsburgh trying to earn a spot on the team and the coach seemed like a very nice guy. He sees potential in all of his players.” Konycki noted that among those trying out for the Power was former Penn State quarterback Daryll Clark. Deciding to try out for the team himself, Konycki described how no pads were worn and no 40-yard dash times recorded. He simply did some stretches and went right into hitting and pass-blocking drills. Konycki has since been offered and signed a contract to play for the Power. “I get to use most of the same trainers and facilities that the Steelers use here, so I’m hoping to just get my foot in the door to have another opportunity to get into the NFL,” Konycki said. Only time will tell whether or not Konycki’s ultimate dream of wearing an NFL uniform while running out of a stadium tunnel for a primetime Monday night match-up will come true. But one thing is certain: Konycki shows the heart and desire it takes to make dreams become reality. “The coach said a couple of guys have gotten bumped up from the AFL to the NFL in the past, so this is just another chance to be close to my agent and to play with other talented players,” Konycki said. “It will get me more film and give me the chance to keep playing a game I love.” Konycki is currently working out with a trainer to get into football shape before he has to report to camp on February 16.

WBS PENGUINS

Schnell seeking to fight his way back onto the ice By TOM VENESKY tvenesky@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – The Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins have only three fighting majors in the first nine games of the season. Ryan Schnell hopes to change that. After Schnell signed a oneyear deal in the summer, a few doors opened that paved the way for him to be the Penguins’ sole enforcer. Topping the list was Jesse Boulerice’s retirement in the off season, followed by Devin DiDiomete’s release last week.

Walker, Lerg miss practice Geoff Walker and Bryan Lerg didn’t practice on Tuesday. Hynes said Lerg had the day off for rest and maintenance and will be back on the ice today. Walker, who left Saturday’s game against Manchester with an injury, is day-to-day, Hynes said.

But Schnell has only suited up for one game this season – Oct. 13 against Rochester, and has yet to record a fighting major. Time will change that,

Schnell said, not only for himself but for the team as well. “With the teams we play, such as Hershey, Binghamton and Norfolk, we’re going to see them so many times this year. You’ll start to see a little more scrappiness and fights as those rivalries build,” Schnell said. When DiDiomete – who led the AHL in fighting majors last season, was released from the Penguins last week, it left Schnell as the team’s only enforcer. With DiDiomete currently in Wheeling, Steve MacIntyre in Pittsburgh and defenseman Boris Valabik still sidelined

with an injury, it could be Schnell’s spot for a while. “It’s nice knowing I’m here and there’s really nobody else,” he said. “It does give me a little more confidence knowing it’s solely my responsibility.” Head coach John Hynes said this season’s low fight totals aren’t necessarily by design. Circumstance has a lot to do with it, he said. Strategies and lineups are selected with one thing in mind, winning. The one that Hynes believes gives the Penguins the best chance to win is what will be used, he said.

play as a team, we’re hard to beat,” Slavoski. “We just have to play Redeemer volleyball.” Royals coach Jack Kablick said his team hurt itself by committing 41 unforced errors, but he was pleased with the victory. “It’s hard to beat anybody three times in a year.”

“We tried the same corner at first, and we were able to get the pass off,” said Sebia, who was also credited with an assist. “When we did the corner the next time, we read it a little bit more and knew they would be expecting the pass. We were able to get it to the outside post. “When I take a shot or Ann (Romanowski) takes that shot, we know there is going to be a player on that outside post every single time.” Just like flicking on a light switch, Klassner switched her team’s playcalling to “defensive mode.” After losing the momentum following the goal, Crestwood managed five penalty corners in the final five minutes.

needed,” Hynes said. “We look forward to getting Ryan some more ice time in the next couple weeks.” That’s fine with Schnell, who has spent the last few weeks sparring with teammates in practice and working out with the boxing gloves off the ice in order to keep his fighting skills sharp. But just because more ice time is in his future, it doesn’t mean Schnell is looking to drop the gloves on every shift. “Fighting is something I bring, but the timing has to be right,” he said.

