The owner of a vehicle authorities say
was involved in a double fatal hit-and-run
crash early Sunday morning has four
drugged-driving convictions since 2003,
according to court records.
Walter Paul Raven, 59, of Industrial
Drive, Jenkins Township, was arrested
Sunday on charges unrelated to the crash
that claimed the lives of Donnie Pizano,
38, and Robin Walsh, 39, both of Plains
Township.
Pittston Township police allege Ravens
Buick struck a motorcycle Pizano was op-
erating on state Route 315 at about 12:20
a.m. Sunday. Walshwas apassenger onthe
motorcycle.
Pizano and Walsh were not wearing hel-
mets, according to the Luzerne County
Coroners Office.
Autopsies revealed Pizano and Walsh
died from multiple traumatic injuries re-
lated to the crash.
Jenkins Township police officer Dion
Fernandes spotted the Buick while Raven
and Daniel Antonini, 46, were allegedly
using a power washer to clean it Sunday
afternoon at Ravens residence.
Antonini told police Raven called him
Sunday afternoon and asked him to help
wash the Buick. Antonini stated Raven
toldhimthat Ravenwas inanaccident but
did not remember what he had struck, ac-
cording to arrest records.
After the Buick was found, police
learnedthere was anarrest warrant for Ra-
ven charging him with selling eight mor-
phine tablets to an informant in Exeter in
February 2011. Raven was allegedly found
on Sunday with pills without a prescrip-
tion.
Raven was charged with drug offenses
and jailed at the Luzerne County Correc-
tional Facility for lack of $30,000 bail. An-
tonini was charged with tampering with

Fairmount Township tax collector Do-
rethea Dohl owes $13,725 in back taxes on
her own properties, prompting public crit-
icism from Luzerne County Councilman
Edward Brominski.
Tax collectors should be above re-
proach. Its a travesty, Brominski said
Tuesday.
Dohl, whowas appointedbytownshipof-
ficials after the sudden retirement of the
elected tax collector, said Tuesday her fam-
ily has been struggled financially operating
a dairy farm.
Its a very difficult business, she said.
The family is in the process of selling its
dairy cows to focus solely on grain crops,
which should yield a profit, she said.
Dohl said a township official approached
her about the tax collector post because
others had declined the job after Theresa
Romans retirement.
She said she accepted the post in Febru-
ary because she has financial experience at
the farm and another family business.
Dohl said she didnt discuss her delin-
quent taxes with township officials, and
they didnt mention the issue. She said her
personal finances were examined to obtain
a requiredbond, whichprotects taxingbod-
ies if property taxes are lost or stolen.
She said her experience as a delinquent
taxpayer helps her better relate to town-
ship property owners who also are strug-
gling to pay. Dohl also said shes not ignor-
ing the obligation.
Theyre being paid, Dohl said.
Dohl and her husband, Larry, signed up
for a repayment plan last month with the
county tax claimoffice because their seven
properties, all in the township, were listed
in the Sept. 20 back-tax auction. Taxes are
owed for 2010 and 2011, records show.
Their next payment installment of
$1,236 is due Sept. 28, records show.
Property owners can keep their proper-
ties out of a sale if they stick to payment
plans, though the option is off-limits for

WILKES-BARRE City
police arrested Kaif Jones on
charges he waved a loaded gun
near the campus of Kings Col-

Jones, 25, of
North Main
Street, Wilkes-

charged with
illegal posses-
sion of a fire-
arm, possess-
ing a firearm
with an altered
serial number and firearms not
to be carried without a license.
He was jailed at the Luzerne

as Jones, was waving a gun in
front of Essex Hall on North

Jones walked across the
street and entered Vesuvios
Restaurant. An officer followed
Jones into the restaurant and
allegedly heard him say, I just
scared the (expletive) out of a
bunch of college kids. I should
have capped a couple of them,
the complaint says.
The officer grabbed Jones
and escorted him out of the
restaurant where a loaded gun
was allegedly found in his pock-
et.
Two students told police that
Jones was waving the gun and
asked them if they wanted to
buy some weed, the com-
plaint says.
WILKES-BARRE A man
was arraigned Tuesday on
charges he exposed himself to a
woman he solicited for sex.
Robert Darnell Dinkins, 22,
of Hutson Street, Wilkes-Barre,
was charged with two counts of
indecent assault, and one count
each of stalking, indecent expo-
sure, harassment and public
drunkenness. He was jailed at
the Luzerne County Correction-
al Facility for lack of $20,000
bail.
Police reported that a woman
said she was followed from the
Turkey Hill on Wilkes-Barre
Boulevard to her residence by a
man identified as Dinkins at
about 3:20 a.m. Tuesday.
She said Dinkins was in-
toxicated and exposed himself
to her, the complaint says.
Dinkins allegedly molested
the woman and licked her ear
while offering her money for
sex. When the woman ran into
her residence, Dinkins repeat-
edly knocked on her door, ac-
cording to the complaint.

LA PLUME Keystone College Presi-
dent Edward G. Boehm Jr. will step
down on June 1, after 18 years at the
helmof the private college that straddles
the Wyoming and Lackawanna county
lines.
Boehms presidential tenure is the
longest in Keystone Colleges 144-year
history. And his departure is the latest in
a recent string of long-tenured presi-
dents leaving local colleges.
In the past three years, six local col-
lege presidents have left or announced
theyll leave. They include:
Patrick F. Leahy replaced Tim Gil-
mour as president of
Wilkes University in
Wilkes-Barre on June
30. Gilmour retired.
The Rev. Jack
Ryan succeeded the
Rev. Thomas OHara
as president of Kings
College in Wilkes-
Barre in 2011. OHara has gone back to
teaching.
The Rev. Kevin Quinn was selected
to replace the Rev. Scott. R. Pilarz as the
president of The University of Scranton
in2011. Pilarz left toleadMarquette Uni-
versity in Milwaukee, Wis.
Mark Volk became president at
Lackawanna College in Scranton in July,
replacing Raymond S. Angeli, who re-
tired.
Michael A. MacDowell announced
he would leave Misericordia University
in Dallas Township in 2013. A nation-
wide search for his successor has begun.
According to a Keystone College re-
lease, at therequest of theschools Board
of Trustees, Boehmwill transition to the
role of president emeritus, continuing to
serve the college in various duties on
campus and in the community.
Keystone will begin a nationwide
search for Boehms successor, with an
announcement expected before the end
of the 2012-2013 academic year.
It has been a great privilege and hon-
or to serve as Keystones president for
nearly two decades, said Boehm, the
colleges ninth president. During that
time, Keystone has grown from a junior
college to one of the most respected bac-
calaureate institutions in Northeastern
Pennsylvania.
Boehm began his Keystone tenure in
1995, a time when enrollment had dwin-
dled to less than 400 students, and the
school was inneedof aninfusionof ener-
gy and enthusiasm.
Under his leadership, Keystone be-
came a baccalaureate college in1998and
granted its first bachelors degree to one
student in 2000. Since then, the college
has added academic programs and at-
tracted more students each year. During
the 2012 commencement ceremony,
Keystone conferred 355 degrees, the
vast majority of which were bachelors
degrees. Keystones total enrollment is
now nearly 1,800 students.

SCRANTON Attorneys for Wilkes-
Barre General Hospital are seeking to
appeal a federal judges ruling relating to
a class-action lawsuit that claims the
hospital improperly denied overtime
payments to employees.
The lawsuit, filed last year by Michele
Sakalas on behalf of herself and others,
alleges the hospital manipulatedthe em-
ployees schedules to avoid paying over-
time.
The case focuses on differences in
rules relating to overtime time pay-
ments ina40-hour, one-weekpayperiod,
compared to an 80-hour, two-week pay
period.
The hospital, which is owned by Com-
munity Health Systems, had a policy of
paying overtime only if an employee
works more than 80 hours in a two-week
pay period. Sakalas, a licensed practical
nurse, says she would be scheduled to
work 32 hours in one week, then 48
hours inthe secondweek, thereby allow-
ing the hospital to avoid paying over-
time.
The lawsuit claims that policyviolates
Pennsylvanias Minimum Wage Act.
Sidney Steinberg, an attorney for the
hospital, filed a motion to dismiss the
case, arguing the Minimum Wage Act
does not allow for lawsuits relating to
overtime.
The hospital also sought to enjoin the
union that represents nurses, arguing it
shouldbe heldliable for anydamages be-
cause the union approved the overtime
policy in question as part of a collective
bargaining agreement.
U.S. District Judge Robert Mariani re-
cently denied both motions.
Mariani acknowledged the minimum-
wage law does not explicitly cover dis-
putes regarding overtime. He noted nu-
merous prior appellate court rulings
that have allowed such claims under the
law, however.
Mariani also said the hospital could
not enjoin the union, finding that it was
attempting to attach liability by claim-
ing the union breached its duty to fairly
represent the nurses.
Defendants do not have standing to
assert a breach of the duty of fair repre-
sentation because the duty is owed by
the union to employees, not the employ-
ers, Mariani said.
Steinberg is now seeking to appeal
Marianis ruling to the Third Circuit
Court of Appeals. Mariani must grant
him permission to do so, however, be-
cause it involves a legal issue in a case
that is unresolved.
In his motion, Steinberg argues the
judge should permit the appeal because
it involves a legal interpretation of the
Minimum Wage Act. An appellate court
ruling on the matter would resolve the
case, either for theplaintiff or defendant,
without the necessity of going to trial.
Attorney Peter Winebrake, who repre-
sents Sakalas, filed court papers oppos-
ing the motion. Winebrake contends the
legal issue in question has previously
been decided by other courts; therefore
an appeal would not advance the case.

WILKES-BARRE A Glen
Lyon woman was sentenced
Tuesday to one to two years
in state prison on a drug
charge stemming from an in-
cident in which she shot and
killedamaninwhat was later
called a justifiable homicide.
Judge Fred Pierantoni sen-
tenced Amanda Rose Bow-
man, 30, on a charge of crimi-
nal conspiracy with intent to
deliver stemming from the
February 2011 shooting in-
sideasuspectedmethamphe-
tamine lab that left 44-year-
old Robert Muntz dead.
Pierantoni also sentenced
Bowmanto12 months of spe-
cial probationand25hours of
communi-
ty service.
Bow-
man, who
pleaded
guilty to
the charge
in April,
asked
through her attorney, John
Pike, that her sentencing be
delayed because of new drug
charges shefaces shehadal-
so been scheduled for a pre-
liminary hearing Tuesday
morning.
Bowman was charged last
month by Wilkes-Barre po-
lice after she was found sit-
ting in a Toyota Corolla on
East LafayettePlacewithtwo
other people. Police said the
vehicle was being used as a
mobile meth lab.
She was scheduled Tues-
day morning to appear for a
preliminary hearing, but that
hearing was continued until
Oct. 23.
Pierantoni said he would
not allow the sentencing to
be continued, but did allow
Bowman to remain at the
county prison, where she is
held for lack of $50,000 on
the new charges, until her
preliminary hearing is com-
plete.
Pike said his client denies
the new allegations.
Bowmantestifiedat anAu-
gust 2011 preliminary hear-
ingthat sheshot Muntzinthe
head with a .40-caliber hand-
gun after Muntz and several
other burst into her Hunlock
Township trailer.
Prosecutors later ruled the
shooting justifiable homi-
cide, noting Bowman acted
in self-defense.
Police said Bowman
shared the trailer with her
boyfriend, Jeffrey Layton,
and the trailer contained ma-
terials used to manufacture
meth. A total of nine people
where charged with drug-re-
lated offenses in that case.
Bowman also is facing ad-
ditional drug charges stem-
ming from an Aug. 31 arrest
in Newport Township. She is
scheduledtoappear for a pre-
liminary hearing on Sept. 26
for those charges.

XETER After a fire heavily damaged her Gricos restaurant building on Wyoming Avenue
last year, 65-year-old Pat Greenfield thought about retiring.
But Greenfield said she decided to rebuild the landmark eatery because so many customers and
friends have encouraged me to come back, Greenfield said Tuesday. That means a lot to me.
She plans to reopen in January.
As you walk through the ongo-
ing renovation project, you can
still smell the fire. But Greenfield
said that will soon be gone.
And as soon as we open, the
garlic will take care of that, she
said with a chuckle.
Greenfield said many people
ask her if the bar and the private
dining booths with curtains will
again be part of the dcor.
Yes to both of those ques-
tions, she said. We have expand-
ed our dining areas to allow for
more room for larger parties, but
we will retain the things that
made Gricos unique.
Seating capacity will be 110 to
120, she said.
And the remodeling has re-
vealed a few aesthetics that will
give the restaurant a softer din-
ing environment. For example,
workers uncovered a brick wall
and some glass blocks that will be
exposed and refurbished.
Greenfield vividly remembers
the night the building caught fire.

Second Mile wins delay
T
he Pennsylvania charity for trou-
bled youths started by convicted
pedophile Jerry Sandusky has won
court approval to delay its plan to shut
down and transfer programs and assets
to a Texas ministry.
A judge gave permission to The
Second Mile on Tuesday to postpone
the transfer plan until the resolution of
any damage claims filed by lawyers for
Sanduskys victims.
The charity was financially crippled
by the child sex abuse scandal involv-
ing Sandusky, the former Penn State
assistant football coach convicted in
June of 45 counts of sexual abuse.
The Second Mile intends to shift
programs and millions of dollars in
assets to Houston-based Arrow Child
& Family Ministries Inc.
KABUL, AFGHANISTAN
Bomber kills 25 at funeral
A suicide bomber killed at least 25
civilians and wounded another 30 at a
funeral for a village elder in a remote
part of eastern Afghanistan, Afghan
officials said.
Ahmad Zia Abdul Zai, a spokesman
for the provincial governor, said the
attack took place on Tuesday in the
village of Shagai in the Durbaba district
of eastern Nangarhar province. He and
other officials said at least 25 people
were killed.
Latifullah, the police chiefs secretary
who goes by one name, said the target
was apparently Durbaba district chief
Hamisha Gul, who was attending the
funeral for the village chief and ranking
elder.
Gul survived the attack, said deputy
police chief for Nangarhar province,
Jamil Shamal, but his son was killed
when he tried to stop the bomber by
grabbing him.
WASHINGTON
Social Security well armed
It didnt take long for the Internet to
start buzzing with conspiracy theories
after the Social Security Administra-
tion posted a notice it was purchasing
174,000 hollow-point bullets.
Why is an agency that provides bene-
fits to 56 million retirees, disabled
workers, widows and children stock-
piling ammunition?
One website suggested the agency
was preparing for civil unrest. And
comedian Jay Leno wondered just
which senior citizens the agency be-
lieves are about to storm its offices.
It turns out the bullets are for nearly
300 agents who investigate Social
Security fraud and made almost 600
arrests last year. Most of the ammo will
be expended on the firing range.