DISTRICT 2 FIELD HOCKEY

This is one shutout they’ll shout about

Continued from Page 1B

After a scoreless but tense second half sent the game into overtime, both teams traded quality opportunities. Jay Dawsey, who scored the Knights’ lone goal of the contest, had the best chance to win it for Lake-Lehman just four minutes into the extra period. But the striker’s dangerouslooking shot sailed just over top of the goal. Prep got the winner nearly five minutes later as Fitzsimmons knocked it in from point-blank range. “I think we were getting a little fatigued in the back,” Kostrobala said. “A number of guys stabbed and missed at the ball. … I think fatigue maybe was starting to set in a little bit there and our legs were starting to get out from underneath us. “Earlier in the game, I don’t think that goal happens. But good effort (from Prep).” The Cavaliers (13-3-1) advance to Thursday’s district title game against Dallas. Lake-Lehman’s season ends at 14-4. Though Prep had more pressure throughout the match, the Knights had just as many strong scoring chances. Not long after the Cavaliers’ Brian O’Donnell opened the scoring by firing in a rebound in the sixth minute, Dawsey answered with a perfectly placed shot into the lower-left corner from nearly 30 yards out to tie it. Lehman keeper John Butchko, a four-year starter for the Knights, kept his team alive, often coming out to challenge and making six saves. None were better than a hard shot midway through the second half that he managed to get a piece of and deflect hard off the crossbar and ultimately away from the net. “John certainly kept us in this game,” Kostrobala said. “For

“Sometimes that’s (fighting) going to be a huge part of the game plan,” Hynes said. “The games dictate that. Sometimes (fighting) does help you win the game, sometimes it doesn’t.” Hynes also pointed out that the lack of fighting majors isn’t indicative of a change in philosophy. An enforcer still has a role on the team, he said, and the Penguins have two they can call on. “Devin’s (DiDiomete) in Wheeling and we have Ryan here, so we feel we have two guys that can fill that role if

Stephanie Klug paced the Comets with 10 kills and two blocks, while Carina Mazzoni had 13 assists, five service points and seven digs. Hannah Lee added seven service points and eight digs. “I’m proud of how we played,” Klug said. “We didn’t give up.” Tunkhannock (9-8) came out hitting on all cylinders in game one, playing Dunmore on virtually even terms until the Bucks finally prevailed 31-29 on

two unforced errors by the Tigers. Murray’s hitting and blocking enabled Dumore to escape Tunkhannock’s upset effort. The Bucks were never seriously threatened in games two and three. “We expected them to play us close,” said Murray, who had five blocks. “Their hitting was really good. No. 7 (Anna Boecker) carried them.” Boecker, a 5-foot-10 junior

middle hitter, paced the Tigers with 12 kills and four blocks. Erica Swenson had five kills and two blocks, while Britney Atkins had three kills and eight digs. We did nothing wrong, we got beat by a great team,” Boecker said. “Their hitters were on top of things, but I’m proud of everything that we accomplished.” Kimberly Dempsey had 23 assists for Dunmore, and freshman Jillian Korgeski had seven kills, four aces and two blocks.

“We switched over just because of (Anna) Dessoye, to be honest with you,” said Klassner. “We felt we had to slow them down.” The Blue Knights’ Ann Romanowski proved to be the deciding factor in Klassner’s so-called defensive scheme with three crucial stops on defense. The senior back blocked two consecutive Anna Dessoye shots with four minutes left before picking off a cross pass in front of an unguarded net on the Comets’ next charge. She capped it off with her second defensive save in front of the net on a penalty corner in the final minute. “Ann Romanowski had one of the best games I’ve ever seen a kid play,” said Klassner, who is coaching in her 40th year at Wyoming Seminary. “She played out of her mind tonight.”

Wyoming Seminary goalkeeper Hannah Dressler, who was not a starter entering the season, made eight saves for a shutout victory. Crestwood’s Danielle DeSpirito stopped two shots. Crestwood retained a 13-5 advantage in shots for the game. Despite the shot differential, Klassner said her team’s focus was to limit the number of Crestwood opportunities and keep the score low. “They were quick when we watched them the other night. We were trying to take them out of their game in the first half.” Wyoming Seminary 1, Crestwood 0 Wyoming Seminary..................................... 0 1 — 1 Crestwood..................................................... 0 0 — 0 First half: 1.

Gold Glove winners anounced NEW YORK (AP) — Clayton Kershaw, Matt Kemp and Andre Ethier became the first trio of Los Angeles Dodgers to win NL Gold Gloves in the same year, and Adrian Gonzalez, Dustin Pedroia and Jacoby Ellsbury became the first three Red Sox in 32 seasons to win the AL honor together. Kershaw became a first-time winner at pitcher when the awards were announced Tuesday. Ethier earned his first Gold Glove in the outfield and Kemp regained the NL award he also earned in 2009. Gonzalez earned his first AL Gold Glove to go along with two he won in the NL while with San Diego.

WRIGHT TWP. -- The cheers just kept coming all night. “Yeah, Haley!” “That’s it, Lilly!” “Go, Sauni!” That’s the sound of the Wyoming Valley West defense making big play after big play. The Spartans posted another shutout – their 12th of the season – as they repeated as District 2 Class 3A field hockey champions with a 1-0 victory over Coughlin on Tuesday night at Crestwood High School. “It feels great to win it again,” said junior Casey Dolan, who set up the winning goal. Haley Gayoski, Lilly Shemo and Sauni Davenport were the backs who limited the number of quality chances Spartans keeper Kait Smicherko faced. When tested, Smicherko was up to the challenge, as she stalled the momentum Coughlin developed in the final 10 minutes of the first half with a pair of big saves. “A game like this, I couldn’t have asked for more from my team,” Coughlin coach Colleen Wood said. “Everyone gave 100 percent. One went in. Unfortunately, it was not ours.” If the Spartans backs weren’t reversing Crusaders’ transition efforts, the Wyoming Valley West midfielders were. It was a big play by Dolan that finally broke the ice on the scoreless game. “The last game we played, that was the exact way they played,”

DALLAS Continued from Page 1B

Dolan said of Coughlin’s long outlet passes. “It was what we expected since we’d seen it before. Our defense was really strong tonight.” Following a rush by Wyoming Valley West, Coughlin started play with a free hit at the 16. The long drive was cut off when Dolan stepped in front of a Coughlin forward. Dolan took a few strides in and launched the ball toward the Coughlin goal. The ball traveled between players and past others. It nearly tipped off the stick of Alex Gonda about 15 yards from the cage. But waiting in front of the net was Riki Stefanides, fresh off a hat trick in the Spartans last game. Stefanides deflected the ball past keeper Paige Tedik to give Wyoming Valley West the lead. “Our forwards are always up and ready to get a shot,” Dolan said. “I just watched it. It was wonderful.” For Tedik, the goal was the only blemish on a great game. She made 18 saves, keeping the highpowered Spartans within reach of her Crusaders. “She just had an outstanding game,” Wood said of Tedik. “Cara (Answini) made a ton of big plays on the goal line. We have a very good group coming back. They need to hold their heads high.” Wyoming Valley West advances to the PIAA tournament, opening the state playoffs against the District 11 runner-up.

You want to score early and we really wanted to come out strong and put them on their back foot and they just got the best of us today.” Dallas added to its lead approximately eight minutes later when Nardone struck again.

Backstrom leads Caps over Ducks The Associated Press

WASHINGTON — Nicklas Backstrom scored the tying goal with 42 seconds left in regulation, then added the game-winner at 2:18 of overtime to lift the Washington Capitals to a 5-4 comeback victory over the Anaheim Ducks on Tuesday night. The Capitals trailed 3-0 in the second period and 4-2 with 10:47 left in regulation before rallying. It was 4-3 when Washington pulled goaltender Tomas Vokoun in the final minute, and Backstrom hammered home the rebound of a shot by Jason Chimera to force the extra session. Washington improved to 6-0 at home and ended a two-game skid. Teemu Selanne had two goals and two assists for the Ducks, who have lost three straight. Jonas Hiller stopped 35 shots. Now in his 20th season, the 41-yearold Selanne leads the Ducks in goals (five) and assists (nine). He has three goals and eight assists in his last six games. Bruins 5, Senators 3 BOSTON — Johnny Boychuk and Daniel Paille scored 47 seconds apart to break open a tie game in the third period, and Boston ended a three-game losing streak by beating Ottawa. Chris Kelly had a goal and an assist, and Zdeno Chara had two assists for the defending Stanley Cup champions, who were 3-7 in

October — the worst mark in the Eastern Conference. The Bruins also snapped the Senators’ six-game winning streak. Boston took a 3-2 lead on goals by Patrice Bergeron and Chris Kelly, then put in two more after Ottawa’s Jared Cowen tied it with his first NHL goal with 14:56 left. Hurricanes 4, Lightning 2 RALEIGH, N.C. — Jeff Skinner and Chad LaRose had two goals each, lifting Carolina over Tampa Bay. Skinner, last season’s NHL rookie of the year, has six goals and 12 points in 12 games this season. Carolina improved to 1-2-1 against Southeast Division rivals. Tampa Bay had won three straight on the road against Carolina by a combined score of 15-5. Carolina’s Cam Ward (5-2-2) made 27 saves. Tampa Bay counterpart Dwayne Roloson (2-3-1) stopped 26 shots. Hurricanes forward Jussi Jokinen sustained an apparent injury to his left knee early in the third period and didn’t return.