Ex-Komen VP pens book
Former Susan G. Komen for the
Cure vice president Karen Handel has
written a blistering insiders account of
the cancer charitys decision to halt
grants to Planned Parenthood and its
swift retreat in the face of an intense
backlash.
Titled Planned Bullyhood and due
for publication Sept. 11, the book de-
picts Planned Parenthood as a partisan
organization willing to weaken Komen
to further a liberal political agenda.
However, Handel a conservative
who resigned from Komen after its
reversal also assails Komens lead-
ership as indecisive and politically
nave.
Komen had been under pressure
from anti-abortion groups to end the
grants because of Planned Parent-
hoods role in providing abortions.

Trying to gain control of wildfire
A firefighting helicopter drops water on
a wildfire in the Angeles National Forest
north of Glendora, Calif., on Monday. A
day after the wildfire broke out near a
campground and forced the evacuation
of thousands of campers and picnick-
ers, it had grown to more than 4,100
acres, or roughly 6 square miles, and
was just 5 percent contained.
LAPLACE, La. At the urgingof res-
idents who have long felt forgotten in
the shadow of more densely populated
New Orleans, the Army Corps of Engi-
neers says it will look into whether the
citys fortifieddefenses pushedfloodwa-
ters into outlying areas.
However, the Corps has said its un-
likely scientific analysis will confirm
that theory suggested not only by lo-
cals, but by some of the states most
powerful politicians. Instead, weather
experts say a unique set of circumstanc-
es about the stormnot the floodwalls
surrounding the NewOrleans metro ar-
ea had more to do with flooding
neighborhoods that inrecent years have
never been under water because of
storm surge.
Isaac was a large, slow-moving storm
that wobbled across the states coast for
about two and a half days, pumping wa-
ter into back bays and lakes and leaving
thousands of residents under water out-
side the massive levee system protect-
ing metropolitan New Orleans. It was
blamed for seven deaths and damaged
thousands of homes on the Gulf Coast.
The Corps study was prompted by
the suggestion that Isaacs surge
bounced off the levees and floodgates
built since Hurricane Katrina in 2005
and walloped communities outside the
citys ramparts.
Blaming the Army Corps of Engi-
neers is nothing new in southern Loui-
siana, a region that is both dependent
on the Corps and by instinct distrustful
of an agency that wields immense pow-
er inthis worldof harbors, wetlands, riv-
ers and lakes, all of which fall under the
agencys jurisdiction.
The Corps was roundly criticized af-
ter Hurricane Katrina, which pushed in
enough water to break through the lev-
ees that had surrounded New Orleans.
Much of the city was left underwater,
and since then the government has
spent millions rebuilding the system of
floodwalls protecting the metro area.
Before that, the Corps was blamedfor
the unraveling of coastal marshes by
erectinglevees onthe Mississippi River.
In towns like the bedroom communi-
ty of LaPlace, people want answers.
There, communities were under water
even though they had never before
flooded because of storm surge.
It has a lot of us questioning, said
Ed Powell, a 47-year-old airport emer-
gency worker whos lived in LaPlace for
15 years and had never seen flooding on
his street until Isaac hit.
On Friday, U.S. Sen. David Vitter
asked the Corps to commission an inde-
pendent study to determine if the new
floodwalls, gates and higher levees
aroundgreater NewOrleans causedwa-
ter to stack up elsewhere.
In a statement, the corps said it ex-
pects the study will find minimal
changes insurgeelevationbecauseof its
works around New Orleans. It based
that assessment on previous modeling.
The agency said it would not comment
further until the scientific work is done.

JERUSALEM Israeli offi-
cials said Tuesday they are in
close discussions withthe United
States over how to deal with the
Iranian nuclear program, seeking
to ease tensions that have
emerged between the two allies
over a possible Israeli military
strike against Iran.
The dialogue, inwhichIsrael is
looking for President Barack
Obama to take a tough public po-
sition against Iran, suggests the
odds of an Israeli attack in the
near term have been reduced.
Israel, convinced that Iran isnt
taking seriously U.S. vows to
block it from acquiring nuclear
weapons, believes that time to
stop the Iranians is quickly run-
ning out. A series of warnings by
Israeli officials in recent weeks
has raised concerns that Israel
could soon stage a unilateral mil-
itary strike. In response, senior
American officials have made
clear they oppose any Israeli mil-
itary action at the current time.
After tense exchanges with the
Americans, Israeli political and
defense officials said Tuesday
that the sides are now working
closely together in hopes of get-
tingtheir positions insync. Clear-
er American assurances on what
pressure it is prepared to use
against Iran, including possible
military action, would reduce the
needfor Israel toact alone, the of-
ficials said, speaking on condi-
tion of anonymity because they
were discussing a security mat-
ter.
There was no immediate
American comment Tuesday, as
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu huddled with his se-
curity cabinet for a daylong brief-
ing by military intelligence on
Irans nuclear program.
Netanyahu has criticized the
international community for fail-
ing to curb Irans nuclear pro-
gram. In recent days, he has
called for the world to set a clear
red line for the Iranians. His
comments were seen as veiled
criticism of President Barack
Obama.
Israel has not publicly defined
its own red lines, which might in-
clude a deadline for Iran to open
its facilities to U.N. inspectors or
a determination that Iran has de-
finitively begun enriching urani-
um to a weapons-grade level.
Israel believes Iran is trying to
develop nuclear weapons, a
charge the Iranians deny.
White House press secretary
Jay Carney on Sunday played
down any differences, saying
there is absolutely no daylight
betweenthe UnitedStates andIs-
rael whenit comes to the necessi-
ty of preventing Iran fromacquir-
ing a nuclear weapon.

WASHINGTON A for-
mer Navy SEALs insider ac-
count of the raid that killed
Osama bin Laden contains
classified information, the
Pentagon said Tuesday, and
the admiral who heads the Na-
val Special Warfare Command
said details in the book may
provide enemies with danger-
ous insight into secretive U.S.
operations.
Rear Adm. Sean Pybus told
his force Tuesday that hawk-
ing details about a mission
and selling other information
about SEALtrainingandoper-
ations puts the force and their
families at risk.
For an elite force that
should be humble and disci-
plinedfor life, we are certainly
not appearing to be so, Pybus
wrote ina letter tothe roughly
8,000 troops under his com-
mand. We owe our chain of
command much better than
this.
The letter was obtained by
The Associated Press.
At the Pentagon, press sec-
retary George Little saidanof-
ficial review of the book, No
Easy Day, determined it re-
veals what he calledsensitive
and classified information.
He was not more specific but
said the author was required
to submit the book to the Pen-
tagon before publication for a
formal review.
When you have special op-
erations units that perform
these missions, there are tac-
tics, techniques, and proce-
dures, not to mention human
life, that are in play, Little
said. And it is the height of ir-
responsibility not to have this
kind of material checked for
the possible disclosure of clas-
sified information.
He told reporters during a
briefing the Pentagon is still
reviewing what legal options
should be taken.
Pybus, in his letter, was
more direct, saying that, We
must immediately reconsider
howweproperlyinfluenceour
people in and out of uniform
NOT to seek inappropriate
monetary, political, or celebri-
ty profit from their service

BEIRUTMore than100,000 Syrians
fled their country in August, the highest
monthly total since the crisis began in
March 2011, the U.N. refugee agency said
Tuesday.
That exodus sharply increased the
number of Syrians now living in neigh-
boring countries, bringing the total num-
ber of refugees to 234,368 in the past 17
months, the agency said.
Along with activists reports that the
death toll in August was also the highest
inthe civil war with5,000 killed, all signs
are pointing to unprecedented levels of
misery in a country where President
Bashar Assads regime is fighting an in-
creasingly violent rebellion.
If you do the math, its quite an aston-
ishingnumber, U.N. refugee agency spo-
keswoman Melissa Fleming said of the
number of people who fled in August,
speaking to reporters Tuesday in Gene-
va.
And it points to a significant escala-
tion in refugee movement and people
seeking asylum, and probably points to a
very precarious and violent situation in-
side the country, she said.
But eventhe August figure only counts
refugees who are registered and those
awaiting registration. Officials acknowl-
edge the real number of Syrian refugees
is likely way above 200,000, because tens
of thousands are believed to have not yet
contacted authorities.
The uprising began with largely peace-
ful protests of Assads regime but has
turned into a civil war that activists say
has killed at least 23,000 people.
As Syrians look to escape the blood-
shed, Assad told the head of the Interna-
tional Committee of the Red Cross on
Tuesday that the group is welcome to op-
erate in Syria as long as it remains
neutral and independent, state media
reported.
Assad has accused the international
community of conspiring to unseat him.
ICRC spokeswoman Rabab al-Rafai
did not give further details about Assads
meeting with Peter Maurer in Damascus
but said the Red Cross chief also met
Deputy Foreign Minister Faysal Mekdad
andtheheadof theSyrianArabRedCres-
cent.
President Assad confirmed Syria wel-
comes the humanitarian operations that
the organization is conducting on the
ground in Syria as long as it works in a
neutral and independent way, the state-
run SANA news agency quoted Assad as
saying.
Maurers three-day visit, which began
Monday, comes as the need for human-
itarian assistance grows increasingly ur-
gent.
According to the U.N. refugee agency,
there are now more than 80,000 Syrian
refugees in Turkey.

WILKES-BARRE A
Scranton man was sentenced
to 18 months probation for
his role in an assault on two
people in Wilkes-Barre in
August 2011
Judge Fred Pierantoni
sentenced Jesus Cervantes,
33, of Church Avenue, on a
charge of simple assault.
Cervantes attorney, Mark
Singer, said his client is not a
U.S. citizen, and his immigra-
tion status may be affected
by the conviction. Cervantes
said Tuesday, through an
interpreter, he is in the proc-
ess of becoming a U.S. citi-
zen.
According to court papers,
Pablo Sosa and Theresa
Velazquez said they were in
their Moyallen Street resi-
dence on Aug. 3, 2011 when
they heard banging at the
front door. Sosa opened the
door and was allegedly
struck by Gabriel Nieves.
Sosa said David Nieves and
Cervantes hit him in the
head and body with weapons,
the complaints say. Police
said Velazquez tried to stop
the fight but was pulled from
the house by Jenny Nieves,
Lydia Nieves and Lisa Nieves
and beaten.
David Nieves, 25, of Mid-
land Court, was placed into
the ARD program for one
year in June. Several others
involved have also been sen-
tenced.
COURT BRIEF
WILKES-BARRE A city
man was sentenced Tuesday
to 14 years probation on pos-
session of child pornography
charges.
Gregory Fann, 49, of Maple
Lane, pleaded guilty to six
counts of possession of child
pornography. Fann was
charged after police searched
his home in connection with
homicide charges his son,
Gregory Fann Jr., faced in
2008.
Senior Judge Joseph Augel-
lo said Fann will be required
to register his address under
Megans Lawfor a period of 10
years and will undergo an
evaluation by the state Sexual
Offenders Assessment board
to determine if he is a sexually
violent predator.
Augello said if Fann is de-
termined to be a predator, he
will have to register under
Megans Law for his entire
life.
Fann, a karate teacher, also
will have to inform his clients
and their parents of the
Megans Law requirements
and have their signature in
writing acknowledging they
understand Fann has commit-
ted related offenses.
Fann was charged after
state police said they uncov-
ered the child pornography
on computers and compact
discs inside Fanns locked
bedroom while investigating
the deadly shooting of Aaron
Witko, 19, of Tunkhannock,
under the Wilkes-Barre Rail-
road Connecting Bridge in
Edwardsville on May 29,
2008.
Fanns son, Gregory Fann,
25, was convicted in the kill-
ing of Witko after a non-jury
trial before Luzerne County
Judge Joseph Augello in Feb-
ruary 2010. The younger Fann
was sentenced to life in pris-
on.
We moved here to get out
of a bad situation, the elder
Fann said before being sen-
tenced Tuesday. And were
still dealing with bad situa-
tions.
Fann said he moved here
from New Jersey with the in-
tent to stay only a short while
before moving elsewhere, and
he hopes to eventually undo
the bad name his family has
been given.
Fanns attorney, Mark Sing-
er, noted no allegations had
been made against Fann re-
garding his karate clients.
Singer also said Fann has no
prior criminal record.
Assistant District Attorney
Nancy Violi said she had no
objection to a probationary
sentence for Fann, but asked
that it be a lengthy one and
that Fann have no unsuper-
vised contact with minors.
Fann must complete sexual
offenders treatment, Augello
said.
Fann had also been indicted
by a federal grand jury in Feb-
ruary 2009 on child pornogra-
phy charges. He had faced
several years in prison on
those charges.
Those charges were eventu-
ally withdrawn by prosecu-
tors.
Probation sentence
set for child porn
Gregory Fann, 49, of
Wilkes-Barre, pleaded guilty,
faces predator assessment.

FUNERAL FOR FALLEN TROOPER
ED LEWIS/THE TIMES LEADER
L
aw enforcement officers from Luzerne, Schuylkill and Columbia counties and officials
from the state capital police department in Harrisburg attended the funeral for state
police Trooper Royce E. Engler on Tuesday. Engler, 27, of Dorrance Township, died from
injuries in a motorcycle crash in Montour Township near Bloomsburg on Aug. 29. Engler
was off-duty when he was killed. Engler was assigned at the Troop N barracks of the state
police based in West Hazleton. His father, Royce Engler, is the police chief in Wright Town-
ship. Englers services were held at the George A. Strish Funeral Home, Main Street, Ash-
ley, where a two-mile procession of police cruisers lined up on Manhattan Street. Services
were held in St. James Lutheran Church in Mountain Top. Engler was buried in Emmanuel
Cemetery in Dorrance Township.
WILKES-BARRE Wilkes-
Barre Area School District resi-
dents who own property in
Wilkes-Barre Township and on-
ly Wilkes-Barre Township have
an extra two weeks to pay their
district property taxes and still
qualify for a 2 percent discount.
To encourage prompt pay-
ment, the district offers a 2 per-
cent discount if taxes are paid by
a deadline set each year. This
year the deadline in Wilkes-Barre
Area is Sept. 13. For most resi-
dents, that hasnt changed.
But in Wilkes-Barre Township,
the deadline has been pushed to
Oct. 1.
The move was made because
the company hired to collect the
property taxes in the township
Don Wilkinson Agency has
gone out of business and Berk-
heimer Associates was hired to
do the job.
The Wilkinson Agency had
sent out bills and started collect-
ing taxes in the township, but ran
into problems and closed its
doors.
At a special meeting last week,
the School Board voted to turn
the collection contract over to
Berkheimer. Wilkinson had al-
ready arranged to transfer collec-
tion paperwork and duties to
Berkheimer, so the board vote
was largely procedural.
The board also voted to extend
the discount deadline for town-
ship property owners. But the
Sept. 13 deadline remains in ef-
fect for property owners in other
municipalities within the dis-
trict, because Berkheimer was al-
ready handling collection every-
where except Wilkes-Barre
Township.
Berkheimer will be sending
out new bills to township resi-
dents, along with a letter explain-
ing the change, District Business
Manager Leonard Przywara said.
The shift should not affect
those who opted to pay their tax-
es in three installments, Przywa-
ra said, because the first install-
ment was due last month. Berk-
heimer may ask those who have
already made tax payments to
provide a check number so the
company can followup and make
sure the books are in order, he
added.

Aug. 26, 2011. Since then, the
process of rebuilding has slow-
ly moved forward and nowcon-
struction is in full operation.
Greenfield said the decision
to come back didnt require a
lot of thought.
It just happened, she said.
Ive been busy with my cater-
ing business, but Im looking
forward to reopening the res-
taurant.
Some days Im thrilled;
some days I think Im crazy,
Greenfield said. Its been a dif-
ficult, difficult year.
She hasnt plannedher menu
yet, but customers will surely
be able to choose from their
past favorites.
Greenfield has owned the
restaurant that first opened in
1935 for 27 years. She notes
other family-owned mom-
and-pop restaurants have
closed, like Hottles in Wilkes-
Barre.
The economy has had an ef-
fect, she said. A lot of people
go to the chain restaurants.
Greenfield was busy over the
Labor Dayweekendat her at La
Festa Italiana stand in Scran-
ton.
We worked three 20-hour
days, she said. We had to pre-
pare, sell and clean up every
day.
Greenfield said most of her
20 or so Gricos employees are
coming back. She said she may
have to hire a few new people.
She was voted Best Chef

and her tomato sauce won the
Sauce Wars at the Pittston

DIMOCKTWP. -- The state
Department of Environmen-
tal Protection is investigating
a reported spike in methane
levels inside a trailer in Di-
mock early Saturday morning
andwhether thereis anassoci-
ation with nearby natural gas
development.
DEP spokeswoman Colleen
Connolly said the department
was contactedafter a methane
alarm sounded in the home
occupied by Williamand Tam-
ara Horn of Carter Road
around midnight Friday into
Saturday. She said one of the
residents voluntarily went toa
local hospital for evaluation.
The trailer is owned by Ron
and Jean Carter of Carter
Road.
Methane levels in the home
had dissipated by the time
DEPinvestigators arrived Sat-
urday afternoon, but the de-
partment has openedaninves-
tigation and will review sam-
ples collected by a private en-
vironmental testing company
hired by the family and by Ca-
bot Oil and Gas.
The home is in an area
where DEP had previously de-
termined Cabot had contami-
nated the aquifer with high
levels of methane. The depart-
ment later determined the
company had met its obliga-
tions under a consent order
and agreement and gave Ca-
bot approval to stop bulk wa-
ter deliveries to the area. Ca-
bot was given approval to re-
sume hydraulic fracturing in
Dimock at the end of August.
Cabot spokesman George
StarksaidTuesdaythe compa-
ny has not yet resumed frac-
turing there.
Stark said Cabot took read-
ings and found no detectable
amounts of methane in the
house or around the structure
and no evidence of a hazard-
ous situation. The company
took water samples and is
awaiting test results.
Connolly said DEPs inves-
tigation is looking at all ar-
eas, including possible links
to gas drilling andto the histo-
ry of naturally occurring me-
thane migration in the region.

Franklin has been canvassing the
South Wilkes-Barre neighbor-
hood where her 14-year-old
daughter, Briyanna Miles, was
last seen two weeks ago.
Franklin said she was told the
girl has been abused by a few
men, who she claims are moving
her daughter around to different
houses.
We dont know where she is,

tothedaywhenher daughter fled
her Spring Street home after an
argument withher father, Lovelle
Young, about cleaning her bed-
room on Aug.
21. We as a
family are
grieving and
want to know
where she is.
Franklin has
posted flyers in
Wilkes-Barre,
KingstonandEdwardsville about
Miles disappearance.
Franklin reported her daugh-
ter missing to Wilkes-Barre po-
lice but feels law enforcement is
not doing its best to find her. She
said police did search a house in
the 100 block of Sambourne
Street and learned her daughter
had stayed there after she left her
residence.
Wevebeenout lookingfor her
until 3:30 in the morning on
some nights, Franklin said.
Weve been told she was at the
Sambourne Street house and at a
house on South Franklin Street.
Franklin said she was also told
Miles was seengettingintoa gray
Infiniti outside a store in Ed-
wardsville in recent days.
Miles does not useFacebookor
Twitter and had her cellphone
taken from her, Franklin said.
Franklin said police have
Miles cellphone.
Franklin is hosting a march to
raise awareness to find Miles this
Saturday beginning at 10 a.m. at
Kirby Park and proceeding to
Public Square.
Police did not release informa-
tion about their search for Miles,
who left her home wearing a
white tank top, black and white
stone wash jeans, and black flat
shoes.
Anyone with information
about Miles is asked to call
Wilkes-Barre police at 826-8106

SWOYERSVILLE Borough
council must make minor chang-
es to two ordinances to apply for
grant money from the state De-
partment of Environmental Pro-
tection.
Both the recycling and refuse
ordinances nowincludeoutdated
language. The termrefuse now
includes grass, glass and card-
board, items that nowmust be re-
cycled.
These ordinances were
passed years ago and do need to
be amended, said borough Sec-
retary Gene Breznay said Tues-
day.
A proposed ordinance direct-
ing these changes had its first
reading and is expected to suc-
ceed at Octobers meeting.
In another matter, council ad-
dressed a neglected property at
430 Slocum St.
Zoning Officer Joe Ruscavage
saidhespoketotheowner anddi-
rected him to clean up and main-
tain the property. He said that al-
though the grass had been cut, it
still was out of compliance with
borough ordinances and re-
mained condemned.
Solicitor Joseph Yeager said
that if the property was not
brought into compliance, he
would file something with the
magistrate.
Council also accepted the re-
signation of police Cpl. Ethan
Wentzel, who has accepted a po-
sition with the state police.

Pestered resident wants
noise law in Pittston
I
support the new Pittston noise ordi-
nance.
With the sound equipment available
today, having the wrong kind of neighbor
can be a living hell. This is something I
have experienced firsthand and, believe
me, it is rough when you cannot open your
windows in the summertime.
People need to have some control.
Dogs and cats also are a problem. Some
residents have two or more dogs and mul-
tiple cats. Barking dogs can be a noise
problem, but multiple cats running free
can be a serious health problem. They can
carry fleas and disease, potentially making
them a danger to humans and other cats.
Pittston has a good ordinance for this
problem, but it must be enforced.
We also need some type of construction
ordinance. There are people who hammer
and run a power saw, especially on Sun-
days, for projects lasting five or more
years. We must be able to have peace and
quiet sometime. There must be a time
limit, especially in a residential area.
I urge the Pittston council to pass the
noise ordinance. Other communities have
noise ordinances, why not Pittston?

Writer praises Mundy
for real ideas, solutions
T
he following statement on the website
of state Rep. Phyllis Mundys election
opponent tells voters all they need to
know about him: Pennsylvania state legis-
lators receive $163 a day on top of their
salaries just for showing up to work.
Anybody who has traveled on employer-
related business knows that per diems are
not bonuses for showing up to work, but
flat reimbursements for reasonable and
necessary lodging, meals and similar ex-
penses. Their purpose is to save the em-
ployer the expense of processing itemized
receipts, which would on average probably
equal the per diem. It is therefore impos-
sible to misuse a per diem, despite what
this Web page says.
The fact that Mundys opponent needs
to insult the intelligence of voters with
arguments of this nature suggests that he
has little to offer the 120th District or
Pennsylvania in terms of genuine ideas or
constructive solutions. Thoughts on genu-
ine health care reform are, for example,
conspicuously absent from his website.
Mundy has, in contrast, played a leading
role in developing and introducing non-
partisan and science-based legislation to
address the root causes of rising health
care costs. The effect of this legislation is
to encourage health care providers to im-
plement quality management systems,
which would in turn reduce health care
costs by 30 to 60 percent while eliminating
80 percent or more of all medical errors,
hospital-acquired infections and other
harm to patients. Both the American So-
ciety for Quality and the Automotive In-
dustry Action Group have advocated this
approach.
Mundy approaches issues from an im-
partial and scientific, rather than a parti-
san or ideological, perspective. This is a
characteristic that is far too rare among
legislators, although state Rep. Eddie Day
Pashinski (121st District) is another exam-
ple.
This is why both of these legislators
deserve our votes in November.

Dems use dirty tactics
to misrepresent Romney
L
etter writer Patricia Snyder, I feel badly
that you apparently have been so misin-
formed (Reader has bad feeling about
Romneys bid, Aug. 20). I dont blame
you, as I might believe the same if I had
not researched further, and if I still be-
lieved everything the mainstream media
report.
If I demanded that you show me your
financial records and you refused, I then
could proclaim: Patricia must be hiding
something sinister. She cannot be trusted.
Thats based solely on the fact that you
refused to show me something that you
were within your rights not to show me.
No, you are not running for president,
but the point is that I would have given the
illusion that you are hiding something
when you are only protecting your rights. I
would simply be a bully who wanted to
disparage your name and used dirty tactics
to do that.
President Barack Obama knows that
Romney has shown everything that he is
required to show, but because he has al-
most totally destroyed our economy, these
dirty tactics are all he has left. And its sad
that his tactics seemingly have worked on
unsuspecting people.
What do we actually know about Oba-
ma? Very little! I am also a senior citizen,
far from wealthy, and I used to be a Demo-
crat until I caught on to their lies, decep-
tion and manipulation using fear to make
us believe that the opposition will hurt us,
when it is they who are hurting us.
Mitt Romney is an honest man who is
simply trying to save our country, our
Social Security, our Medicare and our
freedoms.

Lawmakers neednt
worry about benefits
I
read the article System fixable, but
choices tough (Aug. 21) by Associated
Press writer Stephen Ohlemacher with a
great deal of interest. This letter will ad-
dress only one of the many concerns that I
have had for years about the Social Securi-
ty fix.
Why do our legislators and hopefuls
always talk about saving a system that is
funded by the people who will receive this
money upon retirement? The folks who
pay in have never raided the fund for pet
projects. Left alone, the system can and
will work.
What I found missing or lacking in the
statements by the current and contending
legislators is that there is no mention of
their retirement benefits. In fact, I have
never heard mention that these benefits
might run out or evaporate. So I pose
this question to all who seek to retain or
gain public office: Who do you think pays
for your benefits?
The sad part, America, is that these
folks need to serve only six years to qualify
for lifetime benefits, again, without the
fear of the fund becoming bankrupt. Thats
one senatorial term or three terms in the
House.
Can we have Ohlemacher or one of The
Times Leaders reporters follow up with
these concerns?

Reader chides center
for failing to keep doctor
I
t is a great sadness that The Henry Can-
cer Center at Geisinger Wyoming Valley
has let a prestigious oncologist such as
Dr. Rodrigo Erlich slip through its fingers.
He brought to our area a wealth of
knowledge and expertise. Many patients
traveled out of state to seek his unique
methods of treatment.
My husband was diagnosed three years
ago with pancreatic cancer told by his
physician to get his affairs in order. Today
he is doing very well, only one of many
examples.
Dr. Erlich apparently is more vocal than
most at the center in protecting his pa-
tients regimens of treatments and too
often criticized for it. Shame on the non-
expert suits for not putting their differ-
ences aside.

SEND US YOUR OPINION
YOU CAN ONLY run on

hope and change once,
a top political adviser to
Mitt Romney said last
week. Therein lies the chal-
lenge for President Obama as
Democrats assemble in Char-
lotte to nominate himfor a sec-
ond term in the White House.
With the nation gripped by
joblessness and the fear that
this economic decline is per-
manent, Obama and his party
need to find a new message to
convince voters that he de-
serves four more years. This is
a far more daunting task than
they faced in 2008, when the
economy was entering a steep
dive and U.S. combat troops
were fully engaged in two wars
that were sapping the nations
strength and morale.
At that time, the collapse
convinced voters that a young
newcomer to national politics
could steer the nation back to
prosperity. Today, the young,
fresh-faced senator who vowed
to deliver on a range of prom-
ises has become a battle-
scarred incumbent.
By all means, Obama should
defend his record. Theres
nothing wrong with bragging
about gettingbinLaden. It aint
bragging if its true. He inher-
ited a recession deeper than
any since the Great Depres-
sion, and by any measure the
economy is stronger today
than it was in 2008, when 4.4
million jobs were lost during
President Bushs last year in of-
fice, according to the Bureau of
Labor Statistics.
And, yes, his task has been
made immeasurably harder by
the unprecedented level of ob-
struction from congressional
Republicans.
But there has to be more to a
presidential campaign than
blaming the other guys for ev-
erything. Americans are look-
ing for someone who can in-
spire a sense of purpose andop-
timism, precisely what Obama
did last time around but has
failed to deliver lately.
This week, he must unveil a
new approach, one that prom-
ises to yield more progress. No
one wants a replay of the last
four years.