Wild 2, Red Wings 1 DETROIT — Devin Setoguchi’s power-play goal 1:33 into overtime gave Minnesota a comeback win over Detroit. It was the fifth consecutive loss for the Red Wings, who were beaten 1-0 by the Wild in Minnesota on Saturday night.

STATE COLLEGE — While first-year coach Patrick Chambers brings energy and a new identity to Penn State basketball, any success this season in Happy Valley will likely revolve heavily around a returnee from the Nittany Lions’ old regime. Point guard Tim Frazier is the lone returning starter from Penn State’s 2010-11 campaign. The other four starters on that team, which finished 19-15 and reached the NCAA tournament for the first time in 10 years, were seniors, including the school career leading scorer Talor Battle. Now, it’s Frazier’s turn to take the shots and the spotlight. “I’m going to get a lot of attention I didn’t get last year,” said Frazier, who averaged 6.3 points and 5.1 assists per game last season. “But I’ve just been adjusting as far as taking a leadership role, taking it day by day.” The expectations for Frazier’s junior season are high, even though expectations for the team are low. In a media poll at Big Ten media day last week in Chicago, Penn State was picked to finish last in the 12-team conference. Chambers replaced Ed DeChellis, who coached his alma mater for eight seasons before leaving in May to take the same job at Navy. At his first preseason team media day Tuesday, Chambers said he’s still not sure what kind of style of play his team will employ, but he expects to take advantage of Frazier’s speed. “He’s a freak,” Chambers said about the 6-foot-1 junior. “His speed, his athleticism ... He’s a much better shooter than people give him credit for. His de-

Frazier said he worked hard in practice to make sure that Battle — the team’s leading scorer in each of the last four seasons — was always on

top of his game. Frazier called Battle “a big brother.” “Leading by example — that was one the main focuses he took care of every day in practice,” Frazier said. “That’s why he’s a 2,000-point scorer.” Frazier isn’t a natural scorer, but he said he’s willing to do anything it takes to help Penn State win. Chambers said that’s exactly what he wants from the team captain he calls “a stoic kid out there who plays with great energy and great passion.”

PHILADELPHIA — The Big East is ready to start adding members after spending the last month and a half losing them. A person familiar with the decision told The Associated Press the Big East will invite Boise State, Navy and Air Force for football only and SMU, Houston and Central Florida for all sports in upcoming days. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because the conference was not ready to announce its plan. Commissioner John Marinatto declined to elaborate on the Big East’s next moves after meeting with the league’s presidents at a Philadelphia hotel Tuesday. He said he expected the targeted schools to accept, but details still must be worked out with each. “As we’ve learned over the last two months, don’t believe anything anybody tells you. Nothing’s done until it is over. So I’m obviously being very cautious and that’s why I’m reluctant to say names of schools,” he said. Marinatto did acknowledge the league intends to expand west. Boise State and Air Force, both in the Mountain West Conference, and SMU and Houston, members of Conference USA, would be in the Big East’s western division, along with Louisville and Cincinnati. Navy, an independent, and UCF, also from CUSA, would be part of the league’s eastern division with Connecticut, South Florida, Rutgers and another school. The league would then likely play a conference championship game. The Big East has been working on a plan to add those six schools and reconfigure as a 12-team football conference since not long after Syracuse and Pittsburgh announced Sept. 18 they would be leaving for the Atlantic Coast Conference.

Luck is Chief reason KC’s smiling By DAVE SKRETTA AP Sports Writer

win the game in regulation with the ball at the 15-yard line and 48 seconds on the clock. Philip Rivers dropped under center, called for the snap — and never got the ball. It squirted under a pile, a fumble at the most inopportune time, and the Chiefs’ Andy Studebaker came away with it to keep San Diego from kicking a potential winning field goal. That allowed the game to reach overtime, and Ryan Succop ended it with a 30-yard field goal. “That was a lot of fun,” said Succop, who had three field goals in the game. “Everybody on our team fought as hard as they could. We put everything into it, and to come out on top is great.” The Chiefs are the first team in NFL history to lose their first three games and then move into at least a tie for a division lead after the next four. The overtime win forged a three-way tie with San Diego and Oakland.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — A couple of wins over division doormats. A shutout of a Raiders team playing without its starting quarterback. An inexplicable fumble that eventually led to an overtime victory. The Kansas City Chiefs realize everything has been going their way during a four-game winning streak, one that has taken them from NFL laughingstock to a tie atop the AFC West. That’s why coach Todd Haley warned everyone after a 23-20 overtime win over San Diego on Monday night to keep an even keel. Hard as that might be right now. “We’ve got some fighters,” Haley said. “They don’t care much what anybody says, they just believe in what they’re doing, and what they’re going to be, and what they’re going to accom-