OTHER OPINION: CAMPAIGN 2012
Obama had better
alter his agenda
O
N TUESDAYS som-
ber anniversary of
the September 2001
terrorist attacks
against the United States, you
can take solace in these two
things:
1) The presidential cam-
paigns of Barack Obama and
Mitt Romney will not air elec-
tion advertisements, a wel-
come if short-lived moratori-
um on political posturing
thats intended as a show of
national unity. (If only those
mud-slinging super PACs
would follow suit.)
2) Millions of people
around the globe and hope-
fully as near as your house
will perform good deeds and
acts of kindness to commemo-
rate the victims at ground ze-
ro and beyond, rekindling the
sort of selfless giving that mo-
tivated many Americans on
that dreadful day 11 years ago.
Both these positive devel-
opments can be credited to
the same organization, My-
GoodDeed.org. The nonprofit
fosters the notion of marking

with a guinea pig named
Ringo on your back.
Maggie Hornung beamed like
a little cherub as the class pet
gave new meaning to the term
piggy back during the official
start of Wyoming Seminarys
new toddler program Tuesday,
nestling briefly on the back of the
youngster sprawled on the floor.
Soft carpet under you and fuzzy
fur ball on top? Maybe theyve in-
vented a new relaxation tech-
nique.
The newprogramtakes in chil-
dren from 18 months to 3 years
old, up to five days a week the
school is flexible on how many
days a child shows up, as long as
the total count per day stays at 10
tykes, Director of Admissions Ka-
tie Callahan said. Thats five for
each of the two teachers.
The goal is to give the toddlers
early lessons in independence,
self care and social skills, as well
as a head start in their education.
Shes already learning letters,
one proud mother said while
watching her child through a
one-way windowset up to let par-
ents checkontheir childrenwith-
out being seen.
Thats one of the features built
into a converted home next to
Wyoming Seminarys Lower
School, which now houses both
the newtoddler programand the
existing pre-school for 3- and 4-
year-olds. Theres alsoa changing
station with hide-a-way stairs the
youngsters can use to get onto, a
kid-size bathroomarea separated
by a wall high enough for toddler
privacy but still allowing adult
supervision, and alarms on the
exterior doors that give a gentle
but firm notice someone is leav-
ing.
And theres a super-soft play ar-
ea outside, made of artificial turf
on top of extra bouncy rubber.
Maggie headed straight for the
Playskool cop car. Cash Harrison
opted for the pint-size sliding
board, only he didnt want to take
time running around the back to
theladder; hestartedworkinghis
way up the slide before turning
around at the top and enjoying
the descent. The new early edu-
cation building officially
dubbed Arlington House sits
across the Lower School parking
lot, fronting Arlington Road. It
currently handles13 toddlers and
19 pre-school children. Along
with a full day of activities from9
a.m. to 3 p.m., there is before-
school care beginning at 8 a.m.
and after-school care until 5:30
p.m., Callahan said.

years in county prison when
Wilkes-Barre police said he
was under the influence of co-
caine while operating a vehi-

was paroled in March 2010.
Acounty judge sentenced
Raven to 72 hours in jail on
charges he was driving a vehi-
cle while under the influence
of cocaine in Wilkes-Barre on
Sept. 12, 2004.
He was also sentenced to
48 hours in jail on separate
counts of DUI on Dec. 31 and
Nov. 29, 2003, according to
court records.
Preliminary hearings are
scheduled on Sept. 11.

Brominski said he sympa-
thizes with property owners
facingfinancial difficulties but
said all tax collectors should
be current on their own prop-
erties because urging timely
payment is one of their pri-
mary duties.
He raisedthe tax delinquen-
cy issue at last weeks county
council meeting during a dis-
cussion on options for county
tax collection.
County officials have been
stressing the need for all tax
collectors to strive for high
collection rates. Some tax col-
lectors contact property own-
ers by phone to remind them
to pay.
The countys new home
rule government gives council
the power to stop using 69
elected tax collectors or re-
duce their pay. Electedtaxcol-
lectors are paid $3.50 per bill.
Council members said they
need more research and dis-
cussion before voting on the
matter. A decision must be
made by the end of the year
because tax collector seats are
on the ballot in 2013.

U.S. Sen. Bob Casey told the Pennsylvania
delegation Tuesday morning the focus is on pre-
serving Medicare as we know it. The senator
said there is a stark difference between the Dem-
ocrats plan for Medicare and the Republicans
proposal.
This is not just an issue in the presidential
race, Casey, D-Scranton, said. This is a major
issue in my race and in all other congressional
races. The Democratic Party wants to assure that
the guaranteed Medicare benefit doesnt change.
Matt Cartwright, Democratic candidate for
congress in the 17th District, a pro-life candidate,
missed the first day of the convention to attend
Labor Day events in his district. He said he re-
ceived a special invitation to Charlotte to rub
elbows with Democratic Party big-wigs.
I felt I needed to be there to help become an
effective congressman in 17th District, he said.
David Gliddon, 35, of Nanticoke, is a voting
delegate at the convention. Hes a professor in the
Colorado Technical University online program.
Gliddon said he has been busy since he got off the
plane in Charlotte.
Ever since I got here Ive been attending meet-
ings and events, he said. Im focused on learning
as much about the partys education platform. Im
also interested in learning about innovations in
leadership and creating jobs. Its definitely going to
be a learning experience.
Gliddon said he and other members of the
Northeastern Pennsylvania convention delegation
are constantly sending out messages on Twitter.

CONVENTION NOTEBOOK
Energy Services was obviously disappointed
with the boards decision, but said the decision of
whethertoappeal therulingwouldbemadebyUGI
after reviewing the important facts of that ruling.
Reachedbyemail after themeeting, UGI Energy
ServicesspokeswomanLillianHarrissaidthecom-
pany will be considering an appeal of the deci-
sion.
UGIEScontinuestomaintainthat thisproject is
beneficial tothe WyomingValleyandit will be pur-
suing the project to fruition, Harris said.
Harris and Persico said UGI considered a num-
ber of possible station locations and selected the
West Wyoming site because its proximity to the
boththeTranscopipelineandtheSaylorAvenuefa-
cility wouldprovide for anefficient flowof gas.
As the testimony explained at the last hearing,
thatnotonlywasaremotearea, butanefficientarea
as well, Persico said.
The many residents of West Wyoming and sur-
rounding communities opposed to the project,
however, took issue with UGIs characterization of
the site as remote.
I think its more just a nice quiet neighborhood;
itsnot aremotearea,saidJaniceMetzo, aFireCut
Roadresident whosepropertybordersKalinoskys.
An industrial park would be more appropriate
somewhere where theres not so many people.
Thisisimportant forthefutureof mygrandchil-
dren,saidMarionPacovski, anotherFireCutRoad
resident wholivesjust overtheWest Wyomingbor-
der in Kingston Township. Hopefully, theyre go-
ing to be someday living where Im living and we
dont want this industrial activity inour area. It be-
longsinanindustrial area, notanagricultural area.
DuringanAug. 7publichearingthat lastedmore
than five hours and was attended by well over 100
opponents of the project, area residents also ex-
pressed concerns about the volume of emissions
the station would produce, its potential impact on
public health, its effect on property values, emer-
gency access routes andstorm-water runoff.
Nancy Dolan of Exeter, a member of Luzerne
County Citizens for CleanAir, challengedthe loca-
tionof the facilityinanagricultural district onzon-
ing grounds at that meeting.
My hope is that UGI as a responsible corpora-
tion considers the message the people have sent
andlooks for a reasonable alternative for the place-
ment of a polluting facility like this, Dolansaidaf-
ter Tuesdays meeting.
The West Wyoming Borough Council and state
Rep. Phyllis Mundy, D-Kingston, also publicly op-
posedthe project.
The residents of West Wyoming were not in fa-
vor of this, so were pleased with the decision,
West Wyoming Council President Eileen Cipriani
said.
At least one area resident attending Tuesdays
meeting, though, saidhesupportedUGIs planand
was disappointedwiththeboards decision. Wayne
Weaver of Northmoreland Township, Wyoming
County, saidhehassignedagasleasebutthinksthe
delayscausedtoprojectslikethepipelinelessenthe
likelihoodthat awell will bedrilledonhisproperty.
He added that Kalinosky should have the right to
use his property as he sees fit.
Heownedthat property; hepaidtaxesonit, and
people who had nothing to do with it shouldnt be
able to tell himwhat to do withit, Weaver said.
UGIs compressor station would also require ap-
proval from Luzerne County Planning Commis-
sion, the state Department of Environmental Pro-
tectionandtheLuzerneConservationDistrict, but
UGI cannot beginbuilding the compressor station
without zoning approval. Natural gas pipelines do
not require zoning approval.

anddescribingherself asthemominchief,madeno
mention of Republican challenger Mitt Romney. But
those who preceded her to the podium on the first
night of the presidents convention were scathing.
If Mitt were president, hed fire the reindeer and
outsource the elves, declared former Ohio Gov. Ted
Strickland in one biting speech.
Tapped to deliver the keynote address, San Anto-
nio Mayor Julian Castro said Romney was a million-
airepoliticianwhoquitesimply, doesnt get it when
it comes totheneeds of themiddleclass. Referringto
the Republicans support for mandatory healthinsur-
ance when he was governor of Massachusetts, he
added, Gov. Romneyhas undergone anextreme ma-
keover, and it aint pretty.
Polls made the race for the White House a tight
one, almost certain to be decided in a string of eight
or10battlegroundstates whereneither thepresident
nor Romney holds a clear advantage. There was am-
ple evidence during the day of an underperforming
economy, including a report that saidmanufacturing
activity declined for a third straight month and the
governments debt exceeded $16 trillion at the close
of the business day.
There was no end to the appeals for donations to
Obamas re-electioncampaign, fallingfurther behind
Romneyincashonhandwitheachpassingmonth. If
you think Baracks the right man for the job, please
showyour support with a donation of $5 or more to-
day, the first lady emailed supporters a little more
than 90 minutes before her speech.
She walked out to the crowds cheers as the band
played Stevie Wonders Signed, Sealed, Delivered
ImYours, thesonghesangonstageat Obamas Den-
ver convention ifour years ago.
Believe it or not, when we were first married, our
combined monthly student loan bills were actually
higher than our mortgage, she told the convention.
We were so young, so in love and so in debt.
She confided that at family dinners in the White
House with her and their daughters, the president
joins in strategizing about middle school friend-
ships.
Mrs. Obamaspoll numbersarebetter thanher hus-
bands, andher speechwas aimedat buildingsupport
for him, much as Ann Romneys remarks at last
weeks Republican National Convention were in ser-
vice to her husbands presidential ambitions.
Whenit comestorebuildingour economy, Barack
is thinking about folks like my dad who worked at
amunicipal water plant andhis owngrandmother,
a bank secretary, the first lady said.
Referring to her own children as well as those of
others, shesaid, If wewant togivethemthat senseof
limitless possibility, that belief that here in America
there is always something better out there if you are
willing to work for it, then we must ... stand together
for the man we can trust to keep moving this great
country forward, my husband, our president, Presi-
dent Barack Obama.
Castro, the first Hispanic chosen to deliver a key-
note address, was unsparing in criticizing Romney,
suggesting the former Massachusetts governor
might not even be the driving force on the GOP tick-
et.
First theycalledit trickledown, thesupplyside,
he said of the economic proposals backed by Repub-
licans. Now its Romney/Ryan. Or is it Ryan/Rom-
ney?
Either way, their theory has been tested. It failed.
...Mitt Romney just doesnt get it, Castro said. Rom-
neys running mate is Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan.
Republicans did their best to rain on Obamas con-
vention, whatever the weather.
Vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan spoke in
Westlake, Ohio, standing behind a lectern bearing a
sign that read Are you better off?

Stephon Morris had to be cart-
ed off.
Bill Belton was on crutches.
As if the loss wasnt tough
enough to deal with on Saturday,
PennState alsolost twokey start-
ers to injuries.
Bill OBrien is optimistic that
both his starting tailback and his
senior corner-
back will be
ready to go this
week against
Virginia.
Those guys
are day-to-day,
the Penn State
coach said
Tuesday at his
weekly press
conference.
Theyre both
ankle issues,
and theyre not
serious, so well
have to wait
and see.
If they dont
practice by
Thursday or
Friday, then
probably theyll
be out of the
game, but right now I would say
its day-to-day. Its probable. But
again, wont really know until
Thursday.
If Belton is unavailable, senior
Derek Day would likely get the
start andtheNittanyLions would
use a committee approach to the
running game. That might in-
clude using true freshman Akeel
Lynch, who did not play in the
opener.
The decision you have to
make there (with) a true fresh-
man, if youre going to play those
guys, then youd better actually
play them, OBrien said. So
were going to see how practice
goes this week with Akeel, and
well make a decision on that lat-
er in the week.
Morris was replaced in the li-
neup on Saturday by another roo-
kie in DaQuan Davis, who would
likely start in Morris place if
needed.
Second-guesses
When Ohio changed things up
in the second half and began
dropping linebackers into cover-
age more often to take away un-
derneath passes, Penn State was
unable to counter by getting the
ground game in rhythm.

sophomore Gre-
ta Ell said. I was shaking wait-
ing for this. We even got corn-
rows we were so excited.
Ell saved all that excitement
for the field, though, posting a
goal and an assist for Redeemer
(1-0 WVC). She set up the first
goal of the game with a 30-yard
pass right onto the stick of Mar-
nie Kusakavitch in the seventh
minute.
Kusakavitch fired a blast from
just inside the circle into the goal
for a 1-0 lead.
As soon as I got the ball, I saw
their left side was very strong,
Ell said. So I looked to our left
side and Marnie was there, so I
fired it up to her. She dribbled in-
to the circle and took a fantastic
shot.

Evan Longoria hit a go-ahead

beat New York 5-2 on Tuesday
night to drop the struggling Yan-

Coupled with

themselves for

WILKES-BARRE With un-

match, Coughlins Travis Keil
had an opportunity to give his
teamthe lead. Unfortunately for
the sophomore, his shot was off
target, sailing over the net.
Less than a minute later, he
had another chance that was
nearly identi-

This time, he
connected
from about 15
yards out with
54 seconds re-

game to lead
the Crusaders to a 2-1 victory
over Crestwood in a Wyoming

BY ROXY ROXBOROUGH
BOXING REPORT: In the WBC/WBA super middleweight title fight on September 8
in Oakland, California, Andre Ward is -$320 vs. Chad Dawson at +$260.
Tonights featured race this evening takes place in the tenth, thats
where Green Day is ready to flash his skills. The eight-year old veter-
an son of Enjoy Lavec has indeed enjoyed a superb career for trainer
Jim Raymer, winning $1,156,578 along the way. The former Yonkers
Trot winner has been facing much stiffer competition of late in New
York, racing in the Open ranks with the likes of Aruba Vacation and
Scorpion Moon. He tackles no such competitors this evening, and
with the drop in class I look for driver Howard Parker to take the
classy trotter tothe front early andnever lookbackas a muchthe best
winner in that $13,000 Conditioned Trot.

the Royals to a two-goal lead.
But the Spartans (1-1 WVC)
came roaring back. Atrio of pen-
alty corners established pres-
sure, and a flurry of shots on the
last corner a blast by Nicole
Sott, followed by Sott dishing to
AlexGonda andMaura Anistran-
ski trying to put the rebound
home -- led to a penalty stroke.
It was a tad bit different of a
game, but we adjusted to it,
Spartans coach Linda Fithian
said.
Anistranski went low to the
stick side tobeat Selina Malacari
on the stroke for her fourth goal
of the season.
Six minutes later, Anistranski
set up Gonda for her second goal
of the season on a tip-in from a
corner to knot the game at 2.
It was a very good game,
Fithian said. We could have
scored more, but the goals just
werent falling for us. It wasnt
from a lack of effort.
Valley West continued to at-
tack, but Malacari was up to the
task. Anistranski had her blast
from the circle on a corner de-
flect towardthe topcorner of the
goal.
Malacari reached over her
headtoswat downthe highshot.
Ell cashed in a rebound of a
Melanie Kusakavitch shot with
less than two minutes remaining
in the first half.
(Melanie) had a very hard low
shot and the goalie kicked it right
out at me, Ell said. The ball was
right there, so I lifted it over the
goalie (Jocelyn Polney).
Chelsea Skrepenak tapped
home a drive by Marnie Kusaka-
vitch in the 52nd minute to es-
tablish a second two-goal lead.
Valley West battled, but was
turned away by the Royals de-
fense the rest of the way.
Lily Shemo had a defensive
save on a first half corner for the
Spartans and Haley Gayoski
turned aside a rebound attempt
in the second half in support of
Polney.

Furyk, Stricker
among Ryder picks
NEW YORK Davis Love
III became the third straight
U.S. captain to pick a Ryder
Cup rookie, and the first cap-
tain since 1997 who had to
spend a pick on Jim Furyk.
Love filled out his 12-man
team Tuesday by selecting
Furyk, Steve Stricker, Dustin
Johnson and Brandt Snedeker,
one of four Ryder Cup rookies
who will be playing in a team
competition for the first time
as a pro.
Johnson and Snedeker, in
effect, played their way onto
the team the last two weeks
as the only Americans to
finish among the top six in
both FedEx Cup playoff
events. It was a performance
that made it difficult for Love
to ignore.
The Ryder Cup is Sept.
28-30 at Medinah outside
Chicago. Even though Europe
has dominated this competi-
tion since 1995 it has won
six of the last eight times it
has won on U.S. soil only
twice in the last 20 years.
The eight Americans who
qualified three weeks ago
were Tiger Woods, Masters
champion Bubba Watson,
Jason Dufner, Keegan Bradley,
U.S. Open champion Webb
Simpson, Zach Johnson, Matt
Kuchar and Phil Mickelson.
COLLEGE FOOTBALL
Tide rolls to polls
top spot over USC
NEW YORK Alabama is
the new No. 1 in The Associ-
ated Press college football
poll, moving past Southern
California after its resounding
victory against Michigan.
The Crimson Tide swayed
more than enough voters with
its 41-14 win Saturday night in
Texas to overtake the presea-
son No. 1 Trojans, who beat
Hawaii 49-10. USC entered
that game a 40-point favorite
at home.
The Tide receives 45 first-
place votes, up 28 from last
week. USC draws 11 first-place
votes and No. 3 LSU four.
Its the 47th time Alabama
has been No. 1, the 16th under
coach Nick Saban.
NFL
Browns CB Haden
appeals 4-game ban
CLEVELAND Joe Ha-
dens case remains mysterious
and unresolved.
The Browns cornerback,
and one of Clevelands best
players, is awaiting word from
the NFL on a possible four-
game suspension for failing a
drug test. On Tuesday,
Browns president Mike Holm-
gren revealed in a local radio
interview that Haden has
already had his appeal hear-
ing with the league.
Holmgrens comments were
the first confirming Hadens
suspension, which was first
reported by espncleveland-
.com last month. Haden re-
portedly failed a test for tak-
ing Adderall, which is on the
leagues banned substance
list.
NASCAR
Logano will join
Penske Racing in 13
MOORESVILLE, N.C.
Penske Racing announced
Tuesday that Joey Logano
will join the team in 2013 and
drive the No. 22 Ford in the
NASCAR Sprint Cup Series.
The 22-year-old Logano is a
two time Cup Series winner
in his fourth full season. He is
leaving Joe Gibbs Racing for
the seat that opened when AJ
Allmendinger was released
after a failed drug test.
Logano was also the young-
est winner in Nationwide
Series history when he won at
Kentucky at the age of 18 in
2008. A year later, he won at
New Hampshire to become
the youngest winner ever in
Cup Series competition. He
was the 2009 Sprint Cup
Series rookie of the year.

game. The toughness did seem
to affect Crestwood more, how-
ever.
After already being calledfor a
yellowcard earlier in the game, a
Comet player was givenasecond
card with about 27 minutes left
in the second half. A new PIAA
rule states that any player given
two yellow cards in the same
matchwill nowget a redcard, in-
stead of a soft red card.
This means the player is dis-
qualifiedandhis teamhas toplay
with just 10 on the field instead
of 11 the rest of the game. With
the soft red, the player was dis-
qualified but didnt have to sit
out the next game and his team
wasnt shorthanded the rest of
the game.
So the Comets were at a mis-
match on the field, but still kept
the Crusaders out of net for
about 26 minutes by playing de-
fensive-minded with seven play-
ers behind the ball. Crestwood
even had a few opportunities to
try to score, but came up empty
during the disadvantage.
We didnt plan for such a
thing. They didnt know how to
adjust to the system once we
went to a man down, Comets
coach Pat Upton said. We knew
Coughlin was going to be a
tough opponent and the boys
playedtheir butts off. They came
out. They were prepared. They
were hungry. We were just dealt
the wrong cards.
Okun scored the matchs first
tally with16:00 remaining in the
first half. He was lined up for a
free kick and after it ricocheted
off a few bodies, he netted the
goal from about 20 yards out for
a 1-0 lead.
I just shot it and let it go.
Thats it, Okun said.
The Comets didnt waste
much time evening the score. A
little more than 3 minutes later,
John Andrews had control of the
ball and with Coughlin keeper
Josh Featherman on the near
side of the goal, Andrews had a
shot and drilled it. Even though
he was about 35 yards away, he
nailed the shot on the far side of
the net to tie the score at 1-1with
12:45 left in the first half.

NEW ORLEANS The NFL
Players Association has asked a
federal judge for a temporary re-
straining order that would allow
players suspended in connection
with the NFLs bounty investiga-
tion to rejoin their teams in time
to play regular season openers.
The union, whichfiledthe mo-
tion Tuesday on behalf of New
Orleans defensive end Will
Smith, Cleveland linebacker
Scott Fujita, and free agent de-
fensive lineman Anthony Har-
grove, argues theplayers will suf-
fer irreparable harm if they are
forced to miss games while their
case against the league pro-
ceeds.
Suspended Saints linebacker
Jonathan Vilma had already filed
a similar motion when his full-
season suspension began earlier.
The other three players suspen-
sions began this week.
The players ultimately want
their suspensions thrown out be-
cause they argue the disciplinary
process was fundamentally
flawed and unfair.
U.S. District Judge Ginger
Berrigan, who is hearing the
case, has said she found the
leagues handling of the bounty
matter to be unfair to the players
and their punishments exces-
sive, but she has also said she is
not yet comfortable that federal
courts have jurisdiction to rule
on a process that was collective-
ly bargained between the union
and the league.
She has already indicated, in
response to Vilmas earlier re-
quest for a temporary restrain-
ing order, that she was inclined
towait until players hadexhaust-
ed their remedies under the
leagues collective bargaining
agreement before she ruled.
Still pending on that front is a
decision by a three-member pan-
el that last week heard argu-
ments in the NFLPAs appeal of a
system arbitrator Stephen Bur-
banks rulingthat Commissioner
Roger Goodell had the authority
both to punish the players and
hear their appeal in the bounty
matter.
The union had argued that be-
cause actions alleged in the
bounty matter happened on the
field, the leagues labor agree-
ment calls for someone other
than the commissioner to hear
players appeals of the commis-
sioners disciplinary action.
The three-member panel has
indicated that it hoped to rule by
this week. If it rules in favor of
the players, Berriganwouldhave
no reason to act.
The NFLhas saidits investiga-
tors have concluded that the
Saints ran a bounty program
from the 2009 through 2011 sea-
sons. The league said the pro-
gram offered improper cash bo-
nuses to defensive players for
hits that injured opponents.
The players have admittedtoa
pay-for-performance program
for big plays such as turnovers
and big, clean hits, which also is
banned but cannot be punished
by suspensions. However, they
have denied, some under oath in
federal court, that there was a
pay-to-injure program.
In addition to the four players
suspended, the league also sus-
pended Saints head coach Sean
Payton the entire season, Saints
general manager Mickey Loomis
for half the season, andSaints as-
sistant headcoachJoeVitt for six
games. Former Saints defensive
coordinator Gregg Williams,
who is nowwith St. Louis and al-
legedly administered the bounty
pool, has been suspended indefi-
nitely.

Bounty bans brought to judge
Players Association wants
current and former Saints to
be able to play this weekend.
The Associated Press
Allen Pinkett will have two
more weekends to think about
what he said.
The Notre Dame radio ana-
lyst was suspended two more
games without pay after com-
ments last week that it was
good to have a few "criminals"
on a football team. Sitting out
the Irishs opener against Navy
was considered part of a three-
game suspension in total.
"After careful deliberation
and thorough discussion, we
believe the right decision is to
allow a truly repentant Allen
Pinkett an opportunity to re-
turn to the booth beginning
with the fourth game of the
college football season," the
Notre Dame IMG Radio Net-
work said in a statement Tues-
day.
Pinkett, in a statement, said
he offered a "most sincere and
heartfelt apology to all those
affected by my inappropriate
comments."
In an interview with WSCR-
AM last week, Pinkett said he
"always felt like, to have a suc-
cessful team, you have to have
a few bad citizens on the
team," adding that Notre
Dame "is growing because
maybe they have some guys
that are doing something wor-
thy of a suspension."

M A J O R L E A G U E B A S E B A L L
TORONTO Mark Rey-
nolds hit a three-run homer,
Zach Britton pitched seven
innings to win his fourth
straight start and the Balti-
more Orioles moved into a
first-place tie in the AL East
with a 12-0 victory over the
Toronto Blue Jays on Tuesday
night.
Baltimores third consecutive
victory coupled with the Yan-
kees loss at Tampa Bay gave
the Orioles a share of first
place in September for the first
time since 1997, the last time
they won the division and
advanced to the playoffs.
Reynolds went 3 for 4 with
four RBIs as the Orioles pound-
ed out a season-high 18 hits.
Recalled from Triple-A Nor-
folk to face the Blue Jays, Brit-
ton (5-1) allowed four hits and
improved to 4-0 with a 0.94
ERA in four starts since his last
loss on Aug. 1 against New
York. The left-hander struck
out eight and walked two, one
intentional.
Kevin Gregg worked the
eighth and Zach Phillips fin-
ished for the Orioles, who have
won three straight and 21 of
29.
Struggling Toronto was held
scoreless for the second
straight game and has dropped
four in a row.
Reynolds hit his 17th homer
off Carlos Villanueva in the
fifth. It also was his fifth homer
in five games.
Nate McLouth added a sacri-
fice fly in the sixth, and the
Orioles pulled away with a
three-run seventh. Robert
Andino chased Villanueva with
a sacrifice fly, Aaron Loups
balk scored Manny Machado
and J.J. Hardy singled in Nick
Markakis.
Mechanical troubles with the
retractable roof at Rogers Cen-
tre left the field slippery and
damp during the middle in-
nings as rain fell inside the
stadium. The team apologized
to fans after the roof was un-
able to close at the normal
speed, leaving many people
opening umbrellas to protect
themselves from the elements.
Indians 3, Tigers 2
DETROIT Justin Mas-
terson pitched six solid in-
nings, and the Cleveland Indi-
ans beat Detroit 3-2 on Tues-
day night for their second
straight victory over the play-
off-chasing Tigers.
Miguel Cabrera hit a two-run
homer for Detroit, but the
Tigers missed another opportu-
nity against a struggling team.
Masterson (11-12) allowed two
runs and four hits. He walked
one and struck out four.
Four relievers finished, with
Chris Perez pitching a perfect
ninth for his 34th save in 38
chances.
Rick Porcello (9-11) allowed
three runs and eight hits in 5
2-3 innings.
The Indians had lost 29 of 35
before taking the first two
games of this series.
Royals 6, Rangers 3
KANSAS CITY, Mo. Jere-
my Guthrie pitched seven
strong innings and the Kansas
City Royals got home runs
from Alex Gordon and Johnny
Giavotella in a 6-3 victory over
the Texas Rangers on Tuesday
night.
Gordon broke a 2-all tie in
the fifth with a two-run shot off
Matt Harrison, the third home
run he has allowed to a left-
handed hitter this season.
After Salvador Perezs run-
scoring double with two outs,
Harrison was replaced by Roy
Oswalt. It was a rare short
night for Harrison (15-9), who
has pitched at least eight in-
nings in eight starts. He fell to
10-5 away from home, tied with
Tampa Bay ace David Price for
the most road victories in the
American League.
A M E R I C A N L E A G U E R O U N D U P