plish.” What they’re going to accomplish is anyone’s guess. How could anyone have any clue after the dramatic turnaround they’ve already experienced? Left for dead after losing their first two games by a combined 89-10, the Chiefs (4-3) showed some resolve during a road loss to San Diego. They came back home and squeaked out a win over Minnesota, rallied from a big deficit to beat Indianapolis, and then beat the Jason Campbell-less Raiders last weekend to give them tons of momentum heading into a showdown with San Diego. Under the bright lights on Monday night, with a frenzied Halloween crowd on hand at Arrowhead Stadium, the Chiefs led the whole way against the division-leading Chargers. Still, San Diego had a chance to

BBQ eatery to open in ex-Thomas Deli site

Economy growing slowly U.S. manufacturing grew more slowly in October, held back by weaker demand for exports and slower production. The Institute for Supply Management said its manufacturing index dipped from 51.6 to 50.8. Any reading above 50 indicates expansion. Companies ordered more goods, factories slashed stockpiles and auto sales rose last month, trends that suggest manufacturing activity could rebound. And construction spending rose slightly in September, although total spending is still well below a healthy annual pace.

By BILL O’BOYLE boboyle@timesleader.com

WILKES-BARRE – Maers BBQ Off the Square will soon open in the site formerly occupied by Tony Thomas Deli, 50-52 S. Main St. Several people were in the building Tuesday cleaning and remodeling the restaurant for an anticipated December opening.

Macy’s flagship makeover

“We hope to open for latenight service by the middle of December,” said one of the owners, who declined to give his name. “We will offer breakfast, lunch and dinner once we’re open fulltime.” The windows are covered and signs are posted that indicate the restaurant will “open soon.” At their July 20 meeting,

the Luzerne County commissioners unanimously approved a community development business loan to Maers BBQ Off the Square. The approval was for a $47,725 loan to assist in financing a $97,399 project to establish a restaurant located at 50 S. Main St. – the former Thomas Deli site. According to the minutes of the commissioners’ meet-

sons section. Tony Thomas Sr. said they moved to South Main Street in 1994 at the urging of then-Mayor Lee Namey and then-Councilman Tom Leighton. Tony Sr. and his wife, Terry, are both 74. They said they look forward to spending time at their Lehigh Street home and they will still help Tony Jr. in his catering business.

ing, funding will be provided through the county’s Innovation Program and will be utilized for working capital, professional/financial fees and the purchase of machinery and equipment. Tony Thomas Deli closed Oct. 31. It was owned and operated by the Thomas family for 25 years. Their first deli opened in 1986 on George Avenue in the Par-

GREEK REFERENDUM RATTLES MARKETS

Macy’s announced Tuesday that it plans to spend about $400 million over the next four years to expand and overhaul its storied flagship location at Herald Square in Manhattan. The makeover will affect every floor and virtually every department. Renovations will begin in early spring 2012 and continue through the fall of 2015. Macy’s will add about 100,000 square feet of selling space for a total of 1.2 million square feet by opening up space currently used for stock and offices.

ADM earnings weaken

By HUGH SON Bloomberg News

Agricultural processor Archer Daniels Midland Co. said Tuesday its fiscal first-quarter earnings rose 33 percent mostly due to an accounting gain. Without the gain, its adjusted profit fell from a year earlier on weak margins in its oilseeds business and high corn costs. Adjusted for the accounting issue and other items, the company that has a 500,000-square-foot cocoa processing plant in the Humboldt North Industrial Park near Hazleton, earned 58 cents per share, down from 67 cents a year earlier. Net revenue rose to $21.9 billion from $16.8 billion.

pecialists Jennifer Klesaris and William Bott, right center, work at a post on the floor of the New York Stock S Exchange on Tuesday. Worries that a planned Greek referendum could scuttle a plan to resolve Europe’s debt crisis rattled markets. U.S. stock indexes fell around 3 percent after even larger declines in European mar-

kets. The Greek crisis has spooked markets for months as investors watch the broader European debt problem.