CINCINNATI Jay Bruce
homered for the third straight
game on Tuesday night, hitting
a two-run shot that sent the
Cincinnati Reds to a 2-1 victory
over the Philadelphia Phillies
with first baseman Joey Votto
watching from the bench.
Votto was activated off the
disabled list before the game,
but didnt play. Cincinnati went
32-16 without him, taking
control of the NL Central.
Bruces 31st homer in the
sixth inning ended a four-game
winning streak by Kyle Ken-
drick (8-10). Bruce has home-
red in four of his last five
games.
Mat Latos (12-4) gave up one
run on a bases-loaded walk
and four hits in seven in-
nings. Jimmy Rollins doubled
off Latos in the fifth inning,
making him the fourth Phillies
player to reach 2,000 career
hits.
Rockies 6, Braves 0
ATLANTA Carlos Gon-
zalez hit his second home run
since July 23 to give Colorado
the lead, Jordan Pacheco also
homered and drove in two
runs, and the Rockies beat the
Atlanta Braves 6-0 on Tuesday
night.
Four pitchers combined on a
nine-hit shutout. Carlos Torres
(4-1), who took over after start-
er Drew Pomeranz lasted only
three innings, threw three
scoreless frames. He allowed
three hits with no walks and
three strikeouts.
Cardinals 5, Mets 1
ST. LOUIS Jaime Garcia
carried a shutout into the
eighth inning and Yadier Moli-
na got his 1,000th career hit
with an infield single that start-
ed a three-run second against
rookie Matt Harvey in the St.
Louis Cardinals 5-1 victory
over the New York Mets on
Tuesday night.
Daniel Descalso and David
Freese had two hits and an RBI
apiece for the Cardinals, who
are 42-26 at home for the sec-
ond-best mark in the National
League. St. Louis will go for a
three-game sweep Wednesday
with Adam Wainwright facing
17-game winner R.A. Dickey.
Nationals 11, Cubs 5
WASHINGTON Adam
LaRoche hit two of Washing-
tons six homers, Ian Desmond
had four RBIs and the Nation-
als beat the Chicago Cubs 11-5
on Tuesday night.
LaRoche and Jayson Werth
had four hits apiece for the NL
East-leading Nationals, who
opened a season-high 7
1
2-game
advantage in the division. Sec-
ond-place Atlanta lost to Col-
orado 6-0.
Brewers 8, Marlins 4
MIAMI Norichika Aoki
and Jeff Bianchi each homered
and drove in three runs for the
Milwaukee Brewers in an 8-4
win over the Miami Marlins on
Tuesday night.
Ryan Braun drove in Mil-
waukees other two runs to
give him 98 RBIs, which leads
the National League.
Pirates 6, Astros 2
PITTSBURGH Andrew
McCutchen had his major
league-leading sixth four-hit
game of the season and drove
in three runs to lead the Pitts-
burgh Pirates past the Houston
Astros 6-2 on Tuesday night.

The Orioles Matt Wieters, center right, celebrates an RBI against
the Blue Jays during the eighth inning of Tuesdays game in To-
ronto.
nings and Upton delivered back-
to-back solo shots in the fifth,
givingAlexCobb(9-8) andTam-
pa Bays bullpenall the offensive
support theyd need against the
Yankees sputtering lineup.
Robinson Cano matched a ca-
reer high for New York with his
29th homer, a two-run shot off
Cobb, who allowed four hits
over seven innings. Fernando
Rodney earned his major
league-best 42nd save in 44 op-
portunities.
The Yankees, who have lost
five of six, finished with six hits.
It was the fifth consecutive
games theyve been held to six
or fewer their longest such
stretch since going six straight
from Aug. 30 to Sept. 5, 1990.
It appearedDickersonwanted
timeout in the fourth, but Ran-
dazzo did not grant it and Dick-
erson went down looking to end
the inning. Dickerson didnt
seem to like the call and mo-
ments later Girardi came storm-
ing out of the dugout, yanked
his cap off his head and argued
face-to-face with Randazzo.
Before heading back to the
dugout, Girardi kicked dirt in
the batters box.
Alex Rodriguez went 1 for 4
with a ninth-inning infield hit in
his second game since spending
six weeks on the disabled list
with a broken left hand. Curtis
Granderson returned to the
starting lineup after sitting out
most of two games with a sore
right hamstring and went 0 for
3.
Cano played despite experi-
encing tightness in his left hip
reaching for a grounder that got
past him for the game-deciding
hit during the eighth inning of
Mondays 4-3 loss to the Rays.
He got treatment following the
game and again early Tuesday
before Girardi penciled himinto
the lineup.
The slugger has at least one
hit in 13 of 14 games against
Tampa Bay this season, includ-
ing the past 11 a stretch in
which hes batted .438 (18 for
42) against a pitching staff that
currently leads the major
leagues in ERA, opponents bat-
ting average and the AL in
strikeouts.
Longoria homered for the
sixth time in 26 games since be-
ing activated following a three-
month stint on the disabled list
with a partially torn left hamstr-
ing. It was his10thof the season,
coming on a 2-2 pitch after Gar-
cia prolonged the inning with a
two-out walk to Ben Zobrist.
Jennings and Upton homered
five pitches apart to begin the
fifth. Upton, who hit a solo shot
off CC Sabathia in Mondays se-
ries opener, also doubled on a
3-0pitchtodrive inTampa Bays
first run of the night.
Garcia allowed five runs and
five hits in 5
1
3 innings. The loss
was the right-handers first since
July 30, even though Garcia had
not pitched particularly well in
two recent starts in which he
wasnt involved in the decision
against the White Sox and Indi-
ans.

Well before Bill OBriens name
entered the rumor mill before
Chris Petersen and Mike Mun-
chak and Dan Mullen and most
every other name you could
think of there was Mike Lon-
don.
Just days after Joe Paterno was
fired back in November, Lon-
dons name was the first to sur-
face as a possible successor when
The Washington Post reported
that Steve Garban then the
chairman of Penn States Board
of Trustees hadreachedout toa
third party to gauge Londons in-
terest.
The reply came back quickly.
London was just fine being the
head coach at Virginia, thank
you.
I love the jobthat I have, Lon-
don said Tues-
day at his week-
ly press confer-
ence when
asked about the
situation. I
love this place,
I love this com-
munity and I
love the players here and what
this university stands for.
That always happens. There
are always people throwing your
name out there and then it grow-
ing legs, and all of a sudden, its a
centipede and you have all kind
of people talking about it. Flat-
tering, perhaps, being men-
tioned. But at the same time my
focus is here, and this is where I
want to be.
The Cavaliers are happy to
have him. A former Virginia as-
sistant coach and head coach at
FCS Richmond, London is the
reigning ACC Coach of the Year
after ending the Cavs three-year
bowl drought with an 8-4 season
in 2011.
Now in his third year at the
helm in Charlottesvile, London,
a former cop, has Virginia back
on the upswing.
London and OBrien shared a
similar upbringing as coaches
and even faced off against each
other during OBriens stops
through the ACC at Georgia
Tech, Maryland and Duke.
Weve met, London said. I
think that you follow guys ca-
reers fromafar. Inparticular now,
playing Penn State, you appre-
ciate the job that he has and the
task that he has of getting his
team prepared and ready to play,
despite all the obstacles and
things that occurred there.
As such, London said that he
and his staff did not aggressively
pursue Penn State players this
summer when the NCAA lifted
traditional contact and transfer
rules after imposingsanctions on
the Nittany Lions.
Londondid, however, still hear
all about opposing schools set-
ting up camp in State College,
looking to recruit.
When it came out that the op-
portunity (to transfer without
penalty) was going to be extend-
ed to those players, I had heard
from other coaching friends that
they were on the next flight to
Happy Valley, London said.
And you hear the stories about
coaches walking around with
their school logos on, and it was
kind of like an open market.
We didnt try to make an ap-
proach that way. We saw other
people doing that, and also there
are all the issues with us as far as
transfers andthings like that. But
it was kind of you looked at it and
you felt bad for Coach OBrien.
Because here he is, just gets
there, finds out whats going on,
and players have a chance not on-
ly to leave at that time, but again
leave at the end of the season if
they dont go in and play.
SoImquite sure hes tryingto
put a game plan together and
kind of a program together to
keep these guys together, not on-
ly committed recruits for next
year, but also the guys on his
team.

As the newplay-caller for the
Lions, OBrien dialed up 48
passes and 22 runs against the
Bobcats. He said Tuesday that
was something hed like to
change going forward.
I thinkIve got todoa better
job there, OBrien said. I
think we need to be more bal-
anced. We can run the football.
Wevegot atoughoffensiveline
I think probably one of the
units that played the best on
Saturday was our offensive
line, if not the unit that didplay
the best.
Weve got to be more bal-
anced, and that starts with me.
Yeah, hindsight being 20/20,
Id like to say we would not
throw it 50 and run it 20. Wed
like to be more balanced.
OBrienis alsoreconsidering
his experiment withlinebacker
Gerald Hodges as a kick and
punt returner, conceding that
he was probably asking the se-
nior to do too much.
Yeah, probably. Probably
right, OBrien said. We put
himback there, and the reason
why (was that) he did an excel-
lent job in practice. Hes an ex-
cellent athlete, and he caught
every one of them in practice.
But its a lot on his plate,
and his main role is obviously
as our outside linebacker. He
might or might not be back
there this week, but there was a
lot onhis plate, andIll tell you,
I accept responsibility for that.
But well move forward and
well find some guys that can
return some punts.
Hodges handled three re-
turns in the opener but did not
return to the role after fum-
blingthelast of thoseattempts.
Run on for a long time
As he promised he would
back in July, OBrien has done
away with the term walk-on
at Penn State. Non-scholarship
players are nowreferred to as
wait for it run-ons.
These guys dont walk,
OBrien said. They run on the
field, they sprint on the field,
theybust their butt onthefield.
Theseguys arenot walk-ons, they
are run-ons.
With scholarship sanctions hit-
tingthe program, OBrienandhis
staff will need to rely more on
those run-ons in the coming
years.
Also gone is the term scout
team or foreign team, as Joe
Paterno typically called it. The
group of second- and third-team-
ers used to simulate the opposi-
tion in practice is now called
The Dirty Show, a term
OBriensaidheliftedfromhis for-
mer team, the New England Pa-
triots.
According to an ESPN story,
the name was coined by Patriots
assistant Pepper Johnson, who
encourages his scout-teamers to
celebrate big plays and generally
rub it in the face of the first-team-
ers. In other words, just have
some fun with it.
Those changes, while just
about semantics on the surface,
are designed to keep backups on
the team involved and in a good
mood, as the Lions still face the
threat of transfers until next Au-
gust because of the sanctions.
Nobody likes to be called for-
eign team or scout team or
walk-on, senior fullback Mike
Zordich said. It makes it seem
like they just came in and nobody
wanted them. Which is far from
the truth.
SHUFFLE
They were scheduled to re-
sume Wednesday as the second
match in Ashe, after four-time
major champion Maria Sharapo-
vas quarterfinal against 2007
Wimbledon runner-up Marion
Bartoli. That was halted Tuesday
with Bartoli ahead 4-0.
Other matches stopped in pro-
gress, also in the first set, includ-
ed defending champion Novak
Djokovic against No. 18 Stanislas
Wawrinka, and No. 8 Janko Tip-
sarevic against No. 19 Philipp
Kohlschreiber.
On a day of off-and-on action
because of intermittent showers,
only two singles matches were
completed: Top-seeded Victoria
Azarenka reached her first U.S.
Open semifinal by cobbling to-
gether a 6-1, 4-6, 7-6 (5) victory
over defending champion Sam
Stosur, and No. 4 David Ferrer re-
ached the quarterfinals by beat-
ing No. 13 Richard Gasquet 7-5,
7-6 (2), 6-4.
So, Victoria, what went
through your mind as your high-
tension, high-quality match
stretched into that third-set tie-
breaker?
Youdont want toknowwhat I
kept telling myself, Azarenka
deadpanned. I would have to
beep that, I think.
She went on to offer a cleaned-
up version of what her thoughts
had been Dont be a chicken
while assuring herself of re-
taining the No. 1 ranking no mat-
ter what happens the rest of this
week.
DefinitelyI dont want tostop.
I really want it bad, Azarenka
said about the prospect of adding
a second Grand Slam trophy to
the one she earned in January at
the Australian Open. Im going
to do absolutely everything I
have, you know, to give it all
here.
Her match, like most at Flush-
ing Meadows so far, took second
billing to one involving the 20th-
seeded Roddick, who surprising-
ly announced last week that this
tournament would be the last of
his career.
Since then, he picked up victo-
ries over players ranked 43rd and
59th, but the No. 7-seededdel Po-
tro figured to provide more of a
challenge. Del Potro is the only
man other than Roger Federer,
Rafael Nadal or Djokovic to win
any of the past 30 Grand Slam ti-
tles.
There were thousands of emp-
ty blue seats when Roddick and
del Potro took to the court, prob-
ably owing to the showers that
ledto about anhours delay at the
start of the marquee match. It
was hardly the full house of row-
dy, partisan fans that Roddick
might have hoped for.
More spectators filed in as
things progressed, andthosewho
were there certainly grabbed
each and every opportunity to
cheer for their man.
They even gave del Potro a bit
of a hard time when he had a cou-
ple of ball boys gowipe a wet spot
near the baseline with white tow-
els.
It was misty at the outset, and
the humidity topped 80 percent,
leaving both mens shirts sopped
with sweat.
Roddick came out the aggres-
sor, looking for any opportunity
toget tothe net, andthe volleyhe
smacked to end the third game
glanced off the 6-foot-6 del Po-
tros right shoulder.
Not much later, Roddick nosed
ahead, breaking for a 4-2 lead and
shaking his right fist vigorously
when del Potro flubbed a back-
hand into the net.
RODDICK
were lucky to get into the
playoffs with a 9-7 record.
They really didnt beat the
Packers or 49ers, they were
just handed the games. There
is a lot more, but that is the
gist.
That is now over.
The goal for Tom Cough-
lins players is to show they
have constructed that bridge
the 65-year-old coach urged
them to build to link their
late-season 6-0 run to the title
to the 2012 campaign.
Theleadershipwehaveon
this football team, thats go-
ing to be the spine of the
bridge, if you will, defensive
captain Justin Tuck said. I
think were in a good place as
far as where we want to be
coming into the game.
The Giants are confident,
and they dont care what out-
siders are saying about them.
Weve already showed
people who we are, safety
Antrel Rolle said. We can
care less about that. We leave
that up to spectators. Were
just going out there and play-
ing ball. And that is what it is
all about. We can care less
about what kind of recogni-
tion we are getting or who is
crowning us and who is not
crowning us. None of that
matters coming into the 2012
season.
Jerry Jones Cowboys face
a much different task after an
8-8 campaign that ended with
an embarrassing 31-14 loss to
the Giants onNewYears Day.
The outspoken owner, who
boasted to fans that his team
would kick the Giants post-
eriors in Dallas when the
clubs meet a second time this
season on Oct. 28, knows the
window for the aging Cow-
boys to return to the fran-
chises glory years is fading
fast.
Its a great opportunity for
us is how I look at it, Jones
said of the season opener. So
very meaningful. Everybody
has all the appreciation in the
world for what were up
against here, the quality of
the team, so to have success
up there would be very mea-
ningful.
As inany game inthe NFL,
its certainly not howyou ulti-
mately will wind up one way
or the other, but it is a big
game in front of really the en-
tire world of sports, high vis-
ible game against the world
champions.
Romo will again be under
the spotlight. He has yet to
lead the Boys to a title, and
manywonder whether hewill
after a late-season meltdown
in which Dallas lost four of its
final five games, including
two to the Giants.
I think they always stick
with you, Romo said of the
last game. Thats what fuels
you in the offseason and
makes you ... you want to re-
member those moments so
you can improve from them.
As a football team, weve tak-
en an approach that we need
to get better. I think weve
done that with the personnel
andour approachandthe way
the guys have been commit-
ted. Its been great to see.
Now its time to take it to the
field.
There are a couple of key
matchups to watch.
Manning and receivers Vic-
tor Cruz and Hakeem Nicks
combined for 14 receptions
for 237 yards in New Yorks
37-34wininDallas onDec. 11,
and they had11 more catches
for 254 yards and two touch-
downs in the division-decid-
ing game.
In the offseason, the Cow-
boys signed former Chiefs
cornerbackBrandonCarr as a
free agent and moved up
eight spots in the first round
of the draft to take another
cornerback, Morris Clai-
borne of LSU.
The key to the Giants suc-
cess in the postseason was
the ability of the defensive
line to pressure quarterbacks.
The assault will again be led
by All Pro Jason Pierre-Paul,
Tuck and fellowtwo-time Pro
Bowler Osi Umenyiora.
CHAMPIONS
Apple hints at iPhone 5
Apple Inc. on Tuesday invited report-
ers to a news conference next week in
San Francisco with a message that
suggests that it will reveal the iPhone
5, as expected.
The email invitation shows a big
12, for Sept. 12, casting a shadow in
the shape of a 5.
Various unconfirmed reports have
pointed to Sept. 12 as being the day
Apple Inc. shows off the new phone,
which is expected to go on sale a week
or two later.
The next iPhone is expected to have
a taller screen and the ability to access
the latest wireless data networks in the
U.S.
Call for prosecutions
Phil Angelides, who chaired the
government commission that investi-
gated the financial crisis, said Tuesday
the Justice Department should pursue
more criminal cases against Wall Street
executives to restore the faith of aver-
age Americans in U.S. markets.
Deterring future crimes cant be
accomplished simply through fines or
negotiated financial settlements --
which many banks regard as the cost of
doing business, Angelides said. Se-
nior executives need to know that if
they violate the law, there will be real
consequences.
USW deal contains raises
The tentative agreement between
U.S. Steel and about 16,000 members of
the United Steelworkers union calls for
4.5 percent in pay increases over the
life of the three-year proposal and no
change in health care benefits for work-
ers.
Summaries of the proposal posted on
several Facebook pages of USW locals
outline a 2 percent pay increase next
Sept. 1 and a 2.5 percent increase Jan.
1, 2015. Workers would also get a
$2,000 signing bonus Oct. 15 and an-
other $500 bonus April 1, 2014.
Layaway charges cut
Wal-Mart Stores Inc. is lowering its
fee that shoppers pay for its interest-
free pay-over-time program for the
winter holidays.
The fee to open up a layaway ac-
count will now be $5 instead of $15, the
worlds largest retailer said Tuesday.
The announcement comes a day
after Toys R US announced it was waiv-
ing the upfront service fee for layaway
orders created in store from Sept. 4
through Oct. 31.