The Treasury Department says it has received $972 million from American International Group on Monday. The government provided AIG with $182 billion at the height of the 2008 financial crisis. Treasury has recouped $18 billion of the $68 billion it provided through the government’s Troubled Asset Relief Program. The rest of the money came from the Federal Reserve. The government still owns 77 percent of AIG’s common stock.

Trucks, SUVs help boost auto sales for October By DEE-ANN DURBIN and TOM KRISHER AP Auto Writers

DETROIT — Fans of SUVs and trucks shoved car buyers aside last month, helping propel sales in October to levels not seen since the start of the year. The shift was a boon for Detroit’s automakers, who posted sizeable increases in sales of pickups like the Chevy Silverado and Dodge Ram, big SUVs like the Ford Explorer and compact models like the Ford Escape.

NEW YORK -- Bank of America Tuesday abandoned plans to charge $5 a month for debit cards after a nationwide backlash from consumers and lawmakers. The bank canceled the fee, which would have started in January, after “listening to our customers very closely,” David Darnell, co-chief operating officer, said in a statement Tuesday. The lender also cited competitive pressure. Bank of America reversed course after rivals including JPMorgan Chase and Wells Fargo decided against similar charges, leaving the Charlotte, N.C.-based firm the only U.S. bank among the biggest five with plans to introduce the fee. Citigroup and U.S. Bancorp had already rejected the idea, while smaller SunTrust Banks and Regions Financial eliminated their check-card fees Monday. “For a lot of consumers, this was the last straw,” said Jean Ann Fox, director of financial services for the Washingtonbased Consumer Federation of America. Card issuers must now seek other ways to replace revenue lost after the government capped fees on debit-card transactions last month at about half the previous level. The limits, mandated by the Dodd-Frank Act, may cut annual revenue by $8 billion at the biggest U.S. banks, according to data compiled by Bloomberg Government.

year, some carmakers, including Hyundai and Volkswagen, continue to post impressive numbers and steal away their share of small car sales. Toyota and Honda, for years the category leaders, continued to struggle with earthquake-related shortages of popular models. U.S. car and truck sales were expected to top 1 million in October, a surprising number for a month when sales are usually slow. Analysts expect them to stay at that pace through the rest of this year and into next year. “The economy isn’t expect-

Excuse me, but may I take full credit for today’s weather since there is no doubt in my mind that skies will remain sunny through the afternoon with little or no wind. I’ll consider this day a payback for having to endure last Saturday’s nightmare. But the good news won’t stop here. A nearly stalled zone of high pressure will sponsor another fine day here Thursday with mild afternoon temperatures. A shallow cold front, probably dry, will pass through Thursday night followed by more gorgeous weather heading into the weekend, and a sunny Saturday would be the ultimate payoff. - Tom Clark

CREDIT UNIONS ARE READY FOR NEW MEMBERS

Nationwide movement urges customers of big banks to switch to credit unions (UFCW FEDERAL CREDIT UNION) -- With thousands of consumers pledging to move their money to a credit union by November 5th as part of “Bank Transfer Day,” UFCW FEDERAL CREDIT UNION reports it is ready to accept new members now. “Every day is a good day to join a credit union,” said John Hayduk, CEO of UFCW Federal Credit Union. “Now is the time to become one of more than 92 million Americans nationwide who are already enjoying the advantages of credit union membership.” Mr. Hayduk said consumers that do make the switch will find that on just about any given day, on average, credit unions offer higher returns on most savings, lower rates on most loans, and lower (or no) fees than other financial institutions. At UFCW FCU, we make it easy! We don’t just open your account – we set it up with Home Banking, Bill Payer and E-Statements for you. “Credit unions are unique among financial institutions,” Mr. Hayduk said. “Other financial institutions exist to maximize profits to their shareholders; credit unions exist solely to maximize service to their members. UFCW Federal Credit Union is recognized as one of the strongest financial institutions in our area.” (See www.bankrate.com). Mr. Hayduk states, “UFCW employees follow an old-school philosophy where you are considered family, not just a number to us. In addition, we take an active role in our neighborhoods through community service, such as distributing Gift Cards and Tropical Storm Lee Credit Union grants (PA Credit Union Foundation/Association) to our members affected by the flood. Annually, UFCW organizes our Community Fundraiser for local volunteer fire departments and the SPCA. In 2010, UFCW began offering Financial Literacy classes and a student run branch at Wyoming Area Secondary Center.” Think you can’t join a credit union? Think again! There is a credit union for everybody. “Make your best decision based on your needs and that of your family,” Mr. Hayduk added. “If you like saving money and conducting your financial business at a place that focuses on your needs, join UFCW Federal Credit Union today!”