sales last month.
GMs August U.S. sales rose 10
percent comparedwithayearearli-
er, while Fords rose13percent and
Chryslers14percent.
Most automakers reported
strong gains as Americans flowed
into dealer showrooms, drawn by
model-year closeouts, low-interest
financing and appealing newmod-
els. Analysts expectedoverall sales
to rise around 20 percent. The an-
nual pace could reach14.6 million
units, among the best months of
the year.
Pickups, traditionally the top
sellers in the U.S., drove much of
the business, thanks to a recover-
inghousingmarket. Sales of Fords
F-Series trucks rose 19 percent,
while Chryslers Ram jumped by
the same. GMs pickups, the Chev-
rolet Silverado and GMC Sierra,

ket, sawa 6-percent sales increase.

WILKES-BARRE Year-over-year home sale prices
excluding distressed sales rose 7.5 percent in July in
the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton area, more than twice the
national pace and the second consecutive month of
strong increases. Comparable sale prices nationally
shot up 4.3 percent in July, their largest leap since
2006, accordingtoreal estate data provider CoreLogic.
When sales made in foreclosure or otherwise forced
to market are included, local prices fell 0.6 percent
compared to July 2011. That was far worse than the na-
tional increase of 3.8 percent with distressed sales in-
cluded.
Foreclosures have been rising steadily in the market
made up of Luzerne, Lackawanna and Wyoming coun-
ties. They stood at 3.67 percent of mortgages in Au-
gust, above the national rate for the sixth consecutive
month. Ninety-day delinquencies, a predictor of future
foreclosures, stood at 6.77 percent in August.
In June, local sale prices excluding distressed sales
rose 8 percent, CoreLogic said. With distressed sales
included the increase was 4.3 percent.
The national gain marks the fifth straight rise in the
gauge, part of a positive swing after a year and a half of
slumps. The last time prices rose so much was in Au-
gust 2006, when they jumped 4.1 percent.
The report, coming as a glut of house-hunters clam-
or after a shrinking inventory, suggests the real estate
market is "clearly seeing the light at the end of a very
long tunnel," said CoreLogic Chief Executive Anand
Nallathambi in a statement.
Still, the housing markets recovery is just begin-
ning. Prices remain 27 percent below their peak in
April 2006, CoreLogic said.
Arizona led the country in price appreciation with a
16.6 percent surge, followed by Idaho, Utah, South Da-
kota and Colorado. Delawares 4.8 percent plunge was
the deepest drop-off in prices, with Alabama, Rhode
Island, Connecticut and Illinois also suffering major
slips.
Housing, thoughseemingly ina recovery, is still sha-
ky, according to other data. Consumer confidence is
up, helping to push pending home sales to a two-year
high, but the job market and the overall economy con-
tinue to lag.
Home sales

Adding foreclosed/forced sales, however, results
in 0.6 % drop compared to July 2011.

The checks are being sent to seniors
who paid significantly more than they
should have for drugs used to treat epi-
lepsy and symptoms of breast cancer,
among other illnesses, and who were
forcedintotheso-calleddonut holeasa
result of the payments. The donut hole
is a gap in government insurance cover-
age in which no drug costs are reim-
bursed.
The FTC said the seniors chose their
prescription drug plans based on incor-
rect listings of prices for the drugs. The
agency said RxAmerica, which is now a
unit of CVS, submitted incorrect prices
for the drugs and many Medicare Part D
beneficiaries chose RxAmericas cover-
age plans based on those listed prices.
CVS Caremark agreed to pay $5 mil-
lioninJanuary toresolve the allegations.
The inaccurate prices were listed from
2007 through at least November 2008.
CVSbought RxAmerica inOctober 2008
whenit acquiredthe Longs Drugs Stores
chain.
Consumers who have questions about
the settlement can call a toll-free FTC
hotline at 1-888-773-8392.

later this morn-

behind enough
rain in many
places to put a
sizeable dent in
the rainfall
decit. A wind
shift later today
will help to pro-
mote clearing

tonight. But con-

the formation of
dense fog. Our

ing very sunny

Friday. This one

nearby, allowing
a wave of low

will no doubt
bring a huge risk
for some rain,
not only on
Saturday but on
Sunday as well.
- Tom Clark
NATIONAL FORECAST: The remnants of Isaac and a passing cold front will combine to trigger numer-
ous showers and thunderstorms along the Eastern Seaboard today, with locally heavy rainfall possi-
ble. Showers and thunderstorms will also extend along a frontal boundary from the
Mid-Mississippi Valley into the Upper Midwest. Some of these storms may be strong to severe.

AUTUMN IS
approaching
and so is the
end of our
warm days. Its
time to cook
with some
classic fall
vegetables such as squash and
eggplant. One of my favorite
dishes to prepare during the
cool autumn days is ratatouille.
Its a dish that can be served as
side or a dinner.
I like to serve ratatouille with
fish, such as haddock, on top
and accompanied by a fresh
herb salad. The salad enhances
the dish by recollecting the
joyful thoughts of summer,
while the haddock and rata-
touille warm the body. The
delicate touch of oil and vinegar
is light enough so you can savor
the taste of this meal.
RATATOUILLE AND HADDOCK

1 pound haddock, cut into two
pieces
1/2 onion, thinly sliced
1 eggplant, thinly sliced
1/2 zucchini, thinly sliced
1/2 yellow squash, thinly sliced
1 tomato, thinly sliced
1/2 red pepper, seeded and diced
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
Optional balsamic glaze
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1 tablespoon butter, cut into
pieces
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 sprigs of fresh thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
FRESH HERB SALAD
Small bunch of fresh basil
Small bunch of fresh chives, cut
sticks 1/2 inch
Small bunch of parsley
Small bunch of fresh dill
Small bunch of celery leaves
Small bunch of cilantro
1 teaspoon white balsamic vine-
gar
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400
Cover a baking sheet or baking
pan with parchment paper leaving
some a few inches of slack on both
sides. Layer the vegetables by
alternating each one. Alternate
either in a straight line, across, or
even in a circular pattern. Drizzle
balsamic vinegar over vegetables
and top with one clove garlic along
with salt and pepper. Place had-
dock on top and drizzle with extra
virgin olive oil, thyme, one clove
garlic, red pepper, butter, salt and
pepper. Bring parchment paper to
center and fold down. Crimp ends
and twist to keep food inside. Place
in oven for 20 minutes or until
flaky.
For the fresh salad, mix the
herbs and top with white balsamic
vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, salt
and pepper. Put on top of haddock
and garnish with a drizzle of bal-
samic glaze, which can be made by
reducing balsamic vinegar to about
one quarter of its original volume.

Chef Thomas Cook from the
Ramada Inn prepared this rata-
touille haddock with fresh herb
salad.
Plump fist-size tomatoes may
be the stars of BLTs and Caprese
salads, sauces and soups. But
their wee cousins canbe a cooks
best friend as well.
Whether theyre Sun Golds or
Tumbling Toms or heirlooms
named yellow pear or black
plum, cherry tomatoes can play
multiple roles beyond the salad
bowl. Stuff with herbed goat
cheese for a quick appetizer.
Saute with garlic and herbs in a
sizzling skillet until their skins
pop, then toss with pasta.
Totake themupa notch, slow-
roast them.
Chris Nugent, executive chef
at Chicagos Goosefoot, roasts
heirlooms before turning them
into a richly flavored soup.
Chef and cookbook author
Antony Worrall Thompson toss-
es roasted cherry tomatoes with
pasta and he pairs them with
fish. Sacrifice some time in the
name of simplicity, he writes in
The Essential Low Fat Cook-
book: Good Healthy Eating for
Every Day (Kyle Books, $35),
because the roasting process
really intensifies the tomato fla-
vor.
That concentrated and cara-
melized flavor is one reason edi-
tors at Fine Cooking magazine
suggest slow-roasting tomatoes
in their book Fine Cooking In
Season: Your Guide to Choosing
and Preparing the Seasons
Best. (It) is so easy and yields
such delicious results that youll
soon add it to your repertoire.
Calling them a secret ingre-
dient, they add them to pastas,
sandwiches and salads or serve
them alongside grilled meats.
They suggest storing roasted to-
matoes for a weekinthe refriger-
ator; longer in the freezer. And if
theres any extra roasting oil,
drizzleit ongrilledvegetables or
crusty bread.