age is one of those herbs chefs love to love. With its earthy, peppery perfume and textured leaves that fry crisp like chips or saute soft like blankets, it offers a range of savory sensations that can help pull together an elegant Thanksgiving menu. Sage is beloved around the world for its heady aroma and its ability to coax depth from nearly any ingredient. Primarily known for the way it enhances different meats — the veal and pork saltimbocca of Italy, the ham of Germany, even mutton in the Balkans — it also stars in vegetable dishes such as minestrone soup. Marinades are made from it, cheeses are studded with it, teas in China are brewed from it. The British pair sage with onions to flavor poultry and sausage. Sound familiar? Think traditional stuffing with sausage and sage, or the one here with cranberries; creamy and crisp roasted potatoes peppered with sage; and a golden turkey dappled with the almond-shaped leaves.

SAGE

TURKEY

Continued from Page 1C

“It’s almost effervescent. It has a great pronounced flavor,” says Scott Drewno, executive chef of The Source in Washington. And its ability to complement the other flavors of the season makes it a perfect choice for Thanksgiving. “It’s an herb that’s warming, like cinnamon, star anise,” Drewno says. “Those are spices and herbs that are warming. They’re ideal for the fall and the winter.” Sage also has the distinction of being both versatile and unique.

Place the turkey in the roasting pan on the rack, breast side up. Cover with foil and roast for 1 hour. Remove the foil and roast for another 1 to 1 1/2 hours, or until the breast meat reaches 160 F and the thickest part of the thigh reaches 170 F. Remove the rack and turkey from the roasting pan and cover with foil and a few kitchen towels to keep warm. Remove and discard the onion and carrot pieces from the pan. Place the pan over medium-high heat on the stovetop (it may rest over more than one burner, if so, turn on both) and add the wine. Scraping the bottom of the pan to loosen any browned bits, bring the juices to a simmer. In a small bowl, whisk together the broth and flour. While stirring continuously, pour the broth mixture into the pan. Bring to a boil and stir for 3 minutes. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Strain the gravy, if desired.

Perceived life of toil and thrift is 15-year-old’s tough row to hoe Dear Abby: I’m a 15-year-old girl who has never been in trouble, but my mom treats me like I’m a criminal. She makes me go to church every Sunday. She makes me go to Catholic school, and I have to wear an ugly uniform. She won’t help with my homework. She says, “I already did 10th grade.” I can’t wear halter tops, short shorts, a bikini or much makeup. If I tell her it’s the style, she says, “Modesty is always in style.” When I go out with my friends, she wants to know where I’m going, who I’ll be with, what we’ll be doing, when we’ll be back and their phone numbers. If I have a date with a new boy,

DEAR ABBY ADVICE she makes him come into the house and tell her what school he goes to. Then she makes him show her his driver’s license and car registration. I can’t keep my computer in my room. When I’m using it in the den, she looks over my shoulder and won’t let me go to chat rooms. If I can’t afford something, she tells me to save up or budget better. She won’t let me drive until I can pay for my own insurance. It’s not like my mom’s poor. We go to Hawaii and Lake Tahoe, and we’ve been to Europe and on cruises. But she won’t even pay for cable TV.

UNIVERSAL SUDOKU

She also makes me do my own laundry and keep my room and bathroom clean. She makes me do unfair chores like clean the guest bathroom even though I never ever use it. She wants to teach me to sew and cook, but I have no interest in those things. She makes me visit Dad every week, and if I complain about anything, she says, “You can always choose to live with your dad.” She told me as long as I live under her roof, I have to abide by her rules even if I’m over 18. And I have to go to college, and if I don’t, I’ll have to get a job and support myself. I could go on and on. Have you ever heard of a mother so unreasonable? I don’t know how much more of this I can take. — Emotionally Abused in California

CRYPTOQUOTE

Dear Emotionally Abused: Wow! Your letter should be posted on every refrigerator in the country. Rarely do I hear about a parent who tries as hard as your mother does to do a diligent job. One day you will look back and thank her. P.S. And if by chance this letter was written by your mother — congratulations for a job well-done. Dear Abby: I would like to know who gives singers the right to change the melody of “The Star-Spangled Banner” and “America the Beautiful”? Some of them who are featured on national TV don’t even get the lyrics right. Many of us would love to hear our national anthem without the additional flourishes. Isn’t anything sacred anymore? Am I alone on this

issue? — Not Tone-Deaf in Washington State Dear Not Tone-Deaf: You’re far from alone in feeling as you do. Our national anthem is notoriously difficult to sing, and the lyrics difficult to remember. However, performers are, to a greater or lesser extent, artists. And some artists can’t resist the temptation to add their personal interpretation to the classic, which has proved embarrassing for the singer and the listeners. To receive a collection of Abby’s most memorable — and most frequently requested — poems and essays, send a business-sized, selfaddressed envelope, plus check or money order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Morris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)

HOROSCOPE BY HOLIDAY MATHIS

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

ARIES (March 21-April 19). External things have never defined you. Some say what’s inside defines you, but that doesn’t quite fit now, either. You’re much bigger than your thoughts and feelings. TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Organizing yourself well is a talent. You’re pretty amazing at this now. You’ll leave the house knowing that you are prepared for every important occurrence and some of the unimportant ones, as well. GEMINI (May 21-June 21). You will do something nice just because it feels good to do it. You probably won’t give a thought as to what this will do for your karma, so the major karmic boost that results will be an unexpected bonus. CANCER (June 22-July 22). When you face a challenge, you’re not just facing it for you. You’re facing it for everyone who has ever and will ever be challenged in a similar way. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). It’s wide open for you right now. It’s as though destiny hasn’t put anything on the agenda for you, so do your thing. The only thing that is inevitable is what you decide upon. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). There’s someone you feel you can rely on in times of trouble, but it’s important to you that you reach out to this person in the good times, as well. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). Just when you thought you couldn’t be more in love with someone than you already are, a new surge of feeling swells up in you. Your capacity to love is endless.

MINUTE MAZE JUMBLE BY MICHEAL ARGIRION & JEFF KNUREK

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

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You still may be reacting to the painful aspects of your past. Your relationship with someone special will help you work through these issues in a lighthearted and positive way today. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). There are buried memories you’d rather not recall. And yet, if you have the courage to dredge up such a recollection, you’ll have a different take on it, which is a sign that you really have healed. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). The scene that unfolds is almost too funny to believe. It feels like you’re the only one who gets the joke, though. You wish someone would wink at you so you would know that you’re not alone in seeing the humor. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). Though you like to know you’ve made a good impression, it’s far more important that you be true to yourself. Otherwise, you’ll be acting out a part to gain favor, which after a while will be exhausting. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). A joint venture will work out well for you, but only because you take initiative and your partner follows suit. Ultimately, it’s your willingness to take action that will save the day. TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Nov. 2). You’re willing to move with the times, and so the future favors you. Your powers of concentration will be augmented. A new relationship blossoms in your nurturing sunshine. Invest in September. Pisces and Virgo people adore you. Your lucky numbers are: 4, 1, 35, 41 and 17.

PUBLIC NOTICE Federal Emergency Management Agency Draft Environmental Assessment Highlands Temporary Community Housing Site Tunkhannock Township, Wyoming County, PA The U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) has prepared a Draft Environmental Assessment (EA) pursuant to the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and FEMA’s implementing regulations. The Draft EA has been prepared for a proposed temporary community housing site for residents displaced by flooding in Wyoming County. Section 408 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act authorizes FEMA to provide emergency and temporary housing for eligible disaster victims whose homes are uninhabitable or destroyed as a result of a declared disaster event (FEMA-4030-DRPA). From September 3, 2011 through September 15, 2011, heavy rainfall from Tropical Storm Lee caused flooding in eastern and central Pennsylvania. Rainfall for this period ranged from 5.5 to 15 inches in a 48-hour period. Major rivers and their tributaries overflowed their banks inundating hundreds of communities in the Susquehanna and Delaware River watersheds for nearly a week. Direct housing assistance includes the provision of a manufactured housing unit on an available private, commercial park or community site location. Most of this demand will be met by placing a mobile home on an applicant’s private site if the site is located outside a floodplain, or providing a mobile home on an available pad leased in a commercial park. However, once these options are exhausted, FEMA estimates many applicants will still require housing, resulting in the need to develop a temporary (up to 18 months) community housing site. The Draft EA evaluates project alternatives and compliance with applicable environmental laws and Executive Orders #11990 (Protection of Wetlands), #11988 (Floodplain Management), and #12898 (Environmental Justice).