T
omatoes are summers glamour crop,
round, red and ripe. But though zucchini
will never get as many magazine covers,
real cooks knowyoucant beat it for versa-
tility. If you have a perfectly ripened back-
yard tomato, there are only a few things you should do
with it (yes, admittedly, all of themare delicious). But if
you have a bag of zucchini, well, the sky is the limit.
Here are some quick ideas.
1. Bulgur salad with arugula, zucchini and pine nuts:
Salt zucchini and set aside until soft. Rinse, pat dry
and combine with toasted soaked bulgur and minced
red onion, dress with olive oil and lemon juice and at
the last minute add torn arugula leaves and toasted
pine nuts.
2. Ratatouille: Saute onions in olive oil until
theyre tender and transfer them to a big pot.
Saute zucchini until tender and add that to the
pot. Saute eggplant until tender and add that to
the pot. Add peeled, seeded, diced tomatoes and
redwine vinegar andcookuntil they thicken. Add
them to the pot and heat everything through to
combine flavors.
3. Zucchini-basil frittata: Sauteslicedonionand
shredded zucchini in a nonstick skillet until the
zucchini is nolonger moist. Stir themixtureintoa
bowl of beaten eggs along with grated Parmesan
cheese and torn basil leaves. Return the mixture
to the skillet and cook, stirring, until the egg mix-
ture sets like soft scrambledeggs. Runthe panun-
der a broiler just until it browns on top.
4. Zuni Cafe zucchini pickles: Slice the zucchini
about 1/16 of an inch thick. Combine in a bowl
with a sliced onion and salt generously. Cover
with ice water and set aside until the zucchini is
softened, about 1 hour. Rinse and pat dry. Com-
bine vinegar, sugar, dry mustard, mustard seeds
and turmeric in a small saucepan and simmer for
3 minutes. Set aside until just warmto the touch.
Pour the brine mixture over the zucchini, transfer
to jars, seal tightly and refrigerate for at least a
day.
5. Braised zucchini with mint and lemon:
Braise the zucchini in olive oil with chopped on-
ion, garlic, lemon zest and mint. When you re-
move the lid and turn the heat up to high, add
more lemon juice and cook until the liquid is re-
ducedtoasyrup. Cool towarmroomtemperature
and stir in more mint and toasted pine nuts.
6. Zucchini and pine nut salad: This is another
very simple (and delicious) adaptation of a basic
technique. Salt zucchini as inthebulgur saladand
combine it with minced red onion and pine nuts
and dress with olive oil and lemon juice. Stir in
shredded basil just before serving.
7. Zucchini in agrodolce: Cut the zucchini into
large pieces. Heat olive oil anda whole peeledgar-
lic clove until the garlic begins to brown. Add the
cut-up zucchini and cook until the zucchini be-
gins to brown, add white vinegar, sugar, toasted
pine nuts, softened golden raisins and a chopped
anchovy fillet and cook until the liquid reduces to
a syrup. Remove from the heat, stir in chopped
mint and season to taste with salt and black pep-

ROASTING
If you dont have cherry toma-
toes, roast plum tomatoes with
this recipe adapted from Fine
Cooking Magazines Fine Cook-
ing In Season.
ROASTED PLUM
TOMATOES
Halve through the stem end and
seed 4 1/2 to 5 pounds plum toma-
toes. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
Line a 12-by-17-inch rimmed baking
sheet with foil (then parchment if
you have it). Coat pan with 3 ta-
blespoons olive oil. Arrange halves,
cut side up, turning to coat bot-
toms with some oil. Sprinkle spar-
ingly with kosher salt, sugar and
scant 1 tablespoon balsamic vine-
gar. Thinly slice 3 to 4 garlic cloves;
arrange slices over tomatoes.
Sprinkle with fresh thyme. Pour 1
cup olive oil over all. Roast in cen-
ter of oven until tomatoes are dark
reddish brown, with deep browning
on edges. Cool. Serve warm or at
room temperature. Store in refrig-
erator up to a week or in a freezer
bag up to a month.
ROASTED HEIRLOOM CHERRY

TOMATO SOUP
Prep: 20 minutes
Cook: 1 hour
Servings: 6 (2 cups each)
Note: Adapted from a recipe by
Chris Nugent, executive chef at
Goosefoot restaurant in Chicago.
Nugent suggests passing the
blended soup through a fine strain-
er; we omitted that step because
we enjoyed the pureed texture.
Nugent calls for a total of 1 cup
olive oil in the recipe; weve cut
that amount back considerably. For
roasting, drizzle the vegetables
with more olive oil if you like.
Ingredients:
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 Spanish onions, peeled, halved
4 pounds ripe heirloom cherry
tomatoes, about 6 pints
6 cloves garlic
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
8 cups chicken or vegetable
stock
6 ounces goat cheese
1 ounce aged balsamic vinegar
1. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat

2 tablespoons olive oil in a large,
heavy-bottomed skillet over medi-
um heat. Place onion halves cut-
side down in skillet; cook until
caramelized, 4 minutes on each
side. Set aside 1/4 pound tomatoes
(about 3/4 cup) for garnish. Place
remaining tomatoes, the cara-
melized onions and garlic on 2
rimmed baking sheets; drizzle with
remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil,
or more as needed. Season with 1/2
teaspoon salt and pepper to taste.
Roast in the oven, 30 minutes.
2. Place roasted tomatoes, on-
ions, garlic, basil and chicken or
vegetable stock in a large, heavy-
bottomed saucepan; simmer, stir-
ring occasionally, 30 minutes.
Puree soup in a blender, in batches
if necessary. Season with remain-
ing 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to
taste. Cut reserved cherry toma-
toes in half. Serve in warm soup
bowls garnished with goat cheese,
halved cherry tomatoes and a
balsamic vinegar drizzle.

per. This can be served either
warm or cold.
8. Calabacitas con crema:
Cut an onion into thick slices
and cook slowly until golden.
Add sliced garlic, shredded
roasted, peeled, seeded pobla-
no and zucchini cut into thick
slabs and cook, covered, until
the zucchini is tender. Add
Mexican crema, increase the
heat to medium, and cook until
thickened. Just before serving,
stir in chopped cilantro.
9. Garlic and herb-stuffed
zucchini: Make a flavorful
tomato sauce. Cut zucchini in
half lengthwise and use a mel-
on baller to carefully remove
enough of the flesh from the
center to make a boat. Season
lightly with salt and steam
until tender. Grind fresh bread
to crumbs in a food processor
with basil and garlic. Pour into
a bowl and stir in chopped
anchovies and toasted pine
nuts. Pour the tomato sauce
into a lightly oiled gratin dish
and spoon the breadcrumb
mixture into the zucchini,
mounding it slightly on top.
Drizzle with olive oil and bake
until the tops of the bread-
crumbs are browned. Serve hot
or at room temperature.
ZUCCHINI FRITTERS
Total time: 30 minutes, plus
draining time for the shredded
zucchini
Servings: Makes 8 fritters
1 pound zucchini
Salt
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
1 green onion, chopped, green
part only
1/2 to 3/4 teaspoon minced
jalapeno
2 tablespoons flour
1 egg, beaten
Olive oil
Greek-style yogurt
1. Shred the zucchini and put it
in a colander. Sprinkle generously
with salt, mix well and set aside
for at least 30 minutes to drain.
Toast the cumin and coriander
seeds in a small dry skillet over
medium heat until they begin to
pop and smell fragrant. Grind in a
spice grinder or mortar and pes-
tle.
2. Rinse the shredded zucchini
under cold running water. Pick up
a small handful, squeeze it dry
and put it in the center of a linen
dish towel. When youve squeezed
all the zucchini by hand, gather
the dish towel around the zucchini
and twist, wringing out as much
liquid as you can. The more liquid
you remove, the lighter the fritter
will be.
3. Put the zucchini in a bowl
and add the green onion, jalape-
no, cumin and coriander and stir
to mix well. Stir in the flour and
then the beaten egg. The mixture
should be sticky, but there
shouldnt be any free liquid. If
there is, stir in a little more flour.
4. Pour olive oil into a nonstick
skillet to a depth of about one-
fourth inch (itll take about one-
fourth cup) and heat it over medi-
um-high heat. When the oil is hot
enough that a little bit of zucchini
sizzles immediately, drop 4 (2 to 3
tablespoon) mounds of the batter
into the pan, flattening them
slightly with the back of a spoon.
5. Fry until golden brown on
one side, 3 to 4 minutes, then
gently flip and fry until golden
brown on the other side, 2 to 3
minutes. Remove to a paper
towel-lined plate and gently pat
away any excess oil.
6. Serve immediately, with a
dollop of thick Greek yogurt.

WOVEN ZUCCHINI WITH

FRESH GOAT CHEESE
Total time: 20 minutes, plus
draining time for the zucchini
Servings: 4
3 to 4 (6- to 7-inch) zucchini
Salt
Olive oil
1/2 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon lemon juice
10 to 12 cherry tomatoes
8 ounces fresh goat cheese
1 teaspoon dried oregano (pref-
erably Sicilian)
6 leaves fresh basil
1. Trim the ends of the zucchini
to make them a uniform length.
Slice them lengthwise as thin as
you can, about one-eighth inch
(this is most easily done with a
mandoline, but if youre careful, a
very sharp knife also will work).
You should have at least 24 thin
strips of zucchini.
2. Place the zucchini in a bowl,
salt generously and toss to coat,
then transfer to a colander and
set aside until the zucchini have
softened, at least 30 minutes.
3. While the zucchini are sitting,
whisk together 3 tablespoons
olive oil, the minced garlic and
lemon juice and season with a
pinch of salt. Cut the cherry to-
matoes in half and season lightly
with salt.
4. Rinse the zucchini slices
under cold running water, then
pat dry with a paper towel. Return
to the bowl and season with just
enough of the olive oil-lemon
mixture to moisten lightly.
5. Weaving the zucchini may
sound complicated (as with weav-
ing a lattice-top pie), but it is not
difficult at all. Youll need 6 strips
of squash for each plate. Arrange
three strips of zucchini side-by-
side on the first plate. Lift the
middle strip and place one strip of
zucchini perpendicular to the
other strips and over the two
outer strips, making an H. Un-
fold the middle strip over the
perpendicular strip. Fold back the
two end pieces on one side and
lay another perpendicular strip,
then unfold the end pieces. Re-
peat at the other end, then use
your fingers to gently push the
pieces together to make a tightly
woven mat of zucchini. Repeat for
the three remaining plates.
6. Place the fresh goat cheese
in a bowl and stir in the dried
oregano and the remainder of the
olive oil-lemon mixture to make a
smooth, creamy mixture. If neces-
sary, add a little more olive oil.
7. Divide the goat-cheese mix-
ture evenly among the four
plates, spooning it in the center of
the zucchini mat. Scatter the
cherry tomato halves around the
outside. Drizzle lightly with a little
more good olive oil and sprinkle
with coarse salt. Tear the basil
leaves into small pieces and scat-
ter over top. Serve at room tem-
perature.
Each serving: 336 calories; 15
grams protein; 9 grams carbo-
hydrates; 2 grams fiber; 28 grams
fat; 13 grams saturated fat; 45 mg
cholesterol; 7 grams sugar; 599
mg sodium.

Dear Abby: PO Box 69440, Los Ange-
les, CA 90069
For more Sudoku go to www.timesleader.com
O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: My
moms boyfriend
wants to spend time
with my 16-year-old
sister and take her
places all the time.
He wants to cuddle
with us whenever we
sit on the couch and gets upset when
we dont want to. Hes my biological
father, but I have known him only for
a year because he left my mom when
she was pregnant with me.
Now he wants to play dad when
I already have had a dad all my life.
(Mom was married for 11 years to
another man.) Im 14.
He yells and swears all the time
and takes things away from us if
we dont do what he wants. He
isnt physically abusive yet, but the
cuddling freaks me out and I dont
think its right. I told my school coun-
selor. She said it wasnt a big deal.
Abby, what can I do? Mom has
problems with depression and real-
ity and wont listen to us. Help us,
please. Where can I go?
Helpless in the Midwest
Dear Helpless: Because your fathers
overtures make you uncomfortable,
and he punishes you if you dont
accept them it IS a big deal. Call
Childhelp and describe whats hap-
pening. The toll-free number is 800-
422-4453. The person who answers
the phone can refer you to help in
your state. Please dont wait. Your
safety and that of your sister could
depend on it.
Dear Abby: I am romantically at-
tracted to a girl, Jade. We have
known each other ever since we were
in diapers. We flirted with puppy love
about 10 years ago, but it never went
beyond writing love letters and ended
quickly. It was so brief that I have
never regarded it as a true relation-
ship. I consider her my first love.
Jade goes through boyfriends like a
chain-smoker goes through cigarettes.
Her mother is the same way and nev-
er found a good father figure for Jade.
The men her mother dated were abu-
sive. Consequently, Jade isnt the best
judge of men, either.
My parents have suggested that she
may view me as a friend because Im
the only decent guy in her life, and
shes afraid we wouldnt be friends
if our romantic relationship ended.
I want to tell her that Id like to date
her the next time her current rela-
tionship ends. At the same time, I
want her to know Id rather have her
as a friend than nothing at all. Thanks
to the wonder of social media, I will
know when her next relationship
ends. Should I wait till then? If not,
how long?
First Love in the South
Dear First Love: You seem to have
a lot of insight about Jade. Because
she was raised by a mother who was
involved in one abusive relationship
after another, she may feel that unless
there is pain and drama, that what
shes experiencing is boring and not
really love. Until she realizes that
the criteria shes using in choosing
men are flawed, and is willing to get
help to straighten out her thinking,
her pattern will continue.
As you hover over your keyboard
waiting for news of her next roman-
tic failure, I suggest that rather than
pounce, you keep her as a friend
until shes ready for a mature relation-
ship. If you dont, you will only suffer
more disappointment.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Fathers idea of cuddling with teen daughters is too close for comfort
To receive a collection of Abbys most memo-
rable and most frequently requested po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abbys Keepers, P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). Your
extra energy will kick in mid-
morning, and youll keep moving
quickly through the day. There
are things you shouldnt do fast,
though. Talking is one of them.
Youll get more respect using
your calm, slow voice.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). Youll
choose upbeat partners. They
may have the wrong answers
from time to time, but because
they have the right attitude,
they will be quick to make
corrections.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). The deep
part of your brain that contains
a storytelling instinct will be acti-
vated. Youll be driven to share,
and youll hone the finer details
of your narrative.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Resist
checking in with others to see
whether youre on the right path.
When youre sure within yourself,
its the right path. Certainty will
open doors.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). Someone
will try to form an alliance with
you. Youre not about to join a
cause you dont believe in. Also,
you just dont like it when people
try to pick a fight for you.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). How you
come across will be more impor-
tant than what you say. Speak as
though youre making complete
sense even when youre not sure
its really the case.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23).
Everything aligns to remind
you that people are important
more important than things,
position, power or money. When
you make the choice that sup-
ports people, you choose your
own soul.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Youve
done your homework, but you
wouldnt mind a second opinion.
Be careful to ask for insight in a
way that lets the other person
know that you dont want to be
micromanaged, but you value an
objective viewpoint.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
You want to give. But if you dont
take care of yourself first, youll
get into trouble. Youll be as
generous as you can possibly be
while still maintaining enough of
your own time and resources to
get your work done.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You
have a way of making people
feel safe. New people will be
attracted to you as you demon-
strate your strength. It comes in
many forms: intellectual, physical
and emotional.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Enforce clear lines between your
work and your personal life.
Increased structure will be good
for all. By your example, others
will understand that the work-
place is for work and not for
personal sharing.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). If you
want to be a leader, assume
leadership. It wont be necessary
to ask for it, and doing so will
only cause hesitation and doubt.
Swoop in and start taking care of
business.
TODAYS BIRTHDAY (Sept. 5).
You are more convicted in
your beliefs than ever and
determined to make a difference.
The next seven weeks clear
the obstacles to deeper love.
Youll pick up a new skill in
October. Your lucky numbers are:
5, 25, 49, 14 and 18.
